The New Hijri Year – A Cambridge Khutba with Shaykh Abdal Hakim Murad

And whoever migrates in the path of Allah shall find abundant recompense and breadth.’  [Surah al-Nisa, Verse 100]
On the last day of the year the Sheikh describes some heroic events in the Sira of the Blessed Prophet, which is divided into the Makkan and the Madinan periods by the Hijra. Unlike the Exodus, which ended with divine punishment, the Hijra brings an age of forgiveness and hospitality and charity. The example of Asma bint Abi Bakr shows Islam’s generosity of spirit, and its complete rejection of the values of the Jahiliyya.
