Muhammad al-Yaqoubi - Yearning for the Beloved ﷺ

About this lecture

In this deeply personal lecture, Shaykh Muhammad al-Yaqoubi reflects on the centrality of love for the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in the life of every believer, drawing on his own lineage, his shared name, and his heartfelt yearning (*shawq*) for the Prophet ﷺ. He explores the transformative power of *salawat* (prayers upon the Prophet ﷺ) through the inspiring examples of Shaykh Badruddin al-Hassani and Shaykh Ahmad al-Habbal, and offers a profound Quranic insight into how Allah ﷻ made the Prophet ﷺ the very source of glad tidings in times of calamity. A moving reminder that love for Rasulullah ﷺ is not merely a sentiment but a living force that shapes the soul, relieves suffering, and connects the believer to the Divine.
