I have a wuddu question that may not be suitable for younger readers, please be advised but I’ll keep this as PG as possible.

Everything in wudu is easy for me alhamdulillah, the gusul gives me a bit of a hard time though because I have a problem in peeing. When I pee there’s always left over drips that I never can get out during my main pee. I’ll stand over the toilet for an extra 30 seconds to get the drips out but once I put my underwear back on and walk away I can feel more drips happen, sometimes the drips can dribble down my leg if there’s a good amount. This makes wudu astghaphurallah a little harder on me. This means the next time I do wuddu I have to change my underwear and I’m so paranoid that the pee could’ve touched my pants that I change them too. Any advise on this please? If I’m out and about I can’t do wuddu at a random bathroom because if I had peed I’ll need to change my underwear and I can’t do that unless I’m at home.

May Allah make it easy on me, ameen.

Thanks my brothers and sisters in islam , jazakum Allah khair.

Assalamualaikum everyone,

I honestly have no one to talk to about something like this so I've resorted to reddit as a sort of cry for help. Just some background: I'm 18, male, in university, American, and come from a (very) practicing Pakistani family.

Alhamdullilah I pray 5 times a day and do my best to stay within my boundaries (unless you're amongst those who believe drawing cartoons, watching tv, and listening to music is sinful... but I would appreciate it if we could not have an argument about that). But my heart is almost always very conflicted. I feel like Islam is the boundaries and practices I set for myself, but the way I think about other people and the world as a whole is very liberal, probably quite a bit more than many of you guys would deem appropriate. And I notice the language I use and the morals I draw upon differ greatly depending on if I'm in secular circles or Muslim ones. I feel like I lead a double life, and if I'm to be honest I don't participate of my own accord in Muslim communities beyond what my parents drag me along to.

I guess it's easy to say I shouldn't be ashamed of my faith, but it's not as simple as that. There are things in the Shari'a like penal/punitive law, women's rights, treatment of homosexuals, fate of people of other religions, etc. that I personally struggle to reconcile. That along with the issue of sectarianism and institutionalization (Sunni, Shi'a, maddhabs, scholarly disagreement, compilation of hadith, etc.) sometimes makes me question the divinity of Islam, or at least Islam as it is practiced in this modern era. There are more things that bother me and also get a lot more existential than that, but I'd prefer to privately discuss those kinds of things with a sympathetic scholar.

I know people get told that you should just make du'a, read more Quran, the evil influence of the west is getting to you, etc. Unfortunately none of that is particularly constructive in my case. If you can help it please do not list the immaturity of someone my age as a reason for why I just can't understand. I have no desire to party, have sex outside of marriage, do drugs, do whatever I want. I just can't blindly follow Islam as much as I would like to, and I need to understand the truth.

Does anyone know of any counseling resources, shuyukh I can reach out to, etc. that know how to deal with things like this? Someone who is willing to be empathetic, isn't dismissive of my concerns, wouldn't say things like stop being insolent, you shouldn't question these things, etc. I feel like most people who are knowledgeable enough to help me are too busy or would charge me money I don't have (but the latter is more manageable). I would love to sit down and talk to someone like Dr. Shabir Ally or other scholars who deal more with interfaith/debate things, but I understand that it's not fair for me to expect individual attention from them. I feel stuck, scared, and alone. It was terrifying enough articulating my thoughts aloud like this as I guess they can be read in a way that is blasphemous. That's not my intention I just have questions and need help.

Jazakallah khair

I've read that in Islam female shouldn't be "leader" if possible, but I then remember a hadith that says "Everyone is a leader of something" or something along that line (I check, it seems to be HR Bukhari: 4789)

My question here is what is the definition of "leader" here, and what's the limit? (Is politician a leader, is vice president a leader, is a minister of something a leader? Etc.) What position can and what position can't be hold by women?

Hello, I am not a Muslim (either culturally nor religiously). Im an American Agnostic. What are your opinions on non-Muslims wearing Hijabs? I understand that Muslims living in Western Cultures get "pointed out" for wearing them and it causes damage. I find it utilitarian for my uses and aesthetically pleasing. Im not Islamophobic and I advocate for better treatment of Muslims and Middle Eastern expatriates in my country. I dont want to appropriate cultures. Thoughts?

Assalamulaikum my fellow brothers. I am a almost 14 y/o boy will a ton of problems. Lets talk about my depression first. My mom hates me. Literally. She hits me first and then she tells me what to do after. I crave for her love. I want her to love me. After Maghrib i told her i want to talk to her. She says she doesn’t want to talk to me cause she hates me. And second of all is my poor connection to Allah. I like hearing the quran. I also enjoy reading it a bit. I try to pray my myself without being told, but I usually have someone else tell me to. Third is my Porn Addiction. I know it is haram. I try to stop it. But i am tempted. It started in 5th grade cause of school. Can anyone guide me. Jazakallah

The original manuscript by Russian traveler Afanasy Nikitin is full of Muslim prayers, which are not mentioned in publicly available translations

"A Journey Beyond the Three Seas". Nikitin's work was the first Russian work to accurately describe a trade and non-religious journey. The famous Russian historian N.M. Karamzin opened "The Voyage Beyond Three Seas" in the Trinity List and published excerpts from it in the notes to Volume VI of "History of the Russian State".

Nikitin's recordings are very curious. Apart from the fact that the author introduces us to the culture and history of the peoples he has visited, he has left us an interesting monument of Russian speech. What is surprising about it is that Afanasiy, when he talks about his travels, sometimes goes from Russian to some kind of gibberish that is impossible to understand. But you can translate it knowing the Turkic languages.

Unusual in the notes of the Russian traveller is the frequent reference to Allah, whom he calls Ollo. Moreover, he repeatedly uses the traditional Muslim "Allah Akbar", which clearly shows which god he addresses. Here is a typical prayer tirade for the whole text, in which, as elsewhere, Russian speech alternates with non-Russian:

"Ollo hudo, Ollo ak, Ollo ty, Ollo akber, Ollo ragym, Ollo kerim, Ollo ragym elelo, Ollo karim ello, tangresen, hudosensen. Boz edin, ty tsar slavy, tvorets nebu i zemli."

We see the translation:

"O Lord God, true God, you are God, great God. God is merciful. God is merciful, you are the most merciful and merciful God. Lord God. God is one, then the king of glory, creator of heaven and earth."

The translator obviously failed to cope with the Nikitin "Ollo", and Allah turned into a politically correct God, and the original text thus lost one of its meanings. Reading "A Journey Beyond the Three Seas" in such a translation, it is no longer possible to see the originality and uniqueness of old Russian culture, and how wrong our ideas about ancient Orthodoxy are.

Almost at the very end of the story, Afanasiy uses his traditional exclamations, among them the Muslim "Allah Akbar" and Christian "Amen", that is, according to our ideas, mixes the incompatible:

"Milostieyu Bozhiey preidoh zhe tri morya. Diger Hudo dono, Ollo pervodiger dano. Amen! Smilna rahmam ragim. Ollo akber, akshi Hudo, ilello aksh Hodo. Isa ruhoalo, aaliksolom. Ollo akber. A ilyagailya ilello."

The last phrase in this passage is the classic "There is no God but Allah", but in translation we see something quite different: "There is no God but God". In essence, it is the same, but the Islamic character of the author's faith becomes invisible.

The last page of the manuscript

He concludes his notes with a prayer, which strengthens his thoughts that the Tver merchant Afanasy Nikitin has changed his previous beliefs. Amazingly, in the last few hours Nikitin mentions phrases that a righteous Muslim would repeat before his death. The final prayer in "A Journey Beyond the Three Seas" by Afanasy Nikitin consists of three parts: 1) general glorification of God, 2) distorted by the writing of the glorification of Allah according to the 22-23 ayats of the 59th surah of the Koran, and 3) an error-free and fairly accurate list of epithets of Allah from the 4th to the 31st "name".
Here it is (brought in line with Trinity Exodus):

«Ollo pervodigyr! Milostie zhe Bozheyu proeidoh zhe tri morya. Digir Hudo dono, Ollo pervodigir dono. Amen! Smilna rahmam ragym. Ollo akber, akshi Hudo, illello akshi hodo. Isa - ruhollo, aliksolom. Ollo akber. La ilyagilya ill Ollo. Ollo pervodiger. Ahamdu lillo, shukur hudo afatad. Bisminagi rahmam rragym. Huvo mugu llyzi, lya ilyaga il-llya guya alimul gyabi va shagadati. Hua rahmanu ragymu, huvo mogu lyazi. Lya ilyaga il-lya gua. Almeliku, alkudosu, asalomu, almuminu, almugaminu, alyazazu, alchebaru, almutaanibiru, alhaliku, albariuyu, almusaviry, alkafaru, alkaharu, alvahadu, alrazaku, alfaiagu, alalimu, alkabiru, albasutu, alhafizu, alerrafiu, almavifu, almuzilu, alsimiyu, alvasiryu, alakamu, aladyulyu, alyatufu!»

[In the name of Allah the Merciful, Merciful! Allah is great, Good God. Jesus is the spirit of Allah, peace be upon him. Allah is great. There is no God but Allah. The Lord is a thinker. Praise be to Allah, thanks be to God Almighty. In the name of Allah, the merciful, merciful. He is God, except for whom there is no God, who knows everything hidden and obvious. He is merciful, merciful. He has no one like Him. There is no God but Him. He is the Ruler, the Holy One, the World, the Guardian, the Evaluator of Good and Evil, the Almighty, the Healer, the Exalted, the Creator, the Creator, the Imaginator, the Permitter from Sins, the Carator, Resolution of all difficulties, Nourishing, Victorious, Omniscient, Punishing, Correcting, Preserving, Exalting, Forgiving, Neglecting, Hearing, Omniscient, Omniscient, Right, Just, Good].

So for wudu and ghusl, what should I do in order to stay safe from the recent brain-eating water amoeba outbreak? I live extremely close to the water Disaster, so how can I stay clean (do wudu) without rinsing water in nose for Salah? And for ghusl in general, water gets in my nose unintentionally.

A Statue of the Libyan teacher and freedom fighter in Caracas, Venezuela

When Benito Mussolini seized control of Libya in 1922, he set out to put Libya firmly under Italian colonial control. Ever since the Ottoman Empire lost the North African province with the defeat in the First World War, Italy treated the Tripolitanian Republic in the west, and Cyrenaica -- under the leadership of Sheikh Sidi Idris al-Mahdi as-Senussi -- in the east, as dependencies, negotiating concessions for Italian businesses and settlers, and gradually extending influence and power. Mussolini however wanted total control, and ordered a Pacification Campaign to crush Libyan autonomy.

From 1922 until 1931 Omar al-Mukhtar Muhammad bin Farhat al-Manifi led the anti-colonial resistance in Cyrenaica. A Bedouin teacher of the Quran, Omar al-Mukhtar employed guerrilla desert warfare tactics, hitting Italian outposts and supply lines with small groups of fighters that would strike and quickly dissappear into the desert. Even his enemies had to respect his skill, and one Italian General praised his "exceptional perseverance and strong will power".

In 1929, having failed to defeat Mukhtar's resistance, the Italians tried to negotiate a peace settlement with him. Eventually negotiations broke down, though, and the Lion of the Desert fought off a massive Italian offensive. Mussolini then authorized internment of 100,000 civilians from Jebel Akhdar in concentration camps along the coast, and closed the border with Egypt preventing the mujahidin from being supplied both from the local population and the Ummah abroad.

Despite a lack of supplies and an extensive aerial bombardment campaign, Mukhtar held out until September 11, 1931, when he was ambushed near Slonta and captured by the Italians. He was quickly tried, sentenced to death, and hanged on September 16, five days later.

Mukhtar's Senussi rebels went on to provide assistance to the British and Americans during the Second World War, and their martyred leader has been a symbol of Muslim anti-colonial resistance ever since.

"We do not surrender -- we win or we die. As for me, I will live longer than my hangman."

So I don't know if this is just me but alhamdulillah I'v been to many many beautiful places in my life - places which pictures can do no justice to (like this one https://imgur.com/a/RnT6Csk) but I always come back to the one place which evoked really strong spirituality in me.

I was in dubai for vaca and it was maghrib time and we were in the middle of the desert in a tourist spot, like with flame throwers and magic show and what not in a large tent smack in the middle of the desert and the events hadnt started yet so i prayed magrib and was sitting outside the whole tent area and watching this other dude at the crest of a dune also finishing up his prayers. The sun was going down and there was an orange glow everywhere. SubhanAllah what a magnificent feeling it evoked in me. As if nothing mattered except God. A true understanding that everything, from the smallest to the largest was dependent on God. I felt all the trappings of modern life just fall away from me. Amazing moment.

THat was the first and only time iv been in a desert like that. Has anyone else ever felt that way about a desert vs other natural places? Every now and then I think about that place and yearn to go back.

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Many amongst men attained perfection but amongst women none attained the perfection except Mary, the daughter of Imran and Asiya, the wife of Pharaoh. And the superiority ofAisha to other women is like the superiority of Tharid (i.e. an Arabic dish) to other meals."

حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الأَشْعَرِيِّ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ كَمَلَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ كَثِيرٌ، وَلَمْ يَكْمُلْ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ إِلاَّ مَرْيَمُ بِنْتُ عِمْرَانَ، وَآسِيَةُ امْرَأَةُ فِرْعَوْنَ، وَفَضْلُ عَائِشَةَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ كَفَضْلِ الثَّرِيدِ عَلَى سَائِرِ الطَّعَامِ ‏"‏‏.‏

As-salamu alaykum,

So recenlty I'm in this point of confusion.

I love anime and manga, I like reading and watching stories, the action and all that.

I also wish and have been wishing this for like 4 years now. I wish to write a story on my own. And to tell that story in a way of creativity. Such as a comic.

But I've found out that drawing beings with a soul is considered haram because on the day of judgement you will be asked to "give a soul to it".

What's the wrong in drawing characters from your own imagination?

I am not trying to create life, I am not trying to copy ALLAH's Creation or anything. I'm just trying to use the gift Allah has given to every human being : Imagination.

I get that figures such as sculptures are haram because people tend to idolize them. I am not trying to sculpt anything anyway.

Neither am I trying to make my drawing, made from graphite of the pencil, that is taken from the soil Allah created to be worshipped. I just want to tell a story from my own imagination. A story that will not offend Islam in any way at all.

What should I do? I've wanted to do this so much but now I'm in such a bad spot.

I know this isn't a the most right way to ask for help, I know that probably there is people who know someone who is maybe a schoolar or imam to help me cope with this issue. Again I am not asking a therapy here I am asking help from the point of islam and how to deal with it. So situation is like this, I will not go in to the details that much. My mother and father got divorce, my mom remarried very soon. When I was 12 they got divorce, almost 2 years later I started living with her and my stepfather. From 14-20 he sexualy abused me, with touching and so on. The day I told her that she did not believe me, she was mad. I have to mantion that I come from domestic violent family, where sometimes I would be water boild if I did not eat all from the plate, or spit on if I did not learn for school well(from my mom). My dad however asked me to forgive him even though he used to punish me in a bad manner, but I did so I will not go to the detalis that much about him. My mother however talks bad about my dad, very harsh words that I don't want to mention. When I was 14 she gave birth to my halfsister, they were never home I would take care of her, and still I dp that to this day. If I missbehave now If I tell her that she is wrong and I dont want to be crossroad between her and my brother or my father to say things to him that she wants me to say, she would use islam for small things and threat me that she will haram me,and she did haram me the birth of me and her milk, because I said I dont want to be mother to my siblings or father they already have mother and father who should raise them. She would talk trash about my father and his mother and say horrible things that hurt me a lot. When I tell her that I have to go and pray in order to avoid her anger and my anger not to respond her or have an argument she would yell more and not allow me to go and pray until she finishes yelling with my stepfathwr who is very sneaky and does a lot pf bad things like manipulating and so on. For example last night my dad doesnt have money to pay off my college or to participate even a bit, cuz he js taking care of my brother and his parents. She was mad because I did not want to tell that he is bad person because he doesnt have money, she is telling me that he is lying and my stepfather also talked very bad things, even when I told them I am getting a job to pay it by myself. She made me go to this collage and I did not want to missbehave, now she is also trying to get me "married" for someone i dont want.she would use frases from islam, and she would be mad if I tell her nicley without raising my voice that this is not okay for her to do it. So i keep silent if I tell her anything even fron the islam point of veiw she woukd get extreamly mad. I need the help from the point of islam is there an advice how to go first off all to tell her I need to pray so she stops doing that and that is not letting me pray when I tell her I have to go and pray, because I feel like that is the best solution for me, to cope with it. Seek refugee from Allah.

I want to ask why Allah gives some people endless trials, miserable life? I understand to check their faith, but why some people are endlessly happy? Should not we all have same exams, in order to check who is who? How miserable poor person is supposed to be grateful, and happy? Why Allah lets this happen to some poor people? Endless trials will break them. I dont understand how is it fair to check who deserves heaven and hell.... Even if poor people are ungrateful, they had too much bad life, its understandable. How they deserve hell?

So I really want to try shifting, it’s basically letting your mind go to another reality, whether it’s a place from a tv show or seeing someone you love that has passed.

It’s not hard to do and you just have to make sure you have a safe word and give yourself a time, like 1 minute in our world equals 1 month in —— world. Because without a time you could get stuck.

I know this may sound very stupid and fake to some people but I really don’t want to be judged I just want to see if it is haram or not because if it is I won’t do it.

Very often we get stack understanding the quran or making sense of what the verses mean. In addition to using the Authentic hadith to explain the quran, we need some additional tools to understand more.

For example, rules of tajweed. This rules were not made up by the scholars but rather were taught by the prophet (SAW) on how to read the quran correctly and when to pause of stop etc. Stopping anyhow without following this rules could change the meaning of the qura. for example the famous verse which some modern scholars tried too cook meaning for it They ommited the fullstop here اِلَّا اللّٰهُ ​ۘ وَ الرّٰسِخُوۡنَ and they changed the meaning.

هُوَ الَّذِىۡۤ اَنۡزَلَ عَلَيۡكَ الۡكِتٰبَ مِنۡهُ اٰيٰتٌ مُّحۡكَمٰتٌ هُنَّ اُمُّ الۡكِتٰبِ وَاُخَرُ مُتَشٰبِهٰتٌ​ؕ فَاَمَّا الَّذِيۡنَ فِىۡ قُلُوۡبِهِمۡ زَيۡغٌ فَيَتَّبِعُوۡنَ مَا تَشَابَهَ مِنۡهُ ابۡتِغَآءَ الۡفِتۡنَةِ وَابۡتِغَآءَ تَاۡوِيۡلِهٖۚ وَمَا يَعۡلَمُ تَاۡوِيۡلَهٗۤ اِلَّا اللّٰهُ ​ۘ وَ الرّٰسِخُوۡنَ فِى الۡعِلۡمِ يَقُوۡلُوۡنَ اٰمَنَّا بِهٖۙ كُلٌّ مِّنۡ عِنۡدِ رَبِّنَا ​ۚ وَمَا يَذَّكَّرُ اِلَّاۤ اُولُوا الۡاَلۡبَابِ

It is He who has sent down to you, [O Muhammad], the Book; in it are verses [that are] precise - they are the foundation of the Book - and others unspecific. As for those in whose hearts is deviation [from truth], they will follow that of it which is unspecific, seeking discord and seeking an interpretation [suitable to them]. And no one knows its [true] interpretation except Allah. But those firm in knowledge say, "We believe in it. All [of it] is from our Lord." And no one will be reminded except those of understanding .

Understanding the knowledge of sarf and understanding the root words is very important. Unlike how the quraaniyoon do it, which is playing with the root words until they develop something which suits their desires. Take the time to learn under an scholar this sarf. Its little bit hard but once you learn you will be able to gain more meaning of the quran. For example why does Allah use Qaffaar, Qafuur and Qaafir?? Same word but different sarf.

Another important factor is the knowledge of grammar/icraab/naxw for example below if you put kasrah in rasuulihi it will change the meaning and make the rasuul an object instead of the subject grammar rules

وَأَذَانٌ مِّنَ اللّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ إِلَى النَّاسِ يَوْمَ الْحَجِّ الأَكْبَرِ أَنَّ اللّهَ بَرِيءٌ مِّنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَرَسُولُهُ فَإِن تُبْتُمْ فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ وَإِن تَوَلَّيْتُمْ فَاعْلَمُواْ أَنَّكُمْ غَيْرُ مُعْجِزِي اللّهِ وَبَشِّرِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ بِعَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ ﴿٣﴾

And [it is] an announcement from Allah and His Messenger to the people on the day of the greater pilgrimage that Allah is disassociated from the disbelievers, and [so is] His Messenger. So if you repent, that is best for you; but if you turn away - then know that you will not cause failure to Allah. And give tidings to those who disbelieve of a painful punishment.

and the famous verse that still the anti-islamic preacher use today saying Allah prays for prophet mohamed(saw) The key is understanding cala/ilaa/li the difference between this letters which you learn in basic naxw classes ..the verse says prays upon/send prayers/blessings to not pray towards or pray for...if you know basic arabic rules, you in no way say Allah prays here.

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ وَمَلٰٓـئِكَتَهٗ يُصَلُّوۡنَ عَلَى النَّبِىِّ ؕ يٰۤـاَيُّهَا الَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا صَلُّوۡا عَلَيۡهِ وَسَلِّمُوۡا تَسۡلِيۡمًا

Allah and His angels bless the Prophet.106 Believers, invoke blessings and peace on him

lastly bonus verse of the day

فَمَا اسْطَاعُوا أَنْ يَظْهَرُوهُ وَمَا اسْتَطَاعُوا لَهُ نَقْبًا

QURAN SURAH AL KAHF 97 IN ENGLISH TRANSLATION

SAHIH INTERNATIONAL

(18:97) So Gog and Magog were unable to pass over it, nor were they able [to effect] in it any penetration.

the translation says able in both cases, which is correct basically , but to appreciate why the difference in this verb got to learn the safr again. The meaning is the same but one is slightly stronger than the other.

Side note, Its compulsory upon us to learn the basic knowledge for worship and our life but if we want to engage in debate and question things, let us take the time to learn sarf,naxw,tajweed,hadiith,fiqh and etc. Put the time and effort in or respect the scholars who specialized in these field.

Brothers and sisters you can add more examples.

Allah knows the best.

Hope you're all well. I recently had a light-bulb moment and wanted thoughts/opinions. Growing up, my parents always emphasized reading the Quran. Specifically, reading it in Arabic. My younger self didn't question this and for some reason I thought this was the only way to do it. My older self now is questioning why was it like that? I'm not fluent in reading Arabic and don't understand it at all. When I read the Quran in Arabic, I didn't know what anything meant. I realized that when I read the transliteration, I actually understand what I'm reading and I even remember the verses later. Is there a reason most kids are taught to read it in Arabic, even if they don't fully understand what they're reading. Is it Sunnah or simply to preserve the language? I have no qualms with it but Imo, actually understanding what I'm reading has brought me closer to my faith. Please, lmk what you guys think!

Hello. I am not Muslim, but I am curious.

If the Kaaba was truly built by Abraham as you say, and it was holy to the Jews, then how and why did they forget about it? If a pilgrimage to Mecca is one of the 5 Pillars in Islam, then why is the Kaaba not mentioned in any Jewish or Christian text? Shouldn’t there have been Jewish tribes constantly protecting the Kaaba? How was it overtaken by the Polytheists? Who Altered Jewish holy texts to Erase all mentions of the Kaaba, and why?

I am not trying to discredit Islam here, but I am genuinely curious.

As-Salam Aleikum, Brothers and Sisters. I am a Muslim by birth not from conversion and I'm having a bit of a crisis. I don't know Arabic, meaning I can't memorize. I struggle to pay properly (dont even know if I'm saying the right things) because of the lack of knowledge of Surahs, Ayahs. I am literally a 17 yr old with the mind of a new convert. I know very little about my Religion (What's a Tasbeeh? Hadiths?Dhikr? Hasnaat?As cliche as it is, I need to know everything without looking like a failure by other relatives. Please forgive me Brothers and Sisters I've had this unsolved crisis for years.) Shukh-Rika, Brothers and Sisters.

So I've been a Muslim all my life but lately (last few months or so) ive been having a bunch of doubts about Islam. One of them is how our Prophets marriage to Aisha can be ok. I've tried convincing myself but deep down, i cant accept that a 50 year old marrying a 6 year old is anywhere in the realm of acceptable. I've seen some explanations but none of them really convince me, I've heard things like "It was a normal practice at the time" but isn't the prophets example one that should be followed for the rest of time? And there used to be tons of things that were socially acceptable that Islam opposed, why not child marriage?

I'd appreciate any answers or links to any resources

If obeying the Prophet (saw) carries the same weight as obeying God, why did Allah not reveal the Hadith as part of the Quran? If the Hadith are not protected like the Quran, would Allah punish someone for not following something they're not sure they can trust?

Sincerely asking, because any attempt to study the Hadith usually ends up with someone saying "you're not allowed to understand the Hadith until you've studied 20 years at x university." Which would get in the way of being a Muslim, if obeying the Prophet (saw) is required (which it is).

Allah never says to put trust in anyone other than Muhammad (saw), and the schools of thought didn't exist at the time of the Prophet. Scholars definitely aren't infallible. So I don't accept arguments that trusting scholars are a necessary part to being a Muslim. Shouldn't we be able to use independent reasoning and interpretation as the fundamental part of our faith, with the scholars as a secondary supplement?

Similar to Christian Psalm 118:24 “this is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.”

I am looking for any verse on appreciating the day, the opportunities given, small moments, etc. Not so much “be thankful you’re not dead yet!!” nor warning to not take things for granted...

but instead more about being grateful for the creation, for the plans or future being in his hands already, for the small delights of life, for breath and life, for peace in the path He has written, etc. Is there anything specific to mornings and sunrise as well?

Many thanks and peace to you.

I'm 24 now and really want to get into a relationship. I know preferably marriage is better but I doubt I will be able to get married because I don't want kids. So this greatly reduces my options. Trust me this is something I'm extremely sure I will not change my mind on so I don't want anyone trying to convince me otherwise in the comments. Unlike a lot of other people I see children as a burden. People are rarely honest about how hard raising children is. I've already been through so much in my life I know I don't want to add children to the list.

Anyway I'm struggling with zina a lot these days. It's been a struggle for me for a while but it's gotten stronger in the last couple of weeks for some reason. And I'm seeing all these couples online it's hard not to get curious about what it's like and want to experience what they have. A boyfriend seems easier to get then a husband now because I'm not ready for marriage. I have so many things I need to work on. Any advice from someone whos been there or going through this?

I want to add that most of the women my age in my family got married after dating

I prefer a womans perspective but I'm open to anyone who has good advice. I just feel like sex and relationships are different for muslim men than muslim women. Muslim men get to go on and on about how difficult it is for them to stay away from zina but let a muslim woman be honest about her own struggles and watch how many of them try to belittle or even shame her for how she feels. I hate how so many muslim men downplay womans desires. I remember seeing a video of a famous speaker talking about how he was answering questions at an event and he was shocked by a woman asking if oral sex was okay and he acted disgusted by her audacity to ask such a thing, especially so publicly. When there's nothing immodest about her asking about it. It's just a question, she wasn't talking about her own sex life. I'm sure people asked more explicit questions to scholars in the past and they didn't turn their nose up at them.

  • A federal judge has temporarily blocked a ban on the TikTok app in the US.
  • The ban was supposed to go into full effect at the end of the day on Sunday.
  • Instead, the app will continue to be available while the court continues to go over the case.

TikTok users and creators in the US can rest easy for now. The planned ban of the popular social networking mobile app in the US ordered by the Trump administration has now been blocked by a federal judge, at least for the time being.

Originally, the TikTok ban was supposed to go into full effect at midnight Eastern time on Sunday under orders from the Commerce Department. However, according to NPR, the judge for the US District Court for the District of Columbia, Carl Nichols, decided to stop the ban.

Judge Nichols heard arguments from both the Trump administration’s lawyers, along with lawyers representing TikTok, over the phone on Sunday. TikT0k’s attorneys argued that shutting down access to the app violated the company’s First Amendment free speech rights. However, attorneys for the US Department of Justice claimed that TikTok was “the most immediate national security threat.”  They claimed the app, owned by China-based ByteDance, could have data collected from its users taken by the Chinese government. TikTok has repeatedly denied this would happen.

However, in the end, Judge Nichols decided in TikTok’s favor. There’s no word on why he made this ruling. This means TikTok can continue to be available to US users while a full court hearing on this case goes through.

Meanwhile, we are still waiting to see if a deal to purchase TikTok’s US assets will actually happen. The Trump administration has given an in-principle nod to a deal between Oracle, Walmart, and TikTok. However, the agreement is not final yet. Oracle could end up getting a 12.5% stake in the US operations of TikTok and Walmart could get a 7.5% stake as per the current deal terms.
