Who has rights upon us? And who do we have rights upon? Imam Siraj Wahhaj speaks about the right you have to Allah (swt).
On the authority of Mu'aadh bin Jabal, a companion of the Prophet Muhammed who said :
"I was riding with the Prophet, sitting behind him, when he said to me, "O Mu'aadh! Do you know what is Allah's right over His slaves, and what is the slave's right over Allah?".

I said, "Allah and His Messenger know Best."

He said, "The Right of Allah over the slaves, is that they should worship Him alone and not associate anything with Him, while the right of the slaves over Allah is that He will not punish (on the Day of Judgment) whoever does not associate with Him."

Collected by al-Bukhari, Muslim, at-Tirmidhi, Ahmed & Ibn Majah

Young Muslims is a pioneering national youth organization that has been on the youth scene since the early 90's. We have established a well organized network of local youth groups that we call NeighborNets (which means network of neighbors) across the United States and Canada. Each NeighborNet is a dynamic youth group which attempts to build a solid understanding of the principles of Islam amongst its members by helping them put these principles into practice. By providing the youth with an Islamic atmosphere where they can form bonds of brotherhood with their peers, they become comfortable with Islam and its teachings. We stress the importance of knowing, understanding, and fulfilling our individual and collective obligations as Muslims.
