Allah (swt) says in the Noble Quran,]وَنَزَّلْنَا عَلَيْكَ الْكِتَابَ تِبْيَاناً لِكُلِّ شَيْء [“And We have sent down to you the Book as a clarification for all things” [TMQ Surah An-Nahl: 89]. This divine clarification affirms that Islam is not just a spiritual address, but a comprehensive system for life. It brings a firm belief that convinces the mind and fills the heart with peace, along with Shariah Laws that organize every aspect of human life; whether in governance, economy, society, politics, education, or international relations. It is the true Deen because it is from Allah (swt), and it is built on a solid foundation; the Islamic Aqeedah (doctrine), from which the system emanates. Therefore, a person’s connection to Islam is intellectual and based on conviction, not imitation or emotions. It aligns with the pure human nature and appeals to the mind. Those who believe in it with awareness can’t help but carry the Dawah to others, striving to show it and apply it. Carrying the Dawah to Islam is a great Shariah obligation and a huge responsibility.
Allah (swt) says,[وَأَنَّ هَذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيماً فَاتَّبِعُوه]“And indeed, this is My straight path, so follow it” [TMQ Surah Al-Anaam: 153]. So, have we followed what Allah (swt) has commanded us, especially since we have committed ourselves to carry this great trust and change this unjust reality by establishing the Khilafah Rashidah (Rightly-Guided Caliphate)?
O brothers and sisters: we bear a great responsibility. It is the trust of spreading the Risaalah message, carrying Islam, and establishing the Islam in as a way of life practically. This is the responsibility of the Prophets (as) and the inheritance of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (saw). Allah (swt) will ask us about what we were entrusted with, so let us work for a day when neither wealth nor children will be of any benefit, except for those who come to Allah (swt) with a pure heart. Yes, today is the time to act, not to be judged, and tomorrow will be the day of judgment, with no more actions possible. Today, we are asked: Did we deliver our Lord’s message? Did we follow the path of change as Allah (swt) commanded? Did we remain steadfast on the ideology, without compromising or retreating? Everything is fleeting, authority is temporary, and power will eventually fade. Allah (swt) said, [وَيَبْقَى وَجْهُ رَبِّكَ ذُو الْجَلَالِ وَالْإِكْرَامِ] “And the Face of your Lord will remain, full of majesty and honor” [TMQ Surah Ar-Rahman: 27].
O noble ones: What do you think of the scene on the Day of Gathering (Judgment Day)? That awe-inspiring and terrifying day; when every nursing mother will forget her child, every pregnant woman will drop her load, souls will be in shock, and eyes will weep. It is a day of distress, humiliation, and great fear. No one will be saved from it except those whose deeds are sincere and in full accordance with Allah’s commands. The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, «الْكَيِّسُ مَنْ دَانَ نَفْسَهُ وَعَمِلَ لِمَا بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ، وَالْعَاجِزُ مَنْ أَتْبَعَ نَفْسَهُ هَوَاهَا وَتَمَنَّى عَلَى اللَّهِ»“The wise person is the one who holds himself accountable and works for what comes after death, and the foolish one is he who follows his desires and merely wishes upon Allah.”
So, O carriers of the Dawah: you whom Allah (swt) has chosen to be His soldiers on this earth, do righteous and correct deeds as Allah (swt) has ordered, not according to whims or worldly interests. Remain steadfast on the path, purify your intentions, hold firmly to the thought (fikrah) and the method, and be patient as the Messengers (as) of firm resolve were patient.
Let us, O brothers and sisters, be among those who leave behind a mark that can never be erased, those who, with their words and their blood, pave the way for the Khilafah (Caliphate) and victory. For this path, though it may be long, is the path of honor and eternity. So let us strengthen our determination and prepare ourselves for the akhirah (Judgment Day) before Allah (swt). The Dawah to Islam is calling us, victory is drawing near, and the Ummah awaits much from us.
O brothers and sister, O carriers of the Dawah: listen to the wisdom reported from Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him): “Renew your passage on the ship, for the sea is deep; take much provision, for the journey is long; purify your deeds, for the Judge, Allah (swt), is All-Seeing. Lighten your Dunya load, for the mountainous waves are steep.” Yes, the sea is deep, the trials are fierce, and people are lost in confusion. However, you are upon guidance from your Lord, so make your ship strong and fastened with the ropes of iman. Carry in it only sincere deeds, for the balance is precise, and the Judge sees all.
Let us be people of high ambition, those who never settle for less, never compromise on truth (haq), and never seek comfort at the expense of the Shariah obligation. The person of true determination is the one who dedicates himself to Allah (swt) to establish His Deen. He sees the Khilafah (Caliphate) as a promise from Allah (swt), certain and true. He knows that victory comes with patience, and that the final success belongs to the righteous.
Allah (swt) says, [إِن تَنصُرُوا اللَّهَ يَنصُرْكُمْ وَيُثَبِّتْ أَقْدَامَكُمْ] “If you support Allah, He will support you and make your steps firm” [TMQ Surah Muhammad: 7]. Whoever Allah (swt) supports can never be defeated, and whoever Allah abandons, how could he ever succeed? Before us stands an Ummah longing for change. Before us are the blood and sacrifices in Gaza, the cries from Al-Masjid Al-Aqsa calling for help, and betrayal surrounding our lands from every direction. So, have we risen up for the Haq? Have we raised our voices against falsehood? Have we moved to support the Deen of Allah (swt)? Let us remember the saying of Al-Hasan Al-Basri, الدنيا ثلاثة أيام: أما الأمس فقد ذهب بما فيه، وأما الغد فلعلك لا تدركه، وأما اليوم فلك فاعمل فيه “This world is three days: Yesterday is gone with all that was in it. Tomorrow, you may never reach. Today is all you have, so do good deeds within it.” Yes, today is our day, so let us do good deeds! Let us make use of what remains of our lives. Let us work, for we are on the path of our Prophet (saw), and indeed, Allah never lets the reward of the good-doers be lost.
O brothers and sisters, O carriers of the Dawah: Yes, our Dawah is pure and clear like the light of dawn, free from confusion and impurities. Our message is not based on tribalism and nationalism, nor on ties of lineage, material interests, geography, or worldly gain. Our bond is Iman, our Deen is Islam, and our goal is the pleasure of Allah (swt), the One without partner. The Prophet (saw) said, «كُونُوا عِبَادَ اللهِ إِخْوَاناً»“Be servants of Allah, brothers.” This is his (saw) advice to us, and we hope to be among those who truly live by it. Indeed, Islam made brothers of the Ansar and the Muhajirun, and they became a shining example of sacrifice and selflessness.
O brothers and sisters: carrying the Dawah is not just a job or an intellectual pursuit. It is the mission of the Prophets (as) and Messengers (as). It means walking in their footsteps, inheriting their path. It is a great honor and a heavy responsibility. The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, «لَأَنْ يَهْدِيَ اللَّهُ بِكَ رَجُلاً خَيْرٌ لَكَ مِنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ حُمْرُ النَّعَمِ»“If Allah guides a single person through you, it is better for you than possessing fine red camels.” How many people today are in need of guidance? How many oppressed souls are waiting for relief through our hands?! Shall we be content to live without purpose?! To be just another number in life?! To have our lives pass and be asked: What did you do for your Deen and your Ummah?!
By Allah, no! Let us be among the first to act, among those who take initiatives, people who launch good deeds of impact and influence, not incessant complaints and complaining; those who build, and those who do not procrastinate, hesitate and wait.
Allah (swt) said,[قُلْ هَٰذِهِ سَبِيلِي أَدْعُو إِلَى اللَّهِ عَلَىٰ بَصِيرَةٍ [“Say: This is my path — I call to Allah with insight” [TMQ Surah Yusuf: 108]. It is a clear path, with vision and certainty; a Dawah to establish the Deen and fulfill Allah’s promise of a Khilafah (Caliphate) on the Method of Prophethood.
O brothers and sisters: we are not people who live only to eat and drink. We are an Ummah of mission, an Ummah of leadership, an Ummah of guidance. Let us choose to be like ‘Umar (ra), Saad (ra), Khalid (ra) and Ṣalaḥuddin (rh) … men who changed the course of history, leaving behind light, fragrance, and everlasting marks.
So, O listener of these words — hurry toward the forgiveness of your Lord. Do not listen to those who discourage you. Do not be distracted by the voices of doubt. Be a spark of hope, a light of guidance, and a building block in the great structure of Islam. The Prophet (saw) said, «إِذَا مَاتَ ابْنُ آدَمَ انْقَطَعَ عَمَلُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ: صَدَقَةٍ جَارِيَةٍ، أَوْ عِلْمٍ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ، أَوْ وَلَدٍ صَالِحٍ يَدْعُو لَهُ»“When the son of Adam dies, his deeds come to an end except for three: ongoing charity, beneficial knowledge, or a righteous child who makes Dua for him” (Narrated by Muslim). This hadith reminds us that what truly remains for a person after death is the good they have done during their life, their beneficial deeds of lasting impact. This world is the field where we plant for the Hereafter. What we sow today, we will reap tomorrow. So let us strive to leave behind beneficial knowledge for the Ummah, a blessed Dawah that benefits future generations, and righteous children who continue the path of truth. This is the real investment, one that never fails.
O Allah, make us among those who listen to the words and follow the best of them.
O Allah, make us among those who answer Your call, work to establish Your Deen, and remain steadfast until we witness victory with our eyes, or meet You while You are pleased with us. Ameen.
