Assalamu Alaikum Bliifeeans, I’m Asmaa and you're watching Bliifee. And in this video,
we will look at my morning routine because a lot of you guys asked me to share what
my daily routine is like. But the thing is I do not have a daily routine because
each and every day of the week for me is different and no day is the same as another. But I managed
to create a morning routine that worked well for me alhamdulillah which I followed until
daylight savings kicked in around the start of October where our clocks move forward one hour in
Australia. So that happened and my whole morning routine is messed up. But I’m going to share with
you that morning routine which worked so well for me before daylight savings kicked in. And
I got a lot of work done alhamdulillah before the day actually began. So, let's get right into it.
The first thing I would do every day is to wake up at 3:30am in the morning, get fresh then do my
wudu, and get tahajjud done. I did notice that it was hard to wake up at 3:30 in the morning
if I had not followed the technique that helps me to wake up for tahajjud. And if you want to know
that technique that works for me then check this video out because I’ve discussed everything about
it in that video. So yes, tahajjud was a really good motivation for me to wake up at 3:30 in
the morning. After waking up at 3:30 and getting my prayers done I would move on at four o'clock
to catching up with the previous day's classes for my alimah course. Normally my alimah course
classes runs from 3 pm to 6:30 pm but by that time I’ve used up all my energy in the evening
so I’m not able to sit through them live. That's why I catch up with them the next day in the
morning before I do anything else. So, I get the first class done in 30 minutes and now it is 4:30
in the morning. At 4:30 it is Fajr time, and I take a break, pray Fajr, do some morning adhkaar,
and then at five o'clock to six o'clock I complete the rest of my classes. At six o'clock
then for half an hour I spend time with the Quran on doing some memorization and revision
for which I am regularly tested every week on Wednesdays. Once I’m done with that,
I move on to some brain training which I do on an app called elevate every morning.
That takes me around five to ten minutes and then I start reading a book for the rest of the time
until it is seven am. At seven am the plan is to start breakfast which means either preparing
for breakfast and then eating it or eating whatever is there but 7-8 is breakfast time.
Before starting breakfast if I am still in my wudhu from Fajr then I pray salat-ud-duha. If
I’m not in my wudu then I either, make my wudu and pray salat-ud-duha or I if I don't feel like
it then I just go ahead and have my breakfast. By the way this is my prayer clothes set and if
you would like to buy one for yourself then the link is in the description box below.

At eight o'clock after breakfast I start my other work which includes content creation or my paid
job or whatever it is. But at eight o'clock is when the day begins for me. In the last few days
of when I was following this morning routine, at eight o'clock I started off work by filming and
editing at least one or two TikTok videos and from nine o'clock onwards I would do whatever
work is required on that day as per my schedule. Every day of the work week is different for me.
Now there can be some fluctuations in this routine depending on something that I might
have taken longer to do or taken lesser time to do. For example, I may have taken longer to do
my Quran memorization of the Quran that morning or I might have finished it earlier because I’m just
revising. So, it just like keeps fluctuating but that was the general layout of my morning routine
starting from 3:30 in the morning all the way up till 9:00 am. And once I start the day I just get
into the flow and each of these tasks comes one after the other even if they're not going on the
exact time as scheduled. Like I said I followed this up until a few weeks ago until when daylight
savings time started which meant Fajr time was now at 5:30 and Isha was also later in the evening
which meant that I could not sleep as early as I was. Daylight savings pretty much means that we
move one hour ahead so that we have more sunlight during the warmer days. Honestly don't ask me
about it because I don't understand it myself even though I’ve been going through daylight savings
switching on and off for like eight or nine years now. I've just learned to go with the flow and
accept it because there's nothing I can do about it, right? Anyways I did try to wake up at 3:30
even after daylight savings time started but I was not being as productive as I wanted to because
now 3:30 during daylight savings is literally 2:30 without daylight savings. So for the last
few weeks I’ve been trying to figure out another schedule or morning routine that works for me
but alhamdulillah this morning routine worked super well before daylight savings kicked in and
I thought it would be useful for me to share this with you guys especially for those of you who were
asking about my morning routine. And because some of you are in the northern hemisphere where you
guys are moving towards winter then In Shaa Allah this morning routine can be an inspiration for you
guys to follow as well. Also, In Shaa Allah if I figure out something else for the next few months
during daylight savings then I will keep you guys updated. But slowly and steadily we will be
entering the days where Isha will be around 10:30 pm and so for that I will need to be following the
tips that I have discussed in this video about how to manage sleep when the prayer timings are super
late which is Isha and Fajr super early in the morning. Let me know in the comments down below
what you guys think about the morning routine that you just saw in this video and as always if you
