Edit: Everyone please make a short introduction post so we can all get to know eachother Welcome to the community! This space is designed to bring together a pool of Muslim entrepreneurs, agencies, and video editors who are passionate about producing high-quality, halal content. In a world where so much of the editing industry is filled with haram elements like music, inappropriate visuals, and haram content, it’s time for a change and I'm here to make that change happen, bi’ithnillah! Whether you’re just getting started with editing or already working with clients, this community is the perfect place to network, share knowledge, and support one another. I’ll be discussing the importance of halal video editing, sharing tips, and providing resources. 👉 Coming Soon: I’m working on launching a community where I will personally teach Muslims how to build a consistent 4- to 5-figure income through halal editing. 🏆 📢 Stay tuned for updates and make sure to get involved from the start! JazakAllahu Khairan for being part of this journey. Let’s make a difference together! 💪

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu, I’m curious to know: what got you started with video editing? Was it a passion for storytelling, wanting to share your message with the world, or maybe just experimenting with cool effects? Share your story in the comments!

I scored my second paid client, just $30 but I am proud Tiny wins add up and this isnt just a one off, client wants me to edit videos consistently every month Alhamdulillah ☝️

SubhanAllah, your story is inspiring @Diederick Smets May Allah continue to guide and bless your journey 🤲 I’m also deeply interested in 100% halal video editing, it’s honestly one of the biggest challenges I see in the creative space. So many incredible edits… but with music, inappropriate visuals, or elements that don’t align with our deen. Like you, I want to make a real difference by helping create content that brings barakah, not just views. Your idea of building a community around halal editing and earning a halal income through it? That’s exactly what we need right now. And I’d love to be a part of that, bi’idhnillah. Please keep sharing your progress, and if you ever start a group or community around this mission. I’m in, insha’Allah! May Allah make your hijrah easy and open many doors for you along the way 🌙✨

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu, I just wanted to share a bit about my journey and what I’m working on. My name’s Diederick (Umar), and I’ve been into video editing since I was like 10 years old. I started with basic stuff on Movavi Video Editor nothing fancy, just learning the ropes. SubhanAllah, it’s crazy how far I’ve come since then. When I was around 13, I was going through some tough stuff dealing with school problems, getting bullied, and just feeling lost. Alhamdulillah, that’s when Allah subḥānahu wa ta'alā guided me to Islam, and honestly, it was the best decision of my life. For the past year and a half, I kind of lost track just wasting time and chasing dopamine, to be honest. But recently, I decided to get serious about video editing again. I’ve been putting in hours and hours at my PC, learning and improving my skills. The most important part for me is making sure it’s all done in a HALAL way so I can get the barakah from Allah (swt). Right now, I’m 15, and Alhamdulillah, I’ve had the chance to work with some big names and companies. I’m also working towards making Hijrah, hopefully in about 10 months, depending on when I can do my school exams bi’ithnillah. One thing that really bothers me, though, is seeing so many people making amazing edits but using haram stuff like music, musical sound effects, or showing faces (eyes). I want to make a change, insha’Allah, and teach other Muslims how to edit videos in a way that’s pleasing to Allah subḥānahu wa ta'alā. I’m planning to build a community where I can teach how to make a stable 4- to 5-figure income through halal video editing, bi’ithnillah. I want to help more Muslims create content that earns the pleasure of Allah while also being successful in this dunya. Jazakumullahu Khairan for the support and encouragement. Please keep me in your duas, and I hope to benefit the Ummah with this!
