Quran in a Year+ (with Imam Saif Morad) ·

2025/12/06

In this episode, we explore the justice and mercy of Allah in how He guides, warns, and never holds anyone accountable without clarity. We look at how hearts drift into loss through ignorance, cultural influence, and the beautification of evil, and how knowledge becomes the anchor that protects the soul from misguidance. We then reflect on the Name of Allah, al-Ghani — the One free of need — and what it means for a servant to rely on Him completely and trust the reality of du‘a, even when answers

Day 96- Faith Makes You Alive! | An'am 122-130

Quran in a Year+ (with Imam Saif Morad) ·

2025/12/05

In this episode, we explore how Allah contrasts the one brought to life by faith with the one lost in darkness, and how corrupt voices gain influence in every society. We look at the role of powerful elites, the spiritual laws behind guidance and misguidance, and how Allah opens or constricts the heart based on a person’s choices. These verses take us from the rise of false leaders to the gathering of humans and jinn on the Day of Judgment, where each soul admits the truth it once denied.Support

Day 95- Clarity in a World of Confusion | An'am 111-121

Quran in a Year+ (with Imam Saif Morad) ·

2025/12/04

In this episode, we explore how most people build their beliefs on assumptions, emotions, and trends rather than truth, and why real guidance begins with wanting what Allah wants, not demanding signs or comfort. We uncover how shayateen from humans and jinn use decorated speech to make falsehood appear beautiful, and how inward sins distort our ability to recognize guidance. When a believer understands the harm of sin and the justice of revelation, leaving disobedience becomes a conscious choice

2025/12/03

This episode invites us to pause and recognize the One who creates every detail of our world and manages every stage of our lives with perfect wisdom. From the growth of a single fruit to the movement of the heavens, Allah shows us signs that lead the heart to know Him and ultimately to worship Him. The Qur’an teaches us not to follow blindly, but to reflect, seek proof, and stand on truth. It teaches us to engage others with wisdom, avoid actions that shut the doors of guidance, and guard our own

This episode explores what it truly means to honor Allah: to know our purpose, know our Lord, and take His revelation seriously. We learn from the scholars how denying guidance is an accusation against Allah’s wisdom, and how the Qur’an becomes the believer’s light, grounding the heart in clarity and certainty. Finally, we look at the signs Allah placed in creation — the seed, the light, the order of the universe — and ask ourselves: if He is the One who manages everything, then where am I turning,

In this episode, we explore Ibrahim’s confidence as he declares his worship of Allah with clarity, knowing only Allah controls harm and benefit. Through insights from Al Tabari, Razi, and Ibn Ashur, we learn how he challenged false beliefs, protected his tawhid, and stood firm even when it cost him his family and community. Allah later replaced what he lost with something far better. We end with the Quranic call to follow the path of the prophets, reminding us that true success comes from knowing

These verses take us through a journey of seeing truth clearly. Allah shows us signs in different ways, yet many still choose to turn away. The messengers bring good news to those who believe and sincere warnings to those who reject. The Qur’an reminds us that real honor comes from Allah, not wealth or status, and that the poor and sincere believers were the ones Allah defended.

Verses 33-44 reveal how Allah comforted His Prophet when rejection felt heavy. People were not truly denying him; they were denying the signs of Allah, held back by pride, stubbornness, and inner barriers. Allah reminds him that every messenger before him faced the same pattern of denial, patience, and eventual support, and that guidance rests with Allah alone. The Prophet is taught to give the message with sincerity and leave the outcome to the One who controls hearts.The passage then shifts to

2025/11/26

In verses 19 to 32 of Surah Al An’am, Allah commands the Prophet to declare that Allah Himself is the greatest witness to the truth. These verses expose the falsehood of shirk, the denial of revelation, and the refusal of the mushrikun to accept the resurrection. Allah shows how their excuses collapse on the Day of Judgment, how their false gods abandon them, and how regret will not benefit them. The passage ends by reminding us that worldly life is only play and distraction, while the Hereafter is

True success is not power or comfort, but using the intellect to recognize the certainty of the Day of Judgment and the meaning Allah placed in our lives.We also learn that no false protector can guide us — not people, trends, or “the universe.” Only Allah owns all things, controls harm and benefit, and knows

In today’s verses we see how Allah shapes both the heart and the mind of the believer. We learn the balance of love, hope, and fear that moves us toward Him, and why good and bad are never the same no matter how appealing the wrong path looks. Allah calls the people of sound intellect to see beneath appearances, choose the pure path, and recognize true success.
