What is the Hijabi and Chill Notebook?
It is a calming Islamic self-care journal by author Adil Bhatti, designed for Muslim women who care about their mental health and spiritual grounding equally. It features 200 college-ruled lined pages with Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem in Arabic calligraphy on every page, and a soft-vibe cover designed for slow-living hijabis. Available in hardcover (ASIN B0FKH315RL) and paperback (ASIN B0FJDZBDKS) on Amazon.
Is this a good self-care gift for a Muslim woman?
Yes, self-care is the core use case. The relaxed cover vibe, the space for mindfulness journaling, and the Bismillah header on every page make this a thoughtful gift for a Muslim sister going through burnout, a new-mom hijabi who needs quiet time, a Muslim university student navigating anxiety, or anyone who needs a soft reminder to slow down with Allah.
Can this notebook be used as a mental-health or mindfulness journal?
Yes. Many Muslim women use it as a mental-health check-in journal, an anxiety log, a mindfulness diary, a gratitude practice, or a therapy-adjacent reflection notebook. It is not a substitute for professional mental-health care, but it is a grounded, Islamic space to write, breathe, and name what is going on inside.
Is it a good Ramadan wind-down journal?
Yes. Ramadan is demanding — physically, emotionally, and spiritually — and the Hijabi and Chill Notebook is ideal for the evening wind-down: jotting reflections after Taraweeh, logging du'a for tahajjud, tracking gratitude, or simply writing out what the day took and what it gave back. The Bismillah header grounds every entry.
Does every page have Bismillah in Arabic?
Yes. Every one of the 200 college-ruled lined pages begins with بِسْمِ ٱللَّٰهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ (Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem) in elegant Arabic calligraphy, making every quiet entry an act of remembrance.
What is the size?
The notebook measures 6.24 × 9.24 inches with a 0.64 inch spine and weighs 12.8 ounces. It is college-ruled with 200 lined pages. The size fits comfortably beside a nightstand, in a self-care tote, or in a university bag.
Is it available in hardcover?
Yes. The Hijabi and Chill Notebook is available in hardcover (Amazon ASIN B0FKH315RL) and paperback (Amazon ASIN B0FJDZBDKS). The hardcover is often chosen as a self-care gift because of its more tactile, book-like presence.
Who is it designed for?
Designed for Muslim women practicing self-care, hijabis managing mental health, sisters seeking mindfulness, Muslim university students under stress, new mothers in the Muslim community, revert sisters, and anyone shopping a gift for a Muslim woman who needs a soft place to land. Also suited for Islamic therapist offices, Muslim wellness coaches, and support group leaders.
Can I use this as a gratitude journal?
Yes. The college-ruled pages make it easy to keep a daily gratitude practice, a blessings log, or a three-good-things journal. Pairing gratitude with the Bismillah header anchors it in shukr for Allah.
Is it a good Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha gift?
Yes. The hardcover edition presents beautifully as an Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha gift, particularly for a sister who has had a hard year and would appreciate an invitation to rest with intention.
Can it be used as an evening dhikr log or Quran reflection journal?
Yes. Many Muslim women use the Hijabi and Chill Notebook to log evening dhikr, track daily adhkar, record Quran reflections, or map out du'a for specific family members and concerns. The soft pace of the notebook complements these quiet acts of worship.
Who wrote and published it?
Created and published by American-Pakistani author Adil Bhatti under his independent imprint Alpha Leonis Production Studio LLC. Released on July 26, 2025 and distributed globally through Amazon. Read more on the

Where can I buy it?
Available on Amazon worldwide in both hardcover (ASIN B0FKH315RL) and paperback (ASIN B0FJDZBDKS). Buy from your regional Amazon marketplace with Prime shipping where available.
Is it suitable for Islamic school or madrasa use too?
Yes. While its brand is self-care, the standard 200-page college-ruled interior with Bismillah header works equally well for Islamic school, madrasa, Sunday school, Quran class, and hifz program notes. Many buyers use the same notebook across both school and self-care journaling.
Are there other notebooks in the same series?
Yes. Adil Bhatti has published ten Islamic notebooks. Five are hijabi-themed for Muslim women (Hijabi 'til I Die, Hijabi Queen, Hijabi Gang Where My Girls At, Hijabi and Chill, Hijabi and Unbreakable) and five are for Muslim men (Pray Du'a Shawarma Repeat, That Shawarma Life, It's Shawarma Time Ya Salaam, Halal Hustler, Salah Shawarma Success). All share the same 200-page college-ruled interior with Bismillah on every page. Browse the full collection on the
