About this lecture

In this powerful khutbah, Shaykh Yasir Qadhi teaches two Quranic du'as from the tongues of the Prophets Ibrahim and Yunus that are to be recited in times of distress and calamity — "Hasbiyallahu wa ni'mal wakeel" and "La ilaha illa anta subhanaka inni kuntu minal dhalimeen" — explaining their profound meanings, the stories behind them, and why the Prophet ﷺ guaranteed a response for the second. In the second half, Shaykh Yasir reflects on the Chapel Hill shootings, offering moving reflections on the lives and legacies of the three young martyrs and calling the Muslim community to respond with patience, action, and a renewed commitment to the Sunnah.
