Bismillah R Rahman Al Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa salatu salam ala

00:00:05 --> 00:00:08

so either Mr. Diwan. Earlier he was asked me he he married a

00:00:08 --> 00:00:13

mother and today we're in a place called de si, which is just a few

00:00:13 --> 00:00:17

kilometers in from the main road that goes from North Shore to

00:00:17 --> 00:00:22

Senegal. And this is a place where, which is the home of the

00:00:22 --> 00:00:27

Jacobi tribe. Now these people were scattered around the desert

00:00:27 --> 00:00:32

as Bedouins and around 1980, they decided to come together here. The

00:00:32 --> 00:00:36

Sheikh, who is Sheikh Mohammed, Al Hassan, was a great chef, nearly

00:00:36 --> 00:00:40

80 years old. And he teaches all of the different subjects here.

00:00:41 --> 00:00:45

And he he's a he's a commentator of a number of Sheikh Mohammed mo

00:00:45 --> 00:00:49

loads books like Matata Toluca, lube, Muhammad, Hassan and a

00:00:49 --> 00:00:52

number of these other other books. He's he's done commentaries of all

00:00:52 --> 00:00:55

of them. In fact, his commentaries are probably the most famous of

00:00:55 --> 00:00:59

these books. So he's been teaching here for about 40 years. So he

00:00:59 --> 00:01:01

used to be down there in the desert. He used to be down there

00:01:01 --> 00:01:05

in the desert, just himself, his family, which used to have like

00:01:05 --> 00:01:08

one small kind of residents, again, just kind of like made up

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

of something. And then they used to be just tents around all of his

00:01:11 --> 00:01:14

students, the rest of his tribe used to be outside. And then

00:01:14 --> 00:01:17

around 1980s, they decided to come together. So some of them moved to

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

the Capitol, but the others they came in established this village

00:01:19 --> 00:01:23

here called AC, which we'll look at later. Now in there, they have

00:01:23 --> 00:01:27

some, you know, proper kind of houses instead of just just tents

00:01:27 --> 00:01:30

and stuff like that. And then he's got a number of students that have

00:01:30 --> 00:01:35

come from places like Tunisia, Senegal, Guinea, maybe some from

00:01:35 --> 00:01:38

other countries as well, like, come and study with him. The

00:01:38 --> 00:01:42

Sheikh is nearly 80 years old, we just set with him. Such a

00:01:42 --> 00:01:47

wonderful, wonderful way of Allah subhanaw taala. He's really,

00:01:47 --> 00:01:50

really down to earth, He speaks to you. He's not he's not feeling too

00:01:50 --> 00:01:54

well, today. May Allah subhanho wa taala, give him Shiva. But we came

00:01:54 --> 00:01:59

out here to see a world that they used to use before. And around

00:01:59 --> 00:02:02

that, well, they have another small kind of reservoir kind of

00:02:02 --> 00:02:04

thing in which they used to put the water in, and everybody used

00:02:04 --> 00:02:08

to take the water from there. So basically, as you can see around

00:02:08 --> 00:02:11

you, it's just pure desert. These trees were actually planted here

00:02:11 --> 00:02:14

by the government after they established the town after they

00:02:14 --> 00:02:18

established this. Would you call it this village, that the

00:02:18 --> 00:02:21

government gives them a grant to plant these trees? And I asked if

00:02:21 --> 00:02:23

there's any soil under here, because how do we plant trees, so

00:02:23 --> 00:02:26

we essentially understand the soil, and they have to do some

00:02:26 --> 00:02:31

really deep, boring to get there to get water as well. This

00:02:31 --> 00:02:34

particular little tent here is of one of the students who decided

00:02:34 --> 00:02:37

that he doesn't want to be going to generally students are housed

00:02:37 --> 00:02:40

in these small tents or small huts, literally just like huts

00:02:40 --> 00:02:43

with about four students or five students in there. Some of these

00:02:43 --> 00:02:47

students may want to come out and decide that they want to study

00:02:47 --> 00:02:50

alone. So they come here he's built this kind of little tent on

00:02:50 --> 00:02:55

this tree. It's, you know, maybe 100 meters 200 meters from the

00:02:55 --> 00:02:59

village, and he's coming he wants to study here. So personal is

00:02:59 --> 00:03:03

taking us around is this, Abdullah Abdullah here who is one of the

00:03:03 --> 00:03:07

sheiks grandsons, and you know, he studied a number of books as well

00:03:07 --> 00:03:10

himself and the depth of the Quran. The Quran is half of the

00:03:10 --> 00:03:13

Quran. He's also studied. He's also memorized some of the Maliki

00:03:13 --> 00:03:17

texts. And we had a good chat before this is another student who

00:03:17 --> 00:03:22

studied in a similar Mahara. He studied in the mantra we were in

00:03:22 --> 00:03:23

before

00:03:24 --> 00:03:26

maximum mother Alinea country. Mahalo

00:03:28 --> 00:03:32

mahalo arthropods Mahathir fats. Were Sheikh Mohammed Sheikh body

00:03:33 --> 00:03:37

Shinko. highly controversial, but I don't know.

00:03:39 --> 00:03:43

Ship by Matata Shiva. Nobody, nobody studied there a few years

00:03:43 --> 00:03:47

as well. So he's still he's still studying on the DAF and dorsal and

00:03:47 --> 00:03:50

Avon when phenol showed actual phenol

00:03:52 --> 00:03:54

in the verdict, so he's still studying under his father in the

00:03:54 --> 00:03:58

workshop right now. But he's come here he came with us here, we

00:03:58 --> 00:04:02

stayed, we stayed overnight here. There's really basically there's a

00:04:02 --> 00:04:05

lot of Majah here for somebody who's so used to like built

00:04:05 --> 00:04:08

places. As you can see the ground, there's nothing that's growing

00:04:08 --> 00:04:12

here, most of the stuff here is all important. And they have to

00:04:12 --> 00:04:16

really, they they survive on the most basic kinds of foods, which

00:04:16 --> 00:04:19

is kind of interesting. Subhanallah they, you know, they,

00:04:19 --> 00:04:23

they, they, they have to survive, because that's that's the way it

00:04:23 --> 00:04:27

is. Even the toilet bathroom situation is very difficult for

00:04:27 --> 00:04:30

Westerners to maybe get used to unless they're really dedicated.

00:04:30 --> 00:04:33

So this is a very difficult to study. But you know, it's a place

00:04:33 --> 00:04:38

that affords you total isolation, it affords you an ability to just

00:04:38 --> 00:04:41

sit and concentrate to just be focused. I think that's the one

00:04:41 --> 00:04:44

thing that would because at nighttime, you know, they have

00:04:44 --> 00:04:47

solar panels that give them a bit of light, but there's no TV in

00:04:47 --> 00:04:49

this in this particular video, there's no TV, if any of these

00:04:49 --> 00:04:53

kids want to go out to watch and they seem to be sometimes, you

00:04:53 --> 00:04:57

know, aware of the scores etc. They have to go down to they have

00:04:57 --> 00:04:58

to go down to digging

00:05:00 --> 00:05:02

That's another student down there who seems to be going to study

00:05:04 --> 00:05:08

who you're probably the uterus. Okay, he's going to study down

00:05:08 --> 00:05:13

there somewhere. And so it's really it's really amazing to see

00:05:13 --> 00:05:17

that they've kept the Dean alive like this in with all these hush

00:05:17 --> 00:05:19

means and just proves the one thing that Islam can work

00:05:19 --> 00:05:23

anywhere. And people love their Deen wherever and that's come out

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25

of Islam. That's the greatness of Islam that people love the deen

00:05:25 --> 00:05:28

wherever they are. They have great heritage here Mashallah.

00:05:29 --> 00:05:33

As we were speaking earlier, we said that students sometimes come

00:05:33 --> 00:05:36

out and there's lots of open space here. So they come to study while

00:05:36 --> 00:05:39

the other student we saw earlier he had his own tent built here

00:05:39 --> 00:05:42

more permanent. This particular student chooses to come here and

00:05:42 --> 00:05:45

sit under this tree. He's got this low, which is this wooden tablet

00:05:45 --> 00:05:50

that he's using, on which he has written he's written his his own,

00:05:50 --> 00:05:53

you know, his lesson and that's what he's studying here. We're

00:05:53 --> 00:05:55

going to speak to each other we're going to speak to him so are they

00:05:56 --> 00:05:57

given how

00:05:59 --> 00:06:04

many tiny mashallah for another person? I mean, come sooner?

00:06:05 --> 00:06:06

No,

00:06:07 --> 00:06:07

no.

00:06:08 --> 00:06:11

So no one knows. So he's been studying here for he's very tiny.

00:06:11 --> 00:06:13

He has been studying here for about one and a half, one and a

00:06:13 --> 00:06:15

half years right now Mother Teresa

00:06:17 --> 00:06:21

and Olivia they sue to feed nomadic. So he's studying a book

00:06:21 --> 00:06:26

on grammar called Alfia nomadic and he's written his lesson. Do

00:06:26 --> 00:06:29

you want to take a close up of the law

00:06:32 --> 00:06:35

so that's the MongoDB script. That's the MongoDB script

00:06:38 --> 00:06:39

come come you're on top of her

00:06:40 --> 00:06:41

sci fi

00:06:43 --> 00:06:44

I should be at

00:06:47 --> 00:06:48

work come

00:06:55 --> 00:06:57

on mashallah, so he's gonna start he's gonna He's gonna learn

00:06:58 --> 00:07:02

memorize all of this. This is a book on grammar as I mentioned,

00:07:02 --> 00:07:05

mashallah, for undetectably sunnah Come sir.

00:07:08 --> 00:07:10

So you sit here for about four hours mashallah, studying,

00:07:11 --> 00:07:16

mashallah Baraka lofi come Shala Baraka Lufia and mycom of you

00:07:16 --> 00:07:20

hence the kombucha Allah Fianna they just are their own Anna

00:07:22 --> 00:07:26

so this is Desi the village of DC as you can see, there's probably

00:07:26 --> 00:07:30

about 50 houses or something like that down here, the Masjid is

00:07:30 --> 00:07:33

right in the middle. And just behind that, there's that red

00:07:33 --> 00:07:36

roof, that's where we slept there, which is a small library that the

00:07:36 --> 00:07:41

shakers and that's where we slept, if you can see around, this is

00:07:41 --> 00:07:45

where you've got all these green tea trees around it in the middle

00:07:45 --> 00:07:49

of the desert. So there's not much else other than that. And in here,

00:07:49 --> 00:07:54

you've got the original people of the city living here. And along

00:07:54 --> 00:07:56

with that you've got a lot of the students as students are housed in

00:07:56 --> 00:07:59

these kinds of buildings sometimes where they share and then as we

00:07:59 --> 00:08:02

saw, there was some that used to just go out to study as well.

00:08:04 --> 00:08:05

Similar so

00:08:06 --> 00:08:08

gay for mother tongue will be hover

00:08:15 --> 00:08:20

right. So basically this is you can see a very simple type of

00:08:21 --> 00:08:25

timer or a calculator that they have. So they basically use this

00:08:25 --> 00:08:29

to see how many times they need to memorize. So they make that number

00:08:29 --> 00:08:32

of boxes they make that number of boxes and then after that as soon

00:08:32 --> 00:08:35

as they've done one reading they they get rid of it and then

00:08:35 --> 00:08:38

another one another one like that. So basically it well we have these

00:08:38 --> 00:08:41

phones and things like that where we count these things on these

00:08:41 --> 00:08:44

people not sure that this is this is the kind of stuff that they

00:08:44 --> 00:08:48

use, mashallah to count how many times they've they read this is if

00:08:48 --> 00:08:51

you look around here, this is the basic room that they have in which

00:08:51 --> 00:08:57

the students they study that's in the corner they have a box of

00:08:57 --> 00:09:01

their books. You can see that's another low horror tablet that

00:09:01 --> 00:09:02

they have on which they write

00:09:06 --> 00:09:10

and then down there they have their little stove to make the

00:09:10 --> 00:09:12

teas and things like that to carry on.

00:09:14 --> 00:09:17

That's it that's all they have done here. No beds just sleep on

00:09:17 --> 00:09:17

the floor.

00:09:40 --> 00:09:41

Shade but then

00:09:44 --> 00:09:45

at the bottom when you

00:09:46 --> 00:09:48

have a government bumped up to

00:09:49 --> 00:09:49

500

00:09:53 --> 00:09:55

not get down with that kind of

00:09:57 --> 00:09:58

messy right

00:09:59 --> 00:09:59

now

00:10:00 --> 00:10:05

Download the origin data you want to go down here even halfway

00:10:08 --> 00:10:12

through the idea probably you guys got any data measures or whatever

00:10:12 --> 00:10:13

to make

00:10:14 --> 00:10:15

that happen how about

00:10:17 --> 00:10:17

this

00:10:28 --> 00:10:29

other questions and we'll get

00:10:31 --> 00:10:32

to that in

00:10:37 --> 00:10:37

a bit.

00:10:40 --> 00:10:42

Medical penalty and

00:10:48 --> 00:10:51

usually 50 of medical needs was understanding

00:10:57 --> 00:10:58

will be a honeybee

00:11:00 --> 00:11:03

you're already a honeybee and nobody

00:11:04 --> 00:11:05

will hire that

00:11:27 --> 00:11:28

meanwhile, you've wanted

00:11:29 --> 00:11:29

to hear

00:11:31 --> 00:11:31

your son you're gonna
