THE FRIDAY SERMON
 

FAREWELL TO RAMADAN

By Sa'ud bin Ibrahim bin Muhammed Al-Shurym - Imam and Khateeb of Al-Masjid Al-Haram

All praise is for Allah. We praise Him, Most Glorified is He, seeking a continuance of His Graces and submitting to His Strength. Surely, none can be misled after his Guidance.

I bear witness that there is no god or deity worthy of worship except Allah alone with no partner. It is a testimony that we will cling to as long as we have to live. It is the strength of Iman and the opening of Ih'san, and what Pleases ar-Rahman and provokes the Shaytan.

I bear witness that Muhammed (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) is Allah's slave and final Messenger. He was sent with the complete religion, perfect knowledge, the Inscribed Book and sincere and pure Tawheed.

I ask Allah to send His Salah and Salaam on him, his purified family, his honoured companions and those who follow their path of Ih'san until the Day of Judgement.

I advice you to have Taqwa Allah (AW) for it is the key to true happiness and ensures freedom and salvation from all peril. With Taqwa, the one who seeks shall find, the one who flees shall be given security.

Know that good deeds raise you, Taubah (repentance) benefits you, and that your Du'a is heard. Start working righteous deeds now before you age, become ill, or pass away.

Know that death destroys all desire and ambition. It will come suddenly to extinguish your fame, cut your ties, silence your words and remove you from your homes. Your inheritors will squabble over that which you gathered and hoarded. They will be beloved to you, yet of no power to help you. Or, they will be close to you, yet cannot prohibit anything from befalling you, or, an enemy who will rejoice at your departure.

Know that throughout your life there are those who are taking into account of all your deeds and actions and even breaths that you take. No darkness can conceal you, and no bunker can hide you. Surely, the Day is near. Allah (SW) says:

"Verily, the Promise of Allah is true, let not then this (worldly) present life deceive you, nor let the chief deceiver (Satan) deceive you about Allah." Luqman 32:33

Surely, days pass relentlessly like the movement of the clouds. Surely, in the change of day and night and the movement of the clouds there is a lesson to be learned. So of those whom have been given wisdom said: "A year is like a tree, its branches are like months, its limbs are like days, and its leaves are like the hours. The breaths are like the fruits on the tree. The fruits of whosoever obeyed Allah are sweet and blessed. And, The fruits of whosoever disobeys Allah are putrid and improvished. Surely, on the day of harvest it will be known that which is sweet and what which is putrid." read more

 
DUA (PRAYER)
 
GRIEF: The Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said to 'Asma' binti 'Umaysin: "Shall I not teach you a few words which you can say when you are distressed - or at the time of distress -

"Allahu, 'allahu rabbee la 'ushriku bihi shay'an."

"Allah, Allah my Lord I associate not with Him a thing."

"'n Afrikaanse Moslem Webtuiste en 'n Blog gerig op die Afrikaanssprekende Christen deur S'aad Bekker:

"Ons voel mos nie almal altyd dieselfde nie, is dit nie? Partymaal voel jy goed en ek dalk bietjie af, soos Allah wil. Kliek hier vir die nuutste Dagstukkie om jou aan te moedig. Ons het ook al die Dagstukkies wat ons nou al uitgestuur het saam op een bladsy gesit, juis vir jou gerief. As ek dus 'n Dagstukkie uitstuur en jy voel dis nou nie vandag vir jou bedoel nie, dan kan jy sommer maklik vir jouself al die Dagstukkie-opskrifte gaan deurkyk totdat jy een vind wat jou hart aanraak. Of as iets gebeur wat jou so bietjie van balans af gooi: besoek die Dagstukkies! Jy weet nooit, dalk wil Allah jou juis deur 'n besondere Dagstukkie bemoedig.

E-pos ons by sjbekker@vodamail.co.za as jy die Dagstukkies op jou rekenaar wil ontvang..."

A Wrong Answer

While doing a crossword puzzle, I asked for my husband's help.

"The word is eight letters long and starts with m, and the clue is 'tiresome sameness.'"

"Monogamy," he answered.
