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.

This talk delves deeper into the consequences of dishonesty, the importance of accountability, and the role of belief in the Hereafter. The talk explains that taṭfīf (stinting or cheating) extends beyond trade, applying to worship, relationships, and daily interactions. A major cause of this behaviour is forgetting divine accountability. The lecture highlights scientific studies showing that people behave more ethically when they feel watched, reinforcing the Quranic warning that Allāh records all actions, even minor ones. The Book of Deeds (Kitab al-Fujjār) is kept in Sijjīn, a place of imprisonment and disgrace for those who persist in wrongdoing. The Prophet's ﷺ teachings warn that most traders will be resurrected as sinners unless they maintain truthfulness and righteousness.
The discussion also explores the rejection of the afterlife by the elites of Quraysh, particularly Walīd ibn al-Mughīrah, who recognized the Quran’s truth but refused to accept it due to his love for wealth and status. This serves as a cautionary tale about the corrupting influence of materialism. The talk emphasizes that true success lies in upholding fairness, embracing truth, and preparing for the Hereafter, rather than amassing wealth through dishonesty. The Quran consistently warns against being deceived by worldly gains, as they ultimately lead to moral downfall and divine punishment.
Below are some of the topics in this talk:
- Taṭfīf (stinting) in our relationship with Allāh
- Explanation of Verse 7: "Indeed the book of fujjār..."
- Verses 8-9: "And what do you know of sijjīn?"
- The meaning of sijjīn
- Verses 10-11: "Woe be unto the rejecters..."
- Context in Makkah when this sūrah was revealed
- Verse 12-13: "Does not reject the Day of Requital..."
- The account of al-Walīd ibn al-Mughīrah
- Love of wealth corrupting a person
- The parable of two friends in Sūrat al-Kahf
