The 3 Root Causes of All Sins - Hasan as-Somali

Here is a khutbah delivered recently by Hasan as-Somali (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) at Germantown Masjid.  

It was based on the following statement of Imām Ibn al-Qayyim (rahimahullah Ta'ala), who said:

❝The origins of all sins are three: arrogance, which led Iblis to where it led him; the desire for more, which expelled Adam from Paradise; and envy, which provoked one of Adam’s sons against his brother. Whoever is protected from the evil of these three sins has surely been safeguarded from evil. Disbelief stems from arrogance, sins from greed, and tyranny and oppression from envy.❞

The following PDF was posted on his (hafidhahullah Ta'ala)'s official Telegram channel:
Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever invites to guidance will be rewarded like those who follow him in the guidance are rewarded, and that will not decrease the reward of those who have followed him." [Collected by Imām Muslim]
