Value Your Time

Majlis programme: When performing Wudhu our small sins are forgiven but we must make tawbah (repentance) in order for our big sins to be forgiven. Whilst making the Wudhu we should ask for forgiveness by reciting the masnoon dua as taught to us by The Beloved Prophet (SAWS) and Insha Allah in this way both our small and big sins will be forgiven. Our homes should be places where we find comfort, spaciousness and tranquillity.

Quranic Explanation programme: We should have love and respect for the family of The Beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAWS). A brief biography of the daughter of The Blessed Prophet (SAWS) Zaynab (RA) and her husband Abul Aas bin Rabeeh (RA). The importance of performing Salaah and how to attain Khushoo and Khudoo. We must make effort to improve the quality and concentration in our Salaah. Explanation of the Quranic Surah Al Maarij Verses 19, 20, 21, 22 and 23.

Majlis programme: We should not talk during Wudhu (ablution) unless it is absolutely necessary. By performing wudhu correctly and perfectly it will help us to attain Khushoo and Khudoo in our Salaah. We should never think that we have fulfilled the Haq (right) of Allah. The Beloved Prophet (PBUH) would make Istighfaar after He had finished the salaah and whose salaah is better than the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) thus we should follow this Sunnah as there are many mistakes in our salaah. Whenever we do a good deed we should praise The Almighty Allah and seek his forgiveness. Allah loves humbleness and humility. Before we go to sleep we should take account of ourselves, remember death and make sincere repentance. We learn from many pious personalities and their stories of how sincere repentance helped raised their status.

Quranic Explanation programme: We should take account of ourselves as the days are going by very fast. Today we are alive but who knows when death will overtake us. As Qiyamah comes closer sudden death will increase. The Almighty Allah showers so many bounties upon us and we should give shukr (thanks) to Allah every day. One such bounty given to us is water and imagine how difficult it would be if we didn’t have access to water even if it is for a day. To be successful we should follow the Sunnah such as having a beard, using miswaak and ensuring circumcision is undertaken. The benefits and rules regarding circumcision. Explanation of the Quranic Surah An – Nahl Verse 123.  

Majlis programme: The purpose of Tazkiya/Tasawwuf is that we purify our inner self. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was always in the state of Wudhu. That person who tries to keep himself in the state of Wudhu and he has steadfastness on this then he dies as a shaheed (martyr). The masnoon dua which is said during Wudhu which we should learn and its explanation. The Beloved Prophet (PBUH) states in a Hadeeth that he would make Istighfaar 70 times a day. We should ask Allah for forgiveness all the time as there are lots of sins and mistakes that are made and we don’t even know that they have been committed and Allah is the only one who can forgives us and Allah Is Oft Forgiving. The Importance of Salaah and it is compulsory 5 times a day. Missing salaah without a valid excuse acceptable in the Shariah takes us to the brink of kuffar. 

Majlis programme: We should always try and be in the state of wudhu as this is a blessed Sunnah of The Beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). If it is not possible to perform wudhu with water when it breaks then perform tayaamum as this way we can still be in a state of wudhu. The Masnoon dua of wudhu which we should learn and its explanation. The Sunnah of starting any good work with Bismillaah hir Rahman nir Raheem such as wudhu or starting the car etc.  We should view no sin as small and no good deed as insignificant as we don’t know what could displease or please The Almighty Allah.

Quranic Explanation programme: We should take some time out of our daily lives to remember death daily (Muraaqabah – e - Maut) even if it is for a few minutes. An account of the life of Imam Bukhari (RA). Saheehul Bukhari is the most authentic book in one compilation after The Quran ul Kareem. One important lesson we learn from the life of Imam Bukhari is sincerity. We must be sincere in everything we do Insha Allah.

Majlis programme: It is stated in the Hadeeth that purity is half of faith. In our journey to The Almighty Allah one of those things that take us forward is external purity and the first thing is Wudhu (ablution). We should always try and stay in the state of Wudhu and this is a Blessed Sunnah of The Beloved Prophet (pbuh). We should try and make wudhu before we go to bed. The importance of making intention before wudhu is that when we make Wudhu we are being purified from the inside.

Quranic Explanation programme: This Hajj is a very big act of ibaadah (worship) and it is a great blessing of The Almighty Allah. Those Haajis whom have returned from Hajj we should request them to make dua of forgiveness for us. The more shukr (thanks) we give to Allah the more Allah will increase his bounty upon us. The history of Zam Zam water and its blessings and benefits. Explanation of the Quranic Surah Ibrahim Verse 37.

Majlis programme: Everyone can acquire the connection with Allah and the first thing is that we should have true desire, courage and effort. Anyone who strives towards Allah, Allah opens the different ways to him/her that leads towards Allah. There are certain things which make the journey much quicker on this path to Allah such as true desire, connection with the Shaykh etc. and there are certain things which stop the journey or take you backwards such as COMMITTING SINS.

Quranic Explanation programme: The further we are away from the time of The Blessed Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) the more spiritual deprivation the people will encounter. Today we miss the compulsory salaah and we do not feel any remorse. We should increase our worship but it must be sustainable changes and one such worship is the Tahajjud Salaah before you go to sleep. Today everyone knows in the bottom of their hearts who the oppressors are and who is the oppressed. Knowing is one thing, believing is another thing and acting on it is a third thing. We should not help the oppressors otherwise the fire could catch us. Even if you lean slightly towards an oppressor then the punishment is that the fire will catch you. Explanation of the Quranic Surah Fussilat verse 13 and Surah Hud verse 113. 

Majlis programme: A small act done in these 10 blessed days and nights of Dhu – Al – Hijjah is better than a big act done outside of this month. The day of Arafah is when Shaytaan is humiliated as he sees the Mercy of The Almighty Allah descend upon that day as big big sins are forgiven. Arrogance is the mother of all the evil illnesses. On this path which leads to Allah we have to have the true desire (talabis saadiq), abundance of Zikrullah, total obedience to Allah and stay away from all the sins and there is no bigger worship than that. Today what we do is many good deeds but we also do many sins as well.

Quranic Explanation programme: The first 10 days and nights in the month of Dhu – Al – Hijjah are very blessed and we should try and make the most of these days. The Almighty Allah gives us opportunities again and again such as the Blessed Months of Ramadhaan, Dhu – Al – Hijjah, Muharram so that on the Day of Judgement we have no complaints or excuses as to why we didn’t worship The Almighty Allah. We should fast this Saturday 5th of November as this is the Day of Arafah and the reward of fasting on this day is the forgiveness of the sins of the past year and the coming year. Explanation of the Quranic Surah Al Fajr Verses 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Quranic Explanation programme: We should be organised and prepared in advance for any task we undertake. The death of Gaddafi. Oppression is very much hated by The Almighty Allah. When someone has committed a sin and that punishment (hadd) which has been given in the Shariah for that sin is given then that hadd that has come on him will purify him of that sin. We should always make tawbah (repentance). A believer (mumin) will one day succeed as he will enter Jannah. This imaan is so powerful that one day it will save you.  Explanation of the Quranic Surah Al Maarij Verses 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23.  

Majlis programme: In this world we want the best of everything but when it comes to religion we are satisfied very easily. The aim of the Shaykh and the student is the pleasure of Allah. We must reveal our condition to the Shaykh regularly otherwise how will he know what our problems/illnesses are and how will he prescribe the remedies. We should not openly make others aware of our sins but we must tell the Shaykh our sins so he can prescribe a remedy to OVERCOME those sins and get rid of them in order to move forward and reach Allah. A true Shaykh will NEVER look down on his students nor share their secrets with others but rather he is there to HELP US AND MAKE DUA FOR US!

Quranic Explanation programme: Qurbani is a beautiful act and it is part of the Hajj. It is a remembrance of the sacrifice of Ibrahim (AS). How the Qurbani should be distributed and we shouldn’t be stingy regarding Qurbani. When you go for Hajj even though you are the guest of Allah think that you are also the slave of Allah so if anyone gives you any problem you won’t argue or fight back. We should try and read every salaah in the Harmain Shareef. Explanation of the Quranic Surah Al Maarij Verses 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18.

Majlis programme: The Shaykh should feel that this student is mine and the student should feel that this Shaykh is mine. This is known as munaasibat and is the first principle on the path of Tasawwuf/Sulook and without this the student cannot reach that special level.  The second principle is that the student should write to his Shaykh preferably every month to inform him of his spiritual condition whether it increases, decreases or stays the same as well as ask any questions he/she has. 

Quranic Explanation programme: We are now in the season of Hajj and this journey of Hajj is for the Love of Allah. Each action required to be undertaken demonstrates and inculcates in our hearts the Love of Allah. We must be very careful and considerate about the rights of others and have good manners when on Hajj as this is something lacking amongst the Muslims. A sin that Muslims are involved in is the misuse of the eyes in this hot weather and it is for the reason we do not have that sweetness of Imaan. The reality and various stages of the Hellfire. We should ask Allah every day to save us from the Hellfire. Explanation of the Quranic Surah Al Hijr Verse 44 and Surah Al Maarij Verses 11, 12 , 13, 14 and 15.

Majlis programme: Many of the calamities we witness today are because of the SINS of Muslims. We should view these signs from The Almighty Allah as a reminder to change our lives and live according to Islam before death is upon us. One of the main rules (extremely important) when on the path of Tasawwuf/Sulook is to have unconditional love, confidence and trust in the Shaykh as he is the person whom we have chosen to help guide us in order to reach The Almighty Allah and this is lacking amongst the seekers today whether it be old or young.
