Through ayat 102 to 104 of Surah Al Imran, he lays out the Quran’s formula for an Ummah that feels broken. It begins with the individual: being mindful of Allah as He deserves, which only becomes possible when we stop obeying reluctantly and find real peace in surrender. يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنتُم مُّسْلِمُونَ (3:102).

From there, we hold on to Allah’s rope together, without letting disagreement turn into division, and remember where we were before Allah guided us. Finally, change does not wait for millions. It comes through a few sincere people who take up a good cause and give themselves to it.

Nothing actually changed about what Allah gave you. The only thing that changed was what you compared it to.

That is how the mindset of Qarun can begin. Gratitude gets replaced by comparison, and suddenly what once felt like a blessing feels inadequate. Then the goal becomes getting more, not because you need it, but because you need to feel ahead of someone else.

Firstly, we’re continuing with our Deeper Look journey, this time covering a very challenging, yet rewarding, study of Surah An-Nur. This will be a live class in the coming months, which will then be published on Bayyinah TV post-Ramadan insha’Allah.

Meanwhile, our team are continuing our intensive exploration of Quranic psychology and building a reference resource built with psychologists, counselors and scholars in mind. The goal is something imams and practitioners can actually use when they sit with a teen who is suicidal or someone who is deeply depressed.

Later, we’ll double down on our journey through Quranic economics. Every economic system starts from a theory of what a human being is, and he tells the story of a social media figure who built a platform around the seven deadly sins.

Finally, Ustadh Nouman provides a sneak peak on Quranic sociology and explains why Muslim family values are more distinct than we often assume.

Instead, Allah was also teaching them about divorce, inheritance, children and justice within the family.

Why? Because a community cannot defend itself from threats outside if it is already collapsing from injustice within. Protecting Allah’s laws inside our homes is part of protecting the Ummah itself.

“I want to wear hijab.”

That moment became much bigger than changing how she dressed. Growing up, Islam had often been experienced through community, rules and routine. Hijab became one of the first major decisions where faith felt entirely personal. No family pressure. No guilt. No one convincing her. Just a realization that she wanted her life to be shaped less by what people expected of her and more by whether Allah was pleased with her.

And that decision did not stop with her. It changed how she raised her daughters, how she understood confidence and eventually became a means for other women struggling with hijab to take their own first step.

Sometimes Allah places the answer in your heart before you even know you were searching for it.

“I want to wear hijab.”

That moment became much bigger than changing how she dressed. This is the story of Kerina Mohammed from Trinidad and Tobago. Growing up, Islam had often been experienced through community, rules and routine. Hijab became one of the first major decisions where faith felt entirely personal. No family pressure. No guilt.

The validation came when students experienced the program and began asking him to bring it to other cities. Word of mouth grew because people found genuine value in what they had experienced.

Praise can tell you that something is working. Criticism can tell you where it still needs work.

Listen carefully to the people you are trying to serve. Their feedback can help refine your product in ways you may never see on your own.

“If you are thankful, I will give you more” [Surah Ibrahim - 14:7]
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When Allah instructed Prophet Musa (AS) to remind his people of Allah’s favor upon them, when once upon a time they were under severe persecution from Fir’awn and now they’ve been freed, we can see a mindset that Allah is teaching here:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don’t focus on your past traumas, but focus on how Allah relieved you from them. This type of gratitude has the power to change our lives. With such gratitude, Allah has promised to give us more.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This doesn’t take away from the fact that the trials and tribulations took place, but shifts the focus to the present instead of living in the past.

His success was not innocent. According to the explanation in this lecture, he benefited by helping the system that was harming his own community.

That changes the question we ask about wealth. It is not simply, *”How much did you make?”* It is also: What did it cost? Who was harmed? What did you have to compromise to get there?

Not every form of success deserves to be celebrated.

Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan explains how the slander against the Prophet’s ﷺ family in Madinah was started by a small group with an agenda, and how Allah placed most of His emphasis on those who carelessly passed it along.

Today you don’t even have to speak. A few taps can ruin someone’s career, their family or their relationship with their children. It might even get you more views.

Before you share, ask yourself: am I helping put out the fire or feeding it?
