Jumuʿah Khutbah delivered by Shaykh Amin Kholwadia, director and founder of Darul Qasim College, on February 13th, 2026.
In this Friday bayan, Shayky Amin reflects on the pillars of Islam being rooted entirely in ʿibādah, and free from politics or worldly motives. Fasting, in particular, reveals the essence of worship: Allah ﷻ, As-Samad, needs nothing from us, yet we are in complete need of Him. No government, system, or authority on earth can compel billions of people to willingly abandon their most basic biological needs—food, drink, and intimacy—purely out of unseen faith. Yet in Ramadan, Allah ﷻ prescribes it, and the Ummah responds in obedience. This collective surrender is the miracle of Ramadan: a global act of discipline driven solely by īmān bil-ghayb. Through fasting, believers cultivate taqwa, drawing closer to Allah ﷻ without withdrawing from society. In this lies the beauty of Islam—transforming hearts through pure devotion to the unseen Lord.
