Glory be to the One on Whom our souls are in His Hands, avert the Fitnah (temptation, trial; sedition, civil strife, conflict) that we are in. Don't forsake us because of our evil or sins. No one with a conscience wants to see his fellow countrymen in great pain and sorrow.
Our reality indeed is truly excruciating.
“I believe that the world ought to be governed by some morals, no matter what you call it. Without it, I think a chaotic state will ensue. This may be in the form of religion or some form of accepted norm-whatever.

@ArewaPeople “Governor Ganduje has humiliated the north. He has desecrated the revered emirate mystique of northern Nigeria. This nuisance may continue until Almajiris turns Emirs to lapdogs. Babangida started it, Abacha joined in 1996, Obasanjo and Aliero took it to another
“level in 2005. These men are former Presidents. Now a Governor is threatening an emir as though he is a councillor. Soon a local government chairman will depose the Emir of Bauchi, and soon again road transport workers will banish an Emir of Daura. Ganduje is sowing the seeds

May my life be a sacrifice for all creation for the sake of the Merciful Lord. Supremacy, authority and power belong to the Almighty and All-Aware Creator alone. What is the ultimate reward man will ever desire? Tell me. To seek His Countenance. Then what has lured us away from
His Graciousness? What then has made us transgressed all bounds? I humbly appeal to the collective consciousness of Humanity to accept the One and Only God: God the Eternal, the Uncaused Cause of All Being. He begets not, and neither is He begotten, and there is nothing that

Isn't it weird that Muslims want non-Muslim to understand their cause but when NonMuslim raise concerns they become forget the concept of empathy — @RawootTiktik in @AJUpFront
Islam protects the places of worship of non-Muslims & allows them to observe their religious ceremonies
Allah says:
[To those against whom war is made, permission is given (to fight), because they are wronged;- and verily, Allah is most powerful for their aid;- (They are) those who have been expelled from their homes in defiance of right,- (for no cause) except that they say,

Our relationship with Allah (SWT) will not be complete until we honour women as they should be honoured. — Ustadha Ieasha Prime (@risconvention)

Quoting my aunt, I would like to expatiate to the issue by referring our social malaise we found ourselves in. Looking at our history and following the footstep of the Best Exemplar known to man, we can learn that the most sensitive & crucial relationship to man is his treatment

Aspire to inspire before you expire. Thank you @leila_c for giving us hope (@Samasource). Indeed, it to God our Creator is the Final Return.
"Let him who is without sin among you be the first to cast a stone at her." —Jesus the son of Mary (Peace be Upon Them All) John 8:7
How many sins have nations committed in the name of their sovereignty for their people?
Respect other nation's sovereignty. Do not cast a stone (missile, propaganda, hate speech, anything that will harm) at your neighbours (far or close). “And do not condemn and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.”

Please, can't we use our God-given intellect to save Humanity from the Wrath of the Avenger (al-Muntaqim)? We are obsessed with the limited time in this Transitory World & possessed with the illusion of supremacy. Stop! Reconsider. Think. Reflect on these Three Grand Revelations,
It might be said that from the Islamic point of view creation and revelation are inseparable and that there are, in-fact three grand revelations: the cosmos, the human state, and religions—all three of which Islam sees as “books.”

We keep moving, undeterred by the scorching brutality of the day. We cannot relent; who will feed and cloth and love our kids and family if we wait to rest? Who will bear my burden if I tire?
Who will pay my debts to my parents, if I don't bleed to earn the coin with which to wipe their sweat? Love and duty push me on. We all are wayfarers in this transient reality, living every breath like a gift.
