Episode 13 of Flames of Fitnah - exploring Imām al-Bukhārī's Kitāb al-Fitan in Brisbane!
3 Muslim Heroes of San Diego A powerful khutbah reflecting on the lives of three believers who returned to Allah as martyrs following the recent shooting at the San Diego Islamic Center.Beyond the headlines were men of sincerity, service, and faith — remembered for their character, their devotion to the masjid, and the quiet goodness they carried in their lives. Dr Zohair advocates strongly for the need of the Muslim community build a strong media and legal arm as we are constantly being confronted with such violent Islamophobia.Drawing parallels with the Seerah and how the Prophet (SAW) demonstrated the importance of owning the narrative and responding to propaganda - we are reminded of the important task at hand. May Allah accept Amin Abdullah, Mansour Kaziha, and Nadir Awad amongst the shuhadā', envelop them in His mercy, expand their graves with light, and reunite them with the righteous in Jannatul Firdaus.May He grant patience and strength to their loved ones, and protect our communities from hatred, injustice, and violence.

Episode 4 of Flames of Fitnah - exploring Imām al-Bukhārī's Kitāb al-Fitan
This week, as we continue Kitāb al-Fitan, we turn to a critical topic:Rebellion. Khurūj. Obedience to rulers.Voices are rising. Emotions are high. And without Prophetic guidance, the lines start to blur…“Is obedience to rulers unconditional?”“Is opposing the ruler rebellion?”“Where is the line between principled political resistance… and reckless chaos that destroys more than it reforms?”These are not distant questions.They are urgent, unfolding before us in real time — especially as we witness the pain of Palestine, and confront the complicity of our governments.
Episode 2 of Flames of Fitnah - exploring Imām al-Bukhārī's Kitāb al-Fitan in Brisbane!
When truth blurs, voices clash, and the world feels unsteady — where do you turn?We return to the timeless guidance of the Prophet ﷺ. Step into Imām al-Bukhārī's Kitāb al-Fitan — where every narration cuts through the noise, anchoring you with clarity, conviction, and direction in times of trial.
CLOSEST CONNECTIONS FINALE‼️What if your entry into Jannah… was delayed—or even denied—because of how you treated those next door?
In the next chapter of Adab al-Mufrad, we turn to one of the weightiest trusts Allah places in our hands: our children. Will your parenting be a means to Allah's mercy? Or a neglected amanah you will be held to account for?Imam al-Bukhari begins with a powerful opening: the virtues of daughters. Discover how these teachings reshape an entire ummah's understanding of girls and women. ❤️A class for parents, future parents, and all of us entrusted with guiding the next generation.
Your family ties aren't random — they're connected to Allah Ar-Raḥmān Himself.A means to Jannah.A cause for increased provision.A test of who you really are.But what does it actually look like to maintain them in real life? What is the difference between true connection and simple reciprocation? How do we navigate difficulty in family relationships?Join us as we unpack the depth of silat ar-raḥim — beyond culture, beyond assumptions.
Our parents hold a station unlike any other — their love, sacrifice, and guidance shape our very lives. This Faith Circle class draws from Al-Adab Al-Mufrad to explore the unmatched virtues of mothers, the weighty station of fathers, and the delicate balance of our obligations toward them. ⚖️

The Surah that inspired the heart of an African King
Surah Ra'd - Kahf
In the wake of the recent tragedy in Bondi, and in recognition of the courage shown by Ahmed Al Ahmed, this khutba offers a moment of reflection during challenging times for all Australians.
This Thursday we will be returning to our series through the Quran! Picking up where we left off. We'll be covering Surah Yunus, Hud and Yusuf. These are the Surahs the Prophet said gave him grey hairs. These are very theology heavy surahs that focus on faith vs skepticism along with a beautiful telling of the story of Yusuf.
Ustadh Zareef will take us through a session aimed at the heart of what true revival looks like.
We begin our new mini-series on Salahuddin Al-Ayyubi — the liberator of Jerusalem Why study history?

Jumuah khutba 14 Nov 2025
This week will be crossing over 1/3 of the Quran alhamdulillah! We will be going through Surah Anfaal and Surah Tawbah inshallah. These two surahs speak about two of the most important moments in the Seerah - the Battle of Badr and the Conquest of Makkah. And of course, a deeply personal and moving story of tawbah (redemption) for Ka'b Ibn Maalik.We are slowing down our pace just a bit, so it is an opportunity for people to catch up with the Utruja challenge as well! This week, it will be just to the end of Surah Tawbah (so just 1 Juz and a bit).
Surah Ma'idah, An'aam, A'raaf
This week, we'll finish Sūrah Āli ʿImrān and begin our journey through *Juz' 4–6*, exploring the signs of guidance, justice, and divine witness.A beautiful ḥadīth is narrated relating to this section of our pre-reading:> ʿAbdullāh ibn Masʿūd (RA) said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me, “Recite Sūrat an-Nisāʾ.”I asked, “Shall I recite to you what was sent down to you?”He replied, “I love to hear it from someone else.”> So I recited until I reached the verse: ‘How then will it be when We bring from every people a witness, and We bring you as a witness over them?' [4:41] Then I raised my head and saw tears falling from his eyes._Let us strive to be people whose hearts awaken and whose eyes weep out of love and awe for the words of Allah._ Come early, bring your Qur'an Reading Companion, and journey through Signs!
“Recite the two brightly illuminated chapters — Surat al-Baqarah and Āl ʿImrān — for on the Day of Resurrection, they will come as two clouds, or two shades, or two flocks of birds pleading for their companions.” (Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 804)Today we kick off our journey into Signs, starting with Juz 1–3.

When the truth is blurred, what path will guide us? Without a firm compass, society unravels into chaos and relativism.“The people of the earth are in greater need of the Messenger's message than rain from the sky, light from the sun that illuminates the darkness…” (Ibn al-Qayyim, As-Sawāʿiq)
From the chants of the crowd to the spirit in the streets, Sunday's march echoed a truth: every effort matters, and true success comes only from Allah. You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help. This week, we'll explore:• Reflections from the weekend's protest• The linguistic secrets of this āyah — word order, repetition, singular vs. plural• The psychology of ‘ibādah – how love, humility & motivation shape worship• 7 keys of Tawakkul from Ibn al-Qayyim• How ‘ibādah + isti‘ānah together define true servanthood
