A word by the Shaykh regarding the blessing of Islam.
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : And I pray and send peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions.
As for what follows, O brothers, we praise Allah (Mighty and Majestic) for having bestowed upon this land two great blessings, which are rarely found in any land. The first blessing is the blessing of Islam, to which Allah, praise be to Him, guided the Muslims, while He led many of His creation astray from it. There is no blessing that equals the blessing of Islam. Allah (Mighty and Majestic) said:[Al-Ma'idah 5:3].
Thus, Allah clarified in this noble verse that Islam, which He has chosen for us, is among His blessings that He has completed for us (Mighty and Majestic).
Therefore, we must thank Allah for this great blessing by fulfilling what is obligatory upon us regarding the rights of Islam.
