About this lecture

In this Jumu'ah khutbah, Ustadh Saad Tasleem addresses the realities of living in the digital age and how Islam's timeless principles of speech and accountability apply directly to our online behavior. Drawing on Quranic verses, hadith, and the example of scholars like Imam Malik, he urges Muslims to pause before posting, reflect on the permanence of online words, and build a legacy of positive, respectful engagement. Key takeaways include the danger of careless speech, the importance of modeling good character for our children, and the power of kind words to uplift others.
