What does the holy Prophet Muhammad (S) say about contemplation? And what is one of the pillars of Islam? And have we ever thought about what kind of knowledge and how much knowledge we acquire in our daily lives? What is our intention for using social media and what should our intention actually be? And has social media become a deterrent to our ideological and spiritual growth? Finally, how can we become an enemy of our own ideology? Sister Spade expounds. #SisterSpade #IslamicPulse #Savior #Allah #AhlulBayt #Islam #ImamMahdi #AwaitedOne #Justice #Spirituality #Faith

One minute to broaden our scope of one of the core and fundamental subjects of the Quran and Islam: SHIRK. With a little bit of contemplation over this, we will be one step closer to recognizing where we stand in the grand scheme of things and whether our actions make us worthy of heaven.

One of the questions we, as youths, might stumble across during our road trips to contemplation town is, ‘how do I know if I’ve been forgiven?”. Sure, we might ask for forgiveness, we might even do things to compensate… but the true realization of the answer lies in the hereafter, and we won’t see it until we get there, right? Sister Zaynab Barakat helps us through the thought process and arrive at some level of recognition… #TodayIThought #Islam #Quran #Forgiveness #Ahlulbayt

Taqleed means to follow. While in Fiqh (jurisprudence), one may do Taqleed of a marja\\\' in order to understand the Islamic rulings on prayers and fasting etc. People lose faith because they do \\\"taqleed\\\" in their beliefs. This is not allowed. One cannot believe in the oneness of God, in Prophethood or in the Day of Judgment simply because they follow someone else (their parents, or scholars). Rather, such beliefs must only be arrived at through personal contemplation and reflection. One may take help from the Islamic books and scholars, but at the end of the day one must strive to truly acquire faith in Islam through finding proofs, evidences and contemplation; not through Taqleed.

English translation of Supplication 7 from Sahifah Al-Sajjadiyyah where Imam (A.S) prays in contemplation of an important matter or accident which befell him or times of distress

Tawassul and our attachment to the Ahlulbayt requires contemplation and research. The Holy Prophet (S) and the Ahlulbayt (A) are certainly the best means to reaching Allah. But in what way...?

Questions, questions… Is everything determined by Allah? Does He choose what we do and don’t do in life? Or has He simply created us and left us free to make our own decisions? Do we really have the ability to make decisions of our own - or is everything we do a predestined effect of causes already set in motion? These are some of the mind-boggling questions that can keep us up at night and the answers to such philosophical queries normally take years and years of contemplation to truly suss out. Even so, allow the BISKIT guy to attempt to unboggle your mind for the next seven minutes. Inshallah, some questions will be answered and some new questions will be raised… #Allah #HolyProphet #Quran #Islam #Ahlulbayt #Fate #Freedom

Many – if not most – human beings go through life without ever truly undergoing the necessary transformation into the best that we can be. We come to this world as caterpillars, and it is our aim to develop into butterflies. But we often remain as crawling creatures of this lowly dimension, devouring our way through the dunya (worldly life), blind, deaf and dumb. When do we truly contemplate and make the conscious decision to be better? Brother Khalil Jafar beautifully sets forth an example of our existence in this world as something essentially alien. Do we really belong here? Is there a precedence within the Holy Quran which indicates that we were sent down from a higher realm of existence? What now is our aim in regards to life, the universe and everything? #SelfDevelopment #Thoughts #Contemplation #Islam #IslamicTeachings #Quran #Ahlulbayt

Brother Khalil Jafar explains the concept of “dying” before actual death touches us. The only real thing which is certain about life is that it will one day end; and every soul will inevitably taste of death. The main purpose of Islam is to reform the human being. Allah has created us with both the tabiah (animalistic nature) and the fitrah (divine nature) in order to test which of us will remain in the superficial shell of our animalistic selves and who will transcend in order to transform into something greater. #SelfDevelopment #Thoughts #Contemplation #Islam #IslamicTeachings #Quran #Ahlulbayt #Death #Butterfly #Life

Br. Khalil Jafar eloquently explains that “the closer we get to enlightenment, the harder it gets…” Sometimes, before reaching the great heights, those on the path of finding themselves will undergo severe depression. This is all part of the process of transforming and Imam Ali (A) explains, “expect relief at the tightening of the chains…”. A sudden change in one\\\'s life is inevitably going to occur for those destined for greater things; will you undertake the challenge? Or will you give up when things get difficult? It is in the darkest nights that the stars can be seen in all their splendor. #IslamicTeachings #ButterflyWithin #SelfDevelopment #Thoughts #Contemplation #Islam #IslamicTeachings #Quran #Ahlulbayt #Death #Butterfly #Life

Khalil Jafar eloquently explains one of the most fundamental questions: why do burdens fall upon us in this world’s life? Why are there trials, sufferings, pains and how do these things ultimately create a better human being? #IslamicTeachings #ButterflyWithin #SelfDevelopment #Thoughts #Contemplation #Islam #IslamicTeachings #Quran #Ahlulbayt #Death #Butterfly #Life

A stunning clip where we are reminded that true faith can only be attained through rational and logical thought. Sayyid Haydar Hasanayn calls out to our inner hearts and intuition, awakening the deep desire to recognize the reality of life, the universe and everything. In so many ways, the life-long journey of Islam begins with one very small step: the step of contemplation. This series is a call to reflect upon on some of the points which Imam Khamenei explains in the extraordinary book, “An Outline of Islamic Thought In the Quran”. #UNPLUGGED #Contemplate #Think #Love #Ahlulbayt #Islam #Quran #Shia #Sunni #Muslim
