I'm a Christian but I do relate to the media hysteria when it comes to purported 'Islamic' attacks. Well, we need love and more understanding in the world. Thanks to all Muslims who know the religion is peaceful.

When one hurts we all hurt. Although we are not with you physically we are one spiritually. We pray for all of the Mumin- the followers of Ibrahim (AS) and Prophet Muhammad (SAW) in every namaaz. I love you all my global Muslim family ❤️

Assalamu aleykoum, I am a French Muslima, born in France and still there. SubhanAllah, you can not imagine how the words of the Sheikh is comforting for the heart. May Allah reward you. We will be patient and we pray for all Muslims suffering around the world for their faith too. Thank you, I feel like the Umma is raising up a little elhemdulileh. We will be patient because we hope from Allah what they don't. We will be patient because we love Him, and they attack us because they hate the message. But hate can not be successful in front of love for Allah and His Prophète sws. BarakAllahufikoum

If only Muslims were united none of Wat is happening would have happened but the papers were lifted and the pens have dried May Allah the Almighty unite Muslims again yaa rabb 😥

May Allah protect all our brothers and sisters in France (my family lives actually there) and all the muslims in the world.

Waw I am so grateful that your khotbah is dedicated to my country. You are right, we are one ummah May Allah give you firdaous cheikh Omar and all the ummah

May Allah make our ummah strong to support our sisters and brothers in the manner our Prophet (SAW) taught us when he too suffered. InshaAllah. Allahu Ahbar. SubhanAllah. 🧕

May Allah grant all the muslim around the world be patient and use our intellect and wisdom to protect our deen. May Allah give us ease. Dua for brothers and sisters in France

Omg I'm from France and I'm a muslim. Thank you so much Dear Imam, may Allah bless you

Boycott French Products!

I'm so sorry that you are suffering in this way. I will pray for you, as a friend and a person of the book.

This man is great he just says it in the most articulate way ever.

In the end of times "You would see Hypocrites ruling countries, you would see the worst of people controlling market places". -Prophet Muhammad (salla lahu alaihi wa salam)

It was two women who attacked the Muslim women under the Eiffel tower. Important talk. I've been praying for Muslims in France as well. May Allah swt support, protect and make things easier for Muslim people in France. Some Muslim people in Qatar and Kuwait are starting a boycott of French products, so maybe more boycott of French products will help .

May Allah reward you abundantly and protect all Muslims.

No one has a great power except Allah..💕 Allah is always with us... Such a wonderful khutbah.. 💕 Jazakum Allah Khayrun Sheikh..

These are the Days of Patience, the days our Prophet (saw) warned us about.

Let's not forget the imam who was shoted several times when he left the mosque , was left in critical conditions and now Can no longer feel his foot finger . In France 1or 2 month before the sister were stabed and nobody in the press did an artical about nor did they Say it was terrorisme, they just said that the person who did it was not mentally stable ... Allhamdulillah

Thank you for supporting us! The situation is really scary and stressful now...Barak Allahu fik

Great Khutbah. another khutbah regarding in France is delivered by Shikh Yashir Qadhi so I encourage everybody to listen also after this.

It seems to me that EVERYONE holds some level of responsibility here, and not only France or Muslims. The problem is that every side only care to see themselves as victims. It's always unfortunate when innocent people are killed because of the foolishness of others. Nobody has any right to murder, not for religion nor national pride. Where it's warranted, every leader should hold their own people accountable for their actions. Unfortunately, no matter where i look, it's always about holding everyone else accountable. Nothing gets resolved like this. There is little progress in this way.

Thanks so much for this speech, it goes directly to my heart. I'm French and these days we feel hopeless, in all the media be it mainstream or others, under the pretext of advocating for secularism or fight against terrorism, politicians, philosophers, sociologists go out of their way to depict Muslims and Islam as being a threat and a problem, and we don't have like in other Western countries channels be it on TV or the radio to stand for us and speak on our behalf and most importantly to speak the truth. Anyway, I love you all my dear brothers and sisters all around the world. Stay steadfast upon the religion and do not despair.

Thank you for supporting us I'm really touched may Allah bless you

Thank you from France brothers and sisters. We are patient. Allah will help us inchAllah Salam 💌

Introduction to the Life of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) Birth and early life Muslims believe that Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was the man who was sent by Almighty God, Allah, as the final Prophet to the whole of mankind. He was born in Makkah in what is now Saudi Arabia around 570 CE. His father, Abdullāh died before he was born, and his mother died before he was six, so he was first brought up by his paternal grandfather `Abdul-Muttalib, then after his death, he was raised by his paternal uncle Abu Tālib. Abu Tālib was an important man in Makkah because he was the head of one of the most important clans. A clan was a group of families that were all related to each other. A group of clans made up a tribe. Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was born into the Hāshim clan which was part of the Quraysh tribe. This was the ruling tribe of Makkah. Muhammad was the last and the best of all the Prophets of Allah. The name Muhammad means “the praised”. Makkah was surrounded by desert. Desert conditions are very harsh, so life is only possible where there is water. Makkah had a source of water that was uncovered a few thousand years earlier when the wife of the Prophet Ibrāhīm (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) called Hājar settled in Makkah with her baby son, the Prophet Ismā`īl (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). This water source is known as the well of Zamzam. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) entered the family business and became a trader. He built up a reputation for being trustworthy, truthful and honest, so much so that he was given the nickname, Al-Amīn (The Trustworthy). He made good profits on his trading trips abroad. In 595 CE, when he was 25, he married Khadījah (may Allah be pleased be pleased with her), a wealthy lady, and he started a family with her. He was pleased with her, with his children and his trade. Religious situation The most concerning matter in Makkah was the fact that the people were worshipping other than Allah. They would call upon these idols, beseech them and supplicate to them - they took them as gods besides Allah. It is not that they denied the existence of the Lord and Creator, Allah. Indeed they believed in Him, they recognised that He was the Creator, the Sustainer, the giver of life and the bringer of death and the One who sent the rain and brought out the crops from the Earth. However alongside this they believed that the idols were objects of worship that brought them closer to Allah in rank. Allah said about the people of Makkah: “And those who take helpers (gods) besides Allah say: ‘We do not worship them except that they bring us closer to Allah in rank.’” (Qur’an 39:3) They Makkans claimed: “These idols are only intercessors between us and Allah.” The Prophet never agreed with this and found their acts to be an abomination against the Creator of the Heavens and Earth. It was known that the Ka`bah was built as the first Mosque by the Prophet Ibrāhīm and his son, the Prophet Ismā`īl for the worship of Allah alone. Indeed, the Hāshimī clan and therefore Muhammad himself (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) were the direct descendants of these two Prophets. But over the centuries they had left the worship of the One God, Allah, and started worshipping many gods in the form of idols. The people of Makkah had erected 360 idols in and around the Ka`bah, and they would go around it, whilst naked, clapping and chanting. So Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was commissioned as a Prophet, and a Messenger to call them and the rest of mankind to worship only Allah - and to abandon the worship of all other gods beside Him, whether stone idols, the saints, prophets or angels. The Qur’an states: “And I did not send any Messenger before you O Muhammad except that I inspired him to say: None has the right to be worshipped but I (Allah), so worship Me alone.” (21:25) Furthermore, Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not agree with the beliefs of the Christians in their worship of the Prophet Jesus (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) nor with the Jews in their beliefs that allowed them to change the commands of God. Muslims refer to the time before Revelation as “Jāhiliyyah” translated as “the days of ignorance”. This means that they were devoid of guidance, devoid of Revelation, drowned in polytheistic practices and evil deeds without any sense of morality. The world as a whole after the revelation cannot be referred to as Jāhilyyah because the guidance of the Qur’ān and Sunnah will remain till the Last Hour. The social situation The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was troubled by the way of life and the social condition of the people of Makkah. Some people saw themselves as superior to others. They oppressed the weak and indulged in racism and tribalism. Drunkenness, fornication, infidelity, gambling and violence were all common-place in Makkah. The weak and poor were down-trodden and women were treated very badly and had few rights. A particularly despicable act that is mentioned in Qur’an and Hadith was that the Quraysh would bury their first-born daughters alive out in the desert because they were ashamed in front of their tribes for having daughters!! Allah severely reprimanded them for this in the Qur’an and promised to take them to account for this unimaginable act of cruelty upon indefensible children

It is Allah's teaching that we turn our faces from, Allah had told us that those people won't accept us unless we forsake/denounce our identity and religion

May Allah talah help us, ameen

Islam is being prosecuted all over the world. Allah wants us to unite. Our political leaders have failed us. We need to make dua for Allah's direct intervention through solah and dua.

Interesting that all Islamists apologists aren't even talking about the beheading.

Great Khutbah.. May Allah protect Muslims all around the globe.. Ameen

Ya Allah May Allah protect and preserve the Ummah. May Allah allow us to honor Allah ,Islam, our communities and families in its fullness. Ameen

May Allah SWT bless you and keep you and your family safe. Ameen..

Salam Aleikoum may Allah bless you, for your information here in France most of politics and journalists deny the word “islamophobia” to them islamophobia doesn’t exist. The fact is that in France anti-semitism is a crime and islamophobia is just “a way to be against freedom of expression” sad country we living in ... Barrak’Allah w fik and may Allah protect our Ummah ❤️

اللهم صل على محمد وعلى آل محمد كما صليت على إبراهيم وعلى آل إبراهيم إنك حميد مجيد اللهم بارك على محمد وعلى آل محمد كما باركت على إبراهيم وعلى آل إبراهيم إنك حميد مجيد

Boycott French products everywhere. Dont buy nothing French....

I absolutely condemn the French Minister's statement, but why is everyone silent about Uyghurs being Tortured in Central East Asia ?

Thank you for speaking about this matter, Dr. Omar Suleiman.

As Muslims all our eyes should be up, not 5he middle east. The majority Muslim countries can't do anything for us. Only Allah can save us and He is on our side. Thank you to all the shiekhs and activists for creating awareness and telling us the prophetic ways of handling issues like these. May Allah protect and safeguard our brothers and sisters in France, China, India, Burma, Syria, Palestine, Yemen and in every part of the world who are being oppressed. Allaahumma Ameen Jazaakallahu khairan Shiekh

I'm an ordinary citizen here in Philippines. A Muslim citizen.I saw what happening to our brother in Islam around the world in social media and it hurts for me to saw that they are oppressed by majority.I think the best solution for that is to have a unity in OIC make a solution to stop the violence against our brother in Islam it is time to show to them that we deserve respect and peace in this world❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Masha Allah Shaikh, you are one of the present scholars who speaks out against the oppressors of our time. May Allah blessed you and your family. I wonder though, why are the rich Muslim leaders in Muslim lands do not voice out against the ever suffering of our ummah around the globe? Are money and power more important? Hope you can help educate us coz I'm sure it would benefit us all. Amin.

Thank you for this. I immediately shared it. May Allah swt reward you, and protect every suffering Muslim under tiranic and oppressive environment,ameen

Thank you so much for this you helped me lower my frustration

AlhamdulilAllah that we have you as an Imam to tell us the truth that we are so blinded by our governments. And all Arabian newspapers are just spreading trashy news.

Amazing lecture.

Thank you it warm my heart to know that our oumma stay connected 💕

*"Indeed, those who abuse Allah and His Messenger - Allah has cursed them in this world and the Hereafter and prepared for them a humiliating punishment." [Quran **33:57**]* *"And do not insult those they invoke other than Allah , lest they insult Allah in enmity without knowledge." [Quran **6:10**8]* This is the teaching of Islam. These ppl have exceeded their limit now.

They plan and Allah plan too and Allah is the best planner. (Quran)

Ma Shaa Allaah... May Allaah Guide This Ummah

May Allah keep the strenght imaaan and heart for those sisters and brothers who tested .

Thank you for remembering us (uyghur)

This needs more and more views. ❤️Our Prophet Our Honour❤️

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته Thanks a lot Imam for your care and you raising awareness during unprecedented times for us French Muslims. بارك الله فيك

May Allah protect you. Thank you for saying these much needed things.

Thank you so much!! We feel honestly that the situation is getting worse in France...

May Allah ease it on us

Thank you for this Khutbah. I was continually seeing news articles about the situation in France online and getting angry about it. Having and hearing a response to it like this--and from somebody with as calming a demeanor as Omar Suleiman--is really reassuring and makes it possible for me to look at the situation calmly. I needed this.

Ameen ❤️

There is no policy targeting Muslim communities in France. There is a society system in place since the French revolution and applies to every religion equally. This system is based on secularism, where everyone is free to believe in his religion and practise it. But the state should remain independant of any religion and its institutions should remain independant of any religion. That s why no religious signs is admitted in French schools for example or why the president can't forbid a journal to publish caricatures. Now some Muslims want to impose a change to this century old system to adapt to their religion and this is not going to happen.

Would love to have a French translation of this khutbah and share it with my foster family in France.

Ameen to all your precious duas. JazakaAllah khair

May Allah forgive all of our past, present, and future sins, Ameen.

I do agree with you but I would have liked to hear you talk a bit about the act of beheading the teacher as well. That act was wrong and must be condemed as well. I do however agree that Macron's statements are iresponsible and inciting hatred. Instead of condemning the wrong act he has gone ahead and condemned Islam. And this is the problem today. The top government officials should be aware of the impact of their words, their own reactions, and the consequences of such reactions.

May Allah protect all Muslims worldwide, amin.

Thankyou so much for speaking about this issue in france and world wide. Listening to Religious scholars like you calms our mind and gives hope as you reminds us about the jannah for holding to our deen. I feel scared on hearing what is happening to the muslim ummah around the world. May God help to reduce the suffering and help us to uphold our deen in all the worst circumstances and enter jannah when the judgement day arrives. Allahu akbar

Indeed the help of ALLAH is near

This has been on my mind all week.. Shukran for your khutba

Subhanallaah Just shedding tears, here I am in an environment blessed by Allaah to practise my deen without oppression, even though we're being oppressed in my country My heart is with all the Muslims across the globe facing all sorts of oppression, and difficulty Aameen to the sheikh's du'aa and those who prayed.

JazakAllahokheir it is like you live here in France. You describes our situation so well SoubhanAllah

Ultimately this leads to only one logical conclusion, and we know that, those of us who have been studying these issues over the decades, we need our own societies in our own lands and be under our own laws as commanded by Allah's messenger and shown by his most excellent and nobel example.

May Allah reward you shiekh

Maa shaa Allah Allah is the most wise theirs a reason why the Muslims are going through difficulties in this dunya because the whole world 🌎 now knows about Islam ☪️ yowmal qiyyama they won’t denie about it. This is my opinion Allah knows better

May Allah make it easy for his believers and grant us success over the disbelievers. Ameen.

4:50 : "In the name of prescribed secularism you literally have liberal fascism". So powerful and so true

Allah's help is near for those who obey HIM

May Allah Almighty save all Muslims suffering from all over the world. May Allah Almighty protect all Muslims bless with abundance of patience Aameen ya rabbal aalameen

Bro.s & Sis.s My heart with you.. Asking Allah to protect and level you up and Grand you with Jannah ❤️❤️💙💙💙
