• Eid Greetings In Arabic
• Khutbah Tahajjud In Arabic

Why celebrate Eid ul Fitr? Is Eid a sign of happiness that Ramadhan has finished? Quite the opposite! It is a celebration of thanks to. Eid al-Fitr (Holiday of the Feast) Khutbah. We collectively break our fast on this day of Eid [Arabic]. 2016 American Islamic Forum for Democracy. Dec 20, 2009. Imam Hafiz Qasim delivering Eid-ul-Adha Khutba in Arabic at Leeds Makkah Masjid. 2019 Imam Hafiz Qasim Eid Adha Arabic Khutba 2018.

Sermon given by Yaser Ali At the Islamic Center of the Northeast Valley (ICNEV) Scottsdale, Arizona.Arabic. That he guided you on the guidance of his “rahmah” (mercy) on the month of Ramadan. And that you may be thankful.

That you may be grateful for his bounties upon us. Allah (SWT: Glorified and Exalted One) has given us so much in this month of Ramadan. This is the day that is known as Arabic: the day of prize giving. Because in the month of Ramadan, you planted the seeds of goodness. You planted the seeds by fasting in the long hot days of the Arizona summer.

You stood in Qiyam, in Taraweeh, you recited Qur’an. You made du’aa (supplication). You paid zakat. You gave charity.

You were good to those around you. We avoided that which was haram (sinful). So for that, Allah SWT promises the reward today. Allah SWT promises us an abundance of reward. That’s why they say. Arabic That the Eid isn’t just for the person who wears new and nice clothes, but the Eid is a celebration for that person who in the month of Ramadan increases their good deeds.

For that we thank Allah SWT. We praise Him. We say Allahu Akbar (God is great), Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar. Arabic The Prophet (pbuh: Peace be upon him) of Allah SWT where he said when he said Arabic that the fasting person has two delights. Two delights.

The first is at the time he or she breaks his fast. Now each day, when we were thirsty, we were tired. We were hungry. At the end of the day, when we had that first date. When we had that first sip of water, how much it quenched our thirst.

How much we appreciated it. That’s that “farha” (joy). But the important point isn’t just that it was a momentary delight, but that it made you forget all the difficulties that preceded it. And so this day of Eid, is supposed to be a celebration. The fatigue, the exhaustion, the exertion that we made and put forth to Allah SWT, that part is gone. The reward sustains. The reward remains.

So this, Arabic that delight when they break their fast, here today is a community when we collectively break our fast on this day of Eid Arabic, and the delight when that person meets their Lord. Imagine all the difficulties of this world when that moment we get to meet Allah SWT, all of them are forgotten. Everything becomes worth it. Like a woman when she gives birth, all the pains of labor, of pregnancy, all of them are gone, because the result is there, and she has that tremendous love.

So, Allah SWT promises us, the people that fasted and took advantage of Ramadan, that for them is true ‘farha’(joy). This day, today, and the day when we inshallah will meet our lord. And Ramadan, my respected brothers and sisters and elders taught us how to enjoy worshiping Allah. Look to subhanallah (the glory of God), we treat our religious duties outside of Ramadan as obligations. (Oh, I gotta pray, I gotta do this, I gotta do this, I didn’t do this), but in the month of Ramadan we treated them with excitement. I looked forward to going to the Mosque. I look forward to fasting tomorrow.

So, Ramadan taught us how we can enjoy the ibadah (acts of worship) of Allah SWT. And this is something that I want you guys to remember here today. That Ramadan is over, but we can still enjoy the worship of Allah SWT. In Ramadan we fasted, the whole month. Your colleagues all thought you were crazy.

And yet, every single day you fasted, from the morning to the evening, from food and drink in the middle of the summer of Arizona, and we enjoyed it. So Prophet SWT promises us that the one who follows Ramadan with six days in Shawal, they get the reward as if the entire year they were fasting. So we should resolve, because every deed is x 10, so 30 + 6 x 10 is 360, so the entire year of reward is given to us for fasting six days of this year, this month inshallah. We prayed taraweeh, inshallah, we were punctual with our salah (prayer). Let’s not give up on our salah, after the month of Ramadan. We came in for fajr.

We shouldn’t make it that we came and prayed and now we don’t get up for fajr. But we should be punctual with our salah. We should populate the Mosque, just like you see it today. The spirit of Ramadan of community worship should be in existence all the time.

And if we mutually support one another, “let’s go to the Mosque”, “let’s have these classes”, we will see that it will become easier. Just like it was easy in the month or Ramadan. We gave charity, we should continue to do so Arabic. The most beloved deeds to Allah SWT are those done on a regular basis, even if they are small.

That one dollar a day to charity is worth so much to Allah. We made du’aa for our brothers and sisters, for ourselves, to our brothers and sisters in Palestine and Syria, around the world, today, and now is the day we follow that up with effort. The prophet, one of the companions of the Prophet Arabic, he was in the service of the Prophet PBUH, and the Prophet (pbuh) asked him, asked for something. Now imagine, imagine if we had one wish, what would we wish for? We all have these desires, what did he wish for? He didn’t wish for, you know, the best mansion, and the best car, and all this money, and good health. He didn’t even wish for Jenna (heaven).

He was higher than that. He was a high level thinker. He said Arabic. The Prophet of Allah, oh Prophet of Allah, I want your companionship in paradise.

He was a high level thinker, and the Prophet PBUH could have said, “sure, I will make du’aa”. But he said something to him, and I want you all to remember this point. He said Arabic, assist me by doing lots of sajdahs (prostrations). So we made our du’aa for guidance, but we have to follow them up with effort. We made du’aa for guidance. We need to strive and struggle and make it a point to come to the masjid.

We made du’aa for our brothers and sisters. We need to support them with our wealth by signing these pledge forms, by contacting our representatives. This is the follow up that is required. A person, if they sat home and they made du’aa for a job, didn’t submit their resume anywhere, didn’t apply, they wouldn’t get the job. So, similarly, the du’aas in Ramadan, they are not enough. They need to be followed up with actions and this is the time when we do those actions. Ramadan was about Qur’an and in inshallah in this masjid we are going to start classes for tajweed.

The sheikh and I will start classes on Hifz (memorization) for the children to memorize Qur’an, for adults to learn to read properly, and inshallah all of these things will take place. So stay in touch with the masjid, come and attend these classes. They will start very soon inshallah for your children, so that in a few years we will be producing young hifaz in this community inshallah. And this is the desire that everyone has in Ramadan.

These good emotions, don’t let them die out after Ramadan, but let’s start immediately following it up. And in the month of Ramadan we avoided that which was haram. Listening to, speaking to, looking at, so let’s not waist it. Allah SWT says what Arabic. Don’t be like the woman who unravels the thread after she has already spun it.

Right, so we put forth, we put a lot of effort. But let’s not waist it right after Ramadan. Shaytan (satan) was locked up for 30 days and he is coming back with a vengeance. He is coming back with a vengeance. It is much harder to come to the Mosque. It is much harder to wake up for fajr.

It is much harder to read Qur’an now. But that’s the struggle.

That’s the beauty that Allah SWT charged us up in this month of Ramadan. And if we continue and work for the sake of Allah SWT the deeds will become easy. The community will flourish and we will find tremendous good. If you are grateful, I will surely increase my bounty upon you. May Allah SWT accept from us all and give us the honor after Ramadan. Arabic Respected brothers and sisters, and elders in Islam. This is the day of celebration.

This is the day of our Eid. You should take the day off of work. You should tell your boss that I have to celebrate Eid today. You should take your kids and buy them gifts, take them to Toys R’ Us. Buy them some gifts. Take them go-karting. Have fun with them.

Tell your spouse that you love them. Have dinner with your family. Smile to one another.

The sahaba (friends of the Prophet) after this Eid, they would embrace one another. They would say Arabic, that may Allah forgive you and me. May Allah accept you and me.

Till after this salah and inshallah. Brothers, embrace the brothers, and sisters, embrace the sisters. Inshallah, meet new people. In the spirit of community, go up to 20 people that you don’t know today, give them a hug, say my name is this, what is your name? May Allah SWT accept from both of us. Such a beautiful thing in our religion. Look at the diversity within the room.

This is something, the day of celebration that we should make sure that our children enjoy this day. Don’t be like the people who say, you know, “ok we gotta go to Eid”, “we gotta go to Eid, and then I gotta go to work”. No, but celebrate it with your family inshallah, so that the children remember and enjoy this day. But as we enjoy this day, let’s not forget our brothers and sisters who are struggling. The prophet (pbuh) said that, he said Arabic. That the believers are like one body.

When the eye hurts, the whole body hurts. When the head hurts the whole body hurts. When you have a headache, you can’t just be chillin’. You got a headache. Your whole body becomes unable to do anything, and this is the example the believers are like one body. Those who aren’t concerned about our brothers and sisters. They are not from amongst us.

Today there is an entire industry that is vilifying Islam and vilifying Muslims. And saying that Muslims are the aggressors, Muslims are the terrorists, well in fact, so many Muslims are the victims all across the world. And we need to understand this.

We need to make du’aa for this. There are people who are paid, even Muslims, who go on Fox News and speak ill against Muslims–who speak ill against our Muslim brothers and sisters. And we need to ask ourselves, this is something that is really a problem, and we can’t just complain, but we need to ask ourselves, do we love Islam more than they hate it? We should ask ourselves this question. Do we love Islam more than they hate it?

People have spent their careers attacking Islam. The Islamophobia industry is huge today.

And their whole job is to vilify Muslims–make them look bad. Make the masajid, look bad. Well, in fact, how do we respond? Not just by complaining, but by taking proactive steps. By learning our deen (religion), right?

If we are not able to articulate and respond points to these people, we need to learn our deen. We need to study our Qur’an. We need– there are so many– we need to come to the Mosque, we need to build positive Muslim communities. Invite our colleagues, our neighbors and say: “they don’t represent us”. “They don’t represent us”. We, the Muslim community represent one another. And we care for our brothers and sisters in Palestine deeply.

And that is why we have these petitions for you. That’s why we have these petitions because we care about our brothers and sisters who are being oppressed in Syria and Palestine in different parts of the world. We ask Allah SWT to have mercy on them. We need to pool our communal resources to do better responses against this Islamophobia industry that main stream media.

We have people who are very eloquent. We have people who are good writers. We need to use these things.

You know, write up opeds to the newspaper instead of just posting Facebook statuses, right? We need to engage, interact with our communities and inshallah engage our representatives, and most importantly we need to learn our deen. The most important thing is we need to learn our Qur’an. We don’t know what our Qur’an says. So when they mis-quote our Qur’an, we are not able to respond.

So inshallah let’s all make that niyah (intention). Let’s all make that intention that I am going to study my religion. I am going to make my children and teach them my religion and then use whatever gifts Allah SWT has given, me for the sake of deen.

Everyone has that intention inshallah? (audience responds “inshallah”). So let’s make that our intention. And if you can’t do it, but Allah blessed you with wealth, then support these institutions. Support these institutions, these masajid, those advocacy organizations like CAIR and others who are supporting Muslims and Muslim civil rights around the country. We need to support these groups.

So inshallah, this is the opportunity. We leave with this high in the month of Ramadan. Let’s not let it die down, but lets keep engaged. Let’s engage and fasting six days and come to the mosque and stay, like this beautiful community that we have established. Lets not let it fall apart after Ramadan.

So inshallah, this is the day like I said, as we finish this the khutbah (sermon), after the khutbah, make sure you embrace 20 people you don’t know here today. Introduce yourself to them, introduce yourself to them and say may Allah SWT forgive you.

May Allah SWT have mercy on you. And may Allah SWT accept our deeds. We ask that Allah SWT that all the efforts we made in this month, that Allah SWT accept them from us. Whatever fasting we did that ya Allah, it was hot in this month of Ramadan. It was Arizona summer, but I fasted for you Allah, so accept it from me. Make it a means, a protection from the hell fire for us. May Allah SWT make us a community of Qur’an.

May Allah SWT make us a community that loves one another, that is a positive example for the community outside of us for our neighbors, for our friends, for our colleagues. May Allah SWT bless each and every one of you. And like I said before: enjoy this Eid with your family.

Buy them some gifts and say I love you to your spouse and to your family. Call on your relatives that you haven’t called in awhile and smile at one another.

1424 Eid ul Fitr Khutbah – Part I by Ibrahim B. President Islamic Research Foundation International, Inc. Shefford Lane Louisville, KY, U.S.A. E-mail: Website: This Eid ul Fitr Khutbah was delivered by Dr. Syed to the Muslims of Greater Louisville Area in Kentucky on November 25, 2003 corresponding to 1 Shawwal 1424 AH. You are the best. You are the best.

You are the best Ummah. The Qur'an says ' kunthum Khaira Ummathin ukhrijat Linnas' You are the best community that is raised for the whole of mankind.

You are American Muslims. Those who are coming of age in the west, are perhaps the best generation that the Ummah has yet produced; you are highly educated, observant of an Islam largely unhindered by the cultural baggage that stifles so many Muslim countries. For the first time in history, the dominant powers in the West contain millions of Muslims.

There is absolutely nothing that can stop determined Muslims from becoming policy makers and leaders in our government. It is a great irony that the Muslim world's brightest hope lies not in a warlord come to deliver them of their woes, a Sultan Salahuddin, nor in a new movement, but in highly educated and sophisticated westerners who happen to be followers of Islam. Unfortunately, the underdevelopment of the Muslim world also includes a widespread ignorance of Islam - even among those who claim to speak for it - and this severing of Muslims from Islam is partially a result of colonialism. The key really is who, the ignorant or the knowledgeable, defines and interprets the Shariah. Rama dan is a magnificent bounty in itself for the one who reaches it, and sadly, there will always be those who are prevented from fasting in it Inner secrets of fasting and its characteristics There are three levels of fasting: The general fast, the specific fast, and the more specific fast.

As for the general fast, then it is the refraining of the stomach and the private parts from fulfilling their desires. The specific fast is the refraining of ones gaze, tongue, hands, feet, hearing and eyes, as well as the rest of his body parts from committing sinful acts. As for the more specific fast, then it is the heart's abstention from its yearning after the worldly affairs and the thoughts which distance one away from Allah, as well as its (the heart's) abstention from all the things that Allah has placed on the same level.

From the characteristics of the specific fast is that one lowers his gaze and safeguards his tongue from the repulsive speech that is forbidden, disliked, or which has no benefit, as well as controlling the rest of his body parts. In a hardest reported by Al-Bukhaaree: 'Whosoever does not abandon false speech and the acting upon it, Allah is not in need of him leaving off his food and drink.' Saheeh al-Bukhaaree, Abu Dawood, at-Tirmidhee and Ibn Maajah Another characteristic of the specific fast is that one does not overfill himself with food during the night. Instead, he eats in due measure, for indeed, the son of Aadam does not fill a vessel more evil than his stomach.

If he were to eat his fill during the first part of the night, he would not make good use of himself for the remainder of the night. In the same way, if he eats to his fill for suhoor, he does not make good use of himself until the afternoon. This is because excessive eating breeds laziness and lethargy. Therefore, the objective of fasting disappears due to one's excessiveness in eating, for what is intended by the fast, is that one savors the taste of hunger and becomes an abandoner of desires. FASTING Of the five pillars of Islam, fasting is one of the most important. 'O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed for you, as it was prescribed for those before you, so that you may guard (against evil).

2: 183 Ramadan means heat. It is the 9 th month in the Islamic month. Ramadan is the most sacred month in the Islamic calendar and fasting in the month of Ramadan is obligatory. Ramadan has great blessings for Believers. This great month is essentially a month of absolute and unqualified devotion to the Creator, which strengthens the relationship between man and his Lord. Ramadan is the most blessed among all months, so much so that the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) has described it as Allah's own month.

Our Lord bestows mercy and blessings on His servants in the first part of Ramadan, forgives their sins in the middle part of Ramadan and delivers them from the fire of Hell in the last part of Ramadan. According to Tradition, the Almighty said: Fasting is for Me and I would Myself grant reward for it. Fasting gives us the ability to rise above great pain and see calmness and peace in any situation. By fasting we focus on sentiments that promote harmony. Fasting promotes us to find our inner strength and eliminate hatred.

Why Should Muslims Fast? An ascetic element in human life is a necessity. No religion is possible without an element of self-denial and asceticism. In order to be able to enjoy the harvest of sensual perception, one must retreat once in a while from the abundant life of the senses.

Thus a certain degree of restraint from the material makes the life of senses balanced and opens in the human soul for the spiritual life. One such restraint is fasting, obligatory upon Muslims during the month of Ramadan and at other times. During the fast, the abstention is directed toward the carnal soul, what the Qur'an calls 'al-nafs al-ammarah.' In fasting, the unruly trends of the carnal soul are steadily restrained and soothed through a planned compliance of these trends to the Divine Will.

During the fast, the cravings of the carnal soul go unanswered, as the Muslim is reminded that his fast is for the pleasure of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala). It is, therefore, important for a Muslim to abstain, not only from food and drink, but also from every form of sensual cravings. During the duration of fasting, food and drink that were taken for granted for the rest of the year become ni'mah or gifts from heaven. The fasting becomes a shield of purity against the passions of the world.

In fasting a Muslim chooses the side of Allah over this world of materialism. That is why Prophet Muhammad (Salla Allahu Alayhi wa Sallam) loved fasting so frequently and he said ' al-faqr fakhri' ( spiritual poverty is my glory) The Death of Passion Purifies the Human Soul. It is for this reason that the arrival of the blessed month of Ramadan is greeted with happiness. For in this month the doors of heaven are opened to the faithful and Divine Compassion plunges upon those who seek it. Those who complete the fast of Ramadan feel rejuvenated and are prepared to face another year with firmness to live and act according to the Divine Will.

The Benefits of Fasting: Fasting is a great religious and spiritual act. Its purpose is to teach us self-discipline, piety and consciousness of Allah. It teaches patience and forbearance.

It also teaches consideration, kindness and charity to the poor and needy. Fasting has two aspects: 1. To leave food, drink and a few other things that the Shari’ah tells us to avoid during fasting. To avoid everything that displeases Allah.

To avoid sin altogether and to live the life of Taqwa (God consciousness) always. Fasting has many benefits: 1. It purifies the soul and is healthy for the body. It teaches self-control. It creates the love of Allah and the awareness of His presence with us.

It elevates the human beings from mere animal existence to the angelic existence. It turns away the Shaitan from a person. It increases the sympathy with the poor and needy and increases the feeling of charity and generosity towards them. Fasting does not bring only a discipline and strength in an individual, it brings also a social consciousness. Human society, unfortunately, is divided into various classes and groups. Distinctions are made on the basis of wealth, status and family. There are privileged people in this world and also deprived ones, and great social barriers exist between rich and poor, wealthy and destitute.

Fasting of the Ramadan brings all of them on the same level and both rich and poor spend their days without eating and drinking. This practice awakens a sense of social responsibility in those who are wealthy and a sense of sacrifice and forbearance in those who are poor. So Ramadan has a great social significance. Ramadan is the season of goodness, piety and faithfulness and if a person observes its fasting carefully and faithfully he will, at the end, come out as an individual who is purer spiritually and more responsible socially. At the end of the month emerges a new personality ready to work on a sound spiritual and moral basis throughout the whole coming year. It motivates a person to do more good deeds. It pleases Allah and it assures us of His forgiveness and Mercy in this life and in the hereafter.

Fasting in Ramadan brings special blessings. The reward of every good deed is multiplied during this month seventy times. Muslims fast together and it gives them a sense of unity and solidarity.

The month of Ramadan is that in which the Qur'an was revealed, a guidance to men and clear proofs of the guidance and the distinction; therefore whoever of you is present in the month, he or she fast therein, and whoever is sick or upon a journey, then (he or she shall fast) a (like ) number of other days.You should exalt the greatness of Allah for His having guided you and that you may give thanks. Fasting delivers many significant benefits to the believer, both in this world and in the next (Aakhirah), it is nevertheless one of the most difficult acts of worship. In the Qur'an we read ' Wa Aqeemus Salaata Wa Aatuz Zakata'.

This may be why salat, the easiest act of worship, is commanded first, and then paying the alms, which is of moderate difficulty. The final command is fasting, the most difficult of all the tasks which have been prescribed on the believers. Hence it can be seen that the believers are being trained to fulfill their obligations towards Allah by letting them begin with the easiest task and then having them progress to the most difficult. The Haidth in which the five pillars of Islam are listed are also found in the same order, starting from the easiest, ending with the most difficult, i.e. The proclamation of the words of faith (the Shahadah), the performance of Salat, the paying of alms, fasting and pilgrimage.

This same verse also states that these were also prescribed on the previous nations, informing us that these are part of a divine law stretching from the past to the present. Another Hadith states that fasting is a shield for man and woman, implying fasting is a shield that protects us from the sharp sword of our animal desires, instincts or biological urges. Besides the feeling of hunger and thirst, fasting teaches us to control the love of comfort.

It helps us to keep our sexual desires within control. Siyaam(fasting) builds and nourishes the soul of the fasting Muslim. The fasting person enriches his fasting by the remembrance of Allah, the recitation of the Qur’an, the night prayers, Zakah, Sadaqah(charity), and by refraining from sins and obscenity. The fasting person lowers his gaze and suppresses his desires.

He guards his tongue from vain talk and obscenities. He guards his hands and legs from the prohibitions of Allah.

He employs his hands and legs in the good and various deeds. Siyaam is not the mere refraining from eating and drinking, it is also refraining from vanity and obscenity. Siyaam builds a strong will and nourishes the truthful zeal in the soul. This is achieved when the fasting person struggles to work for his livelihood and resists his desires and temptations. Siyaam builds the strength to bear difficulties and hardship and instills the character of perseverance.

The fasting person by depriving himself from food and drink, and other necessities of life becomes capable of controlling his desires, capricious whims, and temptations. The purpose of fasting is to enable a Muslim to control his passions, so that he becomes a person of good deeds and intentions Islam does not aim to make life difficult for us; hence exemption for those who are weak from fasting, terminally ill, or of extreme old age are not required to fast; rather they can feed a poor person twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening, in lieu of their fast. An able-bodied person who does not fast is considered a sinner, as he is ignoring an important commandment of Allah the Almighty. Fasting is the highest form of sincerity (Ikhlaas), as only the one who is fasting can know of his or her fast. Fasting does not have an outer form, it can not be detected from the outside. Fasting is, therefore, not an ostentatious(showy or grandiose) act, it is done only for the sake and pleasure of Allah (SWT). Fasting is a form of Ibadah (worship).

Polytheists do not worship their gods through fasting. Because fasting is a deed of special qualities, its reward is kept a secret. Allah (SWT) has not explained the rewards that will be given in the hereafter. The duty of fasting is not fulfilled by simply remaining hungry and thirsty.

A fasting believer should be careful in his treatment of others. He should not verbally abuse others, nor should commit immoral acts. No quarreling in the month of Ramadan.

Eid Greetings In Arabic

The fasting person is rewarded twice, both in this world and in the hereafter. Allah (SWT) has declared that the reward for fasting will be different from the rewards for other pious deeds. In the Qur'an it is stated that the reward of a good deed will be paid from ten to seven hundred times the value of the deed, however, in the case of fasting no number is given. It means that Allah (SWT) will reward this act with unlimited bounties. According to Hadith one should fast all of the month of Ramadan in order to obtain the promised reward. Hence, if a believer fasts only for a few days in Ramadan, not completing the full month, he will not be able to benefit.

Khutbah Tahajjud In Arabic

However, if one cannot complete the full month, due to illness or the necessity of travel, or some other compelling reasons, then that person will receive the full reward, according to his or her initial good intention. If a believer has not committed many sins then fasting will elevate his or her spiritual level in the Aakhirah. Please report any broken links to Copyright © 1988-2012 irfi.org. All Rights Reserved.
