Khutbah by Imam Rashied Omar: Fatherhood in Islam: 18 May 2012

Jumu’ah Khutbah – Fatherhood in Islam
Claremont Main Road Masjid - 26th Jamad al-Akhir 1433
As a sequel and follow up to last week’s khutbah on Motherhood, I would like to briefly reflect on the topic of Fatherhood in Islam.
We often hear speakers address the topic of the role of Motherhood in Islam but seldom do we reflect on the topic of Fatherhood in Islam. Now this understandable given the fact that the reality for most children is that their mothers play a far greater role in their nurturing and upbringing than their fathers.

Reflections on Death and the Afterlife
The topic for my khutbah today was prompted by the passing away of my dear father exactly five jumu’ahs ago. Since then I have been afflicted by a deep sense of loss and have been reflecting more deeply on the meaning of death and the afterlife.
In today’s khutbah I would like to share with you some of my reflections on how we as believers in a Compassionate and Gracious God, should view death and the afterlife.
It might be expedient to begin with a Qur’anic narrative which I have shared in previous khuttab.
According to the Glorious Qur’an, human beings are susceptible to two key moral or spiritual weaknesses. The first is that human beings aspire to be sinless and second, human beings do not like to confront death. These two human tendencies to seek infallibility and immortality are powerfully illustrated in the Qur'anic narrative of our ancestral parents,
