A collection of Friday Khutbas (Sermons) delivered at UofT by the Muslim Chaplain, Amjad Tarsin.

Friday Sermons

After fifty people were martyred during Friday Prayers in Christchurch, New Zealand, many people are trying to make sense of the tragedy. 

This Khutba focuses on a hadith of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ related to divine decree (qadr) and the importance of always trusting in and turning to Allah ﷻ.

Friday Sermon: "Honoring Women: Reviving a Noble Sunnah."

The Friday Sermon delivered on March 15th, 2013 at the University of Toronto.

The path to God can be daunting unless a person keeps themselves in good company. The Prophet Muhammad (God's peace and mercy be upon him) said, "A person is upon the religious [state] of their close friend, so choose your close friends carefully." This sermon discusses the centrality of good company (suhba) in one's setting out towards God.

Divine Breezes: Preparation for Rajab & Beyond

The Muslim Chaplaincy at the University of Toronto engages Muslim youth by providing an inclusive space for them to foster a meaningful Muslim identity, enriched and supported by quality educational and counseling services.

Our vision for a Muslim chaplaincy is to have an organization that facilitates quality educational, social, and spiritual services to support Muslim youth on a campus setting.

We envision that a Muslim chaplaincy will have a very positive impact on the course of Islamic leadership in North America. By having access to a wave of committed, well educated, balanced, nurturing, and culturally relevant role models, young Muslims will no longer feel at a loss when they face challenges of faith and identity. Rather, the chaplaincy will be a presence that inspires confidence and healthy spiritual development in Muslim youth.
