The Weekdays: Our Prophet, Our Teacher & Fiqh of Purity & Prayer

Another week in Dallas — and yes, the heat is still holding us hostage. Between school runs and the everyday grind, the weekdays can feel like a blur. But they’re also a chance to bring a little rhythm, purpose, and blessing into our routines. That’s where Hilalz Dallas slides in: a dose of local updates, events, and reminders to carry you through the week.

REFELECTION

One Small Act
The Prophet ﷺ said: “The most beloved of deeds to Allah are those that are consistent, even if they are small.” (Bukhari, Muslim). Weekdays can feel repetitive, but that’s exactly where consistency shines. A small daily act — a few ayahs, an extra sunnah prayer, or even a kind word — builds up to something far greater.

Do: Pick one small act to carry with you through this week. Make it your weekday anchor, and let it quietly accumulate in your book of deeds.
