  • The Gravity of One Murder, and the Death of Justice

    31/05/2020 Duration: 32min

    In this talk,  Imam Omar Suleiman takes on the death of George Floyd from the aspect of Allah’s edict in Surah Al-Isra’ which can be broken down to :-. The sanctity of one human life;The complete authority of the family of the one killed unjustly;Those that are angered by the murder should not become unjust themselves in seeking justice; andThe role of the state/government/imam with the victim/ victim’s family/heirs. There is no justification for the unjust murders executed against its victims and the fact that there still has been no justice meted out only compounds the injustice that is prevalent in our society. Take the example of George Zimmerman who not only got away with the murder of Trayvon Martin but he has actually made hundreds of thousands of dollars after the killing. What is the message being given out to society, to potential murderers? Since nothing happened to Zimmerman, there is unsurprisingly no fear of accountability in all other cases of murder of persons of colour by persons in

    24/05/2020 Duration: 04min

    This is final episode 30 in the Angel series of Ramadhan 2020. When Allah loves someone Allah calls to Jibri’il and informs Jibri’il that He loves this servant and He instructs Jibri’il to love that servant and Jibri’il will inform all the angels that Allah loves this servant and all the angels will now love this servant too and love is then placed in the hearts of men for that servant of Allah s.w.t.. There are a few things to keep in mind in relation to the above:- The love of Allah s.w.t is the only love one should seek unconditionally. If you gain the love of Allah, it follows that Jibri’il will love you, the angels will love you and the people whose love is worth having will love you. Next, when you are beloved to Allah s.w.t., Allah will then put that love in the hearts of other men who are beloved to Allah, and you will be loved by righteous people for your righteousness. Thus, henceforth do all you can to seek and attain the love of the only one that matters -your Creator and Sustainer.
