Culture and Language are used to pontificate, promote, perpetuate, pseudo-justify al-`Asabiyyah/Xenophobia
al-Muqaddimah/Prelude One of my Sihah/Wellness-Colleagues via Kenya, by the Name of Sylvia Otieno, requested that I do a Sharh/Commentary on a Risālah/Article which they authored. I was truly honored, by Allah, that they deemed me worthy enough to give any Kind/Type of Sharh concerning their Work. It was actually quite humbling, when they asked me… Continue reading

I know I ain’t worse than These-Niggas: A Hujjah (Indictment) against the Hypocrisy that is the “Muslim-Speaker” Scene which is predicated upon “Shaykh-Culture”
Allah states: “Those whom believe pay attention: Revere Allah & speak a Straight-Word.” (Noble-Quran: Chpt.33, V.70) Muhammad (Peace be upon them) stated: “Always speak Truth, even if it’s bitter (even if it rubs People the Wrong-Way).” (ibn-Hibbān&al-Bayhaqī) View this post on Instagram A post shared by Habeeb Akande (@habeeb_akande) al-Muqaddimah/Prelude This-Risālah/Article is predicated upon my… Continue reading

I really hate Relationship Cry-Babies
This is precisely how/why People just need to keep Certain-Things to themselves. As we all know: Social-Media is a Haven for Pseudo-Validation: everyone wants to be recognized/accepted by someone via something. Yeah…it’s Human-Nature, I get it. But, at the Same-Time: at which Point do we as People cease pursuing Attention-Addiction?!!! It’s like via the Social-Media… Continue reading

How Certain-People choose to see Others
Allah states: “Oh, Humanity: Verily, We created you from a Male&Female & then made you Diverse-Nations&Tribes, to identify/respect one another. Verily, the Most-Noble amongst you to Allah are the Most-Pious. Verily, Allah is All-Knowing All-Aware.”.(Noble-Qur’ān: Chpt.49, V.13) Throughout the Duration of my Life Countless-Persons: both Muslims & Non-Muslims alike, even those whom I grew-up with/around,… Continue reading

`Asabiyyah/Xenophobia vs. al-`Urf/Culture According to Ben Shapiro
Ben Shapiro, Socio-Political Pundit, a Euro-Version of Candace Owens, known for their Controversial-Views on everything just about…they were speaking at a Panel and were questioned regarding the Income&Wealth-Gap between the Average Euro-American & Average Afro-American. Ben Shapiro of course deflected the Actual-Issue & pontificated/claimed that it’s 0 to do with al-`Asabiyyah & everything to do… Continue reading

al-`Asabiyyah/Xenophobia via al-Libās/Fashion
One of the Worst-Things done via Public-Schools is removing School-Uniforms. And, I’ll tell you how/why: Via the Educational/School-Environment, the Focus is supposed to be Learning & not what On-Brands/Off-Brands one dons. As Humans, we naturally judge Others as per what we see/view superficially. If there’s People whom’re all wearing the Same-Things, then the Concept of… Continue reading

My thoughts on Misogyny (The hatred & disrespect of Women):
Author’s note: I wrote this poem, to shed some much-needed light on how men (Muslim men particularly) have allowed this disgusting concept, that we know as Misogyny, to dictate how we are to treat the most precious & priceless of all of the creation of Allah: the Human female. Allah has placed inside the mind,… Continue reading

Sexualization via Animation
Sexualization via Animation isn’t something which is Brand-New. It’s something literally almost as old as Modern-Animation itself. Sexualization literally exists everywhere in the Anime-World, via every Anime-Genre. And, ironically, it’s the Easiest-Way to convey Sexualized-Themes to Youngsters, Children, etc. because Most-Persons view Animation as Innocent-Entertainment. But, sadly, it’s anything but “innocent”. While Certain-People simply view… Continue reading
