A Friday sermon by one of the brothers.

A Friday sermon by one of the brothers.
The first sermon
All praise is due to Allah; we praise Him, seek His help, and seek His forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah from the evils of our own souls and from the badness of our deeds. Whom Allah guides, none can mislead, and whom He leaves to mislead, none can guide. And I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, with no partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger.
، ، .
As for what follows: The best of speech is the speech of Allah the Exalted, and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The worst of matters are their innovations, every innovation is a religious innovation, every religious innovation is misguidance, and every misguidance is in the Fire.
Allah (Mighty and Majestic) says in the clear verses of the revelation: , and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) commands in this verse that all believers cooperate in obedience to Allah and in His pleasure, and He warns them (Mighty and Majestic) against cooperating in fitnah, corruption, and evil. Likewise, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) compared the Muslim community to a well-constructed building, which consists in its entirety of bricks, each brick joined to the next, so that by their coming together, the building becomes solid and strong, a strong and sturdy structure. Thus, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) compared the Muslim community to this. If the Muslim community falls apart, and if each one of them follows his own head, and follows a methodology that the souls desire and what they crave, then their example is like that of sheep with no shepherd, like scattered sheep that the wolf picks off one by one and destroys them. Today, the callers to Islam are called to apply the command of Allah and to obey the command of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) by cooperating in righteousness and piety. They are the most deserving of people to follow the commands of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and they are the most deserving of people to follow the guidance of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
And to our great regret, we see the callers to falsehood in every place; they have gathered on their falsehood, formed alliances among themselves, and united to wage war against Islam and the Muslims. But to our great regret, the callers to Islam today are each as Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) informed us: . And Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) has condemned division and disagreement and criticized it, saying (Mighty and Majestic): . And in the recitation of the two Imams, Hamzah and al-Kisa'i: . So Allah (Mighty and Majestic) counted disagreement in religion as a departure, a departure from religion, and may Allah protect us from that. So you, O dear ones, and O brothers, are called today to straighten your rows and to unite on a just word among you, because you are callers to the methodology of truth, and because you have believed in Allah as Lord, in Islam as religion, and in Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) as Prophet and Messenger. If you are, as you claim, the people of the true methodology, then let your slogan and your covering be that no one of us follows his own desire, and that no one gets angry for himself, and that he prefers unity over division; because unity is mercy, and division is punishment, division is punishment. The Muslim community has suffered greatly from division, and its enemies lie in wait for it, plotting against it morning and evening, pouncing upon it like a cheetah pouncing on its prey. But alas, alas, for the numbing has spread its effect in the body of the Muslim community—and to our great regret—the enemies of Islam today know where the weakness lies. Here they are, numbing the Muslim community, bringing fitnah and corruption into its homes. When they bring the television into its homes and mix men with women and do this and that, all of this is in order to destroy the feeling and the Islamic consciousness in the spirit and body of the Muslim community. Do the callers to Islam today realize the danger surrounding them from every side? Will they wake up from their heedlessness? And will they wake up from their slumber and forget the differences among them? I say, the differences, the differences that arose from desire, from the love of status, and from the love of showing off, which breaks the back. And to our great regret, we see many of our brothers who are on the methodology of truth, and we see them getting angry over the slightest reason, roaring and shouting, and perhaps one of them boycotts his brother out of personal anger, or out of a desire in his soul, or because he did not submit to him in what he wanted him to submit to in the scholarly discussion. If you do not obey him in his opinion and his point of view, he cuts you off and takes you as a bitter enemy. Indeed, a man in this state is not among those whom the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) referred to when he said: . So you are called, O brothers, to straighten the rows, to mobilize the energies, and to roll up the sleeves of earnestness. So reconnect with those you have cut off, do good to those who have wronged you, be loyal to the Muslims and honor them, and do not belittle any of them, and advise them in the best manner, in the most upright manner. If any of the Muslims aggresses against any of you, or insults you, or curses you, let him be patient with that, following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). For the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was done to by the polytheists what they did, but when he entered Mecca as a conqueror, he said: "O people of Mecca, what do you think I will do to you?" They said: "A noble brother and the son of a noble brother." He said: "Go, for you are free." If the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forgave the killers of his uncle and the killers of his family, and the killers of the believers, what is the matter with us, O brothers, that we do not forgive our brothers, nor have mercy on them, nor love them, nor maintain ties with them, and advise them to righteousness and piety?
I say this and I seek forgiveness from Allah for myself and for you.
The second sermon
Praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and the best of prayers and the most complete of salutations are upon the one sent as a mercy to the worlds, and upon his family and his pure and noble Companions. O believing brothers, know that Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) has commanded you with a great command, a command that is necessary for you in your calling, where He said (Mighty and Majestic): . This is a command from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), for by it the Islamic calling stands straight, and by it the Islamic calling continues, and by it there is affection and brotherhood among the Muslims. As for anger for other than Allah, and as for boycotting for other than Allah, that is nothing in Islam. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is the teacher of people in character, whom Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) praised by saying: . Just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught us the true methodology, so (peace and blessings be upon him) taught us good morals. The Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) described the character of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: . The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not say a word but he adhered to it in his behavior and in his life. Therefore, his calling was influential in the hearts of others. But to find the caller today speaking a lot, but his saying contradicts his doing, this scholar and this caller, his advice does not enter the ears. Imagine, O brothers, imagine a man who preaches to people and reminds them and forbids them from smoking cigarettes.
