My beloved brothers and sisters in Islam, there is no feeling in this world that quite compares to holding your newborn child for the first time after your wife’s delivery. It is a moment where time stands still, and our hearts are overwhelmed with a love so profound that we instantly understand the depth of Allah’s mercy. Today, we will learn the recommended Islamic Dua for a new born baby and the surrounding practices. When Allah blesses us with this precious gift, it is not just a moment of joy;  It is a moment of great responsibility. He is…

My dear brother, my dear sister, imagine for a moment that a noble guest is on the road to your house. Would you leave your home dusty, disorganized, and unprepared? Of course No and what about the Blessed Ramadan? A guest so honored that Allah Himself announces his arrival. I think it is necessary that we discuss how to prepare for Ramadan so that we won’t move in unprepared and lose its rewards. Preparation for Ramadan is not optional, it is itself an act of worship. The Salaf used to ask Allah for six months to allow them to…

My dear brothers and sisters, As-Salaamu ʿAlaykum wa Rahmatullaahi wa Barakaatuh. If you are reading this, chances are that either you or someone close to you is suffering silently from the effects of black magic (sihr). Allah, out of His mercy, has given us clear guidance, proven remedies, and a straight path on how to treat black magic with Sidr leaves, and how to treat sihr with Sidr leaves correctly, without superstition or innovation. People treat black magic with Sidr leaves, and also treat sihr with Sidr leaves for a long time. This is not folklore passed down by culture.…

Assalaamu alaikum, brothers and sisters. Before you can truly protect yourself from the jinn or protect yourself from black magic, you must first understand what Islam actually teaches about these matters. Much fear about jinn and sihr comes from people’s ignorance, exaggeration, and cultural myths that have nothing to do with the Qur’an and Sunnah. The jinn are creations like us. We humans, were created from clay, angels from light, and jinn from smokeless fire. This difference is that Allah gives them abilities humans do not possess, but it does not make them divine, all-powerful, or beyond Allah’s control.…

Assalaam Alaikum. There are moments in life when everything seems unexplainable, your heart feels heavy, and your body feels drained without a medical explanation. Your sleep is disturbed. Your affairs feel blocked. Your relationships strain for no clear reason. You pray, but you feel distracted. You plan, but things collapse. And you hear people saying you need to perform Ruqyah for the evil eye or perform Ruqyah for black magic. Yes, they are right. Quietly, silently, many Muslims endure this confusion without speaking to anyone. But when you see people advising you on this, it is important that you…

My dear brother, my dear sister, before we speak about the Signs of Black Magic (Sihr) or the Signs of Jinn Possession, let us first calm the heart. Not every hardship is sihr. Not every pain is possession. And not every fear is a jinn. That is why the scholars said that the first step before assuming sihr or possession is to rule out medical, psychological, and emotional causes. Our  Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ), directed us to seek cures.. There is no disease that Allah has sent down except that He also has sent down its treatment.” (Sahih al-Bukhari).  This…

My dear brothers and sisters in Islam, in our journey to have a sound heart and protect ourselves from the afflictions that can attack us, be physical illness, spiritual whisperings (waswas), or the evil eye (al-‘ayn), we need to know these Ayatul Ruqyah. Islamically, Ruqyah refers to reciting Qur’anic verses, Allah’s Names and Attributes, and authentic supplications (duʿāʾ) from the sunnah for the purpose of healing from physical illness, spiritual harm, evil eye, envy, jinn affliction, fear, and inner distress with full belief that healing comes only from Allah. The Prophet ﷺ confirmed this clearly. He said: “There is…

Have you ever been stunned after awakening in the middle of the night, your heart pounding, sweat on your forehead, replaying the disturbing dreamin your head? For a moment, the room will feel heavy. Your chest tightens. You look around, wondering why your sleep was shattered like that. If that’s happened to you, you need the dua for protection from bad dreams. My dear brothers and sisters, know this, you are not alone in that experience. Every one of us experiences this. And more importantly, our beautiful Deen, Islam, does not leave us, the believer, confused, frightened, or helpless…

Question: Assalaam Alaikum, Sheikh, I need you to help us clarify or teach us how a Muslim can respond to New Year greetings. This is because we have a lot of non-Muslims all around us, and they believe that the New Year festival is general. So, they usually greet us for this, and since we have come to know the reason why we Muslims don’t celebrate New Year’s, we believe that we must not join them in this, either. Answer: Alhamdulillah, we give praises to Almighty Allah. You’re not alone in this, my brother. The question of “how a…

My dear brothers and sisters, we are living in a time when fear feels closer than ever. You step out of your home, and your heart tightens. You hear stories of kidnappers, bandits, armed robbers, and evil-doers who show no mercy. You think twice before traveling. You worry about your children, your spouse, and your parents. The question now is whether there is any dua to seek Allah’s protection from evil doer? Yes, there’s a recommended dua to seek Allah’s protection from evil doer as mentioned by our Prophet in his sunnah. Our beloved Prophet ﷺ, who is a…
