Awaken! : Hadiths to Awaken and Heal the Heart and Soul

The Book of Heart-Melting Traditions (Kitab al-Riqaq) is a chapter included in many primary hadith collections. It compiles the hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) that serve to melt the heart or encourage a state of receptiveness to truth and the divine reality. This podcast includes readings from Imam Tabrizi’s Mishkat al Masabih, presented by Shaykh Abdullah Misra.<br /> <br /> The heart, a magnificent organ, is immersed in the material world as well as the spiritual unseen world. As a result of continually interacting with creations, the heart becomes hardened. A hard heart shows a lack of attunement, an attachment to worldly things, and a lack of preparation in meeting with the Creator.<br /> <br /> Remembrance and revelations melt the hard heart so it can be awakened and opened.<br /> <br /> These short podcast episodes cover several hadiths with explanation and can be listened to anytime, anywhere.
