Khuṭbah Collection 2

There is no doubt that Islām encourages every action that strengthens the true spirit of brotherhood1 and nurtures friendship, love, and mutual affection.

Today, we will attempt to address and discuss a challenge that has entered nearly every home, occupies the minds of millions of young people, steals countless hours, and competes for the attention

Every few years, the world becomes captivated by a major sporting event. Millions gather around televisions, phones, and stadiums.

There is no doubt that Allāh has created us not for distraction, but for a purpose.

Many challenges exist within our Muslim community today, challenges that are not unique to us but are shared by societies around the world.

Many of us lose sight of the reality that we have been placed in this world for a clear purpose, and that a day will come when we will stand before Allāh and be held accountable for every action.

Islām is a comprehensive system that came to preserve the essential objectives (Maqāṣid) of human life: religion, life, intellect, lineage, and dignity.

Alḥamdulillāh for the One who guides hearts, chooses people for the service of His Dīn, and blesses our time, relationships, and responsibilities with Barakah.

Throughout the Qur’ān, Allāh has presented examples to His servants so they may reflect and learn from them.

We live in a world filled with pressure, pressure to look a certain way, achieve certain grades, please family, meet expectations, and keep up with everyone else on social media.
