A PURPOSEFUL KHUTBAH
In the Name of Allāh. Indeed, the Khutbah is a core aspect of the Jumu’ah prayer. It’s not just a sermon or a lecture, but a sacred ritual that holds great significance in the Islāmic faith. It’s an opportunity for Muslims to renew their commitment to Allāh and to receive spiritual guidance and inspiration. While […]
IS KHUTBAH VALID IN NON-ARABIC?
In the Name of Allāh. Perfect Praise is to Him for the blessing of Islām. Actually, there is an age-long argument on the validity of Jumu’ah Khutbah (Friday sermon) in non-Arabic language. This is so, for Islām not to be seen as a blind faith that does not give recognition to people’s situation. Anyway, the […]
TAKING THE BLESSINGS
In the Name of Allāh. Oh, the immeasurable blessing of Islām! Indeed, it showers us with plentiful opportunities for good deeds, and the reward for such acts is beyond our wildest dreams.

HOW AWESOME THIS IS!
In the Name of Allāh. By Allāh, we are indeed favored with the blessing of Islām; having numerous excellent acts to be done in amassing oodles of boon from Allāh. Let’s just consider the Jumu’ah prayer as an instance. Regarding it, as recorded in Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim, the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Whoever bath, then comes to […]
HEARTS ARE SEALED
In the Name of Allāh. I read a post this morning on research conducted to show that most of the countries applying Islāmic Principles have their citizens not traditionally Muslims. It also discusses how worse the condition of the Muslims is vis-à-vis moral vices. Isn’t it flummoxing and questionable that a Muslim correctly bags sound […]
SPEAK GOOD OR REMAIN SILENT!
In the Name of Allāh. Do you know what a lot of people waste their time on today? Vain talk (or laghw in Arabic)! Useless talks that include backbiting, gossiping, carelessly commenting on social media posts, etc. The vain talk used to solely be an issue when a group of people gathered together, but with […]
