No matter how hard life gets, DON'T masturbate. DON'T watch porn. Practice your prayers and hit the gym. God will make a way where there seems no way.

We honour our beloved Muslim sisters who use the Hijab, Jilbaab, and Niqob during this overwhelming heat. May Allah shield you all from the heat of the grave and the flames of Hell fire 🙏.

There is a need to regulate Eid services , most especially in Lagos.

Eid gatherings are gradually becoming like Jumu'ah ; small, scattered congregations . In some places, there's now an Eid on virtually every 2/3 streets .

Every Alfa with an Asalatu group now wants to organize their own Eid, seeking the honor of leading the prayer and the money involved, overriding the collective interest we once enjoyed , where the entire Muslim Ummah in a town gathered in one common ground, shared joy and happiness, and strengthened unity.

People grow. Perspectives evolve. Context matters.

Going forward, I believe we should learn to give one another grace, regardless of gender, for opinions we once held, especially when new information, deeper understanding, or lived experiences reshape those views.

Grace should not be selective. If we believe in growth, then we must allow it, for everyone.

Holding people accountable is important, but so is acknowledging when they have evolved. Both can coexist.

Dear Michael Carrick, I am writing to inform you of what to expect on Sunday evening.

This is not the same Arteta you defeated 3-2 in 2021 as a caretaker manager of ManchesterUnited.

I wish to remind you that this is an evolved version of Arteta, who has gained experience and insight.

What you will witness on Sunday is a display of intensity, pressure, and determination that may unsettle your team.

Mikel Arteta is an individual who takes losses seriously, and given his past encounter with you, he is likely to be highly motivated.

The Emirates Stadium will be electric, and our team will apply significant pressure on your squad.

Finally, I suggest that playing a low block may not be effective, as we are likely to capitalize on set pieces, and attempting to attack us could result in conceding goals.

So,you choose wisely.

A Wrong Version of Islam

I grew up in the wrong version of Islam.
An Islam mixed with fear, not faith.
An Islam built on incantations, sacrifices, concoctions, incisions, amulets, soaps and spirits, not God.

When I was young, my Alfa would send me to look for lizards.
Me and other boys would roam uncompleted buildings, chasing them, catching some alive, killing some already dead. I became very good at it. I mastered how to catch them without stress. I was proud of that skill.

I watched him put the lizards in a pot with stems and roots of different trees. He added alligator pepper and burned everything into ashes.

I watched him put a big black cat inside a sack, slam it against the wall while it cried, fighting for its life, until the life was beaten out of it. Then he burned it into ashes.

One day I asked him if Islam permits burning animals alive in such a cruel way. His answer was always the same.
“Take care of your own life. You don’t need to worry about some things.”

And because he was the scholar, because he was the Alfa, because he was supposed to know better, we kept quiet.

His room was always packed with bottles of schnapps. Mysterious calabashes. A strange white bowl he claimed to consult. He said a spirit lived inside it and spoke clearly. You could hear the voice. But if you opened the bowl, it was just a gourd inside.

Sometimes he gave us powders while chanting incantations for minutes, mentioning the names of gods and spirits.

Later, I bought an exercise book and started writing everything down. Every charm I learned from him. That was my own account book.
Charms for good luck.
Soaps for blessings.
Charms that bullets could not penetrate.
Charms that could make a woman fall in love with you.

I wrote over a hundred of them.

For a long time, I thought this was Islam. I thought this was life.

Until I met the true Islam.
The Islam that told me all of this is shirk and idolatry.
That burning animals this way is not Islam, it is cruelty.
That consulting sand, water, spirits, bowls or calabashes is not spirituality, it is falsehood.
That fear-driven rituals are not faith.
That God does not share His power with charms, powders or spirits.

Only God knows how many Muslims are still trapped in this false version of Islam.
An Islam inherited, not understood.
An Islam mixed with culture, fear and silence.
An Islam that looks religious but has nothing to do with God.

And the most dangerous part is this.
Many of them think they are defending Islam, when in reality, they are worshipping something else entirely.
