“The Spanish come with their cannons,” Alibai said, “and we fear them. But a greater enemy is inside us—the belief that Allah is only wrath. No! He is Ar-Rahman , the Compassionate of this world and the next. Even now, as the sun climbs toward zuhr , His mercy falls like rain on the just and unjust alike. So be merciful to each other. Be merciful to the stranger. Be merciful to the one who wronged you. That is the sunna of Muhammad, peace be upon him.”

Among the Maguindanaon, the ulama hold a position of immense respect that extends beyond the mosque into the political and social realm. Research has documented . Their influence is such that they are often consulted on electoral matters, and their sermons can sway public opinion on critical issues. This power comes with a great responsibility: the khutbah they deliver must be meticulously prepared, grounded in authentic Hadith and Quranic exegesis ( tafsir ), and relevant to the congregation's needs.

This practice aligns with the broader Islamic principle that the khutbah should be accessible. The goal is to ensure that the congregation understands the message and is moved by it. For the Maguindanaon, delivering the khutbah in their native tongue is a powerful act of cultural preservation and effective communication. Sources confirm that religious leaders have recorded sermons, speeches, and lectures . This oral and written tradition ensures that Islamic teachings are not foreign concepts but are internalized through the mother tongue. This local adaptation highlights a key difference from purely orthodox textual study: the khutbah is a living, breathing tool of da'wah (propagation) that speaks directly to the Maguindanaon soul.

Ang hamon naman ngayon ay ang pagkalat ng mga pekeng hadith (Da'if o Mawdu') sa internet. Kaya naman, patuloy ang paalala ng mga nakatatandang guro na kumuha lamang ng kaalaman mula sa mga kilala at may kredibilidad na mga Islamic institution sa rehiyon. Konklusyon

Organizations like the Bangsamoro Darul-Ifta (Islamic Advisory Council) and local Islamic bureaus now publish compilation books of standardized Khutbas. These resources provide local Imams with verified Hadith citations translated accurately into the Maguindanaon language.

: The ultimate goal of a Khutba is to provide guidance and encouragement. A review should judge whether the tone is pedagogical and inspiring rather than purely academic. Selected Khutba | PDF | Allah | Muhammad - Scribd
