Beware of internet demagogues ⚠️
It is easy to destroy & spread corruption.
It is easy to demonize communities & point out their ills.
It is easy to play on the prejudice of the people.
Reformation requires time & sacrifice.
The best example is the Prophet ﷺ so follow him!
إذا صلح القلب فيما بينه وبين الله عز وجل وأناب إلى الله وصار ذاكرا لله تعالى خائفاً منه مخبتاً إليه عاملاً بما يرضي الله عز وجل فهذا هو الكريم عند الله وهذا هو الوجيه عنده وهذا هو الذي لو أقسم على الله لأبره.
📖 (شرح رياض الصالحين ج3 ص52) #ابن_عثيمين
لايجوز حضور المهرجانات التي يكون فيها أغاني ومغنيين أو أغاني ومغنيات أو اختلاط بين الرجال والنساء وبذل الأموال في الوصول إلى ذلك حرام لأن ذلك إضاعة للمال وبذل له فيما لا يرضي الله تعالى ونسأل الله العافية وأن يعصمنا وإخواننا المسلمين من أسباب سخطه وعقوبته.
Sh Fawzan said ignorance is of 2 types; not having knowledge and not having hilm, perseverance, overlooking, patience, gentleness and kindness. Yaa Rabb forgive us our shortcomings.
ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb said:
It is not permissible for a Muslim who hears a word from his brother to interpret it in a bad way while he can find for it a good interpretation.
He also said:
Whoever does not give others the benefit of the doubt deprives himself of its benefits.
To the parents who claim they love their children, yet allow music and other corrupt influences to fill their homes and shape their children — then do not blame anyone when those same children grow up lost, misguided, imprisoned, involved in gangs, violence, drugs, robbery, or become shameless and immoral. May Allah protect our beautiful children.
The child who needed guidance, protection, discipline, and reminders of Allah was instead handed over to the influences of the dunya by emotional parents who justified evil and normalized corruption. Then when the consequences appear, tears are shed and blame is placed everywhere except where it belongs.
Children are an amānah from Allah — not toys to entertain, nor souls to sacrifice for trends, desires, and temporary enjoyment. A righteous parent protects their children’s hearts, minds, religion, and character before it is too late.
May Allah guide the parents and protect our children from misguidance and corruption. Āmīn.
Don't Let ❝i've Been in The Daʿwah for Thirty Years!❞ Betray You (Again!)
Ibn Taymiyyah (raḥimahullāh) said,
❝A person could be from amongst the most intelligent of scholars and the sharpest in scrutiny, but Allāh can blind him to the most apparent of affairs. While a person could be from amongst the most dimwitted of people and the weakest in scrutiny, but Allāh can grant him guidance with His permission towards the truth in that which has been differed over. So there is no might or power except with Allāh. Therefore, whoever relies only upon his ability of scrutiny, reasoning, intelligence and comprehension will be dismayed.❞

Translation: Zubayr ʿAbbāsī
بعضُ الأحبة، وممّن يرى نفسه من طلبة العلم ومحبي أهله، تمرّ على صفحته فلا تكاد تجد فيها نشرًا للعلم، مع أن العلم حياة القلوب وزكاة العقول.
وقد قيل:
من حاز العلمَ وذاكرهُ *** حسنت دنياهُ وآخرتُه
فأدم للعلمِ مذاكرةً *** فحياةُ العلمِ مذاكرتُه
ولقد كان السلف يتواصون بنشر العلم ومذاكرته، لا يكتفون بحفظه لأنفسهم، بل يرونه أمانةً تُبلَّغ ونورًا يُنشر.
ومن نعم الله علينا في هذا الزمان هذه الوسائل التي يسّر بها سبل الدعوة، فاجعلوها – رحمكم الله – شاهدةً لكم لا عليكم، واملؤوها بما ينفع من علمٍ نافعٍ أو تذكيرٍ صادق.
ومن أعظم النعم أيضًا أن جمعت هذه المنصات بينك وبين إخوانٍ فضلاء، ومشايخ، وطلبة علم، تتواصل معهم وأنت في بيتك، فاغتنم هذه الفرصة، واستفد منهم، وزد نفسك من الخير.
وفقني الله وإياكم لكل خير.
Best investment you will ever make:
1. Condition= Faith
2. Capital needed= Days of your life
3. Requirement= Belief in Allāh & His Messenger, and to strive for Allah with your self & wealth
4. Profits= Forgiveness, Paradise, salvation from Hell, victory & imminent conquest
The roots of all sins stem from three:
•Arrogance
•Greed
•Jealousy
To find true happiness, we must cleanse our hearts of these and strive to cultivate their opposites:
•Humility
•Contentment
•Loving good for others
Be honest and look in the mirror.
This is the nerve of the tooth which, if it became inflamed, the earth, despite all its vastness, would feel tight around you.
'There are signs on earth for those with sure faith, as there are within yourselves. Can you not see?’ - (al-Dhāriyāt, 51:21)
None of us are getting any younger.
Life passes like a single, fleeting moment.
Instead of striving to impress the world, focus on becoming a better human being—and on setting a living example for your spouse, your children, and your family. Long before reputations are formed in public, they are established at home.
I heard more than one of our elder scholars say: the people who truly know a person are their family. Few short and concise statements are more powerful—or more accurate.
Show up for them every day. They are worth it. They matter most. Be bright, radiant souls who illuminate the lives of those closest to them—those who feel your presence not through words, but through consistency, warmth, and care.
Show your children what a loving, dignified marriage looks like. Do not coast through marriage or parenthood on autopilot. Do not take blessings for granted, for blessings are withdrawn when entitlement replaces gratitude.
To be genuine as a spouse and a parent requires intention, presence, and self-awareness. It means caring about the small things. It means paying attention to details that others overlook. What you are building is precious—and it deserves the effort.
Build a legacy so honorable that your great-grandchildren will speak of your marital relationship with affection and pride.
Know that you are a pioneering generation, navigating a vast wilderness of opportunity and trial. You are not wandering aimlessly—you are charting paths where none existed before. Guide your flock with vigilance and mercy—away from valleys where predators lurk and danger lies concealed, and toward high ground where faith, dignity, and safety are preserved.
May Allah protect our Muslim households, make them sanctuaries of warmth and joy, shield them from fitnah and calamity, and reunite us with our loved ones in everlasting gardens.
إنه ولي ذلك والقادر عليه، إنه على كل شيء قدير وبالإجابة جدير
Ibn al-Qayyim said:
A single word may be said by two people:
one intends by it the greatest falsehood,
while the other intends by it pure truth.
What matters is the way of the speaker, his conduct, his madhhab, and what he calls to and argues for.

The righteous predecessors [as-Salaf aṣ-Ṣāliḥ] used to strive in completing their deeds with excellence and perfection. Then, even after that, they would still worry about whether their deeds were accepted or rejected. These are the ones described in the verse:
“𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 [𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆] 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲 [𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀] 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝗿 [𝘄𝗵𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗮𝗹𝗺𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗿 𝗻𝗼𝘁], 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗟𝗼𝗿𝗱 [𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗸𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴].” [𝖲𝗎̄𝗋𝖺𝗁 𝖺𝗅-𝖬𝗎’𝗆𝗂𝗇𝗎̄𝗇 𝟨𝟢]
This is the state of the believer with acts of obedience, and his condition upon completing them.
al-Ḥasan al-Baṣrī [رحمه الله] said:
“𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝗿 [𝗼𝗳 𝗿𝗲𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻], 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝘆𝗽𝗼𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗹 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆.”
They [as-Salaf aṣ-Ṣāliḥ] were more concerned about the acceptance of their deeds than the deeds themselves, as Allāh said [that which means]:
“𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗱, 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝗮̄𝗵 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗲𝗼𝘂𝘀 [𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗛𝗶𝗺].” [𝖲𝗎̄𝗋𝖺𝗁 𝖺𝗅-𝖬𝖺̄’𝗂𝖽𝖺𝗁 𝟤𝟩]
Abū Dardāʾ [رضي الله عنه] said:
“𝗜𝗳 𝗜 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝗮̄𝗵 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗺𝗲, 𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗶𝘁.”
So ask Allāh, The Most High, to accept what you have done of righteous deeds, and to grant you steadfastness upon them until death.
Shaykh Dr. Khālid ibn Ḍaḥwī al-Ẓafīrī @almadani_k حفظه الله
