  • With the rise of Social Media we have seen the increased commercialization of Ramadhan and an emphasis on aesthetics and I wonder sometimes if this is taking away from the essence of Ramadhan, a time we should be using our resources on improving our selves spiritually.

    I really like you’re point about commercialization and I feel like big corporations will start to cash in on it soon, we already see Ramadan Decor and things at Target

      I started seeing the commercialization slowly about 10-15 years ago and now I see it everywhere.

    Assalamu Alaikum Sister!
    I'm so happy I came across this video, honestly I completely agreed with all of your points. I love the concept of minimalism and how I feel that we all need to really let go of materialistic aspects of life and truly focus on the core aspect of Ramadan which is all about increasing your Iman and good deeds. ❤
    It really helps you declutter your mind and you won't have to waste your energy and time on cleaning so much.

      Walaikum aSalam! Thank you for watching and I agree. Less you have the easier it is to focus on your Iman. It’s all about trying to balance your life and not get caught up with the trends. It’s definitely not easy either I would say but I’m trying 😆

    A lot of people think social media is what completes life.
    Social media is killing a lot of factors in everyone's lives but no one can see it because it blindsides decieved people with this concept of "I'm going to post this so people can see it and care".
    It's fine to share things, but people have gone overboard. I myself have started a purge of all my social media content and clearing it, because there really isn't a reason as to why we need to live our lives trying to impress everyone else or even try to show off anything we have.
    Be happy with what you own, we will ultimately take NOTHING with us to the grave.. (as sad as it sounds, but it's LIFE)
    Less is nothing but nothing is MORE, if you know how to interpret that in the right way, in your life.
    We really undervalue what we have, especially throughout the current genocidal incident in Gaza/Palestine, we are SO lucky to have access to food/drink/resources ON DEMAND, but social media is corrupting everything.. Yes, we can't do a lot from far away but we can reflect and become better, civilized people, even if it's for ourselves.
    Great video by the way and Ramadan Mubarak 🌙

      Ramadhan Mubarak! Thank you for sharing your thoughts! 😁😁I think the unfortunate situation in Gaza that has become extremely terrible since the 7th is what had me reflecting a lot and feel like I don’t need to spend my time and resources on viewing content and sharing content about how good or bad my life is because overall I am extremely blessed and privileged to have a roof over my head and the time to make and edit a video.
      Of course I’m not going to lie, I find myself tempted here and there but I think Ramadhan is a great time to reset and reassess priorities to refrain from too much materialism

      @@safasliceoflife Of course, and you can't blame yourself for temptation. Allah never made one person perfect for a reason, we're meant to feel certain things and the Dunya only tries to possess us to do things we may regret, or have doubts about.
      But there's limits to things, if you can keep things to a certain boundary where it doesn't expose what you have to others to a high degree, then it's fine, the problem is there's too much hate/bad eye against people... but you learn to get over the temptation where you want to show parts of your life, because you come to a huge realisation, whether that takes 1 year or 10, there's a point where everyone will feel it.

    *_Do you know that Musa lived in Saudi Arabia when he fled from Pharaoh and married the daughter of a priest there?_* Surah 28:18-27 and compare with Exodus 2:11-25.
    Do you know that the mountain of God, where the miracle of the burning bush was performed, is in Saudi Arabia? Surah 28:29-35 and Surah 20:9-14, compare with Exodus 3. Even when Moses said: “My Lord! Reveal Yourself to me so I may see You.” And the mountain crumbled in Saudi Arabia, Surah 7:143.
    But the story revealed in the Quran is mixed up because Al-Lah did not remember that the mountain did not crumble when he appeared to Moses and Moses wasn’t unconscious, see Exodus 33:17-23. But *when Al-Lah appeared to the prophet Elijah, the mountain crumbled* because there was a powerful wind, an earthquake, and fire when he appeared to Elijah 1 Kings 19:9-14. You could say the Bible is false; why would anyone change this particular story?
    Musa received the tablets with the Ten Commandments on the mountain of God in Saudi Arabia Surah 28 :44. *Where are they?* Why did the Apostle of * Al-Lah ABROGATE the 10 COMMANDMENTS?* Read Exodus chapter 20 and tell us what’s wrong with the Ten Commandments. They aren’t in the Quran because *the Ten Commandments is the KEY that opens the doors of Paradise* If you lived by these laws before the time of Moses, you will go to heaven.
    On one hand, you have the mountain where God descended, and on the other hand, you have the black stone, which was used by the pagans before Muhammad. A hypothetical stone that descended from heaven. You chose the stone. This stone is clear proof that the Jannah of Al-Lah is a physical place because the black stone that came from there is a physical object. Even so, you’re saving money to go and kiss it, just as the prophet of Al-Lah and his companions kissed it.
    God knows how many men and women put their lips on the black stone-what a pure and holey stone.
    « 17 So I took the cup from the LORD’s hand and made all the nations to whom he sent me drink it: 24 all the kings of Arabia and all the kings of the foreign people who live in the wilderness; » Jeremiah 25:17-24. Read the whole chapter.
    « Al-Lah will not take you to account for those oaths that you swear unintentionally, such as if someone carelessly says, ‘No, by Al-Lah!’ or ‘Yes, by Al-Lah!’ For such oaths there is no need to make any compensation, nor any further consequences. However, He will take you to account for intentional oaths. Al-Lah forgives and tolerates the sins of His servants and is not hasty in sending punishment. » Surah 2:225.
    Could you imagine Rasulullah Muhammadun responding in this manner to someone who asks him if he is a Muslim? "By Al-Lah, I'm not a Muslim, and I do not know their god, Al-Lah." Don't you think it's cowardice and hypocrisy?
    « O ye who believe! When ye consult the Messenger in private, spend something in charity before your private consultation. That will be best for you. » Surah 58:12.
    Have you ever seen a prophet of a god who demands money for a private consultation like the shaman of Amazonia?
    Believe it or not, even the powerful Al-Lah, a god with power far greater than a nuclear weapon, has enemies.
    Your book is full of contradictions; the biggest misconception among Arabs is that they never knew the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Moses. According to the Book of Genesis, Midian was the son of Abraham and Keturah; he established his kingdom in the Arabian Peninsula, and he’s the father of the Arabs (Genesis 25 :1-2).
    Muhammad is not the one who made God known to the Arabs. Moreover, *Moses and the Burning Bush took place in Saudi Arabia* when Musa fled Egypt to Midian. The Saudis closed off these holy places to keep Jews and Christians away and to favour the religion of Muhammad. Read Exodus 3 :1 and Surah 28 :29-30 and 28 :43-46; Al-Lah confirmed that these places are holy compared to your false holy places in Mecca, such as the black stone and the mount Arafat, where Muslims placed the white obelisk which was worshipped in ancient religions. It still worshipped today as the penis of Shivah. In addition, *God sent the prophet Jeremiah to the Arabs* ; read Jeremiah 25 :17-24. Jeremiah is the prophet that God sent to all nations. « I knew you before I formed you in the womb; I set you apart for me before you were born; I appointed you to be a prophet to the nations. » Jeremiah 1 :5.
    Al-Lah himself doesn’t know that he gave the laws to Musa on the mountain of God in Saudi Arabia (Surah 28 :44). *_HE DOESN'T KNOW THAT THE PEOPLE OF MIDIAN ARE ARABS; he contradicted himself_* in the Surah 28 :45 & Surah 6 :163.
    « _For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it._ » Matthew 16:25.
    Jesus isn’t a Muslim. Compare the verse above with what Al-Lah advised Muhammadun and his ummah in Surah 2 :225.
