			Life is perceived in Islam as a blessing.
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			And it is a blessing when it is
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:06
			lived according
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:09
			to the will of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			It is a blessing when it is lived
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:14
			in the way of Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			A Muslim, a believer,
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			he perceives life as a blessing.
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22

00:00:33 --> 00:00:35
			because it is an amana. It is trust.
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:39
			Why? Because the more healthy we are, the
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:42
			better chances for us to obey Allah, to
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43

00:01:00 --> 00:01:01
			All praises belong to Allah.
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			We praise him. We seek his help, his
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			assistance in all our matters. We send peace
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:09
			and blessings upon our Habib, our beloved prophet
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:09
			Muhammad.
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			My brothers and sisters, welcome to Jumuah Khutbah
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17
			summary. The topic of today's Khutbah in Dubai
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			is
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:19
			the blessing
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			of long life.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:21
			SubhanAllah,
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:25
			life is perceived in Islam as a blessing.
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			And it is a blessing when it is
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:28
			lived according
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			to the will of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			It is a blessing when it is lived
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			in the way that is pleasing to Allah
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. It is a blessing when
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			it is lived in the way of Rasulullah
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:45
			Islam has given us the complete code of
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:45
			conduct
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:48
			in order to live our life in the
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			best fashion. SubhanAllah.
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:53
			This is the reason a Muslim, a believer,
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:55
			he perceives life as a blessing.
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:59
			Every single day when he wakes up, he
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:01
			thanks Allah He
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			praises
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			Allah You may wonder why? Because
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:07
			of the fact that he has got another
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:08
			chance, another opportunity,
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:09
			another
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			way to
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			please Allah
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:14
			to obey Allah
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:15
			to please
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			the maker that He has given us a
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:19
			beautiful life.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			Remember what the prophet,
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			he said, in the authentic hadith,
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:34
			Most of the people, they are neglectful about
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:37
			2 great blessings. Number 1, good health and
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			time. And SubhanAllah,
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:41
			both of them have to do with life.
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			We are told in Islam to take good
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			care of our health
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:48
			because it is an amana, it is trust.
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:51
			Why? Because the more healthy we are,
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:54
			the better chances for us to obey Allah,
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:57
			to fulfill our commands, to fulfill
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:00
			the needs that we have. SubhanAllah.
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:04
			This is the reason we as believers perceive
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:08
			long life as a blessing. Because the more
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:09
			life that you get,
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:11
			the more you will have
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:12
			opportunities
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			to please Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. So my
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:18
			brothers and sisters, let us make use of
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:21
			our life before we lose it. Let us
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:25
			use our time in this world before we
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:27
			lose it. We ask Allah to
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:31
			enable us to have that wisdom and understanding
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:34
			to invest in this dunya. So that insha
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:36
			Allah the fruits of it we can see
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			it right here in Duniya and in the
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:41
			hereafter as well. We ask Allah Almighty
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:43
			to grant well-being and goodness to His Highness
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:46
			Sheikh Hamad bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the president
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48
			of the UAE. Likewise, we ask Allah
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:50
			to bless all the rulers of the Emirates.
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			We ask Allah Almighty to bless this beautiful
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:55
			nation, the UAE from all kinds of evils
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:58
			and harms. We ask almighty to grant guidance
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:01
			to the entire humanity. We ask almighty to
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:04
			ease the matter, the suffering, the obstacles, the
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:05
			challenges,
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:08
			the difficulties as Muslims are facing across the
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:10
			globe. We ask Allah Almighty to grant us
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:11
			the companionship
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			of Rasulullah salal Islam
