The Importance of Education and the Status of Teachers in Islam
The primary source of knowledge in Islam is Divine Revelation (Wahy) and the Sunnah of the beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

We must protect ourselves from the pitfalls of social media
Jalil narrated from the esteemed companion Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari (RA) that the Prophet (SAW) said, "Indeed, a time will come when a group from my Ummah will drink intoxicants under different names" (Abu Dawood, 3688; Ibn Majah, 4020).

How Muslims should behave during non-Muslim festivals
The communal harmony and tolerance among the people of this country is a rare example worldwide. That said, it cannot be claimed that misunderstandings or communal tensions have never occurred. However, if we examine incidents that have taken place in the name of religion, it becomes clear that most of them were not truly religious but largely political.

Islam evaluates the act of voting in three ways.First: From an Islamic perspective, when a voter casts his valuable vote, he is essentially giving testimony that the candidate is a qualified person. By voting, he testifies that this candidate is, in his judgment, the best, honest, and suitable individual. But if this testimony is false or baseless, then according to Islamic teachings, false testimony is a grave sin. It is a heinous act that can ruin both worldly life and the Hereafter.
