Rapat dengar pendapat Panja Komisi Delapan DPR RI dengan Panja Pemerintah kini sedang dipercepat untuk membahas rincian biaya haji. Dalam rapat kali ini, selain membahas biaya haji, akan dilakukan pengambilan keputusan penting terkait hal tersebut.
Wakil Menteri Haji dan Umrah, Dahnil Anzar Simanjuntak, menegaskan bahwa pelaksanaan haji mandiri tetap harus dilakukan melalui Penyelenggara Ibadah Haji Khusus (PIHK), bukan secara perorangan.Pernyataan ini disampaikan usai menghadiri rapat kerja bersama Komisi VIII DPR RI di Jakarta pada Senin, 27 Oktober 2025.#HajiMandiri #DahnilAnzar #PIHK #Kemenag #Haji2025 #KomisiVIII #JemaahHaji #IbadahHaji
DPR RI dan Kementerian Haji dan Umrah sepakat menyamaratakan masa tunggu keberangkatan haji menjadi 26 tahun mulai tahun 2026. Langkah ini dilakukan untuk menciptakan pemerataan kesempatan bagi calon jemaah di seluruh provinsi Indonesia.Kebijakan baru ini juga memperbaiki sistem sebelumnya yang membuat masa tunggu di sejumlah daerah bisa mencapai 47 tahun. Wakil Menteri Haji dan Umrah Dahnil Anzar Simanjuntak mengatakan, perhitungan dan pembagian kuota tahun 2026 kini mengacu pada Undang-Undang Nomor 14 Tahun 2025 tentang Penyelenggaraan Ibadah Haji dan Umrah (PIHU).Perubahan perhitungan kuota berdasarkan proporsi daftar tunggu dan jumlah penduduk muslim turut memengaruhi distribusi kuota haji di tiap provinsi.Bagaimana Komnas Haji melihat kebijakan ini? Talk dengan Ketua Komnas Haji dan Umroh Indonesia Mustolih Siraj
Biaya Penyelenggaraan Ibadah Haji tahun ini turun sekitar satu juta rupiah. Angka yang bagi sebagian orang mungkin tidak terlalu besar, namun bagi calon jemaah yang telah menabung bertahun-tahun, setiap rupiah yang diringankan tentu bermakna.Pemerintah menyebut penurunan biaya ini sebagai hasil peningkatan efisiensi dan pemeliharaan prinsip keadilan dalam penyelenggaraan ibadah Haji. Mulai dari penyederhanaan layanan, penguatan negosiasi harga di Arab Saudi, hingga optimalisasi dana yang dikelola Badan Pengelola Keuangan Haji.Namun, muncul juga pertanyaan di tengah masyarakat: apakah kebijakan ini sudah cukup menjawab tantangan layanan dan keadilan kuota Haji di berbagai daerah? Bagaimana memastikan biaya yang lebih murah tetap menghadirkan pelayanan yang lebih baik? Dan pada akhirnya, apakah penurunan ini menghadirkan keberkahan bagi jemaah yang menjadi tamu Allah?Talk: - Ketua Umum DPP BERSATHU (Kebersamaan Pengusaha Travel Haji dan Umrah), Mohammad Farid Aljawi, S.E., M.H.- Ketua Lembaga Perlindungan Konsumen Muslim (LPKM) Aceh, Syahrial MS, SH

Comparative Study of Tafsir Books: Al-Jalalayn & Al-Shawkani's Fath al-Qadir | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at Zad AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,The study of Tafsir (Quranic exegesis) is vital in unlocking the layers of meaning, guidance, and linguistic beauty of the Qur'an. In this session of Tafsir 01-06, Shaykh Dr. Ahmad ibn Saifuddin introduces the audience to two influential works in Tafsir: Tafsir al-Jalalayn and Fath al-Qadir by Imam al-Shawkani, contrasting their approaches and value for students and scholars alike.Imam Jalal ad-Din al-Mahalli (d. 864H) began Tafsir al-Jalalayn, and Jalal ad-Din al-Suyuti (d. 911H) completed it. This work is renowned for its concise explanations and its reliance on transmitted reports from the Prophet ﷺ and his Companions (as-salaf). The authors gathered narrations from major Hadith collections, such as Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, when clarifying verses of the Qur'an.However, a key point for students is that al-Jalalayn does not always verify the authenticity of these reports. The importance of grading Hadith is highlighted in the sciences, distinguishing between authentic (sahih), sound (hasan), and weak (da'if) narrations, a principle underscored in the Qur'an itself:"O you who have believed, if there comes to you a disobedient one with news, investigate..." (Surah Al-Hujurat 49:6 – quran.com/49/6)A similar emphasis is found in the Prophet's ﷺ approach to reporting."It is enough for a man to prove himself a liar by conveying everything he hears." (Sahih Muslim 5 – sunnah.com/muslim:5)Contemporary scholars continue efforts to authenticate and clarify Hadith within classical Tafsir books.The second major work discussed is Fath al-Qadir by Imam Muhammad ibn Ali al-Shawkani (d. 1250H). Al-Shawkani approaches Tafsir with linguistic rigor, examining the grammar, recitation (qira'at), and the context of each ayah (verse). He evaluates scholarly differences among jurists and linguists and often selects the view supported by evidence.Al-Shawkani's method refutes deviant opinions, argues for salafi perspectives, and regularly chooses the strongest, most authentic interpretations. By analyzing the language of verses, he foregrounds the primary sources of Islam:"And We have certainly made the Qur'an easy to remember..." (Surah Al-Qamar 54:17 – quran.com/54/17)Transmission vs. Verification: Al-Jalalayn compiles many reports, but does not always verify them. Modern editorship involves grading reports and clarifying weak or authentic narrations.Linguistic and Analytical Evaluation: Fath al-Qadir stands out for its in-depth linguistic analysis, grammar, and juristic reasoning, opting for positions with the strongest evidence.Students are encouraged to compare the methodologies of these books and review the authenticity and nuances of each. This enhances one's understanding of the Qur'an and deepens respect for the scholarly tradition.Conclusion: Comparing classical and analytical Tafsir helps cultivate a holistic appreciation for the Qur'an's timeless wisdom rooted in authentic transmission and rigorous linguistic analysis.
Upholding the Rights and Honor of the Companions – Following the Way of the Sahabah in Islam | Tarbiyah Islamiyah 01-06 | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at Zad AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,In this session of Tarbiyah Islamiyah 01-06, Shaykh Ibrahim Zidan explores one of the central themes of Islamic creed and education — the rights of the Companions (Sahabah) and the obligation to love, respect, and defend them. These noble individuals were chosen by Allah to accompany the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and to transmit his message to later generations.Allah has explicitly praised the Sahabah in the Qur'an:“Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and those who are with him are severe against disbelievers, and merciful among themselves.”(Surah Al-Fath 48:29 – quran.com/48/29)Loving the companions and following their understanding of the religion is an integral part of faith. Speaking negatively about them contradicts the direction of the Qur'an, where Allah commands believers never to criticize a people whom He has praised.“And the first forerunners [in faith] among the Muhajirun and the Ansar and those who followed them with good conduct – Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him.”(Surah At-Tawbah 9:100 – quran.com/9/100)This verse establishes that following the Sahabah's understanding is not optional but fundamental. Any attempt to diminish their standing ultimately weakens the foundation through which Islam reached us — the Qur'an and Sunnah, transmitted through their trustworthy efforts.All companions are deemed just and trustworthy (ʿudūl). The Prophet ﷺ said:“Do not revile my companions, for if one of you were to spend gold equal to Uhud in charity, it would not equal a handful of what they gave, or even half of it.”(Sahih al-Bukhari 3673 – sunnah.com/bukhari:3673)This hadith highlights their unmatched rank and contribution. The generation that carried and preserved Islam deserves immense respect. Thus, believers must avoid delving into historical disputes or criticizing their actions.The Prophet ﷺ forewarned that the ummah would experience divisions and gave clear guidance to remain upon his path and that of the rightly guided caliphs:“I urge you to adhere to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly-guided Caliphs after me. Hold fast to it with your molar teeth.”(Sunan Abi Dawood 4607 – sunnah.com/abudawud:4607)The way to salvation and unity is by adhering to Revelation through their understanding. This ensures protection from deviation and sectarianism.Love and Loyalty: Loving the companions is part of loving the Prophet ﷺ. Hating or insulting them endangers one's faith.Trust in Transmission: The Companions are reliable transmitters of the Qur'an and Sunnah; their righteousness is confirmed by Allah.Avoid Contention: Refrain from discussing past disputes among them.Follow Their Faith: Success lies in following the Qur'an and Sunnah according to their interpretation.Conclusion: The companions (Sahabah) are the spiritual foundation of this ummah. Upholding their honor safeguards our connection to the authentic teachings of Islam. As the Prophet ﷺ guided, steadfastness upon his Sunnah and the way of his Companions ensures unity, purity of faith, and salvation.
The Six Types of Revelation and Early Stages of Prophethood | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at Zad AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,In this article, we explore the sixth lecture from Seerah – Semester 1 by Shaykh Assim Al-Hakeem, where he explains how revelation began for our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and the early years of his secret da'wah. The journey of revelation marks the foundation of Islam and provides profound lessons about patience, wisdom, and divine connection.The scholars classified divine revelation (Wahy) into six distinct types experienced by the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ:Revelation began with true dreams, which would unfold exactly as the Prophet ﷺ had seen them. This occurred six months before the first revelation in the Cave of Ḥirā'. The Prophet ﷺ said:“The truthful dream of a believer is one forty-sixth part of Prophethood.”(Sahih al-Bukhari 6989 – sunnah.com/bukhari:6989)Some scholars explain this fraction based on the Prophet's ﷺ 23 years of prophethood — six months being one forty-sixth of that duration.At times, Angel Jibrīl (Gabriel), peace be upon him, appeared as a man and spoke directly to the Prophet ﷺ. The famous hadith of Jibrīl illustrates this:“A man came to us, dressed in white clothes, with black hair... and asked the Prophet about Islam, Iman, and Ihsan.”(Sahih Muslim 8 – sunnah.com/muslim:8)Jibrīl would sometimes inspire the Prophet's heart without appearing. The Prophet ﷺ said:“The Holy Spirit has inspired me that no soul will die until it has received all its provision.”(Sunan Ibn Majah 2144 – sunnah.com/ibnmajah:2144)This was the hardest form. The Prophet ﷺ would receive the revelation with a sound resembling that of ringing bells, and it would cause physical strain. His companions noticed sweat on his forehead even on cold days during this intense form of revelation.The Prophet ﷺ saw Angel Jibrīl in his true form twice, with 600 wings, an image beyond human comprehension:Narrated `Abdullah: Regarding the Verses: 'And was at a distance of but two bow-lengths or (even) nearer; So did (Allah) convey the Inspiration to His slave (Gabriel) and then he Gabriel) conveyed (that to Muhammad...' (53.9-10) Ibn Mas`ud narrated to us that the Prophet (ﷺ) had seen Gabriel with six hundred wings.Sahih al-Bukhari 4856https://sunnah.com/bukhari:4856“He has been taught by one mighty in power, Dhu Mirrah (with mighty wings)...”(Surah An-Najm 53:5-6 – quran.com/53/5-6)The final and greatest level was when Allah directly revealed to His Messenger ﷺ without any intermediary during the Isra' wa al-Mi‘raj (Night Journey). It was during this encounter that the commandment of five daily prayers was made obligatory.“Then He revealed to His servant what He revealed.”(Surah An-Najm 53:10 – quran.com/53/10)After the first revelation, Allah commanded His Messenger ﷺ:“Arise and warn.”(Surah Al-Muddaththir 74:2 – quran.com/74/2)The Prophet ﷺ began calling those closest to him in secret. The first to accept Islam included Khadijah (RA), Abu Bakr (RA), Ali ibn Abi Talib (RA), and his freed slave Zayd ibn Harithah (RA). For three years, Islam spread quietly, and around 130 men and women embraced the faith privately.During this period, Muslims prayed two units (rak‘ahs) connecting with Allah spiritually, before the five daily prayers were made obligatory in the heavens.The Prophet ﷺ's mission emphasized faith, purification of the heart, and righteous character — all essential foundations for the believers even before formal laws were revealed.Key Lesson: Revelation began gradually, preparing the Prophet ﷺ and his followers spiritually and emotionally for the immense mission ahead. The early secret da'wah teaches us that change begins with inner purification and close, sincere companionship for the sake of Allah.
HADITH 01-06: The Mercy and Character of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at ZAD AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,In this lecture from Hadith Semester 1 by Shaykh Dr. Muhammad Salah, we explore the profound mercy and noble character of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as taught through authentic Hadith and Qur'anic verses.Allah sent Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as a mercy to all humanity. The Qur'an states:“And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], but as a mercy to the worlds.”(Surah Al-Anbiya 21:107, quran.com/21/107)This mercy encompassed the weak and strong, friend and foe, rich and poor, even extending to animals and the environment. The Prophet's ﷺ mercy was a reflection of Allah's infinite compassion.Allah describes the Prophet's character as exemplary:“And indeed, you are of a great moral character.”(Surah Al-Qalam 68:4, quran.com/68/4)His life models humility, patience, kindness, and forgiveness. For example, when a child urinated on him, he calmly cleaned himself without anger, showing compassion in every circumstance.The Prophet's mercy extended to enemies as well, exemplified in the story of Thumāmah ibn Uthāl, who embraced Islam after witnessing the Muslims' kindness and tranquility.Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Allah has divided mercy into one hundred parts; and He retained with Him ninety-nine parts, and sent down to earth one part. Through this one part creatures deal with one another with compassion, so much so that an animal lifts its hoof over its young lest it should hurt it". [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]Another narration is: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Allah has one hundred mercies, out of which He has sent down only one for jinn, mankind, animals and insects, through which they love one another and have compassion for one another; and through it, wild animals care for their young. Allah has retained ninety-nine mercies to deal kindly with His slaves on the Day of Resurrection." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].Another narration in Muslim is reported: by Salman Al-Farisi: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Allah has hundred mercies, out of which one mercy is used by his creation for mutual love and affection. Ninety-nine mercies are kept for the Day of Resurrection."Another narration is: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Allah created one hundred units of mercy on the Day He created the heavens and the earth. Each one of them can contain all that is between the heaven and the earth. Of them, he put one on earth, through which a mother has compassion for her children and animals and birds have compassion for one another. On the Day of Resurrection, He will perfect and complete His Mercy". (That is He will use all the hundred units of mercy for his slaves on that Day).Riyad as-Salihin 420https://sunnah.com/riyadussalihin:420Islam teaches that acts of leadership must lead with compassion and reconciliation rather than dominance.ConclusionThe Hadith and Qur'an together portray the Prophet whose mercy and character are central to his message. His compassion teaches us to be merciful, forgiving, and patient, embodying the beautiful ethics of Islam.
FIQH 01-06: The Fitrah and Its Practical Aspects in Islam | Shaykh Assim Al-Hakeem | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at ZAD AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,In this session of Fiqh Semester 1 - Lecture 6, Shaykh Assim Al-Hakeem explains the concept of Fitrah — the natural disposition with which every human is created. This lecture highlights the spiritual and practical aspects of cleanliness and purity, emphasizing that these actions are both hygienic and acts of worship.The term Fitrah refers to the pure, innate nature that Allah instilled in all human beings. It inclines every person toward recognizing the Oneness of Allah and doing good deeds. Allah says:"So direct your face toward the religion, inclining to truth; [adhere to] the fitrah of Allah upon which He has created [all] people. No change should there be in the creation of Allah. That is the correct religion, but most of the people do not know."(Surah Ar-Rum 30:30, quran.com/30/30)This verse confirms that purity and devotion to Allah are embedded in human nature. A believer's task is to maintain and refine this purity through both beliefs and actions.Shaykh Assim explains that Fitrah is of two types:Spiritual Fitrah: The inherent inclination to believe in the Oneness of Allah (Tawheed).Practical Fitrah: The natural behaviors that maintain cleanliness, purity, and modesty — essential parts of Islamic practice.It was narrated that Talq bin Habib said: "Ten things are from the Sunnah: Using the Siwak, trimming the mustache, rinsing the mouth, rinsing the nose, letting the beard grow, trimming the nails, plucking the armpit hairs, circumcision, shaving the pubes and washing one's backside."Sunan an-Nasa'i 5042https://sunnah.com/nasai:5042It was narrated from 'Aishah that: The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said: "Ten things are part of the Fitrah: Trimming the mustache, trimming the nails, washing the joints, letting the beard grow, using the Siwak, rinsing the nose, plucking the armpit hairs, shaving the pubes, and washing with water (after relieving oneself)." Mus'ab bin Shaibah said: "I have forgotten the tenth, unless it was rinsing the mouth."Sunan an-Nasa'i 5040https://sunnah.com/nasai:5040The Prophet ﷺ instructed specific hygienic acts that align with human nature:Using the Miswak: A natural tooth-cleaning stick. The Prophet ﷺ said:“The siwak is a means of purification for the mouth and pleasing to the Lord.”(Sunan an-Nasa'i 5, sunnah.com/nasai:5)Trimming the Mustache: It should not exceed the upper lip for cleanliness.Growing the Beard: A sign of obedience as the Prophet ﷺ commanded to let the beard grow and trim the mustache.(Sahih al-Bukhari 5892, sunnah.com/bukhari:5892)Clipping Nails, Plucking Armpit Hair, and Shaving Pubic Hair: Essential for hygiene and modesty. The Prophet ﷺ advised not exceeding forty days without performing these acts.(Sahih Muslim 258, sunnah.com/muslim:258)Islam integrates physical cleanliness with spiritual purity. By following these Sunnah practices, a Muslim maintains not only hygienic health but also strengthens their obedience to Allah. Purifying the body mirrors purifying the soul, reflecting the holistic beauty of Islam.ConclusionShaykh Assim Al-Hakeem concludes that the true believer embraces both aspects of Fitrah — spiritual faith and physical cleanliness — maintaining the purity Allah created us upon. These daily Sunnah practices cultivate discipline, gratitude, and closeness to Allah.
Understanding the Correct Creed: Insights from Shaykh Ahmad Al-Romh | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at ZAD AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,In the pursuit of authentic Islamic knowledge, ZAD Academy remains a beacon for students around the world, combining classical scholarship with modern education. This reflection from Shaykh Ahmad Al-Romh's lecture on Aqeedah (Creed) explores what it means to hold the belief of Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama‘ah, the people of the Sunnah and the community.The lecture begins by encouraging believers to seek beneficial knowledge that nurtures both faith and intellect. Knowledge in Islam is not merely theoretical; it brings spiritual growth, discipline, and clarity. ZAD Academy promotes this principle, integrating technology and faith-based learning to equip students with the tools to spread ‘Ilm Shar‘i (religious knowledge).A cornerstone of the Islamic creed is the full submission to Allah's command and the Messenger's guidance. Allah says:“O you who believe! Enter into Islam completely and do not follow the footsteps of Satan. Indeed, he is to you a clear enemy.”(Surah Al-Baqarah 2:208, quran.com/2/208)Submission means that a believer accepts divine revelation without hesitation or doubt, recognizing that guidance comes only from Allah and His Messenger ﷺ. True faith manifests through obedience, not preference or personal interpretation.This principle is reaffirmed in another verse:“It is not for a believing man or woman—when Allah and His Messenger decree a matter—to have any other choice in that matter. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has truly gone far astray.”(Surah Al-Ahzab 33:36, quran.com/33/36)True believers are those who submit wholeheartedly to the judgment of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Allah says:“But no! By your Lord, they will never believe until they make you (O Muhammad) judge in their disputes, and find within themselves no discomfort about your decision, and submit in full submission.”(Surah An-Nisa 4:65, quran.com/4/65)Faith requires both internal conviction and external submission to what Allah and His Messenger have ordained.The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ warned against excessive praise and exaggeration, saying:“Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians praised the son of Mary. I am only a servant, so call me the servant of Allah and His Messenger.”(Sahih al-Bukhari 3445, sunnah.com/bukhari:3445)Islam calls for balance and humility in worship. It rejects extremes while focusing on following the Prophet ﷺ sincerely in both action and belief.The correct creed is founded on faith, submission, and glorification of Allah. It is a natural disposition that removes doubt and strengthens conviction. Through platforms like ZAD Academy, students learn to embody these values, ensuring that knowledge leads to action, faith, and steadfastness upon the truth.References:Qur'an: 2:208, 33:36, 4:65Hadith: Sahih al-Bukhari 3445

Kasus dugaan korupsi dana haji yang tengah disidik KPK kembali menjadi sorotan publik. Di tengah proses hukum itu, pemerintah juga melakukan penataan kelembagaan dengan mengubah Badan Penyelenggara Haji dan Umrah menjadi kementerian. Masa transisi ini menjadi ujian penting bagi tata kelola penyelenggaraan haji agar tetap transparan dan berpihak pada jemaah.Sementara itu, Indonesia tengah mempersiapkan pembangunan Kampung Haji di Mekah sebagai langkah strategis meningkatkan pelayanan bagi jemaah.

The Seventy Branches of Faith: Removing Harm and Embracing Modesty | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at Zad AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,Today's reflection highlights an essential teaching in Islam: the significance of small but sincere actions, and the role of modesty as a branch of true faith.One of the easiest and most impactful good deeds in Islam is to remove something harmful from the road. This act, praised by the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, is not just an act of public service but a means for attaining Allah's forgiveness and mercy.As narrated by Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him):"While a man was on the way, he found a thorny branch of a tree on the road and removed it. Allah thanked him for that deed and forgave him."— Sahih al-Bukhari 2472 (sunnah.com/bukhari:2472)This hadith shows that even the smallest act, done with the right intention, is greatly valued by Allah. It teaches Muslims to prioritize benefiting others and being aware of the needs of the community.The Messenger of Allah ﷺ explained the nature of iman (faith):"Faith has over seventy branches or over sixty branches, the most excellent of which is the declaration that there is no god but Allah, and the humblest of which is the removal of what is injurious from the path: and modesty is a branch of faith."— Sahih Muslim 35b (sunnah.com/muslim:35b)This narration underlines that faith is not just a belief in the heart, but also a series of actions and qualities. The highest is to testify “La ilaha illa Allah”—that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah—and even acts that seem minor, like clearing a path, are included in faith.The Prophet ﷺ further explained that modesty (hayā') is a vital branch of faith. Modesty is not simply shyness; it is an internal feeling that inspires obedience to Allah and avoidance of what displeases Him, whether in public or private.Allah the Most High says:"Tell the believing men to lower their gaze and guard their private parts; that is purer for them. Indeed, Allah is acquainted with what they do."— Qur'an 24:30 (quran.com/24/30)Modesty (hayā') promotes self-control, sincerity, and constant remembrance that Allah is watching. It protects a person from sins and encourages righteous conduct in all aspects of life.Every part of faith—belief, speech, or deed—must be rooted in the guidance of the Qur'an and Sunnah. The Quran confirms the importance of learning worship and manners directly from divine revelation:"Nor does he speak from his own inclination. It is but a revelation revealed."— Qur'an 53:3-4 (quran.com/53/3-4)By following both the Qur'an and the Sunnah, a Muslim's declaration of faith becomes sound and complete.Islam emphasizes beneficial action and inner refinement as part of true faith. Removing harm from the road, practicing modesty, and prioritizing sincerity in both public and private—all are vital branches of Iman that bring a believer closer to Allah's mercy. Let every act, no matter how small, be a seed of Paradise.May Allah allow us all to perfect our Iman by upholding every branch, and reward us for sincerity in action and character. Until next time, I leave you in the care of Allah.
Seerah 01-05: The Early Revelation of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,I am Zayd Haji, a student at Zad Academy.The life of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ can be divided into two important phases: the Meccan period and the Madinan period. Each stage had unique lessons and challenges, shaping the message of Islam. This blog post explores the preparation, first revelation, and the early prophetic experiences of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, derived from authentic sources of the Qur'an and Hadith.The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was born into Mecca and lived for 40 years before receiving the divine revelation. Although orphaned at an early age, Allah Himself protected and nurtured him. His father passed away before his birth, his mother when he was six, and his grandfather at eight. Despite these hardships, Allah preserved him from idolatry, immorality, and the common practices of ignorance prevalent in Mecca.“Did He not find you an orphan and give you refuge? And He found you lost and guided you.” (Qur'an 93:6-7, Quran.com)From his youth, the Prophet ﷺ was known as Al-Amin (the trustworthy). His people trusted him with their belongings and respected his wisdom. However, the Prophet ﷺ never worshipped idols nor engaged in their practices, distancing himself from shirk.Seeking closeness to Allah, the Prophet ﷺ would spend days in the Cave of Hira reflecting upon creation and the Oneness of God. This period of reflection was part of Allah's divine preparation for the great responsibility of prophethood.As Allah says:“Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of the night and the day are signs for those of understanding.” (Qur'an 3:190, Quran.com)The Prophet ﷺ's fitrah (pure nature) inclined him to worship the Creator alone, though he did not yet know the exact way until the revelation began.When the Prophet ﷺ was in the cave at the age of 40, the Angel Jibreel (Gabriel) appeared and commanded him, “Iqra” (Read/Recite). The Prophet ﷺ replied, “I cannot read.” This happened three times until Jibreel revealed the first verses of the Qur'an:“Recite in the name of your Lord who created. Created man from a clinging substance. Recite, and your Lord is the most Generous – Who taught by the pen – Taught man that which he knew not.” (Qur'an 96:1-5, Quran.com)Startled by the experience, the Prophet ﷺ rushed home to Khadijah (may Allah be pleased with her), who comforted and reassured him. She reminded him of his noble character, saying Allah would never disgrace one who helps the poor, supports the needy, and maintains kinship ties.After a brief pause in revelation, the Prophet ﷺ once again encountered Angel Jibreel in his full majestic form, filling the horizon. The second revelation confirmed his mission, not only as a prophet but as a messenger sent to warn humanity:“O you who covers himself with a garment, arise and warn. And glorify your Lord. And purify your garments. And avoid uncleanliness.” (Qur'an 74:1-5, Quran.com)The Prophet ﷺ never faltered in conveying the message, for Allah assured him:“Your companion [Muhammad] has not strayed, nor has he erred. Nor does he speak from [his own] inclination. It is not but a revelation revealed.” (Qur'an 53:2-4, Quran.com)The early life of the Prophet ﷺ teaches us that Allah prepares His chosen ones with patience, trials, and protection.Seclusion and reflection are paths toward spiritual clarity.The Qur'an is a direct source of guidance revealed through Allah's mercy, and it must remain central in our lives.Supporting others, helping the poor, and maintaining honesty bring Allah's support and blessings.The Prophet ﷺ said:“The most beloved of deeds to Allah are those that are most consistent, even if they are few.” (Sahih al-Bukhari, Hadith 6464, Sunnah.com)By following his example of sincerity, consistency, and devotion, we too can strengthen our faith and relationship with Allah.
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,I am Zayd Haji, a student at Zad Academy.All praise is due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, his family, companions, and all those who follow them until the Day of Judgment.In this blog, I will summarize a lesson from Zad Academy about major works of Tafsir (Qur'anic exegesis), focusing on their methodologies, authenticity, and contributions to Islamic scholarship.The Qur'an is the divine revelation sent for the guidance of humanity. Allah says:“This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those conscious of Allah.” (Qur'an 2:2, Quran.com)To correctly understand the Qur'an, scholars devoted their lives in compiling Tafsir, drawing from the authentic Sunnah, statements of the Sahabah (companions), and reliable reports. The Prophet ﷺ emphasized the importance of knowledge when he said:“When Allah intends good for someone, He gives him understanding of the religion.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 71, Sunnah.com)Thus, Tafsir books remain critical in preserving the proper context, meanings, and rulings derived from the Qur'an.Imam al-Alawi (d. 516 AH) authored a summarized Tafsir that became widely acknowledged for its authenticity and reliability. He purified his Tafsir from weak and fabricated narrations, especially removing the Isra'iliyyat (Judeo-Christian reports) that had entered into earlier works.His methodology was based on:Authentic narrations from the Prophet ﷺ and his companions.Avoidance of weak hadiths and baseless stories.Presenting commentary in a concise and practical manner.Allah reminds us of the responsibility of transmitting knowledge truthfully:“And do not mix the truth with falsehood or conceal the truth while you know [it].” (Qur'an 2:42, Quran.com)Another major contribution in Tafsir literature is Tafsir al-Qurtubi, authored by Imam al-Qurtubi (d. 671 AH) from Andalusia (modern-day Spain). His Tafsir focused on the legal and jurisprudential (Fiqh) rulings derived from the Qur'an. While he was primarily a Maliki scholar, he openly discussed opinions from all major schools of Islamic law, showing fairness and breadth of scholarship.His methodology involved:Grouping verses dealing with legal or thematic issues.Explaining reasons for revelation (Asbab al-Nuzul).Addressing linguistic analyses and contextual details.Comparing scholarly opinions with evidence from Qur'an and Sunnah.This made his Tafsir not just a commentary, but an encyclopedic work in Qur'anic legal rulings.The comparison of scholars such as Imam al-Alawi, Imam al-Qurtubi, and earlier authorities like Ibn Jarir al-Tabari shows the diversity of approaches to Tafsir. Some focused on narrations, others on Fiqh rulings, while all remained committed to preserving the meanings of Allah's speech.The Prophet ﷺ said:“The most truthful speech is the Book of Allah, and the best guidance is the guidance of Muhammad.” (Sahih Muslim 867, Sunnah.com)Therefore, Tafsir plays a vital role in linking Muslims to authentic understanding, free from innovations and distortions.Reliability in Tafsir depends on strict adherence to Qur'an and authentic Sunnah.Weak and fabricated narrations must be removed to preserve purity of interpretation.Scholars throughout history sought to clarify, authenticate, and transmit these works for the benefit of future generations.Students must approach Tafsir sincerely, with the intention of seeking Allah's pleasure and acting upon knowledge.Allah says:“And say, ‘My Lord, increase me in knowledge.'” (Qur'an 20:114, Quran.com)From Imam al-Alawi's purification of Tafsir literature to Imam al-Qurtubi's focus on Qur'anic rulings, these works remain essential for Muslims striving to understand their faith deeply. The methodologies of great scholars teach us the importance of preserving authenticity, sincerity, and balance in Islamic scholarship.
Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,The Companions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ (the Sahabah) are the best generation of this Ummah. Allah praised them in the Qur'an, and the Prophet ﷺ affirmed their excellence in many authentic hadith. Love for them is part of faith, while hatred towards them is hypocrisy. In this post, we will explore Quranic verses and authentic narrations highlighting their rank and why they remain role models for all Muslims.Allah the Most High declared His pleasure with the earliest Muslims who sacrificed everything for His cause:“And the first forerunners among the Muhajirun and the Ansar and those who followed them with good conduct – Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Him.” (Qur'an 9:100, Quran.com)This verse establishes their lofty status and guarantees Allah's pleasure for the sincere followers of their path.Similarly, Allah commands the later generations of believers:“And those who came after them say: Our Lord, forgive us and our brothers who preceded us in faith, and put not in our hearts any resentment toward those who have believed. Our Lord, indeed You are Kind and Merciful.” (Qur'an 59:10, Quran.com)The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ explicitly confirmed the superiority of his Companions:“The best of my nation is my generation, then those who follow them, then those who follow them.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 3650, Sahih Muslim 2533, Sunnah.com)This hadith establishes that the Sahabah are the best of people after the Prophets. Following their way is guidance, while opposing them is misguidance.It was reported that Ali ibn Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked: “Who are the best people after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?” He replied: “Abu Bakr.” They asked: “Then who?” He said: “Umar.” They asked: “Then who?” He said: “Uthman.” When asked about himself, he said: “I am only a man among the Muslims.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 3671, Sunnah.com)Furthermore, Umar ibn al-Khattab (RA) said: “During the lifetime of the Prophet ﷺ, we used to consider the best of people to be Abu Bakr, then Umar, then Uthman.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 3697, Sunnah.com)The Prophet ﷺ gave glad tidings of Jannah to ten companions by name:“Abu Bakr is in Paradise, Umar is in Paradise, Uthman is in Paradise, Ali is in Paradise, Talhah is in Paradise, al-Zubayr ibn al-‘Awwam is in Paradise, Abdur Rahman ibn Awf is in Paradise, Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas is in Paradise, Sa'id ibn Zayd is in Paradise, and Abu ‘Ubaydah ibn al-Jarrah is in Paradise.” (Jami‘ at-Tirmidhi 3747, Sunnah.com)This authentic narration highlights their guaranteed success with Allah's mercy.The Prophet ﷺ warned against belittling or insulting the Sahabah:“Do not revile my Companions, for if one of you were to spend gold equal to Mount Uhud, it would not equal a handful of what they spent, nor even half of it.” (Sahih al-Bukhari 3673, Sahih Muslim 2540, Sunnah.com)This hadith affirms their incomparable rank.The Prophet ﷺ advised the Ummah to stick to the guidance of the rightly guided Caliphs:Narrated Al-'Irbad bin Sariyah: "One day after the morning Salat, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) exhorted us to the extent that the eyes wept and the hearts shuddered with fear. A man said: 'Indeed this is a farewell exhortation. [So what] do you order us O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'I order you to have Taqwa of Allah, and to listen and obey, even in the case of an Ethiopian slave. Indeed, whomever among you lives, he will see much difference. Beware of the newly invented matters, for indeed they are astray. Whoever among you sees that, then he must stick to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided Khulafa', cling to it with the molars.'"Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2676https://sunnah.com/tirmidhi:2676The Sahabah were the best of this Ummah, chosen by Allah to support His Messenger ﷺ. As seekers of knowledge, we must honor their legacy, study their lives, and follow their path sincerely, as Allah and His Messenger have commanded.

Etiquettes of Relieving Oneself in Islam | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at Zad AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,I am Zayd Haji, a student at Zad Academy. One of the most beautiful aspects of Islam is that it provides guidance for every part of our daily life, including something as natural as relieving oneself. While this may seem simple, the Prophet ﷺ taught us etiquettes that preserve purity, modesty, and respect for Allah's blessings.Allah ﷻ commands purification in the Qur'an:“Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves.”(Qur'an, Surah Al-Baqarah 2:222)
Sources of Aqeedah in Islam | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at Zad AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,I am Zayd Haji, a student at Zad Academy. In this blog, I will summarize a key lesson on the sources of Aqeedah (Islamic creed). Aqeedah is the foundation of our faith, and it must be taken from authentic sources: the Qur'an, the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ, and the consensus of the righteous predecessors.The Qur'an is the first and most important source of Aqeedah. Allah warns against opposing the Messenger ﷺ and abandoning the path of the believers:“And whoever opposes the Messenger after guidance has become clear to him and follows other than the way of the believers – We will turn him to what he has chosen and drive him into Hell, and evil it is as a destination.”(Qur'an, Surah An-Nisa 4:115)
Tafsir Books in Islam | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at Zad AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,I am Zayd Haji, a student at Zad Academy.Alhamdulillah, in this lesson we continue our journey in understanding Tafsir (interpretation of the Qur'an). Tafsir is essential for Muslims because it helps us understand the divine words of Allah ﷻ in their correct meaning. Scholars throughout history have written great works of Tafsir, and in this article, we will explore the most famous classical books of Tafsir, their methodologies, and why they remain important today.Allah ﷻ says:“Indeed, this Qur'an guides to that which is most suitable and gives good tidings to the believers who do righteous deeds that they will have a great reward.”(Qur'an, Surah Al-Isra 17:9 — Quran.com/17/9)Understanding the Qur'an requires correct explanation. The Prophet ﷺ emphasized the importance of knowledge:“The best of you are those who learn the Qur'an and teach it.”(Sahih al-Bukhari 5027 — Sunnah.com/bukhari:5027)Therefore, the science of Tafsir developed to preserve authentic understanding and protect the Qur'an from misinterpretation.Scholars classified Tafsir into two main categories:Tafsir bil-Ma'thūr (Tafsir by transmission): Based on the Qur'an itself, Hadith of the Prophet ﷺ, sayings of the Companions (Sahabah), and the early generations (Tabi‘un).Tafsir bil-Ra'y (Tafsir by opinion): Based on scholarly reasoning. Some of it is accepted when it aligns with authentic knowledge, but it is rejected when it contradicts Qur'an, Sunnah, or established reports.The Prophet ﷺ warned against interpreting the Qur'an without knowledge:“Whoever speaks about the Qur'an without knowledge, let him take his seat in the Fire.”(Sunan al-Tirmidhi 2950 — Sunnah.com/tirmidhi:2950)Imam Abu Ja‘far Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari (d. 310H) wrote one of the earliest and greatest works of Tafsir. His book relied heavily on narrations from the Prophet ﷺ, the Companions, and the Tabi‘un. However, he also included reports from the Isra'iliyyat (Jewish and Christian traditions), which require caution. Despite this, scholars considered his Tafsir among the most authentic classical works.Imam Isma‘il ibn Kathir (d. 774H) authored Tafsir al-Qur'an al-‘Azim, which became one of the most widely used Tafsirs. He was very cautious with Isra'iliyyat and critiqued weak narrations. His Tafsir remains a cornerstone of Qur'anic understanding and has been translated into English and many other languages.Rely on authentic sources: Qur'an, Hadith, Sahabah, and early scholars.Be cautious of Isra'iliyyat: Some narrations may be weak or fabricated.Compare methodologies: Al-Tabari included Isra'iliyyat more frequently, while Ibn Kathir critiqued them and warned readers.Tafsir is a noble science that protects the meanings of the Qur'an and preserves the understanding of the early generations. Both Tafsir al-Tabari and Tafsir Ibn Kathir are treasures of Islamic scholarship. As students of knowledge, we must approach them with care, respect, and reliance on authentic chains of transmission.May Allah ﷻ grant us beneficial knowledge and guide us to the truth.
The Rights of the Prophet ﷺ | ZAD Academy Audio | Blogpost by Zayd HajiBy Zayd Haji – Student at Zad AcademyAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,I am Zayd Haji, a student at Zad Academy.Alhamdulillah, we continue our journey in Islamic education by discussing the rights of our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Loving the Prophet, following him sincerely, and avoiding extremism in his regard are among the greatest obligations of every believer. These rights are rooted in the Qur'an and Sunnah, guiding us to balance love with correct belief and practice.The Prophet ﷺ holds the highest status a human being can attain—servitude to Allah ﷻ and prophethood. Allah ﷻ says:“Say, [O Muhammad], I am only a man like you, to whom has been revealed that your god is one God.”(Qur'an, Surah Al-Kahf 18:110 — Quran.com/18/110)While we must love the Prophet ﷺ more than ourselves, parents, and children, we are forbidden from exaggerating his status by attributing divine qualities to him. The Prophet ﷺ warned:“Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians praised the son of Mary, for I am only a slave. So call me the slave of Allah and His Messenger.”(Sahih al-Bukhari 3445 — Sunnah.com/bukhari:3445)Thus, claiming that the Prophet ﷺ was created from light, that he had no human qualities like shade, or that all creation was made for him, contradicts the Qur'an and authentic Sunnah.True love for the Prophet ﷺ means obedience. Allah ﷻ says:“He who obeys the Messenger has indeed obeyed Allah.”(Qur'an, Surah An-Nisa 4:80 — Quran.com/4/80)Innovations such as celebrating the Prophet's birthday (Mawlid) or swearing by his name were never practiced by the early generations. Instead, the Prophet ﷺ commanded:Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "If somebody innovates something which is not in harmony with the principles of our religion, that thing is rejected."(Sahih al-Bukhari 2697 — Sunnah.com/bukhari:2697)Therefore, the correct way to honor him is to follow his Sunnah inwardly and outwardly, avoiding additions to the religion.Among the Prophet's rights is love for his family and respect for his companions. He ﷺ said:“I remind you by Allah concerning my family.”(Sahih Muslim 2408 — Sunnah.com/muslim:2408)Regarding his companions, he ﷺ warned:“Do not abuse my companions, for if one of you were to spend gold equal to Uhud, it would not equal a handful or even half of what they gave.”(Sahih al-Bukhari 3673 — Sunnah.com/bukhari:3673)Loving and defending them is part of loving the Prophet ﷺ.The rights of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ include love, obedience, following his Sunnah, avoiding extremism, respecting his family, and honoring his companions. True love is shown through adherence to revelation, not by exaggeration or innovation.Allah ﷻ says:“Say, [O Muhammad], if you love Allah, then follow me; Allah will love you and forgive you your sins.”(Qur'an, Surah Aal ‘Imran 3:31 — Quran.com/3/31)Following the Prophet ﷺ sincerely is the path to Allah's mercy, guidance, and Paradise.

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh, I am Zayd Haji, a student at Zad Academy. In this blogpost, we will explore the marriages of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, their wisdom, and the noble role of the Mothers of the Believers. Islam teaches that marriage is a natural way to channel human inclinations through halal means. The Prophet ﷺ, like all human beings, married, but his marriages carried wisdom, mercy, and service to Islam.1. Marriage to Khadijah (RA)As a young man of 25, the Prophet ﷺ worked in trade under Khadijah (RA), a respected businesswoman. She witnessed his honesty, trustworthiness, and noble character through her servant Maysarah. Impressed, she proposed marriage. Despite turning down many dignitaries, Khadijah chose the Prophet ﷺ.The Prophet ﷺ married her, and their marriage lasted 25 years. He never married another woman during her lifetime. She was about 40 years old, and he was 25. From her, he had all his children except Ibrahim, who was born later from Maria al-Qibtiyya.Narrated Abu Musa Al-Ash`ari: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Many amongst men attained perfection but amongst women none attained the perfection except Mary, the daughter of `Imran and Asiya, the wife of Pharaoh. And the superiority of `Aisha to other women is like the superiority of Tharid (i.e. an Arabic dish) to other meals."Sahih al-Bukhari 3769https://sunnah.com/bukhari:37692. His ChildrenWith Khadijah (RA), he had:Qasim (after whom he was nicknamed Abul Qasim)Abdullah (al-Tayyib or al-Tahir)Four daughters: Zaynab, Ruqayyah, Umm Kulthum, and Fatimah (RA).All his sons died in childhood. His daughter Fatimah (RA) died six months after him. His son Ibrahim, from Maria al-Qibtiyya, also died at two years old. The Prophet ﷺ bore these losses with patience and trust in Allah's decree.Allah says:“And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to the patient.”(Surah Al-Baqarah 2:155, quran.com)3. Marriages After KhadijahAfter Khadijah's death, the Prophet ﷺ married several women. Most were widows or divorced women who needed protection and support. His marriages also built alliances and conveyed the private aspects of his Sunnah.Among his wives were:Sawda bint Zamʿa (RA) – a widow.Aisha bint Abu Bakr (RA) – the only virgin wife, who narrated over 2,000 hadith.Zaynab bint Jahsh (RA) – whose marriage abolished pre-Islamic adoption (Surah al-Ahzab 33:37, quran.com).Umm Salama (RA) – a widow with children.Hafsa bint Umar (RA) – daughter of Umar ibn al-Khattab.Safiyyah bint Huyayy (RA) – from a Jewish background, honored through marriage after embracing Islam.Juwayriya bint al-Harith (RA) – her marriage led to the freeing of many captives.Maymunah bint al-Harith (RA) – the last wife he married.These marriages were not driven by desire but by divine wisdom, mercy for widows, strengthening community bonds, and preserving the Prophet's Sunnah.4. Wisdom of His MarriagesThe Prophet's ﷺ marriages taught Muslims:Compassion – caring for widows and orphans.Social Justice – freeing captives through marriage.Preservation of Knowledge – his wives conveyed intimate details of his private life for the Ummah's guidance.Allah says:“The Prophet is more worthy of the believers than themselves, and his wives are their mothers.” (Surah al-Ahzab 33:6, quran.com)The Prophet's ﷺ marriages were acts of mercy, justice, and divine wisdom. Khadijah (RA) was his first and most beloved wife. The Mothers of the Believers played an essential role in preserving Islam. Through his marriages, we learn lessons of patience, responsibility, and the importance of family.Notes:Khadijah (RA) was the Prophet's only wife during her lifetime.All his children except Ibrahim were from Khadijah.Most later marriages were to widows and served noble purposes.Aisha (RA) preserved much of the Sunnah.His wives are the Mothers of the Believers, honored forever in Islam.

Faith and Knowledge in Islam: Lessons from Abu Hurairah and the Branches of ImanAssalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh,I am Zayd Haji, a student at Zad Academy. Today, I want to share a reflection on the importance of beneficial knowledge and the role of faith (Iman) in shaping our lives, inspired by the words of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and the legacy of his noble companion, Abu Hurairah (RA).Knowledge as a Growing LightIslam encourages seeking every form of beneficial knowledge. Just as the world advances with new sciences and technologies, Muslims are urged to use these tools to develop and present Islamic knowledge in ways that benefit society. The Qur'an emphasizes:“Say, ‘Are those who know equal to those who do not know?'” (Qur'an 39:9, quran.com/39/9)Knowledge in Islam is compared to a pure spring — quenching the thirst of those who long for guidance from the Qur'an and Sunnah. Like flowers blooming in a garden, knowledge brings life, beauty, and clarity to the heart.Abu Hurairah (RA): A Guardian of HadithOne of the most well-known narrators of hadith is Abu Hurairah (RA), whose real name was Abd al-Rahman ibn Sakhr al-Dawsi. He embraced Islam and devoted his life to preserving the sayings of the Prophet ﷺ. Living through the caliphates of Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman (RA), he became a key source of prophetic traditions for the Muslim Ummah.Abd al-Rahman b. Auf reported: I heard Mu'awiya b. Abu Sufyan saying in an address that he had heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying: He to whom Allah intends to do good, He gives him insight into religion. And I am only the distributor while Allah is the Bestower.Sahih Muslim 1037bhttps://sunnah.com/muslim:1037bThis highlights the value of companions like Abu Hurairah (RA), who dedicated their lives to preserving and teaching knowledge.It is narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace and blessings be upon him) said: Faith has over seventy branches or over sixty branches, the most excellent of which is the declaration that there is no god but Allah, and the humblest of which is the, removal of what is injurious from the path: and modesty is a branch of faith.Sahih Muslim 35bhttps://sunnah.com/muslim:35bThis hadith shows that Iman is comprehensive: it covers belief, worship, manners, and service to others. Even a simple act like removing harm from a pathway is part of faith, while modesty (ḥayāʾ) is highlighted as a key characteristic of a true believer.In today's world, modesty is often undervalued, yet the Prophet ﷺ described it as an essential part of faith. The Qur'an commands both men and women to lower their gaze and guard their modesty:“Tell the believing men to lower their gaze and guard their chastity… and tell the believing women to lower their gaze and guard their chastity.” (Qur'an 24:30-31, quran.com/24/30-31)This shows that modesty is not just about clothing but about humility, respect, and self-discipline.Important NotesKnowledge is a divine gift — it must be sought with sincerity and used to serve Islam.Abu Hurairah (RA) preserved more hadith than any other companion, a blessing for the Ummah.Faith has 70+ branches — from major declarations to small everyday actions.Modesty (ḥayāʾ) is a key branch of faith and should be nurtured in personal and public life.Iman is practical — it combines belief, speech, actions, and character.Conclusion:Faith and knowledge are inseparable in Islam. Just as beneficial knowledge grows and spreads like flowers in a garden, faith grows stronger through belief, worship, and good manners. May Allah grant us understanding of our religion and allow us to embody the branches of Iman in our lives.“Indeed, Allah loves those who rely upon Him.” (Qur'an 3:159, quran.com/3/159)

(Víspera del Día Internacional de la Bañera) ¿Acaso el darse un baño puede causar la muerte de una persona? Ese bien pudo haber sido el diagnóstico forense en el caso del ermitaño iraní Amou Haji, considerado el hombre más sucio del mundo. Ya había cumplido los noventa y cuatro años cuando murió, pero sucedió casualmente poco tiempo después de bañarse tras haber pasado más de sesenta de esos años sin tomar una ducha o asearse. A lo largo de su vida, Haji había evitado bañarse por temor a enfermarse. No es de extrañar, entonces, que no tuviera esposa ni parientes cercanos. En un documental de 2013 titulado «La extraña vida de Amou Haji», se dio a conocer en el mundo entero, con la piel cubierta de mugre y el cabello enmarañado. Reveló que había experimentado «contratiempos emocionales en su juventud» que lo llevaron a aislarse y a detestar la idea misma de bañarse o de sentir el agua sobre la piel. Y por si eso fuera poco, en vez de ingerir comida y bebidas frescas, ¡su alimento favorito era el puercoespín podrido; tomaba cinco litros de agua al día, que recogía de charcos cercanos, en una lata de aceite oxidada; comía animales muertos que conseguía atropellados; y fumaba excrementos de animales en una pipa vieja! Uno de los médicos que examinaron a Haji antes de su muerte concluyó que pudo mantenerse saludable debido a haber desarrollado un fuerte sistema inmunológico después de décadas de vivir en semejantes condiciones.1 Fue así como aquel ermitaño iraní vivió en carne propia la frase proverbial: «La cáscara guarda el palo», que quiere decir que es la corteza (la cáscara) la que protege (o, guarda) al árbol (o, palo) de cualquier agresión externa. La sabiduría popular coincidió nuevamente con la experiencia científica, ya que una amplia gama de inmunólogos y médicos consienten en que el exceso de limpieza hace que el sistema inmune del cuerpo humano pierda funcionalidad o se debilite hasta hacerlo más vulnerable. La idea es que si nos aseamos con demasiada frecuencia, perderemos parte de la barrera protectora de la piel, quedando así expuestos a los ataques de bacterias, virus u otros patógenos «desconocidos» por nuestro sistema inmunitario.2 ¿Será que nos conviene, entonces, huir del agua «como gato escaldado»? ¡Claro que no! Debemos más bien, sin exceso, aprovecharla al máximo. Y así como necesitamos el aseo bien medido para nuestro cuerpo, también necesitamos el aseo para nuestro espíritu. Pues todos nosotros somos como un trapo sucio, tal como nos describe el profeta Isaías, y nuestros pecados nos arrastran como el viento.3 No dejemos que ninguna idea descabellada nos lleve a esperar un día más para tomarnos ese baño espiritual que tanta falta nos hace. Aprovechemos más bien, ahora mismo, la limpieza espiritual que procede de reconocer ante Dios que hemos pecado, tal como nos explica el apóstol Juan, seguros de que Dios, que es fiel y justo, perdonará nuestros pecados y nos limpiará de toda maldad.4 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 «Su comida favorita era el puercoespín podrido: muere “el hombre más sucio del mundo” a los 94 años, poco tiempo después de bañarse tras pasar más de medio siglo sin asearse», Diario El Universo, 26 octubre 2022 En línea 22 noviembre 2022; Juan Espinoza, «Muere el hombre más sucio del mundo: ¿Cómo murió Amou Haji?», Ahora Mismo, 25 octubre 2022 En línea 22 noviembre 2024. 2 Luis Rivero, «La cáscara guarda el palo», Periódico El Día: La opinión de Tenerife, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, 18 julio 2020 En línea 22 noviembre 2024. 3 Is 64:6 4 1Jn 1:9
