Let's examine some facts from history and today's reality:What made the Quraysh hesitate on accepting Islam?Why did some Muslims side with Genghis Khan?Why do today's leaders rely on their enemies for protection?How should we envision the “greater good” for the community? All these questions are answered as the Sheikh takes us on a intense journey through the Seerah, Islamic history, and today's harsh realities—to uncover how we can regain the path to dignity, victory, and revival for the Ummah.

Muslims across the world celebrate Eid al-Adha with joy—yet many hearts remain burdened by the pain of division and ongoing injustice. As the Ummah reflects on the profound sacrifice of Ibrahim (AS), we must ask ourselves: Are we truly embodying his spirit of submission? Or have we unknowingly upheld the false god of secularism—by separating Islam from politics, governance, and the systems that shape our daily lives? From Gaza to Sudan, from acts of sincere worship to widespread disunity, the speaker poses a critical question:Will we continue stoning symbolic pillars while the real Shayṭān rules our world?Or will we rise and strive to fulfill the promise of a unified Ummah—living by Islam in its entirety and seeking the pleasure of Allah (SWT)?

Do you live with two hearts? One devoted to Friday prayers and sacred rituals—while the other remains silent in the face of global injustice? In this powerful episode, the speaker uncovers the spiritual split afflicting the Ummah: public displays of worship alongside quiet submission to man-made systems. The Qur'an reminds us—Allah did not place two hearts in any man. So why do we divide ours between tawheed and secularism? From Gaza to Sudan, Kashmir to Chicago, oppression roars—yet the voice of the Ummah remains faint.Join the Sheikh as he shatters the illusion that silence is wisdom and makes a bold call that must extend beyond the masjid into every corner of our lives.

He smashed idols, challenged tyrants, was thrown into fire, and prepared to sacrifice his own son—all for Allah (SWT). In this stirring talk, the speaker urges Muslims to honor the legacy of Ibrahim (AS) not with ritual alone—but with action. As the sacred days of Dhul Hijjah unfolds, discover how true devotion means destroying today's ideological idols and working to build a society grounded in tawheed, Sharia, and complete submission to Allah (SWT).

Why do Muslims still look to the same corrupt institutions for salvation? The Sheikh dismantles the illusion that today's world is built on justice—revealing how the very systems claiming to defend humanity are the architects of genocide. As Gaza bleeds and nations stay silent, the Ummah remains spiritually present but politically absent. Will we keep moving without direction, or will we finally rise with the only complete solution that liberates, governs, and protects?

Join this riveting talk where the Sheikh takes listeners deep into how the Prophet ﷺ and the Qur'an forged a generation of Sahabah ready to carry the banner of Islam after his death. Men and women carved by revelation, endurance, and an everlasting connection with Allah (SWT). They were prepared. Today, however, Muslims scroll past genocide, wait for permission to resist, and plead for solutions from the very systems that suppress them. Gaza burns, and the Ummah looks the other way—because it was never trained to act. The Good News — That blueprint still exists. The Qur'an hasn't changed. The mission hasn't changed.What's missing is us—willing to be built like them.

Nationalism is a crisis that has shattered the unity that Islam once forged between Bilal(RA), Suhayb(RA), and Salman al Farsi(RA). The sheik unapologetically calls out the false pride dividing Muslims by flags, borders, and bloodlines.   Join the Sheik as he defines the crisis and the only solution. 

As Gaza burns, Arab rulers bow—and the Ummah stays silent. The Sheik delivers an unfiltered wake-up call for the Muslim world. He exposes the shocking contrast between Arab leaders who funnel trillions to Western tyrants like Trump, while offering nothing to the suffering in Gaza, Sudan, and Kashmir. Will this be another year of silent betrayal, or the year for the Ummah reclaim our dignity? Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VH1RjOsj2oo

Studying Prophet Saleh (عليه السلام)'s story is an amazing reflection of our present. His people plotted, ignored warnings, and demanded punishment instead of repentance. Sound familiar?From the carved homes of Thamud to the war-torn streets of Gaza and Kashmir, the Sheik reflects on some powerful questions:Are we living like the rejecters while claiming the legacy of the believers?If Saleh's nation was destroyed for denying the truth, what of us—when we know it and still do nothing?

What good is raising a child in a house of prayer if the world outside is on fire and you stay silent?Does Islam teach us to protect our families—while abandoning the Ummah?This powerful lesson from the Sheik demands us to rethink how Islam requires us to not only  save those in our living room, but also to save the world and bring it to the light.

When leaders become liars, rulings are bought, and the Qur'an becomes a melody—not a message—what are we as an Ummah to do? Join the sheik as he discusses a powerful and authentic hadith referenced in Sunan Ibn Majah, Hadith 4036 narrated by Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) and Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman (رضي الله عنه).

Drawing from the sacrifices of Mus'ab ibn Umair (RA), the wisdom of the Prophet ﷺ, and the urgent lessons of today's Ummah, the speaker challenges the audience to rethink their relationship with the dunya and their divine purpose. In an age flooded with wealth, comfort, and distractions and illusions to sincerely question: Will we be dignified like the Sahabah, or humiliated by our pursuit of this world?

What if the unity we Muslims talk about... is already written in our hearts—but we keep tearing it apart with our actions? In this deeply reflective episode, the speaker takes listeners on a journey through history, the Qur'an, and today's tragedies—from tribal warfare in pre-Islamic Arabia to the genocide in Gaza—highlighting one eternal truth: Allah(swt) already united our hearts, but we've abandoned His guidance. Are we truly fulfilling the responsibility Allah(swt) placed on this Ummah, or have we surrendered to borders, pride, and silence?

What if we are living one of the most devastating stories from the Qur'an… without even realizing it? The sheik brings to life a haunting warning for us from Surah Al-A‘raf—the story of a man gifted with divine signs, only to detach and follow his desires. Are we clinging to the earth when Allah has called us to go otherwise?More importantly, how can we correct ourselves?

The speaker brilliantly explains Islamic personality, its components and how its forged through unwavering belief in Qadr. Drawing from the legacy of the Prophet ﷺ, the resolve of the Sahabah, and the steadfastness of the people of Gaza, the speaker reveals how the Islamic personality if shaped correctly through the understanding of Qadr, the person will emerge resilient, purpose driven, and unwavering in the face of any test.

With death looming as the inevitable certainty, the speaker demands deep reflection from every Muslim: If tomorrow was our last day, what legacy would we leave? This message awakens the Ummah to reclaim its divine purpose — not just as believers, but as protectors, leaders, and agents of justice for all humanity. The question is no longer what's happening in Gaza, Sudan, or Kashmir — it's what are you doing about it?

In a time when the Muslim Ummah is tested by compromise, distraction, and relentless oppression, this powerful reflection from the Sheik challenges listeners to confront an uncomfortable truth: have we replaced divine guidance with majority opinion?As the Ummah enters another year of confusion and conflict, the sheik provides clear cut answers.

Let's reflect on the global silence on the issue of Gaza and beyond.  More importantly let's focus on our own role in allowing the atrocities to continue.  With every plea for justice and every cry from the oppressed, the question echoes louder:What case will we present before Allah(swt) on the Day of Judgment?

In this deeply profound Eid message, the speaker draws us into a deeper awareness of our Eid celebration to reveal the immense responsibility we carry as an Ummah.Amidst joy and prayer, he invites listeners to reflect: How can we be the best nation brought forth for mankind if our brothers and sisters across the world continue to suffer? What does it truly mean to lead, to unite, and to carry the mission of justice? This Eid khutbah honors the blessings of Ramadan—and asks with a heavy heart:When will we rise as an Ummah—led not just in prayer—but in purpose and mission for the sake of all the oppressed Muslims not only in Gaza and the world, but for all of humanity?

Bismillahi Ar-Rahman Ar-Raheem. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds, and may blessings and peace be upon the best of messengers, our master Mohammad, and upon all his family and companions... Bukhari extracted in his Sahih on the authority of Muhammad Bin Ziyad that he said, I heard Abu Hurairah (ra) say: that the Prophet (saw) said, or he said: Abu Al-Qasim (saw) said: «صوموا لِرُؤيتِهِ وأَفْطِرُوا لرؤيتِهِ فإنْ غُـبِّيَ عليكم فَعُدُّوا ثَلَاثِينَ»“Observe fast on sighting it (the new moon) and break it on sighting it. But if (due to clouds) the actual position of the moon is concealed from you, you should then complete thirty days.” After investigating the new moon of Shawwal on this blessed eve of Sunday, the sighting of the new moon has been confirmed according to the Shariah requirements. Accordingly, tomorrow, Sunday, will be the first day of the month of Shawwal and the first day of the blessed Eid al-Fitr. On this occasion, Hizb ut Tahrir extends its sincere congratulations to the Muslim Ummah on the occasion of blessed Eid al-Fitr, asking Allah to bring it back next year with its state established, its Deen empowered, and its honorable Islam glorified. I also extend special congratulations, on behalf of myself and the Head of the Central Media Office of Hizb ut Tahrir and all the brothers and sisters working in its departments and units, to the Ameer of Hizb ut Tahrir, the eminent scholar Ata Bin Khalil Abu al-Rashtah (may Allah protect him). We ask Allah (swt) to grant him success in fulfilling the glad tidings of the Messenger of Allah (saw) of the establishment of the second Khilafah Rashidah (Rightly-Guided Caliphate) on the method of the Prophethood at his hands. While we are pained by the decades-long scourge of wars that have plagued our Islamic Ummah, as one de-escalates another erupts, decimating its people and claiming their lives—not least is the brutal war that has been ongoing against our people in Gaza and the West Bank since October 7, 2023—we nevertheless anticipate a change that is beginning to unfold, transforming the state of the Islamic Ummah from one of killing and humiliation to one of victory and glory, and, Allah willing, bringing an end to the Ummah's tragedies. Since the Arab Spring revolutions, then Operation Flood of Al-Aqsa and the fall of the criminal Bashar al-Assad, the Islamic Ummah has been in a state of turmoil and conflict with the reality imposed upon it by the West. It has become more acutely aware of the ugliness of this reality and more eager to free itself from it. It has grown closer to Islam, becoming stronger and more determined to confront its rulers in an attempt to reclaim its authority from them. The Ummah has experienced the toll of remaining under the yoke of agent regimes. It has witnessed with its own eyes the rulers' squandering of its wealth to the kuffar, colonialist West, their abandonment of it and its causes, their prevention of armies from mobilizing to rescue Palestine from the clutches of the criminal Jews, the blatant Western interference in its religion and its integrity, and the attempt to force it to bow its head to the Jewish entity, leaving it with the choice between normalization and death. All these scenes and events have made it realize that without the rule of Islam, it will remain colonized, targeted, and humiliated. Its conviction of its need for a Khilafah (Caliphate) state has been strengthened, and indeed, the Khilafah (Caliphate) has become its quest. By the grace of Allah, the Ummah has begun to find its way and no longer accepts postponing the implementation of Islam as a way of life. It has a clear and blatant aversion to secularism. In Ash-Sham, it is demanding that its new rulers declare it purely for Allah alone, and in all the lands, it is monitoring them, asking Allah to grant them success and guidance. The West is at its weakest point in controlling the Ummah, and therefore it is at its fiercest,

In a world with nearly 2 billion Muslims, how is it possible we still break our fasts on different days? Why does the start of Eid come with confusion rather than celebration? The Prophet ﷺ made it simple: "Fast when you see it. Break your fast when you see it." That's it. No computations. No chaos. Just sincerity, unity, and submission to the natural order Allah set. Join the scholar as he powerfully explains the moon sighting controversy—what the confusion stems from, and provides evidences that not only solves the controversy, but also the division as an Ummah.

Tonight, we reflect on a short but earth-shaking surah.Surah Az-Zalzalah—only eight ayat, but its words thunder with truth, shaking the soul as the Earth itself will shake on that Final Day. “When the Earth is shaken with its ultimate quake…” This isn't just a metaphor. This is the end. The final trembling of a world that ignored its purpose. Skyscrapers, nations, thrones, weapons, armies—all reduced to dust.The earth will vomit out its secrets—every buried body, every hidden crime, every quiet deed done in the shadows. “And man will cry out: What is wrong with it?” Too late! The world they thought was theirs is testifying against them. This surah doesn't just tell you the Day of Judgment is coming—it demands you live with that Day in mind. That our actions and deeds matter. That nothing is small in the eyes of Allah(swt). Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHJhCbZuUbU

In Ramadan, Millions fast. Millions bow, Millions weep in du'a'. But did we fulfill the mission set forth by Allah(swt)?  Ramadan was never just a season of “hunger”—it was the annual call to rise, to revive, to realign with the mission of the Prophet ﷺ. A mission that began with light, truth, and resistance. A mission to liberate mankind from the chains of darkness—not just personal sins, but the tyrannies that suffocate societies. The Ummah is not suffering from weak Iman—but from a forgotten mission. We inherited this mission from the Prophet ﷺ who left us with a trust: to carry Islam forward, to implement it, to revive it and bring Allah's justice to this Earth for all of mankind. Join the sheik as he explains how we should take this Ramadan as a time to recharge and most importantly a time to respond.

In every masjid across the globe, millions of Muslims bow in unison, reciting verses from the unchanged, unmatched Book of Allah, yet our Ummah continues to bleed. We believe in the same Qur'an, we follow the same Prophet ﷺ, and we act with sincerity—but something is missing! We are told, "This is the Book in which there is no doubt, a guidance for the God-conscious,” and yet, the world's most God-conscious people are the most persecuted. From Gaza to Sudan, from Myanmar to Kashmir, the cries of the oppressed pierce the skies—while the world watches silently. Is our faith not sincere enough? Are our du'as not loud enough? Don't miss this extremely profound message from the Sheik on what's missing and how we can implement it to save all of Ummah and humanity at large!

In the 30th Juz of the Qur'an, nearly 36 surahs were revealed in Mecca, at a time when the Prophet ﷺ was not just calling to Islam but confronting a corrupt society head-on. These Meccan surahs weren't just about individual worship—they were a bold challenge to societal ills. Surahs like Al-Mutaffifin and Al-Fajr peel back the layers of injustice—showing how arrogance, materialism, and moral decay dominated Meccan society. And yet, these weren't just historical criticisms—they were divine reminders of the Day of Accountability, when Jahannam is brought forth and every soul will cry out, “I wish I had done something for my life!” Calling for Islam isn't just about feel-good messages—it's about diagnosing societal corruption and showing that Islam is the solution. Let's ask ourselves- When we face injustice, economic exploitation, or moral confusion, will be be the ones that speak up, just as our Prophet ﷺ did?

“He(swt) created death and life to test you.” In Surah al-Mulk, Allah doesn't mention life first—He(swt) mentions death first. Why? Life is the test, and death is when it ends—when we turn in the paper, and the grades come from the Almighty. In these last ten nights of Ramadan, this ayah reminds us that the goal is not who collected the most—money, cars, degrees, or applause—but who did the best deeds with sincerity and ikhlas. The contrast in Surah al-Mulk is sobering: are you the one who crawls blindly, face down in confusion, chasing fleeting pleasures? Or are you the one who walks upright, guided by purpose and revelation, heading toward Allah with clarity? The Prophet ﷺ once responded to a man asking about the Day of Judgment by asking, “What have you prepared for it?” That's the real question. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKqR_KHJuSc  

The piercing verses of Surat At-Taghabun, where Allah warns: “Indeed, among your spouses and your children are enemies to you—so beware of them.” It's a verse that shakes us—because the enemy isn't always an outsider. Sometimes it's the pressure from those closest to us—pressures that push us to compromise our deen, chase status over sincerity, and fall into disobedience in the name of love or comfort.

Our indebtedness to our parents is so immense that it is not possible to repay it. It is vital that we show the utmost kindness, respect, and obedience to our parents and likewise, pray for their forgiveness as well as ourselves and all the believers. We ask Allah swt to accept from all of us our du'as, acts of worship and good deeds. Ameen.

The hour is near, and the signs are clear—but are we truly awake? Allah split the moon as a miracle for Quraysh, yet they dismissed it as magic. Today, we too witness countless signs in our lives—blessings, warnings, and moments of hidayah—yet we delay our change. Surah Al-Qamar and the Prophet ﷺ's vivid description of the Day of Judgment paint a chilling picture: mountains reduced to dust, the earth flattened, silence across creation, and every soul driven to accountability. On that day, arrogance will shatter, and nothing will remain but our deeds in the court of the Almighty. What will come of this day for us? Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2dsHF3Zh_8

Did you know the Prophet ﷺ once knew the exact night of Laylatul Qadr, but Allah ﷻ took that knowledge away from him? Why? This hadith teaches us more than just where to look for Laylatul Qadr—it teaches us what action can cost us dearly! Source: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/860yIhxkO0A

In these sacred last ten nights of Ramadan, a deep reminder calls us back to a sin we commit almost daily—backbiting. It slips off our tongues, cloaked in humor, habit, or carelessness, yet it carries devastating weight in the eyes of Allah ﷻ. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_94QyMrN3qs

The Liberation of Mecca—a moment that reshaped history—took place during the sacred month of Ramadan, most commonly marked on the 20th day. After the Quraysh's allies violated a ceasefire agreement, the Prophet ﷺ saw the moment had come. With 10,000 disciplined Muslims moving toward Mecca, fully armed yet under strict orders to avoid bloodshed, the Prophet ﷺ demonstrated unmatched strength tempered with mercy. Today, as Gaza bleeds and Palestine remains under brutal occupation, this monumental event is not just history—it's a roadmap. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uv4918f_yJg

In These last ten nights of Ramadan, we are reminded that the Qur'an is a guide, not just for personal worship, but for solving society's deepest crises through the framework of Islam.  What is the solution for the current crisis in Palestine, Kashmir, and Sudan and elsewhere in the Muslim World? Who should we turn to for help? What do we center our understanding of current events around? Join the sheik in this powerful message for all Muslims to recenter their understanding of current events through the lens of the Qur'an

Allah doesn't just tell stories; He breaks them down in vivid, humbling detail so we can take lessons from them. Such is the case of Surah Fussilat where Allah (swt) shows us the downfall of the mighty nations of ‘Aad and Thamud, who, despite their strength and architectural marvels, were destroyed by something as simple as wind and sound. Join the speaker as he brings the lesson home. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b31exKD56XU

In the blessed month of Ramadan, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ led a defining moment in Islamic history: the peaceful liberation of Mecca. Despite a force of 10,000 Muslims prepared for battle, the Prophet commanded restraint, emphasizing mercy over vengeance. As we witness the ongoing oppression in Gaza and the occupation of Palestine, surrounded by capable yet inactive Muslim nations, the lesson from Mecca becomes urgent. The strength of unity, principled leadership, and the vision of Islamic civilization offer a path forward. Just as Mecca embraced peace, so too can Palestine be liberated—not through chaos, but by reviving the Prophetic model of strength, mercy, and resolve.

In a time when the horrors from Gaza flood our screens and weigh heavily on our hearts, a timeless verse from the Qur'an offers a beacon of hope and perspective. Allah (swt) says: وَنُرِيدُ أَن نَّمُنَّ عَلَى الَّذِينَ اسْتُضْعِفُوا فِي الْأَرْ‌ضِ وَنَجْعَلَهُمْ أَئِمَّةً And We intend to favor those who were held as weak in the land and to make them leaders. Surah Al-Qasas (28:5) It reminds us of Allah's divine promise—to elevate the oppressed, to grant them victory, and to establish them as rightful inheritors of the land. The very tyrants who seek to crush them will live to witness the rise of those they tried to bury. This reflection powerfully connects the struggles of Bani Isra'il with the current oppression faced by the people of Gaza. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFvor46nYLc

The Prophet ﷺ narrated that Allah says: "I am as My servant expects Me to be." (Sahih Bukhari & Muslim) This means our trust, hope, and expectations from Allah determine how we experience His mercy, guidance, and support. If we expect Allah to help us, He will. If we doubt His aid, we weaken our connection with Him. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3mTnIoHT4I

Why is Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa so important in Islam? Allah states in Surah Al-Isra: "Glory be to the One Who took His servant by night from Al-Masjid Al-Haram to Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa, whose surroundings We have blessed, to show him of Our signs. Indeed, He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing." (Quran 17:1) This verse alone establishes the sanctity, blessing, and immense importance of Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa and its surroundings in Bilad Al-Sham (Greater Syria, including Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria). At a time where we are witnessing the oppression of the people of Al-Quds and Gaza, join Dr. Wahid as he details the great importance of  The Blessed Status of Al Aqsa and Al Quds and asks Will we be among those who defend Al-Aqsa with our voices, actions, and prayers, or will we let history repeat itself?

Saying SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, La ilaha illallah is important, but true dhikr extends beyond words. This constant remembrance is not just through words but through our hearts, actions, and consciousness. When we continuously remember Allah, we draw closer to His mercy, protection, and guidance. Allah's remembrance is not just for rewards—it is a path out of darkness and into the light of guidance, truth, and justice. Are we truly living in the remembrance of Allah, or are we just reciting words without acting upon them? Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPdEo4myWHo

When confronted with truth, do we submit—or do we make excuses? The Quraysh of Mecca, like many today, believed in Allah—but only in name.When the Prophet ﷺ called them to implement Allah's guidance in every aspect of life, they responded with fear: "If we follow the guidance with you, we will be swept away from our land." (Surah Al-Qasas: 57) Fear of losing their status, wealth, and security held them back from submitting to the very Lord who sustained them, protected them, and provided for them. They failed to realize that the peace of Mecca, its prosperity, and its trade were not from their intelligence or strength, but from Allah alone. This fear did not die with them. Today, when Islam calls for true implementation, the same argument is made. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D6j_3KAf0E

Badr was not just the first battle in Islam—it was a defining moment in history. Had the believers not been victorious, Islam may not have survived. The Prophet ﷺ and his companions faced overwhelming odds: 319 believers against 1,000 Quraysh warriors. Yet, through faith, preparation, and Allah's help, they emerged victorious. Are we following the lessons of Badr today? Or are we allowing fear and hesitation to prevent us from standing for the truth? Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_kQVtgFSVo

Do you treat Islam as a personal ritual or as a complete system for life? Ramadan is the month of the Quran—a time when we immerse ourselves in its recitation, its meanings, and its impact on our lives. But what is the Quran calling us to? Is it just about personal spirituality, or is it meant to transform entire societies? As we reflect this Ramadan, let us not just read the Quran—let us live it, implement it, and work to restore the justice it commands.
