Parenting Style and Our Relationship With God: The Influence of Parental Love on Our Perception of God
Why do some people accept Allah’s sovereignty intellectually, but not spiritually? Why do they struggle to surrender to His decrees and commands? We believe that at the core of this spiritual struggle is a distortion in people’s perceptions of Allah. A distorted image of God fosters misunderstandings of the intent behind His commands and decrees, and subsequently rebellion.The aim of this paper is to unpack how divergent understandings of God develop and, in turn, impact our worship, surrender to Him, and religious doubts.Note: The audio files are generated using AI technology.

Is the Qur’an Still Relevant Today? The Timeless Universality of Qur’anic Teachings
The Qur’an was revealed long ago in a very different context. Some verses were revealed in direct response to specific events, addressing particular people and scenarios. Others are concerned with the prophets and nations of the past. How does the Qur'an continue to be relevant for us in the modern age?Note: The audio files are generated using AI technology.

In Hardship and in Ease: How to Rely on God
Allah does not send us trials without also giving us the means to seek relief and to make our success easy. The real test of hardship goes beyond worldly concern and discomfort and extends to how we choose to respond to it. So, how do we overcome what seems beyond our comprehension and control? How do we overcome anxiety, fear of the unknown, and feeling isolated, while finding purpose and solace?Note: The audio files are generated using AI technology.

The Prophet's ﷺ Marriage to Zaynab bint Jaḥsh
The Prophet’s ﷺ marriage to Zaynab bint Jaḥsh (rA) stands unique among all of his marriages because of its explicit pronouncement in the Qur’an. Despite the stated theological, social, and legal goals the Qur’an posits as the reason for its contraction, the marriage has remained a topic of contention for centuries. This paper examines the many internal and external contradictions that characterize the story, many of which render the lovestruck narrative logistically unfeasible. It will illustrate that, far from a marriage of convenience based on passion, it was a necessary one to enact social and specifically marital reform.Note: The audio files are generated using AI technology.
