The Seven Sleepers | Stories of Al-Kahf with Sheikh Sajid Umar | Episode 3

November 27, 2020 by Sajid Umar Leave a Comment

The final part of the story of the Seven Sleepers. Upon asking Allah “Shower upon us your mercy”, Allah responds by:

1. Granting them shelter in a cave

2. Allowing them to sleep a restful sleep

3. Making their sleep undisturbed

4. Situating the dog near the entrance of the cave to be as a deterrent / guard

5. Filling the heart of whoever came close to the cave with fear

6. Not letting the sunshine directly hit the cave during sunrise and sunset didn’t

7. Allowing them to toss and turn so their bodies were not lifeless

When they woke up and the word ‘walyatalattaf’ “وليتلطٌف” (found in the middle of the Quran) is mentioned. What can we derive from this word and how should we act at a time of weakness.

The Seven Sleepers | Stories of Al-Kahf with Sheikh Sajid Umar | Episode 2

November 20, 2020 by Sajid Umar Leave a Comment

Where does the story of the 7 sleepers start in this surah? Why were they hiding, what Dua did they make to Allah and how did Allah respond? How many years passed in the cave? Why is it important to learn and understand the Arabic language? Allah refers to himself as “نحن” (We) what does this mean?

The Seven Sleepers | Stories of Al-Kahf with Sheikh Sajid Umar | Episode 1

Why does Allah use stories in the Qur’an? An entire Surah has been named after the historical event of the ‘People of the Cave’. There are multiple stories in this Surah but ‘Al-Kahf’ was chosen as the name, what is their story? How do verses from this Surah protect against the anti-Christ?

Trade Boycotts in Islamic Fiqh

November 1, 2020 by Sajid Umar Leave a Comment

Assalamualaikum Sh. Sajid. From an Islamic Transactions perspective, how would the calls towards boycotting products be viewed?

وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته

:باسم الله والحمد لله، والصلاة والسلام على رسول الله، أما بعد

From an Islamic perspective trade is seen as a means (waseelah) towards achieving different ends (maqaasid). We all trade as a means of aquiring a required benefit, as oppossed to just trading for the sake of it.

Based on this the Shariah applies the rules of the latter upon the former accordingly. Thus generally, if the outcome of the trade is a permissible one, the means towards that outcome will also be considered permissible. However if the outcome of the transaction is considered impermissible in islam, then the means that would eventually lead to that forbidden outcome will also be considered forbidden.

The concept of trade as we have covered together in previous posts, articles and courses was cited as being from the permissible matters (in Arabic: Mubaah), and the scholars of Jurisprudence methodology catagorise Mubaah practices as based on the outcomes they lead to into four catagories, as explained eloquently by ibn alQayyim (rh), as follows:
