Al Madrasatu Al Umariyyah

So many Muslims today are passionate about studying Islam. But let’s be real: most of us start off the wrong way. We binge random lectures on YouTube, scroll through reminders on Instagram, or even ask ChatGPT to explain complex issues, thinking that’s enough to make us grow. Others jump from one book to the next with no plan, memorise nothing, never revise, and want to dive into evidences and differences of opinion from day one. But that’s not how the scholars sought Islamic knowledge. And that’s not the path that leads to understanding. In this lesson, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan shares the blueprint for seeking knowledge the right way: sincerity before anything else, the Qur’an as your foundation, teachers over self-study, and the gradual stages every student must pass through. He explains the dangers of skipping ahead, why structure is more important than hype, and how true knowledge should raise you in rank with Allah when it’s paired with action. If you’ve ever felt unstructured, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, this is the roadmap you’ve been missing.

We live in a time where Muslims can lift 200kg at the gym but struggle to lift a blanket for Fajr. Where hearts drown in endless scrolling, doubts, and desires. Where practising Islam is mistaken for harshness, or where perfection is demanded until people burn out and give up. But Allah never asked you to be perfect. He asked you to be steadfast. To have Istiqamah. What does that really mean today? How do you stay on the straight path when temptations, distractions, and pressure to imitate others are everywhere? How do you protect your heart and actions - the very things Allah looks at - when they’re being pulled in every direction? In this 45-minute talk, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan uncovers the reality of Istiqamah: - Why it’s a gift only Allah can give, not something you earn on your own. - Why consistency matters more than perfection. - How desires grow into doubts, and doubts into leaving the Deen. - Why gentleness attracts hearts more than harshness. - How your steadfastness today decides your footing on the Sirat on the Day of Judgement. If you’ve ever fallen, struggled, or wondered whether you’re “good enough” to stay firm on this Deen, this is for you.

It doesn’t always look like “mistreating” your wife. Sometimes it’s cutting her off mid-sentence because you think you know what she’ll say, or scrolling through your phone while she’s telling you about her day, or brushing off her feelings with “you’re overreacting”. Little by little, these moments chip away at trust, affection, and respect until your wife feels unseen in her own home. In this video, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan shares 25 major mistakes Muslim men make: the kinds of actions and habits that lead to failed marriages, constant conflict, or homes with no real happiness.  He highlights what the Qur’an and Sunnah teach about a husband’s role, how the Prophet ﷺ treated his wives, and the practical steps every Muslim man can take to bring back mercy and love into his marriage. Whether you’re preparing for marriage or already a husband, this is advice you won’t get in casual talks, but it could save your marriage from quiet collapse.

This second part of the explanation of Jawami’ Al-Akhbar by Imam Al-Sa'di, taught by Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan, unpacks those concise hadiths Allah blessed His Messenger ﷺ with. They carry rulings on purity, the power of intention, the wisdom of moderation, the virtues of forgiveness and humility, and the keys to living Islam with balance and clarity.

You’re doing everything “right”… but life still feels tough. You’re praying, fasting, and giving charity. Yet your duas feel unanswered. Money slips through your hands. People you trusted turn against you. Doors keep closing no matter how hard you try. You’re left asking, “Why is this happening when I’m trying to obey Allah?” In this episode of the explanation of Ad-Daa' Wa Ad-Dawaa’ by Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan exposes a terrifying reality: the sins you forgot may still be chasing you. Discover: - How past sins leave marks that resurface years later when you least expect it. - Why blessings are stripped away one by one, while you can’t figure out why. - How dirty sins committed in private invite public humiliation and disgrace. - Why delayed punishments make people feel safe... until everything falls apart at once. Watch now. You might finally understand why certain problems never seem to go away.

For years, the Prophet ﷺ and his companions endured harm, exile, and oppression in silence. They were commanded to forgive and turn away, waiting for Allah’s command. That command finally came. This episode takes you through the moment when Allah permitted the Muslims to defend themselves. Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explains how the first expeditions unfolded, the wisdom behind their timing, and the powerful lessons they carry for us today. In this episode of the Seerah of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, you’ll learn about:  - The Qur’anic permission to defend and its context. - Hamza ibn Abdul Muttalib’s رضي الله عنه first expedition and its purpose. - How Sa’d ibn Abi Waqqas رضي الله عنه shot the first arrow in Islam. - Why sins lead to humiliation and how obedience brings victory. The story is not just about battles. It’s about patience, faith, and what happens when believers uphold or abandon Allah’s commands. Watch to uncover how these events shaped the path to Badr and beyond.

They are children who watch other kids run into their parents’ arms while they stand alone, carrying a pain in their small chests they don’t yet have words for. Anyone can claim to love orphans, then move on with life. When it comes to action, most will send money and feel they’ve done their part. But money isn’t what they need most. They need a family, a home where they belong, someone who lifts them to their shoulders, someone who knows what they love to eat. This reminder by Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan uncovers what it truly means to care for an orphan: not just giving, but living with them, protecting them, and filling their world with mercy until their smile softens your heart and brings tears to your eyes. If you want to be with the Prophet ﷺ in Jannah like two fingers joined together, that’s how close you have to be to orphans in this Dunya.

A man once asked ‘Abdullah Ibn Masʿūd رضي الله عنه: “Tell us about the Hellfire. What is it like?” He replied: “If you were to see it, your heart would be dislodged from its place.” Jahannam is real. It exists as you read this. It’s waiting. Its terror goes beyond imagination. Flames that crush the bones, melt the skin, and burn to the heart... only for the skin to return and burn again. Chains that shackle every limb. Boiling tar that coats the body. Molten drink that tears the insides apart while screams echo in despair, unanswered. In this gripping reminder, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble takes you deep into the Qur’an and hadith that uncover the Fire’s horrors like you’ve never heard before: the angels that drag people on their faces, the seven gates each awaiting its share, and the endless punishments that drive its inmates to beg for death… only to hear: “Burn in it, and don’t speak to Me.” This isn’t a talk to play in the background. This is the reminder that could save you from the fire whose fuel is men and stones. Watch it. Fear it. Change before it’s too late.

They cleaned you when you couldn’t clean yourself, stayed awake through your fevers, and prayed for you when you didn’t even know how to pray. They grew old while raising you. Their hair turned grey while giving you comfort. Now, they call you, and you’re “busy.” They ask for a small favour, and you sigh. They raise their hands to make du’a for you… And you make them cry? Allah mentioned the parents’ rights right after His own. The Prophet ﷺ ranked obedience to parents above fighting on the battlefield.  Yet today, many of us are strict with our prayers, yet harsh with the very people who brought us into this world. This reminder by Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan isn’t just knowledge, it’s a mirror. It shows you where you truly stand with your parents, and with Allah. Watch it. Reflect. Change before the door of Jannah through your parents closes forever.

On one side, the Prophet ﷺ said, “The scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets.” On the other, scroll through Muslim spaces on social media and you’ll see comments like: “Scholars for dollars.” “Agents of the government.” “Bootlickers.” It’s easy to join the noise until you realise what you’re signing up for: - The blessings of true Islamic knowledge - The slow death of your heart, poisoned by mockery and arrogance But what about those who do attend their gatherings, watch their lectures, and sit in their circles? Are they fulfilling the rights due to the scholars? Or has the honour faded even among those who claim to benefit? In this powerful session, Shaikh Dr. Asim Al-Qaryooti - translated by Sheikh Sadiq A. Yasin - outlines: - The exact rights Islam gives our scholars, in life and after death - The etiquettes we must uphold, and the real danger in neglecting them - What the Salaf did differently — and how far we’ve drifted - Why slandering scholars doesn’t just harm them, but damages the Ummah itself - And the simple, transformative path back to adab, dignity, and divine mercy The question is no longer “do you listen to them?” It’s “Do you treat them as Islam commands?” Sign up now to AMAU Academy: https://www.amauacademy.com/ AMAU Academy: https://www.amauacademy.com/ AMAU Junior: https://amaujunior.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amauofficial/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AMAU Telegram: https://t.me/amauofficial YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/AMAUofficial Twitter: https://twitter.com/AMAUofficial iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/al-madrasatu-al-umariyyah/id1524526782 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/08NJC1pIA0maaF6aKqZL4N Get in Touch: https://amau.org/getintouch BarakAllahu feekum. #AMAU #islamicscholar #islam #islamiclectures #islamicmotivation

You wake up already tired. The mind’s racing before your feet even touch the ground. You pray, but it feels like a routine. You open the Qur’an, but the words blur. You smile, you function… but inside, you're drained. Some days, you’re not even sad. Just numb. On edge. Like you’re bracing for something, but you don’t know what. You try everything, you listen to reminders… but your heart still feels far. Unmoved. Heavy. And in the quiet moments, that lingering thought creeps in: “Why do I still feel like this… even when I’m trying?” In this powerful reminder, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan gets straight to what most of us avoid talking about. He brings to light the root of that restlessness, the reason behind the inner noise, the tightness, the emptiness, even while doing all the “right” things. If you’ve been feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, or just off, and you've been searching for peace but can’t seem to feel it, this is for you. Not vague advice. Not surface-level comfort. But something real. Something your heart might’ve been needing all along.

You think your Iman is safe… that you’ll die with it intact, no matter what. But watch how quickly it gets chipped away when doubts come dressed as trends, debates, or posts that sound clever — until your heart’s spinning at night, wondering what’s true. Your Aqeedah isn’t just a label. It’s your shield when the world keeps pushing you to blur the lines. And a shield only works if you know what you’re holding. Manzoomah Al-Ahsaai isn’t just an old poem for scholars to memorise — it’s a lifeline. A clear, powerful map of the beliefs every Muslim needs to anchor their heart. In this 5-hour deep dive, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan unpacks each line with proofs from the Qur’an, Sunnah, and the way of the Salaf. You’ll see why Tawheed, Qadr, the grave, the scales, and the Day you see Allah — none of it is just theory. It’s what keeps your Iman steady when everyone’s telling you to loosen your grip. You’ve got 168 hours for the world’s noise this week. Take just five to strengthen what matters more than anything else. Study the kind of Aqeedah that lets you sleep at night when the doubts hit, the debates rage, and your soul whispers: “Where do I stand?” May Allah keep our creed pure and our hearts firm. Watch till the end. Share it with someone who’s searching for solid ground right now. And keep building your Aqeedah like the Salaf did — step by step, truth by truth.
