The text of the Friday sermon today
Praise be to God, we praise him, seek help, repent to Him, seek forgiveness, believe in Him, trust in him, and seek refuge in him from the evils of ourselves and the bad deeds of our actions, and we bear witness that there is no god but God alone who has no partner and that our master Muhammad is His servant and Messenger ﷺ. As for:
Water is a blessing from God is great and a gift from the Mawla is very much, with life that lasts and the beings live and the earth is green and grow from every joyful pair, and it is the origin of all creatures. He wills ۚ God is capable of everything} [النور: ٤٥]As it was narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah (may God be pleased with him), he said: I said: O Messenger of God, if I see you myself and my eyes are good, then tell me about everything. He said: “Everything was created from water.” (Imam Ahmad Musnad, and Al -Mustadrak of the Ruler and Sahih Al -Dhahabi).
Water is more expensive than the king, and it confirms that the water is more precious than the king. If you prevented this drink, you were buying it?! He said: Half of my property. He said: Drink God Almighty, O Commander of the Faithful. When he drank it, he said: I ask you, God, if I prevented her from leaving your body, what were you buying her exit?! He said: With all my property. Ibn al -Sammak said: There is no good in a king that is not equal to a drink of water. Harun Al -Rasheed cried. !! A king that extends from China to the east to the Atlantic Ocean in the west is not equal to a drink of water .. !!!
And because of the importance of water in all the affairs of our lives, God made him have no color, taste, or smell !! If water had a color, all the colors of living organisms would form water, which forms most of the ingredients of the neighborhoods, and if the water is a taste, all foods would be one taste, which is the taste of water, so how is it like it?! {Water with one water, and we prefer each other in eating, if there are verses for people who are reasonable} (Al -Raad: 4), and if the water had a smell, all foods will be with one smell, so how is it like it?! But the wisdom of God in creation required that the water that we drink, and the animal and plants are watered with fresh water, that is, without color, taste, or smell. Do we have the right to the Creator the right of this blessing only?! And the wisdom of life did not stop! But look at this different water, this is the ear water, and the eye water is salty, and the mouth of the mouth is fresh! The mercy of God required that he made the ear water very bitterness; To kill insects and small parts that enter the ear, and make the eye water salty; To preserve her because her fat is corrupted, her navigator was a maintenance for her, and made the mouth of the mouth fresh; To realize the taste of things as they are, because if they were in this capacity, I would refer them to a non -nature, really we can only have to say: Glory be to God !!!
Therefore, Islam called us to clean water by maintaining its purification and purity, and not to throw dirt, waste and residue in them, considering that water is the basis of life, and his orders ﷺ noted that he should care in stagnant water, for Jaber on the Messenger of God ﷺ: And the mission of travel, the trouble of the path, and perhaps because the sun does not enter it, so it does not purify it, so it becomes the subject of epidemics and the place of diseases, and in the hadith: “None of you urinate in permanent water that does not take place and then wash it” (Agreed).
He also forbade excessive ablution, as an Arab came to the Prophet ﷺ asking him about ablution? I see ablution three times three. Then he said: “This is the ablution, so whoever is more than this has been offended, transgressed, and injustice” (Ibn Majah and Al -Nasa’i with a good chain of transmission).
On the authority of Aqil bin Abi Talib, he said: The Messenger of God ﷺ said: “It is sufficient for ablution, and from the washing is a saa.” Then a man said: Approx. ”(Ahmed and Ibn Majah). And if this is about worship, what do you think without worship? !!!
God Almighty has promised us more if we thank the blessing of water, and to torment if we waste it in its use, where he said: {And when your Lord gives permission, if you thank you, I will increase you and if you disbelieve that my torture is severe} (Ibrahim: 7), then water is a blessing and if you use it in obedience and preserved it, I thanked the grace and performed its right, so you will receive mercy and forgiveness. You wronged yourself and disbelieved in grace and did not fulfill its right, so you entered into the circle of injustice and unbelief.
