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)

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.

Muazh Ibn Jabal رضي الله عنه (S52) The Plague of Amwaas, 18 A.H: around 30,000 Muslims were martyred by this plague, including many Companions رضي الله عنهم. It occurred around half way through Umar's رضي الله عنه Khilafat. The Messenger ﷺ tells Muazh رضي الله عنه about the plague and that he will migrate to Shaam… When Muazh رضي الله عنه was affected by the plague, he said it was more beloved to him than being given red camels. He made dua his entire family be given a share of the plague - they all were martyred by it. Plagues used to be a punishment, but for this Ummah it is a mercy. It grants one martyrdom, however you must be patient, not flee, expect reward and know it is the degree of Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وتَعَالَى. Muazh رضي الله عنه: “The plague is martyrdom. It is a mercy. It is a dua of The Messenger ﷺ”.

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)

Muazh Ibn Jabal رضي الله عنه (S36) In 10 A.H, the chiefs of Yemen had embraced Islam and asked The Messenger ﷺ to send some teachers. He (ﷺ) sent Abu Musa al-Ashari first, then Muazh Ibn Jabal رضي الله عنهم. The Messenger ﷺ is a witness to his Ummah, a bearer of glad tidings of Paradise, a Warner of the Hellfire and a caller, to the Oneness of Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وتَعَالَى. (Surah [33:45-46]). The Messenger ﷺ in a letter stated: “I have sent to you one of the best of my Companions. He will take charge of your knowledge and religion”.

Muazh Ibn Jabal رضي الله عنه (S34) Muazh رضي الله عنه defended Ka'ab Ibn Malik رضي الله عنه when the latter was absent at Tabook. (Ka'ab رضي الله عنه was a giant - one of those who pledged at Aqabah and was paired with Talha رضي الله عنه). The Messenger ﷺ: “Whoever defends his brother in his absence, Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وتَعَالَى will defend him in this life and the next”. Your face is also protected from the fire. Muazh رضي الله عنه once again showing he is a walking Qur'an. Qais Ibn Matatiah is racist towards Salman, Bilal and Suhayb رضي الله عنهم - these 3 titans were non-Arabs. Muazh رضي الله عنه grabs Qais by the collar and takes him to The Messenger ﷺ who was furious upon hearing this. Time and time again, The Messenger ﷺ tells us we are one Ummah. Races, borders, countries are all man made to divide us. Truly, whoever is racist is following the path of Shaytaan and Abu Jahl! Indeed, what a disgraceful path to follow…

Imam ‘Ali Al-Ridha (a) is remembered on the day of his shahadat, a day of great loss for the Ummah.His life and teachings revolved around explaining the truth and necessity of Imamate.Imamate is not a worldly leadership but a divine position, granted only by Allah, similar to Prophethood.Just as Prophets are chosen by Allah and not by the people, the Imams are divinely appointed guides.Imamate is the continuation of the mission of the Prophets, ensuring that the religion of Islam remains preserved after the Prophet (s).Without Imamate, the religion remains incomplete and guidance becomes lost.Imam Al-Ridha (a) described the Imam as the protector of the Ummah, safeguarding them from misguidance.The Imam carries the responsibility of preserving and explaining the Qur'an and Sunnah in their pure form.The Imam is the living proof (hujjah) of Allah on earth, guiding people towards truth and away from error.In his debates and gatherings, Imam Al-Ridha (a) used Qur'anic verses and Prophetic hadith to establish the legitimacy of Imamate.He emphasized that the Imam is like the Ark of Nuh — whoever boards is saved, and whoever turns away is drowned.The Imam is also the shining lamp of guidance, leading believers through the darkness of ignorance and falsehood.Imam Al-Ridha (a) taught that the Imam is a mercy and blessing from Allah, sent for the protection of the Ummah.His life was marked by knowledge, patience, and sacrifice, even under the oppressive rule of the Abbasids.The shahadat of Imam Al-Ridha (a) was a tragedy for the Muslim Ummah, as it was the loss of a divine guide and leader.Remembering his life reminds us of his dedication to truth, his defense of Islam, and his role as the safeguard of faith.Donate towards our programs today: https://jaffari.org/donate/Jaffari Community Centre (JCC Live)

What does it mean when Muslims celebrate borders drawn by colonial hands—while the blood of their brothers spills across the globe? Let's confront the dangerous lie of national pride, the myth of “independence,” and the silence of rulers who serve their masters. The flags are many—but the truth is singular.

Full transcript (AI generated)Alhamdulillah, we praise Allah for allowing us to gather on this beautiful—if a little chilly—morning. Alhamdulillah for this amazing weather.It was lovely to see the president of the Islamic society in red and white today. To our Indonesian brothers and sisters: Selamat Hari Kemerdekaan—Happy Independence Day. Eighty years since independence—may Allah keep your nation in peace and strength.If anyone needs proof that Islam was not spread by the sword, just look at our region. You don't find armies forcing Islam upon the people there. Rather, traders—many from Hadramawt in Yemen—came to the Indonesian archipelago. The Indonesians were impressed by their honesty and akhlaq. The sultans and rulers accepted Islam, and as was common then, when a king accepted a faith, much of his people followed.Some argue, “But what about the Indian subcontinent—Pakistan and India—didn't Islam spread there by northern armies?” Even there, the heart of Islam's spread was da‘wah and reason, not compulsion.Look at Syria and Egypt. Egypt was opened by ‘Amr ibn al-‘Ās in the time of ‘Umar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb. Syria and Damascus were opened by Khālid ibn al-Walīd. Muslims ruled those lands, yet it took 500 years before Syria became majority Muslim, and around 300 years for Egypt. If Islam were spread by force, everyone would have “converted” within decades. History shows otherwise.Consider also the monastery of St Catherine in Sinai. It predates Islam, and they proudly claim to hold a letter from the Prophet ﷺ guaranteeing the safety of Christians in Egypt. Whether or not you accept the document, the point stands: Islam lived alongside other faiths. In greater Bilād al-Shām—what we call the Levant—multiple religions have long flourished.A stable nation is a great blessing from Allah. One of the early scholars said: I make du‘ā' for our rulers, that Allah rectifies their affairs. When asked, “Why not just make du‘ā' for yourself?” he replied, “If I pray for myself, only I benefit. If I pray for the ruler, everyone benefits.” Even if a ruler is flawed, there is no harm in asking Allah to guide them and make them just—because a just leader benefits all.When we talk about nation-states, let's be honest: many borders are colonial lines. What separates Malaysia and Indonesia? We are one people in so many ways. We speak closely related languages. Historically, the region has been called by many names: the Malay world, the archipelago, even Jāwī—so scholars from our lands were known in the Arab world as “al-Jāwī,” whether they were Javanese, Malay, Bugis, Makassarese, or others. The difference between Malaysia and Indonesia today largely traces to the Dutch and the British.So how do we relate to nation-states? Two extremes exist. One says, “There is no nation—only the Ummah—restore the Khilāfah now.” The other says, “I will die for this colonial line.” The truth, as our scholars remind us, is the balanced middle path. We are one Ummah of Muhammad ﷺ, and we also live in nation-states. Attempts to tear down states overnight have, in recent history, brought much harm. We live within reality while never forgetting the greater reality: every Muslim we meet is our brother or sister in faith, and that bond is sacred.The Prophet ﷺ himself showed us how to balance love of homeland. He loved Makkah—his birthplace, the land of his ancestors, home of the Ka‘bah built by Ibrāhīm and Ismā‘īl. He left only because it became unsafe—he was forced out. On his way out he turned back and said, “O Makkah, had my people not expelled me, I would never have left you.” But when he migrated to Madīnah, he loved it too, and made du‘ā': “O Allah, make us love Madīnah as we love Makkah, or even more,” and, “O Allah, bless Madīnah twice what You blessed Makkah.”He became part of Madīnah's community—integrating Muhājirīn and Anṣār, building a strong society—while his heart still loved Makkah. That's balance.Many of us here were born elsewhere—Malaysia, Indonesia, Lebanon, and beyond—and migrated to Australia. Love your country of origin; that's natural and from the sunnah of fitrah. But also accept the reality: we live here now by choice. So contribute here. Build here. Strengthen community here. Loving Australia doesn't mean hating your country of origin, and loving your homeland doesn't mean ignoring the reality and responsibilities of this country that has given us so much. Ask: How can I make this country, this society, this community better?I often say: loving the country you live in—serving it—is following the sunnah, because that's what the Prophet ﷺ did in Madīnah. Wherever a Muslim goes, they make the place better. In Malay we say: a good seed grows wherever it lands—even on a mountain. That's the believer: wherever we go, we leave goodness.Today I want to focus on Sūrat al-Ḥujurāt—a chapter I call the community's Standard Operating Procedure. It was revealed in late Madīnan years—around year 9 AH—barely over a year before the Prophet's passing. Year 9 is known as ‘Ām al-Wufūd—the Year of Delegations—with tribes pouring into Madīnah to pledge allegiance: sometimes politically, sometimes religiously.Look at the numbers to feel the context. In Makkah, after 13 years of da‘wah, roughly 80-plus men migrated with the Prophet ﷺ. Within two years in Madīnah, that number grew to around 300. At Uḥud, around 700 fought; by al-Khandaq, 3,000. At the Fath (Conquest) of Makkah in year 8, 10,000. By the Prophet's Ḥajj in year 10, more than 120,000. Exponential growth. What fueled it? One key event was the Treaty of al-Ḥudaybiyyah in year 6: a period of peace. In times of war, growth was modest; in times of peace, da‘wah flourished. Islam spreads best with safety, honesty, and service—not with the sword.Now to al-Ḥujurāt itself—“the Chambers”—named after the simple living quarters of the Prophet ﷺ. Despite becoming the most influential man in Arabia, his home was about 5m x 5m. Think of an IKEA showcase room—that's roughly the size. Before Khaybar, the Sahābah often tied stones to their stomachs from hunger. After Khaybar, prosperity came to the community, but the Prophet's personal lifestyle didn't change. When his household's income increased, he didn't buy a bigger house or a fancier camel. He increased in infaq—in giving. Some of his wives understandably asked for more comfort. Allah revealed that the Prophet's family are held to a higher standard, choosing Allah and the Ākhirah over worldly luxury. (Brothers, don't take this as ammunition against your wives—we are not prophets, and our families are not the Mothers of the Believers. Balance is key. The Prophet also taught that the best charity is what you spend on your family.)The sūrah begins: “O you who believe, do not put yourselves before Allah and His Messenger.” Our feelings and preferences take a back seat when the command of Allah and His Messenger is clear. But clarity matters—this is why the Ummah has tafāsīr and scholarship. In the time of ‘Alī and Mu‘āwiyah, the Khawārij claimed, “Back to Qur'ān and Sunnah!” ‘Alī brought the muṣḥaf and said, “Let the Qur'ān speak.” They said, “It can't.” Exactly—we need scholars; the Qur'ān is interpreted and applied through qualified understanding.Next, adab with the Prophet ﷺ: “Do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet…” The context: in the Year of Delegations, Abū Bakr and ‘Umar were assigning officials to receive tribes. Their discussion became loud—near the Prophet ﷺ. Allah revealed the warning that raising voices in his presence could nullify deeds. From then, they barely spoke above a whisper before him. One Companion with a naturally loud voice stopped attending the masjid out of fear. The Prophet ﷺ noticed his absence (as was his habit after ṣalāh) and reassured him.How is this relevant now? When you visit al-Rawḍah in Madīnah, remember your adab—don't push, don't argue. And more broadly: respect the Sunnah and ḥadīth. Don't weaponise ḥadīth to defeat one another. Imām Mālik would bathe, dress well, and apply perfume before narrating ḥadīth—because these are the words of the Prophet ﷺ. His mother told him when he was a child: “Learn your teacher's manners before his knowledge.” Many giants of our tradition were raised by remarkable mothers—may Allah increase the piety of our families.Now, the central ayah for our time—49:6:If a fāsiq brings you news, verify (fatabayyanū), lest you harm people out of ignorance and become regretful.Another qirā'ah reads fatathabbātū—establish the truth carefully. Both meanings are needed: verify the facts(tathabbūt) and clarify the context (tabayyun). Something can be factually true but contextually misunderstood. This ayah was revealed when a zakat-collector panicked at the stern-looking welcome of a Bedouin tribe, returned to Madīnah, and reported refusal to pay. War was nearly launched—until the matter was checked and clarified. It was simply a misreading of their manner.Brothers and sisters, we live in an age of instant forwarding. “Shared as received” does not absolve us. Better not to share than to spread harm. The Prophet ﷺ said it's enough falsehood for a person to relay everything they hear. We will be accountable for what we circulate.Next, Allah addresses conflict: “If two groups of believers fight, make peace between them.” Note: believers—disagreement and even fights can sadly occur in this world. Our job is to be peacemakers—afshū al-salām—not arsonists who inflame tensions.Then Allah forbids mockery, belittling nicknames, and demeaning jokes. A one-off joke may pass; repeated “teasing” cuts the heart. Joke with people, not at them. Give good nicknames—like the Prophet ﷺ did with Abū Hurayrah, “father of kittens,” because he loved cats.Finally, the universal ayah—49:13:“O mankind, We created you from male and female, and made you into peoples and tribes so that you may know one another…”Islam doesn't merely tolerate difference—it celebrates it. Li-ta‘ārafū—so you can truly know one another. Our diversity is a strength, not a weakness.A small story from campus days: we used to hold ifṭār at the Hacker Café. When policy changes demanded payment for bookings, the Malays among us—known for adab and non-confrontation—were ready to accept and move on. Our Arab brothers said, “No, this is our right; let's advocate.” Alhamdulillah, by different strengths working together, we kept the space. Sometimes a firm voice is needed; sometimes a calming voice. We need each other.Even our food is multicultural. Malaysians and Indonesians love sambal, but chilli isn't native to us—it came via Iberian traders after their colonisation of the Americas. They found it too spicy and passed it along; we said, “Bismillah—this is amazing!” Now, a meal without sambal hardly feels complete. That's multiculturalism on a plate.The Anṣār and Muhājirīn had different temperaments. The Prophet ﷺ praised the Anṣārī women for their confidence in asking questions—something Makkan women initially found difficult. Different strengths, one Ummah. Be like the beethat seeks flowers, not the fly that looks for wounds.Even our differences in madhāhib and approaches are strengths. Teaching ‘aqīdah to children benefits from the clarity and simplicity associated with “Salafī” pedagogy; engaging philosophers and other faiths may require the tools preserved in Ash‘arī and Māturīdī kalām. In fiqh, our differences are a mercy. I came from a Shāfi‘ī background where Jumu‘ah requires forty settled men. Early on here, I looked out and counted twenty-eight—then remembered I hadn't checked visa statuses! Alhamdulillah for Ḥanafī fiqh, where a much smaller number suffices. Our differences, handled with adab, make life easier, not harder. The line is only crossed when difference turns to violence or takfīr over minor issues.Thank you for spending your precious, cold winter morning with me. We ask Allah to accept this from us.We make du‘ā' that Allah blesses Indonesia with peace, prosperity, and barakah for her people; that He blesses the entire Ummah; that He blesses Australia and guides its leaders to make wise decisions for the public good—not just for narrow economic interests of some quarter.We ask Allah to protect our brothers and sisters in Palestine, especially Gaza. O Allah, they are hungry—feed them. They are surrounded from every direction—but all directions belong to You. Protect them. Grant the martyrs the highest Jannah. Reunite parents and children separated by rubble, and reunite us with them in Jannah. Do not let our hearts turn away from them when the world turns its back. Use us as means for their aid and liberation. Guide us, employ us in Your service, and accept from us, O Most Merciful.Āmīn. This is a public episode.

Millions were martyred for a land they believed would uphold Islam — but today, that very land enforces silence. What happened? The Sheik dissects how nationalism, patriotism, and state worship have shattered the Ummah, leaving Gaza, Kashmir, and Sudan to bleed alone. If you think your flag protects you, think again and listen to this important lesson from Islam.

Why are the oppressors winning, despite our numbers, our wealth, and our prayers? This discussion goes beyond surface-level outrage and forces us to ask: what is still missing in our response? With piercing clarity, it uncovers the invisible chains holding the Ummah back — not from resistance, but from divine support. If you're tired of waiting for change, this is where your thinking must begin.

Did you know that Surah An-Nisaa contains eight remarkable Ayat which Ibn Abbas revered as more magnificent than everything under the sun? In the next few minutes, we will explore these verses and the blessings they hold for our Ummah. Gather the family, sit back, and listen!

Muazh Ibn Jabal (رضي الله عنه) (S18) The Sunnah of making up missed rakats was introduced by Muazh رضي الله عنه, and The Messenger ﷺ ordered us to follow suit. Now, billions follow - imagine the honour for Muazh! رضي الله عنه The Messenger ﷺ: “The most compassionate of my Ummah, to my Ummah is Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه. The strictest in religious rulings is Umar رضي الله عنه. The truest in Haya is Uthmaan رضي الله عنه. The best reciter of the Qur'an is Ubay Ibn Ka'ab رضي الله عنه. The most learned in inheritance laws is Zayd Ibn Thaabit رضي الله عنه. The most learned in matters of Halal and Haram is Muazh Ibn Jabal رضي الله عنه. Every Ummah has a trustworthy one, this Ummah has Abu Ubaydah رضي الله عنه”. Umar, Ali and Muazh رضي الله عنهم all share the same opinion with regards to a Hadith - such is an honour to be amongst these two great souls.

Muazh Ibn Jabal رضي الله عنه (S16) Muazh رضي الله عنه asked The Messenger ﷺ “Where does mischief lie?”, The Messenger ﷺ replied: “Don't ask of mischief, ask about good - to answer your question, the greatest mischief is from wicked scholars”. Umar رضي الله عنه: “The ones who will destroy this Ummah are hypocrites with educated tongues”. Muazh رضي الله عنه: “Acquire knowledge, it is an excellent thing. Seeking it is worship. Reviewing it is glorifying Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وتَعَالَى. Researching it is Jihad. Teaching it to the ignorant is charity”. The ants in their holes and whales in the sea pray for those who teach good.

¿Qué es tawba? (arrepentimiento)Hz. ‘Ali (ra) un día se encontró con un árabe en la mezquita, y éste estaba con sus brazos abiertos diciendo: “¡Astaghfirullah, Astaghfirullah, Astaghfirullah!”, como muchos de ustedes en sus tasbih diarios, cuando deben hacer cierto número de istighfar.Si uno dice: “¡Oh señor perdóname!”, solamente con la boca, entonces la boca está mintiendo, porque el resto no confirma esto que está diciendo.Así pues el hombre le pidió a Hz. ‘Ali (ra): “Ya, ‘Ali ¿Qué debo hacer para que esto que pido sea verdadero?” Hz. ‘Ali (ra) le dijo: “Yo te enseñaré. Primero que nada, cuando dices ‘Señor perdóname', debes nombrar el motivo por el que te estás arrepintiendo, aunque Tu Señor lo sabe muy bien”.Pero para darse cuenta de lo que uno hizo mal debe saber que está bien y qué está mal, es decir que uno debe darse cuenta, estar consciente de lo que está haciendo. Pero si uno está dormido e inconsciente, y no tiene el ‘ilm para saber lo que está mal y lo que está bien, uno solamente está hablando con la lengua, diciendo: “¡Oh señor perdóname!” Uno debe incluir en el arrepentimiento de qué es lo que uno se está arrepintiendo.En segundo lugar, uno debe al mismo tiempo, tener la intención, de allí en adelante, de no volver a cometer nunca más el pecado por el cual se está arrepintiendo. ¿Pero ustedes saben cuán a menudo nos damos cuenta de que hemos hecho algo mal, le hemos pedido a Allah (swt) que nos perdone, y los hacemos de nuevo?¡Ya Rab, despiértanos de este estado de inconsciencia, Ya Rab, haznos estar atentos, despiértanos de este estado de inconsciencia, Ya Rab, aparta nuestros corazones del amor de este mundo. Tú dices que no te contienen los dieciocho mil universos que has creado, pero dices que sí te contiene el corazón de Tu amado creyente. Ya Rab, perdónanos, ayúdanos a limpiar nuestros corazones. Ya Rab, nos has dado el honor de crearnos bajo la forma de seres humanos, y has enseñado a nuestro padre Adam (as) los divinos nombres que tenemos en nosotros mismos. Ia Rab, haznos amar a Rasulullah (saws) que nos has dado como un ejemplo. Ya Rab, perdónanos. Ya Rab, aumenta nuestro amor por Ti, aumenta nuestro amor por aquel que Tú más amaste, Hz. Muhammad (saws), Ya Rab, aumenta nuestro amor entre nosotros y une a la Ummah de Muhammad (saws). Tú dices que amas a los que se aman por Ti, haz que nos amemos el uno al otro por Ti!

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.

Why is the Ummah failing? In this explosive Manchester session, Sahil Adeem exposes the crisis — parenting, politics, Palestine, and purpose.

On one side, the Prophet ﷺ said, “The scholars are the inheritors of the Prophets.” On the other, scroll through Muslim spaces on social media and you'll see comments like: “Scholars for dollars.” “Agents of the government.” “Bootlickers.” It's easy to join the noise until you realise what you're signing up for: - The blessings of true Islamic knowledge - The slow death of your heart, poisoned by mockery and arrogance But what about those who do attend their gatherings, watch their lectures, and sit in their circles? Are they fulfilling the rights due to the scholars? Or has the honour faded even among those who claim to benefit? In this powerful session, Shaikh Dr. Asim Al-Qaryooti - translated by Sheikh Sadiq A. Yasin - outlines: - The exact rights Islam gives our scholars, in life and after death - The etiquettes we must uphold, and the real danger in neglecting them - What the Salaf did differently — and how far we've drifted - Why slandering scholars doesn't just harm them, but damages the Ummah itself - And the simple, transformative path back to adab, dignity, and divine mercy The question is no longer “do you listen to them?” It's “Do you treat them as Islam commands?” Sign up now to AMAU Academy: https://www.amauacademy.com/ AMAU Academy: https://www.amauacademy.com/ AMAU Junior: https://amaujunior.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amauofficial/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/AMAU Telegram: https://t.me/amauofficial YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/AMAUofficial Twitter: https://twitter.com/AMAUofficial iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/al-madrasatu-al-umariyyah/id1524526782 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/08NJC1pIA0maaF6aKqZL4N Get in Touch: https://amau.org/getintouch BarakAllahu feekum. #AMAU #islamicscholar #islam #islamiclectures #islamicmotivation

A believer faces a war on all fronts — the enemy within, the whispers of Shaytan, and those who fight the truth openly and from within. In this powerful episode of the Seerah of the Prophet ﷺ, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan explores how the Prophet ﷺ shaped an Ummah ready for every battlefield — starting with the one inside.  Long before swords were drawn at Badr, Uhud and Khandaq, the Companions رضي الله عنهم learned to conquer their own desires, doubts, and fears. You'll see how the early Muslims were trained verse by verse, heart by heart — building an unshakeable fortress of knowledge, action, patience and sincerity. You'll learn about the believer's weapons: Iman that shields the heart, knowledge that exposes every lie, patience that locks down the Nafs, and a sword that rises only when commanded — not by rage or ulterior motives, but by revelation and wisdom. And when the external fight came — with disbelievers, hypocrites, and open enemies — they were ready. Their victory began before the battlefield, in the quiet moments of struggle against themselves. Which enemy is closest to you? Are you armed for all four fights? Watch and rediscover the battles you face daily — and the Seerah that still guides every step.

“Don't take it literally.” “That would be Tashbeeh.” “Allah doesn't really have a face, hand, or anger — it's metaphorical.” You've heard these claims. Maybe in a lecture. Maybe in online keyboard wars. Maybe in a casual conversation. But are they true? In this session, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble explains Tawheed al-Asma wa as-Sifat — belief in Allah's Names and Attributes — with structure and proof, just as it was understood by the Salaf of this Ummah. You'll learn: - What it means to affirm Allah's Names and Attributes without denial, distortion, or resemblance - Why the Qur'an and Sunnah speak clearly — and why that's enough for the believer - How deviant groups like the Jahmiyyah, Mu'tazilah, and Ash'aris went astray by placing philosophy over revelation - And how this part of Tawheed shapes your worship, your dua, and your connection to Allah This isn't a side topic. It's the foundation of knowing the One you worship — without compromise.
