In the Name of Allāh. Who are the most undesirable women? The Prophet described: “The worst women of yours are those who display their beauty to strangers (Mutabarrijāt) and are arrogant, and they are hypocrites, NONE of them will enter Jannah EXCEPT the likes of red-legged crow (a rare bird), i.e., only a few.” [as-Sunan…
In the Name of Allāh. With only one Friday left until the completion of this blessed month of Ramaḍān 1446 A.H, a sense of unease settles on our faces. This could potentially be one’s last opportunity! Today, our Masajid overflow with worshippers as we gather to connect with Allāh. Oh, the magnificence of Ṣalāh Al-Jumu’ah…
In the Name of Allāh. Special appreciation goes to Allāh for the gift of Islām. This morning, let’s discuss ‘Eid. In Islām, there are only two yearly legislated celebrations: ‘Eid al-Fiṭr, which follows Ramaḍān, and ‘Eid al-Aḍḥa, celebrated after the rites of ‘Arafah. These events hold immense significance for Muslims, who should prioritize them over…
In the Name of Allāh. Following up on our previous discussion regarding Zakāt al-Fiṭr, it’s important to dispel the misconception that only specific foods given during the Prophet’s (ﷺ) time are permissible. The idea that foods like rice, beans, wheat, oats, corn, or other naturally storable items are unacceptable simply because they weren’t those specific…
In the Name of Allāh. As this year’s blessed month of Ramaḍān approaches its end, it is a commendable tradition to bid farewell to it with ‘Eid, which has three primary obligations: giving Zakāt al-Fiṭr, participating in Dhikr (which includes saying Takbīrat), and performing Ṣalāh Al-‘Eid. I will start with a discussion on Zakāt al-Fiṭr,…
In the Name of Allāh. One remarkable habit of highly effective individuals is SYNERGY. As Allāh states: “…Help you one another in Al-Birr and At-Taqwā (virtues, righteousness, and piety); but do not help one another in sins and transgression…” [Sūrah Al-Mā’idah (5): 2] The foundation of both religious and worldly prosperity lies in cooperation for…
In the Name of Allāh. Subḥānallāh! I struggled to hold back tears as I read about this remarkable hero, warrior, leader, and embodiment of truth. He was among the earliest individuals to embrace Islām, making two migrations — first to Habasha (historically known as Abyssinia, present-day Ethiopia) and later to Madīnah — for the Sake…
In the Name of Allāh. It can certainly be said that envy arises when an individual is elevated above others in terms of status and moral virtue. Envy, by definition, is the desire to see someone stripped of their blessings. Yet, when such blessings are lost, the envier experiences no actual gain. A perfect example…
In the Name of Allāh. As one delves into the historical accounts of notable figures from the past, it becomes clear that among the most significant individuals to have lived are none other than the cherished companions of the Prophet (ﷺ). Their virtuous and exceptional qualities earned them the distinction of being the greatest people…
In the Name of Allāh. Sin is fundamentally destructive, and therefore, we should abstain from it. Shaykh Ibn Bāz (Raḥimahullāh) notably stated, “An evil deed committed in Ramaḍān is a greater sin than an evil deed committed outside it.” [Majmū’ al-Fatāwā 15\446] Nevertheless, there are seven significant and particularly harmful sins that we must be…
