In a recent khutbah recorded at Melbourne Grand Mosque in Melbourne, Australia, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan unfolds Surah Al-Fajr (89:15–20) and the word that shatters our assumptions. Many tie their relationship with Allah to their circumstances. When life opens up they say, “My Lord honored me.” When provision tightens they say, “My Lord humiliated me.” Allah corrects this thinking, then points to what true honor looks like: honor the orphan, urge the feeding of the needy, do not consume inheritance, do not love wealth obsessively.
The Quran links the fall of powerful nations to a mindset that still lives inside individuals today. Wealth and status can impress people, but they are not proof of Allah’s favor. Ease is a test. Hardship is a test. The measure is your integrity and mercy when the numbers in your life change.
