Secret Esoteric Dimensions of Wudhu (Ritual Ablution) | REFLECT Wudhu is a washing process that Muslims perform 5 times a day and it is compulsory to be in the state of wudhu before touching the holy texts or praying. But how often do we contemplate over the hidden, mystical meaning behind the action of Wudhu? Islamic Pulse’s new show, hosted by Shaykh Farukh Sekaleshfar, explores the hidden, esoteric dimensions of the Wudhu. It is a great misconception to assume that the rituals prescribed by Islam are merely physical, but rather, for every outer action, there is an inner, deeper reality. Inshallah, this will be the first of many shows exploring the often neglected hidden realities according to the mystics (urafa) and gnostics, grounded firmly in the Quran and Ahadith.

The Hidden Meaning of Water in Islamic Rituals | REFLECT An introduction to the hidden esoteric meaning of water from an Islamic Irfani perspective.

Some of us assume that praising, cheering for, and liking the mujahideen is enough. Is it really sufficient to just support them in spirit?

How are you participating in this struggle?! Ponder!

Living in the West? In light of recent events, this episode of REFLECT explores some of the esoteric, secret dimensions of the concept of martyrdom in the modern world. Islam has survived because of our firm grip on the past (Imam Husayn [A]) and our hopes for the future (Imam Mahdi [A]). Today, the Great Satan America is confronting the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Resistance Axis. We are giving many martyrs in the cause of Islam. What does this mean for us, living in other parts of the world? On what moral grounds can it be justified to live under governments which are committing such heinous acts of aggression against Muslims and martyring the saints and soldiers of the movement of Imam Mahdi (A)? Shaykh Farukh Sekaleshfar provides deep spiritual food for thought, especially for Muslims living in the West, regarding the martyrdom of General Qasem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis. These noble and heroic personalities were murdered by the cowardly American regime, which is the Pharaoh & the Yazid of today. #QasemSoleimani #ImamHusayn #ImamMahdi #Iran #TrumpsWar #DeathToAmerica #SevereRevenge #Iraq #Iraq #Uprising #IRGC #CENTCOM #CIA #ImamKhomeini #Khomeini #Khamenei #IslamicRevolution #IranIraq #Hezbollah #TrumpsWar #ImamKhamenei #ImamMahdi #Mahdi #Resistance #Lebanon #Fatimah #AbuMahdialMuhandis #Qiyaam #Zuhoor #AbuMahdiAlMohandes #Muhandis #QassemSoleimani #USAtroops #UStroops #Iranattack #TrumpIsAWarCriminal #deathtoisrael #DeathToIran #QasimSoleimani #Qasem_Soleimani #QudsForce #WWIII #worldwar3 #WW3 #WorldWarIII

Finally revealed: The truth about living in the West. Shaykh Farukh Sekaleshfar talks on the spiritual secrets of the Islamic Revolution. What does it mean to attain true freedom? Are you a Slave to a Taghuti System in the West? The Revolutionaries are celebrating the 22nd of Bahman - the 41st anniversary of the Islamic Revolution paving the way towards the global uprising of Imam Mahdi (A)… but what does this mean for those living in non-Islamic environments, particularly in the West? Shaykh explains using Quran how you cannot live comfortably under Taghuti (tyrannical) systems like in the West. But what if you were born in the West? What about being an “ambassador to Islam” in the West? Is integrating into the Taghuti system problematic? \\\"…Exit your people from the veils of darkness towards the light and remind them of the Days of Allah…” - The Holy Quran [14:5] #ImamMahdi #22Bahman #RevolutionDay #IslamicRevolution #DaysOfAllah #ImamKhomeini #Khomeini #ImamKhamenei #Khamenei #IslamicRepublic #Iran #Iranian #1979 #41Years #40Years #Immigration #Exodus #Tehran #Qom #ImmigrationLaws #Islamic #Reality #Quran #Iraq #Pakistan #Trump #BorisJohnson #BorisTheLiar #UK #USA #France #Hijab #HIjabBan #Women #Education #LGBT #LGBTRights #NoToRSE #D2A

Dr. Shaykh Farukh Sekaleshfar discusses the spiritual dimension of the virus today. While taking all the necessary precautions and listening to the advise of medical experts - as the Sharia dictates - it is imperative that we recognise that one of the greatest threats which humanity is faced with is fear; but why should believers fear that which is a creation of Allah and has no power in and of itself? This is the first part of 3 videos which will discuss the #coronavirus inshallah. #StayAtHomeAndStaySafe #CoronaLockdown #Corona #COVID19 #COVIDIOTS #Covid_19 #CoronaCrisis #SaturdayMorning

#Coronavirus or #Covid-19 has infected many countries around the globe. How does Islam look at the Coronavirus? Is it a curse? Is it a punishment? Or is it an opportunity for humanity? Ayatollah Jawadi Amoli is one of the highly esteemed scholars of Islam in Qom, Iran. He explains how a believer should look at this pandemic. Allah has given humanity another chance to reflect and get its act together.

While the whole world is faced with #coronavirus, we would like remind ourselves and all the believers out there to reflect on these words of the 4th Imam, Imam Sajjad (A). Understanding the world of existence is a gateway to understanding the Creator of the existence. O\\\' Allah while we face many difficulties in this world, including this pandemic #coronavirus, we turn to you, O\\\' our Lord, we seek your refuge, O\\\' Almighty. You are our protector. The Leader, Imam Sayyid Ali Khamenei advised all the believers to recite this Dua (7) of Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya. #Dua #Supplication #Covid-19 #Corona #CoronaVirus

(This is part 2 of 3 videos discussing the spiritual dimension of the #coronavirus.) Fear is something which narrows one’s mind, prevents him from seeing the realities and makes one submissive to perceived powers in the hope that one might be saved. Instead of looking for solutions to any given issue, one who is intoxicated with panic will not be able to help themselves or others. Worry is a misuse of your imagination. Shaykh Farukh explains the concept of fear in light of the verses of the Holy Quran and how one ought to overcome all fears - except for the fear of Allah. Attachment to the world leads to fear. Detachment will set you free… #coronavirus #COVIDー19 #COVID19 #COVID2019 #Covid #lockdown

(Part 3 of 3 videos discussing the spiritual dimension of the #coronavirus.) As the virus continues to plague the countries of the world - some more than others - and people are suffering globally due to the mismanagement of oppressive governments, it has occurred to many people that perhaps the virus is a plague sent to purge the earth of evil doers. But this, as Dr. Shaykh Farukh Sekaleshfar explains, is not necessarily the case. In fact, it is not our belief that divine punishment (adhaab) exists in this temporary realm of existence - but rather, a thing preserved for the hereafter. This discussion may surprise many of our viewers: please pay careful attention to the in-depth discussion and truly #REFLECT on what is being said in light of the Quran and Ahadith. #coronavirus #COVIDー19 #COVID19 #COVID2019 #Covid #lockdown #StayAtHomeAndStaySafe #CoronaLockdown #Corona #COVID19 #COVIDIOTS #Covid_19 #CoronaCrisis #SaturdayMorning #ThePromisedSaviour

When this instalment of CubeSync was filmed, around 33 Million Americans were unemployed. Now, that number has gone up to almost 40 million, and the numbers continue to rise. While it can be humorous to see President Donald Trump make blunder after blunder, flamboyantly making boastful promises as the USA sinks into chaos - we would like to ask our viewers to take a moment and seriously reflect on what is happening... #Covid19 #Coronavirus #FireTrump #COVID2019 #USA #America #AmericaFirst #Unemployment #MAGA #DeathToAmerica #AnthonyFauci #JeremyKonyndyk #PatrickLawrence #AndrewCuomo #MassGraves #CubeSync
