This talk emphasizes the significance of spirituality in a materialistic world, highlighting that materialism can overshadow the unseen dimensions of faith if not acknowledged. Throughout the talk, important concepts such as the importance of intention, the need for reminders, and the differing depths of understanding spirituality are explored. The talk reflects on the Quran's emphasis on Taqwa, or consciousness of Allah, as a guiding principle not just for believers but all of humanity. The discussion points serve to remind listeners of the essence of worship, which should transcend mere physical actions or rituals, aiming instead for a deeper connection with the unseen.

The talk further uses examples from the Quran, particularly stories from Surat Al-Kahf, to illustrate the triumph of spirituality over materialism. The narratives highlight the importance of faith and the unseen, demonstrating how true spirituality allows individuals to see beyond the physical aspects of life. The talk encourages a re-evaluation of personal worship practices, urging listeners to strive for a more profound understanding of their spiritual lives.

Ultimately, the message calls for a collective and individual awakening to the spiritual foundations of Islam, reaffirming that true faith is rooted in believing beyond the material world.

Below are some of the topics in this talk:
- Reminders and renewing ones intention
- Islam not being a material religion
- Creating a true connection with Allah
- How does a person attain Taqwa?
- Examples of the true pious ones in Islam
- Examples from the Quran
- Striving to attain spirituality

Obedience to the Messenger ﷺ
Delivered by Shaykh Riyadh ul Haq on Friday 2nd December 2022 at Al Kawthar Academy, Leicester

This talk emphasizes the multifaceted relationship between believers and the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, anchored in belief, support, love, and the essential aspect of obedience. The talk points out that simply believing in the Prophet ﷺ is insufficient; it is crucial for believers to actively follow his teachings and implement them in their lives to achieve true guidance and success. The talk illustrates the significance of obedience through various Qur'anic verses, where the disobedience of the Prophet ﷺ directly correlates with the disobedience of Allah, highlighting the severe consequences of ignoring this relationship.

The talk reminds the audience that even close familial ties, such as those of the Prophet’s ﷺ wives or children, do not guarantee salvation if they fail to follow him.

Furthermore, the talk stresses that a true connection with the Prophet ﷺ must be demonstrated through actionable obedience and that cultural or familial sentiments alone cannot serve as a substitute for embracing and following his teachings.

The discussion warns against the inclination to mock or deride those who practice the Sunnah, as this reflects a deeper issue of personal belief and devotion. It concludes by underscoring that the believer's ultimate success hinges on their commitment to both loving and obeying the Prophet ﷺ, showcasing the necessity of this duality for salvation in the hereafter.

Below are some of the topics in this talk:
- The Prophet ﷺ being a messenger for all
- Success through following the Prophet ﷺ
- Those who turn away from obedience
- Personal connection along with obedience
- Ridicule towards those who observe the sunnah
- Relationship with the Prophet ﷺ
- Allah addressing the wives of the Prophet ﷺ

The Prophet ﷺ: A Servant of Allah
Delivered by Shaykh Riyadh ul Haq on Friday 9th December 2022 at Al Kawthar Academy, Leicester

Video: https://youtu.be/bQUC8knLpYQ

This talk outlines the attributes and names of Rasulullah ﷺ, focusing on how Allah has elevated him through various titles such as Nabi, Rasul, Muhammad, and Ahmad, emphasizing his revered position as "Abdullah" or servant of Allah. Several anecdotes reflect prophetic virtues, especially during significant moments in their lives, showcasing their humility in servitude toward the Creator. The talk emphasizes that true honour lies in the act of serving Allah, as demonstrated through instances from the lives of prominent prophets like Yusuf and Sulayman, who despite their elevated status remained humble servants of Allah.

The key point highlighted is that servitude should be embraced, and through this humility, individuals can forge a deeper connection with Allah. The talk concludes by urging everyone to adopt the spirit of servitude as exemplified by Rasulullah, promoting the understanding that one's position in this world should be approached with the utmost humility, regardless of past glories or achievements. Through such a lens, the talk reinforces Islamic values of patience, respect, and servitude, advocating that humility before Allah is the ultimate sign of faith and piety.

Below are some of the topics in this talk:
- Names given to the Prophet ﷺ
- Allah's choice of a title for the Prophet ﷺ
- Humility of Yusuf a.s, Sulayman a.s & Isa a.s
- The position which Allah loves the most
- The manner of eating by the Prophet ﷺ
- Avoiding extravagant praise
- Accepting the rank of servitude

Born in Netanya, Israel, Rabbi Yaron Reuven began his American Dream as a little boy, when his family immigrated to the United States. He went from a newspaper boy at the age of 10, to a well known self made Wall Street multimillionaire by the age of 23. During his time in Wall Street he owned his own private brokerage firm, as well as a hedge fund and international insurance agency. He was also featured on CNBC, Bloomberg and Chinese NDTV due to his success in the financial industry.

 

At age 26 he faced a 7-year battle for his life when a simple surgery went wrong. From that moment his life would never be the same. This moment marked the start of a series of miraculous events and an exciting pursuit of truth, ultimately resulting in Rabbi Reuven renouncing his lofty position and success in Wall Street, after 16 years, to become a full time kiruv rabbi. His Teshuva story is sure to catch the heart of every listener. Watch his inspirational movie HaShem Took Back His Millions 

Rabbi Reuven’s shiurim are in English and Hebrew. His classes are focused on spreading the truth and divinity of the Torah through scientific proofs, Mussar, and many other methods to reach each individual listener.
