I’d like to make it clear that I won’t respond to any such instigative complaints during Rajab which is a sacred month. How easily can we fool ourselves into doing wrong even when (allegedly) defending the truth…
I caution all religious figures to be vigilant in abstaining from instigative posting during Rajab, and hopefully as a training for beyond. It’s especially abhorrent at a time when so many of our brethren are terribly suffering. The specific post in question is ridiculous…
and doesn’t even warrant attention as it’s so obviously wrong. It’s actually much more troubling that Muslims have the slightest doubt as to the outright ignorance and blatant disregard for the Sunnah entailed in such posts. The other reason I’m not going to waste time on this…
is that we’ve already explained the correct gender conception in Islām on several occasions. Despite that, people abandon sacred knowledge and cling to ignorance. Perhaps, we ought to examine what we’re really after. Guidance or drama? Have better things to do. Alhamdulillāh…
Some have also (respectfully) requested me to post more on my personal life (for benefit). While I may, on occasion, share something of the sort, the general rule is that my ‘personal self’ isn’t for public consumption. It’s for my close inner circle, my family and friends…
In conclusion, the figure mentioned above is not a scholar. By default, his words are irrelevant. Hope that solves your dilemma.
Allah’s infinite peace & blessings be upon Rasūlullāh, his pure progeny & folk, gleaming companions, illuminated inheritors, and all loyal followers.
For those interested in the proper conception of gender in Islām, see below. If we’re invested in female scholarship, perhaps we ought to start showing it instead of leaching attention off of those who disparage women. Glad I choose to raise my kids instead of letting MT to do it
اللهم صل على سيدنا محمد نورِ الأنوار وسر الأسرار وترياق الأغيار ومفتاح باب اليسار ،سيدنا محمد المختار ،وآله الأطهار وأصحابه الأخيار عدد نعم الله و افضاله
الحمد لله ربّ العالمين

Upon witnessing thousands of our brethren pass in just a few days, the blessing of life & the ability to reach Ramadan is a divine favor we shouldn’t take for granted.
(Semi) daily, we’ll post preparatory tips for the upcoming blessed Month of the Quran.
The tips are aimed at physical and spiritual preparation.
Some are for beginners, others more advanced.
In any case, the objective is to begin the forward momentum toward our Lord from now.
40 days left.
The countdown begins.
اللهم بارك لنا في رجب وشعبان وبلغنا رمضان
﷽
القرآن مأدبة الله
The Quran is the ‘Banquet of God’
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ is the caller to it.
The ‘home’ is Paradise.
The ‘attendees’ are the believers.
The first step is to accept the invitation.
The only door to the Quran is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
…meaning a conceptualization without a reality. To know is not to be. Rather, to be is to know. The former is a secular model of knowledge, while the latter is the correct representation of the Islamic spiritual tradition. It is for this reason that…2/
…our new tafsir sub-genre focuses on making a direct connection between the Quran and the PEOPLE of the Quran as the only true vehicle to the realization of divine meanings. We can SAY we respect women, but we DO differently, a phenomenon not so uncommon in our community…3/
May Allah’s infinite peace & blessings be upon Rasūlullāh, his pure progeny & folk, along with his gleaming companions, illuminated inheritors, and all loyal followers until the Last Day.
With an earthquake of this magnitude and 100s of fault lines in the surrounding area, scientists should be immediately mapping projected after shocks & intiating evacuation of seismic hotspots. Turkey probably doesn’t have this capability and is overwhelmed with rescue efforts.
Keep praying & giving generously. We’ve all been praying to reach Ramadān. Many of our brethren won’t. Tears.
اللهم اصلح وارحم وفرج عن أمة سيدنا محمد
My Lord, shower Your Mercy, the mercy of Rajab, upon our brethren in distress.
by putting the unity of tawhīd before all other designations,
by giving what we can to aid them,
by every Muslim doing their part,
the lifeblood of our Ummah flows…
Be the Harun of every Musa
striving to do good,
struggling to uphold faith,
opressed in need of assistance,
poor in need of provision,
cold in need of shelter,
thirty in need of water,
lost in need of guidance,
brokenhearted in need of a true friend.
Be the Harun of Musa.
هَارُونَ أَخِي اشْدُدْ بِهِ أَزْرِي
my brother Aaron-
augment my strength through him
Ta Ha 20:30-31
“God is in the aid of His servant so long as he is in the aid of his brother.”
I bring attention to this because, the crux of #metafiqh is to distinguish between non-contextual and contextual rulings and to delinate the process of reaching contemporary codification. It’s a pioneering effort. May Allah grant highest tawfīq and avert all envious eyes…
May Allah bless the true fuqahā’ and grant us from their adab and ‘ilm and guide us through their deep understanding and keep us firm upon their way. آمين
It’s ironic there’s any claim to nuance on social media. That’s why we abstain from religious discourse here & guide to proper methodology instead. Prophetic inheritors have a scholarly mind, not just a tongue of transmission. I’ve searched my whole life for them and continue…
If we render Religion a goal post that we draw near to us for a “victory”, we’ll win it for the ego, lose it for the soul. Dunya is delusion for it lulls us into thinking that it’s standards suffice for happiness. True believers know better. They know what happiness truly is…
