In today’s khutbah delivered at Masjid Zabedah, International Institute of Islamic Thought and Civilization (ISTAC-IIUM), Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan takes us into a tense moment in the Seerah after the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah. Fighting paused but the conflict didn’t. It turned into a cold war of alliances, spying, and people smiling in your face while working against you.
That’s exactly why Surah Al-Mumtahanah hits so hard. Allah teaches the believers who to trust, who not to trust, and how loyalty in Islam is not based on tribe, politics, or family pressure. Ustadh unpacks the pledge of the believing women and shows how Allah turns it into a filter for real iman: no shirk, no theft, no betrayal, no killing, no slander, and no disobedience in what is right.
And then the Surah flips the spotlight back on us. Because “enemies” aren’t only outside the community. If we ignore corruption and disloyalty inside our own homes while pretending to care about the Ummah, we’re missing the entire point.
