Salaams,
This past Jumua, the mother of my dear friend &mentor sh Tariq Musleh passed away - Allah yerhamha. Their entire family are very mubarak, people of the Quran and khidma, mA. Please keep her and her family in your duaas and also share this for her
Assalamu Alaykum, i am coming back from my twitter hiatus to share something important. This is time sensitive, ends at 5pm today (chicago time). A group of bigots are trying to stop a masjid being built, and they are getting people from everywhere to get the proposal rejected
As a Muslim you absolutely have to see Islam is theologically superior. No syncretism nonsense
Islam is intellectually superior logically consistent and makes an exclusive truth claim. Otherwise there's no point in believing it's true. Truth is mutually exclusive
"The revolutionary potential of Islam has to be put to the service of humanity, and not to the service of the Islamic cause. We have to think in terms of diversity and syncretism, not in terms of supremacy.”

How r u gonna community note a whole religious belief 💀
This is like if someone says "God is real" and the note says "umm, acktually there is no evidence that God exists"
Jesus was a Muslim. This means he submitted to God. He proclaimed he could do nothing by himself (Jn. 5:30), he prayed with his face on the ground (Mt.26:39) and his mother Mary covered her hair. He did not eat pork and in his own language, Aramaic, God is called "Allah”

they currently have a large majority in opposition. Please follow the instructions to support. It doesnt matter if youre not local, the other side is also doing the same thing so the masjid is asking for everyone's support. Please share widely
Allah is merciful, people aren't. You should be terrified of taking people's haqq, especially if you're even slightly to do with their being distanced from the deen. You want to be at the mercy of the Creator, not the creation
Duaa ultimately is an act of worship. There are several take aways from this
1 - don't be transactional. Still hope for a good outcome, but he attached to Allah, not the result
Keep a good opinion of Allah. He says I am as my servant thinks of me.
Take note, this is why you don't marry a nonmuslim. No matter how pious and knowledgeable you are, it only takes a generation two for centuries of Islam in your lineage to end (Allah protect us)

All this time I thought he was saying "I'm gonna stop him" not "I'm gonna stab him" and he pulls out a knife (didn't notice)
Completely changes the vid lol
Sidi muaz was one of the kind hearted and beautiful people I've ever met. He taught me adab with too me even realizing until later. He was such a welcoming beautiful soul. May Allah have mercy on him and enter him into firdaws without reckoning
Sorry to be blunt but people are being yes idiots by disparaging imam Al shafi'i over this.
It doesn't mean he got aroused.
Imam Al shafi'i was one of the most pious of our ummah, besides being one of the most knowledgeable. 1/
"outdated interpretations"
You are supposed to change for Islam, not the other way around. This is what principles are by definition. A good religion changes you for the better, it doesn't make you worship yourself
أَفَرَأَيْتَ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ إِلَهَهُ هَوَاهُ
A 2021 Gallup poll found that 20% of those born between 1997 and 2003 (Gen Z) identify as something other than straight. Are self-proclaimed "prominent Muslim leaders" really willing to sacrifice 1/5th of our youth to outdated interpretations of the faith?
A quick dhikr to repeat when you're feeling sad or depressed, one of my teachers taught me -
يا قريب يا رقيب
Oh close One, oh One who is watching over me
Oh Allah I seek refuge in you from knowledge that does not benefit, from a nafs that is insatiable, from a heart that is not reverent, from a duaa that is not answered, and from an eye that does not shed tears
One of the sad things about social media with Muslims is that it has completely destroyed any semblance of hayaa'. Not just images but things ppl say and how they interact. So much that some people don't even realize it was something that was removed in the first place

Several family members of a friend of mine tragically died in a car accident a few days ago when returning from umrah. Please keep them in your duass and support this campaign as well
Me omw to eat waterboarded chicken that was suffocated to death and a cow that was killed in a firing squad and a venison that was hit by a truck and lamb that was slaughtered by an atheist
I fundamentally disagree with the notion that chicken or beef is haram if it is not cut in an islamic way, which in the modern world only means it is not certified by your local influential mosque
If it’s chicken or beef, it is halal!!!

people asking for an update, someone sent me this:
it doesn't mean it's over yet (they still have to speak) but it's a good sign. Looks like we may have won over most of the support of the community, alhamdulillah
will try to find out more soon inshallah
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
I humbly request that if I have ever wronged, harmed, or even bothered you in any way to please forgive me.
