Khutba: The Station of the Scholars

In this Khutbah Ustaadh Rayaan mentions a few points regarding the high station of the scholars.

The true scholars are those that return the people back to the Quraan, the Sunnah and the understanding of the early pious generations. They are upon goodness and they are the inheritors of the Prophets.

The scholars have a virtue above all of the other believers, in every time period. Allaah has raised them in terms of their knowledge.

We preserve their status with love & respect and with our tongue by praising their knowledge & goodness.

Envy is The Most Despicable Trait – By Imaam Ibnul Jawzi [rahimahullaah]

Imaam Ibnul Jawzi [rahimahullaah] said:

Envy is the most despicable trait. The first deed of disobedience through which Allaah was disobeyed in the heavens was Iblees’s envy towards Aadam and the [first deed of disobedience through which Allaah was disobeyed] in the earth was Qaabil’s envy toward Haabil.

Khutba: Self Rectification

In this Khutbah Ustaadh Rayaan gives us a stark reminder that we need to remain steadfast, even after the month of Ramadhaan has passed.

We must realise that Ramadhaan has left but we are still here.

Do not make false hopes in yourself that something external will automatically change you, that it will make you good without any effort. Don’t be of those that are dragged along by the dunya.

Allaah has blessed us with a whole month where it is easy for us to change, for us to rectify ourselves, to sink in a firmly rooted intention. We should strive to make a plan of action of what to do after Ramadhaan.

Let us continue our good deeds after Ramadhaan and let us not let the passing of Ramadhaan cause the decrease of our deeds.

Let us protect ourselves from what takes us away from the good deeds and let us take the means to self rectification.
