Interesting lecture for those who involved in volunteering work. The importance and the commitments. How it relates to time management and so on.

This is a very good talk by Dr Bilal Philips about Volunteers in Islam and Voluntary Acts of Work 

This is just a reminder for all of us, as a reminder is good for a believer Subhanallah, I speak to myself first, as I renew my intentions daily to keep that volunteer spirit & schedule alive Alhamdulillah. 

We must care about each other so that the strong can help the weak and the weak can benefit from the stronger ones Ameen.

How can we protect ourselves from doing this work for the wrong reasons eg., popularity, fame etc.??? ~try to be around those who are sincere and their sincerity will rub off on us Ameen.  Take stock of ourselves from time to time and ask why are we doing this? If it's for the wrong reasons then you correct it by seeking repentance from Allah SWT and changing our intentions as it should be purely for the pleasure of Allah SWT Ameen.

Volunteering in Islam

Dr. Abu Ameenah Bilal Philips was born in Kingston, Jamaica, and grew up in Toronto, where he converted to Islam in 1972. His whole life has been exemplified by his goal of seeking and conveying Islamic knowledge in order to “Change the Muslim Nation through Islamic Education.”

In preparation for this goal, he first acquired a B.A. from the College of Islamic Disciplines at the Islamic University of Medina (1979), then an M.A. in aqeedah (Islamic Theology) from King Saud University in Riyadh (1985), and finally a PhD in Islamic Theology from the University of Wales (1994). Interestingly enough, His PhD thesis was on “The Exorcist Tradition in Islam”.

After graduation from the University of Medina, Dr Bilal spent ten years teaching Islamic studies in an Islamic high school in Riyadh, and another ten years lecturing in Arabic and Islamic studies in the American University in Dubai, UAE.

In 1994 he founded the first Islamic Information Center in Dubai. He has served as the head of the Department of Arabic and Islamic Studies at Preston University-Ajman, UAE; lecturer and director of the Da’wah and Education at Qatar Guest Center, Doha, Qatar; founder and head of the English medium Islamic studies department of Knowledge International University, Riyadh; founder and head of the College of Da’wah and Islamic Culture (English Section) at Omdurman Islamic University, Sudan; founder and head of Preston International University College in Chennai, India; and founder and Dean of the Islamic Studies Academy in Doha, Qatar.

But perhaps his greatest achievement, and the one for which he was listed in the Jordanian publication, ‘The 500 Most Influential Muslims’, is the historic founding of the Islamic Online University which in only 5 years has over 80,000 students registered from every country on the face of this earth! Unlike the other educational programs he has founded and overseen over the years, IOU makes it possible for any person from any location in the world to receive an Islamic education absolutely free.
