الواسع Be mindful of the Satan

Khalifatul Masih V elaborated the attribute of Allah named Al Waasigh الواسع during this Khutba. This attribute has a very wide meaning which includes one who knows everything and who provides for everything, who has endless mercy and who encompasses everything. The nature of Satan is that it scared man of the danger of poverty and urges him to do bad things. This urging of Satan keeps man away from spending his time and money to the cause of Allah and for other people and creatures.
It is very important that we should be mindful of the deceptions of Satan and keep ourselves on the path of Islam. For this, the most important thing is to keep time and attention for the prayers. Prayers keeps us in the circle of reception of mercy from The Almighty, so that even if we fall prey to Satan once a while, Allah's mercy will soon save us from that. Otherwise we will get so used to the ways of Satan and we will never realise it. We should strive to keep our taqwa, and pray expecting kindness from the abundance of God's mercy. May Allah help us on this path.
