For the dinner table

The khutbah reminds us that Allah is completely unique and the only One worthy of worship. He is self-sufficient, knows everything, and is perfectly wise, so we should turn to Him in every situation. Friday prayer has special rewards, especially for those who arrive early, listen carefully, and worship with humility. Our rank with Allah grows through righteous deeds, repentance, good character, and sincere supplication.
