Makkah, October 23, 2026, SPA -- In his Friday sermon at the Grand Mosque today, Imam Sheikh Saleh bin Humaid urged Muslims to remain mindful of Allah, hasten toward good deeds, and seek the true contentment found in faith.

He stated that lasting peace and happiness stem from three pillars: accepting Allah as Lord, embracing Islam as a guide, and following the Prophet Muhammad as a role model. These foundations, the imam noted, grant believers inner stability to face life's challenges with patience and meet its blessings with gratitude.

He cautioned against a decline in faith, warning that it fosters despair, selfishness, and social division, and concluded by urging worshippers to renew their commitment to Islamic values and the Prophet's guidance.
