I post this with tears in my eyes.

This is a Khutbah which was Given by one Sheikh from Kano (Nigeria)

What a touching KHUTUBAH please if time allows you read it.
It's worth a Reminder;

Forwarded as received.

"Every human is a slave. You're either a slave of your desires or a slave of Allāh. You either live life by your rules or the rule of Allāh.

How can the heart travel to God if it's chained by its desires?

O' son of Adam! Sell this World for the hereafter and you win both, sell the hereafter for this world & you lose both. #DeenOverDunya
Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyah

Islam is not a buffet where you pick and choose what suits you. Don't obey your desires. Obey Allaah.
"Imprisoned is he, whose heart is imprisoned from Allāh. Captured is he, who is captured by his desires."

Fudayl Ibn Iyad was asked "What do you find the strangest of all things?" He said: The heart that knows Allāh, yet still disobeys Him

Don’t miss Salāh for the sake of people. You were born & will die alone, you’ll go to the grave alone & be questioned alone on Judgment Day
1
الْأَخِلَّاءُ يَوْمَئِذٍ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ عَدُوٌّ إِلَّا الْمُتَّقِينَ
Close friends, on that Day, will be enemies to each other, except for the righteous and God fearing..." •[Surah Az-Zukhruf:67]

Fajr you're asleep, Zuhur you're busy, Asr you're tired, Magrib you're watching tv, Isha you're eating. You can dodge prayer, but not death.

We prepare for uncertain matters in our life like marriage etc but do we prepare for the one event that is definitely going to happen #Death

The first thing a slave will be held to account for is Salah. If we fall short on that, then we will fall short on what's to come.

Fajr: Do not fear missing sleep. Fear a day in which there will be no sleep.”

Expecting Paradise whilst neglecting Prayer, is like waiting for a train to arrive at the airport. Remember to pray Dhuhr

Everyone dreams to be in Jannah, but Allahﷻ says:
لَّيْسَ بِأَمَانِيِّكُمْ
paradise is not obtained by your wishful thinking •[An-Nisa 4:123] #work hard 4 hereafter

"If you could hear the sound of the pens of the angels writing your name among those who remember Allāh, you'd die out of joy." -Ibn Al-Qayyim

This Dunya Is Not A Resting Place >> It's A Testing Place! #Earn Good Deeds!

The world is a prison for the believer and a Paradise for the unbeliever". [Muslim] Your release here, sooner or later will be coming to an end.

Ibn Al-Qayyim (رحمه اللّٰه):
"He whom Allah has predestined to enter Paradise, the reasons which will cause his entrance shall spring from calamities;

He whom Allah has predestined to enter the Hellfire, the reasons which will cause his entrance shall spring from lusts”

Get used to a rough life, for luxury does not last forever. -Umar ibn Al Khattab

Do not be overly pleased by easy times. Verily,gold is tested for its purity by fire. Likewise,a righteous servant is tested by tribulations

It pains me to see born Muslims chasing the lifestyle of the disbelievers by drinking, clubbing, getting high etc.

Why do you think reverts run away from that life to the deen of Allāh. Run back to your Lord for His mercy overcomes His wrath.

How long will the person be happy with his worldly life?..Knowing that his ultimate home is the grave"

No matter how beautiful your face is, you will still be the food of worms when you are buried. Set aside your arrogance & remember your grave

Every single limb & organ in your body will speak up & bear witness against every action you committed in this Dunya
مَّا يَلْفِظُ مِن قَوْلٍ إِلَّا لَدَيْهِ رَقِيبٌ عَتِيدٌ
Not a word is said except that there is a watcher by him ready to record it.” [Surah Qaf:18] This includes all that you posted.

Hijab includes the way a person walks, talks, looks and thinks. All of it should be done modestly and applies to both men and women" #Hijab

My dear sisters in Islam. Cover up for the sake of Allah before its too late as today you are over the soil but tomorrow you may be under it

Yes hijab doesn't necessarily indicate your level of piety BUT it is fard (a must). So regardless of what you say, you HAVE to wear it.

Make tawba (sincere repentance) not just for sins you've committed, but also for obligations you haven't fulfilled.” [Ibn Taymiyyah]

I pray that the comfort of our graves exceeds the comfort of our beds.

We ask Allah سبحانه وتعالى to take our souls away when He's most pleased with us and make us of those who're always conscious.

Islam in nigeria needs to be led by Islamic clerics not kings.

How would those kings face God that were leading Islam while they were grossly incapable because they dont have the knowledge.

# First, it is designed politically like that and there can be no change to it. Even, the so-called Emir of Kano might be Islamically knowledgeable but he's definitely not the type that practice Islam to the dictate of Allah and His Prophet.

You are right and thats how it should be but am afraid That would be far worse. This is a country where so-called scholars don't respect each other's opinion and view with each one of them wearing the mantle of I have knowledge more than him.

# Then there is tribal problem deeply ingrained into the faith. Hausa-Fulani for example will never accept a Yoruba to be his leader no matter what his scholarly and spiritual degree is.

# Then, comes the division of the ummah into various factions. If Sufi (who are basically majority) is chosen as the leader, you see eternal critism and opposition from other quarters. And vice versa.

# Sectarianism apart, countries like Saudi, Jordan, Oman, Qatar, Morocco etc are being ruled by the King. Religious scholars are under them and if you dare speaks against the king, you face the consequences. Like or hate it, Iran is the only country where a religious leader rules the state. Even the President is under him.

# I simply don't think Nigeria is ready for such. Everything is too politically and socially ingrained.

Some people wear dirty clothes, punish themselves thinking it's Zuhd Like that was how Hasan Al-Basri (Rahimahullah) who they all revere practised his own Zuhd

Ibnul Jawzi wrote a book where he mentioned that Hasan Al-basri left behind a white cloak made of wool which he had worn exclusively of any other for the past twenty years, winter and summer, and that when he died , it was in a state of immaculate beauty, cleanness, and quality. He
wore the best clothes

Some youngsters seem more preoccupied with looking for who to refute and slander rather than spending time learning the Deen.

This is a less than 2 mins video of a Saudi man. He has something to tell us.

There is this dangerous trend in Nigeria of Muslim men especially Yoruba marrying Christian women under the guise of Esin o ko, Anobi fe keferi.

Ha!

What happened to all the chaste Muslim Sisters around. It shouldn't be the first option especially when we know kids tend to identify more with their mothers than their fathers and the mother most likely won't convert. An important condition for marrying a non-Muslim woman is that you should be in a position where you are not afraid that your child will be forced into Kufr. My people say Iya lo lomo. The chances of your kids choosing Christianity over Islam are very high (9/10). Let's also not forget that they give them gifts and other goodies in church. That's all kids want. I've seen so many cases of children born to Muslim fathers practising Christianity. You have a situation whereby your kids follow you to Jumah and then still attend church on Sunday. Audhubillah!

I urge folks to read more about the Islamic POV as regards this.

Very true but sad.

Truth be told as well. Some Muslim women complain about meeting bogus Muslim males with sad characters. It is 2-ways.

Why when Quran says, "Let there be no compulsion in Din..."?

why don't you listen to what prompted that?

Seun, I think text size feature doesn't work too. You may want to look into that as well.
