Did you benefit from the diseases of the heart series?
Alhamdulillah, we’ve just completed the first half of the Tazkiyah program “The Sound Heart” which was all about the diseases of the heart - and thousands of you have already begun purifying your hearts through it.
But purification is only the beginning.
Now it’s time to beautify.
The second half of the program starts tomorrow at 3pm UK time.
In this second half we begin exploring the Maqāmāt - which are higher stations of the heart that strengthen your relationship with Allah ﷻ and improve your character so that you become more like the Prophets.
This part will not be on YouTube. To access it, you need to join Muslim Lighthouse.
Even if you can’t make the live sessions, all recordings will be available to watch anytime.
If you benefitted from the first half…
You don’t want to miss the second. It’s essential for every Muslim.
Want to stop certain sins? Heal from certain traumas? Connect with Allah ﷻ like never before? Improve your character?
All of that is achieved through the science of Tazkiyah.
And the book we’ll be covering (مطهرة القلوب) in this program has been described by the scholars as the only book you need for the science of Tazkiyah.
Lots of incredible & transformative knowledge to be gained. Be prepared to apply what you learn.
With Ramadan just around the corner, I'll be conducting a series of lessons of the Fiqh of Fasting to great depth, inshaAllah. The aim is to equip you with the knowledge to answer all the questions you have, but also so that you can help others with their questions too.
The rulings are from the advanced scholarly text 'As-halul Masalik' which is from the Maliki Madhab. If you do not know anything about Madhabs or you are of a different Madhab, don't worry. I'll explain exactly what they are and why you can benefit from them even if you are of a different Madhab in the first lesson.
Alhamdulillah, receiving this plaque in the post was both a moment of gratitude and reflection—very bittersweet. While it’s heartening to see the Deen of Allah ﷻ spread beautifully, it also reminded me of the Hadith where the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:
إِنَّمَا الْأَعْمَالُ بِالنِّيَّاتِ "Verily, actions are judged by their intentions."
This Hadith is actually very scary. You could be doing what seems to be the best and most rewarding of actions, but if your intention is flawed, those actions could mean nothing in the eyes of Allah ﷻ —or, even worse, become a source of punishment.
That’s why the Prophet ﷺ warned us that the first person to enter the Hellfire will be a scholar of Islam. Why? Because he sought knowledge for the praise of people, to be known by them and be referred to as a ‘Shaykh’ - rather than doing it sincerely for Allah.
No matter what path we choose in life, we must constantly check and purify our intentions so that everything we do in this world is solely for Allah’s ﷻ sake. The reality is that we came from Allah ﷻ, we must live for Allah ﷻ, and we will ultimately return to Allah ﷻ to be held accountable for our actions—and their intentions.
قُلْ إِنَّ صَلَاتِى وَنُسُكِى وَمَحْيَاىَ وَمَمَاتِى لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ "Surely my prayer, my sacrifice, my life, and my death are all for Allah—Lord of all worlds." (6:162)
Join us in our new program that will teach you the rulings of the prayer comprehensively from the advanced Maliki book Ashalul Masalik. You’ll become very well versed in all rulings to do with prayer inshaAllah.
It doesn’t matter if you’re not a Maliki - navigating difference of opinion will be discussed in the first class.
Muslim Lighthouse student meetup hosted by Simply Smashed may Allah ﷻ reward them.
In this session we took a deep dive into the Tafsir of Surah Kahf.
Muslim Lighthouse isn’t just an online learning platform. We make sure to host annual events so that our students have a chance to truly connect with the people they’ve been seeing online throughout the year whilst studying. It also gives them a chance to meet their teacher.
These events have proven to recharge the batteries and provide great motivation in seeking more knowledge.
Next Muslim Lighthouse event is going to be a Umrah trip in February insha’Allah!
Why not be part of our beautiful community and potentially come to Umrah with us too?
Super excited to announce that I’m starting a new cohort of the Illuminate program.
This program is for those who feel lost about their Deen and really need direction and clarity on where to start and what to do to reconnect.
This program will rejuvenate your Iman, give you the A-Z on how your daily life should look like as a Muslim, and provide you clear action steps to make sure you NEVER slip back to your current state ever again. All I require of you is 3 months.
This program is split into 3 phases.
PHASE 1: Illuminating your mind (giving you important knowledge, building you from the very foundations)
PHASE 2: Illuminating your heart (applying your knowledge practically to begin the process of real transformation)
PHASE 3: Illuminating others (teaching you how to give back to your friends, family and community so that you transform them just as you have been transformed)
There will be action points to complete every week and an exam for each phase. Slides provided too.
There will also be a certificate of completion issued ONLY once you successfully help a minimum of 5 people make positive changes in their life, Muslim or not.
I’ve taught this program to hundreds of students before. The most common feedback I have got from them is that it is LIFE CHANGING and has allowed them to fall in love with Islam like never before.
Use code ILLUMINATE50 for 50% off the first month. Only valid for first 50 people to sign up.
As I prepare to move away from the UK, all I can say is Alhamdulilah for being blessed with a father like this man.
Without him, I would not be able to do, or achieve, anything I have been able to achieve. Truly, all credit goes to him.
He stuck with me through thick and thin. His excellent character, unwavering Tawakkul and great generosity has taught me so much and there is nothing I can do to repay him.
All I ask is that if you have benefited from me even a small amount, please direct one sincere Dua towards him.
May Allah grant him a long life of ‘afiyah in this Dunya, and the highest ranks of Jannah in the Akhira. 🤲❤️

A must-watch video if you're in need of an Iman boost or even if you're a non-Muslim that is interested in Islam.
