The 5 Things That Will Testify Against You On Judgment Day

About this lecture

In this powerful lecture, the speaker reminds us that on the Day of Judgment, our own limbs — our ears, eyes, tongue, heart, and desires — will testify against us before Allah. Drawing on a hadith in which the Prophet ﷺ taught a companion a protective du'a covering the five root causes of human corruption, the lecture calls believers to guard what they hear, see, say, think, and desire. The example of Sayyidah Zaynab bint Jahsh and the sobering reminders of the grave are woven throughout, leaving listeners with a practical supplication and a timeless tagline: *aḥmī sam'ī wa baṣarī* — "I safeguard my ears and my eyes."
