Do You Feel Your Imaan Slipping? Watch This | Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan #AMAU
You woke up, reached for your phone before Fajr. Reels, DMs, crypto charts, news - heart still heavy. You prayed… fast. Parents' WhatsApp is still unread. You posted a Qur'an clip to your story, then checked who viewed it. By Maghrib, you're drained and wondering: why haven't I tasted the fruits of Iman yet? In this talk, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan delivers a wake-up reminder: what true Iman actually looks like, the fruits Allah promises in the Dunya and the Akhirah, why Shaytan has no authority over those who believe and rely on Allah, how Allah Himself defends the believers, and why ikhlas (sincerity) is the make-or-break behind every deed. He also shares the story of the Three Men in the Cave, and highlights the everyday obedience many of us overlook: Salah on time and Birr al-Walidayn (dutifulness to parents). If you've ever felt your Iman slipping, performed for people instead of Allah, or chased recognition more than repentance, watch this.

9Hr+ | New | Sheikh Ibn Al-Uthaymeen's Poem on Qawaid Al-Fiqhiyyah | Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan #AMAU [Audio - 2/2]
The beauty of fiqh is that it saves you from memorising 60,000 separate rulings. Instead, it teaches principles that apply to countless matters. Time to explore this treasure. Study a Manzoomah on al-Qawāʿid al-Fiqhiyyah (the legal maxims of Islamic jurisprudence) authored by Shaykh Ibn al-'Uthaymeen رحمه الله. In this explanation, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan takes us through this beautiful sub-science. It's not a set of abstract theories. These are practical principles shaping rulings on worship, contracts, business dealings, certainty and doubt, benefit and harm, and much more. You'll see how Islam doesn't list rulings for every single case, but lays down timeless maxims that apply until the Day of Judgement. From conditions and reasons in worship, to why fasting is made up while prayers aren't, to how scholars balance benefit against harm, this study opens the door to the science of fiqh. If you want to move past surface-level answers and witness the beauty and consistency of Allah's law, this poem will give you the tools to connect the dots.

Stages of Seeking Knowledge Every Muslim Must Know | Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan #AMAU
So many Muslims today are passionate about studying Islam. But let's be real: most of us start off the wrong way. We binge random lectures on YouTube, scroll through reminders on Instagram, or even ask ChatGPT to explain complex issues, thinking that's enough to make us grow. Others jump from one book to the next with no plan, memorise nothing, never revise, and want to dive into evidences and differences of opinion from day one. But that's not how the scholars sought Islamic knowledge. And that's not the path that leads to understanding. In this lesson, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan shares the blueprint for seeking knowledge the right way: sincerity before anything else, the Qur'an as your foundation, teachers over self-study, and the gradual stages every student must pass through. He explains the dangers of skipping ahead, why structure is more important than hype, and how true knowledge should raise you in rank with Allah when it's paired with action. If you've ever felt unstructured, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, this is the roadmap you've been missing.

Becoming a Steadfast Muslim in the 21st Century | Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan #AMAU
We live in a time where Muslims can lift 200kg at the gym but struggle to lift a blanket for Fajr. Where hearts drown in endless scrolling, doubts, and desires. Where practising Islam is mistaken for harshness, or where perfection is demanded until people burn out and give up. But Allah never asked you to be perfect. He asked you to be steadfast. To have Istiqamah. What does that really mean today? How do you stay on the straight path when temptations, distractions, and pressure to imitate others are everywhere? How do you protect your heart and actions - the very things Allah looks at - when they're being pulled in every direction? In this 45-minute talk, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan uncovers the reality of Istiqamah: - Why it's a gift only Allah can give, not something you earn on your own. - Why consistency matters more than perfection. - How desires grow into doubts, and doubts into leaving the Deen. - Why gentleness attracts hearts more than harshness. - How your steadfastness today decides your footing on the Sirat on the Day of Judgement. If you've ever fallen, struggled, or wondered whether you're "good enough" to stay firm on this Deen, this is for you.

25 Ways Muslim Husbands Ruin Their Own Marriage | Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan #AMAU
It doesn't always look like "mistreating" your wife. Sometimes it's cutting her off mid-sentence because you think you know what she'll say, or scrolling through your phone while she's telling you about her day, or brushing off her feelings with "you're overreacting". Little by little, these moments chip away at trust, affection, and respect until your wife feels unseen in her own home. In this video, Ustadh Abdulrahman Hassan shares 25 major mistakes Muslim men make: the kinds of actions and habits that lead to failed marriages, constant conflict, or homes with no real happiness. He highlights what the Qur'an and Sunnah teach about a husband's role, how the Prophet ﷺ treated his wives, and the practical steps every Muslim man can take to bring back mercy and love into his marriage. Whether you're preparing for marriage or already a husband, this is advice you won't get in casual talks, but it could save your marriage from quiet collapse.

They carry rulings on purity, the power of intention, the wisdom of moderation, the virtues of forgiveness and humility, and the keys to living Islam with balance and clarity. See how the speech of your Prophet ﷺ holds the answers we are still searching for.
