Delivered by Shaykh Riyadh ul Haq on Friday 17th November 2023 at Al Kawthar Academy, Leicester
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.
Below are some of the topics mentioned in this talk:
- Criticisms Faced by Abdullah ibn Mas'ud

The Stinters - A Tafsir of Surat al-Mutaffifin Part 5
The Stinters - A Tafsīr of Sūrat al-Muṭaffifīn Part 5 of 5

This final session continues to explore the fate of the dishonest (Muṭaffifīn) and their lack of belief in divine accountability. The discussion emphasizes how minor fraud in trade reflects a deeper moral and spiritual corruption, ultimately leading to their records being inscribed in Sijjīn, a place of disgrace and restriction. The concept of rān (spiritual rust) is elaborated, explaining how continuous sin blinds the heart to truth. In contrast, the righteous (abrār) have their deeds recorded in ʿIlliyyīn, a lofty place in the highest heavens, witnessed by the most honoured angels. The ultimate reward of the believers is their ability to see Allāh, while the greatest punishment for the wicked is their deprivation of this divine vision.
The discussion then shifts to the pleasures of Paradise, describing how the righteous will be granted luxurious blessings, including celestial wine sealed with musk, symbolizing purity and eternal joy. A key takeaway is the call to true competition: instead of vying for wealth, status, or material success, believers should strive for righteousness and divine pleasure.
The talk concludes by highlighting how the arrogant mockery of disbelievers towards the faithful will be reversed on the Day of Judgment. The believers, once ridiculed, will witness the downfall of their persecutors while reclining in bliss, confirming the absolute justice of Allāh.
Below are some of the topics in this talk:
- Verses 18-36 explained in detail
- Difficulty of being from the abrār
- Competition in lowly things
- Virtuous competition
- Examples of how the believers are mocked
- Muslims taunting other Muslims
- Judging others & not being responsible for anyone else
- Comments made by hypocrites on the way to Tabūk
