Von Depression zu Inspiration

„Von Depression zu Inspiration“  Assalamou Alaykom, After a major breakdown I had in 2016, I quit my job and travelled back home in North Africa, to join my parents where I’ve spent some time there to recover, that’s when I have had the chance to spend more time in the mosque and learn more about Islam to get closer to Allah. I couldn’t help but noticing then the lack of choice and variation in Islamic Casual/Fashion wear for Muslim Men, apart from the classic Kameez, Jubba or Thobe that you wear mostly for prayer or special occasions like Eid etc. and not really much for everyday wear. Being a Muslim Man who should care about his appearance, I used to combine casual clothing & traditional Islamic garments to get a more contemporary look yet meet our Islamic dress code, without feeling alienated by the society we live in, especially in the west.  Einige Monate später, durch die Führung Allahs (SWT), verspürte ich den Drang, etwas zu tun. In dieser Zeit begann ich, die Idee zu formen, einen Online‑Marktplatz für muslimische Mode und Lifestyle zu schaffen, und da kam mir der Name „MOOMENN“ in den Sinn, ein arabisches Wort, das „Gläubiger“ bedeutet.  May 2017 I came back to London and started my research, which led me to realised how so many young and adult Muslims around the world who were just like me, needed not only solutions but guidance as well, and so I began pursuing a dream to create a network of Modest clothing and accessories brands to build not only a hub of choices and variety for Muslims but also reaching out to Muslim writers to create an educational content for young and adult Muslims about our garments’ history and dress code. Al Hamdoullillah, after several months of market research, building the business and founding partnerships, I’ve founded the project in Feb 2018 and launched the website couple of months later.  Das MOOMENN-Team arbeitet rund um die Uhr daran, Muslimen weltweit einen One-Stop-Shop für alle Kategorien islamischer Mode zu bieten – von Smart/Casual Wear und Sportbekleidung bis hin zu Bademode, Accessoires und mehr – und das alles, ohne unsere islamische Identität und Werte zu kompromittieren und gleichzeitig in jede Gesellschaft zu passen, in der wir leben.   May Allah purify our intentions and put baraka in our actions. All praises due to Allah Soubhanahou wa Taala, who guided me All Along! Let’s begin by saying Besmellah.   Frieden & Segen   Founder Aziz Louhichi
