New job - Al hamdulillah

All praise be to Allah, the best of Providers. And blessings and peace upon the final Messenger.

Forgive me that I missed the last post. As some of you know already, I just started my new (and practically first) job. I've joined a university by the name of LUMS (www.lums.edu.pk) as an Assistant Professor in the Business School, specialising in Information Systems. It all came all of a sudden and goes once again to re-inforce the understanding that you will get what is written. As I had not even started to apply for jobs, and Allah willed that an unsuccessful application last year should be the catalyst for my current appointment.

And the delay in my thesis seems to be a positive in terms as, because of this some changes took place in this institution that have made it a more conducive long-term prospect to my own vision of the future. And Allah knows best.

Indeed, all praise and thanks is due to Allah as this has been a great mercy for me. And I pray Allah blesses all of my well-wishers who contributed in the form of prayers and material help as well. Jazakumullahu Khairen Katheeran.

There you go. That's all I can manage at the moment. Expect the next post this Saturday or so. Have had to keep this one brief due to the time issues. Grant me permission.

Wassalamu alaikum

Abdullah
