Don't forget to fast this week!
1) Monday 25th of January (Sunnah Fast)
2) Tuesday 26th of January (13th of Jumada al-Thani)
3) Wednesday 27th of January (14th of Jumada al-Thani)
4) Thursday 28th of January (15th of Jumada al-Thani / Sunnah Fast)
The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“Fasting three days of each month is fasting for a lifetime, and ayyam al-beed are the 13th, 14th and 15th.” - [An-Nasa’i, (2420)]
Izz ad-Din al-Qassam was a key resistance figure in the 1921 Syrian revolt against the French rule of Greater Syria after World War I. Whilst in Palestine, he preached to the lower classes, gathering a large following among landless ex-tenant farmers who had lost their livelihoods due to purchases of agricultural land by the Jewish National Fund.
Al-Qassam devoted himself to moral reform, encouraging the community to keep regular prayer, to maintain the Ramadan fast, and to stop gambling and drinking. His campaign was so successful that those among the townspeople who were not noticeably pious either reformed or began to conform to shari’a standards in public.

Realise who you are: a dignified human being and a servant of Al-Karīm, a name of which one of the meanings is the Honoured One. Beware of abasing yourself with a dirty habit, shady business, private conversation, compromising clothing, or careless lifestyle. You know all too well the consequences of such abasement: a humiliating dismantlement of one’s karīm-sense of self.

Abul-A’la Mawdudi was a scholar, journalist, thinker and politician who devoted his life for the revival of Islam in the Indian subcontinent post British colonisation. He played an active role in cultivating the lost dignity and self-respect of Muslims and eventually established the ‘Jamaat-e-Islami’ – a political party and organisation created to uphold and educate Muslims in accordance to Islamic values.
In addition to the numerous literary and scholarly works including ‘Tafheem al Qur’an’ and ‘Seerah of the Prophet’; he expounded systematic ideas to challenge the status quo of secularism by introducing a unique Islamic political system and an Islamic constitution.
