We, the human race, are social creatures. Almost all of us desire the company of others on a regular basis. Seeing that every social gathering is a moment where so much is at stake with respect to good deeds or sins, it's key to ask: what are our ways in such gatherings?

There are still thousands of prisoners stuck in the horrific Saydnaya prison in Damascus, mainly women. Although there are cameras that show the prisoners in their cells (who remain completely unaware that their country has been liberated), rescuers have no idea how to get to them because of the unknown whereabouts of these underground dungeons.
May the curse of Allah be upon all those who had a hand in this

The Gift of Pain | Australia tour | Sydney
Pain is not something that most of us would count as a blessing. Most of us, if given the choice, would prefer to never need to take painkillers. However, Dr. Paul Brand, a British surgeon and author of the book “The Gift of Pain”, offers a uniquely different perspective, arguing that pain is a gift that none of us want and yet none of us can do without.

Our Ways in Making Decisions - Ep. 12

Khalid Nabhan: yet another face of Palestinian patience, defiance, and unbreakable Iman that the sadistic killing machine of Israel has claimed.
Their intentions are clear: a calculated effort to annihilate the remaining icons of Palestine before an eventual ceasefire, stripping the oppressed of any symbol from which strength might be drawn.
But they are too late. The reformation of hearts and minds has already occurred. His memory, and the memory of those like him, is now interwoven into the very DNA of the 21st-century Muslim.
Khalid—meaning "the eternal"—and Nabhan—"the attentive/alert one"—has achieved his name, having become an eternal source of inspiration, while simultaneously alerting the entire globe to the monstrosity of the oppressor.
What they feared would happen by keeping him alive has already happened.
"وَنُرِيدُ أَنْ نَمُنَّ عَلَى الَّذِينَ اسْتُضْعِفُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَنَجْعَلَهُمْ أَئِمَّةً وَنَجْعَلَهُمُ الْوَارِثِينَ، وَنُمَكِّنَ لَهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَنُرِيَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَهَامَانَ وَجُنُودَهُمَا مِنْهُمْ مَا كَانُوا يَحْذَرُونَ."
"And We wished to favor those who were oppressed in the land, to make them leaders and to make them inheritors, and to establish them in the land; and to show Pharaoh, Haman, and their soldiers through them that which they had feared." (Qur'an, 28:5-6)
It's as if ones heart has split right down the middle;
Half of it flutters in utter joy for us in Syria, whilst the other half of it cries for us as Gaza, Sudan and other parts of the Muslim world bleeds.
Ya Allah. Fulfill our joy.
Alhamdulillah, I'm honoured to announce our Waqf's chosen charity partner.
Ya Rabb, bless this partnership, allow it to ease the suffering of your allies in Palestine and to empower it's advocates globally.

Our Ways Towards Parents | Episode 6
Countless mothers and fathers lie awake at night, their pillows soaked with tears, tormented by the backtalk, the cold stares, the disregard for household duties, and an awful sense of entitlement, posturing as though the world owes them something. What’s even more alarming is that nearly every parent will tell you the same thing—none of this happened a decade ago.
