First: fleeing from Satan, which corresponds to taqwa (Mindfulness of Allah). Its other pillars are: remembrance (ذکر) إِنَّ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا إِذَا مَسَّهُمْ طَائِفٌ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ تَذَكَّرُوا فَإِذَا هُمْ مُبْصِرُونَ (201اعراف:), trust in Godتوکل (طلاق:۳)وَمَنْ يَتَوَكَّلْ عَ
Taken together, once these states are attained, the reality of seeking refuge comes into being. While a believer possesses these five pillars, Satan remains far away from him. Whether he says “I seek refuge in Allah أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنَ الشَّيطَانِ” or does not say it with his tongue, the essential thing is the inner state and the reality. If Satan even comes near such a person, he becomes one who is afflicted by Satan; just as when a jinn touches a person, that person becomes possessed or seized by a jinn.
Therefore, Iblis will not even dare to approach him at all.
So the first condition is that one must be among the people of taqwa. Those who become God-conscious, when devils attack their hearts… because they are God-conscious, the moment Satan comes near, they cling to the truth. As the verse says: “Indeed, those who are God-conscious, when a group of Satan touches them, they remember, and then they see clearly.” الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا إِذَا مَسَّهُمْ طَائِفٌ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ تَذَكَّرُوا فَإِذَا هُمْ مُبْصِرُونَ
Those who are pious, when a group from Satan touches them, they become reminded; thus, the people of taqwa are truly clear-sighted people.
بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ الْحَمْدُ للهِ الْمُتَجَلِّي لِخَلْقِهِ بِخَلْقِهِ، وَالظَّاهِرِ لِقُلُوبِهِمْ بِحُجَّتِهِ، خَلَقَ الْخَلْقَ مِنْ غَيْرِ رَوِيَّة، إِذْ كَانَتِ الرَّوِيَّاتُ لاَ تَلِيقُ إِلاَّ بِذَوي الضَّمائِرِ وَلَيْسَ بِذِي ضَمِير فِي نَفْسِهِ، خَرَقَ عِلْمُهُ بَاطِنَ غَيْبِ السُّتُرَاتِ، وَأَحَاطَ بِغُمُوضِ عَقَائِدِ السَّرِيرَاتِ.
Praise belongs to Allah, Who is Manifest before His creation through His creation, Who is apparent to their hearts through His clear proof;
وَالظَّاهِرِ لِقُلُوبِهِمْ بِحُجَّتِهِ
“And (He) is the One who is manifest to their hearts by His proof (argument/hujjah).”
- وَالظَّاهِرِ
“And the Manifest One” – the One who is clearly evident and apparent. - لِقُلُوبِهِمْ
“to their hearts” – meaning openly present in the inner awareness, not just outwardly visible. - بِحُجَّتِهِ
“by His proof” – by His signs, arguments, evidence (revelation, Qur’an, creation, miracles).
This phrase means:
- God’s proof and signs are so clear that they are, in effect, laid bare before people’s hearts.
- His hujjah (divine evidence) stands clearly in front of human consciousness, so that anyone who truly reflects in the heart can see the truth.
- The problem is not that the proof is hidden, but that some hearts refuse to look or turn away from it.

Experts agree that early childhood (0–7 years) is the most important and lasting phase for learning, character, and mental health.
- The first five years are the period of fastest brain development, laying the foundation for language, thinking, attention, and problem‑solving.
- Learning should happen mainly through play and active experiences, not forced drills. Through play, children build communication, moral values, and social skills.
- Love, justice, and clear boundaries at home and in preschool help shape responsible, peaceful, and confident adults.
- Physical activity strengthens motor skills, while secure relationships with parents and teachers support mental health and emotional resilience.

The holy Quran talks about ‘mustakbirīn vs. mustaḍʿafīn’
وَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ إِذْ جَعَلَكُمْ خُلَفَآءَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ عَادٍۢ وَبَوَّأَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَتَّخِذُونَ مِن سُهُولِهَا قُصُورًۭا وَتَنْحِتُونَ ٱلْجِبَالَ بُيُوتًۭا ۖ فَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ ءَالَآءَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ
Remember when He made you successors after [the people of] ‘Ad, and settled you in the land: you build palaces in its plains, and hew houses out of the mountains. So remember Allah’s bounties, and do not act wickedly on the earth, causing corruption.’
قَالَ ٱلْمَلَأُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ مِن قَوْمِهِۦ لِلَّذِينَ ٱسْتُضْعِفُوا۟ لِمَنْ ءَامَنَ مِنْهُمْ أَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ صَٰلِحًۭا مُّرْسَلٌۭ مِّن رَّبِّهِۦ ۚ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا بِمَآ أُرْسِلَ بِهِۦ مُؤْمِنُونَ
The elite of his people who were arrogant said to those who were oppressed—to those among them who had faith—‘Do you know that Salih has been sent by his Lord?’ They said, ‘We indeed believe in what he has been sent with.’
قَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱسْتَكْبَرُوٓا۟ إِنَّا بِٱلَّذِىٓ ءَامَنتُم بِهِۦ كَٰفِرُونَ
Those who were arrogant said, ‘We indeed disbelieve in what you have believed.’
فَعَقَرُوا۟ ٱلنَّاقَةَ وَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ وَقَالُوا۟ يَٰصَٰلِحُ ٱئْتِنَا بِمَا تَعِدُنَآ إِن كُنتَ مِنَ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ
So they hamstrung the She-camel and defied the command of their Lord, and they said, ‘O Salih, bring us what you threaten us with, if you are one of the apostles.’ (7:74-78)
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلرَّجْفَةُ فَأَصْبَحُوا۟ فِى دَارِهِمْ جَٰثِمِينَ
Thereupon the earthquake seized them, and they lay lifeless prostrate in their homes.
The desecration of the statue of H. ʿĪsā (ع) made big news, and yes, it is also a form of insulting him by an arrogant ruler. There was news about this issue as well. In Islam, the verse “whoever kills one soul, it is as if he has killed all humanity” highlights the sanctity of human life, but what is happening today is even more severe. Human dignity is sacred. Thousands of children, women, and men have been killed, and their homes have been destroyed. Why is no one rising against such an apartheid system?
Resistance
In the teachings of the Qur’an and Ahl al-Bayt (ع), resistance means standing firmly with truth, justice, and dignity in the face of oppression, falsehood, and corruption. It is not just political struggle; it is also moral and spiritual steadfastness, patience, and refusal to submit to ظلم.
In short:
Resistance = remaining loyal to Allah, defending the oppressed, and never compromising with falsehood, even when it is difficult.
