One of the beautiful qualities of the Prophet ﷺ was to adapt according to those around him. He was a child with children, youngster with the youth and an adult with adults. He would smile when they smiled, and expressed amazement to something when they expressed amazement.

Heart cries out for Aleppo (halab) - what once was a place of great ulama, muhaddithun, fuqaha & saints is now a place of murder & brutality

The media wrongly portrays “gender segregation” in Islam as “segregating women.” Islam instructs respectful separation (which is not limited to physical separation) between the two genders, decreeing certain rules for both men and women to facilitate this segregation.

Especially for scholars & tullab: Always wanting to choose strict rulings simply to gain respect & be regarded as pious is a hidden spiritual disease. Likewise, choosing lenient rulings simply to become popular & be regarded as progressive is also a hidden spiritual disease.

Attending ‘Sahih al-Bukhari’ lessons of Shaykh Muhammad Taqi Usmani. Feels amazing to sit amongst students, and be one of them, as part of a classroom after so many years. There are over 500 students in the final year at Dar al-Ulum Karachi.

We tweet regularly about the passing away of so-and-so. One day, someone will tweet that we have passed away. May Allah make that day easy for us, Ameen.

Some “Muslims” won’t deny the Qur’an & Hadith outright - for the fear of backlash & being deemed as non-believers - but raise doubts and objections, under the pretext of “thinking outside the box”. Firm believers, convinced of their greatness, will never entertain such doubts.

Allah loves broken hearts - especially, those that break due to avoiding a sin for His sake alone and out of His love alone.

Once you develop a deep, strong connection and relationship with the Creator, you become less needy of attention from the creation.

Muslim women should not be upset for experiencing menstrual periods during Ramadan; Allah gives you the concession to not fast/pray so embrace it. Making female members of the family feel ashamed and bad is wrong and has no place in Islam.

It is interesting, and not really surprising, that many of our esteemed scholars/ulama - both in the past and present - started off their studies & early learning by their mothers. Their first and most influential teacher was their mother. Never underestimate the role of mothers.

Why do Muslims fast? 1) To practice controlling one’s carnal desires & building willpower against the urge to commit sin. 2) Practicing submission to God - eating when He allows & abstaining when He forbids. 3) Training to excercise sabr. 4) Experiencing the plight of the poor.

Real tasawwuf/tazkiya goes against the very essence of today’s online & social media world. The desire to be known, become a social media star, have more followers/likes, become a popular YouTuber & lusting after money..are spiritual diseases that Islam instructs us to eradicate.

Once you stop worrying about public image, pleasing people and opinions of others - and only worry about acceptance in Allah’s sight - life becomes much more relaxed and easier Al-hamdulillah.

A marriage does not work on a set of dry rules; the spirit is what makes it prosper. The wife ‘technically’ does not have to cook for her husband, and the husband ‘technically’ does not have to take her on holiday ever or smile at her. True love is not subject to technicalities.
