Must have been a rough tenure track.

So when someone says something like that, it can be more about honoring you, showing respect, keeping the energy warm… not always a fixed appointment.

If you don’t know this, you keep taking things too literally and end up confused or disappointed.

There's a form of censorship that I had not reckoned with up to now, for some reason. It's censorship through policing people's timelines. Enough Kenyans have told me that a repost, like or comment on my posts gets them into trouble with their friends or Whatsapp groups.

Shame on you if you're doing this to other Kenyans. If you want to remain narrow-minded, don't force people to join you through passive aggression. That's cowardly.

A true story from a mosque in Yemen — and everyone who heard it burst into laughter.

Sheikh Abu Imad narrates:

A man passed away in our neighborhood, and after the funeral, the bier used to carry him was left outside the mosque overnight. Around 3:30 a.m., someone came to pray but found the mosque locked. It was freezing, so when he saw the bier covered with a blanket, he climbed inside, took the mattress, and fell asleep inside the bier.

Half an hour later, the mosque caretaker arrived, saw the bier, and assumed a body had been brought for a funeral prayer. When people came for Fajr, they helped place the bier near the mihrab, and everyone lined up for prayer, half-asleep.

In the second rak‘ah, the bier suddenly began to move. Shock spread through the rows as the man inside woke up, lifted the cover, and calmly asked:

“Did you already pray?!”

Chaos exploded. People ran out barefoot, someone fell into the ablution pool, some hit the wall in panic, and the imam even fainted. The mosque emptied in seconds.

Even the man from the bier ran outside with them, shouting, “What happened? Is it the Day of Judgment?”
And when people saw him running behind them, they sprinted even faster.

He kept yelling, “Why didn’t you wake me for Fajr?!” without realizing he was the reason everyone fled.

"I believe God is just. God created all people equal. We all have the same organs. Except that when it comes to the brain, at the scientific level once again, the majority of us do not exploit 10% of our brains. And it is through work that we exploit the full potential of our minds. Let's acknowledge that we are lazy. We do not work."

Address of Ibrahim Traore, president of Burkina Faso to academic researchers.

As we say at #MaishaKazini, there's no knowledge without doing the work.

Whoever has rights to the Kalamashaka/Ukoo Flani discography needs to sit with those guys & agree on a revenue split then upload all their music on streaming platforms so Wakadinali + Toxic lyrikali fans can understand who had to walk before their favs could run with Sheng.
