Podcasts about praiseworthy

The Messenger ﷺ used to prefer silent Zhikr which could not be heard even by the guardian (Angels [as]), as being 70 times superior (ie to the loud Zhikr). Any servant who lays his head down on his bed and remembers Allah (SWT) Most High will then be written as remembering (ie Allah [SWT]) until he awakes - whenever he awakens (Ibn Al Mubarak). "O Allah (SWT), exalt Muhammad ﷺ, Your servant and Messenger ﷺ and exalt the Believers, men and women - and the Muslims, men and women (Ibn Hibaan). Much Zhikrullaah and Salaatun Nabee ﷺ banishes poverty ( Ithaaf). Send Salaah upon me ﷺ, for this is a Zakaah for you (Ahmad). Whoever desires to be given a full reward when invoking Blessings upon my household should recite, O Allah (SWT), exalt Muhammad ﷺ the Prophet, his Wives the Mothers of the Believers, his offspring and the people of his Household - as You exalted Ibraaheem (A.S.) -truly You are the Praiseworthy, Majestic (Abo Dawood). Whoever likes this that Allah SWT is pleased with him when he is presented in the Court of Allah SWT should then recite Salaah upon me ﷺ in abundance (Musnad). Undoubtedly, the one amongst you to gain the quickest relief on the Day of Judgement from its horrors and the reckoning will be the one who recited Salaah upon me ﷺ in abundance (Musnad). 'Recite Salaah upon me ﷺ (then) Allah (SWT) will send mercy upon you (Ibn Adee). Adorn your assemblies with invoking Blessings upon the Prophet ﷺ (Ibn Assakir).

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Length: 1 hour 43 minutesSynopsis: Last night (4/4/25), in our Thursday night women's shiur, we explored a question posed to me by two of my students (shout out to Moshe and Shmarya) about a song found at the end of most Haggadot: “Is there an inherent problem with saying Adir Hu?” The concern is that, on the surface, Adir Hu seems to exemplify the type of excessive adjectival praise condemned by R' Chanina in Berachos 33b. Our session was more of a “Machshavah Lab”-style exploration than a formal shiur: we learned the Gemara, raised a bunch of questions, and then turned to the poskim—with the Rambam leading the minority view, opposed in various ways by the Tur, Beis Yosef, and Shulchan Aruch. We also looked at the Rambam's stricter formulation in the Moreh ha'Nevuchim, noting what seem like major inconsistencies in his position. We concluded with a summary of why, according to everyone except the Rambam in the Moreh, it's halachically permissible to sing Adir Hu. It was a fun adventure that left us with plenty of juicy questions and problems to think about over Pesach and beyond!-----מקורות:אדיר הואברכות דף לג עמוד ברמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר אהבה, הלכות תפילה וברכת כהנים ט:ז; א:א-דטור אורח חיים קיג:טבית יוסף שםשולחן ערוך שםרמב"ם - מורה הנבוכים א:נטרמב"ם - משנה תורה: ספר אהבה, הלכות ברכות י:כד-----The Torah content from now until Erev Pesach has been sponsored by Yehudis Korn l'zecher nishmas Moshe ben Yeshayahu Yehuda.-----If you've gained from what you've learned here, please consider contributing to my Patreon at www.patreon.com/rabbischneeweiss.

This special 30-part series delves into the divine attributes of God Almighty, exploring their significance and relevance in our lives. Through these discussions, we seek to answer fundamental questions: Who is our God? How can we recognize Him? And how do we strengthen our connection with Him through an understanding of His attributes? In today's episode, we focus on the attribute Al-Hamid (The Praiseworthy). With the insights of an esteemed guest, we will explore the depth of this characteristic, its impact on our spiritual journey, and its manifestation in our daily lives.

Praiseworthy Endurance Amidst Persecution

Introduction 1. A Heart-stirring Theme (v1-5). - How many reasons can you think of to praise the LORD? 2. The Praiseworthy LORD (v6-19). a) Righteous Deliverer and Mighty King (v6.19). b) Revelation (v7-9). c) Mercy (v9-12). d) Grace (v13-14). e) Eternal Life (v15-18). 3. An Open Invitation (v20-22). Conclusion - We are so prone to forget what God has done for us, that the practice of remembering God's mercies is a very helpful exercise. - ‘Forget not all his benefits' – so that your heart may be enlarged in love and thankfulness to the LORD

Praiseworthy ends with some praise, a bit of exhaustion, questions about satire and the ending, and a dirty phrase Chad can't quit competing.

Now it's up to you to choose which class "wins." Fill out this survey and we'll analyze the results in June when we return for Season 23, Lanark by Alasdair Gray.

#Jesus #JesusChrist #Bible #Moses #praiseworthylife #biblestudycompany #10commandments #tencommandments #Beatitudes Exodus 20 and the 10 commandments are nearly identical in how they start. We know Jesus our Lord was the same God on MT Sinai as on MT Beatitudes. However, the "thou shalt nots" were to create a knowledge that we, as sinners, could never keep the commandments of God without His help. We needed a fundamental change in us that required a new becoming born again unto God. We became NEW CREATURES IN CHRIST as God put the Holy Spirit within us! Join us for this men's study, but anyone will enjoy it.

From discussion of Ohio and disturbing news about everyone's favorite Australian export, this episode skirts talking too deeply about Alexis Wright's Praiseworthy  (New Directions, And Other Stories, Giramondo) to discuss challenges of getting into particular books, what the purpose of this podcast is in trying to assist in that and get whatever it is we get out of finishing something we might otherwise give up on. (We're not giving up on this book! Just a meta-commentary.) Also: The University of Rochester's wifi was all screwed up during the recording.

From discussion of Ohio and disturbing news about everyone's favorite Australian export, this episode skirts talking too deeply about Alexis Wright's Praiseworthy  (New Directions, And Other Stories, Giramondo) to discuss challenges of getting into particular books, what the purpose of this podcast is in trying to assist in that and get whatever it is we get out of finishing something we might otherwise give up on. (We're not giving up on this book! Just a meta-commentary.)  Also: The University of Rochester's wifi was all screwed up during the recording. Most of the big gaps have been erased, but it is a bit choppy at the start, for which we apologize. This week's music is "If Not Now, Then When?" by Australia's own King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard.

We've reached the end which, in Chad and Brian's opinion, Ed Park totally lands. There's Friday the 13th talk. Reagan makes an appearance. The structure of the book is revisited. As are all the ideas of mirrors and patrimony, assassins and conspiracy theories.
