During the month of Rabi al-Awwal, Muslims around the world honour the birth of the Best of Creation ﷺ through gatherings of Hadith, Inshad and events detailing the blessed Sira. It is a great disservice to luminaries like Imam al-Busiri, Imam Yusuf al-Nabhani and Imam Ahmad Rida Khan et al., that we sing their poetry in praise of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ yet we move forward from the month of Rabi al-Awwal without any substantial gain, whether in knowledge or in practice. We must drive a change in culture and an agenda of reform.
Al-hamd li-Allah, we are excited to announce the launch of the Mawlid Fund. Each year, one work on the Prophet ﷺ will be printed through funds collected throughout the year. This will range on books detailing his blessed life, his virtues, his miracles, his sayings, and prayers upon him—may Allah shower His prayers and salutations upon him. In sha Allah, this will continue until our last breaths.
Let us abandon lip service that is currently populated with entertainers who care more for their pockets than the faith of their audiences. Let us make a lasting legacy, one that we may seek a means of salvation through.
