ON THE RISE Part 5 of 7
END OF TIMES Minor & Major Signs - Jumuah khutbah given in Perth City organized by Perth City Musallah Association 05/11/2021
We are moving forward on the assumption that we are now ‘On The Rise’ Insha Allah.
And while we are attempting or trying to rise up, there is something we always need to be alert and cautious about, something that with which if we mess around, it can throw us out of Islam and thus we will end up loosing the Akhirah and none of us can afford to loose the Akhirah. And that thing is SHIRK. Hence we covered it in first two khutbahs of the series.
Next we concentrated on another important thing. While rising up and after we have risen to whatever level Allah wishes for us to rise, where do we want to find ourselves, where do want to end up? What good is it (akhirah point of view) if we find ourselves in ‘Enemies of Islam’ camp for example or ‘Enemies of Humanity’ camp or ‘Camp of Godless People’ or ‘Freemasons’ camp – OOPS how did I get here. But that could be too late. Therefore we learnt or reminded ourselves about Al Wala wal Bara in the 3rd and 4th khutbahs of the series.
Next let us concentrate on ‘End of Times’ related information because we are closest to ‘End of Times’ than all the Muslims of the past. Therefore while rising up, we need to consider whether it could be ‘End of Times’ scenario because if it is, then we can’t just rely on knowledge and experiences of the past but rather we will also need to take ‘End of Times’ factors into consideration. And as we know this is a huge subject, but I will only be sharing some pieces of information and hope that Insha Allah it will be sufficient for us to get an idea.
Concluding with Hadith Jibraeel to prove that End of Times is serious business.
And Allah knows best.
