About this episode
Moving mountains through ministrations, Dhikr is not just words. It is how one remembers God and subconsciously moves oneself onto the righteous path. The remembrance of God reverberates throughout Islamic history, from the tongues of the prophets to those of the common man. The remembrance of God echoed when Musa (A.S) split the sea, echoed when Hajar ran between mountains, and echoes when the common man today succumbs to ministrations. Tawakkul is the blind trust in Allah, a trust that Dhikr helps build. - A man asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ: “Which warriors are the best?” He ﷺ replied: “Those who remember Allah the most.” The man asked: “Which of those who fast are the best?” He ﷺ replied: “Those who remember Allah the most.” Then the man mentioned ṣalāh, zakāh and ḥajj, and each time the Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied: “Those who remember Allah the most.” Abū Bakr (raḍiy Allāhu ‘anhu) said to ʿUmar (raḍiy Allāhu ‘anhu): “Those who remember (Allah) have taken all the good,” at which the Messenger of Allah ﷺ remarked: “Yes, indeed!” (Aḥmad 15553)
