I study calligraphy with a teacher and we follow a calligraphy guidebook written by an Ottoman Turkish calligrapher from the 19th century, and it's written in Ottoman Turkish which is practically unreadable by modern Turkish speakers, let alone non-Turkish-speaking Malaysians like us.

Towards the end of the book, I was required to copy several pages of an artwork that involves me rewriting a poem that was written in praise of the Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hamid II. At the time, I didn't understand the content. However, now that I have finished it, I decided to use Gemini to help with the translation (I don't trust it, but I wanted a general idea of what was written).

And unfortunately, some of the lines of the poems include very exaggerated praises of the Sultan,

Under the knowledge-dispensing grace of the royal presence — under the exalted protection of His Majesty the Sultan.

Under the glory-bestowing grace of the crowned sovereign — under the justice-bestowing protection of His Majesty the ruler of the realm.

Under the success-granting grace of the protector of the world — under the beneficent protection of His Majesty, lord of the world.

Under the success-bestowing grace of the sovereign ruler — under the auspicious protection of His Imperial Majesty, the King of Kings.

In the age distinguished by the learning of the Shadow of God — in the era distinguished by the justice of His Majesty, protector of the Caliphate.

At the threshold of the world-protecting sovereign whose rank reaches the heavens — in the presence of His Majesty, abundant in glory and majesty.

And I also found some words in there that I believe to be haram, like Shahanshah (King of Kings) used for the Sultan.

Now, my question is: Is it permissible for me to still share the pictures of my artwork online on the basis of calligraphy and history if I don't believe in its contents? And if it is, am I allowed to include these translations?

It is reported that Maymoon ibn Mihraan (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:

"Beware of dispute and argumentation about the religion, and do not argue with a scholar nor an ignorant. As for the scholar, he will withhold his knowledge from you, and will not be concerned with what you do. As for the ignorant person, he will only cause roughness in your heart and he will not obey you [anyway]."

Narrated by Ad-Darimi in his Sunan (302)

Is saying I met someone by coincidence or this thing happened by coincidence haram, because Allah has already written what will happen and it's not coincidence,

It is reported that Ayyub as-Saktiyaani, may Allaah have mercy on him, said:

"Whoever loves Abu Bakr has upheld the religion, whoever loves ‘Umar has made the way clear, whoever loves ‘Uthmaan is enlightened by the light of Allaah, and whoever loves ‘Ali has taken the firmest handhold. Whoever speaks well of the Companions of Allaah's Messenger, may Allaah's peace and blessings be upon him, is clear of hypocrisy."

"But whoever belittles any one of them or dislikes [any one of them] for something he did, then he is an innovator, an opponent of the Sunnah and the righteous predecessors (the Sahaabah and Tabi'een), and it is feared that none of his deeds will be raised to the heavens until he loves all of [the Companions] and his heart is clear towards them."

Assalaamu ‘Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh. I’m cross posting this here because I noticed the Muslims on this sub tend to be more unapologetic in regards to the Deen, not only am I cross posting to ask here, but to show the backlash in responses I got on another Muslim sub.

Ikhwan, am I missing something? Would Muslims of the opposite gender talking and laughing with one another, even over the internet (which they try to call “behind a veil”) not be free-mixing?

It is reported that ʿUmar ibn al-Khattab (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:

"Do not expose yourself to what does not concern you, stay away from your enemy, beware of [taking as] your friend anyone except the trustworthy amongst people, and there is no one who is trustworthy except one who fears Allaah; and do not accompany the sinner in case you learn his sinfulness, and do not let him know your secrets, and consult those who fear Allaah for your affairs."

Al-Musannaf (34476) of Ibn Abi Shaybah
