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."
Remember
Through the Zikr of Allah Ta’ala one may achieve recognition and Maarifat of Allah Ta’ala.
(Hadhrat Moulana Muhammad Zakariyyah rahmatullahi ‘alayh)

- Sahih Muslim
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 maqam of Sayyiduna Bilal RA
The maqam of Sayyiduna Bilal in Damascus. Do you know what love is? Love is Sayyiduna Bilal distributing the wudhu water of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ until everyone around wiped their faces and their bodies with it. It is Sayyiduna Bilal refusing to give the Adhan after Rasulallah ﷺ left this world because he could not bear to make it without seeing his beautiful face. It's Sayyiduna Bilal leaving Madinah and moving to Syria because everything reminded him of the Prophet ﷺ in Madinah, and he could not live in the city without seeing Rasulallah ﷺ every day.
And love is Sayyiduna Bilal on the day that Palestine was conquered. He stood and made the Adhan until he reached, 'Ashahadu ana Muhammad ﷺ....' and he burst out in tears until all the Sahaba wept such that their beards soaked with tears. Why? Because on their happiest days - they were heartbroken that it could not be spent with Rasulallah ﷺ. And love is Sayyiduna Bilal on his deathbed saying, 'What a day of joy! Tomorrow is the meeting with Muhammad ﷺ and his Companions!'
