🏆 Referee announced for 2026 #SuperCup!
We're pleased to share that Somali referee Omar Artan will officiate the highly anticipated match between PSG and Aston Villa in Salzburg.
“I remember when Qatar won the bid to host the 2022 World Cup, everyone whined and got m&d. Now it’s in America. When we hosted the World Cup, there wasn’t a single crime reported. The World Cup in the United States hasn’t even started and we’re already hearing about shootings, people being denied entry and players being interrogated. They are professional footballers, what exactly are you interrogating?”
— Qatari man calls out America and FIFA.
When parents make halal marriage harder than it needs to be, they may unintentionally push their children toward haram. If two righteous people are ready to commit, do not let money and appearances become the barrier.
SUBHANALLAH! 🌙
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us a practice over 1,400 years ago that modern research continues to highlight for its potential health benefits.
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
“When you go to bed, perform wudu as you would for prayer, then lie down on your right side.”(Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim)
This beautiful Sunnah combines both spiritual and physical wisdom:
💧 Going to sleep in a state of wudu brings purity and remembrance of Allah.🤲 The angels make du'a for the believer who sleeps in a state of purification.🛌 Sleeping on the right side is a practice encouraged by the Prophet ﷺ and is often discussed today for its possible health and comfort benefits.
For Muslims, however, we follow this guidance first and foremost because it comes from Allah's Messenger ﷺ, whose teachings are full of wisdom, mercy, and benefit for humanity.
Indeed, Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was unlettered, yet he brought guidance that continues to inspire and benefit people across generations.
May Allah make us among those who revive and follow the Sunnah in our daily lives. Ameen. 🤲
Evidence is growing that Israel shot down the US AH-64 Apache helicopter off the coast of Iran
The Apache has very sophisticated air defenses. Only a few countries could shoot it down
Israel is one of them
This evening, I was at Ikeja with my car rewire guy and I witnessed firsthand how all the mechanics apprentices in that big yard kept warning each other off some cars. “Don’t open that car, mosquitoes will enter”. I was wondering, if mosquitoes enter nko, what will happen?
Then they made me realize they all sleep in different cars everyday and only go home at the end of the year except there’s an emergency at home. Like, that’s where they live.
I nearly ran mad. Are you joking? You need to see how they guide their cars like it’s their mini home. Realizing where they all came from, it’s almost impossible to go home everyday due to cost and who will rent apartment for you in Ikeja? They took turns narrating all the styles they use to sleep. Imagine the inconvenience sitting to sleep everyday and they somehow still send money home.
The life of men just hard anyhow.

FIFA has revoked the ticket allocation for Iran fans at the team's three World Cup games in the United States.
I've never seen something like this in my life. Fling this World Cup away.
FIFA has punished countries before for not granting visas but since Infantino is Trump’s pet, now they’re pretending to be powerless as this administration makes a mockery of the tournament
