00:03:14 --> 00:03:20

We're Who are we today in the series that I am going to conclude

00:03:20 --> 00:03:21

by the end of this month.

00:03:22 --> 00:03:27

Activism our path forward and I feel like it's a good time to talk

00:03:27 --> 00:03:31

about this nine month into the ongoing massacre that we have been

00:03:31 --> 00:03:36

witnessing in the Holy Land that unfortunately, we have failed as

00:03:36 --> 00:03:40

Muslims across the globe. Despite our I want to say best efforts,

00:03:40 --> 00:03:45

but I don't know if I can, despite our efforts to bring to an end.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:51

And from every sequence of events that occurs on this planet in this

00:03:51 --> 00:03:55

world and from every experience and scenario that you witness in

00:03:55 --> 00:04:00

life, you must walk away with some less than some some lesson it is

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

absolutely unacceptable from an Islamic perspective at least. And

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

as far as Allah subhanaw taala is concerned for us to go through

00:04:07 --> 00:04:11

something to witness an atrocity of some sort, or, or go through a

00:04:11 --> 00:04:14

difficulty or be stuck with an obstacle or a misfortune of any

00:04:14 --> 00:04:18

kind and then not learn something from it. That's the point of these

00:04:18 --> 00:04:21

difficulties and obstacles is that you learn something for the

00:04:21 --> 00:04:24

future, that we don't allow them to occur again, or at least we

00:04:24 --> 00:04:29

take a step forward in preventing them from occurring or preventing

00:04:29 --> 00:04:33

their consequences from being as harsh as the as they were at the

00:04:33 --> 00:04:36

for the first time around. And when we when we take a moment and

00:04:36 --> 00:04:40

think about what we've witnessed and I have to say that it's been

00:04:40 --> 00:04:44

this ongoing nine month, nine month and ongoing. The fact that

00:04:44 --> 00:04:49

this actually happened in our lifetime is surprising to me. I

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

guess I'm quite naive. I didn't think something like this would

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

actually occur within my lifetime. I thought that we had achieved

00:04:56 --> 00:05:00

enough. This would be this degree of brutality. This

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

degree of barbarianism, this, this level of just complete

00:05:07 --> 00:05:10

negligence of our human rights for it to happen during our lifetime.

00:05:10 --> 00:05:13

To me, I just didn't think this was going to actually occur. I

00:05:13 --> 00:05:15

always knew that that would happen when we did to each other to

00:05:15 --> 00:05:18

there's a difference between what we're actually seeing on TV

00:05:18 --> 00:05:21

occurring in Philistine and then what happens in Muslim countries

00:05:21 --> 00:05:25

like Syria, for example, or Lebanon or, or Sudan or Bangladesh

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

or other, it's it, there's a difference between what happens in

00:05:28 --> 00:05:31

its domestic meaning we brought it on ourselves, it's a person who,

00:05:31 --> 00:05:35

who is maybe who's from the same background, similar names have

00:05:35 --> 00:05:39

similar similar faith, they just have different ideology, and we

00:05:39 --> 00:05:43

mistreat each other, and we fail to find unity within our own

00:05:43 --> 00:05:45

country. That's one problem. And we've had that for a long time.

00:05:45 --> 00:05:48

And I don't think we're gonna fix it anytime soon. It's different

00:05:48 --> 00:05:51

when when it's coming from the outside is different when you're

00:05:51 --> 00:05:55

being attacked from from an external source, which is why when

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

we talk about, you know, seeing there's, there's that piece to it,

00:05:57 --> 00:06:00

that's a little bit significant. So it was different. In addition,

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

that land is the land of Ibraheem Alehissalaam with an admissions

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

officer lives. So there is a religious importance to it, which

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

is why we just why I think it has that important significance that

00:06:10 --> 00:06:16

allows us to, it allowed us to really think and contemplate, and

00:06:16 --> 00:06:19

it showed us the number of Muslims that exist in the west today, I

00:06:19 --> 00:06:22

don't think we fully appreciated the number of Muslims that lived

00:06:22 --> 00:06:26

in the west until this happened, where we got to see the ongoing

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

encampments and the protests and the people, we got to see people's

00:06:29 --> 00:06:33

in the hundreds of 1000s coming out in every in every Western

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

city, all throughout Europe and within North America. It reminds

00:06:35 --> 00:06:38

us that we do have numbers, so we're not we're not gonna be

00:06:38 --> 00:06:41

lacking when it comes to numbers, and we're not lacking when it

00:06:41 --> 00:06:44

comes to youth we're not lacking really when it comes to wealth.

00:06:45 --> 00:06:49

What we're lacking is just a sense of of activism really, is my

00:06:49 --> 00:06:52

opinion. I know you can you can argue with me that what we're

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

lacking is leadership. And you probably have a point when you say

00:06:55 --> 00:06:58

it, that we lack leadership. I don't think leadership is possible

00:06:58 --> 00:07:03

if the people are not in the mindset of being activists,

00:07:03 --> 00:07:06

meaning and what does activism mean activism is when you devote

00:07:06 --> 00:07:10

and dedicate your life or yourself to a cause that is beyond you, you

00:07:10 --> 00:07:14

prioritize that cause above everything else, you prioritize it

00:07:14 --> 00:07:17

above everything else in your life, and everything else you do

00:07:17 --> 00:07:21

in your life is designed to serve that cause that you're working

00:07:21 --> 00:07:24

towards. And over the last couple of weeks, I pointed out a number

00:07:24 --> 00:07:29

of of aspects regarding the concept of activism and I shared

00:07:29 --> 00:07:32

with you the different things the Quran talked about when the Quran

00:07:32 --> 00:07:35

discussed the the story of the people of the cape ELCA because

00:07:35 --> 00:07:39

that's the best example that we have in the Quran. And last week,

00:07:39 --> 00:07:43

I talked to you about why why you do it, you do it for yourself, you

00:07:43 --> 00:07:46

do it to benefit yourself. Today I want to remind you okay, what is

00:07:46 --> 00:07:50

the objective though? What is the objective of this activism, the

00:07:50 --> 00:07:54

objective is not for the steam, that is not the objective, that is

00:07:54 --> 00:07:58

what's going to happen on your way to your objective, that is going

00:07:58 --> 00:08:02

to be one of the consequences, the liberty of that part of the world

00:08:02 --> 00:08:05

and the unity of the Muslim ummah and the betterment and the

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

wellness of the Muslim populations in their, in our, in the Middle

00:08:09 --> 00:08:12

East and the Muslim majority countries or in the West is a

00:08:12 --> 00:08:17

consequence of this activism, but it's not the objective. The actual

00:08:17 --> 00:08:21

objective is different and it has to be clear, the active the

00:08:21 --> 00:08:26

objective of activism for Muslims is he there is achieving guidance

00:08:26 --> 00:08:29

for themselves and for others. That is the ultimate goal. It

00:08:29 --> 00:08:34

always has been. Nothing else has ever taken that away. Never, that

00:08:34 --> 00:08:39

can never change. Our goal as Muslims Our ultimate goal is that

00:08:39 --> 00:08:43

people accept Islam they find guidance, they find the truth they

00:08:43 --> 00:08:48

find and they follow it. As you work towards that all the other

00:08:48 --> 00:08:53

things will fall in line. As you work towards finding guidance for

00:08:53 --> 00:08:56

yourself and granting it to others. You will liberate the

00:08:56 --> 00:09:00

places that require liberation, you will unite people who should

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

be standing in one line you will educate those who who are who are

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

seeking knowledge you will bring people back you will bring people

00:09:07 --> 00:09:11

together it will happen as a consequence of the activism but

00:09:11 --> 00:09:15

that's not the goal. The goal is this OMA having enough guidance to

00:09:15 --> 00:09:19

support itself and being able to offer that guidance to others. The

00:09:19 --> 00:09:24

moment we lose sight of that objective, it all it all crumbles.

00:09:25 --> 00:09:28

The moment as Muslims we lose sight of that objective, things

00:09:28 --> 00:09:33

don't work anymore. It's a fatal flaw within the whole system. When

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

you don't understand what the goal is. Listen to Allah subhanaw taala

00:09:36 --> 00:09:40

talk to us a boat's hull camp and what they said when they retreated

00:09:40 --> 00:09:45

into the cave and by the way, the cave is symbolic in the story. The

00:09:45 --> 00:09:49

cave is symbolic as a place where they took time to reflect and

00:09:49 --> 00:09:54

contemplate and come up with their plan. You need a cave, not a

00:09:54 --> 00:09:57

literal one, but you need a symbolic one. You need that space

00:09:57 --> 00:09:59

that mental space

00:10:00 --> 00:10:04

And that communal space where we retreat for a moment. And we

00:10:04 --> 00:10:08

assess our situation. And we come up with a plan with steps to take

00:10:08 --> 00:10:11

forward in order for us to achieve our objective. So they knew their

00:10:11 --> 00:10:15

objective, and they didn't have to sit down and figure that out. They

00:10:15 --> 00:10:17

were trying to figure out how do we achieve our objective? Is it

00:10:17 --> 00:10:20

achievable? And for a moment there, they thought this is not

00:10:20 --> 00:10:23

achievable. There's only three or five or seven of us we're all

00:10:23 --> 00:10:26

teenagers and there's it's impossible that we can change that

00:10:26 --> 00:10:30

we can it's too difficult. They knew what the objective was. They

00:10:30 --> 00:10:34

said it was a Pomona Tahoe do women do any earlier? law would I

00:10:34 --> 00:10:39

do when I lay him on him begging for money? Alpha Lambo manifesto

00:10:39 --> 00:10:41

and Allah He can hear about our people, our people are, they're

00:10:41 --> 00:10:45

lost, they're lost. They have found they're walking down a path

00:10:45 --> 00:10:48

that is crook That is corrupt, it's crooked, it's wrong, it's

00:10:48 --> 00:10:52

going to be their demise. They have no evidence to support it.

00:10:52 --> 00:10:56

It's incorrect. They don't have the guidance who is worse than the

00:10:56 --> 00:11:00

person who lies in the name of God. Who is worse than the person

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

if not I'd Allah He can cause Eva the night the lie in his name

00:11:05 --> 00:11:08

SubhanaHu wa Donna. So for them this was the problem is that there

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

are people who were misguided, they needed to find a way to guide

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

them. Because guidance is not just finding the Qibla within a masjid

00:11:15 --> 00:11:18

and praying guidance is much more than that guidance is figuring out

00:11:18 --> 00:11:23

the importance of being honest of being trustworthy of being someone

00:11:23 --> 00:11:27

who's a straight shooter of not being corrupt, of not being

00:11:27 --> 00:11:30

someone who accepts oppression from themselves or upon

00:11:30 --> 00:11:31

themselves.

00:11:32 --> 00:11:36

Someone who looks at everyone as equals and works towards their

00:11:36 --> 00:11:39

prosperity. This is this is what guidance offers you when you

00:11:39 --> 00:11:43

accept Islam. This is what you learn what you learn first, this

00:11:43 --> 00:11:45

is what you learn. First, it has to be the priority if you learn

00:11:45 --> 00:11:49

this time, and that's not what comes to you immediately through

00:11:49 --> 00:11:53

the through the method of your education. If somehow you are led

00:11:53 --> 00:11:55

to believe that there are other things that are more important

00:11:55 --> 00:11:58

than how I deal in this department and Islam that anything comes

00:11:58 --> 00:12:01

before them, then you will miss you are not You are Miss taught

00:12:01 --> 00:12:04

this religion, that you are told something that is that is untrue.

00:12:06 --> 00:12:08

They knew what was the most important thing, it was guidance.

00:12:08 --> 00:12:11

That was the objective. You know that because you asked for it 17

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

times a day, minimum, minimum. Many of you do more work than that

00:12:16 --> 00:12:20

you say, you know, sit off 17 times, anyone listening, anyone

00:12:20 --> 00:12:23

who's bugging you and listening to everything you're saying and

00:12:23 --> 00:12:26

translating it to saying, oh, this person must really want guidance.

00:12:26 --> 00:12:29

And they ask for it many, many times a day. If they're listening

00:12:29 --> 00:12:32

to your words, if you're being you know, if they're eavesdropping,

00:12:32 --> 00:12:35

and they most likely are, then they're wondering why why is this

00:12:35 --> 00:12:39

person so obsessed with guidance? Maybe ask for it all day long? At

00:12:39 --> 00:12:43

least 17 times I heard him ask, Oh God, grant me oh Lord, grant me

00:12:43 --> 00:12:47

the guidance of walking the straight path. We know that that's

00:12:47 --> 00:12:51

the objective, either through law he welfare through what I eat. And

00:12:51 --> 00:12:55

so I get the Hulu and FVD Nila here for when the victory of your

00:12:55 --> 00:12:59

Lord and the grand opening comes. And you see people entering into

00:12:59 --> 00:13:04

his Deen in groups. That's the victory. The victory is not for

00:13:04 --> 00:13:05

other populations to submit.

00:13:06 --> 00:13:09

It's not for them to submit to your willpower to your strength

00:13:09 --> 00:13:14

for you to be the upper hand upon them. No, no. The veg victory is

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

is the achievement of guidance. And when you achieve guidance, you

00:13:17 --> 00:13:21

become a person of when you become a person of all of the misfortunes

00:13:21 --> 00:13:24

and all of the injustices that exist in the world will start to

00:13:24 --> 00:13:28

fade fade away. They'll fade away on their own. We have to remind

00:13:28 --> 00:13:30

ourselves what the objective is.

00:13:31 --> 00:13:35

And when you read the book, and you continue with the story of al

00:13:35 --> 00:13:39

Qaeda, if you find it pointed out again, without a shadow of a doubt

00:13:39 --> 00:13:42

Allah does our own Caffee him they're telling you I mean, are

00:13:42 --> 00:13:46

you the hora? To whom the * or whom fee fed you What do you

00:13:46 --> 00:13:51

mean who the leaker Minaya, Tila Mejia Diller who, for who will

00:13:51 --> 00:13:55

move that woman yoke limb voluntad de de la Hoon Walia. Murshida the

00:13:55 --> 00:13:57

stuff that I say every single Friday at the beginning of the

00:13:57 --> 00:14:00

hotbar you know, the part that everyone ignores and just waits

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

for what's coming next is taken from Sula DeLuca, from the story

00:14:05 --> 00:14:09

of the people of the cave. Those who Allah guides are the ones who

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

truly have guidance and the ones that Allah subhanaw taala

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

misguides are the ones who will never find their way. They will

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

never find what emotion you want your family should they'll never

00:14:17 --> 00:14:20

say they'll never find the wish had. Right isn't what they asked

00:14:20 --> 00:14:22

about at the beginning. I shared this a few weeks ago.

00:14:23 --> 00:14:27

To this what they said to Europe, you know, Mila, don't go well.

00:14:27 --> 00:14:31

Hey, Lena, I mean and Marina, la Shuddha they wanted clarity. You

00:14:31 --> 00:14:33

want to have clarity to walk the path the way it needs to be

00:14:33 --> 00:14:36

walked. If Allah gives you guidance, you'll figure it out. If

00:14:36 --> 00:14:38

he doesn't grant you guidance and you'll never find that clarity,

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

you'll never find it.

00:14:41 --> 00:14:45

This piece is essential in understanding what our deen stands

00:14:45 --> 00:14:50

for. And understanding why it is that it's important for you to

00:14:50 --> 00:14:54

live a life where you prioritize something beyond your basic needs.

00:14:54 --> 00:14:58

To be an activist is when you prioritize a cause the cause is to

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

spread Allah subhanaw taala as guidance

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

To accept His guidance and as an act of gratitude for it, you

00:15:03 --> 00:15:06

spread it as far as you can you make sure this guidance goes in

00:15:06 --> 00:15:10

every direction that people have the opportunity and the ability to

00:15:10 --> 00:15:13

accept it and to to hear it appropriately. Because that is

00:15:13 --> 00:15:16

what's going to bring back righteousness and justice, and

00:15:16 --> 00:15:20

incorruptibility in two societies again,

00:15:22 --> 00:15:24

and you live for that. So your family, that's the point of having

00:15:24 --> 00:15:27

a family is to bring forward into this world, people who will

00:15:27 --> 00:15:31

continue to do that, to bring our own children and grant them that

00:15:31 --> 00:15:34

guidance. Make sure they find that guidance, and they continue to

00:15:34 --> 00:15:37

spread it. That's why you work so that you have enough money to take

00:15:37 --> 00:15:39

care of your family so they can grow up to be people of guidance,

00:15:39 --> 00:15:42

and that you have enough time outside of work to continue to

00:15:42 --> 00:15:46

push forward for guidance. Everything you do in your life has

00:15:46 --> 00:15:50

to be focused towards has to be has to be towards that goal. It's

00:15:50 --> 00:15:53

when it's not that we don't get anywhere you see we can afford as

00:15:53 --> 00:15:56

Muslims if you're if you understand what Islam is, you

00:15:56 --> 00:15:57

can't afford to live a life where

00:15:59 --> 00:16:02

it's just you get up you go to work, you come back, eat, drink,

00:16:02 --> 00:16:05

you sleep, you get up, you do it again. And you take some time off

00:16:05 --> 00:16:07

here and some time off there, you socialize, you have some friends,

00:16:08 --> 00:16:12

this is not it doesn't work like that. It doesn't. It just doesn't

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

see Islam that way into into except La ilaha illallah, Muhammad

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

Rasool Allah and to live like that there's something there is a huge

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

discrepancy. Like there's something there's something

00:16:23 --> 00:16:26

missing. There's something that is extremely important that's missing

00:16:26 --> 00:16:29

in this formula in this equation of how how we understood our own

00:16:29 --> 00:16:32

Deen, because he didn't live like that. I guess. He didn't know if

00:16:32 --> 00:16:34

he did, then that would be a different argument. But he did

00:16:34 --> 00:16:38

not. He lived differently. And all those who follow Him also lived

00:16:38 --> 00:16:41

differently. They continued, but we don't see people don't

00:16:41 --> 00:16:44

remember, no one's going to remember you for the daily

00:16:44 --> 00:16:47

activities that everyone has to do. Like, no one's going to

00:16:47 --> 00:16:50

remember me for going to my job every day and coming back and

00:16:50 --> 00:16:52

paying my bills and taking care of my children. No one remembers you

00:16:52 --> 00:16:56

for that. No one remembers who your family was. When I give you

00:16:56 --> 00:16:59

names of people like oh bucko. No, it's not. And I let you know, and

00:16:59 --> 00:17:01

ask you who are their wives telling me their number name of

00:17:01 --> 00:17:03

their children? How many did they have? Where did they live, you

00:17:03 --> 00:17:05

don't know. And you don't care. And I don't blame you. And you

00:17:06 --> 00:17:08

don't have to. Because these are the normal daily activities. We

00:17:08 --> 00:17:12

all have to be a part of what you remember them for was their

00:17:12 --> 00:17:15

activism. You remember them for the people that they you remember

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

for them for other things that they did, for the fact that they

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

dedicated their lives for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala, for

00:17:21 --> 00:17:24

spreading the deen and for teaching. Imagine if they didn't.

00:17:25 --> 00:17:27

If they didn't, this mess, it would have just

00:17:28 --> 00:17:31

wouldn't exist and people would slowly just disappear. You would

00:17:31 --> 00:17:34

just fade away. He went back in history and they didn't and they

00:17:34 --> 00:17:37

lived the way we're living, then none of this would be here today.

00:17:37 --> 00:17:40

No. There's nothing impressive about living that life. It's not

00:17:40 --> 00:17:42

as everyone does that. And you're supposed to do that. I'm not

00:17:42 --> 00:17:45

saying you stop doing it. You have to we all have to get up and go to

00:17:45 --> 00:17:48

work and make a living and take care of a family. But why are you

00:17:48 --> 00:17:52

why are you doing all of this? What's the point? Is it just

00:17:52 --> 00:17:56

because it's cultural? That's it is because your parents would be

00:17:56 --> 00:17:59

upset if you don't marry a good wife or a good man and having

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

children you're gonna feel less than Is that why you're doing it,

00:18:01 --> 00:18:03

that's why you're doing it but don't do it. Well, Allah, he

00:18:03 --> 00:18:06

listened to me don't do it, it's not worth it. It's not worth doing

00:18:06 --> 00:18:09

it for that will love you. It's not, you have to be doing it for a

00:18:09 --> 00:18:13

different reason. There has to be a different cause for it. Like

00:18:13 --> 00:18:16

there has to be in your mind, a goal that you're working towards,

00:18:16 --> 00:18:19

and you're making sure that all of your arrows are pointing towards

00:18:19 --> 00:18:22

that goal, the wealth that you make the family that you raise the

00:18:22 --> 00:18:25

knowledge that you learn the work that you do, everything is working

00:18:25 --> 00:18:29

towards this goal. And that goal, the objective has to be guidance

00:18:29 --> 00:18:34

has to be he died, and on the path towards that, on the path towards

00:18:34 --> 00:18:37

that we stand with it because he Daiya means that you recognize

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

where Huck is and where the ballclub is. So you stand for how

00:18:40 --> 00:18:43

can you stand against Boston and you refuse oppression and you

00:18:43 --> 00:18:47

fruit, you refuse transgression? That happens automatically if you

00:18:47 --> 00:18:49

make the cause just one thing.

00:18:50 --> 00:18:52

If we make the consequent of saying that, what about the rest

00:18:52 --> 00:18:56

of the Muslim world? What about the rest of the Muslim ummah? What

00:18:56 --> 00:18:57

about them?

00:18:59 --> 00:19:03

But they're living in democratic well run countries. Is that what

00:19:03 --> 00:19:06

you? We think that yeah, anyone here actually believe any of it.

00:19:07 --> 00:19:10

If you make the goal just one spot, then you you've lost the

00:19:10 --> 00:19:13

bigger picture, the bigger the picture is bigger zoom out yaki

00:19:13 --> 00:19:16

Zoom Out is bigger. The idea is much bigger. It's not even just

00:19:16 --> 00:19:20

the Muslim world. It's not just an Oh, it's beyond that is guidance

00:19:20 --> 00:19:24

to all of mankind is to the is to the sons and daughters of Adam and

00:19:24 --> 00:19:28

Eve. And within that guidance, we will unite this ummah and we will

00:19:28 --> 00:19:33

take back that which is rightfully ours and we will remove oppressors

00:19:33 --> 00:19:36

and we will only remove oppression that's what will happen on the way

00:19:36 --> 00:19:40

towards that goal. But the goal has to be that has to be clear. So

00:19:40 --> 00:19:44

he said I used to stand in the hadith of Kali endocardial Muslim

00:19:45 --> 00:19:48

and you had the Allahu bhikaji With Anwar hate and hate on let me

00:19:48 --> 00:19:50

know humbled enough for Allah subhanaw taala guide one person

00:19:50 --> 00:19:53

through you is better for you than everything in the world. We think

00:19:53 --> 00:19:56

I'm sorry, maybe to pop this bubble. That is just getting

00:19:56 --> 00:19:59

someone to say La ilaha illa. That's one aspect of guidance.

00:20:01 --> 00:20:04

That's just one aspect of guidance. Guidance is an ongoing

00:20:04 --> 00:20:07

thing. If guidance was a one act thing, why are you saying it every

00:20:07 --> 00:20:09

time you know salah, you've been doing it for 30 years, and we'll

00:20:09 --> 00:20:14

probably do it for a day you die. If guidance was a one time deal,

00:20:14 --> 00:20:17

then we wouldn't need to continuously ask for it. What he's

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

saying to his slaughter, Sam is May Allah if Allah uses you to

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

guide people, because you're living correctly, because you're

00:20:23 --> 00:20:26

living the way you're supposed to live and, and people are watching

00:20:26 --> 00:20:30

and then those around you are identifying, yes, this person is

00:20:30 --> 00:20:33

guided, I want to be more like that. I want to think like that

00:20:33 --> 00:20:37

live like that be like that. And then they start walking, walking

00:20:37 --> 00:20:41

behind you down that path. That's how you guide people. What's the

00:20:41 --> 00:20:44

point of bringing someone in to say La ilaha illAllah. And then

00:20:44 --> 00:20:48

they get no support. They get no support. They're, they're cut off

00:20:48 --> 00:20:51

by their own family, they lose their jobs, they they don't speak

00:20:51 --> 00:20:53

the language and then they go back. What's the point? What's the

00:20:53 --> 00:20:56

point? Well, we get for a moment here to be happy that someone said

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

right and then what Howard, how are we going to make sure that

00:20:58 --> 00:21:01

person continues guidance correct me how are we going to make sure

00:21:01 --> 00:21:04

that our own children continue in a path of guidance? How do we make

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

sure that we do

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

it has to be the objective

00:21:09 --> 00:21:13

advocacy and activism these are methods that are means towards

00:21:13 --> 00:21:19

achieving the objective of what I eat in Idaho Luna fidi in here for

00:24:59 --> 00:25:00

when

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

I look at the Prophet alayhi salatu salam Leif.

00:25:03 --> 00:25:06

You see this dedication towards

00:25:08 --> 00:25:13

wanting guidance for others on a level that is really difficult to,

00:25:13 --> 00:25:17

to emulate. I have to admit when I when I when I cannot for the life

00:25:17 --> 00:25:21

of me follow in the footsteps I know they're correct and I know we

00:25:21 --> 00:25:24

should but it's just it's too hard. I used to go to a cinema had

00:25:24 --> 00:25:29

this, this. This is, to me this is what activism is. It's when it's

00:25:29 --> 00:25:34

just absolutely nothing that will cloud your vision or your view of

00:25:34 --> 00:25:36

what your objective is, and you're going to work towards it

00:25:36 --> 00:25:40

regardless of anything. I use AutoSum his goal was guidance. And

00:25:40 --> 00:25:45

guidance only occurs when HAC is respected when Balton is refuted,

00:25:45 --> 00:25:48

when when justice is is established.

00:25:50 --> 00:25:52

And I want to share with you the story in the collection a member

00:25:52 --> 00:25:56

Hudy where the probability salatu salam was approached by a man

00:25:56 --> 00:26:03

named Abdullah Abdullah is Abdullah Abdullah evening obey

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

unicellular

00:26:04 --> 00:26:09

Abdullah Hypnobabies saloon is a man who was the head of the

00:26:09 --> 00:26:12

hypocrites and then when I 15 in Medina for the longest time, this

00:26:12 --> 00:26:17

man had harmed the roof out of his throat to sit on every single at

00:26:17 --> 00:26:21

every corner and every way he could. He tried everything he

00:26:21 --> 00:26:25

tried to get him killed. He he tried he called his wife, Jani, a

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

word that I'm not going to use on a number. He called his family

00:26:27 --> 00:26:31

something he withheld his account. He told people to do it as well.

00:26:31 --> 00:26:35

He pulled a third of an army on the day of battle, hoping that the

00:26:35 --> 00:26:38

Prophet and the people within will get killed. He tried everything he

00:26:38 --> 00:26:42

could to get to end Islam, he but he failed. He didn't work out time

00:26:42 --> 00:26:46

and time again over 15 attempts this man made and he would

00:26:46 --> 00:26:50

publicly speak about the Prophet alayhi salatu salam in ways that

00:26:50 --> 00:26:53

are if I shared with you, I would only make I maybe I should. Maybe

00:26:53 --> 00:26:55

I should fill your heart with a little bit of anger towards this

00:26:55 --> 00:26:58

man. The Prophet alayhi salatu salam is visiting an elderly lady

00:26:58 --> 00:27:00

who was dying within a neighborhood so he's coming out of

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

his assault on his on his mule. So he comes by and he wants, the mule

00:27:05 --> 00:27:08

is walking and he crosses the house in front of the house in

00:27:08 --> 00:27:12

front of the door of our beloved Obon citizen. So he says this man

00:27:12 --> 00:27:14

called Mr. Jackman basic.

00:27:15 --> 00:27:19

Does he want to be him Eric? Hello Bucky Duffy basic well how the

00:27:19 --> 00:27:21

* what is this? Why are you leaving your home coming to our

00:27:21 --> 00:27:24

neighborhood with your with your disgusting donkey? It smells

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

you're making display smell like this when he says the prof on his

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

thought was that he would ignore it so wouldn't wouldn't want me to

00:27:29 --> 00:27:33

go and visit the lady stand there with her. No one does this. No one

00:27:33 --> 00:27:36

goes in the poor people when they pass away. No one cares. It

00:27:36 --> 00:27:38

doesn't make headlines and no one's willing to go and visit them

00:27:38 --> 00:27:42

he would do this I used to love to go and stand at the footstep of a

00:27:42 --> 00:27:45

bed of a lady who's passing away. So Allahu alayhi salatu salam,

00:27:45 --> 00:27:48

this man would continue to say these things he was under on the

00:27:48 --> 00:27:50

way back from another battle he was saying they origin and I

00:27:50 --> 00:27:55

assuming that when we get back the superior will remove the inferior

00:27:55 --> 00:27:58

from the city he's referring to himself as the superior into the

00:27:58 --> 00:27:59

profile to Islam as

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

he will see in another battle. You see the example that we have with

00:28:05 --> 00:28:08

the Muslim with the Muhammad and the people with him is the example

00:28:08 --> 00:28:13

call Mama Faloona. Well, Martha Lu ha Hola. Como se will call can

00:28:13 --> 00:28:17

Metallica at some in Cal Baca cook. So the example that we have

00:28:17 --> 00:28:21

with Mohammed is and the Muslims is the example of feed your dog

00:28:21 --> 00:28:22

Allah and he'll eat you.

00:28:23 --> 00:28:27

Salah hottie CIBJO Sal and this is what he is what he did. Now his

00:28:27 --> 00:28:30

son Abdullah is a good man. He came to the Prophet alayhi salatu

00:28:30 --> 00:28:34

salam, he said Ya rasool Allah be told that my dad is dying

00:28:35 --> 00:28:39

for our clean economy suck. Or you give me your job you're gonna

00:28:39 --> 00:28:41

Libya, okay, Finn houfy to put him in

00:28:44 --> 00:28:45

a hot bar sitting there. I need

00:28:46 --> 00:28:50

a father Nam syllabi something so he took off his cameo son, he gave

00:28:50 --> 00:28:54

it to him. Didn't he also legally give me let me know and I'll come

00:28:54 --> 00:28:59

in I'll do a solid Janessa upon him. Of course who am are you to?

00:28:59 --> 00:29:00

boohooman thought if you thought we'll be here I'm always walking

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

with him pulling him from his job saying yeah rasool Allah, Allah,

00:29:04 --> 00:29:08

al Qaeda. Ya rasool Allah, Allah me if Al Qaeda. Yeah rasool Allah

00:29:08 --> 00:29:10

I tell you the Cuyamaca that he's pulling the Prophet back saying

00:29:10 --> 00:29:12

Allah sort of like what are you doing? You remember when he said

00:29:12 --> 00:29:15

this? Remember when he did this, remember when he behaved that way?

00:29:15 --> 00:29:18

Remember when he did that to you? You have to do your own model in

00:29:18 --> 00:29:22

Allaha Island, eBay, Nokia, my team is totally futile whom I will

00:29:22 --> 00:29:25

attest to whom, interstellar Fetullah whom Sabina mandala

00:29:25 --> 00:29:28

Giovanna yellowfin, Allah Who to whom you can ask for forgiveness

00:29:28 --> 00:29:31

or you don't ask for forgiveness for them. You can do it so many

00:29:31 --> 00:29:33

times they won't be forgiven. The Prophet what he took from that is

00:29:33 --> 00:29:36

that he gave me a choice subhanho wa taala. They gave me a choice

00:29:36 --> 00:29:39

either I do it, I don't do it. I want to do it. You're qualified.

00:29:39 --> 00:29:42

Sahaba Rasulullah he said Allah Allah who was salam, ala finance

00:29:42 --> 00:29:46

Allah, Abdullah, he goes into the into the grave of this man.

00:29:48 --> 00:29:51

And then he puts him in his own job, and he prays it to NASA for

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

him.

00:29:54 --> 00:29:58

And right after that, the Quran would be revealed and they would

00:29:58 --> 00:30:00

be willing to suddenly Allah had the minimum

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

Mata Budda what I took on my laptop if you don't ever never

00:30:03 --> 00:30:06

pray upon them went up again and never go to their grave again. No,

00:30:06 --> 00:30:10

God wasn't busy, he could have come 30 minutes before, but he

00:30:10 --> 00:30:13

didn't. Because Allah subhanaw taala wanted to see her watch,

00:30:13 --> 00:30:18

see, see who rasool Allah so I said to him is see him, see him so

00:30:18 --> 00:30:23

you understand what his mindset is like so you can learn watch him. I

00:30:23 --> 00:30:27

couldn't do it. There are people who I will never patronize a farm.

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

There are people if they die, I will either by shutting it off.

00:30:31 --> 00:30:35

And I will feed people meat for a week if they die, I will be in I

00:30:35 --> 00:30:38

will be enjoys for weeks it will make my year who will make my

00:30:38 --> 00:30:42

decade if they die, just die before me just go to just go

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

before I do.

00:30:44 --> 00:30:47

I don't have what he has here salatu salam, that thing in his

00:30:47 --> 00:30:52

heart, I just I can't get it. This man was his foreign enemy. This

00:30:52 --> 00:30:54

was the person who harmed him, the most out of us stood out to us and

00:30:54 --> 00:30:57

it was not related to him. You see the people of course, you could

00:30:57 --> 00:31:00

say well, you know, Bucha head was was related to him one way or the

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

other. It has a lot to say. And there was some relation maybe

00:31:02 --> 00:31:06

third fourth, fifth cousin, but still from Quraysh. Abu Lahab,

00:31:06 --> 00:31:10

same thing his uncle, it's hard to make. But this man was not related

00:31:10 --> 00:31:13

to him in any form or manner. And there was never a history of

00:31:13 --> 00:31:16

goodness between them. He was his enemy. From the day he entered

00:31:16 --> 00:31:19

Medina who saw to us and this man showed him nothing but hatred. He

00:31:19 --> 00:31:23

showed him nothing but betrayal. And when he died, he went and

00:31:23 --> 00:31:28

Salalah he's still alive. So he's right. What heart is this? It's I

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

don't I don't look at it. sentimentally. I don't. I look at

00:31:31 --> 00:31:36

it from a standpoint of activism. This is someone who sees the

00:31:36 --> 00:31:40

objective, the objective is guidance, and his people going to

00:31:40 --> 00:31:44

Jana. And if it means he has to swallow his own ego, if it means

00:31:44 --> 00:31:49

he has to put away his personal feelings and get over himself and

00:31:49 --> 00:31:52

he will do it if that's the price that he'll pay it. If the price

00:31:52 --> 00:31:55

for someone to make it the agenda is for him to swallow his own ego

00:31:55 --> 00:31:59

and forget about the harm and the pain and the trauma and the

00:31:59 --> 00:32:01

mysteries then he will do it on a hill Salatu was Salam.

00:32:04 --> 00:32:06

That's dedication. You want dedication? That's dedication for

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

you?

00:32:07 --> 00:32:11

Is his his motto one more salt agenda if I can get one more soul

00:32:11 --> 00:32:15

there. So Allah audio saga set limits mine. And that's what I

00:32:15 --> 00:32:20

think that's what I think this is about. I think it's about that. I

00:32:20 --> 00:32:23

don't think I know, I'm sharing that with you. The the objective,

00:32:23 --> 00:32:27

the goal is guidance. That's what we're supposed to. We're supposed

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

to dedicate our lives for it to obtain it for ourselves and trying

00:32:31 --> 00:32:34

to get trying to get it to everyone else guidance is not just

00:32:34 --> 00:32:38

knowing how to suddenly guidance is recognizing for what it is, is

00:32:38 --> 00:32:42

recognizing Botha for what it is, is recognizing the causes that you

00:32:42 --> 00:32:45

should defend and stand for that guidance. What's the point if

00:32:45 --> 00:32:48

you're if you pray, if the hammer laid, but you accept oppression?

00:32:48 --> 00:32:50

What guidance Do you have you don't have it, you can do

00:32:50 --> 00:32:54

something there is something missing fundamentally. So we ask

00:32:54 --> 00:32:57

Allah to help guide us in every way. Make sure we're guiding every

00:32:57 --> 00:33:01

front, we're guided in the way that we deal with you were guided

00:33:01 --> 00:33:04

in the way that we understand our Prophet Alayhi Salatu was Salam.

00:33:04 --> 00:33:06

We're guiding the way that we deal with our community, we're guided

00:33:06 --> 00:33:11

in the way that we see the world and we see ourselves within it

00:33:11 --> 00:33:13

that we're guided in the way that we deal with our families and our

00:33:13 --> 00:33:17

neighbors and our spouses and our children and our parents and our

00:33:17 --> 00:33:20

Muslim Ummah and the human race, we need to be guided

00:33:21 --> 00:33:25

from an endless hobo with the story of who mama your mama was

00:33:25 --> 00:33:30

one of the kings of Robbia so not to bore you with this, but the

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

COVID-19 which are the descendants of the Knights which are the

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

descendants of Ismail Eid, Allah He said I'm so and that's half of

00:33:37 --> 00:33:42

the Arab. There are two large tribes there's a un which is where

00:33:42 --> 00:33:44

the Prophet alayhi salaatu wa Salam is come from comes from Musa

00:33:44 --> 00:33:48

Midori, and there's Libya, right. And for the longest time, they

00:33:48 --> 00:33:50

hate each other to each other's guts and they fight and they kill

00:33:50 --> 00:33:52

each other for a long time. And they never they didn't get along

00:33:52 --> 00:33:54

for a very, very long time. And they probably still don't and the

00:33:54 --> 00:33:57

provider you sought to say I'm putting in a lot of effort to try

00:33:57 --> 00:34:00

and perform Dawa for Robbie I specifically because they're they

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

know Hudgens and they still have remnants of the guidance of his

00:34:03 --> 00:34:06

man aid. And Ibrahim Ali, he said, I'm within them, they just they're

00:34:06 --> 00:34:10

lost tomorrow, and that was one of the kings of Robbia and he put his

00:34:10 --> 00:34:13

money towards trying to kill the Prophet alayhi salatu salam in

00:34:13 --> 00:34:15

multiple occasions, the Prophet alayhi salam, they tried to

00:34:15 --> 00:34:18

assassinate him nine times in his life. So Mama was responsible for

00:34:18 --> 00:34:22

two of them. He tried, and then he was caught by the Muslims and they

00:34:22 --> 00:34:24

didn't know who he was when they caught him. The two Muslims caught

00:34:24 --> 00:34:27

this person who was and they brought him to Medina, the Prophet

00:34:27 --> 00:34:30

alayhi salam saw him he knew who he was. So he didn't say he said

00:34:30 --> 00:34:33

to tie him to one of the salary of the masjid so one of these this

00:34:33 --> 00:34:37

pillar here and the mission they tied him to it provided him with

00:34:37 --> 00:34:40

food and drink and bathroom rest and all that stuff. And the point

00:34:40 --> 00:34:42

of it is I'm coming to everyday out here so it was me ask him.

00:34:43 --> 00:34:47

Okay, fine. How are you today? So if my mother would say, I need to

00:34:47 --> 00:34:50

talk to them went off without one shocker.

00:34:51 --> 00:34:54

And if you kill me on eBay, eBay went up. Malefor like I'm very in

00:34:54 --> 00:34:58

demand. If you want money, I'll give you money. If if you kill me,

00:34:58 --> 00:34:59

then I deserve it. I've killed a man

00:35:00 --> 00:35:02

A lot of Muslims so I can't really. And if you'll forgive me,

00:35:02 --> 00:35:04

then you'll forgive someone who'll be leading later grateful. So he

00:35:04 --> 00:35:07

walks away on his love to us. And after he doesn't even respond,

00:35:07 --> 00:35:10

this guy stays tight in the masjid for the full day, the next day

00:35:10 --> 00:35:12

comes, same thing. Awesome. Same question. How are you today says

00:35:12 --> 00:35:15

the same thing. If you kill me, I can't really complain. If you want

00:35:15 --> 00:35:17

money I have. I'm very rich. I'll give you as much as you want. And

00:35:17 --> 00:35:19

if you'll forgive me and you pardon me, then I'll be very

00:35:19 --> 00:35:22

grateful. He walks away. He's awesome. Doesn't even respond to

00:35:22 --> 00:35:25

him. The third day, he asked him the same question. He answered the

00:35:25 --> 00:35:29

same way. So he told us a harbor for cool, let him go. Get out.

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

Get out. I'm not killing you. I'm not asking you for money. I'm not

00:35:34 --> 00:35:38

pardoning, you just get out. So the man walks away. He goes to the

00:35:38 --> 00:35:42

nearest orchard within Medina, he finds a well he goes in and he

00:35:42 --> 00:35:45

goes there and he and he does his lesson and he comes back to the

00:35:45 --> 00:35:47

masjid and he waits for them to finish the audience's eye shadow

00:35:47 --> 00:35:51

Allah Allah illallah wa niqab who was who? And this man would be one

00:35:51 --> 00:35:54

of the most influential people within the Prophet alayhi salatu.

00:35:54 --> 00:35:58

Salam was Leif afterwards. Why is it that this happened? Well, he

00:35:58 --> 00:36:02

was tied to the masjid for three days. He was tied in msgid. For

00:36:02 --> 00:36:07

three days, he saw the dedication and devotion of the Sahaba he saw

00:36:07 --> 00:36:10

how organized they were. He saw how compassionate they were. He

00:36:10 --> 00:36:15

saw how clear they were. He saw how true they were, how genuine

00:36:15 --> 00:36:18

how righteous they were. He saw it every day for three days straight.

00:36:18 --> 00:36:21

The Prophet alayhi salam was not interested in these silly things.

00:36:21 --> 00:36:25

He was asking for wealth and he's interested in his guidance. That's

00:36:25 --> 00:36:27

why the Prophet it is I'm gonna get out. You're talking to me

00:36:27 --> 00:36:31

about wealth and vengeance and I'm here to see are you have you found

00:36:31 --> 00:36:35

Allah yet? Have you found Allah yet? No, you haven't found that?

00:36:35 --> 00:36:38

Oh, why? Well, why is it taking you so long to find that Allah

00:36:38 --> 00:36:40

Illallah to me start to think, okay, he's looking for something

00:36:40 --> 00:36:43

bigger. And he observed the dedication the activism of these

00:36:43 --> 00:36:47

Muslims. I wonder if you've tied someone in the messenger today?

00:36:49 --> 00:36:53

Yeah. What would they see? What would they feel what they think?

00:36:55 --> 00:36:57

If we if someone observed Muslims in the masjid for three days, just

00:36:57 --> 00:37:00

watch them, watch their behavior, watch their attendance, watch

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

their would they think

00:37:03 --> 00:37:07

it was a different time, it was a different breed of people who just

00:37:07 --> 00:37:09

had a little piece in their hearts that was different than what we

00:37:09 --> 00:37:12

have today. And I swear to you, that if that piece finds its way

00:37:12 --> 00:37:16

back into the Muslim heart, the collective Muslim heart, then

00:37:16 --> 00:37:20

things will change quicker than you can even possibly imagine.

00:37:20 --> 00:37:23

Things change quickly. They do. We have a track record of that, as

00:37:23 --> 00:37:26

Muslims, we have a track record of things going from a really dark

00:37:26 --> 00:37:30

position to a very bright one in record time, in very short periods

00:37:30 --> 00:37:33

of time. The piece that's missing is that degree of dedication, that

00:37:33 --> 00:37:38

devotion, that I know, this next generation has the potential of

00:37:38 --> 00:37:41

having because what they observed over the last nine months is

00:37:41 --> 00:37:42

absolutely

00:37:43 --> 00:37:47

undeniably something we don't want to ever see again, and I just pray

00:37:47 --> 00:37:50

that that's that's the outcome that we find at the end of it. May

00:37:50 --> 00:37:53

Allah subhanaw taala grant us the ability to dedicate ourselves to

00:37:53 --> 00:37:57

his cause subhanho wa Taala as as the earlier as the early OMA did I
