"Why" is beyond science

In science you can only explain how things happen. You cannot explain why they happen. This is where religion comes in. And what religion does not answer we leave to God's infinite wisdom!

Good bye to my 8th Graders

I am going to miss my amazing bunch of 8th grade students very much. Since my academic experience has largely been with college students and beyond, teaching pre-teens and just teens, came as a challenge to me. But Alhamdulillah so far it has been a walk in the park.

I am going to miss all the adventures with you guys.

I loved challenging you guys and pushing you to get every last key word of the answer

I enjoyed the experiments in the lab as much as you did

Having to hold back my laughter...

Thank you for brightening up those not so bright days of winter

Thank you for helping me roller skate ;)

May high school be filled with happy memories

May Allah bless each and every one of you where ever you may go!

And if we never meet again in this world, I hope that we will Insha Allah in Jannah!

Adios and Salaams

Your ever-loving science teacher

Science Lies - Dare to continue!

Your knowledge in science is limited. That's right. Science is always changing  So no matter how much you know, but you can never know for sure because "A" today can become "Omega" tomorrow.

Science can lie. Religion doesn't. This is my belief. So if you are in it for the long ride, read on move on to my less complicated blogs.

Observation is limited to our tools and senses
