The reason behind choosing the subject of this sermon is the plight in Gaza:
Dear brother, there is a reason behind today's sermon, and I would like to tell you about. A delegation of notable scholars from Gaza paid me a visit two weeks ago in my house saying that many Palestinian radio channels broadcast my lectures twice or thrice daily, and that all Palestinian parties welcome my opinions, and I hope they are up to their expectations. Because of the plight whose consequences are known only by Allah, they asked me to deliver a sermon about Muslims' unity, and it will be published in websites and will be broadcast repeatedly on many radio stations in Gaza. Thus, this sermon is an answer to their request.
"Let the Palestinians kill one another" are the words of our enemy:
Dear brother, I read what went on in the ministerial meeting of the Israeli Cabinet, in an article that is published on a website. It is reported in the article that "It is exciting to know the reason behind the shift in the Israeli stance of launching a military action against people in Gaza Strip. They canceled it, because the majority members of the government and of the Israeli intelligence agencies opposed such an action for the time being. The ministers and the leaders of the intelligence agencies see that Israel will be committing a grave mistake in case it launches this action at the time when the Palestinians fight one another." According to the information mentioned in the article, the most successful and great military action against Palestinian resistance groups will never achieve better results than the results of the Palestinian fight against one another. Therefore, they recommended that the military action should stop, and that they should leave the mission of annihilating Palestinians to the Palestinians themselves. These points were discussed in the meeting of the Israeli Cabinet, and they took a sudden decision of ceasing the wide-ranging military operation against the people in Gaza, waiting for the Palestinians to do the dirty job for them.
People belong to one of two groups:
By Allah dear brother, there have been times when Muslims and Arabs held their heads up high feeling proud of these Palestinian resistance groups who did well (in the past), but now we are ashamed of seeing these Muslim parties point their weapons at one another.
First of all, I would like you to pay attention to what I am about to say, and I am addressing our brother in Gaza. People in the Sight of Allah are two groups despite all their differences, backgrounds, religions, belongings, races, sects, school of thoughts and orientations. The first group includes the people who believe in Allah, who abide by His Method and who are good to His creations, and thus they will be saved and will gain happiness in the worldly life and in the Hereafter. The second group, on the other hand, includes the people who disbelieve in Allah, who believe only in the worldly life, in materialism, in fulfilling desires and in occupying positions, who have turned their backs to Allah's Method and who mistreat Allah's creations, and thus they will be miserable and will be doomed in the worldly life and in the Hereafter.
When two Muslim parties fight one another, regardless of their differences, belongings, colors, schools of thought and orientations, one of them, and I am not accusing any party per say, is after the worldly gains not the Hereafter. This party should know that it is addressed in the following Ayah:
﴾ Their enmity among themselves is very great. ﴿
This is a stigma within the Ummah (the Islamic nation). By Allah the only Deity, the resistance groups were about to reap the fruits of their resistance and were about to stop the Jewish arrogance. Bear in mind that the Hereafter encourages us to cooperate with one another, whereas the worldly life makes us fight one another.
Is it rational to fight one another while we are living the nightmare of (in Palestine) being tyrannized, oppressed, killed, destroyed and separated by the wall? Is it rational to fight one another while we are oppressed, humiliated, killed, and while we are having our houses wrecked, our farms destroyed, our wells chocked and our products damaged by the enemy who is dancing out of joy? Hence, dear brother, this is the hot issue that we should tackle.
The conflict between Divine Assignment and man's disposition:
Dear brother, pay attention to the following point: Man's disposition makes him long to collect money, to feast his eyes on women's beauty, to gossip about people's honor and to stay in bed all the night (instead of getting up for Al-Fajr Salah). On the other hand, the Divine Assignment ordained upon man, entails spending money on the needy and poor, lowering the gaze, holding the tongue from gossiping and waking up for Al-Fajr Salah. The price of Paradise ispaid because of such a contradiction between man's nature and the Divine Assignment.
I am just giving you a brief idea about the contradiction between man's nature and the Divine Assignment. There are other differences: The human nature is individual, whereas the Divine Assignment is collective. Accordingly, the more obedient to Allah you are, the more cooperative with sh3er you will be. On the other hand, the more disobedient to Allah you are, the more competitive (negatively) with sh3er you will be. Being cooperative is an assignment, which can also be manifested in spending money, lowering the gaze, waking up for Al-Fajr and holding the tongue from gossiping, whereas selfishness is a disposition. Hence, whoever wants to live at the expense of other people, to become rich by impoverishing them, to be in control by oppressing them and to live secured by terrifying them is self-centered and his selfishness contradicts the Divine Assignment.
A call to stop fighting one another:
Dear brother, it is unacceptable, unreasonable and impossible for the believers to have conflicts between them, because a battle between the two parties that support the truth can never be, since the truth is one. On the other hand, the battle between the truth and falsehood never goes on, because Allah is with the party of the truth. Unlike these two battles, the battle between two falsehoods never ends.
Dear brother, due to the faith of believers, due to the danger that is awaiting all Muslims and due to the common interests, brother should stop fighting each other.
Dear brother, Muslims all over the world are proud of the resistance groups which pushed down our enemy. However, by Allah the only Deity, the enemy these days is on cloud nine, because, as they said in the meeting I mentioned earlier no military action in Gaza will achieve better goals than the ones achieved by the fighting between Palestinians. Hence, beware of being a Muslim who gives cold shoulder to Muslims' concerns, who builds his glory over the wreck of Muslims, who seeks his worldly fortunes at the expense of Muslims' reputation and who stops belonging to this religion. I am not excluding anyone of my warning; in both parties there are such people who have chosen the worldly life over the Hereafter and who have preferred their own interests to Muslims' interests and their reputation.
An eternal inevitable conflict between good and evil:
Dear brother, undoubtedly life is full of believers and Kuffar (disbelievers). The believers are those who believe in Allah, whereas the Kuffar are those who do not, the believers believe in the Hereafter, while the Kuffar don't. Moreover, the believers build their life on giving, but the Kuffar build their lives on taking only, and the believers love other people and sacrifice themselves for their sake, while the Kuffar are selfish and they hate those who are around them. Such binary oppositions are unavoidable in the worldly life.
Allah could have created the first party (the believers) on a different planet, in a different continent or in a different era of the one of the Kuffar. However, due to Allah's Will the two different parties live together, including the believers and the disbelievers, the sincere and the insincere, the materialists and the one who stands by values, the right and the wrong and the just and the unjust. According to the Divine Wisdom, both parties live together, so there will always be an everlasting battle between the truth and falsehood.
Worldly life is based on trials:
Imam Ash-Shafi'i was asked, "Should we ask Allah to test us or to make us firmly adherent to His Orders and Prohibitions?" He answered, "You will never be firmly adherent to Allah's Orders and Prohibitions until you are tried." The Almighty Allah says:
﴾For sure We are ever putting (men) to the test. ﴿
This is the worldly life; it is based on trials. Allah says:
﴾Do you think that you will enter Paradise before Allah tests those of you who fought (in His Cause) and (also) tests those who are As-Sabirin (the patient ones, etc.)? ﴿
Dear brother,
﴾Do people think that they will be left alone because they say: "We believe," and will not be tested. ﴿
Allah has decreed that we are put to the test in the worldly life. Hence, You will be tried with whatever you are granted and whatever you are deprived of. You will be tried when you are granted power and when you are deprived of it, when you are granted money and when you are deprived of it, when you are rich and when you are poor. Allah says:
﴾For sure We are ever putting (men) to the test.﴿
The truth strengthens by challenges:
"You will never be firmly adherent to Allah's Orders and Prohibitions until you are tried." One might ask, "Why has Allah decreed that both parties live together? Why is the battle between right and wrong eternal?" In my opinion- Allah knows best- the reason is that the truth will not be stronger unless it faces challenges. If only the other party, who plot against Muslims, knew that their plot, pressure and war would bring goodness to Muslims, they would be deeply hurt.
The best favor the other party has done us is awakening Muslims and getting them close to one another. Thus, the other party participates, in one way or another (just like the devil), in drawing people closer to Allah. Of course, they will never be rewarded for that role.
Dear brother, whatever Allah decrees will happen and whatever happens is due to Allah's Decree. Keep in mind that Allah's Decree is linked to the absolute Wisdom which leads to the absolute goodness. Thus, the absolute evil does not exist in the universe, because it contradicts Allah's Existence. However, there is relative evil, which is indicated in Allah's Words:
﴾And it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allah knows but you do not know. ﴿
﴾Verily, Fir'aun (Pharaoh) exalted himself in the land and made its people sects, weakening (oppressing) a group (i.e. Children of Israel) among them, killing their sons, and letting their females live. Verily, he was of the Mufsidun (i.e. those who commit great sins and crimes, oppressors, tyrants, etc.)* And We wished to do a favour to those who were weak (and oppressed) in the land, and to make them rulers and to make them the inheritors, And to establish them in the land* and We let Fir'aun (Pharaoh) and Haman and their hosts receive from them that which they feared. ﴿
Painful reality: Our enemies are united unlike us (Muslims):
I keep repeating the painful fact that our enemies who follow falsehood and seek the worldly life cooperate with one another though they have only 5 % of the common grounds among them, while our neighboring Muslims counties or we do not. We invoke Allah to save us from all sectarian, racial and doctrinal conflicts, which are the only trump card in the hands of Muslims' enemies, staring with Fir'aun who was the enemy of Musa. Allah says:
﴾Verily, Fir'aun (Pharaoh) exalted himself in the land and made its people sects, weakening (oppressing) a group (i.e. Children of Israel) among them, killing their sons, and letting their females live. Verily, he was of the Mufsidun (i.e. those who commit great sins and crimes, oppressors, tyrants, etc.).﴿
This card has been used by the contemporary Fir'aun (The US President whose prime minister said once, "having 200 counties in the world does not suit us, so I would like to see them 5000 countries". Our enemies say that out loudly. Furthermore, they brag about the so-called constructive chaos which can be seen in Iraq. They intend to cause a war that does not leave anything alive, and because of which 100 unidentified victims had to be killed every day. The west is planning to see such chaos in Lebanon, after they have seen it in Palestine. We invoke Allah one more time to protect our unity from mischief, make us as one heart, keep us in one direction, to be with Allah and to have enough awareness to burn the trump card our enemies have.
Cooperation is most needed among Muslims:
Our faith, our interests, our sense of honor, our patriotism and our morals entail that we should cooperate now. We should not at this time of hardship raise any controversial issue, hoping that the Almighty Allah keep protecting us, as Muslims, and protecting our good country. The Islamic countries have conflicts despite the 90 % of the common grounds they have. Moreover, they keep looking every now and then for issues which definitely separate them from each other. Believe it or not, a 900 Kilometer long wall, which will cost 24 billion dollars, will be built between two Islamic countries!
Enmity and hatred:
Dear brother, we are in dire need of reconciling with Allah and turning back to Him. I will not beat around the bush, but I just want to refer to the following Ayah which is applicable to every two persons, couples, brother, partners, neighbors, believers, families, kin, people, tribes, sects, clans, nations and cultures. Allah says:
﴾But they have abandoned a good part of the Message that was sent to them. So We planted amongst them enmity and hatred till the Day of Resurrection (when they discarded Allah's Book, disobeyed Allah's Messengers and His Orders and transgressed beyond bounds in Allah's disobedience),﴿
We, Muslims, love each other and lower the wing of humility to one another as much as we obey Allah. Abu Bakr said to Umar, "Give me your hand so that I offer allegiance to you". Umar said, "What land on which I might ever settle and what sky under which I might ever take shade if I become the ruler of a nation, one of its members is Abu Bakr." Abu Bakr said, "O Umar you are stronger than me" to which Umar answered, "O Abu Bakr, you are better than me, so I will put my strength at your disposal, and we will cooperate". Hence, we should cooperate. Actually, cooperating with Muslims marks your faith, your responsibility for finding a solution to Muslims' problems and your good conduct. I have been once to a university in Florida, and I read an outstanding wisdom there about the virtue of abdicating. It says, "Abdicate (your position, duty or responsibilities) to your fellow brother for achieving the public interest. Be one hand and do not disagree with one another". It is a virtue for every believer to lower the wing of humility to his honored brother, and there shouldn't be a problem about that.
We fight one another while the enemy is watching us with ecstasy:
Dear brother, the entire world is watching us, and our enemy is dancing out of ecstasy. We never thought, not even in our wildest dreams, that the members of the Palestinian resistance groups, who humiliated the enemy, would fight one another. The enemy took a sudden decision to cease his military action because whatever military campaign to invade Gaza will not achieve the goals that will be achieved by Palestinians themselves while fighting one another. He said (the Israeli Prime Minister), "Let them kill one another". Furthermore, the enemy provides them with weapons and inciting one party against the other. Till when will we stay like this?
The right is on our side, we are the people of the two Divine Revelations (the Quran and Sunnah) and the crystal-clear truth that is shining like the sun is ours. Yet, we are asleep and we fight one another. Do you know the things that prevail in the west? They are forbidden lusts, mischief, sins, AIDS, lesbianism, homosexuality, wife swap, 23 million pornography websites and 400 pornography satellite channels. The west aims at corrupting people, and unfortunately, we are fulfilling this goal.
Dear brother, the Almighty Allah says:
﴾But they have abandoned a good part of the Message that was sent to them. So We planted amongst them enmity and hatred till the Day of Resurrection (when they discarded Allah's Book, disobeyed Allah's Messengers and His Orders and transgressed beyond bounds in Allah's disobedience),﴿
Dear brother, your faith, your sense of honor, your morals, your patriotism, your belonging to this Ummah and your awareness that the battle of this Ummah against falsehood is eternal, should stop you from fighting one another. We are fighting one another while our enemy is awaiting, lurking and working on annihilating and impoverishing us. Why are we doing them such a favor? As if we are saying, "Don't worry about your goals, because we can achieve them for free, so save your money, your efforts and your weapons." Neither Allah nor other Muslims respect us anymore. Do you know that the yyy punishment that is mentioned in the Noble Quran for the believer who deliberately kills another believer?
Dear brother, I am speechless towards our situation. All we can do is making Du'a to our Lord to lift this burden, to guide these fighting groups to the Right Path, to grant them wisdom and to bring them back to their religion gently. I am neither acquitting nor praising any party, but I am saying that in both parties there are people who seek the worldly life instead of the Hereafter, and they are after the worldly gains and money. Let alone, they are helping the enemy. What is the likeness of the one who sells himself to the enemy of Muslims? Believe me, he is just like a cheap toilette paper with which the dirtiest waste is wiped, and then it is thrown in the bin. We are an Ummah to whom the Divine Revelation has been sent, and we are favored over all other nations through this great religion. Allah says:
﴾You [true believers in Islamic Monotheism, and real followers of Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah (legal ways, etc.)] are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind; you enjoin Al-Ma'ruf (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam has ordained) and forbid Al-Munkar (polytheism, disbelief and all that Islam has forbidden), and you believe in Allah. ﴿
Unless we enjoin Al-Ma'ruf (goodness) and forbid Al-Munkar (evil doing), we are not considered the Ummah of Da'wah to Allah, nor are we considered the chosen one (the best of people ever) whom Allah has promised to give from His Great Bestowal.
We should defeat sectarianism and the so-called constructive chaos:
Dear brother, if you have nothing in hands to help them, remember that you can help them by making Du'a, so please invoke Allah in your prayers to make reconciliation between the Palestinian parties, and ask Him to bring them back to the Right Path gently, to spare their blood and to grant them wisdom and right decisions. Allah says:
﴾To whom Hikmah is granted, is indeed granted abundant good.﴿
You (people of this country) are also required to be keen on the unity of this country, and to burn the trump cards the enemy of this Ummah has, especially inciting the sectarian conflicts. Our enemy says it out loudly, "We want constructive chaos and we want to divide every country of the Ummah to ten sub-countries after stealing all their natural treasures."
Oil reserves in Iraq is considered the fifth largest proved crude oil reserves in the world, it has more than 450 billion barrels and its oil is the cheapest to extract in the world. Extracting one barrel costs only 80 cents in Iraq, whereas it costs $8 or more in any other country. This is why the USA invaded Iraq by her armies supported by other foreign countries. The trump card the west has is inciting the sectarian conflicts, and our only weapon against them is to burn this card by cooperating and coexisting with one another peacefully.
When the Prophet, peace be upon him, entered Al-Madinah Al-Munawwarah, he signed the oldest treaty of coexistence in which all people of different backgrounds are included. He, peace be upon him, said:
((The people of Yathreb are one community, they help one another against those who attack Yathrib and they live peacefully with one another.))
We, Muslims, are sailing in one ship, so whoever scuttles the ship will cause the drowning of all Muslims. If we prevent him from doing that, we will be saved (including him), but if we give a cold shoulder to his action, we will be doomed (including him), because we are sailing in one ship, and we have common interests.
Hence dear brother, understanding one another, as Muslims, settling our disagreements and keeping ourselves united have become obligations not only virtues. I invoke the Almighty Allah to lead us to the Right Path. I say my words, and I ask the Forgiveness of Allah, the Most Great, for me and for you. Dear brother, ask His Forgiveness, so that you will be forgiven, as those who are forgiven will be the successful ones.

The second Khutba:
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, and I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah; the Protector of the righteous. And I bear witness that our Prophet Muhammad, peace and upon him, is His Servant and Messenger, the one with noble morals. May Allah's Peace and Blessings be upon him, his Folks and Companions.
You should prepare a suitable environment for students:
Dear brother, the former Israeli Prime Minister said once, "Arabs don't read, but if they do they don't understand, and if they understand they have short memory". May Allah dishonor his face for these words. We should read and educate ourselves.
The exams are coming soon, so I would like to draw your attention to some important points. Your children, dear brother, are your trust, so prepare a suitable environment for them to study, cancel all your commitments during the two weeks of the exam, call off all your ceremonies and give them a comfortable set up for studying. Also, stay up at night to follow up their study, to fulfill their needs and to wake them up to attend the exam. I have been a teacher for more than 30 years, and in these years, hundreds of students failed the exam because they overslept and missed their exams. Why could their parents not wake them up? Where were they?
Our foremost duty now is to stay awake for the sake of our children and to prepare a suitable environment for them to study. Let me reproach those who don't have students in their houses, and so they turn up the radio disregarding the students, the patients who have pains and other people who have problems. Therefore, I hope that all people turn down the radios and participate in preparing the suitable environment for the students. The Almighty Allah says:
﴾And make ready against them all you can of power﴿
Science is power:
Science is a powerful weapon. The war started between two people but now it is between two devices and two minds. Nowadays, a despicable pilot flies a fighter that has radar screen providing the pilot with a satellite map to see the houses one by one. He focuses the target on the chimney of one of these houses, for instance, and shoots the missile destroying the house (while the people are in it). He is a cowardice; using state-of-the-art weapons makes him void of heroism, sense of honor and courage, and it makes the situation (of innocent people who are being killed) grave. Allah says:
﴾And make ready against them all you can of power﴿
The broad meaning of Jihad:
The war now is between two minds, so there is Jihad of a different kind. The problem with us is that whenever we hear the word Jihad, we think about Al-Jihad Al-Qitali (fighting against the enemies of Islam in Allah's Cause). We overlook the need of this Ummah to people who live for the sake of Allah more than its need to people who die for its sake. Be a beacon and be a prominent person by learning and educating. I am addressing the youth, for all hopes are pinned to you. Your Ummah hit bottom rock and its horse is suffering a serious setback, its sword lacks sharpening and its scientists are falling behind. Thus, all our hopes are pinned to the youth.
1- Jihad An-Nafs:
The first kind of Jihad is Jihad An-Nafs (striving against ownself (evil ideas, lusts and desires)). It is enough for the Muslim to act upon Allah's Order, to lower his gaze from looking at what is forbidden, to control his tongue, to seek Islamic knowledge, to resort to believers (for help, advice, etc.) and to belong to the believers. This kind of Jihad is for the sake of Allah, and it is ordained upon Muslims in the following Ayah:
﴾As for those who strive hard in Us (Our Cause), We will surely guide them to Our Paths (i.e. Allah's Religion - Islamic Monotheism).﴿
2- Al-Jihad Da'awi (Calling to Allah):
The second kind of Jihad is manifested in calling people to Allah. It is enough for the Muslim to understand the Quran, to attend religious sessions and to learn the Quran. This kind of Jihad is a great one, and Allah mentions it saying:
﴾ But strive against them (by preaching) with the utmost endeavour, with it (the Qur'an). ﴿
It means strive against them with the Quran.
3- Al-Jihad Al-Bina'i:
The third kind of Jihad is Al-Jihad Al-Bina'i (the constructive Jihad). Allah says:
﴾And make ready against them all you can of power, including steeds of war (tanks, planes, missiles, artillery, etc.) to threaten the enemy of Allah and your enemy,﴿
At present, no party on earth dares to fight against a country that owns nuclear weapons, though it might never use it.
﴾to threaten the enemy of Allah and your enemy,﴿
Hence, dear brother, we should build our Ummah on a solid ground and should be self-sufficient, for "Woe to the nation which eats the crops that it doesn't plant". In fact, we import everything we eat, everything we wear, every machine we use and even the weapons with which we fight. As a result, our decision is not made by us. Therefore, dear brother, before we jump to Al- Jihad Al-Qitali, we should be done with Al-Jihad Al-Bina'i.
A seven-year-old boy asked me once, "What should I do?" I said, "Excel at your school and study attentively in order to perform Al-Jihad Al-Bina'i. Also perfect your job, develop it and excel at your study". This is the only hope we have in hands. Our enemies are accusing us of being the Ummah which doesn't read.
We are in dire need of Du'at who are doctors, architects and IT engineers. I do not admire those whose education are solely religious, for the world is stronger now, and the enemies of Islam are skillfully impoverishing misleading and corrupting Muslims. The other party is clever to such an extent that it do not attack Islam, but rather it works on destroying it from within. For instance, it sets up unacceptable Islamic examples, gives a backward image of the Islamic intellect or claims that Muslims think that the earth is a flat disk-shaped.
Our battle is very fierce, and you should believe me when I say that there is a third world war that has been declared against Islam. Our hopes are pinned to the youth and on their success at school. You should be concerned about the Ummah's distress, and the minute you stop being selfish and start mending the flaws your Ummah has, you will become very exalted in the Sight of Allah. Be responsible for finding solutions to the problems of this Ummah, given our Ummah is in need of the youth. We see ourselves insignificant when we are compared to those who died for the sake of Allah, but at the same time we are in desperate need of those who live for the Cause of Allah.
General advice:
Dear brother and students, study hard. Dear parents, prepare a suitable environment for your children to study. Dear neighbors, turn down any sound that might negatively affect our student's performance. Some men honk the horn of their cars asking their wives to come down from their parents' houses. Whoever behaves like this lacks elegance and decency. Unlike him, the believer is kind, gentle and decent.
Dear brother, till when will we keep bragging about being the best Ummah although we are not (for the time being)? The bitter truth is better thousands of times than the comfortable delusion.
Supplication:
Dear brother, I will supplicate, so please say Amen:
O Allah, we beseech You to show us the way of righteousness together with those to whom You showed it; and to give us good health together with those whom You have healed; and to be our Protector, as You are of those whom You protect; and to bless what You have bestowed on us; and to save us from the affliction that You have decreed –for You rule with justice and You are never judged; and he whom You protect shall never be humiliated, and he whom You make Your enemy shall never be elevated, blessed and dignified are You. We thank You for what You have decreed, we ask You for Forgiveness for our sins, and we repent to You.
O Allah, please lead us to the good deeds, for no one leads to them but You; please lead us to the good conduct, for no one leads to it but You; please make us do well in the Deen, which is our dignity, make us do well in our worldly life, in which we dwell and grant us safety on the Day of Judgment for it is our Final Destination. O Allah, please supply our life with all good things and make our death a rest from every evil.
O our Master, the Lord of all Worlds, please make us desire what You have made lawful and reject what You have made unlawful, make us by Your benevolence independent of all sh3er and make our obedience to You turn us away from our disobedience.
O Allah, by Your Mercy and Benevolence, raise high the word of truth and this Deen, grant triumph to Islam, dignify Muslims, humiliate polytheism and polytheists and lead the rulers of Muslims to what pleases You, O Lord of the Worlds, as You are the only One Who is capable over His decreed.
O Allah, protect the Islamic countries from the plotting of conspirers and the planning of haters, You are the Most Generous. O Allah, bring Muslims together and grant them guidance, wisdom and cooperation, O Lord of the worlds.
O Allah, grant victory to your believing servants in the west and east and in the north and south. O Allah, guide our ruler to that which pleases you and make his retinue of honest people and ministers, O Lord of worlds, as You are the only One Who is capable over His decreed and Who responds to our Du'a.
