1:02:23 Advice to the youth
Each person in this world is born into circumstances beyond their control and choice. Some in ease, others in hardship. Some advantaged, others disadvantaged. Each of us has a story, and each is a unique journey. Some are left with scars and traumas, others loss and grief, some in safety and protection, others survived wars and atrocities. From each, there are blessings hidden and disguised in suffering, others through afluency and opportunities. Each must identify both the blessings and tests they have and rise. Many people fail by jumping to judgments about others, not knowing their passed struggles and circumstances, instead of looking into their own hearts and Iman, their own shortcomings and weaknesses, and rather than assisting, advising with goodness and helping others to rise and heal.
Then there are those whom Allah brings a leader out of, a benefit to others through the hardships of life’s harsh lessons, to become a source of hope, healing and guidance to the vulnerable and troubled like them. Whomever Allah uses in the task of spreading His Message and helping others out of darkness, is a better gift than what the sun has risen upon.
This is a story of struggle, hardship, pain, grief, heartbreak, agony and survival, to a guidance from Allah from darkness to light, narrowness to vastness, loneliness to being part of an ummah, and from heartbreaking loss to gain and healing.
Join me in this rich, emotional and inspiring podcast with my dear brother in Islam Akhi Ayman as we journey through his life of darkness to light, to become on the road of inspiration and healing for thousands of hurting youth around the world.

توكل الله
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious and Most Merciful
وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بَعْضُهُمْ أَوْلِيَاءُ بَعْضٍ ۚ إِلَّا تَفْعَلُوهُ تَكُن فِتْنَةٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَفَسَادٌ كَبِيرٌ
And those who disbelieved are allies of one another. If you Muslims do not do so, that is to unite under the Khalifah, there will be fitnah on earth and great corruption. 8:73
Why are we Muslims not talking about reestablishing the power and control Allah SWT give us from the beginning? The command is to unite under one Khalifah.
The number one concern on the minds of the Muslims is the tragedy in Gazza. The destruction in Gazza is worse than that of Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined. The Zionist Israelis are the modern day Amelak, as they were a tribe from nation of the Israelites and their brutality in Gazza and West Bank is the evidence.
We have to listen to what Allah SWT is saying to us in the above verse and from the beginning.
"And Remember when your Lord said to the Angels, I am going place Khalifah on earth"…. 2: 30
You see the UN, which is controlled by USA, is dead body in the muddy water as every resolution passed by majority, is vetoed by USA. Which means we have to create a new balance of power in the world by creating United League of Muslim Nations. Which is to reestablish the Caliphate because we are children of Adam, peace be upon him .
"United League of Muslim Nations" under one Khalifah will be a strictly defensive Force with a quick response to any threat to the Ummah of Islam. OIC members can create a political wing, a military power unmatched to defend all oppression people in the world.
And it is easy to do it. It will be the Council of Muftis, from which they will choose the Khalifah. Under the Khalifah will be a seat for a Mufti from every country in world with 100,000 plus Muslim population as Islam is for entire World. From every municipality we will choose a representative till we have the Council of Muftis for that country with a Grand Mufti of that country to sit in the Council of Muftis under the Khalifah. All communication can be done remotely with everyone working from home. Most effective and real democratic way of governing where all decisions are made by the Council of Muftis but the Khalifah having the final say. Under the Khalifah, the "ULMN" will have its own army, navy and Air Force under one commander for defending the entire ummah. We already have the hardware from major Muslim countries. They just have to be relabeled "ULMN" when they are out to defend any part of the Ummah like removing the Mediterranean Sea blockade by Israelis. Move in from Egypt to clear Israeli army from Gazza, move in from Jordan to clear Israeli army and settlers from West Bank with well equiped army from 57 Muslim countries. The four letters "ULMN" will be enough to deter anyone from doing what is happening in Gazza today. But we have to be the Nation of Al Muttaqun for Allah SWT is saying now:
"You are the Best of People ever raised up for Mankind, enjoining what is Good, forbidding what is evil and believing in Allah SWT" …. Quran 3: 110
Then how can we go wrong when the fear of "ULMN" will overwhelm the hearts of our enemies?
That is what Islam is and we are Muslims to resolve every matter in a Peaceful manner, Insha Allah. Alhamdu Lillah.
If no one is willing to act as the acting Khalifah, I will be the acting Khalifah till one is chosen and I sincerely invite all Muslims to join me in this effort, for if we fail but we will never fail, we will still get one Hashanah for our intentions, Insha Allah.
Jazak Allah Khair
Your brother
Abu Saad
Acting Khalifah (as of the children of Adam, AS).

The Islamic Word *Salah (Salat) is the Second of the Five Pillars of Islam!
Representing the daily, obligatory & formal Worship performed by Muslims.
For instance it involves specific physical movements, such as:
– (bowing, prostrating) also recitations found in the Holy Qur'an.
While facing the Kaaba in Makkah ( in Saudi Arabia) aim to provide:
– a direct connection & praise & with Allah(swt)/God.
Hence respectively to maintain spiritual discipline.
…
Guidelines on the Key Aspects of Salah (as follows).
Starting with the obligation (which are performed Five times daily),
– obeyed by all Muslims (who have reached puberty).
Thus, praying Salah acts as a marker for the most regular, compulsory:
– action of faith.
Timing of the Five Daily Prayers (listed below).
1. Fajr (Pre-dawn).
2. Dhuhr (Midday).
3. Asr (Afternoon).
4. Maghrib (just after Sunset).
5. Isha (Night).
Following the structure which is comprised of units called *Rak'ah (cycles).
Counted by the actions while actively performing Salah/Prayer on mat(s).
For example this includes the *4 physical actions: (as follows).
1.Standing 2.Bowing 3.Prostrating 4. Sitting.
However before these (above actions are performed) the process of purification.
Must take place while praying and so all the Muslims perform wudu.
First by (ritual washing) to ensure cleanliness.
In retro speculation the significance of these actions/process serves:
– as a powerful reminder of faith.
Respectively, one/we will be questioned (on the first action of a person),
– in anticipation of the day coming known (in Arabic as) *Yawm al-qiyamah.
"The Day of Judgment" which is perceived (in Islamic literacy) as:
– the day of reckoning where one's/our prayer/praises will be accounted for.
While also serving as a, daily, intimate communication with Allah(swt).
Therefore , also considering individual prayer (du'a) is important,
Salah is the structured in a way which means that it is collective,
– and at the same time a mandatory ritual. More important is the fact:
– that it fosters solidarity among Muslims worldwide.
In Heinz-sight praying Salah is a way to ask and to seek forgiveness:
From Allah(swt) and also to send Salawat to His(swt) Messenger(s) PBUH.

Constructive insights
