What’s Wrong With Us? A Quranic Call to Stand With the Oppressed

Description

When Allah asks us in Surah An-Nisa: “What is wrong with you?” - He is speaking to those who ignore oppression and suffering around them.

In this episode, Shaykh Muhammad Alshareef (rA) reminds us of a powerful spiritual responsibility: listening to and supporting the oppressed. We explore the Quranic verses calling us to defend those who cry out “Our Lord, rescue us”, and the prophetic promise that Allah will never disgrace the one who stands with the vulnerable.

You will hear reminders from the life of the Prophet ﷺ - how his protection from Allah was tied to caring for the afflicted - and the warning he gave Mu’adh (ra) about fearing the Dua of the oppressed, a Dua with no barrier between it and Allah.

This episode will shift how you see activism, mercy, and the protection Allah grants those who step up.

May Allah make us a source of relief, never a cause of harm. Ameen.
