May Allah (swt) keep him steadfast upon the deen and increase him in ilm and eman, ameen.

AlMaghrib Institute is offering their class, Divine Link: Fiqh of Salah in Virginia in 2 weeks in sha Allah (God Willing). The class covers all the different details of how to pray and what to do and what not to do.

Sadly nowadays many if not most Muslims do not know the proper way to pray and this is the pillar of the Muslim faith. All over the world Muslims are praying but not praying. Constant confusion has replaced what is supposed to be a calmness of the heart in the prayer. The prayer which is supposed to be beloved to our hearts has become a 5 minute exercise of quick motions and some phrases.

So if you are a Muslim who does not know the proper way to pray, are confused about something, need a refresher or even if you’re a non-Muslim wanting to learn about Islam, I highly recommend you register for this course. I’ve been taking AlMaghrib courses since 2005 and I can definitely say they have helped me in understanding and living Islam to a higher degree and improved my spirituality, alhumdulillah

ENROLL NOW!

July 4th 2009! Mark you calendars for the second annual Journey of Faith Conference in Toronto, Canada! Last year we missed it because we had an AlMaghirb Institute seminar in DC that same weekend but I ordered the entire conference on DVD. But this year in sha Allah we’ll get to see it live, can’t wait to hear all the awesome lectures and speakers! If you live anywhere close to Toronto, I’d say this conference is definitely worth the drive!

Please note this post is not intended for hatred of Shias but just rather to inform and educate the Muslims about their beliefs and how they differ from Sunni Muslims.

A friend sent me a very interesting and comprehensive website that deals with the deviant beliefs of the Shia. SubhanAllah when I browsed the site I was amazed at the large amount of information that is on there concerning the Shia, what they believe and also what the Sunni perspective is regarding them.

So I decided to blog about it because I know that MOST Sunni Muslims and probably many Shias don’t even know what the beliefs of Shias are. And if we were to learn about what they truly believe, subhanAllah its a lot of very disturbing information that really just makes one upset and shocked! So if you don’t know what they believe and want to learn to educate yourself please check out this website and also some of the videos I’ve posted below. The videos give a short glimpse into what the Shias believe, but the website is much more detailed.

If you’re interested in learning more about the Shia:

Sheikh AbdurRahman Dimashqiyyah will be continuing his weekly refutation of the Shi’a in sha Allah every Thursday 10pm UK time on PalTalk. To find the room, change your language to Arabic using the language bar at the top of the room window. Then select the Middle East category, then the Islam category. The room is labeled as “Ansaaru Ahlil Bayt, ‘alayhimus salaam” in Arabic.

May Allah (swt) guide us all to the straight path of Islam, the path of the Prophet Muhammad (sal Allahu alayhi wasallam) and his Companions, ameen!

Well said by Brother AbdurRaheem Green, thumbs up!
