Kaii Gaskiya Akwai babban aiki. Wai Dan ance wani dan malamin da baka so yabar muslunci sai kai ta murna. It’s sad that as you go about your businesses in life, there are people waiting for calamities to befall you so they can have their “didn’t I tell you” moment.
Mercy is far from us these days.

𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐧,𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐠𝐮𝐞𝐬.
That statement may sound harsh, but many people only understand it after learning an expensive lesson.
I just watched this interview where the man shared a painful experience. A colleague he had grown to trust had become a close friend. So close that the colleague had access to his workstation and email.
One day, an email arrived inviting him to indicate interest in a promotion within the organization. His "friend" deleted the email. Management assumed he wasn't interested and moved on to another candidate.
It was only much later, after his manager questioned why he ignored the opportunity, that an investigation was carried out. CCTV footage reportedly showed the colleague accessing his desk, and the colleague eventually admitted to deleting the email.
Whether out of envy, competition, or poor judgment, one simple act changed the course of another person's career.
This is why many world-class organizations have strict information security policies. Your laptop, your email, your passwords, your documents, and your credentials are your responsibility. You are accountable for everything that happens under your login.
In my organization, we are repeatedly reminded:
- Never share your credentials.
- Lock your computer whenever you step away.
- Secure your laptop physically.
- Protect confidential information.
- Treat company systems as your personal responsibility.
Some colleagues even lock their laptops in the hotel safe when going out. Others carry them everywhere. It may seem excessive until you understand what is at stake.
Beyond cybersecurity, there is a broader life lesson.
Maintain healthy relationships at work. Be respectful. Be helpful. Be collaborative. But don't confuse professionalism with unrestricted personal access. Not everyone celebrating your success wants to see you succeed. Protect your privacy. Protect your opportunities. Protect your reputation.
Trust should be earned—not assumed.
Be friendly with everyone, but be careful with access.
Your career is too valuable to leave unguarded.
@yakubwudil Thank you for the webinar on Saturday. I especially enjoyed the Q/A session. Hopefully i will reach out for guidance as requested.
May Allah reward you all abundantly 🙏👏
The book is a Muslim business administrator's guide book for businesses to consciously navigate business administration from an Islamic principles perspective.
It did a good job of seeking to discuss common business administration practices that go against Islam, and ways for one to avoid it.
It explores organization functions within businesses, how to build them to be Islamic inclined, and how to be as ibadah centric as possible.
I believe the author did a good job, and it was well researched. There are some aspects that aren't as cut and dry as he prescribed, but I do understand his need to phrase it so.
All in all, for the purpose for which I took up reading it; to understand money from a holistic perspective, this did well in serving giving me an Islamic perspective.
My intent is to read on a subject from all perspectives so I can form an informed, holistic, grounded view of it.

BANDITS STRIKE KWAKWARAN MANU, FLEE AFTER SOCIAL MEDIA ALERT TRIGGERS QUICK SECURITY ACTION!
Last night, just before 9PM, bandits stormed Kwakwaran Manu community in Sabon Gari Local Government Area of Kaduna State, while some mosques were still observing Taraweeh prayers. Locals indicate that bandits had been spotted in the area two days prior.
During the attack, the bandits shot two people and attempted to abduct a resident identified as Nura Dangote. However, thanks to the swift circulation of the alert on social media, the security response was expedited, forcing the bandits to abandon their mission and flee, leaving the victim unharmed.
Kudos to the social media community members for the rapid action in circulating the alert, which played a key role in ensuring a quick and effective response.
Hopefully, this will serve as a reminder of the power of unity and the importance of fast communication in times of crisis.

Another video was released yesterday, and his condition is clearly worsening from the torture.
Where are our leaders?
Where are our security agencies?
Do ordinary lives mean nothing in this country?
We don’t want statements we want action now.
If the government cannot protect its people, what hope is left?
May God save him, but urgent action is needed.
After saying your Witr prayer, don’t say “Astaghfirullah” x3 like it’s one of the obligatory prayers.
Say this after Witr instead:
“Subhanal-Malikil-Quddus” x3.
Raise your voice a little more and elongate the dhikr upon the third time.
You can then add to that: “Rabbil-malaa ikati warruuhi”
This is the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ
