Christians across the country are praying fervently for the speedy recovery of Sheikh Nura Khalid. I recently came across a prayer request flyer shared by a Christian pastor, calling on believers to pray for Baba's health. It made me pause and reflect: Is Sheikh Nura Khalid a Christian? The answer is no.

Baba is a Muslim. He worships Allah and remains committed to his faith. Yet his love for peace, justice, humanity, and harmonious coexistence has earned him the respect, prayers, and goodwill of people across religious divides.

This is a powerful reminder that kindness, compassion, and good leadership transcend religion, ethnicity, and social status. When a person dedicates their life to serving humanity, people from all walks of life stand with them in times of need.

My sincere prayer is that Almighty God grants Sheikh Nura Khalid complete and speedy recovery, and raises more leaders like him who will continue to promote peace, unity, understanding, and mutual respect among our people.

May God heal Baba and strengthen him. 🙏🏾

✝️WHAT THEY NEVER TOLD YOU ABOUT ST. VALENTINE😳🤔
_________________
They say Valentine’s Day is about roses, chocolate, and candlelight.

But it began with blood.

In the 3rd century, under the harsh rule of Emperor Claudius II, Rome was desperate for soldiers. The emperor believed single men fought better than married men, so he banned young men from marrying.

Love was declared illegal.

A priest named Saint Valentine refused to accept that. Quietly, in hidden rooms, he joined Christian couples in marriage. No applause. No decorations. Just vows whispered before God.

He believed love was not weakness.
He believed marriage was sacred.
He believed no emperor had authority over a covenant sealed by God.

They arrested him.

While in prison, tradition says he befriended his jailer’s blind daughter. He prayed for her, and she received her sight. Before his ex*****on on February 14, he left her a note signed: “From your Valentine.”

The next day, they cut off his head.

That is why February 14 is not about lust.
It is about sacrifice.
It is about covenant.
It is about a man who died defending Christian marriage.

Valentine is not the patron of casual romance.
He is the patron of courageous love, the kind that risks everything to remain faithful.

That is the real story behind Lovers’ Day.
