A non-Muslim woman asks her driver to turn up the volume of the Qur'an playing in his car.

The driver misunderstands her and turns it off instead. She then tells him to turn the volume up because she enjoys listening to the Qur'an. 🥹❤️

Israel is the biggest threat to the Muslim Ummah. It has carried out military actions against Muslims across the Middle East, has encouraged Western governments to adopt hostile policies toward Muslim countries, and has used media and political influence to promote narratives that contribute to hostility and discrimination against Muslim minorities in the West.

Israel bulldozed at least 500 Palestinian olive trees near Jenin in the occupied West Bank, just months before the olive harvest.

We need go back to looking at families as tribes and units of power, and move away from the individualistic definitions that have weakened our families.

[Von Ranke @ibnace3]

4 years after Mu'awiya's (ra) death, and only months after Yazid passed away, Mu'awiya II abdicated without designating a successor and left the matter to shurā.

This power vacuum fragmented the Muslim world and led to a second civil war that lasted ~9 years until Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan reunited the caliphate under Umayyad rule ..

This reflects the concern that motivated Mu'awiya (ra) to designate a successor in the first place: to preserve the relative peace that had prevailed since al-Hasan (ra) relinquished the caliphate to Mu'awiya (ra).

It also explains why the majority of the Sahaba pledged bay'ah to Yazid during Mu'awiya's (ra) reign, as an orderly succession within the Umayyad house, which had the most cohesive and loyal power base, would have been preferable to the risks of a contested succession ..

For years, India's Muslim women have been subject to online abuse.
Now researchers warn that generative AI is taking that harassment to a new level, making it easier to create fake sexualised imagery and propaganda targeting Muslim women.

I’ve been Muslim for almost 30 years and have always been open to question my faith and its evidences to make sure my life is based on faith backed by evidence. Have watched all the apologists arguments over the years and can say with absolute certainty that Islam is the right way of life and the way of life prescribed since the creation of human beings. Zero doubt in my mind.

When Israeli figures make it clear they want to start messing with Turkey, it doesn't mean they'll start bombing Turkish territory.

Expect escalation in Syria. Keep an eye not only for military operations but also information warfare, disinfo & psy-ops.

Everyone Muslims included has absorbed a flattened version of Andalusia as interfaith utopia. That’s mostly a 19th-century European Romantic and Jewish reform-movement invention, useful for arguing against their own antisemitism at home, not an accurate picture of the Umayyad or Almohad courts. The real story is more interesting and more useful: Islamic law gave a structured, legally codified framework for governing religious difference; dhimma wasn’t “everyone’s equal,” rather a covenant with specific obligations on both sides, and it produced centuries of relative stability precisely because it didn’t pretend difference didn’t exist. It managed it.

It’s relevant today because it cuts directly against two things happening right now: Western liberal universalism’s assumption that pluralism only works when it’s procedurally “neutral” and difference-blind, and the reactive Muslim tendency (post-colonial defensiveness) to either oversell convivencia as proof Islam invented tolerance, or reject the whole history as irrelevant to modern statecraft. You can position it as: the Andalusian model is neither the fairy tale nor something to be embarrassed about but a functioning alternative political theology for governing plural societies that nobody’s seriously revisited because both apologetics and orientalism flattened it for their own purposes.

You’re delusional if you think you can approach anyones womenfolk in public and use the guise of “enjoin good & forbid evil” as a gotcha, these men can also use that same pretext against you and smash your face for approaching their womenfolk…

The person quoted doesn’t know kimono.
In Japan, we’ve matched zukin (hoods) & kimono for ages. Wearing it with a hijab is totally fine!
Thank you for your interest in Japanese culture.

[Omar @omar_dddg]

One of the saddest things to me about Gaza and Palestine in general is that these people didnt choose to live like this.

Nobody made a conscious decision to live in conflict.

Just a bunch of olive farmers, orange traders, and merchants chilling in their villages who got picked on by societies forged by war.

Just born at the wrong place, in the way of a ferocious enemy.

@adil_bach Baluch are a minority, especially a Sunni minority. It’s not in their best interests to rebel.

They should let the regime collapse by itself (the regime already has lots of weaknesses, the US-Israel strikes ironically strengthened them).

[Ibn ʿAbd Allāh al-Hāshimī @hashimiyy_]

He has spoken a word of truth by which falsehood is intended.

If by “Ahl al-Bayt” one means the household whom Allah explicitly addresses in Sūrat al-Aḥzāb, namely the wives of the Prophet ﷺ, then this is true. They are placed in a category of their own by the Qur’an:

“O wives of the Prophet, you are not like any other women…” [33:32]

followed by:

“Allah only intends to remove impurity from you, O Ahl al-Bayt, and to purify you completely.” [33:33]

Thus the wives of the Prophet ﷺ possess a unique status that is not shared by others.

As for the remaining relatives of the Prophet ﷺ, their lineage is noble and their connection to him is an immense virtue.

However, they are judged according to their taqwā and deeds, just as all Muslims are. Allah says:

“Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you.” [49:13]

And the Prophet ﷺ said:

“Whoever is slowed down by his deeds, his lineage will not speed him up.”

Likewise, he ﷺ said to Fāṭimah رضي الله عنها:

“O Fāṭimah daughter of Muḥammad, ask me of my wealth whatever you wish, for I cannot avail you anything before Allah.”

Therefore, noble lineage alone does not establish superiority over the foremost Companions.

As for Sayyidunā ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib رضي الله عنه, he is among the senior Companions, one of the Ten Promised Paradise, and the fourth of the Rightly Guided Caliphs.

However, Ahl al-Sunnah have agreed that Sayyidunā Abū Bakr, then Sayyidunā ʿUmar, then Sayyidunā ʿUthmān رضي الله عنهم are superior in rank to Sayyidunā ʿAlī رضي الله عنه.

As for Sayyidunā al-Ḥasan and Sayyidunā al-Ḥusayn رضي الله عنهما, they are beloved to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and possess tremendous virtue.

However, in terms of ṣuḥbah they belong to the younger generation of Companions, alongside figures such as al-Nuʿmān b. Bashīr, ʿAbd Allāh b. al-Zubayr, and Muḥammad b. Ṭalḥah رضي الله عنهم.

Their virtue is affirmed and love for them is obligatory, however Ahl al-Sunnah do not believe that mere blood relationship automatically places someone above the foremost Companions, whose precedence, sacrifice, and rank have been established by the Qur’an, Sunnah, and consensus.

The family of the Prophet ﷺ is honored, but the criterion of superiority in Islam is not bloodline alone. Rather, it is faith, taqwā, precedence in Islam, sacrifice, and obedience to Allah.

Allah knows best.

This isn't a new phenomenon. For decades, some Western men have travelled abroad to exploit, abuse, rape, and murder women and girls. First Thailand and now Ecuador. These crimes receive only fleeting media attention unfortunately.

Thai authorities urging the 'expat' community to clean up their increasing criminal reputation.

[Ali @al_done3]

@akakar07 @yasinabdelmagid Sorry but there’s an Ijmaa among Ahlu-Sunnah including the Sufiyyah that Abu Bakr is the most superior in this Ummah after the Prophet ﷺ.

This is based on multiple sahih Hadiths, including from Ali رضي الله عنه where he confirms this. You’re propagating a batil tafdhili view.
