AbdelRahman Murphy – Unity

			Today's topic is unity, Allah's power and tada it says in a beautiful verse and so with LM Ron,
chapter number three, verse 103, where our testing will be heavily Lehi, Jimmy on well as a follow
up to that hold all of you hold tight to the rope of Allah and do not deviate. The rope of Allah
here is an interesting image, it's you get the image of this, this this singular, salvation, this
moment where people can grasp onto something, and to save themselves from the doom of falling off of
something. And what's even more beautiful about this image is that when you think of a rope, it has
no inherent value. But when that rope is being used to save somebody, it becomes the most important
		

			thing in the room. The Mufasa rune the scholars of Tafseer, they say that the rope of Allah,
according to the companions of the Prophet, so I don't know, is the Quran, that the way that we can
ensure that we do not have division, and we're not talking about difference, because difference is
part of our religion, different opinions, different fic, rulings, different this and that different
perspectives, those are all part of our faith, but division, to wedge in between us to have no
relationship to have no love for each other. This is something that must be remedied. And Allah is
telling us that in order to remedy this problem of division, we have to hang on together, to the
		

			rope of Allah stromatolite the Quran is the thing that brings us together. And you find this you
find that in gatherings, where people who have very different lifestyles, very different outlooks
and perspectives on how to live, when they come together and study the book of Allah. It's almost
like everything about them, that's different melts away. And the one thing that remains in that room
doesn't matter what gender that person is, the color of their skin, how much money they make, what
they do for a living, if they're married or single have kids or don't. Everybody is just reading the
Koran. And that's the thing that unites everybody. If you've been to Mecca, Medina, you've seen
		

			this, the Quran circles, young and old, right? People from from Saudi people from across the world
all there to remember the book of Allah, Allah to Allah continues with Quran Yama to La Jolla
Alikum. It's quantum adda and for Allah for being able to become for us back. Don't be messy he
Juana that he says, Then remember Allah is reminding us the favor of Allah, that you were enemies,
right? If you think about the seed of the Prophet, so Sanlam so many of the believers, the Sahaba
that we look up to, we respect we love their stories, we try to be like them. So many of them at
some point were enemies of one another. Even some of them were like deep enemies of the Prophet
		

			Muhammad Sallallahu. Some of them think of Ahmad Ahmad rhodiola, run. The third study for after the
Prophet SAW sudden, right after a bucket. He was the next one. Think of Ahmed how he woke up one day
to go and assassinate the Prophet Mohammed Al Salam. And what happens that same day he becomes a
believer, someone who believes in the Prophet Muhammad SAW someone's message. And later on one of
the closest companions of the Prophet SAW Selim, and even his daughter is one of the wives of the
Prophet Muhammad SAW Selim think about the transformation that occurred Allah Tala saying this is a
blessing. It's a blessing that your heart that was so full of division and hatred can be united by
		

			the favor of Allah to Allah. For us back to miniapp Mattia one. And so you became brothers and
sisters, by His grace and His mercy. Then he says, Welcome to my Dasha, who floats a minute now and
figuratively, metaphorically, as a society, your division caused you to be in a brink of fire, like
you were almost at your very destruction, right? And then he says, for another minha, that Allah
Tada says, and he saved you from it. He was He saved you from it. galica Ubu Allahu La come at De La
La contacted him. Allah says and these verses these examples, these signs, when you look at your
past and where you were, and now you look at who you are, you see the people that you disliked so
		

			much, and now you're like brothers and sisters, you're so close to one another. Allah says this is
an example of what guidance can do. Allah gives you the signs in these moments so that you can
realize and you can be guided. And after you think about Subhanallah I used to have so much division
in my heart so much hatred in my heart. And now by the virtue of Islam were brought together as a
community we pray together, we eat together, we fast together, we, we worship, we read Quran
together, all these things bring us together, and the differences that I saw mean nothing now, Allah
Tada says, aha, see now you've tasted what guidance feels like. See, when you follow guidance,
		

			Harmony follows. When you follow the guidance of Allah, things just start going right doesn't mean
that we don't have challenges, but you're given the ability to conquer those challenges and to make
sure that you can do so
		

			with wisdom and with knowledge, may Allah Allah make us those who are guided, and those who provide
guidance for others. I mean, not me. Calum is dedicated to the mission of making the knowledge of
