Have you ever wondered why Allah used the word Malik (The King) here and not Rabb (The Lord)? For example in the first verse of Fatiha Allah says Rabul Alameen ( The lord of worlds) but here it says Maliki Yaum Addin (The King/Sovereign Of The judgement).
The linguistic Miracle of Quran here is truly amazing. In this verse the word Din is used for judgement which means government, law, order, judgment, decision, reward and punishment and accoun...See more

After reminding us that He is the Most Compassionate and the Most Merciful, He could have spoken of His might, His power, or His overwhelming authority. He could have declared Himself Al-Jabbar, the Compeller , Al-Qahhār The Subduer, The Overpowering. Instead, the reminder comes gently: He is the Master of the Day of Judgment.

Sometimes I listen to interviews on YouTube (most of the time I don't watch all of it, but just listen to the specific parts that catch my interest more to save time), and there's a common pattern that is observable in all interviews.
In the beginning or the opening of an interview, the interviewer introduces the guest (the one being interviewed) by mentioning some of his or her greatest achievements, skills, talents, and so on. A little backgr...See more

The first thing that caught my attention, الحمد لله رب العالمين, right? The Lord of all of existence, العالمين, all of the realms, all of the worlds, all the creations, all the creatures and their functions.
And Allah سبحانه وتعالى is رب العالمين, the Lord of the worlds. And so this idea of His control over everything and how everything is going to function in full harmony.
And when you get into Surat Al-Baqarah, سبحانه الله, it's like the cate...See more

One reflection that I've had is that in making a dua, the main goal of it is actually to strengthen our relationship with Allah in doing so, and the particular thing that we are asking for is secondary.
For indeed, if our relationship with Allah is good, then the ease, help, and the resources that we are asking for in order to handle our situation will automatically come to us through Allah's mercy and in the way that He wills.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate,
So we open the Book of Allah again, it has not closed because Ramadan has gone. The Book of Allah is much needed. Engagement with the Qur’an is a great investment of time, when time in this worldly abode is limited.
We are in always need of Allah’s Guidance. The Book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) are the best sources of guidance.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Especially Merciful,
Another Ramadan which the Most Merciful has bestowed upon us and our imams and teachers will often rightly tell us that there are many who have not made it to this Ramadan. But here we are el hamdulillah. We are witnessing a great mercy. All praise is due to for Allah, Who has gifted us with an opportunity not to take without reflecting upon Allah’s love and mercy.

Fatiha means the opener, and the opener is the one who opens the door to enter and for others to enter as well, in that way the fatiha opens the door for you to enter the quran and benefit from it.
It is also referred to Um al Quran or Um al kitab which means the Mother or Source of the book or Quran. This can be understood by the fact that every verse in the Quran can be attributed to having stemmed from one of the verses of sura al fatiha.

This afternoon, I met with a friend of mine. Our conversation took a turn to discuss childrearing and its connection of how we view our relationship with Allah (SWT). I had mentioned that a few years ago, I met a Muslim lady who masha'Allah had a cute young child, but I noticed that whenever she wanted the child to stop doing something, she would snap, 'haram'. Anything, and everything was turned into 'haram,' when I thought about this later, I r...See more

This verse resonates with me. My entire life, I have been surrounded by vices, trauma, and negative influences, but reading this gives me hope. I submit to Allah after dealing with anger towards authority and those who have hurt me. I bask in the glory that is Islam and free myself from worldly anger and possessions. I hope to grow in my deen and the faith in what I cannot control. By surrounding myself with those committed to good and staying aw...See more
