When Forgiving Is Complicated | Khutbah by Dr. Omar Suleiman

Forgiving can be really hard. For the Prophet ﷺ and the Sahaba, forgiveness sometimes meant navigating some of the most complex and devastating situations. What are 3 strategies we can take from them to navigate those difficult moments in our own lives?

The takeaways start at 12:08
1. Think about The redeeming qualities about that person
2. Understand the circumstances a personal message not to excuse it, but rather to understand
3. Focus on the greater reward

[faheema]

‘May Allah free us from being grieved by our own transgressions, May Allah allow us to get past all our grievances and grant us reward. May Allah comfort us in a way only He can comfort us’ Aameen 🤲🏼

I had been thinking about my sitiuation which is very similar to this and Allah swt sent this khutbah my way. SubhanAllah... My mind is much more clear now. Jzk ustadh.

[ruqayyaharogundade]

You're a wonderful person.
I just want you to know that i respect and admire the way you articulate Islam beautifully through your lectures. I enjoyed listening to The Sahaba series. May Allah reward u in abundance

[najiausman]

Omar Suleiman is so articulate with the most well composed khutbas. He is a leader in every sense of the word MashAllah!

In my Christian Bible study today a man asserted that forgiveness is unique to Christianity. I knew better but wanted to hear a direct teaching on the matter from Islam. Thank you for your teaching.
Perhaps Christianity differs in extending forgiveness to those who do not seek it, but I suspect this distinction to would vanish upon closer investigation. Forgiveness in those circumstances does not mean full reconciliation or trust it simply means you do not seek retribution.

[YaAllahswt]

May Allah swt bless that sign language ukhti

I was born in Chicago in 1942, and I love living in Queretaro, where i moved in 2021 at 79. Safer and 70%
less expensive, and all utilities included in my apartment and internet, maid and security. plenty of groceries delivered. Local friends see that I get takeout or anything I want. I am blessed. Over 60 years of coming to Acapulco etc.

Let go and let God.

Karma never loses an address.

You will reap what you have sown.

Send ALL criminals to war zones with shaved heads and faces.
