🕌 Jummah Khutbah Masjid Fatimah Islamic Center
Khatib: Imam Hakeem Abdur Rahman
Friday, January 9, 2026 | 20 Rajab 1447
Theme: Strong Faith in Difficult Times

🟫 FIRST KHUTBAH
Dear brothers and sisters,
Every generation faces challenges.
Some face war, some face illness, some face confusion, and some face fear about the future.
Today, many people feel:
Worried
Tired
Overwhelmed
Spiritually weak
Islam does not ignore these feelings.
Islam teaches us how to stay strong when life feels heavy.
PART 1 — ALLAH IS ALWAYS NEAR
When life becomes difficult, the first reminder is simple:
Allah is close.
Allah says:
“I am near. I respond to the call of the one who calls upon Me.” — Surah Al-Baqarah 2:186
You are never alone.
Even when people fail you, Allah never does.
Faith is not about having no problems.
Faith is about knowing who to turn to when problems come.

PART 2 — HARD TIMES ARE NOT A SIGN OF FAILURE
Many people think:
“If Allah loves me, life should be easy.”
But the Prophet ﷺ faced:
Hunger
Rejection
Loss
Pain
He ﷺ said:
“The people most tested are the prophets, then the righteous.”
— Tirmidhi
Hardship is not punishment for every believer.
Often, it is a way Allah raises us, cleans us, and brings us closer.

PART 3 — THREE THINGS THAT STRENGTHEN FAITH
🌿 1. Prayer, Even When It Feels Hard
Salah is not only for good days.
It is especially for difficult days.
Allah says:
“Seek help through patience and prayer.”
— Surah Al-Baqarah 2:45






🌿 2. Patience with Hope
Patience does not mean silence or giving up.
It means trusting Allah while doing your best.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“How amazing is the affair of the believer… even hardship is good for him.”
— Muslim

🌿 3. Remembering Allah Often
A worried heart becomes calm with dhikr.
Allah says:
“Truly, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find peace.”
— Surah Ar-Ra‘d 13:28
Even simple words: SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar

PART 4 — BE A SOURCE OF STRENGTH FOR OTHERS
Dear brothers and sisters,
When the world feels heavy, be the light for someone else.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“The most beloved people to Allah are those who benefit others.”— Tabarani
Smile
Help
Listen
Support
Sometimes helping others heals our own hearts.
🟫 SECOND KHUTBAH
Trust Allah About the Future
Many people fear the future:
Finances
Children
Health
World events
Allah says:
“And whoever puts his trust in Allah — He is enough for him.”— Surah At-Talaq 65:3
Do your part.
Make du‘a.
Then trust Allah.
Message to Families and Youth


Parents:
Teach children faith through example
Show calmness, not panic
Youth:
Stay connected to Allah
Do not measure success by the world alone

Faith gives stability when everything else shakes.
Dear believers,
Strong faith does not mean a problem-free life.
It means a heart connected to Allah in every situation.
May Allah make us among those whose faith grows stronger in hardship.
📿 DU‘A

🕌 Jummah Khutbah: Khatib Imam Abdur Rahman
Friday, January 2, 2026 | 13 Rajab 1447 Masjid Fatimah, Hope Center Inc., Detroit
The Blessed Month of Rajab – A Sacred Opportunity**

**أَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ الزَّمَانَ مَوَاقِيتَ لِعِبَادِهِ، وَفَضَّلَ بَعْضَهُ عَلَى بَعْضٍ بِرَحْمَتِهِ. أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ سَيِّدَنَا مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ. اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَأَصْحَابِهِ أَجْمَعِينَ.**
**أَمَّا بَعْدُ:**
Dear brothers and sisters,
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh.

We have entered the month of Rajab, one of the four sacred months in Islam. Allah says in the Quran:

**إِنَّ عِدَّةَ الشُّهُورِ عِندَ اللَّهِ اثْنَا عَشَرَ شَهْرًا فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ مِنْهَا أَرْبَعَةٌ حُرُمٌ**

*“Indeed, the number of months with Allah is twelve months in the register of Allah, from the day He created the heavens and the earth; of these, four are sacred.”* (Surah At-Tawbah, 9:36)

Rajab is a special time. It is called **“Rajab al-Asabb”** — the month that pours out Allah’s mercy. It is the month of planting seeds — seeds of good deeds, repentance, and spiritual preparation.

Why is Rajab important?
It’s like a “spiritual training camp” before Ramadan. Just as an athlete prepares before a big race, Rajab invites us to warm up our hearts, increase our worship, and cleanse our intentions before we reach the blessed month of Ramadan.

So, let’s use this month wisely. Start small, but start today:
– Increase **dhikr** (remembrance of Allah).
– Give extra **sadaqah** (charity), even if it’s a smile.
– Guard our tongues from gossip and harsh words.
– Pray our sunnah prayers more regularly.- Ask for forgiveness every day — **“Astaghfirullah”** — from the heart


2) Brothers and sisters,
Rajab is also a time to reflect on our relationships — with Allah, with ourselves, and with others.

The Prophet ﷺ said:
**“Rajab is the month of Allah, Sha‘ban is my month, and Ramadan is the month of my ummah.”**
This shows us a beautiful progression. Rajab is a chance to reconnect with our Creator sincerely, before focusing on following the Sunnah more closely in Sha‘ban, and then receiving the mercy of Ramadan together.

Let’s also remember that in the sacred months, good deeds are multiplied, but so is the weight of wrong actions. So let’s be extra careful:
– Be kind to your family.
– Check on your neighbors.
– Forgive those who hurt you.
– Let go of grudges — they weigh down the heart.
– Be honest in your work and dealings.

Think of Rajab as a “mercy gift” from Allah. Don’t let it pass by unnoticed. Open your heart, renew your faith, and set small, achievable goals. Maybe read a page of Quran a day, or pray Fajr on time, or simply thank Allah more often.

**اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي رَجَبَ وَشَعْبَانَ وَبَلِّغْنَا رَمَضَانَ**

*“O Allah, bless us in Rajab and Sha‘ban, and let us reach Ramadan.”*

Let’s make this du’a together, and live it with action.
**أَقُولُ قَوْلِي هَذَا وَأَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ لِي وَلَكُمْ وَلِسَائِرِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، فَاسْتَغْفِرُوهُ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ.**
**وَصَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلَّمَ.**
**وَآخِرُ دَعْوَانَا أَنِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ.**

NEW YEAR REFLECTIONS:
Hakeem Abdur Rahman
Friday, December 26, 2025 | 6 Rajab 1447
Theme: New Year Reflections — A Muslim Way Forward

🟫 FIRST KHUTBAH
Opening Praise
All praise is for Allah, the Lord of time, the Creator of days and nights.
We praise Him, seek His help, and ask His forgiveness.
We seek refuge in Allah from the evil of our souls and our wrong actions.
We send peace and blessings upon our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

Introduction
Dear brothers and sisters,
We are approaching the end of the calendar year. Around us, many people are preparing for New Year celebrations — parties, countdowns, fireworks, and loud gatherings.
As Muslims living in this society, a common question arises:
👉 How should Muslims view the New Year?
👉 Do we celebrate it?
👉 What is the correct Islamic attitude?
Islam gives us a balanced, wise, and calm answer.


PART 1 — TIME IS A GREAT BLESSING
Allah reminds us that time itself is a sign of Him.
Allah says:
“By time, indeed mankind is in loss.”
— Surah Al-‘Asr 103:1–2
Every day that passes is a piece of our life that will never return.
A new year is not just a celebration — it is a reminder.
A reminder that:
We are getting older
Our deeds are being written
Our meeting with Allah is getting closer
For a believer, this creates reflection, not carelessness.

PART 2 — ISLAM DOES NOT CELEBRATE NEW YEAR AS A RELIGIOUS EVENT
Islam has its own calendar — the Hijri calendar — based on meaningful events like the Hijrah of the Prophet ﷺ.
Islam has two Eids, and they are enough for us.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“Allah has replaced them for you with two better days: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha.”
— Abu Dawood
So as Muslims:
We do not celebrate New Year as a religious festival
We do not copy religious or sinful customs
We do not feel pressured to imitate others
This is not anger or rejection — it is clarity of faith.

PART 3 — A MUSLIM WAY TO WELCOME A NEW YEAR
Brothers and sisters, Islam does not teach us to ignore the passing of time.
Instead, Islam teaches us to use moments like this wisely.
🌿 1. Reflection, not partying
Ask yourself:
Did I grow closer to Allah this year?
Did my character improve?
Did I pray better?
Did I treat people better?
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“The intelligent person is the one who holds himself accountable.”
— Tirmidhi

🌿 2. Repentance, not regret
Allah loves when we return to Him.
Allah says:
“O My servants, do not lose hope in the mercy of Allah.”
— Surah Az-Zumar 39:53
A new year is a chance to say:
“Ya Allah, forgive me.”
“Ya Allah, help me change.”

🌿 3. Intention, not empty resolutions
Many people make New Year resolutions — and forget them in weeks.
Islam teaches niyyah (intention) with action.
Make simple goals, such as:
Praying on time
Reading Qur’an regularly
Controlling anger
Being kind to family
Staying away from bad habits
Small steps, done sincerely, are beloved to Allah.

PART 4 — AVOIDING HARAM WHILE BEING RESPECTFUL
New Year celebrations often include:
Alcohol
Music and immorality
Mixed gatherings
Neglect of prayer
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should stay away from harm.”
— Bukhari
Muslims should:
❌ Avoid sinful gatherings
❌ Avoid countdown parties
❌ Avoid peer pressure
But at the same time:
✅ Be polite
✅ Be respectful
✅ Be calm
✅ Be confident in Islam
Good manners are part of faith.

🟫 SECOND KHUTBAH
Living with Purpose in the Coming Year
Dear brothers and sisters,
A new year will come — whether we celebrate it or not.
The question is: Will we come closer to Allah, or farther away?
Allah says:
“So race toward forgiveness from your Lord.”
— Surah Al-Hadid 57:21
Let the coming year be:
A year of stronger prayer
A year of cleaner hearts
A year of better character
A year of mercy and patience

A Message for Parents and Youth
Parents: teach your children Islamic identity with love, not fear.
Youth: be proud of Islam — you do not need to copy others to belong.
Islam gives dignity, balance, and peace.

📿 DU‘A
O Allah, allow us to reach the coming year with faith and health.
O Allah, forgive our past mistakes and guide us in the future.
O Allah, help us use our time wisely and avoid what displeases You.
O Allah, protect our families and children from harmful influences.
O Allah, make the coming year better than the last.
O Allah, grant peace to the world and guide humanity to what is right.
Ameen.

🕌 Conclusion
Dear brothers and sisters,
For a Muslim, every new day is a new beginning.
We welcome time with gratitude, reflection, and obedience to Allah — not with carelessness.
May Allah make us among those who use time wisely.
Wa aqimis-salah.

✨ A short khutbah summary for youth
Just tell me — I’ll prepare it beautifully for you 🤍

Dear brothers and sisters,
We live in a diverse society. In the coming days, many around us will celebrate Christmas. As Muslims, we often ask:
🟩 What is our position? 🟩 How should we behave?


🟩 How do we protect our faith while living peacefully with others?


Islam gives us clear guidance, balanced with respect, wisdom, and kindness.

PART 1 — OUR FAITH MUST BE CLEAR
Islam teaches us to respect others, but also to protect our belief.
Allah says: لَكُمْ دِينُكُمْ وَلِيَ دِينِ
“For you is your religion, and for me is my religion.”
— Surah Al-Kafirun 109:6
Christmas is a religious celebration based on beliefs Islam does not share, especially beliefs about Jesus (Isa عليه السلام).
Islam teaches clearly: إِنَّمَا ٱلْمَسِيحُ عِيسَى ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ رَسُولُ ٱللَّهِ وَكَلِمَتُهُۥٓ
“Jesus, son of Mary, was a Messenger of Allah.”
— Surah An-Nisa 4:171
As Muslims:
🟩We love and respect Prophet Isa (Jesus) 🟩We do not believe he is divine
🟩We do not celebrate religious festivals outside Islam

Keeping our faith clear is not hatred — it is honesty.

PART 2 — RESPECT WITHOUT IMITATION
Islam teaches respectful coexistence, not imitation.
Allah says:لَّا يَنْهَىٰكُمُ ٱللَّهُ عَنِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يُقَـٰتِلُوكُمْ فِى ٱلدِّينِ وَلَمْ يُخْرِجُوكُم مِّن دِيَـٰرِكُمْ أَن تَبَرُّوهُمْ وَتُقْسِطُوٓا۟ إِلَيْهِمْ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُقْسِطِينَ
“Allah does not forbid you from being kind and just to those who do not fight you because of religion.”
— Surah Al-Mumtahanah 60:8
This means:
🟩We are polite 🟩We are kind 🟩We are respectful neighbors and coworkers


But the Prophet ﷺ said: مَنْ تَشَبَّهَ بِقَوْمٍ, فَهُوَ مِنْهُمْ
“Whoever imitates a people becomes one of them.”
— Abu Dawood
So Muslims should:
❌ Not participate in religious rituals


❌ Not say religious greetings that contradict Islamic belief


❌ Not decorate homes with religious symbols


At the same time:
✅ We may respond politely ✅ We may show good character


✅ We may maintain family ties ✅ We may show kindness & goodwill


This balance is Islam.


PART 3 — SHOWING ISLAM THROUGH GOOD CHARACTER
The best way to represent Islam during Christmas season is good character.
The Prophet ﷺ said: إِنَّمَا بُعِثْتُ لِأُتَمِّمَ صَالِحَ الْأَخْلَاقِ
“I was sent to perfect good character.”
— Ahmad
This means:
🟩Be honest at work 🟩Be respectful in conversation


🟩Be helpful to neighbors 🟩Be patient and calm 🟩Avoid arguments


Many people judge Islam not by books — but by Muslims they meet.

PART 4 — TEACHING OUR CHILDREN
Brothers and sisters, this time of year is especially important for our children.
We must:
✅Teach them Islamic identity ✅Explain why we do not celebrate Christmas


✅Teach them about Eid as our celebration ✅Teach them to be respectful, not confused


The Prophet ﷺ said: أَلاَ كُلُّكُمْ رَاعٍ وَكُلُّكُمْ
“Each of you is a shepherd, and each of you is responsible for your flock.”
— Bukhari & Muslim
Protecting faith starts at home.

SECOND KHUTBAH
Islam does not need to borrow celebrations from others.
Islam has its own beauty, balance, and completeness.
Allah says: وَرَضِيۡتُ لَـكُمُ الۡاِسۡلَامَ دِيۡنًا​
“Today I have perfected your religion for you.”— Surah Al-Ma’idah 5:3
Dear brothers and sisters,
This season presents us with an opportunity—not to withdraw or criticize, but to embody the beauty of Islam through our conduct. Here are practical ways to fulfill our duties:
Be a Good Neighbor: You can give permissible gifts like food or gifts during this time as a gesture of goodwill, without it being a "Christmas gift." The Prophet ﷺ said: "Exchange gifts, as that will lead to increasing your love for one another." (Bukhari) This applies to all human relationships.
Use It as Dawah Opportunity: When asked about our position, we can explain with wisdom and beautiful preaching: "As Muslims, we love and respect Prophet Jesus as one of Allah's great messengers, but our belief about his nature is different. We celebrate his teachings of love, peace, and devotion to God."
Strengthen Your Own Faith: Use this time to increase in learning about Prophet Jesus (Isa) peace be upon him from Islamic sources. Read Surah Maryam together as a family. Renew your commitment to your own Islamic practices.
Avoid Judgment and Rudeness: There is no need to announce "We don't celebrate Christmas!" unprompted. If invited to religious events, politely decline with a simple, "Thank you for the invitation, but I won't be able to attend. I appreciate your kindness."
Remember, Allah commands us: ٱدْعُ إِلَىٰ سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِٱلْحِكْمَةِ وَٱلْمَوْعِظَةِ ٱلْحَسَنَةِ ۖ
"Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction, and argue with them in a way that is best."
(Surah An-Nahl, 16:125)
Let us make du'a for our non-Muslim neighbors—that Allah guides them to the truth. Let us make du'a for ourselves—that Allah keeps our faith firm and our hearts wise.

A clean heart is more valuable than wealth, status, or possessions.
On the Day of Judgment, only a clean heart will save us.

Allah says:

“The Day when neither wealth nor children will benefit, except the one who comes to Allah with a pure heart.”
— Surah Ash-Shu‘ara 26:88–89

A pure heart is a successful heart.

🌿 PART 1 — What Is a “Clean Heart”?

A clean heart in Islam means:

Free from jealousy

Free from hatred

Free from arrogance

Free from showing off

Free from grudges

Full of love for Allah

Full of mercy for people

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“Truly Allah does not look at your appearance or wealth, but He looks at your hearts and your deeds.”
— Muslim

Allah judges hearts before actions.

🌿 PART 2 — Why Do Hearts Become Hard or Dirty?

Our hearts become heavy because:

We see too much negativity

We compare ourselves to others

We hold anger inside

We carry old wounds

We spend too much time online

We forget to remember Allah

We attach ourselves too strongly to the dunya

Just like dust builds up on a mirror, sins and distractions build up on our hearts.

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“When a servant commits a sin, a black spot appears on the heart…”
— Tirmidhi

But Allah also gives us a way to polish the heart.

🌿 PART 3 — How Islam Cleans the Heart
1. Dhikr (Remembering Allah)

Allah says:

“Remember Me, and I will remember you.”
— Surah Al-Baqarah 2:152

Dhikr softens the heart like rain softens dry land.

2. Qur’an

The Qur’an is spiritual medicine.

“O mankind, a healing has come to you from your Lord.”
— Surah Yunus 10:57

Even a few verses daily bring light.

3. Forgiveness

Forgiving others cleans your heart faster than anything else.

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“Show mercy, and Allah will show mercy to you.”
— Tirmidhi

Holding grudges hurts us more than the other person.

4. Saying “Astaghfirullah”

Astaghfirullah washes away spiritual dirt.

“Seek forgiveness… Allah will give you strength.”
— Surah Hud 11:52

5. Charity

Giving secretly purifies the soul.

“Take from their wealth charity to purify them.”
— Surah At-Tawbah 9:103

🌿 PART 4 — The Messenger ﷺ Was the Purest Heart

Allah described the Prophet ﷺ:

“Indeed, you are of the highest character.”
— Surah Al-Qalam 68:4

He forgave the people who hurt him.
He smiled even when he was tired.
He prayed even when he was in pain.
He never insulted or cursed anyone.

A heart that is clean brings blessings to everyone around it.

🌿 PART 5 — Practical Steps for This Week

Here are simple actions to improve the heart before next Friday:

1. Say “SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, Allahu Akbar” 33 times after each prayer.

This brings calmness and removes stress.

2. Forgive one person in your heart.

Even if they don’t know.

3. Give a small charity — even $1.

Allah grows small charity into mountains.

4. Read one page of Qur’an daily.

Even one page will soften the heart.

**5. Make du‘a every night:

“Ya Allah, clean my heart from anything that displeases You.”**

Allah loves this du‘a.

🟫 SECOND KHUTBAH

Alhamdulillāh.
My dear brothers and sisters,

A clean heart brings:

Happiness at home

Peace in marriage

Strength in parenting

Patience in hardship

Hope in sadness

Kindness in community

Love among Muslims

A clean heart makes you closer to Allah and more beloved to people.

The Prophet ﷺ told us of a man guaranteed Jannah.
When asked why, he said:

“I do not sleep with any hatred in my heart for any Muslim.”
— Ahmad

This is the key to paradise:
A peaceful heart.

📿 DU‘A

O Allah, clean our hearts from envy, anger, and arrogance.
O Allah, fill our hearts with light, mercy, and sincerity.
O Allah, make the Qur’an the spring of our hearts.
O Allah, protect our families and guide our children.
O Allah, bring peace to the world — especially to the oppressed and suffering.
O Allah, make us among those who meet You with a pure heart.

Ameen.

Jummah Khutbah for Friday, December 5, 2025
14 Jumada Al-Akhirah 1447
Theme: “Strengthening the Heart in Times of Change: Returning to Allah Through Patience, Prayer, and Inner Peace”

My dear respected brothers and sisters, we live in a world changing faster than ever.
News cycles move quickly, society shifts daily, technology changes how we think and live.
In such times, the heart can become exhausted, distracted, and unsettled.
But Allah has given us a powerful anchor:
A heart connected to Him.
Allah says:
اَلَّذِيۡنَ اٰمَنُوۡا وَتَطۡمَـئِنُّ قُلُوۡبُهُمۡ بِذِكۡرِ اللّٰهِ​ ؕ اَلَا بِذِكۡرِ اللّٰهِ تَطۡمَـئِنُّ الۡقُلُوۡبُؕ
“Truly, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find peace.”
— Surah Ar-Ra’d 13:28
Today’s khutbah is about strengthening the heart in times of change.

🌟 PART 1 — The Heart Needs Nourishment Like the Body
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“In the body there is a piece of flesh; if it is sound, the whole body is sound. If it is corrupt, the whole body is corrupt. Indeed, it is the heart.”
— Bukhari & Muslim



Just as we feed the body with food, we must feed the heart with:
Qur’an *Dhikr *Prayer *Patience


*Good company *Trust in Allah


Without spiritual nourishment, the heart becomes:
Weak *Anxious *Attached to dunya


Easily influenced *Emotionally drained

Strengthening the heart is daily maintenance, not a one-time effort.

🌟 P 2 — Patience: The First Cure for the Unsettled Heart
Allah mentions sabr (patience) more than 90 times in the Qur’an.
He says:يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱسْتَعِينُوا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ وَٱلصَّلَوٰةِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ
“O believers, seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, Allah is with the patient.”
— Surah Al-Baqarah 2:153
Patience is not passive.
It is powerful.
It means:
Staying calm during tests * Trusting Allah’s timing


Acting with wisdom * Holding back anger


Continuing good deeds even when life is hard


The Prophet ﷺ taught:
“Patience is at the first strike of calamity.”
— Bukhari
Meaning: How we react immediately reveals the heart’s strength.

🌟 P 3 — Salah: The Heart’s Safe Refuge
When the Prophet ﷺ faced stress, fear, or burden, he would say:
“O Bilal, bring us comfort through prayer.”
— Abu Dawood
Salah was his refuge.
His joy.
His place of peace.
In today’s world, people look for comfort in:
Phones *Entertainment *Shopping


Escaping reality *Social media

But true peace comes only from the One who created the heart.
If you strengthen your Salah, Allah will strengthen your heart.

🌟 P 4 — Inner Peace Through Trust in Allah (Tawakkul)
Allah says: وَمَن يَتَوَكَّلۡ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسۡبُهُ
“And whoever puts their trust in Allah, He is sufficient for them.” (Quran 65:3)
Tawakkul does not mean sitting still. It means:
Doing your best *And trusting Allah with the results
Worries decrease, stress fades, and the heart becomes calm.

The Prophet ﷺ said:
“If you place your trust in Allah as you should, He will provide for you like He provides for the birds: they leave hungry in the morning and return full in the evening.”
— Tirmidhi
Do your part — leave the outcome to Allah.

🌟 P 5 —Practical Ways to Strengthen the Heart This Week
Read 10 minutes of Qur’an daily
Even one page brings light.


Increase “Astaghfirullah”
It removes sadness and brings relief.


Make du‘a for a peaceful heart
Allah answers broken hearts first.


Limit negative media
What you consume affects your soul.


Pray at least 1 prayer slowly
Quality over speed.


Give small charity
It opens the heart and removes hardship.


Forgive someone
Forgiveness cleanses the heart.
