Podcasts about hijrah

Tonight is the night of Badr.On this night, 1,443 years ago, 313 Muslim men camped on the plains of Badr — underprepared, outnumbered more than three to one — on the eve of a battle that would determine whether Islam survived or was extinguished.There is no tafseer of Surah Al-A'raf tonight. Tonight belongs to Badr.How They Got ThereThe Muslims left Madinah on the 12th of Ramadan. The mission was straightforward: intercept Abu Sufyan's caravan returning from Syria — the largest trading caravan the Quraysh had ever assembled, loaded with profits from goods financed largely by wealth confiscated from the Muslims at the time of Hijrah. Not a battle. An interception.But Abu Sufyan's scouts were sharp. One of the Bedouin trackers found camel droppings along the route, opened them, and recognised the date pits inside as coming from the farms of Madinah. The Muslims were tracking them. Abu Sufyan immediately rerouted and sent the fastest rider in his group back to Makkah — the rider sliced the nose of his camel and smeared the blood on himself to arrive with maximum drama, ensuring the message landed with urgency.Abu Jahl raised 1,300 men. Not to protect the caravan — the caravan had already escaped. This was about something else now. We are going to crush Islam and the Muslims once and for all.By the time 300 of that army turned back — satisfied that their property was safe — 1,000 Quraysh warriors were marching toward Badr with that single purpose.The Muslims, meanwhile, had 313 men. Two horses. Seventy camels. And eight swords.They had not come prepared for battle. They had expected a small caravan escort — ten, twenty, thirty men at most. They found an army.And they did not turn back.The Leadership of the Prophet ﷺWhen the Prophet ﷺ chose a campsite on the plains of Badr, a companion — al-Hubab ibn al-Mundhir — approached him and asked a remarkable question: Ya Rasulullah, is this position based on revelation from Allah, or is this your personal judgement?The Prophet ﷺ said: personal judgement.Al-Hubab said: in that case, may I suggest we move further forward — to the wells of Badr — so that we control the Quraysh's access to water?The Prophet ﷺ accepted. He moved the entire army.This is a man who could have said: I am the Prophet of Allah, my opinion is final. He said nothing of the sort. He distinguished clearly between what came from Allah and what came from his own thinking. And when a companion had a better idea, he took it.A leader who cannot be corrected is a leader who will eventually fail. The Prophet ﷺ modelled the opposite: you are not any stronger than me, and I am not any less in need of the reward from Allah. When they shared rides on the 160-kilometre journey — three men, including the Prophet ﷺ, rotating on one camel — his companions begged him to ride the whole way. He refused. He walked his share.The Night BeforeThat night, with a thousand armed men across the plain, Allah gave the Muslims a gift: sleep.Anyone who has had a major exam, a difficult interview, a high-stakes day ahead knows what that night feels like. You lie awake. The mind races. The Muslims knew what was coming — and they slept.Allah also sent light rain on the Muslim side. The ground compacted. The march in the morning would be firm underfoot. On the Quraysh side, Allah sent heavy rain. Sleepless. Muddy ground. No access to water. Before a single sword was raised, the advantage had already shifted.The Prophet ﷺ spent much of that night in dua — arms raised so intensely that his shawl fell to the ground. Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, waking before Fajr, wrapped it back around his shoulders and stood listening. Among the duas the Prophet ﷺ made that night: Ya Allah, if You destroy this group, You will never be worshipped on this earth again. These were the best of the Muslim men. Most of them. If they fell here, there would be no rebuilding.The dhikr of Badr — the one the Prophet ﷺ repeated through that night and into the battle — was Ya Hayyu Ya Qayyum. The Ever-Living. The Ever-Sustaining. The One who holds everything in existence. Repeat this in your own difficult nights.Islam Is a Salad BowlWhen the Prophet ﷺ organised his army on the morning of battle, he divided them into three groups: the Muhajirin on the right, led by Sayyidina Ali; the Ansar on the left, led by Sayyidina Sa'd ibn Mu'adh; and a mixed group at the centre, where the Prophet ﷺ stood himself, with the banner held by Mus'ab ibn Umayr — the first companion to migrate to Madinah, the man through whose teaching most of the Ansar had embraced Islam.Why keep them separate? Why not one unified mass?Because Islam does not erase identity. It never has. The Muhajirin were Meccan. The Ansar were Medinan. Different dialects, different traditions, different cultures — and at this point in history, genuinely different peoples. Islam acknowledged that difference and worked with it. Each group fought with the strength that came from who they were.Islam is not a melting pot. It is a salad bowl. A tomato remains a tomato. A cucumber remains a cucumber. Mixed together, each contributing what it is — they serve something greater than any one of them alone.Keep your cultural identity. Be proud of who Allah made you. Learn your mother tongue. And be equally proud to be Muslim — guided by Islamic principles, united by La ilaha illallah Muhammadur Rasulullah, with Arabic as the thread that connects the entire ummah across every language and culture.Help Comes in Ways You Cannot SeeWhen the battle began, most of the Muslims did not know they were being assisted by angels. They raised their weapons and fought with everything they had. Some were injured. Some were martyred. They had to show up. They had to put in the effort. The help came — but it came to those who were already in the field.Jibreel came wearing a yellow turban, marked like Mus'ab ibn Umayr. A thousand angels — one for every Quraysh soldier — came wearing white, on white horses. The Quraysh saw them coming from across the plain. They did not know what they were seeing.And then Iblis — who had marched alongside the Quraysh in the guise of Suraqah ibn Malik, who had promised them safety, who had said I am with you, no one can defeat you today — Iblis was the first to see the angels. He turned and fled.I see what you do not see. I am afraid of Allah.The Quraysh: You were the one who convinced us to come! You were the one who promised us victory!Iblis said nothing more. He left.This is who Iblis is. He is there when things are going well. The moment the cost becomes real, he disappears. The friends you make in sin will not be there when the consequences arrive.Abdullah ibn Mas'ud — a man so small he stood barely above a metre — captured Sayyidina Abbas, the Prophet's uncle, a giant of a man with a voice that could carry across a battlefield. Abbas was humiliated. He told everyone who saw him: it wasn't this small man — there was someone bigger, someone else who took me down. When Abdullah ibn Mas'ud brought Abbas to the Prophet ﷺ, the Prophet ﷺ confirmed: it was not you, Abdullah. You were assisted by an angel.Do not be arrogant with your success. You put in the effort. But the victory was never yours alone to claim.The Secret of Badr — And of RamadanThe Quran tells us the secret of Badr in Surah Ali Imran in two words: sabr and taqwa.Sabr is steadfastness — continuing on the right path regardless of how difficult it becomes. Taqwa is your living connection with Allah.Ramadan trains both. Every day of fasting hones sabr — the steadfastness to stay on the right path regardless of hunger and exhaustion. Every night of prayer and Quran builds taqwa — the connection with Allah that carries you through what the day alone cannot prepare you for.The Prophet ﷺ won his greatest military victory in Ramadan — on the 17th, on the plains of Badr. His greatest political victory, the Conquest of Makkah, was also in Ramadan. Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas defeated the Persian Sassanid Empire at the Battle of Qadisiyyah in Ramadan. Amr ibn al-As conquered Egypt in Ramadan.The pattern is not coincidence. It is a formula.Fast your days. Pray your nights. And trust that when you show up on the field with whatever weapons you have, Allah will send what you cannot seeBadr Wallpaper for smartphonesBadr Wallpaper for tablets.Badr wallpaper for computersAfter Witr tonight insha'Allah — Salawat Badriyya.Following along with the series?

A quick note before we begin: from tonight, we recite Dua Qunut in Witr. The Shafi'i madhab holds that Qunut in Witr is only in the second half of Ramadan — following the practice established by Sayyidina Umar ibn al-Khattab when he unified the companions behind one imam for Taraweeh and instructed Sayyidina Ubay ibn Ka'ab to lead with Qunut in the final nights. May Allah enter us among those who pray with the imam from beginning to end, and receive the reward of a full night's prayer.The Battle of Badr — ApproachingThe Muslims left Madinah on the 12th of Ramadan. Tonight, in the timeline of history, they would have been settling into the plains of Badr — fasting, outnumbered, about to face something no one had fully planned for.The original aim was to intercept Abu Sufyan's caravan returning from Syria — laden with the wealth the Quraysh had confiscated from the Muslims at the time of Hijrah. Abu Sufyan's scouts, however, found camel droppings containing date pits from the farms of Madinah. He understood: the Muslims are tracking us. He rerouted the caravan and sent the fastest rider back to Makkah with a call for reinforcements — the rider even smeared camel blood on himself for dramatic effect, to ensure the message landed with urgency.Abu Jahl raised 1,300 men. By the time they reached the plains of Badr, the caravan had already escaped via a different route. Three hundred of the Quraysh army turned back — the property was safe, their reason for coming was gone. But Abu Jahl pressed forward with a thousand. This was no longer about a caravan. This was about crushing Islam once and for all.When the Prophet ﷺ chose a campsite on the plains of Badr, one of the companions asked: Ya Rasulullah, is this position based on revelation, or is this your personal judgement? The Prophet ﷺ said: personal judgement. The companion said: in that case, may I suggest we move further, to control the Quraysh's access to the wells?The Prophet ﷺ accepted. He moved the entire army.In that moment — a Prophet, the most beloved of creation, moving his troops based on a suggestion from a companion — is a masterclass in leadership. A good leader takes counsel. A good leader distinguishes between revelation and personal opinion. A good leader is not too proud to be corrected.We continue the story of Badr tomorrow insha'Allah.The Blame Game Has No EndReturning to Surah Al-A'raf — yesterday we saw the people of Jahannam blaming each other as they entered. The followers blamed the leaders. The leaders said: you chose to follow us. Taste what you earned.Now Allah introduces a further dimension: the former and the latter — early generations and those who came after.Think about what this means personally. If someone in your family tree was the first to introduce something harmful — idol worship, a corrupt practice, a tradition that led generations away from Allah — and their descendants followed without question, then when all of them meet in Jahannam, the descendants will turn to the ancestor: you started this. This is your fault. You deserve more.It is a sobering thought. The decisions we make do not end with us.The Reverse Is Also TrueBut the reverse is equally real — and this is where the heart lifts.A thousand years ago, the ancestors of many Muslims sitting in our community tonight were not Muslim. The Malays were Hindu and Buddhist. The Turks were sky-worshipping pagans on the steppe. The Indonesians had their own traditions. And then — somewhere up that family tree — one person made a decision. I am going to be a Muslim.Because of that one decision, generations of descendants were born into Islam. Every salah they prayed, every fast they kept, every act of charity they gave — a portion of that reward travels back up the chain to the one who made the original call.That ancestor has been in his grave for perhaps 700, 800 years. And he is still receiving dividends. Still collecting on that one decision. This is the real passive income. Not a pyramid scheme — a multi-level reward that compounds across generations until Yawmul Qiyamah.And in Jannah, insha'Allah, we will find that ancestor. We will say: thank you. Because of you, I did not have to make the hard choice. I was born Muslim. All I had to do was protect what you gave me.For those among us who did make that hard choice — who came to Islam as adults, who chose this path when no one around them did — your reward carries the same weight. Every person in your lineage who comes after you and remains on this deen is a continuation of your decision. Do not underestimate what you started.Do Not Trivialise Small Good DeedsThis is why we must never dismiss small acts of goodness as insignificant.Teach one child Quran. That child teaches his children. His children teach theirs. How many generations between now and Yawmul Qiyamah? Every one of them who recites the Quran — you carry a portion of that reward. A tiny portion, yes. But multiplied across centuries, across an entire family tree — it becomes something beyond calculation.Whatever good deed you start, its consequences ripple outward in ways you will never live to see. A Muslim thinks in generations, not just in lifetimes. The question is not only: what am I doing today? The question is: what am I starting?The Camel and the Eye of the NeedleFor those who reject the ayat of Allah, who are arrogant against His guidance — la tufattahu lahum abwab al-sama'. The gates of heaven will not be opened for them. Their good deeds will not ascend. The angels carry our deeds up twice daily — at Fajr and Maghrib, which is why these are the great times of morning and evening dhikr, when two shifts of angels overlap and the same act is recorded twice. But for the one who rejects Allah, those deeds remain earthbound. He gets what he intended — praise from people, a legacy among men — and nothing more.Hatim al-Ta'i was the most celebrated generous man in Arab history. His name became a byword for generosity — Arabs still use it today, 1,400 years later. His son asked the Prophet ﷺ about his father's fate. The Prophet ﷺ said: he never gave for Allah's sake. He gave to be known as generous. And Allah gave him exactly that. He is still being praised. His intention was fulfilled in full.You get what you intend for. If you intend for Allah, Allah rewards you. If you intend for people, people reward you. But the gates of heaven remain closed.And if a person who rejects the ayat of Allah still imagines they might enter Jannah — Allah gives us the measure of that hope: try fitting a camel through the eye of a needle first. In Arabic this is the expression for the impossible, the never-happening, the stop-dreaming. It will not happen. Not through arrogance. Not through denial. Not through rejecting the messenger.Tomorrow insha'Allah — the people of Jannah. The Quran always balances: after the warning comes the glad tidings.Following along with the series?

The significance of the First Hijrah cannot be overstated; the first place where Islam was openly practiced, and the first free Muslim community, was not in Arabia, but in Africa. We retrace the footsteps of faith across this remarkable journey.

Kita saat ini hidup dalam paradoks yang aneh: kita memiliki data ilmiah terlengkap tentang kerusakan planet, namun gaya hidup kita tetap terjebak dalam kelumpuhan yang disebut Melissa Lane sebagai "inersia imajinasi". Seperti penghuni gua dalam alegori Plato yang terpaku pada bayang-bayang di dinding, kita seringkali menganggap kenyamanan konsumerisme sebagai satu-satunya realitas, sementara krisis iklim yang nyata hanya dianggap sebagai berita lalu di layar ponsel. Mengeksplorasi konsep Eco-Republic adalah langkah pertama untuk memutus rantai inersia ini, mengajak kita keluar dari gua kenyamanan semu menuju cahaya kebenaran ekologis yang menuntut keberanian untuk berpikir secara berbeda. Inti dari penjelajahan ini terletak pada pembedahan terhadap Pleonexia—sebuah istilah Yunani kuno untuk nafsu serakah yang tidak pernah puas—yang kini telah menjadi bahan bakar utama ekonomi global. Melissa Lane menawarkan "kompas" filsafat kuno untuk membantu kita melakukan Carbon Detox secara mental, yakni sebuah proses reorientasi jiwa agar kita kembali mampu mencintai hal-hal yang tidak merusak bumi. Dengan mempelajari Eco-Republic, kita diajak untuk melihat bahwa keadilan bukan hanya soal hukum antarmanusia, melainkan harmoni antara keinginan, nalar, dan daya dukung alam, sehingga kita bisa mendefinisikan ulang apa itu "hidup yang baik" tanpa harus menghancurkan rumah kita sendiri. Pada akhirnya, memahami Eco-Republic bukan berarti kita diajak untuk kembali ke masa lalu yang primitif atau hidup dalam penderitaan, melainkan untuk melangkah maju menuju peradaban yang lebih cerdas dan beradab. Ini adalah undangan bagi setiap warga negara untuk bertransformasi dari sekadar "konsumen" menjadi "penjaga ekosistem" yang sadar akan tanggung jawab lintas generasi. Dengan menjelajahi gagasan ini, kita mulai membangun harapan bahwa keberlanjutan bukanlah sebuah pengorbanan yang berat, melainkan sebuah bentuk kebebasan sejati yang membebaskan kita dari perbudakan keinginan yang tak ada ujungnya, demi masa depan bumi yang lebih sejuk dan adil.

In this episode, we talk about what it's really like to start and grow a YouTube channel about Hijra and living around the world. We share the challenges, the surprises, and what we learned along the way. We also talk about how to be yourself online while still connecting with different kinds of people.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the Democratic Party deliberately ignores and rewrites immigration laws to import unassimilated illegal aliens from around the world. They use empty slogans on equality and affordability while destroying the nation. There are Somali immigrants in Minneapolis who cluster, have large families, fail to assimilate, and exploit the system.  America is at a point of no return unless all of this is reversed under President Trump.  The Democrat party and their media play a central role in violence against ICE. The Democrat governors and mayors, among others, using inflammatory rhetoric and yelling about resistance, not to mention several physically confronting ICE, have blood on their hands today.  They've created a militant environment against ICE agents, smearing them as stormtroopers and alike, and turning ICE agents into physical targets in one city after another. There has been a campaign of organized and systematic violence against ICE in city after city, and the Democrat Party officials almost always and universally use the most provocative slogans to attack ICE.  We don't have all the facts and we are looking at what videos are available, but we do know that you don't drive a vehicle at law enforcement -- literally within inches of at least one ICE official -- in a sudden burst when they are approaching the vehicle and talking to its driver.  Later, in late 2025, the Islamic Tampa Area Muslim Professional Association (iTAMPA) was launched at a Florida Islamic school as a physician-led initiative to create a Sharia-compliant parallel healthcare system within Tampa's growing Muslim Brotherhood enclave.  Tampa is positioned as a hub for Hijrah-driven migration, encouraging Muslims to relocate and build self-contained ecosystems encompassing schools, mosques, halal commerce, residential clustering, and healthcare to minimize dependence on non-Muslim systems. iTAMPA features a Muslim doctor directory, mentorship for generational succession, political engagement, and centralized Sharia governance via an Amir and shura council, aiming for fully independent Islamic communities replicable nationwide, as seen in models from Dallas, Chicago, and Detroit. Afterward, Salena Zito calls in to explain that real America exists offline. The left and some on the right mistakenly assume that opinions circulated and exploited on X represent the true mindset of election-deciding voters, which isn't true.

I called Muhammad's leaving Mecca for Medina the Hajj. I should have said the Hijrah. The Hajj is the pilgrimage to Mecca every able-bodied Muslim should endeavor to take at least once in his life. 1. The Common Era Is the Christian Era. 2. There Are Two Babylons. 2.1. The Temple and her Priests Are Babylon. 2.2. Rome and her Emperors Are Babylon. 3. When God Judges the Great Harlot, Heaven Shouts "Hallelujah!" 4.

We often think of strategy as something for business or the battlefield - but did you know it's actually part of our Deen?In this episode, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) discussed the Seerah to show how every move of the Prophet ﷺ was guided by intention, wisdom, and planning. From how he protected the early Muslims in Makkah to how Abu Bakr (RA) used his wealth with purpose, to why the Hijrah was strategy.You'll discover:Why having a plan is part of tawakkulHow the Prophet ﷺ used patience and preparation togetherPractical ways to bring strategy into your own life as a MuslimBy the end, you'll start to see “strategy” as a Sunnah that helps you live your faith with direction, clarity, and purpose.Get inside Art of Raising Muslims: https://www.raisingmuslims.com/art

Talha Ibn Ubaydullah رضي الله عنه (S9) Why did Nawfal target Abu Bakr and Talha? رضي الله عنهم. Zubayr's رضي الله عنه father, al-Awaam was the brother of Nawfal (thus the brother of Khadija رضي الله عنها also!). al-Awaam passed away early thus Nawfal was the caretaker of Zubayr رضي الله عنه. When Nawfal found out he embraced Islam he put Zubayr رضي الله عنه in a straw mat and placed fire underneath to choke him. Nawfal told him to leave Islam, Zubayr رضي الله عنه didn't budge, even though he was ~8 years old! Nawfal thus targeted Abu Bakr and Talha رضي الله عنهم as they were the ones who told Zubayr رضي الله عنه of Islam. Talha رضي الله عنه is returning from a business trip and runs into The Messenger ﷺ and Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه who were performing the Hijrah! Talha رضي الله عنه dresses them in Syrian garments and he himself goes to Makkah to sort things final. Talha رضي الله عنه performs Umrah when he returns to Makkah despite the dangerous circumstances in Makkah. Zayd Ibn al Haaritha, Abu Rafi, Abdullah Ibn Urayqidh رضي الله عنهم and some other men were chosen to bring The Messenger's ﷺ and Abu Bakr's family رضي الله عنهم to Madinah. Talha رضي الله عنه also aided them in this.

Komen 'Passive Agressive' Mengenai Hijrah ke Negara non Muslim Benarkah orang berhijrah kerana mengutamakan harta dan tidak mementingkan Akhirat?Apakah kefahaman yang betul mengenai hadis larangan Nabi ﷺ umat Islam tinggal bersama non Muslim?Luangkan masa empat minit anda mengikuti perbincangan ini.

Professor Abdullah Alkadi shares the remarkable story of Al-Qaswāʾ, the beloved she-camel of the Prophet Muhammad. ﷺ Faithfully accompanying the Prophet across the Hijaz, the western region of the Arabian Peninsula, Al-Qaswāʾ is mentioned numerous times in hadith literature, from the Hijrah to the Farewell Hajj. Joining Professor Alkadi for an engaging discussion is Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, President of Zaytuna College, California. Together, they will explore the Islamic emphasis on compassion, care, and the ethical treatment of animals, hallmarks of a faith grounded in mercy. Drawing on decades of research into the Hijrah Route, the Way of the Prophets, and the Farewell Hajj, Professor Alkadi observed a striking detail: alongside the Prophet and his Companions at key moments, Al-Qaswāʾ was also present. More than a means of transport, she was a silent witness to revelation, an emblem of loyalty and grace. This heartwarming account uncovers a story many have yet to hear, filled with well-sourced anecdotes that reflect the compassion and spiritual depth of Islam.

Don't Give Up: Hope in Bleak TimesBismillah.The past few weeks have been incredibly difficult for the Ummah — especially for our brothers and sisters in Gaza.And it's not just these few weeks. It's been 23 months. Almost two years of relentless destruction. Every time we think we've seen the worst, we're proven wrong. Every time we think we've hit rock bottom, Israel and the powers that support her prove that evil has no limit.We are now witnessing full-blown famine. Starvation. Infants with nothing between their skin and bones. And on top of that — we hear of America burning 500 tonnes of food rather than allowing it to reach Palestine.At times like this, it's tempting to throw in the towel. To say:“We've done everything we can.”“We've shouted, we've protested, we've boycotted, we've flooded social media.”And yet, the powers that be… remain.But when that sense of despair starts creeping in, we must pause. We must take a step back and remember:We are looking through the lens of our short lives.We live 60, 70 years — maybe 50 as adults — and from that narrow perspective, it feels like there's no hope. But history tells a different story. When we zoom out, we see a sunnah of Allah unfold:Evil never wins in the end.No matter how powerful. Fir'aun claimed he was God Most High — Allah destroyed him. Yet many lived and died under his tyranny and may have thought:“Where is Allah's help?”“Where is our du‘a?”Allah addresses this feeling directly in the Qur'an — in the verse I opened with. He speaks of previous nations, believers who were so shaken by hardship that even their Prophets asked, “When will the help of Allah come?”And Allah replies:“Indeed, the help of Allah is near.”But near from whose perspective? Not always ours.That's why in Surah Ibrahim, Allah reminds us:“Do not think that Allah is unaware of the actions of the oppressors. He is merely delaying them for a Day when eyes will stare in horror.”We are people of hope. We do not despair when times get tough. And in this brief khutbah, I want to share three points in history to remind us: we carry the torch of hope.1. The Trench in the Cold of MedinaYear 5 after Hijrah.The Battle of the Trench.After the losses at Uhud, Quraysh saw an opportunity to wipe out Islam. They gathered the largest army Arabia had ever seen: 10,000 strong. They were backed by Banu Ghatafan from the north, and allied with Jews from Khaybar, including Banu Qurayzah from within Medina.Rasulullah ﷺ had only 3,000 companions to defend the city. It was winter. The Sahaba were hungry, cold, and exhausted. Salman al-Farisi suggested digging a trench — a Persian military tactic. And they did. Day and night. Starving, shivering, digging non-stop.Then they hit a boulder they couldn't break. They called the Prophet ﷺ. He struck it once — a spark flew.“Allahu Akbar!” he cried.A second strike — another spark.“Allahu Akbar!”Third strike — the boulder shattered.“Allahu Akbar!”The companions asked: What was the takbir about?Rasulullah ﷺ said:* With the first spark, I saw Persia falling to the Muslims.* With the second, Rome.* With the third, Yemen.In the darkest moment, he gave them light. He gave them vision.He didn't just say “Have hope.”He gave them reasons to hope.And history proved him right. Islam triumphed. Not through numbers, but through divine help — a storm that forced the enemy to retreat. A month-long siege broken without a single full-scale battle.2. The Fall of Baghdad (1258 CE)Hulagu Khan — grandson of Genghis Khan — invaded Baghdad.Within days, 800,000 were slaughtered.Libraries burned. Books tossed into the Tigris until the river ran black with ink.Muslim writers thought it was the end of time.Non-Muslim historians wrote:“This is the day Islam died.”But Islam didn't die.Baghdad fell, but Cairo rose. So did Damascus. The Delhi Sultanate grew. And from these ashes, the Ottomans would eventually rise.Even Hulagu's cousin, Berke Khan, accepted Islam.Within a generation, the very dynasty that destroyed Baghdad became a Muslim dynasty.And amidst all of this — scholars kept working.* Imam al-Nawawi, who focused on preserving and teaching knowledge.* Ibn Taymiyyah, the scholar-warrior.* Ibn Ata'illah, who focused on tazkiyah and purifying hearts.* Al-‘Izz ibn ‘Abd al-Salam, who spoke truth to power and engaged with the rulers .Despite the devastation, they didn't stop. They carried on.3. The Fall of Apartheid (1994)From 1948 — the same year Israel was created — South Africa began enforcing apartheid. For decades, the people resisted: boycotts, protests, global pressure.In 1994, apartheid fell.The same Nelson Mandela who was once branded a terrorist by the West was now hailed as a hero — by the very same powers that had supported the apartheid regime.Let that sink in.The same powers that supported apartheid in South Africa are the ones supporting apartheid in Palestine today.And just like before — they can be defeated.Social Media: Double-Edged SwordToday, we have a powerful tool: social media. It's helped shift global opinion. It's brought awareness.But it's also draining us.We doomscroll.We see starvation, death, suffering — again and again.Two things happen:* We either fall into despair…* Or we become numb.We start thinking this is normal.So yes — use social media, but set a limit. 15 minutes. Half an hour. Post, share, amplify — and then get back to work. Real work.Know Your Role, Play Your PartNot all resistance looks the same.Imam al-Nawawi didn't fight with swords. He wrote books that still strengthen the Ummah today.Ibn Taymiyyah led at the frontlines.Ibn Ata'illah focused on hearts.Al-‘Izz ibn ‘Abd al-Salam engaged with the rulers.Some of us are better behind the scenes. Some are activists, some are scholars, some are thinkers, some are organisers. Some are better on the mic, others behind a pen.Don't judge someone's contribution just because it's not the same as yours. We need all hands on deck.“Allah will not ask you about what you couldn't do — but He will ask what you did with what you could.”May Allah give victory to the oppressed.May He feed the hungry, clothe the exposed, and strengthen the weak.May He unite our ranks and guide our efforts.May He grant us clarity, discipline, and sincere hearts in service of this Ummah.

ஹிஜ்ரத் ஓர் உணர்மிகு பயணம்மவ்லவி ரஹ்மத்துல்லாஹ் ஃபிர்தவ்ஸி | Rahmatullah Firdousi04-07-2025, Jumma

Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.Rasulullah ﷺ began looking for a new base for Islam because of the intense persecution Muslims faced in Makkah. In the 10th year of prophethood, his uncle Abu Talib — the leader of Banu Hashim, the Prophet's tribe — passed away. At that time, Makkah had no judicial system: your safety depended entirely on your tribal protection. As long as your tribe protected you, no one would harm you because your tribe could avenge any harm done.When Abu Talib passed away, leadership of Banu Hashim went to Abu Lahab, who refused to protect the Prophet ﷺ. With no protection, the Prophet's life was in danger. He went to Ta'if, hoping for refuge, but the people of Ta'if rejected him. He returned to Makkah with nowhere to turn, rejected by the people on earth.So, in the 11th year of prophethood, he adopted a new strategy: during Hajj, he would go to Mina, where tribes from all over Arabia camped in tents for three or four nights. He approached them one by one, seeking a tribe that would accept Islam and provide protection.First, he approached Banu Kindah — a once-powerful tribe that had lost its influence. The Prophet saw an opportunity for Kindah to regain prominence through Islam. Kindah, however, saw it only as a political opportunity: they told the Prophet they'd support him if leadership would pass to them after his death. The Prophet ﷺ refused, saying power belongs to Allah, who grants it to whomever He wills.He then approached Banu Shaiban ibn Tha'labah. Sayyidina Abu Bakr described them as the most virtuous and intelligent tribe in Arabia. The Prophet invited them to Islam and to become a new base for Muslims. But Banu Shaiban were bound by treaties with Rome and Persia, which they feared breaking if they supported the Prophet. They asked him to give them more time. The Prophet left, having been rejected again.On his way out, he met six men — not from a large or powerful tribe, but from the Khazraj. When the Prophet asked, “Who are you?” they replied, “We are Khazraj.” The Prophet ﷺ confirmed, “Khazraj living among the Jews?” They answered yes. Unlike the powerful tribes, these six men listened attentively to the Prophet's message. They didn't accept Islam immediately but were intrigued, promising to meet him the following year.They returned to Yathrib (Medina's old name) and shared the Prophet's message with their families. The next year, 12 people from Yathrib came to pledge allegiance to the Prophet ﷺ and accepted Islam. They asked the Prophet to send a teacher, and he sent Sayyidina Mus'ab ibn Umair, who led the first da'wah mission in Yathrib.The following year, in the 13th year of prophethood, 75 people from Yathrib came to pledge allegiance to the Prophet ﷺ — most from Khazraj, some from Aus. During the pledge, someone among them said: “How can we live safely in Medina while our Prophet remains oppressed in Makkah?” They invited the Prophet ﷺ to migrate. And the rest, as we say, is history: the Prophet ﷺ began encouraging companions to migrate, and eventually, Allah granted him permission to migrate himself.My dear brothers, this story teaches us powerful lessons:First, never underestimate small numbers. When building community strength, it's logical to seek powerful allies — and we should. But never forget the power of quality over quantity. The Prophet approached the mighty Kindah and wise Shaiban but didn't dismiss the small group of six sincere Khazraj. As we build our community, don't neglect people who may not seem influential today but are sincere seekers of truth.Second, community building requires cohesive teamwork across all segments of society. During the hijrah, the Prophet ﷺ worked with:* Sayyidina Abu Bakr, representing the elders.* Youth like Abdullah ibn Abu Bakr, who delivered food.* Sayyidatuna Asma bint Abu Bakr, a young woman who gathered intelligence.* Sayyidina Ali, a young man who risked his life sleeping in the Prophet's bed.* Abdullah ibn Urayqid, a skilled non-Muslim guide who honored his trust with the Prophet.The hijrah shows that everyone — elders, youth, men, women, Muslims, and even trustworthy non-Muslims — can contribute meaningfully to a cause. We cannot afford divisions: elders must not hoard power, and youth should not sit on the sidelines criticising. Both must collaborate.Third, when the Prophet ﷺ reached Medina, the first thing he built wasn't his own house — it was a masjid. After the masjid, he demarcated an area for a market. These two pillars — spiritual strength and economic strength — must go hand in hand.Our masajid should be open, welcoming, and function as community hubs. They should host worship, education, and community activities. But we must also build our economic strength: as a minority community, politicians won't listen to us because of our numbers, so we need economic power. This requires pooling our diverse talents — from money to skills — to establish projects that empower our community.In summary, here are the three key lessons from the hijrah:* Never underestimate the potential of small, sincere groups — success doesn't rely solely on numbers.* Build cohesive communities by involving people of all backgrounds, ages, genders, and talents.* Prioritise both spiritual and economic strength; they are inseparable for a thriving community.أقول قولي هذا وأستغفر الله لي ولكم.

Welcome back to Road to Hajj — where we explore the rituals of Hajj, their meanings, and the mysteries behind them.Tonight, though, we're going to take a step back from the rituals themselves. Instead, we're diving into an incredible historical moment — one that didn't just shape the Hajj… it changed the course of Islamic history forever.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.This moment happened on the last night of Hajj, 1,447 years ago.It was the spark that led to the Hijrah — the Prophet's migration to Madinah. And as we know, the Hijrah wasn't just a journey; it was the turning point. So important, in fact, that the Companions later decided to mark it as year one in the Islamic calendar.To really appreciate what happened that night, we need to rewind the story a bit — back two years before the Hijrah.Rewinding to the Nights of MinaAs you may know, during Hajj, the pilgrims spend the 11th, 12th, and 13th nights of Dhul-Hijjah in Mina. Even today, that practice continues.But let's go back to the 11th year of Prophethood, a couple of years before Islam had a home in Madinah.Every year during Hajj, tribes from across Arabia would travel to Mecca. And every year, the Prophet ﷺ would walk among them, calling people to Islam.But that year, something was different.The Prophet wasn't just doing da'wah — he was also searching for a tribe that would adopt and protect him. Why? Because just a year earlier, in the 10th year of Prophethood, the Prophet ﷺ had lost his greatest worldly protector — his uncle Abu Talib.Abu Talib, the chief of Banu Hashim, had shielded the Prophet from the worst of Quraysh's violence. While others like Bilal, Sumayyah, and Abdullah ibn Mas'ud were tortured — often brutally — the Prophet was relatively protected due to Abu Talib's status.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.But when Abu Talib passed away, his successor was Abu Lahab — a man who refused to support or protect Rasulullah ﷺ.With no protection left in Mecca, the Prophet ﷺ went to Ta'if, hoping its people might offer refuge. But they rejected him and humiliated him.Eventually, he returned to Mecca under the protection of Mut'im ibn ‘Adi, a nobleman from another tribe. It was only temporary — the Prophet knew he couldn't count on Mut'im forever.So he started reaching out to other tribes.He approached Banu Kindah, a once-powerful tribe. They were interested… but they wanted power. They asked, “If we support you, will we be rulers after you?” The Prophet ﷺ replied, “That's not for me to promise — that is for Allah to decide.”Their intentions weren't sincere, so he moved on.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.A Small Encounter with Big ConsequencesAnd then — walking through Mina — the Prophet ﷺ noticed a small group: just six young men.He asked them, “Who are you?”They replied, “We are the Khazraj.”The Prophet asked, “The same Khazraj who live near the Jews in Yathrib?”They said, “Yes, we are from Yathrib.”That caught the Prophet's attention.You see, the people of Yathrib had lived alongside the Jews for generations. They were familiar with the concept of prophethood, scripture, and divine revelation. And, at that time, Yathrib was suffering from ongoing tribal conflictbetween two Arab tribes — the Aus and the Khazraj. Many of their elders had been killed. The city was fractured, desperate for unity.The Prophet ﷺ spoke to them about Islam — with the same sincerity and passion he had shown the big tribes.And something clicked.They didn't pledge allegiance that year, but they said:“Let us return to our people and speak to them. If it's good, we'll come back to you next year.”Year 12 of Prophethood: Bay‘at al-‘Aqabah (1)The next year, 12 people came back — most from Khazraj, some from Aus. They met the Prophet at night during the days of Mina and pledged allegiance.This was the first Bay‘at al-‘Aqabah — named after the valley near Jamrat al-‘Aqabah, where the meeting took place. Today, that area has changed, but back then it was where the Hajj tents stood.This first pledge was spiritual — they promised:* Not to associate partners with Allah* Not to steal or commit zina* Not to kill* To obey the Prophet in goodnessAfter that, they requested the Prophet ﷺ to send someone back with them to teach them Islam.The Prophet chose Mus‘ab ibn ‘Umayr — a young, eloquent, wise man from Mecca. Mus‘ab went to Yathrib and taught, preached, built the foundation for what was to come.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Year 13: Bay‘at al-‘Aqabah (2)A year later, they came again — this time, with 75 people.It was the 13th of Dhul-Hijjah, 13 years after revelation began.They came by night, secretly, when all the other pilgrims were asleep. This time, they didn't just want to learn Islam. They invited the Prophet ﷺ to migrate to their city, to Yathrib.They said:“It is unfair for us to be living in peace while our Prophet is being persecuted. Join us. Let us protect you.”The Prophet ﷺ said:“If I migrate to you, this pledge must not be just religious. It must also be political. You must defend me like you defend your own families.”One of them asked:“When Islam succeeds, will you leave us and return to Mecca?”The Prophet ﷺ replied:“Your blood is my blood. Your destruction is my destruction. We are one.”And one by one, all 75 pledged their allegiance. Then they all heard a loud scream from the middle of the desert.Rasulullah ﷺ said:“That scream you just heard — that was the scream of Iblis. He is furious that Islam has found a way out of Mecca.”The Road OpensFrom that point, the Prophet ﷺ began advising Muslims to migrate, one group at a time. Quietly, Muslims left Mecca and made their way to Yathrib.Eventually, the Prophet ﷺ himself made hijrah. He left Mecca a few months later, in Rabi‘ al-Awwal, and arrived in Yathrib — soon to be renamed al-Madinah al-Munawwarah.This moment changed everything.Islam went from being an oppressed minority to a rising force of justice — spreading across Arabia, and soon, to much of the world.That night — the 13th of Dhul-Hijjah, 1,447 years ago — in the small valley of Mina, the road to hijrah began.It wasn't part of the Hajj rituals —But it was written into the destiny of this Ummah.That's all for tonight's episode of Road to Hajj.Thanks for reading BeQuranic!

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhAlhamdulillah, welcome to Be Quranic.This is the blessed month of Ramadan—Ramadan Mubarak to everyone! May Allah bless us in this month with a fasting full of Iman and sincerity, leading to taqwa and forgiveness from Him.The Be Quranic Taraweeh ApproachEach Ramadan, I choose one surah as my pet surah to study and recite throughout the month in Taraweeh.I lead Taraweeh with the Qaswa community here in Perth, and our approach may differ slightly from other places.We select one surah and deeply study it throughout the month. Each night before Taraweeh, we have a short tafsir session, and the ayat covered in tafsir are then recited in salah. This means we repeat the same ayat for several nights—allowing us to develop a deeper connection with the Qur'an.This method helps us internalise the surah and absorb its meanings so that when we hear the recitation in prayer, it resonates more deeply with us.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.A Journey Through Past RamadansWe started this approach in 2019 with Surah Al-Baqarah.In 2020, due to COVID restrictions, we opted for Surah Al-Kahf, keeping things shorter and simpler.By 2021, restrictions were still fluctuating, so we went through Juz Amma, studying and repeating it in our Taraweeh prayers.Then, in 2022, as things returned to normal, we resumed our original format with Surah Ali 'Imran, followed by Surah An-Nisa in 2023, and Surah Al-Ma'idah in 2024.This year, 2025, our chosen surah is Surah Al-An'am.The Purpose of This ApproachThis is not just an intellectual tafsir—it is a practical approach. We extract real-life lessons from the surah, which we can turn into action points for the next 11 months.Each Ramadan, we add a new checklist of Qur'anic principles to live by, so that over the years, we gradually build our character through the Qur'an.This way, we don't just read or listen to the Qur'an—we live by it.Introduction to Makki SurahsWhat Makes a Surah Makki?The division of Makki and Madani Surahs is not based on geography—it is based on time.• Makki Surahs were revealed before Hijrah when the Prophet ﷺ was based in Makkah.• Madani Surahs were revealed after Hijrah, even if they were revealed outside of Madinah.For example:• Surah An-Nasr (إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَالْفَتْحُ) was revealed in Makkah but is still a Madani Surah because it was revealed after the migration.• Surah Al-Fath (إِنَّا فَتَحْنَا لَكَ فَتْحًا مُّبِينًا) was revealed near Hudaybiyyah, closer to Makkah than Madinah, yet it's a Madani Surah.So, the division is based on period, not place.BeQuranic is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.What Makes Makki Surahs Unique?The 13 years in Makkah were the toughest years for the early Muslims. They were a minority, oppressed, and struggling against an overwhelming opposition.During this time, there were no major laws—no fasting, no zakah, no hijab. Even the five daily prayers were only fully established towards the end of the Makkan period.So, what was the focus of Makki Surahs?

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.Welcome to BeQuranic!Today is Tuesday, the 26th of Shaaban, 1446 Hijrah—which means Ramadan is just a few days away! SubhanAllah, we are so close to the blessed month, the month of the Qur'an.And since it's Tajweed Tuesday, let's make the most of these last few days by working on beautifying our Qur'anic recitation. After all, what better way to prepare for Ramadan than by improving the way we connect with the words of Allah?Before we dive into today's lesson, let's do a quick recap of what we've covered so far.Over the past few weeks, we've explored:✅ The meaning of Tajweed – which is all about enhancing our recitation by following the rules of pronunciation, knowing how letters interact with each other, and understanding when to stop and when to continue.✅ Major and minor mistakes in Tajweed – Some mistakes, like switching letters or changing vowels, can actually alter the meaning of the ayah, and we absolutely need to avoid them. Other mistakes, like slight mispronunciations, don't change the meaning, but they still affect the beauty of our recitation.✅ Mad Asli (the foundational elongation) – Remember the golden rule? “Nuhiha” – three letters:• Alif after a Fathah• Waw after a Dhammah• Ya after a KasrahAnd we hold them for two harakat. Simple, right? But crucial, because missing it completely changes the meaning. Like how:

How did a group of desert tribes, divided for centuries, manage to build one of the largest empires in history in just a few decades? What were the origins of Islam? And what made the Arab conquests so transformative? In episode 21, I give an overview of the first century of Islamic history, leading up to the Muslim conquest of the Iberian Peninsula.

Hijrah adalah perjalanan spiritual menuju kebaikan yang mencakup perubahan dalam tindakan, pikiran, dan niat. Jangan biarkan hinaan dan kritik dari orang lain melemahkan semangat hijrahmu, karena hijrah adalah bentuk ibadah yang sangat diridhai oleh Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. Dalam Al-Quran, Allah berfirman, "Dan orang-orang yang berhijrah karena Allah sesudah mereka dianiaya, pasti Kami akan memberikan tempat yang bagus kepada mereka di dunia. Dan sesungguhnya pahala di akhirat adalah lebih besar, jika mereka mengetahui" (QS. An-Nahl: 41). Rasulullah Muhammad Shallallahu alaihi wa sallam juga mengingatkan kita bahwa niat yang tulus akan mendapatkan ganjaran yang sesuai, "Sesungguhnya segala amal perbuatan tergantung niatnya, dan setiap orang akan mendapatkan sesuai dengan apa yang diniatkannya" (HR. Bukhari dan Muslim). Jadi, jalan terus dengan niat baikmu untuk hijrah, dan percayalah bahwa Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala senantiasa mendukung dan memberi pahala kepada mereka yang terus berusaha demi kebaikan.

When the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ left the city of Makkah to perform Hijrah with Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه, a series of events unfolded. The Quraysh were at their heels, and a bounty was placed on the Prophet's ﷺ head. To avoid capture, he ﷺ took an unconventional route to Madinah. However, one man managed to track them down along the way. In this episode of the Seerah of the Prophet ﷺ, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan discusses how the Prophet ﷺ planned his migration from Makkah to Madinah. He explores the vital role of Abu Bakr and his family in aiding the migration, recounts the story of the Cave of Thawr, emphasises the importance of taking precautions, and delves into the issue of loving one's homeland.
