This week’s session of Heartwork, we’ll be discussing the next passage in Surah Taha, starting at verse number 121.

One of the many lessons we learn from the story of Adam, Hawa, and Shaytaan that no matter what mistake a person makes, Allah's forgiveness awaits them so long as they seek it.

In this story, there is a profound "fork in the road" when Shaytaan whispers to Adam and Hawa to approach and eat from the tree: both parties had made mistakes, but while one gets cursed, the other is forgiven. What was the difference? Let's discuss through these verses tonight, at Heartwork.

Young Professionals: tonight we'll be discussing our second disease: showing off/ostentation (riyaa' in Arabic). Doing acts that are supposed to be virtuous and for Allah, but doing them for a reason that is not sincerely for Allah.⁠⁠

⁠⁠

This disease is one of the most challenging because of its ability to exist within the heart of a person completely undetected. There are moments, though, where the symptoms of this disease become abundantly apparent.⁠⁠

⁠⁠

How do we know if we're sincere? How do we fight our nafs in our effort to do things for Allah alone? How do we mitigate the effects of feeling riyaa' creeping up within us when we are doing something that should be for Allah alone?⁠⁠

Young Professionals: the sins of the tongue hold particular significance in the Quran and Hadith literature. Allah and the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ refer to the tongue as an part of the human body that is so small but can inflict so much harm on ones self and others.

Throughout the next few weeks, we'll be going over some of the diseases of the heart that manifest through the tongue. Tonight's disease is backbiting - what is it? What does it mean to backbite someone? What if what I am saying is true - is it still backbiting?
