Listen "The Branches of Faith - Episode 02 - The Tree of Iman"
Episode Synopsis
In this enriching and beautiful talk by Shaykh Yasir Qadhi, we come to realize how alike Iman and a palm tree are and how we can seek to create a unique symbolism between the two.
Iman needs to be nourished with our good deeds just as a tree is nourished with water . Similarly, Iman should be enlightened (through Qur’an) as a tree is enlightened with sunlight. Iman should be protected from sins and evil deeds (major and minor) like how a tree is protected from weeds . The more sins we have the more the tree will be damaged and rendered beyond repair.
The Shaykh goes on to describe the towering branches of a date palm tree as as a sign of flourishing and manifestation of our Iman and enlightens us with metaphorical meaning behind this, that is, Izzah in this life and the Hereafter, lifting our ranks in Jannah, everywhere and much more.
May Allah protect, strengthen and perfect our Iman.
