Who Own’s You?
Summary of Jummah Khutbah delivered by Imam
Today, the Imam talked about the term “Muslim Identity”. This term has changed it’s image to society from century to century but the underlying identity remains same whatever our society thinks about that identity.

We think that we own this and that but we little think about the Creator who owns me. He owns each and every cell of the body. Are we in love of the Owner of the stuff created by the owner? This is a great reminder.
The Imam mentioned that we don’t need to be Alem to follow Muhammad (pbuh). We need to be diligent in our study about Deen. Allah doesn’t want everyone to be Alem. He wants us to think and study our Deen. He mentions a Hadith where it is mentioned that the best sinners are those who constantly come back to repent and repent sincerely.
We need to allocate sometime from our daily life to study our Deen.
