19 Jul 2026, 01:23 UTC131 views2 reactionsread 26 August 2026 There are certain principles that I try to live by. Even when I slip up, I try to return to them as quickly as possible and not allow myself to drift so far that returning becomes difficult.
Life, whether it relates to iman, character, knowledge, capabilities, or ability, is always a matter of ebb and flow.
One of those principles is striving to be an asset, not a liability.

We dislike advertisements interrupting a video we're watching. We dislike having our train of thought broken. We dislike internal or external distractions that prevent us from performing at our best in whatever we strive to excel in.
It is interesting, then, to consider what we…

This is commonly circulated in lectures and khutbahs, and it is also found in works such as the Tafsir of Ibn Kathir. However, there is another interpretation that may be of particular interest, especially for those who own pets, which is mentio…

Over a thousand years ago, today, al-Ja'd, who said that the Qu'ran was created, was sacrificed.
al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir رحمه الله said:
Khalid ibn ʿAbdullah al-Qasri killed al-Jaʿd on the day of Eid al-Adha in al-Kufah. Khalid delivered a sermon to the people and said in his address:
“O people, sacrifice, and may Allah accept your sacrifices, for I am sacrificing al-Jaʿd ibn Dirham. He claimed that All…

﴿اهْدِنَا الصِّرَاطَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ﴾ — [الفاتحة: 6]
“Guide us to the straight path” — [Surah Al-Fatihah 1:6]
But how do you know if that du’a has been answered?
It is seen in your state.
If you find within yourself an eagerness to follow the Sunnah, a desire to align your actions with the way of the Prophet ﷺ, then know that Allah has answered your du'a.
And…

Yet we often forget that transgressions against Allah are more deserving of our zeal and indignation when they are committed.
Despite this, many show little concern when an “imam” rejects some or all of the attributes of Allah. They will pray behind someone whom the Salaf would have rebuked …

Understanding the Asma' and Sifat of Allah is connected to Tawhid, and without it, one's Tawhid is incomplete and Tawhid is the defining and decisive characteristic of whether a person is a Muslim or a Kafir.
Tawhid ar-Rububiyyah is to affirm Allah is the only Lord and has no partners in His lordship.
Tawhid al-Uluhiyyah is the worship of Allah alone - and to worship Allah alone is to i…

Why it’s important to understand the Sifat (Attributes) of Allah
Understanding Allah’s Sifat is foundational to knowing Him, and knowing Him is the purpose of creation.
Allah says:
"And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me." (https://quran.com/adh-dhariyat/56)
'ibadah (worship) is not just physical actions, it is also having the correct knowledge of the One worshipped. With…
