(Mina, 8th zul-Hijjah 1431, after Zohr prayers) Sheikh Riad gave a lecture on the topic of why do/should we worship Allah swt. Here are the highlights:
Who is Allah
- Reference to Aayet el-Kursi – Never sleeps, nor takes a briefest absence as in shallow sleep.
- Gives all bounties to us.
- Only worthy of worship due to His immense attributes, Immense bounties, Immense mercy.
Why do we worship
- Because it is His right upon us, due to the bounties He has given us. Gratitude, therefore, is the essence of worship.
- We need to please Him so that we get Paradise.
- And finally, it is the sustenance to our soul. Our hearts find peace in His worship. It is like food for our spirit.
