The Rites of Umrah - Mustafa George

There are many books and audios on how to perform Umrah, from the legislation of Islam, some of which go into a vast amount of detail. Here is a lecture that Mustafa George (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) delivered to the 1446 Umrah Trip from Masjid Rahmah, Newark, NJ. 

I would call this audio "Umrah Guide 101".  A simple, yet practical guide on how to perform Umrah. He (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) covered many of the modern day issues that may arise and their solutions.

I highly recommend that everyone take some time out to listen to it.

The Life of Shaykh Muqbil bin Haadee al-Wadi'ee - Abu Isma'eel Mustafa George

Here is a beautiful biography of the Muhaddith of Yemen Abu AbdurRahman Muqbil ibn Haadee al-Wadi'ee (rahimahullah Ta'ala) that was narrated by Abu Isma'eel Mustafa George (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) & was found (I believe) on his website.

By Allah's permission, I met the Shaykh (rahimahullah Ta'ala) in his hotel room in Makkah at the end of August 2000 when I went with my mother to perform Umrah.  One of the most memorable meetings of my life.  That was the same time I met Shaykh Rabee' al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) for the first time.

I narrate this often to show people the love and trust between the ulema.  I asked Shaykh Muqbil (rahimahullah Ta'ala) if he could give me some advice for the brothers in the UK?  The Shaykh (rahimahullah Ta'ala) told me to go and ask Shaykh Rabee'(hafidhahullah Ta'ala)  to advise me or when he returned to Yemen I should call him and he would give me some advice over the phone.  From the qadr of Allah, only a few months later, he (rahimahullah Ta'ala) returned to his Creator.

The audio file has been digitally cleaned up a little and is now being presented here for people to benefit from.

Valentine's Day - A Pagan Practice - Abu Suhailah 'Umar Quinn

This is a lecture that was delivered by our brother & Abu Suhailah 'Umar Quinn (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) on the 13th of February 2014.

The original recording that I uploaded more than 5 years ago with the permission of our Ustadh (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) is being re-released after having been cleaned up for both quality and sound level.

He (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) said (in this audio): "Arabs, they say: "The worst of afflictions are those that make you laugh."

It is a laughable calamity that you will find Muslims profiting on Valentine's Day, celebrating Valentine's Day and acknowledging Valentine's Day."

A timely reminder for us all about the origins of this practice that many ignorant Muslims knowingly or unknowingly participate in.

Some Etiquettes When Calling a Scholar - Shaykh Arafat al-Muhammadi

Are there any mannerisms a person should follow when phoning the scholars, and who should put the phone down first, at the end?

He (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) gave the following answer that was translated by Abu Ishaaq Nadeem Ahsah-Shah (hafidhahullah Ta'ala):
