You haven’t loved Rasūlullāh ﷺ until you’ve loved his #inheritors
I can’t look upon him without weeping, and when he speaks, I know what he wants me to do…
He is not just a scholar.
He is a lighthouse of guidance.
May Allah keep us firm on his way.
He speaks of the use of women in advertising, objectifying them for monetary gain. He contrasts it with the greatest of woman, our lady Fatima عليها السلام
He speaks of the ‘worship of desires’, a culture of nakedness, as being unknown in our Umma, an evil modern infusion…
اللهم صلِّ صلاة كاملة وسلِّم سلامًا تامًا على نبي تنحل به العقد وتنفرج به الكرب وتقضى به الحوائج وتنال به الرغائب وحسن الخواتيم ويستسقى الغمام بوجهه الكريم وعلى آله وصل على سيدنا محمد نورِ الأنوار وسر الأسرار وترياق الأغيار ومفتاح باب اليسار سيدنا محمد المختار و آله الأطهار…
Yes, I knew the hadith is weak before posting…
There are several (seeming) “mistakes” made on this account.
A laymen would not be affected by them at all.
They’re aimed at experts.
We are careful not to convey a wrong message and our posts are based in principles.
Classical scholars planted “mistakes” in their works on occasion test students and also to protect knowledge from those who aren’t able to discipher it. Sadly, It appears only search engines are awake. Googling anything isn’t knowledge and mere transmission isn’t understanding.
Ulema have a hikma in what they do. Social media is not thiqah.
‘Ilm is much too precious to be conveyed where it is not deserved.
Allah’s infinite peace & blessings be upon Rasūlullāh, his pure progeny & folk, gleaming companions, illuminated inheritors and all loyal followers
Allah protect us from a time in which people think that a report with a sound chain avails them from the need for prophetic inheritors
اللهم اصلح وارحم وفرج عن أمة سيدنا محمد ﷺ
يحمل هذا العلم من كل خلف عدوله ينفون عنه تحريف الغالين وانتحال المبطلين وتأويل الجاهلين

Many Muslims don’t know how to balance the religious rulings pertaining to parents with the negative consequences on their mental and emotional health in EIP situations. As a religious scholar, I recieve several inquiries about this.
Instead of explaining the religious command in context, many engage the topic with #religious_rhetoric. Beyond the psychological element of parenting, it’s imperative for Muslims to understand the spiritual fallout of being raised by EIPs.
As spiritual development begins in the pre-rational phase, children internalize attitudes toward God through parents. Formative biological bonds leave a spiritual imprint on children, creating base fitri-faith associations that will affect spiritual capacity far into adulthood.
Family isn’t utopia. God help you if an Egyptian woman gets angry with you. Parents are flawed. Being a mature adult ‘child’ begins with forgiveness and proactively determining our own behavior.
When she’d get angry (for really no valid reason), I’d remember Abu Hanifa…
His mother would curse him in public, even during his religious lessons. He never responded angrily, never defended himself.
I’d say in my heart, “Are you better than Imam Abu Hanifa?”
Allah’s choicest mercy be upon him and grant us from his ‘ilm, ‘amal, and khuluq. Amin.
If students of knowledge cannot imbibe themselves with the character of an Imam, they will not understand him, nor his ethics, nor how his heart shaped his mind nor how his mind shaped his fiqh.
Imam Abu Hanifa was both an intellectual and spiritual genius.
Rahma is pivotal in the Quran, almost all its meanings revolve around it. In our tafsir podcast, we’ll identify 40 axes upon which the proper understanding of the Quran revolves, representive of the foundational divine imperatives and that lead to the “True Recitation”…
This is the reality in most Muslim households. Many fathers are absent due to the prevalent #religious_rhetoric that “men’s work” is outside the home. It has no basis in the Religion and is damaging generations. This is a human virtue that is fully backs by the sacred law…
By the agreement of reputable scholars (including @habibomar@alhabibabobakr), parenthood is a divine trust bestowed on both mother and father.
In fact, based on the sacred law, the primary responsibility for the tarbiya of the family is UPON THE FATHER. This requires presence.
That is what family leadership is about and the core of guardianship is to undertake the care of another through the dictates of divine mercy and prophetic teaching.
It is truly sickening to see so much of the “masculinity” discourse on MT focused on a delusional sense…
Poetry found its pinnacle in the pre-Islamic Arabs. Even as they were immersed in evil practices, they retained their sense of intrinsic morality (fitra). When Islam refined their craft, Muslim poets embodied the best of human archetypes in their verses…
Some classical scholars have posited that the seeds of the fitra still ripe in the Arabs was of the causes they were chosen as first recipients of the Revelation. In our current discourse on Islam donning the cultural garb of its ‘host’ society, this is a critical point to note..
Islam will affirm cultural expressions that run parallel to its ethical imperative, but it will also refine and elevate them. This requires a transcendance above exclusively worldly objectives. Culture is often rooted in the earthly. Religious culture is rooted in the celestial.
saying the sahaba loved Rasūlullāh ﷺ more than anyone yet never celebrated his mawlid, they should ask themselves — was the connection of the sahaba to Rasūlullāh ﷺ just through the mind or did they have a HUMAN CONNECTION to him?
Was their love manifest in words or deeds?
There’s absolutely no comparison between the sahaba & us. Allah be well pleased with them. They gave their lives for Rasūlullāh ﷺ. Today, we give almost nothing for this Religion and then sit around criticizing prophetic inheritors for calling to his love ﷺ through the mawlid
