Aboo Maryam al-Baakistaanee

Ibn Aṭhar, 27 yrs old, trying to adhere to the Manhaj of Salaf-us-Ṣāliḥ, travelling at the speed of Qadr-Allāh, Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “.. Whoever lives among you will see many differences, so beware of newly invented matters for they are misguidance. Whoever sees them must adhere to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the upright, guided successors (Khulafā`). Bite onto it with your molar teeth.” ● [at-Tirmidhī] London, UK

🖋 Etiquette Of Standing At Door كيف يقوم عند الباب ؟

ʿAbdullāh b. Busr RaḍiAllāhu-ʿAnhu said:

“When Prophet would come to someone’s door seeking permission to enter; he wouldn’t stand facing it, rather he would stand to the right or left of it,

If he was given permission he would enter or else he would walk away.”

● [الأدب المفرد للإمام البخاري ١٠٧٨ ، حسنه الألباني]

The scholars mention that the wisdom behind not facing the door directly is that when it opens up; the gaze of the person seeking permission should not fall upon anything inside the house which is not permissible for him to look at!!

And Allāh knows best.

Assalaamu alaykum, I know you favour the keto diet and I am skinny fat, everything else is fine but no matter how well I eat or exercise my stomach fat won't budge. Thinking of doing keto diet, trouble is no idea how to get my 70% fat in. Good fat sources? Used to having minute % of fat so I have no clue how I'm going to manage to get that amount of fat in. What do you typically eat for this portion day to day? Would really appreciate help so much. Baarak Allaahu feek

Waʿalaikum As Salaam Wa Raḥmatullāhi Wa Barakatuhū,

I stick to Keto diet as it helps me a lot with not just keeping myself healthy and fit but also it reduces inflammation for me, carbs and sugar give me all sorts of troubles,

Just kindly make sure you eat good carbs like veggies and wholemeal bread or pita but not going beyond 20 to 30 net grams of carbs per day, increase it to 40 net grams if you train heavily,

As for healthy fats I consume a lot of butter and coconut oil and olive oil in food, with 1600 calories a day I can easily make up 67-70% of diet with just fats, try bullet proof coffee, you can easily find its recipe online, I hope this helps.
