In this session, we consider Bediuzzaman’s analysis of the following verse of the Quran: “Say, "If you love Allah, then follow me, Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." (3:31). We see why a failure to adhere to the sunnah is tantamount to a lack of love for Allah.

In this session, we revisit Bediuzzaman's discussion of the Basmala in his First Word. We also discuss an extremely valuable supplication for forgiveness known as the Sayyidul Istighfar (Master of Repentance).

In this session, we consider some questions regarding the human propensity to sin. Is it possible to entirely avoid sin? Does this mean we are forced to sin?

Why have the people of guidance so often been defeated by the people of misguidance? Why, for example, does Allah allow us believers to suffer at the hands of non-believers in present-day conflicts throughout the world? We consider these issues with the benefit of readings from Bediuzzaman Said Nursi's Thirteenth Flash, Ninth Indication.

A discussion of questions relating to marriage and qadar (Divine Determining), with the benefit of readings from the Risale-i Nur.

A discussion of the Divine Name of al-'Adl (The Absolutely Just) and how this Name manifests in both the physical world and in our own lives. We consider, in particular, how Divine justice manifests in matters such as our bodily or physical appearance.

A discussion of the irrationality of neglecting salah (the prescribed prayers) or failing to give salah its due. We also consider how the performance of salah can, with the right intention, convert all our mundane, everyday actions into acts of worship. Based on readings from Bediuzzaman Said Nursi's, 'The Fourth Word'.

A discussion of one of Bediuzzaman Said Nursi's key arguments for Divine Unity and Oneness. Based on readings from the Twenty-Second Word of the Risale-i Nur.

A discussion on the issue of discord among believers, and Bediuzzaman Said Nursi's prescription for how we can personally address it.

A discussion of the human capacity for anger, and related capacities. Based on Bediuzzaman Said Nursi's discussion of the 'sirât al-mustaqeem' (the straight path) in his Quranic commentary known as 'Isharat'ul Ijaz' (Signs of Miraculousness).
