This week, Paul Salahuddin Armstrong reflects on Surah al-Kahf (27–31), which contrasts truth and falsehood, fleeting success and lasting faith. Real success lies not in power or wealth, but in sincere service, humility, and integrity guided by the Quran. May Allah make us steadfast.

On Haji Ali Bukhari’s blessed Urs, may his luminous spirit awaken love, mercy and remembrance, guiding seekers beyond the self toward the eternal Beloved.

It is true, we never know when we may lose access to technology in this "connected" age. Physical books are critical.

Sheikh Nurjan has literature that shares his deep knowledge. Stock up on books like the one below, while you mostly can take the internet for granted!

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ has been granted the highest of stations by Allah (the Divine) and nowhere is it clearer than in the heart of the Holy Qur'an, Surat YaSeen. It is through Prophet Muhammad's ﷺ light...

The horror of Oct 7, 2023 was an unspeakable tragedy. And…we must beware of “commemorations” which decontextualize that horrific day and/or ignore the catastrophic, exponential magnitudes of death and destruction unleashed since.

Decades of occupation & failed/sabotaged “peace processes”, a divide/rule policy which helped create/support H*mas, the horrors of Oct 7 itself, & the now 2-yrs-running genocidal obliteration of Gaza (& further tightening of deadly grip on WB) since - all deserve historically truthful commemoration.

Both Israelis & Palestinians have suffered terribly. All deserve compassion & concern. And…one can’t ignore (although many of today’s 2-yr commemorations will try) the history, diff in scale, or power dynamics at work, nor the disastrously failed leadership which brought us & keeps us here.
Anyone who doesn't quit CBS is fully complicit in the move to fascist "news."

In Sufism, the search for the Divine is an inward journey of love, remembrance, and surrender, where the seeker discovers the Beloved hidden within the heart.

The real problem is, Democrats don't want to give basic healthcare to undocumented immigrants -- any more than Republicans.
I'm sorry, but what's wrong with giving health care to immigrants? Republicans don't even want to give health care to citizens, but I don't understand the argument against keeping people who contribute billions of dollars to the economy healthy. It's also less expensive in the long run.

I get plenty of hate mail. But I don’t stay silent. I try to make space for truth. To offer clarity where there’s confusion. To model what dignity and evidence-based discourse can look like in a world addicted to rage.

I respond to two hateful messages here:

I've never considered myself particularly religious, but I've become increasingly convinced of the truth of a thing we might call a soul; primarily through my reading and study, but also from being made to bear witness to the behaviours of people whose have clearly deposed and abandoned their own.
Van Jones repeats “dead Gaza baby” as a punch line. New York Times columnistThomas Friedman laughs along.

More people power at #Bradford2025 from street bands performing at HONK. Great collaborations from local bands like Punjabi Roots and the Peace Artists with bands from all over the world. Thank goodness the weather held up.
