A Simple, yet Powerful Reminder by Br. Jalal ibn Sa’eed

Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh,

As the last 10 nights of Ramadhan are now upon us, I wanted to share a short and simple yet extremely powerful lecture given by Br. Jalal ibn Sa’eed. This lecture is a brief tafseer of Surat At-Takaathur and is only about 10 minutes long; subhanAllah, it goes straight to the heart and hits the nail on the head. May Allah protect us from getting caught up in this dunya, especially during this blessed month, and allow us always to remember the true purpose of our creation.

The Nasheed in the background is “Farshy AlTurab” sung by Meshary Alarada. The “nasheed video” can be found here:
