Leaving a Legacy

Studies reveal that 70% of wealth is depleted by the first generation and 90% by the third. Many neglect the importance of a lasting legacy that pleases Allah, offering ongoing benefits and rewards after death—whether through ceaseless charity, imparting beneficial knowledge, or nurturing righteous descendants who pray for them.

Unlike worldly legacies, the hereafter holds eternal significance. Islam emphasizes initiating good deeds, ensuring that even after being forgotten by the third generation, one's contributions remain valuable in the eyes of Allah. Join us to explore the significance of deeds that never go in vain, no matter how big or small.

May Allah be pleased with Sheikh Belal Assad ❤ Ameen!

he honestly helped me change my life and be a better Muslim.

I was in a dark place and there was no hope. I came across one of his talks on Islam channel many years ago it was the prophet series. I searched his name thankfully and found all his khutbas.

Truly eloquent in his speech and humble man Allah humma barik lahu.

May Allah unite him with his loved ones in Jannah and keep him happy here and in the next life to Ameen.

Love you all for the sake of Allah.

As salaamu Alaykum
