In this episode, Shaykh Faraz Rabbani covers hadiths twenty-one to twenty-four from Imam Nabahani’s set of hadiths on the virtues of faith and submission. In hadith twenty-one, we learn that anyone who has even an atom’s weight of faith in their heart will leave the hellfire. In hadith twenty-two, we learn a prophetic dua of contentment that will lead one to Jannah. Hadith twenty-three informs us about how entering into and “making good” one’s Islam wipes away past sins, and what happens with good deeds and bad deeds performed thereafter. In hadith twenty-four, we learn about the connection between faith and loving one another for the sake of Allah Most High. Shaykh Faraz then begins the section on The Beginning of Study, Its Amount, and Its Organization from Imam Zarnuji’s “Instruction of the Student”, where we learn about how much to study in the initial stages of learning, what to begin with, how to approach review, and the importance of making dua for one’s studies.
In the Daily Rawha, Shaykh Faraz Rabbani will be covering Daily Guidance for Seekers, beginning with two texts:
(1) Imam Zarnuji’s Guidance for Seekers of Knowledge Regarding the Ways of Seeking Knowledge (Ta`lim al-Muta`allim Turuq al-Ta`allum); and
(2) Imam Yusuf al-Nabahani’s beautiful collection of 40 sets of 40 Hadiths of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
The texts will be read in Arabic, translated, and commented upon briefly. This class is of benefit both for committed students of knowledge—particularly given the reading in Arabic—and for those simply seeking daily guidance, reminders, and inspiration in learning to live the light of Prophetic guidance.
