The day of Ashura, observed on the 10th of Muharram in the Islamic calendar, encapsulates two historical events with lessons for today.
It marked the day Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) saved Prophet Musa (alayhi salaam) and the Children of Israel from Pharaoh's oppression, demonstrating the ultimate triumph of faith over tyranny.
Centuries later, this very day bore witness to the heart-wrenching sacrifice of Hussain, the grandson of Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him), in the plains of Karbala.

The Prophet (saw) said: "When I say "SubhanAllah walhamdulillah wala ilaha illallah wallaahu akbar (Glory be to Allah, praise be to Allah, there is no god except Allah, and Allah is Most Great)", this is more beloved to me than all that the sun rises upon." (Narrated by Muslim).
These words are the most beloved words to Allah, the best of words, and they weigh heavily in the balance of good deeds, as was narrated in the saheeh ahaadeeth.
May Allah (swt) accept all our deeds! Ameen!

The speaker highlights that Islam provides due rights to women, and raises their status in society, and calls for justice to be defined by the creator of the heavens and the earth. The verses clearly emphasize that women and men should both follow the laws defined by Allah(swt), in order to truly provide justice to both men and women. The speaker touches on current issues such as abortion and sexual harassment faced by women in various countries, and suggests that only the commands of Allah(swt) can bring true justice to all humans, regardless of gender or religion.

On the 28th night of Taraweeh Reflections, the Sheikh discusses the significance of Surah 'Abasa, which was revealed in Mecca during the Makkan era. The verses addressed (Surah 'Abasa - 1-16) an incident where Prophet Muhammad (saw) frowned and turned away from a blind man, Abdullah bin Umm Maktum, who had approached him seeking guidance on Islam.
The Sheikh emphasizes that while the Prophet was not reprimanded for preaching to the leaders of the Quraysh, he was reminded to pay attention to those genuinely seeking knowledge and guidance. He further explains that the Surah serves as a reminder that honor and piety are in the eyes of Allah, and that people should be treated with respect regardless of their wealth, knowledge, or abilities.
The Sheikh also notes that during the early years of Islam, the Prophet often approached people with authority in an attempt to spread the message more easily. He highlights that there is no compulsion in Islam and that individuals have the choice to accept or reject the Deen of Islam.
The Sheikh concludes his reflection by praying for the listeners to gain a deeper understanding of the Quran and to make the most of Ramadan, seeking forgiveness and guidance from Allah(swt).

On the 27th night of Taraweeh Reflections, the Sheik discusses the importance of saving oneself and one's family from the Hellfire, as commanded by Allah (swt) in Surah At-Tahrim Verse 6. The Sheik emphasizes that fulfilling this responsibility goes beyond providing basic needs such as food, shelter, and clothing; it also includes teaching family members about Allah's obligations and prohibitions, as well as enjoining good and forbidding evil.
The Sheik highlights the challenges faced in today's society, where the commands of Allah (swt) are not widely implemented, making it more difficult for believers to save themselves and their families from the Hellfire. However, the Sheik reminds listeners that this responsibility remains doable, and believers must strive to fulfill it by following Allah's commands and guiding their families on the right path.
Additionally, the Sheik also highlights the potential roles of family members, specifically wives and children, who can either be a hindrance to one's obedience to Allah or a source of support in following His commands. In a society that may not encourage following Allah's commands, the Sheik emphasizes the importance of staying vigilant and not becoming hopeless or despaired. They stress the need for individuals and families to engage in shaping society to make it easier for them to obey Allah and protect themselves from the fire.
As we continue to seek Laylat-ul-Qadr(The Night of Power) this Ramadan, let’s seek forgiveness from Allah(swt) and the hope to save not only themselves and their families but also the rest of humankind from the severe punishment.

On the 23rd night of Taraweeh Reflections during Ramadan, the Sheik delves into the thought-provoking verses 33-36 from Surah Fussilat/Ha Meem, emphasizing the importance of calling people towards Allah(swt) and living according to His (swt)commands.
The verses highlight the need to practice what one preaches and avoid hypocrisy. The verses explain how the believers should act with goodness and patience, even in the face of adversity. In this modern era, where the relevance of the Quran is often questioned, these verses remind us that every aspect of the holy text is important and applicable to our lives.
The speaker also delves into the meaning of patience and perseverance in the face of evil or harm, stressing that this does not mean allowing oneself to be mistreated. Instead, it involves continuing to follow Allah's commands and responding to wrongdoing with goodness as defined by Allah.
This approach is not easy, but it is the path to greatness and success in the hereafter. The speaker encourages listeners to resist the whispers of Shaytan, who seeks to deter believers from their mission, and to always act according to the will of Allah, even when facing challenges or opposition.
