In one sentence

As the Islamic year moves from 1447 to 1448, Muslims should recognize Islam as a perfected, complete way of life and affirm its continuity with earlier prophetic teachings.

The khutbah in 4 steps

  1. Affirms the testimony of faith and sends blessings upon Prophet Muhammad.
  2. Marks the approaching end of 1447 and beginning of 1448.
  3. Cites the Quranic declaration that Islam has been perfected as a complete way of life.
  4. Explains that Muslims must also believe in the teachings given to Isa and Musa.

For the dinner table

The khateeb reminded us that the Islamic year 1447 is ending and 1448 is approaching. He connected this transition with the Quranic teaching that Islam is a complete and perfected way of life. He also explained that Muslims believe not only in Prophet Muhammad, but in the teachings given to earlier prophets such as Isa and Musa. As a family, we can use this moment to renew our faith and remember the shared message of the prophets.
