Islamic Ethics in Tech #38: Mujahadah (Spritual Striving)

Mujahadah (مجاهدة) is the daily, invisible war against your own lower self.

The word comes from the root j-h-d the same root as jihad. But the Prophet ﷺ called this one the greater jihad:

"The mujahid is the one who strives against his nafs in obedience to Allah." Jami' at-Tirmidhi 1621

Mujāhadah in tech is choosing integrity over shortcuts, resisting normalized wrong, and keeping your intention sincere even when no one is watching.

Is your daily work a reflection of your inner striving for Allah?

One of the highlights from our Ramadan activities was the “Guess the Quran” challenge and we still love thinking about the energy and consistency it brought to the channel.

A special shoutout to those who really stood out:

🏆 Eman M.
🏆 Muna A.
🏆 Sebrin A.

Your effort didn’t go unnoticed, and it was beautiful to see your connection with the Quran throughout the challenge. May Allah continue to increase you in knowledge and barakah. ✨

Each of you received 4GB internet as a small appreciation 🎁

And to everyone who joined in honestly, you made it what it was. More meaningful things coming your way inshaAllah 🌙

Islamic Ethics in Tech #39: Ta’awun (Mutual Cooperation)

Ta’awun is intentional, mutual help toward goodness rooted in consciousness of Allah.

Allah says in the Quran:

"And cooperate in goodness and righteousness, but do not cooperate in sin and transgression." Qur’an 5:2

Tech is often competitive. Knowledge is hidden behind NDAs. Seniors guard their expertise. Developers take credit alone for work built on many others’ efforts.

Ta’awun reminds us that technology work is not just “production” it is partnership in shaping human experience.

Are the ways you collaborate reflecting truly cooperation toward what Allah loves?

#13 Sahaba Stories for Modern Hearts: Lessons from Salman al-Farsi (RA)

Many think solutions only come from the expected one, Salman (RA) proved that wisdom has no borders. He was a foreigner, yet his idea saved Madinah from destruction.
The Prophet ﷺ said:

"Salman is from us, the Ahl al-Bayt." (Ibn Hisham)

An army of 10,000 Confederates marched to wipe out the Muslims. Madinah was defenseless. Panic set in. But Salman, a Persian, suggested a foreign tactic: digging a massive trench. The Arabs had never seen this. The Prophet ﷺ didn't dismiss him as an "outsider." He listened. They dug the trench, and the enemy cavalry couldn't cross. A simple idea from a seeker of truth saved the entire community.

Lessons:
🔹Listen to ideas from everyone; wisdom is lost property of the believer.
🔹Your unique background is your strength.
🔹Diversity isn't just beautiful; it's necessary for survival.
