The khutbah in 5 steps

  1. Invokes taqwa and asks worshippers to use Ramadan for repentance and spiritual renewal.
  2. Describes waning motivation during the middle ten days and urges renewed worship and dua.
  3. Uses Qur'anic passages and Badr to show Allah's nearness and response to sincere supplication.
  4. Connects Ramadan with historical examples of believers seeking peace, safety, and victory through dua.
  5. Closes by urging listeners to bring their needs and dependence directly to Allah, followed by prayers for the ummah.
