This is just a reminder that Nikah can be conducted:
1. In the absence of bride and groom
2. In a sitting room
3. In just 10 - 15 minutes
4. If you fry small meat with small rice and serve 10 people, you will have performed waleemah.
Any part of your Nikah that is expensive is either as a result of human desires or cultural influence. These aren't bad by default, as long as you are doing it within your means, without haram activities.
If you are a young man who is thinking of getting married at the moment, look for a young lady and propose to her, someone 8 to 10 years younger than you are. Of course this is just a personal preference mentioned, age means nothing to some people. The younger and less exposed she is the shorter will be her list of marital expectations and the easier will it be for you to satiate her, again this is not a generalisation. If you find a woman that has a long list of impossibilities and exaggerations as marital expectations, my brother, search elsewhere no matter how attracted you are to her. In this difficult times, one of the greatest asset a man can have is to have at home a woman that is contented with little.
Don’t get me wrong, everybody is entitled to their preferences. It is a woman’s right to want whatever she wants. So I am not asking you to mock her for her choices or even try to discourage her from it. Perhaps there is a man out there for her, I am just advising you to look for your ‘size’ and get married to her. You won’t understand the blessings in that until some years into marriage. For now, you will think it is all about the good looks and physical endowments but those things are perhaps the most unimportant possessions when it comes to long term living together, but if you can kill two birds with one stone, maa shaa Allāh.
Look for someone pious, withdrawn, shy and conscious of what she does in public, may you not marry someone that will disgrace you on social media. That which was known with women was that virtuous women were modest in speech and actions, especially when in public.
May Allāh make it easy for you to find one. When you do please take good care of her, do not let her regret making you her choice. Money is very important in taking good care of a woman but it is not all that is needed. A rich man can be poor in taking care of a woman, do not listen to popular rhetorics. You will strive to earn an honourable living from which you will do your best to take care of her, but as well speak to her honorably not condescendingly. Do not make her feel less of a human simply because you are providing for her and taking care of her. We men are servant leaders, we are in the service of those under our care. When you find a good woman and treat her well, your poverty notwithstanding, you will enjoy marital life. Respect her rights and strive your best to give them to her. This includes right to provision and sexual satisfaction, as well as right to acquire wealth that is halal and spend of it as she pleases.
I have found many women to be soft-hearted and easy to please if we do not harden their hearts with repeated maltreatment. Live with her honorably and take care of her to the best of your ability. May Allāh unite your hearts and increase you in understanding.
Baarakallahu feekum.

WHY MARRY?
Often people marry blindly.
They look at the outward achievements of a person and marry according to that. For instance a person having a house, a car and a high end job. Many would marry just based upon that, and also the added condition of the individual being nice.
However we never really truly look at their inward achievements. Their spiritual achievements. That which is based upon their character and religious obligations. Many a time this is pushed aside when wealth and status are presented. But this is the most important aspect of choosing a spouse.
Marriage is a religious obligation. It is about rights and responsibilities. Every aspect of marriage becomes a means of reward, an act of 'ibaadah - worship.
But if one doesn't choose wisely, rightly even, then how can one achieve such rewards through marriage? If the other half encourages towards sins and transgression, how will one strive towards closeness to Allah?
The bond must be based on mutual love for Allah and a desire to gain closeness to Him, that's the purpose of marriage. But more so, to raise righteous offspring. The spouse you choose will be a role model for your child, so consider whether your prospective spouse is the role model you would like in your child's life.
A person complained to Umar RA about his disobedient child. Umar RA asked about the mother, and found that the mother was a disobedient individual. When Umar RA spoke to the child, the child complained about the name he had been given. He was named "جعل" which means toilet worm. Umar RA said "You have spoiled him before he even got a chance to spoil you!"
We understand that choosing a good spouse is greatly important. And naming your children good names is also very important. So consider these things before marriage because it's more than just romance, it's responsibilities.
May Allah make us from the righteous. آمين.
Don't marry because of Sex.
Don't marry because you are getting Old.
Don't marry because you are of Age.
Don't marry because you are Lonely.
Don't marry because you need someone to support you Financially.
Don't marry because you mistakenly got Pregnant for him.
Don't marry because you don't want to lose the Person.
Don't marry because of family Pressures.
Don't marry because you like the Idea of Marriage.
Don't marry because of Pity or out of Pity.
Don't marry because of Tribe.
Don't marry because you admire of wedding Gown you see.
Don't marry because you love kids.
Don't marry because all your friends are getting Married.
Don't marry because of Physical/ Academic Qualifications.
But, marry because you are ready to complete half our your Deen and the Sunnah of the Prophet S.A.W.
Marry because you want to fulfil Destiny.
I pray to Allah Almighty to give the best life partner to as many who truly desire to marry with the right Motives in Allah SWT. Ameen

Day 31: Health & @union_build Energy Vibes
Sleep is Your Superpower
Why sleep matters for your health:
Restores your body and repairs tissues
Strengthens memory and learning
Regulates hormones and appetite
Boosts immune defense against illness
How to improve your sleep hygiene:
Keep a consistent bedtime and wake up time and keep consistent to your mad yap
Avoid caffeine late in the day
Reduce screen time at least 30 minutes before bed
Make your sleeping space dark, cool, and quiet
Now, the Union Energy Connection
Just like quality sleep keeps the human system running smoothly without breakdowns, @union_build keeps blockchain ecosystems functioning seamlessly.
Sleep = System Optimization
Union = Chain Optimization
Both prevent chaos and inefficiency by ensuring every part of the system communicates well and works in sync.
Because whether it’s your body or a blockchain network
Stability comes from good maintenance, not constant firefighting.
Dear @union_build army, the circulating image is fake there’s no folder named airdrop.
Stay informed.
In the meantime, we’ll keep yapping about the true power of @union_build interoperability.
Big salute to @cysic_xyz for truly trying to carry the smaller accounts along.
This is exactly how projects should be, giving everyone a fair chance to shine and grow.
Fairness and inclusivity fuel real community strength.
PART 11: How Union Is Making Cross-Chain Feel Local for Devs and Wallets
One of the biggest pain points in Web3 today?
The UX of building and using cross-chain applications.
Developers are juggling multiple SDKs, wallets are stuck prompting users for manual bridging, and users are still confused about which chain they’re even on.
But @union_build is quietly changing that narrative.
Chain-Agnostic Smart Contract Calls
At the heart of Union’s UX upgrade is this idea:
How?
With ZK-proofed message passing, Union lets a smart contract on Ethereum trigger execution on another chain (like Celestia, Cosmos, or eventually Solana) as if it were happening locally.
No manual bridging.
No chain context switching.
No trust assumptions.
Just verifiable logic, from origin to destination.
Real World Example
Imagine a dApp where a user locks tokens on Polygon and claims yield on Osmosis without knowing they even left Polygon.
All logic is verified by ZK, relayed by Voyager, and triggered trustlessly across chains powered by Union.
Guys
@union_build isn’t just building infrastructure, it’s rebuilding how people experience Web3.
PART 9: The Hidden Power Behind @union_build Neutral Coordination and Economic Security
Everyone’s talking about bridges, ZK proofs, and multichain UX and so on
But almost no one is asking the real question:
Who do we actually trust to coordinate the chains?
Who decides which messages are valid, what assets move, and how execution unfolds across ecosystems?
The Real Problem with Today’s Cross-Chain World
Most “interoperability” solutions are still built on fragile foundations:
Centralized relayers
Multisigs controlled by VC-backed teams
Token-governed sequencers
Oracles that can be bribed, attacked, or manipulated
This isn’t trustless coordination.
It’s centralized middleware in a DeFi costume.
And the result?
❌ Fragile infrastructure
❌ Expensive coordination
❌ Constant risk of capture or censorship
Union’s Approach: Neutral, Cryptographic Coordination
@union_build flips the script completely:
🚫 No trusted relayers
🚫 No governance sign-offs
🚫 No multisig approvals
Instead, Union uses ZK proofs + light clients, so any chain can verify any message from any other chain Pure math, pure validity, zero trust assumptions.
Think of it as a universal verifier that speaks every chain’s language without asking for permission.
Real-World example for better understanding : The Chain-Independent NFT Launch
Meet Therapist, a digital artist preparing to launch a multichain NFT project.
Here’s his game plan:
Mint 100 limited editions on Ethereum
Airdrop rare traits to holders on Arbitrum
Unlock exclusive content on a Cosmos chain
Sell future access rights on Solana
Today, he’d need:
4 different bridges
Multiple approvals and signatures
High fees
Blind trust in multisigs or centralized relayers
With Union, Here’s How It Changes:
Therapist signs a single intent: “Mint, Drop, Unlock, Sell”
Union verifies that intent across all chains using ZK proofs
No one sees his full plan
No one can front-run or block him
Each chain only acts when it receives a valid, cryptographic proof
Execution is automatic, secure, and censorship-resistant
Therapist stays in full control.
Users enjoy seamless, multichain experiences.
And best of all, no one extracts value in the middle.
$U isn’t just a token.
It’s a bet on trustless coordination that nobody owns but everyone benefits from.
Let’s stop trusting the wires.
Let’s verify them instead.
That’s the Union thesis.
What if @union_build drops the checker and confirms the TGE date this week are you truly ready?
OR
Just yapping without grasping the ZK-powered machine set to coordinate the entire multichain future?
