During my days at college, I befriended a classmate who was well-mannered and a great guy. As someone who often brought up religion throughout my discussions, little did I realise I was being too pushy towards this friend, seeking for him to consider Islam. A mutual friend then spoke to me, reprimanding me that I had been too imposing, although at the time I didn't feel as though this was the case. Disheartened with this news, I remained cautious...Voir plus

People forget that 99 percent of the Companions of Prophet Muhammad (RA) were converts to Islam. Most had a sinful past. They came at different times, each with a different "final straw" that convinced them to submit to God.
Some of them had fought wars against the Prophet (S). Others had imprisoned and even tortured believers. Others ran propaganda campaigns spreading hate against Islam with no justification.
Sometimes, the people closest to you can do things that are wrong. No matter how much you try to warn them, they brush it off, thinking you're too young or inexperienced to understand. And there’s nothing worse than the utter helplessness of watching them carve their own path to destruction, knowing you can't do anything to stop it. You keep trying, keep reaching out, but it feels like your words don’t have any impact. It’s like you're just stan...Voir plus

I was leading a life of a passive Muslim. The perpetuity of my day-to-day logistics was based on earning money for my sustinence and pleasing الله سبحانه وتعا لی. Unfortunately, the former has such an intensity from adolscent conditioning and worldly desires - it overpowers your resilence to what truly matters. Pleasing your Lord becomes secondary - how abhorrent to be gradually overtaken by such philosophy. I had fallen victim in becoming a pass...Voir plus

Yesterday my daughter resisted taking her medication and it seemed she aspirated. My wife became emotional, but I stayed calm—not from indifference, but because in my heart I kept saying 'Yā Rabb.' I was reminding myself: Allah, the Rabb, preserves life with more care than any parent ever could.
In the past, I would have tried to explain this to my wife. But I’ve come to realize: words don’t create realization. The heart only awakens when Allah ...Voir plus

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ
The life of Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ was a mirror of the Prophets before him. It was as if their paths, their trials, their victories and griefs — were gathered into his single journey. For he is Khatam an-Nabiyyīn — the Seal of Prophets.
Mūsā عليه السلام once stood trapped — the sea before him, an army behind. His people cried: 'We are overtaken for sure!' (26:61) But he said with unshakable yaqīn: 'Absolutely n...Voir plus

All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.' (Anonymous)
I was reading this when someone near to me was a bit frustrated when I'm sharing some knowledge of Quran or sharing verses. At times you are loosing hope when people call you orthodox .
The Da’i (caller) is a tool of Allah’s Light As a da’i, you are not the light—you’re a means for the light to reach others. You simply carry and share the message. The li...Voir plus
بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم میری ایک دوست ویتنام میں رہتی ہے جہاں مسلم آبادی تقریبا 0.2 فیصد ہے، جس کی اکثریت بھی کچھ مخصوص علاقوں میں رہتی ہے۔ میں نے اس سے پوچھا 'آپ کو اسلام کے بارے میں کیسے پتہ لگا؟ ' انھوں نے بتایا کہ ان کے ملک میں اسلام کے بارے میں دو ہی چیزیں بتائی جاتی ہیں۔
1. کچھ حرام حلال ہوتا ہے۔ 2. عورتوں کے حقوق سلب کیے جاتے ہیں۔
اسلام کے بارے میں ان کی بھی یہی رائے تھی۔ انھیں ویڈیو گیمز کھیلنے کا شوق تھا اور کچھ مسلمان انٹرنیشنل پ...Voir plus
It can be deeply painful to witness our loved ones engaging in sin, whether knowingly or unknowingly. We want the best for them, and we've tried everything—love, care, verbal reminders, non-verbal gestures—to inspire them to turn towards what is right. Yet, sometimes they reject the truth and sink deeper into their wrongdoings. With heavy hearts, we watch them drift further from the path of righteousness. Then, we come across this ayah and realiz...Voir plus
If you have ever given a speech, taught a class or just had a conversation with someone, one of the most remarkable things to observe is which of your words stick with your listeners. Which bit did you say changed their heart?
