𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗤𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲'𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 When a person is struck with hardship; illness, financial struggle, fear, loss, or helplessness, his heart naturally turns to Allah. In that moment, he remembers that only Allah controls outcomes, and he begs with sincerity, humility, and... brokenness. His du’a becomes pure, his tears flow, his heart soft, because nothing else seems capable of saving him. But when Allah, out of His mercy, removes the hardship and replaces it with comfort, wealth, ease and stability, many people quickly forget that the relief came from Allah. Instead of gratitude, they begin to attribute the success to their own intelligence, strategy, effort, and skill. They say: “I worked hard.” “My planning paid off.” “I am smart and capable.” They speak as though Allah had no role. The same man who was once humbled by fear now becomes arrogant in comfort. The Qur’an describes this as a form of foolishness because: 1. Hardship revealed the truth; that man is weak and in need of Allah. 2. Ease exposed the illusion; that man thinks he is independent and self-made. Allah is teaching us that the real test is not only in difficulty, but even more in times of abundance. Hardship pushes you to Allah. Ease reveals if you will remain with Him. The wise believer understands this, so when ease comes, he increases in humility, shukr (gratitude), sadaqah, and remembrance. He says: “This is from the grace and mercy of my Lord. Without Him, I can achieve nothing.” But the foolish person lets his ego grow, forgets the One who answered him, and walks the earth as though he owns it. The verse exposes how quickly man forgets his dependence on Allah, mistaking divine mercy for personal brilliance. True faith is proven not in how we call upon Allah during hardship, but in how we remember Him and show gratitude when the hardship is gone.show more

I’m so guilty of this. I have failed this test time and time again that I am so conscious about it. Then people think you are weak for being cautious. May the Almighty continue to guide and guard us.

I say it as often as I can, that 1 of my wishes when I die is to have a well attended Janazah, and to witness this level of attendance within 4 hours of announcing his death, in Ramadan makes me full of gratitude. As he is honoured in death, I pray Allah make him of His honored and favored servants, grant him a rank with the righteous in Jannah 🙏🏽. Ya Allah, have mercy on Yusuf Kunle Sulyman, forgive him, wash him off his sins, elevate him, make his barzakh a beautiful abode and reunite us all in Jannah Firdaus. Painful, irreplaceable loss, but we are full of gratitude for a life well lived. May Allah forgive him for his shortcomings and for that which we don’t know of his shortcomings. Ameen 🙏🏽.

Abdullah Azzam 🎤 However, men, when they make their accounts, often disregards the superpower that directs the universe, and to which all matters return. “To Allah belongs the unseen of the heavens and the earth, and to Him goes back every affair [for decision], so worship Him, and put your trust in Him, and your lord is not unaware of what you do.” They overlook, as they make their human and worldly considerations, the statement of Allah the exalted; “Isn’t Allah enough for his servant?” Certainly! “And they try to frighten you with others besides him” Like the superpowers. “And he who Allah causes to stray, no one can guide, isn’t Allah exalted in power, Lord of the retribution?” Without a doubt! The people disregard this issue, and you will only hear Muslims repeating; “How can such and such happen if America is not happy about it” and “how did such and such action succeed when Russia is angry” It is as if - and Allah is high above what they think, greatly exalted - it is as if America and Russia have become gods next to Allah, the exalted. Why? Because Allah cannot be beaten, cannot be defeated, his power cannot be lowered, and this is what has been forgotten by the major powers, and those who revolve around the major powers, to the extent that it has been forgotten by many good Muslims.

Let us recite the testimony of the believer who is certain that there is no one who suffices except Allah, and that reliance upon Him is a security beyond security, and that trust in Him is a peace of mind in which there is no sadness, no fear, and no interruption of hope. He is the capable one, so nothing is difficult for Him. He is the manager, so nothing escapes His management. Our Lord, in Your hand is all authority and all good. You are the giver and You are the preventer. You guide whom You will and You misguide whom You will. So, O Allah, write us among the guided. #BlessedFriday - #HasanIsmaik

Should a blasphemer be killed? There is NO evidence for such in Islam, not in the Qur'ān and not in the Sunnah. The Prophet Muhammad (ṣallāLlāhu 'alayhi wa sallam) chose forgiveness and mercy even when he had the power to take revenge. People didn't submit to him because of coercion. He was never a coercive person. They submitted to him willingly because of his mercy and his beautiful character. Allah, the Creator describes him as a Prophet of Mercy for all humankind and jinn-kind (Rahmatan li al-'ālamīn). Share with others.

A great statement to the people in Surat Al 'Imran about His mercy of His creation, His bounty over them and His care to call them to take the righteous way; until they feel the proper fear of Allah almighty and end up surrendering their lives to Him, and to cling to His orders and not to disperse from faith in Him, as He is the most affectionate and by His love we love others and treat them mercifully, and by His mercy and guidance we survive his suffering. Then after the call to a proper conviction, there comes a call to good deeds and righteous actions and interdiction against the abominable and separation, and eventually comes the reward of those who obeyed Allah’s call, and that is eternal paradise as promised by Allah the most honest in promise and threat… These are the signs of God that He makes clear to the people, and your Lord does not wrong anything. #BlessedFriday - #HasanIsmaik

In a single noble verse, the eloquence and miraculous power of Allah the Exalted is conveyed to us through a great #debate won by logic and rational proof. It took place between the father of prophets, Abraham (peace be upon him), and #Nimrod, the king of Babylon. Instead of this king’s faith in Allah increasing when Allah granted him kingship, the blessing turned into a curse for Nimrod, leading him to become arrogant enough to argue with Abraham about Allah the Exalted. The king asks Abraham, “Who is your Lord?” To which Abraham replies, “My Lord is the One who gives life and death.” The king responds, “I give life and death.” (Meaning: “I judge whoever I want to die and I pardon whoever deserves to die.”) Since the king’s response is a #sophism with no substance, Abraham changes the logic of the argument from agreement to disagreement. He tells the king: Allah, my Lord, brings the sun from the east—so bring it from the west if you are, as you claim to be, a god or that you are, as you claim to be, Allah’s equal. It seems that King Nimrod, despite his arrogance, was not stupid. He realized the strength of Abraham’s argument and the coherence of his logic, and he was stunned both by what he heard and his inability to respond. This is because polytheism and disbelief are both great injustices to those who embrace them since Allah does not guide unjust people. And it is only just that “nimrod” is used to describe a fool or a stupid person. #BlessedFriday - #HasanIsmaik #Iraq - #Baghdad

Sheikh Faisal Nu‘man, may Allah have mercy on him, used to call the Adhan even while he was lying on his sickbed, in a soft voice. This moment reflects a lifetime devoted to the call to prayer at the Prophet’s Mosque. His voice was special and will always remain in the hearts of the people of Madinah. It was not just a call for prayer time, but a voice of peace, comfort, and lifelong companionship. May Allah have mercy on him and raise his rank.

This incredible man who became known to the world by tragedy, the loss of “the soul of his soul,” Reem, his granddaughter. He tells the story of how close they were, her and her brother, both are children of his daughter. This clip begins with him saying “it’s impossible to do anything without her.” Then he says “complaints are to Allah that’s it, He (alone) knows the measure of the grief and loss that we feel, and Allah is the one who will avenge, and I pray that Allah makes the blood (death) Reem, the soul of my soul, and all of the martyrs a curse upon Israel and America and their allies.” I don’t know how it’s possible to listen to this man and not shed tears and get goosebumps listening to his words and prayers, let alone the leaders of the assault and the those leaders accomplice to it.

In generations to come, Islam will destroy Christianity in Western Europe. Just as he destroyed Christianity and Judaism in the Middle East in about 1,400 years since it was founded. This is one of the tactics that Islam uses to take over the world: Quran 4.100 “Whoever emigrates for the sake of Allah will find much refuge and abundance in the earth, and whoever forsakes his home, a refugee for Allah and his messenger, and death overtakes him, his reward is then obligatory upon Allah. Allah is always forgiving, merciful.” *Here the Qur’an states the cardinal importance of “emigration for the cause of Allah,” that is, moving to a new land with the intention of bringing Islam to it. See also 4:66 and 4:89. The primary pattern for emigrants in Islamic tradition is the Hijra, Muhammad’s move from Mecca to Medina, where for the first time he became a political and military leader. It is “obligatory” for Allah to reward emigrants; this is one of the Qur’an’s few promises of reward for specific actions (see also 9:111). Continue to let Islam into the Western world with welcome and friendship. Continue to respect Islam and eventually it will do to you what Muhammad did in the 7th century to those who welcomed him in the city of Medina. He completely destroyed the host culture.

Andrei Tarkovsky on Ingmar Bergman's Shame (1968): "Let us look at Bergman's Shame. The film doesn't contain a single 'actor's piece' for the performer to 'give away' the director's purpose, to play the conception of the persona, his attitude to it, to assess it in relation to the overall idea; and the latter is entirely hidden within the dynamic of the characters' lives, at one with it. The people in the film are crushed by circumstances; they act only in accordance with their situation, to which they themselves are subordinate; they make no attempt to proffer us any idea, any perspective on what is happening, or to draw any conclusion. All of that is left to the film as a whole, to the director's vision. And how superbly it is accomplished! You cannot say in simple terms who amongst them is good or bad. I could never say that von Sydow is a bad man. They are all partly good and partly bad, each in his own way. No judgements are passed, because there is no hint of tendentiousness in any of the actors, and the circumstances of the film are used by the director to explore the human possibilities which they test, and not for a moment in order to illustrate a thesis. Max von Sydow's character is developed with masterly power. He is a very good man; a musician; kind and sensitive. It turns out that he is a coward. But by no means every bold man is a good human being, and cowards are not always scoundrels. Of course, he is weak and irresolute. His wife is far stronger than he, so much so that she can overcome her fear. The hero lacks that strength. He is tormented by his own weakness, vulnerability, lack of resilience; he tries to hide, to cower in a corner, not to see and not to hear; and he does this like a child, naively and with complete sincerity. But when circumstances nevertheless force him to defend himself, he instantly turns into a scoundrel. He loses all that was best in him; but the drama and absurdity of his situation is that as he is now he becomes necessary to his wife, who, in her turn, looks to him for protection and succour instead of despising him as she always had. When he beats her about the face and says 'Get out!' she goes crawling after him. There is something here of the age-old idea of passive good and active evil; but its expression is immensely complex. At the beginning of the film the hero cannot even kill a chicken, but as soon as he has found a way of defending himself he becomes a cruel cynic. He has something of Hamlet: my view is that the Prince of Denmark perishes not as a result of the duel, when he dies physically, but immediately after the 'rat' scene, when he understands how irreversible are those laws of life which have forced him, a man of humanity and intellect, to act like the inferior people who inhabit Elsinore. Von Sydow is now a sinister character, afraid of nothing: he kills; will not raise a finger to save his fellows; pursues only his own interests. The point is that you have to be a person of great integrity to feel fear in the face of the foul necessity to kill and humiliate. And by shedding that fear and apparently acquiring courage, a person in fact loses his spiritual strength and intellectual honesty and parts from his innocence. War is the obvious catalyst for the cruel, anti-human elements in people. Bergman uses the war in this film exactly as he uses the heroine's illness in Through a Glass Darkly: to explore his view of man." — "Sculpting in Time" by Andrei Tarkovsky (translated by Kitty Hunter-Blair, 1987)

How can one suffer so horribly yet maintain their faith? For many today, especially those battling mental illness or trials that push them beyond what they can bear, the test is not the same as failure. Allah does not hold us accountable for what we cannot control. Our limits are known to Him, even when they aren’t known to us. What matters is not the absence of struggle, but the effort to keep returning to faith through it. We now see this truth lived out every day. The Ghazzawi people embody the patience of Ayyub (عليه السلام), holding firm to their Imaan through loss, grief, and injustice. Their endurance reminds us that real faith isn’t proven in ease, but in how we cling to Allah when everything else is stripped away.

This Afghan national and social media star, Mashal Khan, has proven himself to be a true son of Afghanistan.♥️ The second person (TTA térrorist) countering him during the conversation is also an Afghan national, but he is a mix breed of Russia, the US, and India. You can listen to his distorted views about the mosque (the House of Allah Almighty), and his desperation against Pakistan is so much that he and all the other Khawarij of the TTA regime would leave Islam and wage war against Allah Almighty if they found proof that Allah Almighty is helping the Islamic Republic of Pakistan every time.
