Hamza Yusuf – Where is Your Heart?

About this lecture

In this Ramadan lecture, Sheikh Hamza Yusuf explores the deeper spiritual purpose of fasting — moving beyond ritual abstention to genuine heart transformation and solidarity with the poor. Drawing on the Qur'an, Hadith, and even the Book of Isaiah, he challenges listeners to ask themselves the central question of the month: "Where is your heart?" The lecture calls Muslims to reorient their priorities toward God, serve those in need, and recognize that the real crisis of our time is not God's absence, but our own.
