Summary

In this mesmerizing lecture , Shaykh Yasir Qadhi implores us to fathom the greatness behind the Kalimah - لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله and make sincere efforts to completely immerse oneself in the most comprehensive Kalima there is. What does it mean? How do we revel in the pleasures of this astounding kalima which is not just knowledge based but is also action based? More light is shed on this line in the talk for all to reflect upon. Shaykh Yasir Qadhi goes on to elaborate how the kalimah is the first thing we hear on our birth and also the last thing we say when we leave this life. He even establishes that no other form of dhikr holds higher regard than this very Kalimah and is the most coveted treasure of Jannah.
