The Ink That Outlives Blood by Ummulbanin Yawerabbas Mahershah

When we speak about sacrifice in Islam, our hearts are naturally drawn to the image of the martyr. There is something deeply powerful about a person who gives their life for truth. It is immediate, visible, and unforgettable.

Creating Lifelong Learning Communities in Our Times

We live in one of the most information-rich periods in human history.

A person today can listen to a lecture while driving, attend a course taught thousands of kilometres away, read an entire library on a small device, learn a new skill from a video, and find an answer to almost any question within seconds. Knowledge has become abundant, portable and constantly available.

And yet there is a paradox.

How Preachers Can Evaluate the Effectiveness of Their Teachings

When we gather in the majlis, we are entering a sacred space that was always meant to be more than ritual. It is a place of remembrance, yes, but also a place of transformation. The Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him and his family, taught that gatherings of remembrance must also be gatherings of knowledge. The majlis is meant to awaken our hearts, sharpen our minds, and strengthen our resolve. Yet we must ask ourselves: are our majlises truly fulfilling this prophetic mission, or have they become limited to emotion without change?

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
