By Sheikh Saleh ibn Abdullah Ibn Humaid - 17 Ramadhan 1434

His eminence Sheikh Saleh ibn Abdullah Ibn Humaid – may Allah protect him– delivered last Friday’s Khutbah titled “Thankfulness and the Merit of the Thankful” in which he talked about the merits of thankfulness and said that it belongs to the heart, and therefore every Muslim has to thank Allah for better and for worse. He mentioned the ways of thanking Allah and the manifestations thereof and cited some examples of thankful prophets and messengers, may Allah’s Salat and Blessing be upon them all.

Praise be to Allah! Praise be to Allah, the Protector, the One Worthy of all Praise, Owner of the Throne, the Glorious, Doer of whatsoever He wills. Exalted be His Name! I thank Him; He promised the thankful more of His bounties, and I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah with no associate –a testimony of faithfulness and Tawhid (oneness of Allah). I bear witness that our Master and Prophet Muhammad, the Servant and Messenger of Allah, is the best of prophets and most honourable servant of Allah. May Allah send His bounteous Salat, (Grace, Honour, Mercy) Peace and Blessing upon him, his honourable immaculate family, pious and righteous Companions who were blessed with sound judgment and a guided way of life, the tabi’in (the contemporaries of the Companions after the death of the Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) and those who followed them in righteousness until the Day of wa’id (Account/Judgement Day).

Now then, I urge you –people– and myself to observe fear of Allah. Observe fear of Allah –may Allah have mercy upon you! It is piety that you should count on. You should follow the example of your righteous predecessors, the early leaders. Take the initiative to obtain Allah’s forgiveness and satisfaction; answer the one who calls to the way of Allah (Ta'ala), to His reward and to His Paradise. read more

Allah The Exalted said with respect to the story of the two men: "Why do you not, when you enter into your garded say:

"Mã shã'a 'allãhu lã quwwata 'illã bil-lãhi". (Al-Kahf (#18) V. 39.)

'Allah's Will [be done]! There is no strength but in Allah!

It is reported about the Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam that if he saw something he liked he would say:

"Al-hamdu lil-lãhi 'allathee bini`matihi tatimmus-sãlihãtu."

"All praise is to Allah, by the Grace of Whom all good things are fulfilled."

and if he saw something he disliked he would say:

"Al-hamdu lil-lãhi 'alã kulli hãlin".

"All praise is to Allah upon every circumstance."
