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

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
