Iqbal’s Fear, Humility, and Devotion – Dr. Israr Ahmed

In this deep and heart-touching reminder, Dr. Israr Ahmed reflects on the extraordinary humility, fear of accountability, and devotion found in the poetry of Allama Iqbal. Unlike self-praise or spiritual arrogance, Iqbal’s words reflect a soul trembling before Allah and His Messenger ﷺ. Through this powerful Persian poem, Iqbal turns inward—fearing that if his words contain anything other than the Qur’an, if his influence is mixed with ego, or if his message misleads the Ummah, then he deserves humiliation rather than honor. This is not despair, but the highest form of sincerity (ikhlas). Dr. Israr Ahmed explains how this mindset represents the true spirit of Islamic leadership and scholarship: Fear of misguiding the Ummah Discomfort with fame and influence Willingness to be erased if the message is not pure A profound reminder for speakers, writers, callers to Deen—and anyone seeking Allah’s pleasure over recognition. ور بحرفم غیر قرآن مضمر استای فروغت صبح اعصار و دہورچشم تو بینندۂ ما فی الصدورپردۂ ناموس فکرم چاک کناین خیابان را ز خارم پاک کنتنگ کن رخت حیات اندر برماہل ملت را نگہدار از شرمسبز کشت نابسامانم مکنبہرہ گیر از ابر نیسانم مکنخشک گردان بادہ در انگور منزہر ریز اندر مے کافور منروز محشر خوار و رسوا کن مرابی نصیب از بوسۂ پا کن مرا مفہوم:اگر میرے دل کا آئینہ جوہروں سے خالی ہے، اگر میری باتوں میں قرآن کے سوا کچھ بھی شامل ہے، تو اے رسول ﷺ! میری فکر کا پردہ چاک کر دیجئے۔ اگر میری باتیں بے اثر ہو جائیں، اگر میں قیامت کے دن رسوا ہو جاؤں—یہ سب قبول ہے، بس شرط یہ ہے کہ میں امت کو نقصان نہ پہنچاؤں۔ #AllamaIqbal #DrIsrarAhmed #Ikhlas #IslamicThought #FearOfAllah #ExploreOurDeen #Reminder #QuranCentered #HumilityInIslam

If Fate is Predetermined Then Where is Our Freewill

In life, sometimes after making a choice, we feel, “If only I had done this, I would have benefited.” This feeling shows that we recognize our free will because true compulsion (jabr) means no other possibility exists. This natural feeling is not an illusion. Sometimes, it feels like the fault wasn’t ours but the circumstances, and anyone in such a situation would have done the same. Here, we accept compulsion. Philosophers who examine these two feelings together get puzzled because only one outcome can actually happen. Both feelings are correct but from different perspectives—one ignores circumstances, the other ignores our choice. Some philosophers support a view called compatibilism, which reconciles fate and free will (see Frankfurt’s arguments). Religion teaches us to understand and use these two feelings appropriately at different times, validating both with full meaning. The religious narrative embraces the complex human experience of free will and destiny. Note: This topic is extensive, and a short post may not do it justice. For deeper understanding, read Syed Maududi’s book Mas’alah Jabr-o-Qadr (Problem of Compulsion and Predestination).

Don't Show off Your Good Deeds – Rayakari (Dikhawa)

In Islam, sincerity (ikhlas) is the essence of every good deed. This reminder warns against Rayakari—doing good just to show others. When we seek praise from people instead of the pleasure of Allah, even our best actions lose their value in His sight. Surah An-Najm (53:32)"So do not claim yourselves to be pure; He is most knowing of who fears Him." بیان القرآن – ڈاکٹر اسرار احمد"اپنے نفس کی پاکی کے دعوے نہ کرو، وہی بہتر جانتا ہے کہ واقعتاً متقی کون ہے..." True taqwa lives in the heart, not in outward displays. Often, those who shout the loudest about their piety are hiding emptiness within. This talk by Dr. Israr Ahmed reminds us that real righteousness needs no audience—only Allah's approval. #ExploreOurDeen #DrIsrarAhmed #MolanaMoududi #Reminder #Rayakari #Ikhlas #Taqwa #MolanaIshaq #Dikhawa #IslamicCharacter

Love of Anything More Than The Love of Allah - Reminder

Many Muslims today unknowingly place people, desires, careers, or status above their love for Allah ﷻ. This reminder highlights how such misplaced priorities can weaken our faith and disconnect us from our true purpose. When anything becomes more important than Allah in our hearts, it becomes a form of hidden shirk. This talk revives the call to put Allah first, above all else—because true peace and success come only through loving and obeying Him. "O you who believe! Let not your wealth or your children divert you from the remembrance of Allah..." (Qur'an 63:9) #LoveForAllah #Reminder #ExploreOurDeen #MolanaMoududi #DrIsrarAhmed #Tazkiyah #IslamicReminders #PrioritiesInIslam #UmmahAwakening

Satanic Whispers | Khalid Mehmood Abbasi × Dr Israr Ahmad × Molana Moududi

In this deep and eye-opening reminder, Khalid Mehmood Abbasi, Dr. Israr Ahmad, and Molana Moududi uncover the dangerous and subtle ways in which Shaytan (Satan) whispers into our hearts and minds.

This talk also highlights the importance of constant self-check, sincere dhikr, and seeking Allah’s protection. A powerful reminder that the battle against Shaytan is daily—and victory lies in awareness, knowledge, and a heart connected to Allah. #SatanicWhispers #Waswasah #ProtectYourIman #DrIsrarAhmad #MolanaMoududi #KhalidAbbasi #ExploreOurDeen #SpiritualAwareness
