4 measurements spanning 7 days, net +4. Dots are measurements; the straight line between them is drawn to join them, not to claim we know the path taken in between β snapshots are recorded only when a count changes, so gaps mean βno change observedβ, never βinterpolatedβ.

ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.
ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) Γ· viewsβ note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegramβs public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate. It is computed over the 16 of 20 measured posts that carry a reaction reading, and over those same posts' views.

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than βcorrectingβ the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form β 8.12K, 3.7M β so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.
Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded β read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities β π is thanks in one channel and mourning in another β so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one β 4.34K, 1.2M β so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 16 of the 20 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegramβs own count on each post β not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above β those same posts carry 128reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by βa reaction total printed elsewhere on the pageβ.
Measured over the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 20 July 2026 to 7 August 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.
It's become very common these days for people to ask for a ruling on a particular business venture or contract deal. My answer is always the same: without knowing the exact terms and conditions, no scholar can give a ruling.
Contracts are probably one of the hardest areas of fiqh, given the nature and complexity of certain deals. My advice to students of fiqh who want an in-depth, Islamic understanding of contracts β¦
The Trend of 'Anonymous' Students of Knowledge
A new problem has emerged online: students who want to study with scholars while remaining anonymous. Sitting in on an open lesson and benefiting from it has always been fine without anyone checking who you are, that was never the issue. But being counted as someone's student, or receiving their ijaza, is a different relationship, and it has never rested on anonymity.

Marrying Mermaids in Fiqh?
Why are mermaids mentioned in books of Fiqh if there have never been any proven cases of them?
Books of Fiqh were never designed to be read off the shelf by people with no prior training in the school and its principles. Without that firm grounding, the text sits completely stripped of context. In fact, an untrained reader will almost certainly supply their own context, misconstruing deliβ¦
That is the actual answer to the mermaid question, the Fuqaha weren't claiming mermaids exist any more than they believed the sun might set twice in one evening. These were mental stress-tests, built on the conviction that Allah's religion is complete, meaning there had to be an answer for everything that could conceivably happen until the Day of Judgment, whether that answer came directly from the Quran and Sunnah, β¦
Emotional Burnout of Graduates of Islamic Institutes
Those whose job it is to listen to people's problems are forced to carry the emotions of others without ever having walked in their shoes. I remember reading about this issue in Fiona Murdenβs book, Mirror Thinking. Doctors and nurses are at the highest risk for emotional empathy burnout due to the relentless nature of their daily work. Studies have shown that theβ¦
Self-development of a Madrasa graduate is fundamentally tied to a life of continuous study and research
One of my teachers, near the end of our graduation from ifta class, said: "Every year that passes without you developing yourselves and offering meaningful service to the wider community, whether as an Imam, teaching children, delivering 'Alimiyyah courses, giving regular lectures, writing articles or books, issuiβ¦
Saeed al-Nursi writes:
"When metaphor falls from the hand of knowledge into the hand of ignorance, it turns into literal truth ('reality') and opens the door to superstitions."
Beautifully sums up the problem with the crisis of lack of breadth and depth in understanding linguistic expressions in the Quran and Sunnah.
If it were not for the scholars of Usool and Balagha, I believe the Quran would have become a toy β¦
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @RootsOfKnowledge. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked β was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it β t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so β1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Citation-graph rank
Citation-graph rank β 1,014,892 of 1,481,217entries in the measured graph. A weighted position computed from the forward and mention edges below β republished posts weigh more than named mentions β and recomputed periodically, over the whole graph. Published only as this ordinal position, never as a score: a position is a fact, and a score printed beside one channelβs name would read as a verdict this register does not make. The two counts beneath stay separate for the same reason mentions are never summed with forwards anywhere else on this page β a named-by count costs nothing to manufacture. The top 100 by this measure, or how it is computed.
Forward network
Republished by
Channels on the register that have forwarded this channel's posts into their own feed.
Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.
