Enjoining good and forbidding evil: The least of which is hating it in your heart
Everyone understands that zina is haram, but very few people seem to understand that Muslim girls having kafir boyfriends is due to them being let down by the Muslim men around them.
How can you expect the respect of women when you see the worst of creation toying with your sisters in public and you do absolutely nothing about it?
Look at the kinds of Muslim men that women revert, abandon their lives and cross oceans for, then compare them to yourself.

Uproar at the destruction of ancient idols.
Whenever the images of Muslims smashing statues and ancient idols go viral, it enrages the disbelievers on a mass scale. At least a couple hundred thousand, if not more, start fuming because "muh historical artifacts" "muh history".
The Messenger (صلى الله عليه وسلم) was asked: "With what were you sent?” He said: “I was sent to uphold the ties of kinship, to break the idols, and so that Allaah would be worshipped alone with no partner or associate.” [Sahih Muslim]
Alhamdulillah, our Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) was sent to destroy idolatry, and that is what he did. For there is nothing worse then worshiping other than Allah, whether it be an idol or your own desires, as Allah has forbidden paradise for the one who engages in this kind of worship. Allah, the Most High, says:
{ إِنَّهُۥ مَن يُشْرِكْ بِٱللَّهِ فَقَدْ حَرَّمَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ ٱلْجَنَّةَ وَمَأْوَىٰهُ ٱلنَّارُ ۖ وَمَا لِلظَّـٰلِمِينَ مِنْ أَنصَارٍۢ }
"Indeed, he who associates others with Allah - Allah has forbidden him Paradise, and his refuge is the Fire. And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers." [5:72]
So, there is nothing more dangerous and detrimental to the human being than associating partners with Allah. It's a matter of Paradise and Hellfire. Which is why we as Muslims want to destroy all remnants of polytheism, to rid the world of this disbelief. Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, says:
{ وَقَـٰتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّىٰ لَا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌۭ وَيَكُونَ ٱلدِّينُ كُلُّهُۥ لِلَّهِ }
"And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [meaning: disbelief and polytheism] and the religion [worship] will all be for Allah Alone [in the whole of the world]." [8:39]
So..
With this in mind, why is it that we see some supposed Muslims feeling "sad" to thag these idols were destroyed? It's understandable that the disbelievers are irate and seething with rage, but a Muslim? The one who claims to worship Allah alone? The one who claims to follow the religion that our Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم) was sent with?
Since when do Muslims speak like this? We should only "preserve history" that's worth preserving, not pieces of rock which Ibrahim - the close friend of Allah - rejected and destroyed.

❗️ DON'T BE PASSIVE ❗️
An important reminder
I observe many brothers and sisters today facing a situation where they are aware of Muslims in desperate need of financial assistance. The only method to provide this aid is through cryptocurrency, and these individuals possess the desire and means to contribute, yet refrain from doing so. When questioned about why they don’t contribute , their responses often include statements such as "I don’t know how it works" or "I am not good with technical matters."
SubhanaAllah! In today's era, where learning is made so easy through short tutorials, some still find excuses to remain inactive. This passive behaviour is unsuitable for a Muslim, especially for a man.
Do you truly believe such excuses will be accepted by Allah ﷻ?
Furthermore, this principle extends beyond financial matters. As Muslims, we should strive to be “well-rounded”, so that we can support the ummah effectively.
This reminder is directed first to its author and then to the reader. May Allah instill sincerity in our hearts for His sake.

I don't usually like to ask people to make dua for me, but this one is very important to me.
There is a person I know who is interested in Islam. Please make dua that Allah guides them.

Shaykh `Abdullāh bin Jibrīn رحمه الله said:
“Both [Sayyid Quṭb and al-Ḥasan al-Bannā] were du`āt (callers) to Allāh, and have displayed patience and perseverance more than many others. Both of them were patient in the face of being killed, having been killed unjustly without abdicating what they called towards.
It was later that certain individuals emerged who insulted them and picked out their mistakes, classifying them as ‘misguided’, ‘callers to misguidance’, and disbelievers, outside the fold of Islām. It is an obligation upon a Muslim to recognise the people of good, indicating where they made mistakes and errors, whilst not disavowing the good of those who do good, nor denying the status and benefit of scholars. For, these scholars from the Muslim Brotherhood (Ikhwānu’l-Muslimūn), have dignified stances that many who came after will never be able to match. This is despite them having made mistakes in ijtihād for which they are excused.”

This young Muslim man was working at Google; a position coveted by countless peers. However, he couldn't bear to contribute to the killing of his brothers and sisters in Palestine through his work, so he sacrificed his job in support of the truth.
This serves as a message to those who take part in the ongoing crime in exchange for some fleeting worldly gains!
Notice how "te®️rorist" was previously used to label the one who fights, then became someone who believes the sharia must be established, and now a "te®️rorist" is someone who doesn't approve of the butchering of Muslims.
In their eyes, you will never be cleared of the accusation of te®️rorism until you disbelieve.

Girls: I want to be spanked so I can feel the strength of my man
Also girls: It is horrific that God allows you to spank your wife for rebelliousness
Make it make sense.

The reaction to this post is making me worry for you brothers who are looking to get married. At least learn the theory even if you can't do the practice yet. You want your future wife to satisfy you, yes? Learn to satisfy her too.

Capitalism is not just private ownership of the means of production. Islāmic societies historically had owners of capital too, many of whom were slave owners but others were also what we’d call the petty bourgeoisie. This was the case during the time of the Prophet ﷺ as well, but no one calls historical Islāmic economies capitalist.
The package of capitalism comes with a philosophy as well, and this philosophy includes the belief that a society where people primarily look out for their self-interests will lead to optimal outcomes for society at large.
When people prioritise profits over principles and the collective good of humankind, it leads to a high concentration of capital and various innovations by capitalists to expand their businesses and make more profit that involve waging war on Islāmic values, such as values enjoining upholding the ties of kinship, brotherhood between the believers, charity, gifting, etc.
These values lead to the strengthening of traditional social structures and institutions that were historically so prevalent, important, powerful, and influential in Islāmic history. The family, the tribe, local communities, awqāf, etc. all hinder the rise of monopoly capitalism — an inevitable result of an increasing concentration of capital. Centralisation of power is a necessary prerequisite for monopoly capitalism.
Ribā is also necessary for the rise of monopoly capitalism because of how much wealth the bourgeoisie needs to innovate, expand their businesses, and make more profit. The heavy reliance of capitalists on ribā can be seen by the rapid capital concentration in banking that accompanied the rise of monopoly capitalism.
Monopoly capitalism also leads to nationalism and imperialism as the bourgeoisie utilises their influence over the state to expand into foreign territory, take over its resources and markets, and justify all of it.
Defining what capitalism is and explaining its incompatibility with Islām would take an article to sufficiently articulate, but this brief overview should do for now.

Abu Ahmad al-Qassab رحمه الله from his work, an-Nukat:
His saying (the verse): “Then he (Dhun-Nun, the prophet Yunus) cried out in the depths of darkness, 'There is no god but You, glory be to You; truly, I have been among the wrongdoers.'”
This is proof that proclaiming "La ilaha illa Allah" (there is no god but Allah) and glorifying Allah clear away sorrows and save from distress and calamities.
Therefore, it is essential for those who believe in the Book of Allah to make these their refuge in times of hardship and their support in times of ease; in trust of what Allah promised the believers by granting them the same as He did for Dhun-Nun (Yunus) when He said: "So We answered him and saved him from his grief, and thus We save the believers."
