Video: https://youtu.be/zeHKoO-fElI
The talk centres on the profound legacy of ʿAbdullāh ibn Masʿūd (r.a), one of the most trusted companions of the Prophet ﷺ, exploring his extensive knowledge and its enduring influence within Islamic scholarship. ʿAbdullāh ibn Masʿūd was depicted as a key figure whose teachings shaped significant schools of thought, particularly the Hanafi school of Fiqh, and his role in Kufa as a lead teacher established a foundation for subsequent scholars. Despite facing some criticisms from contemporary figures, the talk underscores that many misconceptions arise from ignorance about scholarship and hadith transmission.
Furthermore, the discussion elaborates on the geographical spread and historical context behind the four main Islamic schools of thought, illustrating how ʿAbdullāh ibn Masʿūd's teachings were instrumentally passed down through numerous layers of scholars, culminating in what is known today as the Hanafi school.
The talk emphasizes the importance of unity, respect for differences, and the need to acknowledge the invaluable contributions of the sahaba and their successors who have preserved the teachings of Islam through generations. The message calls for a renewed appreciation and understanding of Islamic teachings, grounding responses to criticisms in knowledge-based dialogue and respect.

Seeking & Striving for Religious Success Part 2 of 2
Delivered by Shaykh Riyadh ul Haq on Friday 14th July 2023 at Al Kawthar Academy, Leicester
Video: https://youtu.be/1POf31p0Soc
This talk emphasizes the significance of striving in both personal and religious endeavours, underscoring the notion that achievement in any form—be it worldly or spiritual—demands earnest effort and sacrifice. The talk cites the struggles and sacrifices made by the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, illustrating that his perseverance in achieving success for the Ummah serves as a model for others. It highlights Allah’s rewards for sincerity and struggle, reinforcing that true accomplishment is inextricably connected to tireless effort, as seen in the Prophet's ﷺ long nights of prayer and commitment to his mission.
Throughout the discussion, various anecdotes about historical figures and contemporary students illustrate the value of sincere effort over natural ability alone. The talk provides caution against critical attitudes towards others' faith and actions, as it detracts from one's own journey of self-improvement. The discourse culminates in a call to actively engage in seeking knowledge, committing to worship, and maintaining momentum through voluntary acts of devotion, suggesting that without such endeavour, individuals risk stagnation or regression in their spiritual pursuits.
Below are some of the topics mentioned in this talk:
- Struggles of the Prophet ﷺ
- Constant revision as part of seeking & striving
- Abstaining from sin when seeking knowledge
- The struggles of the Prophet ﷺ receiving revelation
- Emphasis on performing nafl acts of ibadah
- Deeds create momentum
- Avoid criticising others
