These are our Eid al-Adha Checklist and Sunnah to Uphold on this Day
They are in 4 phases;
Phase 1: Before Leaving the House
1. Performing a full ritual bath (Ghusl) before heading out to the prayer ground.
2. Wearing your absolute best, cleanest clothes and applying perfume (for men).
3. Delaying eating anything until you return from the Eid prayer to eat from your sacrifice.
4. Ensuring your entire family is ready to come along, including women, children, and even menstruating women who can sit nearby to witness the blessings of the day.
Phase 2: On the Way to the Prayer Ground
1. Heading out early to the prayer ground to secure your spot in the front rows.
2. Walking to the prayer ground on foot if you are physically able, rather than driving.
3. Moving toward the Eid prayer ground while loudly reciting the Takbeer.
4. Giving charity to the poor and needy on your way to or from the prayer ground to share the joy.
5. Smiling, showing happiness, and spreading peace to everyone you pass, whether you know them or not.
Phase 3: At the Eid Prayer Ground (Musalla)
1. Performing the Eid prayer outdoors in an open field (Musalla) rather than inside a regular mosque, unless weather forces you inside.
2. Avoiding any voluntary prayers (Nafl) before or after the Eid prayer while at the prayer ground itself.
3. Listening quietly to the Eid sermon (Khutbah) after the prayer is completed before leaving.
4. Congratulating your fellow believers with the traditional greeting: Taqabbalallahu minna wa minkum (May Allah accept it from us and from you).
Phase 4: The Return and the Sacrifice
1. Changing your route on the way back home so you return using a completely different road.
2. Slaughtering your sacrificial animal (Udhiyah) immediately after the Eid prayer is finished, not before.
3. Eating the liver of your sacrificial animal as the very first meal of the day if you are slaughtering.
4. Ensuring that the meat from your sacrifice is divided properly into three parts: for your household, for gifts to friends/neighbors, and for charity to the poor.
Taqaballahu Minna Wa Minkum 🙏

Nine lives = Nine distinct portions of provision.
It was reported that the Moroccan government is the one sponsoring them. It’s a beautiful reminder the One who creates the life always sends the means to sustain it. And seeing them turn five is living proof that when the Destiny-Pen moved, every single one of them was accounted for.

Since the past 24 hours that I made the tweet on child parenting solution, my DM has been buzzing. I checked them, and one thing was quite common to all: Parents who are not happy about their kid’s performance in school, and they have approached it the wrong way.
If you fall in this category, this post is for you.
Many of us use brutal force because expectations are too high, and the anger is just too much. The scholar Ibn al-Jawzi explained in his book Sayd al-Khatir that intellect is a Rizq (provision) from God, just like money or health.
He said some people are born with a wide vessel and others with a narrow one. If you try to force the water of a whole sea into a small cup, you will only spill the water and ruin the cup. This is what many of us are doing. We are trying to force a "doctor's brain" into a child whose cup was designed for something else.
By that, it causes a soul-crushing resentment in the child. Imam Al-Ghazali described this beautifully in Ihya’ Ulum al-Din. He warned parents about a state called “Al-Malal”, where a child builds resentment because they are pushed beyond their limit. Everyone wants the best for their child. No doubt. However, if you keep yelling at them for things they cannot grasp yet, you make them hate the very sight of a book. You are closing the door to their heart while trying to kick open the door to their mind.
Then what is the solution? It is simple.
Going forward, every parent should make efforts to start looking for the Fath (the opening) in their kids. What does this mean? This is the lane the Almighty has prepared for them. In our history, if a child is slow with grammar or math, the scholars don’t call them a failure. They move them to a trade, a craft or a service.
How then do you identify this Fath (Opening) in your child? Please pay close attention to me…
(1) The first phase is Observation. Ibn al-Qayyim mentioned a concept called Istid’ad (natural readiness) in his book titled: Tuhfat al-Mawdud. This means you want to watch/observe/look at the child when they think nobody is looking. This is your first tool. For the next two weeks, stop talking about school. Do not worry yourself about how they perform on their homework.
Instead, keep a "Strength Log." Every evening, write down one thing they did well that had nothing to do with a classroom. Did they fix a broken toy? Did they calm down a crying sibling? Did they organise their shoes? You are looking for their Istid’ad (natural readiness). If they are "book-slow" but "people-smart" or "hand-smart," that is where the key has been placed.
(2) Introduce “Project or Craft” early on. Ibn Khaldun, in his Muqaddimah, argued that projects/crafts are high forms of intelligence that build civilizations. He argued that some minds are designed to understand the physical world better than the abstract one.
Give them a "Project Day." Buy a basic tool kit, a sewing machine, or a coding starter kit. Give them a broken radio or a piece of furniture to fix. Delegate. Give them a real-world task that has a visible result. When a child who fails at math sees that they can build a table or bake a perfect loaf of bread, their internal shame starts to heal. They realize they are not stupid; they were just in the wrong room.
(3) Kill the Comparison Virus. Imam Al-Zarnuji, in his classic work Ta’lim al-Muta’allim, explained that a student should only study what fits their nature. He said that forcing a student into a field they have no taste for is a waste of their life and the teacher's time. When you compare your child to others, you are catching a virus that blinds you to their path. Always filter.
When family members start bragging about their kids' grades, you must be the shield. Tell them, "My child is mastering the art of (so so and so)." You are teaching your child that success is not a single ladder. There are many ladders to it. And if you do not value their ladder, they will stop climbing.
(4) Prioritize Character Building. Put more efforts to praise your kids for their good character. Always tell them you love them when they behave well or show good character. Character recognition helps the child build a good self-image, which translates into self-confidence and barrier-breaking for the child. Prioritise this.
(5) Don’t underestimate the power of your words. Always pray to God to grant them their opening. The scholars taught that the "opening" is a gift from Al-Fattah (The Opener). Supplicate.
In your Sujud or in your prayers, stop asking for them to be a doctor/engineer, and what have you. Ask for the door that was made for them to be opened. Ask Him to show you the Fath so you can stop pushing them against a closed wall.
Always remember, a parent who finds the "Fath (The Opening)" for their child has given them a gift better than a degree. You have given them a purpose. Start that journey NOW. It’s never too late…
Thank you for your attention.
Allah knows best.
Lagos will humble you, no jokes.
I was jobless for 4 months.
Rent was close.
Account balance was just there… like ₦200k.
Then I saw a job asking for 2–3 years experience
in something I barely knew.
I said… we move.
Crammed small things online,
entered the interview with full confidence.
Next thing… I got the job
Now it’s 3 weeks in…
Every day na survival mode.
Google, YouTube, ChatGPT… na my real colleagues.
The funny part?
My boss is praising me 😂
At this point…
I don’t even know if I’m faking it…
or I’m actually getting good.
This actually happened. TechCabal. Techpoint. October 2023.
Fidelity Bank woke up one morning and blocked transfers to OPay, PalmPay, Moniepoint, and Kuda.
Just like that.
Millions of Nigerians who depended on those platforms for daily transactions — blocked.
No prior announcement. Their bank simply refused to send money to their neobank accounts.
Fidelity's reason: the neobanks' KYC processes were too weak. Fraudsters were using neobank wallets to receive and move stolen funds because the onboarding checks were not tight enough.
Wema Bank had already done the same thing earlier...in which they removed seven fintechs from its payment gateway entirely.
This is what happens when your compliance is not taken seriously.
It is not just the regulators who come for you. Other financial institutions stop trusting your platform.
They cut you off from their customers.
And their customers who also happen to be your users suffer in the middle.
The CBN eventually responded. December 2023: mandatory BVN or NIN for every Tier 1 account. No exceptions.
But between the loopholes being exploited and the regulation arriving, billions moved through accounts that should never have been opened.
In fintech, your KYC is not just a compliance checkbox.
It is your reputation with every bank in the ecosystem.
Weak KYC does not just expose your users.
It gets you cut off from the rails you depend on to function.
A First Bank employee named Tijani Muiz Adeyinka worked on the electronic products team.
His job gave him legitimate access to process reversals for customers.
He used that access to credit merchant accounts with money that was not theirs.
The fraudulent postings went to his wife's Zenith Bank account first.
From there to 34 other accounts.
Which then spread to 1,190 secondary accounts across multiple banks.
By the time First Bank noticed and reported it to the Nigeria Police Force on March 25, 2024...the figure had grown from ₦12 billion to ₦40 billion.
He was already on the run.
Three court orders across Lagos and Jalingo were obtained to freeze accounts.
Some of the money had already been converted to USDT through crypto traders.
This is what insider fraud actually looks like in Nigerian banking.
Not a dramatic hack.
A staff member. A privileged function. No second authorization required.
If your system allows any single person to trigger financial transactions without a second approval layer that is your vulnerability.
Segregation of duties is not bureaucracy.
It is what stands between your system and ₦40 billion walking out the door.
As a first step, we are launching NaijaCivicTech, an open source platform where Nigerian in tech curate and build tiny tools that solve specific Nigerian problems together
this is not a startup, not a pitch deck, just working software in the open, built for Nigeria for ease.
The current goal is to achieve two things:
1. Community to curate all existing tools that have attempted to solve a problem but are not well known.
2. Community to suggest problems, tools and project that solves a specific problem
It's day 1, let's see how far we can go.
What if Nigerian tech came together to build tiny tools that actually fix Nigerian problems?
Not startups, not pitches, just working prototypes.
eVoting, politician profile log, power outage maps, and any other tools suggested by the community.
Small tools with real impact and open source.
This will allow us know what is needed and how to solve our society problems with tech.

🚨 CRITICAL: Active supply chain attack on axios -- one of npm's most depended-on packages.
The latest [email protected] now pulls in [email protected], a package that did not exist before today. This is a live compromise.
This is textbook supply chain installer malware. axios has 100M+ weekly downloads. Every npm install pulling the latest version is potentially compromised right now.
Socket AI analysis confirms this is malware. plain-crypto-js is an obfuscated dropper/loader that:
• Deobfuscates embedded payloads and operational strings at runtime
• Dynamically loads fs, os, and execSync to evade static analysis
• Executes decoded shell commands
• Stages and copies payload files into OS temp and Windows ProgramData directories
• Deletes and renames artifacts post-execution to destroy forensic evidence
If you use axios, pin your version immediately and audit your lockfiles. Do not upgrade.
Most people (including many Muslims) still don’t get the concept of Ramadan fasting at all… at all o.
The funniest thing is that “hunger (food abstinence) is the least of all the constraints and restraints that come with Ramadan.
1. The first most obvious and strenuous struggle is thirst.
You’d think 13+ hours of thirst is a joke until you embark on it. And this isn’t even about the oral craving of liquid alone, but the extreme physiological demand for fluid.
Easiest way to dehydration, headaches, dizziness, and generalized fatigue.
2. There are tons of other restrictions, especially abstinence from every form of distractive pleasure.
Naturally, you would feel like playing games, listening to music, watching movies, and all should help you while away time. Unfortunately, there are strong restrictions against these things for Muslims fasting Ramadan. In fact, if we were upright enough, no fasting Muslim should staying online scrolling and wasting their Ajr (reward) and time while fasting.
Now, imagine being extremely dehydrated, bored and fatigued, yet you have to restrict from every form of rewardless activities for 13+ hours.
3. Fasting Ramadan is useless without keeping all other pillars of faith. While fasting, no matter how tired you get, you must pray your five daily Salah at the right time.
You are also expected to engage in a lot of rewarding activities like Nawaafil, charity, Tilaawah, Adhkaar… Imagine you’re reciting the Quran with a dried throat, dehydrated body, weary eyes and heavy head.
4. Fasting Ramadan is not an excuse for idleness.
If you have an active job or business, you are expected to actively participate in your means of livelihood.
Now, you’re dehydrated, fatigued, bored, and have to show up to work in the sun or under stressful conditions.
5. Fasting Ramadan is COMPULSORY on every adult, sane, healthy Muslim (except some excluded groups) without any compromise.
Meaning, for 30 days consecutively, you have to rinse and repeat. No excuses. No voluntary breaks.
6. Ramadan is not just food abstinence during the day. It is also the observance of Taraaweh at late night, early rising before dawn for Tahajjud and Suhoor, keeping abstinent during the day, keeping steadfast in worship throughout the month.
You MUST observe all these for 29/30 CONSECUTIVE days without compromise.
Even if you managed to endure a single day of all these, come back after 30 days of such steadfastness and repeat that Ramadan is just you “skipping lunch”.
7. Finally, the Quran already tipped us off: the kuffs will never agree with us, and we are very okay with it.
If you still find this lenient and cheap compared to your own religion fasts… Alhamdulillah, and congratulations to us — our own Lord and Creator doesn’t ask for more, and we appreciate His mercy and benevolence on us (for giving us an easy way), and we will keep striving ONLY for His mercy, and not your validations.
Alhamdulillahi Robbi l-‘Aalameen. 🤲❤️😎
Eid Mubarak in advance, Muslim Ummah. 🎁🎊
Throughout Ramadan, you observed your 5 daily prayers with consistency, and even went further, standing each night for 20 rakahs of Taraweeh.
You set aside smoking, alcohol, and habits that once felt inseparable from your routine, all for the sake of Allah.
And now, Ramadan draws to a close, look at yourself still here, healthy, steady, and whole.
What a subtle & powerful realization that you were never incapable. You have already lived this life, even if only for a month.
So perhaps the question is not whether you can continue, but whether you will allow yourself to.
Eid Mubarak, Taqobbalallahu minna wa minkum ❤️
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
