Ibrahim ﷺ is remembered for the sacrifice.
He should also be remembered for the building.
After the trial, he and Ismail ﷺ picked up stones and built the Ka'bah. Infrastructure that billions still orient toward five times a day.
The sacrifice was the moment of conviction...
The building was the civilisational act.
Muslim media keeps producing the conviction moment. We keep skipping the building part.
That's the argument in my piece at 1Nation Media this week.
Eid Mubarak. May this one move us from inspiration to institution.

Too many people treat Zakat as a one-time donation, leaving its incredible potential untapped. Here's are well known but little understood zakat strategies. https://t.co/i3QafY3SR1
Don’t just teach the rituals, touch the heart:
1. Instill the love of Allah and His Messenger
2. Develop an emotional connection
3. That’s the core of faith
It’s all about the heart.
Another way to reinforce Islamic identity in kids:
1. Involve them in community
2. Attend events together
3. Build relationships
It takes a village to raise a child.
Stop teaching kids only rituals,
start instilling in them their Islamic identity:
• Anchor them in faith
• Foster sense of purpose
• Prepare them to lead
You're raising future leaders of Muslims
The family is essential in your journey as a Muslim.
It is the first form of:
• community, and
• government
It is the best form of:
• Department of Health
• Education, and
• Welfare
