Brother Abdul Jaleel Mustafaa spoke about yaqeen: certainty and steady trust in Allah. He encouraged us to strengthen that trust through Allah’s Book, the Prophet’s example, prayer, and reflection on Allah’s signs. He reminded us that the masjid is a place to build community and care for one another throughout the week. A brother’s gentle reminder to pray two raqas showed him how meaningful it is when someone cares about our Hereafter. He also urged us to remember Allah after hardships pass and to keep helping our children learn about Allah, whatever their age.

  1. When something feels difficult, what helps you remember Allah?
  2. How could you gently help a friend or sibling do something good?
  3. What would you enjoy learning about Allah together as a family?
