Delivering the Khutbah (sermon) is of great significance because it expresses what one thinks or means. The Khutbah must be clear and comprehensible to all. It must be free of probable words and meanings that could be misconstrued, or that could be interpreted in a way different from that intended by the preacher. In this Hadīth, ‘Adiyy ibn Hātim at-Tā’i (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that when the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) heard a man delivering a Khutbah saying: "Whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger is guided aright," "rushd" (right guidance) means: being on the side of the truth and what is right, "And whoever disobeys them is deluded," i.e., is wholly engaged in evil and goes astray from the path of the truth, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said to him, teaching him in a firm and scolding manner - which is one of the Prophet's teaching methods: "What a bad preacher you are! Say: And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger" not "disobeys them". Here, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) called his attention to be cautious about stating such things in sermons and attended occasions because the basic rule here is simplicity and clarification along with avoidance of symbols and signs, unlike education, as the lesser the words are, the better their memorization becomes. The Hadīth denotes that forbidding evil is to be carried out by those qualified to do so..
