Islamic Guidance

It doesn't take much to realize how blessed we are as Muslims. Allah SWT has allowed us to have a direct and open relationship with Him 24/7, with absolutely no middle-man in between. As Muslims, we have two main ways of communicating with Allah SWT. The first way is through our five daily prayers, which are an obligation upon us. The second way of communicating with Allah is, by making dua (supplication). In contrast to prayer, there is no fixed time or place for making dua. Wudu is not obligatory for dua. We don't even need to have wudu to make dua. We are allowed to put our hands up and ask Allah for what we need - at any time and any place. This is a huge mercy from Allah SWT.

To Heraclius the Arabs were a backward people living in a desert wasteland. The Arabs he knew were an unsophisticated lot in constant conflict with each other, just barely eking out an existence under the unforgiving desert sun. The Arabs were not a military threat let alone a military power they were just a thorn in his side, But united for the first time under the banner of Islam, the Arabs unleashed a gale force wind that would sweep across the Middle East and blow as far East as China and West across North Africa.

The prophet said, “Our Lord, the Blessed, the Superior, comes every night down on the nearest Heaven to us when the last third of the night remains, saying: “Is there anyone to invoke Me, so that I may respond to invocation? Is there anyone to ask Me, so that I may grant him his request? Is there anyone seeking My forgiveness, so that I may forgive him?” [Bukhari].

Verily! We have sent it (this Qur'an) down in the night of Al-Qadr (Decree), And what will make you know what the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is?

Dua, also known as supplication or prayer, is powerful  in Islam. It is believed that making dua with sincerity and faith can bring about positive change in one's life and bring them closer to their Allah. Dua means of communicating with Allah and asking for help, guidance, forgiveness, and blessings. Many people believe that dua has the power to influence fate and alter circumstances, and it is seen as an important form of worship and spiritual connection. Speaker: Mufti Menk

The first people to enter, their faces will be glowing like the full moon. The next people will have faces shining like the stars. People will never have to use the restroom, spit, blow their noses. Their combs will be made out of gold. Their sweat will smell like musk. They will be in the physical form of Adam (PBUH)…60 feet tall. They will never disagree with one another, they will never hate one another.

There is a matrix that is around us, there’s a matrix on the good side and there’s matrix on the bad side, there’s a way of looking at the world, which makes you a true Muslim, and one that can see with the help of Allah SWT, the prophet S said, beware of the insight and the ability of a believer having an inner look at thing.  Lecturer: Shaykh Hasan Ali

O my servants, all of you are liable to err except for those whom I guide on the right path, therefore seek guidance from me so that I should direct you to the right path. o my servants, all of you are hungry (needy) except for those whom I feed, therefore seek food from me so that I may feed you. o, my servants, you sin by night and by day and I am there to pardon your sins, therefore seek forgiveness from me so that I should grant you pardon. o, my servants, you can neither do me any harm nor can you do me any good.

ALLAH SENDS THIS WHEN WE SAY AYATUL KURSI

According to Imam Al-Ghazali, who wrote in his Mukhashfa al-Qulub, Umar ibn Al-Khattab (RA) was asked why the day of ’Ashura was considered so noble. Umar (RA) listed a few events which had taken place on ’Ashura, including Allah, who created the skies and earth on this day, along with the Preserved Tablet. Allah created Angel Jibril (as). Allah created Adam (as) and Hawwa (as). Allah created Jannah. Allah enabled Adam (as) to live in Jannah. The first rain to fall on earth was on ’Ashura. Therefore, since before the beginning of human history, ’Ashura has been filled with significant events.
