Your lectures have helped me through so many low points in my life and yet you have no idea how impactful you have been in helping me reignite my connection to Almighty Allah (swt). I pray that Allah (swt) rewards you and your family and reunites you with your loved ones in Jannatul Firduas. Ameen.

Humans behave the same as bees behave. a real life example is that after Timur's defeat of Ottoman Sultan Bayezid I at the Battle of Ankara (1402), a 10-year civil war known as the Ottoman Interregnum (1402–1413) broke out among Bayezid's sons—Mehmed, İsa, Süleyman, and Musa—who fought for control of the fractured empire. This period was marked by fratricidal warfare for the throne, ultimately won by Mehmed I. So why did the others sons didn’t win, but died instead? People will give different reasons but let’s not go into all that. Let’s stay simple and talk about the hive. The hive is the world of the bees, same as this earth is the world of humans. Sometimes there are multiple or more than one queen bees in the same hive. Why is it that only one wins always but not all or more than one? Didn’t all queen bees fight to the death to win then why only one particular queen bee survives but not the others? Again, people may try to give different reasons, but in the end, God’s choice ultimately determines which queen bee will be the winner even if all queen bees exerted themselves to death. So the winner is not determined by how each queen bee strove and exerted themselves to the death, not by whether they all equally deserved to be winners or not, but by God’s choice.

Even if billions of Muslims work to become billionaires with the best of intentions, objectives, and hearts like prophet Suleiman and receive what they worked for, wouldn’t the world cease to function and collapse? the world cannot function if everyone can do the same thing or different things at the same level even if all had the same or different best objectives and intentions. If all Muslims want to become billionaire today and work for the same thing at the same road or even different things at different roads, God won’t allow everyone to be equal or reach the finish line and will choose some to better adapt and gain upper hand than others in the world or else, there will be no employees if everyone could be a billionaire. That’s what I think is the reality of the world. So God’s choice is what ultimately determines winners in hierarchical positions all over the worlds like worlds of angels, humans, and animals rather than equal or equivalent hard works and sincere intentions of everyone.

I’m just presenting a reality about God and his worlds that I believe to be true. it seems to me that God cannot be equally distributive and fair to everyone even if everyone worked equally hard. I thought God can be equally fair to everyone if everyone also equally works hard, but = for everyone cannot be done even if everyone wished. For example, the queen bees fight to death, but only one gets what it wants and others lose even though the losers strove to death. What can one do more than exerting oneself to death, but still God doesn’t feel the loser queen bees deserving to be winners but just one. Marxism is an entirely impossible concept of equality.

One of the sheikhs that I subscribed ❤ Mashaa Allah

Thank you Sheikh, for such an engrossing lecture! I was putting down the key takeaways and practically wrote the whole lecture down. Every word felt deeply relatable and important.
"…everything in life connects you to Allah, but if you don't know Him, then it's just you and life, and how lonely and scary is that…" spot on and what a precarious life. But a heart entrenched in Allah, bounces back from any calamity much faster. Allah never leaves us vulnerable, lonely, anxious for longer than necessary. And mostly it's only to remind us He is always there, recalibrating our tawakkul and reliance on Him alone.
The detailed explanation of the importance of balance between the wings of hope and fear, and the repercussions of leaning too much toward either, brought so much clarity.
Sheikh you pack a punch in simple words
'A believer should have a character that breaks the pre conceived bad notions that someone has about Islam'. Can't agree more with this.
And of course the tafseer of the verses, specially Surah Al Ma'arij 🩵. The heart thinks before the mind, took me back to the first time I attended your lecture in person. ✨
May Allah subhana grant us the character of a true believer. Appreciation and duas for you and your team.

🕋Al Mumin, Giver of security /safety_ opposite of Al Mumin is being fearful
as a person a Mumin means someone who secures their belief and trust in Allah as the Most Trustworthy and the One you believe in.
💫Heart is the centre of all thoughts and belief, every thought in the brain started with your heart that has it's own intrinsic nervous system
@ 3:05 Surah Al Hajj 22:46 reference to the heart as origin of thoughts and understanding.
🔺we connect with Allah's names and attributes in our heart.
🔺waswas are thoughts in the brain, not the heart. Uncomfortable thought means the heart believes differently, and your true identity is discomfort with the thought.These thoughts only define us if we start defining ourselves with them and make beliefs about ourselves.
🔺A thought the heart is comfortable with, is who you are.
🍃Al Mumin is mentioned in the Quran only once in Surah Hashr 59:23 @ 11:45 explanation of verse with Allah subhana's name mentioned in the verse.
🩵while we seek refuge in Allah as giver of security, He also need to be feared.
⚖️a believer lives between a balance of of fear and hope 🔹focus on hope only can lead to a life of heedlessness, sin and disobedience, false illusions and expectations@20:00 Allah gave us a Book🔹 focus on fear can lead to hopelessness, debilitation, depression
✨Ibn Qayyums explanation of a heart of a believer is like a the bird flying in the sky with wings of hope and fear,and it's head is love for Allah, the better the balance the higher the bird soars▪️ Hope & trust in Allah's security and mercy(you grab an opportunity that pleases Allah)▪️fear and awareness of Allah (you avoid what displeases Allah as you fear His anger and loosing His love) This is a fear that guides you towards Allah. 💡fear is natural and makes us cautious, protective, creative,productive,brave, prevents us from doing sins and being oppressive. But too much fear can lead to debilitation & create irrational phobias. To alleviate such harmful fears Allah calls upon us with His name Al Mumin and asks us to find our security with Him. people resort to materialistic ways to keep fears away. fears can make us do but also to do forbidden acts like theft & extortion etc because shaytan puts fear of poverty @ Surah Al-Baqarah 2:268 "Satan threatens you with poverty and orders you to immorality, while Allah promises you forgiveness from Him and bounty. And Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing."
🧭@ 24:32 imp explanation. Mumin is derived from the Arabic word Aman, safety and security. to secure oneself from fear. Mumin is one who provides security to others
🧬Allah has placed in us neuro transmitters n hormones serotonin, oxytocin, dopamine, which help regulate our emotions. it gives us a sense of security with each other. makes us think of how Allah created us, a believer connects everything to Allah.
🗝️every experience in life is connected to one of Allah's names and attributes
Ali Imran 3:191 "They are those who remember Allah while standing, sitting, and lying on their sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth and pray, “Our Lord! You have not created ˹all of˺ this without purpose. Glory be to You! Protect us from the torment of the Fire."
🌴we are not created in a paradise but a place of a test.@ 32:30 Surah Baqarah 2:155-157
👍when you are on your high prostrate in gratitude, and when low seek help and forgiveness from Allah.
✒️10 meanings of Al Mumin 🔸the Granter of stability and security for all humanity, @41:35 🔸the Granter of safety for the righteous, @43:12🔸The One Who protects you from the dangers of the path to Him, @48:18🔸The One Who is not feared from changes and unpredictability, @54:08🔸The Protector and Saviour🔸The Source of safety from threats in life @ 1:01:00 Surah Ali Imran 3:173🔸The Source of safety in the grave, on the Day of Judgement and in Paradise@ 1:02:14 + @1:03:37 Surah Anbiya 21:101-103🔸The One Who is not afraid of His enemies or fear for His allies🔸The One Who fulfils His promises and supports those who call to faith @1:04:45🔸The Trustworthy Guardian and reliable confidence
📜@ 1:05:43 Al Maarij 70:19-34, imp explanation calling upon the actions that we need to take to connect to Allah and seek His security
📿connecting to this Name, we should ensure others feel secure and safe around us
🪻Hadith "The Muslim is the one from whose tongue and hand the people are safe, and the believer is the one from whom the people's lives and wealth are safe."(Sunan an-Nasa'i 4995)
🌼it's not the process but the end result that matters
💜when you have Allah in your heart, nothing in life can beat you
