00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			You know, Yusuf alaihis salam,
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:03
			at the end of his life, what does
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:04
			he want?
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:06
			It's just one thing he wants from Allah.
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:09
			One thing only.
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			And he begs Allah for it.
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:12
			He says,
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			cause me to die upon Islam,
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22
			and admit me with the righteous.
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			Let me get into the paradise with the
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			prophets and the messengers and the pious and
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:27
			the noble ones.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:31
			That's all I want.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:33
			Years of suffering?
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			No worries.
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			Have always been good to me. I just
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			want one thing.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			Guarantee my death upon Islam.
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:50
			See this Tawafani Muslim? He proved in his
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:51
			life that he actually wants it.
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			He went through all these without
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			a single negative thought about Allah
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			He went through all of these sufferings,
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			Not a single complaint
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:06
			accepted at all.
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			He even preferred a calamity
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:13
			to save his Iman. He proved himself
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			that he really wants Islam.
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			He said, I'd rather sit in prison,
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			9 years, and lose my freedom
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			than to be out there losing my iman.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			So accept that bit of sacrifice.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			Enter in your life, where's the sacrifice?
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			Where's the sacrifice?
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			Come to the masjid and it's a difficulty
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:43
			upon people.
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			Where is the sacrifice you're showing Allah
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:48
			that you really want
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			You need to pay a price for a
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			price. What's the price that you're paying?
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:59
			What's this immense sacrifice you're doing for the
		
00:01:59 --> 00:01:59
			deen of Allah
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:01
			for yourself
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:04
			to prove that into your you're really genuinely
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:05
			upholding
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:07
			in your life.
