Finding Eternal Grace and Strength in the Midst of Sorrow
The days of beauty are dawning on us,
The sacred nights looming over us,
Every pilgrim ready to go,
To answer the call of
Labaik ya Hussain.
What beauty is this,
The world is in awe,
People of every age and race,
Walk hand in hand chanting
Labaik ya Hussain.
The beauty was created 1400 years ago,
Karbala was only a piece of land,
That got it’s honor from the pure blood,
With each grain of sand also saying
Labaik ya Hussain.
The beauty spread so far and wide,
Like a rose that bloomed,
And encapsulated every heart,
That we were the promised people who will uphold
Labaik ya Hussain.
I did not see anything but beauty,
Said a sister standing firm and strong,
That voice echoed so loud,
That every majlis and matam screams
Labaik ya Hussain.

- True self-development
True self-development by Asgar Jafferali Dhanji While physical growth is easy to see, your mind, character, and professional capability evolve in ways that are much harder to gauge. If you look back five years, you are likely not the same person you were then. You are constantly evolving, but reaching the next level of your personal development requires conscious, deliberate action. - Adl
Adl by Sheikh Fattah The concept of justice (‘Adl) occupies a foundational position in Islamic theology and ethics, serving as a lens through which the relationship between the Creator and creation is understood. In his insightful essay, “Adl – Justice and Decree,” originally published in the spring 1984 issue of the journal Nuradeen, Sheikh Fattah provides a concise yet profound exploration of this multi-faceted principle. Drawing extensively from the Holy Quran and the narrative traditions (ahadith) of the Ahlul Bayt – specifically Imam Ali and Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq—the author dismantles the complexities surrounding divine decree, free will, individual morality, and structural social justice. The text functions not merely as an academic exposition of theological doctrine, but as an ethical manifesto that bridges metaphysical truths with practical human responsibility. - Eternal Life
Eternal Life by Ayatullah Murtadha Mutahhari Ayatullah Murtadha Mutahhari’s Eternal Life is a concise but profound exploration of one of Islam’s central beliefs: that human life does not end with death. Drawing on the Qur’an, hadith, Islamic philosophy, and rational argument, Motahhari presents the Hereafter not as a distant abstraction but as the destination that gives meaning to every thought, choice, and action in this world. The book is especially valuable for readers seeking a clear, reasoned introduction to Islamic teachings on death, the soul, barzakh, resurrection, and eternal life.
