I've noticed some sisters here and in general often like to shame Men who have strict boundaries, standards or have opinion they disagree with, by questioning their masculinity.

"A real Man wouldn't do X"

"A real Man wouldn't say X"

"A real Man wouldn't believe X"

Etc..

A "real Man" according to most sisters is just a want who constantly bends his spine and lives his life just to please Women and solely abide by what THEY personally want.

Notice how when Women describe a "Real Man" he happens to always benefit the Woman in every way and holds views that all unequivocally favour/prioritise Women. The definition is always framed around how useful, accommodating and beneficial he is to Women, rather than his principes, self-respect, personal aspirations or character.

So don't let sisters tell you what a real Man should or shouldn't be. Most of them know nothing of Manhood or masculinity.

If a Woman ever tells you or tries to shame you into thinking you are not a "real Man" and you are genuinely hurt by that, you take her seriously and start questioning yourself, she is probably right. If a Woman says this to you, it usually means you are doing something right and are looking out for yourself, thinking for yourself so take it as a badge of honour.

it does help remove negative emotions. but if you're unhappy and insecure, marriage will not make you happy. it won't change that in you. you'll just be unhappily married.

having a loving and supportive partner does help remove anxiety, stress, sadness and the like, but that's great if you're already happy. happy and miserable people both deals with those feelings. but if you're unhappy for whatever reason, marriage won't change that.

As a Muslim woman and medical graduate, lately, I’ve been really interested in the intersection between women’s health and the deen.

I’ve noticed there are so many things Muslim women experience but don’t always feel comfortable talking about openly.

I’d genuinely love to hear from you. Have you ever had a health question or situation where you wished someone would explain to you from both a medical and Islamic perspective?

It could be:
• Periods, irregular bleeding, or understanding what counts as menstruation

• PCOS or other hormonal issues

• Fertility or trying to conceive

• Pregnancy or breastfeeding

• Sexual or reproductive health

• Menopause

• Mental health

• Finding healthcare that understands and respects your religious needs

• Questions about what your health means for salah, fasting, ghusl, or other acts of worship

• Or something completely different that isn’t on this list

And it doesn’t have to be one of these. If something comes to mind, what was the actual question or situation you were struggling with? And it could be sitting completely different as well.

If you’d rather not share something publicly, please feel free to DM me. 🤍 I completely understand that some health questions are personal, and I’d genuinely love to hear your experience.

No judgment at all🤍.

The Qadiyani sect, also known as the Ahmadiyya movement, was founded by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad in the late 19th century. He falsely claimed to be a prophet after the final Prophet, who is Muhammad ﷺ. They hold beliefs that contradict explicit statements in the Quran and Sunnah, and they declare that no one is a true Muslim unless they accept the alleged prophethood of Mirza Ghulam.

The emergence of false prophets was foretold by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ long before Mirza Ghulam was born.

Thawban reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:

لَا تَقُومُ السَّاعَةُ حَتَّى تَلْحَقَ قَبَائِلُ مِنْ أُمَّتِي بِالْمُشْرِكِينَ وَحَتَّى يَعْبُدُوا الْأَوْثَانَ وَإِنَّهُ سَيَكُونُ فِي أُمَّتِي ثَلَاثُونَ كَذَّابُونَ كُلُّهُمْ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ نَبِيٌّ وَأَنَا خَاتَمُ النَّبِيِّينَ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدِي

Verily, there will be thirty liars among my nation, all of them claiming to be a prophet, but I am the Seal of the Prophets. There is no prophet after me.

For this reason, virtually all scholarly organizations of Sunni Muslims have declared the Qadiyani to be non-Muslims outside the fold of Islam.

Shaykh Jadd al-Haqq, the top scholar of al-Azhar University at the time, answered:

أنه إذا كانت المعتقدات المنوه عن بعضها آنفا لهم كانوا بها خارجين عن الإسلام باعتبارهم قد خالفوا في كثير من الأمور المجمع عليها والتي صارت معلومة من الدين بالضرورة فضلاً عن أن في بعض معتقداتهم تكذيباً لما ورد في القرآن الكريم ولا مراء في أن من كذب القرآن خارج عن الإسلام ولا يعد من المسلمين

If they hold the aforementioned beliefs, then they would be outside the fold of Islam, considering that they had contradicted many of the agreed-upon matters that are necessarily known of the religion, in addition to the fact that some of their beliefs deny what is stated in the Holy Quran. There is no doubt that whoever denies the Qur’an is outside of Islam and is not considered a Muslim.

A Sudanese friend of mine has informed me that her sister in law has just been diagnosed with Lymphoma. I am looking to extend support in the form of Sadaqa Jaaria in honour of the sister in law in question while not making it appear morbid. Any suggestions?
