Ramadan 2016 - Surat al-Baqarah - Day 12

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves into an explicit lecture dealing with the most well-known story in history which is that of Adam AS - the story of the apple. This is to educate us amply well before delving into the further Ayats of Surah Al Baqarah. Islam provides us with the astonishing details of the creation of Adam AS. Both Christian and Jewish traditions are remarkably similar yet importantly different from the Quran. Why is this ancient tale important, and what does the Quranic story of Adam...

Ramadan 2016 - Surat al-Baqarah - Day 11

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves into a detailed analysis of Ayats 28 and 29 of the remarkable Surah Al Baqarah. Ayah 28 commences by expressing surprise at those who insist on being ungrateful to Allah SWT and denying Him. The disbelievers had never denied Allah SWT rather only the Prophet ﷺ. But the Qur’an places such a denial in the same category as the denial of Allah SWT Himself. The Ayah reminds man that once he was “dead” or that he had no life. Allah SWT made us into a man and gave us life....

Ramadan 2016 - Surat al-Baqarah - Day 10

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delivers an amazing lecture that sheds light on Ayats number 26,27 and 28 of the esteemed Surah Al Baqarah. In ayah number 26, Allah SWT stated that He does not shy away or hesitate from, giving an example of anything, whether the example involves a significant or an insignificant matter. The mosquito lives as long as it needs food, but when it gets fat, it dies. This is also the example of people whom Allah mentioned in the Qur’an: when they acquire (and collect the delig...

Ramadan 2016 - Surat al-Baqarah - Day 8

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves into an elaborate explanation into some of the Ayats of Surah Al Baqarah. In Ayat number 21, “O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous.” In the above Ayah, Allah SWT mentions His Oneness in Divinity and stated that He has favored His servants by bringing them to life after they did not exist. Taqwa in this Ayah means ‘protect’ yourself. To summarise, this Ayah is a call to all of mankind to emphasize on the On...

Ramadan 2016 - Surat al-Baqarah - Day 7

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves into an understanding of Ayats 17 onwards of Surah Al Baqarah. In these Ayaah, we understand hypocrisy( Nifaq) with more examples. Allah SWT has described everything with examples in the Quran. The lessons that can be imbibed from these Ayahs are: No one can guide or help a person, who does not seek help from Allah. A hypocrite cannot imitate others in guidance due to being blind to the truth. The Munafiqeen are a lost cause and are blocked off from guidance in ever...

Ramadan 2016 - Surat al-Baqarah - Day 6

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves into Ayats 12 and forward from Surah Al Baqarah. In Ayat number 12, the main address is to the hypocrites. When they are told not to cause mischief on the earth they say, “We are peacemakers”. Allah SWT confirms in this Ayah, that hypocrites (Munafiqeen) think that they are reformers but they have lost the ability to perceive. By their blind arrogance, they suppress the good and encourage evil. Since they are so obviously ignorant, the hypocrites are unaware of thei...

Ramadan 2016 - Surat al-Baqarah - Day 5

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves into a detailed Tafseer of some of the Ayats of Surah Al Baqarah. In Ayat 9, the hypocrites are being discussed at great length in the fact that in the company of the believers, the hypocrites would pretend to be pious Muslims, but the moment they were asked to do something for the sake of Allah SWT such as performing an act of worship, giving charity, or going on Jihad, they would back out. This is an indication of their total ignorance. But they didn't realize tha...

Ramadan 2016 - Surat al-Baqarah - Day 4

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan delves into the topic of Nifaq ( hypocrisy) and the Munafiqoon in Ayats 8 and 9 of Surah Al Baqarah. The hypocrites have been described exhaustively in Surah at-Tawbah (chapter 9), Surah an-Nur (chapter 24), Surah al-Munafiqoon (chapter 63) and other Surahs as well so that their description would be known and their ways and errors could be avoided. Allah SWT talks about the hypocrites as those who claim Iman by their tongues, but in their hearts they conceal disbelief. All...

Ramadan 2016 - Surat al-Baqarah - Day 3

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan gives an awesome lecture on some of the Ayats of the esteemed Surah Al Baqarah. Allah SWT is describing the attributes of pure disbelievers in these Ayahs where He shows the reality of people who refused Muhammad ﷺ and his message. The Prophet ﷺ sincerely desired guidance for them and was worried about them and tried his best to decorate their lives with Islam. Allah SWT says to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ that it does not matter if Muhammad ﷺ had warned them or not, they would...

In the Ayats discussed here, the people of Iman believe in what Allah SWT sent them with, and in what the previous Messengers AS were sent with. They neither distinguish between them nor do they reject what they were sent with from Allah SWT. They believe in all of the...

Honoring Prophet Muhammad PBUH

There are different ways in which we can acknowledge the great status of the final Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam), but in my personal and humble opinion, there is no greater praise of Allah’s Messenger than the Word of Allah itself. The way Allah describes His Messenger (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam), the way He Himself honors the Messenger, is unparalleled. No human bring can come close to praising Allah’s Mesenger, to honoring Allah’s Messenger, than Allah Himself. This le...
