My beloved brothers and sisters, I would like

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

to conclude with this:

00:00:09 --> 00:00:11

When a person can't find a deep sense

00:00:11 --> 00:00:12

of meaning,

00:00:12 --> 00:00:14

they distract themselves with pleasure.

00:00:16 --> 00:00:17

If you look around today,

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

the sad reality is

00:00:20 --> 00:00:21

that all of these worldly pleasures

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

have distracted the minds of many

00:00:25 --> 00:00:27

from that which is a reality.

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

Just ask yourself the question,

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

why is the wine and alcohol industry a

00:00:33 --> 00:00:33

$1,000,000,000

00:00:33 --> 00:00:34

industry?

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

Why is the game industry a $1,000,000,000 industry?

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

Why is the sports industry

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

a $1,000,000,000 industry?

00:00:42 --> 00:00:43

Why is the

00:00:44 --> 00:00:46

* industry a $1,000,000,000

00:00:46 --> 00:00:47

industry?

00:00:48 --> 00:00:49

Why is the drug industry

00:00:49 --> 00:00:51

a $1,000,000,000 industry?

00:00:51 --> 00:00:53

So much so that cocaine

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

is known as

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

Britain's open

00:00:57 --> 00:00:59

secret. Why is that, my beloved brothers and

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

sisters?

00:01:01 --> 00:01:03

All of these different things that we mentioned,

00:01:03 --> 00:01:04

these different industries,

00:01:05 --> 00:01:07

have distracted the minds of the people from

00:01:07 --> 00:01:08

the reality that they're facing.

00:01:09 --> 00:01:10

They are looking for that which

00:01:11 --> 00:01:12

fills that void,

00:01:13 --> 00:01:13

that which

00:01:14 --> 00:01:15

gives them

00:01:15 --> 00:01:16

that spiritual

00:01:17 --> 00:01:18

satisfaction and contentment,

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

and that's something that money can't buy.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:22

I remember having a conversation

00:01:23 --> 00:01:25

with a relative that is not Muslim.

00:01:25 --> 00:01:27

What is it that you do in your

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28

free time?

00:01:29 --> 00:01:30

Her response was,

00:01:31 --> 00:01:33

I have to occupy my mind by watching

00:01:33 --> 00:01:35

Netflix movies, and if I don't,

00:01:36 --> 00:01:38

it might lead me to Junun, to craziness.

00:01:40 --> 00:01:42

All of these different things that people occupy

00:01:42 --> 00:01:43

themselves with

00:01:44 --> 00:01:45

is that which

00:01:46 --> 00:01:49

occupies the mind and distracts you from what

00:01:49 --> 00:01:51

you really, really need in your life,

00:01:51 --> 00:01:54

and that is Allah Subh'anaHu Wa Ta'la.

00:01:56 --> 00:01:57

The way your heart has been created,

00:01:58 --> 00:02:00

it's been created in a way that it

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

craves for its creator.

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

That's all you need in order to taste

00:02:04 --> 00:02:07

that spiritual contentment that every single one of

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

us is craving for.

00:02:10 --> 00:02:12

May Allah Subhana Wa Ta'la allow us

00:02:12 --> 00:02:15

to act upon this. Allah Subhana Wa Ta'la

00:02:15 --> 00:02:17

tells in the Quran, giving us the solution

00:02:17 --> 00:02:18

to all of these problems that we are

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

facing.

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

And Amir As Salihan mindikrin

00:02:23 --> 00:02:24

auntha

00:02:25 --> 00:02:26

wahuamu'minun

00:02:26 --> 00:02:27

falanuhayyahnaohayat

00:02:28 --> 00:02:28

and tayiba,

00:02:29 --> 00:02:31

Whoever from the male and female they come

00:02:31 --> 00:02:33

with Iman and also they do righteous deeds,

00:02:34 --> 00:02:36

Allah Subhana Wa Ta'la will give them that

00:02:36 --> 00:02:38

happier life that they are looking for.

00:02:39 --> 00:02:40

And the opposite is also mentioned.

00:02:46 --> 00:02:48

Whoever turns away from Remembrance,

00:02:49 --> 00:02:50

he will live a depressed life.

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakat Assalamu Alaikum

00:02:55 --> 00:02:57

We at the Knowledge College have managed

00:02:57 --> 00:02:58

to revolutionize

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

the way Islamic Studies is taught in the

00:03:00 --> 00:03:01

West Alhamdulillah

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

You see, before the Knowledge College, you'd have

00:03:04 --> 00:03:07

to find a teacher which is a hard

00:03:07 --> 00:03:09

enough task as it is and if you

00:03:09 --> 00:03:10

found that teacher,

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

you'd have to hope that he would actually

00:03:13 --> 00:03:15

finish the book that he was teaching

00:03:15 --> 00:03:18

which again was not very likely.

00:03:18 --> 00:03:20

But now, Alhamdulillah, you can study and seek

00:03:20 --> 00:03:22

knowledge from the comfort of your own home

00:03:22 --> 00:03:24

and you're not just watching videos

00:03:25 --> 00:03:27

that have been pre recorded but you're actually

00:03:27 --> 00:03:29

being taught live where you can actually engage

00:03:29 --> 00:03:31

with your teachers

00:03:31 --> 00:03:35

and with your fellow students in the communities

00:03:35 --> 00:03:36

that we've built for you guys online.

00:03:37 --> 00:03:39

If you'd be interested in seeking knowledge and

00:03:39 --> 00:03:42

00:03:47 --> 00:03:49

00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
