Beginning the School Year by Understanding Community and Peace

Ustadh Michael Wolfender explains the value of reciting Surah Al Fatihah the most, as it is the perfect dua to ask of Allah, guiding our relationship with Him. Note at the end of this dua, we ask Allah to keep us among those who please Him and not the opposite. This speaks to the value of community and the importance of surrounding yourself with those who are righteously uplifting. It is a means of connection with a common goal of acting to please and for Allah’s Cause, understanding that we cannot achieve anything without Allah. Ustadh Michael shares Prophet Muhammad ﷺ’s guidance upon entering his adopted city of Medina and three tenets to live by which will earn paradise, including spreading peace.
