By Ustadh Hassan Elwan

Every believing Muslims desires to have a good ending. During our lifetime we make mistakes, commit sins and things get messy, but we all want to be in the best of our deeds when we die. T is khutbah explains how we can stay focussed, how we can avoid the pitfalls and distractions that are really traps set by Shaitaan.

Self control: the key to success

By Shaykh Hassan Elwan

“Serving Allah is a source of loving delight. Islam is simply the loving surrender of our lower Self to Allah. The road to misery is to follow your own desires, your own whims and caprices, without restraint. The road to lasting contentment is to delay gratification, and to follow with loving obedience whatever pleases Allah.”
