Muslims
throughout the world are in crisis, yet there seems to be a revival
occurring within the ummah today. Abdullah Hakim Quick addresses
this by first reviewing some of the great Islamic revival movements
of the past. He then discusses ways in which the ummah of today
can have similar success despite the enormous crisis it is experiencing.
The key to this success, as this lecture asserts, is the protection
of each individual heart. Shaitan takes certain steps to capitalize
on the weakness of the Muslim by utilizing ten inroads to the
heart, such as envy, greed, anger and haste. If Shaitan is successful,
the ummah will continue to be confused and divided and, in effect,
the revival will never happen. This presentation serves as a
wake-up call meant to raise awareness of these inroads to the
heart so the believer can be on guard and have hope for winning
the battle against Shaitan. An in-depth presentation about protecting
the heart that can serve as a foundational starting point for
real unity and revival. Other topics discussed: excessive love
of food and drink, fear of poverty, dislike for those who disagree with us, the
mulazima system (studying under a sheikh), making pledges, why
the ummah is in such tribulation today, Muhammad ibn Abdul Wahab
and the four medhabs (schools of thought), and making hijrah
(migration) today. (Duration: 1 hour, 8 min)
