His Eminence Sheikh Abdul-Muhsin ibn Muhammad al-Qasim, may Allah preserve him, delivered the Friday khutbah entitled, “Opposing the Practices of Jahiliyyah,” in which he talked about the greatest favour ever given to humankind, namely Islam, referring to the need to know about Jahiliyyah (the days of ignorance before Islam) in order to realize the truth and virtue of Islam. He then referred to the ways in which this great religion of Islam opposes the beliefs, customs, and habits of the polytheists and the People of the Scripture (the Jews and Christians), providing textual evidence to this effect from the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him.
