Meet the Characters of JannahSteps…

Umm Professional

Meet our Suze Orman of the Muslim world. She somehow has everything organized; her schedules are not always neat but are up to date. She is a confident and hard working Muslim business woman.

Placed on her desk are her never ending piles of folders, computer, the latest business report and a little alarm clock that goes off at Dhuhr time. On the phone or in a meeting, her voice is structured with a level of sophistication and humor.

Her day starts at dawn as she prepares for the rustle and bustle ahead. She whips up her children to a Muslim day care and Islamic school, and is off to work. She has watchful eyes on her children’s issues and tries very hard to keep on top of it all.  She knows how a parent should deal with educators and school administrators. She keeps in touch with them via her blackberry as she helps them prepare for their annual fundraiser.

During the day, she jumps from one conference meeting to another, and takes her lunch break at Dhuhr time so she can fulfill her Islamic obligations. When she gets a moment, she turns to quranexplorer.com to catch up on some quiet Quran reading.

She’s an expert on time management and delegating tasks. She interacts with other creative women professionals and she works twice as hard to create clever business project plans to please her clients. She reads a lot to keep on top of the latest business news and is currently working on a secret project for Jannahsteps.

Umm Professional is the business voice for the Jannahsteps.
