الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ يُحِقُّ الْحَقَّ وَيُبْطِلُ الْبَاطِلَ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُجْرِمُونَ
Hvala Allahu, Koji istinu utvrđuje, a neistinu poništava, makar to bilo mrsko zločincima (usp. El-Enfal, 8).

وَنَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَنَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَحَبِيبُهُ وَصَفِيُّهُ وَخَلِيلُهُ
Svjedočimo da nema boga osim Allaha, Jedinog, Koji nema sudruga, i svjedočimo da je Muhammed Njegov rob, miljenik, odabranik i prijatelj.

أَدَّى الْأَمَانَةَ وَبَلَّغَ الرِّسَالَةَ وَنَصَحَ الْأُمَّةَ وَجَاهَدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ حَقَّ جِهَادِهِ حَتَّى أَتَاهُ الْيَقِينُ وَتَرَكَنَا عَلَى الْمَحَجَّةِ الْبَيْضَاءِ لَيْلُهَا كَنَهَارِهَا لَا يَزِيغُ عَنْهَا بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا هَالِكٌ
Izvršio je emanet, dostavio poslanicu, savjetovao ummet i borio se na Allahovom putu onako kako treba, sve dok mu nije došla smrt. Ostavio nas je na jasnom, bijelom putu čija je noć kao dan – od njega poslije njega skreće samo onaj ko propada.
- 1:13
قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فِي كِتَابِهِ الْكَرِيمِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ الْعَظِيمُ أَمَّا بَعْدُ
Uzvišeni Allah kaže u Svojoj plemenitoj Knjizi: U ime Allaha, Milostivog, Samilosnog. „O vjernici, bojte se Allaha onako kako Ga se treba bojati i ne umirite drugačije nego kao muslimani!“ (Ali Imran, 102). Istinu je rekao Allah Veličanstveni. A zatim:
- 1:27
Sva slava i zahvala pripadaju Allahu, dželle šanuhu, Gospodaru svega stvorenog, Gospodaru znanog i neznanog, Gospodaru Sudnjeg dana, Gospodaru Arša plemenitog. Neka su iskreni salavati i selami na najboljeg čovjeka koji je ikada kročio zemaljskom kuglom, Muhammeda, njegovu časnu, vrlo poštovanu porodicu, njegove drugove ashabe i sve one koji slijede put islama, put Kur'ana, put spasa do Sudnjeg dana. Allahumme amin.
- 1:55
Uvažena braćo i poštovani vjernici, cijenjeni džematlije, Allah, dželle šanuhu, sve što je stvorio, stvorio je sa razlogom i stvorio je sa svrhom. Ne postoji ništa što je stvoreno, a da nema razlog stvaranja i da nema svoju funkciju funkcionisanja.
- 2:11
Ako pogledamo, braćo, planine, mora, okeane, ono što je Allah stvorio na nebesima, ono što je Allah, dželle šanuhu, stvorio na Zemlji, ono što je Allah, dželle šanuhu, stvorio u zemlji, vidjet ćemo da sve što je stvoreno ima svoj razlog i svoju mudrost, zbog čega je Apsolutno Mudri bilo što stvorio.
- 2:34
Šta mislite, kako je, braćo, sa čovjekom kojeg je Allah, dželle šanuhu, odlikovao nad svim ostalim stvorenjima, kojeg je Allah, dželle šanuhu, odlikovao nad svim ostalim bićima, kada je Allah, dželle šanuhu, čovjeka postavio kao namjesnika na Zemlji? I sve nam je, braćo, Allah podredio na ovome svijetu.
- 2:53
Sve što se nalazi na ovome svijetu, na dunjaluku, stvoreno je zbog čovjeka, odnosno da služi čovjeku. I mi imamo apsolutnu slobodu izbora. Kako ćemo iskoristiti to što nam je Allah, dželle šanuhu, podredio na Zemlji? Kako ćemo iskoristiti blagodati koje nam je Allah, dželle šanuhu, podario?
- 3:09
Hoćemo li te blagodati koristiti onako kako je Allah, dželle šanuhu, zadovoljan, ili ćemo, ne daj Bože, blagodati koje nam je Allah dao – a mnogo toga nam je Allah dao – koristiti na loš način, kojim On Uzvišeni nije zadovoljan? U tom kontekstu kaže Uzvišeni Allah u suri Ez-Zarijat: Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. „A džinne i ljude nisam stvorio ni zbog čega drugog osim da Mi ibadet čine“, osim da Mi budu pokorni.
- 3:40
Ibadet je, braćo, jako širok pojam. Jedna od definicija ibadeta jeste da je ibadet sve ono što Allah, dželle šanuhu, voli i čime je zadovoljan od riječi i djela. Šta to znači? To znači da naš kompletan život može da bude ibadet.
- 3:57
I Allah, dželle šanuhu, kaže u Kur'anu: Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. „قُلْ إِنَّ صَلَاتِي وَنُسُكِي“ – „Reci: namaz moj, obredi moji“, „وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ“ – „život moj i smrt moja pripadaju Gospodaru svih svjetova.“
- 4:13
I kompletan, braćo, naš život može da bude ibadet. I pogrešna je percepcija islama, pogrešno je rezonovanje islama, ako mislimo da je ibadet samo namaz, ako mislimo da je ibadet samo post, ako mislimo da je ibadet samo davanje zekata i obavljanje hadža. Jesu to elementarni, temeljni i suštinski ibadeti u islamu.
- 4:33
Ali ako bismo pogledali parcijalno, procentualno, koliko ti ibadeti vremena oduzimaju od našeg života… Koliko nam je, braćo, vremena potrebno za pet dnevnih namaza u toku dana i noći? Manje od sat vremena. Koliko nam je potrebno da postimo u toku godine?
- 4:49
Jedan mjesec u odnosu na 12 mjeseci. Kako i ko daje zekat? Zekat daju oni koji su imućni, jedan put u godini. Hadž ljudi obavljaju, i obavezni su da obave hadž, opet oni koji su u mogućnosti – koliko puta? Jedan put u životu je obaveza.
- 5:07
I koliko, braćo, traje hadž? Obavljanje hadža, propisi hadža traju pet, šest dana možda, otprilike. Postavlja se pitanje šta ćemo da radimo sa ostatkom života. Jer vidimo procentualno da jako mali vremenski period provodimo u tim nekim nama poznatim ibadetima.
- 5:25
I u tom smislu moramo, braćo, da shvatimo da je ibadet jako širok pojam. Da je ibadet jako širok pojam. Jeste ibadet u džamiji, ali kompletan naš život može da bude ibadet. Kaže Poslanik, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, u hadisu kojeg prenosi Ebu Hurejre: svaki dan kada čovjek osvane, kada sunce izađe, čovjek je u obavezi da udijeli sadaku na svaki svoj zglob na tijelu.
- 5:51
I Poslanik nas, braćo, obavještava, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, šta je sve to sadaka. Jeste sadaka materijalno, ali i sadaka je širi pojam. I kaže Poslanik, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, u ovom hadisu: da čovjek pravedno presudi između dvije osobe – sadaka. Ukloniti ono što smeta prolaznicima, putnicima, je sadaka. Lijepa riječ je sadaka.
- 6:13
Svaki korak, braćo, upućen prema džamiji je sadaka. Također, rad je ibadet. A svi mi ovdje radimo. I to je, braćo, djelo koje je jako drago Gospodaru. Jedne prilike jedan čovjek, kako nam prenosi hadis Ka'b ibn Udžre, radijallahu anhu, je prošao pored Poslanika, alejhis-selam, i skupine ashaba. I na tom čovjeku su se vidjeli tragovi rada. I oni koji su bili prisutni dali su malo više sebi za pravo da prokomentarišu, rekavši: „Kad bi ovaj čovjek iskoristio svoju snagu i svoje tijelo na Allahovom putu“, odnosno u borbi na Allahovom, dželle šanuhu, putu.
- 6:51
Pogledajte kako je odgovorio Poslanik, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem. Kaže, alejhis-selam: „Ako je ovaj čovjek kojeg spominjete izašao radi potrebe svoje male djece, on je na Allahovom putu. Ako je izašao radi potrebe svojih starijih roditelja, on je na Allahovom putu.
- 7:07
Ako je izašao radi svoje potrebe, on je na Allahovom putu. A ako je izašao radi hvalisanja ili radi pretvaranja, on je na šejtanovom putu.“ I vidimo, braćo, da je rad ibadet. Da čovjek udijeli sadaku na svoju porodicu, to je ibadet. I u tom kontekstu kaže Poslanik, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem: najbolja sadaka koju čovjek može udijeliti je sadaka na svoju porodicu.
- 7:29
Ali šta je, braćo, ovdje bitno? Bitan je nijet. Bitno je, kada te neke svakodnevne radnje radimo, da zanijetimo, ako hoćemo da imamo nagradu Gospodara. Pa kada krenemo na posao, ako nam je namjera i nijet da obezbijedimo nafaku, egzistenciju svojoj porodici, svaki minut, braćo, na poslu je ibadet.
- 7:48
Ako učenici i studenti krenu u školu, na fakultet, radi sticanja znanja, radi Allahovog, dželle šanuhu, zadovoljstva, svaka, uvažena omladino i mladići, sekunda u školi provedena na času ili na fakultetu je ibadet. Ako čovjek legne da spava sa namjerom da se odmori, da ustane na noćni namaz ili na sabah-namaz, da ustane, da bude ažuran u toku dana, da radi i tako dalje,
- 8:14
ako legne sa tom namjerom, braćo, svaka sekunda sna je ibadet. Zamislite, čovjek spava i to mu je ibadet, to mu je dobro djelo. I kao dokaz imamo predaju Muaza ibn Džebela koju bilježi imam Buhari, rahimehullahu te'ala, u svome djelu Sahihul-Buhari, u kojoj stoji:
- 8:31
„Ja u toku noći spavam i jedan dio noći provodim u ibadetu.“ I kaže, braćo, ovaj plemeniti ashab: „Ali se nadam nagradi za svoj san, za svoje spavanje, isto kao što se nadam nagradi zbog noćnog namaza.“ Ali šta je bitno? Bitno je, kao što rekoh, bitno je da zanijetimo.
- 8:51
Da nam bude, braćo, Allahovo zadovoljstvo na umu. I kompletan naš život, braćo, moramo tako da gledamo. I imat ćemo, ako Bog da, nagradu za svaku, dakle, sekundu u našem životu. Pa ako sjednemo, primjera radi, sa drugom, prijateljem, ahbabom, da popijemo kahvu, ako nam je cilj da ga vidimo, da se sa njim još malo zbližimo,
- 9:12
i ta kahva nam je ibadet. Kad odemo i obiđemo rođaka, komšiju, i to je, braćo, ibadet koji je jako drag Uzvišenom Gospodaru. Ako pomognemo, rekoh, izađemo u susret bilo kome, imamo veliku nagradu koju nam je obećao Poslanik, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem. I u tom kontekstu kaže, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, u hadisu kojeg bilježi imam Ahmed u svome Musnedu: „Da odem radi potrebe brata muslimana“ –
- 9:39
i ovdje, braćo, nije spomenuta koja potreba, radi bilo koje potrebe da čovjek ode i izađe u susret bratu muslimanu – kaže Poslanik, alejhis-selam, „to mi je draže nego da provedem mjesec dana u i'tikafu u ovoj mojoj džamiji“, misleći na svoju džamiju u Medini. Također, kada čovjek ode i obiđe bolesnika,
- 9:58
i to je, braćo, djelo koje je jako Bogu ugodno, ali čovjek će imati nagradu ako bude imao iskren nijet da se tim djelom približi Gospodaru. I kaže Poslanik, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, u hadisu, također kojeg bilježi imam Ahmed u svome Musnedu: kada čovjek ode da obiđe brata muslimana, bolesnika, kaže, on na putu prema njegovoj kući, na putu prema bolesniku, ubire džennetske plodove sve dok ne sjedne kod bolesnika.
- 10:27
A kad sjedne kod bolesnika, kaže Poslanik, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, za njega dovi 70.000 meleka sve dok ne svane, ako je posjetio bolesnika u toku noći. Ali ako je posjetio bolesnika u toku dana, kaže Poslanik, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, za njega dovi 70.000 meleka sve do noći,
- 10:47
odnosno sve dok sunce ne zađe. I pogledajte, braćo, koliko nam je Allah dao mogućnosti da radimo dobra djela. I dobra djela su jako, jako mnogobrojna. I na taj način treba da imamo percepciju ibadeta. Pa kada spavamo, ako budemo imali namjeru – Allahovo zadovoljstvo, i trebamo da vjerujemo da će nas Allah, ako Bog da, zbog toga nagraditi.
- 11:10
Kada se igramo sa svojom djecom, budimo ubijeđeni da će nas i zbog tog čina Allah, dželle šanuhu, nagraditi. I to su neke [nejasno] koje Allah daje vjernicima na ovom svijetu. A zamislite, Allah, braćo, vjernike nagrađuje, kao što kaže u Kur'anu, za svako dobro djelo od deset puta do sedam stotina puta.
- 11:30
I pogledajte kako Allah voli Svoje robove. Kako Allah nagrađuje, braćo, Svoje robove. I ono što nam je Allah propisao, i ono što Allah, dželle šanuhu, traži od nas od ibadeta, to ne treba Uzvišenom Gospodaru, to, braćo, treba nama. Ova džuma koju smo danas došli da obavimo, ona Allahu, dželle šanuhu, nije potrebna, ali potrebna je nama. I ako hoćemo da testiramo kakav je to naš stil života, kako su i koliko su kvalitetni, braćo, naši ibadeti, treba da analiziramo sebe – kakvi smo poslije tih ibadeta, kakvi ćemo biti poslije ove džume koju ćemo, ako Bog da, uskoro klanjati.
- 12:05
Molim Allaha, dželle šanuhu, da nam se smiluje, da nam život upotpuni dobrim djelima. Molim Njega Uzvišenog da nam ukabuli sva dobra djela. Molim Allaha, dželle ve ala, s ovog mubarek mjesta, u ovom mubarek danu, da nam podari dobro, nama, našim porodicama i ummetu Muhammeda, sallallahu alejhi ve sellem, svako dobro na ovom i na budućem svijetu.
- 12:24
وَأَقُولُ قَوْلِي هَٰذَا وَأَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ لِي وَلَكُمْ فَاسْتَغْفِرُوهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ
I ovo govorim i molim Allaha za oprost i sebi i vama, pa i vi od Njega oprost tražite – On je, zaista, Onaj Koji prašta i Milostiv je.
- 0:01
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ يُحِقُّ الْحَقَّ وَيُبْطِلُ الْبَاطِلَ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُجْرِمُونَ
Praise be to Allah, Who establishes the truth and abolishes falsehood, even if the criminals dislike it (cf. Al-Anfal 8:8).
- 0:48
وَنَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَنَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَحَبِيبُهُ وَصَفِيُّهُ وَخَلِيلُهُ
We bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, Who has no partner, and we bear witness that Muhammad is His servant, His beloved, His chosen one and His close friend.
- 0:58
أَدَّى الْأَمَانَةَ وَبَلَّغَ الرِّسَالَةَ وَنَصَحَ الْأُمَّةَ وَجَاهَدَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ حَقَّ جِهَادِهِ حَتَّى أَتَاهُ الْيَقِينُ وَتَرَكَنَا عَلَى الْمَحَجَّةِ الْبَيْضَاءِ لَيْلُهَا كَنَهَارِهَا لَا يَزِيغُ عَنْهَا بَعْدَهُ إِلَّا هَالِكٌ
He fulfilled the trust, conveyed the message, gave sincere counsel to the ummah and strove in the way of Allah as He deserves, until certainty (death) came to him. He left us upon the clear white path whose night is like its day; none strays from it after him except one who is ruined.
- 1:13
قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فِي كِتَابِهِ الْكَرِيمِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ صَدَقَ اللَّهُ الْعَظِيمُ أَمَّا بَعْدُ
Allah the Exalted says in His noble Book: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. “O you who believe, fear Allah as He deserves to be feared, and do not die except as Muslims.” (Al Imran 3:102). Allah the Almighty has spoken the truth. To proceed:
- 1:27
All glory and praise belong to Allah, jalla sha'nuhu (exalted is His majesty), the Lord of all creation, the Lord of the known and the unknown, the Lord of the Day of Judgement, the Lord of the noble Throne. May sincere blessings and peace be upon the best man who ever walked the face of the earth, Muhammad, upon his honourable and greatly respected family, upon his companions, and upon all those who follow the path of Islam, the path of the Qur'an, the path of salvation, until the Day of Judgement. Allahumma amin.
- 1:55
Esteemed brothers and respected believers, honoured members of the congregation, everything that Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, has created, He has created for a reason and with a purpose. There is nothing created that does not have a reason for its creation and its own function.
- 2:11
If we look, brothers, at the mountains, the seas, the oceans, at what Allah has created in the heavens, what Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, has created on the Earth, what Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, has created within the earth, we will see that everything created has its reason and its wisdom, for which the Absolutely Wise created anything at all.
- 2:34
What do you think, brothers, about man, whom Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, has favoured above all other creatures, whom Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, has favoured above all other beings, when Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, appointed man as His vicegerent on Earth? And Allah, brothers, has subjected everything in this world to us.
- 2:53
Everything in this world, in the dunya, was created for man's sake, that is, to serve man. And we have absolute freedom of choice. How will we use what Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, has subjected to us on Earth? How will we use the blessings that Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, has bestowed on us?
- 3:09
Will we use these blessings in the way that pleases Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, or will we, Allah forbid, use the blessings Allah has given us – and Allah has given us a great deal – in a bad way, with which He, the Exalted, is not pleased? In this context Allah the Exalted says in Surah Adh-Dhariyat: Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. "And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me," except to be obedient to Me.
- 3:40
Ibadah (worship), brothers, is a very broad concept. One of the definitions of ibadah is that ibadah is everything that Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, loves and is pleased with, of words and deeds. What does that mean? It means that our entire life can be ibadah.
- 3:57
And Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, says in the Qur'an: Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Rahim. "قُلْ إِنَّ صَلَاتِي وَنُسُكِي" – "Say: my prayer, my rites," "وَمَحْيَايَ وَمَمَاتِي لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ" – "my life and my death belong to the Lord of all the worlds."
- 4:13
And our entire life, brothers, can be ibadah. And it is a wrong perception of Islam, a wrong reasoning about Islam, if we think that ibadah is only prayer, if we think that ibadah is only fasting, if we think that ibadah is only giving zakat and performing Hajj. These are indeed the elementary, fundamental and essential acts of worship in Islam.
- 4:33
But if we were to look at it in part, in percentages, at how much time these acts of worship take up from our lives… How much time, brothers, do we need for the five daily prayers over the course of a day and night? Less than an hour. How much do we need to fast over the course of a year?
- 4:49
One month out of 12 months. How and who gives zakat? Zakat is given by those who are well-off, once a year. People perform Hajj, and they are obliged to perform Hajj, again those who are able – how many times? Once in a lifetime is the obligation.
- 5:07
And how long, brothers, does Hajj last? Performing the Hajj, the rites of Hajj, last perhaps five or six days, roughly. The question arises: what will we do with the rest of our lives? Because we see, in percentages, that we spend a very small amount of time in those acts of worship known to us.
- 5:25
And in this sense, brothers, we must understand that ibadah is a very broad concept. That ibadah is a very broad concept. There is ibadah in the mosque, but our entire life can be ibadah. The Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam (peace be upon him), says in a hadith narrated by Abu Hurayrah: every day when a person wakes up, when the sun rises, a person is obliged to give sadaqa (charity) for every joint in his body.
- 5:51
And the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, informs us, brothers, of all the things that count as sadaqa. Sadaqa is material, yes, but sadaqa is also a broader concept. And the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, says in this hadith: for a person to judge justly between two people – is sadaqa. Removing what obstructs passers-by, travellers, is sadaqa. A good word is sadaqa.
- 6:13
Every step, brothers, taken towards the mosque is sadaqa. Also, work is ibadah. And all of us here work. And that, brothers, is a deed that is very dear to the Lord. On one occasion, as the hadith of Ka'b ibn Ujrah, radiyallahu anhu, tells us, a man passed by the Prophet, alayhis-salam, and a group of companions. And the marks of work could be seen on that man. And those who were present took a little too much liberty in commenting, saying: "If only this man would use his strength and his body in the way of Allah," that is, in fighting in the way of Allah, jalla sha'nuhu.
- 6:51
Look at how the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, replied. He, alayhis-salam, said: "If this man you mention has gone out for the needs of his little children, he is in the way of Allah. If he has gone out for the needs of his elderly parents, he is in the way of Allah.
- 7:07
If he has gone out for his own needs, he is in the way of Allah. But if he has gone out to show off or out of pretence, he is in the way of Shaytan." And we see, brothers, that work is ibadah. For a person to spend on his family, that is ibadah. And in this context the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, says: the best charity a person can give is charity spent on his family.
- 7:29
But what, brothers, is important here? The niyyah (intention) is important. When we do these everyday actions, it is important that we make the intention, if we want to have the Lord's reward. So when we set off to work, if our aim and intention is to secure provision, a livelihood, for our family, every minute at work, brothers, is ibadah.
- 7:48
If pupils and students go to school, to university, to acquire knowledge for the pleasure of Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, then every second, esteemed youth and young men, spent in class at school or at university is ibadah. If a person lies down to sleep with the intention of resting, of getting up for the night prayer or for the Fajr prayer, of getting up and being alert during the day, of working, and so on,
- 8:14
if he lies down with that intention, brothers, every second of sleep is ibadah. Imagine, a person sleeps and it counts for him as ibadah, as a good deed. And as proof we have the narration of Mu'adh ibn Jabal recorded by Imam al-Bukhari, rahimahullahu ta'ala, in his work Sahih al-Bukhari, in which it says:
- 8:31
"I sleep during part of the night and spend another part of the night in worship." And this noble companion, brothers, says: "But I hope for a reward for my sleep, for my sleeping, just as I hope for a reward for the night prayer." But what is important? What is important, as I said, is that we make the intention.
- 8:51
That we keep, brothers, the pleasure of Allah in mind. And we must look at our entire life that way, brothers. And we will have, in sha Allah, a reward for every, that is, second of our lives. So if we sit down, for example, with a friend, a companion, a dear one, to drink a coffee, if our aim is to see him, to grow a little closer to him,
- 9:12
that coffee too is ibadah for us. When we go and visit a relative, a neighbour, that too, brothers, is ibadah that is very dear to the Exalted Lord. If we help, as I said, if we come to the aid of anyone, we have a great reward which the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, promised us. And in this context he, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, says in a hadith recorded by Imam Ahmad in his Musnad: "That I go out for the need of a Muslim brother" –
- 9:39
and here, brothers, it is not mentioned which need; for any need at all that a person goes out and comes to the aid of a Muslim brother – the Prophet, alayhis-salam, says, "is dearer to me than spending a month in i'tikaf (spiritual retreat) in this mosque of mine," referring to his mosque in Medina. Also, when a person goes and visits a sick person,
- 9:58
that too, brothers, is a deed very pleasing to Allah, but a person will have the reward if he has a sincere intention to draw closer to the Lord through that deed. And the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, says in a hadith, also recorded by Imam Ahmad in his Musnad: when a person goes to visit a Muslim brother who is ill, he says, on the way to his house, on the way to the sick person, he is gathering the fruits of Jannah (Paradise) until he sits down with the sick person.
- 10:27
And when he sits down with the sick person, the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, says, 70,000 angels pray for him until morning, if he visited the sick person during the night. But if he visited the sick person during the day, the Prophet, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, says, 70,000 angels pray for him until nightfall,

that is, until the sun sets. And look, brothers, how many opportunities Allah has given us to do good deeds. And good deeds are very, very numerous. And this is how we should perceive ibadah. So when we sleep, if we have the intention – the pleasure of Allah – we should believe that Allah, in sha Allah, will reward us for it.

When we play with our children, let us be convinced that Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, will reward us for that act too. And these are some [unclear] that Allah gives to the believers in this world. And imagine, brothers, Allah rewards the believers, as He says in the Qur'an, for every good deed from ten times up to seven hundred times.

And look how Allah loves His servants. How Allah rewards, brothers, His servants. And what Allah has prescribed for us, and what Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, asks of us in terms of worship, the Exalted Lord does not need it; it is we, brothers, who need it. This Jumu'ah that we have come to perform today – Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, does not need it, but we need it. And if we want to test what our way of life is like, how and how high in quality, brothers, our acts of worship are, we should analyse ourselves – what we are like after those acts of worship, what we will be like after this Jumu'ah, which we will, in sha Allah, soon pray.

I ask Allah, jalla sha'nuhu, to have mercy on us and to fill our lives with good deeds. I ask Him, the Exalted, to accept all our good deeds. I ask Allah, jalla wa 'ala, from this blessed place, on this blessed day, to grant goodness to us, to our families and to the ummah of Muhammad, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, every good in this world and in the world to come.

وَأَقُولُ قَوْلِي هَٰذَا وَأَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ لِي وَلَكُمْ فَاسْتَغْفِرُوهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ
And I say these words of mine and ask Allah for forgiveness for myself and for you, so ask Him for forgiveness; truly He is the Oft-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.
