On Day 4 of our tour in Harrow, Shaykh Muhammad al-Yaqoubi shared profound insights into the significance of Dhikr — the remembrance of Allah—as a transformative practice that strengthens our spiritual connection and shields us from life’s challenges.

Shaykh al-Yaqoubi emphasised that Dhikr, more than any other command in the Quran, is repeatedly stressed as a vital practice for believers. Allah says, “O you who believe, remember Allah with much remembrance.” This isn’t just for moments of peace; it’s crucial in times of hardship, including during battles. The Shaykh explained that the neglect of Dhikr in challenging times can lead to defeat, both externally and internally.

He urged everyone to reflect on their daily routines and consider how much time they dedicate to remembering Allah. Even a single hour of Dhikr each day, reciting simple phrases like “La ilaha illa Allah” (There is no deity but Allah) or “Astaghfiru Allah” (I seek forgiveness from Allah), can bring immense peace, protection, and success in one’s endeavors.

Shaykh al-Yaqoubi reminded the audience of a powerful saying of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him): “Shall I not tell you of the best of your deeds…which is better for you than spending gold and silver, and better than fighting your enemy? It is the remembrance of Allah.” This highlights Dhikr as the most rewarding act a believer can perform, bringing blessings far greater than material wealth or physical struggles.
