For the dinner table

The khateeb connected the beginning of the Hijri year with the Hijrah of the Prophet Muhammad. He compared Hijrah with Hajj, explaining that both require leaving comfort, moving forward, and preparing beforehand. He reminded us that Allah supported the Prophet in the cave and that believers should trust Allah during difficulty. Supporting faith and worship does not benefit Allah, who needs nothing; it benefits us by strengthening our iman, taqwa, and certainty. The khutbah ended with prayers for faith, healing, forgiveness, guidance, and closeness to Allah.
