Session 4: An Easy Resurrection

• Opens with reflection on strategies and techniques used when going through difficult times
• Explores outcome of rejection through understanding that Allah destroyed peoples far mightier who built strong civilisations and roamed lands searching for rizq, yet when torment came they desperately sought refuge with no escape, reflecting on whether we subconsciously think wealth and power will protect us
• Discovers that the reminder is for those who have three conditions: a mindful heart (qalb), directing their sense of hearing completely to the One who is speaking (alqa al-sam’), and having their hearts and minds present during the experience (shahid), reflecting on why this verse mentions “one with a heart” when we all have hearts
• Learns from Ibn al-Qayyim’s wisdom that to benefit from the Quran one must gather the heart when it is recited, focus hearing, and act like being directly addressed by Allah, as it is an address from Him upon the tongue of His Messenger ﷺ
• Explores interacting with the Quran through four steps: tartil (recitation), tafsir (understanding), tadabbur (reflecting), and tatbiq (applying)
• Practises tadabbur through three questions for reflection: what is Allah telling me in this verse, how does this apply to my life now, and what action will I take based on this
• Understands that reciting the Quran as it should be recited means the tongue, mind, and heart all take part together, where the tongue’s duty is to pronounce letters correctly and recite beautifully, the mind’s duty is to explore meanings, and the heart’s duty is to take heed and be responsive with alarm and eagerness to comply
• Reflects on connection to the start through understanding that Allah created the heavens, earth, and everything between in six days without being touched with fatigue (lugub, not even an ounce of tiredness), understanding the reason for revelation and reflecting on why creation is mentioned again and what Allah is proving
• Discovers the remedy part one through being patient with what people say and glorifying the praises of Allah before sunrise and before sunset, discussing why Allah asks for patience, what sabr truly is, and why Allah sends trials
• Understands sabr as endurance, contentment with Allah’s decree, persevering towards goals, and not losing control of oneself, recognising that sabr is not passive but rather active perseverance in the face of obstacles whilst staying focused and self-controlled during challenges
• Engages in reflection activity on recent struggles (family disagreements/misunderstandings, work difficulties/high stress, religious personal struggles/criticism from others, Islamophobia discrimination/negative remarks), examining how one reacted, whether frustration took over, what the outcome was, and how one could have acted with sabr
• Explores the remedy part two through understanding that tasbih and hamd are powerful weapons, that morning and evening dhikr connects physical signs around us to our Creator, that when glorifying Allah one has a direct link with Him enabling contentment, reassurance, and patience, committing to setting a daily adhkar routine, and reflecting on how dhikr has helped during difficult times
• Discovers the remedy part three through glorifying Allah during part of the night and after prayers, understanding that Allah emphasises the night frequently in the Quran, that whilst the body rests through sleeping the soul rests through qiyam, that al-sujud indicates salah with sujud being the most important part, that adhkar after salah includes the Prophet ﷺ immediately saying astaghfirullah, and that this could also refer to sunnah salahs after fard
• Returns to back to the Final Day when the caller will call from a near place (Zamakhshari mentions the rock of Al-Quds as the closest part of earth to sky and centre of earth) so the call reaches everyone equally at the same time
• Reflects on the mighty blast when all will hear it in all truth on the Day of emergence from graves
• Understands the royal We through repetition emphasising that it is certainly Allah Who gives life and causes death, and to Him is the final return
• Contemplates back to the point when the earth will split open letting people rush forth, understanding that gathering will be easy for Allah, reflecting on how this verse makes one feel
• Discovers the All-Aware knows best what people say, that our beloved Prophet ﷺ was not there to compel belief, that guidance comes from Allah alone, that our role is to share the truth trusting the outcome is in His hands, and reflecting on how we are conveying Allah’s message and whether we are giving it its due right
• Understands the Quran as the best reminder, that we need to constantly turn to it and reflect on it, that the Quran is our methodology and fuel needed to navigate all of life’s challenges, discussing who benefits from the reminder
• Reflects deeply on how relationship with the Quran has changed over the last four weeks and what one wants the relationship to look like going forwards
