In the second verse of Surah Talaq, the 65th chapter of the Quran, Allah says "وَمَن يَتَّقِ ٱللَّهَ يَجْعَل لَّهُۥ مَخْرَجًۭا and whoever has taqwa of Allah, He will make a way out for him." In this khutbah, Imam Khalid Latif will discuss this verse and how we can maintain and increase our taqwa in hopes of using it as a key to finding the openings needed to make our way out of the challenges in our lives.
