🌟 Important lessons from the Prophet Muhammad's (peace be upon him) life 🌟

During the 3-year boycott by the Quraysh, the Prophet Muhammad and his followers faced severe economic and social sanctions 🚫. To counter this, he took several measures to protect Islam and his community to maintain their dignity , privacy and sovereignty πŸ’ͺ.

Some key measures include:

πŸ“ Relocation to a safe area (Shi'b Abi Talib) to avoid harassment

πŸ“ˆ Self-sufficiency, relying on their own resources

🀝 Support from allies (like Banu Hashim) for food and supplies

✨ Focus on spiritual growth, teaching and strengthening faith

In the new age of surveillance and targeting of Muslims & all those standing against genocide many lessons can be applied to our (digital) lives today πŸ“±:

It’s time to start our Digital Hijra:

πŸ‘€ Be mindful of online presence and info shared on social media.

πŸ’» Use technology wisely, aware of risks and benefits - are there alternatives out there which protect you better but still provide equivalent service. Particular focus here on sovereignty of data

🀝 Seek support from like-minded individuals and communities. Together we are stronger and able to make the digital Hijra easier

✨ Prioritize spiritual growth and a strong connection with Allah πŸ™
