I havnt even watched the video yet, but just seeing the title I can say that I feel the same. Their standards of Islam is so much different to the Quran and Sunnah. It's such a shame to see hijabi bloggers starting their journeys with full acknowledgement to Islam, but once the fame hits, they forget Allah and do things like they want to. I honestly don't follow any hijabis because their influence is unfortunately real, and I do not want to fall into the trap of loosening my hijab or tightening my clothes. Thumbs up to you for being a great influencer at a young age without changing yourself (you're only becoming better!)
May Allah bless U sis
Your genuine concern and endeavor tobbe good muslimah
I agree
like who for example?
優さん every single hijabi who shows that bit of hair in the front or wear a lot of makeup
@@user-ww2lc1yo9c all of hajab model there is no hijab model
Not Muslim but I think there is a great lesson in this. The content you consume is what you become!
wish u read quran,all the best forevermore
lufayoub hopes stop being preachy
Some good Islamic channels for women that I've come across are Nafisa's pearlz and Honest Tea Talk. I also no longer watch the news (just read online now) or watch soap operas.
sanA w Yes, I love Nafisa!
Ugh I love her😍❤️
I love Nafisa, may we all see each other in the highest ranks of jannah. I don't know Honest Tea Talk but I'm excited to check it out. BarakAllahu fik for the recommandation
@@sistersalima6829 Ameen sister! Just came across the channel couple if days ago, thought I'd share since I thought they discussed some good topics. Please share any others you know with a similar Islamic standard :)
I love Nafisas channel as well :)
I relate to this alot. Unfollowed alot of instagrammers.
I’m not Muslim but I completely agree with you and also want to practice what you are saying. I haven’t had social media for almost 3 years now beside TH-cam, and I love it. I feel free in my mind and not influenced by what is going on in the internet world. Thank you for sharing.
thats so great! im 15 and ive been on social media since i was 11 and its honestly so soul sucking, its like everyday i see something that upsets me and then i cant stop thinking about it
that's so good I really want to take off from social media too and practice my religion and to live in peace social media really sucks
Try to become a Muslim. Not only in social media but i also got bash irl for wearing make up and for not covering my chest with my hijab. Sometimes it becme an issue when i wear shorts.
“Every day, stand guard at the door of your mind.” - Jim Rohn
I love it !!
I have struggled with which TH-cam Muslimah content is on par and which is misleading. Then there are the trolls who attack simply because they feel Muslimahs should not be doing videos. This pushed me away from the faith for a few years because I started believing that men are suppressors and that was not what I was interested in. It has only been recently that I have come back after reading books of Islam. I don't want to let trolls pull me away from what brings me peace. So I have been viewing and listening to my heart as to how the vlogs make me feel. I have unsubscribed to a few because I was not feeling the content was helping me to grow into the Muslimah I desire to be. Thank you for your open and honest conversations
❤️❤️ unfortunately some are from amongst the opinion that women shouldn’t be seen or heard. May Allah guide us.
I agree with you. I am born in a muslim family but have faced this behavior multiple times. Let me tell you my side;
My name ends with my mother's name. I never changed my name after my wedding. Although my husband wanted me to but I didnt. Secondly not only I but my sister as well. We have stood for against islam practices for women in the family, neighbourhood and workplace. I am training my teen aged daughter in the same way as my mother did. My family both in laws and parental side are proud of me. Infact, The whole next new generation and their parents like my ideas and they actually do more Islamic research than me.
Good luck and stay blessed
Ameen
AnnMarie Latimer if I could recommend you some great speakers on TH-cam are Tim humble , Nafisa pearls , Honest Tea talks , brewing talks 💗
@@zahraxabdi thank you, I do follow Nafisa pearlz and just recently subscribed to Honest Tea talks. I will check out the other two you mentioned thank you
i always felt this but never really heard anyone say this, I've seen modest influencers becoming less and less modest as well. You always mention the unpopular topics but someone has to do it because islam has rules and too often we bend them until it becomes the norm sadly. Love your videos may allah bless you.
I agree 😔
Loooove, loove, love this video. Valuable advice! Would love for you to share some of the influencers you do follow. X
You’re one of my faves ;)
@@SamanthaJBoyle Uck stop it you, ya wee charmer ;P xxx Feel the same though hun x
It reminds me of tafseer of surah Kahf where Allah (s) says that it will come a time where a mu'min must hold to his religion like if it's flood and you hold on to a tree. This is how difficult it will be to hold on the religion in the end times, and subhanAllah we are living in that.
your kids will leave islam if u live in the west, i promse
samuel rigaud
I don’t agree with you there. I was a kid when I came to Norway, but for me religion so important in daily life than my cousin living in my country. It’s all about hidaya from Allah
@@m.s.b4332 ask your parents why they didn't choose to live in a Islamic country. I'll wait
Mari Roza like hot coal but yes Subhanallah May Allah make it easier for us
@@zahraxabdi I doubt you'll go live under sharia but I hope you telling the truth
Same here habibti. 😔. Some things are too much fitna for me and I don't want to see it. I like to live in my bubble.
Yes, staying safe within a bubble is much safer.
@@HassanRadwan133 get off women channels and stop commenting on women you freak so obsessed with Muslim women channels and Muslim women in general go get a life freak.
"Living in a bubble" is just a saying. For me it means that I can see through the wall of the bubble because it's clear but it works as a shelter for me. However I still need to protect my bubble. Sometimes other people want to pop your bubble intentionally or u pop it yourself thinking it's better outside. If u find your happiness then u have your bubble. U can look after it or ruin it. Doubts of other people should not concern me. Ideals of happiness of others are not mine. Human mind is easily influenced, competitive and comparative. As people we tend to forget easily about our blessings. I want to be concerned with my own life and problems and do what I consider to be the best for my life without someone telling what's best for me. So yes, it is safer in one's bubble.
Why say that Hassan is a freak? He was just sarcastic.
Khātoun .H well said 🖒
I’ve had to unfollow many popular Muslim bloggers because they are openly sinning and appropriating it as average so glad you touched upon this topic
u sin too
samuel rigaud yeah but I think she means she’s trying to get away from sin so that she can stop sinning herself
@@fatcowyes5850 she will still sin no matter what, she just act pious behind her keyboard. Meanwhile sh'es going to dance on Nicki Minaj video "megatron"
samuel rigaud yes but it’s good that she’s atleast TRYING to get away from sin. And also, our prophet SAW would always assume the best in people, so you should do the same for her instead of assuming she listens to Nicki Minaj :)
@@fatcowyes5850 even u listen to haram music, be honest!
Been thinking about this lately. Some of them started with so much righteousness and proper Islamic values and now they are unrecognisable. The worst thing about this is that as they get caught up in the fame and everything, they have the audacity to give the most stupidest excuse that:
“Religion means different for different people. My practice of Islam is different than yours.”
Like heck no! Islam has clear set guidelines that apply to everyone and must be followed if you say you are Muslim.
I just choose to unfollow rather than go on their pages and hate.
Ugh I’m so happy you made this video. I really wanted someone to talk about this issue.
I really needed this. I've always wondered why I'm all over the place. I watch, read, and listen to almost anything. Becoming a full blown chameleon. A cycle of Praying and God conscious at times to near extreme haram at other times with nearly zero consciousness of God. I've been making the struggle (jihad) with self (nafs) more difficult. Make dua I'm able to drop the bad and keep the beneficial. Jazak'Allah
I totally agree with you! We absorb what we watch, which can be detrimental to the soul, who we hang out with, what we listen to, etc. You are one or the few you tubers who I enjoy listening to because in a digital age like this I feel we need more content like yours. Thanks for spreading great knowledge related to islam, staying true to yourself without compromising the deen, and sharing your stories. Yes, I really see how ig and other social media platforms are sometimes used for trivial matters....but to each his own we have the autonomy to make the choice of who we want to follow. JazakAllah kheir.
I love this little tea talks! Hope u continue the series inshallah x
Related to this video so much! I’ve been having these thoughts for a few years- you put my thoughts into words, thank you!
Finally someone who is talking about the truth. I actually agree with everything your saying. I noticed when I watch certain bloggers my personality starts to change. I start wanting to buy products purchased etc. Its a disease.
Me and my sis are watching this while drinking tea~ and we agree with you 💯 sis, sending you love! ♡
This is so true. I read that aswell and whatever I learn I implement in my life straightaway. It so easy. Whatever you are going to do, first think what it will do to your mind. Much love. xx
FINALLLYYYYYY🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. Thank you for making this video. I've been thinking abt this a lot
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and what you have learned. I like when you said you become what you consume. I relate to all the things you talked about. Its amazing.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻, I ve recently stopped series binging and I feel way better and I was able to make time for other tasks
thank you so much for this video. It took me back on the right track. I will "clean" my subscription list after this
Thank you for shedding light on this topic! A lot of these Muslim influencers have changed soooo much over the years the more they get got known. I feel they start trends that's obviously haram and literally get offended when one tries to advice them. They are leading a big part of our ummah astray. I will take your points into consideration. And you've gained a new subscriber. Love you for the sake of Allah swt ❤
Wow this video OPENED MY EYES! You're so right. Jazakallah Khair, my sister ❤️
Great video, makes so much sense too! Much love x
We can't control how we get influenced or to what degree we do but surely we can control what we consume and here lays our responsibility of taking good care of our mind and heart.
Great talk Sam truly enjoyed it and found it real beneficial, thanks ❤️❤️
I love this video! MashaAllah. I’m always unfollowing people and pages who don’t inspire me or who make my iman weak. I try to be mindful of my actions online and what I share because even though I’ve just started TH-cam, there’s still people watching who I could negatively influence and that’s such a scary thought.
there is plenty of islamist page for u sis
One of my favorite youtuber influencer is Aida Azlin.. She's Singaporean and her contents have been beneficial for me Islamically.. May Allah bless you 🙂
Fatma Nik OMG same I love her!!
@@sbegum29 great! I always learn on selfreflection, self improvement and self love from her.. Watching her videos have calming effect somehow 😊💖
I love Aida!!
Yes! She's so inspiring and motivational
Thank you for your videos, I have taken my Shahada and I am currently learning as much as I can about Islam. love your channel!
Honestly I'm loving these new videos... So chilled out and such a relaxing atmosphere I just feel like I'm having a conversation with a friend, MashaAllah may Allah bless you ❤️
Yayyyy I’m so happy about this!! I swear it made me smile so much to read this ❤️
Samantha, barakAllahu fik for this video! I realised that what I watched on a daily basis wasn't beneficial for me, sometimes even haram unfortunatrly but never got the click to be more conscious. I hope this video is going to be the start of making better choices.
instagram used to consume so much time of mine. that I would end up feeling depressed for the 3 hour wasted. you think to yourself "ill just quickly check but the next video and picture looks so interesting and tempting. and end up being there for hours. Alhumdulillah, I now deleted all my pictures and unfollowed wasteful bloggers and promised myself I would only check it every few weeks or month for no more than 10 mins. alhumdullah Ive done it for almost a year. life so amazing when you're not wasting most of your day checking other people non educational content. I use youtube a lot for islamic contents and lectures.
A M inshaAllah I'm also trying social media drained me im on day 3 without it,will be on again till I can control it
@@zurayda8778 I'm Currently in this rabbit hole, I pray I get out of it, It's soo draining and unhealthy to use a phone for that longs, I literally use for hours on end and end up feeling so shitty and that I wasted my life
asma sharif yes it can put you in depression I find myself being in a other world even when I'm not on it,these couple of days I'm just listening to lectures and nasheeds I really recommend haleh banani and try to read even just 2 pages of Quran it forces me to focus more,and block scheduling so I don't go through my day mindlessly inshaAllah may Allah grant us the strength to overcome this Ameen.
Great topic! I have felt the same for a while now and been saddened by the content some people put out there in the name of islam and had to unfollow some. Some I still do follow even some clear haram-things but I try to keep myself away from looking at them too often (but like you I do like some of the content). 👍
I must admit I followed you because I found you most honest conservative Muslim woman on social media. I actually don't understand why some Muslim bloggers they start with good content then once the fame hit their lives they just change the way they wear their hijab then showing their neck and wearing tight clothes. Just for the sponsored videos to gain money. Those are never a role model to Muslim women. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Exactly many people are slowly leaving the sunnah of hijab and act like it’s okay to uncover some parts of their awarah ( private parts of women ) . I think sister should read more about their deen to stay firm .
Found this channel, pure gold! New subscriber
This is a very important topic thank you so much for bringing this up I had to thank you b4 finishing the video lol
I can relate SO much to each and every word you have uttered. Just recently, I deleted my every social media account.. and honestly you have motivated me even more🤍
“Niqabi next door” is a good channel MashAllah. Lots to learn from her and she is modest
I have just subscribed to your channel, I have been a revert for 14 years now this year of 2020 I have made a dramatic change of not watching television and music and I started to pray the extra 12 Sunnah prayers, Al hamdu Allah . People say 2020 is the worst but it has became the best for me and I married my husband ❤️
That’s why I never miss any video/story because your content is amazing and I want to be like you ❤️😍
I was born and raised as muslim (Alhumdulillah). I also tried to practice islam from the very beginning but lately i have been not into it. I have been watching so many tv shows , movies and because of that reason i lost my path. I'm not praying , offering Salah. i feel like i lost myself . but after watching your video i realized why i skip salah why I'm not being able to do anything. I have consumed so much . but now i need to remove all these crappy things from my life. Thankyou! Keep up the good work.
jzk Samantha completely agree with you, jzk for sharing and your good sincere advice, popular culture affects our thinking and behaviour so subtly, it's hard but we do need to think before we consume unislamic shows, videos, music, books.
Your talk now inspires me really as I now realize how badly social media have influenced me because of TH-camrs i have followed actually in sa’a Allah i will reduce subscriptions to those people ,thank u ❤️
Great point. I get too busy to get into the muck..but the tricky bit is when I do have the time, I tend to waste it! Its not worth it
❤️i love your personality ,your modesty your channel...❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤗
beautiful video, prior to seeing this side of the video I was so lost.. I hit rock bottom and made these changes for myself and now that I did I think il speak about it as well. Its really scary what the wrong influence can do !
Thanks for making this video. God bless :)
I need friends like you. I've just started my journey and I'm already slacking because I don't have friends or sisters in Islam around me who are willing to open up and support newbies. So I've been relying on social media to stay motivated though it's drenched in haram stuff.
May Allah make it easy on you and bring goodness into your life ameen
Assalamu alaikum sister♡ I'm a sister and I was in your shoes too. You can add me on twitter if you have an account and In Sha allah I'll try to connect you to other sisters through those that I know ×× my @ is afreenxxxxx on twitter ×
Same here sis
Assalamu Alaikum sister, I pray that Allah fill your life with benefits, people who uplift you in Deen and the strength to turn away from daily trespasses. Amin.
Assalamualaikum sister , if you are on insta then do follow activislam they are very helpful in terms of islamic as well as everyday life things , and I'll be happy to be your friend afterall we all are sisters , may Allah be pleased with you and ease all your hardships .
Allahouma barriikk I just discovered your channel and falled in love with ! You seems to be an amazing person MachaAllah Allah y barik.
I have discovered the same notion than you SoubhanAllah : "you are the content you consume "
Thanks a lot to say it,
may Allah azza wa djal bless you and all of us ameen♡
Thank you!!! Ameen! ❤️❤️
Many really good scholars and preachers are active on social media which is a great thing.
Can we please APPLY this to both genders of Muslims please instead of just girls that everyone seems to be talking about? I used to follow Adam, Slim and Kareem on TH-cam but then they started doing lots of haraam stuff so openly like Adam's music video with that white girl, Slim constantly mentioning his love life and Kareem making inappropriate haram content. It's true Hijabi bloggers are becoming less religious but I think in general, once fame hits you people just lose the faith for the sake of popularity.
So true :) I only applied to females because they’re all I follow along with in the social media realm, but it’s definitely applicable to both genders!
I think you definitely hit the nail on the head! It's so easy to fall into the trap of social media and be influenced by what you see and hear around you. And I think the more Muslim women act in a particular way, the easier it is to copy as everyone around you is doing it😢😢
May Allah(SWT) make it easy for all of us
That's a very important subject that we rarely talk about
Love ur content so much❤️💖💖💖💖💖
Wonderful.
Enjoin the good and forbid the evil.
👍
It’s good day here as well Samantha I am drinking Coffee.
This is a inspirational platform
It's funny that I actually did just that a few weeks ago. Unfollowing some of my favourite influencers and creating an extra insta account for fashion brands and influencers made me consume less Instagram in general. I just scroll through my personal account once or twice a day or even once every other day. And the fashion account I only use when I feel like it or need some inspo. I really recommend doing this. It saves you a ton of time which you can use to focus on things that are more important to you.
This helped me so much thank you
I think the lesson here is to consume in moderation. I respect the idea that you are what you consume and to reduce the amount of lower quality content if you find it necessary... But even that exemplifies the moderation argument. I think that cutting out the more secular things that you enjoy isn't really the solution. And you shouldn't fault yourself for it, just remember that moderation is key in everything.
Totally agree!!! I've had some fav muslims on my list that I was following and over a time one after another I unfollowed, they started to loosen up on hijab , then the clothes evnetually they didnt even represent islam but fashion. It's really bad feeling becasue you watch their Iman go down and without realisng u are at risk becoming one of them. As much as we all like clothes I think it is wise to stay away from famous bloggers to protect our own faith.
i agree with you fully. You are what you consume. Always love your videos. I created this anime cartoon account because my favorite childhood cartoon is dragon ball z. I stopped watching my usual series so i'm trying something new and different. I've always loved dbz and used to re-watch the episodes once every 2 to 3 years. I feel like the modern day series is becoming a serious and dangerous trend tbh. Some are good, but majority of the series today especially on Netflix, it all attracts a certain type of audience, like there's either too much voilence, swearing or sexual content that i dislike.
Totally agree sister, well explained
I'll be back when my workday is over ♥️
Listened to it while working 😳 so I'm back to rewatch it now 🤷🏻♀️
Salaam, sister! Me too, I started unfollowing many influencers for the same reason. I'm not perfect, but some of those accounts didn't benefit me at all. Great tea talk!
Thumbs up to you for being a great influencer at a young age without changing yourself
Beutiful wisdom
this is so interesting becuz it's exactly what i've been thinking lately and going through. i am curious though, what do you recommend consuming now then for entertainment purposes? asking for a friend lol
You can read self help books!!! Listen to podcasts!! Watch Islamic channels of people that just simply don’t compromise their hijab & Islam!
Hundrend percent true!
Masha’Allah I related to this so much!
Literally choked on my tea when you were talking about choking on water 💀
Hahahahahahahahaha
I have recently had to do the same sis. I’ve realised the more I follow these bloggers and view their posts, the more I find myself moving away from the basics of modesty and islamic dress . I have had to unfollow certain bloggers just to ensure I am not influenced by the ‘hijabi trends’ which we may often see on social media. It’s a shame but I feel much better for it.
Omg very very true!! I binge watch anime and i literly feel like a sweet cute anime girl. My personality has literly changed. But i like this personality😄 so i carry on
Thank you for this jazak Allah Khayr
Awrwb dear Sam! Thank u for these videos... I'm new on your channel.
Looking forward to new Input from your side of the world.
Salamaleykum from Germany.
This video seriously helped me a lot thank u so much like Im senior in high school and there are Muslim girls but there are like so messed up like they are so haram I don’t even know what to say anymore I was becoming like them u saved me thank u 🥰🤷♀️💜🇵🇰
wow, so true Subhanallah
I have also experienced the same thing with
the books and things I watch or quotes I read, You unexpectedly become something that you are not
there is a saying that is like " If you live among people for 40 days you become them"
Love this good point
Assalamu Alaikum...nice across your channel.thanks...this is from Mindanao Philippines blogger new to this flat for too. Nice to hear from you as an inspiration Mabrook,!
"what you consume is what you become" very true, I am struggling with this today 🙄
Thank you sister for this nasihah 😢😍🙌🏼
This is funny to see I recently deleted my Facebook and people thought I was crazy. I got sick of scrolling through and seeing all the horrid news and stuff that wasnt good that those I considered friends would post. While I miss it in boredom my mind is more clear and I'm more interested in real life and finding something to do then wasting time scrolling. I've also found watching videos on TH-cam and not reading the comments below helps as well as they often have rude comments or people arguing.so I also generally dont comment so I dont get replies that are annoying and mess with my head I havent had cable in years and I just choose what I want to see on my phone.It's a sense of peace I cant explain.
I quit face book too...it's good to see some one thinking just like you 🌹 specially when the world crowded in insipidity
have u read quran,wish u live into a glee forevermore nikki
Want more friends like Samantha
Loved your topic. Agree with you. MashaAllah
wow i am so impressed . Masha Allah keep it up sister 👍👍
Gurl , while I was watching your video , I just went and unsubscribe to a lot of channel . I love you , I love your spirit , your so pose and elegant and we need more influencers like you . I just started my TH-cam channel and I hope to be a good influence on other people in general ❤️
You’re amazing!!!
Your so prettttyyyyy mashallah
And ur really right
I automatically thought you had deleted your favorite “dawah youtubers” I was brought to your channel when doing a search for “loving for the sake of Allah”. Other than dawah and scholarly videos I listen to vloggers doing How-to videos, health videos, world news and politics, including Muslim and non Muslim oppression in the world (to be informed give in charity and advocate for change. I also listen to general education videos. That’s all I need. Jazaki Allahu Khairan for that video I mentioned. I will post it to a closed Muslim Sisters group on Facebook.
I totally agree and it’s not just about hijab but so many other things esp our attitude and opinion of things that strats to change with time purely because of influencers
Agree with everything, wached Karsen’s video last week and since then did effort to unfollow people that dont benefit my Eman
Assalamualaikuum SickSam HAHAAH yr so funny and your videos are amazing. Love you man. May Allah grant you Jannatul firdaus.
It's amazing that you pronounced "haram" appropriately! Non Arabs usually don't know-or don't try- how to pronounce the letter h in Arabic " ح " .
Thanks :)))
So True❤️
It’s true you become what you feed your mind. Just like...you are what you eat
Bring your vlogs backkkkk
I want to start doing a vlog a week but I’m trying to get into the rhythm first!!
So accurate. I realised it know after leaving insta for few days and watching this video how much I changed. Going to unfollow them.
You’re literally almost the only youth we I watch. Another one I watch is Paris Amelia, she is awesome just like you ❤️
