Keep Ramadan worship after Eid

ICC

“If you don't know and somebody taught you something, you should be grateful.”

The khateeb, at 7:36

Watch the khutbahFamily kit
In one sentence

Ramadan’s worship should continue beyond Eid, and when believers face ignorance, sin, or defiance, they should learn, repent, restore others’ rights, and remain devoted to Allah.

The khutbah in 6 steps

  1. Celebrates Eid al-Fitr coinciding with Friday and urges gratitude for Ramadan.
  2. Uses Ramadan as spiritual training and urges worshippers to preserve its habits afterward.
  3. Reframes Quran reading as extracting lessons and embodying the Quran through the Prophet’s example.
  4. Explains three human errors through Quranic stories: limited knowledge, sinful disobedience, and defiant rejection of Allah’s command.
  5. Calls for repentance, restoring people’s rights, honoring parents, and continued learning.
  6. Closes by urging ongoing mosque attendance and good deeds, with prayers for Gaza, Muslims, families, and the deceased.

For the dinner table

The khateeb reminded us that Eid and Friday coming together give us two reasons to feel joyful and grateful to Allah. He compared Ramadan to a month of training and encouraged us to keep practicing the worship and goodness we learned. He asked us to read the Quran for lessons we can live by, instead of only counting pages. Through his discussion of the angels, Adam, and Iblis, he encouraged humility when we lack knowledge, repentance when we do wrong, and care against responding with arrogance. He reminded us that seeking forgiveness also means making things right with people, and that we should keep coming to the masjid and doing good after Ramadan.

  1. Which good habit from Ramadan would you like our family to keep, and how could we help you?

  3. When you hurt someone's feelings, what could you do to help make things right?
