THE FRIDAY SERMON
ALLAH'S MIGHT AND OMNIPOTENCE

by Sh Abdur Rahman As-Sudais - 08 Safar 1434

Praise be to Allah Who is sacred in His essence, attributes, and beauty and Who is great, elevated, and majestic; He is the Almighty in His glory, sublimity, and perfection. I thank Him (?); He created all creatures with no imperfection or deficiency.

(The Sheikh quotes the following two lines of poetry):

Praise be to You (Allah), a good and ever increasing praise;
Praise be to You, O our Lord, we count on You;
Praise be to You, the best praise and thanks.
The best and purest praise ever, are due to You!

And I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah alone with no partners, a witness to which hearts submit in obedience; and I bear witness that our Prophet and Master Muhammad is Allah's servant and Messenger, the best who has glorified Allah in his words and deeds. O Allah! Send Your Salat (Graces, Honors, and Mercy) and Peace on him and on his family who are ever generous, and on his Companions who were great heroes in defending Islam, and on the tab'în (the contemporaries of the Companions of the Prophet ? after his death) and those who righteously followed them as long as the day and night rotate.

Fear Allah, O servants of Allah! And know that the fear of Allah is the light of the hearts, the path to gain His love, and the proof of His reverence, ?O you who believe! Fear Allâh and keep your duty to Him. And let every person look to what he has sent forth for the morrow, and fear Allâh. Verily, Allâh is All-Aware of what you do? [Al-Hashr: 18] read more

 

(The Sheikh quotes another two lines of poetry):

There are lessons fearing Allah that can cure hearts like rainfall
Which makes the roses shine;
Fear of Allah is the best supply you carry;
And piety is the best thing a human being can attain.

DUA (PRAYER)
FOR ALLAH'S BOUNTIES

The Noble Qur’an mentions with respect to the story of the two men: "Why do you not, when you enter into your garden say: Mã shã'a 'allãhu lã quwwata 'illã bil-lãhi"

It is reported of the Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam that when he saw something he liked he would say 'Al-hamdu lil-lãhi 'allathee bini`matihi tatimmus-sãlihãtu, and if he saw something he disliked he would say, 'Al-hamdu lil-lãhi 'alã kulli hãlin.

~ Ibn Maajah ~

OUR LATEST PODCAST
Friendship – Edris Khamissa – Part 2 of 2

The aspect of friendship, as brother Edris Khamissa explained, is fundamental to our lives. Nothing can be more painful than to have a lonely existence. Nothing can be more painful than not knowing who to talk to about our situation or dilemmas.

Brother Edris also advised that parents should expose their kids to other kids to hone their social skills. This will give them a better sense of teamwork, compromise and sacrifice. Important skills would also be learnt as they grow up that would assist in developing long-lasting friendships.

Friendship is something you cherish and relish. Friendship is something you invest in.

During the programme, brother Edris encouraged introspection by posing important questions: ‘Are you a person who is a worthy friend?’ and ‘Do you have the attributes for someone to say, ‘I like to befriend him/her because I’ll be enriched by him/her.’

This is part 2 of 2… Listen
