Also, what I want to make mention of

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

my brother's message is the fact that you

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

guys have chosen

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

to attend this gathering

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

Friday night

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

is honestly something that should be commended

00:00:13 --> 00:00:14

and praiseworthy.

00:00:16 --> 00:00:18

We know what many in the Shabbat are

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

doing on a Friday night.

00:00:20 --> 00:00:23

This is the night that many decide to

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

enjoy themselves, and I put that in quotation

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

marks.

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

Many are up to no good.

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

So the fact that you're sitting here, wallahi,

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

it really shows that there is goodness in

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

your hearts.

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

Normally, after working throughout the week 9 to

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

5, you just want to relax on a

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

Friday night. Right?

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

And it's not always easy.

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

It's not always easy to come to the

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

house of Allah azza wa jal, especially in

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

the evening after a long day to sit

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

here to learn about Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:00:53 --> 00:00:54

and his messenger

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

teachings.

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

And I'll tell you guys this, my brothers

00:00:58 --> 00:00:59

and my sisters, especially

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

when there is excessive raflah heedlessness

00:01:03 --> 00:01:05

when the people have become

00:01:06 --> 00:01:07

so trapped

00:01:07 --> 00:01:10

by the different types and forms of fit

00:01:10 --> 00:01:12

in, worshiping Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala in these

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

times is so much more rewarding.

00:01:15 --> 00:01:17

The messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam told us,

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

alujouralaadir

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

mashaka.

00:01:20 --> 00:01:22

When he's rewarded in accordance to how much

00:01:22 --> 00:01:24

difficulty and how

00:01:25 --> 00:01:26

much hardship he experiences

00:01:27 --> 00:01:29

when doing acts of worship.

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

Right?

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

This is why subhanAllah there's such a huge

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

reward in remembering Allah azza wa jinn when

00:01:35 --> 00:01:36

you go to the markets.

00:01:37 --> 00:01:38

It's such a huge reward,

00:01:39 --> 00:01:41

great reward just for remembering Allah azza wa

00:01:41 --> 00:01:43

jal when you go to the markets. Why?

00:01:43 --> 00:01:45

Because it is a place of rafla when

00:01:45 --> 00:01:46

the people have become so he

00:01:48 --> 00:01:50

So here without a shadow of a doubt,

00:01:50 --> 00:01:51

it is something that,

00:01:51 --> 00:01:52

you know, it is praiseworthy,

00:01:53 --> 00:01:54

something that should be commended.

00:01:55 --> 00:01:56

So my brothers and my sisters, today the

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

topic is about

00:01:58 --> 00:01:59

how we can

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

really and truly love

00:02:01 --> 00:02:04

our messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06

I know that the 12th of rabi'allahu

00:02:08 --> 00:02:09

has gone by.

00:02:09 --> 00:02:12

Is that the only time when we worship

00:02:12 --> 00:02:14

Allah subhan Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala? Is that the

00:02:14 --> 00:02:15

only time

00:02:16 --> 00:02:17

when we show

00:02:17 --> 00:02:20

love and affection to our beloved Muhammad sallallahu

00:02:20 --> 00:02:21

alaihi wasallam?

00:02:22 --> 00:02:23

My brothers and my sisters, there are

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

365 days in the year.

00:02:27 --> 00:02:28

There are 365

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

days

00:02:30 --> 00:02:31

in the year.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:33

Does it make sense, my brothers and my

00:02:33 --> 00:02:36

sisters that only we dedicate one day,

00:02:36 --> 00:02:37

we show our love

00:02:38 --> 00:02:39

and our affection

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

and our support

00:02:41 --> 00:02:43

to the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. Or

00:02:43 --> 00:02:46

maybe let's just say every Thursday

00:02:46 --> 00:02:47

or should

00:02:48 --> 00:02:51

our support and our love and affection of

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

the messian sallallahu alaihi wa sallam be something

00:02:54 --> 00:02:55

that is continuous,

00:02:55 --> 00:02:56

something that is

00:02:56 --> 00:02:57

consistent

00:02:58 --> 00:02:59

right throughout the year.

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

Every moment in our lives, we try our

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

utmost best

00:03:03 --> 00:03:05

to do that, which is in line with

00:03:05 --> 00:03:07

what the messianess sallallahu

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

alaihi wasallam came with. So I'm going to

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

inshallah wata'ala

00:03:11 --> 00:03:13

mention some points. Perhaps my brothers and my

00:03:13 --> 00:03:14

sisters, this will

00:03:14 --> 00:03:15

increase

00:03:15 --> 00:03:17

our love of the messenger

00:03:17 --> 00:03:18

sallallahu

00:03:18 --> 00:03:19

alayhi wasallam.

00:03:21 --> 00:03:23

Point number 1 my brothers and my sisters,

00:03:24 --> 00:03:25

we must

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

come to realization and accept

00:03:28 --> 00:03:29

and learn

00:03:29 --> 00:03:32

that the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:03:33 --> 00:03:34

has an extremely

00:03:34 --> 00:03:35

high status

00:03:36 --> 00:03:38

amongst us all.

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

He is the most honorable individual

00:03:43 --> 00:03:45

that has ever walked on the face of

00:03:45 --> 00:03:46

this earth.

00:03:47 --> 00:03:48

There is no one

00:03:48 --> 00:03:50

who who is more honorable than the messenger

00:03:50 --> 00:03:52

sallallahu alaihi wasallam and there won't be

00:03:53 --> 00:03:53

anyone

00:03:54 --> 00:03:55

that will be more virtuous

00:03:56 --> 00:03:58

and more honorable than the messenger salallahu alaihi

00:03:58 --> 00:03:59

wasallam.

00:03:59 --> 00:04:02

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala chose him.

00:04:03 --> 00:04:05

Out of all of mankind,

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

ikhtawahumimbayniqalimbayni

00:04:07 --> 00:04:08

khalday.

00:04:09 --> 00:04:11

Even the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam, he said

00:04:11 --> 00:04:12

about himself,

00:04:12 --> 00:04:13

Ana Sayyidoo

00:04:14 --> 00:04:15

Walidi Adam.

00:04:15 --> 00:04:17

I am the leader of the children of

00:04:17 --> 00:04:18

Adam

00:04:19 --> 00:04:21

on the day of resurrection Yom Alekayama,

00:04:22 --> 00:04:24

wa'awwalu manu shakwa an Ruqaba. I'm the first

00:04:24 --> 00:04:25

person

00:04:26 --> 00:04:27

that will come out

00:04:28 --> 00:04:28

of the grave.

00:04:33 --> 00:04:35

I'm the 1st person who will be allowed

00:04:35 --> 00:04:35

to intercede.

00:04:37 --> 00:04:39

The messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam my brothers

00:04:39 --> 00:04:39

and my sisters,

00:04:40 --> 00:04:43

right, is the most noble, the most honorable

00:04:43 --> 00:04:45

and the most virtuous individual.

00:04:48 --> 00:04:50

Anyone who doubts this my brothers and my

00:04:50 --> 00:04:50

sisters,

00:04:51 --> 00:04:52

he is not a Muslim.

00:04:53 --> 00:04:56

This is a core fundamental belief

00:04:57 --> 00:04:59

of any Muslim that walks on the face

00:04:59 --> 00:05:01

of this earth and it has to be.

00:05:01 --> 00:05:03

And if that's not the case, he has

00:05:03 --> 00:05:04

only himself to play.

00:05:06 --> 00:05:08

So that's number 1 my brothers and my

00:05:08 --> 00:05:09

sisters. Number 2,

00:05:21 --> 00:05:22

so many hardships,

00:05:23 --> 00:05:24

so many difficulties,

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

right? So many trials and tribulations

00:05:27 --> 00:05:28

just so

00:05:29 --> 00:05:30

we could

00:05:31 --> 00:05:32

practice an Islam

00:05:33 --> 00:05:35

or should I maybe say,

00:05:35 --> 00:05:36

Abu Abduh.

00:05:37 --> 00:05:37

Right?

00:05:39 --> 00:05:40

So we could

00:05:41 --> 00:05:43

receive an Islam on a plate.

00:05:44 --> 00:05:46

My brothers and my sisters, if we look

00:05:46 --> 00:05:47

at what happened to the messenger sallallahu alaihi

00:05:47 --> 00:05:48

wa sallam,

00:05:49 --> 00:05:50

at the beginning

00:05:51 --> 00:05:52

of his dua,

00:05:52 --> 00:05:54

look at all the troubles that he went

00:05:55 --> 00:05:57

through. Now ask yourself the question,

00:05:58 --> 00:06:00

am I being tortured?

00:06:00 --> 00:06:02

Am I being harmed for practicing my religion?

00:06:03 --> 00:06:05

Wallahi, compared to that,

00:06:05 --> 00:06:08

we should at times hold our heads in

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

shame.

00:06:09 --> 00:06:11

They my brothers and my sisters were tortured.

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

Look what happened to

00:06:13 --> 00:06:14

the 1st

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

Martyr

00:06:16 --> 00:06:17

in Islam.

00:06:19 --> 00:06:20

SubhanAllah.

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

Amma,

00:06:23 --> 00:06:24

right? His mother is Sumayya

00:06:25 --> 00:06:26

Radi al Mahu

00:06:26 --> 00:06:28

Ta'ana Anh Home Ajmerein.

00:06:29 --> 00:06:32

What happened to this lady my brothers and

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

my sisters,

00:06:33 --> 00:06:35

who was the first Marta

00:06:35 --> 00:06:36

in Islam?

00:06:37 --> 00:06:38

Does anybody know?

00:06:39 --> 00:06:41

She held on to her religion brothers and

00:06:41 --> 00:06:42

sisters.

00:06:42 --> 00:06:44

She was then captured by Quraysh.

00:06:45 --> 00:06:47

They tied her down on the ground.

00:06:48 --> 00:06:50

You know what they've done?

00:06:50 --> 00:06:51

They took an arrow

00:06:52 --> 00:06:55

and they striped it in between her

00:06:57 --> 00:06:59

legs. Striked it between her legs, brother and

00:06:59 --> 00:06:59

sister.

00:07:01 --> 00:07:02

The pain that she went through,

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

the hurt,

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

this is a huge huge trial, brothers and

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

sisters.

00:07:08 --> 00:07:09

And even then

00:07:10 --> 00:07:11

she did not

00:07:11 --> 00:07:12

conform

00:07:13 --> 00:07:15

to what the mushriks believed

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

SubhanAllah.

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19

Look at Bilal

00:07:19 --> 00:07:20

RadiAllahu

00:07:20 --> 00:07:21

Ta'ala Anhu.

00:07:22 --> 00:07:25

Bilal RadiAllahu Ta'ala Anhu under the blazing heat

00:07:25 --> 00:07:28

brothers and sisters, under the blazing

00:07:28 --> 00:07:29

heat.

00:07:30 --> 00:07:31

He's being tortured

00:07:32 --> 00:07:32

by his

00:07:35 --> 00:07:37

master, and he still never let go.

00:07:38 --> 00:07:39

A big

00:07:39 --> 00:07:41

huge rock is brought,

00:07:42 --> 00:07:43

and then it is placed

00:07:43 --> 00:07:45

under the scorching heat

00:07:46 --> 00:07:47

on top of Bilal.

00:07:48 --> 00:07:50

And even then he says, Uhadul Ahad.

00:07:52 --> 00:07:54

The one and only, the one and only

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

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:07:57 --> 00:07:58

He never budged.

00:07:59 --> 00:08:01

He didn't let go of his religion brothers

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

and sisters.

00:08:03 --> 00:08:05

The messenger sallallahu alaihi wa

00:08:15 --> 00:08:17

Was humiliated, was tortured.

00:08:18 --> 00:08:19

He wasn't just

00:08:20 --> 00:08:22

verbally abused, but also physically

00:08:25 --> 00:08:27

agreed. Let's now stand over some incidents that

00:08:27 --> 00:08:29

took place. One time the messenger sallallahu alaihi

00:08:29 --> 00:08:30

wa sallam

00:08:31 --> 00:08:32

tried to gather everybody

00:08:34 --> 00:08:34

so he could

00:08:35 --> 00:08:37

admonish them in front of the Kaaba.

00:08:39 --> 00:08:41

You know what he said to them?

00:08:42 --> 00:08:43

If I was to tell you now

00:08:44 --> 00:08:45

that there is an army,

00:08:46 --> 00:08:46

Turidu

00:08:47 --> 00:08:49

and Tuhir alaikum.

00:08:49 --> 00:08:50

There's an

00:08:50 --> 00:08:52

army round the corner that wants to attack

00:08:52 --> 00:08:54

you. Would you believe me?

00:08:55 --> 00:08:58

He said, Majar Rabna Alaykal Assifqah.

00:08:59 --> 00:09:00

We've only ever come to know

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

that Muhammad,

00:09:02 --> 00:09:04

may peace and blessings be upon him, is

00:09:04 --> 00:09:07

a truthful individual. Why shouldn't we believe you?

00:09:08 --> 00:09:10

He was a Sadiq Al Amin before prophecy.

00:09:11 --> 00:09:13

Truthful and trustworthy before Islamic.

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

Right?

00:09:16 --> 00:09:16

SubhanAllah,

00:09:18 --> 00:09:19

they said, we believe you

00:09:20 --> 00:09:22

and then he told them that I'm a

00:09:22 --> 00:09:22

prophet.

00:09:27 --> 00:09:29

Someone was now come, someone was come to

00:09:29 --> 00:09:30

warn you.

00:09:30 --> 00:09:32

From the punishment that awaits you.

00:09:33 --> 00:09:36

If you don't embrace La ilaha illallah.

00:09:39 --> 00:09:41

Out of all people brothers and sisters,

00:09:42 --> 00:09:45

you know, who tried to humiliate him? Arabo

00:09:45 --> 00:09:46

people,

00:09:46 --> 00:09:47

his own uncle.

00:09:51 --> 00:09:52

Being abused

00:09:54 --> 00:09:56

by your relatives, my brothers and my sisters

00:09:56 --> 00:09:58

is far worse for one to take

00:09:58 --> 00:10:00

and when it comes from someone who you

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

don't know. This is what the poet says,

00:10:07 --> 00:10:09

You being oppressed

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

by your relatives is so much more painful.

00:10:19 --> 00:10:21

Have you guys heard of the Indian sword?

00:10:23 --> 00:10:24

Back in the day,

00:10:25 --> 00:10:27

it would be the Indian sword that is

00:10:27 --> 00:10:30

used as a measuring stick to determine

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

as to

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

whether

00:10:33 --> 00:10:35

this sword is sharp or not.

00:10:38 --> 00:10:39

It was the sword

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

that was used as an example.

00:10:42 --> 00:10:44

It was the sword to have.

00:10:45 --> 00:10:47

It was the most impactful

00:10:48 --> 00:10:50

and most effective in war, the Indian sword.

00:10:51 --> 00:10:52

The poet is saying,

00:10:52 --> 00:10:55

for you to be struck by this Indian

00:10:55 --> 00:10:55

sword

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

is less painful

00:10:58 --> 00:11:00

than you being what harmed

00:11:01 --> 00:11:02

or abused

00:11:02 --> 00:11:03

or oppressed

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

by your own relatives.

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

Or like and have brothers and sisters,

00:11:09 --> 00:11:10

especially when you start to give dua to

00:11:10 --> 00:11:13

them and humiliate you, they laugh at you,

00:11:13 --> 00:11:15

they ridicule you, They jest and they mock.

00:11:16 --> 00:11:17

It can be so, so difficult.

00:11:18 --> 00:11:20

And now SubhanAllah is happening

00:11:20 --> 00:11:22

in front of everybody.

00:11:23 --> 00:11:24

I see the Moawas.

00:11:26 --> 00:11:27

I know some of you guys may have

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

been in this position,

00:11:29 --> 00:11:31

right? I have been as well.

00:11:32 --> 00:11:33

I remember SubhanAllah

00:11:34 --> 00:11:36

when I came back from Yemen, this is

00:11:36 --> 00:11:37

many years ago back in 2014.

00:11:39 --> 00:11:41

It's like some of my relatives were waiting

00:11:41 --> 00:11:41

to

00:11:42 --> 00:11:43

make mockery out of me.

00:11:44 --> 00:11:47

I have female as of that, occasions where

00:11:47 --> 00:11:48

everybody gets together.

00:11:50 --> 00:11:51

This is, hello, man.

00:11:52 --> 00:11:54

This is what I would hear. I haven't

00:11:54 --> 00:11:55

even opened my mouth.

00:11:56 --> 00:11:58

Haram. Haram. Haram. Haram. Police.

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

To infuriate you.

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

So it can really, really hurt. And this

00:12:14 --> 00:12:15

is exactly what his uncle Dante,

00:12:16 --> 00:12:17

humiliated in front of everyone.

00:12:19 --> 00:12:19

Right?

00:12:20 --> 00:12:22

Then you also have brothers and sisters. Oh,

00:12:24 --> 00:12:26

My wife told me to call her so

00:12:26 --> 00:12:28

she can listen to it.

00:12:28 --> 00:12:29

Bear with me.

00:12:46 --> 00:12:48

Bear with me, brothers and sisters.

00:12:53 --> 00:12:55

Right. That is one example, brothers and sisters,

00:12:55 --> 00:12:57

of the verbal abuse

00:12:57 --> 00:12:58

that he experienced.

00:13:00 --> 00:13:02

Then you also have the physical abuse.

00:13:05 --> 00:13:07

Imagine now brothers and sisters, right?

00:13:07 --> 00:13:10

While his daughter is watching Fatima taralliAllahu

00:13:10 --> 00:13:11

ta'ala.

00:13:14 --> 00:13:17

Messenger salallahu alayhi wasalam is praying in front

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

of the Kaaba.

00:13:18 --> 00:13:19

And then you had some of the

00:13:21 --> 00:13:22

Qurayshis

00:13:23 --> 00:13:25

are sitting around daring one another.

00:13:25 --> 00:13:27

They were looking at him, daring one

00:13:28 --> 00:13:28

saying,

00:13:29 --> 00:13:31

who's going to get,

00:13:31 --> 00:13:32

you know, the

00:13:33 --> 00:13:34

waste and the intestines

00:13:35 --> 00:13:36

of the sheep.

00:13:37 --> 00:13:38

Not a butcher, maybe you have a butcher

00:13:38 --> 00:13:40

over here and he can testify to what

00:13:40 --> 00:13:40

I'm saying.

00:13:41 --> 00:13:43

After you slice up the

00:13:44 --> 00:13:46

lamb or the sheep or the cow, there

00:13:46 --> 00:13:48

are parts that are thrown in the bin

00:13:48 --> 00:13:49

that you cannot sell to the customer.

00:13:52 --> 00:13:53

Remember, SubhanAllah,

00:13:54 --> 00:13:55

once upon a time, my dad had a

00:13:55 --> 00:13:56

grocery store

00:13:57 --> 00:13:58

and then at the back here the butcher.

00:13:59 --> 00:14:00

Right?

00:14:01 --> 00:14:03

Butcher would what cut off the sheep, would

00:14:03 --> 00:14:05

remove the skin, and there will be parts

00:14:05 --> 00:14:06

that

00:14:07 --> 00:14:09

would be thrown into the bin. Sometimes what

00:14:09 --> 00:14:11

will happen is the butcher would forget

00:14:13 --> 00:14:15

all of this filth inside of the grocery

00:14:15 --> 00:14:16

store.

00:14:17 --> 00:14:18

You walk in.

00:14:19 --> 00:14:21

It is an absolutely

00:14:21 --> 00:14:22

disgusting smell.

00:14:24 --> 00:14:26

Right? For the next half an hour, my

00:14:26 --> 00:14:28

dad would be perfuming the place

00:14:28 --> 00:14:29

because of how much he stinks.

00:14:32 --> 00:14:34

So they're daring one another who's going to

00:14:35 --> 00:14:38

take it and place it on top of

00:14:38 --> 00:14:39

Mohammed while he's praying.

00:14:46 --> 00:14:47

So one of them went,

00:14:48 --> 00:14:48

came back

00:14:49 --> 00:14:51

and then he poured it on top of

00:14:51 --> 00:14:52

the prophet salallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:14:54 --> 00:14:56

Fatima radiAllahu ta'ala anha came running.

00:14:58 --> 00:15:00

And she began to what? Pick her up

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

from his back.

00:15:02 --> 00:15:05

And she got really, really infuriated and she

00:15:05 --> 00:15:06

started, what,

00:15:06 --> 00:15:07

insulting

00:15:09 --> 00:15:10

them. So the messenger

00:15:11 --> 00:15:13

went through in order to carry out

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

a

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

prayer.

00:15:17 --> 00:15:19

And the examples are many. The battle of

00:15:19 --> 00:15:21

Uhud, the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam

00:15:23 --> 00:15:24

had his helmet smashed,

00:15:25 --> 00:15:26

his face gashed,

00:15:27 --> 00:15:29

and his teeth crushed.

00:15:31 --> 00:15:32

And then he said

00:15:40 --> 00:15:41

How can a people

00:15:41 --> 00:15:43

who have gushed the face of their

00:15:44 --> 00:15:45

prophet

00:15:46 --> 00:15:46

ever be successful?

00:15:48 --> 00:15:49

How can they ever be successful?

00:15:50 --> 00:15:52

And Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala sent down a

00:15:52 --> 00:15:53

verse.

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

Muhammad

00:16:01 --> 00:16:03

was here being reprimanded by Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:16:03 --> 00:16:05

Ta'ala. This is something that you

00:16:06 --> 00:16:09

don't decide. Meaning, you cannot decide who becomes

00:16:09 --> 00:16:11

guided and who doesn't. It is Allah Subhanahu

00:16:11 --> 00:16:12

Wa Ta'ala chooses.

00:16:13 --> 00:16:14

So do not now

00:16:15 --> 00:16:17

make this claim

00:16:17 --> 00:16:19

that they will never ever be successful. Right?

00:16:23 --> 00:16:25

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala knew that which he

00:16:25 --> 00:16:26

was going through

00:16:26 --> 00:16:28

Even though he's the most honorable person to

00:16:28 --> 00:16:30

ever walk on the face of this earth,

00:16:30 --> 00:16:31

brothers and sisters.

00:16:31 --> 00:16:32

The most honorable.

00:16:34 --> 00:16:36

He will still have these human emotions

00:16:37 --> 00:16:39

that he will struggle with. And this is

00:16:39 --> 00:16:41

why Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:16:41 --> 00:16:42

sent on these verses.

00:16:47 --> 00:16:48

We know Mohammed.

00:16:49 --> 00:16:51

That which they keep saying about you is

00:16:51 --> 00:16:52

hurting you.

00:16:53 --> 00:16:54

It's affecting you.

00:16:55 --> 00:16:57

Allah azza wa jal will then what?

00:16:57 --> 00:17:00

Instruct him to do a number of things

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

in order to ease the

00:17:07 --> 00:17:07

pain.

00:17:09 --> 00:17:10

And be someone who prays.

00:17:11 --> 00:17:13

Be someone who is from amongst the people

00:17:13 --> 00:17:14

who pray.

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

That really will ease up your

00:17:18 --> 00:17:19

difficulties, brothers and sisters.

00:17:20 --> 00:17:22

Earlier, when I was giving a lecture in

00:17:22 --> 00:17:24

Aston University in Birmingham,

00:17:24 --> 00:17:25

speaking about Surat Yousef.

00:17:26 --> 00:17:27

Allah

00:17:27 --> 00:17:30

azza wa jayr said now in this chapter

00:17:30 --> 00:17:32

upon Messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:17:35 --> 00:17:37

We tell you about the story. Why?

00:17:37 --> 00:17:39

Because the messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam needed

00:17:41 --> 00:17:43

it. He needed that which is going to

00:17:43 --> 00:17:44

what ease his pain.

00:17:45 --> 00:17:46

This is why in the Quran, there are

00:17:46 --> 00:17:47

enough stories

00:17:48 --> 00:17:50

that we just need to refer back to

00:17:50 --> 00:17:52

that will help us through our trials and

00:17:52 --> 00:17:53

tribulations.

00:17:54 --> 00:17:56

Right? If you come to me now with

00:17:56 --> 00:17:57

your problems and you see I'm going through

00:17:57 --> 00:17:59

this and I'm going through that, I need,

00:17:59 --> 00:18:01

you know, some advice. I need a shoulder

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

to

00:18:03 --> 00:18:05

cry on and lean on. And then I

00:18:05 --> 00:18:06

say to you, Yahi, I

00:18:07 --> 00:18:09

went through everything that you're going through

00:18:09 --> 00:18:10

and even worse.

00:18:12 --> 00:18:14

And Alhamdulillah, I managed to overcome everything.

00:18:15 --> 00:18:17

How would that make you feel?

00:18:17 --> 00:18:20

You'll feel so much more better. I keep

00:18:20 --> 00:18:22

receiving phone calls and messages from brothers who

00:18:22 --> 00:18:24

applied for a medina but never got accepted,

00:18:25 --> 00:18:26

and they're heartbroken.

00:18:27 --> 00:18:29

They feel so down. Their morale has gone

00:18:29 --> 00:18:30

down.

00:18:30 --> 00:18:32

They feel like giving up. And then I

00:18:32 --> 00:18:34

say to them, the brother that you're messaging,

00:18:34 --> 00:18:35

Abutania,

00:18:35 --> 00:18:37

applied 6 years in a row and still

00:18:37 --> 00:18:40

got rejected every single time. It's like, oh,

00:18:40 --> 00:18:40

wow. SubhanAllah.

00:18:43 --> 00:18:44

That means I still have hope.

00:18:45 --> 00:18:46

Yes.

00:18:47 --> 00:18:48

So now, subhanAllah Allah

00:18:49 --> 00:18:50

is sending down these stories

00:18:51 --> 00:18:53

in order to inspire him because the mess

00:18:53 --> 00:18:54

salaam alayhi wasalam is going through a lot

00:18:55 --> 00:18:57

difficulty. He's going through a lot of hardship,

00:18:57 --> 00:18:57

brother, sisters.

00:18:58 --> 00:18:59

Right? Trials and tribulations.

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

It really really got to him.

00:19:03 --> 00:19:05

So he's going through all of his brothers

00:19:05 --> 00:19:06

and sisters

00:19:06 --> 00:19:07

just so

00:19:08 --> 00:19:11

we could receive an Islam on a plate.

00:19:14 --> 00:19:15

That's how we should look at it brothers

00:19:15 --> 00:19:16

and sisters.

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

Now when you know somebody who went through

00:19:22 --> 00:19:24

so much trouble to defend you

00:19:24 --> 00:19:25

in this dunya,

00:19:25 --> 00:19:27

how would you feel about him? You'll never

00:19:27 --> 00:19:28

forget that person.

00:19:29 --> 00:19:31

That guy stood for me. He was there

00:19:31 --> 00:19:33

for me when I was in most when

00:19:33 --> 00:19:35

I was in need the most, sahih.

00:19:37 --> 00:19:39

The messenger salallahu alayhi was went through all

00:19:39 --> 00:19:39

of this.

00:19:40 --> 00:19:41

Right? There wasn't 11,800,000,000

00:19:42 --> 00:19:43

Muslims at a time.

00:19:44 --> 00:19:46

They're being tortured. They're being attacked from different

00:19:47 --> 00:19:48

and directions.

00:19:48 --> 00:19:48

SubhanAllah.

00:19:50 --> 00:19:51

And even then he's still what?

00:19:52 --> 00:19:55

Continuing this call just so me and you

00:19:57 --> 00:19:59

can pick up an Islam on a plate.

00:20:01 --> 00:20:03

And then my brothers and my sisters,

00:20:06 --> 00:20:07

the freedom that we have,

00:20:09 --> 00:20:10

you have the right

00:20:11 --> 00:20:13

to express what you feel and what you

00:20:13 --> 00:20:14

say.

00:20:15 --> 00:20:17

Freedom of speech, guys. And just to let

00:20:17 --> 00:20:18

you guys know,

00:20:19 --> 00:20:20

guys out of David Cameron?

00:20:21 --> 00:20:22

Who's David Cameron?

00:20:24 --> 00:20:25

He's a previous prime minister

00:20:26 --> 00:20:29

back in 2015 when the messenger Sallallahu alaihi

00:20:29 --> 00:20:29

wasallam

00:20:31 --> 00:20:32

was humiliated

00:20:32 --> 00:20:34

by Charlie Hebdo.

00:20:34 --> 00:20:36

You guys know Charlie Hebdo? French cartoonist

00:20:37 --> 00:20:37

who depicted

00:20:39 --> 00:20:40

who depicted

00:20:40 --> 00:20:41

*

00:20:43 --> 00:20:43

images

00:20:44 --> 00:20:45

of the messenger Sallallahu

00:20:45 --> 00:20:46

Alaihi Wasallam.

00:20:49 --> 00:20:49

*

00:20:50 --> 00:20:53

images of the messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam they

00:20:53 --> 00:20:53

depicted.

00:20:56 --> 00:20:58

David Cameron and his likes

00:20:59 --> 00:21:01

and other world leaders, they all came out

00:21:02 --> 00:21:04

to stand in solidarity with who?

00:21:04 --> 00:21:05

With the oppressed?

00:21:06 --> 00:21:08

With Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:21:09 --> 00:21:12

who just had his honor ripped to shreds?

00:21:12 --> 00:21:13

Is that what happened brothers and sisters? That

00:21:14 --> 00:21:17

They came out to stand in solidarity with

00:21:17 --> 00:21:18

Charlie Hebdo.

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

Charlie Hebdo

00:21:23 --> 00:21:24

Defending

00:21:26 --> 00:21:29

your right to freedom of expression. And not

00:21:29 --> 00:21:29

just that,

00:21:30 --> 00:21:32

but also the right to offend.

00:21:35 --> 00:21:38

You cannot be able to express your,

00:21:38 --> 00:21:41

you know, your freedom of expression as they

00:21:41 --> 00:21:43

say. Right? Except by offending others. So they

00:21:43 --> 00:21:45

say, just as we stand up for freedom

00:21:45 --> 00:21:47

of expression and freedom of speech, we should

00:21:47 --> 00:21:49

also stand up for the right to offend.

00:21:50 --> 00:21:51

SubhanAllah.

00:21:59 --> 00:22:00

Why am I mentioning all of this to

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

my brothers and my sisters?

00:22:02 --> 00:22:03

Just went on a tangent here.

00:22:07 --> 00:22:09

We have the ability in this country

00:22:09 --> 00:22:12

to practice our religion so openly, Sahid.

00:22:13 --> 00:22:15

Is anyone holding a gun to your head?

00:22:16 --> 00:22:17

I had an Egyptian roommate.

00:22:18 --> 00:22:20

You know what you say to me? For

00:22:20 --> 00:22:21

6 years.

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

No. Sorry.

00:22:23 --> 00:22:25

Yes. 6 years we spent together.

00:22:27 --> 00:22:28

You know what he used to say to

00:22:28 --> 00:22:28

me guys?

00:22:31 --> 00:22:34

In Egypt, in a Muslim country, if they

00:22:34 --> 00:22:35

see you

00:22:35 --> 00:22:37

going to the Masjid too much,

00:22:38 --> 00:22:41

your name will be what relate back to

00:22:41 --> 00:22:41

the government.

00:22:44 --> 00:22:45

SubhanAllah.

00:22:47 --> 00:22:48

You'll be reported.

00:22:49 --> 00:22:51

And some Muslim countries that you go to,

00:22:51 --> 00:22:53

you're put under a lot of pressure.

00:22:56 --> 00:22:57

One of the blessing that we have over

00:22:57 --> 00:22:58

here, ma'am, is that we are able to

00:22:58 --> 00:23:00

practice our religion so freely.

00:23:02 --> 00:23:03

And yes, guys,

00:23:05 --> 00:23:06

we are able to teach our children

00:23:07 --> 00:23:08

the morals and the values

00:23:10 --> 00:23:12

that Al Islam stands for.

00:23:12 --> 00:23:13

However,

00:23:14 --> 00:23:15

we have been

00:23:16 --> 00:23:19

fuming and we have fallen victim to

00:23:20 --> 00:23:22

the antics of the enemy.

00:23:24 --> 00:23:25

If you say something, then you will be

00:23:25 --> 00:23:27

cancelled. You're terrified.

00:23:29 --> 00:23:30

Please go and assist, I have a lot

00:23:30 --> 00:23:31

of

00:23:31 --> 00:23:33

videos on my YouTube channel

00:23:34 --> 00:23:35

that are extremely colorful.

00:23:37 --> 00:23:39

Not a single one of them has been

00:23:39 --> 00:23:40

taken down.

00:23:41 --> 00:23:42

I'm in contact with solicitors

00:23:43 --> 00:23:45

and lawyers, this is why

00:23:46 --> 00:23:47

I put all of these

00:23:47 --> 00:23:49

disclaimers at the beginning,

00:23:51 --> 00:23:52

saying that we are not here

00:23:54 --> 00:23:55

to entice

00:23:55 --> 00:23:56

violence

00:23:56 --> 00:23:57

and harassment

00:23:58 --> 00:24:01

towards any minority group or anyone that walks

00:24:01 --> 00:24:02

on the face of this earth.

00:24:03 --> 00:24:05

I am a compassionate and peaceful imam.

00:24:07 --> 00:24:09

But then we speak about all of these

00:24:09 --> 00:24:10

topics and issues,

00:24:12 --> 00:24:14

You just have to do it smart.

00:24:15 --> 00:24:18

Right? And nobody can get you canceled, demonized.

00:24:18 --> 00:24:21

You have non Muslims brothers and sisters,

00:24:21 --> 00:24:22

non Muslims

00:24:24 --> 00:24:28

who openly came out and clearly and explicitly

00:24:28 --> 00:24:30

voted against same * marriages.

00:24:30 --> 00:24:31

And I'm just quoting

00:24:34 --> 00:24:36

I'm just quoting guys. There are

00:24:36 --> 00:24:37

363

00:24:39 --> 00:24:40

conservative MPs.

00:24:41 --> 00:24:41

A

00:24:44 --> 00:24:45

137

00:24:46 --> 00:24:46

of them,

00:24:46 --> 00:24:48

more than half that is.

00:24:49 --> 00:24:49

Now,

00:24:50 --> 00:24:53

more than half of conservative MPs,

00:24:53 --> 00:24:55

they voted against

00:24:56 --> 00:24:58

same * marriages. This was on the BBC

00:24:58 --> 00:24:59

guys.

00:25:01 --> 00:25:03

And then we feel like if we hold

00:25:03 --> 00:25:04

on to what the messian sallallahu alaihi wa

00:25:04 --> 00:25:06

sallam said, then

00:25:07 --> 00:25:08

we will be into trouble.

00:25:09 --> 00:25:11

Who said this my brothers and my sisters?

00:25:12 --> 00:25:14

From amongst us was an individual called

00:25:17 --> 00:25:19

Jacob Rizamok. You guys heard of him?

00:25:20 --> 00:25:22

It's probably heard in the lecture that I

00:25:22 --> 00:25:23

gave.

00:25:24 --> 00:25:25

Jacob Rizmalk

00:25:26 --> 00:25:29

is one of Boris Johnson's right hand men.

00:25:29 --> 00:25:31

Of course, not in office anyone.

00:25:32 --> 00:25:33

It's Liz Truss. Right?

00:25:35 --> 00:25:37

We still keep seeing changes in the cabinet.

00:25:38 --> 00:25:39

Today, you had

00:25:39 --> 00:25:40

a sacking.

00:25:43 --> 00:25:45

The chancellor has been fired.

00:25:46 --> 00:25:48

Course, somebody had to take the bullets, right?

00:25:49 --> 00:25:50

To get rid of the colored man.

00:25:56 --> 00:25:57

I actually have,

00:25:57 --> 00:25:58

my brothers and my sisters,

00:26:03 --> 00:26:05

You have non Muslims who are openly coming

00:26:05 --> 00:26:06

out and holding on to the religion

00:26:07 --> 00:26:09

and holding on to what they stand for.

00:26:09 --> 00:26:11

They invited over Jacob Rismond,

00:26:11 --> 00:26:13

onto the good morning show.

00:26:14 --> 00:26:16

At the time, he was being hosted by

00:26:16 --> 00:26:17

the Hadith.

00:26:18 --> 00:26:19

What What's the name? Piers

00:26:21 --> 00:26:22

Morgan.

00:26:23 --> 00:26:25

And they kept on asking him they kept

00:26:25 --> 00:26:27

on asking him, what is your position

00:26:28 --> 00:26:29

on same * marriages?

00:26:30 --> 00:26:32

Every single response was

00:26:32 --> 00:26:34

according to the teachings of the church

00:26:36 --> 00:26:37

in his posh accent.

00:26:38 --> 00:26:40

He's asked again, what is your position? He

00:26:40 --> 00:26:42

goes, it doesn't matter what my position is.

00:26:42 --> 00:26:43

According to the teachings You

00:26:47 --> 00:26:48

know

00:26:52 --> 00:26:53

You know, brothers and sisters, would you agree

00:26:53 --> 00:26:54

that

00:26:55 --> 00:26:56

liberalism,

00:26:57 --> 00:26:58

right,

00:26:59 --> 00:27:02

A watered down narrative of Islam has become

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

so widespread.

00:27:04 --> 00:27:07

Holding on to your religion has become abnormalized,

00:27:09 --> 00:27:09

vilified.

00:27:11 --> 00:27:12

And that is simply because

00:27:14 --> 00:27:14

we have

00:27:15 --> 00:27:16

not

00:27:17 --> 00:27:20

fulfilled our duties. What is our duties? Brothers

00:27:20 --> 00:27:20

and sisters,

00:27:22 --> 00:27:25

our duties is to learn Al Islam and

00:27:25 --> 00:27:26

then to go and convey it. No one

00:27:26 --> 00:27:28

is saying become the next khatib.

00:27:29 --> 00:27:31

Some people think when you say seek knowledge,

00:27:31 --> 00:27:32

it should only be for someone who's trying

00:27:32 --> 00:27:35

to become like the next scholar of the

00:27:35 --> 00:27:36

Ummah or the next Khatib.

00:27:37 --> 00:27:37

Laa.

00:27:39 --> 00:27:41

Well, life brothers and sisters, and I'm sure

00:27:41 --> 00:27:43

you guys heard of it, right? What happened

00:27:43 --> 00:27:44

in that Masjid

00:27:44 --> 00:27:45

in Central London?

00:27:46 --> 00:27:48

When you had them young children who came

00:27:48 --> 00:27:48

out saying,

00:27:50 --> 00:27:52

the queen deserves to be in Jannah.

00:27:54 --> 00:27:56

These are young children who go to Islamic

00:27:57 --> 00:28:00

schools and they were singing the national anthem

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

in the mosque.

00:28:03 --> 00:28:05

The video went viral. It was on BBC.

00:28:05 --> 00:28:06

It was on the Guardian. It was on

00:28:06 --> 00:28:08

on Sky and so on and so forth.

00:28:10 --> 00:28:11

And then the imam came out and said,

00:28:11 --> 00:28:13

oh, she was such a, you know, great

00:28:13 --> 00:28:14

role model

00:28:15 --> 00:28:17

and then even quoted the hadith antum Shuhada

00:28:17 --> 00:28:18

Ollahi Al Arab.

00:28:19 --> 00:28:21

You are the witnesses of Allah on the

00:28:21 --> 00:28:23

earth and she was such a great person.

00:28:25 --> 00:28:26

When you get a chance, I have a

00:28:26 --> 00:28:26

Khutba

00:28:27 --> 00:28:29

on my YouTube channel. It's called the king,

00:28:29 --> 00:28:32

the queen and my aqeedah is a Muslim.

00:28:33 --> 00:28:35

The Zionist are cutting up.

00:28:37 --> 00:28:39

And they're posting on the YouTube channels. They

00:28:39 --> 00:28:40

can take it as much as they want

00:28:40 --> 00:28:40

to benefit.

00:28:43 --> 00:28:44

It's been put on memory

00:28:46 --> 00:28:48

TV. Walaqim, my brothers and my sisters, why

00:28:48 --> 00:28:50

is this happening? I was having a discussion

00:28:50 --> 00:28:51

with

00:28:52 --> 00:28:54

a brother who graduated from Medina. I said

00:28:54 --> 00:28:55

to him, I know you can, you know,

00:28:55 --> 00:28:58

you're pretty upset and emotional and you're saying

00:28:58 --> 00:29:00

that the imam done this and the imam

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

done that. And yes, I understand.

00:29:02 --> 00:29:04

However, what is the root cause of this

00:29:04 --> 00:29:04

problem?

00:29:05 --> 00:29:06

What is the root cause?

00:29:06 --> 00:29:08

Would you agree? I said to him that

00:29:08 --> 00:29:09

we

00:29:09 --> 00:29:11

have stopped propagating

00:29:13 --> 00:29:14

what normative Islam stands for.

00:29:16 --> 00:29:18

If we as a generation are ignorant,

00:29:20 --> 00:29:21

we don't know anything about religion.

00:29:23 --> 00:29:25

Then what do you expect from our kids?

00:29:30 --> 00:29:32

What do we expect? This is a question

00:29:32 --> 00:29:33

we have to ask ourselves, you know, back

00:29:33 --> 00:29:34

in 2015,

00:29:36 --> 00:29:38

I've been mentioning this in, lectures, right?

00:29:39 --> 00:29:40

Back in 2015,

00:29:40 --> 00:29:42

I think it was actually one of the

00:29:42 --> 00:29:43

misogyny in commentary.

00:29:44 --> 00:29:45

No names.

00:29:48 --> 00:29:50

I remember one time, I was in the

00:29:50 --> 00:29:51

midst of giving a lecture and there was

00:29:51 --> 00:29:52

a lot of Odayal,

00:29:53 --> 00:29:55

A lot of elders at the back.

00:29:57 --> 00:29:59

I was warning the parents. This is 2,015.

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

Yeah. Uncles.

00:30:02 --> 00:30:03

Yeah. How they are?

00:30:05 --> 00:30:08

Do not be surprised tomorrow if your daughter

00:30:09 --> 00:30:11

comes to you and he says, dad,

00:30:12 --> 00:30:14

I want to have a relationship with Mark

00:30:17 --> 00:30:18

or I want to have a relationship with

00:30:18 --> 00:30:19

John.

00:30:20 --> 00:30:22

Some of you guys are laughing. This is

00:30:22 --> 00:30:22

serious here.

00:30:24 --> 00:30:25

Do not be surprised.

00:30:26 --> 00:30:28

Like, I remember the uncles, they looked at

00:30:28 --> 00:30:29

me like, Ling Khan.

00:30:30 --> 00:30:32

Says a little bit to a foot full

00:30:32 --> 00:30:32

of Jahi.

00:30:34 --> 00:30:35

He's a little bit too much.

00:30:36 --> 00:30:37

Maybe he's not the right person to give

00:30:37 --> 00:30:39

this type of lecture.

00:30:40 --> 00:30:42

I would also add to that, don't be

00:30:42 --> 00:30:44

surprised in a couple of years if you

00:30:44 --> 00:30:46

have your children waking up

00:30:47 --> 00:30:48

saying, dad, I am gay.

00:30:51 --> 00:30:52

Don't be surprised.

00:30:53 --> 00:30:55

Your son wakes up and he says, dad,

00:30:55 --> 00:30:57

I want to have a relationship with Bob.

00:31:02 --> 00:31:03

Well, I could see the faces of the

00:31:04 --> 00:31:04

all the elders

00:31:05 --> 00:31:06

becoming extremely

00:31:06 --> 00:31:07

extremely

00:31:08 --> 00:31:09

angry.

00:31:10 --> 00:31:11

And I think they reported me to the

00:31:11 --> 00:31:12

Eldar as well.

00:31:14 --> 00:31:15

It's like I'm not fit for the job.

00:31:17 --> 00:31:19

Brothers and sisters, every other week,

00:31:21 --> 00:31:22

I receive a message

00:31:24 --> 00:31:27

of maybe a parent saying, my child is

00:31:27 --> 00:31:28

YouTubing.

00:31:28 --> 00:31:30

How can I get rid of and I'm

00:31:30 --> 00:31:32

just quoting here? I'm not here to express

00:31:32 --> 00:31:33

my own views and opinions.

00:31:34 --> 00:31:35

YouTubing.

00:31:35 --> 00:31:37

How can I get rid of homosexual

00:31:38 --> 00:31:38

tendencies?

00:31:40 --> 00:31:41

Tendencies? Young child.

00:31:43 --> 00:31:44

Let me read out to you guys inshallah,

00:31:46 --> 00:31:47

a message that I sent to some of

00:31:47 --> 00:31:48

the brothers the other day.

00:32:01 --> 00:32:04

My brother was giving a lecture in one

00:32:04 --> 00:32:04

of the universities,

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

Southampton.

00:32:07 --> 00:32:08

I gave a program there as well.

00:32:10 --> 00:32:13

Later on, he receives a message saying the

00:32:13 --> 00:32:13

following,

00:32:14 --> 00:32:16

I am Muslim born and raised.

00:32:17 --> 00:32:20

I believe without a doubt in the word

00:32:20 --> 00:32:21

of Allah.

00:32:23 --> 00:32:24

However, I don't believe in Hadith.

00:32:25 --> 00:32:27

I don't believe in Hadith, but I believe

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

in Allah's

00:32:28 --> 00:32:29

book.

00:32:30 --> 00:32:32

Because he says that it's been tainted by

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

human subjectivity and what have you. Anyways, Puqulina

00:32:35 --> 00:32:36

says,

00:32:37 --> 00:32:39

not all, and then he puts in quotation

00:32:39 --> 00:32:40

marks,

00:32:41 --> 00:32:41

colorfuls

00:32:42 --> 00:32:43

are sinners

00:32:45 --> 00:32:46

or a sin.

00:32:46 --> 00:32:48

Not all colorfuls,

00:32:48 --> 00:32:50

but it what what appears to me in

00:32:50 --> 00:32:52

the email is that his brother was talking

00:32:52 --> 00:32:53

about this topic

00:32:54 --> 00:32:56

and he used the term colorfuls instead of

00:32:56 --> 00:32:57

LGBTQ.

00:32:59 --> 00:33:00

So not all of them are sinners and

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

not everything they do is a sin.

00:33:03 --> 00:33:04

Love is never wrong.

00:33:06 --> 00:33:07

Today, we hear love is love.

00:33:08 --> 00:33:09

Love is love.

00:33:10 --> 00:33:12

A man can love a man. A woman

00:33:12 --> 00:33:14

can love a woman. However, I look at

00:33:14 --> 00:33:15

the double standards.

00:33:15 --> 00:33:17

What if a brother wants to have a

00:33:17 --> 00:33:18

relationship with his sister

00:33:20 --> 00:33:22

or he wants to have relationship with his

00:33:22 --> 00:33:22

mother?

00:33:23 --> 00:33:25

Love is love. Right? You'll see them all

00:33:25 --> 00:33:26

know saying this is not right.

00:33:27 --> 00:33:29

So who determines what is right and what

00:33:29 --> 00:33:30

is wrong?

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

As time goes on, you will see

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

perspectives changing.

00:33:35 --> 00:33:36

Let me just quickly deal with this shubha,

00:33:37 --> 00:33:38

this doubt.

00:33:39 --> 00:33:41

There was once upon a time,

00:33:42 --> 00:33:42

homosexuality

00:33:42 --> 00:33:45

in the UK was considered a crime. Agreed?

00:33:49 --> 00:33:51

A capital punishment was for you to get

00:33:51 --> 00:33:52

your head chopped off.

00:33:55 --> 00:33:56

Once upon a time here,

00:33:57 --> 00:33:58

as time went on,

00:33:58 --> 00:34:00

the punishment began to change up until it

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

was perfectly made permissible

00:34:03 --> 00:34:04

under the law.

00:34:05 --> 00:34:05

Weed,

00:34:07 --> 00:34:08

when I was growing up, was considered a

00:34:08 --> 00:34:09

huge crime.

00:34:10 --> 00:34:12

However, as time went on

00:34:12 --> 00:34:14

in some States now in America,

00:34:15 --> 00:34:16

it is perfectly lawful.

00:34:17 --> 00:34:17

Tae'b.

00:34:18 --> 00:34:19

So who determines what is right and what

00:34:19 --> 00:34:21

is wrong? Even

00:34:21 --> 00:34:23

think they call it cannibalism. Right?

00:34:24 --> 00:34:24

Cannibalism.

00:34:25 --> 00:34:26

You guys know what it is? When one

00:34:26 --> 00:34:27

eats another.

00:34:28 --> 00:34:29

You guys heard of that?

00:34:29 --> 00:34:32

Up until today, brothers and sisters, it is

00:34:32 --> 00:34:32

considered

00:34:33 --> 00:34:35

perfectly fine in some places.

00:34:37 --> 00:34:38

So what is considered

00:34:38 --> 00:34:39

moral

00:34:40 --> 00:34:40

and immoral?

00:34:41 --> 00:34:43

What is considered morally acceptable?

00:34:44 --> 00:34:46

Who determines that for us? Even today, when

00:34:46 --> 00:34:47

you speak to atheists,

00:34:48 --> 00:34:52

they themselves cannot agree on what is considered

00:34:52 --> 00:34:53

morally acceptable.

00:34:56 --> 00:34:57

You're asking one thing,

00:34:58 --> 00:34:59

he give you an answer. You're gonna ask

00:34:59 --> 00:35:01

the other the same question. He'll tell you

00:35:01 --> 00:35:03

something different. Taif, so what is right and

00:35:03 --> 00:35:04

what is wrong?

00:35:06 --> 00:35:08

If you leave that to the creation,

00:35:08 --> 00:35:11

they will never be able to agree. Agreed?

00:35:11 --> 00:35:13

Without the shadow of a doubt.

00:35:13 --> 00:35:15

This is why we have no option except

00:35:15 --> 00:35:18

to believe in an external entity

00:35:19 --> 00:35:21

that governs us with a law and that

00:35:21 --> 00:35:22

is Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:35:24 --> 00:35:26

Otherwise, you will see

00:35:27 --> 00:35:27

society

00:35:28 --> 00:35:31

just going at against one another.

00:35:32 --> 00:35:34

Nothing will ever be what?

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

Consistent.

00:35:41 --> 00:35:42

Then the prophet says, love is never wrong

00:35:42 --> 00:35:44

even between 2 adult

00:35:46 --> 00:35:48

Muslims 2 adult Muslim brothers.

00:35:49 --> 00:35:50

Only your misguidances.

00:35:51 --> 00:35:52

So do better,

00:35:53 --> 00:35:54

be better yourselves.

00:35:54 --> 00:35:56

And then he says, Allahum Mubarak.

00:35:58 --> 00:36:00

And then he says, he quotes a verse

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

from the Quran, and when you have

00:36:02 --> 00:36:04

decided, when you have made a decision, I

00:36:04 --> 00:36:05

think he's referring to the verse, say the

00:36:05 --> 00:36:06

Azamta,

00:36:06 --> 00:36:07

fatawakkalal

00:36:07 --> 00:36:09

Allah, then rely upon Allah.

00:36:10 --> 00:36:12

Indeed, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala loves those who

00:36:12 --> 00:36:15

rely upon him. So he's basically now using

00:36:15 --> 00:36:17

verses from the Quran to justify it.

00:36:19 --> 00:36:21

Like I made a decision and then I

00:36:21 --> 00:36:22

put my trust in Allah, so this is

00:36:22 --> 00:36:23

me.

00:36:25 --> 00:36:27

But this is why I'm mentioning all of

00:36:27 --> 00:36:28

this. Right?

00:36:30 --> 00:36:31

The doubts are spreading

00:36:31 --> 00:36:32

today, guys. Today.

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

Today.

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

I think this imam is in Germany.

00:36:37 --> 00:36:37

Has a transgender

00:36:38 --> 00:36:39

standing in front of him

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

saying,

00:36:42 --> 00:36:44

what does the Quran say about homosexuality?

00:36:46 --> 00:36:48

This man, he has what? A big

00:36:49 --> 00:36:49

yellow

00:36:49 --> 00:36:52

whatever he's, you know, I think some hair,

00:36:52 --> 00:36:53

and he's wearing a dress.

00:36:55 --> 00:36:57

And he's asking this imam in Germany. I

00:36:57 --> 00:36:58

believe it was right

00:36:58 --> 00:36:59

from his accent.

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

What does the Quran say about homosexuality?

00:37:04 --> 00:37:05

By the way, guys, just in case channel

00:37:05 --> 00:37:08

4 is here looking to clip or to

00:37:08 --> 00:37:09

record me and whatever have you. I'm not

00:37:09 --> 00:37:11

here expressing my own views and opinions.

00:37:13 --> 00:37:14

I do not entice

00:37:14 --> 00:37:15

or should I say incite

00:37:16 --> 00:37:18

violence or hatred towards anyone.

00:37:19 --> 00:37:22

I'm just quoting and relaying back information

00:37:22 --> 00:37:23

that I took from the internet.

00:37:24 --> 00:37:25

So anyways,

00:37:29 --> 00:37:31

asking this imam, what does the Quran say

00:37:31 --> 00:37:33

about homosexuality? You know what he says?

00:37:34 --> 00:37:35

Quran is speaking about

00:37:36 --> 00:37:38

*. It's not speaking about same *

00:37:39 --> 00:37:42

marriages and relationships that are done consensually.

00:37:49 --> 00:37:50

I know we've just gone a bit on

00:37:50 --> 00:37:52

a different topic here. Even Mohammed said to

00:37:52 --> 00:37:53

me,

00:37:54 --> 00:37:56

when he was asking about the topic,

00:37:56 --> 00:37:58

what do you wanna speak about? I said,

00:37:58 --> 00:38:00

I don't know. Pick a topic.

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

Because no halalas, you spoke about the rainbows

00:38:02 --> 00:38:04

too many times. Speak about the prophet salallahu

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

alaihi wa sallam.

00:38:05 --> 00:38:06

But I think this is very, very important.

00:38:08 --> 00:38:09

Well, I wasn't even planning to discuss this,

00:38:09 --> 00:38:11

but we're gonna go back inshallah ta'ala. But

00:38:11 --> 00:38:12

I'm making a point here.

00:38:15 --> 00:38:17

In the Quran, it talks about the people

00:38:17 --> 00:38:18

of Lot. Right?

00:38:18 --> 00:38:20

I'm just quoting here. Talks about people of

00:38:20 --> 00:38:21

Lot

00:38:22 --> 00:38:24

and this Imam that I was saying that

00:38:24 --> 00:38:25

it's only speaking about *.

00:38:26 --> 00:38:27

Let me ask you guys a question.

00:38:28 --> 00:38:29

Right?

00:38:29 --> 00:38:31

Before I do that, what do you think?

00:38:32 --> 00:38:33

How would you respond to this?

00:38:34 --> 00:38:36

That the Quran is only speaking about *.

00:38:36 --> 00:38:37

You know, the people

00:38:37 --> 00:38:39

of Lut, they did stuff which is related

00:38:39 --> 00:38:41

to *. They didn't

00:38:41 --> 00:38:44

it wasn't referring to same * and consensual

00:38:44 --> 00:38:45

and whatever have you.

00:38:52 --> 00:38:53

He's a liar. I know he's a liar,

00:38:53 --> 00:38:55

but how do you respond to it? Ignore

00:38:55 --> 00:38:55

him.

00:38:56 --> 00:38:57

I know him.

00:38:59 --> 00:39:00

My brothers and my sisters,

00:39:02 --> 00:39:03

brothers and sisters,

00:39:04 --> 00:39:05

is there

00:39:05 --> 00:39:07

in any scenario

00:39:08 --> 00:39:09

in any scenario

00:39:10 --> 00:39:12

where a man can look at the private

00:39:12 --> 00:39:13

parts of another man?

00:39:18 --> 00:39:20

Except of course, halit of the Lord. But

00:39:20 --> 00:39:22

even then, if there is an issue on

00:39:22 --> 00:39:23

his back, you can't look at the front.

00:39:24 --> 00:39:26

The doctor has to only deal with

00:39:28 --> 00:39:30

where the problem is.

00:39:30 --> 00:39:32

It's not like you can look at every

00:39:32 --> 00:39:34

part of your private parts. No. My Jews

00:39:34 --> 00:39:36

is not it's harm even for the doctor.

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

So now look at this Shubha.

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

Look at this doubt

00:39:41 --> 00:39:43

that this person now is spewing. And on

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

TikTok,

00:39:44 --> 00:39:46

or like I saw the screenshot,

00:39:46 --> 00:39:48

it has something like,

00:39:50 --> 00:39:51

I think 80,000

00:39:51 --> 00:39:52

likes.

00:39:52 --> 00:39:55

That's just the likes. Imagine how many views

00:39:55 --> 00:39:56

it got. Probably gone into its millions

00:39:58 --> 00:39:59

And now children on TikTok,

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

this is what they are being fed, brothers

00:40:01 --> 00:40:02

and sisters.

00:40:07 --> 00:40:08

Are you brothers and sisters with me?

00:40:13 --> 00:40:14

So all of this is being said, brothers

00:40:14 --> 00:40:16

and sisters, everyone's holding on to what they

00:40:16 --> 00:40:18

stand for and what they believe and whatever

00:40:18 --> 00:40:21

have you. But then we are embarrassed

00:40:22 --> 00:40:24

to convey what the messian sallallahu alaihi wa

00:40:24 --> 00:40:25

sallam came with.

00:40:27 --> 00:40:29

And he went through all of that brothers

00:40:29 --> 00:40:29

and sisters.

00:40:30 --> 00:40:32

He went through all of them hardships and

00:40:32 --> 00:40:35

difficulties and trials and tribulation just for us

00:40:35 --> 00:40:37

for us now to come in 2022

00:40:38 --> 00:40:40

and we are not vocal about our religion.

00:40:41 --> 00:40:43

So I was telling the Medina graduate, we

00:40:43 --> 00:40:46

should blame ourselves. We have not been vocal

00:40:46 --> 00:40:46

enough.

00:40:48 --> 00:40:48

Right?

00:40:49 --> 00:40:52

And that's something every single person is to

00:40:52 --> 00:40:53

think about. Every person.

00:40:54 --> 00:40:55

When you go onto the Internet and our

00:40:55 --> 00:40:57

kids, they see this.

00:40:58 --> 00:41:00

Wallahi, that community,

00:41:01 --> 00:41:03

even though they are considered a minority,

00:41:03 --> 00:41:05

they look like they are the biggest and

00:41:05 --> 00:41:07

largest population on the face of this earth,

00:41:07 --> 00:41:10

Sahid, especially on social media. That's how it

00:41:10 --> 00:41:13

appears. But why though? You know why

00:41:13 --> 00:41:16

guys? Because every single member of theirs

00:41:16 --> 00:41:18

is playing an active role

00:41:19 --> 00:41:21

in spreading and conveying that which they sell

00:41:22 --> 00:41:24

for. All of them, they're always posting.

00:41:25 --> 00:41:26

This is how it should be. This is

00:41:26 --> 00:41:27

what I believe. This is me. Look at

00:41:27 --> 00:41:29

me. This, that, and what have you.

00:41:29 --> 00:41:30

But we Muslims

00:41:31 --> 00:41:32

are not saying anything.

00:41:33 --> 00:41:36

We have let our prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam

00:41:36 --> 00:41:38

down. He who told us to convey

00:41:43 --> 00:41:45

Abraham and sisters with me.

00:41:45 --> 00:41:47

So this is why every single individual here

00:41:47 --> 00:41:50

has a big role to play especially in

00:41:50 --> 00:41:52

these pressing and testing times.

00:41:52 --> 00:41:54

To learn his religion and then to go

00:41:54 --> 00:41:56

and teach it. Do not be surprised my

00:41:56 --> 00:41:58

brothers and my sisters that tomorrow

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

you see this becoming extremely, extremely rampant

00:42:04 --> 00:42:04

and it starts

00:42:05 --> 00:42:08

entering into our homes. Once upon a time,

00:42:09 --> 00:42:10

if the daughter ran away with a non

00:42:10 --> 00:42:12

Muslim, it was a big deal.

00:42:12 --> 00:42:14

We've become desensitized to it now.

00:42:16 --> 00:42:18

We've become desensitized to it.

00:42:19 --> 00:42:21

This is just round the corner, brothers and

00:42:21 --> 00:42:23

sisters. It's already happening. I'm receiving phone calls

00:42:23 --> 00:42:24

from parents

00:42:27 --> 00:42:28

every now and again.

00:42:28 --> 00:42:30

Please, can you come talk to my son?

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

And the final point, my brothers and my

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

sisters, pertaining

00:42:43 --> 00:42:44

to Kawahid

00:42:44 --> 00:42:45

principles

00:42:46 --> 00:42:48

in loving the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam.

00:42:55 --> 00:42:56

Is following him

00:42:58 --> 00:42:59

in our actions.

00:43:02 --> 00:43:04

This is a clear indication that you truly

00:43:04 --> 00:43:05

love the messian

00:43:05 --> 00:43:06

brothers and sisters,

00:43:07 --> 00:43:10

I can hold a banner all day long.

00:43:11 --> 00:43:13

I love the prophet

00:43:15 --> 00:43:17

But that's brothers and sisters lip service. You

00:43:17 --> 00:43:18

guys know what lip service is? Someone who

00:43:18 --> 00:43:20

just talks, talks, and doesn't actually follow the

00:43:20 --> 00:43:21

up with action.

00:43:25 --> 00:43:28

He becomes more beloved to you than your

00:43:28 --> 00:43:31

wealth, than your family, than your children and

00:43:31 --> 00:43:32

so on and so forth.

00:43:34 --> 00:43:36

And you do that by following his Sunnah

00:43:36 --> 00:43:38

in every way possible.

00:43:42 --> 00:43:44

You know how the companions really, really love

00:43:44 --> 00:43:45

the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam? Look what

00:43:45 --> 00:43:46

they were ready to do.

00:43:47 --> 00:43:49

I'll give you guys the example of

00:43:51 --> 00:43:53

Abu Talha who was shielding the prophet Sallallahu

00:43:53 --> 00:43:55

Alaihi Wasallam in the battle of Gohit.

00:43:58 --> 00:44:00

Was a strong experienced

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

archer

00:44:02 --> 00:44:04

who used to keep his

00:44:05 --> 00:44:06

who used to keep his arrow

00:44:07 --> 00:44:10

or should I say arrow bow strong and

00:44:10 --> 00:44:11

well stretched.

00:44:12 --> 00:44:14

On that day, he broke 2 or 3

00:44:14 --> 00:44:16

of his arrows, SubhanAllah, because of

00:44:18 --> 00:44:19

how well he was fighting.

00:44:20 --> 00:44:23

If any man passed by carrying a quiver

00:44:23 --> 00:44:25

full of arrows, the prophet salallahu alayhi will

00:44:25 --> 00:44:27

say, empty it in front of him. Let

00:44:27 --> 00:44:28

him now take it because he was a

00:44:28 --> 00:44:29

good

00:44:30 --> 00:44:30

archer.

00:44:33 --> 00:44:35

One time the messenger salallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:44:36 --> 00:44:37

started looking at the enemy

00:44:38 --> 00:44:40

because he was covering him. Right? Abu Taha.

00:44:40 --> 00:44:42

One time the messenger wanted to see what's

00:44:42 --> 00:44:42

going on.

00:44:45 --> 00:44:48

So Abu Talha noticed that he was raising

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

his head.

00:44:50 --> 00:44:52

He said, oh, Allah's prophet,

00:44:53 --> 00:44:55

let my parents be sacrificed for your sake.

00:44:56 --> 00:44:58

Please don't raise your head and make it

00:44:58 --> 00:44:59

visible

00:45:00 --> 00:45:02

because you might accidentally be hit

00:45:03 --> 00:45:04

by the enemy.

00:45:05 --> 00:45:06

Let my neck

00:45:07 --> 00:45:08

and chest

00:45:08 --> 00:45:10

be wounded instead of yours.

00:45:12 --> 00:45:13

They were ready to put their bodies on

00:45:13 --> 00:45:15

their lines on the line brothers and sisters.

00:45:16 --> 00:45:17

No one is even saying do that.

00:45:18 --> 00:45:20

All we are saying brothers and sisters,

00:45:21 --> 00:45:23

sisters, the sunnah of the messian sallallahu alaihi

00:45:23 --> 00:45:25

wa sallam with every step that we take

00:45:25 --> 00:45:27

and every move that we make, we love

00:45:27 --> 00:45:29

the messian sallallahu alaihi wa sallam right?

00:45:29 --> 00:45:32

There is a verse that Imam Ahmed Alhamdulillahi

00:45:32 --> 00:45:34

Alaihi referred to as

00:45:37 --> 00:45:38

The verse of examination.

00:45:40 --> 00:45:41

You know what this verse was? When Allah

00:45:41 --> 00:45:42

said,

00:45:42 --> 00:45:44

oh, satan or Muhammad,

00:45:45 --> 00:45:46

you really love Allah.

00:45:47 --> 00:45:48

This is the acid test here.

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

And

00:45:51 --> 00:45:52

what? Follow me.

00:45:52 --> 00:45:54

And Allah will love you.

00:45:54 --> 00:45:56

Hassan al Basri commented and he said,

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

Some people they claim

00:46:02 --> 00:46:05

that they love Allah and his messenger, so

00:46:05 --> 00:46:06

he tested them with his verse.

00:46:07 --> 00:46:09

He tested them with his verse.

00:46:09 --> 00:46:10

You know the companions,

00:46:11 --> 00:46:13

they would do the sunnah because it was

00:46:13 --> 00:46:14

a sunnah.

00:46:14 --> 00:46:14

Today

00:46:24 --> 00:46:25

They've done it always as soon as I'm

00:46:25 --> 00:46:26

going to do it.

00:46:27 --> 00:46:29

You know, it's also really sad my brothers

00:46:29 --> 00:46:30

and my sisters.

00:46:30 --> 00:46:32

The amount of a hadith of the prophet

00:46:32 --> 00:46:33

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:46:36 --> 00:46:38

The amount of a hadith that encourage us

00:46:38 --> 00:46:39

to wake up for Fajr.

00:46:40 --> 00:46:41

Right?

00:46:43 --> 00:46:46

Likewise, we have the responsibility to wake up

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

our children. Right?

00:46:48 --> 00:46:49

Sahid,

00:46:50 --> 00:46:51

I think it's worth mentioning because I just

00:46:51 --> 00:46:54

recently heard one of my shayyah make mention

00:46:54 --> 00:46:55

of this. Right?

00:46:56 --> 00:46:57

SubhanAllah.

00:46:57 --> 00:47:00

Fajr time kicks in, we say, lie leave

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

the children.

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

They are tired.

00:47:06 --> 00:47:07

But when it comes to the school, you

00:47:07 --> 00:47:09

you walk past the homes, you could see

00:47:09 --> 00:47:10

his screams. You could hear screams.

00:47:13 --> 00:47:14

Get up. Do this.

00:47:16 --> 00:47:18

We are so concerned about that.

00:47:19 --> 00:47:21

But when it comes to our deen and

00:47:21 --> 00:47:23

what the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam works so

00:47:23 --> 00:47:24

hard to establish,

00:47:25 --> 00:47:26

it just falls on deaf ears.

00:47:28 --> 00:47:29

I don't know over here brothers sisters, but

00:47:29 --> 00:47:31

in a less star,

00:47:32 --> 00:47:35

you have thousands of people coming out marching

00:47:36 --> 00:47:38

for the messian sallallahu alaihi wasallam. That happened

00:47:38 --> 00:47:42

in commentary? Did you guys have marches? On

00:47:42 --> 00:47:44

12th of Rabi'i Al Dawood.

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

I remember also our brother, Surab al Abbas,

00:47:51 --> 00:47:52

he sent a video in our group.

00:47:54 --> 00:47:56

One of the massajid that organized these marches

00:47:57 --> 00:47:58

over there in the North.

00:47:59 --> 00:48:02

Thousands of people coming up marching the streets

00:48:04 --> 00:48:05

And then he took a video of

00:48:06 --> 00:48:07

Fajr prayer.

00:48:09 --> 00:48:11

Allah, you don't see one row for Fajr

00:48:11 --> 00:48:11

prayer,

00:48:13 --> 00:48:15

One row for fajr prayer brothers and sisters.

00:48:16 --> 00:48:18

But then the marches, people are coming out

00:48:18 --> 00:48:20

showing their support for the

00:48:21 --> 00:48:23

in a way brothers, let's be honest with

00:48:23 --> 00:48:23

ourselves.

00:48:26 --> 00:48:28

Is this really what the messian sallallahu alaihi

00:48:28 --> 00:48:29

wasallam

00:48:30 --> 00:48:30

wanted?

00:48:31 --> 00:48:33

You may say to yourself that

00:48:34 --> 00:48:35

we are not doing anything wrong.

00:48:37 --> 00:48:39

Companions, body Allahu Anhu.

00:48:41 --> 00:48:44

Does anyone here love the messianess salallahu alayhi

00:48:44 --> 00:48:45

wa sallam more than companions? Allah, I don't

00:48:45 --> 00:48:46

think there is.

00:48:56 --> 00:48:58

Couldn't have done it.

00:48:59 --> 00:49:01

Couldn't have done all these marches and

00:49:03 --> 00:49:05

Why only one night or one day we

00:49:05 --> 00:49:07

are showing all of the support, but then

00:49:07 --> 00:49:08

the rest of the time

00:49:08 --> 00:49:09

was so heedless.

00:49:10 --> 00:49:11

Then you have the Tabi'ayn,

00:49:12 --> 00:49:14

Tabi'ain and then the 4 great imams, al

00:49:15 --> 00:49:16

Imam Abu Hanifa,

00:49:17 --> 00:49:21

Rahmatullah, Alayhi, Imam Shaffei, Imam Ahmed, Imam Malik.

00:49:21 --> 00:49:23

And then the 6 great imams of Hadith,

00:49:23 --> 00:49:26

none of them done it. None of them

00:49:26 --> 00:49:27

done it.

00:49:28 --> 00:49:30

And our celebrations are Ibada.

00:49:31 --> 00:49:33

Right? We have 2 aids,

00:49:33 --> 00:49:34

2 days of celebration.

00:49:35 --> 00:49:37

Right? And now we've taken a 3rd day

00:49:38 --> 00:49:38

as a celebration.

00:49:40 --> 00:49:41

Why don't we also celebrate the birthday of

00:49:41 --> 00:49:42

Jesus?

00:49:43 --> 00:49:44

Why not?

00:49:46 --> 00:49:48

Why don't we also celebrate the birthday of

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

Moses?

00:49:50 --> 00:49:52

We've opened already one door. Let's make it.

00:49:53 --> 00:49:55

And then Insha'Allah, we can also look up

00:49:55 --> 00:49:56

the

00:49:57 --> 00:50:00

the birthdays of all the other Ulul Azim

00:50:01 --> 00:50:02

and the rest of the prophets

00:50:02 --> 00:50:05

will probably end up having a celebration every

00:50:05 --> 00:50:06

month of the year.

00:50:07 --> 00:50:09

Can you see brothers and sisters, how our

00:50:09 --> 00:50:09

deen

00:50:10 --> 00:50:11

becomes distorted?

00:50:13 --> 00:50:15

Our deen becomes distorted. Why

00:50:15 --> 00:50:17

have many lost interest in Christianity?

00:50:18 --> 00:50:19

Can anybody tell me?

00:50:20 --> 00:50:21

Why?

00:50:23 --> 00:50:25

The amount of innovations. The amount of innovations.

00:50:25 --> 00:50:27

The amount of innovations. Well, that's very true.

00:50:28 --> 00:50:31

Imagine the scripture says one thing

00:50:32 --> 00:50:33

and then the pastor

00:50:34 --> 00:50:36

is coming out with something completely different. You

00:50:36 --> 00:50:38

have gay pastors brothers and sisters.

00:50:39 --> 00:50:41

The scripture says one thing and then the

00:50:41 --> 00:50:44

pastor is on something completely different.

00:50:46 --> 00:50:48

When the scripture is saying otherwise,

00:50:49 --> 00:50:51

imagine now may Allah protect us from this.

00:50:51 --> 00:50:53

The imam that we all look up to,

00:50:53 --> 00:50:55

tomorrow turns gay. Would anybody listen?

00:50:57 --> 00:50:59

Oh my, yeah. You have gay pass

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

this. Every now and again, they are what?

00:51:02 --> 00:51:04

Reforming the religion

00:51:05 --> 00:51:07

up until they ended up losing interest.

00:51:08 --> 00:51:10

Isn't this what is going to happen to

00:51:10 --> 00:51:11

our religion as well when we just tamper

00:51:11 --> 00:51:13

with it, when we just keep adding things

00:51:13 --> 00:51:15

and taking things away and what have you?

00:51:17 --> 00:51:20

Our religion will become an absolute and utter

00:51:20 --> 00:51:21

joke.

00:51:25 --> 00:51:26

So

00:51:26 --> 00:51:27

we have this verse

00:51:28 --> 00:51:30

that the Jews used to really

00:51:33 --> 00:51:35

even on the day of Arafah,

00:51:37 --> 00:51:38

a Jew came to Raman Al Khattab and

00:51:38 --> 00:51:39

he said,

00:51:42 --> 00:51:44

There is a verse in your Quran that

00:51:44 --> 00:51:44

you read.

00:51:46 --> 00:51:48

Had it come down on us Jews, we

00:51:48 --> 00:51:50

would have taken that day as an Eid.

00:51:52 --> 00:51:53

Omar said, what verse are you speaking about?

00:51:53 --> 00:51:54

He said,

00:51:55 --> 00:51:57

The day when I complete your religion.

00:51:58 --> 00:51:58

Brothers and

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

sisters,

00:52:01 --> 00:52:03

right? Doing the things that the least we

00:52:03 --> 00:52:04

could say is doubtful,

00:52:05 --> 00:52:06

it is contributing

00:52:07 --> 00:52:09

to what the Muslim Ummah is going through.

00:52:09 --> 00:52:11

Wallahi, it is contributing to it.

00:52:13 --> 00:52:15

When we sin, whether we realize it or

00:52:15 --> 00:52:18

not, it is weakening the Muslim Ummah.

00:52:19 --> 00:52:20

It is weakening it.

00:52:22 --> 00:52:22

Even

00:52:24 --> 00:52:25

over 700 years ago, he said,

00:52:33 --> 00:52:35

Tatar was only able to overpower

00:52:36 --> 00:52:37

the Muslims in the East.

00:52:39 --> 00:52:40

You know when?

00:52:40 --> 00:52:41

When falsafa,

00:52:42 --> 00:52:44

philosophy and also innovations

00:52:45 --> 00:52:46

became so rampant

00:52:46 --> 00:52:47

amongst people.

00:52:49 --> 00:52:51

When we sin, when we carry out innovations,

00:52:51 --> 00:52:52

when we tamper with this religion,

00:52:53 --> 00:52:56

you will see that Islam will become so

00:52:56 --> 00:52:57

so weak.

00:52:59 --> 00:52:59

Right?

00:53:00 --> 00:53:02

You know something that is extremely profound,

00:53:02 --> 00:53:04

that will shock everybody here.

00:53:05 --> 00:53:06

Let me tell you guys what Ibn Taymiyrahmatullahi

00:53:07 --> 00:53:08

said over 700 years ago.

00:53:09 --> 00:53:11

You'll think to yourself, is he living amongst

00:53:11 --> 00:53:13

us? Like, is he alive?

00:53:15 --> 00:53:16

Look what he says.

00:53:19 --> 00:53:19

Right?

00:53:24 --> 00:53:27

And when the Muslims begin to experience weakness

00:53:27 --> 00:53:30

and find the enemy having overpowered them, then

00:53:30 --> 00:53:31

the cause for this is their sins and

00:53:31 --> 00:53:32

transgression.

00:53:32 --> 00:53:33

Wait. Wait.

00:53:35 --> 00:53:36

Also, mutamey says,

00:53:50 --> 00:53:51

they established their Islam.

00:53:52 --> 00:53:54

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala gave them victory over

00:53:54 --> 00:53:56

the Kufar and the Mushriks

00:53:56 --> 00:53:58

from amongst to the Turks,

00:53:59 --> 00:54:00

the Indians,

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

and also the Chinese.

00:54:04 --> 00:54:05

Is not alive. He doesn't know what's happening

00:54:05 --> 00:54:06

in China now.

00:54:07 --> 00:54:08

He doesn't

00:54:09 --> 00:54:10

know. He's saying this

00:54:10 --> 00:54:12

over 700 years ago, by the way, he

00:54:12 --> 00:54:13

passed away 728.

00:54:15 --> 00:54:17

When they established Al Islam and they stood

00:54:17 --> 00:54:21

by it, Allah a'zulillah gave them victory over

00:54:21 --> 00:54:21

the Mushriks

00:54:22 --> 00:54:22

from China,

00:54:23 --> 00:54:23

India,

00:54:25 --> 00:54:26

and the Turks.

00:54:34 --> 00:54:36

However, when transgression,

00:54:36 --> 00:54:38

innovation became so widespread,

00:54:38 --> 00:54:39

Allah Azzawajal

00:54:40 --> 00:54:42

caused the Kuffar to overpower

00:54:45 --> 00:54:46

them. Brothers and sisters, we have to always

00:54:46 --> 00:54:48

ask ourselves and this is a very important

00:54:48 --> 00:54:48

principle.

00:54:49 --> 00:54:50

When someone now

00:54:51 --> 00:54:52

wants to do

00:54:53 --> 00:54:53

a practice

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

under

00:54:55 --> 00:54:57

the realm of Al Islam,

00:54:58 --> 00:55:00

he comes across a narration. He comes across

00:55:00 --> 00:55:01

a verse.

00:55:01 --> 00:55:03

He has to ask himself 2 questions.

00:55:07 --> 00:55:08

First of all, is this authentic?

00:55:09 --> 00:55:11

Is this authentic? That which I'm about to

00:55:11 --> 00:55:12

do, is it authentic?

00:55:14 --> 00:55:15

And then also, is it being used in

00:55:15 --> 00:55:16

this proper context?

00:55:17 --> 00:55:20

Is it being used in this proper context?

00:55:20 --> 00:55:21

These are 2 questions I have to ask

00:55:21 --> 00:55:22

myself.

00:55:22 --> 00:55:24

For example, now when you go into the

00:55:24 --> 00:55:25

toilet, what would you normally read?

00:55:34 --> 00:55:35

What if I said to you guys, every

00:55:35 --> 00:55:37

time I'm going to go into the toilet,

00:55:37 --> 00:55:38

I'm going to read Eid al Kursi?

00:55:41 --> 00:55:42

Why not?

00:55:43 --> 00:55:44

Is that an issue?

00:55:47 --> 00:55:49

You see how the religion now can become

00:55:49 --> 00:55:50

extremely tempered with?

00:55:50 --> 00:55:52

We have to ask ourselves the question, is

00:55:52 --> 00:55:54

it authentic? Is Ayatul Kursi authentic?

00:55:55 --> 00:55:56

Is it authentic? It's

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

in the

00:55:59 --> 00:56:00

Quran. Number 2, is it being used in

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

this proper context?

00:56:05 --> 00:56:07

And remember brothers and sisters, this second principle,

00:56:07 --> 00:56:09

and I will stop now.

00:56:16 --> 00:56:19

The base ruling is that you cannot do

00:56:19 --> 00:56:21

an act of worship until you find an

00:56:21 --> 00:56:21

evidence for it.

00:56:23 --> 00:56:24

It is haram

00:56:24 --> 00:56:27

to attribute anything to the religion

00:56:28 --> 00:56:29

unless you find an evidence.

00:56:31 --> 00:56:33

It's haram. I cannot do something until I

00:56:33 --> 00:56:34

have Lebanese.

00:56:35 --> 00:56:37

However, when it comes to cultural practices

00:56:37 --> 00:56:40

and I that, the asr is it is

00:56:40 --> 00:56:40

permissible

00:56:41 --> 00:56:43

until you find an evidence saying it's haram.

00:56:44 --> 00:56:45

Can I see the difference?

00:56:47 --> 00:56:48

I think in the Asian community,

00:56:48 --> 00:56:49

they have a lot of,

00:56:51 --> 00:56:51

Harishta.

00:56:52 --> 00:56:54

That's what they call it, Sahid.

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

When her sister has been given away in

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

Haras, they have, like, 7, 8 get togethers

00:56:59 --> 00:57:00

before the marriage. Sahid,

00:57:02 --> 00:57:04

can you help me out here? Is that

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

right?

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

Or am I

00:57:07 --> 00:57:07

misrepresenting

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

you guys?

00:57:09 --> 00:57:10

Shadi.com.

00:57:11 --> 00:57:11

Shadi.com.

00:57:12 --> 00:57:12

Shadi.com.

00:57:13 --> 00:57:15

But is there anything wrong with that?

00:57:17 --> 00:57:20

Yes. Why? It's like cattle on the market.

00:57:20 --> 00:57:23

I'm taking it you're showing your sister

00:57:24 --> 00:57:27

No. No. What I'm referring to is she's

00:57:27 --> 00:57:27

khalas now

00:57:28 --> 00:57:29

and handed over to the groom like he's

00:57:29 --> 00:57:31

going to marry her. And then the family,

00:57:32 --> 00:57:34

they just get together in different houses and

00:57:35 --> 00:57:37

they just want to get together. They have

00:57:37 --> 00:57:38

little parties in the house.

00:57:39 --> 00:57:42

Is that ham in within itself? It only

00:57:42 --> 00:57:44

becomes haram if they're doing things that haram,

00:57:45 --> 00:57:46

but the concept in within itself, let's just

00:57:46 --> 00:57:48

say it's haram

00:57:48 --> 00:57:50

free. They're just going from one house to

00:57:50 --> 00:57:52

another. Girls are getting together. Is anything wrong

00:57:52 --> 00:57:56

with that? No. There isn't. Even in the

00:57:56 --> 00:58:00

Somali culture, when you get invited over,

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

and you finish with the food,

00:58:03 --> 00:58:05

the soma aliyah is that they bring you

00:58:05 --> 00:58:05

a bowl,

00:58:06 --> 00:58:06

Bahuri

00:58:07 --> 00:58:08

that has water in

00:58:09 --> 00:58:10

it. You don't get up to wash your

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

hands.

00:58:13 --> 00:58:14

Is

00:58:15 --> 00:58:15

that right?

00:58:16 --> 00:58:17

These are Adat.

00:58:18 --> 00:58:20

There's nothing wrong with an Adah as long

00:58:20 --> 00:58:22

as it doesn't go against the Sharia.

00:58:23 --> 00:58:25

But the Quran and the Sunnah is very

00:58:25 --> 00:58:27

different. Our deen is very different.

00:58:27 --> 00:58:29

You cannot attribute anything to release unless you

00:58:29 --> 00:58:30

have

00:58:30 --> 00:58:31

an evidence.

00:58:44 --> 00:58:45

Us holding on to our religion,

00:58:46 --> 00:58:49

especially in these testing and pressing times, allah

00:58:49 --> 00:58:50

brothers and sisters.

00:58:51 --> 00:58:53

It's something that is so much needed.

00:58:54 --> 00:58:55

We are being

00:58:56 --> 00:58:56

vilified

00:58:56 --> 00:58:59

just for calling to what to hate, saying,

00:58:59 --> 00:58:59

and

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

what have you, and loving what Allah loved

00:59:03 --> 00:59:04

and to hate what Allah loved. You're being

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

looked as an extremist.

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

Look what the messenger sallallahu alaihi wasallam, we'll

00:59:08 --> 00:59:09

finish with this.

00:59:09 --> 00:59:10

He said,

00:59:14 --> 00:59:15

Islam started

00:59:15 --> 00:59:16

as something strange

00:59:16 --> 00:59:18

and it will come back as something strange.

00:59:18 --> 00:59:20

Then the messian of salallahu alayhi was asked

00:59:20 --> 00:59:22

by the companions, who are they? Those are

00:59:22 --> 00:59:24

strange. The prophet was asked by the companions,

00:59:25 --> 00:59:27

who are they? What are their qualities? You

00:59:27 --> 00:59:27

know what he said?

00:59:32 --> 00:59:34

They are the ones who will rectify

00:59:35 --> 00:59:36

that which my Ummah has corrupted.

00:59:38 --> 00:59:40

Can you not see that happening?

00:59:41 --> 00:59:41

Within,

00:59:42 --> 00:59:42

Munafiqun

00:59:42 --> 00:59:45

within are coming out and misrepresenting Islam,

00:59:46 --> 00:59:47

distorting it.

00:59:49 --> 00:59:51

I'm actually going to record a reputation

00:59:52 --> 00:59:54

on this doubt that has been spread.

00:59:54 --> 00:59:56

Him saying that in the Quran, there is

00:59:56 --> 00:59:57

nothing that speaks about

00:59:58 --> 01:00:01

consensual marriages with the same gender. It's only

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

speaking about *. Wallahi, that's a dangerous Shubhai

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

that is being spread on TikTok, which our

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

children has become

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

so glued to.

01:00:30 --> 01:00:31

And this is a dua that we should

01:00:31 --> 01:00:32

keep on our tongues,

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

which means, oh Allah protect me,

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

save me

01:00:37 --> 01:00:39

and my family from that which they do.

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

Honestly, on a Friday night, you see all

01:00:51 --> 01:00:52

these shut up.

01:00:53 --> 01:00:54

It's really really heartwarming.

01:00:55 --> 01:00:57

May Allah bless you all. Lord, every single

01:00:57 --> 01:00:59

one of you. So I thank the administration

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

again

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

for allowing me to

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

express

01:01:04 --> 01:01:06

which is mentioned in the book of Allah

01:01:06 --> 01:01:07

azza wa jib and the sunnah of the

01:01:07 --> 01:01:09

messianasallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

01:01:11 --> 01:01:13

Ask Allah if he doesn't reunite us in

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

his dunya,

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

to reunite us in the hereafter,

01:01:16 --> 01:01:18

in the highest part of agenda.

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

I don't think there's security. Right?

01:01:27 --> 01:01:29

I will stop there. I think they're tired.

01:01:29 --> 01:01:31

The average attention span of a millennial is

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

24 minutes. This is back

01:01:33 --> 01:01:34

in 2013.
