00:00:00 --> 00:00:03
			Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al
hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:07
			Salatu was Salam ala say you
didn't Mursaleen. While early he
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:11
			was Safi or Baraka was seldom at
the Sleeman Kathira on a laomi
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:13
			Deen Allah bad.
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:18
			The author, Imam Maha CB,
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			who's considered to be one of the
greatest in this field, and his
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			book is extremely considered to be
an extremely important book in the
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			subject of foundational text. So
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:35
			the last time we covered this
aspect that was the miroir tuna
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:40
			laferla. Avoid places that lead to
heedlessness that cause you
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:44
			distraction from Allah subhanho wa
taala. And as we discussed that,
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			that was something very difficult
to do nowadays, because the
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:50
			distraction is, in our very hands,
you don't even have to go anywhere
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:54
			to be distracted, you can be
distracted alone with your phone.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			Then he talks about
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:00
			berawa Shaha, which is the
addiction of
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			the addiction, the pull
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:10
			to desires, when it becomes a and
this is probably one of the
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:14
			biggest things that anybody deals
with, in terms of in the past to
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17
			Allah subhanaw taala, even the
serious ones that want to be close
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:21
			to Allah subhanaw taala probably
one of the biggest challenges is
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:24
			dealing with this aspect is that I
just love these particular things
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			too much.
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:30
			And I can't get out of it. They
just create too much desire in me
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			and they fulfill a certain type of
desire. And we become slaves of
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:37
			these things. So it becomes very,
very difficult. That's I would say
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			it's probably one of our biggest
problems.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:47
			So now, if the pm Rahim Allah He
has some real good advice about
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:53
			this. You saying that, if you if
we if you if we try to think about
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:57
			what the consequence of this is
going to be. Slowly, slowly, we
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:01
			tried to think about the
consequence. While we're about to
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:04
			embark on an act of shadow and the
shadow and the desire has taken
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:07
			over, and we just can't avoid it,
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:11
			then it's very difficult to think
about things at that time. Because
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:16
			the the shuffle at the desire
clouds our mind, you got no time
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			to think at that time. We're
single minded at that time, we're
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:23
			very tunnel visioned. Just like a
person who's just cross eyed with
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:26
			love, there's nothing that can
show any defect, otherwise,
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:29
			somebody would have to probably
slap him out of that. We don't
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			want to slip from Allah subhanaw
taala. Because that would be
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:36
			really, to be it to be honest, I
mean, I'm sure those who are
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			serious, wouldn't even mind the
slap from Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:41
			that would be better off than
actually getting involved in the
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:47
			in the Haram desire that it was.
So the way to do it would be to
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:51
			constantly be thinking about how
bad it is. Because by constantly
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:55
			thinking when we're not in that
state, generally when a person
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:58
			commits a shower, then after that
they regret it immediately
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:58
			afterwards.
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:03
			But it's about doing it in a
neutral time as well. So that may
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:08
			be by doing so we will then put
into place measures that will help
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:12
			us avoid the situation to start
with. Because generally for most
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			shouts, there are triggers.
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:18
			There are triggers, there are two
aspects there are triggers. As
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:20
			soon as you see them. As soon as
you think about them, as soon as
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:22
			they are brought in front of us,
somebody mentions them or
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:28
			whatever. They create a leap, a
relapse. And this any addiction
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:31
			study would show you that. There's
huge amounts of studies for that.
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:34
			But number two, there's also the
habit factor.
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			You can only be addicted to
something if you have a habit. And
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:44
			the knifes once it's pull it once
it's fixed. I was just reading
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:49
			about a drug addict the other day.
For the last 20 years, this woman
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:52
			has been a drug drug addict on
heroin. And basically the
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:56
			questions to her. What do you
think about when you get up in the
		
00:03:56 --> 00:04:00
			morning? I think about getting my
next fix. What do you think about
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:04
			in the afternoon, about getting my
next fix? What do you think about
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:06
			in the evening just about getting
my next fix.
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:11
			Because she says that by the time
I've managed to get it, do it.
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:14
			It's nearly time for the next one.
She has lost her children in this.
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:19
			She's lost her husband, she's lost
everything. And she has to resort
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:24
			to petty crime in order to try to
feed this habit. She has been in
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:28
			and out of prison numerous times.
But that's just all part of the
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:32
			lifestyle right now. That is what
the addiction has committed has
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:35
			created. Now we understand that to
be a we generally think that
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:38
			that's a different kind of
addiction to our addiction to
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:41
			other forms of sin that are not
considered to be illegal, that are
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:45
			not supposed to be maybe chemical
in nature. This we can understand
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:48
			we can do studies is a chemical
reaction, so on. But there's the
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:52
			same thing now that we know about
concepts of dopamine and estrogen
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:56
			and all of these other things
addiction in terms of shadow worth
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:57
			and desire.
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			They also fall into that same
thing.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			My belief is, but I don't think
anybody wants to research it. And
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:06
			the reason is that it's too much
based on faith, you're to the
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09
			modern world is too much based on
anti faith that you should be able
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:12
			to do whatever you want in the
postmodern world. So I don't think
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:14
			there's anybody who wants to
really try to link that together,
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:18
			because that's going to be seen as
introducing some lowly self, the
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:21
			Satan devil. And all of these
things are kind of mythical in
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:24
			this time and age. But we know
very much that this is what it is
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			because the reason why we do
certain things is that you get
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:30
			that rush in your brain makes you
feel good. That's all it does. It
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:33
			just makes you feel good. There's
nothing happening outside
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:35
			sometimes in some of the things
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			it's just something internal
feeling that you get by watching
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			certain things by hearing certain
things. That's all it does,
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:47
			really. So this is what am Rahim
Allah says in his Kitab alpha, he
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:50
			says that, while I'm under sobre,
Arusha, who it is Hello, Mina
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:52
			Sabri Adama to gebouw Shaha.
		
00:05:56 --> 00:06:02
			The to be patient, to restrain
yourself from the desire desire
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:07
			itself from the initial haram
desire is actually easier.
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:09
			But in hindsight only
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:14
			then to have to be then patient
and persevere against the
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:19
			difficulties that create that are
created by the desire afterwards.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:23
			Whether that be feelings, whether
that be actual manifestations of
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:26
			some harm, whatever that
consequences, it's actually easier
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:31
			to try to avoid the shadow or the
desire in the first place, then to
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:35
			try to have to deal with the
fallout, the consequence, the evil
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:38
			influence, whatever it is. And
then he says, For example, He
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:43
			says, For inertia, Hua, a desire
ima and to jiba element Whoa, cool
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:44
			button.
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:50
			It may end up creating for you or
necessitating a pain,
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:55
			or even a punishment from a legal
perspective. somebody steals
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:59
			somebody does something else,
maybe in a Muslim in a Muslim
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:02
			land, they may do something else
that are maybe tolerated in a non
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:05
			Muslim land, but not in the Muslim
land. And they'll get in
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:06
			punishment for it.
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:12
			They may steal something, they may
get beaten up for it. So range of
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:16
			Shahnawaz, it was probably easier
not just not just to have taken
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:17
			that thing in the first place,
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:23
			then to then have to deal with all
of this long term aggravation.
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:27
			But if only that could be measured
beforehand. And contrasted
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:29
			beforehand, isn't it? That, hey,
look, this is what I'm about to
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:32
			do, this is what I'm going to get
from it. But if something goes on,
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:35
			this is what I'm going to get from
it. In fact, if we do this
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:40
			comparison, when we are in the
throes of shower in desire, then
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:43
			it actually makes the shower seem
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:49
			easier. And the difficulties seem
lighter. So we actually said it's
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:53
			okay, I'll just do it, I won't get
caught. So that's the wrong time
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:57
			to think about these things in we
need to prepare for it from
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00
			beforehand so that we don't even
get closer to the trigger. And we
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			keep asking Allah subhanaw taala
for help.
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:09
			Now the one, it may, you may
commit the shower, you may commit
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:13
			that desire haram act, but then it
will actually prevent you from
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:16
			receiving a more superior act to
it afterwards.
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:22
			So we may do something. But there
was supposed to be something that
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:24
			would have given us greater
pleasure had we waited but we
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:25
			didn't.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:31
			We took the lesser form for the
immediate fix. Were imagined to
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:34
			the year I worked on a lot to who
has certain one Adama
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:40
			that one is obvious, you will then
end up wasting time because of
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:43
			this to fulfill this desire. And
afterwards, you're going to feel
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:47
			such a sense of loss of why you
wasted so much time. And welcome
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:52
			to YouTube. You know, welcome to
abundant WhatsApp and all the rest
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:56
			of it. We all know that
afterwards. At the end of the day,
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:59
			if we really honestly look back,
we feel that we've wasted a lot of
		
00:08:59 --> 00:08:59
			time today.
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:04
			We've wasted so much time today.
But at that moment, it doesn't
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:07
			seem like wasting time because
there's an immediate dopamine rush
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:10
			in the mind. There's an immediate
benefit that's being provided that
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:14
			we feel so then we only have to
suffer the consequences later.
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:17
			Another one he says is
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:23
			you may in pursuing your shadow
which this one may be to do with
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:25
			criticizing somebody abusing
somebody
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:32
			aggravating somebody that by doing
whatever you do, you may be
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34
			destroying your own honor.
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:39
			Had you kept it it would have been
Bennett more beneficial for you to
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:42
			have kept, Your Honor. I mean,
this could apply to a number of
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:46
			things. You've done an act and had
you not
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:52
			destroyed your honor in this way
to gain the shower. It would have
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:55
			been better for you to have had it
a lot of people would understand
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:58
			this. They end up doing X whether
that be
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			fornication
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			Whether that be stealing, whether
that be hooking up with the wrong
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:07
			crowds going to a place that they
shouldn't people find out. And now
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:13
			the long term reaction to it, and
the harm that's created by the
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:16
			stigma attached to it is much
worse, that you have to be patient
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:19
			over that now and deal with it, it
would have been easier to have
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:23
			dealt with not going to the
gambling place in the first place,
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:28
			or not have gone to the massage
parlor, or whatever it is that
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:31
			people are doing, it would have
been much easier to have avoided
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:35
			that one hour there, then to avoid
these now months, maybe years,
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:38
			people will never forget, even
when you want to get married or
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:41
			something like that people are
gonna say, you know, he was caught
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:44
			doing this, then the other, the
other people never forget this
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:48
			kind of stuff. Like they feel that
it's important to disclose it to
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:52
			anybody that asks or not asks. So
at the end of the day, then you
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:55
			have to deal with this. So think
about it in the long run.
		
00:10:57 --> 00:10:59
			La ilaha illa Allah and the next
one is what I was explaining
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:02
			earlier that either you're going
to
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:05
			basically be squandering your
honor.
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:10
			If you had kept that honor, it
would have been better for you. So
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:14
			there's still a loss by doing the
act, then he says,
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:19
			either by doing the shower, you
are going to maybe end up losing a
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:24
			bounty of Allah that had that
bounty remained for you, you would
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:27
			have benefited much more from it
and gain much more pleasure from
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:31
			it eventually. But you squandered
it already. Allah gave you a
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:34
			chance, you squandered that
chance, thus, you don't get a
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:38
			bigger chance. Sometimes that
could have that could be for
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:41
			example, a person didn't respect
their spouse enough.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:45
			And then after that, when they got
divorced, and now they can't find
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:48
			a better spouse than that. And now
they reminisce they want to go
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:51
			back to their spouse, but it's
impossible. Because they gave
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:52
			three divorces just like that.
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:56
			There could be so many different
things that this could apply to
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:01
			what Emma and to toric Lee, what
the illegal per economia can Yoji
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:05
			do have a couple of Eric, by you
doing whatever act it is, you may
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:11
			be opening up the path for some
lowly, despicable person to have
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:14
			some control over you that he did
not have before.
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:17
			You got involved in the wrong
crowd, now you're being
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:18
			blackmailed.
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:22
			You did the wrong thing, and some
somebody whether that be
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:25
			authorities or whoever, and are
blackmailing you to do something
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:29
			that is beyond your honor, but you
can't help it anymore. How long is
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:33
			the punishment of that now? How
long will you have to suffer that
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:35
			consequence, for that initial
mistake that we made
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:43
			another one, or it will bring
about for you such anxiety, such
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:48
			sadness, such grief and such
despair and such fear that it was
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:51
			just not worth doing the thing in
the first place.
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:56
			All of the anxiety and everything
that now it brings upon, and then
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:59
			you compare it, you will be
hitting yourself, why did I do
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:01
			that? Why did I allow myself to do
that?
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:08
			For example, one of them is
questions that we generally get
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:14
			somebody struck his wife, she went
told the police, police report,
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:17
			risk, restraining order,
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:19
			children,
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:24
			prevented children taken away, et
cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:26
			Somebody hit a child,
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			all of these different things.
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:34
			For some people, it may even end
up creating absence of knowledge.
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:38
			These are more for students.
Furthermore, if they get involved
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:41
			in something like that, then the
amount of knowledge that they
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:45
			would have lost in the process is
just not worth it. Whereas had
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:47
			they enjoyed that knowledge and
benefited themselves and others
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:48
			from it, it would have been
better.
		
00:13:50 --> 00:13:54
			You may end up this is very
critical though it sounds simple.
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:59
			In fulfilling the desire, you may
end up
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:04
			abusing a woody and a friend of
Allah subhanaw taala. And then
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:08
			Allah turns against you. Because
Allah declares war against anybody
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:10
			who troubles his earlier.
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:16
			So out of shower and desire for
ego egotistical reasons. Maybe
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:19
			they tried to correct us in a nice
way, but we didn't want to accept
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:23
			it. Or maybe we just got involved
in some kind of criticism for them
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:26
			for whatever reason. Maybe they
did do something wrong, but we
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:28
			went overboard in our criticism.
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:32
			One has to be careful. There has
to keep everything in moderation,
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:36
			otherwise, we end up losing.
That's the norm of Allah subhanho
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:39
			wa Taala in this world. If you've
done something wrong to me, I am
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:44
			allowed technically to do exactly
that much back to you. But how do
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:48
			you quantify how do you quantify
if you've taken a pound of me? 10
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:51
			pounds of me I can take 10 pounds
of you that's quantifiable. That's
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:54
			easily understood. I've taken 10
pound you took 10 pound colors
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:57
			finish. But if you've said
something to me,
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			right, when I say
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:03
			Say something back to you. But in
the way that you said it, that was
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:07
			actually lighter than the way I
said it. I said it to you in a big
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:11
			gathering. You said it to me in
front of one person. But I now
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:16
			accused you of the same thing in
front of 100 people, or online in
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:19
			front of millions of people. Now,
can you tell me which one is
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:22
			worse? Can you say you said the
same word to me?
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:26
			Right? You call me something, I
call you something back in front
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:29
			of 100 people. Now you might I
might say I only called you the
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:32
			same thing back. So I'm doing say
urges that will say you didn't say
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:36
			to me through her? No, it's had
much worse impact. Because 100
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:38
			people now know, and they're gonna
call me the same thing.
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:42
			happens in school people make
nicknames for each other.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:46
			And that's one of the worst things
you can actually do, though, it
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:50
			seems such a simple form of
laughter, and humor, and a little,
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:54
			but creating nicknames is really,
really bad. You know why? Because
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:57
			if they stick them forever, you're
probably going to be sinful for
		
00:15:57 --> 00:15:57
			them.
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:03
			Can you imagine if you just call
somebody fat to you or somebody? I
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:05
			don't know what what are the
names, you know, people people
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:08
			have these names. And the person
doesn't like it, especially if
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:09
			it's not a nice name.
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:15
			And then it sticks. Until that
name has been now used, and the
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:18
			initial person who formulated that
name, imagine what's going to
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:20
			happen to that person, he gets a
sense of everything, because
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:25
			there's a we have that tradition.
So don't ever tour Xin William.
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:31
			Another one, which we never think
about is that by doing the shower,
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:34
			this desire, we are actually
preventing another bounty of Allah
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:35
			to come to us.
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:39
			We will never never know this
actually, which is the worst
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:44
			thing, but a lot of people who,
who have come out of it and who've
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:49
			been able to stop months or years
of indulgence.
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:54
			And then they say that, you know,
the blessings that I've received,
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:58
			afterwards, what has opened up to
me, it's been amazing.
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:03
			has been amazing. But that doesn't
happen so often does it?
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:09
			Sorry, it's difficult to fathom
that because it means stopping,
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:13
			and then training. But we go by,
we know that Allah always gives
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:14
			back.
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:19
			And we know that sins, they
prevent blessings, we know that as
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:22
			well. So that's basically what it
all falls into.
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:28
			For example, it's mentioned that
there is a in one of the times of
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:31
			the Sultan's, one of the Turkish
Sultan's, I forget the name of
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:36
			this Sultan matar or somebody. He
had this idea like Amara, the
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:37
			Allah one.
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:42
			You know, like kamaruddin used to
walk around at night, as a normal
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:45
			person to check what's going on.
You know, there's time there were
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:48
			no lights. In those days, it was
easier to do that nowadays, it'd
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:51
			be difficult to unless you
disguise yourself. So he would
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:55
			walk around. And one day he came
across this guy laying on the
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:59
			floor, dead, dead. And he's
wondering why people are going
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:01
			past him. And you know, in those
days, people looked after this
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:04
			kind of people. So he was very
surprised that there's nobody
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:08
			looking after this person. Nobody
taking attending to them. And it's
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:10
			just really surprised. You know, I
know you get you get that in these
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:12
			days here. You get people who I
mean, I mean, there are some good
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:14
			souls out there who still help
people like this. They'll call the
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:16
			ambulance, they'll try to do
something. But otherwise, there
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:19
			are a lot of people who just walk
past as well in this individualist
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:22
			time that we live in. But in those
days, no. So he was quite
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:24
			surprised. So he asked people
what's going on? Oh, he was a big
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:28
			drunkard and used to visit the
prostitutes. He was a massive
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:33
			drunkard, and he used to visit the
prostitutes. So we don't want to
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:33
			deal with him.
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:37
			Like he's totally despicable
person every night, he was doing
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:42
			the same thing. Every night, he
would go into the pub, the bar or
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:45
			whatever it was, and every night
then you would see him in the
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:48
			in the prostitute house.
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:54
			So finally, the Sultani went to
his house, and he asked his wife
		
00:18:54 --> 00:18:57
			what the story was, that you know,
your husband is starting to other?
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:00
			She said, No, my husband was a
wonderful man.
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:05
			Everybody else is saying something
different. You're saying something
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:08
			different. What is going on here?
Said what he used to do is that
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:12
			the little bit of money that
whatever money he earned, he would
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:15
			go into the wine shop and buy up
as much wine as possible, bring it
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:16
			home, and he would
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:18
			drop it down the drain.
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:22
			Every day, he would do that. Then
he would go to the house of the
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:25
			prostitutes, you know, the the
place that they would be, he would
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:28
			hire one or two. And he would say,
Look, you just sit here, I'll give
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:30
			you your money. You just sit here
so that at least somebody's going
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:34
			to be saved. Every day. He used to
do that with whatever earning he
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:34
			had.
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:37
			But people didn't know that they
just thought that that's what he
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:42
			is doing. And I used to tell him,
she said the who's going to do
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:47
			your Janaza prayer. And he would
say, don't worry my janazah will
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:48
			be done by the ruler himself.
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:53
			My janazah will be done by the
ruler himself. And that's when the
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:58
			Sultan realize the predicament and
what had happened. So there's some
		
00:19:58 --> 00:20:00
			big people in the world but uh,
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:03
			Again, it will, it takes some
reliance on Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:07
			to get to the state. So he's
saying that it is, by committing a
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:12
			shadow of a desire, it's actually
going to very possibly it is going
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:17
			to cut away and prevent, block and
obstruct from us another bounty
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:20
			from Allah subhanho wa taala,
which would have been a much
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:23
			better bounty, because once you
start reveling in the bounties of
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:26
			Allah subhanaw taala. And you see
that he's giving you beyond what
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:30
			you can imagine, then that
pleasure is greater pleasure than
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:33
			anything before us. But again,
this is something that only
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:38
			somebody can tell us to believe in
it, we have to experience it. And
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:41
			in order to experience it, we have
to do the hard work first.
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:47
			Sometimes Allah gives us before
that. I mean, the other story
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:48
			about the drunken person,
		
00:20:50 --> 00:20:54
			there was a drunken person. And
one of the shakes of the area, one
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:56
			of the only of the Airy, he's
getting a dream that you need to
		
00:20:56 --> 00:21:00
			send him for Hajj. So he dismissed
the muster. It's just the random
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:05
			dream. A few days, he received the
same dream, he sees this.
		
00:21:05 --> 00:21:09
			Everybody knows this person to be
this drunken person last. I mean,
		
00:21:09 --> 00:21:12
			I sometimes remember these kinds
of people. I mean, because, you
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:15
			know, lower Clapton road where I
am, there's always somebody
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:18
			begging, there's always one or two
or three guys, and you can tell
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:23
			them drugs, they are in another
world, and they just begging. And
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:25
			some days, they just disappear and
you wish you could go and help
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:25
			them.
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:31
			But I don't know how you help such
people. You know, it's, they need
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:34
			some expertise. And even when I
looked at the Rohingya stuff, I
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:36
			was looking at this and it just
broke down. I said, Oh Allah, how
		
00:21:36 --> 00:21:40
			shall I help them? I just made dua
to Allah is Oh, Allah give us the
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:45
			Tofik to help such situations in
the way you want us to be them to
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:49
			be helped? Because one is we give
money. Okay, that's a good thing.
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:52
			Right? When is we raised
awareness? That's a good thing as
		
00:21:52 --> 00:21:55
			well. But at the end of the day,
what is the most effective thing
		
00:21:55 --> 00:21:59
			only Allah subhanaw? Taala knows?
And is it enough for us just to be
		
00:21:59 --> 00:22:03
			giving money? What else can we do?
So my dua to Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:22:03 --> 00:22:07
			was that, oh, Allah allow us to
do, because then I think, Okay,
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:10
			I'm doing all of this other work,
I don't have time to go out to
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:15
			Bangladesh and try to collect
money and you know, like, actually
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:18
			get onto this, because this has
been happening for years, not just
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:21
			in there, but there's other places
as well. So I'm doing some
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:24
			teaching all of this. So then my
daughter, Allah subhanaw, Taala
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:28
			was that, oh, Allah, allow me to
do something that is the most
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:33
			useful, allow me to fulfill my
responsibility. We have to ask
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:36
			Allah for help, right? Because
only Allah knows best.
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:42
			So this particular drunken person,
whoever he was,
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:45
			finally,
		
00:22:46 --> 00:22:51
			this particular way of Allah, the
sheikh, whoever he was, he got
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:53
			money together, and he told the
person I'm going to send you
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:57
			formula, I'm going to send you for
the to the huddle. So the person
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:03
			agreed to go. And when he got
there, he was praying in front of
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:06
			the Kaaba first or second stuff in
front of the Kaaba, and he died
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:08
			there in his salad.
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:12
			And now people are surprised
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:17
			that what happened, how did he get
such a great death yet he spent
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:22
			his entire life during these
things. So, again, the wife is
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:26
			consulted, right? Because the wife
knows more than anybody else at
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:27
			she should do at least, right.
		
00:23:29 --> 00:23:34
			So the wife said, no, no, no mas,
no salah, no, no, nothing. I can't
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:38
			think of anything good. He was
abusive as well. There was nothing
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:41
			I can think of that he was doing,
but he would do good. And then she
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:44
			must have thought for a while. And
she thought the only thing that I
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:48
			can think about is that we've got
a neighbor, very poor, and they
		
00:23:48 --> 00:23:49
			actually look after an orphan.
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:54
			And this person, my husband, he
used to spend all of his money on
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:56
			all of these haram things. You
don't get any money left in that
		
00:23:56 --> 00:24:00
			because there's never enough money
to spend on haram. But he used to
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:03
			have a bit left whatever few
pennies he had left, you'd go on
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:05
			give to the next one say spend it
on the orphan.
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:09
			I have a hope that Allah is going
to give me a good death because of
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:10
			this.
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:18
			Allah accepts that such a
seemingly insignificant act. But
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:22
			then Allah subhanaw taala gives it
to him from where he would never
		
00:24:22 --> 00:24:25
			have imagined. He was not even
intending to go for the Hajj or
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:29
			Umrah. It probably didn't have the
money either. But Allah causes
		
00:24:29 --> 00:24:33
			somebody else to send you can you
see how we may be preventing
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:39
			ourselves from bounties? From
gifts of Allah by committing
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:40
			continuing to commit the sin.
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:49
			And finally, when something which
is the biggest is that in
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:55
			committing the deed of desire, it
may eventually become a
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:59
			characteristic of yours that would
be very difficult to shed because
		
00:24:59 --> 00:24:59
			actions
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:03
			What create characteristics and
when they become a character
		
00:25:03 --> 00:25:07
			traits, then they become natural
within a person like second
		
00:25:07 --> 00:25:09
			nature, then it becomes very
difficult to remove them.
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:15
			So these are all what entertaining
Rahim Allah says are the
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:20
			destructions of following shower.
And if somebody punches over all
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:24
			of them anything that we do,
whether we're wasting time online
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:28
			or haram, or whatever it is,
you'll find that it has to fit
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:32
			into one of these. And it's just
not worth it. But the point is to
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:36
			actually think about these things
beforehand, so that we,
		
00:25:37 --> 00:25:38
			it doesn't lead us to them.
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:46
			The next point is, as we said, the
economic circle at bay in a gym
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:51
			bag that your worst enemy, the
worst of your enemies is that
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:54
			knifes, which is between your two
sides, it's not enough. So that's
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:58
			basically your worst enemy. And
the reason is that it is
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:06
			it's the enemy inside. Enemies
inside are dangerous. As we all
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:08
			know, when you have the enemy
outside, there's lots of
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:11
			Prevention's you can do when you
have somebody inside that is
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:13
			helping the enemy, then you're in
big trouble. And that's how so
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:17
			many wars have been lost. That's
how Sultan people. That's how he
		
00:26:17 --> 00:26:20
			lost his glorious, glorious
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:25
			rule. That's how he eventually
died. Despite his bravery, he had
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:29
			everything going for him. But
people on the inside, were bought.
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:32
			And when you have an enemy inside,
and you don't know, and that's
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:36
			triggering, and that is one of the
worst. And we have that in our own
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:38
			homes. We have that in our own
bodies in our own cells, which is
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:42
			our nerves. And then he says that
what's really strange here is that
		
00:26:42 --> 00:26:44
			you actually have control over
this.
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:47
			Right? You actually have control
because he says we're in the
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:51
			Masada either equally authority
color, it's only become your worst
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:55
			enemy because you've started
obeying. So we know that. It's
		
00:26:55 --> 00:26:57
			like somebody's pointing it out
already for us.
		
00:26:58 --> 00:27:01
			So don't people didn't know. But
we know.
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:07
			And that's the difficulty of
despite the fact that you know,
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:10
			it's so difficult otherwise, but
may Allah subhanaw taala make it
		
00:27:10 --> 00:27:11
			easy for us.
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:16
			Save that for many things in order
to wean ourselves off of certain
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:17
			things.
		
00:27:18 --> 00:27:21
			Sometimes what helps is to
actually go into what they call
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:22
			rehabilitation.
		
00:27:23 --> 00:27:28
			Right? But how would you get
rehabilitation from? For example,
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:35
			give me a desert give me a give me
an example of a particular vise or
		
00:27:35 --> 00:27:40
			a shower or something that is
considered legal in a sense, and
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:42
			you can't find rehabilitation for
it.
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:47
			Any any ideas of certain Shaohua
it's understanding for alcoholic
		
00:27:47 --> 00:27:52
			there's lots of help centers. If
you're into drugs, there's lots
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:53
			lots of places
		
00:27:55 --> 00:27:57
			one would be listening to music.
How do you going to get some
		
00:27:57 --> 00:28:00
			rehabilitation for that? There's
no place so we're gonna take you
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:03
			off your addiction and musics not
even considered a bad thing.
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:09
			Looking at the Haram okay, maybe
there's for * addiction, maybe
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:11
			this for that. I don't know if
there are any places, but maybe
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:14
			there is for * addiction. I'm
sure there's going to be some some
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:17
			kind of thing out there. But what
about not looking at *, but
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:22
			just looking at the lesser than
that in the streets can't help it?
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:25
			Which is such a common problem.
How would you deal with that?
		
00:28:26 --> 00:28:28
			Which rehabilitation? Do you go
to?
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:34
			SubhanAllah. Because even when
you're watching the news that you
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:38
			can get involved in that kind of
stuff, even on pictures, and so
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:39
			on.
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:45
			So Subhanallah, I think what that
requires is you need some
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:48
			rehabilitation, you'll have to
create your own rehabilitation for
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:48
			that.
		
00:28:49 --> 00:28:52
			People have to create their own.
They either go out three days in
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:54
			your mouth or something, no phone,
nothing.
		
00:28:56 --> 00:29:02
			Staying in the masjid. And there's
a concerted effort not to look out
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:05
			because you've got a time period.
If you try to do it at home, when
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:09
			you're normal, I'm not going to
look, then it's just how long are
		
00:29:09 --> 00:29:11
			you going to look for it several
months, it's for the rest of your
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:15
			life. But when you've got a fixed
measure that I'm in Jamaica for
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:19
			three days or 10 days, so I'm not
going to look I mean hudge for
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:24
			three weeks, two weeks, whatever
it is, I'm in Omaha for two weeks.
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:25
			I'm not going to do it.
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:32
			In fact, something that's Boyle's
a lot of people's hedge is this
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:35
			because you got men and women
everywhere. And they're all Muslim
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:40
			as well. So they're all potential
suitors in a sense. How difficult
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:44
			is that? So that's why a lot of
Allah mentioned is that in your
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:47
			hedge, be very careful because you
could be just literally releasing
		
00:29:47 --> 00:29:51
			all the rewards you're receiving
by what you're doing by just
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:55
			looking around because there's so
much to see. Right? So
		
00:29:57 --> 00:29:59
			But if a person goes there with
this thought that I want to do it
		
00:29:59 --> 00:30:00
			properly.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:03
			And for three weeks, two weeks,
whatever it is five weeks, I'm
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:04
			just not gonna,
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:08
			then they will find that the
resilience they build up there can
		
00:30:08 --> 00:30:12
			carry on elsewhere, you come back
from Jamaat, you come back from a
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:15
			three day conference, for example,
a program, spiritual retreat,
		
00:30:15 --> 00:30:19
			whatever it may be, and you just
haven't done it, then it then
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:21
			becomes easy, as long as you've
got the resolve to continue like
		
00:30:21 --> 00:30:21
			that.
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:24
			So these are just some ways.
		
00:30:26 --> 00:30:30
			And that won't be enough, you'd
have to do huge amount of dua to
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:32
			Allah subhanaw taala to make this
useful,
		
00:30:34 --> 00:30:38
			because it's just the shape the
shape on and the knifes, when once
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:40
			the shaytaan has got the knifes,
then it becomes very difficult.
		
00:30:40 --> 00:30:43
			shaytaan is easy to say Oh to be
low ministry upon your regime.
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:47
			But when it's the knifes even our
beloved doesn't work in that case,
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:49
			because it's not a shaytani
problem. She doesn't just started
		
00:30:49 --> 00:30:53
			it off. Now it's an addiction
issue. So Altavilla doesn't help
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:53
			in that case.
		
00:30:54 --> 00:30:56
			Because you're saying from the
shaytaan Shetlands out of the
		
00:30:56 --> 00:31:00
			picture already, he's done his job
and gone away. So that addiction
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:03
			can only be generally dealt with
through some kind of
		
00:31:03 --> 00:31:07
			rehabilitation, some kind of
abandonment for a period of time.
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:11
			And then after that, you come back
and try to do it. That's what
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:13
			helps. And generally, the other
one mentioned that if you're able
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:16
			to avoid something seven times,
because you will still keep
		
00:31:16 --> 00:31:20
			getting the urges. If you tried to
do it seven times. If you managed
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:23
			to overcome you enough, seven
times afterwards, then you will
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:27
			get used to it because then you'll
stop feeling like I need to look,
		
00:31:27 --> 00:31:31
			you'll stop feeling like I need to
do this. Because you've managed to
		
00:31:31 --> 00:31:35
			see your knifes has been shown as
well that it hasn't really harmed
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:36
			me to not look.
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:41
			It hasn't benefited me to have not
looked because he doesn't benefit
		
00:31:41 --> 00:31:45
			anyway. In fact, one of the most
sad and he says that we're holy
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:49
			called insulin or die Eva, you
know the Quranic verse that Ensign
		
00:31:49 --> 00:31:50
			has been created.
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:51
			Week.
		
00:31:54 --> 00:31:57
			He says that, how would you
explain that? He says, haven't you
		
00:31:57 --> 00:32:00
			seen that a man looks at women
when they go past knowing full
		
00:32:00 --> 00:32:03
			well if you ask them that they've
got no chance of having them. They
		
00:32:03 --> 00:32:07
			may be somebody else's wife maybe.
Or they may just never marry you.
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:09
			Because not every woman you see is
going to marry you. I know this is
		
00:32:09 --> 00:32:12
			a very man thing, right? Generally
speaking, though, it's a very,
		
00:32:12 --> 00:32:15
			very woman thing now as well. It
has become a very common thing.
		
00:32:17 --> 00:32:20
			University students are constantly
I mean, it's not just university
		
00:32:20 --> 00:32:22
			students, but this is where you
get this idea from.
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:26
			Not to say you get this idea in
university, it's just that it's
		
00:32:26 --> 00:32:29
			that kind of environment it
creates, then everybody's looking
		
00:32:29 --> 00:32:30
			for a suitor.
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:36
			So then you look at everybody
potentially like that, and that's
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:36
			a problem.
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:38
			So
		
00:32:40 --> 00:32:43
			he says, Have you seen a man they
look at everything that goes past?
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:50
			And they have they know they can't
get it? So look how weak there are
		
00:32:50 --> 00:32:54
			helical insert another ephah May
Allah subhanaw taala strengthen us
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:57
			may Allah subhanaw taala allow
allow us to weed out all of these
		
00:32:57 --> 00:33:01
			weeds in our life because there's
many people mashallah they tried
		
00:33:01 --> 00:33:05
			to do good they try to their their
regular on their salads that God
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:10
			hudge fasting, they try to avoid
the big hands, but there are these
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:13
			smaller weeds that are I mean, I
mean we call them weeds but we
		
00:33:13 --> 00:33:14
			don't know how detrimental they
are.
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:21
			So may Allah subhanaw taala allow
us all to weed our gardens our
		
00:33:21 --> 00:33:23
			Jana inshallah to remove all of
these weeds so that we can
		
00:33:23 --> 00:33:26
			actually go into Genoa that Rana
and Al hamdu lillahi rabbil
		
00:33:26 --> 00:33:31
			aalameen Allahu Mantis salaam
women because they are the journey
		
00:33:31 --> 00:33:35
			with a Crom Subhan Allah he

			limiter so you didn't know
Mohamed, why'd you say you didn't
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:39
			know Mohammed or Burdick was

			O Allah, forgive us our sins of

			characteristics that please you,

00:35:33 --> 00:35:36
			ask that you make every year in
fact every day of us better than
