I’ve been teaching my daughter the concept of calling upon her lord and seeking His help before turning to others. Today I found her on the phone on the balcony “talking to Allah” 😂🤣
Apparently the Israeli government has put restrictions in place which prevent Palestinians from fishing. However, it seems they don’t have to go far as thousands of fish appear at the shores.
#Alhamdulilah
yaa Rabb 🤲🏽
My daughter sneezed during the Asr prayer today and I didn’t respond by saying yarhamuki Allah. She was so upset and that she had to take me to another room to address the issue privately 😂 🤣
A brother who prays with us at the masjid and his two sons were hit by a motorbike as they were crossing the road to enter the masjid for Salah Al-Isha. The 4 yr old son has passed away, and the other son and father have been taken by air ambulance. Pray for them 🤲🏽
“If you have suffered a blow, they too have suffered one like it. And these days [of varying conditions] We alternate among the people so that Allāh may make evident those who believe and choose martyrs from among you, and Allāh does not like the wrongdoers.”

Informed my daughter earlier today that Ramadan is coming to an end and she was visibly upset 🥺 . I pray Allah blesses us all with many more years of Ramadan in good health, safety and security. Aameen 🤲🏽.
Just received the news that brother Essa passed away in his sleep last night and was found by his wife. This morning his daughter will wake up without her father present. His last post on snapchat was 10hrs ago and it was a picture of his daughter. Life is really short.
Brother Theo accepted Islam during our first few minutes in this blessed month of Ramadan. A beautiful start and pray my lord protects him ❤️
#ramadanmubarak
We’ve been witnessing so many youngsters accepting Islam in our local community recently. Our brother Timothy accepted Islam yesterday with
@AbuTaymiyyahMJ
Alhamdulilah ☝🏽
We have made it to another day 🤲🏽. Let’s start our day by asking our Lord for three things:
1. Beneficial knowledge
2. Good lawful income
3. Deeds that are accepted
Some of you may have seen the video which is being shared of Ustadh Abu Taymiyyah praying behind our local Imam. I was with
@AbuTaymiyyahMJ
that night, and he went from praying 23 rakahs of Taraweeh, then left to lead tahajjud in east london. He was tired and extremely exhausted.
A beautiful supplication last night by Imam Issa at my local masjid.
“O Allah who rescued Musa from Fir’awn, Yunus from the whale, Ibrahim from the fire, Muhammad from the Ahzaab; rescue our brothers and sisters in Palestine 🤲🏽.”

Ibn Abbas radiyaAllahu ‘anhu once said,
“Whoever increases in seeking forgiveness, Allah will grant such a person relief from every distress, a way out of every hardship and provide for that person in ways he/she can never imagine.”

Tomorrow is the Day of Arafah. It is the day wherein Allah revealed the tremendous verse in the Quran, "Today, I have completed this religion for you, and perfected My favors upon you, and chosen Islam as you way of life" [Mā'idah; 3]

Dua to make on Laylatul Qadr:
Allāhumma innāka ʿafūwwun tuḥibbul ʿafwa fa-ʿfu ʿannī
“O Allah, You are the Forgiver, and You love forgiveness, so forgive me.”
I am often commended for the way I have cultivated my daughter, but people often forget that it’s the mother who deserves praise. She’s her first teacher, school and role model. Any good you see in my daughter it’s from her mother. May Allah preserve our mothers🤲🏽
O Allah who rescued Musa from Fir’awn, Yunus from the whale, Ibrahim from the fire, Muhammad ﷺ from Al-Ahzab; rescue our brothers and sisters in Gaza Yaa rabb 🤲🏽

Sadly today it seems Muslim Twitter (brothers) are unable to go a day without arguing or commenting on affairs related to women. Al-Aḥnaf b. Qays (may Allah have mercy upon him) used to say:
جنبوا مجالسنا ذكر النساء
“Protect our gatherings from constantly mentioning women.”
Meeting Sheikh Haitham Al-Dukhin has truly been the best part of our trip. May Allah allow us to reach Ramadan in a good state of health and well-being, aameen🤲🏽

A wise man once said,
وعيناك إن أبدت إليك معايباً
فدعها وقل يا عين للناس أعين
And when your eyes fall upon the faults of others,
Turn away, and say to your eyes, “O eyes, others have eyes too.”
At my graduation ceremony today, a priest came up to the stage to say a prayer, and I could hear my mother quietly uttering the shahadah over and over again 😂. May Allah protect and preserve our mothers from any harm, aameen.

Very sad to hear that brother Ismael Beaumont from Maysoor Arabic
@MaysoorArabic
passed away today.
May Allah forgive him and have mercy upon him. Sad day walah 💔
Brother
@AliNassman
was killed today by the Israelis 💔💔💔
His pinned tweet:
“My friends, have good thoughts of Allah and His mercy. If I depart from you, we shall either meet in Al-Quds or in Jannah.”
May Allah have mercy upon him, aameen 🤲🏽.
A wise man once said,
ورزقكَ ليس يُنقصُهُ التَأَنّي
“And your rizq will not decrease though late it may arrive.
وليس يَزيدُ في الرزق العَناءُ
And it will not increase though one may slave and strive.”
And there is no creature on earth except upon Allah is its provision.
After reviewing my daughter’s Ramadan activity folder, I came across this heartwarming request….😭👇🏽
اللهم إنها قطعة من روحي وجزء من قلبي فأوصيك بها خيراً
O Allah aid and protect our brothers & sisters in Palestine, and ease their pain and suffering 🤲🏽
Stop oversharing your future plans and start concealing.
Imam Al-Shaafi’ said,
“If your own chest is too narrow to conceal your own secret, then the chest of the one whom you entrust is even more constricted!”

فصدر الذي يستودعُ السر أضيقُ

The Imam recited Surah Hud last night during taraweeh. I'm always deeply moved by the interaction between Prophet Nuh and his disobedient son — a situation familiar to many parents.
A significant lesson we can draw from their exchange is the realisation that even the Prophets,
وَمَا كَانَ رَبُّكَ نَسِيًّا
“And your lord is not one who forgets”
A verse which addresses both the oppressor and the oppressed.
A warning for the oppressor, and glad tidings for the oppressed that Allah is fully aware of your circumstances.
“Aabo macaan” is definitely a cheat code for my daughter to get anything. I don’t think I’ve ever said no whenever she’s used those two words together 😭😭
Dear fathers,
Advice from one father to another:
1. Teach your children from a young age that some body-parts are PRIVATE. No one is permitted to touch or look at them and they have every right to say NO. THREAD.
A wise man once said,
من تدخل فيما لا يعنيه وجد مالا يرضيه
"Whoever interferes in that which doesn't concern them, shall find that which doesn't please them."
Focus on your own growth and become more acquainted with yourself.
Love your child and never compare him/her to other children. Each and every child is unique and beautiful in their own way. This is from the great divine wisdom of our Lord. May Allah bless all of our children.
Job done Alhamdulilah! ✅
Eid Mubarak my Brothers & Sisters 🎉🎉
May Allah allow us to all observe another Ramadan in a state of eeman & good health, aameen 🤲🏽
تقبل الله منا و منكم صالح الأعمال

May Allah protect us, our loved ones and rectify our affairs.
A wise elderly man once said,

“If only youth could return to me for one day, and I could complain and tell it what old age has done to me.”

7 steps on how to deal with a bad dream:
1. Know that the dream is from Shaytaan
2. Seek refuge in Allah from the evil of what you witnessed and say, “اللهم اني أعوذ بك من شر ما رأيت
3. Do not inform anyone about the bad dream
4. Spit dryly to the left

A wise poet once said,
بِقَدرِ الكدِّ تُكتَسَبُ المَعالي
According to the effort you put in will ultimately determine how far you make it.
وَمَن طَلبَ العُلا سَهرَ اللَّيالي
And whoever desires to reach the top will surely have sleepless nights.

Just been informed that Shaykh AbdurRahman Mohiyudeen from Madinah passed away earlier today.
May Allah forgive him and have mercy upon him. May Allah also have mercy upon Sh Ubayd who passed away recently. The scholars are going one by one 💔
Dear fathers,
Be mindful of the way you choose to discipline your child. Putting fear into your child will not stop their bad behaviour. It just means that they are less likely to tell you that they have done something wrong. [1/2]

Shaykh Saalih Al-Luhaydaan has passed away at the age of 90
May Allah have mercy upon him and enter him into Jannah, aameen 🤲🏽
I first met the shaykh in Riyadh in 2017 when he was teaching Adaab Al-Mashi Ila Salah.
لا تفرح بسقوط غيرك فإنك لا تدري ما تضمر لك الأيام
Never rejoice at the downfall of others, for verily you do not know what the future holds for you.
Supplicate for steadfastness for indeed no one is guaranteed safety.

Tonight is the 27th Night of Ramadan. Ibn Hajr (rahimahuAllah) says:

Whenever you find in life someone plotting against you, remember this famous Arabic proverb:
"من حفر حفرة لأخيه وقع فيها"
“Whoever digs a pit for his brother/sister will surely fall into it himself”
Dua for when strong wind blows:
“Allaahumma ‘innee ‘as’aluka khayrahaa, wa khayra mafeeha, wa khayra ma ‘ursilat bihi wa a’oodhu bika min sharrihaa, wa sharri mafeeha, wa sharri maa ‘ursilat bihi”.

You cannot undo the early childhood trauma you experienced growing up. Whether it be neglect, emotional and psychological abuse.
But as father/mother, you have been given the opportunity to do it differently, to do it better, to do it right.
