7 silent signs you are loved by Allah.
You’re not here by accident.

When Allah loves someone, He begins by changing their heart long before He changes their life.
1. You start feeling distant from sins even in private.

Things that once felt normal now feel uncomfortable. Even when no one is watching, your heart reacts differently.

That shift isn’t random. It’s Allah guiding your heart back.

GHOSTBUSTERS was released 42 years ago today. A 1980s comedy classic and one of the most popular of Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray, the making of story is as huge as the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man…

1/38 Image
SNL comic Dan Aykroyd was brought up in an environment where ghost and ghouls were part of his family - his great grandfather was a spiritual researcher and his dad wrote a book called A History of Ghosts. Aykroyd always wanted to put his experiences into a screenplay.

Aykroyd sent Stripes director Ivan Reitman his script – titled Ghost Smashers. It was set in a future where the Ghostbusters operated out of a New Jersey gas station & faced ghostly threats. It also had a large portion of the film set in space.

The day a Scotsman told the king to f*ck off - Another true royal story
A number of years ago, Jenny and Adam Watson’s phone rang. Adam answered it and was met by a very plummy voice asking to speak to ‘Mrs Watson’.

‘Certainly, may I ask who’s calling?’

‘Yes, it’s Charles, Prince of Wales.’

Holding the phone to his chest with some scepticism, Adam whispered to his wife, ‘I think Prince Charles is on the phone for you.’

And, sure enough, it was. HRH was vexed about some local issue and wished to discuss it with Jenny, a councilor at that time. After a brief conversation the prince invited Jenny and Adam to tea on the Balmoral estate so they could continue the discussion in a bit more detail.

Some days later Jenny and Adam duly arrived at Birkhall, on the Balmoral Estate, and met with Charles to discuss the issue that was weighing on his mind. After a period of time, when he was satisfied he’d got up to speed with the relevant information from Jenny, he changed tack to discuss something else that was on his mind.

'I've got a problem', said Charles.

‘Do you know Gordon of Abergeldie?’ continued the prince.

Those unfamiliar with the machinations of Deeside aristocracy would be forgiven for not knowing that there has apparently been bad blood between the Gordons of Abergeldie and the royal family right from the time of Queen Victoria. Why this should be I’ve no idea, but seemingly the rift did — does? — run deep. The Gordons have held Abergeldie for centuries, and it borders the Balmoral estate.

‘Yes,’ said Adam. ‘I know him well enough.’

‘I’ve simply tried everything to welcome him; to be a friendly neighbour. But he just won’t have it,’ said Charles. ‘I’ve invited him to tea, even, but nothing.’

Adam and Jenny were unable to proffer any advice to the prince on the specific subject of how he might ingratiate himself to his Abergeldie neighbour. With a shrug of the shoulders Charles then recounted an astonishing recent episode where he’d had an altercation with Gordon.

2/3
‘I was sitting just on Gordon’s side of the estate boundary, in an isolated corner, with my easel, painting the scene in the background,’ relayed the prince.

‘Just as I was halfway through, I saw a jeep tearing down the track towards me through the trees. As it drew nearer I could see it was Gordon, and he didn’t look happy,’ stated the Prince. He continued.

‘The vehicle slammed on its brakes and out came a purple-faced Gordon. “WINDSOR,” he shrieked, “take your paints and FUCK OFF MY LAND.”’

Adam and Jenny sat agog as the prince openly swore in front of them, recounting the story.

‘So, what did you do?’ replied Adam eventually, regaining his composure.

A semi-puzzled prince Charles looked back at the couple.

‘I fucked off, of course.’

You think your wife is asking for too much. But the Prophet ﷺ did all 17 gestures without being asked.
Here's how the Prophet ﷺ treated his wives?

1. He called them with loving nicknames.
2. He fed them with his own hands. → (Sahih Muslim 3006)
3. He drank from the same spot on the cup as her.
4. He helped in household chores.
5. He raced with her and laughed.
6. He expressed love openly. → "I love you as my life." - (Sunan Ibn Majah 1972)
7. He comforted them when they were sad.
8. He listened more than he spoke.
9. He was gentle and never raised his voice.
10. He never insulted or belittled them.

I hadn't been able to focus for more than 10 minutes in 6 months.

Coffee. Cold showers. Focus playlists. "Dopamine detox" weekends. Nothing worked.

A friend pushed me to see a cognitive performance specialist. I expected ADHD screening, brain scans, maybe a referral for medication.

He didn't even ask me about my symptoms.

He looked at my iPhone and said:

"There are 4 settings turned ON right now destroying your attention span. 8 out of 10 patients I see have the same 4 toggles."

Me: "So my phone is the thing breaking my brain?"

He didn't answer.

Here's everything he showed me in the next 12 minutes (save this, your focus depends on it): 🧵
The first setting he pointed at: Notification Previews.

Every notification on my lock screen showed the full preview of the message.

He explained why that matters:

"Every preview is a micro-decision. Should I respond? Is this urgent? Who sent it? Your brain processes each one whether you act on it or not. By the end of the day, you've made 400+ involuntary decisions before you've made a single intentional one. Your prefrontal cortex is exhausted before lunch."

The fix:

Settings → Notifications → Show Previews → Never (or "When Unlocked" if you absolutely need them)

This single change does more for focus recovery than any productivity app ever built.

I changed it on the spot. Within 3 days, I noticed I was checking my phone significantly less because there was nothing to "preview" anymore.
The second setting: Badge App Icons on every social app.

The little red numbers on Instagram, X, LinkedIn, WhatsApp.

He said they were the single most addictive piece of UI design in modern technology.

"Red badges trigger the same neural pathways as physical danger signals. Your brain treats every notification badge as a threat that needs resolution. The compulsion to clear them isn't laziness, it's hardwired. You're fighting evolutionary biology with willpower. You'll lose every time."

The fix:

Settings → Notifications → tap each social media app → Badges → Off

Do this for: Instagram, X, TikTok, LinkedIn, Facebook, Snapchat, Threads, Reddit, every messaging app you don't need real-time updates from.

He recommended I leave Badges on for: Phone, Messages, Calendar. Nothing else.

The first day was uncomfortable. The second day, I forgot Instagram existed for 6 hours straight.

The UK has a big problem …

The UK has a FRIGATE-GAP

A 🧵
Allow me to explain.

Frigates are the general workhorse of the naval fleet. And they are the only ships we have that can conduct anti-submarine warfare.
Anti-submarine warfare you say?

Is that really important?

YES

🚨WARNING the bit Starmer isnt telling you is... this sort of device technology is called Client-Side Scanning.

It is already built into the Ofcom regulated Online Safety Act through “accredited technology” notices. The EU has been pushing similar rules through its Child Sexual Abuse Regulation, known as “Chat Control”.

It basically means phone companies and platforms can be pushed to scan messages, images and content BEFORE you send them, then either allowing them to be sent or blocking/reporting them.

Once the precedent is set, "to protect children", it can easily be widened to block whatever government decides is “harmful”.

And that's how you go from child safety to state approved speech.

TA DAAAA 🚨Image
You should also know, this technology can rolled out across millions of existing phones without replacing them. Brilliant. (that was sarcasm)
I write extensively about what is planned and what is already in place. I really hope you like the book but more than that, I hope you will see how all the threads are being connected.
