Ep 88When the World Feels Unstable: Where Should the Believer Anchor His Heart?

In this Jumuʿah sermon, we reflect on the turbulence of our times, the spread of misinformation, and how believers should remain spiritually anchored when the world feels uncertain. The khutbah explores how global chaos often reflects the moral state of human hearts, why Muslims must verify information in an age of viral rumours, and how faith, knowledge and worship remain the believer’s compass in times of confusion. Delivered at Muhiyadeen Jumuʿah Masjid, Mayura Place, Colombo 06 on 06 March 2026. May Allah allow these reminders to bring clarity, steadiness and guidance to our hearts. Āmīn!

Ep 87The Melting Capital: Understanding Ontological Loss in the Market of Life

Sheikh Muiz Bukhary explores in this sermon, the chillingly precise warnings contained within Sūrat Al-ʿAsr.

We move from the markets of the past to the digital distractions of 2026 to answer one question: If our existence is melting away every second, what have we actually "bought" with our lives?

Ep 48Ramadan a Month of Subtraction

We usually think of happiness in a positive sense, meaning that by adding certain elements to our lives the state of happiness will be attained. And that might be money, possessions, knowledge, fame, recognition, friends, or whatever. But maybe we’ve been going about it all wrong. Happiness through subtraction rather than happiness through addition seems counterintuitive but especially in the context of feelings thoughts and emotions, sometimes it’s getting rid of the ones that are hurting us that causes happiness rather than adding the ones that could help us. It’s hard to feel free and light with a baggage weighing you down, and the case could be made that all of the things you are attempting to add to your life in order to be happy will just end up burdening you more.
