Yet wider society wants to paint a picture that Islam is harsh towards Muslim women and promotes misogynist attitudes. Quite the opposite for those who really want to know what Islam says about how men treat women. It is no surprise that in the last 15 years, out of the 110,000 plus converts to Islam, majority are women. Equality between sexes has simply became a paper exercise in modern Britain today that manifests itself in an ugly manner in day to day life.

“And indeed, for you in grazing livestock is a lesson. We give you drink from what is in their bellies - between excretion and blood - pure milk, palatable to drinkers”. Surah Nahl- Verse 66 #ramadan #ramadhan #ramadan2018 #instaphoto #instagramers #instaramadan #instapic #instagram #instagood
“And with Him are the keys of the unseen; none knows them except Him. And He knows what is on the land and in the sea. Not a leaf falls but that He knows it. And no grain is there within the darknesses of the earth and no moist or dry [thing] but that it is [written] in a clear record”. Surah An-aam, Verse 59. #ramadhan #ramadan #instaphoto #instaramadan #instagramers #instagood #instalike #success #key
“Say, ‘If the sea were ink for [writing] the words of my Lord, the sea would be exhausted before the words of my Lord were exhausted, even if We brought the like of it as a supplement.’” Surah Al-Kahf- Verse 109 #ramadan #ramadhan #instaphoto #instapic #instagramers #instagram #instaphoto #instagood
“Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The example of His light is like a niche within which is a lamp, the lamp is within glass, the glass as if it were a pearly [white] star lit from [the oil of] a blessed olive tree, neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil would almost glow even if untouched by fire. Light upon light. Allah guides to His light whom He wills. And Allah presents examples for the people, and Allah is Knowing of all things”. Surah Nur- Verse 35 #ramadan #ramadan2018 #ramadhan #instaramadan #instaphoto #instagramers
Jabir reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him said: “None of you will enter Paradise because of his good deeds alone. None would be rescued from the Hellfire, not even myself, except for the mercy of Allah”.(Muslim)
A’ishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to strive more in worship during Ramadan than he strove in any other time of the year; and he would devote himself more (in the worship of Allah) in the last ten nights of Ramadan than he did in earlier part of the month. (Muslim).
Data of millions of Facebook users has been used in election campaigns. Initially authorised only for research purposes, the data was then used without Facebooks authorisation and consent to target voters by understanding their concerns, interests, political opinions; information generated through each users Facebook feeds. Facebook could do nothing about it! The social media giant may present itself as a new way for people to voice themselves through its platforms. But the reality is that Democracy is organised and reserved for the ruling elite and in the process people are used as pawns to achieve specific political objectives. Do you trust the Democratic way with all its flaws?
Two YouTubers, @ksi and @joeweller, took their rivalry to the next level culminating into a boxing match which was streamed LIVE on YouTube. Thousands watched at the venue with supporters from both sides and over 21 million tuned in to watch the stream on both contestants YouTube channels with boxing commentary from other YouTubers. YouTube has created a new class of youth, using modern technology to drive masses to venture their ideas on their platform. Dedicated ‘Followers’ tune into the regular Vlogs with amazement and excitement each week to watch episodes where each time the boundaries are taken to the next level. The story of the Pied Piper of Hamelin couldn’t be so apt for this era where masses are led blindly to trivial pursuits. Allah Ta’ala reminds us in the Quran of the problematic nature of blind following. In Surah Al-Anam, Allah Almighty says “If you follow the majority of people on the earth, they will lead you astray from the path of God, for they follow only conjecture and surmise”. Islam gave us a clear vision of the pursuits which we should tread on: remembering the goal of this life and warning us not to become sheep. #KSI #joeweller #youtubers #life #happiness #instagram #instagramers #islam #chase #world #akhirah
