Live the Qur’an: Reflections followed by Actions

Abdul Sattar urges us to take the message of Islam to the streets:

There are countless thoughts on the Quran, and society, and life, and death, and poverty, and social reform. [...] It is time that these thoughts, reflections, ideas, and conclusions no longer sit within the computers and notebooks of the activists, students, and scholars. That the fire of passion that burns for the Deen no longer sits as a protected candle in the hearts of a few people. But rather, that we fulfill our obligations as Muslims, by taking this message out. How many of us have volunteered at our local hospital? Not as a member of this org or a student of that Shaykh, but as a servant of Allah. How many of us have volunteered at a soup kitchen on our spare time? How many of us mentored community youth or spent time cleaning the streets with volunteer groups? How many of us have taken a step back and thought to ourselves of what the Prophet (saw) would have done if he knew there was a homeless man not more than two blocks from us?
