Muhammad James Sutton

I am just a very small student of knowledge from Jacksonville, Florida who wishes to share with the world the little bit of knowledge I was blessed by Allah to obtain. I have spent the last two decades between Yemen (2000-2015) and Saudi Arabia (2016-2021) picking up beneficial gems everywhere I went. I hope that those gems can be a benefit to the people that listen to my lessons. May Allah increase us all in beneficial knowledge and righteous actions.

One Moment in the Grave Will Make You Forget Your Wedding Night 29.09.2025

This is a concise explanation of a beautiful poem written by Al-Imam Ash-Shaafi. The main premise of this poem is to advise people to act on their knowledge and to prepare for their deaths. We have become too attached to this worldly life, and we have completely forgotten to prepare for the next life. This type of reminder is something that we need these days. We need to get our heads back in the...

Explanation of the Three Fundamental Principles: Lesson 19 29.09.2025

In this lesson, I go cover the meaning of Al-Ihsaan in the language and in the religion. In Islam, Al-Ihsaan is to worship Allah as if you see him, and if you are unable to do that, to worship Him knowing that He sees you. This is the pinnacle of the worship of the believer. For a person to worship Allah in this manner, he or she has to follow the correct guidance from the Quran and Sunnah in his...

In this episode, the topic of discussion is a Hadith that involves a supplication that we should all get in the habit of saying upon completing any sitting with people. This supplication is for us to ask Allah for His forgiveness for any sins that might have occurred from us or the people that we were sitting with.

Daily Hadith: Day 14 | Greet One Another with the Greeting of Islam 29.09.2025

In this episode, the focus is on giving the greeting of Islam. We now live in a time when a lot of people tend to shy away from saying السلام عليكم to his brother, and this is not the way it should be. We are encouraged in multiple Hadiths to spread the greeting of Islam among ourselves, and we should do so no matter what people might think or say about us. Our following of the Sunnah takes preced...

Daily Hadith: Day 13 | It's Time to Raise Those Garments above the Ankles 29.09.2025

This is an important issue with Muslims nowadays that a lot of our brothers are not taking seriously. People are trying to do whatever they can to fit it with the non-Muslims even if that means dressing and acting in ways that are not permissible for a Muslim to dress or act. This issue of having the pants lower than the ankles is one of those issues. As you will see through the four Hadiths prese...

Daily Hadith: Day 12 | Good Will Come to the Strangers 29.09.2025

The strangers are those that come in the last days and try to implement the Quran and the Sunnah with the correct understanding to the best of their capabilities. They come at a time when the vast majority of the Muslims are steeped in ignorance and misguidance. They will be looked at as strange even among the Muslims. Does that sound familiar? Well, it should. That is the reality of our situation...

Daily Hadith: Day 11 | Consistency Is the Key to Success 29.09.2025

If we want to be successful in any of our affairs, we must be consistent. For us to be consistent, we have to make a routine doing what we are capable of doing on a daily basis. If we try to do too much to quickly, we will burn out and become fed up with what we are doing. We should always start with one action that we can do all the time and keep adding to that action little by little. Focus firs...

Daily Hadith: Day 10 | Do not Lose Hope with the Mercy of Allah 29.09.2025

No matter what sins you have committed or how bad your lifestyle might be at the current time, do not ever give up hope that Allah will forgive your sins. Allah forgave the man that killed one hundred people when he repented, so why do you think that you will not be forgiven, and you have done a lot less than that man. We should constantly hold ourselves accountable for the sins that we commit, an...

Daily Hadith: Day 9 | There Are Those That Learn the Religion, and There Are Those that Do Not Care 29.09.2025

There are three types of people in regards to seeking knowledge of this religion. First, there is the person that seeks knowledge with understanding. He memorizes and he fully comprehends what he memorizes. When he goes back to the people, he is able to assist them in understanding the Quran and the Sunnah through his teaching. Second, there is the person that has a strong memory, but he is lackin...

Daily Hadith: Day 8 | This Is How We Should Give Dawah 29.09.2025

When we give dawah, we should give dawah in the same manner the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم gave dawah. The best guidance is the guidance of the Messenger of Allah, and we should learn how the Prophet gave dawah, so we can give dawah in the same manner. Do not let somebody come in 2021 and tell you anything else. Our religion is taken from the Quran and the Sunnah, and that includes how and what we...

Daily Hadith: Day 7 | Don't Make Your Houses Like Graves 29.09.2025

The shaytan does not enter into a house that Surah Al-Baqarah is read in. This is the reason that it is important for us to constantly read this Surah in our houses, so we can follow the advice of the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم.

Daily Hadith: Day 6 | What Is the Greatest Surah in the Quran? 29.09.2025

From this Hadith, we learn what the greatest Surah in the Quran is. Of course, the greatest Surah is Al-Fatihah. If a person were to sit down and truly ponder over this Surah, he or she would understand why this is the greatest Surah in the Quran. Moreover, if this person were to ponder over this Surah year after year while seeking knowledge, he or she would never tire over pondering over this Sur...

Daily Hadith: Day 5 | Be Consistent in Reading and Reviewing the Quran 29.09.2025

From this Hadith, we understand that the only way we are going to retain what we have memorized from the Quran is through the constant revising of the Quran. If we get lazy with our revision of the Quran, it will leave us much like a camel will escape its owner if the ropes that bind it down become untied. We have to constantly revise the Quran and read the Quran day in and day out. This should be...

Daily Hadith: Day 4 | The Best among You Are Those that Learn the Quran and Teach It 29.09.2025

From this Hadith, we understand who the best among us are. The best among us are those that learn the Quran and teach the Quran. For a person to truly understand this, he would have to ponder deeply over the meaning of this Hadith. The one thing that you need to know is that we cannot truly learn the Quran without learning the Sunnah. The Sunnah explains the Quran, so without knowledge of the Sunn...
