Sometimes I tie my feet and imagine myself to be a merman; other times I close my eyes and imagine Nigeria as The World Power.

I love being a Muslim, TOO MUCH. I pray Allah makes me die a righteous Muslim.

All I have been saying.
Learn a skill, start an online business, sell something, DO 9-5, just have something doing. Walahi, if you marry a good man, you’ll still feel it when you have nothing of your own, there are still times you’ll wish you had your own money.

I love sermons and people like this coz they don’t sugarcoat anything. This is how it is, according to their belief. I will be really surprised if a Christian will look at me as a Muslim and tell me I am going to Heaven if I die as a Muslim. I will be really shocked because id think, this person doesn’t knw the doctrine of his religion Aa As a Muslim, you have no business trying to hide the true position of any Islamic doctrine. Say it as it is, you are not committing any crime. The most important thing is, let’s coexist peacefully while maintaining our differences.

Calling Islamic criminal law "barbaric" isn't a critique is an escape hatch because it allows naysayers to feel morally superior without ever having to engage with the actual law.

Yet when severe penalties are invoked, they serve a precise purpose on how deeply a society values human life and faith. Far from promoting lawless revenge, principles like qiṣāṣ replaced endless blood feuds with precise, bounded justice.

A legal system that refuses to risk severity for what it claims to value is one that will eventually implode from within. True mercy and true justice are two sides of the same coin.

"Muslims are going to Hell." "We are not serving the same God." Thanks for the clarification.

But if she ends up loving the real version of you even more than her daydreamed ideal, that’s incredibly rare and you should marry her.

Be careful not to measure your relationship with Allah solely by how you feel. There will be days when your iman feels strong, when worship comes easily, and when your heart feels deeply connected to Allah. And there will be days when you struggle to find that same sweetness.

But sincerity isn’t only found in moments of spiritual ease. Sometimes, it is reflected in choosing to obey Allah even when your heart feels distant and your motivation is low.

Don’t let a temporary feeling of spiritual weakness become a reason to abandon the acts of worship that bring you closer to Him. The Prophet said: “The most beloved deeds to Allah are those that are most consistent, even if they are few.” 📖 Sahih al-Bukhari 6464

Also responsible for brain-rot amongst readers. I don’t trust booktok recommendations at all. You’ll never catch me there.
BookTok recommendations are responsible for some of the worst books becoming bestsellers.

If they die, it’s murder. Death sentence.
If I catch someone putting poison in my food, can I force the person to eat it? Hope it's not against the law.
