In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Huroof-e-Muqatta'at, the mysterious letters at the start of some Quranic chapters, have unknown meanings. No one can be certain about their purpose, as Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) didn’t give a clear explanation. Some scholars have tried to interpret them, and one idea links them to symbols in ancient Hebrew, but their exact meaning remains a mystery.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed believes that working abroad isn’t ideal in Islam. He says people educated in Pakistan should serve their country instead of going abroad for money. Moving away can weaken cultural values and lead to neglecting family, especially elderly parents. Serving one’s own country, he says, is more honorable.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains "bai'at" (pledge of allegiance) as a process where people give their opinions, but the leader (ameer) makes the final decision, not based on majority votes. He notes that this can be difficult for those used to democratic systems. However, he emphasizes the importance of loyalty to the leader in Islam, citing the Battle of Ahzab, where Muslims pledged their support to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the need for unity in faith.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed discusses the two main aspects of jihad in Islam: personal worship (ibadah) and spreading Islam. He explains that some Islamic laws can't be implemented in non-Islamic countries due to the lack of an Islamic system. He emphasizes the importance of following Islamic guidelines wherever possible. Dr. Israr Ahmed also outlines how to choose Islamic groups based on their goals, leadership, and methods.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that to establish Islam, Muslims must work together in a disciplined group. Just like prayer requires ablution, establishing Islamic law needs unity and organization. The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) formed a group for this purpose, asking followers to stay loyal and obey his guidance. Without such unity, efforts to uphold Islam cannot succeed. Dr. Israr stresses that joining a strong, organized group is essential for fulfilling this religious duty.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that, in Islam, a woman’s main role is to care for her family, while the husband provides financially. Women can work if they follow Islamic guidelines, like wearing hijab. He suggests women-only workplaces, like hospitals and schools, to keep things modest and aligned with Islamic values.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that baait (pledge of allegiance) in Islam can be for spiritual guidance or for jihad. It doesn’t have to be given to a specific person; anyone with sincere intentions for Allah can offer baait. He shares an example of scholars like Maulana Ata Ullah Bukhari who took baait to fight against the Qadiani movement. Baait involves a commitment to follow Allah’s path, avoid what displeases Him, and be ready to sacrifice for His cause.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that a coward is a true believer who may lack courage but still has faith in Allah. A hypocrite, however, only pretends to believe and is focused on worldly gains, with no real faith. The hypocrite may lie and hold grudges against other Muslims, showing their lack of genuine belief.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that achieving change through non-violent methods, like Gandhi’s movement against the British, is not rebellion. After World War II, the British left India peacefully, as they couldn’t stay due to external pressures. Despite conflicts between Hindus and Muslims, no British were harmed during the independence struggle.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that educational reform is important for a religious change, but it’s just the beginning. First, people’s thinking and ideas need to change. Then, they can come together to create power and change the system. Education, preaching, and moral training help in this process. The real challenge is to take action, write, and contribute, even when it’s difficult.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed outlines that after joining Tanzeem-e-Islami, members should align their lives with Islamic teachings, attend group sessions for growth, and invite others to join, helping the organization expand. They are also encouraged to peacefully stand against wrong actions in society, aiming to build enough strength for a positive impact.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed describes how Tanzeem-e-Islami trains members through a 7-day introductory program, regular assessments, and weekly meetings focused on Quranic teachings. While there is no open resistance to the group, members often face personal challenges at home due to lifestyle changes, like leaving certain jobs or adopting conservative practices. This personal transformation creates indirect resistance within society.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that while it’s natural to feel love for one’s homeland, Islam discourages extreme nationalism. He warns against making the country the main focus of identity, which could lead to justifying wrong actions for its pride. Instead, he emphasizes a balanced approach, where love for country shouldn’t override moral and religious values.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that true faith (yaqeen wala emaan) is developed in three ways: first, by spending time with good, sincere people, which naturally strengthens faith; second, by consistently practicing religious duties, which builds conviction; and third, by studying and reflecting on the Quran, which creates a deeper, more conscious understanding of faith. These practices lead to a genuine transformation and a strong, intellectual faith.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that after Prophet Muhammad (SAW), Allah ensured Islam’s teachings would stay pure by protecting the Quran, sending people to revive the faith, and keeping a group of true believers within the ummah. This way, those seeking guidance can always find the right path, as shown by the story of Salman Farsi (RA), who searched far and wide for the truth, proving that finding true guidance often requires sincere effort.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that some hadiths are called weak because expert scholars carefully checked the narrators’ honesty. These scholars spent their lives gathering and verifying hadiths to keep only the reliable ones. He highlights that, like the Quran, the Prophet’s teachings (Sunnah) have been preserved as a miracle, giving Muslims a lasting model and uniting them in core practices like prayer.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that the Quran is a miracle because of its unmatched language, guidance for life, and scientific insights that were only discovered later. It amazed the Arabs with its beauty and wisdom, and even great poets admitted it was beyond human ability. The Quran's impact remains powerful today for both its message and depth.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that the concept of eternal life in heaven (Jannah) and hell (Jahannum) is hard for humans to fully understand due to our limited minds. He mentions two scholars, Ibn Arabi and Ibn Taymiyyah, who both agree that heaven is eternal, but hell may not be. This debate comes from different interpretations of religious texts.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Allah created the universe and humans to show His creative power. Though we may not fully understand His wisdom, humans were created with the ability to recognize Allah's greatness. The final understanding of this comes through Prophet Muhammad (SAW), whose presence was essential for the creation of the universe. Without the Prophet, the universe would not exist.

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that khanqahiat in Islam means spiritual centers focused on inner growth and helping others, without needing to leave worldly life. Rahbaniyat, on the other hand, involves complete withdrawal from society. Khanqahs (spiritual centers) have been important in spreading Islam and guiding Muslims while staying connected to society.
