Be mindful of Allaah in every moment. Make every moment meaningful.
I strongly dislike this idea that progression in countries is measured by their imitation of western society.

A Poet said,
“And if you are stricken with calamity then remain patient upon it,
Patiently perservering for indeed Allah knows best your situation,.
And if you complain to a child of Aadam then certainly,
it is as if we are complaining about the Merciful to those who cannot show mercy.”

3) Blind following after the proofs - which oppose the statements of the one he blind follows - have been made clear.”

One simple statement. It could be interpreted in many ways. It also could be misinterpreted in so many ways. SubhanAllah. What scares me is that those who have misinterpreted the statement could lead others into believing the person’s flawed argument. Flawed because it was being understood wrongly.
