- On October 25, 2021 my husband and I moved with our 8 children from The United States of America to Gambia, Africa! We made this move without a backup plan! We are an African American family moving back to Africa. Going back home to Africa is a dream come true for our family. We'd like to share this journey with other families who would like to know what life is life moving to Africa from America.

“I moved from the West for us to save our souls.” 👏
May Allah bless you and your family abundantly - Aameen
Ameen🤲🏾❤❤
Allahuma Ameen ❤🤲🏼
I feel exactly the way you feel. I have no intention of raising my family in the USA with all this homosexuality being spread around. I am from senegal but I want to move to Gambia inshallah
That’s true
I need your number
Good luck on your journey, may Allah make it easy for you.
Most people are not gonna get it, but we do ... we totally understand you Aminah. You've made a very wise decision and Allah SWT will see you through. You have a very lovely family. May Allah Bless Y'All.
One of the reasons we are moving to the 🇬🇲, in shaa Allaah .This really hits close to home. I have 6 children, 4 grown and 2 younger 11& 2. So, I understand entirely. May Allaah protect your family, Aameen.💗
Assalamualaykum, may Allah protect your family and bless you all with goodness always. Ameen. Thank you for watching.
Where are you from sister?

@PeaceOfMind Okay Alhamdulilah, I was wondering if you were in the US.
Ameen
May Allah swt accept it from you sis and guide your children and make them sincere believers ........deen always has to come first in shaa Allah
Ameen, Jazakallahukhair! Thank you for watching.
Amin Ya Hayyu Ya Qayyum, may accept it from you and continue to guide us to the right path of Islam.
Amiin yaa Rabi 🙏
Great mom from what I see so far, those kids are just finding themselves for now, plus that frontal lobe is still developing.
I know it well because in my teenage years, I made stupid/rebellious decisions. Keep up what you feel is right for your cubs & peace of mind of your family .
My inspiration for returning home to Africa/ Liberia is high...thx to people like you.
Enjoy Africa...enjoy The Gambia!
Subhan Allah! This really hit home. I worry so much about my kids also. May Allah continue to bless you on your hijra journey
Ameen, May Allah bless you with goodness! 💝💝
Allahumma baarik sister. May Allah protect you and your familie. I'm born and raised in Europe and moved to Morocco 8 years ago. Best choice in my life wal hamdulilah. Be patiënt, cling to Tawheed and Sunnah and keep your eyes on the price. We will wake up from this life very soon...
"We will wake up from this life very soon" gave me chills! Subhanallah
We are Hebrew and feel the same! It’s not about those temporary things but the everlasting! You have just reminded me of my why for moving there to begin with. Thank you!
Thank you for watching sis!💕
The Ancient Hebrews were ISLAM, please know I am absolutely not talking about the modern day Religion,
Ancient ISLAM is a WAY of Life -
I
Submit to the
Law (Towrah) of
ALLAH' (ALLUAH is the Hebraic term) MOST HIGH = ISLAM
Shalom Aleichem / A'salaam Aleikum
@Michael Smith As Alykum brother! Let me simply state this - Judaism and Islam were NEVER religious facades they were a WAY OF LIFE - modesty and piety under the guidance of Torah/Tawrah. Our enemies created these Religious FACTIONS in an effort to divide and conquer the seed of Ibrahim.
Surah 17:2
[17.2] And We gave Musa the Book and made it a guidance to the children of Israel, saying: Do not take a protector besides Me;
[17.3] The offspring of those whom We bore with Nuh (NOAH); surely he was a grateful servant.
[17.4] And We had made known to the children of Israel in the Book: Most certainly you will make mischief in the land twice, and most certainly you will behave insolently with great insolence.
[17.5] So when the promise for the first of the two came (Issa and Muhammed), We sent over you Our servants, of mighty prowess, so they went to and fro among the houses, and it was a promise to be accomplished.
Both Issa and Muhammad were Hebrews direct descendants from the lineage of Ibrahim and BOTH lived a certain lifestyle and NEVER followed a Religion, if anything they spoke against it and were targets. To this day MANY are under a Religious Banner verses simply LIVING A LIFE OF PIETY and Modesty keeping Tawrah (covenant of grace and forgiveness) to gain the eternal.
See a lot of somali people doing this too, moving from the west to Turkey 🇹🇷 ect. may allah bless you with everything your heart desires 😘
Ameen🤲🏾 May Allah bless you with the same! Thank you for your support😘🤗.
Why Turkey Turkey is not different the US for sure
I wish they took their resources and skills and went back to Somalia 🇸🇴 😕 😔 we need it!
@@nasreenwhatdowedohavali1425 This is interesting? Does Turkey support small children changing their sex? I'm so curious. Can you please explain more? I know its not 100% Sharia, but as bad as the USA, 😨 huh? That's so scary? Ya Allah! I'm always here to learn different perspectives. You have my attention. Sukran
I'm so happy for you.
I am Egyptian
I agree with my opinion
Well done.
The most important thing is Islam my sister
God bless you
You are a great Muslim mother, we ask God the almighty to be with you.
i feel like you are the kind of person i can listen to for hours i wouldn't be bored

Masha Allah, what a intelligent sister ♥️
❤❤ Thank you for watching sis!

Shukran Jazak’Allah khair sister for these videos! I look for to your videos because they are so useful to me as my husband and I are in talks about migrating to the motherland. Can you please touch on Islamic schools for children in Gambia, we want our kids to get a strong Islamic education so what are their Islamic schools like?
May God bless you and your beautiful family and grow you all in HIS knowledge and shower you all in HIS protection! Amen Ya Rabb 🤲🏾🤲🏾🤲🏾🤲🏾
May Allah guide and protect your family sister. Am 25 and i see whats happening in the west. I am making plans to raise my family in Gambia inshallah
May Allah guide and make things easier for the ummah
Masha Allah beautiful family 🥰I’m impressed with your decision and commitment sister🥰 I’m here in the us for 6 yrs with 2 kids, but I born and raised in Africa 😍my plan is to take my half Ecuadorian /somali kids to Somalia 🥰 Insha Allah it’ll be one day.
mashallah may allah be with you and your family, i am somali and moved from UK to Egypt and now we are living in UAE, my end goal is back home inshallah x
I appreciate this, may Allah bless you with everything good. May He protect your family, Ameen❤
Mashallah am half way through the video and being a new revert it was so much in my mind to be in a country where Islam is practised for the sake of my child too.its challenging for me right now because of her school but I know intime Allah is making a way...InshaAllah
Thank you for watching ❤️. Yes Allah will always make a way. May He bless you with goodness and give you the best life, Ameen. Thank you for leaving this comment.

May Allah makes it easier and possible for you to achieve ur goals Ameen
My wife and I are coming this , keep up the hope and the information, You'll are great.
You’re doing a good job sister right decision a lot of us didn’t think about this Alhamdulillah our children are grown they doing OK they religion is somewhat OK but I could have done a better job but you are doing a great job moving back home don’t worry about a college they can always come back when they are strong in their faith nothing can change insha Allah
Assalamoalaikum sister,
Barakahumuallah,
I tried the same thing with my family.
InshahAllah you will be rewarded.
May Allah give toufiq to our other Muslim brothers and sisters in Islam to do the same.
Walaykumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatu, thank you!!
Although I’m not a parent, I am an elder sibling so I deeply deeply sympathize with modern Muslim parents trying their best to raise their children in the best way possible (deen-wise). I really hold all of the parents burdens on my shoulders. I feel so sad every time i see an agenda being pushed in children’s books/movies because I know most parents aren’t really acknowledging what’s going on. It’s alright though because we know that Allah is with us and with every hardship, comes ease💓. I myself was led astray growing up but with time, I finally realized what the truth is. We all have our paths/journeys and I just hope you and your family are kept on the straight path, along with the rest of the Ummah, insha’Allah. I just discovered your channel and I’m in love! You guys give me positive vibes and just LIFE. Mashallah🥰 Keep it up sis!!
I understand this!! Thank you for sharing ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Thank you!! I'm so happy you're enjoying the channel. Ramadan Mubarak 💝💝.
I’m going to straight up sis… I’m not a religious man, but I truly appreciate the conversation! Even though I have no experience walking in the shoes if someone of your faith, I can see how the West would make it extremely difficult especially when it comes to raising your family. And we all know what religions are “acceptable “ in this land of “freedom”. If the motherland gives you strength in your faith, I would say that you have absolutely won the war.
Side note: the great education argument in the US is such a misconception and half truth… it’s really ridiculous. There is so much education abroad that is so much better! The U.S. is a name-brand, you are not getting anything but a diploma with name recognition, doesn’t make you smarter than anyone else. Your family will be much better for getting away.
✌🏾Have a good day sis✌🏾
All of this! I appreciate it!! Thank you for sharing.
I love your comments
@@ilhaanf663 I appreciate that! I will keep them coming!!!
May Allah aid you and increase you and your family in worshiping Him! Your dua was 'heartfelt' sis!. Oh changer of hearts , make our hearts firm upon Your religion!
Ameen🤲🏾Jazakallahukhair!!
Mashallah sister you are so amazing love from 🇬🇲🇬🇲
The no waste lifestyle is real! I brought a tv with us that the screen cracked during travels. I told the workers in my how to just throw it away. They were like.. are you sure?!!… well I’ll take it! The plumber took it and had it fixed!!! Asked me for the remote and said it works fine! 😂😂🤣I wasn’t ready for that! It’s fine. The tv was for him!🤷🏾♀️
😂😂 I can imagine that moment for real! I swear it's one of the things I love most about our lifestyle change. It makes you think twice and 3 times before throwing things away😊.
@@summersinafrica it absolutely does!!! Even now being in the states I’m questioning what I should pack and what I shouldn’t! We brought the tv because I knew that electronics are very expensive abroad. So shipping one or bringing on the plane is much cheaper. I am definitely trying to find useful things to bring with me on my next trip. I know that they have things in Africa but the quality isn’t there. Did you have anything shipped?
Very true. We visited Rwanda. The kids didn’t really like the food. Our cleaner took everything that the kids didn’t like or wouldn’t eat. Alhamdulilah, I never had to throw anything away.
ما أنضج عقلك و أرزنك كأمّ مسلمة يا آمنة !! اللّهم الصٌلاح و الفلاح و النّجاح لجميع أبناء المسلمين أينما كانوا على ظهر الأرض ..يا ربّ .. آمين ...آمين.. 🌺
فعلا عندها بعد نظر،ماشاء الله عليها الله يوفقها في مسعاها....خطوه جباره في حياتها....
May Allah increase your family in goodness in this life and the next! Ameen!
Yaa Aminah, Keep talking! Keep calling/inviting to your Lord(swt), it maybe that someone is benefitting.
Allah(swt) says in the Quran "And who is better in speech than he/she who calls/invites to his/her Lord, does Good, and says that I am one amongst the Muslims.
A Good Muslim woman is the bedrock of her family and a great "asset" to her husband.
I pray that other Muslim women can take inspiration from your wisdom and belief in your Lord. Ameen
I appreciate this! Thank you for watching.
Subhanallah you are an inspirational to us Muslims living in the west may allah bless you
Peace and blessings; you are a beautiful queen of the Most High Elohim of Yisrael., from the tribe Judah. Your videos are outstanding. I pray that the Most High blesses you and your family and that he pours His spirit of discernment and understanding upon your Soul. Shalom Achoti
Jazak Allah kheir. So wonderful to hear this.
Mashallah sister i was waiting for your video i am also planning to move back home in east africa this year inshaallah with my 4 kids. you inspire me alot ❤
This means a lot to me! Thank you for watching them, Mashallah 😊❤❤🤗.
Masha allah sis easy what sidee??
Maasha Allah TabarakAllah what a beautiful Muslim family Allahumabarik🙌🏾😊❤️
Wonderful video. I need to get out of this place. 😂 Africa is so beautiful.
😂😂 Thank you!! It is beautiful sis. Inshallah you will see it. Allah is the best of planners always.
Masha’Allah! May Allah BLESS you and your family in this life and hereafter sis.
Mashallah sister ! I totally commend you for this ! May Allah reward you for your efforts on becoming a better muslim . I’ve been thinking about moving to a different country with my daughter for the same reasons . May Allah continue to guide you and your beautiful family 🤲🏽🥰
Mashallah sister a lot of my Muslim brothers and sisters in Norway have been getting less Muslim and doing zina. It’s very nice to live in Norway but it’s not a Muslim country but you did I great choice sister mashallah
Na’am sis exactly what I people about my kids…I fear my kids becoming disbelievers here in America as well and I fear my Lord Allaah azza wa jal… In shaa Allaah my family will be making hijrah to The Gambia this year. May Allaah subhanahu wa ta’ala bless you and your family
As-Salaamu Alaikum Sister! I'm happy for you, Alhamdulilah!!❤
Mashlh goodjob sister..faith is the most important thing in our life❤❤
Your channel was recommended to me and I'm so happy it was. ❤️
I appreciate this, welcome ❤❤
Gambia 🇬🇲 Macha’Allah people with aglaq
You made the best decision to receive Allah's Mercy in this life, and definitely in the Hereafter. Sadly, many Muslims are not intoxicated on alcohol, but instead, they are drunk on misguidance, ignorance of Islam, disobedience, arrogance, and pathways that will lead to their detriment (intellectually, morally, and spiritually as Muslims). May Allah Protect and Support you and your family in your endeavors.
Maa Sha Allah khayruin may Allah subhana wa ta a'la keep you steadfast and keep your kid's on what's correct Allahumma Ameen. I understand uhkti exactly why I wanna relocate to a islamic country for the sake of Allah
Ameen, may Allah bless you with the same and better Inshallah!❤
Good day, thank you for sharing... trust and believe when information is planted in our children it's in there coming from a family where my father side was Muslim, and my mother side was Baptist I learned from them both when i would go to work in the early am i would hear the call to prayer and it would turn me around to pray but i couldn't be late for work, i would see men praying on the streets of Philly and that was wonderful to me to see. Now i seen a brother point a AK at another brother was disheartening some of the people seem it's just a evilness and young people young men and young women killing, shooting it makes me pray more than before. I'M happy for you and your families that's there with you because it takes a village to raise children and adults, I'm proud of you just woman to woman prayers to the MOST HIGH for us and our families
Thank you for sharing. I appreciate this!❤
May Allah bless and protect you and your family
Sister has lots of Iman
Masa Allah what a peaceful land. You can walk 🚶♀️ outside freely in Gambia
True sister very well said .
This richness one day gets into people's head .
People become severely depressed and loose the focus and motivation.
That's very common in rich & developed countries.
You don't know what real life is and what's your purpose of life.
MashAllah you made a very wise decision. 👌
I love your videos they are so calm and peaceful.
ما شاء الله تبارك الرحمن
بارك الله فيكي وفي ذريتك أختي الفاضلة 🎀💝🎀
Allahumma Barik 🌻 may allah reward you Ameen
I love the simple low key relaxed life in Africa in Morocco is like that too it s not as stressful as US the only problem is finding jobs other then that life is much enjoyable and you can hear adhan everywhere and there is always a masjid near by whenever it s time to pray you just have to walk in and finish prayer and the. Continue going where you want to go
Motivating. Jazak Allah
As salaamu alaikum. Sis, may Allah guide and keep you all protected. I love you all for the sake of Allah. You are right. 😍😍😍
Wow Hijra hair Allah ?!! Mashallah may Allah bless you for your courage and sacrifice for him. Amen
Big respect to you sister.
I love your content. Your believes are so true..you are doing great. And being surrounded by love peace and positive energy you can’t ask for much more. Continue to walk in faith allah will guide you through your journey..❤️❤️💥
I appreciate this!!❤❤❤
Your are the BEST mom EVER
I just found your channel. I find what you did truly amazing. May Allah protect you and shower you and your children with his blessings ❤️❤️❤️
MashaAllah beautiful sis!! May Allah SWT take you higher and higher to Jannah and nearer and nearer to Him. And for all the other muslim brothers and sisters around the world with sincere intentions for Him. Ameen!!! xox
Allah make you children guiding lights for our ummah. Bless your efforts
As salaamu alaykum sister, you are 100% correct. May Allah swt make it easy for you and your family. Ameen . Many of us are not realizing the impact of the society in USA is having on us and our children. I was very pleased to see your CZcams channel, an AA MUSLIM women, showing us and telling us what we need to hear. There are currently many CZcams channels about Africa and The Gambia but Alhamdulillah we Muslim woman can relate to your situation. Thank you so much.
I appreciate you sister!! Alhamdulilah 😊❤❤
Walaykumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatu, May Allah bless you and your family with goodness.

With you a better life with your family.
Assalamu aleykum dear sister, MashAllah, I'm proud of you. My husband me and our 6 children moved from Germany to Mauritania also in october 2021. Alhamdulillah. We are almost neighbors 😊. I would like to contact you, if it's possible! I am a white woman,with a black husband, sometimes i have a really hard time here though, feeling a bit lonely,but Alhamdulillah,our children are much more into Islam now!
السلام عليكم عليكم الله وبركاته...
How are you sister, I hope that you and your family are doing good in my home country. Mauritania is a good environment to raise children, especially Quran and Islamic manners, and it humbles you because life isn't luxurious there. I had the same experience it's hard until you adjust. May Allah make things easier for you 🙏.
@@mariemouhabibe6318 wa aleykum Salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu dear sister. Thank you for your response, jazak allahu kheir. Yeah you are right. But where do you live now,if i may ask?
Alhamdulillah we are doing quite well, though it is still not easy,but live is not made to be easy. How are you? Barak allahu feeki, Assalamu aleykum
Very relatable video thank you for sharing.
Alhamdullilah. May Allah bless and guide your family amen
May Allah Ta'alaa reward you ukhti. More Muslims in the west (dhar al kufr) should choose to make hijrah. Just to strive to obey Allah Ta'alaa and safeguard one's islam.
MashaAllah may Allah bless you from kenya 🇰🇪
May Allah grant you more understanding and boost your spirit on endurance. You make the best decision, keep up that believe in you to see it through.
Bravo well appreciated iman over everything
Sister Alhamdullia, Mashaallah TabarallAllah.
May Allah Almighty Bestow his Mercy upon you and your family facilitate all your affairs in the right way and may all your affairs ends well, Ameen Ameen Ameen.
Ameen🤲🏾🤲🏾🤲🏾 Jazakallahukhair!
Assalam sister in Islam i applaud you. My children grew up in India it was my ancestors home my husbands home. They had a beautiful simple life. Despite muslims being a majority it is a large minority. It was easy madressa was after fazr, life went according to the sala times. Jumah was hols. They played free everyone looked for each other. I was fine with my simple life. Today i grapple with the reality that india may not be the place for us anymore. What you say about recycling is true, no waste. I got potatoes for my waste.
Kudos to you. You are awesome.
JAZAKALLAH KHAIR
Mashallah sister welcome to Africa 100 percent MAY ALLAH PROTECT us all
Allah will definitely bless you and your beautiful families insallah 😊😊😊
Alhamdullilah sister. I am so happy for you. May Allah grant you your desire and goals for your family in the best possible way. Ameen Jazak Allahu Khiaran ❤️🥰🙏

Ameen, Ameen, Ameen🤲🏾. May Allah bless you with the same and better Inshallah!
Salam aleykum wa rahmatullah wa barakatu sister, may Allah reward you with the best in this life and the next, to you and your family. I agree 100% with you, we was created not to be good in college to have a good life here in dunya but to worship Allah. I was living in Gambia 2 years unfortunately my marriage didn't worked, but I'm trying to go back in sha Allah as a single mum is not easy but with the help of Allah I will do my hijrah in sha Allah.🥰
Walaykumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatu, May Allah bless you with better than what you lost Ameen. Jazakallahukhair Sister ❤️. I pray that Allah blesses you and your children with the best of this life and the next life.
