Don't Hasten to Seek Revenge Al-'Allāmah Ibn Al-Qayyim, may Allah have mercy on him, said: «وإن العبد ليشتد فرحه يوم القيامة بما له قبل الناس من الحقوق في المال والنفس والعرض. فالعاقل يعد هذا ذخرا ليوم الفقر والفاقة، ولا يبطله بالانتقام الذي لا يجدي عليه شيئا». "Certainly, the servant will rejoice immensely on the Day of Judgment over the rights owed to him by others in terms of wealth, life, and honor. So, the wise person considers this a reserve for the day of poverty and need (Day of Judgement), and does not nullify it by seeking revenge (in this Dunya), which will not benefit him in any way." [Madarij As-Sālikeen (1/306)]

Comparison is the thief of joy

Meaning: measuring your life, accomplishments, or possessions against others diminishes happiness and creates inadequacy. This mindset fosters envy, anxiety, and discontent, stealing satisfaction from personal progress. This is generally true, however, comparison is praiseworthy in two situations: 1⃣. When you look at people who have less in worldly matters, it helps you feel more thankful for what Allah has given you. This why the Prophet ﷺ said: ((انظروا إلى من هو أسفل منكم؛ ولا تنظروا إلى من فوقكم؛ فهو أجدر ألا تزدروا نعمة الله)) “Look at those who are below you and do not look at those above you, so that you do not underestimate Allah’s blessings.” [Agreed upon] 2⃣. When you look at people who are better than you in religious practice, it will motivate you to work harder and improve your own faith and deeds. https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbCSKCQCXC3Nv5OYUQ2q

What drives your social media activity? 1⃣. Commanding Good & Countering Falsehood is a Necessary Duty Sheikh Ibn Baz rahimahullah said: «يجب ان تحرص على نشر العلم بكل نشاط وقوة وألا يكون أهل الباطل أنشط في باطلهم وان تحرص على نفع المسلمين في دينهم ودنياهم». "It is necessary to spread knowledge with full energy and strength, ensuring that the people of falsehood are not more active in their falsehood than you are in the truth. You must also strive to benefit the Muslims in both their religious and worldly affairs." [Majmu' Al-Fataawa (6/67)] 2⃣. Best Form of Generosity Ibn Al-Qayyim rahimahullah said: «الجود بالعلم وبذله وهو من أعلى مراتب الجود ، والجود به أفضل من الجود بالمال لأن العلم أشرف من المال» "Generosity in sharing knowledge is among the highest levels of generosity, and being generous with knowledge is superior to being generous with wealth, for knowledge is more noble than wealth." [Madarij As-Salikeen (2/281)] 3⃣. Sadaqah Jariyah Ibn Al-Jawzi rahimahullah said: «من أحب أن ﻻ ينقطع عمله بعد موته فلينشر العلم» "Whoever desires that their deeds do not cease after their death should spread knowledge." [At-Tadhkirah 55]

Inspiration and Guidance When establishing Da'wah in new territories—especially where people aren’t familiar with or may be against Salafiyyah—alongside Aqeedah and Fiqh, prioritising Tajweed and Arabic is a good way to connect with people and build acceptance. Remember, a Salafi Tajweed/Arabic doesn't just teach these subjects, he utilises every given opportunity to command good, forbid evil and correct misconceptions.

Why do you think the original Madrasatuna channel was so successful? Response: I believe—and Allah knows best—that it’s because the channel was founded upon Tawheed from the very outset. On the 27th of Rajab 1441H (23/03/2020), we started memorising the Lāmiyyah of Shaykh Al-Islām on “https://t.me/MarkazUthman/970.” Then, two days later—on the 29th of Rajab 1441H (25/03/2020)—“Madrasatuna” was founded, the classes were transferred over, and from there, the rest is history. This is in line with Allah’s promise: {وَعَدَ ٱللهُ ٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا۟ مِنكُمْ وَعَمِلُوا۟ ٱلصَّـٰلِحَـٰتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُمْ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ كَمَا ٱسْتَخْلَفَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِينَهُمُ ٱلَّذِي ٱرْتَضَىٰ لَهُمْ وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّهُم مِّنۢ بَعْدِ خَوْفِهِمْ أَمْنًاۚ يَعْبُدُونَنِي لَا يُشْرِكُونَ بِي شَيْـًٔاۚ وَمَن كَفَرَ بَعْدَ ذَٰلِكَ فَأُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْفَـٰسِقُونَ} “Allāh has promised those among you who believe and do righteous deeds that He will surely grant them succession on the earth, as He granted it to those before them; and that He will firmly establish for them their religion which He has chosen for them; and that He will replace their fear with security—[so long as] they worship Me alone and do not associate anything with Me. But whoever disbelieves after that, then they are the defiantly disobedient.” [Surah An-Nūr: 55] Reflection: If you want success in your da‘wah, call to Tawheed and the Sunnah, enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong. If you do that, then you are truly successful—even if you have no followers. Basing success on followers is a flawed standard! A Prophet will come on the Day of Judgement with only one or two followers, and another will come with none at all. Who would dare to say that such Prophets were unsuccessful in their Da'wah?

Sharing Beneficial Knowledge A conversation took place in the mataf—the area where people perform tawaf. It was between a brother and one of the workers who offer a wheelchair service. As is known, these workers are paid to assist people—especially the elderly and those with special needs—by taking them around the Haram to complete their 'Umrah. The brother said to the worker, “I believe you have one of the best jobs in the Haram.” He repeated, “I truly think you have one of the best jobs here.” The worker replied, “Why?” The brother said, “You tell me—what do you think?” He answered, “Because my work is completely halal.” The brother responded, “There are many others here whose work is also halal. That’s not the reason.” So the worker said, “Alright then, tell me.” The brother explained, “I believe your job is one of the best because—if your intention is right—you can combine the good of this dunya and the good of the akhirah.” The worker asked, “How is that?” He said, “When you take someone in your wheelchair and go around for tawaf, if you intend that you yourself are also performing tawaf with every trip, then you gain the reward of tawaf. At the same time, you receive your payment for the service you provide. So you bring together the goodness of this world—earning a halal income—and the goodness of the next life—performing multiple tawafs each day.” The worker was amazed and said, “SubhanAllah, you’ve taught me something I didn’t realise before. JazakAllahu khayran.” Knowing that there are many of these workers who wait near the mataf and the mas‘a area for people needing assistance, he encouraged him, saying, “Spread this knowledge with the rest of the workers, because whoever guides others to good receives the same reward.” So imagine: this brother shares the advice, and others begin acting upon it—day after day, perhaps for years. Each time they make tawaf with the intention, and even pray the two rak‘ahs afterward, the one who first gave that advice continues to receive the reward—perhaps while he is at home, resting on his bed. This is why we should make an effort to seek beneficial knowledge and pass it on to others.

One of the Best Condolence Messages Ibn Al-Qayyim rahimahullah mentions in Al-Fawa'id: "فتأمل حال الجنين يأتيه غذاؤه، وهو الدم، من طريق واحدة وهو السرة. فلما خرج من بطن الأم وانقطعت تلك الطريق فتح له طريقين اثنين، وأجرى له فيهما رزقاً أطيب وألذ من الأول لبناً خالصاً سائغاً. فإذا تمت مدة الرضاع، وانقطعت الطريقان بالفطام، فتح طرقاً أربعة أكمل منها: طعامان وشرابان، فالطعامان من الحيوان والنبات، والشرابان من المياه والألبان، وما يضاف إليهما من المنافع والملاذ. فإذا مات انقطعت عنه هذه الطرق الأربعة لكنه - سبحانه - فتح له- إن كان سعيداً - طرقاً ثمانية، وهى أبواب الجنة الثمانية، يدخل من أيها شاء. فهكذا الرب سبحانه لا يمنع عبده المؤمن شيئاً من الدنيا إلا ويؤتيه أفضل منه وأنفع له. وليس ذلك لغير المؤمن، فإنه يمنعه الحظ الأدنى الخسيس ولا يرضى له به؛ ليعطيه الحظ الأعلى النفيس. Reflect on the state of the fetus: its nourishment comes to it in the form of blood, through a single route — the umbilical cord. When it leaves its mother’s womb and that route is cut off, Allah opens for it two new routes, and provides it with something better and more pleasant than before: pure, wholesome milk that is easy to drink. When the period of breastfeeding ends and these two routes are cut off through weaning, He opens four routes for it, more complete than before: two types of food and two types of drink. The foods come from animals and plants, and the drinks come from water and milk, along with all the benefits and enjoyments that accompany them. When a person dies, these four routes are cut off. But if he is among the blessed, Allah opens for him eight routes — the eight gates of Paradise — and he may enter through whichever of them he wishes. In this way, Allah, the Most High, does not withhold anything from His believing servant in this world except that He gives him something better and more beneficial in its place. This is only for the believer. He withholds from him the lower, insignificant share and is not pleased with it for him, so that He may grant him the higher, more precious share.
