23: Divine Oneness, Hope & Fear – Renewal by the Book: Quran Tafsir Based on Imam Ghazali’s Ihya – Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

In this lesson of Renewal by the Book, Shaykh Faraz reviews verses from the Quran that correspond with the chapters on Divine Oneness, hope and fear in Imam Ghazali’s Ihya. There are verses that focus on hope and others on fear in the Quran and both are equally important to consider. The companions used to discuss the most hope inducing verses in the Quran and the most fear inducing verses in the Quran, so will this lesson. From each one can derive what this expresses about the Oneness of Allah and our relationship with him. قُلْ يَا عِبَادِيَ الَّذِينَ أَسْرَفُوا عَلَىٰ أَنفُسِهِمْ لَا تَقْنَطُوا مِن رَّحْمَةِ اللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا ۚ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ Say, "O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah . Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful." [Quran, 39: 53] In this verse Allah guarantees that He forgives all sins if one repents from them and even if one does not repent then the matter is to Allah’s will to forgive the person even if they haven’t repented. As such, there is none that is as forgiving as Allah, He is the most Merciful. وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَىٰ And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied. [Quran, 93:5] In this verse, Allah tells us that our hope should be placed in the Hereafter and not in this life. This life is meant to be testing, but the greatest reward will be given in the Hereafter. In this verse the term Rabb is used to denote that Allah is the One who cares for us, continually, towards our ultimate good; the only condition for this is for us to accept the way of the Prophet, peace be upon him. Verses of Fear: وَاتَّقُوا النَّارَ الَّتِي أُعِدَّتْ لِلْكَافِرِينَ And fear the Fire, which has been prepared for the disbelievers. [Quran, 3:131] We fear Allah because we know Him, because just as He is Merciful He is Majestic and All Powerful. Thus one needs to be cognisant of the station of our Lord. One should understand the verses of the Quran personally, so when it talks to the disbelievers or the Pharaoh one should not take that to mean people other than themselves, it can apply to you as well. وَقَدِمْنَا إِلَىٰ مَا عَمِلُوا مِنْ عَمَلٍ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ هَبَاءً مَّنثُورًا And We will regard what they have done of deeds and make them as dust dispersed. [Quran, 25:23] This verse reminds us to not just assume that our actions will be accepted because acceptance is dependent on our sincerity. Shaykh Faraz explains that actions are but an empty shell whose life giving reality is sincerity. In sum, Shaykh Faraz concludes that this all returns to knowing Allah and the ultimate testament of faith is to know that there is no God and no one that we are in need of except Allah. Then one should live by the Prophetic Sunnah through their belief and action that emulates the Prophet, peace be upon him. In this series Shaykh Faraz, and the other scholars and teachers will be looking at points of reflection from key verses in the Quran. The series will follow the thematic order of Imam Ghazali’s Ihya Ulum al-Din (Renewing the Religious Sciences). The aim is to connect the key verses of guidance from the Book of Allah with the blueprint of renewal, the Ihya, so that we experience a renewal by The Book.

33 – Be Truly Like the Prophet (Peace be upon him- Shaykh Sadullah Khan

33 – Be Truly Like the Prophet (Peace be upon him- Shaykh Sadullah Khan

In this episode, Shaykh Sadullah asks us to reflect on a very critical issue. As followers of the Prophet (peace be upon him) are we truly like him (peace be upon him)? Or is our attachment to the Prophet (peace be upon him) just a claim. Whilst we are very quick to speak about the beauty of Islam, very few of us actually manifest the Prophetic qualities in our daily lives.

31- Righteousness the Objective- Shaykh Sadullah Khan

In this episode, Shaykh Sadullah discusses one of the central themes of Ramadan, the concept of God-consciousness. Ramadan is a month where we as Muslims try our best to increase in God-consciousness with our acts of worship. However, we should not assume that physical rituals alone will allow us to develop God-consciousness. Our moral and spiritual conduct are also integral in developing God-consciousness.   For more SeekersGuidance podcast shows, visit seekersguidance.org/podcasts.

27-100 Days and Thinking- Shaykh Sadullah Khan

In this episode, Shaykh Sadullah reminds us that it was just over 100 days ago that the Coronavirus emerged and spread from Wuhan (China) to the four corners of the globe. In such a short period of time, the world has ultimately been shut down. The economic effects have compounded the concerns and fears of millions across the world. The lives of so many people will never be the same again. Therefore it is absolutely critical that we learn whatever we can from this global event.

The Great Opening – Sura al-Baqara’s Opening On the Qur’an – Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

The Great Opening – Sura al-Baqara’s Opening On the Qur’an – Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

The Quran has a truly great opening. In this inspiring talk, Shaykh Faraz Rabbani explains how the opening of Sura Baqara builds on the Opening Sura the Fatiha and outlines the characteristics of successful Believers.     Sura al Fatiha: 1-7 1. In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful. 2. Praise be to God, Lord of the Worlds. 3. The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. 4. Master of the Day of Judgment. 5. It is You we worship, and upon You we call for help. 6. Guide us to the straight path. 7. The path of those You have blessed, not of those against whom there is anger, nor of those who are misguided. Sura al-Baqara: 1-5 1. Alif. Lam. Meem. 2. This is the Book in which there is no doubt, guidance for the righteous. 3. Those who believe in the Unseen, and perform the prayers, and donate from what We have provided for them. 4. And those who believe in what was revealed to you, and in what was revealed before you, and are certain of the Hereafter 5. These are upon guidance from their Lord. These are the successful. Translation from Dr. Mustafa Khattab translation. For more SeekersGuidance podcast shows, visit seekersguidance.org/podcasts.
