Seeking Knowledge: A Muslim’s Lifelong Path (and Yoga’s Role)

As these blessed days unfold, may your fasting refine your focus and your worship deepen your peace—one sincere moment at a time.

Quote: “Seeking knowledge is a duty upon every Muslim…” (Sunan Ibn Majah 224)

Islam is a religion of growth: learning that transforms character and draws you nearer to Allah.

How yoga helps you embody this teaching

With Islamic boundaries and intention, yoga can support learning about the amanah of the body, the patterns of stress, and the skills of regulation and presence. This can make worship steadier: less reactive, more grounded, more compassionate—especially for those carrying anxiety or trauma in the nervous system.
