For the dinner table

Ramadan is ending, but our journey toward Allah is only beginning. We should not live only in memories of good Ramadan nights; we should keep moving forward with steady worship, even when our deeds are small. The khutbah reminds us to ask Allah to accept what we did, just as Ibrahim asked for acceptance while building the Ka'bah. Because we do not know how long we will live, we should finish Ramadan strongly and carry its spirit into the rest of our lives.
