The Prophet’s Teaching on Family and Community in The Digital Age

October 12, 2025

The digital age has radically transformed how we live, forging unprecedented connection and ways to communicate. With social media, smartphones and constant notifications, the world feels more accessible than ever. Yes, it’s ironic that many people find themselves struggling with feelings of isolation and detachment. Amidst this ever – changing landscape, the enduring wisdom of Prophet Muhammad (saw) shows us a way forward, towards finding balance. His teachings remind us of the utmost importance of family ,community, and moral integrity in all aspects of life, even the digital world we now live in.

Spiritual Ostrichism: The Prophet, Social Justice, and Our Selective Memory by Dr Hasnain Gulamali Walji

Every Friday, the khutbah drums into us the horrors of Jahiliyyah. That dark age before Islam. Daughters buried alive. Slaves whipped under the desert sun. Tribes killing each other over camels and water wells. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) came, they tell us, and shattered the idols of ignorance. He brought justice. He brought equality.

Fasting – A Body-Mind-Spirit Healing
by Dr Sheikh Mansour Leghaei

llah the Almighty says in the Qur’an:

“And seek (Allah’s) assistance with Patience and Prayer; and truly it is extremely heavy and hard except for those with full submission. Who are certain that they are going to meet their Lord and that unto Him they are going to return.” 2:45-46

Understanding Mental and Physical Health

Understanding Mental and Physical Health by Syeda Sehar Asad.

When we come across such a topic, we end up mixing both, not realizing that mental health is not the same as physical but both can effectual – mental can affect physical and vise versa.

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
