Let the Quran Illuminate You (End of Ramadan Advice) | Friday Khutbah

A challenge from Ustadh Nouman - maintain your connection with the Quran by studying Surah Al-Baqarah on Bayyinah TV: https://byna.tv/22 As Ramadan comes to an end, Ustadh Nouman dedicates today’s khutbah - from the Islamic Center of Wheaton - to the importance of maintaining a strong bond with the Quran, using it as a guide to illuminate our hearts from darkness to light. Ustadh begins by reflecting on past nations who altered their revelations, preserved their texts only for the elite, and diluted the seriousness of Hellfire by assuming they were already chosen to be saved. The Quran came to shatter this status quo, bring clarity, revolutionize the world with its message that we are all equal, we are all responsible for our own actions, and that it’s up to us to take heed or remain behind (Surah Al-Muddaththir, Ayah 37). Concluding the khutbah, Ustadh Nouman shares a harrowing reminder of how Muslims of today are shackled by their desires and enslaved to the ‘new god’ - i.e. the internet, social media and our desires, and pleads with us to hold firm to the Quran.
