The street is no longer the only thing that needs checking, because nowadays a woman will be exposed to more via her phone than she will ever be exposed to on the streets — even if she wanders them the entire day.
In purer eras like theirs, they were cautious of what their women would come across on the roads. Today we have brothers who have no idea what the women of their house are seeing, hearing, and learning via their devices, nor do they have a care to even find out.
Many sisters may dislike this idea, but a man who is responsible over any woman should be overseeing her social media and have a general awareness of what’s on her phone and who’s in her friends circle. Suspicion is not what we’re talking about here, we’re talking about being informed and aware. What apps does she use? Which accounts is she following? Who are the sisters she keeps as friends and what types of families do their hail from (religious or modern)? How many hours a day does she spend scrolling/texting? Is she wasting her time on social media or is she benefiting? For what purpose does she use her social media (benefit or entertainment)? Who’s in her contacts? Is she communicating with any men (even if it’s a food delivery driver)? A man should know all this and keep watch on it, not because he suspects her, but because whatever she does under his nose, he’s responsible for and he must ensure that she doesn’t expose herself to harmful ideologies, friends, or sights that will negatively effect her Ākhirah and their relationship.
It’s not necessary or encouraged for him to scroll through her photo gallery or texts with women who are non-Mahram to him (as these actions may breach an Āmanah or expose another woman’s ‘Awrah and private information), but he should be aware of what she does and who she contacts, and negligence in this matter leads to evil consequences. Very few women are mature enough or have enough foresight to know what’s dangerous or harmful for them in this matter or to avoid being influenced negatively. This applies not just to one’s wife, but also to his daughters, sisters, and any other women he has guardianship or responsibility over.

Shaykh Ahmad Mūsā Jibrīl حفظه الله said:
“A Muwahhid has Ghīrah on his Tawhīd, and therefore he dislikes the presence of such filthy people (deviants in ‘Aqīdah and modernists), let alone making Salāh behind them and around them. In fact, leaving Salāh behind them is part of preserving the good and forbidding the evil. Many Ulamā’ deterred from Salāh behind a Murjī’ in the past, yet they were much better in their ‘Aqīdah than the filthy modernists of today. They said the same about the Jahmīyyah and the Qadarīyyah.”

“Whosoever honours the Symbols of Allah, then it is truly from the piety of the heart.” — 22:32
The first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah are among the most sacred moments in the Islamic calendar, days that Allah Himself has exalted. So honored are they that He swore by them in His Book, and Allah does not swear except by what is magnificent, noble, and elevated in rank.
In reverence to our Lord, we too honor these days as an expression of our veneration for Him.
These days are so weighty in virtue that time spent in worship—reciting the Qur’an, engaging in dhikr, and performing acts of devotion—is more rewarding than Jihad in the path of Allah during any other time of the year, including Ramadan. The only exception is the one who goes forth in the path of Allah with his life and wealth, and returns with neither.
Simply recognizing the sanctity of these ten blessed days and being mindful of their immense virtue is itself a source of reward—so how tremendous must the reward be for those who engage in righteous deeds during them!
Whatever good deeds you do—or continue to do—during these ten days, add the intention of doing them out of reverence for what Allah has honored. The intention to honor Allah’s sacred symbols increases the reward of your actions.
If you’ve missed the earlier days, don’t lose heart, there is still time, and today is certainly not a day to let slip by.
Today is a day crowned with a triple honor—a day unlike any other:
•It is part of the best days of the year: the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah,
•It falls on the best day of the week: Friday,
•And within it lies the precious Hour of Response (Sa’at al-Ijabah), a time in which du‘ās are answered.
These ten days are unlike any other…
They are days in which hearts are healed, du‘ās are answered, and the gates of heaven are flung wide open. So pour out your soul in supplication, and anchor your heart to the door of the One who says, “Be!”—and it is.
Seek out the sacred moments in which du‘ās are most likely to be accepted.
Within these days, a sincere call upon your Lord—“Yā Rabb”—could transform your life in ways you never imagined.
To honor and recognize the value of Allah’s sacred seasons and symbols is a sign of a heart alive with taqwā and īmān.
If you wish to measure the state of taqwā in your heart, look to how much you honor what Allah has honored, by respecting their sanctity, filling them with righteous deeds, and avoiding sins.
Whoever misses these days has missed a great treasure and a tremendous reward.
Don’t let these days slip away—
they are rare opportunities, windows of divine mercy that may never return.

The war on Gaza has not ceased — it has merely morphed into grimmer, more insidious forms.
The bombs still rain from the sky. The children still perish. The siege tightens with each passing day.
And now, atop the shattered remnants of homes and lives, the assault has transformed into a war waged through starvation, through silence, through a deliberate and merciless neglect.
This is a war waged not only with missiles, but with malnutrition. With blocked aid. With the deafening quiet of a world that chooses to look away. As Gaza bleeds and crumbles beneath the weight of destruction, the world reclines on cushions of indifference.
Let history bear witness: While Trump is an active participant in the war on Gaza, he is warmly welcomed in Bilād al-Haramayn and now boasts of extracting $5.1 trillion in jizyah from the Tawāghīt in the Gulf within mere hours — a sum vast enough to drown every inch of Palestine in tanks and saturate its skies with warplanes. And yet, these same Tawāghīt cannot muster even a handful of grain, a vial of medicine, or a drop of clean water for Gaza’s children.
Qatar’s Taghout awards Trump with a private jet — and no one dares to ask:
Why not send aid to Gaza instead?
Why reward a man who emboldens those who bomb us?
Why empower those who cheer our devastation?
Where are the voices that once roared for Gaza?
Where are the influencers who leveraged Gaza’s agony to build their names — only to vanish when truth was no longer profitable or popular?
The betrayer in Bilād al-Shām cozies up to the Zionists and the U.S., all the while crushing those who strive to raise the banner of Tawḥīd — fulfilling his bay‘ah to his new amir, Trump.
The rest remain silent — a silence that echoes the stillness of the grave. Are we to endure this passivity until the genocide leaves none of them alive?
The media's gaze has turned elsewhere.
The opportunists have disappeared.
But the sincere — those who stood for Allah alone — must not falter. Now, more than ever, they must stand beside their brothers and sisters in Gaza, unwavering in loyalty and steadfast in faith.
Today, Gaza suffocates — in silence, in isolation.
And yet it remains a gaping wound upon the conscience of this Ummah — festering with every moment of neglect and apathy.
Ya Allah, they have transgressed throughout the land and spread corruption far and wide — so unleash upon them a scourge of Your punishment.
Ya Allah, humble — and afflict with even greater suffering than that borne by the people of Gaza — those who call themselves Muslims, yet cast their vote for Trump.

The most exalted day of the year for du‘ā has dawned — the blessed Day of ‘Arafah.
Prepare your heart and your du‘ā from now, for this is a day when du‘ā are answered, hopes are fulfilled, sins are forgiven, faults are pardoned, and souls are freed from the Fire.
Approach this day with profound humility. Renounce reliance on your own might, and acknowledge that all strength and power belong solely to Allah. Embrace the truth of human frailty and surrender entirely to Him.
Let your supplications flow abundantly and unceasingly. Immerse your heart and tongue in dhikr, du‘ā, and heartfelt recitation of the Qur’an. It is reported that among the pious predecessors, some would spend the Day of ‘Arafah seated in deep remembrance and prayer, yearning for the mercy of their Lord.
Make your du‘ā lengthy and persistent. Return again and again with your most intimate personal requests — and do not forget the oppressed and the afflicted among this Ummah.
Know with Yaqeen that when Allah grants, His generosity surpasses all imagination. The arrows of du‘ā on the Day of ‘Arafah — by Allah’s infinite permission — never miss their mark.
Whoever remains steadfast in du‘ā shall be granted enduring joy and ‘āfiyah.
The great scholar Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr said:
“The supplication on the Day of ‘Arafah is better than on any other day… and the du‘ā of ‘Arafah is, in most cases, accepted.”
And in Latā’if al-Ma‘ārif, Ibn Rajab relates that one of the righteous said:
“By Allah, I have never made a du‘ā on the Day of ‘Arafah, and a year passed without seeing it answered — as clearly as the break of dawn.”
The Day of ‘Arafah is a majestic and awe-inspiring day — a day when the signs of Allah’s mercy are clearly manifest.
It presents a sacred opportunity to renew one’s faith, realign one’s path, and make a sincere, heartfelt resolution to repent and submit wholly to Allah — not only for the coming year, but for a lifetime.
As virtuous as Laylat al-Qadr is, we do not know which night among the last ten it truly is.
But we do know the Day of ‘Arafah — the 9th of Dhul-Hijjah — and this year, it falls on Thursday, tomorrow.
On Laylat al-Qadr, Jibrīl and the angels descend, and that is a tremendous virtue.
But on the Day of ‘Arafah, Allah descends in a manner befitting His Majesty.
It is a day when the signs of Tawḥīd are renewed and exalted, and when pure servitude to Allah alone — without any partner — is fully realized.
That is why it is mentioned that among the recommended supplications for the Day of ‘Arafah is a du‘ā of Tawḥīd:
“Lā ilāha illa Allāh, waḥdahu lā sharīka lah, lahu al-mulku wa lahu al-ḥamd, wa huwa ‘alā kulli shay’in qadīr.”
“There is no god but Allah, alone without partner. His is the dominion and His is the praise, and He has power over all things.”
One must be vigilant not to fall short on this sacred day — for it is a moment that cannot be reclaimed, an opportunity that may never come again.
Don’t forget to fast on this blessed day (if you are not performing Hajj), for it expiates the sins of the previous year and the year to come.
Ya Allah, let not the Day of ‘Arafah pass except that You have lifted from us every burden, eased our affairs, and answered our du‘ā.
Ya Allah, Most Compassionate, swiftly grant freedom to the imprisoned Muslims wherever they may be, and free our sisters enduring hardship and suffering in the camps.
Ya Allah, Protector of the helpless, shield our children, our brothers, and our sisters in Gaza and elsewhere from harm and despair.
Ya Allah, bring down the ṭawāghīt who spread corruption and injustice far and wide — those who conspired with the disbelievers against the believers —
in Gaza and in Baghuz.
Ya Allah, grant the righteous and sincere Muwaḥḥidīn a clear, resounding victory.
Ya Allah, Most Merciful, envelop us all in Your boundless pardon, infinite gentleness, and overwhelming mercy.

The most opportune day for heartfelt duaa…
The optimal time to make duaa starts at Thuhur and lasts until Maghrib, a cherished period by many in the past who saved their yearlong needs eagerly awaiting the chance to seek Allah's blessings and address their needs on this day.
May Allah swiftly release our sisters in the camps, free all our captives, protect our brothers and sisters in Gaza and beyond, and grant victory to the Muwahideen that brings joy to our hearts.

Both Iran and the Yahudi occupiers in Palestine have consistently stood as unwavering adversaries of Ahl al-Sunnah.
Their legacies are marked by conflict, persecution, and the shedding of innocent Ahl al-Sunnah blood. The suffering and massacres they have inflicted worldwide upon Ahl al-Sunnah are deeply etched into the annals of Islamic history.
For every sincere adherent of Ahl al-Sunnah, the downfall and destruction of these two enemies of Islam—whose hands have long been stained by the oppression of Ahl al-Sunnah—should be met with profound rejoicing.
The missiles raining down upon both nations ought to be met with a sincere sajdah of shukr to Allah ﷻ.
Their collapse transcends mere politics; it represents a symbolic victory for the steadfast followers of Ahl al-Sunnah who have endured their tyranny, and for all who uphold the true essence of Tawheed.
May Allah heal and soothe the hearts of Ahl al-Sunnah in Gaza, Syria, and beyond, who have endured genocides at the hands of these nations.
May Allah destroy both nations and make their downfall a means for the righteous Muwahideen to emerge victorious.

In the Name of Allah, Ar-Rahman, Ar-Raheem
We're delighted to announce the launch of a website dedicated solely to the Da'wah work and efforts of Shaykh Musa Jibril (حفظه الله تعالى).
https://musajibril.org
We want to first thank Allah (سبحانه وتعالى) Alone, for blessing this effort insha’Allah, and allowing us the privilege of working on this project which is dear to our hearts — it is only by the Fadhl of Allah Alone we were able to complete it.
Then we'd like to thank our beloved Shaykh Musa Jibril حفظه الله تعالى for his tireless efforts and continuous striving in the Da’wah to Allah. By Allah, we say it without exaggeration, that not a single lecture we’ve listened to from the Shaykh, except its entered our hearts. Like how are beloved Shaykh Ahmad (who learnt it from Shaykh Musa حفظهم الله تعالى) said:
“What comes from the heart, enters the heart.”
We couldn’t go without thanking those who have worked tirelessly behind the scenes — not seeking praise or status, just seeking His Face سبحانه وتعالى — whether it was graphic design, trannoscription, or dictating the speech of the Shaykh, to share it with the Ummah.
We'd like to especially thank the beloved brother who designed and coded this website (amongst others) from scratch. Always being responsive whenever a need or question arises, or a feature is requested. We can't repay him with anything except our Dua, فجزاه الله خير الجزاء. I ask Allah to accept from him, and keep him sincere in his efforts.
We hope this will be a lasting legacy for Shaykh Musa’s invaluable Da'wah, and a means to raise his ranks to the highest levels of Firdaws. We ask Allah to grant our beloved Shaykh and his family a long life full of pious Deeds, and His Protection from every evil and evil doer.
والحمدلله رب العالمين

Not establishing a strong base of Nafli ‘Ibādāt is one of the factors that lead to relapsing into misguidance, abandoning the Manhaj, and becoming a caller to misguidance — a phenomenon far too common among the youth.
Shaykh Ahmad Mūsā Jibrīl حفظه الله said, “I dare you to bring me any Shahīd إن شاء الله — any of the righteous, knowledgeable people or the Shuhadā’ who did not get up or have a history of praying the night Qiyām. I dare you that! Why do you think the so-called “scholars” today, the ignorant heads of today who are called scholars have led people astray? Because that forehead of theirs does not bow at night time and ask Allāh for guidance like Ibn Taymiyyah and Imām Ahmad Ibn Hanbal did. A forehead that bows in prostration to Allāh at night time could not get up during the day time and lead the masses (the Ummah) astray in matters of 'Aqīdah that were never disputed or please the Kuffār.”
Too often we see young brothers and sisters just mere weeks into adopting the correct creed, yet the majority of their days are spent socializing on social media, scrolling endlessly and consuming things above their understanding, and engaging in back and forth debates that are way above their level. If they had cut out these distractions and avenues employed by the Shaytān to plant doubts, and instead invested that time and energy into seeking beneficial knowledge and engaging in ‘Ibādah, that would aid them in remaining steadfast upon the correct Manhaj and cementing their beliefs. Instead, many skip the knowledge they should be learning, perhaps because it’s not the topic of “trending” debates, and jump to “learning” about the hefty matters so that they can jump in and give their opinions under every other post. Shortly thereafter, you find these same individuals confused, misguided, and Manhaj-hopping.
Reflect: A building without a strong foundation is bound to topple from even the slightest winds — the foundation here being Taqwā (built from Nawāfil, seeking beneficial knowledge, and self-reflection and rectification). One who attempts to run before he can walk will only trip and land on his face, and likewise one who jumps into matters he can’t fully understand or comprehend before cementing that which relates to him directly and personally of knowledge will only end up humiliating himself — and the worst humiliation is misguidance.
So while this applies to all of us generally, we should specifically and emphatically advise those new to the Manhaj to
• Distance themselves from social media and from socializing with immature brothers whose sole focus is on debating, socializing, and gaining clout
• Focus on building a strong connection to Allāh and cultivating fear of Him through supererogatory acts
• And to exert their time and efforts into seeking beneficial knowledge and making their character and personal lives into a reflection of their Manhaj.
It’s ridiculous when you hear of stories of young men (and women) who aren’t praying on time, are texting sisters and discussing marriage to them WITHOUT the knowledge or involvement of their Wali, who earn Harām, can’t respect their parents, can’t purify their tongues from foul language, etc — yet they are the first to recklessly engage in topics that even the most qualified of Ulamā’ discuss with caution, casually uttering statements that may put their Ākhirah on the line.
Inshā’Allāh if such advice was heeded, we would see many less cases of people turning on their heels from the truth after a short time (and may Allāh protect ALL of us from misguidance after having been guided, not a single one of us is safe).
A reminder for the author before the readers. نسأل الله السلامة والعافية.

People who focus on the former extensively and completely neglect the latter have become an epidemic, may Allāh سبحانه وتعالى guide us, and their neglect of the latter eventually leads to betraying the former.
May Allāh سبحانه وتعالى bless the Shaykh for his wisdom in teaching and his carefully selected topics and grant him and his family the highest ranks of Firdaws.

The Du’aa of Abu Bakr Siddeeq رضي الله عنه when he was praised to his face:
" اللهم لا تؤاخذني بما يقولون ، واجعلني خيرا مما يظنون ، واغفر لي ما لا يعلمون "
“O Allāh, do not take me to account for what they say, and make me better than what they think, and forgive me for what they don’t know.”
You can fool people easily, but if people don’t know your reality, rest assured, Allāh knows it. We can’t fool our creator with our seemingly pious outer appearances and eloquent speech. Never let people’s positive opinions of you get to your head. If this was the Du’aa of the best man to walk the face of the Earth after the Prophets, then what should our attitude be when praised or thought well of?
