Qur'an & tafsirFrom the masjid's own video, Mar 14, 2026.
The Quran is a daily way of life
“We have to have a different perspective when we look at the Quran.”
In one sentence
The Quran is Allah’s preserved, miraculous guidance and must be treated as a living way of life through regular recitation, reflection, and practice.
The khutbah in 5 steps
- Presents the Quran as Allah’s word and praises those who learn and teach it.
- Connects attachment to the Quran with the Prophet’s character, Ramadan, spiritual healing, reward, and guidance.
- Explains the Quran’s unique status as the Prophet’s continuing miracle and a source of divine knowledge.
- Urges listeners to use the Quran as a lifestyle rather than reserving it for shelves or special occasions.
- Concludes with supplications, Quranic recitation, and congregational prayer.

Quotes
In the khateeb's words

Talk about it at home
For the dinner table
The khutbah reminded us that the Quran is Allah’s word, guidance, and light for our lives. It is not meant to remain on a shelf or appear only during special occasions; it should shape how we live and treat others. The Prophet’s character was described as reflecting the Quran, showing us that its teachings should become part of our behavior. Reciting and listening to it can bring comfort during hardship and bring lasting reward. Ramadan gives us a chance to renew our family’s relationship with the Quran.
