Why We Gather on Fridays explores the meaning of Jumuʿah beyond routine: a weekly pause to worship, listen, reconnect and return to the priorities that can become blurred through the week.
In this first episode of Friday Khutbahs with Idris the Revert, Idris reflects on gathering as Muslims, the value of making space for worship, and how Friday can become a steady point of renewal rather than simply another date in the calendar.
This is a reflective reminder, not a substitute for a local khutbah, qualified scholarship or personal religious guidance. For questions about your circumstances or matters of religious practice, speak with a qualified local teacher or scholar.
New episodes every Friday. Listen, reflect, and practise one step.
This podcast is part of our ʿIbādah — Worship series, for New Muslims.
