Al-Sarakhsī said: "Our teacher, Shams al-Aʾimma—may God have mercy on him—used to say: Abū Yūsuf, despite his sharp intellect and having studied for twenty years, was not deemed fit by Imām Abū Ḥanīfa to teach. Yet in our time, someone learns 50 issues and then wants to teach."

A NOTE ON TIME & MONEY “We protect money because it's visible and throw away time because it's not. If you burn money, people call you crazy. If you burn time, they call you busy. We treat money as valuable because it's quantifiable and time as disposable because it's not.”

THE VALUE OF TIME & LAYLAT AL-QADR Actions are only judged by their endings, and each moment is potentially the greatest moment of your life. By this measure, each moment has the potential of being your Laylat al-Qadr. Watch here: youtube.com/shorts/HAEIt_5…

*A must-have book for your home this Ramadhan* Recently, I was gifted this wonderful book by Shaykh @tabrazeazam from Leicester. I truly believe every household would benefit from having a copy. It’s a warm and well-organised guide, perfect for students and anyone eager to learn more, especially as it’s based on Hanafi jurisprudence. It’s great for Ramadan study circles, personal revision, or beginner teaching, particularly for English speakers. You can tell from how the publisher presents it as a special English primer inspired by traditional teaching texts. kitaabun.com/shopping3/laws… For regular updates: chat.whatsapp.com/IUwT8yseKwbHPY…
