The Blessed Rajab & Wealth & Charity: Practical Spirituality For Attaining Nearness to God (Part 19)

Are you feeling stuck in your relationship with Allah? Feeling unsure about how to progress spiritually while balancing the hustle and bustle of life?

Join us for this weekly class focused on practical spirituality. Each week, we discuss a topic to help us traverse the spiritual path and ultimately achieve nearness to Allah (SWT). The topics range from how to make intentions, devotions and daily duas (supplications), easy shortcuts to maximize your rewards, the importance of good character, how to balance spirituality as a working professional, and much, much more.

We will primarily be focusing on the text "The Book of Assistance" by the great Saint and Knower of Allah, Imam Abdullah Ibn Alawi Al Haddad. Download this book at https://mcceastbay.org/assistance

This workshop was delivered via the Muslim Community Center - East Bay (MCC East Bay) in Pleasanton, California on February 2, 2022. This seminar series is co-hosted with Lighthouse Mosque in Oakland, California.

Rajab also marks the beginning of the season leading up to our month of fasting, Ramadan. At the beginning of Rajab, the Messenger of God ﷺ would pray, "O Allah, bless us in Rajab and Sha’ban, and deliver us into Ramadan." He also said that "Rajab is the month of Allah, Sha’ban is my month, and Ramadan is the month of my community." Ask anyone who has been Muslim for a few years or more and they will likely tell you that Ramadan has a way of sneaking up on us. It is easy to neglect preparing for our fast, either through worship or making intentions, until the final nights of Sha’ban. Yet the Prophet ﷺ signals to us that now is the time to begin preparing our hearts.
