You read that right! 10 years ago my family moved to Saudi Arabia. We lived in the Eastern Province for the first 7 years,then spent 3 years in Riyadh and now we have made our way closer to the Haramain. Masha’Allah! Not much to update you on, as the 3 years spent in Riyadh were pretty hectic. I went from a Stay At Home Mom to straight hustling! I worked, tutored and developed several entrepreneurial projects. All of that, along with raising my 4 wonderful children. My children were actually my inspiration behind my Head Lice Treatment and Removal Service (now in Jeddah!!!).
This summer the daughter of a friend of mine got married in Jeddah, so we did another Umm Adam Family Road Trip (National Lampoon has nothing on us!), we also made our first umrah in 3 years. The thought of being closer to Makkah and able to make frequent umrah trips,plus finding out about a great Quran program and being around a great bunch of sisters is what put my plan in action.We returned home in the middle of July, I ran the idea of moving by my dear husband and he was supportive of it. By the end of August we moved to Jeddah walillahil hamd!
Right now I am still getting settled into Jeddah. I have my precious ones in great Islamic schools. Once I find a reliable driver, insha’Allah, then maybe I can update this old blog with more Umm Adam Family Adventures, insha’Allah!

Dear Um Adam,
Assalamualkum. I am soo glad I came accross this web page as i am a mother of two girls, one is 9 and the other is 5 and I have a problem of finding the peoper school for my children. My Mariam goes to Alwadi International school but the thing is that the fees are somehow high for me if thinking to put the second daghter wtj her sister. Besides, The school’s sustem relies on filling in information than enlightinig the children. I will be grateful if you woud recommend any good school in Jeddah.
Jazaki Allah khairan

As-salaam alaikoum warahmatullah wabarakatuh sister Umm Adam.
I just came across your blog after researching about hijrah to the KSA. Maa shaa Allah, you have a very nice blog. Allahumma baarik!
Sis, do you mind if I contact you? I would like to get more info in shaa Allah and also stay in touch if that’s ok with you. I think I can learn a lot from you in shaa Allah. Allahu a’laam.
How do I contact you if it’s fine with you?
BarakAllahu feeki.
