We at Middle Ground have a short survey about a new class, a Qur’an reading circle. Please, if you have a moment, take time to fill it out. Jazakum’Allahu khayran:
#MiddleGroundPodcast – Those Who Have No Hope In Meeting Us
A short excerpt from Fajr Club, a weekly event/class at Middle Ground on the weekends. Here, I discuss a segment from the tenth chapter of the Qur’an, Surah Yunus.
إِنَّ الَّذينَ لا يَرجونَ لِقاءَنا وَرَضوا بِالحَياةِ الدُّنيا وَاطمَأَنّوا بِها وَالَّذينَ هُم عَن آياتِنا غافِلونَ أُولٰئِكَ مَأواهُمُ النّارُ بِما كانوا يَكسِبونَ
“As for those who do not expect to meet Us and are content with the life of the dunya/wordly life and at rest in it, and those who are heedless of Our Signs their shelter will be the Fire because of what they earned.” — Qur’an, 10: 7
#MiddleGroundPodcast – On Friendship – The Adab Of How To Win Friends And Influence People
In this episode, I discuss what might be thought of as a “How To Win Friends and Influence People” for Muslims in the age of social media.
#TheFollowUp – The Importance of Establishing Community
In this week’s episode we discuss challenges to establishing community as well as the role we must come to play in it if we’re to be successful.
Eid Mubarak, 1438!
Al-Hamdulillah, God blessed us with the opportunity to experience another Ramadan. This was a really special year and its memories will last a lifetime. I would also like to express my thanks, on behalf of Middle Ground, to the LA Times’ Frank Shyong for the nice write up on Eid. Also thanks to Ifran Khan for the great photos:
