Dr Sulieman you brought me to Allah. My fiancé is Muslim and asked me to investigate Islam. I started with Yaqueen and took my shahada in January after following you and Didiat I love Allah and Islam and finally feel loved. Everyone says fear God but I feel so safe in Allahs care finally. I give him my life. I tell everyone I know about my experience. Thank you and everyone else at Yaqeen and my amazing fiancé Sofiane Mokrane for my new awesome life. May Allah bless you all I love my Muslim sisters and brothers. Allah bless you all may Allah bless the messenger and prophets. Allah Akbar
Allah u akbar
Alhumdulillah!Btw fear of Allah is not like fearing a scary ghost or something.Its a fear that has love, its a fear that makes you careful of not doing things not loved by Allah,cz He and His Messenger SAW are your Beloved,and who wants his Beloved to be disappointed in him?
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MESSAGE! LOVED READING THIS! ALLAH BLESS US ALL WITH TREMENDOUS TREASURES! AMEN!
Fear of God means - not doing anything that will or might compromise your relationship with Allah & decrease your status in the eyes of Allah. In other words, Fear of Allah = Love for Allah.
Allahu Akbar
Me. I am the 2nd one. I changed myself overnight by Allah's mercy. I went to sleep as a born Muslim who was living as a kuffar and I woke up as a practicing Muslim. I sincerely repented and everything as they say, is history. I don't know what I did to deserve this level of mercy, love and guidance but Allah bestowed this on me. ALHAMDULILLAH. Now I absolutely hate doing whatever it is I used to do. My life has literally changed since I reverted. It's not me who is doing anything, it's Allah who is guiding me and helping me be who I truly should be. Subhan Allah. Mash Allah. Alhamdulillah. Allahu Akber. May you are also loved and guided by Allah, too. May Allah love you, forgive you, have mercy on you and may Allah protect you and grant you Jannah.

I was thinking what is my purpose or goal for my life or what is my ability in this world to make my life meaningful. Then I saw the title of this video. It made me cry so much because I nearly forgot that my Lord (swt) loves me and cares more than anyone. I should have tried to make myself His (swt) friend. For this video, thank you so much. I will make dua for you all @yaqeeninstitute members and families. Thank you so much
May Allah grant you tawheed
Same here, Alhamdulillah 😢

2) Sincerity of Repentance and the pleasure of Allah - makes you completely changed
3) major trial and you try to seek Allahs pleasure
When that storm started my mother was in the tent and her tent was among the 1st one blown away. She saw a 17 to 18 years girl in a danger. So she ran and save her. On that time she injured herself. Got few steaches on her head. My mother is 65 years old. Still is she in Modena. Going back home tomorrow. After that incident she is very sick but she finished her hajj. May Allah help her.
Azam Khan may Allah reward u and ur mom, AMEEN

I don’t know how mine happened but Allah’s mercy is overwhelming. From being polytheist, to a Christian and now a Muslim (Devoted). I remember a voice telling me in 2018 when I was in my breaking point “Serve me for 2 years and see what I make out of you” Alhamdullilah looking back at the journey I realise my story relate to surah Ad Duha. At this point I think of nothing but Allah, questioning my status with my Lord daily and hoping I get to that special place with Him. May Allah make our journey to Him easy for Us All. Aaameeen.
Believe in your Lord and He will bring you to Light.
I was crying so much the moment cristchurch family and victim was mentioned. Jazakumullah khairan Jaza, Thank you imaam,
Brother Umar Suleiman, Wallahi I don’t know your status but it looks like you are a special friend of Allah.may Allah keep blessing you and raise your status.There is something so special about you. Your words touch the hearts!
We did hajj in 2019 and we were all blessed with a beautiful rain.... ALLAHU AKBAR ALLAHU AKBAR ALLAHU AKBAR
He is as old as my son. What a son ! MashaAllah.
May Allah helps me here n hereafter n bless me with best things Ameen
May Allah accept your hajj.
Masha allah

This was a really good video. Made me get teary eyed from hearing of how merciful Allah Azzawajal truly is. Subhanallah.
Surahs to read before sleeping: 1. Read last 2 ayahs of surah al baqara. 2. Read surah al sajdah 3. Surah al mulk (protects you from the punishment of grave) 4. Surah al kafiroon 5. Surah al ikhlas, al falaq, al nas, and ayat el kursi.
Excuse me but what is Surah alsajdah responsible for I know every reason for all except this one amd jazaki allah kheir
Fatima Astra Jabir reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, would not go to sleep until he had recited the chapters, “The revelation of the Book, in which there is no doubt, from the Lord of the worlds,” (32:1) and, “Blessed is He in whose hand is the dominion, and has power over all things,” (67:1).
Tawus said, “They both have seventy more virtues than every other chapter of the Quran.”

Sh. Omar's dedication to spreading the message of Islam is truly praiseworthy. May Allah, the Most Gracious, reward him for his commitment and make his efforts a source of inspiration for many around the world. Ameen to the prayers for guidance and blessings. May Allah, the Bestower of Guidance, continue to use him as a means of spreading His message and bringing people closer to the beauty of Islam.
It makes tears flow when you can relate 😢
Al hamdu li lah rab al aalameen
الحمد لله رب العالمين، شكراً أخونا عمر 💛
It's great to see an Imam with a clear English, not to mention the concise, rational, and positive way of preaching. It's a nice development from those imams with broken English whom I have met in the US.
After my mother died my new mother was gifted to me by Allah...❣ Alhumdulilah...😇
I was blessed enough to witness all what he is describing and as soon as it started to rain I started crying couldn't believe that Allah rahmat was raining over us.
The way he talks is beautiful.
Subhanallah, I was there last year at Hajj. So profound, you really don't know who is there, or anywhere for that matter. Very humbling lecture. I love you Allah, I love you ya Rasoolallah, I love Islam!
Amin, Allahumma, Amin!
I love Allah ❤
8:30 - 12:00 GOOSEBUMPS🌙MASHA ALLAH🌙 SUBHAN ALLAH🌙
Maashallah Allahuakbar I love you more and less and more than I ever ever want to much 💖 you Allah bless you
Allah's mercy is just incredible.. Alhamdulillah..!! No word could be pronounced except Alhamdulillah
May Allah s.w.t bless this beautiful human being, bless his family and his good work.
Ameen
23:00 - 25:00 Love of the father for his daughter/ Sheikh Suleiman narrating it with tears in his eyes,..Love/mercy/compassion,..of ALLAH SUBHANA WA' T'ALLAH for us all,..💓💔
It rained gently when we were in the hajj in 2017 and there were clouds and there was gentle thunder and the trees trembled and shook when our sheikh cried and made dua, I will never forget it SubhanAllah wa behamdehee SubhanAllah hil Azeem
May Allah Bless Him Omar
I was there that day, the moment the rain hit i knew there was someone special amongst us
I made a documentary of my experiences there
i remember asking allah for guidance about 3 months ago .. and recently i came across to a video of his from the "angles in your presence" series .. i was so moved by his one video i felt like .. Allah just showee me a way to himself through Omar Sulaiman .. may Allah (swt ) blesss him and bless all mankind and solve all their lives issues ... always be humble , you don't know what a person is going through
It's such a shame he had to check his watch around 15:12. He should be allowed and able to speak on the love of Allah endlessly and eternally. Time is a disgrace. That is why I refuse to wear a watch. Islamic time > the time of man. There should be a 1000 other servants there to provide everything this man needs to get such a beautiful message out. This world is designed to keep and distract us from Allah. However , the light of Allah will never wane or diminish. Masha Allah brother. Your words are powerful. Thank you for sharing them.
Can You Imagine, we spend how much of our time helping poor animals and birds around us, ofcourse people, so many dying Dogs and Cats and Birds ,n dying in forests too, yet we lead a live of comfort, yet Allah Never ever stops His bounty on us.
For long time fear of Allah drove me away from Allah.
I am naturally a risk averse person , so i don't like putting myself in the fearful situations.Then I strarted reading Quran knowing, Allah started the whole Quran ,
A whole knew religion with the word "READ" untill the end of our time on earth. So read for many years and fell in love with the Quran .😊Theres no words describethe healing benefits of Quran , its our living communication with our living creator.little by little allah talking to us in ways our mind grasps the understanding,almost like the flutter of butterflies and the thoughtful nature of sentence structure is amazing.
I dont know why imam always say Fear allah" but in Quran Allah said " Those who are mindful of Allah. Remember when you have Allahs love , you have all the love in the universe peace.😊😊
People like him are from the almighty no doubt..this is also Allah, s help to humanity... The creator is creating such humble truthful souls to pacify us make us strong to face duniya till date to guide us in every circumstances no matter what
May Allah forgive us all and accept our Ibadat.
2019 hajj i remember i sleep bottom of the house when the times rain and the others praying outside even if they are wet with rain...Alhamdulillah all good InshaAllah
MAY ALLAH BLESS YOU BROTHER, REMEMBER MY SISTER AND MOTHER IN YOUR PRESIOUS PRAYERS. I LOST THEM.
What an amazing heart-touchin khutba ma sha Allah. Haven't come across a khutba from Sh Omar Suleiman for a while. Allahuma barik
Alhamdulielah. May Allah grant us all the ability to become His wali, Aameen
*Allah Zawwajal has given us mercy with our speakers. My family needs every drop of it in this very amoral & racist society. The beautiful green garden of Quran with it cooling waters for our red & hurting eyes*
Amin, Ya Rabb, Amin. So True!
May All-Allah guide us to always seek HIS Pleasure in all our acts and may HE always make it easy for us to attain HIS Pleasure, amin
Jazak Allah o khair
Can you do a series on 99 names of Allah swt ? Would be nice if there some insights of His name
@shukra 1963 Why would there be a Sanskrit word in Arabic language! Hindi and Arabic are from completely different languages family. Ramadhan is an Arabic word which has roots in to burn as in the potential of sins to burn away in this month. of mercy
I recommend Al-Ghazali’s “Al-Ghazali on the Ninety-nine Beautiful Names of God “, ISBN 0946621314.
Al maghrib institute has an amazing series on this. Check it out.
Check YT "Baraka Production". The videos were in Arabic but have English subs by Sheikoh Al-Hafizah Maryam (Kuwait). Published last Ramadhan but Masya Allah, I found myself always come back to those videos.
Alhamdulillah may Allah guides our brothers andcsiter muslimin and may Allah swt. Grants every truth muslim to become friends of Allah the Awliya. Inshaallah no ones will be misguidances by those Alim ulama who did not dignified the quran and hadith Qudsi of Allah ...
May Allah swt bless you abundantly Imam! This lecture has me in tears, SubhanAllah!
Jazakallahukhairan team Yaqeen for the reminder. May Allah grant us the benefit of the day of Arafah, and at the end of the day be granted the mercy of Allah on the day of judgement.
Thanks for reminding me of my Hadj Dr Suleiman I was there with my family this day I will never forget in my entire life it was my third Hadj normally in Arafat it's very hot that day just after Hadj we took lunch after that there was sand storm a few minutes after it starts raining everyone came out of tent start making duah with rain falling on you tears running on your face wondering of what was happening a sense of fear on every face all of us making duah it's the first time we have seen this may Allah SWT accept our Hadj ameen
My father was one of them. He rather would live a normal life , he did his first Hajj as a Saudi Govt VIP guest with my mother on a limousine, he Said, then sent back a year after with my mother , as a normal Hajji. He, died with the most beautiful smile, and wonderful, whitish pinkish skin tone. Thousands attended his janaza, in Bangladesh, in Azad Mosque and Babani Mosque 2 weeks ago, he qas named MD Nurunnabi Chowdhury, was a Civil Service Officer of Pakistan, a Secretary of State and Ambassador in Egypt. May all Muslim s pray for him, who never missed a salat. Gave all his village Land, his entire village on stamp paper to who ever lived there came to him, and countless others. Please pray Allah gives him jannah.
I always feel Allah's love n protection although I am not worthy of His LOVE n mercy 💞
Happy to see you everyday makes me happy. You are not only icon Muslim umma but also for non Muslim and beyond . I can't express fully how you makes everyone enjoy this life .
May Allah be with us all and all of these people, the entire ummah. Ya Rabb forgave us. Ameen
Great lesson. Thank you Allah razı olsun
Omar thank you for sharing your words left me in tears, may Allah be with you always.

Thanks for all the hard work you put together to educate us about our deen. May Allah reward all those who are involved in any way. I have a request or suggestions,
