Khutbah Aidil Adha: Preserving our Unity and Solidarity as the Foundation of a Religious Life

  • This uniformity among the pilgrims during the Hajj symbolises the unity and solidarity between Muslims that is intended by the Syariah.
  • Unity does not mean complete unity in beliefs or opinions. This is because if our unity and solidarity is based on humankind being unified in all things, it would have happened already. However, what we observe is that there is beauty behind the diversity and the differences that exist.
  • The most important thing we need to focus on is strengthening our religious institutions, or more specifically our mosques.
  • The second thing that we need to pay attention to is our maturity and wisdom when discussing religious matters.
