Heartwork | Ustadh AbdelRahman Murphy

Heartwork tonight continues our journey through Surah Fatiha - the opening chapter in the Quran.

This introduction to the Book of Allah is something we engage with every time we pray, a re-orientation to the themes that Allah wanted us to engage with. His introduction to the reader is something every person should reflect on constantly, keeping us in the right direction as the challenges we encounter in life - internally and externally - push us off course..

Our final Heartwork of the year will explore the "ask" in Surah al Fatiha. During our last session, a point was brought up that Surah Fatiha is a template for dua - praise, humility, and then the ask.⁠

⁠

What is it that we are asking for? Have we reflected about what guidance means to us? Why is it so important to look at how Allah described guidance as - a straight path? How does this reflection change our reading of the chapter in our daily prayers?⁠

We're continuing our discussion on Surah Al Fatiha, as we reach the concluding passage of the chapter.⁠

⁠

In this verse, Allah references three groups of people - the first of which we try to belong to, and the latter two that we desperately avoid being a part of. The descriptions that Allah gave each group is short-yet-far-reaching, with layers of depth that we can uncover through discussion.⁠
