00:00:00 --> 00:00:06
			Remember, Allah creates everybody
with a package of qualities,
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:13
			capabilities, and a package of
weaknesses. The sixth that we
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:16
			should tell our children is this
as well. The successful one is the
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19
			one who has figured out their
capability so that they can use
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:24
			them for whatever they want. And
they've been able to understand
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:30
			their weaknesses and harness them.
We look around behavioral issues
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:33
			of lack issues is because people
have not recognized what their
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:36
			weaknesses are. Some people have
recognized their strengths, they
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:40
			really using that but they have
not recognized their weakness.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			Some people have not even
recognized the strength, they just
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45
			loses
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:50
			or their weakness, right. So we
need to recognize both and the
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			sooner the better, successful
people that's who they are.
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			They've recognized both and
they've harnessed them in the
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			right way and they thanked Allah
subhanaw taala
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:04
			this villa Rahmani Raheem
Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah wa
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:08
			salatu salam ala so you know
Mohammed wider early he or softly
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			he he married a mother
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:16
			may Allah subhanaw taala bless
Ignacio Illa Allah Eskandari who
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:22
			gives us these wonderful wisdoms
that we can benefit from and
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:27
			it's definitely for me but in sha
Allah for you, those who've been
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:31
			following this along it's really
gives you a better perspective of
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:35
			who Allah subhanaw taala is, So
may Allah reward him abundantly
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:39
			and everybody else has tried to
and made an attempt to get this to
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:43
			us, and this knowledge to us and
may Allah bless all of our mache
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:47
			up to the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam. So today it's
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:51
			more of a summary of the last
several aphorisms that we've been
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:57
			reading. This is what he says it's
aphorism number 203. PAGE 108 He
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:02
			says Comala you hibel MLL
MOSHTARAK cathodic Allah you
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			Hebrew Calvin MOSHTARAK
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:10
			Allameh rule which taarak Leia
burrow will call will Mr. rocla
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:14
			yoke Villani. So until now, we
were discussing actions which are
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:17
			not purely done for the sake of
Allah subhanho wa taala. So he
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:23
			says, just as He Yanni Allah does
not love the deed possessed of a
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:29
			soce sociation as NISM association
is lism. In other words, just as
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:35
			He does not love, any deed that
has anybody else associated other
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			than Allah in it, like we did it
for somebody else, just like he
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:42
			does not love that. So similarly,
He does not love the heart that
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:45
			has somebody else in there as
well.
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:50
			And a deed that is done for
somebody else must come from a
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:53
			heart that has others in there.
Because if there was nobody but
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:57
			Allah in the heart, then the deed
has to be pure, because that would
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			be a pure vessel,
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:04
			you have a dirty vessel, and
you're trying to put some pure
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:07
			substance in there, like milk or
something, you're going to corrupt
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:10
			it, it's not going to come out,
right? That's very, very simple.
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:15
			Somebody just contacted me
recently who's studying the dean.
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:21
			And something that the teacher
told them has struck them, that
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:24
			you're studying all of this detail
until you don't prepare your heart
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:29
			and purify your hearts, then it's
like you're putting into your into
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:31
			a dirty vessel, pure,
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:36
			pure honey, for example, pure
milk, the pure kind of juice and
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			you're corrupting it, you're not
going to have the same benefit
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:41
			when you taste it, it's not going
to be the purity that you're
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:44
			looking for, because you've
corrupted and polluted it. So
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:47
			that's why he said that, just like
he doesn't accept actions which
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:51
			have others intended in there. He
also does not like a heart that
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:56
			has others situated in there. So
then he says about the two, he
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:57
			says,
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:02
			Ask for the deed that has others
associated in it, he just doesn't
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:07
			accept it. And as for the heart,
which is possessed of others, he
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:10
			does not draw near to it, he
doesn't pay attention to it, he
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:15
			does not approach it, he does not
become concerned with it, meaning
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:18
			he doesn't value it in any way.
Now you could be learning
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:23
			something that he puts his
attention towards to give it some
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			kind of reward or something like
that. He doesn't doesn't care
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:30
			about it much. So as you can see,
this is a summation of what we've
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:33
			been reading so far. And Amarula
MOSHTARAK, as he says, the action
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:38
			which, which is shared, so it's
not purely for Allah, there's
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:41
			other things in there. It's
shared. Just like we don't like
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			things which are shared. Usually
we like things for ourselves. So
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:46
			you can't have something Imagine,
imagine having a coach that you
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:51
			share, right or a jacket that you
share Subhan Allah. So he's saying
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:56
			that an action which is shared,
which has some other pollution in
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			there is the one that has any kind
of
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:05
			if that has any kind of egotistic
desire associated with it, whether
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:08
			that ego artistic desire, and
again, this is all clarification
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:11
			will be done before so I don't
have to go through in detail
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:14
			whether it's a done up or away,
which basically means that you're
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:17
			doing it for something in the
dunya like we mentioned that
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:20
			you're becoming pious because
you've seen that pious people are
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:21
			well respected.
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:25
			That's your reason for it. That's
our reason becoming players were
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:28
			your players because you get
discounts and you get free gifts
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:33
			and so on. Right That would be a
do new benefits. And a benefit of
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:37
			the Hereafter would be that you do
it because I want paradise I want
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:38
			those Hola. Amen. That
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:44
			they sound really cool. They like
out of these worlds.
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:50
			So that's what I want. Now, you
can understand you know, that
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			Allah is not involved in that is
it? I mean, yes, Allah is there in
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:57
			the back of the picture somewhere
but the real Moxon all of these
		
00:05:57 --> 00:06:00
			are literally just to get us away.
So those who are leaner that if
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:04
			men desire haram in the world,
despite them having something pure
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:08
			at home, but then they desire
haram, then think of it this way
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:13
			that look if I fuego this haram
suffice with the halal Allah will
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:16
			actually then give you pleasure in
the halal and then we'll give you
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:17
			the reward in the hereafter as
well.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:22
			So it's really just for that
that's really what it's for. They
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:27
			just bonuses on the side as perks,
but the ultimate purpose is Allah
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:30
			subhanaw taala. That's why he's
saying, Now Inshallah, I mean, if
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:32
			you heard that for the first time,
then you'd be really confused at
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:35
			what's going on here. But I think
he's given us the understanding
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:39
			of, so that's why he's saying that
any heart which has any of these
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:43
			desires associated, that's any
sort of any deed which has, which
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:48
			is done for any of these shared
desires. That's a corrupted one.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:52
			And then it says the heart which
is MOSHTARAK, which is shared is
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:56
			the one in which there is love for
anything but Allah, anything but
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:01
			Allah. So he's saying the deed,
which is going to have something
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:06
			else accompanying it, that's going
to be a corrupted action, and
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:10
			like, and anything corrupted,
that's not pure is never accepted
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:14
			by Allah subhanho wa taala. Why?
Because Allah says he's declared
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:18
			very, very boldly, and he has the
right to declare diseases, and
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:20
			other than a short Okay, an issue.
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:25
			I am the most independent, I am
the most independent. I'm the one
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:29
			who's least in need of having a
partner like what's wrong with
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:33
			you? You want to you want to have
a partner, you want to associate a
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:36
			partner do it somebody else, I
don't need partners.
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:41
			I'm the most independent and most
enriched and most separate from
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:46
			this. Right, I don't need this I'm
I'm self subsisting. So then
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:50
			that's why I said then Allah says,
in a hadith, Cozzi that whoever
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:56
			does a deed in which he has
brought in anybody besides me in
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:59
			it, then I'm going to leave him
and that partner that he's done,
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:03
			okay, I'll leave it to you to you
and your purpose. Whatever you're
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:07
			doing before I leave you guys to
it. I don't have to give you
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:10
			anything for it. I don't need any
part of this. I don't need it
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:13
			anyway. So why should I take
something that's corrupt? You
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:19
			know, and there's people who have
a lot and then somebody tries to
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:21
			give them a bit half big they're
like, Man, I don't need this
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:24
			stuff. Like what are you doing?
You know, but people who are in
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			need they will take scraps.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:30
			Allah subhanaw taala is not in any
need of anything What's he going
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:35
			to take you He only takes the pure
right and you know, you go to
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:38
			somebody who's quite up their you
know, well accomplished everything
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:41
			you have to think 10 times before
you buy them something that isn't
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:45
			going to be according to their
status. I can't get away with you
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:48
			know, something half baked with
that because it's gonna seem city.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:51
			So you're saying that whenever
there's something besides Allah
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:54
			subhanaw taala in the heart, then
it means that it is adulterated
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:59
			with those kinds of desires, and
then that cannot stand in the
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:02
			course of Allah. It's not pure
enough. It's not suitable. It's
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:07
			not qualified to be in the court
of Allah subhanho wa Taala because
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:10
			Allah subhanaw taala says in the
Quran regarding his worldly abode,
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:14
			and his worldly places, we're
talking about the real world water
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:18
			heater BTLE or even keep my house
pure for those who go around and
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:23
			keep the mosquitoes pure. Right?
Allah subhanaw taala tells us to
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:26
			take our best syllabus and our
best adornment in the masjid. It's
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:29
			a place we're doing it for the
sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:31
			that's why
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:39
			a shoe study he says, Lee
Habibollah in nama Hua your I've
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:45
			got a I've got a beloved but is
very, very jealous. Protective
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:49
			jealousy. Very, very jealous. But
in an honorable jealousy it's like
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:53
			a dignified jealousy not like a
lowly jealousy man. Why have you
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:59
			got that? This is protective envy.
It's it's a jealousy like i You
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:00
			can't end
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			partner, if you want me, you need
to be fully for me, you can't be
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:07
			messing around with others, as of
what modern world is no pure
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			relationships, right?
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:16
			Says he might stay in this move of
mine, this beloved of mine might
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:21
			be in the heart, but it's like a
is like a like a bird that will
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			just fly off
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:27
			at the slightest disturbance, very
sensitive.
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:30
			We don't want to reduce Allah
SubhanAllah. This kind of
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:34
			sensitive being is of such a
dignified being that we need to be
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:35
			careful about this.
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:40
			So anybody who's going to protect
their actions and secure them with
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:45
			a glass and sincerity, then that
person then Allah shallowest Allah
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:49
			accepts it. So just as he's so
particular about what he wants,
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:52
			when he when you give him what he
wants, then there's no end to what
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:55
			he will give you. That's the
beautiful part of this, it's well
		
00:10:55 --> 00:11:00
			worth it, it's well worth doing
the action, it's well worth doing
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:03
			it as pure as possible. And then
the person will become of the
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:07
			house which means of the very
specially selected ones by Allah
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:10
			and anybody who becomes specially
selected once their heart will be
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:11
			free of fear.
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:17
			Likewise, whoever then pours
purifies the heart from anybody
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:21
			else, that heart then will be
showered with multiple blessings
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:27
			like knowledge, understanding,
wisdom, lights, contentment,
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:31
			satisfaction, all of these things,
so things won't bother them as
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:31
			much.
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:36
			And then after that, they will
actually start talking a lot more
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:41
			sense a lot more wisdom, a lot
more good things and people will
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:42
			benefit from these people.
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:48
			Right so now he breaks it down a
bit more saying that what exactly
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:51
			is a corrupted action? How do you
corrupt an action? Exactly.
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:57
			It says usually three problems
corrupt and action. First one is
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:01
			Ria. We've discussed many all of
these will just as a summary
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:07
			mentioned, Ria Rajoub Obatala or a
warden. So three things outcrops
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:11
			and action first one is real,
which means ostentation doing it
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:15
			for somebody else. I'm only doing
this so that I can you know I'm
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:19
			gonna sit I've gone for ombre. And
I really want to take that shot
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:21
			next to the car but doing tawaf
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:27
			that just looks so cool. My friend
did it. So I have to do it as well
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:32
			so I have to literally do the
whole tawaf you know with a with a
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:35
			call those selfie stick Yeah,
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:38
			that's what I really want to do.
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:42
			Brother, can you just do me a
favor? I'm going to do Do I just
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:46
			take a just take a video of that,
right? Like I'm gonna really do a
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:50
			really sincere draw. Like just
take a video of that so I can
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:53
			learn from it next time.
Seriously, people do this.
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:58
			It's just so crazy but people
doing it gone to the house of
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:04
			Allah Subhanallah millions can't
go and Masha Allah, Allah has
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:07
			given you so much wealth that you
can even video it
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:12
			for the sake of showing everybody
else I remember once I went to the
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:15
			sheikh would be in hajus so many
times when he goes hijab as a chef
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:17
			how many and he goes I don't know
what you mean you don't he said I
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:20
			don't know. I don't count how many
here's where you're going to come
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:24
			from. If one of them is accepted
to hamdulillah That's enough obrah
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:27
			I get to go home right every year
man in Ramadan
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:32
			No, I've never been Ramadan
actually I'm just saying some
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:37
			people it's like an accomplishment
say to Allah Ya Allah thank you so
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:41
			much that you allow me to go in
Ramadan for ombre you allow me to
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:46
			go in some other months to Mercy
Luxa you know say that to Allah no
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:49
			problem say that sugar keep saying
that to Allah but don't don't keep
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:53
			telling everybody else. So that
shit that's what the Hadith was
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:56
			about that anybody was going to
associate anybody else with me in
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:59
			his action. I'm going to leave
that action with the with the
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:02
			partner you guys deal with it? So
that's real
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:07
			and that's why the famous Hadith
which is in Sahih Muslim you must
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:10
			all have heard it that the first
few people that are going to be
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:15
			thrown into the Hellfire is going
to be is going to be the quarry
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:18
			who read you know for the sake of
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:22
			other people to say well what and
wonderful and Masha Allah Al
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:24
			Hamdulillah How come you guys
aren't saying that the Egyptians
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:30
			are better than you. After every
ayah the Egyptian say Allah you
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:31
			guys don't even know what you're
doing.
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:35
			If you go to Pakistan mashallah
they stand up and start waving
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:39
			their hands as well. Have you seen
those Egyptians cardies in
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:43
			Pakistan and other places?
Everybody asked everyone to kind
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:45
			of jump up and start waving their
hands it's like some kind of
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:46
			concert
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:51
			Okay, they're getting excited
about the Quran but come on.
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:55
			That's not you supposed to do the
tetherball is not about oh, wow,
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:57
			what a wonderful reading. Yes.
What a wonderful really nice
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			penetrates my heart. I know we all
fall
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:03
			bit of prejudice beautiful voices
are, it's an attraction of the
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:06
			dunya. It's an ego thing. But I
think we just need to know so that
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:09
			we can move beyond that. I think
we're all guilty of getting
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:13
			excited with beautiful voices,
beautiful signs and, and beautiful
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:17
			sights and so on. But it's just
about moving beyond that
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:20
			eventually. And then the other one
was the brave person in the path
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:24
			of Allah subhana, the warrior for
the sake of showing off, and
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:29
			number three is the wealthy person
who gives a lot of money, but it's
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:33
			again done to be to be known that
my name is on that mosque, and
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:38
			it's on that mother's side, it's
on that road and, and so on. So
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:41
			that's real, okay, that's real
now, which is ostentatious. Number
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:43
			two, he says is urgent.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:49
			Rajoub is, it's more of a very
personal thing. It's, I think I'm
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:52
			better than everybody else. It's a
much more internal, personal kind
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:57
			of thing where a person is just
walking high inside. He's just
		
00:15:57 --> 00:16:00
			walking on stilts, by himself,
though he's walking on the ground
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:03
			for everybody else is just like,
but he's walking on stilts, he's
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:07
			higher than everybody else. So
while he may be even shorter than
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:09
			others, he's like, looking down on
others.
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:13
			Right? It's this mental
superiority.
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:20
			That's a job. It's to see oneself
and to attribute all of your
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:25
			actions to yourself, not to Allah.
I did that. The worst part? Is
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:30
			this that Did anybody hear anybody
here? Did you decide which
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:36
			family you are going to be born
in? Did you have any involvement
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:42
			in that? No. What about the color
your complexion? What about
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:46
			whether you are going to be a Han
or a proton? Or Patel or something
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:46
			like that? No.
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:51
			You just turned up one day like
that, right? So how do you show
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:54
			off? It's some? How do you show
off and think yourself superior?
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:57
			Just because you're from a
particular village or you're a
		
00:16:57 --> 00:17:00
			certain color complexion? How can
you think yourself superior? You
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02
			didn't have anything to do with
it?
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:05
			You should just be thanking a life
it's good.
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:10
			Right? Whatever benefits are in
your background, or ethnicity or
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:14
			color or complexion or whatever it
is, just thank Allah. Otherwise
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:17
			you we had nice, so how can we
gloat about something like that,
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:20
			that nobody else? That's why they
just don't get it. That's why
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:21
			racism is so crazy.
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:26
			Racism is just so crazy. It's a
point of shocker. I should do
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:29
			sugar if you've got something
superior that you think it's
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:33
			superior, and then use it for the
benefit of others. Rather than
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:37
			think yourself superior, and then
put other people down. That's why.
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:44
			So, this is urgent, urgent, is is
conceitedness form of narcissism,
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:47
			you could say, right, a mental
health problem or you know, you
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:52
			can say shaytan had narcissism.
That's why he was tunnel visioned.
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:57
			And the only logical point he
could come up with was that fire
		
00:17:57 --> 00:18:02
			rises and soil is low, not that
fire benefits. Sorry, fire
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:08
			destroys, indiscriminately, and
soil never destroys, but soil
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:12
			actually is used to grow
everything that we need for life.
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:14
			You could have thought that right?
These are a lot of other points.
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:17
			Even if I taught children like
give me a comparison between fire
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:20
			and soil. You can come up with
five different comparisons. He
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:24
			came up with the worst one and
He's blinded of the others. That's
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:28
			what shows that when you love
yourself more than anybody else,
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:31
			then you will have a tunnel vision
is very difficult. Somebody
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:34
			explained to you unless you get
clobbered one day with something
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:37
			where you know you just suffered a
major setback then you're like,
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:40
			Yeah, I'm not as strong as I
thought I was. May Allah protect
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:45
			us. So then that's why Allah
subhanaw taala says fella to sec
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:47
			who and who second who are Aleppo.
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:53
			Be many taco. Do not. Do take care
of yourself. That's it. Don't
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:57
			purify yourself. Don't consider
yourself to be pure. Allah
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:01
			subhanaw taala is the most aware
of the one who has taqwa. What
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:03
			that means, in other words, is
that if you do an action, don't
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:07
			say I did this? Yes, you did do it
because it happened from your
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:10
			limbs. But ultimately, where did
you decide to do it?
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:15
			From where did you get the
inspiration? Lots of other people
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:19
			just like you don't do it. You got
to do it. You're sitting here
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:24
			today a lot of people that are
your colleagues, your neighbors
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:27
			are not sitting there they are we
don't know what they're doing.
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:30
			They might inshallah they're doing
other good stuff, but there may be
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:34
			people who are not doing so good
stuff. So why are you here? Why
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:37
			are we here sitting here today on
this Friday evening. Because of
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:41
			ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada. So relate
everything back to Allah. So I
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:44
			just, I think you know, what this
is telling us is just start
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:48
			relating everything back to Allah
where it's due, and we'll sort
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:51
			ourselves out I think that's
really what it all comes down to
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:55
			just keep going back to his keep
related remembering Allah. That's
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:58
			really what this is saying. Just
like Allah did this way. Allah
		
00:19:58 --> 00:20:00
			allowed me to do it. Thank you,
Allah.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:03
			Alhamdulillah you know, you don't
say Zakka Allah to Allah is Al
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:03
			Hamdulillah
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:07
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
salam talked about three very
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:10
			destructive factors which we're
seeing a lot today I think in the
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:13
			modern you know, the postmodern
world we live in this is more
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:18
			truer than ever, ever Celestion
Malika three destructive factors
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:19
			number one Shahan matar
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:25
			avarice and greed that is followed
that is obeyed, because today you
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:30
			can do that society social culture
is broken down to such a degree
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:33
			that you can do what you want it
very few routes and you know, in
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:37
			fact they look down upon nowadays
whereas people before community
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:41
			had a much better sense of ethics.
So, you can see this is worse
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:46
			today, well when whatever desires
that are followed and number three
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:49
			is a job will I mean, the first
two are kind of related and the
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:53
			first one the third one is job
will more eBay NFC is just person
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:59
			conceited person thinking himself
Great. A person wonder in
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:03
			wonderment of himself. Wow, what a
what a human you are.
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:09
			Never thing like Who created you
as one? Man? What an
		
00:21:09 --> 00:21:12
			accomplishment man? Look, I've got
this and I've got that and I've
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:12
			got that
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:15
			wonderful human, I am
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:19
			lovable, I don't think that will
come back.
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:24
			It's like, okay, that's fine. But
where did you get it from? Who
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:28
			inspired you who facilitated the
way for you? Who made everything
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:31
			conducive for you to get there?
Okay, you've got it now. All
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:35
			right, fine, just turn it around.
Now say Allah gave it to you and
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:38
			you will suddenly see that this
will have a bearing on the
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:41
			hereafter in a positive way. Not
in a negative way anymore. So
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:45
			fine, you're there, no problem.
Just change it. They did not
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:49
			Islam. He said that led to the
coinfalls What Allah Subhana Allah
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:53
			said, Don't purify yourself. It
means that don't consider yourself
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:57
			to be sorted in the hereafter.
Because I've studied for this many
		
00:21:57 --> 00:22:00
			years, I give lectures or whatever
I come in the masjid and I see
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:03
			that mashallah, there's another
brother who's always in the first
		
00:22:03 --> 00:22:05
			role. And he hasn't studied as
much as me. I think he's better
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:08
			than me, in that sense, just so
that he doesn't think that yeah,
		
00:22:08 --> 00:22:11
			it's okay, just the universe to
have learned anything. They want
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:14
			Him to be deceived, either. But
it's definitely better me than me
		
00:22:14 --> 00:22:16
			being in the first because he's in
the first row, and I'm not in the
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:19
			first row. So there's always
somebody superior to us. We're not
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:23
			done, we're not sorted. We have
some accomplishments as everybody
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:30
			does. Remember, Allah creates
everybody with a package of
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:37
			qualities, capabilities, and a
package of weaknesses. The sixth
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:40
			that we should tell our children
is this as well. The successful
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:43
			one is the one who's figured out
their capabilities so that they
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:48
			can use them for whatever they
want. And they've been able to
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:52
			understand their weaknesses and
harness them. We look around
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:57
			behavioral issues. a HELOC issues
is because people have not
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:00
			recognized what their weaknesses.
Some people have recognized their
		
00:23:00 --> 00:23:03
			strengths, they really using that
but they have not recognized their
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:04
			weakness.
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:09
			Some people have not even
recognized the strength, they just
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:09
			loses
		
00:23:11 --> 00:23:14
			or their weakness, right. So we
need to recognize both and the
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:17
			sooner the better, successful
people that's who they are.
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:19
			They've recognized both and
they've harnessed them in the
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:21
			right way and they've thanked
Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:28
			uses a Hadith of the Prophet
salallahu Salam, which says that
		
00:23:28 --> 00:23:31
			loan them to the Naboo the Hashi
to la cama who Akbar una de lluvia
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:36
			LA region if you did not sin, this
is actually talking about those
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:39
			people now who think that they
accomplished in the sight of
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:43
			Allah, their worship is to such a
high so we're not talking about
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:46
			worldly accomplishment anymore.
We're talking about people who
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:50
			mashallah get to do a lot of
worship. And then suddenly, the
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:54
			shaytan comes there to make you
make a person feel that because of
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:57
			their abundant worship, they're
better than anybody else, and
		
00:23:57 --> 00:24:01
			they're guaranteed paradise. So
that's why this narration is
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:07
			brought here that look, if you did
not sin, then I fear upon you
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:10
			something even bigger, some a
bigger sin,
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:14
			meaning in you're not singing,
right? If you did not end up
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:18
			singing, sometimes slip up
basically what it means then I
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:21
			would fear a biggest thing, which
is that you start becoming self
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:22
			conceited
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:27
			and start thinking you're, you're
accomplished, which is another
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:27
			sin.
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:31
			The whole life is a bit of a
struggle, but as long as the
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:33
			person recognizes Allah then it
becomes easy.
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:39
			One of the one of our pious
predecessors said that if I can
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:44
			seek the night right sleep through
the night and wake up in the
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:47
			morning and I haven't been to
hygiene and feel bad about it, is
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:52
			that that superior then I stand
many hours of the night in tahajud
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:54
			and in the morning, I just feel
like I'm topping.
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:58
			You can feel on top of the world
that all hamdulillah look what
		
00:24:58 --> 00:24:59
			Allah has given me to do. That's
fine.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:02
			But to think I'm better than
everybody else in the room I doubt
		
00:25:02 --> 00:25:04
			if there's anybody in this
locality that stands for this
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:06
			long. Do you think there's anybody
else like
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:13
			shake hands is gonna give us
various ideas. You know, I've
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:16
			spent this much money behind this
Masjid. I've spent all of this
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:21
			effort I was in this masjid, this
mercy, but no mercy from day one.
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:25
			I was the one who brought the
first donation.
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:29
			You know, all of that, and I feel
I'm better than anybody else
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:33
			because of it. Now, if I do sugar,
then that's fine. Somebody asked
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:38
			Aisha Radi Allahu anha. When is a
person a bad person? When does he
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:38
			do a bad deed?
		
00:25:40 --> 00:25:44
			It's when he thinks is really
accomplished. And he's doing that
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:49
			he feels that he's just on. He's
just fully accomplished. Now. What
		
00:25:49 --> 00:25:53
			is one of the advices that has
been given is that anybody who is
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:58
			so enamored by themselves, right,
because mashallah, he does, you
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:03
			know, he does his four months
every year, or he volunteers this
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:06
			much time and you know, whatever
other good deeds or that person
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:07
			does.
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:13
			What his issue is, is that he's
usually going to be because he's
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:18
			just so enamored by himself, he
makes you blind, to any defects,
		
00:26:18 --> 00:26:21
			to any slip ups to any weaknesses.
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:26
			The problem with deeds is that it
constantly has to be refined.
		
00:26:27 --> 00:26:31
			That's the way this world works,
even cooks, if they start just
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:35
			doing it, without really focusing,
they'll get it wrong one day, even
		
00:26:35 --> 00:26:40
			though they've made it 20 times.
So any deed in this world, you
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:42
			have to put attention to it.
Otherwise, one day, you'll go
		
00:26:42 --> 00:26:43
			wrong with it.
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:46
			And when that happens, when you're
not careful and considerate about
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:52
			what you're doing, then you could
actually start singing. When it
		
00:26:52 --> 00:26:55
			comes to deeds, because you've
lost sight of the purpose. You're
		
00:26:55 --> 00:26:58
			too enamored by oneself.
		
00:27:00 --> 00:27:02
			Now, what then happens is that
because you think you're better
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:05
			than anybody else, you're not even
going to ask anybody for advice.
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:08
			And if somebody even volunteers
advice, you're not going to take
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:10
			it you're going to think, Man,
this guy's jealous of me, very
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:13
			necessary. Allah has Salam o Allah
for you, we ask Allah subhanaw
		
00:27:13 --> 00:27:16
			taala safety and well being from
this. And the last one that he
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:19
			said, the third thing that
pollutes and action is when you're
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:23
			actually seeking a reward for it,
other than Allah, the reward can
		
00:27:23 --> 00:27:26
			be Allah, Oh, Allah, I want you.
Right? I want you to be pleased.
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:29
			If there's any other remember,
we've talked about that. If you're
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:33
			even looking for the hills of
paradise, or a certain, you know,
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:38
			place that you're looking for
whatever the case is all of that.
		
00:27:38 --> 00:27:40
			Because if that's the case, then
Allah is going to say, Well, look,
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:44
			if that's what you want, let me
see your class. Let me see how
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:45
			good your deed was.
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:49
			Do I have to accept it? Do I have
to give you your reward? You had
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:53
			this? You thought about this while
you were doing the reward? You had
		
00:27:53 --> 00:27:55
			this shortcoming? Why'd you did?
Why do you did this deed.
		
00:27:57 --> 00:28:01
			So if there's any corruption in
your action, Allah doesn't have to
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:05
			reward you. So it's wrong. Just
say, oh, Allah, I'm doing this to
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:09
			the best of my ability for you.
Thank you for letting me even do
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:13
			this. Whatever Thank you means.
And what is thank you means.
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:17
			It's just a gesture. It's like,
Thank you. You just feel good that
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:21
			I said, Thank you. But what's the
literal meaning of Thank you? I
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:24
			guess, give thanks. Like, I'm
grateful to you.
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:28
			That makes a bit more sense. But
again, what is that?
		
00:28:29 --> 00:28:33
			I'm just expressing my gratitude.
Once in hudge, you got these guys
		
00:28:33 --> 00:28:38
			from Sindh? they the ones usually
doing the edema within the camps,
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:41
			because Cindy's a very hot place.
So I think they can stand it down
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:45
			there, right? There is this really
nice kid like 20 something years
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:48
			old, he was serving tea, and I
said to him sugar, and he said, By
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:52
			the way, you can do what you know
of sugar and you get it at St.
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:55
			Joe's Alcala or something and give
me a doll. Like shukran you're
		
00:28:55 --> 00:29:00
			basically saying thank you. I'm
grateful to you. So I'm expressing
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:03
			my gratitude give me $1 as well
man, like you know, like, may
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:08
			Allah reward you with a good point
see nothing always a shukran or
		
00:29:09 --> 00:29:14
			thanks, but give it was well,
because then you actually given so
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:15
			he wanted to us.
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:19
			Allah bless him wherever he is,
whatever he's doing, he taught me
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:24
			something. The heart which is
corrupted, also has been corrupted
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:28
			by three things. Number one is
love of the world. Love of being
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:33
			special. That's number two. And
number three is a love of anything
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:37
			but Allah subhanaw taala in terms
of the Hereafter, all of those are
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:41
			going to encroach on our loss and
our sincerity and take us away
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:45
			from Peurto Hades. We need pure
Tauheed Peurto here is to do
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:47
			things purely for the sake of
Allah subhanho wa taala. So this
		
00:29:47 --> 00:29:51
			is what if not, I thought ILA this
country says sorry, this is what
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:54
			she had to lug and go he says in
explaining this and finishing he
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:59
			says association is Association
ism is
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:05
			I don't like that word. In worship
is a deed that is contaminated
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:09
			with ostentation. Allah does not
love such a deed. Similarly the
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:10
			heart of
		
00:30:11 --> 00:30:16
			association ism is a heart in
which is found the love of others
		
00:30:16 --> 00:30:20
			besides Allah. And Allah does not
love such a heart. Allah Most High
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:25
			loves the heart that contains only
his love. When deeds are performed
		
00:30:25 --> 00:30:28
			solely for the pleasure of others,
they are not acceptable to Allah
		
00:30:28 --> 00:30:32
			Most High, only deeds devoid of
ostentation acceptable to him. So
		
00:30:32 --> 00:30:37
			is famous or do couplets which
says that somebody's calling out
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:42
			to Allah, Oh Allah, he's saying,
oh, Allah Now, please enter,
		
00:30:42 --> 00:30:48
			please enter. Now my heart is
clean cleansed of all US. Now
		
00:30:48 --> 00:30:52
			finally, I've managed to get all
else out. Now please enter. You
		
00:30:52 --> 00:30:55
			have not entered until now that
these now enter.
		
00:30:56 --> 00:31:00
			May Allah subhanaw taala allow us
such hearts. It sounds very
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:02
			difficult but I think one lesson
that we get from today it's very
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:06
			simple. Is that just start
thinking of Allah subhanho wa
		
00:31:06 --> 00:31:10
			Taala and associating and
attributing everything to Allah
		
00:31:10 --> 00:31:14
			subhana wa Tada Allahumma salaam
Inca salam ala their their journey
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:15
			will
		
00:31:16 --> 00:31:22
			love me or hate you. Yeah. For
you. Yesterday? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah,
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:28

Yeah. Latif the other jewelry with

00:31:38 --> 00:31:41
			the Allah we ask you for your
special mercies of Allah we ask
		
00:31:41 --> 00:31:45
			you for you of Allah we ask you
for you all our hearts are
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:49
			polluted our actions are polluted.
Who Allah purify our hearts purify
		
00:31:49 --> 00:31:53
			our actions. Allow us to at least
to some days before we depart from
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:56
			this world purely for the sake of
Allah allow us to experience
		
00:31:56 --> 00:32:01
			sincerity. Allow us to experience
if last allow us to experience
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:04
			your love of Allah allow us to
experience that so that everything
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:08
			else can be forgotten. All these
distractions this all these
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:11
			distractions can wane in our
sights of Allah allow us to
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:15
			experience that so Allah grant us
the hello with an Iman grant us
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:18
			the sweetness of faith of Allah
allow us to attribute everything
		
00:32:18 --> 00:32:22
			to you for there is nothing but
you have Allah there is nobody
		
00:32:22 --> 00:32:26
			nothing that can do anything
besides you. So Allah allow us to
		
00:32:26 --> 00:32:29
			attribute allow us to be true in
this world allow us to have truth
		
00:32:29 --> 00:32:33
			in this world. Allow us to be of
the study of key in the Siddiqui
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:36
			and and be with the syndicator as
well. Oh Allah allow us to draw
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:41
			closer to you. Allah bless all of
our teachers and our mache all who
		
00:32:41 --> 00:32:44
			have taught us good in this world.
Without them up to the prophets of
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:48
			Allah some would be lost souls, Oh
Allah, Oh Allah protect us from
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:51
			the sheep and protect us from the
punishment of the grave and
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:53
			protect us from the
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:58
			punishment of the Hellfire of
Allah keep this demon in class and
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:02
			sincerity in our families and our
progenies until the day of
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:06
			judgment of Allah, we asked you
not for our just ourselves, but
		
00:33:06 --> 00:33:09
			for all of us and for our
progenies and descendants. And I
		
00:33:09 --> 00:33:11
			would like accept us all for the
service of your deen and make us
		
00:33:11 --> 00:33:15
			of those who abundantly remember
you and who are grateful to you
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:18
			who have gratitude for you

00:33:23 --> 00:33:27
			The point of a lecture is to
encourage people to act to get
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:32
			further an inspiration and
encouragement, persuasion. The
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:36
			next step is to actually start
learning seriously to read books
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:39
			to take on a subject of Islam and
to understand all the subjects of
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:43
			Islam at least at the basic level,
so that we can become more aware
		
00:33:43 --> 00:33:47
			of what our deen wants from us.
And that's why we started Rayyan
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:52
			courses so that you can actually
take organize lectures on demand
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:55
			whenever you have free time,
especially for example, the
		
00:33:55 --> 00:33:59

have on the Islamic essentials

Short modules and at the end of
		
00:34:04 --> 00:34:09
			that inshallah you will have
gotten the basics of most of the
		
00:34:09 --> 00:34:11
			most important topics in Islam and
you will feel a lot more
		
00:34:11 --> 00:34:14
			confident. You don't have to leave
lectures behind you can continue
		
00:34:14 --> 00:34:17
