What is the foundation of true unity? Is it shared heritage, culture, or even family ties? This lecture by Dr. Omar Suleiman highlights that genuine unity is rooted in piety and the collective striving for goodness.

Learn why the most effective way to help an oppressor is to stop their oppression—and how this principle becomes the basis for working together in truth. This isn't just a discussion about community; it's a profound challenge to redefine your understanding of unity and solidarity.

Ten episodes, three days, and numb legs. In this bonus session, Dr. Tesneem Alkiek and host Qaanitah Hunter spill the secrets of filming Real Talk and discuss everything from first impressions to high school awkwardnes to maintaining trust in the timing of Allah.

What does it mean to walk the earth lightly? In this opening lecture of the Ibad al-Rahman: Servants of the Most Merciful series, Dr. Omar Suleiman explores the very first quality that Allah attributes to His most beloved servants — humility.

“The servants of the Most Merciful are those who walk upon the earth humbly…” — Surah al-Furqan, 25:63

Dr. Omar explains how true faith begins not only in the heart, but appears in the way we move, speak, and carry ourselves. Through reflections on the Prophet ﷺ’s character, the struggles of the early believers in Makkah, and the contrast between arrogance and grace, this session invites you to embody a faith that walks gently — yet stands firm in dignity.

Join the journey of Ibad al-Rahman — a call to live as those recognized by Allah Himself.

Are you feeling bored, distracted, or emotionally flat in your worship?

Explore why believers sometimes feel disconnected or weary in their salah, duʿāʾ, and dhikr, and how to revive sincerity and spiritual energy. This khutbah also offers a deep and practical explanation of the profound hadith: “Allah does not tire until you tire,” clarifying its meaning and what it teaches us about consistency, balance, and Divine mercy.

Of all the ways of Muhāsabah (holding ourselves accountable) this is the most unique. How do we work on ourselves before our own bodies speak on the Day of Judgment. Our limbs, our eyes, our hearing, our tongues, and even our desires are recording every step, every glance, and every word.

When everyone said “me, me,” the Prophet ﷺ said “my ummah, my ummah.” He cried for his followers and made du‘a for people he never met — including you. The Prophet ﷺ taught us that when you pray for others, angels reply: “Ameen, and for you the same.”

So expand your du‘a. Pray for the ummah, for the oppressed, for those who’ll never know your name.

When you pray beyond yourself, Allah expands your heart.

Watch till the end to learn how the Prophet ﷺ’s example can transform your du’a.

When the test came, the Sahabah didn’t hesitate. Neither did the disciples of Isa (AS). Their devotion wasn’t just words, it was action, sacrifice, and faith. Are we even close to their level of devotion? While we can never be Sahabah, we can discover what it truly means to embody the spirit of those who showed utmost devotion.

In this Gaza Diaries episode, a Palestinian-Australian doctor who volunteered in Gaza recalls paramedics who had to make peace with death, a night when hundreds of injured and dying children filled the hospital wards to overflowing, and a moment that changed a colleague’s worldview as young patients awoke reciting Qur’an. Anchored by his mother’s words—“Death is in Allah’s hands”—Dr. Mohamed Mustafa reflects on intentions, resilience, and why elevating Palestinian voices is the path to re-humanization.

One day, everything we chase of wealth, power, or status, will lose its shine. The world will expose what we once thought was worth fighting over, and every argument, betrayal, and war will come down to one question: Was it really worth it?

This khutbah is a reflection on how greed and ego blinds us from doing the right thing. From broken homes to global injustice, the pattern is the same: we destroy what’s priceless for what’s temporary.

From the Rapture to the Antichrist, religious texts often outline visions of the future. The Qur’an, too, speaks of what’s to come. But Allah ﷻ emphasizes the past—on the stories, lessons, and warnings from history—so that we’re prepared for what lies ahead. Is the past more important than predicting outcomes of the future? Dr. Omar Suleiman answers these questions and more in this khutbah.
