First sermon
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
May God’s peace, blessings and mercy be with you
Indeed, all praise is due to Allah, we praise Him, we ask for His help and forgiveness, and we seek refuge in Allah from our own evil and from the evil of our deeds guided by Allah. No one can lead him astray, and whoever leads him astray, there is no guidance for him.
I testify that there is no god but Allah SWT, there is no partner for Him, and I testify that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, and there is no prophet after him.
O Allah, bless your chosen Prophet, his family, his companions, and those who follow them in goodness until the Day of Judgment.
Allah SWT says in His Holy Book
O you who believe, fear Allah as they should be feared, and do not die except as Muslims.
O people, fear your Lord who created you from one soul, and created from it soul mates, and scattered from them many men and women, and fear Allah for whom you ask, and your womb. Indeed, Allah is the Watcher over you.
O you who believe, fear Allah and speak good words, which will make your deeds good and forgive your sins. And whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger, he will achieve a great victory.
As for after
The congregation God bless!
Be grateful for the pleasure of breathing and sipping water, so that we can straighten our backs to worship Allah ﷻ. We should be grateful for these blessings by following the path of piety until we achieve happiness in this world and the hereafter. We cannot take that path except because Allah ﷻ has sent the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as Messenger Amen. So pray for him, surely Allah ﷻ will reward us tenfold.
Life trials and citizenship issues
The reality that cannot be avoided at this time is the increasingly difficult economic situation. The price of basic commodities has increased, thereby eroding the income of Muslims. Congregation, know! Of course, one of the causes of these difficulties is because of our sins. Allah ﷻ says in the Qur’an surah As-Shura verse 30,
And whatever misfortune befalls you, it is because of the work of your hands. And He forgives you a lot.
“And whatever misfortune befalls you is the result of your own hands, and Allah forgives many people (your mistakes).” (QS. Ash-Shura: 30)
This means that this difficulty is only a small part of the impact of our own injustice. There are still many injustices that Allah ﷻ forgives and does not manifest in the form of disaster. Even though this is not true, of course this situation is one way for us to increase our level of faith.
This price increase is all a decree from Allah ﷻ
The increase in the price of goods is the destiny of Allah ﷻ; Even though there could be reasons for actions by society or the government, this is very complex so we cannot completely blame anyone. This kind of thing even happened when the Prophet ﷺ was still directly leading the Muslims.
Narrated from Anas bin Malik May god bless you, he said, “Prices (of goods) during the time of Rasulullah ﷺ used to rise. People said, “O Rasulullah, the prices have risen. Therefore, set a price for us.”
Then the Prophet ﷺ said,
Indeed, Allah is the Most Giver, the Most Obtaining, the Most Giver of Sustenance, the Most Giver of Sustenance, and I hope to meet my Lord, and none of you will look for me because of tyranny of blood or property.
“Verily, Allah, He is al-Musa’ir (The person who sets the price), al-Qabid (which narrows one’s fortune), al-Baasith (Who gives sustenance), ar-Razzaaq (The Almighty Giver of Sustenance) and indeed I hope to meet Allah in a condition where no one among you sues me for wrongdoing of blood and property.”
The Prophet ﷺ gave the news that Allah ﷻ is the one who has the right to determine prices. Allah ﷻ too Al-Qabidh And Al-Basith, The One who narrows and expands sustenance. However, he ﷺ not only mentioned the news that Allah ﷻ seemed to be hands off, but he also gave the news that Allah ﷻ is Ar-Razzaq, The Almighty is the giver of sustenance, so don’t worry about this situation. This shows that even the best leaders are unable and have no right to set commodity prices. So the Prophet ﷺ hoped that no one would bring this injustice to him.
An increase in the price of goods does not affect a person’s livelihood
The important part that we should believe in is that our sustenance has been determined by Allah. The portion of sustenance that Allah determines will not increase or decrease. Even though Indonesian society is being shaken by the increase in prices of goods, it will not shift our share of sustenance at all.
Allah ﷻ says,
If Allah had provided sustenance to His servants, they would have committed transgressions on earth
“If Allah had provided sustenance to His servants, they would have surpassed all limits on the face of the earth.”
Allah ﷻ knows that if His servants are given more sustenance, they will certainly exceed their limits.
But He sends down as much as He wishes. Indeed, He is All-Knowing, All-Seeing of His servants.
“But Allah sends down what He wills according to measure. Indeed, He is All-Knowing (the condition of) His servants and All-Seeing.” (QS. Ash-Shura: 27)
Allah ﷻ determines sustenance according to its conditions Al Khabir, The Almighty knows the details again Al-Bashir, see available statements. Of course God Al-Hakim, The Most Wise, will not oppress His servants with less sustenance than they should. In fact, Allah ﷻ is able to do it.
The purpose we were created for is to worship, regardless of the conditions
Actually, there is no obligation for Allah ﷻ to provide abundant sustenance to all of us. Because Allah ﷻ is a Ruler who is not responsible for His actions. However, Allah ﷻ still gives worldly pleasures to His servants, even though it is His servants who are required. Servants – that is all of us – are obliged to do one thing, namely worship Allah ﷻ, and that is the only goal. In that sentence famous, Allah ﷻ says,
And I did not create jinn and humans except to worship what I want from them in the form of sustenance and what I want them to eat. Indeed, Allah is the Giver of Sustenance, the Owner of Power, the Preserver.
“We did not create jinn and humans except for worship. I do not want sustenance and food from them. Indeed, Allah ﷻ Ar-Razzaq (Giver of Fortune) and Possessor of Absolute Power and Almighty Power.” (QS. Adz-Dzariyat: 56-58)
Allah ﷻ does not need our worship, nor does he demand that we give sustenance and food to Allah ﷻ. In fact, it is Allah ﷻ who guarantees our sustenance, and nothing can prevent Allah ﷻ from giving it. So, ask ourselves, “Have we maximally served Allah ﷻ?”
May God bless the Great Qur’an for me and you and benefit me and you with the wise verses and dhikr it contains. I say this and I ask God for forgiveness for me and for you and for all Muslims for every sin, so ask Him for forgiveness. Indeed, He is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Second sermon
Praise be to Allah for His mercy, and thanks be to Him for His success and gratitude. I testify that there is no god but Allah alone, without partners, out of respect for Him. I testify that Muhammad is His servant and messenger who calls for His pleasure. O Allah, may peace and blessings be upon Muhammad and his family, friends and brothers.
Tactical steps to deal with rising prices
So the solution, ladies and gentlemen, is:
First: Strengthen our determination to worship and make this our main focus at this time.
Second: Work as best as possible, because our efforts to work are part of the intended worship. And this sermon does not tell you all to give up, but instead invites you all to be enthusiastic about pursuing the sustenance that has been destined by Allah ﷻ.
Third: Be grateful that we have Allah ﷻ Ar-Razzaq, so that our minds can focus on work, and not be preoccupied with measuring our fortune. We leave everything to Allah ﷻ.
The Prophet ﷺ said,
O people, none of you will die before he has completed his sustenance.
“O people, indeed you will not die until your share of sustenance is complete.
So don’t delay your sustenance, fear Allah, O human.
Therefore, do not feel that your sustenance is being hindered and fear Allah, O human.
And be generous in your requests, take what is permitted and leave what is forbidden.
Look for good fortune, take what is halal and leave what is haram.” (HR. Al-Baihaqi in Name al-Kubra NO. 9640, ratified by the Judge and approved by Adz-Dzahabi)
Indeed, Allah and His angels blessed the Prophet. O you who believe, bless him and grant him peace.
O Allah, forgive men and women who believe, men and women of Islam, the living and the dead
O Lord, do not dominate us because of our sins – who do not fear You in us – and do not have mercy on us
Our Lord, do not let our hearts stray after You have guided us, and grant us mercy from You. Indeed, You are the Giver.
O Allah, show us the truth as truth and give us the ability to follow it, and show us falsehood as falsehood and enable us to avoid it.
O our Lord, forgive us and our brothers who preceded us in the faith, and do not harbor hatred in our hearts towards those who believe. Our Lord, You are Most Gracious and Merciful.
Oh God, respect Islam and Muslims
O Allah, help our Muslim brothers and the mujahideen in Palestine.
O Allah, strengthen their faith, give peace to their hearts, and unite their ranks.
O Lord, destroy the disbelievers and polytheists.
O our Lord, give us goodness in this world and goodness in the hereafter, and protect us from the torment of hellfire, and protect us from the torment of hellfire.
Wa shallallahu ‘ala sayyidina Muhammadin wa ‘ala Analisi wa shahbihi ajmain. Akhirud da’wa ‘anilhamdulillahi rabbil ‘alamin.

PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
