As-salamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Wa alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Wa alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh May Allah facilitate every good in this world and the next for everyone who is present and those who are absent. Sayyidina I did not ask all the believers, inshallah, please come forward. Please come forward, inshallah. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, As-salamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Find yourself in a crowded space and you will find the mercy of Allah SWT As-salamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Please come forward, inshallah. Please move the ranks forward, inshallah. From the back we are getting signs of the believers. Please move forward, inshallah. So inshallah, we read as it comes twice a year a brief explanation for those that are new and anyone else that is reading a reminder such as myself. So it is different than the Juma'a in that we have the Salat first two Aqa'at similarly Imam will read seven Aqa'at in the first Aqa'at and six in the second Aqa'at After the finishing of the Salat inshallah, now we give the khutbah similar as we give it with the addition of the Aqa'at seven Aqa'at in the first khutbah sitting by the Imam and then the standing and then the six following up in the second khutbah Please feel free to express your joy your love, your happiness through your takbirats of Allah SWT exalting him through this way in which he has asked us to exalt him. This is a beautiful and joyous occasion We thank Allah SWT for facilitating it for us. So we say Allah Akbar but it's seven in addition to that and the same thing we come up from the Qiyam from the second Aqa'at and then six subsequently following that.   Allahu Akbar for the amount of mercy poured out upon us in the month of Ramallah. Allahu Akbar, the number of letters that we read in the Quran. Allahu Akbar, the number of tears shed, seeking Allah's forgiveness in the month of Ramallah. Allahu Akbar for the number of people who praised Harawir, who fed loved ones, guests, and friends. Allahu Akbar for the number of people who fell in love with the Creator in this month of Ramallah. Allahu Akbar, la ila illa Allah wal ila Alhamd. We praise Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala abundantly for the numerous opportunities he provided us to worship him and demonstrate our obedience to him. His commands and his mercy for us in generosity that he pours out on us. We praise Allah. We praise him for the degree of pardon that we receive in this month. And we bear witness that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammad, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, is his prophet and messenger, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, and that he conveyed the message, completed his mission and advised the ummah and left for us an undialed truth Whomsoever strayed from this truth has left clear guidance. Allah gives us many opportunities in this life to pause and examine our lives, our actions, and our relationship with Him. Just like a person traveling who stops to check his vehicle, his time and his direction. Such a person needs his landmarks on the road as indicated to ensure they are traveling in the right direction. Similarly, our spiritual life. We have the five times when we stop each day and pause on our busy schedules to perform a quick check. We have to leave the opportunity of the Friday prayer to perform another check and evaluate. And we have the month of Ramadan that allows us an entire month to examine our system and recharge our spiritual batteries. All of these are opportunities to cleanse our souls and renew our commitment to Allah in preparation for our meeting Him. Allah also gives us a two E's, two fresh sharks to provide us with the enthusiasm and hope. Our sitting here today represents our connection to Allah. Our sitting here today represents our connection to Allah. And we should never leave here. We should not leave here today except over the complete conviction of complete belief, of complete belief that every day represents an opportunity for us to be brought near to Allah SWT. The Prophet SAW has said in the hadith that every young day tells us, O children of Adam, Ya Bani Adam, Ya Bani Adam, I am a new day and will testify about you on Yolul Qiyamah. So make the best of me. So make the best of me. Allah has brought us here to make us the best of ourselves on this day, regardless of anything else that people want to tell you or that you may be feeling, you must know in your hearts that Allah SWT brought you here for you to make the best of this day. Not just any day, but this special day. Today is the day we celebrate Allah's mercy and forgiveness, Allahul Ekbun. E is this opportunity for us to reevaluate our course and reorient ourselves, but the beauty of E is not limited to this day. The beauty of E is not limited to this day. A wise man once said, today is E, tomorrow is E, and every day that passes without disobeying Allah is E. What does that mean? It means that the pleasure of Allah SWT is something that should be sought constantly and it should be a constant cause of celebration in our lives. Allah will ekbun. Allah SWT reminds us in this heavy Qudsi, O son of Adam, so long as you call upon me, I shall forgive you of what you have done, without your value, and I shall not mind. It is of no concern to me. O son of Adam, will your sins to reach the clouds of the sky, will you then to ask forgiveness of me? O son of Adam, will you to come with me with sins dealing as great as the earth, to face me, ascribing no proper to me, I will bring you forgiveness nearly as great as it. Ramadan is this month of forgiveness. Allah has dedicated this month to forgive us. Allah has dedicated this month, 29 or 30 days for our forgiveness. For us to bring Taqwa into our lives so that we may draw closer to Him so that our families may draw closer to Him because it is all a preparation for our meeting with Him. This is why we celebrate and this is why we cry out, Allah Hu Akbar. This Eve represents opportunities to start anew with a recommitment to sincerity and expression of love for the one who pours out his love on us. It is this recommitment to obedience that propels us into the coming days to have complete conviction and trust in our Lord with contentment to His Name. May Allah preserve that and give us peace and safety. Allah Hu Akbar. Allah Hu Akbar. Allah Hu Akbar. Allah Hu Akbar. Allah Hu Akbar. Allah Hu Akbar. Allah Hu Akbar. Allah Hu Akbar. All praise be to the one who carries him and gives his mercy and mercy and comes to Allah Allahumma salli wa sallam wa barik ala Sayyidina Muhammad al awwalin Allahumma salli wa sallam wa barik ala sayyidina Muhammad al awwalin You are. And I remind you of the place in which the prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him and his family, and the Sahih of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, and his family, and his family. Allah is the greatest. Allah is the greatest. Allah is the greatest. We will reflect on the history that all are going through a process of constant change. This is a course destined for us by Allah and nothing can change that. Tell me, if an honorable guest visits us, showers us with all sorts of goodness and love, and we reciprocate, and when the times that departure that guest arrives, how are we going to be farewell, and how are we going to feel? What separation that is greater and more emotional than that of our beloved guest, the blessed month of Ramallah? Our madame is the month of mercy, forgiveness, righteousness, generosity, the month of federation from Allah's anger. Yesterday we were congratulating each other on the arrival of the month. Today we are consoling each other for his departure and begging Allah to accept our acts of worship. In this noble month, many of us have done good deeds. May Allah SWT accept all of them. Our actions are going to testify for us on the Day of Judgment. We did not know this month of Ramallah, so therefore the fortunate Muslim during this month was the one who was able to improve their acts of worship with sincerity and self-examination and end it with sincere repentance, may Allah accept. For actions are judged by their ends. Truly the wise amongst us exerts maximum effort in perfecting their acts of worship and whose concern is regarding the acceptance or rejections of the actions. Aleyman-e-tawleh, r.a. Karam-e-Mu'ma, what do you say? Have you a great, have a great concern for the acceptance of your deeds that you have to the amount of deeds that you have performed? Our life is a journey of change. Our life is a journey of change. Nothing in this life is permanent. Rather, every situation is temporary and simply transforms into another. These constant series are the reminders of the temporary nature of this life. That everything in this dunya, by its very nature, is meant to change. Every ease and hardship that we face does not last forever. And it wasn't how Allah says, And that these days of varying conditions, we alternate them amongst people. So Hamdullah, to have fasted this month of Ramadan, is to experience those varying conditions mentioned in the verse. And this experience of change is then realized in each of our experiences that bring these varying conditions into our lives. We are just completing the time in our lives that brings spiritual energy and when our acts of worship practice throughout the year take on a whole new meaning. Pursue with a greater sense of urgency. Laying the cover as a public place to unsend is a time for us to exert ourselves seeking a spiritual breakthrough. It is similar to the entire month of Ramadan and will become pro-activated creating these conditions. We pray that Allah says that Allah makes this month and that night a mean transformation in all of our lives. Allah has created a time for us when we are able to place a barrier between ourselves and our desires of this world. The importance of this is that by not constantly absorbing sustenance from our surroundings, we are forced to realize that we have less dependence upon our food and drink. This is a mercy from Allah and this should make us realize the amount of thanks and forgiveness that we show to Allah, through our constant provisions. We also realize that we should use this to devote ourselves more fully to the one who provides this source than to sustenance itself. Ramadan undoubtedly becomes a time when our spiritual lives take on whole new meanings, the Quran deals new meanings, new secrets and new treasures for all, and we thank Allah, Subhanahu wa ta'ala for his continued blessings beyond the month of Ramadan. As believers, this month's teaching us that we should be like a firm tree. We should hold firm and send our roots deeper to the soil so that we can stand tall. We must constantly seek to water our hearts with what is pure in order to strengthen our roots and our soul.  As we aim to conceal these qualities within ourselves, the constant changes we experience in our lives cease to become a distress and hardship, rather they will become a source of strength that brings us closer to Allah and to Allah. In closing, Ramadan purifies our souls and whole communities of misdeeds and misunderstandings of the previous year. And it is the powerful energy of the source from Allah, Subhanahu wa ta'ala that Allah allows us to experience reform and become new people so that when the month is over, the festival begins and the believer can face the future with new determination and strength, repentant from our former bad habits committed to never return to them. This way, all of us, and by extension our communities, purify itself during this last month which becomes the turning point of the year and for many of us is the turning point of our lives. We ask Allah, Subhanahu wa ta'ala to accept us in this month. We ask Allah, Subhanahu wa ta'ala to give us life to see another month of Ramadan. Allahumma, Alhamdulillahi min-al-Mu'min. Muslim and Muslim. Allahumma, Alhamdulillahi min-al-Mu'min. Muslim and Muslim. Allahumma, Alhamdulillahi min-al-Mu'min. Muslim and Muslim. Allahumma, Alhamdulillahi min-al-Mu'min. Muslim and Muslim. Allahumma, Alhamdulillahi min-al-Mu'min. Most gracious, most merciful, we turn to you in prayer to express our thanks for this last day that you have the soul upon us and blessing of this great day. Allah we call on you, the Creator of all mankind, from our ego, greed, lust, and hatred, replaceable humility, contempt, compassion, and love. We humbly place ourselves at your mercy, forgive us for our sins, and protect us from all forms of evil, O Allah, bless our parents who are facing a claim on our tongues and helping us to express it in our deeds.  Allah will return to you at all times, O Allah. O Allah, for anyone who is facing a difficulty, ask you to remove that difficulty from that time. We pray for the souls who have departed this world. Grant us the strength and faith to trans the months ahead with a revitalized patience and sacrifice. Names of blessings of this great day abide with us and serve as a source of comfort during the moments of suffering and despair throughout the year. We have entered your call to draw closer to you. We must seek you. O Allah, answer the call we made to be in this blessed morning. Allahumma, a'ameen, a'ameen, a'ameen. Wa raqit da'arana, an'alhamdulillahi rabbil-da'arameen. Wa qul'am, wa hamdulillahi. As-salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.
