Hadith Balance Seerah Worship Marriage Family Happiness Character

About this lecture

In this lecture, Sheikh Tahir Wyatt lays out the Islamic foundations for building a happy home, emphasizing that true happiness begins with obedience to Allah and cannot be found through marriage alone. He walks through the first two of six key foundations — obedience to Allah and balance (al-wasat) — drawing on Quranic verses, authentic ahadith, and vivid examples from the lives of the Prophet ﷺ and his companions. Practical and deeply grounded, this talk challenges Muslims to pursue individual spiritual growth and moderation as the bedrock of a thriving family life.

Shaykh Dr. Tahir Wyatt is an American scholar from Philadelphia and one of the most academically credentialed English-speaking Islamic scholars.

He returned to Philadelphia, where he serves as executive director of the Quran and Sunnah Society and resident scholar at the United Muslim Masjid, and he has served as a senior scholar with Yaqeen Institute. His lectures span aqeedah, hadith, fiqh, and the intellectual defense of Islam.
