00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			A lot of over
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			at the encampments at 1:30. Yeah. For those
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:06
			of you who are able to make it
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			there to support the students who are,
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:09
			continue who continue to,
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			to to protest peacefully
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			at Western, then you're, yeah, and you're encouraged
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:16
			to do so and try to tell if
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:17
			your time allows. But we left the gym.
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:20
			I'm normally at, intimacy at 3:15,
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			but I will be there inshallah if you
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:22
			would want if you would like to go
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			and show your support inshallah
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:44
			behavior.
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:47
			To understand humbleness, we see how the is
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			So it's more it's not the hadith itself,
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			the wording of it is not is only
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			have nothing to do with humbleness if you
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:55
			don't take a moment to to just, appreciate
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:56
			his character.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			But I think it's nice because we get,
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			we get to talk about 2 different things,
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			and it's a story. So Abu Hamid
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			just a little bit of background. Abu Hamid
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:05
			was a young
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			man during the time of Medina. He was
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:08
			young,
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			in his late teens, early early twenties. And,
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:12
			of course, he later on
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			many, many years, became one of the great,
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:16
			one
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:18
			of the great
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			scholars of Islam that taught Islam to a
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:23
			lot of us, to Abiain, who later on
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:26
			conveyed Islam to the imams of the madrehab
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			that we have today. So Islam is very,
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			influential in the in the transmission of the
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:34
			knowledge. Not only through yani al fiqh, but
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			also through hadith. But he already do us
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:36
			a lot, radiAllahu anhu. He
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:12
			if I haven't heard that he is fasting,
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:12
			so he
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			came and visited me. And here's the piece
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			of the hadith that that is and kind
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			of brings the first counsel
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			of. And the other
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:28
			thing, So I had
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			very good pillow, but that's all they had
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			at that time. And the part and I
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:38
			don't know. I don't took it, and he
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			gave it to the part of Adam to
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:40
			sit on instead of sitting on
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:53
			the the panel to sit on, because this
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:56
			is the way to disrespect your your guest,
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			and he was more comfortable in sitting on
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			a Hasil
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:16
			the humble is not just that. It's not
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			that he sat on the ground. Look, the
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:21
			piece of humbleness to me is that he
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:22
			actually came to Abdullah Abdul,
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:24
			Halim to talk
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:49
			to discuss the issue with him, alaihis salatu
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			wa sallam. That actually is what matters. That
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54
			investment in youth. That investment in human beings.
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:56
			So that creates a certain degree of unbleness.
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			But he would set past one day and
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			break his past the other day. And that
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			is the past day of the of of
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:04
			the entirety of of life. Like, that's if
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:04
			you pass one day and you you break
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:04
			it past the other day, it's like you've
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:04
			passed your whole life. And don't
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			someone who was humble, he didn't feel that
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:28
			this was yeah. I'm taking away from his
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:29
			status. He didn't feel that this was an
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			active tiyat adab from a younger person. I
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:33
			told you this, you take it from me.
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:35
			No. He he negotiated
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:38
			3, 5, 5, 7, 11. The the most
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			is 14. You can't go beyond 14 a
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:41
			month. So he accepted.
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:44
			Then that's the humblest piece. It's really not
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			that he sat on the ground and put
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:48
			the yeah. I mean, the, the power between
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:49
			him and Abdullah ibn Abi. Even though that
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:50
			is,
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			He refused to be okay. The the the
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:55
			man was offering him a certain status, and
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:57
			he refused it, alayhi wa sallam. The woman
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			that he came to his home, It's not
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:01
			when he negotiated with him something, alayhis salatu
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:03
			wa sallam. That's just something that doesn't come
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:06
			from someone who thinks he is, yeah, more
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:06
			than anyone.
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:09
			And he is and
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:10
			he is.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:11
			He
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14
			is. Comes even close, but he doesn't see
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:16
			them self that way. So he'll come to
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:17
			the house of that teenager.
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:19
			And discuss with him maybe how to do
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:21
			things. He'll negotiate and come up with something.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			The fear for his own health and fear
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:24
			for his own deen.
