Islam came to protect individuals, and to give people a chance at a better future, and a better life in the Hereafter. But to actually benefit from this, one needs to learn how to ‘live the life’ of a Muslim.

In this video, Sheikh Yasir Fahmy quickly reflects on how to remain focused on the path to Allah. He explains that understandably the way forward is difficult to see and it is only through developing a number of good habits can we try to stay steadfast on the path of Allah especially when it is so extremely easy to sin and comparatively difficult to do good.

The Qur’an reads:

{So remain on a right course as you have been commanded, [you] and those who have turned back with you [to Allah], and do not transgress. Indeed, He is seeing of what you do.} (Hud 11:112)

This video reminds us that we will have to face and beat certain hardships if we want to stand firm in our Islam; to attain the promised Jannah entails challenges that take true faith to overcome.
