Sutton is where south London meets Surrey — and an easy, direct run from my base in the Hills.
It's a fair question. Most breathwork comes wrapped in music, mantras and language borrowed from other religions — and if that's put you off, I understand. It put me off too.
I'm a revert. When I came to Islam I stopped teaching for a while, to work out honestly what belonged in my practice and what didn't. What I teach now has been through that filter: no music, no mantras, no visualisations lifted from somewhere else.
What's left is quiet, and it's enough. We're not adding anything to you — we're clearing what's been piled on top, so you can come back to the state you were made in: the fitrah, still there underneath it all. More about how I hold this work →
Most of us breathe shallow and fast without knowing it. You'll learn what good breathing actually feels like, and how to return to it.
A way to come down from anger, stress or anxiety in a couple of minutes — no props, no phone, wherever you are.
More awareness of what you're carrying and where you hold it — and gentle, practical movement to release it.
Getting down more easily at night, waking with something in the tank — including for fajr.
A quieter body and a slower mind. Many clients find that stillness carries into everything else they do.
Nothing to subscribe to and nobody to depend on. Simple practices you'll still be using in thirty years.
1-1 sessions at home across Sutton, Cheam and Carshalton. An hour, built entirely around what you want to change — sleep, anxiety, energy, or simply learning to be still.
Nonsuch Park and Cheam Park are both close, and quiet early in the day. Practising outdoors suits anyone who finds sitting still indoors difficult.
Small groups, families and gatherings — often the most comfortable way to begin. I can come to you, or we’ll find a quiet space locally.
Yes, and I keep it appropriate — group settings, public spaces, online, or with someone else present. Tell me what you'd be comfortable with and we'll arrange it that way.
We book around your timings — I pray too, so it's never awkward to ask. While fasting, sessions run gentler and are timed for after iftar or before fajr.
Message me with whatever's on your mind — including the questions you'd feel awkward asking. I'll answer honestly.
Feel a difference from your first session — or your money back.
I'm not a scholar and I don't give rulings — ask someone qualified if you have doubts. What I can tell you is what my sessions actually are: learning to breathe properly and settle your own nervous system. No music, no mantras, nothing borrowed from another religion. Breathing well is a physical skill, like learning to sit or walk well.
No. Sessions run in silence — no music, no mantras, no visualisations drawn from other traditions. Just the breath, the body and clear instruction.
They're close cousins. Meditation and mindfulness train the attention; breathwork works through the body — using the breath to settle the nervous system directly, which many people find easier. If you've been searching for Islamic meditation, Muslim meditation or a halal alternative to the mindfulness apps, this is that ground: quiet, practical, and free of anything that conflicts with your deen.
Humming is one physical technique I sometimes use — the vibration slows the exhale and helps the body settle. It's a sound, not a word: no mantra, no name, nothing being invoked. If you'd rather leave it out entirely, say so and we will.
No. There's no yoga, no postures named after deities and no spiritual framework attached. Where we use movement, it's slow, practical work to release tension in the body so the breath can move freely.
No, and it isn't meant to. This is physical training — how to breathe, how to come out of a stress response. Nothing here substitutes for worship, and I'd never present it that way.
Yes, and I prefer to keep it appropriate: group settings, public spaces, online, or with someone else present. If you'd rather work with a woman, tell me and I'll be honest about it.
At home anywhere in Sutton, outdoors — nonsuch Park and Cheam Park are both close, and quiet early in the day — or online if that’s easier. Groups and gatherings too.
Yes — gentler practices while fasting, timed for after iftar or before fajr. We book around prayer times all year; I pray too, so it’s never awkward to ask.
