Eid Al-Adha Khutbah - Pertinent takeaways from Prophet Muhammad’s (ﷺ) Last Khutbah (Sermon)

On the 25 Dhul Qa’dah the Prophet (ﷺ)left Madinah and headed for Makkah to make what was to be his last Hajj. And at the Farewell Speech the Prophet (ﷺ)sat on his camel and addressed the congregation:

 

‘O People, no prophet or messenger will come after me and no new faith will be born. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand words which I convey to you. I am leaving you with the Book of Allah (the Quran) and my Sunnah (the life & the actions of the Prophet (ﷺ); if you follow them you will never go astray. All those who listen to me shall pass on my words to others and those to others again; and may the last ones understand my words better than those who listen to me directly.’

 

On this great day of Eid Al-Adha 2020, the speaker reflects upon the last Khutbah (Sermon) of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and discusses key takeaways that are pertinent for today.
