A graduate of the Islamic University of Madinah, Dr. Hamid Choi dedicated seven years of his life translating the Holy Quran and Sahih Bukhari into the Korean language, thus becoming the first Korean Muslim to do so. He has also written over ninety Islamic books.

[The Middle East @A_M_R_M1]

🚨 A Christian woman who converted to Islam shares her reason for embracing Islam:

“When I used to commit sins, I would go to the priest and confess my sins to him. The priest would make me prostrate before him and act as if he were a ‘god’ on earth. He used to say that if the priest forgives, then God in heaven also forgives — meaning there is no forgiveness without the priest as an intermediary.

The shocking thing is that the priest knew all my secrets.

But in Islam, when I commit a sin—whether intentionally or unintentionally—I return directly to my Lord, without any intermediary, and I seek forgiveness from Him alone, without anyone knowing my secrets, not even my father or a priest.

When I wanted to understand why the priest knew our secrets and why forgiveness was only through them, I searched in Islam and found the Holy Qur’an saying:

‘They have taken their scholars and monks as lords besides Allah, and also the Messiah, the son of Mary…’

And I was amazed by another beautiful verse in the Qur’an:

‘And when My servants ask you concerning Me, indeed I am near. I respond to the call of the supplicant when he calls upon Me…’

So all praise is due to Allah for the blessing of Islam. What a great blessing it is.

There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.”

A mother’s du’a carries a weight that this world cannot measure. 🤍

There are people whose lives changed not only because of their own efforts, but because a mother stood in prayer asking Allah to guide, protect, and bless her child.

Islam teaches us that honoring our mothers is among the greatest deeds beloved to Allah. Her sacrifices are seen by Allah even when the world overlooks them.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:

“A man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, ‘Who among the people is most deserving of my good companionship?’ He said: ‘Your mother.’ The man asked, ‘Then who?’ He said: ‘Your mother.’ He asked again, ‘Then who?’ He said: ‘Your mother.’ He asked again, ‘Then who?’ He said: ‘Then your father.’”

— Sahih al-Bukhari 5971
— Sahih Muslim 2548

Allah says:

“Your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him, and that you be kind to parents.”
— Al-Qur’an 17:23

Never miss a chance to make your mother smile, serve her, and ask for her du’as. A sincere du’a from a mother can become the reason Allah places barakah, peace, protection, and success in your life.

One day, we will wish for one more conversation, one more smile, and one more du’a from her. Cherish her while you still can. ❤️

[🤍I’m Sanwo_Fatimah @ummuh_Zahra]

What happened today in the theatre… My hands don’t even feel like mine as I type this.

She didn’t come in on a stretcher.

She walked in.

Slow… unsteady… like every step cost her strength.

Her eyes were swollen from crying.
Her lips were dry.

A 39-week pregnant woman.

Almost at the finish line.

She held her belly tightly and said in a trembling voice:
“My baby hasn’t moved since morning… I feel very weak… something is not right…”

Something about the way she said it…
It didn’t sound ordinary.

It sounded like fear.
Deep fear.

We checked her immediately.

Bl00d pressure… dangérously low.

Pulse… unstable.

Then we checked the baby.

The heartbeat…

Dropping.

Fading.

Struggling.

At that moment, the air in the room changed.

Everyone knew.

This was no longer a “simple complaint.”

This was a race against déãth.

Before we could even move her properly, she suddenly grabbed her chest.

Her eyes widened.

“I feel… dizzy…”

And then

She c0llapsed.

Right there.

Her body hit the floor.

Lifeless.

No response.

No pulse.

Silence.

Then chaos.

“CALL THE CRASH TEAM NOW!”

Everything moved at once.

Oxygen.
IV lines.
Hands pressing on her chest.

“Come back! Stay with us!”

But she wasn’t responding.

And the baby…

The heartbeat was slipping away.

We didn’t have time.

We rushed her to the theatre.

Her body still.
Her eyes closed.

It felt like we were already losing her.

The anaesthetist shouted:
“We cannot wait any longer!”

The surgeon didn’t hesitate.

“Start.”

The incision was made.

Fast. Precise. Urgent.

Seconds felt like hours.

Then…

A baby girl was delivered.

But the room went quiet.

Too quiet.

No cry.

No movement.

Just silence.

The kind of silence that makes your heart sink.

We worked on her immediately.

Suction.
Stimulation.
Oxygen.

“Come on… please…”

Nothing.

Another try.

Still nothing.

You could feel the fear in the room.

Then

A faint sound.

So weak… you almost miss it.

Then another.

A cry.

Small… fragile… but alive.

The room exhaled.

But only for a second.

Because the mother…

Was still gone.

Her body lay there.

Unmoving.

Unresponsive.

We continued CPR.

Calling her name again and again.

Begging without saying the words.
Prayer in our mouth and heart

“Please… don’t leave your baby…”

Minutes passed.

Heavy. Painful minutes.

Then

A tiny movement.

Her fingers.

Just once.

Everyone froze.

“Call her again!”

We did.

Again and again.

Then slowly…

Her eyelids fluttered.

Like someone fighting their way back from somewhere far away.

Then…

She opened her eyes.

Weak.
Confused.
Lost.

But alive.

And the first thing she said…

Barely above a whisper:

“My baby… is she okay?”

That question broke something in all of us.

We brought the baby close.

The tiny cry filled the room.

And tears…

Tears rolled freely.

From her.
From us.

Because just minutes ago…

We thought we had lost both of them.

Today, the labour ward became a place of fear…
Of silence…
Of desperate prayers whispered in hearts…

And mercy answered.

Two lives stood at the edge.

And somehow…

Both came back.

To every mother reading this:

Please don’t ignore your body.
Please don’t stay silent when something feels wrong.

And even when everything looks like it’s slipping away…

Hold on.

Because sometimes…
At the very last second…

Life returns.

Today, a mother lived.
Her baby lived.

And we witnessed something we will never forget.

A miracle… that refused to be late.

[𝐀𝐥-𝐐𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧 || القرآن @Al_quraan114]

The woman in the photo is named Rola. She says she found the phrase (There is no god but Allah) engraved in Arabic script on the walls of her grandmother's house in Spain... And when she asked her mother in astonishment, her mother revealed to her secrets that had been kept for hundreds of years and told her that her ancestors were Muslims:

"Oh Rola, your ancestors lived in a time when the (Inquisition campaigns) showed no mercy, and they monitored every aspect of our lives; the people running those campaigns would first search the (bathrooms) as soon as they entered the house; because your ancestors were the pinnacle of cleanliness and purity, using water in the bathroom instead of paper towels.

They monitored water consumption; so anyone who bathed a lot or purified their home and sprinkled the courtyards with water would immediately be accused of performing ablution and praying... And their punishment was death! So they would purify their homes in complete secrecy and with extreme caution.

The Quran and prayer beads:

Finding a piece of paper with an Arabic letter or (prayer beads) meant the end for that person... So they would engrave the declaration of faith inside the stone and cover it with paint, and they would count prayers with their fingers inside their pockets.

A tongue that bears witness to the truth:

To this day, Spaniards utter words like (ojalá) whose origin is (inshallah), and the word (olá) whose origin is (wallah), and even the word (cabreír) to describe cruelty, taken from (kafir), which our ancestors used to describe those who betrayed the covenant and double-crossed the Muslims at that time.

My daughter, even in death, your ancestors would deceive death to keep their faith alive... So to this day, in villages in southern Spain, when someone passes away, people recite mournful melodies and ambiguous words like (laila... laila) or (lala e lala).. They think it's just a tune for farewell, but the truth that our ancestors hid from the eyes of the Inquisition courts is that it's a distortion of the declaration of faith (There is no God but Allah).. They would teach the deceased Muslims the testimony through 'the melody' so the authorities wouldn't understand, and the word remained on the tongues of the descendants as a 'sound' after its original meaning was lost in the hearts for hundreds of years."

And in the end, Rola announced her decision, saying: "After everything I've learned, I can no longer stay silent.. I must now be a Muslim just like my ancestors, I want to return to their true image and carry the trust they engraved on the walls with their blood and souls."

And Rola recounts with heartache what happened after her conversion to Islam: "Since entering Islam, I've started crying for them by days, weeks, and months.. I would ask myself bitterly: I wonder what you must have felt, my ancestors, when the inquisitors entered your homes to search them? What was your feeling in those moments? With every nightfall, and with every prostration I make now, my tears pour forth with longing and pain for what they endured."

I felt like crying today after hearing the story of this old man.
Norms I always met him in Ramadan evening tafsir every day. The old man you are seeing is more than 70 years old. They share iftar (food) every day in that mosque that's immediate after tafsir. (Since Ramadan Day 1)
Today, i noticed that the old man sat down in a separate angle secretly in tears 😢 💔 like first time seeing an old man in an extreme bad mood.
After the tafsir, we observe majrib prayer. I patiently waited for him to be on his way going home, then I moved near him to at least ask him that "What's going on?"
Alhamdullillahi, he responded, but with tears.
According to him, his greatest fear was that "How is he going to survive after Ramadan?"
I WILL ONLY PICK UP THE POINTS TO AVOID LONG TALK...
He lost his wife in just a few weeks to Ramadan.
His only child has left and never returned home since more than 8 years ago.
His late wife was a pap (EKỌ TUTU) seller during her lifetime. They both depend on the business 💔
The only way he keeps sustaining since the day one of Ramadan is just through the food he collects daily after Tafsir, and also one's in a while if the neighbour feels like to help him.
Now, Ramadan is gradually going to an end 😢
I followed him home, and his neighbours also confirmed it. They also told me more about how he's struggling.
Listen to the voice note I sent.

Kindly note that I was the one who blocked the man's picture. I dont want to just expose his face...
The message is received from BROTHER TAOFEEQ AJANI, a corps member from Kaduna state who is serving in kwara state.
The man's location is REKE VILLAGE, ASA LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA.

The Question Is:
How can we help this man?????

I only have 3 suggestions
●Ramadan will soon end, please, if you come across this post and you are from kwara state (keep a little out of your zakatu fitr, which will call JAKA in ilorin for this man)
Please 🙏 I will just post how we will gather it up so t

My wife Yara tells me that the world has forgotten us, that no one is thinking about us anymore, and that she has lost hope.

But I told her that the world still thinks about us, and that many people love us and stand with us.

So I posted this tweet to prove to her that there are still many people who care about us and who love our children, Imad and Adam.

So my friend, if you see this, please leave a 🍉 or 🇵🇸 or even just a dot(.).
It gives my family hope and strength.
