The Muhammadi Trust
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.
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.
Book Of The Month
'' O Allah, just as You have protected my face (honour) from prostrating to other than You, so protect my face (honour) from asking [for anything] from other than You.' O my God, may it be honour enough for me Lord, and may that you are my Lord, and may it be glory enough for me that I am your slave. You are I desire, so make me as You desire. ''
Wednesday
1- Praise belongs to God, who appointed the night to be a garment, and sleep for a rest, and day He appointed for a rising!
2- To Thee belongs praise, for Thou roused me from my sleep, - and hadst Thou willed, Thou wouldst have made it everlasting - an everlasting praise that will never be cut off and whose number the creatures will never count!
3- O God, to Thee belongs praise, for Thou created, then proportioned, ordained and decreed, gave death and bestowed life, made sick and healed, made well and afflicted, sat upon the Throne and encompassed the Kingdom!
4- I supplicate Thee with the supplication of one whose mediation is weak, whose stratagems have been cut off, whose term has drawn near, whose expectation from this world has shrunk, whose neediness for Thy mercy has intensified, whose remorse for his neglect has become great, whose slips and stumbles have become many, and whose repentance is devoted sincerely to Thy face.
5- So bless Muhammad, the Seal of the Prophets, and his Household, the good, the pure, provide me with the intercession of Muhammad (God bless him and his Household) and deprive me not of his companionship! Surely Thou art the Most Merciful of the merciful!
6- O God, decree for me on Wednesday four things: Induce me to be strong in obedience to Thee, to be joyful in worshipping Thee, to be desirous of Thy reward, and to abstain from that which would make incumbent upon me Thy painful punishment! Thou art Gentle to whom Thou wilt!
