Khatira Theme
Nightly Khatira | Every Taraweeh | After the First 4 Rak‘ahs
Allah ﷻ has decreed in His wisdom that the true nobility of a person is determined by the uprightness of their heart and limbs. In contrast, harm and other evils occur at the absence of this uprightness.
“Within every human being is a Kingdom. The heart is the ruler of this Kingdom, and the rest of the body are its subjects. If the heart rules with justice and excellence, the body will perform good actions and the Kingdom will flourish. If, however, the heart neglects its duties, the body will be in a state of disobedience to Allah ﷻ and the entire Kingdom will suffer the consequences. Allah made this Kingdom so crucial that through it the eternal and everlasting dominion of the next life is either gained or lost.”
This Ramadan, we will journey together to gain deeper insights into the cultivation of this spiritual kingdom of the heart and explore how our outward actions have an impact on the state of our heart. This will allow us to clarify the wisdom and purpose of our acts of worship, ultimately drawing us closer to Allah ﷻ.
