  • Khutbah 4 August 2023 (Tamil) - Thinking Well of Others
    • Verse 12 in Al-Hujurat that was just recited reminds us to avoid having a prejudicial attitude. This is because having a prejudicial attitude can cause a person to be quick to judge, and to look down on other people. These are behaviours that are frowned upon in Islam.
      • As Muslims and as believers, we should not have, in our dictionary of life, the term "having a bad opinion" of other people. What more thinking that we are better than others, while we ourselves do not know how the journey of our lives will end! Can we consider ourselves to have reached perfection in our good deeds? Are we certain that all the acts of worship that we have done will surely guarantee a beautiful end for ourselves? These are questions we should continually ask ourselves, so that we may remain humble.

      • Khutbah 28 July 2023 (Tamil) - The Essence of Migration in Islam
        • The concept of migration in Islam is much broader than just a physical movement from place to place. Rather, the essence of migration is to leave everything that is forbidden by Allah (s.w.t)
        • Making positive changes and improvements is the essence of migration as taught by our Prophet (s.a.w.).
          • What changes can we implement to ensure the well-being of our family? Are there relationships that need to be re-established? Are there any disagreements that need to be resolved? Or do we need to work on improving our family’s religiosity?

          • Khutbah 21 July 2023 (Tamil) - Navigating The Changing World Through Knowledge
            • The Prophet (s.a.w) encourages us to stay informed about the developments of our time, as change is an inevitable part of the passing of time. What was once considered normal in the past may no longer be the norm now.
            • The rapid advancement of technology is a key example of this. While it brings many opportunities, it also requires us to remain vigilant of these changes and adapt accordingly.
            • As the world rapidly evolves, we also witness developments and changes in the workplace. A wise individual is aware of all these developments. To fulfill their responsibilities to the best of their abilities, they persist in seeking knowledge and refining their skills. They seize available opportunities, recognizing that the pursuit of knowledge is a lifelong effort.

            • Khutbah 14 July 2023 (Tamil) - The Importance of Communication Between Family Members
              • Our religion encourages us to choose our friends and companions carefully. As the Prophet (s.a.w.) said: "A person's religion depends on the religion of his close friends. Observe who is made his close friend." (Hadith narrated by Abu Daud and Tirmidhi) Surely, one will be influenced by those around him.
                • Certainly, the wide range of social media platforms and communication systems provide us with many benefits. However, they also provide opportunities for certain individuals to misuse these platforms for malicious purposes, such as promoting drug abuse. It must be highlighted that any form of drug abuse is forbidden by our religion. Drug abuse violates the principle of preservation of life, soul, and intellect, which are all emphasised in Islam.

                • Khutbah 07 July 2023 (Tamil) - Showing Mercy to Our Family
                  • There are two core family values mentioned in the verse, i.e., love and mercy. These values must be demonstrated throughout our interactions and dealings with our family members, especially during times of conflict.
                    • Disagreements and conflicts that occur between spouses are a normal part of family life. However, in trying to solve such conflicts, one must not resort to violence of any form. This is because what should guide every believer is religious guidance, derived from both the Qur’an and the Sunnah. We should not be driven by our own personal interests and desires.
