Entering the middle of Ramadan, many people confront what might be called monotonous routinisation.
The early Ramadan "excitement" fades. You are just going through the motions. The mind wanders in prayer. Worship seems dull. You slow down.
Here is some advice:

How much Quran have you read since Ramadan ended?
Are you still waking up for Fajr?
Have you been to the mosque since the Eid prayer?
Do you still have a routine of qiyam al-layl?

Two periods in Ramadan in which the nafs prods a person to slow down:
- the middle of Ramadan after the initial spike
- after the 27th night, the pinnacle
We’ve passed the 27th. Do not become lazy. Your moment of acceptance with Allah might be written in the final days.

Be confident and clear when speaking about Palestine. There's no reason to cower, be on the back foot, or speak in the language of "both sides".

You'll prob. find among the 49 martyrs those we typically view as the "Friday Muslim", the uncle, the aunty, the run-of-the-mill Muslim.
What is their rank now with God? What was the deed they did that made God enlist them with the martyrs? Where do they stand in your eyes now?

Can I pray Eid at home?
This is the answer I provided last week: According to the Hanafi school, the Eid prayer cannot be performed in the home. If one misses the Eid prayer with one's local congregation, he performs salat al-duha instead. (Ibn Abidin, Radd al-Muhtar, 2:175-76)

If you're working all day in Ramadan, do the following: when leaving for work say, "God, I am going to work while fasting in order to support my family, to be able to assist the poor/needy, & with the intention of following the sunna of your prophets who worked for their rizq."

I fully stand with my brother, Dr. Omar Suleiman, against this despicable smear by the most hated man in congress.
Dr. Suleiman has honourably stood up for innocent Palestinian men, women, children - regardless of their religion - who have been subject to decades of oppression.
Colin Allred embraced & welcomed this antisemite cleric to the House.
Today, he’s accusing BOTH Israel and America of “genocide”? That is utterly false and a blood libel.
Does Allred agree?

I'm in the beginning of my career.
If no university hires me for my remarks on Palestine, so be it. I won't stop. I'll get a license to be a construction worker or something & work to earn the provision that Allah has written for me.
A small sacrifice. Allah takes care of all.
I’m an academic that lost job opportunities & colleagues because I spoke out for Palestine. My rule of thumb is if people don’t want you due to their moral ambiguity then you’re better off without them. Do the principled best you can in any situation & minimise later life regrets

This is a stark reminder: the state of Israel isn’t simply at war with Hamas but at war with Palestine - Palestinian men, women and children, Palestinian Muslims and Christians, Palestinian young and old.
All of Palestine.
Dear world,
Israel just bombed a Christian hospital in Gaza and murdered over 500 Palestinian civilians. White phosphorus chemical bombs confirmed by human rights watch was not enough to open your eyes. Over 1000 dead children wasn’t enough. Will you open your eyes and act now?

For fasting to have the desired effect of disciplining the nafs & weakening its worldly desires, these three adab are needed:
1. Stay awake while you are fasting & actually experience the pangs of hunger/thirst
2. Do not eat excessively during sahur and iftar
3. Do not complain

1/3rd into Ramadan, there are two "risks" to your current ibada: (i) going into decline, or (ii) monotonous routinisation.

Forcing your nafs to do things it dislikes is a way of disciplining it. The more you discipline it, the easier it becomes to demand good deeds from it.

A sign that a person has more attachment to the world than to Allah is that he feels burdened when commencing prayer and relief when ending it.
Someone who is attached to Allah cannot get enough of prayer. He is eager to commence it, feels relief in it, & is saddened to end it.

This is just ignorance.
Anyone who has even a cursory understanding of Deobandis & Wahabis will know they are very different.
Deobandis are not "diverging sharply" from Sunnism. They are Hanafi, Maturidi, & serious proponent of Sufism. That places them squarely within Sunnism.
An excellent thread on the Deobandi religious strand, to which the Taliban subscribe. Remarkable how 2 ideologies, Deobandi and Wahhabi, came to life almost at the same time in totally different areas but are so similar to each other yet diverging sharply from mainstream Sunnism.

This answer by Mufti Muhammad ibn Adam confirms the original opinion I preferred (namely, that Eid cannot be performed in normal homes) and also the statement below that there *is* scope to allow Eid at home in congregation even in the Hanafi School.
Perfectly fine.
If it makes one feel better, there are ways of reading the Hanafi school that would potentially allow Eid at home (congregation is a condition) especially in the current context, but I personally and strongly favor the other view for a variety of reasons.

If you believe the religion operates like a lottery where you need to get lucky with the right moment to win the ultimate prize of Allah's mercy & acceptance, the "automate your charity/worship to guarantee X" model makes sense.
But Allah and His religion are greater than this

A gentle correction: as our teachers taught us, the striking or imposition of the hand on the chest or back is a Prophetic gesture associated with driving away evil influence (waswās) & conferring blessing.
There are numerous reports in this regard.
Good information in this that shows the balance of the Prophet ﷺ in his dealing with his wives, very different from what Compassionate Imams and feminist shaykhaz preach in their distorted, feminist, women-worshipping version of Islam.

The apartheid state led by this war criminal has:
- Destroyed every university in Gaza
- Killed over 100 university professors
- Damaged or destroyed 90% of schools
- Killed over 5000 students
- Killed over 250 teachers
- Brought schooling to a close for 600,000 Palestinians.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:
"What’s happening in America’s college campuses is horrific. Antisemitic mobs have taken over leading universities. They call for the annihilation of Israel. They attack Jewish students. They attack Jewish faculty.

At the end of the day, this is your battle with your nafs. We must push through just like we push through with so many othe things even if the "feeling" is absent. We worship because Allah deserves it, not for spiritual highs. And remember that death can strike at any moment.

Other schools also have opinions permitting performing Eid at home. Given the current situation, one may choose to follow this view in order to maintain the performance of Eid and make it a day of joyous celebration and worship for one's family.

The moment we are in right now has an element of takhwif - God causing fear in people.
But remember what Abu'l Qasim al-Hakim said: "The one who is afraid of something runs away from it, whereas the one who fears God runs to Him.”
He wants you to run to Him.

So Christians only break their silence when Christians are killed?
Do you know Palestinian Christians have been subjugated for as long as Palestine has?
Do you know 80% of them fear attacks from Jewish settlers & 60% believe Israel aims to expel Christians from their homeland?
Well said, Charlie. I have been disgusted by the propagandists pretending a Christian church was not bombed.
Christians were killed.
No Christian should stay silent.

The experience of the Prophet ﷺ at Ta'if is one of the most profound moments in the entire sira for me. Brimming with lessons.
I was thinking today: the Prophet ﷺ is not described as angry or resentful after the ill treatment he received from the people of Ta'if.

How many times have we heard of someone afflicted with COVID-19 and said, "Allah, I am grateful for the well-being you have given me"?
Then ask that for every adversity people around us face.
Allah have mercy on us.

The Shafi`i school permits Eid prayer at home (individually or as part of a congregation) because they deem the Eid prayer as similar to any other nafl prayer. For the precise method of performing it, one should consult a Shafi`i scholar. (al-Nawawi, Rawdat al-talibin, 1:578)
