Title: Classic Speech Of The Week Volume 2
Post by: Lincoln on April 20, 2004, 07:17:13 PM
This is the last sermon given by the Prophet Mohammed )SAWS) before he passed on.

In the Name of Allah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful
Prophet Muhammad's (saws) Last Sermon

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[This sermon was delivered on the Ninth Day of Dhul-Hijjah 10 A.H. in the 'Uranah valley of Mount Arafat' in Mecca.]
After praising and thanking Allah the Prophet (saws) said:

"O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I know not whether after this year I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying very carefully and take these words to those who could not be present here today.

O People, just as you regard this month, this day, this city as Sacred, so regard the life and property of every Muslim as a sacred trust. Return the goods entrusted to you to their rightful owners. Hurt no one so that no one may hurt you. Remember that you will indeed meet your Lord, and that he will indeed reckon your deeds. Allah has forbidden you to take usury (interest), therefore all interest obligations shall henceforth be waived. Your capital is yours to keep. You will neither inflict nor suffer any inequity. Allah has judged that there shall be no interest and that all the interest due to Abbas ibn 'Abd'al Muttalib [the Prophet's uncle] be waived.

Every right arising out of homicide in pre-islamic days is henceforth waived and the first such right that i waive is that arising from the murder of Rabiah ibn al Harithibn.

O People, the unbelievers indulge in tampering with the calender in order to make permissible that which Allah forbade, and to forbid that which Allah has made permissible. With Allah the months are twelve in number. Four of them are holy, three of these are successive and one occurs singly between the months of Jumada and Shaban.

Beware of Satan, for the safety of your religion. He has lost all hope of that he will be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.

O People, it is true that you have certain rights with regard to your women but they also have rights over you. Remember that you have taken them as your wives only under Allah's trust and with His permission. If they abide by your right, then to them belongs the right to be fed and clothed in kindness. Do treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers. And it is your right that they do not make friends with anyone of whom you do not approve, as well as never to be unchaste. O People, listen to me in earnest, worship Allah, say your five daily prayers, fast during the month of Ramadhan, and give your wealth in Zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to.

All mankind is from Adam and Eve, an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a white has no superiority over a black nor a black has any superiority over a white - except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belogs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly. Do not therefore do injustice to yourselves. Remember one day you will meet Allah and answer your deeds. So beware: do not stray from the path of righteousness after I am gone.

O People, no prophet or apostle will come after me, and no new faith will be born. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand my words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the Qur'an and my Sunnah and if you follow these 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. Be my witness, O Allah, that I have conveyed Your message to Your people."

Supan Allah!  Allah al Raheem!  JazakAllahuKhiarun, Shukron.

That last speach makes me feel proud to be a Muslim and brings a tear to my eye.  My friend has a prayer and meditation corner in his room with a poster of those words on the wall in Arabic and English.

only to say what's up. I dont care either, I havent read what he posted. Im not the type of ass who says what I say if he makes a topic, but the second post of the topic is an "up" of the same poster when the day he originally posted is was like yesterday, somebody has to bitch, espacially if it's just a huge quote that was posted.

plus we all know youre his islam-brother, so it's like your duty to respond in such a topic when he begs for an answer (which he did with that "up." post).

The irony that you would care enough to say no one cares is overwhelming.

It is indeed beautiful. Upon my first reading of it, I became overwhelmed with emotion. It's difficult for others to understand, but I can see you relate to it.

PBUH!

As you should already know by reading my first post, I dont fuckin care about what youve posted in the first place. I just care about you pretending to think this board would want such threads, that's all.

How do you know what the board wants? The last time I made a Classic Speech thread it was quite well recieved. Therefore, there's a likelyhood another would be well recieved.

Jesus! It's all good if you dont make an "Up." - Post right after the starting-post. If you had thought it will be well recieved, why would you make such a "hey infinite please answer!!!"-Post in the first place?

I just dont like how you show off your religious believe if you didnt get that till now.

Fuck yes we already know you converted to islam and youve read alotta shit bout it and all, so fuckin what? you want a medal for that? may I have an autograph? tha fuck is that?!


if you want some recognition for converting to islam and being a confident muslim now, you should fuckin realize you wont get it here if it wasnt for infinite. try another place if youre that egotistical  ... maybe you get a medal there.

Relax. If you need to take out anger, don't use the internet. Try punching your pillow or something like that.

LOL for the great Malachi's sake, I didnt even insult you or shit, just putting how it is.
And you cant come up with anything better than telling me to relax! LoL now that says somethin!

Face it. Your behavior sucks.

Take me as an example. Me, Im an atheists.
Even though, I dont give me a weird nick, put weird Nietzsche Pics in my sig, quote Marx or make up threads pasting shit Feuerbach and others said.

But you.. you do. I have absolutely no problem with Muslims or something, who reads all of my posts here properly knows that. But I have a problem with you.
Why you think? As I already stated, it fucks me up how you show off your attitude. Fuck that.
Being a young white dude converting to Islam, I agree, pretty special, props for that. You can inform the board of that once or twice, but not acting like you do by now. I might be a lateral thinker too, but I wont make sure showing this in every post I make to all the people, I hope you got my point by now - if not dont respond.

You can put all that if you wanted to, just as I can put mine. Free countries we live in give us that right. The reason I mention Islam a lot, and am heavily influenced by it is because it's important to me. On the flip side, atheism doesn't affect your life in the same way because you don't think about "a lack of God" whereas I always am thinking of it. It's 2 different mindstates.

Dear son, I know you live in a free country (<-- LOL) and you have the right to behave like that. That's not want I appealed against. I just ciricized your behaviour the way it is. Sure you can keep it up nevertheless noone will sue you for that, but still I'll have my opinion and I wont shy confronting you with it. Have a nice day and dont forget to pray.
