The Problem With Hustle Culture | Real Talk ft. Dr....

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/12/18

Is hustle culture toxic? Like so much else, it’s a confusing mix of good and bad. Ambition, hard work, and high aspirations are noble, but they need to be kept in perspective. When our goals for the dunya start to outweigh our efforts for the akhirah, or when we push ourselves so hard we burn out, it’s time to stop and ask: Why? In this episode of Real Talk, reflect with Dr. Tesneem Alkiek on why culture pushes us to work so hard and whether that’s really the best way forward.

What if it's Not a Gender War? | Real Talk ft. Dr....

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/12/11

Is Islam defined by men? It’s a question many Muslim women wrestle with—but maybe it’s the wrong question to begin with. Women have played an indispensable role in shaping the Islamic tradition. From hadith transmitters and legal scholars to the teachers of imams, Muslim women were never sidelined by the religion itself—even if some voices have drowned them out. In this episode, Dr. Tesneem Alkiek and host Qaanitah Hunter reframe the conversation, reminding us that while the path forward may ...

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/12/06

Before Salahuddin could unite the Muslim world, earlier leaders had to address deep internal divisions. When radical groups like the Qarmatians stole the Black Stone and extremist factions terrorized scholars, visionaries like Nizam al-Mulk responded by building institutions—the Nizamiyya schools—that would educate the generation of scholars who would guide leaders like Nur al-Din and Salahuddin.

What does it mean when Allah “hits” you with a consequence? The Prophet ﷺ taught that when Allah wants good for a servant, He hastens the purification of their sins in this life. What does that mean for us today?

Dr. Omar Suleiman explores the second defining quality of Ibad ur-Rahman (Servants of the Most Merciful): those who embody forbearance (hilm) and composure when confronted by ignorance or provocation. “When the ignorant address them, they only respond with peace.” — Qur’an 25:63 What does it mean to stay calm when you’re tested? How do we respond to rudeness, mockery, or anger without losing our dignity? Through stories of the Prophet ﷺ and the early believers, Dr. Omar Suleiman reveals tha...

What does it mean to walk the earth lightly? In this opening lecture of the Ibad al-Rahman: Servants of the Most Merciful series, Dr. Omar Suleiman explores the very first quality that Allah attributes to His most beloved servants — humility. “The servants of the Most Merciful are those who walk upon the earth humbly…” — Surah al-Furqan, 25:63 Dr. Omar explains how true faith begins not only in the heart, but appears in the way we move, speak, and carry ourselves. Through reflections on the...

2025/11/14

Of all the ways of Muhāsabah (holding ourselves accountable) this is the most unique. How do we work on ourselves before our own bodies speak on the Day of Judgment. Our limbs, our eyes, our hearing, our tongues, and even our desires are recording every step, every glance, and every word.

How Much Du’a Do You Make for Others? | Khutbah by...

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/11/07

When everyone said “me, me,” the Prophet ﷺ said “my ummah, my ummah.” He cried for his followers and made du‘a for people he never met — including you. The Prophet ﷺ taught us that when you pray for others, angels reply: “Ameen, and for you the same.” So expand your du‘a. Pray for the ummah, for the oppressed, for those who’ll never know your name. When you pray beyond yourself, Allah expands your heart. Watch till the end to learn how the Prophet ﷺ’s example can transform your du’a.

When the test came, the Sahabah didn’t hesitate. Neither did the disciples of Isa (AS). Their devotion wasn’t just words, it was action, sacrifice, and faith. Are we even close to their level of devotion? While we can never be Sahabah, we can discover what it truly means to embody the spirit of those who showed utmost devotion.

In this Gaza Diaries episode, a Palestinian-Australian doctor who volunteered in Gaza recalls paramedics who had to make peace with death, a night when hundreds of injured and dying children filled the hospital wards to overflowing, and a moment that changed a colleague’s worldview as young patients awoke reciting Qur’an. Anchored by his mother’s words—“Death is in Allah’s hands”—Dr. Mohamed Mustafa reflects on intentions, resilience, and why elevating Palestinian voices is the path to re-hum...

Was It Really Worth It? Re-evaluating What We Fight...

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/10/25

One day, everything we chase of wealth, power, or status, will lose its shine. The world will expose what we once thought was worth fighting over, and every argument, betrayal, and war will come down to one question: Was it really worth it? This khutbah is a reflection on how greed and ego blinds us from doing the right thing. From broken homes to global injustice, the pattern is the same: we destroy what’s priceless for what’s temporary.

Lessons To Take From the Past | Khutbah by Dr Omar...

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/10/21

From the Rapture to the Antichrist, religious texts often outline visions of the future. The Qur’an, too, speaks of what’s to come. But Allah ﷻ emphasizes the past—on the stories, lessons, and warnings from history—so that we’re prepared for what lies ahead. Is the past more important than predicting outcomes of the future? Dr. Omar Suleiman answers these questions and more in this khutbah.

When the War Ends: For Gaza and For You | Khutbah by...

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/10/13

We've witnessed calls for a ceasefire before, only to be met with broken promises. While we hope the war is over, in moments like these, we’re reminded that true victory begins not with celebration, but with remembrance. Dhikr before shukr, this was the way of the Prophet ﷺ, who taught us to turn to remembrance after relief, anchoring our gratitude in worship rather than emotion.

From Flotillas to Yajuj & Majuj: How Gaza's Siege...

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/10/06

The flotilla heading toward Gaza is more than a group of ships; it's a united act of resistance with a single goal in mind: end the blockade on Gaza. Ultimately, Allah (swt) decides when justice will come, but we must always keep in mind that change doesn’t come from a single act, it comes from many people moving together with purpose.

In Defense of the Quiet Muslim | Khutbah by Dr. Omar...

Yaqeen Podcast ·

2025/10/02

Not every believer is loud or visible, but many of the most beloved to Allah are the ones you barely notice. The Prophet ﷺ praised the quiet, modest Muslim whose duʿāʾ is accepted, whose service is sincere, and who lives humbly without seeking attention. #BecauseOfMarwan honors a leader who is the heart of the Dallas Muslim community and being unjustly held and persecuted.
