I turned 23 today so in order to mark the occassion i have been working on producing a personal mission statment that i can live by and here it is:
Personal mission statement
1) Always be sincere and honest with myself and my creator (including my intentions, motives and drives)
2) Know that victory comes with patience, relief with affliction and ease with hardship.
Priorities my family. Aim to make my whole being an enrichment and blessing upon my parents. And my time on earth a source of comfort and unwavering support to my siblings.
3) Nurture my friendships, give without expectations, seek to understand and then be understood
4) Excel in counselling ( Person-centred approach integrated with a Islamic perspective, attain the Islamic knowledge and wisdom that this will require)
5) Sponsor an orphan/s
6) Allah loves that which is small but consistent, set up a standing order with Islamic relief.
7) Fluency in Arabic, beauty in Tilawa, Eloquence in Speech and memorisation of the Qur’an.
8) Explore Allah’s world (Frequent, responsible and earth friendly travel)
9) Learn at least one new skill a year
10) Eradicate at least one bad habit a year
11) Be debt free always.

Are birthdays a bidah?
Well sister jazakallahu khairn, next time I offer salat I will make a dua'a for you.
Wa salaama,
nuh ibn
Shukran Ahamed
Nuh, i guess it is a bidah in that its new but as to whether its haram i have not looked it up because i use the day as i time for reflection and to plan for the next year no parties.
Although if you now more about the matter please share
jazakallah khayr for the du'a :)
