How I Left Porn for Allah|An Islamic Recovery Guide Introduction – The Shame of Sin vs the Sweetness of Leaving It for Allah There was a time in my life when I was only inches away from selling my Lord and His Hereafter for a few moments of forbidden pleasure — a step that could have dragged me into prostitution. A click, a glance, a touch — and it could have been over. The temptation was strong — the allure of semi-nude women who stirred my lust to disobey my Lord and commit masturbation and shameful deeds. I was on the verge of trading my Lord and my Hereafter for a fleeting, shameful sin. But then Allah intervened. He forbade me from shamelessness and reminded me of His command: “Indeed, Allah commands justice, good conduct, and giving to relatives, and forbids shamelessness (fahshā’), evil deeds (munkar), and transgression (baghy). He admonishes you that perhaps you will be reminded.” (Qur’an 16:90) Allah promised something far greater than the temporary pleasure of this world — t...

  A famous pastime from the Srimad Bhagavatam The story of Krishna stealing the Gopis' clothes (Vastraharana) Introduction A famous pastime from the Srimad Bhagavatam(The highest book of hindus), where the young Krishna took the Gopis' garments while they bathed naked in the Yamuna River, climbing a Kadamba tree with them. The Story The Setup: The Gopis (cowherd women) of Vrindavan, deeply devoted to Krishna, were observing a vow to have Him as their husband, as described in Vedic texts.

The Demand: He told the shivering Gopis they must come out of the water, one by one, with their hands covering themselves or in simple terms covering their Private part, and offer obeisance (bow down) to Him before He would return their garments. The Lesson: The Gopis, though initially shy, eventually complied, demonstr...

The First Miracle of Jesus In Islam vs Christianity

Image
The First Miracle of Jesus: Islam vs. Christianity Zhanna Millionnaya | Dreamstime.com   Introduction In Islam, the first miracle of Jesus after his miraculous birth was the defense of the honor and purity of his mother, Mary , while he was still an infant in the cradle. This event is clearly mentioned in the Holy Qur’an. Mary was accused by her people of committing adultery or illicit relations and of bearing Jesus through such an act. 27. Then she brought him to her people, carrying him. They said, “O Mary, you have certainly done an unprecedented thing.” 28. “O sister of Aaron, your father was not a man of evil, nor was your mother unchaste.” (Al-Qur’an 19:27–28) When Mary pointed to the infant, the Qur’an states that Jesus spoke miraculously, saying: 30. “Indeed, I am the servant of Allah. He has given me the Scripture and made me a prophet.” 31. “And He has made me blessed wherever I am and has enjoined upon me prayer and zakāh as long as I remain alive.” 32. “And He has ...

From Idols of Stone to Idols of Systems

Image
  photo by unsplash.com From Idols of Stone to Idols of Systems An Era Where Ṣalāh Is Delayed, Faith Is Negotiated, and True Success Is Forgotten Every era has its trial. Every generation has its idol. The tragedy of our time is not that people stopped worshipping —but that they no longer recognize what they worship . When Livelihood Was Owned by Kings and Priests In the ancient world, livelihood was centralized and controlled . Kings owned land and markets Priests controlled marriage, burial, and legitimacy Tribes were employment, protection, and survival Leaving the official religion meant: Economic boycott Social death Hunger or exile This is why many people recognized Islam as truth , yet hesitated to accept it. They said: “If we follow the guidance with you, we will be snatched away from our land.” (Qur’an 28:57) Their fear was real.Faith endangered existence itself . Allah answered them: “Have We not established for them a secure sanctuary to which fruits of all kinds are bro...

Can a Muslim woman wear jeans, leggings, or shorts in Islam? Short answer ✅ Yes , a Muslim woman may wear jeans, leggings, or shorts in front of her husband only . ❌ It is ḥarām to wear such clothing in front of other than her husband including mahrams(blood or breast fed relatives) let alone non-mahrams. Islam does not prohibit clothing by name , but by conditions of modesty (ḥijāb) . 1️⃣ Clothing inside the home (with maḥrams) Allah says: “And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts and not expose their adornment except that which [necessarily] appears thereof and to wrap [a portion of] their headcovers over their chests and not expose their adornment [i.e., beauty] except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers, their brothers' sons, their sisters' sons, their women, that which their right hands possess [i.e., slaves], or those male attendants having no...

From a Man Who Could Not Read — To the Messenger of Allah Who Taught the World

Image
  Photo by Unsplash.com From a Man Who Could Not Read — To the Messenger of Allah Who Taught the World The Rise of Islam: Honor Written by Allah In the beginning, we were a people forgotten by history. No science. No libraries. Only tribes fighting in the desert. Yes — we were once illiterate. And our Prophet was al-Ummi , the unlettered Prophet. Allah Himself honors him: “The Messenger, the unlettered Prophet.” — Qur’an 7:157 He was not a king. He owned no palaces or treasures. Yet he is the most honored servant of Allah: “Blessed is He who sent down the Criterion upon His servant.” — Qur’an 25:1 We had no power, no empire, no wealth — but Allah was and is ever sufficient for us . The Night Everything Changed When creation needed guidance again, Allah sent the leader of the angels — Jibrīl — to the Cave of Hira. He embraced the Prophet and commanded: “Read.” The Prophet  replied: “I am not one who reads.” Then, by the command of Allah, the first revelation descended — words ...

❖ The Ruling on Ḥalālah in Islam

The Ruling on Ḥalālah in Islam Introduction   Marrying a man with a pre-planned intention of divorce in order to make a woman lawful again for her first husband—after he has issued three divorces—is ḥarām, deceptive, and an invented practice outside the Sharīʿah of the Final Prophet of Allah  Allah says: “If he divorces her (for the third time), she is not lawful for him afterward until she marries another husband.”(Surah al-Baqarah 2:230) This verse refers to a real and lawful marriage, not a temporary arrangement designed to bypass Allah’s limits. The Role of Mahr and Responsibility In Islam, mahr is not a fee or a tool for manipulation, but a mandatory obligation given by the husband with sincere intention of a lawful and lasting marriage. It symbolizes honor, responsibility, and commitment. Allah ﷻ says: “And give the women their mahr graciously.”(Surah al-Nisāʾ 4:4) Allah has made men guardians and maintainers (qawwāmūn) over women due to the responsibilities He placed up...
