I know this is an old post, but I just came across it. You have a nice way of capturing these touching human moments, ma-sha-Allah. A little bit of description, a bit of dialogue, and I feel like I’m there. I’m really not as familiar with Imam Siraj as I should be, but you have encouraged me to learn more Insha’Allah.

I think you’ve learned a lot since then Imam Suhaib. You have become one of those people to whom everything is a da’wah moment, Insha’Allah.

This was really heartwarming… May Allah connect us all as brothers and sisters with true love for each other for the sake of Him.

Why not just say “Merry Christmas”? Even if you don’t celebrate it, it ought to be okay to say it.

Sorry, Imam Suhaib, I would have sent these pictures to you earlier, but since I snuck them with my cell phone, I thought you might be mad.

It was an awsome afternoon.

Dude how sweet is Imam Siraj’s thobe in that first pic. He’s like carrying books in the front pockets. Shukr clothing eat your qalb out.

This was a sweet post, mA.

I recently went to this masjid in Chicagoland and happened to walk in when it was empty. I browsed over to their mini-library/bookshelf and there I find a monstrous pile of ooooold tapes of none other than… Imam Siraj!

Straight up like 1992 to 1998 tapes. Before all us n00b AlMaghrib types came into the scene. I thought, man I gotta get these tapes digitized and up online. InshaAllah one day…

Assalamu alaykum ya ustadh,

After reading this I feel sooooo terrible for not coming to meet you when you held a Al – Maghrib class in Chicago. There were a lot of complication so i hope that you will forgive me.

Jazakallah
