In a recent Q&A session filmed at Antwerp, Belgium, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan addresses two pressing contemporary challenges facing Muslims today. First, he tackles workplace ethics – how to provide necessary professional feedback about colleagues without falling into backbiting (ghibah). Referencing Quran 25:72 (“They do not bear false witness”), he explains the Islamic standard for truthful testimony, emphasizing the crucial difference between stating objective facts and injecting personal emotions. The practical guidance includes maintaining neutral tone, sticking to verifiable facts, and when in doubt, informing colleagues beforehand about what will be shared.
The second part addresses the modern dilemma of sharing Islamic practices and good deeds without falling into showing off. Drawing from his 25 years of public speaking experience, Ustadh Nouman demonstrates how to share authentically – focusing on how practices can help you rather than presenting yourself as perfect. He advises maintaining the same sincerity you would have in private conversations, framing social media posts as “this helped me” rather than “look how good I am.”
