Al Madrasatu Al Umariyyah

What if the thing you are most proud of ends up costing you the most? The poet's voice turns personal here. Almost uncomfortably so. A name is called, not shouted, but called with expectation. As if the listener should already know better. As if the invitation had been made before, and quietly ignored. In Episode 4 of the Ta'iyyah of Abu Ishaq al-Ilbiri, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble opens verses that challenge how we think about fortune and intelligence. Not in abstract terms, but in how we choose what deserves our time, our effort, and our attention. A stark comparison sits beneath the words. A life measured in decades, set against a standing that stretches beyond imagination. Suddenly, the question isn't what you've gained, but whether you've used your mind well enough to recognise what truly benefits you. There's a tension running through this lesson. Between time and value. Between effort and return. Between drifting through the Dunya and responding to a call that asks more of you than comfort ever will. You'll find yourself rethinking words you use lightly. Fortune. Gain. Success. Even intelligence. Are they really what you thought, or have they been shaped by a much shorter horizon? Take a moment before pressing play.

The Salaf were placed at the forefront of this Ummah - not only in time, but in depth of understanding, precision of speech, and clarity of method.  Their knowledge was not scattered, their words were not excessive, and their approach to the religion was guarded from speculation and unnecessary complexity. Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble begins explaining the book Faḍl ʿIlm as-Salaf ʿalā ʿIlm al-Khalaf by Ibn Rajab al-Ḥanbal, laying the groundwork for why the Salaf were recognised as more knowledgeable than those who came after them - and by what measures that superiority is understood. This explanation introduces the central themes of the book: the Salaf's distance from Kalām, their comprehensive yet restrained speech, their exacting relationship with the Arabic language, and the standards by which sound knowledge was historically weighed. If you want to understand the foundations of why the Salaf were treated as the benchmark in matters of understanding - this is the book for you.

Ever felt your Duas hit the heart on some days and feel flat on others? Many times it comes down to the Names you use when you call upon Allah. This episode digs into how those Names actually work, and why understanding them can change the way Allah's mercy, help, and protection reach you. In this episode of Allah's Names and Attributes, you'll discover the Names that describe who Allah has always been, the Names tied to His actions, the Names that free Him from every flaw, and the Names that carry multiple meanings at once. Suddenly, "al-Hayy", "ar-Rahman", and "as-Samad" become openings to knowing Allah, not just familiar words we repeat. Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble also clears up the confusion around "Ihsaa" - what it truly means to "know" Allah's Names in a way that strengthens your worship and transforms your Duas. And he points out the common mistakes many Muslims fall into when trying to seek benefit from the Names. Then comes the question every believer thinks about: Which is Allah's Greatest Name - the Name connected to answered Duas? The evidences, the strongest scholarly views, and the practical takeaway are all laid out. Watch till the end - the next episode moves into specific Names that can reshape how you stand before Allah… if your heart is ready for it.

War was never the plan. So how did the situation change so quickly? The Muslims left Madinah intending to intercept a caravan. But once the caravan escaped, new information reached both sides, and the direction of events shifted. In episode 76 of the Seerah, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains how matters developed as Quraysh continued advancing toward Badr. Their numbers, leadership, and intentions become clear, as does why some tribes chose to turn back while others pressed on. The episode also follows the decisions made by the Prophet ﷺ as the reality of a battle became unavoidable. Consultation takes place, different opinions are voiced, and firm commitments are given by the companions, especially as responsibility settles on those who would bear the greatest cost. You'll learn how the Muslims prepared on the ground, how information was gathered, how positions were chosen near the wells of Badr, and how Allah supported them through the night with calm, rest, and stability. The Prophet ﷺ spends the night in duʿa, while the army prepares for what lies ahead. The battle has not begun yet. But everything needed for it is now in place.

Life doesn't always hit in gentle waves. Sometimes it comes all at once - worry, sadness, setbacks, confusion. You try to make dua, you try to stay patient, but your heart still feels heavy. If you've been stuck in that place… It's going to be okay. Allah hasn't abandoned you. In this reminder, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble takes you back to the moment in Surah Yusuf where Yaqub teaches his sons something essential: a believer may feel pain, but they don't lose hope in Allah's mercy or His relief. Through the story of Yaqub, the duas of the prophets, and the balance between fear and hope, Ustadh Tim explains how knowing Allah's names and attributes changes the way you go through hardship - and why despair has no place in a believer's heart. If you've been struggling quietly, feeling overwhelmed, or trying to hold on when things feel stuck, this talk is for you.

The Name Allah appears more than two thousand times in the Qur'an. Let that sink in. It's in almost every duʿa you make, every dhikr you repeat, every moment you turn back to your Lord. Yet most of us say it thousands of times in our lives without ever stopping to ask the simplest question. Do I actually understand the One I'm calling upon? We move from ayah to ayah, dhikr to dhikr, prayers, hopes, fears… all built on a Name we use constantly but rarely study. And that gap changes everything about our worship. The Qur'an doesn't teach you how to pray before it teaches you who you're praying to. It begins with Names that carry the meanings of divinity, servitude, and the exclusive right to be worshipped. Knowing these Names is not the end of your journey. It's the moment it truly starts. Because once you know what they mean, another question hits even harder: What do these Names ask from you? In this episode, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble explores the Names Allah and Al-Ilah, and how understanding them reshapes worship, dependence, and the very way you see yourself as a servant of your Lord. Everyone submits to Allah, willingly or unwillingly. These Names reveal which path you're really walking. Watch this. Let it change how you worship.

The danger isn't dying unprepared. It's believing you'll prepare in time. This episode confronts one of the most dangerous habits of the heart: delay. Not open rebellion, not clear rejection, but the quiet confidence that there's still time. Time to change. Time to return. Time to take things seriously. In Episode 3 of the Ta'iyyah of Abu Ishaq al-Ilbiri, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble unpacks verses that speak to the soul that feels safe, settled, and just awake enough to keep going. The kind of sleep that doesn't look like heedlessness, but is exactly that. The poet isn't describing strangers. He's speaking to someone he knows well. Someone sincere, but distracted. Someone who loves the dunya. Someone who keeps thinking the real wake-up moment is still far away. This lesson circles a haunting idea: what if the moment you finally pay attention is the moment you can no longer act? Watch carefully. Not later. Some awakenings don't come twice.

Feeling at ease. Still sinning. Still telling yourself, Allah is Forgiving. But what if that calm is exactly the danger? In this powerful reminder, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan uncovers why the Quran warns against feeling safe from Allah's plan, and why delay, comfort, and "I'll repent later" have destroyed people before. Why were the Salaf afraid when doors of Dunya opened? When does ease stop being mercy? And why does punishment often come when people feel least threatened? A sobering wake-up for anyone relying on time instead of repentance.

We keep ignoring the signs that point to the Resurrection, even though they appear before our eyes every single day - until the day our eyes finally close… and we see it for real. This Makki Surah brings those visuals together with proofs that leave no room for excuses. Surah An-Naba forces you to confront the Great News that people argued about, dismissed, or treated lightly. It exposes the denial of the Mushrikeen, the stubbornness behind their questions, and the same patterns we fall into when we delay preparing for the Hereafter. In this tafseer, you'll recognise the signs Allah placed around you - the earth you walk on, the sleep you depend on, the night that covers you, the heavens above you, the rain that brings vegetation from the ground - each one a reminder that the One who created them will resurrect you.  And as the Surah unfolds, the scenes of the Day of Judgement rise before you: the Trumpet, the sky opening, the mountains swept away, Jahannam lying in wait, and the honour reserved for the people of taqwa. Just enough is revealed to awaken the heart, not enough to soften the warning. The Great News is coming. Prepare for it while there is time.

One day you'll wake up and realise the life you thought you still had… isn't there anymore. Time didn't slip past you. It carved you down, piece by piece, while you were busy chasing a world that never once promised to stay. That's the reality the poet throws at you before you can look away. This episode exposes the Dunya for what it truly is: a beautiful veil over something that will never love you back. We chase it, trust it, build our hopes on it, yet the wise already divorced it long ago because they saw what was behind the curtain. Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble unpacks the verses that rip through that illusion with frightening clarity. For every Muslim who keeps saying "soon," "later," or "when I'm ready," this lesson lands like a wake-up call you can't ignore. Death isn't just waiting - it's rushing towards you, calling you by name, and every hour that passes answers on your behalf. Watch this with honesty. Let it unsettle you. Let it push you to stop treating the Dunya like it will ever give you what you're hoping for. These lines don't just teach; they expose. And once you see it, you cannot unsee it.

The journey to Badr didn't begin with a battlefield. It began with small moments that tested the companions one by one. Some were told to return, others tried to stay hidden, and lessons were given on the road that shaped the mindset of the entire group. What seemed like a simple march became a series of decisions that revealed what each person carried in their heart. Meanwhile in Makkah, a sudden wave of news moved through the city and forced Quraysh to react. What they chose next set both sides on a path neither could step away from. Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains how these moments built the lead-up to Badr and why they changed the direction of the story. The clash hasn't begun yet, but the turning point is close.

Shaytan doesn't come to people of knowledge and those working in Dawah with obvious traps. He targets students of knowledge, Islamic teachers and Qur'an reciters with things that look innocent at first, then slowly tear down years of effort and study. In this short reminder, Ustadh Muhammed Tim Humble explains how people of knowledge slip into the fitnah of women, blurred boundaries and "small" choices that quietly erode their honour. And once that honour is gone, the Dawah itself collapses. Why do these slips feel so easy? How does Shaytan turn something permissible into a doorway to ruin? And what protects your reputation before your knowledge? A short but essential advice for anyone serving Islam in any capacity.

Every day we recite "Guide us to the Straight Path," yet many of us live uncomfortably close to the edge of it: halal and haram blurred, Islam pushed between work, study and the pressure to fit in. In this episode, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble speaks to that tension directly. He breaks down Surah al-Fatihah in a way many Muslims have never heard. You'll learn how worship collapses without Allah's help, how guidance comes in two layers, and why "You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help" sits at the centre of your entire life. Worship becomes more than movements. It touches your thoughts, your private moments, and who you turn to when you're at your weakest. You'll see how the Sahabah رضي الله عنهم lived this Surah, and why following their way is the clearest sign of true guidance. This lesson explores the mistakes of previous nations - knowledge without action, action without knowledge - and the modern pressures that quietly push Muslims to compromise. You'll recognise how easy it is to drift, even with good intentions, and what it takes to stay firm. By the end, your prayer feels different. The Straight Path feels defined. And the guidance you keep asking for finally makes sense. Based on Tafseer As-Sadi, explained simply and clearly.

Every Muslim tries to make sense of life's mistakes, its setbacks, and the moments that test patience and character. The Prophet ﷺ didn't leave us to figure these things out alone. His short, comprehensive words teach us how to walk through life with clarity, balance, and wisdom. In this fourth part of Jawami' al-Akhbar by Imam al-Sa'di, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains ahadith that speak directly to your daily reality: reminders that shape the way you think, react, and grow as a believer. This episode explores: - How a believer learns from painful experiences instead of repeating the same mistakes. - How planning, discipline, and self-control protect your time, your focus, and your worship. - How to recognise arrogance before it settles into the heart. - How contentment turns even limited provision into sufficiency. - How certain doors of good open or stay closed, depending on the choices you make. - Why temptations feel strong, and how to meet them with strength. - How simple acts of goodness carry weight with Allah and reshape your character. - How to guard your salah, hold your tongue, and control your anger, especially when it's hardest. - How to treat people with fairness, even when emotions run high. These ahadith aren't theoretical. They're practical guidance for anyone trying to live with sincerity, protect their habits, and build a character that will stand firm on the Day they meet Allah.

The Dunya pushes you: "Earn more. Climb higher. Secure your future." Your heart quietly asks: "But when will you seek knowledge? What about the Akhirah?" If you've ever watched your commitment to seeking knowledge fade while life pulls you in every direction… if you've ever stared at your week and wondered when your Iman slipped through the cracks… this poem was written for you. Welcome to our new series on the Ta'iyyah of Abu Ishaq al-Ilbiri - a poem so striking that scholars across generations instructed their students to memorise it. Not because it's beautiful poetry, but because it slaps you awake. Taught by Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble, this series takes you into a masterpiece that speaks to the modern Muslim student - the one juggling university, work, household, and trying to hold onto their Deen in a world that doesn't make it easy. This isn't just admonition. It's not a Sheikh telling you "you're doing it wrong." It's a father confessing to his son: "These are the mistakes I made. These are the attachments that cost me. Don't repeat them. Take the path I should have taken." The poem revolves around three unshakeable truths: Zuhd - turning away from a Dunya designed to capture you Seeking Knowledge - the treasure that fills the void when you stop chasing wealth and status Purifying the Soul - Tawbah, return, and filling your heart with what Allah loves In Episode 1, Ustadh Muhammad introduces the poem's background, its author's remarkable story, and begins unpacking the very first line: "The days shatter your heart, piece by piece..." Why does the poem begin with the heart, not the body, not time, but your heart? What happens when Iman wears out like old clothing? And what are the five actions that can renew a broken heart? This episode sets the stage for a journey that will challenge every student of knowledge, every person who's felt the weight of "I'm not doing enough," and every Muslim who knows deep down: the dunya is winning, and I need to fight back.

Most Muslims want a strong connection with the Qur'an, but life moves too fast. One week you're consistent, the next week you're barely holding on. You still read it, you still pray, but it often feels like you're doing everything while feeling nothing. Salah gets done on time, but your mind arrives late. And somewhere inside, you realise there has to be more. That's why this first episode of our Tafseer Juz Amma series starts with the surah you recite the most: Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble takes you through Surah Al-Fatihah using the clear and heart-centred commentary of Tafseer As-Sa'di, showing how each word was designed to steady you, guide you, and pull you closer to Allah in a way you can actually feel. This episode gives you a glimpse of meanings many Muslims never slow down enough to notice: the depth inside "Bismillah," the two forms of Allah's mercy hidden in Ar-Rahman and Ar-Raheem, the weight of standing before the Master of the Day of Judgement, and the moment you realise your salah has always been a dialogue, not a monologue. By the time you return to prayer, Surah al-Fatihah won't feel like a routine. It'll start to feel like a meeting. Based on Tafseer As-Sa'di - a warm, easy entryway into understanding the Qur'an.

We live in a time where visibility feels like a requirement. We post every moment, turn every good deed into content, and treat being unseen like failure. But the Salaf lived the opposite. They hid their good deeds the way we hide our sins. They feared praise the way we fear embarrassment. They preferred the background while we desire the centre. "Inspired by the Salaf" is a call to step back from the noise. To pull hearts out of the culture of visibility, where every deed becomes content and every moment feels like it needs an audience. This series takes you into the mindset of people who feared attention, who protected their sincerity like treasure, and who begged Allah to keep them unknown. These were the Muslims whose names never filled timelines, yet their deeds filled the heavens. This series pulls us back to their path, where hearts didn't crave likes, they craved Allah. Where people hid their deeds, checked their intentions, called themselves out before others did, and stepped away from the spotlight before it blinded them. In each episode, we rediscover what they feared, what they warned against, and how they guarded their Ikhlas long before the word "clout" existed. In this opening episode, Shaykh Abubakar al Khalafi takes us straight to the heart of the issue: the desire to be seen. He tells us why the Salaf called fame a deadly disease, why they cried when their names appeared on fatwas, and how wanting recognition poisons sincerity inch by inch. It shows how desiring fame steals the sweetness of Iman, makes worship shallow, and leaves a person looking religious while feeling empty. Watch this if you've ever checked who viewed your story. If you've posted a good deed and waited for reactions. If being unnoticed feels like being irrelevant. The Salaf have something to tell you - and it might be the reminder that saves your heart before it's too late.

A caravan returning from Sham set the stage for the first major battle in Islam. In this episode, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains how a simple attempt to intercept Quraysh's wealth became Yawm al-Furqan, the day Allah separated truth from falsehood. He covers the precise date of Badr (Friday, 17 Ramadan, 2 AH), why the Prophet ﷺ left Madinah without calling for a full mobilisation, and how a small group of Sahabah was chosen for a test they never expected. You'll also hear why the people of Badr were given a unique status, along with early incidents that showed Allah's support for them. This session establishes the cause and context of Badr before the military details continue in the next episode.
