Asalaamu’ alaykum! We’d like to cordially invite you all to our final major event of Spring’15, •Conquering Your Temptations: Practicing Self Restraint• ft. Ustadh Mohammed Almathil and Dr. Raymond B. Murray.

It should be every man and woman’s goal to be abstinent from worldly pleasures and to fight their desires since it is impossible for the soul to rise and ascend if it dominates over its desires and whims. Whether it be praying five times a day, fasting during the month of Ramadan, or “lowering your gaze”. If a believer wishes to remain steadfast upon traveling towards the path of Allah; he must conquer his temptations for the sake of gaining Allah’s pleasure in the next world. This struggle of self-perseverance and modesty can either make us in this dunyah, or break us.
Join us to learn how to not let worldly temptations get into your heart, and staying sincere on the path of our beloved Lord.

It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) stood up to deliver a sermon and one of the things that he said was:
“This world is fresh and sweet, and Allah will make your successive generations therein, so look at what you do and beware of (the temptations of) this world and beware of (the temptations of) women.”

In Surat Al Qasas, Verse 50, Allah says: “Who is more astray than one who follows his desire without guidance from Allah?”
