In one sentence

Muslims must uphold justice and communal responsibility in every circumstance, including using their civic voice to vote for the welfare of society while relying on Allah.

The khutbah in 6 steps

  1. Gratitude for faith, safety, health, and the ability to gather for Jumu'ah
  2. The Hijrah, persecution in Mecca, establishment in Medina, and the Prophet's merciful return
  3. Migration to Abyssinia and the example of al-Najashi's just rule
  4. Justice, accountable leadership, and the responsibility of rulers and scholars
  5. Civic responsibility, voting, researching candidates, and serving the whole community
  6. Early voting instructions, reliance on Allah, schedule updates, and closing prayers
