`Eid Khutbah at As-Siddiq Mosque
Inshaa-Allah we will do the khutbah, which is part of the `Eid prayer and it is a sunnah, as are the two raka`ats of the `Eid Prayer.

Glory and Exalted be He Who has obliged the `Eid Prayers on the believers altogether from all creation and forbidden fasting five days: the Day of `Eid and three days directly after and the Day of Fastbreaking (`Eid al-Fitr), hosting the Muslim men and women from His Own Self. Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, laa ilaaha illa-Llah! Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar wa lillaahi ‘l-hamd!

Glory be to He Who is glorified by the Seven Heavens and the Tremendous Throne and the Blessed Ka`bah and the Yemeni Corner and the Hateem and the Station of Abraham, may He be Exalted, Possessor of Generosity and Munificence! Glory be to He Who has affection towards all Creation from His Generosity and Overwhelming Giving, and Who has provided the provision of His Servants, for He is the Owner of the Servants! Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, laa ilaaha illa-Llah! Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar wa lillaahi ‘l-hamd!

(Surat al-Baqara, 2:125)
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar laa ilaha ila-Allah! Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar wa lillaahi ‘l-hamd!

Ayyuha ‘l-mu’minoon. Itaqullaahi wal mati`oo ilaa taqaa wa mawdheena wahsinoon. Qaala Allahu ta`alaa fee Kitaabihi ‘l-Kareem:
مَا يَنطِقُ عَنِ الْهَوَى إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا وَحْيٌ يُوحَى
Wa maa yantiqu `ani 'l-hawaa in huwa illa wahyun yoohaa.
Nor does he say (aught) of (his own) desire. It is no less than inspiration sent down to him.
(Surat an-Najm, 53:1-4)
O Muslims! O Believers! Allah (swt) said in the Holy Qur’an, giving an oath, “By the shooting stars, what the Prophet (s) says to you is a Revelation.” Wa maa yantiqu `ani ‘l-hawaa, “He does not say anything from himself, it is from Allah.” What he revealed to us is a wahi from Allah (swt) and he, Sayyid ar-Rasool, the Master of all Masters, the Prophet of all Prophets, the Seal of Messengers, the Leader Above every Leader, the Knower above every Knower, Sayyidina Muhammad, `alayhi `afdalu 's-salaatu wa 's-salaam, said to us by revelation from Allah (swt) in the Holy Qur’an:
إِنَّ اللّهَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْعَدْلِ وَالإِحْسَانِ وَإِيتَاء ذِي الْقُرْبَى وَيَنْهَى عَنِ الْفَحْشَاء وَالْمُنكَرِ وَالْبَغْيِ يَعِظُكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ
Inna-Llaaha yaamuru bi’l-`adli wa’l-ihsaan, wa eetaa ‘idhi’l-qurbaa wayanhaa `ani’l-fahshaai wal-munkari wal-baghyee ya1ithukum la`allakum tadhakkaroon.
Allah commands justice, the doing of good, and liberality to kith and kin, and He forbids all shameful deeds, and injustice and rebellion. He instructs you, that you may receive admonition.
(Surat an-Nahl, 16:90)
Allah (swt) does not accept anything that is disobedient to Him. He forbids any kind of sins that people are doing on Earth. He doesn't like anything incomplete, He likes everything to be completed nicely and perfectly. That means our every `amal must be perfect, but we cannot be perfect because we are struggling with the power of evil that attacks us all every moment! It attacks relationships, destroys marriages, destroys friendship, destroys what is between shuyookh and their mureeds! To destroy everything, Shaytan is not sitting quietly! He is everywhere, attacking those who have lights, especially in their hearts. Shaytan does not care about those who don’t have lights, but he enters to destroy those who know and love each other, he enters families to disturb that love. And what did Allah (swt) say in the Holy Qur’an that he revealed to the Prophet (s)? Inna-Llaaha yaamuru bi’l-`adli wa’l-ihsaan, “Allah commands justice, the doing of good.”
Allah orders us to be just. Allah ordered justice, not to override others and attack them, not to backbite or spread bad rumors, as He does not like these characteristics; rather, He wants `adil, justice. Think about yourself, are you just every moment? Think about your way of life, do you give justice to yourself, to your neighbors, your community, your country? Allah (swt) said, “InnAllaha ya’muroo” Allah verbally and directly ordered this; it is not an indirect ayah, although there are many others that are giving indirectly, but this is ‘ya`’moor!’ which means, “You have to obey and fulfill what I am saying!” Allah (swt) is saying to us, “Follow what is just, follow good judgment and don't follow your desires!” When you are just, then you have Ihsaan, the highest level of perfection.
Prophet (s), who does not say anything from himself but only speaks from Divine Revelation, said in the hadith:
انما بعثت لاتمم مكارم الاخلاق
Innamaa bu`ithtu li utammimu makaarim al-akhlaaq.
I have been sent to perfect the best of conduct (your behavior and character). (Bazzaar)
This means all that all Prophets who came before the Seal of Prophets (s) have to him as they have been ordered to love him! All Prophets were ordered to accept Sayyidina Muhammad (s), and on the Day of Promises, Allah showed them the Reality of Prophet (s) and they accepted when Allah said to them, “If he appears in your time, you are from his ummah, and he is the Prophet.” This means everyone has accepted Sayyidina Muhammad (s), every Creation, without exception, all of them, because Allah ordered angels to make salawaat on Prophet (s) to show them, “I love this One, so you love him by praising him!”
إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا
Inna-Llaaha wa malaa'ikatahu yusalloona `ala 'n-nabiyy, yaa ayyuha ’Lladheena aamanoo salloo `alayhi wa sallimoo tasleema.
Verily, Allah and His angels send praise on the Prophet. O Believers! Pray upon him and greet him. (Surat al-Ahzaab, 33:56)
So all Prophets have to praise Sayyidina Muhammad (s), and Allah praised him more, saying:
قُلْ إِن كُنتُمْ تُحِبُّونَ اللّهَ فَاتَّبِعُونِي يُحْبِبْكُمُ اللّهُ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ذُنُوبَكُمْ وَاللّهُ غَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ
Qul in kuntum tuhibboona 'Llaaha fattabi`oonee yuhbibkumullaahu wa yaghfir lakum dhunoobakum w 'Allaahu Ghafooru 'r-Raheem.
Say (O Muhammad), "If you (really) love Allah, then follow me! Allah will love you and forgive your sins, and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (Surat Aali-'Imraan, 3:31)
“O My Angels! O My Prophets! O Human Beings! If you really love Allah, follow Muhammad!”
Finished! “If you want Me and you love Me, show your love to Prophet (s), and that will come to Me.” Allah said, “Qul! ‘Say to them,’ if you love Allah, follow Muhammad!” so they have to follow him and following the Seal of Messengers (s) is to follow a perfect, complete Creation, Insaan al-Kaamil, the Perfect Human Being, such that Allah (swt) has made Adam (a) and everyone under him seek that one’s intercession on the Day of Judgment! What more do you want?
According to the Mafaheem yajib an tusah, Belief has to be Corrected, written by Sayyidina `Alawwi al-Maliki from Mecca, a big Ahlu ’s-Sunnah wa ’l-Jama`ah scholar, Ibn Qayyam al-Jawziyya (r), one of the greatest scholars that followed Ibn Taymiyya, said, “On the Day of Judgment, Allah will order Prophet to sit on the Throne!” I did not say this, it is from the tafseer of Ibn Taymiyya in Ibn Qayyam’s book, Madaarij as-Saalikeen. Go and read it!
Prophet (s) will be honored; he will be given intercession to perfect and save everyone! Intercession is not a Christian concept, although some people try to make you afraid to speak of Intercession! Allah (swt) said in Quran:
مَن ذَا الَّذِي يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِ
Man dhalladhee yashfa`u `indahu illaa bi’idhnih.
Who is it that can intercede in His Presence except as He permits? (Surat al-Baqarah, 2:255)
Prophet Muhammad (s) will intercede for his ummah, after Allah gave him the power:
انما بعثت لاتمم مكارم الاخلاق
Innamaa bu`ithtu li utammimu makaarim al-akhlaaq.
I have been sent to perfect the best of conduct (your behavior and character). (Bazzaar)
“I have been sent to complete you, not to only perfect you." Innama bu'ithu, utammin is to “complete,” not to “perfect.” After completion you can have perfection, but first is completion. Prophet (s) will complete every individual of his ummah and every lover who loves Prophet (s), will be first and who does not love Prophet (s) will be at the end!
O Muslims! Allah (swt) is saying, “If you really love Allah, follow Muhammad!” He did not say to follow anyone else. To follow Prophet (s) is to praise him, that is what we know about how to follow! As the angels are praising Prophet (s), so we will praise him, which means honoring him with whatever descriptions give him high level and honor, and Allah will be happy with that. Imam al-Busayri said, “Praise Muhammad (s) as much as you like, in every moment of your life!” But don't make him as the Christians made Sayyidina `Isa (a) ‘the Son of God,’ but give him greatness as much as you like, and Allah will be happy because Sayyidina Muhammad (s) is the Sincere Servant of Allah!
He said, “I am coming to complete you, individually (one-by-one),” which means he became responsible for us in every moment after saying this hadith! Sayyid ar-Rasool! Yaa Rasoolullah! Unzhur lanaa, undhur `alaynaa! Atmimnaa wa kammilnaa bi nazharatin min `indik, you look at us, complete us with your vision!
You don't need more than that! In one vision on the whole ummah, Prophet (s) can see them one-by-one and he doesn't need a telescope or whatever; Allah gave him power to see everyone of the ummah at the same time. If a digital TV can give you many thousands of channels at once, is there not Heavenly TV for Prophet (s) that he can see all of the ummah at one time? So when he said, “I have been sent to complete you,” he does not mean to say, “I have been sent to complete you one-by-one and I will take my time!” He has been sent Islam as the completion of Ihsaan, to really be Muslim and to be genuine mu'min is to be completed, and that power is in the hands of Prophet (s). He said, “I have been sent to complete you,” which means no one will appear incomplete on the Day of Judgment, because Prophet (s) took that responsibility.
One scholar from awliya said:
(Excerpt from al-Burdat ash-Sharifah.)
Bushra lana ma`ashar al-islaami/al-insaani fa-inna lanaa min al-`inayati ruknan ghayra munhadimi.
Where Allah addressed Sayyidina Muhammad (s) in Holy Qur'an as “Yaseen,” good tidings for us, O throngs of human beings, for we have of an indestructible pillar of support (in Prophet Muhammad [s]).
Good tidings for us, O Muslims! Inna lana min al-`inayati, Allah (swt) has given to us through His Prophet, `inaya, mercy (Care?), ruqnan ghayra mun hadhimi? like a pillar that you can rest your back against and feel relaxed, that is Rahmatan lil `Alameen, the one whom Allah has given to human beings to feel happy with his power.
“Bushra lanaa ma`shar al-Insaani, good tidings for Muslims,” but no, it is “good tidings for all humans,” everyone: that is the shafa`ah of Prophet (s)! You are going to have mercy through the shafa`ah of Prophet (s), so do you think he will leave anyone to Shaytan? A general in an army will not let the enemy take any prisoners, and with all munitions at his diposal he will do his best to prevent that, so will Prophet (s) let the enemy take one of his ummah? The enemy of human beings is the power of evil, Shaytan. Will Prophet (s) accept Shaytan to take any of his people? Do you think Allah (swt) will accept Shaytan to defeat and take them from His Hands?
O Muslims! There are some secrets that if they were opened, all of us would be drowned! There are secrets in the heart of Prophet (s) that he did not declare to anyone. Yaa Sayyidina Abu Bakr Siddiq (r)! Where are you? You were the first man to believe in Prophet (s), and Sayyidina `Ali was the first from the young ones to belive, but of the elders you were with Prophet (s) your whole life and you only mentioned 23 or 24 ahadith? Where are the others? Abu Hurayrah (r) mentioned 3,000 ahadith, and who was with Prophet (s) more, you or him?
Allah (swt) described Sayyidina Abu Bakr Siddiq (r) in the Holy Qur’an as “the friend of Prophet (s).”
إِذْ يَقُولُ لِصَاحِبِهِ لاَ تَحْزَنْ إِنَّ اللّهَ مَعَنَا
Idh yaqoolu li saahibihi laa tahzan innallaha ma`anaa.
When (the Prophet) said to his companion, "Grieve not: verily, God is with us." (Surat at-Tawba, 49:40)
He said Prophet (s) called him Saahib, “my Companion,” saahib in dunya and Akhirah! He is the right hand of Prophet (s) in dunya and Akhirah! Without him, there is no way Prophet (s) will stand by himself as he wants his Saahib, the one whom Allah (swt) described in Holy Qur`an, “Yaa Rabbee, where is Sayyidina Abu Bakr?” Allah will send him. He depends on Sayyidina Abu Bakr; his secrets are with him and all these years he was with Prophet (s), but he narrated only 23 or 25 ahadith? Where is the hidden knowledge? About Sayyidina `Ali (r), Prophet (s) said:
أنا مدينة العلم و علي بابه
Anaa madinatu 'l-`ilmi wa `Aliyyun baabuha.
I am the City of Knowledge and `Ali is its Door (or Gate). (al-Haakim, Tirmidhi)
Where is that knowledge, yaa Sayyidina `Ali (r)? Whwere is it? Are you hiding it? Open it up! We are in need of that knowledge, let everyone enjoy Allah’s Mercy. Yaa Sayyidina `Umar ibn Khattab (r)! Propeht (s) said to him, “If there were Prophets after me, you would be a Prophet.” Where is your power, where are the secrets that are between you and Propeht (s)? What are they? We need to know! It is a Shari`ah principle that whatever a Muslim knows he has to tell, so we need to know these hidden rahmat, these hidden mercies that Allah has given. Yaa Sayyidina `Uthman ibn Affaan (r)! Yaa man jama`at al-Qur’an! Yaa Sayyidee `Uthman, you compiled the Holy Qur’an, which means you compiled it with its secrets and you know better than any other person, so where is that knowledge, where are you hiding it? Are you hiding it from us so Shaytan doesn’t take it? Well, that's okay, but we need to know for then we will do better! If we knew what Allah (swt) has given to you, of what He allowed Prophet (s) to give you of His secrets, we are humbly requesting that you share this with us!
For them it is very easy, and if they look at you one time, all the knowledge can be put in your heart! O mu’mins, O Muslims! What is hidden is more and more and more than what is known! It is in the hearts of awliyaullah, as Allah (swt) said:
أَلا إِنَّ أَوْلِيَاء اللّهِ لاَ خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلاَ هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ
Alaa inna awliyaaullaahi laa khawfun `alayhim wa laa hum yahzanoon.
Behold! Verily on the friends of Allah there is no fear, nor shall they grieve. (Surah Yunus, 10:62)
“My Saints will never be sad, because I am pouring that knowledge in their hearts.” Throughout history we see how much those awliyaullah said and what secrets they brought for us to enjoy! Today is Friday, a Muslim `Eid, although every Friday is an `Eid in Heavens, when all Heavens and Earth are decorated with angels because Friday is the `Eid of the mu’minoon, those who believed in Prophet (s). But today is not only a normal weekly Friday, but this year `Eid al-Adha happened to be on Friday, which doesn't happen every year, rather once every seven/eight years, and with it comes knowledge that was never opened before. It will be open on the hearts of awilyaullah, to give them hope for their followers, for Muslims and mu’mins, and to give hope for humanity that this situation we are in will not continue!
Prophet (s) said, “In the Last Days, the Sun is going to appear from the west.” Many awliyaullah are in the west now, in order for that knowledge to appear. We are in the west. Allah is hiding His Saints, preparing knowledge, and they don't need wars! It is Knowledge of Gnosticism, Ma`arifatullah, and Ma`arifat al-Haqaa`iq, the Realities of Everything! Even observing an ant, you will understand why it was created and know what tasbeeh that ant is doing! Do you think ants can't speak or make tasbeeh? Every creature Allah created makes tasbeeh, and when that tasbeeh is finished his life is finished, even human beings, Muslims or non-Muslims. Non-Muslims’ hearts are making tasbeeh although they don’t know it.
وَإِن مِّن شَيْءٍ إِلاَّ يُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدَهِ
Wa in min shay'in illa yusabihu bihamdih.
And there is not a thing but celebrates His praise! (Surat al-Israa, 17:44)
Everything is praising Allah (swt), but you cannot understand it. Non-Muslims wear the dress of shirk, they associate partners with Allah (swt), which is their big mistake, but in Creation, Allah created everyone pure at birth, as the Prophet (s) said:
يولد الانسان على الفطرة وانما ابواه يهودانه او ينصرانه او يمجسانه
Yoolidu al-insaanu `ala ‘l-fitra fa imma abbawaahu yuhawwidaanihi aw yunasaraanihi aw yumajjisaanih.
Human beings are born on fitra, innocence; either his parents make him Jewish or Christian or Zoroastrian.
Al-Fitra is Islam. Faith is the responsibility of the parent, wherever they take their child. So Prophet (s) has given these secrets with his Sahaabah (r).
Sayyidina Abu Hurayrah (q) said:
حَفِظْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وِعَاءَيْنِ ، فَأَمَّا أَحَدُهُمَا فَبَثَثْتُهُ ، وَأَمَّا الْآخَرُ فَلَوْ بَثَثْتُهُ قُطِعَ هَذَا الْبُلْعُومُ
Hafizhtu min Rasoolullahi wi`aayni fa-amma ahaduhuma fa-bathathtahu wa amma’l-aakhiru fa law bathathtahu quti`a hadha’l-bul`oom.
I have been given two different types of knowledge from Prophet (s): one I shared with everyone, but if I share the other, they will cut this neck of mine.
And who were those who would have cut his neck? The people who were living at that time would have killed him if they had heard what Prophet (s) had given him of secrets. How many male and female Muslim, mu’min, scholars have been killed because they said some secrets that cannot be said? That is why we have to learn and keep to yourself until you can leak some of this knowledge in order that people’s hearts can accept.
O Muslims! Today is Friday and it is `Eid al-Adha, it is the `Eid of Muslims and mu’mins around the world; both came on these, and what is going to come is peace on humanity and peace on this world, to bring back what has been lost.
May Allah forgive us. Astaghfirullah.
You did not come here, rather Allah sent you here. Anyone who goes for `ibaadah it means Allah sent him, and be happy that Allah sent you for worship, but don’t be happy when you go somewhere that Allah did not send you because it is not a nice place! Al-Masaajidu lillaah, “the mosques are for Allah.” When you go to a masjid you are going to a right place, where you do your `ibaadah.
إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا
Inna-Llaaha wa malaa'ikatahu yusalloona `ala 'n-nabiyy, yaa ayyuha ’Lladheena aamanoo salloo `alayhi wa sallimoo tasleema.
Verily, Allah and His angels send praise on the Prophet. O Believers! Pray upon him and greet him.
(Surat al-Ahzaab, 33:56)
[Du`a.]
The best that you have to thank Allah (swt) day and night for, and we are not thinking about it, and we are not thanking, and those who did not get it, still have to thank Allah (swt), but for us who are the majority, we have to thank Him every moment, shukr, shukr, thank Him for the health that He gave to us! If you cut your finger you feel pain, and you cannot take that pain so you take so many medicines to stop it. And Allah (swt) gave human beings health, there are so many that don’t have it. Go to hospital and look, see the difference between what Allah (swt) gave you and what He gave to them. O Muslims thank Allah!
لَئِن شَكَرْتُمْ لأَزِيدَنَّكُمْ
La-in shakartum la-azeedanakum.
If you thank Me, I will give you more. (Surah Ibrahim, 14:7)
Shukran yaa Allah!
