Allāhu Akbar, Allāhu Akbar, lā ilāha ill-Allāh. Allāhu Akbar, Allāhu Akbar, wa Lillāhi’l-hamd. On this special day of Eid, we're all going to be busy in the company of loved ones, celebrating while praising Allah (subḥānahu wa taʿālā). But for those of us who are yet to give our Zakat for 1447, there is still time. And what better charity than one that only delivers Zakat as cash? Consider entrusting our charity partner, Muslims in Need, for this obligation. islam21c.com/zakat

Ramadan 1447 has left us behind, may Allah (subḥānahu wa ta'āla) allow us to reach the next. Taqabbal Allāhu minnā wa minkum ṣālihal-aʿmāl. May He accept this worship from you and us. Allāhu Akbar, Allāhu Akbar, lā ilāha ill-Allāh. Allāhu Akbar, Allāhu Akbar, wa Lillāhi’l-hamd.

The date of Eid al-Fitr has been announced, but we can't lose steam now! With these precious moments remaining of Ramadan 1447, if you're still looking for a trusted place to have your Zakat distributed in cash, consider our charity partner, Muslims in Need. May Allāh (subḥānahu wa taʿālā) accept our ṣiyām, our qiyām, our duʿā, our charity, and all our ʿibādah in this blessed month. Āmīn. islam21c.com/zakat

In light of the continued forced closure of Masjid al-Aqsa by the Zionist regime, here are some points that khatībs may use for the Eid al-Fitr 1447/2026 khutbah. islam21c.com/khutbah/eid-al…

Dr. Layla Aitlhadj, Director of Prevent Watch, argues that we often assume that if people are shown enough evidence, they will change their minds. But that simply isn’t true. When the truth threatens power or reputation, denial becomes easier than acceptance. Abu Jahl witnessed something undeniable and still refused to believe. But the truth did not change because he denied it! islam21c.com/politics/refle…

The despicable Israeli occupation has shut the gates of Masjid al-Aqsa for over two weeks and counting, barring worshippers during the peak time of Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr. This shameless act deserves unequivocal condemnation. It is yet another grave violation that assaults Palestinian freedom and disrespects the sanctity of one of the most special places on Earth. The Ummah must not remain silent, and our response must be clear: • Support efforts that defend this blessed sanctuary. • Raise awareness in khutbahs, posts, and conversations. • Make sincere du'ā for the protection of al-Aqsa and the freedom of Palestine.

23 years ago on Monday, an Israeli occupation bulldozer crushed and killed US activist Rachel Corrie in Gaza, as she stood defending a Palestinian family’s home from illegal demolition. The driver was a soldier whose name has been kept hidden. No one has ever been held criminally accountable. Israeli military investigations cleared those involved, and a later civil case brought by her family was rejected by Israeli courts. This is one of the last emails she sent home: "Just want to write to my Mom and tell her that I’m witnessing this chronic, insidious genocide and I’m really scared, and questioning my fundamental belief in the goodness of human nature. This has to stop. I think it is a good idea for us all to drop everything and devote our lives to making this stop. I don’t think it’s an extremist thing to do anymore... Disbelief and horror is what I feel. Disappointment. I am disappointed that this is the base reality of our world and that we, in fact, participate in it. This is not at all what I asked for when I came into this world. This is not at all what the people here asked for when they came into this world. This is not the world you and Dad wanted me to come into when you decided to have me. This is not what I meant when I looked at Capital Lake and said: “This is the wide world and I’m coming to it.” I did not mean that I was coming into a world where I could live a comfortable life and possibly, with no effort at all, exist in complete unawareness of my participation in genocide. More big explosions somewhere in the distance outside."

The Zionist regime has kept Masjid al-Aqsa closed for 18 consecutive days. Now it is reportedly planning to keep it shut beyond Eid al-Fitr. To educate our communities on this dire situation, here is a template that Imams and khatībs can use in preparation for their sermon. islam21c.com/khutbah/aqsa-c…

Maybe we shouldn't use hashtags? Do we really need to delve into every single tool offered by social media platforms in order to get our message out there, or should we show restraint while also relying on Allah? Dr. Asim Qureshi speaks about his change in approach to a platform like Instagram, where previously he would use hashtags but has now stopped. Watch the full video: 🎥 youtu.be/ai3w-xy3veA
