Yusuf Estes – Know Your Direction

About this lecture

In this short but powerful talk, Sheikh Yusuf Estes uses two personal stories about arriving against all odds as a springboard to reflect on a profound Islamic concept: direction. Drawing on two famous Hadith — one about a man who spent his life on the path to Hell only to be saved at the last moment, and another about a man who killed 100 people yet earned Paradise through sincere repentance and movement in the right direction — Sheikh Estes reminds us that what truly matters is not where we've been, but the direction we are headed and Allah's boundless mercy along the way.
