How to Gain Fame and Glory [Hikam 86]

Command the Good, Change the World

In this insightful lecture, Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera unpacks the foundational Islamic principle of Amr bil Ma‘ruf wa Nahy ‘an al-Munkar—enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong. While this concept is often spoken about, its true meaning, scope, and method of practice can be complex and sometimes misunderstood. Dr. Mangera simplifies these intricacies, making the subject accessible and relevant to everyday life.

The lecture explores the deeper purpose behind this divine directive, clarifies common misconceptions, and outlines practical ways Muslims can embody it with wisdom, balance, and compassion. With clarity and thoughtful examples, Dr. Mangera demonstrates how living by this principle not only refines personal character but also uplifts communities and drives positive societal change.

Command the Good, Change the World reminds us that nurturing virtue and addressing wrongs responsibly is not only a spiritual duty but also a powerful catalyst for transformation in the world around us.

Imam Bukhari and the Path of Sacrifice for Islam

In this online lecture delivered via Zoom, Dr. Mufti Abdur-Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera reflected on The Spiritual Teachings of Shaykh Yusuf Motala. The talk began with a brief historical overview of the Chishti Sufi tradition in India, outlining its deep roots in spiritual refinement, service, and remembrance of Allah. Dr. Mangera then introduced the influential role of Shaykh Yusuf Motala’s own teacher, Shaykh Zakariyya Kandhlawi, whose guidance and scholarship shaped Shaykh Yusuf’s journey on the path of Tasawwuf.

The lecture highlighted Shaykh Yusuf Motala’s unique approach to leadership — marked by a soft, compassionate character and a gentle “hands-off” style of management that empowered his students and institutions to flourish. Through these qualities, he embodied the essence of the Sufi path: humility, selflessness, and trust in Allah.

This session offered not only historical insights but also practical lessons in spiritual living, drawing from Shaykh Yusuf Motala’s life and legacy as a guide for seekers today.
