24.01.2022 2 | Quran: Tadabur to act! Tafsir: In the first verse, Allah (SWT) is reminding the believer that the person donating is the one who is ultimately benefiting from giving donations as this deed will come back to him in the day of judgment to intercede for him before Allah. The second verse is the famous Ayatul-kursi. This is the greatest verse in the Quran. There are plenty of hadith narrations advising the Muslim to read this verse during the day and night, before going t...o sleep and after each obligatory prayer. In this verse Allah distances himself from any imperfections such as sleep and emphasises to us His might and majesty by telling us some of His perfect characters and attributes.

19.01.2022 9 | Quran: Tadabur to act! Tafsir: In this verse Shuaib (AS) is calling his people towards Allah with clear and logical arguments. The best way to give dawa...h to people is to lead by example as Shuaib (AS) did. Shuaib (AS) teaches his people a very profound lesson and that is, an individual's success is only achieved through Allah's will and permission and thus should be solely be attributed back to Him.

18.01.2022 7 DAYS TO GO! Introducing our first panel speaker! "The power of a crisis like the pandemic lies in its ability to remind us that we are not in control. In reality, we are almost completely helpless, even in the face of something as small as a viral particle. As our façade of self-sufficiency wears down, we turn towards something, anything that will bring relief and perhaps an explanation a masterplan behind the seemingly random mutations bringing chaos to our once predicta...ble lives. Yet is our yearning for purpose merely a cry into the void? Or is it the uncovering of an innate self, one that recognises its own dependency and humbles itself before its Creator and Sustainer, the ultimately independent cause of everything?" - Hafsah Brown Join us for an open discussion where we tackle these big questions, and critically engage with both your own and others perspectives.

17.01.2022 3 | Quran: Tadabur to act! Tafsir: It's part of Allah's divine mercy and wisdom that he either extends or restrict the provision of people. He knows His creation best. Out of His divine mercy He may restrict a person's provision for their own benefit in this life and in the hereafter. In the second verse Allah comforts the believers by informing them that no matter what sin they commit, as long as they bear witness to the oneness of Allah then the doors of repentance are... open and He surely forgives all sins. Let us start implementing the 'Behavioral responses' from the post in our daily life. Bismillah!

14.01.2022 4 | Quran: Tadabur to act! Tafsir: After bringing attention to the number and the variety of His blessings, Allah SWT highlights the inability of His servan...t to thank Him for all of His favours. Allah SWT reminds that He is the Most Forgiving and the Most Merciful despite His servant's inattentiveness. He does not immediately punish His servant for their lack of attention to His blessings. Allah SWT then explains that He knows all that is within us, nothing is hidden from Him, and we are rewarded accordingly.

06.01.2022 1 DAY TO GO!! As human beings, we can innately know some things to be true. One of those is that some acts are objectively moral or immoral, such as acts which cause harm. But often, moral relativism nonetheless dictates what we think is right or wrong in a given context. So where do we draw the line between objective morality and relative morality, and do we as humans have everything we need to dictate the boundaries of the moral and immoral? To explore these questions and ...more, join us for an open discussion where we critically engage with both your own and others perspectives.
