Islamic Guidance

One day Sulaiman [as] was reviewing his army when he noted that the hoopoe bird was absent without permission. It was the job of the hoopoe bird to look for water when the army needed it, the bird had been traveling in the country of Saba and it returned and declared to Solomon: i found a woman ruling over the people, she has been given many blessings and has a mighty throne! I found her and her p...

There was a man from among Bani Isra’il who was impotent, he had substantial wealth, and only a nephew who would inherit from him. So, his nephew slayed him and moved his body at night, placing it at the doorstep of a certain man. The next morning, the nephew cried out for revenge, and the people took up arms and almost fought each other. The wise men among them said, `Why would you harm each othe...

Iblis was proud and arrogant and considered himself superior to Adam, since Adam was made from clay and Iblis from smokeless fire. For this act of disobedience, Allah cursed him but gave him respite until the Day of Judgment, after Iblis requested it. Iblis obtained permission from Allah and vowed that he would use this time to lead all human men and women astray.

The following story was narrated by Imam Ibn Al Jawzi in one of his books ('Sifat us-Safwah') and Imam Ibn An-Nu’aas in Mashari al-Ashwaq, a heart wrenching story of Abu Qudamah and the youth Muhammad.

'The living go on and the dead do not.' What an extraordinary expression and what an even stranger position to take. When somebody dies, our sorrow and tears, our weeping and mourning soon cease. The funeral rites are held and then all is forgotten. But what is happening to the dead?   Lecturer: Sheikh Safdar Parkar

It's not our deeds it's Allah's Mercy that's causes us to enter Jannah  Speaker: Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi

Al-Isra’ Wal-Mi’raj (the Night Journey & Ascension) is a miracle second only to the revelation of the Qur’an, and it is therefore important that we don’t let this night slip by without reflecting on its lessons and its significance. The Prophet (saw) said, ‘I was then brought a white beast which is called al-Buraq [from the Arabic word barq, meaning lightning], bigger than a donkey and smaller...

There are nearly one thousand miracles of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) which prove his messengership. These miracles were witnessed and they have been narrated till this day by many people who are so trustworthy that it is impossible for them to lie.

Ya Allah forgive our sins

Speaker | Abu Bakr Zoud

And the judgement starts in a majestic scene and the angels will come in rows, when the account of man ends he goes either to Jannah or Jahannam

"Jannah"—also known as paradise or garden in Islam—is described in the Qur'an as an eternal afterlife of peace and bliss, where the faithful and righteous are rewarded. The Qur'an says the righteous will be restful in the presence of God, in "gardens beneath which rivers flow."

The prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.) said: “The son of Adam will not pass away from Allah until he is asked about five things: how he lived his life, and how he utilized his youth, with what means did he earn his wealth, how did he spend his wealth, and what did he do with his knowledge.”

Prophet Muhammad [SAW] was asked many times by many people about when this Day would arrive.  The answer now, even though we have made remarkable advances in all forms of knowledge, particularly technology and science, is still the same. Allah alone knows when the hour that starts the Day of Judgement will be.

Pertaining to the arrival of the month, it is imperative that a Muslim prepares for it before hand and be reflective of all that the month carries and how one can extract the maximum blessings and mercy from it.

It is reported that Prophet Muhammad [SAW] said: ‘The better ones of you in the Days of Ignorance are the better ones of you in Islam when they understand (the religion).” These wise words of Prophet Muhammad [S] were best proved in the case of our hero Khalid ibn AI-Walid [RA]. Speaker:- Shaykh Muhammad Abdul Jabbar

Imam ‘Ali RA was about five years old when he was taken into the household of the Prophet Muhammad. He was one of the first to confirm the mission of the Prophet [SAW], although he was still but a youth.

Uthman bin Affan RA was the longest-serving of the Rightly-Guided Caliphs, leading the community for 12 years, we look at his history,

The life of Umar ibn Al-Khattab (R.A.) is a shining page of Islamic history, which outshines and supersedes all other histories. The history of all nations put together does not contain even a part of what his life contained of noble conduct, glory, sincerity and calling others for the sake of Allah.

Abu Bakr [Ra] was always a very close Companion of the Holy Prophet [Saw], he knew him better than any other man. He knew how honest and upright the Prophet was. Such knowledge of the Prophet made Abu Bakr [Ra] be the first man to follow the Message of Prophet Muhammad [Saw]

we look at some of the highlights of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ [peace and blessings be upon him], Muhammad ﷺ was a man that came 1400 years ago, in an environment where there was injustice, he came and brought peace and tolerance and justice not only to the seventh century arabia but to the whole world. صلى الله عليه وسلم

Muhammad Saw was born around 570 AD in Makkah, His father died before he was born and he was raised first by his grandfather and then his uncle. He belonged to a poor but respectable family of the Quraysh tribe. The family was active in Meccan politics and trade. Many of the tribes living in the Arabian Peninsula at the time were nomadic, trading goods as they crisscrossed the desert. Most tribes...

Incidents and situations from the Prophet's life are real life lessons to help us. Seerah is more than studying biography of a person, it is biography of our most beloved's life and the history of our religion. Michael Hart wrote a book called "The 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History" and he listed Muhammad S as number one. Of course this ranking means nothing to us, we alrea...

The story was told by Layth ibn Abee Sulaym, a follower of the students of Ibn ‘Abbaas. The story is most likely based on things heard from the Christians and their stories about Jesus. We have no way to confirm this story as being correct or accurate, while there does not seem to be anything inappropriate in it. Thus, we are allowed to tell it as a story told by the Christians.

Muslims respect and revere Jesus (peace be upon him). We consider him one of the greatest among God’s messengers and prophets. We believe Jesus is a prophet, messenger, word, spirit, sign and slave of God. The religious texts of Muslims, The Quran and Sunnah (teaching of Muhammad PBUH) have a lot to say about Jesus, his mother, his birth, his mission and trials and tribulations, his ascension and...
