It is our greatest wish that these feelings spread to all humanity.” said Ergün, and continued his words as follows:Friday Khutba
Muslims around the world are experiencing a very different excitement these days. There are only a few days left for Ramadan, which has an exceptional value for us. By understanding this month well, Allah (swt) offers us a unique opportunity to tidy ourselves up, take ourselves into account and attain Allah's approval. The most important thing that distinguishes the month of Ramadan from other months and makes it superior is that the Qur'an, which was sent to guide humanity until the end, had started to be sent down in the month of Ramadan.Friday Khutba
The human being, Allah (swt), the Lord of the worlds, is the only being with a conscious sense of belonging among other beings. Any ordinary person cannot avoid feeling a sense of belonging to a person, family or society. A Muslim individual, on the other hand, sees himself as an important part of the Islamic Ummah.Press Release
Bekir Altaş, Secretary General of the Islamic Community Millî Görüş (IGMG), made a statement on the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. "The unequal treatment of people on the basis of their origin and appearance is increasing. While some people are granted help and protection without reservation, others are rejected or deported to supposedly safe countries where war still continues," said Altaş.Friday Khutba
Undoubtedly, one of the most important mottos of Islamic values is patience. Prophet Muhammad (saw), who was sent as a mercy to the worlds has said; “Whoever persists in being patient, Allah will make him patient. Nobody can be given a blessing better and greater than patience.”Friday Khutba
The shadow of Ramadan, the sultan of eleven months and the time of peace in our hearts, has fallen on us. Next Thursday, on the 15th night of Sha'ban, we will witness Lailatul Barat. Barat means getting rid of sin, debt and punishment in Arabic, therefore reaching the mercy and forgiveness of Allah (swt). Since it was announced that Allah's forgiveness will be abundant, this night is called "Lailatul Barat".
