He called himself El Hadji Babacar. A noble name, one that evokes faith, piety, and respect, reminding us of those honored to have completed the pilgrimage to Mecca. But behind this dignified appearance, accusations point to a man who turned humiliation and blackmail into weapons to defame, destroy, and profit. Assuming the name of the famous Senegalese thinker Kocc Barma, he allegedly created a harmful system based on collecting and distributing intimate videos. What he did—and what others enabled—raises a painful question: where have the values of our Muslim society gone?

This scandal reveals an even deeper malaise. Men, hurt by divorce, sent videos of their ex-wives to this blackmailer, driven by vengeance and hatred. Women did the same. Young boys forced their girlfriends to send photos under the guise of love, then threatened to expose everything if they broke up. Sometimes, these threats were carried out. It is no longer external enemies destroying our homes, but those who swear love and loyalty, yet betray at the first conflict.

In all this, one truth stands clear: no matter how well you think you know or love someone, you must never, ever send intimate photos or videos through a phone or the internet. Because one day, that image can become a weapon against you. And on that day, even your tears will not erase the damage caused.

The Islam we practice—or claim to practice—teaches us modesty, discretion, respect for privacy, and human dignity. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: “Modesty is part of faith.” And Allah has clearly forbidden spying, gossip, and slander. Yet, our phones have become channels for the forbidden. Our WhatsApp shares spread indecency. Our clicks encourage vice. And our silence makes all this normal.

It is time to stop. To reflect. To fear—not the authorities or social media, but the One who sees all, hears all, and will hold us accountable for everything. Because what you share in secret in this life will follow you openly in the hereafter. And what you cover with modesty, Allah will cover with mercy.

Each of us must become a shield against this corruption: refuse to share, delete received videos, educate our children, speak in mosques, warn in schools, alert families. We must break this cycle of shame, revenge, and unhealthy buzz.

The Devil rejoices when a Muslim humiliates another. He is pleased when the honor of a sister or brother is thrown to the dogs of the web. He wins every time we remain passive. But we can still close the doors to him. There is still time to return to our values. Time to repent.

Let each of us ask: if I died today, what would my phone say about me? What will Allah say about my shares, my clicks, my silences?

May Allah purify our hearts, our homes, and make us sincere believers. Amen.

In the 10th year of the Prophetic mission (around 619 CE), the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ experienced one of the most painful periods of his life. This year, called Am al-Huzn – the Year of Sorrow – was marked by the loss of two essential people in his life: his beloved wife Khadijah bint Khuwaylid (RA) and his protective uncle Abu Talib.

Two losses, one immense trial
Khadijah (RA) was not simply the wife of the Prophet ﷺ. She was the first to believe in him, the first Muslim, and his greatest source of moral, emotional, and financial support. She comforted him during the first revelation and constantly encouraged him in the face of persecution.

Her death broke the heart of the Prophet ﷺ. He said of her:

« She believed in me when everyone else denied me. She supported me with her wealth when everyone else abandoned me. »
(Hadith reported by Ahmad)

A few months after Khadijah, his uncle Abu Talib passed away. Although he never converted to Islam, he had been the Prophet’s ﷺ main protector against the attacks of the Quraysh. His death opened the way for more violent and direct persecution against the Prophet ﷺ.

After these two losses, the Quraysh became even more aggressive. The Prophet ﷺ found himself isolated in Mecca, without family support or a companion in life. He then tried to bring his message to Taif, where he was violently rejected and wounded.

This period was so painful that Allah granted him a spiritual consolation: the Night Journey and Ascension (Isra wa Miraj) – a divine miracle to strengthen his heart.

In today’s world, where many Muslims face loss, trials, or periods of abandonment, the Year of Sorrow remains a powerful source of inspiration:

Losing a loved one is not a punishment, but a step on the journey of faith.
The Prophet ﷺ endured abandonment, loneliness, and pain, but he never doubted Allah’s plan.
Patience (sabr), steadfastness (istiqamah), and trust in God (tawakkul) are the spiritual pillars we must cultivate.
The Year of Sorrow was followed by glorious events: Isra wa Miraj, the Hijrah to Medina, the birth of the organized Muslim community, and the great victories of Islam.

Thus, this trial was also a turning point. It teaches us that every pain holds wisdom, and that true faith is affirmed in adversity.

Since October 2023, the Gaza Strip has been enduring one of the bloodiest conflicts of our time. Under relentless bombardment, civilian infrastructure collapses, hospitals overflow, and children’s cries echo through the rubble. Over 38,000 people have been killed — the majority being women and children — according to Gaza’s Ministry of Health. But beyond the death toll lies another tragedy: the systematic destruction of the Palestinian family.

Israeli airstrikes target residential areas, schools, mosques, hospitals — even shelters where displaced families have gathered. Entire families are wiped out in a single strike. It’s not just homes that are being destroyed, but entire lineages, generations, and family stories.

UNICEF has described this as the worst humanitarian crisis of the 21st century for children. Thousands have become orphans, injured, or traumatized for life. Family bonds — normally a refuge during war — are being shattered.

Islam sees the family as the foundation of society. It is built on love, compassion, and mutual responsibility. The Qur’an says:

“And among His signs is that He created for you spouses from among yourselves so that you may find tranquility in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy.”
(Surah Ar-Rum, 30:21)

This sacred bond is what the bombings in Gaza seek to destroy. It is no longer just about killing individuals, but about dismantling the social and spiritual structure of the Palestinian people.

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“Each of you is a shepherd, and each of you is responsible for his flock.”
(Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim)

Parents are entrusted with the sacred duty to protect, feed, and raise their children. In Gaza, this right is being cruelly stripped away. Mothers are giving birth without anesthesia; fathers are burying their children with their bare hands. Islam views the inability to fulfill these parental duties not just as a tragedy, but a severe violation of divine order.

Islam teaches that the loss of a child, a parent, or a home is among the heaviest trials — but also an opportunity for spiritual elevation through sabr (patience).

“Give glad tidings to the patient — those who, when calamity strikes them, say, ‘Indeed, we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.’”
(Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:155–156)

Many families in Gaza embody this prophetic example. Despite their pain, they remain firm in faith, make duʿāʾ, and refuse to surrender their dignity.

What’s happening in Gaza is not just a geopolitical conflict — it is an assault on the very foundations of humanity, and on what Islam holds most sacred: family, compassion, and justice.

As members of the Ummah, we have a duty to:

• Support Gaza through prayer, charity, and raising awareness.
• Preserve our own families by strengthening the sacred bonds the modern world seeks to weaken.
• Educate our children about solidarity, justice, and human dignity.

Let us remember the words of the Prophet ﷺ:

“The Ummah is like a single body: when one limb suffers, the entire body feels the pain.”
(Sahih Muslim)

🌍 A Divided Ummah Facing the Same Pain

Today, rising tensions between Israel and Iran, against the backdrop of the war in Palestine, are exposing a deep rift within the Muslim Ummah. While Gaza is under siege and Al-Quds (Jerusalem) is suffering, Muslim unity is nowhere to be found.
Iran, a Shia-majority country, presents itself as a supporter of the Palestinian cause, while some Sunni-led governments remain silent, neutral, or even normalize ties with Israel.
The Sunni-Shia division, rooted in history and fueled by politics, is weakening our solidarity at a time when the Muslim world should be united as one body.

📖 Islam Forbids Division

Allah ﷻ says:

« And hold firmly to the rope of Allah all together and do not become divided. »
(Surah 3, verse 103)

And also:

« Indeed this, your Ummah, is one single Ummah, and I am your Lord, so worship Me. »
(Surah 21, verse 92)

The Prophet ﷺ said:

« The believers, in their love and compassion for one another, are like a single body: if one part suffers, the whole body suffers with it. »
(Bukhari & Muslim)

Yet today, the cries of Gaza do not awaken every part of that body. Why? Because internal divisions have drowned our brotherhood.

⚠️ A Division That Benefits the Enemy

While Muslims remain divided, the enemy advances.
Israel does not fear Sunnis or Shias—it fears a united Ummah. Foreign powers exploit sectarian differences to divide and conquer.
Governments, whether Sunni or Shia, often use religion for political gain, and this harms the Palestinian cause and the image of Islam as a whole.

✡️ Not All Jews Support Israel

It’s important to remember: this is not a war between Muslims and Jews.
Many practicing Jews openly oppose the war in Palestine.

Groups like Neturei Karta, a community of ultra-Orthodox anti-Zionist Jews, state:

« The State of Israel has no right to exist according to the Torah. Zionism is a political ideology, not Judaism. »

They regularly protest in cities like New York, London, and Paris, holding signs that say:

« Not in our name »
« Zionism ≠ Judaism »
« Free Palestine »

This proves that the conflict is political, colonial, and ideological, not a religious war.
The real battle is between justice and oppression, truth and falsehood—not between Islam and Judaism.

✅ What Muslims Must Do

1. Reject hate speech between Sunnis and Shias.
2. Focus on the real enemy: occupation, oppression, and injustice.
3. Refuse to let politics manipulate our faith.
4. Respect all sincere believers, and oppose all forms of tyranny.
5. Work toward unity, through knowledge, faith, and justice.

🤲 One Front, One Cause

Palestine reflects the state of the Ummah: wounded, divided, yet still standing.
In the face of Israeli aggression and the confusion of Sunni, Shia, Jewish, and Christian identities, Islam calls us to justice—not hatred.

Let us not allow sectarianism to rob us of our shared duty.
Let us not confuse Judaism with Zionism, nor Shiism with hostility.
Let us unite for truth, dignity, and the liberation of the oppressed.

« O you who believe! Stand firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah—even if it be against yourselves… And do not let the hatred of a people prevent you from being just. »
(Surah 5, verse 8)

Today, Palestine is going through a lot of pain: war, injustice, and suffering of innocent people. Many Muslims ask: Is this a sign of the end of times? Is there a connection with the Dajjāl, the false messiah who will come before the end of the world?

👁️ Who is the Dajjāl?

The Dajjāl is a very dangerous man who will appear at the end of time. He will pretend to be a prophet, then claim to be God. He will perform fake miracles to mislead people.

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:

“Since the time of Adam, there has been no greater trial than that of the Dajjāl.”
(Authentic Hadith – Muslim)

📖 What Does the Qur’an Say About Him?

The name « Dajjāl » does not appear in the Qur’an, but Allah speaks about liars and those who claim to be divine. For example:

“The Messiah (Īsā, Jesus) would never be too proud to be a servant of Allah.”
(Surah 4, verse 172)

This shows that Jesus is not God, unlike what the Dajjāl will falsely claim.

🕌 What Is the Link With Palestine?

According to many sayings of the Prophet ﷺ, the Dajjāl will not be able to enter three cities: Makkah, Madinah, and Jerusalem (Bayt al-Maqdis). This shows that Palestine is a blessed and protected place.

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“The Dajjāl will not be able to enter Makkah, Madinah, or Bayt al-Maqdis.”
(Authentic Hadith)

This is why Jerusalem is very important in Islam and is a place of spiritual resistance.

⚠️ Signs of the Dajjāl: Similarities With Today?

The Prophet ﷺ said that before the Dajjāl comes, there will be lies and confusion everywhere:

“Before the Dajjāl, there will be years of deception: the liar will be believed, and the truthful will be called a liar.”
(Hadith – Ibn Mājah)

This sounds very much like what we see in the media today, with lies about what’s happening in Palestine and honest voices being silenced.

🙏 What Should We Do?

The Prophet ﷺ gave us advice to protect ourselves:

1. Read the first 10 verses of Surah Al-Kahf every Friday for protection from the Dajjāl.

“Whoever memorizes the first ten verses of Surah Al-Kahf will be protected from the Dajjāl.”
(Hadith – Muslim)

2. Say this du‘ā (supplication) in your daily prayers:

اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ وَمِنْ فِتْنَةِ الْمَسِيحِ الدَّجَّالِ

Allâhoumma innî a‘oûdhou bika wa min fitnati-l-Masîhi-d-Dajjâl

“O Allah, I seek refuge in You… from the trial of the false messiah (Dajjāl).”

💡 Conclusion

The crisis in Palestine reminds us that the world is moving closer to the end times. The Dajjāl will come with lies and injustice. Palestine, especially Jerusalem, is a symbol of truth and faith during this test.

Let us pray for our brothers and sisters in Palestine, read the Qur’an, strengthen our faith, and prepare ourselves by staying close to Allah.

Eid al-Adha (also known as Eid al-Kabir) is a time of joy, generosity, and spirituality. It commemorates the obedience of Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him), who was willing to sacrifice his son for the sake of Allah. This celebration is a reminder for Muslims to renew their faith, trust in Allah, and solidarity with others.

However, in today’s world, Eid has also become a source of social pressure, especially for newly married couples. Some go into serious debt just to buy an expensive ram, luxurious clothes, or to host extravagant gatherings — all to please others. Yet, Islam teaches us moderation, financial wisdom, and dignity without ostentation.

The Spiritual Meaning of Sacrifice

The Qurbān (sacrifice) of Eid is not a contest of who buys the biggest or most expensive animal. It is an act of worship meant to bring one closer to Allah.

Allah says in the Qur’an:

“It is neither their meat nor their blood that reaches Allah, but it is your piety that reaches Him.”
— Surah Al-Hajj, 22:37
Phonetic: « Lan yanāla l-lāha luḥūmuhā wa-lā dimāuhā wa-lākin yanāluhū t-taqwā minkum »

👉 This shows that sincerity and intention are more valuable than the amount spent.

Eid and the Responsibilities of a Married Couple

In marriage, financial management is a shared responsibility. One of the couple’s priorities is to build economic stability. Unfortunately, many families or young spouses feel the need to « prove » themselves by spending beyond their means during Eid — even if it means taking out loans.

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ warned:

“Whoever incurs a debt with no intention of repaying it will come on the Day of Judgment as a thief.”
(Sahih al-Bukhari)

📌 Going into unnecessary debt for the sake of appearances or social pressure is blameworthy in Islam.

Moderation: A Prophetic Value

The Prophet ﷺ lived simply, even during festive occasions. He never demanded more than what was available.

Allah says:

“Do not be wasteful. Indeed, the wasteful are brothers of the devils.”
— Surah Al-Isrā, 17:26-27
Phonetic: « Wa lā tubadh-dhir tabdhīran – Inna l-mubadh-dhirīna kānū ikh’wāna sh-shayāṭīn »

✅ It is better to:

• Buy a ram according to your actual means
• Avoid sacrificing if you cannot afford it (it is a highly recommended Sunnah, not obligatory)
• Share a ram with other families
• Celebrate Eid simply but joyfully

💡 4. How to Avoid Debt During Eid?

Here are a few practical tips, especially for married couples:

1. Plan in advance: Save small amounts throughout the year
2. Stay modest: Wear clean and decent clothes without extravagance
3. Ignore social pressure: Allah’s opinion matters more than people’s
4. Focus on worship: Eid is about faith, not consumerism

🤝 5. True Joy in Marriage During Eid

The happiness of a couple is not found in impressing others, but in divine blessing (barakah), peace, and shared spirituality. Celebrating Eid together, according to one’s means and with sincerity toward Allah, strengthens the bond between spouses and increases the blessings in the home.

Eid al-Adha is a golden opportunity to get closer to Allah, not to fall into debt or waste. A Muslim couple should approach this day with gratitude, simplicity, and wisdom. Rather than spending to impress others, it’s better to invest in love, faith, and patience.

“And those who, when they spend, are neither extravagant nor stingy, but hold a balance between those (extremes).”
— Surah Al-Furqān, 25:67
Phonetic: « Wa l-ladhīna idhā anfaqū lam yus’rifū wa lam yaqturū wa kāna bayna dhālika qawāmā »

(Impotence, Lack of Desire, and Lawful Solutions)

Sexuality in Islam is neither a taboo nor a shameful topic, as long as it is approached with modesty, ethics, and within the lawful framework of marriage. Among the realities faced by some Muslim couples are sexual disorders: impotence, lack of desire, pain during intercourse, etc. These issues can cause marital tension, frustration, or even spiritual doubt. Islam acknowledges these situations and offers responses that are compatible with faith, psychology, and medicine.

📌 1. The Importance of Intimate Life in Marriage
Sexual intimacy is one of the fundamental marital rights in Islam. The Prophet ﷺ said:

“In the sexual act of one of you, there is a charity (sadaqa).”
— Sahih Muslim

This hadith shows that lawful sexuality is not only permissible but also spiritually rewarded. Unjustly refusing intimacy to one’s spouse can lead to discord and even sin. This highlights the importance of preserving this intimate bond, even when it is affected by difficulties.

🩺 2. Sexual Impotence (al-‘ajz al-jinsī)
➤ Definition:
Impotence refers to the persistent inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for satisfactory sexual intercourse.

➤ Islamic Perspective:
Impotence is not a shame, but a trial. Islam encourages medical consultation and permits the use of lawful treatments (medication, behavioral therapy, herbal remedies).

The Qur’an says:

“So ask the people of knowledge if you do not know.”
— Surah An-Nahl, 16:43

👉 This includes health specialists when the issue is physical or psychological.

➤ Lawful Solutions:

• Medical treatment (with halal-certified medications)
• Recognized natural remedies (ginger, honey, fenugreek…)
• Healthy diet and physical activity
• Psychological counseling for emotional or stress-related causes
• Ruqya (Qur’anic recitation for issues linked to whisperings or black magic)

💔 3. Lack of Sexual Desire (futūr jinsī)
➤ Common Causes:

• Fatigue, stress, hormonal imbalances
• Marital conflicts
• Depression or anxiety
• Past trauma or psychological blocks

➤ Islamic Approach:
The Prophet ﷺ encouraged tenderness, gentle speech, and emotional preparation for intimacy. He said:

“Let none of you fall upon his wife like an animal; let him first speak to her, kiss her…”
— Reported by Al-Daraqutni

👉 Foreplay and tenderness play a crucial role in rekindling desire.

➤ Practical Advice:

• Open communication within the couple
• Mental and physical preparation (cleanliness, fragrance, relaxation)
• Reading Islamic marital advice together
• Avoiding pornography and distractions that weaken natural desire
• Making specific du‘ās (see below)

🙏 4. Spiritual Solutions and Recommended Du‘ās
➤ Du‘ā to Improve Marital Relations:

“Rabbana hab lana min azwajina wa dhurriyyatina qurrata a‘yunin waj‘alna lil-muttaqina imama”
“Our Lord, grant us from among our spouses and offspring comfort to our eyes and make us an example for the righteous.”
— Surah Al-Furqan, 25:74

➤ Ruqya (Spiritual Relief through Qur’anic Recitation):

• Surah Al-Fātiha
• Ayat al-Kursī (2:255)
• The last three Surahs: Al-Ikhlās, Al-Falaq, An-Nās
• The supplication of Prophet Ayyūb عليه السلام:

“Rabbi innī massaniyaḍ-ḍurru wa anta arḥamur-rāḥimīn”
“O my Lord, harm has touched me, and You are the Most Merciful of the merciful.”
— Surah Sād, 38:41

💬 5. When to Consult a Specialist?
Islam encourages seeking remedies through lawful means and not suffering in silence. The Prophet ﷺ said:

“There is no disease that Allah has created, except that He has also created its remedy.”
— Sahih al-Bukhari

👉 If the issue persists, it is highly recommended to consult:

• A medical doctor (urologist, gynecologist, endocrinologist)
• A Muslim therapist or one who respects Islamic values
• An imam or marital counselor for spiritual support

🤝 6. The Role of the Spouse: Patience, Listening, and Support
Islam encourages couples to show compassion, mercy, and understanding. Sexual intimacy is not just a physical act but an expression of love and the tranquility (sukūn) that marriage brings.

The Qur’an says:

“And He placed between you affection and mercy.”
— Surah Ar-Rūm, 30:21

Sexual disorders should not be a source of shame, but a trial to face with faith, knowledge, and wisdom. Islam offers a balanced framework that combines spirituality, compassion, and openness to science. Seeking lawful solutions, maintaining open communication, and pursuing both spiritual and medical support can help restore harmony in the couple.

As Eid approaches, many Muslims face a growing temptation: taking out a bank loan to cover festive expenses. Preparing meals, and giving gifts to loved ones—these costs push some to consider credit. But what does Islam say about this?

The Prohibition of Riba (Bank Interest)

Islam strictly forbids riba (usury or interest), which is considered unjust exploitation and a disruption of economic balance. Allah says in the Qur’an:

« O you who have believed, fear Allah and give up what remains [due to you] of interest, if you should be believers. And if you do not, then be informed of a war [against you] from Allah and His Messenger. »
(Surat Al-Baqarah, 2:278-279)

The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) also cursed those who engage in, record, or witness riba-based transactions. This consensus clearly shows that bank interest is forbidden, and Muslims should avoid it, even under financial pressure.

Islamic Alternatives to Bank Loans

Faced with this dilemma, Muslims who wish to adhere to their faith can consider several solutions:

1. Saving and Planning Ahead
   • Setting aside money in advance to avoid relying on credit.
2. Interest-Free Loans (Qard Hassan)
   • In the spirit of Islamic solidarity, a relative or an organization may offer an interest-free loan to someone in need.
3. Islamic Banking
   • Many financial institutions offer Sharia-compliant financing based on profit-sharing or investment models, such as Murabaha or Mudaraba.
4. Living Within One’s Means
   • Eid is a time for spirituality and togetherness, not excessive spending. It is best to maintain a simple lifestyle within one’s financial limits.

Eid, a Time for Faith, Not Debt

Eid should remain a spiritual and family-oriented celebration, free from financial burdens and unlawful debts. Instead of giving in to the temptation of interest-based loans, it is wiser to seek alternatives that align with Islamic principles and practice mindful spending.

May Allah make this Eid blessed and debt-free for all Muslims. Eid Mubarak!
