عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ عَلَّمَنَا خُطْبَةَ الْحَاجَةِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ نَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُهُ وَنَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا مَنْ يَهْدِهِ اللَّهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ ثُمَّ يَقْرَأُ ثَلَاثَ آيَاتٍ يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِهِ وَلَا تَمُوتُنَّ إِلَّا وَأَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ [آل عمران: 102] يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوا رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِي خَلَقَكُمْ مِنْ نَفْسٍ وَاحِدَةٍ وَخَلَقَ مِنْهَا زَوْجَهَا وَبَثَّ مِنْهُمَا رِجَالًا كَثِيرًا وَنِسَاءً وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ الَّذِي تَسَاءَلُونَ بِهِ وَالْأَرْحَامَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَيْكُمْ رَقِيبًا [النساء: 1] يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَقُولُوا قَوْلًا سَدِيدًا يُصْلِحْ لَكُمْ أَعْمَالَكُمْ وَيَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ ذُنُوبَكُمْ وَمَنْ يُطِعِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَدْ فَازَ فَوْزًا عَظِيمًا [الأحزاب: 70-71] ثُمَّ تَذْكُرُ حَاجَتَكَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) taught us the Khutbah of need, and that Khutbah was as follows: All praise is due to Allah, we seek His help, we ask His forgiveness, and we seek refuge in Allah from the evils of our own souls. Whomever Allah guides, none can misguide, and whomever He lets go astray, none can guide. I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is His servant and His Messenger. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would recite these three verses: {یَا أَیُّہَا الَّذِیْنَ آمَنُوْ اتَّقُوْا اللّٰہَ حَقَّ تُقَاتِہِ وَلَا تَمُوْتُنَّ اِلَّا وَأَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُوْنَ۔ یَا أَیُّہَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوْا رَبَّکُمُ الَّذِیْ خَلَقَکُمْ مِنْ نَفْسٍ وَاحِدَۃٍ وَخَلَقَ مِنْہَا زَوْجَہَا وَبَثَّ مِنْہُمَا رِجَالًا کَثِیْرًا وَنِسَائً، وَاتَّقُوْا اللّٰہَ الَّذِیْ تَسَائَ لُوْنَ بِہِ وَالْأَرْحَامَ اِنَّ اللّٰہَ کَانَ عَلَیْکُمْ رَقِیْبًا۔ یَا أَیُّہَا الَّذِیْنَ آمَنُوْا اتَّقُوْا اللّٰہَ وَقُوْلُوْا قُوْلًا سَدِیْدًایُصْلِحْ لَکُمْ أَعْمَالَکُمْ وَیَغْفِرْلَکُمْ ذُنُوْبَکُمْ وَمَنْ یُّطِعِ اللّٰہَ وَرَسُوْلَہُ فَقَدْ فَازَ فَوْزًا عَظِیْمًا} O you who believe! Fear Allah as He should be feared, and do not die except as Muslims. (Surah Aal-e-Imran: 102) O mankind! Fear your Lord, who created you from a single soul and created from it its mate and spread from both many men and women. And fear Allah, through whom you ask one another, and the ties of kinship. Indeed, Allah is ever, over you, an Observer. (Surah An-Nisa: 1) O you who believe! Fear Allah and speak words of appropriate justice. He will amend for you your deeds and forgive you your sins. And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly attained a great success. (Surah Al-Ahzab: 70) Then mention your need and requirement.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Before conducting the marriage (nikah), the one officiating should recite this sermon (khutbah) and briefly explain the meaning of these three verses.
In our society, Eid, marriage, weddings, and other joyful celebrations are regarded merely as occasions for enjoyment, amusement, and jest. This is why, on such occasions, the limits set by the Shariah are not observed: there is immodesty, severe intermingling of men and women, playing of bands and musical instruments, dancing, singing of indecent and obscene songs, and presenting such filthy speech over loudspeakers; men wearing gold jewelry, setting off firecrackers, and so on—these acts are considered the right of mischievous boys and girls.
However, the temperament of the Shariah is different. Just as the great joy of the two Eids begins with a specific prayer and sermon, similarly, on the occasion of marriage, before the nikah, the aforementioned sermon is recited to impart a lesson of piety (taqwa) and fear of Allah, and then the Shariah has clarified the permissible ways of expressing happiness on such occasions, and one should remain limited to these.
However, this sermon is not a condition for the validity of the nikah; the marriage is valid even without it, as the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam also conducted marriages without this sermon. Nevertheless, as much as possible, it should be observed; if there is haste or some other necessity, the nikah can be conducted without it.
