Assalaam o alaikum!

It’s been an eventful week once again in this modern world. From big rebrands, new Islamic products and Mufti Menk making the news as usual, but this time it wasn’t actually him 😱

THE BIG IDEA

Why you need to be on Twitter 𝕏

Before it was Trump making headlines all the time when he was president. And now it’s Elon with Twitter. Over the weekend he tweeted his followers asking for a new logo for the Twitter rebrand to X. He got it, and now it’s actually happening. Twitter will no longer be called Twitter.

The 𝕏 Opportunity

Twitter / X, will not die so easily. People said it would. But it still lives, and with this rebrand it might even thrive.

And 𝕏 is great for your personal brand, even with 0 followers.

When used correctly, you can leverage Twitter to grow your brand, get clients and make new connections. Here’s 5 ways to do that:

  • Share helpful stuff. Post useful tips, interesting ideas, or thoughtful views to showcase your expertise.

  • Chat with your followers. Engage with them through likes, replies and retweets. Build rapport.

  • Join in conversations. Use relevant hashtags to share your perspective. Make new friends.

  • Promote your best content. Share blogs, videos, graphics - whatever captivates audiences.

  • Connect with influencers. Follow and interact with leaders in your field, partners and potential clients.

By consistently creating and sharing great content, having real conversations, and connecting with the right people, you can build relationships and grow your brand community on Twitter in a friendly way.

It’s not all about how many followers you have. One meaningful connection can propel you. InshaAllah.

ISLAMIC FINANCE

What is Waqf?

Waqf is an old Islamic tradition of donating something you own to help others forever. For example, historically waqf funded schools, hospitals, mosques.

It works like this:

  • You donate an asset - like money, land, a building - to waqf.

  • That asset is then held in a charitable trust.

  • Any profits that asset makes get used to support good causes, like fighting poverty.

  • Your donation keeps benefitting people long after you're gone. It's lasting charity!

Now Wahed lets you easily do waqf too.

Their new app feature lets you take a % of your halal investments and donate it to waqf.

This money will be invested responsibly. The profits will go to Wahed's charity partner, I Waqf.

I Waqf will use your waqf donation to fund projects that help people in need. And you can suggest causes you care about.

So with Wahed's app, Muslims today can bring back this beautiful tradition of waqf. Your charitable giving can make a difference for generations!

SubhanAllah!

TRENDING

IMAM MAHDI HAS APPEARED! NO.

AI is now so advanced that it can clone voices and faces to make it appear as if someone is saying something that they actually are not.

From now on question the source of every video. If it’s not been posted on the person’s official accounts (assuming they haven’t been hacked) then we don’t know if it’s a fake. Scary. 😱

QURANLE 266

يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ وَذَرُوا۟ مَا بَقِىَ مِنَ ٱلرِّبَوٰٓا۟ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ

O believers! Fear Allah, and give up outstanding interest if you are ˹true˺ believers.
— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran 

Word-by-word translation:

yāayyuhā    O you
alladhīna   who
āmanū       believe[d]
ittaqū      Fear
al-laha     Allah
