9 signs that you are stranger:
1. when you get up for fajr when others are having sweet dreams and you pray asr when others are busy in office work, selling in markets.
2. when you pay zakat when others find it unfair.
3. when you avoid alcohol while others say "its ok to have some fun".
4. when you dont have boy/girl friend but others say "you are wasting your youth".
5. when you dont take bank interest when others think that its a profit on your savings.
6. when brothers dont show their thighs in market and sisters their hairs.
7. when you avoid watching movies and listening to music and others think that you are becoming too hard.
8. when your fear of Allah cant let you steal even 50 cents toffee from supermarket and others say that you are crazy.
9. when you want to have Islamic rule and others say " you are becoming backward".
Prophet (peace be upon him) said "Islam began as something strange and will return as something strange as it began, so give glad tidings to the strangers". (sahih muslim)

Listen carefully to this point. tomorrow the young sisters of today will be the mothers of the future, if today, you’re wearing tight clothes and make-up, and you’ve got your hair out,
Then tomorrow what example are you going to give to your daughter for when she grows up. What example are you going to give her? She’s going to say "Mum you did it, so why can’t I do it?"
thanks a lot sister .i wish you was absent for something good .allah bless you

Prophet (peace be upon him) said "Islam began as something strange and will return as something strange as it began, so give glad tidings to
the strangers". (sahih muslim)
Yes sister as our prophet (peace be upon him said Give glad tiding to the strangers ) it means
those who follow its commands. “Tooba (glad tidings)” has been interpreted as meaning Paradise or a great tree in Paradise. This shows that supporting Islam and following its commands may require leaving one’s homeland and being patient in bearing the difficulties of being a stranger, as was the case in the beginning.
In Sharh Saheeh Muslim, Al-Nawawi quoted al-Qaadi ‘Iyaad as saying concerning the meaning of this hadeeth:
“Islam began among a few individuals, then it spread and prevailed, then it will reduce in numbers until there are only a few left, as it was in the beginning.”
It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 2/170:
The meaning of this hadeeth is that Islam began as something strange, when the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) called people to Islam, but no one responded except a few here and there. At that time it was something strange because its people were like strangers amongst others and they were few in number and weak, in contrast to the great numbers and strength of their enemies who persecuted the Muslims. Then some of them migrated to Abyssinia, fleeing for the sake of their religion from tribulation and to save themselves from persecution and oppression, and the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) migrated at Allaah’s command to Madeenah, after suffering intense persecution and in the hope that Allaah would give him people to support him in his call and support Islam. Allaah fulfilled his hopes, granted victory to his troops and supported His slave. The Islamic state was established and Islam spread, with the help of Allaah, throughout the land; Allaah made the word of kufr lowest and the word of Allaah is (always) uppermost, for Allaah is Almighty, All-Wise, and honour, power and glory belong to Allaah, and to His Messenger, and to the believers [cf al-Munaafiqoon 63:8]. This continued for a long time, then division and dissent spread among the Muslims and weakness and failure increased gradually, until Islam once again became something strange as it was in the beginning. But this is not because of their small numbers, because at that time they will be many, rather it is because they do not adhere to their religion or cling to the Book of their Lord and the teachings of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), apart from those whom Allaah wills. So they become distracted and turn to competing in worldly matters, like those who came before them, and they fight amongst themselves for leadership. So the enemies of Islam found a way in and they colonized their lands, humiliated their people and treated them badly. This is the way in which Islam returned to being strange as it was in the beginning. sorry ‘ for my long comments ,but really u shared an interesting topic may Allah bless u
