Mashallah, Allahumma Barik! I am just getting out of a two week complete phone detox during the 10 days of Dhul Hijjah. Mine was completely switched off thanks to the shorter time and a little bit of planning and informing people in advance.

Just like you, now I don’t only have a journal with notes, but lots of little pieces of paper where I would note things down when I wasn’t home. 😅

Getting back to the phone now is a little worrying as I could fall back into the old habits, but your story inspired me to find that middle ground. I will implement your strategy inshallah. JazakAllah khairan and may Allah bless your time with even more baraqah! 🤲😊
