About me


I am an Assistant Professor of Culture and History at the American University in Cairo, as well as, an Islamic Studies teacher at IQRA. I love teaching students from all around the world and having lively discussions with them about what it means to practice Islam as a way of life. I use simple, straightforward teaching methods to make the process of learning fun and easy. I once heard a saying “All of us are messengers that have a message to deliver. So always deliver a good message to be a good person.” That’s how I try to lead all my lessons and remember that we are a team working together.
