This is so interesting. #BorisJohnsonPM is really Boris Kamal. His great grandfather was a Turkish politician who memorised the Quran and resisted Ataturk:

“Driven by his ideological prowess and also the need to relaunch his political career, Kemal left Britain in 1912 and returned to Istanbul, the capital of the Ottoman Empire. He left his children behind in England with their grandmother...”
“Their grandmother replaced the Muslim-sounding surnames of one of his children with an Anglophone one, so as to prevent any backlash from the British authorities during the World War I...”
“...since the Ottoman Empire was allied with Germany, the rival of the Britain. Therefore, Osman Wilfred Kemal, Boris Johnson's grandfather, became Wilfred Johnson.”

I don’t think lefties get it.
Islam is not communism. We reject communism as an ideology.
Communist regimes have wrought havoc across the world and especially upon their own populations. Communism is materialistic in its very DNA, seeing humans as mere resources for nations. Islam has a superior system. Lefties, you should embrace Islam as the ultimate alternative to unbridled capitalism and materialism.
1/ We reject communism’s atheism. While it sees religion as "the opium of the people," leading to nihilism and lack of moral boundaries, our faith in the Creator and the guidance revealed by the Creator is the foundation of life and purpose.

Advice for parents of Muslim girls starting secondary school:

🧕🏽🧕🏻🧕🏿 When your daughter starts secondary school, if she doesn’t already wear hijab, it’s a good time to start from day 1 of secondary school.
Why? Because many girls find it really hard to start wearing it later once their friends at school know them as non-hijabis.
And they will probably reach puberty at some point during secondary and it will be obligatory for them, so it makes the transition easier.

How I brought my children up with Arabic as one of their languages - despite not being an Arab.

🧵
Arabic is not my first language. I grew up reading the Qur'an & not understanding it until I was 16 and went to Egypt to learn Classical Arabic. So how did my kids learn Arabic?

#RaisingBelievers
Children have the propensity to learn languages like a native until they are around 12 years old, when their brains change modes and certain types of language acquisition and pronunciation become harder. Children learn languages through osmosis - essentially immersion.
So first of all I recited Qur'an to my child (having studied Qur'an recitation myself) till they began memorising Qur'an themselves. Apart from the blessings of learning Qur'an, this meant my child's brain was becoming used to Arabic sounds and cadence.

@GoldingBF Secondary schools and doctors in UK literally give underage girls access to contraception and the pill without informing their parents. This young lady has been saved.
@GoldingBF Young and elderly English people are embracing Islam.

Girls in the West are groomed away from the protection of their fathers and menfolk. They have to fend for themselves as soon as they mature. When a man shows a modicum of protective jealousy or sets standards, he is shamed. This opens girls up to abuse.
“Are you saying all men are predators?”

No. But good men have to protect women from the predatory men. When a society tells men that women don’t need them, they don’t need their protection or guardianship…the wolves in that society have a banquet.
Islam seeks to protect girls from the cradle to the grave. Her father is responsible for her care & provision until she gets married. He is her guardian. He facilitates her getting married. Then her husband is responsible for provision and protection.

My kid came home anxious about what humans are apparently doing to cause ‘climate change’.

How to have the ‘climate’ conversation with Muslim kids who are anxious:
🧵
1. Explain to them that Allah is in control of the world, the weather, the ‘climate’, the universe. Nothing good or bad happens without his permission. So always ask for good from Allah and expect good.
2. If all of the world gathers together to cause harm, they cannot, unless Allah allows it, if all the world got together to cause benefit, they could not without Allah allowing it. These are fundamental theological beliefs for us as Muslims and should cause us to rely on Allah… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
