Muslims in the UK

I cut myself the blood dripped feminism an ideology that lived amongst us men to oppress us . We still grew stronger protecting our queens from getting radicalized in such ways that can trigger growing harm in their mental stability. We protected them they became ours not my force but by choice.

Salam people 🙂

Hey everyone 🇩🇿🇬🇧….. From Leeds 🌸

Is it unethical If I am looking to marry a girl with settled status here in UK. I don’t wanna go back I want to live here. That’s not the only reason I will be a nice husband, I do pray 5 times a day earn enough money to provide. So if someone can help me with that what’s the issue. Am I being selfish ?

Everyone is posting 💍💍💍
Is that code for 'I got married'??

The Qur’an describes husband and wife as: “They are clothing for you and you are clothing for them” (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:187). The verse in particular paints marriage as two people becoming a shelter for one another through mercy, loyalty, patience, and love covering each other’s flaws, protecting each other from harm, bringing warmth in hardship, and remaining close in both peace and struggle.

I think the way I have seen men speak about women on here and their dominion and power over them doesn’t reflect this teaching well.

So I was suppose to meet a sister today after a month of speaking on ere, I wake up and I see I’m blocked. I got my trim, bought some clothes I was going to wear and wake up blocked the day we are going to meet 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️.. she appeared god fearing, religious etc and then this happens, like if she wasn’t interested I suppose she could of let me know sooner rather than block me on the day we were going to meet.. would of preferred here to just say sorry we ain’t a match and just unmatch which I would of been fine with but I wake up and I’m blocked lol.. the sad side of Muslim dating apps 🤷‍♂️.. Qadr Allah

The Decline in Femininity and Changing Gender Roles in Modern Society

Modern Gender Role Shifts

Research shows major changes in gender roles due to education, employment and social development. Women now take on wider public and economic roles, while traditional distinctions between male and female responsibilities have become less fixed.

Family Structure and Responsibility

Economic pressure and modern lifestyles have reshaped family systems. Men and women increasingly share responsibilities, which some studies link to blurred traditional role expectations within households.

Feminism and Women’s Agency

Feminist research frames these changes as women gaining autonomy and choice. From this view, femininity is not lost but redefined, allowing women to choose careers, family life, or both depending on personal preference.

Islamic View on Gender Roles

Islamic teachings generally describe men and women as complementary, with shared spiritual value but different responsibilities in family structure. Men are often associated with provision and protection, while women are associated with nurturing, though interpretations vary among scholars.

Debate on Role Change

Some researchers argue that shifts in male responsibility have influenced changes in female behaviour, while others attribute it to broader economic and social transformation. There is no single agreed explanation across studies.

Conclusion

Modern gender roles are shaped by social and economic change. Both Islamic and academic perspectives suggest that stability is found less in rigid roles and more in responsibility, balance and mutual respect between men and women.

Football and Masculine Identity

Research in sociology and psychology shows that football often appeals to men because it reflects values traditionally associated with masculinity, including competition, teamwork, leadership, status and loyalty. Studies suggest many men use sport as a socially accepted space to express emotion, identity and belonging.

Brotherhood and Community

Researchers have found that football creates strong social bonds between men. Supporting a club gives fans a sense of brotherhood, shared purpose and collective identity. In many societies, football gatherings function as important social rituals that strengthen friendships and community ties.

Emotional Expression

Academic studies note that sport allows men to express emotions that may otherwise be discouraged in some cultures. Through football, men openly experience excitement, pride, disappointment and passion in a communal environment without social stigma.

A Muslim Perspective on Recreation

Islamic scholarship generally views sports and recreation as permissible when balanced and kept within ethical limits. Historical Islamic traditions encouraged physical strength, discipline and healthy competition. Many Muslim researchers argue football becomes problematic only when it leads to harmful behaviour such as neglecting obligations, aggression, gambling or excessive obsession.

Football as Modern Culture

Modern researchers describe football as more than entertainment; it operates as a cultural and social institution. For many men across different societies, religion, ethnicity and class backgrounds, football represents identity, tradition and emotional connection passed across gener

Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh 🤲

The moon has officially been sighted in Saudi Arabia, meaning tomorrow marks the beginning of the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah — the most beloved days to Allah for good deeds.

At a time where many of us will be receiving countless requests and donation appeals, I sincerely ask you to keep my unique South America Dawah project in your thoughts and duas.

This is a project I have personally built from the ground up, sacrificing a lot to establish work on the ground in Cartagena, Colombia 🇨🇴 where we are already seeing newly reverted Muslims and struggling communities in need of real long-term support.

The Prophets endured hardships to call people to Allah — and this responsibility continues with us.

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:
“Whoever calls to guidance will have a reward similar to that of those who follow him, without it detracting from their rewards in the slightest.”

By supporting overseas Dawah projects, every prayer, fast, Quran recitation and good deed performed by a revert can become a source of ongoing reward for you too 🤍

Funds will go towards:
📖 Qur’ans & Dawah materials
🚐 Transport for reverts to Jumu’ah
🍲 Friday meals in remote areas
🕌 Expanding masjid space for the growing community

100% goes directly to the project.

If donating, please mention whether it is:
🤲 Sadaqah
🕌 Lillah
📖 Zakat
💷 Interest Disposal

May Allah reward every person who supports, shares or even makes dua for this work 🤍
