Ismail ibn Musa Menk - Powerful reminder to #StaySafeStayHome

About this lecture

In this powerful Friday reminder delivered on 27 March 2020, Sheikh Ismail ibn Musa Menk draws on the Quran and Hadith to show that "stay safe, stay at home" is a concept rooted in Islamic tradition, citing narrations from Sahih al-Bukhari and Musnad Imam Ahmad about plagues, self-isolation, and patience. Using a well-known three-point Hadith on salvation, the Sheikh advises believers to control their tongues, remain at home, and seek Allah's forgiveness — while maintaining hope, strengthening family bonds, and making productive use of their time during lockdown.
