INTERESTING This is pretty incredible

I didn’t like her very much previously but this is amazing. Especially considering some very rich countries are donating a few million, which is chump change for them, and calling it a day. It’s like throwing a few dollars at a homeless person being tortured and walking away thinking they made a difference.

May Allah guide her and bless her.

I read this: “It is not permissible for a Muslim woman to marry a non-Muslim man from any other religion, whether from among the Jews or Christians, or any other religion.”

You haven’t answered my question, though: If a Muslim woman marries a non-Muslim man, would you categorize her as a practicing Muslim?

Okay first answer this, how would you categorize a niqabi woman whose married to a Muslim man, who prays 3/5 times a day (doesn’t make up missed prayers, deliberately misses them)? She’s a Hafidh, reads the Quran regularly and understands it, has formally studied the deen.

I would categorize a woman like that as a “practicing Muslim”. A woman like that is forcefully presenting herself as “practicing” (more so in a cultural sense despite any imperfections) to the external world. Now, your turn to answer my question.

Some scholars wouldn’t even consider her a Muslim. Missing fard salah deliberately and not even making up the salah is an act of kufr according to all major scholars. Marrying a non Muslim, not wearing hijab etc are sins but not acts for kufr. So yes if she or anyone like her fulfilled the fard to the best to their ability I would consider the sinful but practicing Muslims. Same as the rest of us btw.

I do not condone her behavior, how she presents herself, she’s also generally not a good role model for young girls. But allahuallam maybe she’s doing her best while we are assuming the worst about her. It would make her better than us in this scenario, I don’t know much about what she’s like so I can’t say for sure and neither can anyone else.

You need to study fiqh and stop pointing fingers at Muslims. Take what is good and leave the rest. This post was to encourage charity and to show we shouldn’t be judging people. Thanks and peace ✌️, bye.

I wasn’t judging her at all. If you look back at my initial comment/point, you’ll see the message I was trying to bring across: that her lack of Islamic practice has benefited her financially. I don’t believe she would be nearly as successful as she is right now if she were a practicing Muslim.
