To Those Concerned,
Be grateful for the blessings you may overlook – your safety, health, and the gift of gathering to remember Allah. Care for your mosques and make them places where hearts feel secure. Your sphere of concern is not always your sphere of influence. Mind what truly concerns you, and leave what does not. Return to the Qur’an – a juz each day will anchor you when all else feels unsteady.

1. Start eating with asking blessings on the food and finish with a sense of gratitude.
2. Be mindful so that people (not just the Muslims but the others from different faiths as well) and their properties are safe and in a state of well being and peace around you.
3. Be a caretaker not only of your own species but also the animals and other living creatures. If you are someone who treats animals well it's a lot harder to demonize people and hurt them.
4. Maintain kinship bonds. The closer you are, greater the haq.
5. Build mosque in the neighborhood to create a caring and stronger community.
6. Keep the mosque clean, maintain necessary repairs and keep it in a state of beauty because the hallmark of Islamic civilization is beauty.
6. Speak beautifully, dress well and keep your surrounding clean and beautiful.
7. Do a juzz everyday.
8. Mind your own business and leave what doesn't concern you.
9. Don't engage in debate about knowledge because only Allah knows the best.
10. About the concerns about what happening in the Middle East - everybody has to look up to do anything that you can do in your capacity.
11. Have good opinion about others.
12. Don't be a the first person to open a door that was close. Speak in the presence.
14. Help widows.
