What an example of some Muslims who value worldly knowledge over knowledge of the Deen, who prioritize the Dunyā over the Ākhirah, and who place more importance on the fleeting pleasures of this life than on the eternal reward of the Hereafter. Why is it that some Muslims possess extensive worldly knowledge yet remain unaware…
In the Name of Allāh. Understanding the true essence of pride is something that can only be comprehended through Allāh and His Messenger. Consider this narration: ‘Abdullāh Ibn Mas’ud reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) stated, “No one who has the weight of a seed of arrogance in his heart will enter Paradise.” When a man…
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…
In the Name of Allāh. The echoes of the Day of Reckoning reverberate within us, a relentless beat that intensifies with each day that goes by. The curtain is about to be lifted on the scene of judgment, as the nursing mother forgets her child and the expectant mother drops her fetus. On that Day,…
