Religion is Na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah Part 1\nDelivered by Shaykh Riyadh ul Haq on Friday 15th January 2021 at Al Kawthar Academy, Leicester\n\nVideo: https://youtu.be/rP049YNdlQE\n\nThe famous \u1e25ad\u012bth of Tam\u012bm al-D\u0101r\u012b is often translated as, "Religion is advice." However, there is more to the meaning of these words than a simple translation. What exactly is 'na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah' and how can it be applied to All\u0101h, His Prophet \ufdfa and the believers?\n\nThis talk details the word na\u1e63\u012bhah beyond its common, but partial translation of 'advice'. The word 'nu\u1e63\u1e25' is explained; including its meaning of extracting pure honey, and several verses in the Qur\u0101n containing derivatives of the word are mentioned. Previous prophets, including the Prophet \ufdfa exercised nu\u1e63\u1e25 in all conditions and examples of these are explained in this talk.\n\nThereafter the talk explains 'na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah to All\u0101h' and how it entails placing All\u0101h above all else and not being in a deceitful relationship with Him. The sincere believers who remained behind at the battle of Tab\u016bk are mentioned as positive examples. Furthermore, our duties to All\u0101h\u2019s book are said to be similar to the Prophet\u2019s \ufdfa duties as mentioned in Surat al-Jumu\u2019ah. \n\nTowards the end of the talk, five of our duties to the Prophet \ufdfa are extracted from verses of the Qur\u0101n. Na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah to the Muslims leaders and laity is also mentioned, but very briefly.\n\nBelow are some of the topics mentioned in this talk:\n- The \u1e25ad\u012bth of Tam\u012bm al-D\u0101r\u012b about na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah\n- Meaning of na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah\n- The Prophets having nus\u1e25 for their nations \n- Antonyms of na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah\n- Na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah for All\u0101h\n- Background of na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah in S\u016brat al-Tawbah\n- Our duty to the book of All\u0101h\n- Our duty to the Prophet \ufdfa\n- Na\u1e63\u012b\u1e25ah for other believers\n\n*This talk took place during the coronavirus pandemic and the Academy was not open to the public.*\n\n**********************************************************************\n\nWebsite: www.akacademy.org\nYouTube: http://www.youtube.com/alkawtharacademy\nFacebook: www.facebook.com/alkawtharacademy\nTwitter: www.twitter.com/alkawthar\nInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/alkawtharacademy\n\n**********************************************************************
