Khutbah Al Haajah
forgiveness. We have faith in Him: We have reliance on Him. We fly for refuge unto Him
(to deliver us) from the mischief of our minds and from the evil consequences of our
actions. Whomever Allah directs shall not go astray: and whomever He allows to go
astray, no one can guide. We profess that there is nothing worthy of worship except Allah,
and we further profess that Muhammad is His Servant and His Messenger.

YUSUFALI: O ye who believe! Fear Allah, and let every soul look to
what (provision) He has sent forth for the morrow. And, fear Allah: for
Allah is well-acquainted with (all) that you do.
Brothers and sisters in Islam I want to spend the moments that Allah
has given to us in this blessed day of Friday to reflect, to ponder,
understand and Inshallah implement the lesson on easy way to
success as told to us in Surat Al Shams the 91th chapter of the Quran.

The “it” referred to in this ayah is the soul, the nafs. Those who purify
it attain tazkiah succeed and those that corrupt it fail.

So again all the success we have in this world are temporary, but Allah
Tala is telling us here about a permanent fala or permanent success for
those who purify their souls or in Arabic attain tazkiyah. The success
referred to here is the falah of entering the permanent adobe, the
permanent domicile, the permanent home of jannah.

For entering into Jannah. Allah Tala confirms this in the Qurran when
he says:
Now the question is how? How do we attain the state of tazkiyah. And
the answer is there are two ways. One is to attain tazkiyah in this
world and this is the easy way or again having tazkiyah done to us by
Allah in the grave and or judgment day and or hell fire.

I have only created Jinns and men, that they may worship Me.
And the only way to worship Allah, is by living our lives accord to
Islam. As Allah say in Surah Imran:
This day have I perfected your religion for you, and have
completed My favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam
as your religion.
So again my brothers and sisters the bottom line is that the easy way
to attain tazkiyah, and eventual entry into Jannah is to live our lives
according to Islam.

And if we think about it this life is too short to trade for the eternal
bliss of the hereafter.

ٌباليَاتِ وَالذّ ْكرِلْحَ ِكيْمِ أِّنهُ َتعَالَ َجوّادٌ َكرِْيمٌ مَلكٌ َب ّر ّر ُءوُفٌْ رّحيْم
May Allah grace you and us with the blessings of the grand
Qurr’an, and may it benefit us and you with the verses and with
wise commemoration, for He the Almighty is Generous, Noble,
Sovereign, Benign, Compassionate, and Merciful.
So brothers and sisters in Islam we have been talking about the first
10 ayaat of Surat Al Shams, and reflecting on them. And we talk about
in the first khutba’ that the easy to attain the eternal success is to
attain the state of tazkiyah or state of purity is by being serious about
of deen, rather than the tazkiyah being impress upon us by the
punishments of the grave and or day of judgment and or hell-fire.

3. Have I kept good company? Who are the people that I associate?
Will they help me or hurt me with regards to being an observant,
practicing Muslim?
4. When was the last time I picked up the book of Allah or Hadith of
Rasullah, read it, tried to understand it and implement it into my
life?
We ask Allah Tala to help us guide us, forgive us, and protect us from
the punishment of the fire.
We ask Allah to alleviate the pain and suffering from the earthquake,
hurricanes, flooding, poverty and hardships of this life.
We ask Allah to alleviate the pain suffering rancor, and oppression
from all the Muslims, in Iraq, in Afganistan, Kashmir, Checnya,
Phalistine and the all the Muslim Lands.
