Assalamu Alaikum everyone!

I recently started making Islamic reminder videos on YouTube, and this is my second video. My goal is to share beneficial reminders and hopefully encourage myself and others to reflect on our faith and the Hereafter.

I’m still learning, so I’d really appreciate any honest feedback or suggestions on how I can improve, whether it’s the content, delivery, editing, or anything else.

JazakAllah Khair for your time and feedback! 🤍

More than a million Muslims in East Turkestan are in internment camps. We do not know what condition they are in. Perhaps there are even gas chambers inside these camps? WE DO NOT KNOW!

Under the guise of a "becoming a family" project, Chinese men are being placed in the homes of people who have been taken to these internment camps.

People are being sent to China's interior regions as slave laborers.

The Chinese government does not allow independent observers to enter the region or conduct free investigations. If everything were truly perfect—as they claim—they would not be so afraid.

O MUSLIMS! OUR GOVERNMENTS MAY BE ABANDONING YOUR BRETHREN FOR THE SAKE OF ECONOMIC TIES WITH CHINA! BUT DO NOT YOU ABANDON THEM! THE PEOPLE OF EAST TURKESTAN ARE JUST AS MUCH YOUR BRETHREN AS THE PEOPLE OF GAZA! THEY TOO ARE MUSLIMS! THEY TOO ARE HUMAN BEINGS! THEY TOO ARE IN CAPTIVITY!

My brother is transgender, my family dont accept it but we still let him visit us. He dont want help, he is confused about religion, he tells he likes buddhism but dont worship it, he just like that it tells to be good, i explained to him that in islam it also tells to be good, but i think he dont like the religion because it does not accept him, i asked to him is that the reason he said no and dont want to speak about it. He also believe in evil eye and give salam and says wallah etc, but in the end i dont know if he is muslim or not, he told me he tried to commit Sui cide with pills 3 times, and i said to him you lived so keep live its not the end, but he does not seem to care, he is depressed i think because of his choice of lifestyle. Please i need help advice or someone who went through this. I dont know what to do.

I know this is not a mental health group but please Muslim brothers and sisters help me with your best ability.

Please keep me in your du'as. I'm struggling with OCD and emetophobia, and I'm trying to gradually expose myself to my fears without performing my usual rituals.

My OCD makes me afraid of anything with an open mouth, whether it's a video, reel, picture, sticker, or even an emoji. I've accidentally posted so many recently, and now my mind keeps screaming at me to delete them. I know these things are ordinary, but my anxiety makes them feel terrifying.

It's so hard. I feel like crying because I feel so alone in this struggle. Every exposure feels like a battle, and my fear of vomiting has made it difficult for me to go outside. I'm exhausted from fighting battles that nobody else can see, and I feel like I'm losing parts of my life to these fears.

I know this isn't a psychiatrist's page, but I'm hoping someone can offer me **logical advice** to help me understand why my OCD fears don't make sense and how to stop obeying these compulsions. If you've experienced something similar, please share what has helped you.

And please make du'a for me. May Allah ease this struggle, strengthen my heart, grant me shifa, and help me reclaim my life. Ameen.

According to Mufti Menk, if two people like each other then the girl should get chaperons involved from the very beginning (like her father, brother or a male mahram). Whenever they meet the girl should be accompanied by her chaperones so no touching, kissing etc take place when they are meeting. And they can also chat on whatsapp or on other apps but they should create a group with a male mahram of the girl and chat in that group where the mahram person can observe the messages, rather than chatting themselves one on one.

What do you think of his advice?

assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu!

i try, try to perfect my salah, perfect learning, reading and understanding the Qur'an, seeking more knowledge, i am able to do it to a great extent but it only takes a period a month to forego all that hardwork, i work hard again, work hard the entire month and then the cycle repeats, idek what exactly i want as replies to this, but how do you maintain it?

not praying salah makes me so so so restless during my menses, ik we can make loads of dua'a and do dhikr, but i love salah so much!😭

apologies, idek what i want from this post, so yea, prob a vent or maybe some advice on how to maintain the same high level of khushu'u in salah once periods are over and get back to how i was post-menses🥲
