Journey Through Juz’ Amma: The Maqasidic Tafsir

Journey Through Juz’ Amma: The Maqasidic Tafsir

Journey Through Juz’ Amma invites readers to an inspiring exploration of the final section of the Qur’an through the lens of Maqadic Tafsir, a thematic interpretation that reveals the deep wisdom embedded within these verses. This book delves into the timeless struggle between truth and falsehood, focusing on the roles of three key groups: the status quo brokers, the influenced masses, and the Dawah Champions. The narrative begins with the status quo brokers—those who resist change and truth—sowing doubts and skepticism to maintain power. In contrast, the Dawah Champions emerge as the defenders of monotheism, tirelessly working to reach the influenced masses, awakening them to the truth and protecting their community from the traps set by their adversaries.
As the journey unfolds, the confrontation intensifies, moving from intellectual debates to acts of mockery, oppression, and even violence. Yet, the Dawah Champions, with their unwavering faith, remain steadfast, enduring severe trials. Their perseverance is rewarded in two profound ways: either by departing this world as resolute believers or by witnessing Allah’s divine intervention, leading to the defeat of their enemies. A turning point in the journey is Surat Al-`Alaq, where a powerful message is delivered to the Dawah Champions: resist the pressures of the status quo, seek knowledge, prostrate, and draw closer to Allah. This guidance serves as a beacon, uniting believers and strengthening their commitment to Tawheed (monotheism). The final chapters of Juz’ Amma, especially Surat Al-Ikhlas, underscore the vital necessity of maintaining pure monotheism. The book concludes with the protective prayers of Surat Al-Falaq and Surat An-Naas, reminding believers of the constant need for Allah’s support against both internal and external challenges. Journey Through Juz’ Amma offers an inspiring and thought-provoking exploration of these powerful themes. It presents a compelling call for resilience, faith, and reliance on divine guidance in the pursuit of truth and justice. This book is more than a study of the Qur’an; it is a motivating guide for anyone striving to uphold their beliefs in the face of adversity.

Go Back And Pray: For You Have Not Prayed

Go Back And Pray: For You Have Not Prayed

How many must hear the following statement upon ending their Salah?

Go back and Pray? For you have not prayed!!

Muslims can not undervalue the significance of the Salah since it is the first act Allah will question them about it on the day of Judgment, and the acceptance of other good deeds is contingent upon its approval. Similar to Musa peace be upon him, Allah commanded him to establish the Salah under majestic circumstances, “And I have chosen you, so listen to that which is inspired to you. Verily, I am Allah! There is none worthy of worship but I, so worship Me and offer prayer perfectly for My remembrance.” Quran (Taha13-14).

Allah legislated the compulsory Salah upon the Muslim Ummah under majestic happenings above the seven heavens. 

decided to introduce an abridged school edition of Let’s Pray the Prophet’s Way. We hope Islamic Schools can utilize it by including it as part of their Islamic Studies School curriculum.

Al Hamdullillah! Many of you showed their fondness of our work, “Let’s pray the Prophet’s way.” Since the best age group to train to pray correctly is Muslim boys and girls who attend elementary school

we decided to introduce an abridged school edition of Let’s Pray the Prophet’s Way. We hope Islamic Schools can utilize it by including it as part of their Islamic Studies School curriculum.

Know Your Lord: 2nd Edition – The Right Belief Series

Know Your Lord: 2nd Edition - The Right Belief Series

The title Know Your Lord cannot be understood without defining the scope of the terms involved. The guided way a person may acquire knowledge about Allah is through Revelation. No one can see Allah in this world, so knowledge of Him must come through Revelation and not perception. This statement automatically discounts divinity from objects and humans and brings us a big step closer to knowing our Lord through the pursuit of knowledge. The Prophet said, “Be informed that none of you can see Allah until you die” ( Sahih Muslim).The Prophet made that statement in the context of warning us against the Anti-Christ (Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal) who will try to convince people that he is God.The point of the Prophet‘s warning is that if a person claims to be God in this life, then that person is automatically a liar. 

When one looks at the creation of Allah, two conclusions are inescapable: there must be a Creator, and the attributes and qualities of the creation cannot be equal or like the Creator. This means that we cannot gain any knowledge about Allah and the reward that ensues from fidelity to that knowledge except through that which comes to us from Allah Himself through Revelation.

The Maqasidic Tafsir – Volume 5

The Maqasidic Tafsir – Volume 5

Surat An-Nisa’ – The First Sign — Justice for All Through Fair Governance

In the previous Volume of the Maqasidic Tafsir (Volume 4), we illustrated how The Twins (Al-Baqarah and Al-Imran) erected, developed, and protected the two vital foundations of the vicegerent’s character, as follows: –

First, Surat Al-Baqarah formed the vicegerent’s (Khalifah’s) Belief System (Aqeedah) on the two foundations, Attestation (Tasdeeq), and Compliance (Tatbeeq).

Then, Surat Al-Imran cautioned the vicegerent (Khalifah) against the two defects to attestation (Tasdeeq) and Compliance (Tatbeeq), which are, in sequence,

the religious misconceptions, suspicions, and doubts (Shubuhaat), and alluring to whims, and desires (Shahawaat).

The current Maqasidic Tafsir (Volume 5) displays the first of the two concrete signs of success in erecting and developing the monotheistic, virtuous, witnessing vicegerent (Khalifah). The vicegerent (Khalifah) is a member of the harmonious and fraternal community (Ummah), in which the individual works for the benefit of the Muslim community (Ummah) and the community (Ummah) for the use of the individual.

Furthermore, the individuals and community will deliver the milestone in balance, harmony, and integration that leads to creating a virtuous society, and an ethical, humane community. As an authority head, or a member of this diverse, pluralistic community, the vicegerent must govern fairly, secure justice for all, and fulfill the rights of others without any restrictions, regardless of their gender, race, religion, or ethnic background. Therefore, Surat An-Nisa’s central theme is securing the delivery of Justice for All, especially the rights of the weak, orphans, women, minorities, and the mentally impaired.

Maqasidic Tafsir, Volume 5, delivers the 4th lengthy chapter (An-Nisa’) under the title The 1st Sign, of the success of the vicegerent, that is, securing Justice for All through Fair Governance, bearing in mind that the next chapter (Al-Ma’idah) will deliver the 2nd Sign, that is, “Fulfill Your Covenants”.

Refutation of Yasir Qadhi’s Grave Worship Blunder

Refutation of Yasir Qadhi’s Grave Worship Blunder

A layman Muslim asked Yasir Qadhi: “What is the ruling on invoking the engraved saints (Awlyia)? ”Yasir Qadhi answered him publicly, saying, “…The second opinion is the opinion that invoking the saints (Awliya)… it is Haram (Unlawful), and it is evil, and evil innovation, a religions innovation, a Bid’ah, and it is a steppingstone to Shirk (Polytheism).It is opening the doors to Shirk (Polytheism). But it is not Shirk (Polytheism) in and of itself unless that action is accompanied by a belief that you are calling out to a god. I myself am an advocate of this second position. ”Yasir Qadhi’s answer is false, baseless, misleading, deceitful, tricky, and dishonest. However, the worst thing about his answer is the sad reality that as a graduate of the Islamic University of Madinah

He was matching the argument to justify idol worship like the pagan Arabs did during the Prophet’s (s.a.w) time. The Pagan Arabs justified their idol worship saying, “We believe that Allah is the Creator, the Controller, the Provider, the Sustainer, the Giver of life and death, and the Source of every blessing.” Regardless, Allah (s.w.t) still classified them as Polytheists (Mushrikun) in the Quran, and the Prophet (s.a.w) challenged them on all fronts till they gave it up.

Lā ilāha illa Allāh: Worship Your Lord – 2nd Edition

Lā ilāha illa Allāh: Worship Your Lord – 2nd Edition

When I wrote the first edition of this book, "Worship Your Lord," which is the second book of the Right Belief Series, I indented to connect Volume I "Know Your Lord" with Volume II "Worship Your Lord." I am simply saying the correct knowledge of Allah (s.w.t) must lead to worshipping Him. I also intend for the content to help the readers familiarize themselves with the different categories of Monotheism (Tawheed). I intend to simplify the subject of Monotheism (Tawheed), which can help advance the Call of Monotheism (Tawheed), especially for Muslims living in the West. Furthermore, this book will acquaint Muslims with the methodology of understanding of the faithful adherents (Ahlu Sunnah Wal Jama'ah) to the Quran and the Prophetic Tradition (Sunnah).

Until recently, something shocking happened. A Layman Muslim asked Yasir Qadhi the following question: “What is the ruling on invoking the engraved saints (Awlyia)?”

Yasir Qadhi answered him publicly, saying, “…The second opinion is the opinion that invoking the saints (Awliya)… it is Haram (Unlawful), and it is evil, and evil innovation, a religions innovation, a Bid’ah, and it is a steppingstone to Shirk (Polytheism). It is opening the doors to Shirk (Polytheism). But it is not Shirk (Polytheism) in and of itself unless that action is accompanied by a belief that you are calling out to a god. I myself am an advocate of this second position.”

It was shocking to witness someone who is knowingly and willfully encouraging grave worshiping when it is a clear-cut demolition of the Universal Declaration of Faith (Lā ilāha illa Allāh). Yet the hearts of his fans, loyalists remain neutral, and their tongues remain silent?

Lā ilāha illa Allāh comprises two pillars: the complete negation of any form of worship to others than Allah (s.w.t), and the unquestionable and firm affirmation of all forms of worship only to Allah (s.w.t). Yasir Qadhi is a learned person who used to be amongst those whom Allah (s.w.t) honored to defend and preserve this Declaration (Kalimah), but now says that worshiping the graves is everything terrible, evil, sin, innovation, a steppingstone, and a door opener, but not Polytheism (Shirk).

Meanwhile, many people’s dilemmas, including his Facebook fans and other learned Shaykhs in his circle, secure their livelihoods and prestige. So, do they have no care for what happens to the religion?

What benefits does one gain from his adherence to the religion, what good is left in him towards Allah (s.w.t), His religion, and His Messenger (s.a.w) when he sees Allah’s (s.w.t) boundaries and sacredness being transgressed?

Hence, I decided to introduce a revised second edition of the book titled ‘Lā ilāha illa Allāh,’ and to include two additional parts to address and refute Yasir Qadhi’s recent grave worship blunder. I ask Allah (s.w.t) to make this work of benefit to Muslims, including our brother Yasir Qadhi. May Allah (s.w.t) guide us all. Ameen.

Let’s pray the Prophet’s way – 2nd Edition

Al-Hamdullillah, Let's Pray the Prophet's Way was very well received by readers worldwide. Many brothers and sisters from around the globe wrote emails commenting on the efforts; We ask Allah (s.w.t) to accept our efforts. However, Allah (s.w.t) loves those when they do something that they perfect it to the best of their abilities. Hence, we decided to introduce a 2nd edition of the book.

The 2nd edition of Let's Pray the Prophet's Way provides an illustrated way of performing the five daily obligatory prayers (Salawaat) as well as the voluntary-regular and occasional prayers. Performing prayers sincerely for the sake of Allah (s.w.t) and in conformity with the Prophet's Tradition (Sunnah) is a must to validate it and hope for Allah's (s.w.t) acceptance.

We also updated the design of this book in a different way. We used multiple colors and fonts to place distinctions to the essential information in a sentence or a paragraph. Nevertheless, we did our very best to make the reader’s experience quite pleasant.

Let’s Pray the Prophet’s Way provides a comprehensive depiction of the way the Prophet (s.a.w) used to pray based on valid and adequate pieces of evidence from his Tradition (Sunnah). We thoroughly revised each prayer’s (Salah) element and updated chapters with new material as it was necessary. May Allah (s.w.t) succeed us in our efforts. Ameen.
