Muharram, another New Year

July 13, 2024 07:07 - 21 minutes - 15 MB

The month of Muharram is a great and blessed month. It is the first month of the Hijri year and is one of the sacred months about which Allahﷻ says: إِنَّ عِدَّةَ ٱلشُّهُورِ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ٱثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا فِى كِتَـٰبِ ٱللَّهِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضَ مِنْهَآ أَرْبَعَةٌ حُرُمٌ ذَٰلِكَ ٱلدِّينُ ٱلْقَيِّمُ Tawbah 9: 36  “Verily,… Continue reading Muharram, another New Year The post Muharram, another New Year appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We ca...

How to beat sadness

July 07, 2024 00:24 - 23 minutes - 16.4 MB

Last week I told you that Allahﷻ prohibited sadness. That sounds unreasonable and you may say, ‘I don’t want to feel sad. But I do. So, why is sadness prohibited?’ We are conditioned to see emotions as ‘good’ or ‘bad’, ‘positive’ or ‘negative’. The reality is that emotions are value neutral. They are neither positive… Continue reading How to beat sadness The post How to beat sadness appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We came to give, not to take..

It’s my Life

June 29, 2024 20:04 - 25 minutes - 17.4 MB

We live in a paradoxical world. We are knowledgeable about the earth but are burning it up at a pace which is out of control. We are knowledgeable about health but disease, especially mental illness is in rampant proportions. We collectively have enormous wealth, but its distribution ensures that vast populations are deprived, even starving,… Continue reading It’s my Life The post It’s my Life appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We came to give, not to take..

Don’t be sad

June 24, 2024 02:37 - 23 minutes - 15.9 MB

My brothers and sisters, we are living in difficult times which are testing us in ways that at least I had never imagined. On the one hand Allahﷻ has kept us and our families safe and well in this land. On the other hand, we are seeing every day what is happening to Muslims and… Continue reading Don’t be sad The post Don’t be sad appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We came to give, not to take..

Hajj – A Journey of Love

June 16, 2024 02:43 - 24 minutes - 16.8 MB

He was Khaleelullah. And Allahﷻ loved him, so He tested him. In each test, by the help of Allahﷻ, he proved true to his Covenant with Allahﷻ. So, Allahﷻ gave him the job of building His House, the Ka’aba. Allahﷻ said: وَإِذْ بَوَّأْنَا لِإِبْرَٰهِيمَ مَكَانَ ٱلْبَيْتِ أَن لَّا تُشْرِكْ بِى شَيْـًٔا وَطَهِّرْ بَيْتِىَ لِلطَّآئِفِينَ وَٱلْقَآئِمِينَ… Continue reading Hajj – A Journey of Love The post Hajj – A Journey of Love appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We came ...

Joy of Submission

June 01, 2024 19:33 - 22.4 MB

The most important thing in life is not wealth or knowledge or even action. It is attitude. With the right attitude, you can create wealth, acquire knowledge and find the motivation to act. Without it you may have wealth, fame, influence, and knowledge but you despair. Just look for celebrity suicides on Google and you… Continue reading Joy of Submission The post Joy of Submission appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We came to give, not to take..

There are several ways to guide. The most reliable way is to give the person a compass to find direction, a map with details of the route and a guide to take them to their destination. That is what Allahﷻ did. He gave us the compass, the Qur’an, a map, the Sunnah, and the guide,… Continue reading The position of Rasoolullahﷺ in Islam – 4 The post The position of Rasoolullahﷺ in Islam – 4 appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We came to give, not to take..

The position of Rasoolullahﷺ in Islam – 3

May 11, 2024 21:12 - 18 minutes - 12.7 MB

All knowledge begins with Adab – an attitude of respect for knowledge and everything and everyone related to it. Adab is like the preparation of the soil for planting. Without preparation the best seed will perish. So also with knowledge, especially the knowledge of Islam. Without Adab we may get the words, but never the… Continue reading The position of Rasoolullahﷺ in Islam – 3 The post The position of Rasoolullahﷺ in Islam – 3 appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - W...

The opposite of knowledge is not ignorance but the illusion of knowledge. Ignorance which is recognized is a blessing because the person then seeks to dispel it by learning. But the illusion of knowledge produces arrogance which shuts the door to learning and greases the slide into Jahannam. As happened for the first time when… Continue reading Position of Rasoolullahﷺ in Islam The post Position of Rasoolullahﷺ in Islam appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We came to ...

Remember the Standard

April 22, 2024 02:48 - 17 minutes - 11.9 MB

There are two ways to lead our lives. The way we want and the way Allahﷻ wants for us. Whichever way we choose, we will be held accountable for it when we die. The issue with living the way we want is that our knowledge is limited, and our desires rule us.

Ramadan comes to help us to become Muttaqoon and become eligible for all the promises of Allahﷻ. That process begins with Istighfaar and Tawba. فَٱسْتَغْفِرُوهُ ثُمَّ تُوبُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِ إِنَّ رَبِّى قَرِيبٌ مُّجِيبٌ Hud 11: 61    So seek His forgiveness and turn to Him in repentance.

The purpose of fasting is not to fast but to transform our lives and put ourselves on the path of success in this world and the next.  Ramadan comes to reset our standard, the criterion of what has value and what doesn’t.

Ramadan is the month of self-reflection and introspection with the intention of getting our lives back on track. Our life is a journey which we hope will end in Jannah.

My brothers and sisters, in another day or two we will enter Ramadan. The question I ask myself and you is, will we enter Ramadan or will we allow Ramadan to enter us? If we enter Ramadan then on the 1st of Shawwal, we will exit Ramadan.

Justice and Ihsaan

We hear this Ayah in every Jumu’ah Khutba in practically every masjid on the face of the earth. Let us focus on just two words in it – Al Adl wal Ihsaan. إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِٱلْعَدْلِ وَٱلْإِحْسَـٰنِ وَإِيتَآئِ ذِى ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ وَيَنْهَىٰ عَنِ ٱلْفَحْشَآءِ وَٱلْمُنكَرِ وَٱلْبَغْىِ يَعِظُكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ Nahl 16: 90   Indeed, Allah commands justice,… Continue reading Justice and Ihsaan The post Justice and Ihsaan appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We...

Allahﷻ gave us a purpose of existence which is given to the highest in any society – to guide and show the way.

What distinguishes people who never experienced subjugation from those with a collective memory of empire and subjugation, is their willingness to speak up, fight for their rights and to pay for what they enjoy, while the others only complain but do nothing to change the situation. This is the ‘learned helplessness’ of people whose bodies… Continue reading The Way Forward – Part 7 The post The Way Forward – Part 7 appeared first on Mahmood Habib Masjid and Islamic Centre - We came to give, ...

Most of us are historically illiterate and our cherry-picking approach to history ensures illiteracy.

History teaches one critical lesson: Only those who contribute are valued. Only they have leverage, are influential, and have power. Their religion or ethnicity doesn’t matter.
