***Thread - The current state of Ummah***
We muslims and the muslims scholars always say - the Quran is the final, complete, universal and incorruptible word of god (which is true), but why is it that our "islamic governments" fail to enforce laws based on the Qur'an...

 A few days back, fornication was legalised in the UAE (which is strictly prohibited in the Qur'an)
And with saudi Arabia's suspicious activity with Israeli officials, we as an ummah are bound to ask ourselves few questions
What led to this?
Who is responsible?
What are we doing?
Does the majority of our ummah even want to do something about it?
What can be done?
Who can do it?
Q1 - what led to this?
This question has answers we all know, but we turn a blind eye towards it.
After the fall of the Ottoman Islamic khilafath we can safely say that it's secularism (Ataturk) which responsible for it...
...And that's ironic, as muslims who live in secular states vouch for the secularism mentioned in those states' constitution for the protection of their rights...
Q2 - who is responsible?
The larger part of this question's answer is "we our selves are responsible", but lets see who really are responsible for this.
After the WW2, this world saw unprecedented changes, which involved forming of athiestic states in the Muslim world...
(yes , a secular state is an athiestic state)
Here is a picture to potray what I am referring to
And the reason this happened is either colonialism or the involvement of colonialist in muslim states
The gross inferiority complex they inculcated in the people is embarrassing.
Q3 - What are we doing about this?
The simple answer could be "nothing"
But let's dive deep
The country which holds the highest amount of muslims is now probably India (yes, its quite possible based on the growth rate and all), and the state of muslims there can tell enough...
It's sad to see that muslims there are turning towards liberal organisations for their protection and the protection of their rights
And with the advent of UCC (a law which can mean that muslims cannot practice the laws mentioned in the Qur'an (law of marriage, divorce, property)
...We could say that our ummah isn't paying attention ot our collective health.
The Muslims in Rohingya, Uighur, Kashmir, Palastine, Syria, Iraq (and more) are helpless even when a quarter of the population of this world is muslims
Why?...
And Let me point out the eery connection between the rise of secularism and the fall of this ummah.
Q4 - Does the majority of our ummah even want to do something about it?
The answer is simple
The majority of the ummah is the victim in this case ( and the minority with the power are the lapdogs of seculars states )
Q5 - What can be done?
We could just sit in our homes and tweet about this stuff, we have no leader, no reliable government nothing!
What we can do is introduce a system with which our generation and the following generation has respect for the scholars of islam...
... and would want them to be their role models
The scholars of islam should be in the places of uncorrupted power and should lead the ummah
Is this possible?
Yes it is, if we start with the Muslim states
The lack of intelligent people for muslim scholarship gives rise to...
...liberal or 'modern' islamic scholars, which are causing real fitnah
Q6 - who can do it?
It could be done right at our homes, send your children to madrasas (most muslims do not send children to madrasas as they find the quality of education there very low)
Build madrasas with education centred around islam, (if this is done in the real sense...
... then the quality of education would improve automatically, as islam is the most perfect religion, way of life, political system and socio economic system)
So that's my view!
I ask for forgiveness if I have stated something incorrect
Jazakallahukhairan

How Islam spread to Sylhet (Northeastern Bangladesh) 🧵

Shaykh al-Mashāʾikh Makhdūm Shaykh Jalāl Mujarrad bin Muḥammad Kunyāī better known as Hazrat Shah Jalal was one of the most famous scholars and preachers to have disseminated Islam throughout Bengal. He was born in Kunyia (today known as Konya, in present-day Turkey) in 1271.

His mother, Syeda Haseenah Fatimah, and his father, Mahmud ibn Muhammad ibn Ibrahim, were descendants of the Quraysh tribe in Makkah. Having lost both his father and mother very early on in life, young Shah Jalal was raised and
educated by his maternal uncle

Sayyid Ahmad Kabir Suhrawardi, who was a prominent Muslim scholar and practitioner of Sufism. Jalal was an adherent of the Yisiwiyyah Sufi order, which was an offshoot of the famous Naqshbandiyyah tariqah.

Being a gifted student, Jalal soon committed the entire Qur’an to memory and became familiar with the traditional Islamic sciences, thus acquiring proficiency in Arabic grammar, Qur’anic exegesis (tafsir), Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh),Prophetic traditions (hadith) and tasawwuf.

What is #Tawheed?
What are the Categories of Tawhid?

Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Let the first thing to which you will invite them, be the Tawhid of Allah."
(Sahih al Bukhari 7372)


#Tawheed is to single out Allah in his Actions, in His Attributes, and to single out Allah in our actions/worship towards Him (His Rights).

🔹1 - Tawheed ar Rububiyyah
(maintaining unity in Allah's actions, the divine Lordship of Allah)


He alone is the Creator & Sustainer, and controller of the universe (etc).. and not attributing any of this to anyone else

🔹2 - Tawheed al Ibaadah(Uluhiyyah)
(maintaining the unity of worship)
This means to single out Allah as the focus of all worship (‘ibaadah).


Allah alone has the right to be supplicated to & prayed to, and sacrificed for and worshiped... directly, and without any intermediaries.
A person can believe in Allah(One God) and still be committing #SHIRK (polytheist)


Allah says.. 👉 “And if you were to ask them: ‘Who has created the heavens and the earth and subjected the sun and the moon?’ they will surely reply: ‘Allah.’ How then are they deviating (as polytheists and disbelievers)?” - [Quran 29:61]

If ever any man had the right to say that he ruled by a Right Divine,it was Mohammad ﷺ for he had all the power without instruments & without its support.He cared not for dressing of power.The simplicity of his private life was in keeping with his public life."

My choice of Muhammad to lead the list of the world's most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others, but he was the ONLY man in history who was supremely successful on both the religious and secular level.

[Thread: Wife Beating & Islam]
Opinions of famous classical Muslim scholars.

Imam Al-Desouki:
If the wife claims she has been beaten in transgression and the husband claims otherwise, then the wife is to be believed and the husband is to be reprehended (rebuked, …) by the judge


Imam Al-Desouki:
And if proof for transgression is shown and the wife wants to remain with him, then the judge is to beat the husband.


Imam Al-Desouki:
If the husband believes that his wife will not stop rebelling except by beating, then he’s not allowed to beat her.

Ibn Hajar Al Haithami:
If a husband knows that beating isn't helpful, then it becomes haram.

Al-Shafi‘i:
Beating is allowed, but avoiding it is better.

Maliki opinion:
Beating is allowed ONLY if it delivers the benefit intended from it. If it doesn't, then it's haram.


Ibn Hazm:
A wife has the right to divorce herself and right to retribution (or retaliation) if her husband beats her violently.

He is not allowed to beat his wife violently even if he knows she won’t stop rebelling by no other means and...

This has to be said.

Classical Muslim scholars and jurists have categorized friendship with NON-MUSLIM into four levels and stages

1) Muwalat or Mawadda: This means to have close and intimate relationship and deep love and affection from one’s heart for a non-Muslim such that

it makes a Muslim unmindful of his faith.

This Mawadda is reserved only for Muslims; hence it is not permitted for a Muslim to have this type of friendship with non-Muslims. The verses of the Qur’an prohibiting Muslims from having intimate and close friendship with non-Muslims,

especially the first verse of Surah al-Mumtahina, is regarding this kind of relationship.

2) Mudarat: This means to express friendship and love only outwardly without having love for them and their beliefs internally. It is a mere outward expression of the first stage (muwalat),

hence it entails being pleasant, friendly, polite and kind towards non-Muslims. It involves expressing good manners, courtesy and good behavior towards fellow human beings.
This kind of relationship with non-Muslims is permitted, as it is reserved for all human beings, whether

Muslim or non-Muslim. This becomes even more important when the objective is to safeguard one’s self from potential harm, invite them towards Islam or when they are one’s guests. The verse of the Qur’an where Allah says “unless you [do so] as a protective measure [in order to]

THREAD: 15 of the most useful razors and rules I've found.

Rules of thumb that simplify decisions.

Bezos' Razors:

• If unsure what action to take, let your 80-year-old self make it.

• If unsure who to work with, pick the person that has the best chances of breaking you out of a 3rd world prison.

Skinner's Law:

• If procrastinating on an item, you only have 2 options:

1. Make the pain of not doing it greater than the pain of doing it.

2. Make the pleasure of doing it greater than the pleasure of not doing it.

Luck Razor:

• If stuck with 2 equal options, pick the one that feels like it will produce the most luck later down the line.

I used this razor to go for drinks with a stranger rather than watch Netflix.

In hindsight, it was the highest ROI decision I've ever made.

Bragging Razor:

• If someone brags about their success or happiness, assume it’s half what they claim.

• If someone downplays their success or happiness, assume it’s double what they claim.

Remember: Just because an idea is old doesn't mean it's good.

Knowing whether old ideas are more likely to be good requires understanding whether conditions have changed in important ways.

Horse archery was an amazing method of warfare for over a thousand years...then people invented guns, and suddenly this great idea that had stood the test of time became obsolete.

Then again, when underlying conditions don't change much, tried-and-true approaches are probably better.

"Learning the lessons of history" usually just means assuming ergodicity and stationarity in an informal time-series model...

1. Let's talk about the effects of #climatechange on the world's forests, with a focus on the northwest of Canada. This is also about electoral #greenwash, and my duty as public servant and right as private Canadian citizen to speak freely about what I know.

2. Why am I compelled to speak? How am I free to speak? The answer is in the federal Values and Ethics Code of Coduct (VECC).


3. It can be career-limiting to criticize government policy when you work for government. Duty of Loyalty is very, very important. However, as VECC makes clear, it is not absolute. In fact SCoC has ruled twice in favour of citizen free speech as a higher ideal. In 1985 and 2001.

4. I am therefore perfectly comfortable showing you the scary things that are happening in the North under a warming climate. A failure to meet global GHG emissions targets is hurting Canada's forests in a way we used to think wouldn't happen for decades.

5. Warming temperatures and rising [CO2] could, in theory, help green the planet with more vigorous tree growth. But that's not what's happening. Don't believe the #greenwash. The positive effects are over and it is warm enough that we are now starting the into the negative.

I think I'm giving up on mainstream marketing content.

I'm giving up on social media consumption too.

So little substance.

Need to devote more time doing. More time creating.

Who needs another "5 ways to boost growth" post? I click and am disappointed every time. Not again.

I don't want to poop on content marketing, but marketers need to step it up.

Or at least, founders need to know that doing something is not always better than doing nothing.

Why is content marketing not as effective as it used to be? An innumerable amount of factors...

But one things for damn sure.

Things have to change.

Two of the chief sins:
1. Unoriginal research/story/study/etc
2. Not having anything more to add that's meaningful

Why blog/podcast/vlog/etc about something that's already been said? Already been done?

Do we really need another interview with founder of x hot startup? Do we really need another ultimate guide about facebook ads?

Not all content is like this...

Sometimes, you get an occasional piece that truly leaves you better off than you were before. That doesn't make you want to skim.

An original case study. A first time interview with a founder. An honest account of an experiment. An explanation of a change, shift, or realization.
