By ZAINAB ASADULLAH In the moment before you die, something incredible happens. Incredible and terribly sad. No matter how you die.

Some of you may have met me, while most are probably reading this wondering who I am? Well, let me shed some light on elements of my identity; I am your brother, your neighbor, your classmate, your friend, and a part of your community. Most of you are probably confused as to what I am talking about, but I hope, Insha’Allah (God Willing), to share my views of our Muslim campus community and perhaps contribute some insight on how to make it better….

Assalamu Alaikum; May the Peace and Blessings of God be with you,

I have been truly blessed with an amazing team of volunteers; you all occupy a special place in my heart and I love you for the sake of Allah SWT. May Allah SWT grant you success in this life and in the next, and I hope we get the opportunity to work together as a team again…

My hand rests on the top of the steering wheel while the numbers showing on the speedometer climb higher and higher. I get to the point where I can feel the car shifting gears. I know I should stop. I put the pedal to the floor and let my car fly. It flies past trucks, vans, and even police cruisers. I am going too fast. I still have control over the car. Losing control would be horrible. Dumb. Suicidal…
