What’s the nature of the Qalb?
Hardship and Relief

The Chains in the Mind

Message of Muhammadﷺ
When you study the Seerah, ask yourself what the fundamental nature of the message of Rasoolullahﷺ was, which resulted in such overwhelming opposition to begin with and then total transformation of society.
