If She is Divorced in a Non-Islamic Court, it is Valid! - Abdulilah Lahmami

The following benefit was extracted from the series titled: Biography of Prophet Muhammad recorded by Abdulilah Lahmami (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) at Markaz Muadh ibn Jabal in Slough. 

How many times have we heard that a brother has divorced his first wife in a non-Muslim courtroom so that he can marry above sister from outside the country & bring her in?  All this takes place whilst still continuing to live with her in the (ex) marital home.

How many times have we heard that in his efforts to take her back he has convinced her into believing that the divorce he gave her in a civil courtroom was never valid?  Then continues living with her as if they never got divorced at all in the first place.

Listen to this clip, may Allah enable us to benefit from that which we hear, Aameen.
Further Clarification: 

Abdulilah Lahmami (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) sent me an audio on the 29th of April 2023, requesting that it be added as a further clarification.

Let it Go! - Abu Uwais Abdullah Ali

Here s a lecture we all need to listen to! Even those people who have acquired the Arabic language yet may not listen to English lectures in general, take some time out, listen to it but more importantly contemplate over the message that one of the pioneers of Salafi Dawah in the West in the late 80's, early 90's, Abu Uwais Abdullah Ali (rahimahullah Ta'ala) intended to convey.  

Once you have done this, put into action the things you need to do in order to implement those changes.

Studying Issues Related to the Subject of Mental Health - Mustafa George

Here is question that was addressed by Mustafa George (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) during the conference titled: Actions are the Fruits of Knowledge Seminar - Masjid Ash-Shura (October 2024).

The question asked was as follows:

We are living in an era where it is said that there are many cases of mental illness. Also, we have seen a rise in Muslims, especially women, entering in to career jobs with good intent to benefit others who struggle with such illness and/or disorders, such as the field of therapy,  psychology, mental health, coaching and psychiatry.  

The concern is regarding those amongst them who are not well-grounded in the basic foundations of the deen and what is necessary to distinguish between what is beneficial in those sciences and the likes.

He (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) gave the following detailed answer:
Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever invites to guidance will be rewarded like those who follow him in the guidance are rewarded, and that will not decrease the reward of those who have followed him." [Collected by Imām Muslim]
