Reliance
on Allah: The Cure
For An Ummah in Crisis
Abdal
Hakim Murad In a serene courtyard
of a madressah in Northern New Mexico, Abdal Hakim Murad sits
down for an informal address on the topic of having peace and
contentment with the decree of Allah. He reflects upon his experiences
of the ummah over the years and describes how it became apparent
that Muslims in modern times are neglecting this traditional
virtue, thereby causing widespread agitation and insecurity.
Whereas previous generations cultivated this virtue to their
own success, today's ummah seems to be neglecting it to their
own demise. Abdal Hakim, a British convert, probes the matter
in-depth and shows how the absence of contentment in one's life
can lead to serious defects such as self-righteousness, anger
and suspicion of others. The more widespread effect of such a
void is an ummah lacking direction, unity and credibility on
the world stage. This shrewd observation serves as a great starting
point for individual revival and, on the collective level, prescribes
the perspective necessary for prevailing over the tribulations
facing the ummah today. Other topics discussed: Islamic theology
vs. the problem of evil, contentment in the prophets' lives,
the virtue of mercy, scholars as guides, strength in numbers,
optimism, and the need for having a sound heart. (Duration: 1
