May Allāh bless Mufti Zameelur Rahman! ❤️

Imām al-Mawṣilī (599 – 683 AH) states:

A woman acting as a qāḍī is valid (yajūz) in those issues in which her testimony is accepted. However, it is makrūh (taḥrīman) as it entails speaking with men, whereas her affair is grounded in (the principle of) concealment. (al-Ikhtiyār (Dār al-Risālat al-‘Ālamiyyah), 2:204)

Andrew Tate has exceeded all the limits of ḥusn al-dhan and possible excuses of ignorance. He has been advised several times by countless people.

Stop defending him. Stop promoting him.

Enough is enough.

Do not take drugs.

مفتي تقي عثماني ❤️

There were so many pictures to choose from, but he decided to pick the one with the ladies, of course.

I messaged my teacher as we were supposed to have a lesson now, and he replies saying that he’ll need 15 more minutes and then proceeds to send this picture! 😅🤎🤍

May Allāh preserve them all.

The following are 2 very crucial skills that Muslims will require when navigating the modern world and working with the knowledge and information being put out, especially in the context of Dīn:

1️⃣) Having a deep understanding of Islām as a comprehensive worldview and being able to effectively identify what is in-line with the Dīn and what is not.
———————————————————

This is something many people today struggle with, due to the lack of proper Islamic education, and the widespread influence of foreign ideologies pushed into our communities by external factors.

I can confidently say that nothing will truly change until this is fixed and regardless of whether or not you’re ready to acknowledge this, it is the core reason for our current state.

As Muslims, we have our own conception of morality (al-taḥsīn wal-taqbīḥ), and our own definition of success and progress. A liberal or progressivist understands those terms very differently, and that is because of their philosophy and worldview.

We aren’t supposed to understand these terms through the lens of any worldview other than Islām. But that is what has been happening for decades now and it has ruined us.

2️⃣) Being able to identify the worldview and ideological sentiments of an individual through their own words.
———————————————————

This is more important today than ever before due to the overwhelming amount of ideological influence that has bled into our communities. Certain figures are spreading their ideological influence, deliberately or non-deliberately. The only way one can pick up on ideological rhetoric is through understanding what the person intends by their words.

Language is key. It is how we communicate and express ourselves. To those who have studied any primer of manṭiq, you are all familiar with:

‎الإنسان حيوان ناطق
al-Insān ḥaywān nāṭiq

This roughly translates to:
A human is a rational/talking animal.

Words (alfādh) carry meanings (maʿānī), and therefore, every word has significance. But what we have witnessed over the decades is a deliberate attempt to destroy language, which in turn, destroys the path to rational thought and coherent communication.

Many words have become subject to ideological tampering and distortion. Many of them have become buzzwords for specific belief systems and worldviews of their respective ideology. These ideologies essentially hijack words that have inherently positive connotations, and by doing that, they are implicitly (or explicitly) labelling anyone who disagrees with their ideology as someone who is in opposition to this seemingly positive word, and is therefore advocating for the antithesis of that word (i.e. progression/regression, liberalism/fascism, feminism/misogyny).

Therefore, it is absolutely imperative that Muslims are able to recognize these terms and the way they are used within context to understand what exactly is being pushed, where an individual leans ideologically, and the worldview they are operating under.

If someone has both 1 and 2, they will be able to see through just about any ideological rhetoric they come across. If we emphasized these in our communities, and integrated them into our curriculums, we would have some very formidable Ṭullāb al-ʿIlm and Muslims would be invulnerable to these tactics of the enemies of Islām.

Regarding the Term 'Kayfiyyah' and Its Usage Among Scholars

Historically, some scholars of Kalām have employed the term 'Kayfiyyah' when discussing Allāh, while many others have explicitly rejected its application. This raises an intriguing question: how can scholars assert that Kayfiyyah, translated as modality, is impossible for Allāh and anthropomorphism, yet also claim that only Allāh knows His Kayfiyyah?

The reality is that the term 'Kayfiyyah' has various usages. It can refer to the modality and state of a thing, but it can also denote its reality, quiddity, and quality/description.

Below are two significant quotes. The first is by Imām Bāqillānī, elucidating the different intended meanings of this term. Following that is a quote by Qadhi Abu Bakr Ibn al-'Arabi demonstrating that even Kalām scholars would affirm that only Allāh knows the Kayfiyyah, clearly intending reality or description, and not anthropomorphic meanings.

Imām Bāqillānī writes:

"If it is asked, 'How is He?' It is said, if by Kayfiyyah you mean composition, form, and genus, then He has no form or genus that we can describe. And if by your question, 'How is He?' you mean upon which description is He? [Then we say] He is living, knowing, powerful, hearing, and seeing."

— Tamhīd al-Awā'il, 300

Qadhi Abu Bakr Ibn al-Arabi writes:

"It may also be that it is not interpreted, as Mālik and others have said: that istiwā’ is known, meaning its source in the language, and the Kayfiyyah that Allāh intended from the meanings that are possible is unknown. So, who can determine it?"

— ‘Āridat al-Ahwadhī li-Ibn al-‘Arabī [2/236]

The hatred scholars in the past generation like Sh. Abu Ghuddah and Sh. Sabuni received were due to their lifelong denial to submit to tyrants who practice dhulm against Muslims.

The hatred which Mufti Taqi and Sh. Qaradaghi are receiving is just a continuation of the same reason.

The term “Islamophobia” is nonsense.

1 - It is ideologically rooted in liberalism and secularism.
2 - It gives the impression that Muslims are weak, self-victimizing, and desperate for acceptance.
3 - Use of the term is an implicit acceptance of the morality and secular worldview of the kuffār.
4 - The term implies that it is wrong for kuffār to fear Islām.

I really shouldn’t need to elaborate further on any of these points.

‘Allāmah Zāhid al-Kawtharī writes in his article Ḥijāb al-Mar’ah (“The Ḥijāb of a Woman”):

“The one who speaks pretentiously about (the validity of) a woman’s judgeship in some cases does not comprehend that her ruling’s validity in them, according to some jurists, is coupled with her falling into sin. This is similar to how rulings in some cases involving legal stratagems are valid despite the one employing them being sinful. Thus, if a woman were to be appointed as a judge unjustly and beyond rightful limits, her judgment would be valid in some cases according to some jurists, while she would still be falling into sin by assuming the role of judge. This is akin to the validity of rulings in some cases involving legal stratagems being coupled with sin. Whoever imagines that the validity of a ruling negates sin has strayed far from understanding.” (Maqālāt al-Kawtharī, al-Maktabah al-Tawfīqiyyah, p.231)

Some of the reactions to this post show just how brainwashed a lot of you are and how weak your understanding of language truly is. This is precisely what I posted about a couple days ago 👇🏻.

https://t.me/Simsimiyyah/530

Spreading terms and slogans with ideologically loaded language is an extremely effective way to cause mass confusion and cognitive dissonance within any group. Combine this with decades of carefully planned and well-funded psy-op propaganda and we get our current circumstances. It is nothing short of brainwashing.

Go do some research on where the slogan “Islām means peace” actually came from. Not only is it not true, but it was pushed for a very specific reason, and judging by how the vast majority of Muslims in the west now think, it did exactly what they wanted it to do.
