 Night of Forgiveness: Laylat al-Baraat


22. February 2024
A believer never loses hope in the mercy and compassion of Allah (swt). Allah (swt) says in the Quran, "Say, 'O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah. Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful.'” Additionally, in a sacred saying of the Prophet Muhammad (saw), Allah emphasises His infinite mercy towards His servants by stating, "My mercy prevails over My wrath.” This highlights the boundless mercy of Allah, the Most Merciful, towards His creation.

The Racist Is Not One Of Us

15. February 2024
Racism is prejudice, discrimination or aggression towards other people based on their belonging to a different race or ethnic origin. In our era, we witness wars and conflicts stemming from this wrongdoing, leading to bloodshed, tears and atrocities. Millions of people in different parts of the world are practically subjected to genocide, with survivors being displaced from their homes and becoming refugees. Feeling superior to others based on the ethnic group one is born into is a symptom of a soul in need of healing.

Taqwa: The Peak of Servanthood

Purifying Our Souls with Repentance

25. January 2024
Narrated by Abu Bakr (ra), our Prophet (saw) said: 'If a person commits a sin, performs ablution afterwards, then gets up and prays two rakats and seeks forgiveness from Allah, Allah will certainly forgive him.' In the Quran, in the creation of the first human, the physical structure, namely his body, is referred to as "bashar”. When the soul is breathed into it and it attains the capacity to bear the divine trust, the being is then characterised as "human." The most important stage in the transition from being a "bashar" to a human is taught to us in the story of Adam (as). After approaching the forbidden tree, a sense of remorse was felt and and the call was made to Allah (swt): "O our Lord! We have wronged ourselves. If You do not forgive us and have mercy upon us, we will surely be among the losers."
