Affairs
of
the Heart
Siraj
Wahhaj At a Texas youth
retreat with the theme of striving for excellence, Siraj Wahhaj
instructs high school and college students about the most important
aspect of their being, the heart. He encourages the young Muslim
audience to strive for success by being well-rounded individuals
with a foundation firmly rooted in the spiritual aspect of themselves.
What exactly is the heart? What is the nature of the heart? And
how does one protect the heart? In discussing the significant
role the heart plays in the life of the believer, the imam also
explores the related issues of listening to music, lowering the
gaze, and the sin of fornication. A great talk for any Muslim,
especially teenagers, seeking to increase their faith, spirituality
and respect for Allah. Other topics discussed: the dangers of
complacency, guarding the eyes and ears, helping those who are
straying, "Islamic" music, Muslims in the music industry,
and women reciting the Qur'an in the presence of men. (Duration:
