The Prophetic mission is to transform society by transforming individuals within and without through education and mentoring.

The process entails inculcating sound beliefs, molding character, purifying the souls – thus awakening the hearts.

According to Imam Shafi (d. 204 AH /820 CE), the Prophetic wisdom is enshrined in the authentic Sunnah as recorded in the sound traditions.

This course intends to study 101 authentic traditions to provide a road map for living Islam authentically in its three dimensions-faith, spiritual practices, moral and spiritual development.

Getting Others to Change

Shereeza Ibrahim. B.A.Psych, M.S.W, R.S.W.

We all have people in our lives that that we believe need to change for the better. We believe that our relationships would be so much more harmonious if they just had a better attitude or better habits. What is worse is when we make a consistent effort to change because we passionately believe in improving the way we relate to others, yet others are still not willing to make the slightest change in their attitude and behaviour. So what do we do?

Sadaqah jariyah

Sadaqa jariyah means ongoing or perpetual charity.

It is a form of charity which, unlike other charities, survives the donor and continues to be a source of blessings for the donor long after they have passed. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “When a person dies, all his works cease except three things: ongoing charity, beneficial knowledge, or righteous offspring that pray for him.” (Reported by Muslim and others on the authority of Abu Hurayrah)
