By Sh Abdul-Rahman Al-Sudeis - 24 Jumaadal Ula 1434

His eminence sheikh Abdul-Rahman Al-Sudeis –May Allah protect him- delivered the Friday khutbah entitled "The Affliction of Disunity and Dissent" in which he spoke about unity and its importance to the life of individuals and nations; he indicated that disunity among the citizens of a homeland only brings about evils and corruptions; this will not be amended except by holding tight to the rope of Allah i.e. Islam, and by following the Sunnah of the Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam); the sheikh gave advice to media men and the youth using the sites of social communication to work for the unity of their homeland and to avoid delivering it to the scorching furnace of wars and afflictions.

Praise be due to Allah; we thank Him, seek His help, and ask Him forgiveness; And we seek refuge with Allah from the evils of our souls and the sins of our deeds; whomever is guided by Allah, nobody and nothing can misguide; and whomever is misguided by Him, nobody will be able to guide; and I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah alone with no partners; He made us into peoples and tribes; and I bear witness that our Prophet and Master Muhammad is the servant of Allah and His Messenger sent by Allah when the darkness of disunity was rampant. He brought along unity and adherence (to religion: Islam) as a remedy for vain diverging regiments; May Allah send His Salat (Graces, Honours and Mercy) and Peace on him, his family, Companions in the mornings and late afternoons, the tabi'in and those who follow them in righteousness and good manners till the Day (of Judgment) when the latest and the earliest generations on earth will be summoned.

Having said this, O servants of Allah!
Fear your Lord and thank Him for His bounteous blessings and increasing graces, for thankfulness entails protection and growth of favours; in addition it is a light that illuminates the sable taint of sins to suppress it.

The Sheikh cites two lines of poetry:
For thankfulness would not reach the level,
Of what He has assigned and given of bounties,
How can thankfulness be parallel to the graces of a Giver,
Who bestows His graces without reminding His beneficiaries of his favors and gives without offending. read more
