Khutbah: Preparing to Face Winter Storm 'Jonas'

Moosaa Richardson reminds us about the importance of fearing Allaah as potentially disastrous weather approaches. A Quranic passage about how the civilization of 'Aad thought massive clouds heading their way were mere rain clouds, yet they were destroyed by them. Why do we feel safe and secure, when our Prophet (may Allaah raise his rank and grant him peace) would become very uncomfortable as clouds and winds approached?! In America, we have audacious atheists around us shouting into the heavens, "Let this God bring down His punishment upon us, if He truly exists!" which is hauntingly similar to the wicked speech of the people of 'Aad before they were terribly destroyed. A Friday khutbah recorded at al-Masjid al-Awwal in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (USA) on 1437.04.12.
