20 posts held, back to 22 July 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
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) ÷ views— note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s 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.

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 “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.
Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — 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 — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ، أنا أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ، ثنا أَبِي، ثنا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الشَّافِعِيَّ، يَقُولُ: «أَصْحَابُ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ جِنُّ الإِنْسِ، يُبْصِرُونَ مَا لا يُبْصِرُ غَيْرُهُمْ» Ḥarmalah ibn Yaḥyā said: I heard ash-Shāfiʿī say: "The masters of Arabic are the jinn among mankind; they perceive what others do not perceive." [Ādāb ash-Shāfiʿī wa Manāqibuhu p. 112] Tr: Umm ʿAbdirraḥmān…
Be careful of relying on translations and making them paralyze your journey of learning Arabic. Any non-Arab claiming to seek knowledge must have Arabic as a priority. Even Arabs need to learn it, so what do you think about non-Arabs? No amount of seeking knowledge through translations will compensate learning the language and seeking that knowledge properly. Sure, you need the necessary knowledge like your praye…

Summary of the Answer to Question 15: Question: Is it permissible to take a picture of yourself to send to an employer so they can see what you look like? Taking pictures of animate beings is from the major sins due to the many authentic aḥādīth concerning it. Among them is the Prophet ﷺ cursing the picture-maker, informing us that they will be among those most severely punished in the Hellfire, and that they will …
Summary of the Answer to Question 14: Question: Is it permissible to purchase products that have pictures of animate beings on them? Is it permissible to pray and read the Qurʾān in a room containing such products? If you are able to buy products that do not have pictures, then do so. Do not bring anything with pictures into your house, because the angels of raḥmah do not enter a house containing pictures of animat…
Summary of the Answer to Question 13: Question: What is the ruling on posting pictures of sisters and videos, including videos of sisters reciting the Qurʾān with their faces uncovered? This act is impermissible. As you know, picture-making is from the major sins. As has been mentioned repeatedly, there are many evidences for this. “إن أشد الناس عذابًا يوم القيامة المصورون” “Those who will receive the most severe …

Summary of the Answer to Question 12: Question: What is the ruling on rejecting someone for marriage due to his beliefs regarding picture-making. Is this considered to be from extremism? Some say it’s only an issue of fiqh. Sheikh ʿAbdul-ḥamīd az-Zouʿkary: The woman can marry whoever she wishes and she can reject whomever she wishes. However, it is always advised that she chooses the person who is stronger and more…

Related: Our Shaykhah Umm Zayd حفظها الله also mentioned a story that reinforces this point. She told us about one of her students who was diligent in seeking ʿilm until she got married. Then, after having her first child, she stopped attending lessons, explaining that she was too busy and mentioning one excuse after another. Some time later, the sister came to the Shaykhah seeking advice. She complained of feelin…
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @uponthepathofsalaf. 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 ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 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 — 215,869 of 1,480,688entries in the measured graph. A weighted position computed from the forward and mention edges below — republished posts weigh more than named mentions — 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 channel’s 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 — a named-by count costs nothing to manufacture. The top 100 by this measure, or how it is computed.
Republished by
Channels on the register that have forwarded this channel's posts into their own feed.
Republishes
Channels on the register whose posts this channel has forwarded.
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.
Named by 3 registered channels — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
Names
Channels on the register whose handles appear in this channel's posts.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
A live page changes as we take new readings, so a citation should name the measurement it is based on, not just the URL. The line below cites the subscriber count as measured 7 August 2026 — this entry's latest reading, not the date you are reading this.
