The Delusion of Safety | Late Night Heart Softeners

Such a beautiful session. It actually made me scared about sharing information online, because everything is about context and that's obviously almost always missing from social media.

💯! It just isn't worthwhile. Allah protect you and bless you. Ameen

May Allah reward and protect Sh. Dr. Hatem al-Haj and his family. He’s such an articulate and effective teacher. I enjoyed and learned a lot from his classes in 2003-2004 before moving from Minnesota to Texas. He would drive all the way from Albert Lea (near Mayo Clinic), which is about 2 hours away, to mpls to teach us at Masjid ar-Rahman and Dar al-Huda. May Allah accept his efforts.

So insightful and thought provoking discussion! Mashallah!

[@kayemmee]

This discussion is transformative for me.

Allah bless you

[@-WalkWithMe2025]

Alhamdulillah, thank you for your message of hope ...in today's dunya that deludes the most righteous of us 24/7 ...

[@safiakadir7695]

Thank you for focusing on evasions , excuses and delusions to bypass following the tenets of our deen. . I learnt a lot!

What an essential topic for our entire community. I find it difficult to know how to respond when a friend posts photos of herself after removing hijab and many people praise her how lovely she looks. I found the sample responses shared to “change the paradigm” especially helpful.

[@safiakadir7695]

In regard to avoid sins and situations that lead to sin: one of the challenges is ghibat , when your friends go in this direction and you need to use extra brain power to figure out how to steer away from it.

[@LoveGigi99]

What is ghibat?

[@banirahman4926]

Backbiting

[@ange8580]

If anyone has tips pls share 🙏🏻

[@hashh2019]

somehow bring up Allah’s name in the discussion n ppl will start feeling guilt, or make an excuse n go to restroom or remember a task u need to do n present it as urgent and leave. or just say this is too much information for me to handle n im afraid it may go towards gheebah.

[@banirahman4926]

I think “riba” is a sin that has become very normal in our Muslim community. Unfortunately many people do not consider it as a sin. Everyone is buying houses on riba and are not thinking of it as a sin.
