• Ghafir 40: 60. And your Rabb said: "Invoke Me, [and ask Me for
anything] I will respond to your (dua). Verily! Those who scorn
My worship [do not make dua - invoke Me, and do not believe in
My Oneness] they will surely enter Hell in humiliation!"

‫ي‬ِ‫ِن‬‫ي‬‫إ‬َ‫ف‬ ‫ي‬ِ‫ّن‬َ‫ع‬ ‫ي‬‫ي‬‫اد‬َ‫ب‬‫ي‬‫ع‬ َ‫ك‬َ‫ل‬َ‫أ‬َ‫س‬ ‫ا‬َ‫ذ‬‫ي‬‫إ‬َ‫و‬‫ا‬ َ‫ة‬َ‫و‬ْ‫ع‬َ‫د‬ ُ‫َيب‬ ‫ي‬َُ‫أ‬ ٌ‫يب‬‫ي‬‫ر‬َ‫ق‬‫ي‬‫اع‬َّْ‫ل‬

• Baqara 2: 186. And when My slaves ask you (O Muhammad )
concerning Me, then (answer them), I am indeed near. I respond to
the dua of the supplicant when he calls on Me. So let them obey Me
and believe in Me, so that they may be rightly guided.

Love of Rasoolullah‫ﷺ‬
1. Bring the Seerah alive for them
2. Teach them like Rasoolullah‫ﷺ‬ taught children
3. Be a living model of Rasoolullah‫ﷺ‬ before their eyes
His life is the light on the road in the dark night

‫ي‬َّ‫اّلل‬ ‫ي‬‫ول‬ُ‫س‬َ‫ر‬ ‫ي‬‫ِف‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬َ‫ل‬ َ‫ن‬‫ا‬َ‫ك‬ َْْ‫ق‬َ‫ل‬‫ي‬ِ‫ل‬ ٌ‫ة‬َََّ‫س‬َ‫ح‬ ٌ‫ة‬َ‫و‬ْ‫ُس‬‫أ‬‫ن‬َ‫م‬
‫ي‬ُ ْ‫اْل‬ َ‫م‬ْ‫و‬َ‫َي‬ْ‫ل‬‫ا‬َ‫و‬ ََّ‫اّلل‬ ‫و‬َُْ‫ر‬َ‫ي‬ َ‫ن‬‫ا‬َ‫ك‬‫ي‬َِ‫ك‬ََّ‫اّلل‬ َ‫ر‬َ‫ك‬َ‫ذ‬َ‫و‬ َ‫ر‬‫ا‬ً‫ري‬

Meeting with) Allah‫ﷻ‬ and the Last Day and remembers Allah‫ﷻ‬ a
great deal.

َِ‫اّلل‬ َ‫ن‬‫و‬ُّ‫ب‬‫ي‬ُ‫ُت‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫َّت‬ُ‫ك‬‫ن‬‫ي‬‫إ‬ ْ‫ل‬ُ‫ق‬ُْ‫ي‬ ‫ي‬‫وِن‬ُ‫ع‬‫ي‬‫ب‬َّ‫ت‬‫ا‬َ‫ف‬ُِ‫اّلل‬ ُ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬ْ‫ب‬‫ي‬‫ب‬
َ‫و‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬َ‫وب‬ُ‫ن‬ُ‫ذ‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬َ‫ل‬ ْ‫ر‬‫ي‬‫ف‬ْ‫غ‬َ‫ي‬َ‫و‬ٌ‫َيم‬‫ي‬‫ح‬َّ‫ر‬ ٌ‫ور‬ُ‫ف‬َ‫غ‬ ُِ‫اّلل‬
• A’al Imraan 3: 31. Say (O Muhammad to mankind): "If you (really)
