I served the federal government for 10 years and left the civil service at GL 14 - CONMESS 04. And you know how much my monthly pension is - 74k and those that wait until retirement and left at GL 17 - CONMESS 07 are collecting around 125k monthly as pension.
This is the job security that you are been promised. Young men and women run while you can there’s nothing in the civil service unless if you’re aiming to pilfer which is becoming almost impossible to reach that level
A word is enough for the wise

I used to buy those cheap sunglasses from the roadside all the time and always thought, "What's the point of buying expensive ones? I'm going to loose them anyway." Then one day, I gathered the courage and bought an expensive sunglasses. And guess what? I still have them. I've taken care of them ever since.
That's when I realized those cheap sunglasses weren't getting lost because they were cheap? They were getting lost because I didn't value them enough to care. It's hard to accept, but sometimes in someone else's story, you are that cheap pair of sunglasses.

In 1987, Baba Adeleke bought land in Ibeju-Lekki.

It cost him ₦12,000.

He was a primary school teacher. It took him three years to save that money.

He built nothing on it. Just held it. Told his four children it was their future.

He died in 2019 believing he had given them something.

He had no idea what he had actually given them.

Dear Parents,

I want to share one parenting secret with you. The one you won’t find in your regular blogs. And trust me, regardless of your faith, you will find this tip beneficial.

I want to explain why some kids become completely stubborn the more you punish them. I am doing this because I got some messages yesterday from people who have kids in the diaspora and how their kids have become stone-hearted to their parents’ warnings. It is indeed painful.

Remember that I mentioned the monumental book of Imam Al-Ghazali, Ihya’ Ulum al-Din. We have more things to learn from it.

In this book, he talked about a fragile part of a child's mind called the “Veil of Shame.” Note: Every child has this because they are born upon Fitrah (purity of the soul).

When a child does something bad for the first time, they usually try to hide it. They are afraid of being caught because they still value their dignity in your eyes.

The scholars explained that if a parent exposes the child, screams, yells at them, and punishes every mistake, you are tearing down their veil of shame.

Once a child realizes you already see them as a bad person, the humiliation has happened. They stop caring. You have destroyed their internal brakes. When they have no dignity left to protect, they will start doing those bad things openly and boldly.

How do you notice this in your child?

You can tell this is happening in your child when they stop trying to hide their mistakes and start becoming brazen or "strong-headed" when caught. This is a sign that the veil is thinning.

To fix this, you need to use a concept called Taghaful. It translates to intentional ignorance or pretending you did not see a fault.

Our Prophet (peace be upon him) taught us this. He did this with a young companion called Usama bin Zaid. But I see that our parents, due to their high expectations, are often too impatient to look away.

If you catch your child doing a hidden wrong, sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is pretend you did not see it. Do not confront them and strip them of their respect.

Instead, bring up the topic later in a general conversation. Tell a story about why that action is destructive, without looking at them or accusing them. Let their own conscience do the punishing. Let them repent and fix it in secret.

A parent who hunts down every small mistake will end up raising a child who has no shame left to lose.

Let me know if you want more of these scholarly parenting tips. I will be willing to share. My DM is full with different issues. I cannot answer everything, but I am sure with these tips, a lot of those issues will be solved by God’s grace.

Thank you for your attention.

Allah knows best.

I own a small bakery. Business has been slow. Rent is up. I was thinking about closing.

Last Friday, a teenager came in. He looked nervous. He counted out change for a cookie. He was short 50 cents.

"It's okay," I said. "Take it."

He ate it at a table, looking at his math homework. He looked stuck.

I used to be a math tutor.

I walked over. "Quadratic equations?"

He nodded. "I don't get it."

I sat down and helped him for 20 minutes. He got it. He left smiling.

The next day, he came back with two friends. They bought cookies.

The day after that, five kids came.

Apparently, he told the school, "The lady at the bakery helps with homework."

Now, my bakery is the after-school hang-out spot. It's loud. It's messy. There are backpacks everywhere.

Yesterday, I found a note in the tip jar. It was wrapped around a $20 bill.

"Thanks for helping my son pass math. A Mom."

I'm not closing the bakery.

I think I finally found my purpose.

It's not cookies. It's community.

[Life in Saudi Arabia @LifeSaudiArabia]

🇸🇦 A 78-year-old man was admitted to a private Saudi hospital after collapsing from fatigue. He was placed on oxygen for 24 hours, and Alhamdulillah, he recovered soon after.

When the doctor 👨⚕️ handed him a bill of SR 2,000, the man began to cry. The doctor gently said, “Please don’t cry, I’ll pay the bill myself.”

The elderly man replied,
“I’m not crying because of the bill — I can afford it.
I’m crying because I just realized that I’ve been breathing Allah’s air for 78 years, and I never paid a single riyal.
If 24 hours of oxygen costs SR 2,000, then how much do I owe Allah for a lifetime of His blessings?”

The doctor lowered his head in tears. 😢

Malam Ali Dogo was buried in 1935. That means it’s now 90 years since he was laid to rest.

Yet, he only lived 27 years — born in 1908 and died in 1935.

Think about it...

A man who spent just 27 years on earth has now spent 90 years in the grave — and counting.

Let this humble you.

Don’t let the pursuit of 40, 50, or even 90 years of enjoyment blind you from preparing for thousands of years beneath the earth.

This world is temporary. Prepare for the permanent.

[Bashir Ahmad, OON @BashirAhmaad]

Full text of the Last Sermon (Khutbatul Wada’) delivered by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) during his final pilgrimage at Mount Arafat on the 9th of Dhul Hijjah, 10 AH (632 CE).

“O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether after this year I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you very carefully and take these words to those who could not be present here today.

O People, just as you regard this month, this day, and this city as sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your Lord, and that He will indeed reckon your deeds.

Allah has forbidden you to take usury (interest), therefore all interest obligations shall henceforth be waived. Your capital is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer any inequity. Allah has judged that there shall be no interest, and that all the interest due to Abbas ibn Abdul-Muttalib (Prophet’s uncle) shall henceforth be waived.

Beware of Shaytan, for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.

O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to your women, but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives only under Allah’s trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right, then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them, for they are your partners and committed helpers.

And it is your right that they do not make friends with anyone of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste.

O People, listen to me in earnest: worship Allah, offer your five daily prayers, fast during the month of Ramadan, and give your wealth in zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to.

All mankind is from Adam and Eve. An Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab, nor does a non-Arab have any superiority over an Arab; a white has no superiority over a black, nor does a black have any superiority over a white—except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood.

Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not, therefore, do injustice to yourselves.

Remember, one day you will appear before Allah and answer for your deeds. So beware, do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.

O People, no prophet or messenger will come after me, and no new faith will be born. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand my words which I convey to you.

I leave behind me two things, the Qur’an and my Sunnah (example), and if you follow these you will never go astray.

All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others, and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen to me directly.

Be my witness, O Allah, that I have conveyed your message to Your people.”

REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE

Yesterday, we received two requests that both have been investigated and found worthy.

The first one is the Mosque at the NYSC camp, Edo State (Okada). It is a temporary Mosque although the CAMP is a permanent one. A Muslim staff of the NYSC who is also an indigene of Edo State reached out & has informed me that they have made efforts to erect a permanent Mksqur there, but the management of NYSC has insisted that the present location is only meant for temporary structures. However, the other part of the camp that is yet to be developed can accommodate a permanent mosque structure. In line with that, the Nigerian Catholic Corpers & Nigerian Fellowship Students (NCC & NIFES) also have their own as temporary for the now. As we can see in the photos above, the covers around the mosque have worn out & due to the excessive rain in the region, there is need to build a new floor and elevate it a little so that worshippers can conveniently pray.

The second request is also from Edo state; a staff of a federal agency that is a widow. She was transferred from one of the local govts to the state capital, and paying her rent has become an issue. For those familiar with rent in those areas, they're super expensive. Someone reached out on her behalf as a result of the inconveniences and difficulties she encounters.

For Allah's sake, let us assist both causes generously, and may Allãh SubhanaHu wa Ta'ala reward you all as you donate.
