Assalamu alaikum, and Rahmatullah, and Barakatuh

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim, and Rahmatullah, and Salatu, and Salamu ala Rasulillah, and ala Ali, and ashabi, and Jumayin

We praise Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, we send blessings and salutations upon Muhammad, and all his companions,

and may Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala bless them all without exception, and may Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala bless every single one of us,

and grant us all success in this beautiful month of Ramadan,

may Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala grant us a deep understanding of the deen,

and may Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala make us from those who can act in a way that will please Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala,

not in a way that will displease Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala.

My brothers and sisters, it is absolutely important for us to realize the power of unity,

if we would like to save ourselves from being crushed by the enemy, it is important for us to unite,

and it is important for us to realize the minor differences that we do have among us,

should not be a cause for us to begin to hate each other, to the degree that we cannot even stand up for each other.

May Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala protect this Ummah,

Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala speaks about this in many places in the Quran,

and in one of them verse number 103 of Surat Al-Aman, Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala says,

Wa at-taasimu bi-habilin la hijamiya wa la tafar-raqu

Hold fast to the rope of Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala, and do not split,

do not split, do not dis unite and do not leave that particular rope.

What is the rope? The Quran that was revealed by Allah, Subhanahu wa Ta'ala,

and the deen that was brought by Muhammad, Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam,

hold fast to it, and unite. This must be the uniting factor.
