Binterik On Dawah

What kind of Muslim are you? If you've ever been asked that, or been judged by a fellow Muslim,  listen to Sakina Binterik refute the use of the statement "We judge by what's apparent".   Very, few of us are called upon to make a ruling about another Muslim.  If we aren't then we leave alone judging others, offering unrequested advice, shaming and humiliating other Muslims.  She reminds Muslims how and IF correcting others should be done. Spoiler: probably not.

Has anyone told you that you're being rewarded for staying to be harmed over and over?  If that's happening, it should be prevented, either by helping the oppressed or stopping the oppressor.  Sakina Binterik debunks the idea that we are rewarded for allowing ourselves to be abused by other Muslims.

Us hijabis are all just wearing one, big hijab together. If you're out, and your hijab slips off, your sisters are the first to help you put it back on. So how come we aren't doing that with digital images? Sakina Binterik discusses that if we would pull our sister's hijab back on  if we saw it slipped off, why we don't respect our sisters' hijab online and on our phones.

Fallen in love? With a non-mahram, you've fallen into destruction.  While it might taste sweet and bitter, and deliciously heartbreaking, you're attaching someone to your soul. And it will hurt so much when they are ripped away. Sakina Binterik discusses the harms and the solutions to get out and get away from the vices that drag the Muslim into destruction.

Here's something you're not ready to hear: people-pleasing is hidden shirk.  That's why it makes your life miserable, prevents you from success and beneficial relationships, and is at odds with your worship of Allah. Sakina Binterik discusses this trick from Shaytan and how to tell if you are really doing things for the sake of Allah, and how to switch intentions.

Are you one of the Muslims who are confused when they love Islam, but don’t like Muslims? Does something feel off when you’re reminded ‘for the sake of Allah’, and not motivated in the least? Join Sakina Binterik as she draws on her decades of experience in dawah,  discussing mistakes made in dawah each week, and their remedies. You will see and hear her unlike you have before: raw and ranting, speaking not from a textbook but from the heart, to instill love of Islam and of Muslims in the ummah.

Sakina Binterik examines the abuse of hadith in telling those in abusive situations 'It could always be worse'. She examines that result, and what the cycle of abuse continues to tell Muslims: you're a bad Muslim if you don't grin and bear it.  After all, it could always be better, too.
