What Was Gained, What Was Lost

What Was Gained, What Was Lost by Mohamedarif Mohamed Suleman

Between the hopes of youth and the nostalgia of old age lies the winding corridor of human experience. It is a place not marked by clear milestones, but by subtle shifts – moments barely noticed at the time, yet monumental in hindsight. Between strength and weakness, between fullness and hollowness, the story of a life unfolds, asking a question both haunting and humbling: what was gained, and what was lost?

The Diversity of the Pilgrims: A Global Muslim Family

June 15, 2025

Each year, as Dhul Hijjah arrives, Muslims from every continent and walk of life flood into Makkah, drawn by a singular purpose. They arrive not to showcase their differences but to dissolve them, to stand shoulder to shoulder as equals before their Creator, united in the sacred rites of Hajj. At this moment, no one asks about your race, your wealth, your accent, or your passport. The Ummah, in all its diverse colours and cultures, becomes one beating heart.

Ahmad the Brave in Tanzania – Adventures of Muslim Kids Stories: Ep # 9

June 13, 2025

Trapped in the bathroom… and only Ahmad can help! ?? During a family trip to Tanzania, Ahmad’s mom gets stuck in a locked bathroom, and no one else is around to help. It’s up to Ahmad to think fast, stay calm, and find the courage to rescue her.

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
