Nouman Ali Khan – We Have Been Chosen

About this lecture

In this powerful khutbah, Nouman Ali Khan explores a set of profound ayat from the end of Surah Al-Hajj, tracing three groups addressed by Allah — all of humanity, the messengers, and the believers — and the unique responsibility placed on each. He unpacks the meaning of true appreciation of Allah, the nature of human weakness when we seek from creation rather than the Creator, and the extraordinary honor Allah bestows on believers by choosing them for Islam. The lecture culminates in an inspiring reflection on the "impossible job description" Allah gives the Muslims, and His immediate reassurance that He will make the path easy — just as He made it easy for Ibrahim (alayhi salam).
