00:00:17 --> 00:00:19
			salatu salam, ala,
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:21
			many,
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:59
			many brothers and sisters in Islam, I'd like to begin by first apologizing. And apologies, I just
handed gropey about an hour ago. So if I sound a bit higher than a scene with jet lag, it's probably
because I have. So please forgive me if, if I don't sign up, as I showed in Sharla. One of the most
beautiful things in our religion, among the most invigorating things in our religion is that
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			everybody would return home alone.
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:07
			And he would,
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:11
			he would go on some trip, and then he would return to
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			Oxford, he would go to the masjid.
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:28
			And he will go to regardless, we will go for the bigotry, and then we would go home. And it shows
how the mustard is the focal point of the Muslim community. Irrespective of
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:38
			who we are, where we come from, we come to the masjid and this is the focal point. And so likewise,
even though I come from a very long journey, and
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			it is so beautiful,
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:46
			to see so many beautiful faces, and all.
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			The city that I come from in the UK,
		
00:01:52 --> 00:02:01
			like it was weeks ago, but it's only yesterday. And again production in a university. And there were
a lot of students that I was seeing about the universality of
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:11
			universal miniatures. And now we have a low unemployment upon an approach that is far stronger than
the
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			first one within business first.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			And that is
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:24
			the link.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:30
			And so I will say to those brothers and sisters,
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			that tomorrow, I will travel to Edmonton,
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:43
			Canada many times, but this is my first time in Edmonton.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:45
			Never been there.
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:48
			I've never been,
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:57
			I know that. I will find brothers and sisters in my religion. People don't know.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:10
			me now because I'm related to them, not because they will be money while the money not because
there's some favor over them over me simply because of that.
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:36
			And that is something which is truly unique and truly amazing the variable religion. And so I said
at the beginning of this lecture, that I looking for the sake of time, that a person can come from
1000s of miles away. And he can come and travel for hours and hours and come to a part of a country
that has never come to some remote corner of Canada.
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:46
			And this is something which you find that everywhere you go just to kind of dive
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:50
			into winning, or being too
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:57
			many, many, many of you have traveled to many of the cities
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:06
			and want to go to other countries. And if you were to come to the UK or one of the cities that you
go to
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			in the UK, but you will find
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:14
			a question.
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:22
			someone's house, rented shop, office when they come in at a meet.
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:28
			That is something which is amazing. And
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:34
			we often neglect that we don't really appreciate because often we forget
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:43
			and it's only when you travel. When you come into community like this, that it's an easy that you
appreciate
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:54
			and remember that the presence of a lot of great the fact that you have these 250 miles and a
beautiful
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			ambush
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:00
			This is a
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:03
			window
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:10
			into Medina, even before he took his own house, he came and he started to build.
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:13
			And you already have
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:17
			so little on the left
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:49
			something which I just wanted to say, as one means your community, I would like to see returned, I
appreciate this. And that this is something that we have, as a result of the office that we have in
our village. Moving on to the topic of today's lecture
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:54
			promises this will be a very short lecture
		
00:05:58 --> 00:05:58
			is
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:03
			just literally an hour or so.
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:08
			And we came from the airport to downtown Edmonton.
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:19
			numbers on the streets and you can be amazed, but it was 100. And something Street. And
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:29
			this is a weird road. In the UK, if you wanted to go one place like this,
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:31
			we'd have
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:36
			we wouldn't
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:43
			we just gradually have the final
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:48
			outcome. in Edmonton, you have a
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:51
			seat
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54
			is the
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:58
			is the total representative of your of your city.
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:03
			Essentially, there must be some, some wisdom behind this.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:18
			So maybe we need a civil engineer to go to the snow. I don't know what it is. But it was designed
for road riders. But this was my mind. And I said,
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:26
			because we deal with the same thing, a road that goes up and down
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:36
			the road is your life. Life is full of standards, how easy it would be for a road to get up.
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:51
			Whatever your goal and objective is, you want to get married, you want to get a university degree,
you want to find a job, whatever your goal is, it will be so nice. And if
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:55
			you just want to leave a job until you arrive to this destination.
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:58
			It would be nice, but
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:01
			reality is the role
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:04
			of a dog.
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:11
			And so in order to drive on this road, that you have a unique experience
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:24
			and is how we record because it doesn't have to navigate to the seat in front of you.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:31
			And it would be a very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable journey if someone just took that.
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:33
			And they just
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:38
			so you need to know how to navigate through these bubbles. And then you
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:40
			know,
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:46
			you have a goal. You have objectives
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:48
			for the
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:52
			future for the children.
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:59
			peace and serenity ever wants to come closer to the law
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:03
			and so on. But life isn't so simple.
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:07
			And whatever goal you have.
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:16
			And the problem is that the vast majority of us when it comes to the ups and downs of life, we're
like
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:29
			amateurs, we just sit next to them and we go over us we take our foot off the pedal and we go back
down. So with amateurs
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:43
			is he tells us how to drive our car, the car. He tells us how to navigate through these books. This
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:47
			is the most amazing thing.
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:53
			One of the most amazing and beautiful things
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:58
			is white environments for us.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:00
			You will
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:12
			hear certain parts of the format over and above others. So has a special place even in
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:15
			a special place in
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:17
			the clubs.
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:27
			And also for those passages and verses and songs that have a special place is sort of
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:28
			the
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:31
			whosoever
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:37
			will be given a life from that point, until the best
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:39
			of luck.
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:59
			Whosoever memorizes the first 10 persons of circle, they will be saved in the tribal agenda over and
over again, emphasis to cited at least once to me, the soul, and the soul is in the middle of it is
the middle.
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:03
			So, the question would mean, we are
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:07
			encouraged to resign? And
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:15
			the question is always Why, what's the benefit? What's the point? Why is so?
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:23
			To give you a very summarized version, a very summarized answer, it's because
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27
			it tells you how to drive the car
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:34
			is the first sort of
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:37
			for the best.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:43
			Because the
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:55
			companions needed kindness, they needed to know how to overcome the clouds of the bugs that they
would face. And no one faced a more bumpy road
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:01
			with courage with his own family with
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:05
			he and his family and his
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:08
			fortune, and
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:14
			all of these very different books that they have to navigate. And so how
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:18
			to be
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:24
			in the test of life,
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:28
			blank
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:35
			test when you don't know the answers, when in fact, when you don't know what you mean by
		
00:12:37 --> 00:12:38
			the opposite to the test.
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:54
			Because when you go to school, or when you have a job, when you give an adjuster an exam, you don't
know the answers. It's technically from, you know, the subject to give you the material, you must
revise in order to get those exam results.
		
00:12:57 --> 00:13:02
			You see the exact answer, the acceptance, if you want to
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:08
			know what to do.
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:11
			So, by
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:18
			giving you an insight, as to how to overcome the trials of life,
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:23
			seeking external
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:26
			types when it comes to
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:30
			the face, which are
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:31
			internal
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:33
			problems,
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:42
			that you have a disease that you come to see, for example, a person has problems with things.
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:45
			He's
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:48
			speaking about.
		
00:13:53 --> 00:14:01
			The problems that he will face to light, when you go out when you work, when you go and when you put
in a lot.
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:12
			I will give you one example of this. Let us let us just take the first verse,
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:14
			over only verse
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:16
			allows
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:18
			us
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:28
			to to allow the one who wrote
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:32
			the book, and he did not make
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:33
			meaning
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:36
			to the property.
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:40
			And the book is a book which is free.
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:46
			There's no mistakes, no contradictions, no premises, it is a book of
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:49
			confusion.
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:54
			It is one verse, the beginning verse of the soul song
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:57
			how many people know
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:09
			In this verse, how is the name of Omar mentioned?
		
00:15:11 --> 00:15:12
			The name of Allah
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:15
			is essentially investment.
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:19
			Most
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:24
			it is mentioned
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:30
			in this verse, the rest of the syrup is
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:35
			indirectly making child's throat.
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:44
			handful of times, but a lot of requests indirectly, many, many more times.
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:50
			So in First of all, it is only mentioned once,
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:55
			implicitly or explicitly.
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:00
			And we're going to get
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:10
			555 times a lot.
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:14
			In one words, just in one verse, and the
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:17
			old ways is to
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:28
			review an outfit when a person does an action you need, it needs to be
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:34
			an action verb, then someone who performs
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:37
			so he is the one who can build
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:43
			upon this. He referred to Allah, he said,
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:47
			and he did it
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:54
			five times, lovely first result in one place. And the question is why?
		
00:16:56 --> 00:17:00
			Many times. And there are many reasons for this,
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:13
			to go into so much detail, but one of those reasons is to simply show the power and the care and
attention of us.
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:18
			For those of the projects and for
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:20
			the
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:23
			show
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:38
			the commandments of love, and when it comes to the troubles of writing, they follow the methodology
of the law, the law, explicitly and implicitly, in ways that they can see.
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:43
			That they will never know about. And this is why I
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:47
			mentioned this, and you only have to look at the stories.
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:54
			You have to look at the stories of the many prophets of Allah and the storyteller prophets on
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:59
			how many times was
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:02
			explicit explicitly
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:06
			in the back, when they would
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:12
			have an alarm system, yes, the explicit how
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:14
			do
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:17
			you how do you know?
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:22
			So that they wouldn't go in disarray?
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:25
			So
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:32
			existing and interesting when it comes to the books of life, when it comes to this hope that
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:36
			if a person follows the methodology, that is the
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:46
			explicitly and implicitly and that's just one of the benefits that we gain from the first verse
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:50
			and the 110 verses in this.
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:53
			So when we look at this,
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:03
			but the question is about the title of the question is how to overcome the trauma, and
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:09
			in very beautiful ways, using the examples of the stories that I mentioned.
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:15
			Instead, the simple story
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:26
			over and over again. But the truth is, the four major stories
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:37
			are unique to this world. They are not mentioned anywhere else in the story of the people that key
and the story of the man with the two bathrooms and the story.
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:42
			And the story of them for being unique
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:53
			is made up anywhere else. Again, to show and emphasize how strongly it is for us not only to lead
the store,
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:58
			but to understand and to prove to be agile
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:05
			I want to conclude by mentioning just one final rule. And that is sort of
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:09
			some of the signs of human era, we know that
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:13
			there will be certain signs that will come up on the
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:17
			coming
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:21
			from a monster is
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:25
			this group of people known as
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:28
			mentioned towards the end
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:34
			spoke about safety.
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:38
			He didn't mention that he
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:48
			forgot that he said that it will save you from the job, but the job is not mentioned in this book.
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:54
			So, what is that
		
00:20:57 --> 00:20:59
			the sort of the job.
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:10
			And again, the reason will always come back to the main theme.
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:17
			Because the direct link between the source and the job, but it is
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:23
			it is not mentioned in the bus is not the city, but what is in
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:25
			front
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:29
			of the province.
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:31
			So many important
		
00:21:33 --> 00:21:34
			when it comes to
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:46
			commands, that we cite a certain sort of way that we never want to sort of repeated every so often
it is
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:51
			that they go back and they learn that portion of
		
00:21:52 --> 00:22:01
			Remember, the Lord has given you the answer to your exam. That is such a word means to solve those
two problems, a one is giving you the answer.
		
00:22:03 --> 00:22:15
			Or at least maybe try this maybe do this award has given you black and white. This is what you need
to do in order to be sufficient in order to achieve
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:19

00:22:24 --> 00:22:29
			in TGC, and the wind, that knowledge allows you
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:34
			to go and study, just like if we had an example of someone
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:38
			that will come tomorrow
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:42
			on the paper tomorrow. And these are the answers to those
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:45
			which go
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:50
			and learn those answers and memorize them so that they can have
		
00:22:53 --> 00:23:03
			exactly the same, giving you the questions giving you the answer. But it's amazing. And it's a sign
of our state that we know.
		
00:23:05 --> 00:23:05
			We don't know.
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:15

comes to that
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:17

00:23:21 --> 00:23:22
			you will know.
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:29
			But when you try to know that this is how it might
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:36
			mean it doesn't mean that that must be depressing for you that it must be so
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:42
			problems and calamities and difficulties.
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:46
			Students no matter how
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:51
			it is in comparison to the difficulties of the problems.

			was a he was a beacon of strength that he had in serenity that he had so much that even the
compartments of the people would come and converge around so that they could take from this from

			beginning
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:42
			beginning
		
00:24:43 --> 00:24:44
			and beginning
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:53
			those parts of the emphasize to us over the past and then move on to the
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:55
			philosophy
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:59
			that it gives us the ability to understand and truly
		
00:25:02 --> 00:25:03
			traction has
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:06
			ability not only to be
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:08
			a trophy for
