Each Nasiha was delivered in a presentation of approximately 45 minutes. He recognised that it was in the young generation’s eagerness, strength and enthusiasm that the future of the Muslim Umma lay.Įach of the seven sections in this book represents one Nasiha or Advice. That course represented one of many similar courses Ustadh Khurram conducted for young Muslims, both male and female. The spiritual exhortations that follow were originally delivered in the early hours of Summer 1993 just after Salat al-Fajr as part of a course entitled Self Development for Islamic Workers at The Islamic Foundation, Leicester. He then outlines the methods and instruments which must be used in the attainment of that ultimate goal. In it he sets out the goal of the Believer – the single-minded desire to seek the good pleasure of Allah and Paradise. This book is a collection of inspirational advice by a dear and beloved teacher, Ustadh Khurram Murad on the subject of spiritual and self development. It is the occasion with the most potential for the heart to be present, alert and free of worldly concerns as the Quran declares: Lo! The vigil of the night is when impression is more keen and speech more certain. The later part of each night is the most conducive period for reflection and self development. Our Lord descends each night to the nearest Heaven when only the last third of the night remains, and says: ‘Is anyone praying that I may answer him? Is anyone seeking forgiveness, that I may forgive him? Is anyone asking, that I may give to him?’, and this continues until dawn. THE title of this book, In the Early Hours, has been carefully and specifically chosen to highlight that precious but often neglected time during the night that Allah is closest and most receptive to His servants.
