Your Advice Is For You First (A Hard Islamic Reminder) - Ousama Alshurafa

Описание: The condition of the Ummah will not change until Muslims return sincerely to Allah — and that return begins with fixing ourselves before fixing others.

In this powerful reminder, the speaker explains that da‘wah is not only for non-Muslims. It is first and foremost for us. Guidance belongs to Allah alone, and our responsibility is not to “fix” people, but to reform our own hearts. As the scholars said: your tongue is closer to your own ear.

Many Muslims today perform religion as habit — prayer without presence, words without life, rituals without ruh. Allah, however, does not look at the quantity of deeds, but at their quality: sincerity (ikhlas), certainty (yaqeen), and presence of the heart. Deeds are weighed on the Day of Judgment because their inner reality determines their worth.

The speaker shares how speaking about Allah and Tawheed — especially during times of isolation and trial — revived faith in thousands, reminding us that iman wears out and must be constantly renewed. Knowledge alone does not sustain prayer or obedience; only living, breathing iman does.

At the heart of this talk is the structure of the shahadah itself:
it begins with negation before affirmation.
We first strip the heart of false reliance, then affirm Allah as the only true Doer behind what we see.

The reminder is clear:
✔ Fix your iman
✔ Renew la ilaha illallah
✔ Speak about Allah before speaking about people
✔ Focus on sincerity over visibility
✔ Return to worship with presence, not routine

When the heart is corrected, Allah rectifies the deeds.
When iman is renewed, obedience becomes light.
And when Allah becomes central again, the Ummah begins to heal — starting with you.
