آخر خطبة للنبي في المسجد

During his final illness, the Prophet ﷺ came to the mosque for the last time — supported on each side by Abbas ibn Abd al-Muttalib and Ali ibn Abi Talib, feet dragging, head wrapped against the fever — and mounted the pulpit for a final address to the congregation. The address was distinct from the Farewell Sermon at Arafat; this was a personal farewell to the Medinan community, delivered while gravely ill. The Prophet ﷺ offered public restitution for any wrong he had done: 'If I have flogged someone's back, here is my back — let him take retribution. If I have taken someone's property, here is my property — let him take it.' A man stood and requested repayment of three dirhams; the Prophet ﷺ paid them without question. He then told the community he hoped to meet them at the Hawd — the Pool — and that he would be there for those who came to him. He warned them against making his grave a place of worship: 'Do not make my grave a place of worship. Allah's curse is upon those who take the graves of their prophets as mosques.' He repeated the emphasis on prayer and the rights of those whom the right hands possessed. The companions who witnessed the address understood it as a farewell. The Prophet ﷺ who had addressed them from the same pulpit for years at the Friday prayer now came supported on two sides to say: if I have wronged you, I offer the restitution. Then he descended. He never returned to the pulpit. He died four days later. The last formal address from the pulpit of the Prophet ﷺ was a declaration of accountability — the same scrupulousness in departure that had defined his entire prophetic life. The final address from the pulpit — the offer of restitution, the warning about the grave, the promise of the Pool — carried the same honesty and scrupulousness that had defined the Prophet's ﷺ entire public life, from the first announcement at Safa to the last words spoken from the same minbar from which he had built the community.
