We live in an age where judging others has become the norm and mocking people for their mistakes has become a huge pastime. While some of us might do it unintentionally, others might fall into this out of ignorance or even arrogance. Calling ourselves the Ummah of Prophet Muhammad

Quite often in this quest of learning the deen and implementing it in our lives, we become over judgemental of our own brothers and sisters.
