Warning the people about the Day of Judgement, the punishment of Allah
(SWT), and the Hell fire is almost non-existent today. We worry that it
is out-of-fashion and would put people off, so we avoid talking about
them. However the Qur'an and the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW)
focus more on the warning than the glad tidings. Why is that?

"Jazakumullahu khayran. I can't thank you enough for the opportunity. I am so impressed by the Sheikh, subhanallah, mashaAllah. A very rare example of tradition fused with awareness of the environment and reality while not compromising God consciousness. If only there were more like him. Questions, I'm so glad we can ask them even if it's not about the sura. Yes, how else are we to learn from his wisdom and experience if we don't ask? The issues facing Muslims in the West are so many and so confusing and I just love the fact that he does not have an inferiority complex about Islam. It's really sad to see psychologically defeated scholars start throwing away tradition in the name of progress and fitting in. Sheikh Akram Nadwi gives you the sense that the real life is in the hereafter so don't have to get so tied up with the philosophies and controversies that sometimes take away our attention from the real purpose. The onus is on us, are we being pious?" - Aisha Barkatulla, Cambridge
"How magnificent to have spent a weekend in the company of the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam and his companions, reading and studying their ahadeeth. I feel as though I was transported to their times and have returned with renewed strength and resolve to continue the work we need to do in the ‘Daar ud-Da’wah’ we live in. I am sitting here with Ijaazah in hand feeling honoured that Allah allowed me to be a student of Sheikh Akram Nadwi and through him find some connection with some of the great scholars of our past. From his poignant scholarly anecdotes, to his emphatic exhortations, punctuated with Urdu and Persian poetry; studying with the Sheikh is a truly enriching experience. I’m actually learning a lot from him both about rectifying myself and the most important focal points for that and rectifying some of the causes of the downfall of our Ummah today. Without resorting to alienating any particular group or school of thought, the Sheikh is not afraid to hold a mirror up to what needs changing in our communities and in our times. I liked the balance of holistic spiritual principles and finer technical details Sheikh also discussed and his lessons are suitable for serious students of knowledge and people who are in the early stages of their journey. I look forward to future courses. I found the crèche facility to be very useful. I would have found it very difficult to attend without it. The venue was great and respected the privacy of brothers and sisters. May Allah make knowledge a proof for us and not against us. Ameen" - Fatima Barkatullah, London (Testimonial on the Forty Hadith Course)
"This course has really been far beyond my expectations Sheikh Akram has given me a new perspective on the topics covered, including a lot of wisdom and bringing the topic away from the superficial discussions to the core essential foundations that need to be understood by every da'ee. It has completely change my perspective on the inner dimension of a da'ee and the outer expectations of a da'ee. I have rarely seen that depth of understanding when it comes to the dawah. May Allah bless him, increase him in knowledge and wisdom and allow all the da'ees to benefit from his wisdom and his understanding." - Steeve Brador, London

"We think that warning is harsh and unfashionable so we only give people the good news. But we don't realise that warning is part of the good news. You strike and alert people's minds with the warning (or bad news) so that they would be eager to receive the good news. Good news alone without warning has little effect. This can be seen in the Christian tradition when the Privy Council decided that Hell fire is not an essential part of Christian belief, opposing Jesus' teachings. Fear of God should be dominant in people's minds and that is why Prophet Muhammad (SAW) started his mission with warning. We will learn this in detail in Surah Al-Muddaththir" - Shaykh Dr Mohammad Akram NadwiComing up this Saturday in Cambridge (and Worldwide through live on-line access), for the first time in the UK, a detailed explanation of Surah Al-Muddaththir by Shaykh Dr Mohammad Akram Nadwi, one of the foremost scholars and thinkers of the Western world today.
<<You,
wrapped in your cloak, arise and give warning! Proclaim the greatness
of your Lord; cleanse yourself; keep away from all filth; do not be
overwhelmed and weaken; be steadfast in your Lord’s cause>> [Surah Al-Muddaththir 74:1-7]

"The Magnificent Journey continues... Today's
seminar was yet another awesome seminar in the series with exceptional
crowd and amazing insights from Dr Mohammad Akram Nadwi. This is truly a
historic seminar series on the explanation of The Quran and is
redefining our understanding and relationship with the Book of ALLAH.
The emphasise of Dr Nadwi on establishing our connection with ALLAH and
utilising the space given to us for recognising one God, is the key
highlight of these seminars. Each seminar begins by strongly negating
the wrong practises which have been introduced in the true teachings of
worshipping one ALLAH and then builds on it by inviting us to ponder on
the sings of ALLAH and get closer to our Rabb. Truly inspiring series, I
would strongly recommend everybody including men, women and families to
attend the Magnificent Journey Seminars as these are life changing and
truly install this urge of loving the Book of ALLAH. The subtle nuances
of the language which make the Qur'an such a powerful speech are
beautifully explained by Dr Akram Nadwi in a nice balanced way keeping
the things simple and interesting at the same time. His tremendous
scholarships of Hadith literature and exceptional skills of Arabic
language make this series a unique experience and a historic event in
the city of Cambridge." - Awais Ahmed Awan, Cambridge
