Live In Deen

These are not the attributes of a good Muslim. In this video, Mufti Menk talks about this very important issue.

Between the National Curriculum and Homeschooling Homeschooling parents often talk about the joys of homeschooling their children since they are able to build strong relationships with them and encourage them to develop as individuals. In essence, homeschooling does entail gleeful shrieks while running in fields of bright marigolds, but this does not mean it comes without challenges. Just as families with school-going children face a myriad of challenges on a daily basis, homeschooling families are not spared from chaos, mayhem, tears, and some heartache. But with all the choices that we make, we do face hardships, and the easiest way to resolve this is to turn to Allah for guidance, as He, in His Supremacy, has already promised two eases for each hardship. So, if homeschooling seems up your alley, but at the same time, the alley does not always seem so bright, know that challenges come in all shapes and sizes. And as you educate your children outside of the mainstream...

“I am a Muslim.” How does it feel to say that out loud? Do you rather whisper it? Do you feel the power of this word or do you feel that it makes you weak? Unfortunately, Islam has been negatively portrayed increasingly these past decades, creating a social stigma to be a follower of its path. It’s a fitnah for sure, but let it not discourage you; stand straight and be proud you are a follower of this powerful religion; the religion of Islam . Islam lays a foundation for every aspect in life. It teaches us how to be stronger spiritually, mentally, physically, socially, etc. Allah (SWT) informs us in the Quran:: { By time, indeed, mankind is in loss, except for those who have believed and done righteous deeds and advised each other to truth and advised each other to patience. } ( 103 )   Allah Almighty makes it clear to us in the Quran that we need two keys in this world to open up the doors to paradise in the hereafter; these keys are belief and righteous deeds. What i...

How many paths lead to Paradise? Do all paths lead to God? Even the paths that non-Muslims are on? These questions are easier to answer when we dig into the Arabic words we are reciting in Surah Al-Fatihah, a Surah that we Muslims recite multiple times daily When’s the last time you thought about the actual words you are saying in your prayers? When we contemplate the meanings behind the words, our prayers reach a new level. Learn How to Relate Al-Fatihah to Your Life Let’s take the verse: Sirata Al-Ladhina An`amta `Alayhim . Here we are asking Allah to guide us to the path of those He’s bestowed blessings on. But we are told in the Qur’an, all blessings are from Allah. All of us, even non-Muslims are blessed daily by Allah. Food, air, health are just a few of the many blessings He bestows on us daily. So why are we asking to be put on a path we essentially are already on?  We also ask Allah for Hidayah (guidance) but what exactly are we seeking to be guided on? ...

We cannot talk about youth issues without diving into the topic of friendship. Good friends have greater ability to lift us up and steer us toward righteousness. On the flip side, negative companions can lead us down a dark path, influencing choices with potentially adverse consequences. The Best Of The Companions Are Those Who Are Best To Their Own Companions Where can you connect with like-minded people with shared values? Whether it’s at a local mosque, Islamic center, charity, or community organization, these are spaces where meaningful connections can flourish. Follow the prophetic advice : kindness, patience, courage, honesty, and commitment to truth—these traits light the way in selecting friends who bring out the best in us.
