He chose them for many reasons and divinely. He obviously knows that there will be rules and regulations that will be sent down over a period of 23 years and a strong crop of men whose faith is solid are needed in order to set the first example.

The sacrifices of the companions of the prophet Muhammed (saw) inspires us how they were steadfast on the Deen during adverse situation through their two qualities:- Listening and Obeying Immediately and we should follow a path to tread upon especially when we’ve seen that they are successful so the most successful of all the #Muslimeen from the #Ummah of Muhammad sallAllahu alayhi wa sallam in the earth and the #hereafter.

Love For Your Brother What You Love For Yourself | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk addresses that we are meant to #love one another for the sake of #Allah in this lecture. Whenever I talk about love for the sake of Allah I need to make sure that it’s not just from my mouth just like when we say “La Ilaha Illallah Muhammadur rasulullah sallAllahu sallam” a lot of us never pause to think about what we’ve just said we don’t pause to think of what we’ve just said. But did you ever realize that it actually means I will never ever render a single act of worship for anyone or to anyone or anything besides Allah because there is nothing and no one worthy of worship besides #Allah and that’s my declaration that’s going to take me to #Jannah it’s the biggest gift that you and I have. The same applies to Muhammadur #rasulullah.

“When we see a Muslim brother or a #Muslim sister , we are supposed to feel a connection in our heart for that person if we don’t there is something wrong with us not with them. The solution of the problems of the #Ummah is to instil love in the hearts of the members of the ummah for one another.” -Mufti Menk

We Shall All Be Returned To Allah | Mufti Menk | Sierra Leone 2017

MuftiMenk reminds us that our time on Earth is very limited in this lecture with English subtitle during his tour in Sierra Leone 2017. The prophet Muhammed told that the average life span of the members of my Ummah is between 60 and 70 years but there is no guarantee that we will live up to 60 or 70 years.so who is the winner; the winner is not the one who lives for many years on earth nor is the winner the one who doesn’t live much in this troubled earth; the winner is the one who passes away in a condition that Allah is pleased with him /her. Allah says to us that don’t die except in the condition of submission unto Allah and the one who seeks #forgiveness from a sin is equivalent to he or she who has not committed the sin.

In the end, Mufti Menk mentions that Allah will continue to help a #worshipper for as long as that worshipper continues to help another.

Why I Don’t See Response From My Dua Or Supplication | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk enlightens how to #dua (#supplication)get answered by Allah (swt)mentioning why is it that we make a Dua or what is known as a supplication and we don’t see the reply the response, we don’t see it sometimes. What’s the reason; Rasulullah (saw)has told us that whenever any one of you make dua it is always responded to, Allah replies, Allah responds sometimes we get what we wanted masha’Allah, sometimes we get what we want a little bit later on sometimes we get something in place of what we had asked because Allah knows that is better for us and sometimes Allah (swt) keeps in store for us something in layer of that #prayer or that supplication in the #Akira, so this is all part and parcel of what Allah has chosen for us.

Mufti Menk makes mention of some important issues before or while making dua in the light of #Quran & #Hadiths in this lecture with English subtitle for example cleaning one’s slate to Allah, be regular in #salah, not using swearing words, be patient, etc.
