Every Cloud Has Its Dark Lining – The Pessimism Predicament by Mohamedarif Mohamed Suleman

hroughout the ages, across countless generations, faith and belief systems have served as guiding lights, uniting communities and offering solace during tumultuous times. However, in recent years, an unsettling trend has emerged, where the essence of these belief systems – the messages of hope, compassion, and unity – has been overshadowed by an exaggerated reverence for their messengers. This shift has fostered polarization, eroding the very foundations that once fostered harmony among adherents.

The Mind-Body Connection: Achieving Mental and Physical Wellbeing in Ramadan

March 23, 2025

The most blessed month of the year has once again visited us, a guest in a hurry to leave us. May we be able to maximise the last 10 nights, among which the night of power (laylatul Qadr) is one of them. This essay would like to briefly explore the physical and mental well-being that can be achieved through the blessed month. From physical actions, starting with fasting itself, abstaining from food, improving the will power, and other actions such as prolonged prayers, extended Quran recitations and a variety of charitable acts, that allow us to come out of the month stronger spiritually, with a renewed strength.

This publication originally started as print magazine in Nairobi under the auspices of the Haydari Madrasah. Later on, with greater demand for online material and demand to suppress costs as well as reach a wider audience, TC on Friday, became an online "Friday supplement". In the early 2000s, the forum received the support of The World Federation, giving their blessings to the publication as well as helping in its broadcast.

Again, with passage of time, changes are imminent as we now move to a more interactive state - a blog. To this end, I seek the support of all members who can contribute their valuable time and written material to the forum, which is being read all across the world.

Thank you
