Note: Sharing Lessons Learned During This Blessed Month Ramadan 1446H

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم 
🗒️ Sharing some lessons learned from yesterday's Iftaar gathering (on the 11th day of Ramadan here in the Philippines):
1💎 Always purify your niyyah / intention for Allah's sake before doing good deeds whether they are waajib/fardh, Sunnah, mustahabb/recommended and halal/permissible, so 
Inn-sha-Allah if you were not able to achieve or complete certain tasks you intended to do, you still get rewarded for your sincere intention. Sister Jannah Umm Muhammad wanted us to have a small halaqa of exchanging some Islamic reminders and beneficial advice but QaddarAllahu wa maa shaa-a fa'al we couldn't have a proper group discussion because the other sisters, including the wife of the owner of Darussalam Islamic Bookstore here in Davao city and wife of one of the managers of Turkish Kebab Restaurant, arrived a few minutes before the Adhaan of Salat Al-Maghreb then many were busy having their Iftaar meals then prayed etc. 
SubhanAllah Al-'Atheem. It's scary how time nowadays goes by so quickly. Almost two weeks of this blessed month Ramadan have already passed by. Continue doing your best for Allah's sake in collecting as many rewards as you can through increasing acts of worship including reading more Ayaat verses from the Noble Qur'an, forwarding more Islamic reminders and praying more Sunnah prayers like Salat Ad-Duha in the forenoon and Qiyaam Al-Layl Tahajjud even if you've already prayed Taraweeh and Sunnah Salat Al-Witr.
2💎 There's always a right timing or ideal occasion when 
Allah the Almighty wants you to connect or meet up with some Muslims. Alhamdulillah after numerous days and months of trying to plan when we could have an outing together or gather with other sisters, I was able to "pasyal pasyal" a bit with one of the moms from Wisdom Islamic School and her daughters and meet up with sister Jannah Umm Muhammad after visiting her at her residence which was a long time ago in 2024 if I'm not mistaken. 
Maintaining stable friendships as adults can sometimes be challenging when you and those whom you care about for Allah's sake have different busy schedules, different levels of energy to socialize and loads of responsibilities. You need an enormous amount of Sabr/patience for Allah's sake and significant tolerance for various disappointments if you're serious about wanting to keep a connection much longer 
Inn-sha-Allah than just temporary.
3💎 Alhamdulillah while waiting for the mom of half-Egyptian daughters so they and my daughter could go together to Niza's BBQ Halal Restaurant I asked the female manager of this Bench store at Gaisano Mall if they allow Muslims to utilize their fitting rooms to pray. She asked about how many minutes it usually takes for a Muslim to pray and I told her "like around 5 or 7 minutes" and accordingly she's okay with Muslim customers making use of the space in fitting rooms to perform their prayers as long as they don't take too long. However, I remember there's a Hadith in which the noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam mentioned how the best of places are the Masaajid/Mosques while the worst of places are the markets or shops where dunya related matters are commonly sought after. So unless there is an actual Musalla or designated prayer room somewhere at a shopping mall, I believe it is much better for Muslim females to pray in their rooms, at home or in the nearest Masjid/Mosque where they can better concentrate, particularly far away from loud music being played in the background and the possibility of noticing a number of strangers video recording you while you're praying in a supposedly quiet corner.
4💎 While his mother was praying, Alhamdulillah I was able to babysit cute Hafidh for several minutes letting him use my cellphone which didn't have internet data and game applications installed for toddlers. I let him play with the tiny jumping dinosaur game that shows up on Chrome browser whenever there's no WiFi and he was actually fascinated by that simple game of pixels while I interviewed him with random questions to distract him from running around.
5💎 One of the most important qualities to have as a good Muslim friend is patience for Allah's sake if you wish for any worthwhile friendship (and marriage) to continue - patience accompanied by lots of understanding rather than assuming negative thoughts about your Muslim friends and loved ones. If we look back to some of the broken connections we had, for those of us who have some ex-friends, we realize that many of those detachments occurred because we weren't patient enough with those former friends and vice versa. 
You need to stay patient and empathic for Allah's sake when a friend tells you "I'm sorry; I can't join you today.", "I'm sorry but I have to leave early", "Sorry but there's only one pack remaining", "Sorry that I can't give you a ride this evening" and "I am sorry to ask but what is your child's name again?" etc. Excessive kibr/pride is a terrible quality that causes narcissists to feel so offended easily and unwilling to accept genuine apologies.
True friends oftentimes argue or miscommunicate yet they're always forgiving of each other for Allah's sake, while those who very quickly walk away from your circle were probably incompatible, inauthentic or toxic in the first place. 

You're welcome to purchase some halal products from Jannah's Kitchen including packs of frozen sambusa with chicken filling (sometimes chicken, sometimes ground beef if I'm not mistaken) for 230 pesos (15 pieces of frozen sambusas ready for frying) and packs of frozen lumpia (spring rolls with vegetables) that cost 150 with 20 pieces in each packet. Feel free to contact sister Jannah Umm Muhammad for further information 🌼

If you're given permission to invite anyone to someone else's event, you should approach it ethically and respectfully. Here are some dos and don’ts to ensure that your invitations align with social etiquette and the host's expectations.

✅ DOs (Best Practices for Ethical Inviting)

Ask the Host for Clarifications

Before inviting anyone, confirm with the host if there are any limits (e.g., number of guests, preferred crowd).

Check if there are specific preferences (e.g., close friends only, family-friendly).

Consider the Host’s Comfort

Invite people who will enhance the gathering rather than cause discomfort or awkwardness.

Avoid bringing someone the host dislikes or has had issues with.

Stay Within the Event’s Purpose & Vibe

If it’s a casual get-together, invite people who match that tone.

If it’s an intimate gathering, don’t turn it into an open party.

Inform Your Invitees Properly

Let them know it’s not your event and that they are guests of a guest.

Share any relevant details (dress code, expectations, contributions, etc.).

Be Mindful of Space & Resources

Consider the venue’s capacity—don’t invite too many people.

If food and drinks are provided, don’t bring extra guests who will overconsume without contributing.

Check if RSVP is Needed

If the event has limited space or seating, confirm with the host before finalizing invitations.

Take Responsibility for Your Guests

Ensure that the people you invite behave appropriately and don’t cause issues.

If someone you invited misbehaves, be ready to step in and handle the situation.

❌ DON’Ts (Mistakes to Avoid)

Don’t Assume Unlimited Invitations

Just because you’re allowed to invite others doesn’t mean you should invite a whole crowd.

Don’t Invite Someone the Host Wouldn’t Want

Avoid people who have had past conflicts with the host.

If unsure, ask before inviting.

Don’t Change the Event’s Dynamic

If it’s a professional or intimate setting, don’t invite someone who might be loud, disruptive, or out of place.

Don’t Make It About You

Don’t use the opportunity to invite only your friends and make it feel like your personal gathering.

Don’t Bring Plus-Ones Without Warning

Avoid last-minute “Oh, by the way, I brought a friend.” Always confirm extra guests beforehand.

Don’t Invite People Who Might Cause Drama

If you know someone tends to argue, get jealous, or dominate conversations, think twice before inviting them.

Don’t Ignore the Host’s Instructions

If they say “only close friends,” don’t bring acquaintances.

If it’s a quiet dinner, don’t bring someone with the potential to cause unnecessary noise and drama.

Don’t Pressure People to Accept Your Invitation

Let them decide whether they want to attend.

Bottom Line

✔ Always prioritize the host’s comfort, event purpose, and guest experience.
✔ If in doubt, ask before inviting.
✔ Be mindful of space, resources, and social harmony.

⤴️ Some notes from ChatGPT

❓ Question: As an INTJ-A one of the qualities of people I wouldn't invite are those who are inconsistent with their replies to many of my messages, as though they answer only if doing so is of benefit to them and they won't respond depending on their fluctuating moods. What does that say about me?
💻 ChatGPT: That says a lot about your values in relationships and communication. As an INTJ-A, you likely prioritize consistency, reliability, and mutual respect in interactions. Here’s what this preference reveals about you:

You Value Reciprocity & Intentionality

You’re not interested in one-sided interactions where people only engage when it serves them.


You expect genuine effort in communication, not just convenience-based responses.


You Dislike Emotional Volatility & Unreliability

People who respond based on fluctuating moods appear unstable and unpredictable, which likely frustrates your need for structured interactions.


You prefer people who are consistent and rational, rather than emotionally reactive.


You Have Strong Boundaries

You don’t entertain relationships where you feel like an option rather than a priority.


If someone’s inconsistent behavior signals lack of respect or reliability, you remove them from your circle unapologetically.


You Prefer Efficiency & Clarity

Unclear communication patterns waste your time and mental energy.


You prefer people who state their intentions clearly rather than leaving you to guess whether they’ll engage or not.


You See Through Manipulative or Opportunistic Behavior

If someone only replies when they benefit, it signals self-serving tendencies, which you quickly detect and reject.


You don’t tolerate people who exploit connections rather than genuinely nurture them.


Bottom Line

You expect rational, reliable, and intentional communication, and you don’t entertain people who play mind games, act inconsistently, or fail to respect mutual effort.

Note: Being Famous Online Or Having Lots Of Supporters Does Not Always Mean Allah Loves Them

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم 

The message "Being "famous vloggers" & "influencers" w/ many fans isn't proof that Allah loves them. shaytan is popular & worse of all servants." emphasizes that having fame, followers, and influence is not necessarily a sign of Allah’s love or favor. It warns against equating worldly popularity with divine approval, as even the worst of beings—shaytan (satan)—has significant influence and countless followers. Popularity does not guarantee righteousness or nearness to Allah the Almighty.

Core Meanings in 33 Sentences:

Many people assume that having a large audience means someone is blessed or favored by Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.

However, fame and influence can be a test rather than a reward.

shaytan is widely known and has led billions of people astray.

Despite his popularity, he is the worst of all created beings and the most despised servant of Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.

Likewise, many influencers and vloggers may be admired by millions but engage in sinful or harmful behavior.

A large following does not reflect moral superiority or divine favor.

Some influencers spread materialism, vanity, and immoral values.

Having a lot of wealth, fans, or status does not mean someone is truly successful in the sight of Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.

Real success is attaining Allah’s pleasure, not human admiration.

A person with no or few followers but sincere worship is better than an influencer leading others astray.

The world often values entertainment over righteousness.

Many people follow influencers who promote haram activities.

shaytan misleads countless individuals and his fate is Hell jahannam.

Likewise, influencers who mislead others may be accountable on the Day of Judgment.

True guidance comes from Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala, not from social media trends.

Some famous individuals may use their platform for good.

Others may use it for deception, pride, or corruption.

Having many fans can feed arrogance and distance one from humility.

Popularity can sometimes be a tool of fitnah (trial).

People who seek fame for worldly gain may lose in the Hereafter.

Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala tests His servants with wealth, beauty, and status.

Just because something is popular does not mean it is right or worth following and admiring.

The majority can be misguided.

In the Noble Qur'an there are some warnings against blindly following the crowd.

The noble Messenger Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam was not the most followed person in his time, yet he was the most beloved to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.

Those who call to good may have fewer followers than those who promote falsehood.

Influencers should be mindful of the responsibility that comes with their reach.

They will be questioned about how they used their influence.

Even religious influencers should guard their intentions.

Seeking Allah’s pleasure should be the priority, not seeking validation from people.

Followers can be a blessing or a curse depending on how they are influenced.

True honor comes from Allah the Most Wise, not from social media metrics.

One’s status in the Hereafter matters far more than their status online.

7 Examples for Clarification:

A vlogger posts extravagant lifestyle content, promoting materialism and greed—millions admire them, but this does not mean Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala loves them.

A famous influencer encourages sinful behavior like immodesty and haram relationships—many follow them, yet they are spreading what displeases Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.

A social media star mocks religious people and gains millions of supporters—despite their popularity, their actions distance them from Allah’s Mercy.

A wealthy YouTuber flaunts luxury cars and encourages envy—having riches and lots of followers or subscribers does not mean they are loved by Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.

A celebrity influencer promotes arrogance and self-obsession—despite their fans, they may be failing in their spiritual journey.

A lesser-known scholar teaches Islam sincerely—though they have fewer followers, their sincerity makes them more beloved to Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.

The noble Prophet Muhammad SallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam sometimes faced opposition yet he was and is the most beloved servant of Allah Subhaanahu wa Ta'aala.

In summary, fame is not proof of righteousness, and true success is measured by Allah’s standards, not by human admiration.

⚠️ Never solely rely on AI (artificial intelligence) regarding fatawa or religious verdicts.
