Bismillah R Rahman Al Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa salatu salam ala
so either Mr. Diwan. Earlier he was asked me he he married a
mother and today we're in a place called de si, which is just a few
kilometers in from the main road that goes from North Shore to
Senegal. And this is a place where, which is the home of the
Jacobi tribe. Now these people were scattered around the desert
as Bedouins and around 1980, they decided to come together here. The
Sheikh, who is Sheikh Mohammed, Al Hassan, was a great chef, nearly
80 years old. And he teaches all of the different subjects here.
And he he's a he's a commentator of a number of Sheikh Mohammed mo
loads books like Matata Toluca, lube, Muhammad, Hassan and a
number of these other other books. He's he's done commentaries of all
of them. In fact, his commentaries are probably the most famous of
these books. So he's been teaching here for about 40 years. So he
used to be down there in the desert. He used to be down there
in the desert, just himself, his family, which used to have like
one small kind of residents, again, just kind of like made up
of something. And then they used to be just tents around all of his
students, the rest of his tribe used to be outside. And then
around 1980s, they decided to come together. So some of them moved to
the Capitol, but the others they came in established this village
here called AC, which we'll look at later. Now in there, they have
some, you know, proper kind of houses instead of just just tents
and stuff like that. And then he's got a number of students that have
come from places like Tunisia, Senegal, Guinea, maybe some from
other countries as well, like, come and study with him. The
Sheikh is nearly 80 years old, we just set with him. Such a
wonderful, wonderful way of Allah subhanaw taala. He's really,
really down to earth, He speaks to you. He's not he's not feeling too
well, today. May Allah subhanho wa taala, give him Shiva. But we came
out here to see a world that they used to use before. And around
that, well, they have another small kind of reservoir kind of
thing in which they used to put the water in, and everybody used
to take the water from there. So basically, as you can see around
you, it's just pure desert. These trees were actually planted here
by the government after they established the town after they
established this. Would you call it this village, that the
government gives them a grant to plant these trees? And I asked if
there's any soil under here, because how do we plant trees, so
we essentially understand the soil, and they have to do some
really deep, boring to get there to get water as well. This
particular little tent here is of one of the students who decided
that he doesn't want to be going to generally students are housed
in these small tents or small huts, literally just like huts
with about four students or five students in there. Some of these
students may want to come out and decide that they want to study
alone. So they come here he's built this kind of little tent on
this tree. It's, you know, maybe 100 meters 200 meters from the
village, and he's coming he wants to study here. So personal is
taking us around is this, Abdullah Abdullah here who is one of the
sheiks grandsons, and you know, he studied a number of books as well
himself and the depth of the Quran. The Quran is half of the
Quran. He's also studied. He's also memorized some of the Maliki
texts. And we had a good chat before this is another student who
studied in a similar Mahara. He studied in the mantra we were in
before
maximum mother Alinea country. Mahalo
mahalo arthropods Mahathir fats. Were Sheikh Mohammed Sheikh body
Shinko. highly controversial, but I don't know.
Ship by Matata Shiva. Nobody, nobody studied there a few years
as well. So he's still he's still studying on the DAF and dorsal and
Avon when phenol showed actual phenol
in the verdict, so he's still studying under his father in the
workshop right now. But he's come here he came with us here, we
stayed, we stayed overnight here. There's really basically there's a
lot of Majah here for somebody who's so used to like built
places. As you can see the ground, there's nothing that's growing
here, most of the stuff here is all important. And they have to
really, they they survive on the most basic kinds of foods, which
is kind of interesting. Subhanallah they, you know, they,
they, they, they have to survive, because that's that's the way it
is. Even the toilet bathroom situation is very difficult for
Westerners to maybe get used to unless they're really dedicated.
So this is a very difficult to study. But you know, it's a place
that affords you total isolation, it affords you an ability to just
sit and concentrate to just be focused. I think that's the one
thing that would because at nighttime, you know, they have
solar panels that give them a bit of light, but there's no TV in
this in this particular video, there's no TV, if any of these
kids want to go out to watch and they seem to be sometimes, you
know, aware of the scores etc. They have to go down to they have
to go down to digging
That's another student down there who seems to be going to study
who you're probably the uterus. Okay, he's going to study down
there somewhere. And so it's really it's really amazing to see
that they've kept the Dean alive like this in with all these hush
means and just proves the one thing that Islam can work
anywhere. And people love their Deen wherever and that's come out
of Islam. That's the greatness of Islam that people love the deen
wherever they are. They have great heritage here Mashallah.
As we were speaking earlier, we said that students sometimes come
out and there's lots of open space here. So they come to study while
the other student we saw earlier he had his own tent built here
more permanent. This particular student chooses to come here and
sit under this tree. He's got this low, which is this wooden tablet
that he's using, on which he has written he's written his his own,
you know, his lesson and that's what he's studying here. We're
going to speak to each other we're going to speak to him so are they
given how
many tiny mashallah for another person? I mean, come sooner?
No,
no.
So no one knows. So he's been studying here for he's very tiny.
He has been studying here for about one and a half, one and a
half years right now Mother Teresa
and Olivia they sue to feed nomadic. So he's studying a book
on grammar called Alfia nomadic and he's written his lesson. Do
you want to take a close up of the law
so that's the MongoDB script. That's the MongoDB script
come come you're on top of her
sci fi
I should be at
work come
on mashallah, so he's gonna start he's gonna He's gonna learn
memorize all of this. This is a book on grammar as I mentioned,
mashallah, for undetectably sunnah Come sir.
So you sit here for about four hours mashallah, studying,
mashallah Baraka lofi come Shala Baraka Lufia and mycom of you
hence the kombucha Allah Fianna they just are their own Anna
so this is Desi the village of DC as you can see, there's probably
about 50 houses or something like that down here, the Masjid is
right in the middle. And just behind that, there's that red
roof, that's where we slept there, which is a small library that the
shakers and that's where we slept, if you can see around, this is
where you've got all these green tea trees around it in the middle
of the desert. So there's not much else other than that. And in here,
you've got the original people of the city living here. And along
with that you've got a lot of the students as students are housed in
these kinds of buildings sometimes where they share and then as we
saw, there was some that used to just go out to study as well.
Similar so
gay for mother tongue will be hover
right. So basically this is you can see a very simple type of
timer or a calculator that they have. So they basically use this
to see how many times they need to memorize. So they make that number
of boxes they make that number of boxes and then after that as soon
as they've done one reading they they get rid of it and then
another one another one like that. So basically it well we have these
phones and things like that where we count these things on these
people not sure that this is this is the kind of stuff that they
use, mashallah to count how many times they've they read this is if
you look around here, this is the basic room that they have in which
the students they study that's in the corner they have a box of
their books. You can see that's another low horror tablet that
they have on which they write
and then down there they have their little stove to make the
teas and things like that to carry on.
That's it that's all they have done here. No beds just sleep on
the floor.
