Abstract
This manuscript titled, "Khutbah – Etikpe" is one of the weekly (Friday) Sermons composed and read by Sheikh Alhaji Abdurrahman Aboki, the Chief Imam of Federal Polytechnic, Bida, Niger State. As with all Islamic sermons, this one also opens with Basmalah and prayers for the Noble Prophet, thus:
"Bismillahir-RaḥmānirRaḥīm!
Ṣallallāhu ’Alā Man lā Nabiyya Ba’dahu!
Sālām!"
The sermon then goes on to address the subject matter for the week and finally closes with thanks to the Almighty Allah as follows: "Al-Ḥamdu Lillāhi Rabbil-’Ālamīn!"
