Be Happy With Your Fair Share Of Challenges & Tests | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk starts with mentioning two questions who Am I & why am I here in this lecture ?

He cited from Surah At-Tin Allah says that we have created mankind in the best of postures no other creature of #Allah has a better posture than ours in the #Quran. We have to ask ourselves the question, why am I on earth, how come people come, when I come onto the earth I can’t remember the moment that I came into and I cannot remember at the time that I was in the #womb of my mother but I was living and there was a life at a certain point 120 days I can’t remember anything how come, why? There must be a reason Allah say in surah al Mulk that it is He who created death and life in order to #test you.

Have The Quran As A Lawyer For Judgement Day | Mufti Menk With Nouman Ali Khan & Ali Hammuda

#MuftiMenk mentions that on the day of Qiyamah a person who’s made an effort to memorize and put into practice part of the Quran if not all of it, the person will be told on the day of judgement read recite as you used to in the dunya that’s why I told you read melodiously in the dunya from hadith.

#NoumanAlikhan highlights that Allah Azzawajal described it with light and that light is the only thing that matters on Judgement Day from the verses 12-15 of Surat Al-Hadid and how is it that we can continue to preserve our light and continue to remind ourselves because the day of judgement day is completely dark and the only light is the light coming out of my chest to show us the path to the Jannah (paradise). We can make stronger the light in this world by remembering Allah (swt) more and more through reciting His book.

#AliHammuda cites that the second lawyer of a person on the day of judgement is the book of Allah-the Quran. Quran will speak, defend and intercede for people on the day of judgement and give special attention to two surahs of the Quran Al-Baqarah and Al-imran chapter 2 and Chapter 3 Of The Quran Because they will come on the day of judgement in the form of two clouds or in the form of two canopies or in the form of two flocks of birds and they will be arguing for their people on the day of judgement from hadith.

Why Did Allah Choose Sahaba (RA) | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk mentioned that there was something about the hearts of the #Companions of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam that was different from all other hearts and this is why Allah chose them; selected them and became pleased with them look at these qualities:- #honesty, #trustworthiness & #truthfulness. They were companions because their hearts were special what was so special about their hearts they had honesty. The quality that is loved by Allah is to stand firm upon #justice even if you are losing everything.

Mufti Menk Quotes “Let’s develop our qualities, let’s develop our love for Allah for goodness & justice even if we lose absolutely; If we have Allah in reality you’ve lost nothing and if we’ve gained everything material and lost Allah in the process wallahi we have zero, we have lost everything.”

How Good Am I & What Is The Test For My Goodness | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk mentions that never judge a book by its cover .we judge people based on their external looks and that is not it it’s based on our #character after our belief in Allah and the last day. The prophet (saw) said the best from amongst you are those who have the best character and #conduct. He emphasises on how to develop character and conduct towards others in this lecture.

How Good I am?

———————

“I want to know if I fall in the category of being a person who’s the best of character I need to look at the person whom I need the least according to me on earth; this the person whom the world looks at as totally insignificant; the person whom the world may not even look at the person who perhaps is the lowest in the ranking of those who work for me, perhaps the person who is the least paid, the person who is the lowest in material income; what is my treatment to that person determines exactly who I am.” –Mufti Menk

Be The Most Humble Person While Giving | Mufti Menk

Before starting off the lecture #MuftiMenk mentions that you are just a number. That’s it don’t ever think that you’re better than the people you are speaking to and don’t ever think that you’re higher than anyone else. Because if that’s the case you will never be able to reach their hearts speak as though they are better than you. The talk was given at the #Africa Muslims #Agency – 30 Years Commemoration in Cape Town South Africa. He presents the importance of giving charity and helping orphans unconditionally by quoting from hadiths and the Quran. He says that when we came onto the earth we had zero and when we are going to leave we will still have zero with us besides our deeds obviously. When we die there are two things what we earned is one and what we spent is another subhanAllah we’re going to be asked about both. The best thing give #charity what Allah has blessed with and don’t expect anything.

“Your closeness to Allah is closely reflected in your character those who are harsh and hard-hearted they cannot be close to Allah.” –Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk points out that the way make up is being done today resulted in chaos & depression across the globe and people can’t come to the door without painting their faces by #Makeup in this video clip.

Mufti Menk said that be happy with what you look like for indeed that will become a point of comfort and peace a point of happiness. Don’t worry someone somewhere will really adore you for exactly who you are.

Shaykh Hasan Ali hightlights that #sisters, you’re already #beautiful without wearing all those #glamorous #cloths, #nailingup, #facingup, why? Because Allah azzawajal has made women more beautiful than men naturally. This is the case and you’re beautiful wherever you are and it’s better that you stay naturally the way Alalh kept you.

Learn To Remove The Hatred From Within The Heart | Mufti Menk

#MuftiMenk addresses that currently we are facing many challenges in the #Ummah, the greatest of which is the hatred that we have for one another. This is in contradiction to the teachings of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Our duty is to spread #deen and #goodness to the entire #humanity as a whole.

Mufti Menk said that #Eman starts off by saying the #Shahada and then by believing it in your heart and showing it with all your organs you know working towards it. if you just claim it and you are moving in a different direction all together then what is the point? So we need to learn to love one another. He further adds that #Leadership is when you are able to bring people together when you are able to make people understand that the commonalities are far more than the little differences while he was addressing the youth about leadership in this lecture.
