Lessons from the Sermon of Imam Ali (a) on Eid al-Fitr

Imam Ali (a) mentions the qualities of Allah (swt) that
motivate a person to praise and glorify Him.
How could one ever lose hope in His mercy when it
encompasses all things.” (Q7:156)?
No individual is ever deprived of His bounty since human beings are constantly being showered by His blessings, both outward and known, as well as inward and hidden …” (Q31:20).

A Synopsis of Du’a 45 from Sahifa Sajjadiyya

April 2, 2025 / editor

Praise and Glorification of Allah: In this supplication, Imam Zain al-Abideen (a) begins by praising Allah for His kindness towards His servants. He rewards them for praising and thanking Him when it is really He who has inspired us to do so. Furthermore, it is He who guided us to the right path yet He still rewards us for following it.

Repentance and Seeking Forgiveness: Repentance follows confession and regret – only when one has remorse for his misdeeds can he truly gain forgiveness from Allah. Imam al-Sajjad (a) says that remorse is “firmly knitted in our hearts” and pardon is “sincerely uttered by
our tongues” as we confess and repent for our wrongs. We also ask forgiveness for our
shortcomings and negligence in this blessed month.

Ahadith on Death from Imam Ali (a)

April 2, 2025 / editor

The intelligent person is one
who does not waste his [time and] energy in that which does not benefit him, and does not [strive to] acquire that which will
not accompany him [after his death]. (H. 6718)
Verily when Allah, the Glorified, wishes good for a
servant, He grants him success in spending his lifetime doing the best deeds and blesses him with the ability to quickly use his available time to perform acts of worship, before [the coming of] his death. (H.10597)
One who is certain of the [eventual] departure [from this world] prepares for the journey. (H.9533)

Tafsir of Surah al-Ankabut – 20

March 17, 2025 / editor

Verse 69: “But as for those who strive hard in Our cause, We shall
most certainly guide them to paths that lead unto Us. God is indeed with those who do good.”
The surah concludes with an example of those who strive hard to earn the pleasure of Allah (swt). They endure whatever hardship they are called upon to endure, allowing no feelings of despair to creep
into their minds. They withstand every hardship and pass every test, fulfilling their duties. Allah (swt) says “… and He is with you wherever you may be, …” (Q57:4)
We pray to Allah (swt) to grant us an understanding of the Holy Qur’an in this Blessed Month which is the spring of the Holy Qur’an so that we can implement the teachings in our daily lives and
improve ourselves. Ameen.
