The eKhutbah comes to you every Friday. This is not A Jumu'ah Sermon but simply seizing the opportunity to present that weekly reminder.
The topic this week is Blessings During The Outbreak
"I want this content deleted! My sister would never want to be remembered for this. Nobody is helping us as a family."
The email of a brother who lost his sister to Covid-19 leaving behind some embarrassing content on TikTok.
Be responsible. That's my message.
Differ by all means, but very respectfully. Those who hurl abuse at others are WRONG! They have no concern for the Ummah or Humanity. They are so desperate to shove their opinions down the throats of others and have run out of respectful ways of doing it. The price of insulting and abusing others is very heavy.
South African scholars have differed on the matter of the temporary restrictions placed on Masajid during Lockdown. Unfortunately those against the restrictions have incited their followers through their constant abuse and use of derogatory descriptions to threaten those who oppose them to the extent of violence and killing.
I felt it was my duty to guide the public never to lend an ear to those who lack the ability to communicate their opinions respectfully.

Earn the Love and Mercy of Allah during difficult times by reviving a Sunnah. Here, in recommending two beautiful practises of Prophet Muhammad pbuh. Both connected to fasting.
Male, Maldives, 14 Jan 2020
A Muslim believes in the Maker, the Worshiped One, to whom we owe our worship, the one to whom we shall return. And every action of a Muslim shall be rewarded even when the action is not followed through. Allah rewards us our intention. Allah knows what is best for us. Allah's plan is far better for us than our own plan, When you want something and it comes to you - thank Allah. When you want something and it doesn't come to you - thank Allah twice. But how are we to achieve this state of blissful acceptance and submission of Allah's plan? The answer is rehabilitation of our deen.
We are all in need of religious rehabilitation - to reconnect with our deen. Study the globe and observe how Islam spread. It spread through respect and integrity and dignity of the Muslims. The Muslims before us displayed Islam through good examples and excellent practice of the religion.
That is our duty - to reconnect with Islam and its principles and values. Islam values honesty and amanah. Even when it seems impossible, it is not impossible to abide by Allah's edicts. Follow the examples of the prophets - Lut a.s. remained pure despite living amongst lewdness; Ibrahim a.s practiced monotheism in spite of the multitude of God statues surrounding him. Our duty is to live in such a way that a person's faith is restored through interaction with us. Set the best example of a Muslim for others to see. Remember - Every Muslim is a diplomat of Islam.
And so begin your personal rehabilitation process by taking time out of your full day to listen to this talk uploaded by Muslim Central.
