Muhammad bin Yahya al-Ninowy – 5 Signs of a True Believer

About this lecture

In this lecture, Shaykh Muhammad bin Yahya al-Ninowy delivers a detailed exposition of Surah Al-Anfal (8:1–4), unpacking the five defining characteristics of the true believer: a heart that trembles at the mention of Allah, faith that increases when the Quran is recited, complete reliance (tawakkul) on Allah, the establishment of prayer, and spending in charity. Drawing on the historical context of the Battle of Badr, vivid stories from Islamic history, and practical reflections on everyday life, the Shaykh urges listeners to examine their own hearts and strive to embody the qualities of genuine iman.
