A SALUTE TO RESPONSIBLE MEN
In the Name of Allāh. O men! Behind every beautiful woman stands a responsible man. The truth is, grass won’t remain green if it isn’t watered. So, resist the temptation to be distracted by the greener grass on the other side. Instead, focus on your lawn and explore ways to enhance it further. Know that […]
A HOME FILLED WITH HONOR

SEEKING TRUE RIGHTEOUSNESS
In the Name of Allāh. Dear brethren, I’m here again to highlight a sobering reality: the basic acts of worship alone do not ensure salvation. Isn’t it flummoxing that a Muslim also engages in corruption? He performs various forms of worship, but he equally engages in some evil deeds – consuming others’ wealth unjustly, treating […]
REMEMBERING THE DAY
In the Name of Allāh. O people, remember the Day of Judgment that awaits us all when the heaven shall be rent asunder with (emerging) clouds, when the angels will be sent down with a grand descending, when the trumpet is blown, and when the graves will burst open. On that Day, all deeds will […]
ARE THEY ON THE RIGHT PATH?
In the Name of Allāh. There is a dangerous misconception now spreading through our ranks, a belief that Christians are also on the right path and that they are also worshipping God just as we do. This is a false belief, a belief that is not grounded in the Qur’ān or the Sunnah. Verily, the […]

PREPARING FOR THE NEXT RAMAḌĀN
In the Name of Allāh. With Allāh’s Will, this year’s Ramaḍān is some 100+ days away—it’s approaching quickly! Indeed, certain individuals are excused from fasting during Ramaḍān due to valid reasons, such as advanced age, being a traveler, or severe illness. However, depending on their specific circumstances, some of these individuals may need to make […]
BECOMING ALLĀH’S FRIEND
In the Name of Allāh. Imagine if Allāh Himself were to call you His friend. Who among us would not yearn for such a privilege, such a Divine Favor? Yet, to be His friend, His beloved, one must possess the twin jewels in the crown of righteousness, the twin great all-inclusive qualities. The first, Al-Eemān, […]
A MAJOR OF THE ASH’ARĪ
In the Name of Allāh. A man immediately departed from Yemen for Makkah to embrace the truth brought by the Prophet (ﷺ), which earned him the status of a Ṣaḥābi (companion).
