When you become involved in the Dawah movement, there will be times when you may struggle to explain certain topics, and you may not be completely aware of the context. Additionally, a language barrier can be a problem if Arabic isn't your native language. The Prophet (ﷺ) told us in a Hadith that "There shall come upon the people a time in which the one who is patient upon his religion will be like the one holding onto a burning ember." (Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2260). But what's the best way to shield yourself against waswasa, doubts and become a coherent representative that explains misconceptions of our religion eloquently and clearly?
Abu Darda reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever memorizes ten verses from the beginning of Surat al-Kahf will be immune to the False Messiah.”
In another narration, the Prophet said, “From the last ten verses of Surat al-Kahf.”

I can attest that memorising the first 10 ayahs has helped me dispel truth from falsehood, Alhamdullilah, and I highly recommend everyone do the same. There is no doubt that we are witnessing minor signs of the end times unravel as the years go by. Whenever there is conflict within muslim-majority countries, our religion again is thrown into public debate without impartiality. The Qur'an is our companion, and in the verses will safeguard against dealing with any figurehead that misconstrues our religion for likes, comments and - to put it plainly - "clout." We've got this In Shaa Allah 💪
