Summary

In this inspirational video, Shaykh Yasir Qadhi discusses at length on how a mu'min can taste the sweetness of Iman (faith). He stresses on the fact that the greatest blessing we have as a Muslim is Iman and it is binding upon us to remember that we should thank Allah for writing the blessed Iman in our hearts. He goes on to acquaint us with the absolute essentials needed for a person who has had the sweet taste of Iman - contentment with Allah SWT and our beloved Rasulullah ﷺ and achievement of happiness and gratitude towards Islam . Shaykh Yasir makes us understand that it is Iman that allows us to curb grief, pessimism and anxiety thereby ensuring us that Allah will open up doors to this world and the hereafter as opposed to abandoning this life as thought by many. He also expounds on ayah 28 of Surah Hadid where Allah says, يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَآمِنُوا بِرَسُولِهِ يُؤْتِكُمْ كِفْلَيْنِ مِن رَّحْمَتِهِ وَيَجْعَل لَّكُمْ نُورًا تَمْشُونَ بِهِ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ۚ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ "O you who have believed, fear Allah and believe in His Messenger; He will [then] give you a double portion of His mercy and make for you a light by which you will walk and forgive you; and Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." [Surah al-Hadid, 57:28] Watch the full video to taste the sweetness of these topics and much more.
