At Apple, we believe that climate change is one of the world’s most urgent priorities and we are deeply committed to doing our part. Today we had a special guest—a real force of nature—stop by to check on our progress.
Alhamdulillah, this is one of the blessings of humbleness, the ability to admit one’s mistakes when it becomes clear that a mistake was made.
Hopefully now people can stop DMing me asking me about Forex over & over again. It’s haraam, but Bitcoin isn’t

1) We should enjoin the good and forbid the evil by:
a - warning against the evil in the land for example we warn against music in general and specifically music concerts
b - we do so without mentioning the rulers/governments
c - by doing so we do not rile up the people
Tell me what worldview ties a metaphysical consequence of losing out on the reward for charity simply by publicizing your generosity?
The sincere believer gives for the sake of God Alone, without expecting anything in return.
Incredible. Just makes so much sense intuitively.
Do not waste your acts of charity by reminders of your generosity or causing harm, as does he who spends his wealth only to be seen by people, and does not believe in God and the Last Day.
The example of his spending is that of a rock with dust on it: when the heavy rain falls, it leaves the rock bare. Such people gain nothing from their charity. God does not guide those who refuse to accept the truth.
~ Qur’an 2:264

'And donate from what We have provided for you before death comes to one of you, and you cry, “My Lord! If only You delayed me for a short while, I would give in charity and be one of the righteous.” But God never delays a soul when its appointed time comes.'
~ Qur'an 63: 10-11
Controversial opinion (maybe) but most of these climbers and extreme thrill seekers are typical narcissists and awful people in general. Spending resources and risking their lives to make a statement that does literally nothing else but stroke their own egos
