Usuli Institute Khutbah: "The Entire Philosophy of Existence in a Paragraph," 17 July 2020

Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl delivers the Friday khutbah and jumu'a prayer at The Usuli Institute (www.usuli.org). Dr. Abou El Fadl receives countless questions by email each day from people he does not know. From their questions, he can immediately know their level of awareness, knowledge, biases and intellectual influences. He explains the critical importance of asking the right questions and presents the example of the companion of the Prophet Muhammad asking the Prophet Muhammad how he would describe himself. In a beautiful recounting of this forgotten hadith, we learn the entire philosophy of existence in a paragraph.
