A Great Lesson For Muslims by Nouman Ali Khan
After the Muslim victory in the Battle of Badr, Allah revealed Aya 70 of Surat Al-Anfaal. Here, He commands his Prophet to let the prisoners of war know that if He sees that there is goodness in them, He will see a way through for them. Itâs an incredible acknowledgment that goodness lies deep inside the hearts of people and that even in the most obvious situations, weâre not in a position to judge. We may criticize actions, but to judge someone's character altogether or label them as good or bad, thatâs not up to us.

Ustd. Nouman advise us on how we should build a great community Islamic Center of Irving
In Surat Al-Qalam, Allah tells the cautionary tale of two farmers who conspired to harvest their crop very early in the day to avoid the pleading hands of the needy, only to find that their entire crop had been destroyed to the point that they couldnât even recognize their own garden. Before Allah, they were made bankrupt both physically and spiritually for denying the rights of the poor in their hearts. Merely thinking about the needy as a nuisance is a disease of the heart and in this story, the intention to withhold charity was enough to enrage Allah. We must not allow any corruption in our hearts to manifest in things that will harm us in this life and the next.
Jumuah Khutbah
There are people in this world who deny that they do anything bad because shaytan has beautified their deeds for them. And there are others who admit that theyâre bad, but blame others for it, just like Prophet Yusufâs conspiring brothers who used that as an excuse to throw him into the well. This is the biggest lie you can tell yourself. You are the only one responsible for the way you are and for the choices you make. Pointing fingers and assigning blame won't change anything. Some of the greatest prophets had terrible wives, children or parents, but they endured. We cannot hide behind other people to justify our own flaws but must fix ourselves to the best of our ability.
Nouman Ali Khan gives us an in depth overview of Surah Tahreem.
With great eloquence, the hoopoe in Surat An-Naml reports back to Prophet Suleiman about what he saw in Sheba and how the queen and her people were prostrating to the sun. This amazing bird gives a profound analysis of how the shaytan has beautified their rituals and prevented them from the correct path to the point where they will accept no guidance. We learn from this story that each of Allahâs creatures has its own language and that they record what human beings do. They are all witnesses to our actions, and just because they don't speak comprehensibly to us now, doesn't mean that they wonât do so on judgment day.
In an incredible recurring phrase in the Quran, Allah says that He loves those who repent over and over again, those he calls âattawwabeenâ. Massive in his love, and incredibly infinite in his mercy Allah doesnât simply say that he accepts the repentance of those who continue sinning and disobeying, He says that He love them because they also continue repenting. No human being is even remotely capable of such sentiments.
After the defeat of the Muslims in the Battle of Uhud, Allah revealed aya 139 of Surat Aali Imran, giving believers timeless lessons in dealing with dejection. Allah advises us against allowing failure and disappointment to wear us down, describing with great precision the state of grief people will enter after a serious blow. He tells us not to let this sadness overwhelm us and not to beat ourselves up because our faith in Allah has placed us in a supreme position. While situations change, Allah is a constant source of empowerment.
This Khutbah was recorded on November 4th, 2016 in Malaysia. The most talked-about nation in the Quran, says Nouman Ali Khan, is Beni Israel. But this is no coincidence. Allah uses the trials and tribulations of the Israelites as a point of reference for Muslims to prepare us mentally for what we will go through and to learn from their mistakes. In Surah Al-Baqarah, through the story of the 12 tribal leaders, Prophet Samuel and Taloot, Allah evokes a peculiar chapter in that history to draw the line between religion and politics. As an Ummah we learn that there will be politicians who will try to manipulate religious scholars, seeking their endorsement to legitimize their undeserved authority. This is why scholars must be politically savvy and are commanded to give trust and responsibility only to those who deserve them, otherwise they will create chaos.
In aya 12 of Surat Yunus, Allah describes those who turn to Him only when they are facing troubles but refuse to acknowledge his generosity after He alleviates them of their burdens. From this we learn that Allah removes difficulty from people who don't thank him and even when He knows that their calls to Him are not genuine. Just try to imagine what He will do for those who are grateful to him?
