إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ لِلَّهِ ,نَحْمَدُهُ ,وَنَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُهُ , وَنَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا وَمِنْ سَيِّئَاتِ أَعْمَالِنَا ,مَنْ يَهْدِهِ اللهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ , وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ , وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ
صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ وَباَرِكْ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلىَ آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلِّمْ تَسْلِيْماً كَثِيْراً
My brothers and sisters,
ALLAH SWT says in the holy Quran:
قُلۡ يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلنَّاسُ إِنِّى رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ إِلَيۡڪُمۡ جَمِيعًا ٱلَّذِى لَهُ ۥ مُلۡكُ ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٲتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ
Say (O Muhammad): O mankind! I am the messenger of Allah to you all – (the messenger of) Him unto Whom belongs the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth.
And the same ayah further says:
فَـَٔامِنُواْ بِٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ ٱلنَّبِىِّ ٱلۡأُمِّىِّ ٱلَّذِى يُؤۡمِنُ بِٱللَّهِ وَڪَلِمَـٰتِهِۦ وَٱتَّبِعُوهُ لَعَلَّڪُمۡ تَهۡتَدُونَ
So believe in Allah and His messenger, the Prophet SAW who is unlettered (can neither read nor write), who believes in Allah and in His Words, and follow him so that you may be guided.
Our Prophet SAW is sent towards all the humanity, all the humanity that existed 14 centuries ago; and also to all the mankind coming after him until the day of QIyamah.
The message brought by Rasool ALLAH is the kalaam of ALLAH, the word of ALLAH, a guidance for humanity, the message brought to him by the most highest of the malaik , Jibriel e Ameen. And the ummah who receives the message of ALLAH becomes the highest ranked among all the umam.
كُنتُمۡ خَيۡرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخۡرِجَتۡ لِلنَّاسِ تَأۡمُرُونَ بِٱلۡمَعۡرُوفِ وَتَنۡهَوۡنَ عَنِ ٱلۡمُنڪَرِ وَتُؤۡمِنُونَ بِٱللَّهِۗ
You are the best Ummah ever raised for the mankind, you urge the right conduct and forbid indecency; and you believe in ALLAH.
My brothers, the message is to hold strong the seerat of Rasool ALLAH, and hold strong the sayings of ALLAH SWT, which is the Quran.
وَٱعۡتَصِمُواْ بِحَبۡلِ ٱللَّهِ جَمِيعً۬ا وَلَا تَفَرَّقُواْۚ
And hold fast, all of you together, to the cord of Allah (which is the quran), and be not divided.
May ALLAH SWT keep us united as one ummah, as this is a very sensitive time for the Muslim ummah, and we need to show unity and solidarity towards our brothers who are oppressed in Palestine. May ALLAH help them, steadfast their feet in defending the Masjid al Aqsa, and give them strength, and give them rewards of the sahaba like Khalid ibn al waleed and Abu ubaidah. Amen
