Argumentation (has) Levels, so choose your position

Not every argument is praiseworthy, nor is every silence commendable…

The best argument is that which is undertaken in support of the truth and to clarify obligations.

As for a good argument, it is one that revolves around recommended matters, showing the better of the less preferable, provided it is free from fanatism or obstinacy.


Allah says:

﴿وَجَادِلْهُم بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ﴾
“And argue with them in a way that is best.” Surah Ankabut 29:69)

As for an ugly argument, it is the fire of grudges, the seed of enmity, and the fuel of hatred. It is blameworthy and forbidden by the Sharee'ah.

Since abandoning it is difficult for souls accustomed to it, the Prophet ﷺ gave glad tidings to whoever refrains from it with this great promise:

"أَنَا زَعِيمُ بَيْتٍ فِي رُبْضِ الْجَنَّةِ لِمَنْ تَرَكَ الْمَرَاءَ وَإِنْ كَانَ مُحِقًّا"
“I guarantee a house in the outskirts of Paradise (fi rubd al-jannah) for one who leaves disputation, even if he is right." Abu Dawood transmitted it and Shaykh Al-Albani authenticated it in Silsilatu As-Sahihah

So let your argument be a path to the truth, a light for the heart, and avoid disputation that ignites grudges… for the best speech is that which guides to good and comforts the soul.

How much has wealth and job status become the measure for many when choosing a suitor, even if he does not do salah!

They have become heedless of religion and good character.

Yet whoever neglects the right of Allaah will neglect everything else.

The Prophet ﷺ emphasized the religion and character of the suitor,
for by them a righteous family is built, not by wealth or employment.

If you are deprived of manners, then cling to silence.

What Intention Can Do

وروى البخاري عن أنس بن مالك رضي الله عنه قال:
«إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم رَجَعَ مِنْ غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ، فَدَنَا مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ بِالْمَدِينَةِ أَقْوَامًا، مَا سِرْتُمْ مَسِيرًا، وَلَا قَطَعْتُمْ وَادِيًا إِلَّا كَانُوا مَعَكُمْ».
قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَهُمْ بِالْمَدِينَةِ؟
قَالَ: «وَهُمْ بِالْمَدِينَةِ، حَبَسَهُمُ الْعُذْرُ».
رواه البخاري (رقم: 4423).

Al-Bukhārī narrated from Anas ibn Mālik (رضي الله عنه ) that the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ, when he returned from the expedition of Tabūk and came near Madinah, said:
“Indeed, in Madinah there are people who, whenever you traveled or crossed a valley, they were with you.”
They said: “O Messenger of Allaah, while they are in Madinah?”
He said: “Yes, while they are in Madinah; excuse prevented them.”
Al-Bukhārī (4423) transmitted it.


قال الحافظ في الفتح (ج٦/ص: ٤٧):
وفيه أن المرء يبلغ بنيته أجر العامل إذا منعه العذر عن العمل. ا.ه‍.

Al-Ḥāfiẓ (Ibnu Ḥajar) said in Fat-ḥu Al-Bārī (vol. 6, p. 47):
“This shows that a person attains, by his intention, the reward of the one who acts, if a valid excuse prevents him from doing the deed.”

The Art of Dealing with the Harm of Words

If harm reaches you through speech, and you find in it some truth, then accept it, thank the one who gifted it to you, and do not concern yourself with whether his intention was good or otherwise, for wisdom is the lost property of the believer; he takes it wherever he finds it.

And if it is false, stripped of correctness, then investigate its source and fold it away gently, for perhaps it was born of misunderstanding or deficiency in perception.

Avoid the haste of responding; for if you stir barren words, their noise will only increase, but if you leave them, their effect will subside and their impact will fade.

Seek counsel from people of virtue. If they advise silence, then obey, for in silence there is dignity, and in following them there is salvation.

And if some of them rise to defend you, that is a beauty surpassing all adornment, and a light that spares you from every excuse.

Food, Clothing, and Marriage: All Are Qadar, But Not Equal.


بســـم اللــه الرحــمــن الـرحـــيــم

No doubt, marriage is qadar (predecree) just as food and clothing are qadar. However, we see how people treat these matters differently.

When it comes to food or clothing, you go to the market, you bargain, you choose and reject, you check and re-check.

Then, as for the food: in the kitchen, you carefully mix the recipe with precision, specific ingredients, specific timing.

Likewise with clothing: the tailor measures you with accuracy, and he must deliver it at an appointed time.

Yet these are things you will discard shortly, food becomes waste (faeces), clothing becomes rags.

سبحان الله!

If such ephemeral things require careful striving and planning and execution, how much more a matter like marriage? A union that can either bring a lifetime of bliss or misery in this world, and have weighty consequences in the Hereafter.

It is all qadar, yes. But the Sunnah teaches us that qadar does not mean passivity. The Prophet ﷺ said:

اعملوا فكل ميسّر لما خلق له
“Do [good deeds], for everyone will find it easy to do that for which he was created.”
(Al-Bukhārī, 4949 and Muslim, 2647)

Thus, we strive ; that is our responsibility. And we believe the result is Allaah’s decision, that is His wisdom. If we strive and do not achieve due to qadar, then we still have the reward for our effort. This is the ‘Aqeedah of Ahlus-Sunnah: taking the means, while trusting the outcome to Allaah.

Therefore, O sisters in particular: have taqwaa of Allaah. Do not misuse the phrase “Allaah’s time has not come” when it comes to marriage, while for food and clothing you do not wait passively. Yes, you rely on Allaah, that's compulsory, but you also make effort, seek, choose, and take means.

Marriage deserves more caution and diligence than food or clothing, because its outcome touches both dunya and ākhirah.

May Allaah grant us sound understanding, make us righteous, first and grant us righteous spouses that will be a source of coolness to our eyes.

Raising Children upon Chivalry (Muru’ah)

It is good to accustom children from their early years to maintain family ties, show kindness to neighbors, and respect people of virtue and men of honor.

For indeed, chivalry and noble character, if planted early in the soul, become firmly established, and their roots remain strong with the passing of days.

And it has been said regarding this:

"If a man is deprived of chivalry in his youth,
Then seeking it in old age will be difficult for him."

Are you an Honorable Man?

*✨ Lines to Light ✨*

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

How many of us have carried the dream of memorizing the Qur’ān for years? For some, it’s been 2 years… for others, 5 or even 10 years and yet, we may not have grown even by a single page.

The sad truth is that without a plan, we keep pushing the dream forward, and one day we wake up realizing: it’s still just a dream in our heads.

But what if there was a simple way to start?


🌿 A Steady Path: 3 Lines a Day

Memorize 3 lines daily

That’s 1 page weekly

Which means the entire Qur’ān in 12.5 years


It sounds slow but it’s steady. And steady always beats “someday.”


🕰 The Formula

3 lines take about 30 seconds to read

If repeated 50 times a day thats about 25 minutes total

Split into 3 sessions:

Fajr: 25 repetitions

ʿAsr: 15 repetitions

Maghrib/Ishāʾ: 10 repetitions


✨ Why This Works

No overwhelm, just 3 lines

Strong memorization through repetition

Qur’ān stays with you throughout the day

Slowly but surely, you’ll complete the journey


🌸 Start Now!

Memorization is not about speed, it’s about consistency. Imagine yourself, 12 years from now standing with the Qur’ān in your heart, while others are still saying “one day I’ll start.”

So let’s begin. Not tomorrow. Not “someday.”
Today. With just 3 lines.

All praise is due to Allaah, and may peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allaah. To proceed:

We have received news today of the passing of His Eminence, the noble scholar, the Grand Mufti of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Shaykh Abdul-Azīz Ibnu Abdillāh Āl ash-Shaykh - may Allaah have mercy on him, elevate his rank, and pardon his shortcomings. He enriched the path of daʿwah and goodness. May Allah grant the Muslims patience in their loss, compensate them with better, and indeed, to Allah we belong and to Him we shall return.

The Measure of True Salafiyyah, Evidence or Desires:

When you ask:

“Where is your evidence for this action or statement?”

And the response he meets you with is not revelation, nor principles rooted in revelation,
but instead disgust, anger, rejection, insult, contempt, blind argument, beating around the bush, transgression, oppression, or hatred toward you, the questioner;

Then know with certainty: his salafiyyah is incomplete.

This holds true whether the matter concerns ‘Aqeedah, Fiqh, or Aadaab.

How tragic if the deficiency lies in his ‘Aqeedah!

Allah ﷻ says:

{ فَإِن لَّمۡ یَسۡتَجِیبُوا۟ لَكَ فَٱعۡلَمۡ أَنَّمَا یَتَّبِعُونَ أَهۡوَاۤءَهُمۡۚ وَمَنۡ أَضَلُّ مِمَّنِ ٱتَّبَعَ هَوَىٰهُ بِغَیۡرِ هُدࣰى مِّنَ ٱللَّهِۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا یَهۡدِی ٱلۡقَوۡمَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِینَ }
[Surah Al-Qaṣaṣ: 50]

“But if they answer you not (i.e., do not bring the Book nor believe in your doctrine of Islâmic Monotheism), then know that they only follow their own lusts. And who is more astray than one who follows his own lusts without guidance from Allâh? Verily, Allâh guides not the people who are wrongdoers.”

☘Siblings in Homeschooling: Companions on the Journey

One of the joys of homeschooling is watching the children learn together.

Even as early as 5 years old, you find that they have their own rhythm:

They take turns in reading a part of a book (not Qur’aan) .

They remind each other when one forgets.

They share a healthy sense of competition, because no one wants to be left behind.

This is more than study time, it’s character building: patience, encouragement, and accountability. 🌱

And while little voices sometimes clash, the bond they’re forming is priceless. They’re not just siblings; they’re classmates, teammates, and fellow seekers of knowledge.

Because in homeschooling, the lesson is never just the subject, it’s the love of learning together.

True Test of Eemaan

But no, by your Lord, they can have no (true) Faith, until they make you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) judge in all disputes between them, and find in themselves no resistance against your decisions, and accept (them) with full submission.

{ فَلَا وَرَبِّكَ لَا یُؤۡمِنُونَ حَتَّىٰ یُحَكِّمُوكَ فِیمَا شَجَرَ بَیۡنَهُمۡ ثُمَّ لَا یَجِدُوا۟ فِیۤ أَنفُسِهِمۡ حَرَجࣰا مِّمَّا قَضَیۡتَ وَیُسَلِّمُوا۟ تَسۡلِیمࣰا }

Brothers; Deen and Character Matter More!

My brothers, when you get married and children start coming, you will realize that the beautiful face and hour figure shape that drove you crazy will not help you!

When you are either busy at work or return from work:

You will be looking for that peace, tranquility, courtesy, patience, kindness, encouragement for your self.

You would be looking for nurturing, guidance, gentle and loving teaching for your children.

Thus, what you need will be a woman with good character, patience, taqwaa and knowledge, especially knowledge of her role as a Muslimah, wife and mother.

And a woman who has taqwaa of Allaah, who respects you, can raise your children upon goodness, and support you in building a home of faith and love.

Thus, if you choose her solely due to looks and lineage.

Then:

Your misery is remaining!

Marry the one who will be a teacher of good to your children and a comfort and tranquility for you in this life and the next.

How do you know that sister?! By taking your own Deen and Character serious!


{ ٱلۡخَبِیثَـٰتُ لِلۡخَبِیثِینَ وَٱلۡخَبِیثُونَ لِلۡخَبِیثَـٰتِۖ وَٱلطَّیِّبَـٰتُ لِلطَّیِّبِینَ وَٱلطَّیِّبُونَ لِلطَّیِّبَـٰتِۚ }
[Surah An-Nūr: 26]
Bad statements are for bad people (or bad women for bad men) and bad people for bad statements (or bad men for bad women). Good statements are for good people (or good women for good men) and good people for good statements (or good men for good women).

Considering consequences is the concern of the wise

Ibn Al-Jawzī رحمه الله said:

Considering outcomes and what might occur is the practice of the intelligent. As for only looking at the present situation, that is the habit of the ignorant and the foolish.

For example: a person sees himself healthy and forgets about illness, or wealthy and forgets about poverty, or he chases a fleeting pleasure and forgets the consequences it will bring.

The intellect has no true task except to look at the outcomes, for it points to what is correct and from where (issues) should be approached.

O seeker of knowledge, do not be a burden on your family!

Shaykh Ibnu Uthaymīn رحمه الله said:

It is not appropriate for one of us to be a burden, sitting among his family without speaking to them, without conversing with them. If he is a student of knowledge, his book is always with him. If he is a devout worshiper, he is reading Qur’aan or engaged in dhikru, but does not speak. Then when he is asked, “Why don’t you talk?” he replies: “Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him speak good or remain silent.”

We say to him: The Prophet ﷺ said: “Let him speak good.” Goodness may lie in the speech itself, or in something beneficial that the speech leads to. Without doubt, if you speak with your family or your companions with words that are permissible in essence, but your intention is to bring them comfort and joy, then this becomes goodness for the sake of what it leads to. And it may also be goodness in itself, such as mentioning to them a fiqh issue, or a story from which they can take a lesson, and the likes.

The important thing is: avoid what does not concern you.

Practical Application of Knowledge!

Shaykh Ibnu Uthaymīn رحمه الله said:

What is lacking in our knowledge is that we do not apply what we have learned to our conduct. For the most part, we only know the legal ruling, but as for putting it into practice, that is very little, we ask Allaah to deal with us with His pardon.

The benefit of knowledge lies in its practical application, such that the effect of knowledge is seen on a person’s face, his behavior, his manners, his worship, his dignity, his reverence for Allaah, and other such things. This is what truly matters.

Mere theoretical matters are not the real aim of knowledge; rather, the benefit of knowledge is to reap its fruits.

And how often do you find from the common folk, unlearned person who has more humility before Allaah ﷻ, more awareness of Him, better conduct, character, and worship than many a student of knowledge.

Life is short, so do not shorten it with

From the words of the wise:

They said: Life is short, so do not shorten it with worry and distresses.

So it is astonishing at one who has come near the edge of the grave, and bid farewell to the days of amusement and lifetime, how his soul entices him to shorten his lifespan, while it is shorter than a flash, with disputes and quarrels, instead of adorning the remainder of it with forgiveness and pardon, gentleness and affection?!
