For the dinner table

The khutbah asks us to remember why Allah gave us life: to worship Him and prepare for the hereafter. Worship is not only prayer; honest work, caring for family, and helping people can also be worship when our intention and conduct are right. Our time, health, youth, money, and knowledge are gifts we will be asked about. Because life passes quickly, we should use our time to learn, do good, and respond wisely when we see injustice. The practical invitation is to make sincere tawbah today and begin living with purpose.

  1. What is one everyday responsibility you can do with a good intention this week?
  2. If time is precious, what is one screen-time habit you would change?
  3. How can our family respond wisely when we see something unfair?
