"...Knowledge is the discerning proof of what is right and what is wrong, and it is the positive force that will help you surmount the trials of comfort, as well as those of hardships. Knowledge is your most powerful sword against your enemy, and finally, it is your most dignifying raiment in the company of your close companions."
-- Mu'aadh ibn Jabal, radi' Allaahu 'anhu
Before a student of knowledge masters the complexities of Arabic grammar, the intricacies of fiqh, or the details of hadeeth criticism, he or she must have firm knowledge and belief in the fundamentals of our deen. Our 'aqeedah is the pillar by which our deen stands firm, the fertile land from which all of our actions blossom, and it is the foundation from which all other Islamic sciences grow.
'Aqeedah is linguistically derived from the term 'aqadah' - a verb which means "to hold fast to" or "to establish". According to our scholars, 'aqeedah is the firm creed and beliefs that one's heart is fixed upon without any wavering or doubt. Are we certain about these beliefs to which our hearts should be tied? How well do we know the fundamental tenets of Islam, relating to our eman in Allah (swt), in the prophets, the books, the angels, the Last day and Qadr [fate]?
Imam Abu Haneefah, rahimahullah, called his work on 'aqeedah "al-Fiqh al-Akbar" (The Greater Understanding), while he referred to shari'ah as simply, "the understanding of science". This series of lectures is an opportunity to grasp this 'greater understanding', to grant us deeper awareness and knowledge about the crucial beliefs that form the skeleton of Islam, and to tie our hearts to these truths.

Shaikh yasir looks dashing with such a beautiful beard full of Noor
Nice informative video that only expresses the truth and nothing else. Free from politics, hatred, and biased opinions. Thanks for this show and uploading the video.
i mean
may Allah protect us from this evil Ameen!!
May god protect and allow the true knowledge to reach all.
Mash'allah! I put this on our site for kids and adults and they enjoyed the video!
WOW! This was a GREAT video, very informative an eye opener!
Awesome! Jazak ALLAH for enlightening our minds :)
@Shamoono I also accept that asking Jin or performing some kind of Magic is not acceptable. But Magic is totally different from Astrology. There is no magic in Astrology. Study of Astrology is a scientific study of the movements of Planets. Prediction is also totally based on the placement of stars in one's chart. Allah has given us intelligence and whatever honest and truthful decisions we take using that God given intelligence is not prohibited. @Khalifahklothing's interpretation is wrong.
THIS was a GREAT video! Shukran, Jazak Allah Gair.
Yesterday in a Mosque, someone was an excorsist, he said in the mosque "I am Shaytaan" in Arabic... The Scholar who was giving a lecture drove the satan out of him.. strange things, since then, i want to know everything about this subject..
how do i get a free copy of hadith?
l need help
But I don't get the significance of why a prayer wouldn't be accepted for specifically 40 days? I don't get that? Because I mean if the extent of belief in God through a prayer is the same right that when we pray shouldn't matter? So why do we have to believe and accept as a muslim that its specifically 40 days?
Interesting. I do have a question. I know he said that magicians should be put to death. Is that still applicable if the person doing magic repents and turns to God?
@khalifahklothing Does weather forecasting come under the heading of astrology or claiming to know the unseen?
and i heard that also reading about astrology or zodiacal signs are not permissble. so does that mean that when i read about zodiacal signs in wikipedia and about the twelve signs, my prayers will now not be accepted for 40 days? please clarify brother.
@shamoono They don't consciously know of this, but if you ask them they'll tell you that they are 'inspired' by the heavenly 'gods' or 'spirits' who unravel the future in front of them and then they will judge it and tell you according to their experiences.
The Following video proves that the Prophet peace be upon Him had never been a victim of witchcraft:
