Billionaires and Migrants- The Islamic Perspective in the Days of Dhul Hijjah

Join the Sheik as he reminds of the virtutes of sacred ten days of Dhul Hijjah. Yet, amidst this spiritual journey of Hajj, we are also reminded of the stark realities of our world today for the response of two tragedies- the capsizing of an immigrant boat carrying hundreds of individuals who were seeking refuge, attempting to escape their dire conditions, and the loss of life of five billionaires in a submarine looking for adventure. Both incidents culminated in the final decree by Allah(swt). Both incidents present us contrasting realities on the response of our world today. This stark reality obligates us, as decreed by Allah (swt), to NOT merely understand the reality but to actively engage in seeking and implementing solutions for the betterment of all humanity.

Islam has given us a road map to navigate through our lives in order to succeed both in Dunya and Akhirah. We must always abide by the hukm sharai’(devine rule) in all aspects of our lives. One of the principal objectives in our commitment to this website is to provide tools from the authentic sources of Islam (Qur’an & Sunnah) to develop our Islamic Personality. Maintaining the correct Islamic Personality is vital for a Muslim to be able to avoid deviation from the right path stay strong on the path that seeks pleasure from Allah (سبحانه و تعالى ). Secondly, as Muslims living in our communities, we interact with non-Muslims on a daily basis whether at work, university, school or in society at large. It is incorrect for us to cut ourselves completely from our non-Muslim society and live in isolation. We hope inha’Allah this website provides the correct tools for building relationships with non-Muslims in order to give them da’wah to embrace Islam. It is important to always remind ourselves that our purpose in this life is to carry Islam to humanity and show them the right path thereby achieving the pleasure of Allah (سبحانه و تعالى ). Insha’Allah, with the help of Allah (سبحانه و تعالى ) and our efforts we hope to advance our readers and our own understanding and carrying Islam to others.
