Description : The Muttaqeen (those who adopt taqwa) are amongst the special servants of Allah سبحانه و تعالى whom He has referred to as those who have attained success and to whom he grants His love and protection. This talk refers to the subject of taqwa relating to women and how the laws of the Shariah pertaining to women are not misplaced. On the contrary these laws accord women with their correct dignity in the sight of Allah سبحانه و تعالى .
Description : Mankind is inherently weak and is therefore naturally inclined towards worldly comforts. One can often fall foul of personal perceptions and consequently may find difficulty in understanding some of the laws Allah سبحانه و تعالى has ordained. The question arises, is the Shariah a set of ancient religious dogma that bears down as a heavy burden upon the shoulders of mankind or is it a blessing and means of deliverance from mankind’s lower bestial trait.
Description : The Prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم has warned the Muslims not to follow in the foot steps of the people that came before. The Holy Quran is unlike previous scriptures that were changed and interpreted in accordance to the whims and desires of those who claimed custodianship. Allah سبحانه و تعالى Himself has promised to divinely protect the Quran from any changes until the end of time. The efforts of the pre-eminent ulama have protected the Quran from erroneous interpretation of unqualified scholarship.
Description : In the 10th year of Prophethood, Allah سبحانه و تعالى blessed His beloved Prophet صلى الله عليه و سلم with an amazing miracle. The journey of Isra and Mi’raj was one of mind, body and spirit (not merely a vision as some callously claim). During his visit to paradise and hell he was bestowed with the special gift of Salah for his followers. Parallels are drawn with the situation Muslims find themselves in today.
