Bilal Philips - Foundations of Islamic Studies Part 03 *NEW*

Description:

This module discusses different types of shirk committed in the major areas of tawheed, in different religions and their versions of God, and even those who deny the creation God commit shirk as they have turned other things equal to God. How our prophet sallallahu'alayhiwasallam warned us of Riyaa (the shirk of showing off when doing good deeds), and how it more hidden black ant creeping on a black stone in the middle of a moonless night - so we must be careful of this shirk.

Bilal Philips - Foundations of Islamic Studies Part 05 *NEW*

Description:

This lecture disccuses the issue of why did Allah create us? and why does Allah command us to worship Him? If the whole world worshipped Allah it would NOT increase Him in any way, if the whole world refused to worship Allah it would NOT decrease Him in anyway. Worshipping Allah is a need we have, Allah does not need us to worship Him. Worshipping is a need for us to get to Paradise, the purpose of our existance. The shaykh continues to discuss what is worship, defines the true meaning of worship in Islaam and mistakes made in worship
