Five Wisdoms of Sayyiduna Ali That He Urged To Memorize

An explanation of the power of taqwa and trust in Allah in decision-making. Faraz Rabbani explains how, "Whoever has mindfulness of Allah, Allah grants a way out and provides for them in ways they could never imagine." [Qur'an, 65.2-3] This is not only through spiritual assistance but also through the practical facilitation of making right choices--as taqwa is committing to leave all that is displeasing to Allah and choosing what is pleasing to Allah. This is the practical way to good in all choices.

But people have their worldly and spiritual fears and misgivings, so Allah Most High promises, "And whoever places their trust in Allah, Allah is their sufficiency.." [Qur'an, 65.3]

In this episode, we discuss Mohammad Rustom's new book, Inrushes of the Heart, which delves into the life and thought of the Muslim philosopher and Sufi master 'Ayn al-Quḍāt Hamadānī. The conversation explores the book's insights into 'Ayn al-Quḍāt's original teachings on topics such as God, human agency, and spiritual practice.

Path & Present is a long form conversation hosted by poet, emcee, and teaching-artist Baraka Blue with friends and guests including artists, musicians, authors, and scholars to collectively explore what it means to walk a path of awakening and spiritual discernment in the modern world. Topics covered include spirituality/religion/metaphysics, community, art/music, psychology, social justice, Islam and Muslims in the West, and earth stewardship.
