Since the dawn of the 9th century, a remarkable revolution in healthcare and compassion began to unfold across the Muslim world.
Over 500 hospitals were established for healing, hope, and humanitarianism. These institutions were far ahead of their time, emphasising not only the physical wellbeing of individuals, but also providing holistic care, including mental and spiritual health.
Such hospitals were open to all, regardless of background, wealth, or creed, reflecting the Islamic ethos of empathy, equity, and the importance of caring for the community. They were centres of learning, where physicians and scholars advanced the frontiers of medical knowledge, treatments, and ethical patient care.
These examples showcase strength and compassion, while representing a pioneering spirit, empathy, and a commitment to the welfare of the community.
Let this encourage us to build a world where healthcare and compassion are accessible to everyone.

Taqwā is a term that, along with its derivatives, has been mentioned in the Qur’ān approximately 240 times.
When Allāh makes mention of a particular word that denotes a particular quality, numerous times, it teaches us how important that quality is to Allāh.
It is no secret that this quality of Taqwā is synonymous with the month of Ramaḍān.

Like Fir’awn, Netanyahu and the Zionists substantiate their claim of superiority by invoking the fact that they have created materially prosperous societies, with advanced organisational and technological capabilities.
As Muslims, there are two archetypical ways in which we can respond to this: the way of Qārūn, or the way of Mūsa (ʿalayhi al-Salām).

Prophet Sulaymān was himself the son of a prophet, Dāwūd (ʿalayhima al-Salām). He was blessed with a kingdom similar to Dāwūd and spread the truth with wisdom and justice.
But similar to Dāwūd, he was also tested.

We at Islam21c are keen to share with you a vital update regarding Zakat giving.
We strongly advocate for the distribution of Zakat in the form of cash to beneficiaries where possible.
Why cash distribution?
1. Transferring cash directly into the hands of those in need not only grants them ownership but also upholds their dignity by allowing them the freedom to address their personal and immediate needs.
2. Cash contributions empower the recipient, offering them the flexibility to spend on what they deem most necessary, thereby preserving their self-respect and independence.
3. We are utilising bank transfers to eliminate transaction fees whilst also allowing for Gift Aid to those eligible.
How can you do this?
We have worked with our trusted charity partner, Mercy to Humanity, to facilitate this.

Allah gives the parable of a father who owned a garden, not too far from Sana’a. The parable was a reminder to the Quraysh — and is to us all — of the end of those who are ungrateful.
The owner of this particular garden was very charitable when he was alive. In his lifetime, he would give a portion to his family, a portion he would reinvest into the garden, and the excess he would give to the poor in charity.
When he passed away, he left the garden to his children. So what happened to the garden?

But if we truly reflect on this and are honest with our own souls, are we really happy this Ramadan or are we really sad it is ending?

Spanning the vibrant markets of the Middle East to the bustling cities of North Africa, the construction of 5,000 miles of paved roads stands as a huge testament to the ingenuity and foresight of our ancestors.
These pathways were like veins through which the lifeblood of the empire flowed, connecting diverse communities, facilitating the exchange of ideas, culture, and commodities, whilst knitting together a vast and varied landscape into a cohesive and dynamic entity.
This impressive network of roads symbolises the strength and unification of the Ummah, showcasing an unparalleled commitment to progress, connectivity, and mutual support. It reminds us of the importance of building bridges — both literal and metaphorical — between different parts of our world.
These ancient roads also motivate us to pave our own paths of progress, connecting hearts & minds, and forging ahead with purpose. We can draw from our rich heritage to build a future marked by understanding & shared success.

Both believers and arrogant non-Muslims should be given da’wah, but the one who is arguably more worthy of your time and effort is the believer that already holds the right mindset.
The believer that will more likely take heed of your admonition and guidance is perhaps much more worthy of your time than those that turn away arrogantly from the true message of Islam.

In the 9th century, nestled in the landscapes of Afghanistan, stood around 400 windmills, showcasing the inventive spirit and environmental consciousness of our ancestors.
These pioneering structures were marvels of engineering; harnessing the wind's power to grind grain and pump water, thereby sustaining communities and agriculture.
They reiterate the Ummah's long-standing commitment to nature, and motivate us to look to the wisdom of the past as we forge a future where sustainability and environmental harmony can guide our path to bettering our community and that of the entire world.
