Challenges of Living as Muslims in Non-Muslim Societies is a thought-provoking talk delivered by Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera in Antwerp, Belgium, in November 2025.

Surah At-Tawbah (Surah 9), one of the last revealed chapters of the Qur'an and the only surah without Bismillah, addresses the moral, political, and spiritual challenges facing the Muslim community in Madinah. It declares disassociation from treaties with polytheists who repeatedly broke their agreements while upholding justice toward those who remained faithful, and it strongly condemns hypocrisy, exposing those who claimed belief yet avoided sacrifice and responsibility. The surah emphasizes sincerity in faith, striving in Allah's cause through wealth and effort, proper leadership, and the fair distribution of zakah, while highlighting the importance of unity and accountability. Despite its firm tone, Surah At-Tawbah concludes by reminding believers that the door of repentance remains open, affirming Allah's mercy and compassion, and portraying the Prophet ﷺ as deeply concerned for the wellbeing of his ummah.

In this lecture, Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera explores the unparalleled eloquence of the Qur'an and its enduring impact on hearts, minds, and civilizations. He begins by introducing the concept of balāghah (eloquence) in the Arabic tradition, explaining how the Qur'an's language transcends ordinary speech, poetry, and prose. Unlike human expression, the Qur'an's style seamlessly combines clarity, depth, rhythm, and beauty in a way that captivates both experts in rhetoric and ordinary listeners. Dr. Mangera highlights how the Qur'an challenged the master poets and linguists of Arabia—renowned for their mastery of language—yet none were able to produce anything comparable. He illustrates this through examples of Qur'anic verses where a few words carry layers of meaning, evoke powerful imagery, and convey profound guidance. The lecture also emphasizes the Qur'an's timelessness: while human literature fades with changing tastes and eras, the Qur'an continues to resonate across languages and cultures. Its eloquence is not merely aesthetic; it is purposeful, moving hearts toward reflection, humility, and transformation. Concluding his talk, Dr. Mangera reminds the audience that the Qur'an's eloquence is one of its living miracles, a divine sign that invites believers and skeptics alike to engage with its words and witness for themselves the power of revelation.

“Outwardly, creatures are an illusion, but, inwardly, they are an admonition. Thus, the soul looks at the illusory exterior while the heart looks at the admonitory interior” Hikam 85 page 142 from The Book of Wisdoms https://www.whitethreadpress.com/products/the-book-of-wisdoms-kitab-al-hikam-with-ikmal-al-shiyam The aphorism explains the constant battle between the differing perspectives of the self ego and the inner heart.
