Adnan Rajeh – Mindfulness of the tongue #10

			Yeah, he asked this young man Do you know any of it? Colin um, I do a column he in Arabic That means
give me an answer to who beta. So I told him a verse of poetry because he made another one and said
to beta call Allah He had said to me a debate until I recited for him 100 100 verses of poetry.
Takada, the HUD curd and use nem almost arrived at Islam on his own. And the ratio of Marlon
bingeable paella in Bologna less. Sometimes words are like magic, and I'll talk about that tomorrow
and show that he almost except this time, he didn't make it may be salt didn't accept Islam, never
did
		

			get the private ally aside to assume not only was interested in his poetry, he asked someone to
recite those pieces of poetry to him. Now, not only did he ask a Sahabi but that's the hobby knew at
least 100 verses
		

			you know, how all of you know lyrics to certain you're not going to come and tell me I share fake
memory, you know them the moment to beat Startseite they write they just come out because you know
the lyrics you just know the lyrics not going to come and tell your father about or you know, boast
about it. But you know, the lyrics of these songs, or of these pieces of poetry that are important
for your time? Normal? It's normal, it's always been normal. It's never been abnormal for you to
know the popular aspects of poetry within your time. Should he didn't sway did and why are they even
devil did and the provider you sought to ascend didn't find it weird that they did, he asked he
		

			actually expected them to and ask them to recite it upon him. He was more interested in the part of
popular culture that had a little bit of wisdom in it, or you saw to Islam. He wasn't interested in
the garbage that talked about misogyny and, and the idea and the culture of * and drugs and, and
kind of carelessness and no he carried it aside with the part that had a bit of wisdom in it. Even
if it wasn't Islamic wisdom, even if it wasn't though he'd wisdom, even it was wisdom that was
composed and thought of during the time of Chinook by a missionary who died and Mushrik and never
had anything else to add to that than that. But he was still interested in the wisdom that existed
		

			in that he expected the kid to know it, he knew it and he had him recite upon him 100 verses and why
this generation he said I got scared like is he doing this to see how much I know from this. So he
can chastise me for knowing it. Because they should know the Quran instead and provide do I know all
this poetry, everything they did, they knew their poetry, they knew their poetry, poetry well with
the documentation of their culture of their time. piece of art is so important for any society or
community to prevail. You need it. If you take any you take a community, you take a faith or an
ideology, and you you rip out the concept of art and throw it away. Just wait. Just watch them
		

			shrivel into nothingness over time. Because they don't have they're missing. There's something's
missing. It's a miracle. Allah It's a miracle that our Muslims till this day we stand the way we do.
Because we have lost we don't have art, we haven't had art for a couple of 100 years. But Subhan
Allah the Quran carried us through all of it. Because the Quran is so artistic in its own nature,
because the Quran you cannot recite it with you have to sing it. Understanding that what we're
saying here is not what I'm talking about Danny performing on the stage, meaning you can't just read
it as you speak. You can see I've already told you the cover Robbie is in our call a little tight
		

			and you get you do that we kick you out of the machine, we bring someone else, you have to read it
in a voice you have to do whenever there's a med you have to go for accounts. When there's a when
they had to do two counts. There has to it has to sound in a certain way. That's art. That's art.
That's art. What is that? That is art. You're not allowed to recite the Quran, except artistically,
you're not allowed. You're prohibited to recite it as if you're reading a newspaper you have to read
it artistically. Even though it is the most profound philosophical, law based text that has ever
ever existed. The Huck the kalam of Allah subhanaw taala. But we understand the concept of it. The
		

			Prophet alayhi salatu salam had a high appreciation of art, he expected his followers to have a high
appreciation of art. If you don't have a high appreciation of art, I am telling you cannot
appreciate the Quran. You can't you can't if you don't appreciate or you can appreciate the Quran
because the Quran has an aspect has a very strong, beautiful, beautiful artistic side to it that if
you don't understand or you can appreciate that part of the Quran that's missing for you. That's why
people don't enjoy the Quran anymore. They don't they read it because they have to, but doesn't do
anything for them. They don't sit there and complete joy. I remember like I see.
		

			Well, I hate not just doing it.
		

			Let's just say even even artists today they don't. We have an Arabic culture for people who are
huddled know that modern modern Arab songs are garbage. But if you go back to like the old days in
the 60s and 50s you had people like them consume and you had like 30 people who would sing for an
hour, right for an hour. Until this day there aren't lives on because they when they sang it for
		

			They there was a there was a there's compassion and there was some there were some connection to it
now it's all just di Neva CGI. And I don't know I've been playing around with it. It's all it's all
this garbage. It's not I don't know why I'm getting old. So you know, whenever you get older, start
looking at whatever is there anything is all bad but that they still had that compassion that
passion to them. The Prophet alayhi salam when he was saying the end felt it, it came to the words,
you felt that when you heard him it assaulted him because he meant he not only did he read it, he
understood what he was reading and he meant when he was reading, and that's how the Sahaba did. And
		

			that's how it was done for a long time. Until recently. I think it's not just the fact that we're
disconnected from the Quran. No, I think it's because we're also disconnected from art from, from
tasting art and enjoying and appreciating art. I think there's something missing here. Something
missing. And I'm not saying go and listen to all the garbage that's out there and not there's not
even a debate about music here. That's what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to say that as a culture as
a community as a face. i We need art. You can't expect me to be able to bring Shabaab to the massage
and to keep them here without it. You can't You're asking me to do the impossible is not possible.
		

			You need art and keep it going. The Arab had their poetry and it was irrelevant. Why do you think a
sun and cut and carbon Ebola Wallahi Islamically. They hadn't. They were not. They were not early
on. And they were not great Yaniv fighters. They actually have a story of Abdullah not being a great
fighter and being very scared when he was given the the leadership of Buddha but they were artists.
And the words they said would live on their poetry till this day exists. Till this day you can we
don't memorize but it's still there. Hola. Hola. Hola, hola. And Dana without also Donna what else
Elena, but in Zeeland, Sakina and Elena with a bit of luck in El Macatawa Lena and in Urdu, fitness
		

			and Albanian and the Prophet Allah has also been a been a you know, sort of like Selim. And those
words lived on in their minds. Because there was poetry. It documented a time it documented a
feeling it gave it gave him something to refer to the day we said that, till this day, we seem
fallible. We don't even have authenticity to that song. We can't even authenticate that song but it
because it's so meaningful to us. You're here to write about what you think of the Think of
individuality you saw to us and we think of Medina you think of a stallion that you see a lot in
your mind you can see without on the car, but that's what you see. It's art. It touches you to
		

			something beautiful.
		

			Without that something's missing. He appreciated the earliest thought was, that's why we have these
ahaadeeth We have to learn to appreciate that again, or else we're walking on very thin ice. The
other way that you know Muslim one feels so heavy and it should even psuedo Allah one who call Rajiv
to rasool Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa early he was selling them a Yeoman for Kyle has dabbled in
machinery Omega to me, you're salty, but go to Nam for Tata he Fancher to Baden Bacara. He ventured
to debate and propaganda he had to debate for pardon.
