OBSERVE THE
PILLARS OF ISLAM
Sermon: "Listen to me
carefully. Worship God and offer prescribed prayer, observe fasting in the
month of Ramadan and pay the poor-due."
Quran: "And establish the prescribed prayer, practice regular charity and
bow down with those who bow down" (2:43). "Oh you who believe,
fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you that you
may learn self-restraint" (2:183).
DUTIES REGARDING THOSE WORKING UNDER US
Sermon: "Oh people, be
mindful of those who work under you. Feed and clothe them as you feed and
clothe yourselves."
Quran: "Act kindly just as God treated you kindly" (28:77).
"God has favored some of you over their provisions to those whom their
right hand controls so that they become equal (partners) in it. Would they thus
disclaim God's favor" (16:71).
MUHAMMAD WAS THE LAST PROPHET
Sermon: "Oh people, no
prophet or messenger will come after me and no new faith will emerge."
Quran: "Muhammad is not the father of any of you men but he is God's
Messenger and the Seal of Prophets. God is aware of everything"
(33:40).
