Bismillah: Launching Daoud’s Blog

Salaam everyone,

I bought daoud.blog about a year ago and then let it gather digital dust—waiting for the “perfect day,” the “perfect design,” the “perfect first post.” Perfectionism is a polite form of procrastination.

Today I’m hitting publish and choosing to learn in public. A dash of AI helped me break the inertia; the final voice is mine, edited line-by-line until it felt honest.

Why write?

• To remind myself first. Writing forces me to slow down and think about Qur’an, work, and fatherhood.
• To share wins and stumbles. Four ventures, 300+ events, 200+ startups later—I’m still learning every week.
• To build a community that changes itself—and the world. Ideas gain power when we test them together, not alone behind a screen.

What to expect here

• Short reflections on the tug-of-war between dunya and ākhirah.
• Practical lessons on company-building, community design, and time stewardship through an Islamic lens.
• Geeky tool experiments from my data-center days to today’s founder life.
• Subscriber-only invites to round-tables, workshops, and actionable resources.
