In this powerful khutbah, Dr. Omar Suleiman reflects on the divine promise from Surah Al-Hajj: “Verily, Allah defends those who believe.” This ayah was revealed at a time when Hajj seemed impossible—just as Al-Aqsa and the freedom of Gaza may feel out of reach today. What does it mean to be under Allah’s protection when injustice surrounds us? How does faith act as a shield when hope feels distant? Strengthen your trust, renew your faith, and remember: when you stand for truth, Allah stands with you.
