Ep.2 – Qur‘an: the foundation for Revival

Allah (swt) said: ˹Consider, O Prophet,˺ the Day We will call against every faith-community a witness of their own. And We will call you to be a witness against these ˹people of yours˺. We have revealed to you the Book as an explanation of all things, a guide, a mercy, and good news for those who ˹fully˺ submit. And the address of Allah (swt) to those who did not learn and appreciate its content, He (swt) related them to Donkeys who bear and carry goods on their backs but do not take advantages and benefits from the burden that they bear. "The example of those who were entrusted with ˹observing˺ the Torah but failed to do so, is that of a donkey carrying books. How evil is the example of those who reject Allah’s signs! For Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people" For Us Muslims, The Quran is the guidepost and the fundamental reference point and It is what defines and regulates life for us. Allah (swt) said : "All living beings roaming the earth and winged birds soaring in the sky are communities like yourselves. We have left nothing out of the Record. Then to their Lord they will be gathered all together" The Quran is what lead a group of people living in the deserts of Arabia to be the most revived and loftiest of the People. ’Umar bin Al-Khattab (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Verily, Allah elevates some people with this Qur’an and abases others.” In this Podcast our discussion revolves around the following subjects – How do we take the Quran as a basis for revival and upliftment of the Ummah ? Did Foreign ideas affect and influence Islamic Uloom (Sciences) and how did the Ulama (scholars) dealt with it? How the Islamic Uloom (sciences) were sythesised to serve the Quran? We join Shaykh Shuayb Wani to discuss these issues. Follow us on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/Daralilminst Website: daralilm.org

Ep.1 - The Crisis (أزمة) of Understanding

We today are going through a crisis and our efforts to reform and bring change and revival are being wasted between Imitation and Neglect. In our approach of understanding Islam, on one hand, we have Imitation manifested in the form of Literalism, Extremism, and Reductionism, and on the other, we have Neglect which is manifested in the ideas of Pragmatism, Modernism, Progressive Approach among a few. For some Islam is not relevant anymore today and so there have even been calls for a fundamental re-interpretation of the Islamic texts. We also observe that Contemporary Muslim behavior and practice is based on a reductionist reading of the texts and a simplistic understanding of reality. As a result, we are unable to produce solutions guided by the light of Wahy’ (Revelation) and based on the correct understanding of reality. However, let us remember the Address of Allah (swt) for us, He addressed as being the Best Ummah, Just and Balanced in its approach and a nation that is witness of truth over all of mankind. Allah (swt) says in the Holy Quran: "You are the best community ever raised for humanity—you encourage good, forbid evil, and believe in Allah" "And so We have made you ˹believers˺ a just nation so that you may be witnesses over humanity and that the Messenger may be a witness over you" Therefore, the ideal that we need to achieve is to be a Ummatan Wasata, particularly in our Understanding, Methodology, and Approach so that the efforts are not wasted between two extremes. But How can we attain the position of being Ummatan Wasat? And What Crisis are we referring to? How are our efforts being wasted between Imitation and Neglect? How can we reform our understanding of Islam and achieve Revival i.e Tajdeed? We join Sheikh Shuayb Wani to discuss these issues.
