“[On the Day of Resurrection] Human beings lose their senses, they lose the purpose of their existence, and mothers lose total compassion from themselves. So, what is the relationship between this ending of the human beings’ existence and the idea of Hajj?”

What does Ramadan teach us about the strength of the true believer?

Key Quote:

“Often we think that we have so many weaknesses and we transgress so often that maybe we aren't capable of leaving sin. Maybe we are not capable of overcoming an addiction. But the reality is that if you think about how capable we are, how much restraint that we show in the month of Ramadan, in private and in public…That shows incredible capacity.”

How can someone actually maintain that consistency after Ramadan? How do we use our Ramadan to strengthen our resolve?

Key Quote:

“The most critical time to develop these habits which we may do in Ramadan is the time immediately after Ramadan because we are already in a momentum.”

How do the three objectives of Ramadan: mercy, forgiveness, and salvation from the hellfire connect together to perfect our success as Muslims?

Key Quote:

“Even after an entire month of worship, fasting, losing sleep, exhaustion, it's not our actions that allow us to purchase our freedom, but rather it's the endless bounty of Allah that truly sets us free from the fire of Jahannam (hellfire)”

What are the layers of meaning in the word Qadr? How do we reflect its meaning as Muslims in these last ten nights?

Key Quote:

“The divine power is not just any power. It is a measured and precise power. Every praiseworthy aspect in the noble Quran is for humanity to aspire for as much as humanly possible.”

In Part One of A Muslim’s Guide to Deep Thinking by Mawlana Idris Nawaz, we explore questions of deep pondering. What makes us lose this faculty, trapping us in confusion and indecisiveness?

Key Quote:

“Why did Allah create everything to be so beautiful? The sun can’t conceptualize the beauty in its light. The bird can’t understand the beauty in its song. And neither can the trees in their rustle. You and I are the only creation that can understand it.”

“Our spiritual journey is one that is gradual, people don’t wake up as a…saint. If you are steadfast and you traverse that initial phase, Allah will take you to the next phase.”

“The sunnah of Allah is that He makes these things happen progressively…Allah can bring this life from the dead, meaning the living heart from the dead heart, but that happens gradually.”
