People out there don\u2019t look how you dressed. Anyone can wear a scarf, anyone can wear a dress, you don\u2019t know exactly who\u2019s who in the zoo. But what people can get when they see a Muslim is how you made them feel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Muallimah Karrim says people should control their tongue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSpeak good things only. It doesn\u2019t matter who you are speaking to, a white, a black, Indian, Asian, who you are dealing with. Your job is to look after what you say. So always take care of the things that come out of you because\u00a0 it\u2019s a reflection of who you are, of your soul and how your mind works. It\u2019s so important that when you are out there in the world that that\u2019s what you representing your true self and\u00a0 a kind self.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Muallimah Karrim says the world is already a difficult place and urged people to be the change to make a better world for themselves and all around them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Listen to the discussion &#8220;Holding ones tongue&#8221; with Sister Zeenat and Muallimah Karrim<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Muallimah Taskeen Karim speaks about one&#039;s tongue by Radio Islam International\" width=\"1080\" height=\"400\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?visual=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F938583988&#038;show_artwork=true&#038;maxwidth=1080&#038;maxheight=1000&#038;dnt=1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Faizel Patel \u2013 30\/11\/2020 (Twitter: @FaizelPatel143) Respected Aalima and life coach Muallimah Taskeen Karrim has urged people to be kind to others as this was the trait of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
