This clip contains a discussion of some important issues related to the pre-dawn meal (suhoor), including an answer to the question: Can I eat after the adhan for fajr is called?

Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took hold of his hand and said, “By Allah, I love you, Mu'adh! So I advise you to never abandon saying at the end of every prayer: “O Allah, help me remember You, be grateful to You, and worship You excellently.” [Abu Dawud]

Ali reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to him, “Say, ‘O Allah, guide me and make me upright.’ When you mention guidance, keep in mind the right path and when you mention being upright, keep in mind the straightness of the arrow.

There are four ayaat in the Qur'an directly pertinent to Ramadan, and they are mentioned in one passage in Surah al-Baqarah. In the middle of these ayaat that talk about the rulings of fasting, there is an ayah that encourages us to call upon Allah. The significance of that ayah and the importance of making du'aa in this blessed month of Ramadan is examined in this clip.

This clip examines the notion that everyone can abandon prohibited acts. The speaker mentions that refraining from your desires requires hard work, and then discusses some of the things that may help you be a better servant of Allah. The clip is taken from the explanation of Hadith 09 entitled, "Obligations are According to Ability…"

This clip covers the beautiful story of the mother of Abu Hurairah's reversion to Islam. The clip is taken from the explanation of Hadith 09 entitled, "Obligations are According to Ability…"

Is it okay for me to pick and choose what we want to do in Islam and leave the rest?! This clip answers that question and covers some important principles related to ability.

The Sheikh gives advice about the second ten days of Ramadan.

This clip covers the pertinent question, should we fight the non Muslims? The speaker covers the four categories of non-Muslims and the ruling of each of them respectively. The clip is taken from the explanation of Hadith 08 entitled, "I have been commanded to fight the people…"

This clip discusses the different scenarios of fasting while traveling, including a look at some of the hadith on this topic that are often misunderstood.

“In regards to suhoor, is it considered makrooh to eat right until the athaan or is it just preferable to stop five minutes before?” This clip addresses that question and also looks at how to properly understand the statement of the Prophet (ﷺ), “…so eat and drink until Ibn Umm Maktoom calls the athaan.”

A slip of the tongue occurs at 5 mins 40 secs, “For good wheat, a mudd is approximately two kilos and forty grams.” This was clarified when a question was asked, as the intention was a saa', not a mudd.

Are we truly commanded to kill non- Muslims? Before we go around telling our siblings, friends, relatives that the Prophet s.a.w. instructed us to kill, read the Quran and hadith carefully. Understand the words used in the Hadith - it says 'fight'. But it's been interpreted by many to read 'kill'. Do not redefine what Islam is but look for the proper interpretation and apply that. That is what Sheikh Tahir informs us in this almost eight minute talk.

This is a khutbah giving by our brother, Shaykh Tahir Wyatt, may Allah (سبحانه و تعالى‎) increase him in good, ameen. Brothers and sisters, please keep in mind what a splendid opportunity this is to have our first ever Westerner/American ever to have a chair in the Prophet's Honorable Masjid, wa la haw la wa la qew wata ill la bill lah. This Khutbah is about getting the best out of the Holy Month of Ramadan. He also speaks about the Virtue of the Qur'an and how a Muslims life should revolve around the Qur'an.

A highly informative lecture given by Dr. Tahir Wyatt last summer at the UMM Masjid in South Philly. We ask Allah to allow benefit to be taken from it.
