What does S.A.W. mean?

sallallahu 'alayhi wa sallam, (meaning Peace be upon him

[A m e n r i a]

So? Just because one does something doesn't mean it's permitted in their religion. Look - I lie, I lust, I commit murder in my heart from time to time; I envy, and I sometimes gossip. Does that make these things allow in Christianity?

No, not just lyrics. Isn't music made with instruments also not of Allah('s law), which is what Sahih Al-Bukhari 5590 indicates?

You are correct. Even if a lot of Muslims do it anyway, music is haram. Well kind of. Musical instruments are haram with the exception of the Daf, but singing in of itself is not necessarily haram. Ironically when Amenria said "I write lyrics," that actually doesn't count as haram in of itself. Poetry is widely practiced among Islamic scholars.

I rap about assault, murder, arson, and unrequited love.

Then you're making poetry about haram things except for the last part that's fine.

Beautiful sermon by Omar Suleiman on Palestine, Biden's visit to Michigan, and how it is connected to the Prophet Muhammad (saw) struggles.

And that's the "difference" between a democrat and republican administration. How openly the president stirs up hatred of anyone suspected of being Muslim. Biden definitely has done his own fair share of fanning the flames of anti Muslim rhetoric and discrimination, whether he wants to admit to it like his predecessor or not.

Sounds like she just needs to educate herself on this subject.

Alhamdulillah this will be my first Ramadan, I'm really excited. I'll have to break fast early some days because of the necessity of medicine, but I intend to keep it most of what I can.

Eyyyy thank you all. I am really afraid of backsliding but the warmheartedness of you and other Muslim brothers and sisters gives me more confidence to keep going.

How is everyone's Ramadan going so far?

How is everyone's Ramadan going so far?

Alhamdulillah. Today is our second day (because we don't follow Saudi Arabia's calendar. We go by sightings of the moon on this side of the earth).

I've noticed feelings of calmness and serenity happen when I fast, and much of the fast moving thoughts of the day, dissipate.

Ah I see, so by the end of today it would have been your 3rd correct?

Alhumdillilah that is amazing to hear. Ramadan is the best time to slow down and contemplate.

I feel my temptations are leaving my head, and I am less distracted while at work.

Better than I expected. I'd never thought crying my eyes out at the mosque at night would do so much to me.
