Think Awakening...!!! [1]
Al Salamu Alikom wa rahmatu Allah wa barakatu....
Sami Yusuf...
Imam Suhaib...
Mesut Kurtis....
Renowned names in different fields of Islam, whom we cherish, respect and look up to....
Names that affected us, added up to us, changed our way, and lifted up our spirituality.
Tears would fall down our cheeks while listening to Supplication, Great love would fill our hearts listening to Al Muallim. We'd smile at Imam Suhaib's sense of humour while listening to "Mothers of the beleivers", and realize how superior our mothers were. Thank Allah for all his blessing and beautiful creatures with every word that Mesut sings in "Allahu Allah"
But did any of us ever wondered who contributed towards all these successes?
Who were the ones who strived to present them, and through them would enhance and promote a positive, relevant, balanced and moderate image of Islam.
Thinking about Sami, Mesut, and Imam Suhaib, how much we cherish and support them, behind such a charming and impressive image, lies for sure an even more charming, hard working, sincere Muslims, whose only concern and ultimate aim is to serve their God and religion in the best way possible.
And if it hadn't been for them, we wouldn't have been enjoying the successes of these images.
AWAKENING....
There's no better choice of a name, a name that implies the message they want to deliver, the objective for which this company was established in the first place,
AWAKENING.....
Don't you feel the need to get up and do something, start changing what's around you, wake people up, return the prophet hood back to life.
إن الله لا يغير ما بقوم حتى يغيروا ما بأنفسهم
What is Awakening?
It represents a new brand, a new vision and a new endeavour to promote a balanced and moderate image of Islam.
Aren’t you just fed up of what you hear on the news? The challenge is how to address this. Perhaps part of the blame lies with us as Muslims. We need to first and foremost educate ourselves about the correct and balanced understanding of Islam.
Then we need to present this message in the best possible way.
Awakening was founded in the year 2000 in the United Kingdom as a publishing house.
It has now expanded to three divisions:
