FRIDAY KHUTBA
“The Unifying Aspect of Prayer, the Contemplative Side of Worship”
29. September 2023The Last Messenger Sent to Humanity
21. September 2023Prophets are the chosen servants of Allah (swt). They are, in a sense, individuals who have been purified from among humanity. In the Qur'an, the term 'istafa' is used to emphasise this point. In the commentaries, this expression is understood and explained as meaning that prophets are made the essence of all creation, purified from negative qualities and decorated with praiseworthy attributes.
Believer’s Social Identity
14. September 2023Sacrifice: Living for Your Brother
07. September 2023One of the virtuous qualities and behaviours expected to be developed by a Muslim based on piety (takwa) is generosity. Giving for the sake of Allah, without carelessness with what is in one's possession, without falling into condemnable situations and without making oneself needy, is a valuable quality.
Sunnah: Prophet’s Guide
31. August 2023When we mention 'Sunnah,' our Prophet (saw) comes to mind. Sunnah means tradition, path, practice and application. For us Muslims, it is the path, the path of Allah and just as we ask to be guided along the straight path 40 times a day in Surah Fatiha, it is the path of the straight path, which we also want Allah to guide us on.
