Be careful where you plant the seed: 12th November 2010
True knowledge is only from the Qur’an. The rampant spread of teachings that deny Allah’s existence, pushes Man to the bottomless pit of faithlessness. We must be careful what our children learn, for once this unbelief takes root, the child grows up to be one who lives to seek gratification of his desires. Drunk with seeking pleasure, he abandons the pursuit of true honour that Allah wishes to grant Man, he abandons the worship of Allah Almighty, he turns his back on Servanthood, and he never understands the purpose of his short stint in this world.

Has it never occurred to you, that the Qur’an contains a message for you?

How many of our children are learning and reading the Qur’an today, and how many continue to do it all their lives? Continue reading
The Prophet took 23 years to digest the Qur’an
The Prophet (saw) was taught the Qur’an by Allah, and the Prophet (saw) then taught the Qur’an to the Ummah. How is it that some Muslims have the gall to discard the Prophet (saw), and to belittle his position as the One who was taught by the Most Gracious?
(Allah) Most Gracious! It is He Who has taught the Qur’an. (Quran 55:1-2)
Without Rasulullah (saw), we will understand nothing! Continue reading
