  1. Islamic Adviser Babar Chaudhry

  2. AsslamuAlaikum!. I have had the opportunity to be introduced to ArrahmanArraheem Network during an extremely testing time in my life. Born in a traditional Muslim family, I learned the basic fundamentals of my Deen.

  3. All was going well in my life till I entered college. During my years in college, I met with students of all faiths, ethnic backgrounds and practices who questioned me about Islam. In my sophomore year, I was part of an interfaith project where people asked me about my beliefs. I couldn’t provide them with coherent answers. This was the turning point in my life when I asked myself, how much do I really know about Islam? How am I practicing without understanding? How can I claim to practice the teachings of Al-Quran without knowing them?

  4. This is where I had the opportunity to listen to Babar Chaudhry’s lecture on “How to Read Al-Quran.” This completely changed my life! I started attending his classes and was surprised by the format of the lectures. For example, it is an open question-answer format where I can ask anything related to my daily life, practice or confusion. Answers are provided within the reference of ayats from Al-Quran and Ahadiths. So when I first started reading Al-Quran, I asked the question “How do I know where I am standing in the sight of Allah SWT?” Then Babar Sir showed me a reference from Al-Quran which I found very surprising. In Chapter 21 Surah Al-AnbiyaAyat 10 Allah SWT says, “We have indeed sent down to you a Book which deals with matters concerning yourselves, why don’t you understand?”  I found this ayat extremely compelling because Allah SWT is telling me that Al-Quran contains guidance for matters concerning ourselves. This is the first time I had read Al-Quran with understanding. At first I used to read Al-Quran only in Arabic to gain sawabbut now I am understanding the message as well. Babar Sir gave me the example that if a person from a diverse background (ex. French, German, Chinese) needed guidance or an answer to any curiosity from Al-Quran. In which language is he/she supposed to read? I replied obviously in their own language in which they understand.

  5. Babar Sir further explained that guidance is attainted through understanding and only then can we find out what Allah (SWT) wants from us. He also quoted a saying of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is that “The best amongst you is the one who learns Al-Quran and teaches it to others.” From that day forward, I vowed to myself to learn the teachings of Al-Quran with understanding and practice them in my daily life. This is how I can become a practicing Muslim. I am highly thankful to Allah SWT and Babar Chaudhryas a teacher of ArrahmanArraheem Network in providing this light, platform and guidance to better understand and practice my Deen! After this I am grateful to my mother who has supported me in my journey of becoming a better Muslim.
