The Muhammadi Trust

Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth (24:35), Whereever you turn there is the face of Allah (2:115) , He created for you mates from among yourselves that ye may dwell in tranquillity with them and He has put love and mercy between your (hearts): verily in that are Signs for those who reflect. (30:21), To Allah We belong and to Him is our return. (2:156),Which the of your Lord’s blessings do you both deny? (53:53),Say: “Journey in the land and observe the fate of those who came before – most have not been in Unity” (30:42),Allah originates creation then restores it and then to Him you shall be returned. (30:11),And on earth there are signs for those who are certain in faith and in yourselves do you not then see? (51:20-21),I created jinn and mankind only to worship Me. (51:56),To God belong the East and the West; wherever you turn there is the Face of God; God is All-embracing All-knowing. (2:115),All that they do is noted in (their) Books (of Deeds): Every matter small and great is on record.(54-52-53)

Our Mission

The Muhammadi Trust is a charitable endowment that promotes Islamic spirituality and Self-Knowledge based on Prophetic traditions.

It publishes books, holds seminars and encourages contributions from established scholars that prioritise the universal and transformative nature of the Prophetic message; that in understanding the true nature of our own selves through outer practice and inner reflection, we learn to fulfil our real purpose in creation.

I did not create jinn and humans except to worship Me. (Quran 51:56)

He who knows himself knows his Lord – Prophet Muhammed (saw)

How could I worship Him whom I do not know – Imam Ali (as)

The divine message of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was conveyed through the revelation of the holy Quran, his traditions, his perfect character and conduct, and the continuation of this transmission through the Ahlul Bayt (as).


”If the heart is sound, then the whole body is sound; if the heart is sick, then the whole body is sick” – Prophet Muhammad (from The Prophetic Traditions in Islam)

Al-Sadiq (as) said, “Surely the heart is constantly murmuring in the recess of the body, demanding the Truth; if the Truth reaches it, then it finds ease and rest.”  (from The Prophetic Traditions in Islam)

In a time of major global upheaval and uncertainty, it is our sincere and humble aim, God willing, to promote these teachings of Islam that bring with them the pathway to the perfect balance of inner light and tranquillity with outer practices and courtesies.

Our History

The Muhammadi Trust has been in existence for more than four decades. During the early seventies, the number of Islamic institutions in the West were very few, as was Islamic literature in the English language. With migration from the subcontinent and other parts of the world, creating a growing Muslim population within the UK, there was an evident need for establishments that would serve the community at all levels.

Through inspiration from the late Raja of Mahmudabad, the then Director of the Islamic Centre in Regents Park (which was later built into the present day Regents Park Mosque) and the stewardship of the late Cmdr Qasim Husain as well as from the participation of energetic members of the community, the Muhammadi Trust of Great Britain and Northern Ireland was established.

The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, “Truly my progeny is like the ark of Noah floating amongst you – whoever embarks thereon
is saved.”

From Our Articles

Quote of the Day -

'' The first part of the deen is knowledge of Him. The perfection of knowledge of Him is affirmation of Him. The perfection of affirmation of Him is affirming His Oneness. The perfection of affirming His Oneness is being sincere towards Him. Whoever makes a comparison to Him has set up a second with Him. Whoever sets up a second with Him has divided Him. Whoever divides Him is ignorant of Him. Whoever tries to indicate Him has given Him limitations, and whoever gives Him limitations has rendered Him finite.''

Imam Ali (a.s.)

Supplications

The Psalms of Islam (Sahifa-e-Sajjadia)

A revered collection of supplications and prayers attributed to Imam Ali ibn Husayn Zayn al-Abidin, the fourth Imam of the Ahl-ul-Bayt. The Sahifa-e-Sajjadiya comprises over 50 supplications with penetrating insights into the psychology of the soul, acute observations of the nature of life in this world, and meditation upon the divine qualities and attributes. In addition, the book contains moral and ethical teachings -the ideal inner and outer courtesy or adab of the Muslim in daily life, with regards to one's self, parents, children, friends and enemies -that are all the more compelling in being presented in the context of a dynamic relationship between the soul and its Creator.

Dua of the day from Sahifa Kamila

Friday

 
In the Name of God, the All-Merciful, the All-compassionate
 

1- All Praise belongs to God, the First before the bringing forth and the giving of life, and the Last after the annihilation of all things, the All-knowing who forgets not him who remembers Him, decreases not him who thanks Him, disappoints not him who supplicates Him, and cuts not off the hope of him who hopes in Him!

2- O God, I call Thee to witness - and Thou art sufficient witness – and I call to witness all Thy angels, the inhabitants of Thy heavens, the bearers of Thy Throne, Thy prophets and Thy messengers whom Thou hast sent out, and the various kinds of creatures Thou hast brought forth, that I bear witness that Thou art God; there is no god but Thou, Thou alone, who hast no associate nor any equal, and Thy word has no failing, nor any change;
and that Muhammad (God bless him and his Household) is Thy servant and Thy messenger; he delivered to the servants that with which Thou charged him, he struggled for God as is His due, he gave the good news of the truth of reward, and he warned of the veracity of punishment.

3- O God, make me firm in Thy religion as long as Thou keepest me alive, make not my heart to swerve after Thou hast guided me, and give me mercy from Thee, surely Thou art the Giver. Bless Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad, make me one of his followers and his partisans, muster me in his band, and give me the success of accomplishing the obligatory observance of Friday, performing the acts of obedience which Thou has made incumbent upon me within it, and [receiving] the bestowal which Thou hast apportioned for its people on the Day of Recompense! Surely Thou art Mighty, All-wise!
