The speaker discusses three problems that led to the loss of work in Afghanistan: extreme fear, a large quantity of food, and poor working conditions. The work requires long continuous work hours, which is difficult for some people to handle. The drug that causes the drug, nicotine, stimulates the brain and keeps people out of bed, causing them to forget about things. recreational appetite is measured by the number of days in a given year and the number of days in a month, and the speaker emphasizes the importance of art in bringing out the best out of people. The success of their fitness program has been a blessing for their students.

00:00:00 --> 00:00:00
			If
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:02
			you don't get let's see if you can do it.
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:36
			Because why did you at least dig maybe. So everyone started in the first day, and they worked for a
couple of hours. And then they they completely gave up because it was impossible. And there's no
girls at least dig the hole of one person, all of us together. Let's see if we can dig the oldest
one person that that was done back then. So is it okay, so we spent a week going up every day for
five hours an evening digging until we finally dug a hole that was big enough. And we had all the
rubble on the other side. Unfortunately, I took pictures of it, but on a phone that is no longer
available in the world, it's completely destroyed. I don't have any, I don't have that, because we
		
00:00:36 --> 00:01:14
			just log into the picture of it. And it was something I used for years that it was very interesting.
Because we stood there looked at it, it's as powerful as I need to tell us like a week to dig, the
amount that one person dug back. And we have better you know, obviously better shuffles and better
pics, but everything. We had two meals a day is another point to talk to you about the second. We
eat everyday, three times a day, the people we're gonna work on this worked. They were not this big
part of the problem is that they were gonna be working and they knew that there was very little
food, food very skarsten money and at the time, every week, we don't get miss doing fun event. And
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:35
			it makes sense. You could not you could jump in I've done this before I only went to the mercy we
did that took the width of the hunt up and idea people to jump you know, three meters, no one can do
it. No matter how far you come running, you will not jump 10 years, you're the best you can do is
your slam your face into the other side of the hunt up and fall down is the best you can do get this
done. Even horses couldn't make it back that far. Like, could we go for a word of it.
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:39
			So there you can see.
		
00:01:40 --> 00:02:12
			There you go. That's an example of what the hunt up would look like the cross section in the hunt.
So that's 15 years five. Again, these numbers are the numbers I gave her the numbers are a bit more,
I spent a lot of time trying to put up the numbers and the numbers are never accurate. But the
numbers I gave you, these are much more generous numbers, I think seven meters wide as a bit would I
think that's a bit of a stretch. But it's something like that, there's always going to be a
databasing you see where the rubble is on the other side, so the side of the customers, right? So
they can sit behind that mountain of rubble, the sit behind behind there and make sure that no one
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:15
			here is going to say this is a lot of work to
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:19
			keep on going.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:38
			So here are the three main problems. The beginning this, this, this, this whole thing. Number one,
there was extreme fear. They were very, very scared that and that makes a lot of sense because
10,000 people are marching or wait, they're gonna make it here 15 days, you never know they may make
me earlier and then you think you're a completely complete field.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:03:18
			All our enemy wants to destroy you. You have no more friends in the whole land opening she was
inspired to study the Muslims. So people are very scared. You'll find that in the Quran notic a
Boolean. Right was oozing since that day, the Muslims, the believers were were were tested in trial.
And they were shocked a very extreme in earthquakes. And since that is earthquake, and then they
sort of uses the words inside they were an earthquake hit them psychologically speaking not
literally, when they heard that 10,000 word magic, the second problem was finishing on time. That
was a big deal. If they didn't finish on time, this whole thing would be to waste it if you're only
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:53
			halfway done. And they're they're so lost. You've lost them over as well been a complete waste of
time and you're too tired to fight back because you've been digging a hole for 10 days and you
haven't slept well. So this was a big you had to finish on time. This to me this meant that Muslims
needed to be missing great learning, efficient, or needed. Just like we are today my shoulder very
efficient and everything we do getting into parking lots in the parking lot. We are in the shoulder
region, peoples who come in and take lessons from how efficient we are in organizing going and
coming they had to do this and can do it right and on time and properly. Rail System complete waste.
		
00:03:53 --> 00:04:32
			The third problem was hunger. It was the wrong time of the year. There was no dates on the trees
isn't enough food to eat. They were going through a rough rough patch the the Muslim people in
Medina, a lot of money was taken out when they when they left. They took their money with them. And
a lot of the wealth that was circulating Medina had gone out of business and gone and there wasn't
as much food as there was before. So people were in a difficult patch. We didn't have money, you'd
have money to buy food or food physically. There wasn't enough physical food and medium to eat for
people. And he's saying the problem so hunger was a big issue. I mean if you're working 11 1215
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:35
			hours a day 15 hours a day you're gonna need to eat
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:45
			which is how much the products I've worked every day work 15 hours every single day. The time he was
working on just go for it.
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:48
			Okay
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:53
			with before they see the picture.
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:56
			As they worked on this photo,
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			they will say to each other John
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:13
			I got about one. Ember, Java. I talked to you guys about Java a few lessons ago, I remember him, the
guy on the slow camo gave them discount, you got the got the camera and the money. And the guy in
the box,
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:18
			spoke to the son in law had been hammering the * out and the guy who, when he died last
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:30
			night, what do you want it sent me back to Bill. But here's I had to decline Java. So Java after the
sale took interest in him. He took interest in the products, I said that when he made it, he noticed
something. But
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:33
			we're not going
		
00:05:37 --> 00:06:17
			to more and should either, as you were working on, I looked at the problem somebody sent me send
them working. And when they can see what he used to do on a summons, he would do the he would carry
dirt, meaning people were digging and he would go and do the job of you have to carry dirt like
before meters onto the side and unloaded. And of course that's very dirty, because your clothes are
a mess, I can do that. And when he was doing it one day, I didn't use a shirt comes up on the job
and looks nice. I found a profit place and then the stomach couldn't keep going inside. It was this
weak stomach was sticking, sticking to his back police officer sort of spot me for so long. But the
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:18
			abdominal
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:26
			more than cheerleader can vary. It's very small. I noticed that that stat was so so I said This is
unreal.
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:58
			Give you the picture of how they how they didn't say they needed they needed to have like a small
ladder. There's maybe a little bit of a exaggeration of it but I need the gentlelady as I just did
the ladder to get up and you have to carry that dirt and carry the dirt is the worst part like if
you're just standing there digging after you finish digging, you wait for someone to come and take
the dirt you can rest but when you're when you're taking drugs yep that the whole time you're
working basically you're going back and forth by the time you're back here there's more dirt to take
so you're just working it's the worst job digging is easier for the prophesizing refuse to take
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:17
			something easy always the hardest of all jobs to kind of bring them forward and when he he did a
slice and the way he did is that he had to go to each group every day he had to go and spend 50
minutes each every group every hour equals where there 60 groups right 60 groups and 150 minutes per
each to how many hours you need to spend just just carrying dirt
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23
			you need 12 hours right? I need a quarter of
		
00:07:25 --> 00:08:00
			it a quarter of an hour for each group every quarter groups you would need an hour and 15 hours to
filter 15 hours so you have to spend twice and the more than half the day during the 15 hours 15
hours a day just just carrying dirt please don't lose why to bring up the morale of each and every
one every group want to make sure that every group you felt good about every good call that they
were being any supported by their products. And then he had another job yet it goes to the job
itself. It has done on that mountain because that mountain has been on to where he gets to see the
entirety of the hammock is he gonna trench all five kilometers a bit see everyone doing
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:33
			it it wasn't quality inspections that you got to take a look at at home or on site they would go and
they go back and forth to tradition expecting seeing it as being done well or be curving in or out
too much. Is it is it is it is it too narrow in certain points is it too is it not deep enough? Is
it not done well enough? Do we not have trouble on this site? It was a big profit system work didn't
they? He was never seen so tired never ever before this I should have wanted to hear of course his
time and time again they never saw him so I said I'm so tired as much as they saw him during this
time let's go forward
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:41
			all right. So this is what i This is the part of the story that I enjoy
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:49
			after they immediately change and it wasn't a miracle that they actually agreed to do it
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:55
			the prophets I send them made the groups and put the leaders teach group
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:02
			Allah
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:07
			Allah
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:13
			bless
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:21
			should I should I go?
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:49
			My
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:58
			fellow
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:00
			Oh,
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:03
			I see
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:12
			a long way to go oh
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:32
			I can remember we said this last time we're not
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:42
			sure what to do here. Just before the hunt that happened there was a ruling that was reviewable who
could tell me what the ruling was That was that was reviewed just before there's
		
00:10:45 --> 00:11:23
			anything that affects your brain is so harmless, right? So anything that will intoxicate you any
recreational intoxicants or Hello This was a ruling that was revealed just before and the reason I
think it was revealed just from conduct as default I think that it was like they were given it given
a command and they didn't follow it. And boy did things go badly after that things just could not
get better after they made that mistake. So they were given another chance by Watson Tada Alright,
beforehand occasionally let's see if you've learned your lesson. Let's see if we give you a command
will you immediately follow it? Are you gonna do what you didn't offer them and some of you follow
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:41
			it some of you not so the ruling of yet in Namaha Manuel mace you were on Sabol Istanbul It is on
Amelie Shivani fajita anymore who are looking to click on the I came say that cover and enduring
charges against your brain. Not just this is not that I have alcohol, alcohol is alcohol and Arabic,
Arabic and Arabic.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:12:17
			That puts a veil on your sobriety and that takes away your sobriety any recreationally. intoxicates
you is how long this has been the ruling since the Dixons day wasn't the problem. So I sent them
explained the HIA. This has been an interesting so whether it's alcohol, whether it's drugs, whether
it's marijuana, whatever it is, if it's if it's recreationally being is being used recreationally
being your intoxicating yourself for recreational purposes just for the fun of it. And it's this is
a study that was done this is a done deal. There's really no argument on this as we know about
important now the usage of of medical intoxication is different meaning if you are someone who's
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:23
			going to go into a an operation, and you need someone to fix your heart or fix your leg or fix a
part of it that is
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:57
			so coffee is not intoxicating. There's another nicotine is not an intoxicant, nicotine, it just it
just is a stimulant, because you have something in your in your body, if you study biology, you'll
you'll need there's something on muscarinic receptors and something called nicotinic receptors. So
then the receptors in your in your body are called nicotinic. receptors. Why? Because there's
something called nicotine in your in your body that stimulates them that keeps you awake. So the
reason that coffee works is it because it has nicotine that stimulates the receptors that you have
doesn't talk to get you one bit intoxicants or something else, they come and they dole down the
		
00:12:57 --> 00:13:24
			nerve, the nervous system response, they dulled down your nervous system response and to take away
your sobriety. And you'd be doing that a lot when you when we have when you're when you're being
taken for operations. Basically, with that guy, that fun guy who just the thing on your face don't
get counted back down from 10. And you make it up to seven, and then you're knocked out. That's
basically medical intoxication, but you need it because if you don't do it to you, you will die out
of pain shock, because you cannot just sit there was suddenly sewing your leg off, or someone's
opening, tying your your chest open and playing with the arteries of your art, you can do it. But
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:36
			the difference between medical intoxication and recreational intoxication is the doctor who
prescribes it for you based on diagnosis. So are people allowed to just say this? Because I get this
question too often. And maybe someone's listening here
		
00:13:38 --> 00:14:05
			is marijuana. Can it be used medically, of course it can. Everything can be used medically. But who
will who will decide whether this can be used medically or not, is going to be a physician. And he's
going to give you a diagnosis. And he's gonna give you a dose, he's going to give you a
prescription. And then you can use what He tells you to use because he's a physician does its thing
to you, and you can tell him that I'm not doing but I don't if you could choose from me being
something that is toxic and something that's done and toxic and choose something does not
intoxicated that you'll make a decision based on his medical expertise. And that's and that's
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:33
			acceptable, because a lot of the mitigations that you take that you take normally how we implement
toxic ins, but their medical and toxic is different. So there's a big difference between medical
intoxicants and recreation just for the fun of it, intoxicants recreational toxicity, as in drinking
alcohol, doing drugs or smoking marijuana. That's how long period that's the end of it. So nothing
else for us to talk about. Medical intoxication is something that will be decided by physicians, and
you will have a diagnosis of restriction and the dosage that will be taken. Yes.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:59
			Cigarettes again, do not intoxicants. Well, that's a whole different story because they're attached
to 35 different cancers proven and studied for the last 35 to 65 years. Meaning when you come to
meet him at the hospital, I asked you do you smoke? We say yes. I asked you for how long do you
smoke work. And then you give me a number on a Google glacier and I put that in your file and you
have a 25 pack year history of smoking is called pack here. And that gives you an indication that
the higher the likelihood of you having one cancer or prostate cancer
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:31
			lung cancer, all the different other cancers because it's cancerous, I can tell you that that's the
reason so the difference between in toxicity and between something that you're doing that will lives
literally killing you for years and years people smoked and nothing was a problem with it because it
didn't know that it actually killed you actually destroying your the, the tissue of your lung very
slowly. And it was now the other type of cancer Genesis elements. Were going into your bloodstream
and actually destroying other parts of your body as well. And because we know that today is hard,
because we in Islam, we have the basic rulings if something that directly harms you indirectly
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:59
			microdose column if you prove it scientifically as Quran, you don't need a federal for it, you don't
need to actually save that support for an hour he told you it is going to kill you is that and then
another rule is anything that occasionally talks to gates he was cut off, you don't need to you can
bring all these different things. There are mushrooms that come from the earth that you can easily
get on top to get you using them recreationally is haram because we don't give up our sobriety
unless we don't really have to, unless we are medically ill you don't give up your sobriety
actually, you're not allowed to come towards prayer is your second line that does
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:23
			not come to prayer. If you're intoxicated doesn't want you to speak to him sometimes out of your
mind isn't there to come back when you're sober. He's not interested in you will loving Him speaking
to him reciting his book with half a brain working later you don't doubt yourself, they'll come
back. Unless of course, it's done medically. That's a difference, a different story. What if you
like smoke a cigarette, but then you stop but they use dice?
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:27
			Up? No one dies from one cigarette? Yeah, no, like,
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:31
			you smoke for a long time. But then you start with
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:47
			a tool that shows kind of accepted for you. Sometimes it works, sometimes the harm has already been
done. That's why you have to be really careful with the choices you make as a young age. If you're
huffing and puffing going, this is cancer for a long time. Sometimes you can fix it by just
stopping. All right, you have a question? Are we gonna
		
00:16:49 --> 00:17:18
			lose the same thing? There's really no difference? Yeah, see, we don't know that yet. And there's a
lot of miscommunication about this. Like when it comes to vaping. They claim to say that there's
going to continue and there's nothing else in it. I totally challenge that at this point, if that
can be proven scientifically, that there's really nothing else in it. But smoking, that smoke
doesn't have the density that is strong enough to actually harm lung tissue, that we'll have a
different discussion about it. But I don't believe that we have that any evidence to support that
yet, actually, I'm seeing more and more young people come in with different types of bronchitis and
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:18
			something called
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:52
			a pneumothorax, or basically, the lung, small villi in the lung are popping on the sidelines of
vaping more than when the cigarettes at this point. So I don't know, I don't have enough information
to actually tell you whether it's okay or not, I would I would highly suggest as a young person who
is athletic and $100, and kind of getting a strong buddy not to be you know, shoving smoke into
their system, especially you do understand you need your lungs, right? That was explained to you at
some point in school that you need your lungs to actually live that you can't live without them. And
they don't really regenerate themselves. So if you destroy your lung, your lung is done and you die.
		
00:17:52 --> 00:18:24
			So you can't really live for more than a couple of seconds without it. So think twice before you
start doing something harmful or playing around with the body and the viability of your of your
very, very important organ like alcohol kills delivery, smoking kills the lives, maybe we should
stop it maybe. And marijuana takes away the brain. In what way? What are you without your lungs,
liver and brain really, nothing else is working. So make sure that we pay attention to these things.
But again, the whole point of me telling saying this is what the Sahaba were given the similar
thing. Most Arabs are always drinking, they they would destroy their culture with a culture of
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:31
			drinking, they were really good at it. And they go in and make all these different types of wines.
And they loved it. And when the when the idea came and said is haram.
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:40
			It was like a test. All right, we told him not to do something he didn't listen to last try now.
Someone has helped
		
00:18:41 --> 00:19:13
			us see. But if I said Isaac, but in Manila, everyone, wherever come and they had in the house, the
water in the house in the pouring into the streets, and the streets flew, were overflowing with the
we cover that night. Everyone emptied over some of the items in the house and they never drank
again. That was the end of it. Why? Cuz they learned their lesson. We are never going to disobey
Allah Subhanallah we made the mistake once and we saw what happened wrong as we begin to be followed
immediately. I think that's important story of sharing with everyone here. So
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:18
			so this is the favorite Go Go for it to the end of the slide.
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:21
			Just to the end of the slide.
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:56
			So, the beautiful part of digging the trench with the prophets, I said was the high morale. You
understand what morale means? If you have a fantasy team? Are you planning it anything any video
games where you have like a team or something they put something up or out for you? Because morale
is down. He's only motivated to do much right? It's still up to him. It's similar to motivation. If
you have overall motivation, you don't do as much you may be able to do a lot, but you'll feel like
it's you know when when you're yelled at or when you're spoken to or mistreated. You may know how to
do the task, but you don't really feel like doing the tasks you don't feel motivated to do if your
		
00:19:56 --> 00:20:00
			morale is low. Why? Because people aren't speaking to you properly, don't feel happy and people are
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:32
			already very hungry because the fact that was very scarce food and Medina and 10,000 people were
marching towards them and you were doing a task that was close to impossible because of a dig you
had to take 40 cubic meters in 10 days and that is I dare you to do and go try. Go try yourself
coming back no don't evacuate is down below go somewhere else, maybe a place we can actually dig and
try and dig something similar. You'll see this is a very, very difficult and heinous task and it
takes a lot of time. A lot of effort that you put into this, so they're tired, they're scared,
they're hungry, they're fed up, they're unsure so what do you need to fix all that
		
00:20:33 --> 00:21:06
			something to bring up the lift the the we're all part parts, it's always the way to do it. Right?
Alright, so well if it wasn't music at the time, it was something similar to music I suppose it was
song was chanting and I guess I agree in certain certain extensive music it becomes it becomes a
necessity in the community because you need art, but you need art, the concept of art you need to
have art that community that has art list as a community that cannot motivate itself that cannot
build its own culture that cannot move forward that cannot get through difficult times that they
have nothing to reclaim it by they have nothing to lean on. They need art so the brothers needed one
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:32
			or two he called he called Abdullah he called the all the posts got mad and he said okay, see things
see things where the share stuff so I'm alive and he started to chat. He said Hola, hola Manila and
Dana. Whatever from Doc Now what else are Lena is thinking the personnel like I'm doing much better
than I believe and they're singing anyway. Violin Zealand's psyche and Elena with a beaten up Danna
in painter in that
		
00:21:33 --> 00:21:39
			arena, but in our new fitness arena. And of course, this is happening and I was standing there.
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:42
			And he's like, What is this?
		
00:21:46 --> 00:22:08
			What did he say? Say? We are working in the one this one is right here. The sentences he didn't
think this was proper. He didn't think was proper. He's like, What are you doing? You are the
Prophet Muhammad you're singing? Are you making this whatever this is saying he was not having any
thought this was not proper. And then he was surprised because at the time of love Allah had
finished things in his in his machine. Every time he finished a verse the product wasn't like this.
So he was
		
00:22:10 --> 00:22:16
			we see this you say Hola Hola Mundo that antenna Dana. What are your thoughts on Donna what else
Elena the prophesy MC for Lena.
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:24
			Then and then I want to keep on going but NZ Lindsay Akira 10% of the money laughing at the bubble
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:50
			every time because I did not know how to sing at all. Yeah, no, but he was really bad with the
rhythm really bad with the Doom. So the best thing you could do is just say the last word if you
come from an Arabic country you know they do this all the time. If someone is saying poetry whenever
they're finished, whatever the last syllable was, everyone will spin out the last sale was a crazy I
don't know why they do it. But we do it all the time. And we think is a lot of fun. If you do one
