Delivered earlier today at the Surau at Kumpulan Media Karangkraf in Shah Alam, Malaysia, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan’s khutbah highlights some profound ayat from the beginning of Surah Al-Muddaththir which can be used as a blueprint for giving da’wah.
Ustadh explores the deeper meaning behind the command in the 4th ayah “… and purify your garments” – وَثِيَابَكَ فَطَهِّرْ
This isn’t just literally about cleaning our clothes. The “dirt” that we’re commanded to purify is also that which clings to us emotionally, spiritually, and socially as we experience the world and deal with the people in our lives. The stains of insult, anger, disappointment and ego gather like dirt from the road, and this ayah is a call to keep cleansing, again and again. Since da’wah requires a clean heart and presence, we can’t carry the weight of yesterday into every new encounter, and we can’t afford to wear the wrong emotional “outfit” when addressing the people.
With this command, the Prophet ﷺ had no option but to “clean his clothes” despite the ongoing insults and abuse from his enemies. This character training ultimately gave the Prophet ﷺ and his mission more power, making him undefeatable. Despite their words, they were unable to “stain” him ﷺ. Those hoping to give da’wah to take heed and embody this quality within themselves.
