Some points discussed during this Khuṭbah:

– “…It is not poverty that I fear for you, but that Allah will open up the riches of this world for you, and that will cause you to compete with one another… It will take you away from your religion or destroy you, just as it destroyed those before you.” (Ḥadīth)

– Clarification of the type of competing mentioned in the Ḥadīth.

– A further narration: “That which I fear after me is that Allāh will open up the riches of this world for you.”

– Most of the problems that arose after the Messenger ‎ﷺ were related to power, leadership, wealth, and greed.

– “Every nation has its trial, and the fitnah of my ummah is wealth.” (Ḥadīth)

– Blameworthy wealth is related to greed.

– Narration highlighting the way the Messenger ﷺ slept, showing the insignificance of the Dunya.

– “Live in this world as if you are a stranger or a traveller.” (Ḥadīth)

– Low Imān has resulted in the corruption of our goals and has had a major impact on our hearts.

– Examples of the blameworthy characteristics that occur when the importance of the Dunyā is raised.

– Statement of Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله explaining the consequences of the above.

– “And march forth in the way [seeking] forgiveness from your Lord, and [for] Paradise as wide as are the heavens and the earth, prepared for Al-Muttaqūn.” (Surah Āl-‘Imrān 3:133)
