AL-MAQASID WEEKLY | FEBRUARY 19, 2024
﷽
Allah ﷻ says, We have sent you ˹O Prophet˺ only as a deliverer of good news and a warner to all of humanity, but most people do not know. [Quran 34:28]
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has also said, "Convey on my behalf, even if only one verse." [Bukhari]
We are pleased to invite you to Al-Maqasid's Annual Benefit Dinner, Living the Prophetic Concern. Continuing to root sacred knowledge within these lands requires a deep appreciation for the Prophetic duty to convey this message to all of humanity. We are honored to host Dr. Shadee Elmasry as our keynote speaker for the evening.
Date: March 2, 2024
Time: 3:30pm - 6:30pm
Venue: Al-Maqasid Campus (Macungie, PA)
Please join us as we reflect on the milestones of the past year and discuss ways to collectively actualize our long term vision of the realization of Iman, Islam, and Ihsan. We deeply appreciate your prayers and continued support, and hope that you can join us for what we hope will be a very blessed occasion.
Alhamdulillah, we were honored to have our beloved teacher, Imam Zaid Shakir, visit Al-Maqasid this past weekend. Imam Zaid participated in "Heart to Heart" with Ustadh Amjad Tarsin and also attended our weekly Burda gathering.
We are eternally grateful for the opportunity to benefit from our teachers. May Allah protect him and benefit us by him.
This weekly Majlis includes a recitation of the prophetic biography in poetry form followed by a counsel intended to connect the listener to the Prophet ﷺ and his teachings. The more we know about his life, character, and way, the more we will come to love and follow the one beloved to Allah.
Being with the Righteous - Yahya Rhodus
“Our teachers don’t give up on anyone.”
Having a Good Opinion of Allah - Imam Rasul Suluki
لا حَوْلَ وَلا قُوَّةَ إِلا باللَّهِ
There is no might and no power except by Allah
Being Loyal to the Prophet ﷺ - amjad tarsin
We have to submit to and accept everything that the messenger came with. All of salvation, success, honor, and rewards are found in that.
The weekly Jumu'a, or Friday, Congregational prayer is live streamed from Al-Maqasid from 12:15pm-1:10pm.
How Should We Be In Sha’ban - Amjad Tarsin
“It is as if you are ingesting a lethal poison when you disobey Allah ﷻ - it is like you are running into a burning building without any intention of leaving when you disobey obey Allah.”
Our beloved Prophet ﷺ was asked why he fasted so much in Sha’ban and he mentioned it was a month that many people neglected. In this khutba, Amjad Tarsin discusses what Muslims should be doing during this month, including the greatest thing that one can do.
The Most Generous - Habib uMAr bin hafiz
