As someone new to Sunni Islam, there is one thing I have had a question on. I've been researching, but I couldn't yet find an answer. The question is: why is it that animal waste, where the meat is Halal, is considered Pure or Tahir? Furthermore, you're allowed to Pray Salah with animal waste on your clothes even if you have everything to change, but you can still deliberately Pray with those clothes on. Isn't this a big disrespect to ALLAH SWT? How can animal waste ever be Pure? it will be a big help if someone answers this JazzakALLAH Khairan

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته Just launched a small (for now) blog over at IhsanHub. I've been meaning to do this forever... I've decided to keep it low-pressure without a posting schedule. Just reflections and useful posts, and a bit of tech/productivity when the mood hits inshAllah. If you have feedback or ideas feel free to reach out via email (there's a contact form on the website). Come check it out.

🕋🕌 Working on a Hijrah-related project. Stay tuned. 🕌🕋

A few days ago I shared Ijazah, a free PTO optimiser for Muslims that stretches your leave around Islamic holidays. Since then I've shipped several updates: What's new: - PDF export: you can now download a printable PDF to put on your wall - Edit individual breaks: before exporting, you can tweak any suggested break directly from the results page - Local holidays: add one-off dates not covered by the built-in country data (e.g. regional observances, etc.) - An interactive world map showing where users are planning their leave from, check it out on the homepage! The app is fully free and you don't need to create an account in order to use it! https://ijazah.ihsanhub.io Would love any feedback, especially from countries I haven't tested thoroughly. Bug reports and feature suggestions welcome.
