What the Supermarket Says About Our Souls.
💭 From Two Racks to Two Aisles – A Reflection on Consumption
📄 Reel Caption / Description
🧃 Remember the time when a shop had only two racks of drinks?
Now? It's aisles of options.
From dilutes and juices to gallons of punch, from Sainsbury’s to Albertsons, and now in Asda – we’ve adopted the same excess.
🍭🛍️ And it’s not just drinks.
Whole aisles are dedicated to:
Polish food
Moroccan & Egyptian food
Kosher products
Ready-made indulgence from every culture
🎯 Why? Because companies are competing for our desires.
Ad budgets in the billions are designed to feed decadence, not discipline.
SubḥānAllāh – this is modern dunya: everything is accessible, but not everything is good.
🌍 A world of choices.
💔 A generation of restlessness.
🕋 Where is zuhd (detachment)?
🧠 Where is our restraint?
💡 What do we really need?
📌 Sometimes, just stepping into a supermarket is enough of a reminder of the need to return to Allah.
