Usuli Institute Khutbah: "When Mecca is Empty, What Remains?"17 April 2020

With Mecca and Medina and the holy sites of Islam empty for the first time in centuries, what remains for Muslims and their prospects for the coming month of Ramadan? Dr. Khaled Abou El Fadl centers on the notions of 'adl (justice) and ihsan (goodness/beauty) as the defining characteristics of Muslims from the time of the Prophet before there were books of law or collections of hadith and traditions of the Prophet. He presents an early story of the Prophet Muhammad as a powerful example of living by 'adl and justice that hold countless lessons and wisdom for Muslims today. www.usuli.org.
