THE FRIDAY KHUTBAH (SERMON)

THE OBLIGATION OF ADHERING TO THE SUNNAH
by Alî Abd-ur-Rahmân al-Hudhaifî
------------------------------
Allâh has done humankind a great favour by sending Muhammad, blessings and peace be upon him, to them as a Messenger. Allâh says,

“We sent thee not, but as a mercy for all creatures.” (Al-Anbiyâ 21:107)

The Muslim is specially blessed with the message of Muhammad because he followed it and acted upon it; and the disbeliever is also generally blessed with the message of Islâm because Muslims’ adherence to the teachings of their religion prevents the evil of the disbelievers and dries up the sources of great corruption that could have occurred in the land. Allâh says,

“And did not Allah check one set of people by means of another, the earth would indeed be full of mischief: but Allah is full of bounty to all the worlds.” (Al-Baqarah 2:251)

Allâh revealed the greatest Book to His Messenger and He revealed to him the greatest explanation for that Book in form of the Sunnah. He undertakes the protection of the Qur’ân and the Sunnah from interpolations and changes and protects them from perverted ideas and interpretations. Allâh established proof against mankind through the leader of all Messengers. He guided Muhammad to the best guidance and made easy for him the best of all paths. read more

A THOUGHT

REPENTANCE
--------------
Tauba means repentance for a sin by taking promise not to do the same evil again and to return to Allah. Repentance is the beginning in the life of a person who intends to walk in the path of religion. It is the root of the fortune of those who are successful, the first step of a disciple, the key to guidance to the straight path, the weapon of purification of those who wish to come close to Allah and a dear thing of all prophets. So it is no wonder that man will commit sins.

 
THE SMILE
INTERNET AWARENESS
-----------------------
As a member of an Internet awareness survey team, we had visited a home. The unruly owner asked, "Tell me the difference between washing machine & Internet?” When I was cursing my luck, my colleague answered, "The former washes your cloth and the later washes your brain."
