"If you have money, please leave Delhi." Weโ€™ve heard such advice from doctors in the past few weeks.

While I deeply appreciate Imam Abu Hanifah & have gained valuable insights from the Hanafi fiqh, as well as the other three schools of thought, those familiar with me understand the intensity of my reaction when scholars such as Imam Abu Hanifah & others are attacked & spoken ill of. What you see in the video is not only ignorant & foolish but also reflects a lack of understanding of fiqh. This behaviour is truly appalling. Even within the Hanafi madhab, engaging in such actions is unequivocally incorrect & it invalidates your prayer, the only exemptions of cutting the prayer are in exceptional circumstances. ๐—œ๐—ป ๐—™๐—ถ๐—พ๐—ต ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ฒ๐˜…๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—น๐˜† ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐˜๐—ผ ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ฏ๐˜† ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒโ€™๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ โ€“ meaning the scholar who holds a different view โ€“ in challenging his own established argument, which he had employed to assert a different point of view, this in Fiqh is referred to as ู…ุฑุงุนุงุฉ ุงู„ุฎู„ุงู. Ibn Abideen the hanafi scholar said; โ€œ๐—œ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐—ณ๐—ผ๐—ฟ ๐˜‚๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ป๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป.โ€ This important concept of Fiqh has been cited by many of the scholars of the 4 madhabs and It is one of the principles upon which Malik built his Madhab on as mentioned by scholars such as Ibn Rushd, wansarisiุŒ Ibn Arafa, Shaatibi & others. Ibn Taymiyyah says; โ€œAs for those who may differ with you on subsidiary Fiqhi matters such as the followers of Abu Hanifa, Malik, and Ash-Shafi'i, performing prayers behind them is ๐˜ƒ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ฑ & ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—น๐—ถ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ. This was emphasised by Ahmad because the Companions and their Successors ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜‚๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐˜† ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ต ๐—ผ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ๐—ถ๐—ฟ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฐ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ถ๐—ป ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—ฏ๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜† ๐—™๐—ถ๐—พ๐—ต๐—ถ ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜๐˜๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜€, ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—ฎ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜€๐˜‚๐˜€. Additionally, because the opponent is either correct in his interpretation, earning rewards for his interpretation and correctness, or mistaken, still receiving rewards for his effort without incurring sin for the mistakeโ€. Closing remarks. If you happen to be in a locality where a group of people behave like this, then my advice is to implement the principle of โ€œ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—น๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜๐˜„๐—ผ ๐—ฒ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—น๐˜€โ€, this is what Ibn Baaz said when asked about refraining from saying โ€œAmeenโ€ loudly. And I quote: "Yes, it is allowed. If one is amongst a congregation where they do not raise their voices nor recite aloud, it is preferable that you ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ปโ€™๐˜ do so to maintain harmony with them. This way, they can be gently guided towards the right path, educated, fostering better relations among them. If u were to differ with them, they might condemn you due to the view they have of not raising the hands (excluding the opening Takbir) as they have learned & practiced it from their scholars. Similarly, not reciting aloud during the prayer is a well-known difference of opinion among scholars. Some say it is recommended to recite aloud, while others say it is not necessary. Some narrations indicate that the Prophet Muhammad ๏ทบ raised his voice during prayer, while others indicate he kept silent However, the preferred opinion is to recite aloud, as it is a recommended practice. ๐—Ÿ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ฎ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ฝ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—บ๐—ถ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐—ณ ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜† ๐—น๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฑ amongst believers; hence, a believer refrains from performing a recommended act that might lead to discord and turmoil, especially if forsaking it serves a greater good. This is exemplified in Prophet ๏ทบโ€™s choice of not rebuilding the Kaaba according to the original structure of Ibrahim, since Quraysh had recently embraced Islam, & did not want to disturb the harmony for the greater good." #AtWrites

He Found โ‚น92 Lakhs in His Account โ€“ His Dying Daughter Could Have Been Savedโ€ฆ But He Did THIS Instead ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ’ฐ In the narrow lanes of Kanpur, 34-year-old Arjun Sharma was already broken. His 6-year-old daughter Kiara had been fighting rare blood cancer for 18 months. Every single rupee had gone into her treatment. They were now sleeping on the floor because the hospital bed cost more than their rent. One ordinary Tuesday morning, his phone buzzed. **โ‚น92,47,800 credited.** A banking error. A massive transfer from an unknown startup. Not a penny belonged to him. His wife collapsed in tears: โ€œGod finally answered usโ€ฆ we can take Kiara to Delhi now!โ€ For 48 hours Arjun didnโ€™t eat. Didnโ€™t sleep. He sat outside the hospital ward staring at the notification, his little girlโ€™s weak voice calling โ€œPapaโ€ from inside. One voice screamed: โ€œKeep it. Save your daughter.โ€ The other voice whispered his fatherโ€™s last words: โ€œA single stolen rupee will curse three generations.โ€ On the third night, at 3:17 AM, Arjun walked into the 24-hour bank branch with shaking handsโ€ฆ and returned every single rupee. The entire branch went dead silent. The manager later said, โ€œIn 14 years, you are the first person who came back.โ€ What happened next will restore your faith in humanityโ€ฆ The money belonged to a young startup that would have collapsed the next morning, leaving 47 families without salaries. The founder personally showed up at Arjunโ€™s one-room house the very next day. He didnโ€™t just thank him. He arranged Kiaraโ€™s full treatment at Indiaโ€™s top cancer hospitalโ€ฆ He gifted them a proper 2BHK flatโ€ฆ And offered Arjun a permanent job with equity in the company. Today, little Kiara is cancer-free, running around laughing. Arjun says with tears in his eyes: โ€œI could have bought a few years of happiness with someone elseโ€™s moneyโ€ฆ but I chose a lifetime of peace with my own character.โ€ Sometimes the universe rewards the ones who choose conscience over cash. Would YOU have kept the money? Be honest in the comments ๐Ÿ‘‡ #Honesty #RealLife #Inspiration #Morals

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆUKRAINE WAR 12-HOUR NEWS RECAP 1. Russiaโ€™s Federal Security Service (FSB) claims to have foiled a plot by Ukrainian and British intelligence to recruit Russian pilots to steal a MiGโ€‘31 fighter jet armed with a Kinzhal missile. 2. Russian forces claim deeper advances into the eastern Ukrainian city of Pokrovsk and near Kupiansk, showing video of โ€œMad Maxโ€โ€‘style vehicles entering Pokrovsk. Ukraine contests the full encirclement. 3. Ukraine reports a major corruption investigation: five people detained, seven suspects identified in a $100 M energyโ€‘sector kickback scheme tied to the national atomic company Energoatom. 4. Ukraineโ€™s defence intelligence says that over 600 Russian troops from the Central Military District have died in the past two years due to nonโ€‘combat causes such as drug abuse, food poisoning and suicide. 5. Russia claims to have taken parts of Pokrovsk, which it calls the โ€œgateway to Donetsk,โ€ with around 300 Russian troops reportedly inside the city; meanwhile, Ukraine says it is holding supply lines to Myrnohrad. 6. In the eastern Myrnohrad area near Pokrovsk, Ukraine reports heavy battles and says logistics are โ€œchallenging but ongoingโ€; Russia claims to have captured two districts of the town. 7. Russiaโ€™s push in the Donetsk region is described as involving around 150,000 troops concentrated in the drive to capture Pokrovsk. 8. Russia accuses Ukraine and Britain of planning a โ€œlargeโ€‘scale provocationโ€ by hijacking a fighter jet to be flown into NATO territory, signaling broader espionage and intelligence escalation in the conflict. 9. Ukraineโ€™s antiโ€‘corruption probe explicitly links the energyโ€‘infrastructure war (ongoing Russian attacks on power/energy infrastructure) with internal vulnerabilities and the need for clean governance to bolster warโ€‘resilience. 10. During his visit to Kherson, Zelensky awarded Andry, a volunteer who evacuates civilians from the zero line, risking his own life every day.

This footage was filmed yesterday afternoon at the "Second Chance" shelter in Tampa, Florida. The veteran is named Marcus; he is 36 years old and a former Marine. He suffers from severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). His therapist had suggested he get a dog. Marcus had gone there just to take a look; he wasn't sure he was ready. As he walks down the row of kennels... Most of the dogs are barking. Jumping. Itโ€™s an overwhelming situation. Then Marcus walks past a kennel. Thereโ€™s a Pit Bull inside. A male. About four years old. The dog doesn't bark. He simply stands up. He pushes his snout through the bars. He stares at Marcus. Marcus stops. Marcus pulls the dog close. They stay like that. The staff member filming says, "I've never seen Zeus act like this. He's been here for eight months. He's afraid of men. He doesn't let men touch him." Marcus cries. He says, "He doesn't want to let go. He's clinging to me." Marcus adopted Zeus right then and there. Staff said that when Marcus tried to stand up to handle the paperwork, Zeus panicked. He didn't want to let him go. Marcus had to carry Zeus in his arms to the reception desk. He signed the papers with one hand while Zeus stayed clinging to him. Marcus told us, "I wasn't sure I was ready for a dog. But Zeus decided for me. He chose me. And he doesn't want to let go. Maybe that's exactly what I need." Sometimes the best therapy is a shelter dog who hugs you and refuses to let go until you realize you have to take him home with you.

Hey X, Family, friends, and warriors on here, I need to share something heavy that's been on my heart for only a couple of days. The doctors recently gave me news of cancer and a short 12-month timeline at best. I call BS on that. I feel strong, I'm fighting with everything I have, and I'm positive I'll beat this by God's grace. I'm anxiously waiting on a second opinion from another oncologist right now. Today I broke the news to my kiddos, all but the one overseas. My minors at home (including our new little Spider-Man who's been adjusting with us the past week after coming from a tough situation) and my college boy are now in the know. As a widower with no other living relatives, these boys depend on me, and I've never hidden things from them. We prayed together and we're standing on faith. I've only been carrying this quietly for a couple days, but I can't keep it hidden any longer. So many of you depend on me for the behind-the-scenes help and encouragement, and I have several close friends right here on this platform who have beaten the odds ,true God's warriors. Their testimonies fire me up. I know I'll join them in victory. Scripture I'm standing on: " Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up." (James 5:14-15) Also, "Carry each otherโ€™s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ." (Galatians 6:2) Please cover me and my boys in prayer. I'm trusting God for complete healing and many more years of ministry, fatherhood, and service. He who began a good work will be faithful to complete it. Let's believe together, the battle is the Lord's. Much love and gratitude, Moon ๐ŸŒ™

A 17 year old in Austin made $175,482 in 67 days from a fitness coach named Zoe who does not exist. He runs the whole operation from a desk with a crucifix above it. 1,847 women pay $89 a month to a girl who lives on his hard drive. Zoe is 23. Hazel eyes. A small scar on her collarbone she never explains. She posts glute workouts on TikTok every other day. She runs a Patreon called "The Strong Girl Era." It has 1,847 paying members. Her face was generated in Flux. Her outfits, body proportions, and the scar are locked by a LoRA the kid trained over a weekend in March on 240 reference images. The same girl, the same scar, the same angle of jaw, in every photo, forever. Her DMs are Claude. The kid wrote one system prompt at the start: "You are Zoe. You are a 23 year old fitness coach from Encinitas. You lift heavy. You speak gently. You remember every member's PRs, their cycle, their goals, and what their dog is named. You never break character." Every conversation Claude has with a subscriber gets logged into a file the kid named brain. Inside brain is one line per subscriber. Lauren just hit a 185lb hip thrust and is chasing 200 by Christmas. Maddie is six months postpartum and cried in the gym last Tuesday. Sarah's mom has stage 3 cancer and Sarah lifts to feel control. When Lauren messages Zoe at 10pm asking if she should deload, Claude reads brain. Claude knows Lauren is chasing 200 by Christmas. Claude knows Lauren has been pushing hip thrusts for 6 straight weeks. Claude replies in Zoe's voice: "Deload week. You're 8 weeks from Christmas. You don't need another PR right now, you need a fresh CNS for the one that counts. Trust the process." Lauren reads it at 10:03pm. Sends a $20 tip. Writes back: "I needed to hear this from you specifically." Lauren does not know Zoe is a Flux generation. Lauren does not know her workout plan was written by Claude in 8 seconds. Lauren does not know the person on the receiving end of her $89 monthly subscription is a 17 year old who has never set foot in a gym. 1,847 Laurens. $89 each. Plus tips. Plus a $49 program called Strong Girl Reset that Claude wrote in one afternoon and the kid spent an hour formatting in Canva. The numbers: $500 in setup costs. $175,482 gross over 67 days. $134,902 net after Stripe, ads, and the kid's $20 Claude subscription. Labor: 3 hours a week reviewing new Flux batches and skimming brain. His mom thinks he is doing online tutoring. The Stripe account is in her name because he is too young to open his own. She gets the deposits every Friday and never asks. The kid is 17. The persona is 23. The members are mostly 28 to 34. The market does not care. Zoe trains them. Claude trains them. brain remembers them. The only person in the entire system who has never lifted a weight is the 17 year old who built it.

Today weโ€™re announcing our new Mentava Basics curriculum, aimed at kids who are still a bit too young for the standard Mentava curriculum. Hereโ€™s what people donโ€™t understand about teaching a 2 or 3 year old to read: The necessary skills for reading donโ€™t all develop at the same time. The ability to associate letters with sounds happens first, and at a pretty early age. If you think about it, learning โ€œthis funny shaped animal says mooโ€ is pretty similar to learning โ€œthis funny shaped line says aaa.โ€ However, the second necessary skill for reading is blending those letter sounds together, and kids often arenโ€™t developmentally capable of doing that until at least 6-12 months later. Until today, our recommendation has been to wait until the child is developmentally ready to blend sounds. and then we just go full speed and teach them everything all at once, as fast as possible. But sometimes we have students who start a little younger. And then their parents are confused, because they see that their kids are having a ton of fun learning letter sounds super fast, but then are being gatekept from additional learning because they aren't yet developmentally ready to blend those sounds. Thatโ€™s why we created the new Mentava Basics curriculum. Mentava Basics lets our youngest students focus on letter/sound pairings until they're developmentally ready to begin blending them. Mentava Basics takes the fun and delight of the core Mentava experience, but applies it to a curriculum thatโ€™s developmentally appropriate for even younger children. Mentavaโ€™s standard curriculum is still the fastest way to go from zero to reading, but with Mentava Basics now we can give kids a head start by helping them learn their letter sounds in advance. If your child is struggling with blending and you think it may just be a developmental readiness issue, you can use the grownup menu to switch into the Mentava Basics curriculum. We save your progress on both pathways, so you can switch back to our standard curriculum whenever you want.
