Saving Planet Earth

“Last week’s Climate Conference (COP27) in Egypt involved a lot of talk, but once again it made very little progress. After many years of conferences like this one, the rich nations who consume the most and pollute the most, are still unwilling to pay their fair share to put things right. It’s the poor nations who consume the least and who pollute the least who suffer the most.,,”

Green Friday

By Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad
“The Climate Conference in Egypt has failed. Human beings have become victims of consumer addiction, that is destroying our planet. Allāh has set up a balance that pervades the cosmos. Allāh warns us in Sūra Al Rahmān that we should not upset the balance, the Mīzān…”

Be authentic: be yourself

By Arshad Gamiet
“In North America today, Islam is spreading rapidly where our brothers and sisters welcome others, without judgement, in the spirit of ta’līf, which means, to bring together, or to reconcile. Their motto is:
“Come as you are, to Islam as it is.” No fuss, no bother, no complicated rituals. It’s a simple invitation to just “Come as you are, to Islam as it is.”
It’s a way of being authentic, being true to yourself, and accepting the real, authentic Truth that is Islam.”

Who will intercede for you on the Day of Judgement?

By Essam Mahgoub

Even though our final destination may be in Allah’s garden, how can we be sure that we won’t first have a temporary taste of the hellfire? This khutbah offers some good advice to ensure that we avoid that nasty experience and pass on from this life straight through to Al Jannah Firdaws…

Some Scenes from the Day of Judgement

Beware of taking Allah’s mercy for granted. You may fool yourself into thinking that you can get away with repeated sinful behaviour, and that Allah will overlook that. Don’t count on it! Never repeat your sins intentionally. Show real remorse. Stop sinning. Be determined not to slip backwards. Do good deeds instead, and sincerely turn towards Allah’s obedience.

Hijra

Brothers and sisters, some of us may have come here to study or to advance our professions and to increase our personal wealth; others may have come to find a refuge from political violence and oppression. These are perfectly good reasons for migration. But remember that he best migration, the real Hijra for us is to undertake the journey from what we are now to what Allah wants us to become…
