Good deeds prepare us for Allah’s judgment

PGMA · Gulfraz Khan

“A day is coming where Allah is the ultimate judge.”

The khateeb, at 9:31

Watch the khutbah
In one sentence

Because life is a temporary journey back to Allah, believers should cultivate taqwa through sincere, Sunnah-guided good deeds and continually monitor their souls.

The khutbah in 6 steps

  1. Introduces taqwa, faith, and the need to pair belief with good actions.
  2. Uses the Day of Judgment to emphasize accountability, sincerity, and avoiding showing off.
  3. Explains the body as a temporary trust while the soul continues its journey back to Allah.
  4. Contrasts worldly wealth and children with enduring righteous deeds.
  5. Lists prayer, remembrance, supplication, kindness, patience, restraint, and gratitude as heart-strengthening deeds.
  6. Urges spiritual self-monitoring and renewed connection with the Quran, Sunnah, mosque, and remembrance.
