Stop the genocide in Palestine

✊🏽 Stop the Genocide in Palestine – A Global Call for Justice 🕊️ Every day, I wake up heartbroken, angry, and frustrated. We live in a world that claims to cherish freedom of speech and human rights, yet we continue to witness the massacre of innocent people in Palestine — and the world remains silent. The truth is deliberately ignored, distorted, or buried beneath headlines that depict Palestinians as aggressors rather than victims of decades-long violence and occupation. **Palestinians Are Not Terrorists — They Are Human Beings** Palestinians are not extremists. They are families, children, teachers, doctors, and students — human beings defending their right to exist in their homeland. The media tends to focus on Hamas, reducing the entire Palestinian population to a single narrative while ignoring the tens of thousands of innocent civilians, including over 40,000 children, who have been killed since October 7. This is not about religion or revenge. This is ethnic cleansing. This i...

True love

 Some men think it’s bad for the woman to make more than them, little do they know about Muhammad (ﷺ) and his first wife Khadijah (رضي الله عنه), she provided for him, sent her friend to arrange their marriage, He (ﷺ) actually worked for her, she say His honesty and respect. Even though they were 20 years apart she was about 40 or 41, He was 25, He did not marry another woman while He was with her and their marriage lasted 24 years ( His longest marriage) love is not about money or desire 

I love being a Muslim

 There is a good meaning to remember: Allah SWT is great these days (ten of Dhul-Hijjah), and He loves to see us great them. You may be accustomed to doing good deeds by giving charity, reading the Qur'an, teaching useful science, winning the cause of Muslims, doing good deeds and ending the disbelievers, deeds of righteousness in general.. When you continue to do it these days, pair with it the intention that you are doing it for the greatness of God. That just increases your pay for it. While you "do it, do it" naturally means, your intention to magnify God's rituals increases your reward for it... (That is, and whoever exalts the virtues of Allah, it is the one who strengthens the hearts.) Undoubtedly, the sane Muslim seizes the chances of survival and promotion, and is working harder these days than ever before. And we ask Allah to help us and you to obey Him and worship Him well. 

We need to help refugee

  I love writing Immigration and turmoil in the Middle East have always been “hot topics” that resurface in every presidential election. Even though there are many other presidents who have taken discriminatory actions against certain minorities of people, such as internment camps for the Japanese in World War II, Donald J. Trump, the 45th and 47th president with the lowest approval rating seen over 80 years of any president, proposed an unconstitutional ban for an entire race of people (Muslims) from entering the U.S, perpetuating the perception that all Muslims are terrorists. Amid all the Islamophobic hysteria, the United States is trying to deal with an unprecedented number of Syrian refugees coming into the country, who are trying to escape the Syrian Civil War. Although we are called upon to act, our political parties are very polarized; some do not believe that the United States should play much of a role in helping refugees directly or indirectly. Congress is extremely divi...

Advice for young woman

I love being Muslim and modest As someone aiming to raise strong Muslimahs, I do not like the idea of "women aren't safe anywhere." Because that instills fear in our girls/women. Now that doesn't mean we aren't wise in how we move and where we go, it also doesn't mean we don't follow Islamic rulings of traveling with mahram etc if we have mahram around. Or that we unnecessarily go outside or put ourselves in wrong situations and locations. Or we go out uncovered.  What it means is as we follow all that we remember ultimately Allah is protecting us. If some harm has to come our way it can come anywhere. We don't live our life in fear. We are smart, we have situational awareness. We learn skills necessary for our safety. We follow rules. We do all that because we gotta tie our camel. And after that we fully and wholeheartedly Trust Allah. A scared woman is an easy target. Because fear shows, it shows through body language, it shows through how you move a...

Women's and social media

 I keep hearing a lot on social media that we need to teach women the importance of being a wife and mother so her focus is not on career or earning money. I truly believe, it's not only the women but more so men that we need to teach that to. The thoughts and beliefs that lead women into career mindset are along the lines of "for worst day I need it", "I don't have to beg anyone for money," "I feel respected," "I am valued at work" etc etc. Our brothers need to truly self reflect. It's not a debate here. It is simply for everyone to self reflect upon. The women who choose to stay at home and prioritize their home and children: - are they assured they'll be taken care of even on the worst day by their men? (even if u die, have u planned well for her after u r gone? What is it going to look like for her if u divorce her?) - do these women get reasonable amount of freedom over the money their men make OR are they frequently reminded...

I want to go umarah again

 Thank you so much Kulsoom for everything, you are now part of Ayesha’s small world. Thank you so much Muhsen, we would have never thought of taking Ayesha for Umrah, if it wasn’t for Muhsen Umrah. You guys did an awesome thing, beyond our wildest dreams was Ayesha touching the Khana Kaaba. Thank you Wali, Kamal, Mohammed and all of the Muhsen team. I would say it was a dream team of Muhsen Umrah. Thank you so much to sister Joohi, sister Roohi and brother Sheikh Ibrahim for putting together this wonderful event. Ayesha already wants to go for Hajj. 🤞 I also want to say thank you to all the families for being there to support everyone. Everyone involved in Muhsen Umrah, May Allah grant all your wishes which are good for you and your families. Aameen Ya Rubul Aalameen
