Whosoever has Allah in his heart, His helper in both worlds is Allah, And whoever has other than Allah in his heart, His opponent in both worlds is Allah."
Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi (ra)

My Faiths Goal

May Allah Ta’ala grant us His Love and the Love of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) , such that it becomes easy to give up all sins and submit to His Obedience. May He protect us all from the mischief of nafs and Shaytaan. May He fill our hearts with Love, Adab, Akhlaq and Sabr for this beautiful Deen and inspire us in being a practical and good Muslims and be true role-models to our community.
"I want to die with my forehead on the ground,the sunnah in my heart,Allah on my mind, the Quran on my tongue & tears in my eyes."

Light of Dawn

I wake with the light of the dawn whispering with joy in my heart and with praise on my lips. In stillness and twilight i stand before you bowing, prostating i call Allahu (swt).
My eyes see your beauty in the dawn's golden hues. My ears hear the thunder as it gloriies you. The rhythm of my heart beats the sound of your name. My breaths rise and fall with the tide of your praise. My soul knew and loved you before i was born and without your mercy is lost and fortorn.
Wherever i may wonder down the pathways of life, my cry to you Allah (swt), is "guide me to ligfht" through all fear and helpness, to you do i turn for your breath of healing and peacedo i yearn. For all that i have , my Allah (swt) all that i am is from you, is for you and to you will return. Inshallah

The Limits of Dhikr

On Sunday, after the Maghrib salaat, our respected Shaykh turned to face us (after performing dhikr) and stated:
“Allah subhanahu wa ta’aala has said in the Quran;

‘O you who believe! Remember Allah with much remembrance’. (33:41)

The only command a person will find with regards performing in abundance, is the command of carrying out dhikr of Allah. In no other verse of the Qur’an or in no other Hadeeth do we find a command of performing salaah in abundance more than that of dhikr of Allah. Likewise no where do we find a command of acquiring masses of knowledge. The list can go on. In conclusion dhikr is the only worship which we must carry out in abundance.

Furthermore, at the time of terror, when one is facing his enemy, Allah subhanahu wa ta’aala has commanded dhikrullah:

‘O you who believe! When you meet (an enemy) force, take a firm stand against them and remember the Name of Allah much…’ (8:45)

And at the time of extreme pleasure, when one is in seclusion with ones wife, at that time he is also required to remember Allah by reciting a dua.

conclusion:- So if at the time of extreme terror, one is required to do the dhikr of Allah and at the time of extreme pleasure, one is required to do the dhikr of Allah, then is it not obvious that in all other conditions a person will be in, he is required to do the dhikr of Allah?!”
