Innal-hamda lillaah, nahmaduhu wa nasta’eenuhu wa nastaghfiruh, wana’oodhu billaahi min shuroori anfusinaa
wa min sayyi-aati a’maalinaa,man yahdihi-llaahu fa laa mudilla lah, wa man yudlilhu fa laa haadiya lah,wa ash-
hadu an laa ilaaha ilallaah, wahdahu laa shareeka lah, wa ash-haduanna muhammadan ‘abduhu wa rasooluh.

Truly all praise is due to Allah; we praise Him, seek His help, and askHis forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah
from the evils of our selvesand our bad actions. Whomsoever Allah guides, none can turn himastray. And
whomsoever Allah turns astray has none to guide him. Ibear witness that there is nothing worthy of worship
except Allah, theOnly One without any partner. And I bear witness that Muhammad isHis servant and (final)
messenger.
__________________________________________________________________________________________

It’s really hard getting hold of information such as
this. When you search on Google you’ll find stuff on
Khutba, i.e. Khutbas that were delivered, but not
on how to give a khutba (sermon).
Here’s a widely applied Khutbah delivery (its
the way I’ve seen qualified Imams give
Khutbah):
Step 1: Just before beginning the khutba, the
khateeb (the person giving khutbah) stands up
and gives salam to the people and sits down.
The mu’azzin (caller to prayer) stands up and
gives the azaan (call) to pronounce the beginning
of the khutba.
(Note: the first azaan has already been given)
Assalamu ‘alaikum wa rahmatullah wa
barakatuhu
(Note: Some Imam’s don’t do this since this is
recommended and not obligatory.)
Step 2: Khateeb stands up again and begins with
Khutbat-ul-Haajjah. This bit is always done in
Arabic. Here’s what you should say
Khutbah Haajjah
Al-hamdu Lillaahi nahmaduhu wa nasta’eenahu
wa nastaghfiruhu, wa na’oodhu billaahi min
shuroori anfusinaa wa min sayi’aati a’maalinaa.
Man yahdih Illaahu falaa mudilla lahu wa man
yudlil falaa haadiya lahu. Wa ashhadu an laa
ilaaha ill-Allaah wahdahu la sharika lahu wa
ashhadu anna Muhammadan ‘abduhu wa
rasooluhu sallalahu alayhi wa ala alihi
wasallam wa ba’ad.
(Praise be to Allaah, we seek His help and His
forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allaah from
the evil of our own souls and from our bad
deeds. Whomsoever Allaah guides will never be
led astray, and whomsoever Allaah leaves astray,
no one can guide. I bear witness that there is no
god but Allaah, the One, having no partner. And
I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and
Messenger).
Step 3: Invoke people to be God conscious by
reciting the ayats which has the words Taqwa in
it, such as:
Khutbah Ayats (O you who believe! Fear Allaah
as He should be feared, and die not except in a
state of Islam )[Aal ‘Imraan 3:103],
(O mankind! Be dutiful to your Lord, Who
created you from a single person, and from him
He created his wife, and from them both He created
many men and women, and fear Allaah through
Whom you demand your mutual (rights), and (do not
cut the relations of) the wombs (kinship) Surely,
Allaah is Ever an All-Watcher over you).’ [al-Nisaa’
4:1],
(O you who believe! Keep your duty to Allaah and
fear Him, and speak (always) the truth).’ [al-Ahzaab
33:70].”
End the ayats by reminding people:
Yuslih Lakum A’malukum wa yaghfir lakum
dhunubakum wa mayin yuti illaha wa rasulahu faqad
faza fauzan adheema. Amma Ba’ad
(He will direct you to righteous deeds and will
forgive you your sins. And whosoever obeys Allah
and His Messanger has indeed achieved a great
achievement.)
Fainna khairal hadeethi kitabullah, wa khairal hadi,
hadi Muhammad (saw), wa sharrul umur
muhdathatuha, wa kullu bida’atin dalaala, wa kullu
dalalatin finnar.
Step 4: Relate the contents of the Khutbah, choosing
topical issues that will address some of the issues of
the Muslims, and addressing them from a viewpoint
of advice.
The prophet (pbuh) and the companions always used
to choose the most important issues of their time.
Topics can be to do with ibadat (ritual) or mu’amalat
(societal).
If you’re not sure about the topic ask an Aalim
(knowledgeable person about Islam) or even the
people attending the khutba. Don’t let khutbas
become dry!
Then, end the first half with a du’a such as “Aqoolo
qawli hadha wastaghfirullaha li wa lakum”
Step 5: Take a break by sitting down for few
seconds. The break splits the khutba in two halves.
Step 6: Stand up again and praise Allah and send
salam on the Prophet(saw) “AlHamdulillah was
Salatu Wassalamu ‘ala Rasulullah”
Step 7: Deliver the second half of the khutba. Give
advice to people, call them to reflect and act on the
advice in the best possible manner.
Step 8: End the second half with durood (praises)
and du’a.
Allahumma salli ‘ala Muhammadin wa ‘ala ‘aali
Muhammadin, kama salaiyta ‘ala Ibrahima wa ‘ala
‘aali Ibrahima innaka Hamidun Majeed.
Allahumma barik ‘ala Muhammadin wa ‘ala ali
Muhammadin, kama sallaiyta ‘ala Ibrahima wa ‘ala
ali Ibrahima, innaka Hamidun Majeed.
[More durood and in arabic]
Some du’as:
Rabbana athina fiddunya hasanah wa fil akhirati
hasanah wa kina azabannar.
[Our Lord! Grant us good in this world and good in
the hereafter, and save us from the punishment of the
Fire.]
End with the words: Wa aqimissalah [And begin the
prayer]
So in Summary:
* Khateeb says Salam and sits down
* Muaddhin makes the adhaan
* Khateeb relates the contents of the Khutbah
* Ends the first half with dua’a
* Takes a break between two half of Khutbah
* Khateeb stands up again and praises Allah and
sends Salaam on the Prophet(saw)
* Does the second Khutba
* Ends with Dua’a
