Verily, all praise is for Allah. We praise Him, we seek His assistance and we
ask for His forgiveness. And we seek refuge in Him from the evils of our
selves. Whoever Allah guides, none can misguide. Whoever He misguides,
none can guide. And I bear witness that there is no deity other than Allah
and I bear witness that Mohammad is His servant and messenger.

[102:‫عمران‬
Al Imran(3) 102 : O you who believe! Fear Allah as He should be feared, and
die not except in a state of Islam.

Oh Believers:
People lived through this noble month with its days of virtue and blessed
nights. There are those who did little and those who did much. And there
are those who were negligent, lost, distracted by amusements, and
heedless in pursuit of diversions. Thus, while they were in such a state, the
month of forgiveness and emancipation from the Hellfire passed quickly
like the passing of clouds. Congratulations to those who succeeded in
their trade and attained acceptance and forgiveness, and woe to those
who lost out, after being disgraced with disappointment and deprivation.

Indeed, the month of Ramadan is nearing its departure, and it is but like a
guest that hardly visited. We just started to enjoy its spirituality and savor
its mercies and soon it packed its bags to bid us farewell and departed as
fast as it came. How intense is the sorrow of separation, and how bitter is
the parting! If we only knew who among us triumphed and who among us
lost out and who was accepted and who was rejected.
Allah described the month of Ramadan as "a limited number of days"
indicating its short duration and how quickly it passes. Yet, these few days
carry great and immeasurable rewards. For a good deed is rewarded
tenfold to seven hundred times, but fasting exceeds that, for Allah has
ascribed its reward to Himself. The Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬said:
ُ َُ ُI َ َ َ َ ْ َ ْ َ َ َ َ ْ َ ْ َ ُ َ َ َْ ُ َ َ ُ َ َ ْ َ َ ُّ ُ
‫ﺮﺸ أﻣﺜﺎﻟ ِﻬﺎ إِﻰﻟ ﺳﺒِﻌِﻤﺎﺋِﺔ ِﺿﻌٍﻒ إِﻰﻟ ﻣﺎ ﺷﺎء اﺑ ﻓﻘﻮل‬
ِ ِ‫ﻌ‬ ‫ﺑ‬ ‫ﺔ‬ ‫ﻨ‬ ‫ﺴ‬ ‫ﺤﻟ‬ ‫ا‬ ‫ﻒ‬ ‫ﻞﻛ ﻗﻤِﻞ اﺑِﻦ آدم ﻳﻀﺎﻗ‬
ْ َ َََ ُI َ َ ْ I I ُI
‫اﺑ إِﻻ اﻟﺼﻮم ﻓﺈِﻧﻪ ِﻲﻟ وأﻧﺎ أﺟِﺰي ﺑِِﻪ‬
Every good deed of the son of Adam will be multiplied manifold. A good
deed will be multiplied ten times up to as many as seven hundred times,
or as much as Allah wills. Allah says: ‘Except for fasting, which is for Me
and I shall reward for it. [Sunan Ibn Majah 1638, Grade: Sahih]
The fortunate person, is the one who hastens before it is too late, makes
repentance the seal of their deeds, and the conclusion of their acts of
goodness. For indeed, deeds are judged by their endings, and
repentance erases what came before it. No one who repents is ever
disgraced, and no one who turns to Allah is ever disappointed:

114 ‫ﻫﻮٍد‬-‫إِن اﺤﻟﺴﻨﺎِت ﻳﺬِﻫﻦﺒ اﻟﺴﻴﺌﺎِت ذﻟ ِﻚ ِذﻛﺮى ﻟ ِﺜاِﻛِﺮﻳﻦ‬
Hud (11) 114: Indeed, good deeds do away with misdeeds. That is a
reminder for those who remember.
And in what remains of Ramadan is a great opportunity for the obedient
to stock up, and for the negligent to make amends. For what has passed is
gone, and what is hoped for is unseen, and the wise have nothing but
their present moment. So they take from their health for their sickness,

https://www.khutbah.info/ 2
Khutbah.info
and from their life for their death. For people in this world are only like a
stranger or a wayfarer.
َ ْ ُْ ً ََ I َ ُ َُ ُI َ ً َ َ َ َ َ َ ْ َ َ
71 ‫اﻟﻔﺮﻗﺎِن‬-‫ﺑ ﻣﺘﺎﺑﺎ‬
ِ ‫وﻣﻦ ﺗﺎب وﻋِﻤﻞ ﺻﺎِﺤﻟﺎ ﻓﺈِﻧﻪ ﻓﺘﻮب إِﻰﻟ ا‬
Al-Furqan (25) 71: And he who repents and does righteousness does
indeed turn to Allāh with [accepted] repentance.
Indeed, we all know that most people are not free from heedlessness. For
this is the nature of humans. However, the intelligent and fortunate are
those who remind themselves that negligence that hinders them from
seizing acts of obedience is merely one of the obstacles in the path of
success that no one is exempt from. Therefore, the real loss, the entire
loss, is to remain down where one stumbled and fell without getting up to
continue the journey. For life is short, no matter how long it seems, and
opportunities that pass do not return. When one reaches the evening,
they do not know if they will make it to the morning, and when they reach
the morning, they do not know if they will live to see the evening.
Thus, a Muslim must take precautions against negligence as much as they
can. For among the greatest diversions from obeying their Lord is to be
afflicted with heedlessness towards Him. Because, from within
themselves, it deprives them of success and seizing the virtuous times
before the realities of life occupy them. And, herein, is where their loss
undoubtedly lies.
Then indeed, the soul of a person is like the seasons of the year. There is
summer, autumn, winter, and spring. If one does not discipline their self
to accept these seasons and place them in their due places, they will not
attain satisfaction. And they deceive themselves when they think that they
can live perpetually in a single season. For Allah has moments of grace
that one should avail themselves to and not neglect in the slightest. Lest a
soul should say on the Day of Judgment:
I َ ُ I َ َ ََٰ َٰ َ ْ َ َ ٌ ْ َ َ ُ َ َ
‫ﺑ‬ ِ ‫أن ﻳﻘﻮل ﻏﻔﺲ ﻳﺎ ﺣﺮﺴﻰﺗ ﺒﻟ ﻣﺎ ﻓﺮﻃﺖ ِﻲﻓ ﺟﻨ‬
ِ ‫ﺐا‬
Az-Zumar: 56: Lest a soul should say, "Oh, [how great is] my regret over
what I neglected in regard to Allāh.

Indeed, the opportunities for drawing closer to Allah in this blessed
month are more abundant and blessed than at other times. Whoever
squanders these opportunities is even more likely to waste other
opportunities.
Woe to those who do not know Allah in Ramadan, and woe to those who
only know Allah in Ramadan. Blessed are those who know Allah at all
times and moments, making the virtuous seasons profitable and
advantageous. For every good habit that a person adopts from Ramadan
and resolves to continue thereafter is their true success, following the
guidance of their Prophet ‫ ﷺ‬when he said to Abdullah bin Amr bin Al-'As:
َ I َ َ َ َ َََ ْI َ ْ ُ ُ َ َ َ َُ َْ ْ ُ َ َ I َ َْ َ َ

O Abdullah, do not be like so-and-so; he used to pray at night and then
stopped praying at night. [ Bukhari 1152 and Muslim 1159]

ُ‫ﺣﻴﻢ‬ َ ّ ُ ُ َ َ ُ ُ َّ ُ ُ ْ َ ْ َ ْ َ ّ ُ ْ ْ ُ َ َ َ ُ ْ َ ْ ََ َ ُ َ ْ َ َ ُ ُ َ

I say what you have heard and I seek forgiveness from Allah for me and you
from every sin. So seek forgives from Him, Verily He is Oft-Forgiving, the
Most Merciful.

Oh people:
Know that from among Allah's favor, mercy and wisdom is that He
Almighty has made the sorrow of parting with Ramadan followed by the
https://www.khutbah.info/ 4
Khutbah.info
joy of welcoming Eid. This is so that the soul is prepared to deal with the
turbulences of life and the alternation of circumstances with genuine iman
(faith), with conviction that everything is from Allah, and that sorrow may
be followed by joy, and joy may be followed by sadness. The true believer
worships their Creator through both sorrows and joys.
If there is sorrow with the conclusion of this blessed month, it is the sorrow
of those who have been neglectful towards Allah, whose hearts have not
savored Ramadan. They have been overtaken by the successful while they
remained captives to their negligence and heedlessness. And if there is
joy in the conclusion of Ramadan, it is the joy of the obedient. Those
whose hearts drank deeply from the spring of this noble month until they
were satiated with its pure waters, and became among those freed from
the Fire.
Then know, that Allah has prescribed Zakat al-Fitr as a purification for you
and as a form of gratitude to your Creator. So, discharge it as it has been
prescribed upon you, for males and females, young and old, and on
behalf of those you support. Zakat al-Fitr should be given from what
people eat. Abu Sa'id al-Khudri, may Allah be pleased with him, said:
َ َ َ ً َ ْ َ َ َ I ُ I َ I َ ْ َ ُ ُْ Iُ
‫ﺑ ﺻﻰﻠ اﷲ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ وﺳﻠﻢ ﻳﻮم اﻟِﻔﻄِﺮ ﺻﺎﺨ ِﻣﻦ ﻃﻌﺎٍم وﻗﺎل أﺑﻮ‬ ِ ‫ﻛﻨﺎ ﺨﻧِﺮج ﻲﻓ ﻗﻬِﺪ رﺳﻮِل ا‬

We used to give, during the time of the Messenger of Allah ‫ ﷺ‬, on the
day of Fitr, one **ṣāʿ of food. Abu Sa‘id (may Allah be pleased with him)
said: and our food was barley, raisins, dried curds, and dates. [Bukhari
1510 and Muslim 985]
This includes rice and other staples. and the better the food that is given,
the better. Allah, exalted and high, says:
َ َْ َ ُّ ُ I ُ ُْ I َ I ْ ُ ََ َْ
92 ‫آِل ِﻋﻤﺮان‬-‫ﺤﺗﺒﻮن‬ِ ‫ﺎ‬ ‫ﻤ‬ ‫ﻣ‬

Al-Imran (3) 92: Never will you attain the good [reward] until you spend
[in the way of Allāh] from that which you love.

The time for discharging it is on Eid day before the prayer, and it is
permissible to discharge it one or two days before Eid.
May Allah accept from us and from you our fasting and prayers, and
forgive us and you of our sins and misdeeds, and help us and you in
making the most of what remains of our month, and seal it for us and for
you with pardon, forgiveness, and emancipation from the Fire. Indeed, He
is All Hearing, Answering.

I conclude with this and send prayers of blessings and peace upon your
Prophet as your Lord commanded:

Al Ahzaab (33) 56: Indeed, Allah confers blessing upon the Prophet, and
His angels [ask Him to do so]. O you who have believed, ask [ Allah to
confer] blessing upon him and ask [ Allah to grant him] peace.

O Allah, guide us with those whom You have guided, grant us well-being
among those You have granted well-being, be an ally to us along with
those whom You are an ally to, and bless what You have bestowed upon
us, and save us from the evil of what You have decreed. For verily You
decree and none can decree over You. He whom You support can never be
humiliated. Glory is to You, our Lord, You are Blessed and Exalted.

difficult matters. And, establish the prayer.
