It is often claimed by other schools of thought that the following verse in the Holy Quran is proof that the ancestral lineage of the Prophet (s) consisted of polytheists, such as Azar, the ‘father’ of Ibrahim (as): “And Ibrahim asking forgiveness for his father was only owing to a promise that he made to him; but when it became clear to him that he was an enemy of Allah, he declared himself to be clear of him; most surely Ibrahim was very tender-hearted and forbearing.” (9:114) However, it is important to note the phrase used to describe Azar. The word ‘ab’ is used in Arabic, but this can denote several meanings which does not necessarily indicate a ‘waled’ (biological father). The word ‘ab’ can mean uncle. For example, in the Holy Quran in Surah Baqarah, Ismail (a) son of Ibrahim (a) and the uncle of Yaqoub (a) is referred to as his ‘ab.’ (2:133) This establishes the usage of the word ‘ab’ as a term used to define a role of another who is not a biological father. The biological father of Ibrahim (a) who passed away when Ibrahim (a) was of a young age is known as Tarokh, the brother of Azar. He is mentioned by Sunni historians. For example, Ibn Katheer states Ibrahim was born when Tarokh was 75 years old (al-Bidayah wan Nihayah, vil. 1, p. 139). In Surah Ibrahim, when Ibrahim (a) is of old age, he makes a dua to Allah swt saying, “Our Lord, forgive me and my parents and the believers the Day the account is established” (14:41). The term ‘waled’ is only used to refer to your biological father. Since it was prohibited for Ibrahim (a) to make istighfar for Azar as he was a mushrik, why would he later make istighfar for his parents and this would be accepted by God? This proves his biological parents were believers.#Hawza #Seminary #Alhujjah #islam #shia #Qazwini

Religious Gatherings, a Place for Changing People’s Destinies

Let’s put ourselves on the path of doing good deeds. Qur’an, “Be with the truthful,” and “Bow your heads with those who bow (in worship).” Go into the good crowds! Good crowds somehow push a person for correcting his behaviour. In a group prayer, you are encouraged to read the recommended supplications afterwards. When you participate in religious meetings, you’re encouraged to say Salawat (greetings to the Prophet and his Household) for different reasons. You’re encouraged. When you go to the religious gatherings regularly, they say, “We have a gathering tonight. Come.” You’re encouraged.
Apply yourself to doing good deeds, with good crowds, and with good friends. This is very effective. What is the result and fruit, which comes from these good deeds? Intention. Juicy, sweet, golden intentions, which can give water to a world. Because, in a religious gathering there is more access to the depths of a person’s heart. The gatherings either make a person think deeply or influence him or her deeply.
That nice longing, that cute and good intention, which God accepts, can usually be found in the religious and eulogy gatherings. If you carelessly make an intention, it won’t be what it should be. An intention should have roots in a person’s internal being. Because, in a religious gathering there is more access to the depths of a person’s heart.
One of the things that the Almighty God does is to connect the far past of a person with his far future. We don’t usually relate these to each other. We don’t even remember them. But, God remembers them. He keeps them noted. He plans a 20-year plan and you reach it.
Suddenly a person longs for something. He says, “I wish I could help to guide a few people.” He says this deeply, sincerely, and caringly. His life turns around. Perhaps 15 years later the environment is right for him to bring prosperity to 40 people. Other people regret saying, “Why couldn’t I do that?” God says, “I am his or her God and your God too. If you had wanted it, I would have given it to you too.”
All of the things that happen are based on what comes to our heart. Sometimes they show it and it’s a disaster! I mean from morning to night we must watch over our hearts. Heart don’t wander for God’s sake! Although, we can’t. You can, God willing. Bring your heart to a religious gathering. Say, “Unruly one! No matter where you’ve gone, let me take you somewhere good too at least.”
Sometimes a person does a precise act on his intention and changes his destiny. That nice longing, that cute and good intention, which God accepts, can usually be found in the religious and eulogy gatherings. Because, in a religious gathering there is more access to the depths of a person’s heart.

00:05 - 00:12
You have all heard that when Imam Zaman (atfs) reappears in Makkah and proclaims "Ana BaqiyatAllah",

00:12 - 00:22
the 313 who are at the center of helping him establish his government, reach him at lightning speed.

00:22 - 00:29
This is in our hadith. I will ask you a question: are the 313 not busy with their own affairs?

00:29 - 00:35
Afterall, they are living in this world when the Imam (atfs) makes his call and they get to him at lightning speed.

00:35 - 00:41
Do they not have any work? The answer is yes they do but they don’t have any dependence.

00:41 - 00:48
They are so prepared to help WaliAllah (atfs) that as soon as they hear his voice they will drop everything.

00:48 - 00:58
If they were planning on putting on their hats and scarves and take care of other work and get to him later they wouldn’t be the 313.

00:58 - 01:05
At that point where the WaliAllah (as) invites you even a moment of delay will keep you behind.

01:05 - 01:11
Sometimes even one dependency can keep you behind which is very hazardous.

01:11 - 01:18
In order for a car to run, all parts need to be working. However, even one problem can prevent it from running.

Things are quickly shaping up in the media world, especially with the ever increasing influence of social media. The current dynamic is leading to narrative wars, where it is almost as if people are living in entirely different worlds. A major element of this is disinformation, amplified by the social media dynamic and an effective tool for centers of power. Other elements include the echo chamber effect on social media on hot topics such as Ukraine crisis, the pandemic, recent events in Iran etc. Host Zainabrights and guest Fatima El-Zein discuss what it means to be journalists in today's narrative wars and the backend obstacles journalists are faced with today on reporting truthful news stories.

The For God and Country Podcast is a serious discussion on relevant events and topics happening in the United States that affect the God-centric. Host Zainabrights features interesting people, perspectives, and conversations that can shed light on serious issues facing the community.
