Introducing "Majalis Ilmiyyah", our brand new series on issues that matter to students of Islamic knowledge. In every episode, our teachers discuss topics students rarely hear about on social platforms: the challenges, the methods, and the moments of growth that unfold within circles of knowledge.

These conversations, often discussed only among serious full-time students of knowledge, are now brought to you so that every aspiring learner can benefit and walk that path with understanding.

In this first episode, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble and Sheikh Abu Bakr Al-Khalafi open that door with a deep discussion about books, the lifelong companion of every student’s journey.

Together, they explore:
- How should a student build their library?
- What is the right way to approach and read a book?
- How do scholars choose the right print and commentary, and how should a student approach them?
- How can reading with purpose shape who you become as a student of knowledge?

If you have ever felt lost between bookshelves, unsure how to study or what to read next, this episode will help you find direction, with the permission of Allah.

When people stop replying. When doors stay closed no matter how many times you knock. Like many others, you probably return to one thing: You make wudu. You raise your hands… or you fall into sujood.

“Ya Allah…” and instead of words, only tears come out.

Because in your weakest moments, you need Him the most. You know that He’s aware of what you’ve lost, what you’ve tried to hide, what still hurts.

You realise He’s the only one who truly knows you… but do you know Him?

That’s where this journey begins.

Knowing the Names and Attributes of Allah - a new AMAU series where Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble explains Fiqh al-Asma al-Husna by Sheikh Abdur Razzaq al-Badr (حفظه الله).

In this first lesson, you’ll uncover why this knowledge is the foundation of Iman, why every prayer, every du’a, every act of worship stands or falls on how well you know your Lord. You’ll learn what it truly means to have fiqh of Allah’s Names, and how knowing Him transforms everything - your worship, your patience, your peace.

Because once you truly know who He is… you’ll never feel lost again.

This dunya deceives you while death calls your name.

In this deep-rooted journey of tazkiyah, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble resumes his series on purifying the soul from the piercing poetry of Abu Ishaq Al-Ilbiri (459 AH), rediscovering how this Andalusian poet's verses expose the dunya’s deception - all of which will be taught in detail in the Student of Knowledge program at AMAU Academy.

Learn why we still mention Imam Bukhari's name 1200 years after his death, yet forget the wealthy from last week. You'll understand why your Iman feels weak and how to renew it, discover how knowledge becomes your guardian while wealth requires guarding, and see why even righteous people fall into Shaytan's traps without proper Islamic knowledge.

So the question comes to be: A thousand years from now, will anyone remember your name? The scholars live on through their knowledge while the wealthy are forgotten. Choose your legacy before your choice is taken away.

A man once asked ‘Abdullah Ibn Masʿūd رضي الله عنه: “Tell us about the Hellfire. What is it like?” He replied: “If you were to see it, your heart would be dislodged from its place.”

Jahannam is real. It exists as you read this. It’s waiting.

Its terror goes beyond imagination. Flames that crush the bones, melt the skin, and burn to the heart... only for the skin to return and burn again. Chains that shackle every limb. Boiling tar that coats the body. Molten drink that tears the insides apart while screams echo in despair, unanswered.

In this gripping reminder, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble takes you deep into the Qur’an and hadith that uncover the Fire’s horrors like you’ve never heard before: the angels that drag people on their faces, the seven gates each awaiting its share, and the endless punishments that drive its inmates to beg for death… only to hear:

“Burn in it, and don’t speak to Me.”

This isn’t a talk to play in the background. This is the reminder that could save you from the fire whose fuel is men and stones.

Watch it. Fear it. Change before it’s too late.

“Don’t take it literally.” “That would be Tashbeeh.” “Allah doesn’t really have a face, hand, or anger — it’s metaphorical.”

You’ve heard these claims. Maybe in a lecture. Maybe in online keyboard wars. Maybe in a casual conversation.

But are they true?

In this session, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble explains Tawheed al-Asma wa as-Sifat — belief in Allah’s Names and Attributes — with structure and proof, just as it was understood by the Salaf of this Ummah.

You’ll learn:
- What it means to affirm Allah’s Names and Attributes without denial, distortion, or resemblance
- Why the Qur’an and Sunnah speak clearly — and why that’s enough for the believer
- How deviant groups like the Jahmiyyah, Mu’tazilah, and Ash’aris went astray by placing philosophy over revelation
- And how this part of Tawheed shapes your worship, your dua, and your connection to Allah

This isn’t a side topic. It’s the foundation of knowing the One you worship — without compromise.

Many begin their journey to seek knowledge. Few stay. Fewer still reach the end.

Most people start strong — signing up for courses, attending classes, and watching lectures. But without structure, consistency, and the right mindset… they fall off. Months pass, and they’re back to where they started — or worse, they think they’re progressing when they’re actually lost.

This talk is your wake-up call.

Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble lays down exactly what it takes to be a real student of knowledge — how to start, what to prioritise, what to avoid, and how to stay the course even when motivation fades.

What you’ll learn:
– Where and how to begin your studies
– The mindset that separates real students from quitters
– Why most people never last on this path
– How to fix your study routine if you’ve gone off-track

If you’re serious about seeking knowledge — this is where you begin. Or begin again.

Why is unity among Muslims so difficult today? Allah decreed that people would differ - but does that mean He loves disunity? What exactly did the Prophet ﷺ teach about handling disagreements? And is there really a blueprint for Muslims to finally unite?

What are the real reasons Muslims keep splitting into groups, and what specific steps can we take to fix it?

In this eye-opening lecture, Ustadh Muhammad Tim Humble clarifies the Qur’an and Sunnah’s stance on unity, highlights the Sahabah’s practical approach to differences, and reveals the genuine blueprint for uniting all Muslims.

If you've ever felt confused or frustrated by divisions among Muslims, this lecture will give you clear answers and practical guidance.
