Faith in Practice: Balancing Religious Rituals with Modern Life

January 15, 2026

Life today moves at a ridiculous pace. Time gets chopped up; attention scatters. People chase productivity and forget to breathe. In all this rush, religious rituals can start to feel like interruptions. Prayers get pushed back, fasting feels extra tough, and spiritual focus slips away in the glare of screens and endless to-do lists. Plenty of Muslims carry this quiet guilt—not because their faith is weak, but because they’re just trying to keep up with a world that never slows down.

The Oneness of God’s Being

September 13, 2024

The notion of the Oneness of God, in contrast the notion of there being One God, is at the heart of several philosophies of the religions of the East and West.

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
