MH Weekly 19: GMW, Tarteel, Vela,

👋🏼 Muslim Hub Weekly

Salams friends,

It’s been a while, hasn’t it? We’ve been working behind the scenes at Muslim Hub; adding tons of new products, and have completely revamped our Category system.

There’s also a new feature we’ll be releasing soon, that’ll make it even easier to find the products you need & want 👀.

With that said, let’s get back to our regularly scheduled programming, where I put you on to what’s best & brightest in the Islamic economy.

👀 In this newsletter 👀

🧕🏽Vela restock 🚨

The watercolor floral hijab that took TikTok by storm is back in stock.

The chic, very demure scarf has been harder to find than a parking spot at Jummah, turning mild-mannered hijabis into CIA operatives.

Vela specializes in high-quality & fashion-forward scarves, along with all the accessories you'll need like undercaps and magnets. They’ve also just released a spray to remove wrinkles from your scarves.

Get the watercolor floral scarf before it runs out of stock, or check out other stores on Muslim Hub!

🛍️ straight from the souq

Since our newsletter break, we've added many new products and will keep introducing more each week. Here are a few of my favorites from this week:

  1. Manzil: halal mortgages for Canadians, now with an all-new investing app.

  2. Our Place: multi-functional & aesthetic cookware, without chemicals.

  3. Masjidal: a modern athan clock

  4. Lena: water-permeable/wudhu-friendly nail polish.

  5. Koffiyeh: specialty grade coffee with a cause—100% of profits go to Palestine.

🖥️ open source tools from Tarteel

Last month, Tarteel along with other partners released the Quranic Universal Library — a hub of essential digital Quran resources, allowing technologists to go from idea to impact much faster.

Whether you're building apps, digital tools, or projects, QUL provides access to Qur’an texts, translations, recitations, and a suite of tools to make your development journey faster and easier.

What this enables is far more than just “another Quran app”. I think we are just at the verge of leveraging computational methods to extract insights from, and increase our understanding of, the Book of Allah ﷻ — and I can’t wait to see what tools people develop using this library.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

مَنْ قَاتَلَ لِتَكُونَ كَلِمَةُ اللَّهِ هِيَ الْعُلْيَا فَهُوَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّه

“The one who fights to raise the Word of Allah is striving in Allah’s Cause.”

Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 123

✈️ GMW Summit in Qatar

Winter is coming (RIP Ned Stark), and with it, the onset of seasonal blues.

Why not rejuvenate with a week in Doha, to learn & connect with some of the brightest Muslim minds?

first day you’ll pray Maghrib at the Katara Masjid!

The Summit experience is unlike any other Muslim event.

  • You’ll get to hear transformative keynotes from renowned speakers such as Sami Hamdi & Shaykha Rania Awaad.

  • There’ll also be interactive sessions where you get to learn hands-on from the founders of successful Muslim-led companies, such as Haute Hijab.

  • All while you forge new, lasting connections with like-minded people in the vibrant backdrop of Doha — an example of what a modern, Muslim city could look like.

The GMW Summit is right around the corner (November 24-28) and this is your last call to get tickets before they sell out!
