  Introduction   Within the teachings of Islam, there's a beautiful balance to strike between passing judgment and offering advice. This balance is rooted in the idea that only Allah, the Ar-Rahmaan and Al-Muqsit (Ar-Rahmaan is the name of Allah which means the one who loves you most and provide you complete care and protection,  Al- Muqsit means the Almighty Who is fair and equitable in all His decisions and decrees, Who deals with everyone according to a system, has the ultimate authority to judge.) As Muslims, we're encouraged to approach the actions and intentions of others with gentleness and care. Imagine these teachings as a guiding light, drawn from the wisdom of the Quran, the stories of the Prophet in the Hadiths, and the insights of scholars like Ibn Kathir. Together, they help us understand this vital aspect of our faith. We'll also touch on the thoughts of other wise Muslim scholars along the way. Think of this journey as a path toward better understanding an...

  Hey everyone, let’s break down something super important in Islam that a lot of people get wrong: religious freedom. You might have heard rumors that Islam is forced on people, but that's totally not true. Let’s dive into this with some facts, relatable examples, and real talk. First up, the Quran straight-up says, “ There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion” (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:256). Basically, you can’t force anyone to become Muslim. Faith has to come from the heart, and it’s gotta be a genuine choice. Now, imagine this: someone decides to become Muslim. It's not just a casual thing. It’s a big deal, like taking an oath to follow Shariah – the divine laws of Islam. It’s about living life in sync with Islamic principles. And this isn’t just about saying you believe; it’s about walking the walk every day. Let’s talk about personal responsibility. In Islam, we believe that on Judgment Day, everyone will be accountable for their actions. The Quran says, “So...

In a world tainted with lust and objectification, the hijab stands as a shield, protecting the queens of Islam from the gaze of those who would diminish their worth. We, as Muslim women, are cherished and dignified by Allah Himself, and the hijab serves as a visible reminder of our inherent value and honor. Western media act like they’re all about freedom and choices, but when it’s a Muslim woman rocking her hijab or niqab, suddenly it’s like, “Oh no, poor thing, oppressed!” They don’t get it – hijabs and modest gear aren’t cheap! We choose this, and it’s our royalty, not some oppression story they keep spinning. They need to see their own hypocrisy when they shut down our choice to express our faith. For us, wearing the hijab or abaya isn’t about being judged by appearances. It’s our crown, showing we’re queens who aren’t for just anyone. Unlike those who let anyone in, we value ourselves for who we are, not how we look or our skin tone. Society loves to judge based on looks, especial...
