The Islamic Ruling on the Peace Process
[And indeed, there is among them a party who alter the Scripture with their tongues so you may think it is from the Scripture, but it is not from the Scripture. And they say, "This is from Allah," but it is not from Allah. And they speak untruth about Allah while they know.] Ali-Imran 3/78
[And the Jews and the Christians say, "We are the Children of Allah and His beloved." Say: "Then why does He punish you for your sins?" Rather, you are humans from among (all the others) that He created.] Al-Maa'idah 5/18
[And the Jews say, "The hand of Allah is chained." Chained are their hands and cursed are they for what they say. Rather, both His hands are extended; He spends however He wills.] Al-Maa'idah 5/64
[And they were covered with humiliation and poverty and returned with anger from Allah (upon them). That was because they (repeatedly) disbelieved in the signs of Allah and killed the Prophets without right. That was because they disobeyed and were (habitually) transgressing.] - Baqarah 2/61
The Sahabah

And the first to embrace Islam of the Muhajirun (those who migrated from Makkah to Al-Madinah) and the Ansar (the citizens of Al-Madinah who helped and gave aid to the Muhajirun) and also those who followed them exactly (in Faith). Allah is well-pleased with them as they are well-pleased with Him. He has prepared for them Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise), to dwell therein forever. That is the supreme success. [Tawbah 9:100]
Hijrah

The migration of the Prophet (pbuh) meant the beginning of a Muslim world. It is also seen as a symbolic gesture of rejection and flight, away from all that is unjust and impure, to the establishment of what is just and victorious. The talk not only covers the hijrah of the Prophet, but also the hijrah which Allah calls us to fulfil, as well as its legal standing in the Shari’ah. Hijrah is considered the best of iman and thus, we are all urged to carry out this most blessed act.
Muslim Women Facing Modern Challenges

The Muslim women today are facing unprecedented pressures from all sides to discard the values that have given them strength and victory for hundreds of years. This lecture addresses the issue of sisters who are perhaps weakening in their Imaan or have doubts about certain obligations that are required of them and how they can conquer these issues. It is also an asset to sisters who are strong in the Deen and committed to the Qur’an and Sunnah.
Usool ul-Fiqh

Usoolul-Fiqh: it is the science concerning the comprehensive evidences of fiqh. Since fiqh consist of either [i] masaa‘il (issues) concerning which the ruling by one of the five rulings is sought, or [ii] it is the dalaa‘il (evidences) employed in extracting and determining these masaa‘il (issues). So fiqh is actualy knowledge of the masaa‘il (issues) and the dalaa‘il (evidences).

Ghurabaa (Strangers) Series

The Prophet (saw) said "Islaam began as something strange and it will revert to how it began as something strange. So glad tidings of Paradise (1) to the strangers" The people asked, "Who are they, O Messenger of Allaah?" He answered, "Those who are pious and righteous when the people have become evil." (Ahmad, ibn Hibban and others, sahih due to supporting evidences, see Badr al-Badr's footnotes to Abu Bakr al-Ajari, Kitaab al-Ghurabaa (Kuwait: Dar al-Khulata li-Kitaab al-Islaami, 1983) pp.16-18)

Ramadhan - The Best of All Months

The speaker explains the importance of Ramadan and ways in which a Muslim can elevate themselves in this blessed month. As we may know Fasting (Sawm) literally means "to refrain” but what exactly do we refrain from? The Speaker explains that it is not just from food and drink we stay away from but also evil actions and thoughts. It is a time to re-evaluate our lives and polish our character. The speaker enables us to gain guidance on how to make the most of this month from many examples and lessons from our Islamic heritage.
