If you grew up in Kumasi Zango in the 80s and 90s, this beautiful piece of art was common within the community, mostly in the afternoons and evening in Ramadan. At the time, the common chants made amidst corresponding drumming followed it.

At the time, the common chants made amidst corresponding drumming as heard in video below was: "Ga danda, shékara ya kai". To wit, "it's another year, 'danda' is here."
This must cause nostalgic feeling in some of you.

Is the case any different in the Zango community nowadays?

What the situation with our scholars and learners ought to have been instead the sorry state in which it actually is, currently. May Allãh awaken us before it's late.

The woman advises the young lady on the challenges that come with being a good-looking woman, especially for those who allow the beauty to get into their heads. She cited examples of how such ladies often end up being at the mercy of opportunistic men.
Golden advice to young, good-looking ladies.
Reminder.
A beautiful reminder. ❤
Learn to recite the Qur'an by yourself.

Salisu Mohamed scored his first World Cup goal last Monday against South Korea.
When his goal was being VAR-checked for possible infraction in the build up, the defender was sighted on screen squatting with a look of pensiveness on his face.
Many speculated somehow evidently that Salisu was saying some words of prayer, including famous Ghanaian Sports Journalist, Saddick Adams who suggested in a tweet that the prayer was "Ayaatul Kursiy", Quran 2:255-257.
In a group chat on WhatsApp, Salisu has confirmed [video below] that he was indeed reciting Ayaatul Kursi, jesting that Sports Obama is a wizard to have guessed right.
He spoke in Hausa.

End the hurtful remarks about Muslims
For a long time in secular schools in Ghana, teachers — mostly non-muslims — have used remarks like "we are not in makaranta" in an attempt to control noise in the classroom.
Have you ever paused to reflect over the possibility that those words offended the sensibilities of Muslims?
Spare some minutes and watch this video. And kindly share.

Muhammad Rasul-Allah, SAW. 💙
It's by Allah's grace, not because I'm better than anybody, that I don't lack anything. There are others far better. Money, I have been blessed with enough of it.
Houses, Allah has blessed me with. I have even given some out to other people. I'm not particulary interested in worldly, material stuff. My heart is always clean.

Shaykh Anas Tawfiq Ibrahim Al-Bakri. ❤️
May Allah preserve him.
The mosque is a place meant for more than just observing the five daily prayers. Today, the proliferation of mosques is further dividing the ummah instead of uniting them.
Against ideal practice as the Shari'a dictates, smaller mosques in the community observe Jummah prayers. Imams are becoming more selfish, less selfless.
- Imam Alhassan Issah, former Ashanti Regional GMSA Imam.
As a man, whenever your wife is moody and wants to feel like she's the family head, drop your ego, play along and let her be. Mood swings is normal in women.
When you wake up in the morning and she looks angry, guard your honour and head to kitchen and prepare your breakfast, iron your clothes and head out peacefully.
Hajia Saratu Abdur-Rahman, popularly know in Kumasi Zango as Hajia Awuraba, beautifully translating some verses from Qur'an Chapter 78 - Sura An-Nabai.
May Allah bless her with long life and good health.
