Allah grants His mercy to whom He wills and raises whom He wills in faith. What does it mean to be among those chosen, and how can we strive to be included?
Listen to this khutbah to reflect on how Allah selects His servants for special mercy, guidance, and increase in iman, and what we can do to seek that honor.

Dr. Omar Suleiman continues his reflection on the characteristics of the Servants of the Most Merciful through Surah Al-Furqan, ayahs 70–71. In this episode, he explains how true repentance is marked by sincere regret, a firm intention not to return to sin, and a commitment to rectifying past wrongdoing.

The Servants of the Most Merciful do not plan their sins, nor do they take repentance lightly. Instead, they turn back to Allah with humility and hope, seeking His vast mercy. Watch this episode to learn how sincere tawbah can transform your mistakes into means of forgiveness and wipe away your sins.

Major sins do not happen overnight. 

Dr. Omar Suleiman expands on verse 25 of Surah Furqan, “They are˺ those who do not invoke any other god besides Allah, nor take a ˹human˺ life—made sacred by Allah—except with ˹legal˺ right, nor commit fornication. And whoever does ˹any of˺ this will face the penalty.”

This episode explores how major sins line shirk, murder, and zina begin long before the act itself, through heedlessness, unchecked desires, and spiritual neglect. Learn why your lowest moments matter more than your spiritual highs, how sin develops step by step, and how believers protect their faith by staying mindful, accountable, and connected to Allah.

After Jerusalem was opened, the world didn’t celebrate — it came for revenge.

Europe gathered its greatest kings. Richard the Lionheart arrived with a mind as sharp as his sword. The siege of Acre dragged on for years until both sides were exhausted — then came a betrayal no one expected.

This is where Salahuddin is tested like never before: a shocking wedding proposal, a massacre that changed the Crusades, a Frankish mother running to the Sultan for help — and a leader who refused to become the monster he was fighting.
