Introduction
On this page you will find our privacy policy and what information do we collect and why. We are very transparent with our policies as we believe that we will be asked (on the Day of Judgement) for every action we take.
Prophet ﷺ said
الْمُسْلِمُ أَخُو الْمُسْلِمِ لاَ يَخُونُهُ وَلاَ يَكْذِبُهُ وَلاَ يَخْذُلُهُ
The Muslim is the brother to the Muslim, he does not cheat him, lie to him, nor deceive him.
Jami' at-Tirmidhi 1927 (Hasan)
