Sheikh Dr. Sajid Umar

✨ Allah Al-Fattah ✨
Whatever mercy Allah opens up for people, none can withhold it.[Fatir 35:2]

Al-Fattah, The Opener, is the One who unlocks the doors of mercy, guidance, and success. He removes barriers, clarifies what is unclear, and grants victory to whom He wills.

🔑 Whether it is a solution to a problem, an answer to a question, or the unlocking of blessings, it is only through Al-Fattah that clarity and openings come. He holds the keys to all that is good, both in this world and the next.

🚪If faced with uncertainty, such as making a difficult decision, praying Salah al-Istikhara and asking Al-Fattah to guide our hearts opens the doors to peace and clarity.

👁‍🗨Imam al-Ghazali mentioned: “Strives to open the locks of mysteries for others and be relentless in spreading beneficial knowledge.”

🌟 May Al-Fattah unlock the doors of mercy, wisdom, and success for us, guide us to clarity in all matters, and help us become vessels of light and relief for others. Ameen. 🌟

✨ Allah Ar-Razzaq ✨
Indeed, it is Allah who is the Provider, the firm possessor of strength. [Adh-Dhariyat 51:58]

Ar-Razzaq, The Ultimate Provider, sustains all creation with His infinite wisdom, mercy, and generosity. His provision encompasses everything, from the nourishment of the body to the needs of the soul and mind.

🛍Ar-Razzaq provides freely and abundantly to every creature on earth. He opens doors of sustenance in ways that we cannot comprehend.

😌Reliance on Ar-Razzaq brings tranquility and liberation. We no longer need to compromise our morals or fear loss when we place trust in Him.

💗 Embodying Ar-Razzaq’s lessons means practicing gratitude and contentment with Allah’s decree. Being content with what we have, leads to peace of mind and spiritual strength.

🌟 May Ar-Razzaq provide for us from sources we cannot imagine, guide us to use His blessings wisely, and make us content with His provisions. Ameen. 🌟

Tonight will be the 1st night of Sha'baan, inShaAllah, in Saudi Arabia.

I have not come across any news of a sighting of the moon last night.

Regaridng the month, ‘A’ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, said:

“The Messenger (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to fast until we thought he would never break his fast, and not fast until we thought he would never fast. I never saw the Messenger of Allah fasting for an entire month except in Ramadan, and I never saw him fast more than he did in Sha'ban.”

(Reported by Al-Bukhari, no. 1833; Muslim, no. 1956).

May Allah preserve us in His obedience, and bless us to witness the entire Ramadan. Ameen.

Your brother,
Sajid Umar.

Assalamualaikum.

Please message me privately Should you wish to help me with this.

Baarakallahufeekum.

✨ Allah Al-Wahhab ✨
You are indeed the Giver ˹of all bounties˺[Sad 38:35]

Al-Wahhab, the Great Giver whose blessings are infinite, unconditional, and perpetual. Every moment of life is an opportunity to embody gratitude and generosity.

🎁Al-Wahhab bestows gifts upon all His creation without expecting anything in return. He provides freely, demonstrating His mercy and generosity.

🕋The countless gifts surrounding us; our health, intellect, family, and even the beating of our heart are divine endowments from Al-Wahhab. We often take these blessings for granted, but gratitude can transform our perspective and connection with Allah.

💗Embody this divine quality by giving freely and lovingly. Even the smallest gift, such as a simple gesture or act of kindness, can spread love and strengthen bonds.

Let Al-Wahhab’s infinite generosity inspire you to appreciate His gifts, use them wisely, and share them with others.

🌟 May Al-Wahhab bestow upon us His mercy, guide us to use His gifts in ways that please Him, and grant us endless gratitude. Ameen. 🌟

*"Raising Visionary Leaders" with Dr. Sajid Umar - _the Barakah Effect podcast, ep92_*

https://youtu.be/KSnWrFvY0SM

For this episode, we have a conversation with one of our favorite teachers, Sheikh Dr. Sajid Umar, on what it takes to Raise Visionary Leaders. We discuss:

✅ COVID - making the best out of our circumstances to be proactive
✅ What does it mean like to have a vision? What does being a "visionary" look like, from an islamic perspective?
✅ How can parents raise visionary future leaders, when they are struggling with handling the day to day challenges of parenting their children?
✅ The difference between contemporary self-help concepts of "visionary" versus the Islamic perspective of high aspirations
✅ Basis of decision making: the difference between "good" and "right"
✅ The critical role of tawhid and how it plays a central role of every aspect of our development: Intellectual, emotional and spiritual intelligence.

We initially titled this as "Raising Visionary Youth", but seeing how Dr. Sajid addresses this topic on a deeper, broader, level that impacts the concept of vision and high aspirations on a more personal, and simultaneously larger perspective. Being a Visionary begins with OURSELVES first - and ultimately, it's not about youth, but about leaders: the change that the umah needs!

✨Allah Al-Qahhar ✨
“…and all will appear before Allah—the One, the Supreme” [Ibrahim 14:48]

Al-Qahhar, the One whose strength and dominance are unmatched. He is the Absolute Sovereign over all creation, subjugating everything to His will.

Let Al-Qahhar remind you that no obstacle is greater than Allah’s power and no enemy stronger than His will.

🏆Victory belongs to Allah. Those who oppose Allah are bound to fail.

💪When Allah is on your side, no challenge or enemy can overpower you. Just as He supported the prophets in their darkest hours, Allah Al-Qahhar is with you, protecting and empowering you.

👑True power lies in submission. Rather than seeking dominance over others, reflect on your own submission to Al-Qahhar.

Walk through life with faith in the One who dominates all,
لا إِلـهَ إِلاّ اللهُ الـواحِدُ القَهّـار رَبُّ السَّـمواتِ وَالأرْضِ وَما بَيْـنَهـما العَزيـزُ الغَـفّار
There is none worthy of worship but Allah, the One, the Victorious, Lord of the heavens and the earth and all that is between them, the All-Mighty, the All-Forgiving.

🌟 May Al-Qahhar grant us the strength to overcome our struggles and submit fully to His will 🌟

BarakAllahu feekum

✨ Allah, Al-Ghaffar✨
Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the Exalted in Might, the Perpetual Forgiver.[Sad 38:66]

Al-Ghaffar loves to forgive and wants to forgive those who seek forgiveness from Him. So, remember:

🌼No sin is too great for Allah’s forgiveness. Do not let shame or guilt hold you back. Seek His forgiveness and trust in His mercy.

🌻Forgiveness is strength, not weakness. Just as Allah forgives repeatedly, He calls us to forgive others.

🌹Be a mirror of Al-Ghaffar’s mercy. Lead with compassion, not suspicion. Look for the good in people and encourage them to improve. Forgiving others is not just about others, it’s about freeing ourselves from bitterness and aligning our hearts with Allah’s mercy.

🌟 May Allah, Al-Ghaffar, forgive our sins, purify our hearts, and make us a source of love and mercy for others. 🌟

✨ Allah Al-Musawwir ✨
"And Allah has extracted you from the wombs of your mothers not knowing a thing, and He made for you hearing and vision and intellect that perhaps you would be grateful." [An-Nahl 16:78]

Al-Musawwir is The Flawless Shaper of every creation and each creation is unique, according to His wisdom.

🫶He organizes on an unimaginable scale. We are limited in what we can make, whereas Allah's creation is unbounded.

🌹The extraordinary abilities gifted to His selected creations weren’t self-cultivated, all were bestowed by Al-Musawwir.

🌿 May we thank Al-Musawwir for the blessings He has fashioned in us and use them in ways that please Him. 🌟

رَبِّ أَوۡزِعۡنِيٓ أَنۡ أَشۡكُرَ نِعۡمَتَكَ ٱلَّتِيٓ أَنۡعَمۡتَ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَىٰ وَٰلِدَيَّ وَأَنۡ أَعۡمَلَ صَٰلِحٗا تَرۡضَىٰهُ وَأَدۡخِلۡنِي بِرَحۡمَتِكَ فِي عِبَادِكَ ٱلصَّـٰلِحِينَ

✨Allah Al-Bari’ ✨
"[It is] the work of Allah, who perfected all things. Indeed, He is Acquainted with that which you do." [An-Naml 27:88]

Allah Al-Bari’ fashioned everything with perfection and wisdom.

💯He created us perfect in His design, even with our perceived flaws.

🌹True beauty lies in devotion, piety, and compassion.

🌱Our imperfections remind us of our humanity, not shortcomings in Allah’s creation.

Let’s embrace the vessel He has granted us. The journey to self-love starts with gratitude.

اللَّهُمَّ أَحْسَنْتَ خَلْقِي فَأَحْسِنْ خُلُقِي
"O Allah, You have perfected my creation, so perfect my character."

🌿 Perfect yourself through action, not appearance. Return to Al-Bari and find peace in His perfection. 🌟

🤲He decrees everything with divine wisdom.

🌸 If He created the complexities of the universe and the intricacies of our lives, how can we not trust His plan?🌸

“I seek refuge in my Lord and your Lord from every arrogant person who does not believe in the Day of Reckoning.” [Ghafir 40:27]

Reflecting on Al-Mutakabbir, The Dominant One, inspires us to stay grounded and strive for excellence with sincerity:

🌟 Avoid arrogance, stay humble and guard against self-inflation. Every achievement is by Allah’s grace. Let humility guide your gratitude.

📚 Avoid thinking you know it all. Pursue lifelong learning

💪 Don’t chase recognition—focus on giving your best.

Al-Jabbar emphasizes Allah’s supreme power over creation.

🌿 Avoid arrogance by knowing that any success we gained is by Allah’s grace, not our own.
💔 Call for Restoration, Turn to Al-Jabbar when facing hardship
🤲 Acknowledge Al-Jabbar’s ability and ask for His healing power to restore what is broken.

🌸 Reflecting on Al-Jabbar is to trust in Allah’s power to heal and restore all things in our lives. 🌸

Assalamualaikum, I'll be starting a regular email circular titled: *Curated Soul Food* inShaAllah.

It will consist of a selection of short thoughts, lessons, and guidance that matter to the Muslim community of the 21st Century.

We will cover topics related to worship, marriage, parenting, community membership, trade and investments, tafseer, seerah, purification of the soul and much more.

It will not be a heavy read, but a practical read inShaAllah, so don't be afraid 😨 😅.

In the upcoming couple of weeks inShaAllah I will be sharing a link for you to sign up to it.

May Allah grant us life and make us a means towards building ignited communities that benefits humanity. Ameen.

Your brother,
Dr. Sajid Umar

“Indeed, those who believed and done righteous deeds - The Merciful will appoint for them affection” [Maryam 19:96]

Allah’s Rahmah is all inclusive and embraces all. Let’s embody Allah’s mercy in our daily lives:

💫 Start every task with بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ

💖 Be merciful to others, for the Prophet ﷺ said, “Allah will not be merciful to those who are not merciful to mankind.”

🌟 Do good with the intention of it being the means to draw us closer to Allah.

🌷 Let’s lead with compassion and make every day a step toward earning Allah’s mercy! 🌷

Perth Australia is blessed with a hospitable Muslim community and it was an honour to to deliver a lecture in their Masjid Furqan, one of many masaajid here, on the topic of visionary children of the Sahaabah. During the lecture I touched on the importance of having visionary parents to give rise to visionary children.

🛑 *Is Your Car Financing Halal?* 🛑

Many Muslims are *_unaware_* that common car financing methods often involve interest_ (riba), which is not permissible in Islam. But, *good news*: there are _halal_ alternatives!

In our latest publication, we guide you through the different Shari’ah-compliant options:

🚙 *Hire Purchase* (HP) – Pay in instalments while owning the car at the end.
🚙 *Islamic Leasing* (Ijārah) – Rent the car without ownership obligations.
🚙 *Personal Contract Purchase* (PCP) – Pay to use the car now, with an option to buy later!

These options help you avoid riba, *stay true to your values*, and still enjoy the comfort of having a car for your family’s needs.

👇Check out the full publication to ensure your financial choices reflect your faith.

University of Leicester Islamic Society Circular

To the family of Brother Azhar Safwaan

We at the University of Leicester Islamic Society are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Brother Azhar Safwan, and wish to extend our deepest condolences to his family during this time.

Brother Azhar lived a life in service to the Da'wah, and was a beloved member of the community. Though we grieve for his loss, we take comfort in the fact that he has reunited with his Lord and leaves behind a legacy in the form of not only his children but also in the hearts of all those who knew and loved him.

In a beautiful speech given by Sheikh Dr Sajid Umar at the janazah, he spoke of Brother Azhar's immense strength in his battle with cancer, and his resilience to always say "Alhamdulillah" right up until his departure from this earth. We ask Allah SWT to give us all this level of tawakkul and strength, Insha'Allah.

We ask Allah SWT to forgive brother Azhar, have mercy upon him, and grant him an eternal abode in Jannahtul Firdaus, Insha'Allah. We ask also Allah SWT to shower mercy upon brother Azhar's family, to grant them peace in their hearts and give them the strength to endure this trial.

Jazakallahu Khair
University of Leicester Islamic Society

He a part of great goodness this Friday, and contribute to a legacy.

Please also create awareness of this effort. Baarakallahufeekum.

Until we meet again- Azhar Safwan

Yesterday, on the 6th of September, we laid our beloved brother, Azhar Safwan, to rest. After his passing on the 5th, following a courageous two-year battle with cancer, we gathered to honour a man who, I sincerely feel, lived in service of Allah, striving sincerely, yet impactfully to support the vision of the final Messenger, our Messenger, Muhammed (saw).

I was blessed to know some of our brothers charity, but since his illness and passing, I learned even more of his goodness—of the lives he touched, the causes he supported, and the many he inspired, including myself.

His Funeral

Azhar’s funeral was a blessed one, from his final ghusl (bathing) and shrouding, to the janazah salah (funeral prayer) , to his burial. He was accompanied until We laid the final specs of dust by countless people, friends and strangers alike, who traveled from various parts of the UK and beyond. Some were moved by his kindness and companionship, while others attended only because they were inspired by his legacy and the heartfelt stories, sentiments and tributes, shared by scholars and leaders of da’wah who knew him well.

Azhar had personally requested me to take care of his final rites, a duty I was honored and blessed by Allah to fulfill to the best of my ability.

After his burial, I was asked to share a reminder with those present; I have attached it here for you to benefit from as well, courtesy of a recording done by our brother Ejaz Taj, may Allah reward him.

https://youtu.be/d_U6QLekshI?si=tAm9U4TLluLnjpm3

His son Abdullah

I am especially proud of Azhar’s teenage son, Abdullah, who stood by my side, manifesting amaizng maturity and strength as we completed his father’s final rites together. Masha’Allah, he is truly a testament to his parent's legacy, and I am so very proud of him.

A Final Note

From Azhar’s final life's moments to his burial, we witnessed signs of a beautiful departure, one that reflects the path of the people of Jannah, and may Allah make him from among its residents. Ameen!

Azhar’s life was a legacy of calm strength and unwavering trust in Allah.

A true legacy is not only in how we are remembered, but in how we are raised on the Day of Judgment, and I only feel greatness for our brother on that day.

Brother Azhar has passed the baton on to us, so let us now rise to continue his journey and honour his memory by serving the Ummah and standing firm in the causes beloved to Allah, as our Lord expects from us.

Let us also remember in our prayers his beloved wife and the four young children he leaves behind in our care.
May Allah grant them a beautiful patience, ease their hearts pain, and assist us in being present for them as they navigate this loss.

May we be a source of strength and support for them. Ameen.

📌 Finally, I am raising funds for a Waqf in the name of our brother. I sincerely request for us to stand with this effort, in the hope that it will be a means to enter the Paradise that we faithfully hope Allah will grant our brother. You can contribute to the effort here:

Let's stand with our Brother Azhar, the Haroon to Causes beloved to Allah, the Da'wah & Du'aat of our Ummah! (Donation link to his Waqf below)

https://youtu.be/tbexXkM1HgE?si=7UA3ylPtuBJCIjhM

Brother Azhar has returned to Allah today, the 5th of November, 2024, after a life spent in quiet, powerful service to the Ummah. I called him the “Haroon of the causes of our Ummah,” for he stood tirelessly for Allah’s causes, uplifting scholars and supporting communities worldwide—from Sri Lanka to Qatar, the UK, and beyond. He gave without hesitation, often anonymously, manifesting the true spirit of selflessness and trust in Allah.

Now, as he once stood for Allah's work, let us stand for him together. Please consider supporting the causes he held dear, for the sake of Allah.

I've attached with this message a video I recorded of him not long before his departure, which holds pertinent advice to us all.

May Allah enter him among His Awliyaa and grant him the status of Shahaadah! Ameen.

*Funeral Notice* - *Abdul Haq*

Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Ilayhi Raji'un

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,

With a heavy heart, I share the news that my dear uncle, Abdul Haqq, my father's older brother, returned to Allah on Monday evening, 14th October. I was blessed to be with him during his final moments, and by the mercy of Allah, his passing was peaceful, inShaAllah Alhamdulillah.

Abdul Haqq lived a life of selfless service, always caring for his family and those around him with love and compassion.

We ask Allah to grant him Jannatul Firdaus, to make his grave a garden from the gardens of Paradise, and to give our family the strength and patience to bear this loss.

The funeral prayer (janazah) will take place at 3:45 PM at at Saffron Hill Cemetery Stonesby Avenue Leicester LE2 6TY (Today Tuesday the 15th of October 2024).
