Some say “Abandon Harris,” others say “Abandon Trump,” whereas a true Muslim says, “Abandon Voting!”

May Allah grant the U.S. the president that will best serve the destruction of its economy from within, due to its explicit funding of the massacre of our children in Gaza, and elsewhere.

رَبَّنَا اطْمِسْ عَلَىٰ أَمْوَالِهِمْ وَاشْدُدْ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِمْ فَلَا يُؤْمِنُوا حَتَّىٰ يَرَوُا الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ

Rab. II 27, 1446 AH

Met a very elderly villager recently (الله يجزاهم خير), who spoke in a dialect of my native language that I have trouble understanding. We attempted to converse with difficulty (due to my slow understanding of the dialect) here and there over the days we spent around each other. At one point, they asked me, “How much Qur’ān have you memorized thus far?” I hesitated, as I wanted to maintain the secrecy of the deed, and responded with a general truth.

“Probably somewhat more than [insert amount] Ajzā’.”

They responded, “Oh Masha’Allah.” And then, after a pause, continued saying, “You will have to lessen your sleep soon.”

“Sleep??” I inquired, confused at the sudden switch of topics. Perhaps I was misunderstanding again.

“Sleep!” they responded, as if it was obvious. “You know, once one becomes a Hāfidh, they can’t sleep a lot anymore, they have to sleep less at night because of the Qur’ān they know.” They were referring to Qiyām Al-Layl.

The answer struck me in the heart like a ton of bricks. I was shaken at the reminder. I spent hours awake that night thinking about their statement. They didn’t know my answer had been a deliberate understatement, nor were they anything near a Hāfidh or person of knowledge themselves, but they understood the responsibility of Hifdh better than me.

How can I sleep? How can I smile? How has the worldly life beguiled me so? If a human expects my worship to be increased merely due to what they think they know of my Hifdh, then what are the expectations of the One who surely knows the reality of the amount of my Hifdh of His Words?!

Perhaps I have failed the test and only gained the Qur’ān as a witness against me on Yawm Al-Qiyāmah! Allāh Allāh! What has become of my state!

Academic achievements and trophies are framed and hung on designated walls in peoples homes, while the Mus’hafs are in the back of a drawer or shelf somewhere covered in a layer of thick dust.

Parents celebrate and display joy like madmen upon the worldly achievements of their children, but they don’t even notice when their children pass weeks without picking up their Mus’haf.

They never forgot to do their homework a day in their lives, but when someone inquires about the month that passed by where they never touched their Mus’haf, the excuse is “I forgot”.

The things that people consider valuable in their lives are always very obvious — and they will be even more obvious on Yawm Al-Qiyāmah.

وَقَالَ ٱلرَّسُولُ يَـٰرَبِّ إِنَّ قَوْمِى ٱتَّخَذُوا۟ هَـٰذَا ٱلْقُرْءَانَ مَهْجُورًۭا

And the Messenger has said, "O my Lord, indeed my people have taken this Qur’ān as [a thing] abandoned."
[25:30]

Do you think yourself exempt from having the Messenger ﷺ testify against you for your neglect of Allāh’s Book?

If your “forget” about the Qur’ān often, be afraid of Allāh forgetting you.

Judgement belongs to none but Allah!

إِنِ ٱلْحُكْمُ إِلَّا لِلَّه

The ignorant individual who participates in democratic elections and the idiots who have a defective mind and are short sighted that invite people along with themselves to commit this apostasy (kufr) with the false excuse of lesser of the two evils! Are they so ignorant they don’t know there is no such excuse for committing apostasy against Allah?!

The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said a believer is not bitten from the same hole twice.

Those disbelievers who encourage and even promote the spread of kufr - democracy - need to stop deceiving and encouraging people to take part in the democratic elections and camafloucging the evilness of such a system of disbelief. When will they stop?? They have disbelieved in Allah and His Message. Let the Muslims wake up and take heed with a mere two examples amongst countless.

In a recently previous election, a candidate won through the vote of the Muslims. They rationalized their votes by citing the need to select the lesser of two evils, aiding his victory. So, they sacrificed their religion and disbelieved by disregarding the laws of Allah and had him win the elections with the hope that he would aid the Muslims locally and globally. What was the result of their disbelief and trusting in other than Allah? Contrary to their expectations, the world never saw a more destructive man towards the Ummah! He made the whole world fight Islam and the Muslims, resulting in devastation and continuous conflict. He waged war on two Muslim countries, absolutely annihilated every reminiscence of those countries and the Muslim brethren there. He fought them and continued to fight non stop for twenty years. He established a global war against Islam. He inflamed extreme anti-Muslim hatred worldwide, even turning the Muslims against each other. One economist said the money he spent on destroying those countries, if you were to fill the entire Earth with 100 dollar bills it would reach heaven! See how much money he spent on his effort to try and eradicate Islam?!

This incident alone serves as a sufficient warning; Muslims need to turn to Allah alone. Justice will never be implemented without the Shari’ah of Allah. But they chose to remain ignorant and were fooled by the dollar for scholars, so, they continued in their Shirk and misguidance voting in another president.

Let it be known, the Muslim blood is not cheap and the hand of every single person who played a part will pay on the Judgement Day - including the so called Muslims who commit Shirk and partake in democratic elections - we find no excuse for your ignorance and idiocy! You are all responsible. Rather than seeking to justify your actions or pointing fingers at others, it's crucial to acknowledge and take responsibility for your own transgressions. As for the one who says everyone who is elected will cause havoc, at least don’t aid the oppressor with your support! Each individual will be held accountable for their actions on the Day of Judgment. Ignorance and folly cannot serve as a shield.

For a second time, they fell back on the same misguided and foolish justifications and committed Shirk. A political candidate—a pawn of the Devil—recited a few translations of Ahadith, and the Muslims went crazy for him. The retard who can’t walk or speak properly propelled into office by ignorant Muslims. Their actions did not stop at their own transgression; they incited others to apostate and to turn away from their religion, using the flawed rationale of choosing the lesser evil by voting for this man. And upon his victory, what followed? He wreaked havoc upon sacred lands, he annihilated our blessed land, he took Aqsa from the Muslims and destroyed our brethren. We witnessed another Crusader attack. Crimes committed that history never witnessed before! He demolished, destroyed and annihilated. Widespread devastation ensued—unstoppable by the populace.

This flawed notion of democracy is nothing but a ruse, a mere deceit.

In Islam there is no democracy, it’s all kufr - the law of the people, by the people, for the people. Who will ensure justice? Sovereignty belongs exclusively to Allah alone. It is Allah’s rule. Allah is the only judge and ruler. It is His laws that should be followed, not the arbitrary laws made by humans.

Those with power need to stop driving the masses towards decay, disbelief and leading them to corruption and kufr by following democracy.

Republicans and Democrats are two facets of the same issue, two sides of the same coin. It leads you only to two bleak options. Embracing democracy is disbelief. You cannot embrace it, implement it, invite to it or endorse it. It’s Kufr. Its entire concept is Kufr and it is evil and we see this throughout its entire history, nothing good ever came out of it. If they fool you in one way with their niceties, know for sure, they have destroyed your brothers elsewhere. Any engagement with democracy, whether adopting, executing, or encouraging participation, such as voting in its processes, is disbelief.

Those who encourage participation in democratic elections seem to have no sense of extent of the harm caused as a consequence of their actions (e.g., votes).
Look at when a Muslim country was invaded under false pretenses, with lies and deception used on the public as a justification for their invasion. They lied and fabricated to blindsight the people so they could excuse the horrors and atrocities they carried out on millions of innocent people.

وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَعَالَوْا۟ إِلَىٰ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ وَإِلَى ٱلرَّسُولِ رَأَيْتَ ٱلْمُنَـٰفِقِينَ يَصُدُّونَ عَنكَ صُدُودًۭا

And when it is said to them: “Come to what Allah has sent down and to the Messenger (Muhammad),” you see the hypocrites turn away from you with stubbornness and aversion.

اولاد دُنیا کی دولت سے امیر بن جائے تو ماں باپ ڈر ڈر کے بات کرتے ہیں کہ کہیں اولاد ناراض نہ ہو جائے، لیکن جب اولاد ایمان کی دولت سے امیر ہو جائے تو وہ ڈر ڈر کے بات کرتے ہیں کہ کہیں ماں باپ ناراض نہ ہو جائیں۔

"When children become rich with worldly wealth, the parents address them with fear and hesitance, lest they cause them to become displeased,

But when the children become rich in Īmān, they’re the ones who speak with fear and hesitance, lest they displease their parents."

Tafsīr al-Qur'ān al-'Adhīm: Al-Fātihah | 15 - Shaykh Ahmad Jibril

37 _ Furū' Al-Fiqh _ Ahmad Musa Jibril

The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said, “A woman should not look at or touch another woman and then describe her to her husband in such a way as if he was actually looking at her.” [Al-Bukhāri & Muslim]

Shaykh Ahmad Mūsā Jibrīl حفظه الله said, “How many women who may be on the Haqq shamelessly & freely describe women they sat with to their brothers or usually to husbands?”

Reminder to the sisters: you have a duty to your Muslim sisters and friends to protect their modesty around the men in your life, so take that Amānah with seriousness and be trustworthy in it.

It’s very sad to know that many sisters go around talking about their friends and their lives in such detail, to the extent that their husbands and brothers know their friends almost as well as she does! Or that when they speak on the phone with their friends, they do so within earshot of male relatives — and a lot about a woman’s appearance or habits can be revealed in overhearing a casual discussions between friends.

Some sisters spend their whole lives covering for Allāh’s sake and hiding themselves to the best of their abilities, while they’re oblivious to the fact that they’re known to some non-related men as “the tall one”, “the pretty one”, “the fair/dark one”, “the red headed one”, “the one with the beautiful [insert features]” all due to the negligence of her companions. Often, some sisters will not reveal such details about their friends to the male family members directly, but to other women in places where the men can and do hear the conversation, and therefore they still come to know about the denoscription of other women. This is pure negligence on the part of the women, and results in great evil in families, friendships, and society at large.

And what’s related to this matter is those who may be careful about physically describing their sisters in Islām, but they have no issue describing every other thing about their personalities, lives, habits, likes, and dislikes. Beware sisters, this is a gateway to Fitnah and a breach of the Amānah of your sisters! Why should your husband, brother, or father need to know how funny, witty, emotional, or soft spoken your friends are? There are certain qualities that Muslim women seek to hide from non-related males in attempts to ward off Fitnah from themselves, but many of the women around them insist on instigating it for them instead, والله المستعان. Beware of unintentionally describing the “desirable” qualities of your friends/relatives to the men in your life when there is no need to do so, lest you stir up some type of desires that may lead to great ruin. And the men have a duty to censor their womenfolk when they hear them engaging in such talk in their presence. Remind them of the Hadīth quoted above and the duty they owe to their sisters in preserving their privacy and modesty.

This all applies to all Muslim women in general, but one should caution to the sisters to take even more care and act with even more vigilance when speaking about their Niqābi sisters. Those who have donned the Shar’ī Niqāb have usually gone through a lot of difficulty to maintain the peak of modesty in their physical appearance, and it’s only right that one should practice the peak of caution when mentioning them personally. We know some sisters who even refuse to refer to their veiled friends by name around non-Mahrams out of respect to their Hayā’, only referencing them as “so and so’s wife/sister/daughter” instead. Don’t be the friend that forcefully unveils her sister before the entire world when she sought to remain hidden from its sight.

May Allāh سبحانه وتعالى forgive us, guide us, and rectify our mistakes. May He protect the modesty of the Muslimāt and increase them in it.

— Al Qawāreer

When Allāh blesses you with free time and resources, take advantage and give your all to ‘Ibādāt & Da’wah — and savor and enjoy it! You never know when, but a time will come upon you when you will only be able to look back and reminisce on what you were able to do when you had the ability.

Times change, people change, responsibilities pile, worries increase, free time dwindles, resources slip away, and ideas become inexecutable, among many other possible obstacles.

A wise Muslim exerts himself to the utmost level to ensure that he will have the least possible amount of regret about where he spent his best and easiest days.

May Allāh سبحانه وتعالى enable us to do what He loves and what pleases Him.

"We should not eat Turkey and say our intention was otherwise; there are 364 days in the year for you to enjoy your Turkey, to choose that day (Thanksgiving) specifically is symbolically participating in their holidays."

— Shaykh Ahmad Musa Jibril حفظه الله

— copied from Haqq Hurts Hypocrites

American “Muslims” will cancel Thanksgiving due to its genocidal roots, but not because the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ forbid celebrating the holidays of Jahiliyyah and commanded us to be different from the disbelievers.

To most, being “woke” and politically correct is more important than being Muslim. Your Dhabīha Turkey doesn’t make it Halāl!

“But we’re just having a family dinner because I’m off and so are the kids, we’re not really celebr—“

Stop fooling yourself. That’s celebration. Call it whatever you want, that doesn’t change the reality. May Allāh guide us!

📖 An excellent booklet emphasizing the importance of not only avoiding celebrating the holidays of the disbelievers, but avoiding the disbelievers all together during their celebrations!

The Shaykh حفظه الله cites proof from the Qur’an and Sunnah, the Statements of the Sahābah, and Scholars.

A must read for you and your family. May Allah guide us to what He Loves.

Q. My children have recently been exposed to the concept of birthdays. They saw children blowing out candles on a cake after singing them a birthday song. My question is, is it permissible to put candles on an Eid cake and have the kids blow it out so they don’t feel left out?

A. Absolutely not. You cannot do that. This becomes imitating the unbelievers in their festivals and celebrations. You’re imitating birthdays and attempting to put an Islamic twist on it. In reality, this exposes children to watering down their religion from a young age to fit the customs and cultures of the unbelievers over standing firmly and steadfast to the rope of Allah. What happens when Muslims are ignorant about concepts such as this and view it to be minor, you end up eventually seeing Muslim families having a Turkey on thanksgiving or a roast dinner on Christmas in the name of “just spending time with the family” or “just eating a dinner together.” Some go as far as even putting up trees in their homes during Christmas and decorating it with all sorts of excuses like “a creative activity for the kids” or “my children will feel left out.” They do everything the unbelievers do but remove the name thinking it’s then permissible. You are only fooling yourselves. You’re stripping away the solid Islamic foundation Islam instructs. We have firm, Islamic, Monotheistic, non-comprisable beliefs. The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “Whosoever imitates a people is one of them.”

Islam covers every aspect of our lives, you cannot give something you don’t have and that’s why knowledge of this religion is crucial for everyone! We are proud of our ways and that’s also a reason why we are prohibited to imitate the unbelievers, because it shows a preference, a loyalty and love for their ways over ours. It is a defeatist mentality right from the beginning. Allah said (interpretation of the meaning): “This day I have perfected for you your religion, and completed My Blessing upon you, and have approved for you as religion, Submission (Islam).”

It’s depressing how casually some allegedly “practicing” youth engage in sins that people used feel ashamed to even take the name of.

You hide from people and fear being exposed to them, yet you have no awareness that you are in the sight of Allāh day in and day out with no barrier? What a deficiency in Īmān and what a calamity…When one remembers Allāh’s Watchfulness over him, he should immediately feel humbled, exposed, and at risk of His Punishment snatching him up from where he doesn’t expect. But today, to many, Allāh سبحانه وتعالى is the least important of the ones they fear seeing their sins.

We come across reminders such as those warning sisters not to flirt with brothers in private chats and to not engage in exchanging indecent photos, and I can’t help but question, “Does a believing women even think of doing that?”

Reminders warning brothers to avoid watching the major Fawāhish (that will not be named), but SubhānAllāh, you question, “Does a Mu’min really go that far?”

Reminders only stem from a need for them, so when one sees reminder after reminder warning the believers to avoid the immorality, indecency, language, behavior, and mannerisms of the Kuffār, which is only Fāhishah and vulgarity, it gets you wondering, “How bad has it gotten that those who claim to be guided and display shows of Iltizām are in need of having these issues addressed to them?”

Not a question that one really wants an answer to, to be honest.

نسأل الله السلامة
