There’s been somewhat of an uproar over Mohammad Salah (football player) celebrating Christmas, and many Muslims are upset.
I don’t wish to discuss what he did at this point as it’s obvious what he did was utterly wrong,
but what shocks me is why Muslims make worldly celebrities as their role model in dīn.
The best role model is our beloved Prophet ﷺ, and we don’t need anyone else.
Thus, it is vital for us Muslims to learn our creed & dīn in such a manner that if all the Muslims celebrities not only celebrated Christmas, but hypothetically left Islam - and Allāh’s refuge is sought -
then this shouldn’t make an iota of difference to our īmān & certitude in Allāh and His Rasūl ﷺ.
It’s unfortunate that our Muslims feel the need to celebrate non-Muslim festivals, when the opposite doesn’t happen.

Sisters if you don't want to work after marriage and support your spouse financially please explicitly state this to your future spouse and their family.
I have come to know that men and their families are seaching for working women so that they can come into their family and support the family at large especially with finances.

Islamically women have no such duty or responsibility. If a woman earns it's her own money.
If she decides to support her husband and his family that's a good deed but not an obligation and she cannot be forced or guilt tripped into doing this.

There are men and families who need women to work and support the household.

Once, when Umar bin al-Khattab (رضي الله عنه) was walking in the market, he passed by a man who was supplicating,

اللهم اجعلني من القليل اللهم اجعلني من القليل
“O Allah, make me from the few! O Allah make me from the few!”
So ‘Umar said to him, “Where did you get this Dua from?” And the man said, “Allah in His Book says:
و قليل من عبادي الشكور
‘And few of My servants are grateful.’ (Qur’an 34:13)”
So ‘Umar wept and admonished himself, “The people are more knowledgeable than you, O Umar! O Allah make us from Your ‘few’ servants.”

Sometimes when you advise someone to leave a sin, they respond with “But everybody does it, it’s not just me!”

Marriage is a Sunnah of the Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam. A lot of the youngsters I meet complain of Fitnah and the fear of falling into Zina (fornication). A lot of them are university students and can’t afford getting married on their own.
The Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam instructed the youth to fast if they are unable to afford marriage. However, it is the duty of the parents to help their son or daughter to get married if they are unable to do that on their own.
Scholars say that it is mandatory to get married for those who fear falling into forbidden relationships. I can’t understand why most parents risk their children falling in such forbidden relationships and insist that they marry only when they finish school or when employed.

The mark of a good God-fearing person is not in their outward form but in their character.

The way they speak to others, treat others, view others, AND how they view themselves will tell you everything you need to know.
If someone uses their position of authority, knowledge, religiosity, financial power, words, or any other privilege they’ve been given by God to use, abuse, exploit, oppress, or destroy another’s heart then they are among the worst of people and will face God’s wrath eventually.
It’s important to know the qualities of such people for they are usually master manipulators and know well how to stay under the radar until they have what they want.

How many individuals have entered a marriage, for example,

HOW TO AVOID EMOTIONAL AFFAIR

Even if you are married to the best spouse in the whole world, if you do not guard your heart, you may end up "falling in love" with someone aside your spouse and eventually ruin your marriage.
No one gets married and plan to have affair but lots of married men and women are into affairs today because they slept when they should have been wide awake with their five senses alert.
1. Don't be too friendly with the opposite sex. This is where lots of married people land in trouble. Over spirituality and pride will destroy your marriage! You can't handle close friendship with the opposite sex as a married person. Your heart is involved.
