the importance of prioritisation

[muslim brother]

circle of concern and circle of influence

if one is in education and based in the uk it would be safe to assume that the priority would be to local concerns and education
a fathers priority would be family and community
a mothers would be too

in an age when anyone can pick up a phone or tablet and view anything going on anywhere anytime,it may appear that one should get involved.

a sensible rational decision would be to involve oneself in local concerns,projects,charities etc and to focus on ones parenting ,community etc

an irrational move would be to upsticks and run to somewhere just because they need or appear to need help

problems arise when emotional rhetoric(guilt trips) are laid on constantly by speakers and so called activists who fail to end their talks with rational solutions .
it is imperative that individuals with platforms balance emotional talks with statistics of "our murdered brothers and sisters"as they constantly say..with the legal and halal and locally focused and effective solution to their emotionally charged speeches.

emotional manipulation either purposeful or not has to be borne in mind when speaking to young immature minds including angry men or women.

priorities..

1. self improvement education etc
2.being locally productive and effective..

once these are in place we can move on to many more stages

PARK LIFE

I HAVE A DREAM

THAT ONE DAY WE WILL PICK UP OUR OWN LITTER
AND NOT LEAVE CIGARETTE BUTTS ON THE PLAY AREA

that we will not vandalise or destroy or deface
and we will use the bins and not spit on the seats where people will sit

WE WILL PUT EMPTY DRINK BOTTLES IN THE BINS and pick up others rubbish
AND NOT SHATTER GLASS BOTTLES WHERE OUR LITTLE BROTHERS AND SISTERS PLAY

THAT TEENAGERS WILL NOT SWEAR BUT RESPECT THE FAMILIES AROUND THEM
AND THEY WILL NOT HOG THE SWINGS,BUT LET THE CHILDREN HAVE THEIR DUE

WE WILL RESPECT AND APPRECIATE THE FACILITIES BUILT FOR US BY NONE MUSLIMS
INSTEAD OF DESTROYING EVERYTHING""KUFFAAR""

I HAVE A DREAM THAT WE WILL PUT OUR OWN HOUSE IN ORDER FIRST
AND WAKE UP TO A NEW DAWN WHERE WE BEGIN TO SEE OUR OWN FAILINGS DENIAL AND SELF DESTRUCTIVE ATTITUDES

i have a dream that we will notice and improve our own weaknesses ,failings and faults

[muslim brother]

why i follow the methods of tasawwuf and tabligh

its very simple..

the priority is self reformation,

remembering the 5 daily salah,some zikr and some quran etc

some dawah either by words or good actions or just being a good law abiding citizen

alhamdulillah
while the fundamentals always remain the same
new challenges and un precedented situations needs transformative and adaptive individuals to volunteer their services.
the old guard must allow and encourage future caretakers and khaadims
ultimately Allah taala will bring the right individuals,in the correct place,at the proper time.
may Allah taala use us all for the protection and propagation of the deen for Allah taalas pleasure only.

failure to adapt
failure to prepare
failure to deal with...
these are not options anymore
