During the Hajj 2025 sermon, Sheikh Saleh bin Abdullah bin Humaid, the Imam of Makkah’s Grand Mosque, delivered a powerful message emphasizing compassion, unity, and faith.
Addressing around 1.5 million pilgrims gathered at Mount Arafat, he prayed for the people of Palestine, calling for divine intervention against their oppressors. He supplicated, “O Allah, help the people of Palestine and destroy its enemies. Forgive the martyrs and grant healing to the wounded.”
The Imam urged Muslims to continue praying and giving zakat to support the needy while emphasizing neighborly care, kindness toward parents, and compassion for orphans and widows. He reminded believers to honor their promises, speak the truth, and uphold modesty, describing these as integral components of faith.
Sheikh Humaid also stressed that good and evil are not equal, encouraging Muslims to respond to wrongs with good, as this can transform enemies into close companions.
Expressing gratitude to the Saudi government, he acknowledged their efforts in facilitating the pilgrimage and caring for the pilgrims.
Following the sermon, pilgrims will proceed to Muzdalifah, where they will gather pebbles for the symbolic stoning of the devil on Friday.
