In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed says elections are not haram and help solve public issues, but they are not the best way to establish Islamic governance (Iqamat-e-Deen). Striving for Iqamat-e-Deen is a duty, but achieving it is not guaranteed. He also critiques Jamaat-e-Islami for relying too much on politics and not focusing enough on a deeper struggle for this goal.
In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that interest (riba) is a grave sin and deeply ingrained in modern economic systems, making it challenging to avoid entirely. Islam forbids any involvement in riba, whether earning, paying, or facilitating it, as it corrupts both individuals and society. While necessity may offer some leniency, passively accepting or supporting this system is not permissible. He emphasizes that Muslims must actively seek lawful alternatives, minimize reliance on riba, and work towards reforming the system to align with Islamic principles.
In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that a person can be part of both a Tanzeem and under Bai'at with a spiritual leader at the same time, but it is not ideal. This dual commitment may divide focus and reduce effectiveness. However, if someone joins a Tanzeem, they must prioritize its practical demands over spiritual allegiance. The struggle for collective goals requires greater obedience.
In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed emphasizes that good deeds should be done only to please Allah, not for showing off or gaining worldly benefits. He warns that if a deed is done with mixed intentions, it loses its value. The focus should be on sincerity, seeking reward only from Allah. Any other motive makes the good deed worthless.
In this clip, Dr. Israr Ahmed explains that while he is not an expert in Islamic law, dogs can be kept for purposes like guarding the house or for hunting, as mentioned in the Quran. However, they should stay outside the living areas of the house. Regarding the trading of dogs, he mentioned he is unsure about the specific rulings.
Dr. Israr Ahmed recounts the story of Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S) confronting a king who denied God. The king ordered Ibrahim to be burned alive, but when he jumped into the fire, Allah turned it into flowers. The Quran narrates how Allah defeated those who intended to burn Ibrahim in the fire.
In this clip, Dr Israr Ahmed differentiates between personal and collective worship, highlighting that individual acts of worship are incomplete without addressing societal injustices.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed emphasizes that we shouldn't argue about whether the deceased can hear us. The key is to greet them with "As-salamu alaykum" at the grave, as instructed by the Prophet. Instead of getting into debates about the afterlife, we should focus on good deeds like charity and prayers for the deceased. This approach helps avoid division and keeps the focus on beneficial actions.
In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that sincere repentance can lead to the forgiveness of all sins. He refers to the story of Prophet Adam and Hawwa (Eve) in the Quran, where despite their serious mistake, their genuine repentance was accepted by Allah. Allah taught them the proper words to seek forgiveness, showing that even grave sins can be forgiven through true repentance. The lesson is that sincere regret and seeking forgiveness can erase past wrongdoings.
In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that using "waseela" in dua is permissible if it aligns with Islamic teachings, such as invoking a righteous deed or pious person for intercession. Dua is a direct connection with Allah, but intercession can be valid in specific cases. Allah answers prayers in three ways: granting the request, offering something better, or using it for spiritual benefit. Allah's response is always guided by His wisdom.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed emphasizes the importance of prioritizing the struggle for Deen after joining an Islamic organization. He explains that while it's necessary to fulfill basic needs like food, clothing, and shelter, excessive indulgence in luxuries should be avoided. The focus should remain on serving the purpose of Deen. Our main effort should be for the establishment of Islam, with worldly needs being secondary.
Dr. Israr Ahmed talks about having true faith in Allah and His Messenger (S.A.W). He says it's not enough to just pray or read the Quran; we must sincerely believe in our hearts and follow Allah's guidance. He warns against pretending to be faithful while holding resentment inside.
In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains why life brings us challenges. He says all human beings irrespective of their social and financial status, and achievements face tough times, even those who can't afford basic necessities. The Quran teaches us that these struggles are part of being human, be it physical or mental struggle.
In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that a believer should live in the world without becoming attached to it. The main focus should be on the hereafter. Use the world, but don't let it distract you from Allah. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) appreciated things in this world but always kept his heart set on the hereafter. The world's beauty is a test to see if people stay devoted to Allah.
In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains why a grandchild (pota) does not inherit from a deceased grandparent if their own parent (the son or daughter of the deceased) is still alive. If the son is alive, the grandchild does not receive inheritance. However, if the son is deceased, the grandchild can inherit, as the inheritance would pass to the next line. He also explains that while the grandchild may not inherit, they can receive a gift or will from the grandparent during their lifetime, within legal limits.
In this clip Dr israr Ahmed explain that Islam recognizes only two Eids: Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha, while Eid Milad-un-Nabi, commemorating the Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) birth, is not a prescribed religious festival. Acts of kindness on this day, like feeding the poor, are permissible, but celebrations and processions resemble non-Islamic traditions and were historically introduced for social reasons. Thus, while honoring the Prophet’s birth through good deeds is encouraged, observing it as an Eid has no foundation in Islamic teachings.
In this clip, Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Prophet Muhammad's (SAW) main goal was to establish Allah's religion and uphold sincerity in dealings with Him and His Messenger. He didn't seek personal power or possessions but focused on spreading Allah's message. Muhammad (SAW) embodied the best of humanity and aimed to establish Allah's religion through his own efforts.
In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that the Quran is made up of Ayat (verses) which are signs of wisdom and knowledge. It has 114 Surahs (chapters), but "Surah" shouldn't be translated as "chapter." The number of Ayat is about 6,236, depending on whether the "Bismillah" is counted. Understanding these terms correctly is key to comprehending the Quran.
