What does the concept of Dhikr (remembrance)

[maruf]

In several places in the Quran Allah (swt) stresses the importance of Dhikr, even placing it of greater importance than Salat.

In this Khutbah Jamal Harwood discusses this important subject with particular emphasis on Dhikr of the heart, and how it relates to the problems faced in contemporary Muslim society.

I couldn't open this....can you give a short summary?

[maruf]

I am sorry you could not hear it; he is connecting the concept of Dhikr to our actions. He says dhikr should be reflected in how we act in this life.

He says we care about the Muslims in Palestine because we remember Allah, that these are our brothers.

He says we should do dhikr by remembering what Allah tells us in the Qur'an about our Ummah, to work for its unity.

He says dhikr should not be just in the heart, but should move into our actions.

He says that the most important dhikr of Allah is to carry out the Fardh and avoid the Haraam.

Was-salaam,
