Back-to-Basics: Legislated Worship
The forms of worship in which people engage in their journey to Allaah are of two kinds: one form is approved by Allaah and His Messenger and the other form is not.
Those that Allaah and His Messenger approve of are things such as salah, fasting, reading the Qur'an, praying in the night, giving charity, etc.
Let's return to our spiritual practices and leave off what is not from the deen.

Reflecting on the Battle of ‘Uhud
Recently, while reading and reflecting over Surah Al-'Imran, Allaah allowed me to connect with those ayat detailing the Battle of ‘Uhud and the actions of the Muslims. While our battles may look differently than theirs, we should be able to see the similarities and learn the lessons.
Update 06/24/2023: Subhan Allaah! I realized that I mislabeled this episode originally. It was labeled referencing The Battle of Badr instead of The Battle of Uhud! My apologies! I have made the change in the title! Truly Allaah alone is Perfect and without mistakes!

Boundaries
We’re discussing what is meant by the term “boundaries,” where boundaries come from, and as Muslims, how we can benefit from boundaries in our own lives as well as in our dawah to others.
