			The book of Allah subhanaw taala the Quran contains many to us.
		

			It is mentioned on numerous occasions the different donors that Allah azza wa jal narrates to us
from the daughters of the Prophet sallahu wa salatu salam, or the other dogs that Allah azza wa jal
relayed to us in the Quran. Whether it's to ask for forgiveness and mercy, Darius for guidance and
steadfastness upon the religion, do ask for the righteousness of your family and your children. But
there is only one day in the Quran in which the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was ordered and
commanded to seek an increase in something, to seek more of something. And that is the dryer that is
mentioned towards the very end of surah Taha, which Allah subhanaw taala says commanding our Prophet
		

			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and then therefore by extension Mian you. He says what will rob busy the
nearing man and say, Oh my Lord, grant me an increase in knowledge. That's the only time in the
Quran that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is told to ask more of something, an increase in
something. And it shows you the importance of knowledge in this religion, how it is the cornerstone
of many of the things that we do. For persons and of knowledge. They don't know how to differentiate
between what is the heathen what is ship? They don't know the difference between what is sunnah? And
what is benign innovation. They can't tell the difference between halal and haram what is pleasing
		

			to Allah, or what is displeasing to Him Subhana wa Tada. And that is why a Sofia Anibal Marina Rahim
Allah Tada then said, that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam once he was given the instruction
in the Quran, he continued to increase the knowledge sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, until the day that
he died, not only to the increase in seeking knowledge, but anyone who studied the Sunnah. Anyone
who's picked up a book of Hadith, and you want the soup at the different stages and events in the
life of the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam will know very clearly, that one of the major roles
of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam played in his life was the role of a teacher. He taught,
		

			not only from the minbar or at the front of the masjid, but he taught in every single situation,
every single event that he was in, whether it was at home with his family and his children and
grandchildren, or whether it was with his close friends and companions, or whether the Bedouin man
just came from the desert and he came seeking something each one of those instances and many more in
between, were opportunities of learning and teaching. And that is because Allah azza wa jal gave
this command to him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
		

			the whole community of Medina, the whole generation of the companions were students of knowledge. We
only know the more famous from amongst them, because there they are the ones who were known for this
deal, and the ones who excelled in this, they were the ones who memorize the Sunon related to us,
but the very many hundreds in between whose names you probably don't know you've never heard of. But
then we're narrated and they're recorded in the books of the scholars, the vast majority of them we
don't know, need, meaning that we don't know well or enough about them. They will still students of
knowledge, because the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam didn't allow his community didn't allow
		

			the Muslims to be people of ignorance. That's what makes this OMA different from any nation that
came before it or after it. What makes Muslims different from any other religion, that we practice
our religion based upon knowledge, not just based upon cultural customs based upon what someone says
or thinks based upon trends
		

			and patterns that take place around us. It is based upon what Allah said, what the Prophet said
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and that is why I'm delighted Mr. Udo the Allah one in what is
collected and returned by an Imam Malik in his mapa. He said, addressing the people of his time, and
he'd been Masood rhodiola, who was one of the early Muslims, one of the major companions, one of the
most senior in knowledge of the Allah Who and even Massoud said, and he died only two decades after
the time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said to the people of his time in a confused
man in Cathy room fuqaha, who called Eden Quran, you are fortunate addressing those people that he's
		

			talking to, you're fortunate to be living in a time in which the scholars are many. And the people
who read without understanding are very few and far between. Because if you don't go to be Mr. Road,
you find him in a bus. And if you don't find him in a bus, you find the bin armor. And if you don't
find the bin Armada, you find the Boo Herrera. And if you don't find the Burera, you go to Asia, or
the Allahu Germain. And if you don't find any of those companions, there's students from amongst the
most senior of them at that time. Each one of them was in a mountain of knowledge and piety.
		

			But then he said, Well, I can, while I can, so forget, he's a man on earliness. But they will soon
come a time upon people believe on fuqaha cathedral Quran where the scholars will be few and far in
between. But those who read without understanding will be many, they will become the majority. And
that's because we know that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in a number of a hadith. He told
us that that is one of the signs of humanitarian is warning people a time will come where the
scholars have few, much not because people can't read the people who read will be many, whether they
read the Quran, and they don't understand it, whether they pick up a book of Hadith and they don't
		

			understand it, whether they're listening to lectures or whatever they're doing, but they don't
really understand what it is that they're reading. And that is when things become dangerous. That is
why even miss Rudra the Allahu Allah is telling his people to be aware of that time. The Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam didn't allow anyone to go away without seeking knowledge. Even the
people who would come from far distances delegations that would arrive they only had a week, 10
days, two weeks a month in Medina. So all they had that's the lump sum of their interaction with the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam didn't allow them to leave and go back until they sought enough
		

			knowledge that they needed for their religion. No one was considered to be an ignorant person. And
if someone was ignorant, they didn't know they made a mistake. They learned people taught them
because that is what makes this religion different. That is what makes the Sharia different. That's
what makes us as Muslims different from everyone else around us know what is clicked about the
moment of Makati Rahim, Mahalo, Tala in the Sunni on the authority of boo after the luthier of the
Allah one. He says, just to show you how the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam categorize people
when it comes to this issue of learning and seeking knowledge about wealth that said, we were
		

			sitting once with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and he was teaching us. And as he was
teaching, three people entered three men entered. The first one he saw space within the gathering.
So he came in, he sat down, the second one was shy. So he sat at the very back of the masjid. And as
for the third one, he didn't sit but he just saw what's going on and he left after the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam finished teaching, he said to them, and Bureau C'mon Oenothera shall not
inform you about these three people who have entered a huduma for our you know, Allah, He for our as
for the first form amongst them, the one who came you found space he came, he wanted to see
		

			closeness to Allah. So Allah dream closer. You saw nearness to Allah. So Allah Botha near, you saw
protection and Allah so Allah protected him. He wants you to lift off from himself. That difficulty
of ignorance when you don't know what's right or wrong. You commit an action you perform something
you don't know Will it bring me closer to Jana, or closer to the fire? So you go back to Allah azza
wa jal and seek knowledge. You seek guidance, you make dua, you try. You make an effort you seek to
learn, not because you're a scholar, you want to be an Imam, or you want to give the hope by next
week, but because it's what's best for you in your religion. So what's going to protect you in this
		

			life, your family, your children, is what makes you have the confidence in sha Allah, that you're
worshiping Allah azza wa jal upon Basilan insight and knowledge. Welcome Amala her and ask for the
second man, the one who was shy sir, at the very back didn't want to do feel he could be part of the
gathering, but at the same time, didn't want to leave. So what does he do neither here nor there,
doesn't want to study doesn't want to leave so he sits at the very far back. And Muthoni for Statia
for steady Allahu Minh. As for the second, he was shy and embarrassed, so Allah treated him with
that same type of embarrassment. You're too shy. You're too embarrassed to learn your religion on
		

			Las Panatela doesn't have need of me or you doesn't need to teach us he doesn't gain anything. Your
knowledge is is based upon how much you are willing to learn. And that's really memorable Holly
Rahimullah Tyler mentioned the Steemit of Mujahid Rahim Allah Tala, the female students have been
our best or the Allahumma lietaer limo mustachian Olam stuck there are two types of people don't
seek knowledge they don't learn the one who is too embarrassed to learn the one who's too arrogant
to learn. Those two people don't learn they don't seek knowledge. And that is why Aristotle the
Allah one has said and also will remember mahadi collects niggemann Nyssa una Circulon SAR let me
		

			I'm not gonna hire
		

			Dean, the best of women that I saw Arusha is saying Rhodiola Juana was the women of the Ansara.
Because the women in the time of the Prophet send them lent as one wasn't just for a few select
people, the women would come and they would learn, they would ask the professor them to teach them,
they would want times when he would come and address them. And if they had questions, they would
seek him out. sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the most pleasant of women. She said, Well, the women of
the Ansara their natural shyness that women have the natural shyness didn't stop them from learning
their religion. They would come even if they were shy, even if it was a sensitive topic, even if
		

			it's something which you don't normally speak about in front of still strangers, literal men, but
they had to learn and they wanted to know the halal and haram. So they would come and they would
speak to the Prophet SAW Allah while he was sitting them.
		

			Were methodical among the Prophet Selim centers for the third man, the one who just turned away
didn't stay far out of out of the law one, the man turned away, so Allah azza wa jal turned away
from him.
		

			If you don't have the humility, to learn and study, you don't have within you that desire and a
passion to want to learn about your religion, that shows something about your nature, show something
about your willingness to learn and come close to Allah subhana wa Tada because it is human nature.
		

			That when you love something, when you're passionate about something, there's not a single one of us
here who doesn't have a hobby and interest or passion, except that that passion drives us to learn
about it, to want to know more to engage in it because that's why we've taken that passion on why we
have that interest that hobby. But if as Muslims there is nothing more beloved to us than Allah,
than the Prophet of Allah, so Allah wherever you send them, then the book of Allah the Quran, the
religion of Allah azza wa jal, Islam, that has to show in the way that you're willing to interact,
to engage, to learn to seek knowledge concerning it. And that is why even in the time of the Prophet
		

			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the in were not excluded. The processor mode encouraged the youngsters
to come to learn to seek knowledge, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would see from amongst
them those that he thought were most evil, those that he thought had the most potential, and he
would pick them out and he would teach them and he would give them time, he would encourage them and
motivate them. Because the children of today are the scholars of tomorrow. Those youngsters of today
are the leaders of the OMA tomorrow. And if knowledge stops and become stagnated with just one
generation and the people that come after don't see any benefit or any need to learn that is when
		

			knowledge starts to disappear from this OMA
		

			the Hadith remember Buhari Rhodiola Rahim Allah Tala collecting so here we have the Lebanon Amara,
the Allahu Anhu he said that once the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam said to us in nomina
szegedi shutaura Learn to Speak to water Koha will hear method will Muslim for had the Fulani Mahi.
Indeed from amongst all of the trees there is a tree its leaves level for example is like the
example of the Muslim what is the tree? The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is posing this
question to a number of companions. Eben Amato was from amongst them. But Abdullah bin Amara, the
Allahu Anhu at the time was a young man, a teenager, and he felt shy and embarrassed that he should
		

			speak in front of people who were older than him, more senior in knowledge than him had been Muslims
longer than him. So he didn't see anything. So he says that the different companions started
mentioning the different trees of the desert. As for me, I thought to myself, that is going to be
the day palm tree, but I was too shy to speak. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam then said
in nama hiya Nala. It is the deep palm tree even almost said and I went home and I told my father
Mr. Ravi, Allah one, this is what took place. And this is what I thought I didn't say it, Amato the
Allahu and said, Oh, my son had you spoken, it would have been more beloved to me than any type of
		

			wolf. That would have been more beloved to me. Because there is a time to be shy and embarrassed.
You sit in front of your parents, you sit with elders, you sit with certain groups of people, it is
good and it is from true character to show a level of respect and shyness before them. But there are
times when you can't be shy. And one of those times is when it requires you to learn about your
religion. There are times when you can't allow your arrogance or your pride or what you consider to
be
		

			self respect to stop you from learning about your religion. And that is why the companions or the
scholars of Islam is to say, the one who can humble himself will never learn knowledge requires
humility. Whatever you learn whoever you learn from in any type of science that you learn, requires
humility to start sit in front of a teacher and to take knowledge from them. But if you do it for
the dunya, we do it for our careers. We do it for our education. What about when it comes to the
religion of Allah subhana wa Tada. And that is why from the moment that the Prophet salallahu alayhi
wa sallam was sent with the command to seek knowledge in this religion, Accra, we'd learn from the
		

			very first moment until the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam died, and he passed away. He spent
his life teaching people and spreading knowledge of this religion. And that is why the Prophet told
us sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the knowledge is the inheritance of the prophets. That's what they
left behind each and every single Muslim. Therefore each and every single member of this community
of this ummah, has the opportunity and the ability to take not from the inheritance of your mother,
your father, your grandfather, but the inheritance of the Prophet of Allah salAllahu Alaihe will
send them the best of mankind and the best of creation, as a scholars would say after they will
		

			narrate this hadith, it is up to you, how much of that inheritance you want, or how little of it you
want, as Allah subhanaw taala that he makes us from the people who take beneficial knowledge and put
that knowledge into action, and that Allah azza wa jal raises through knowledge in terms of our
deeds and in terms of our ranks and our status. BarakAllahu. Ronnie was soon one of our new young
female human diet to hikma Apolo Cody Harada was stockfeed Allah howdy, welcome. What did you bring
was the medium including the mid for sofiero in Hokkaido, how far
		

			it's been leveled from the the LAO salatu salam ala Rasulillah, who are early he was r&b Engineering
and Math steamed that I mentioned to you have been Miss roadworthy Allahu and shows to us a reality
that we're very familiar with living in a time when the people of knowledge are few. But the people
who seek or who pretend to have knowledge or who can just simply read, but with very little
understanding, or money. And the difference between the two is always those who are willing to learn
and put in the time and effort and those who aren't. We live in a time when we are surrounded by
difficulties and trials and tests, tests that affect us and our family, our children in our
		

			religion. And it is difficult in this time because of the way that we're bombarded with information
with how easy it is to access different types of information to differentiate between what is
correct and what is incorrect. What is authentic and what is weak. What is actually something which
is substantiated from the Quran and Sunnah and what isn't. But the only recourse that we have is
them to seek knowledge and to learn. And that is why the one of the initiatives that we're starting
in sha Allah Tala from tomorrow, in this masjid, is a new study program. It's called Le snap. And as
you go out of the masjid, you'll see these banners that you can see by the entrances, all you have
		

			to do is scan that QR code, go to the website and learn from it. I don't expect every single person
here to attend the course. Nor do I expect every single person to have that same passion maybe and
zeal of knowledge that I maybe have or maybe others have bought something that we should all reflect
upon is that it is our level of knowledge that brings us closer to Allah subhana wa Tada The more
effort that you're willing to put in, the more that you're willing to learn. And remember, as I said
that the companions were not all the most senior people of knowledge. But what made them special was
that each and every single one of them was willing to learn what they could when they could and how
		

			they could. It is something that you need to reflect upon, not only for ourselves, for me and for
you, but more importantly for our children, and for the generations that will come ask ALLAH SubhanA
wa Tada that Allah azza wa jal guides us to what is best, and that Allah subhanaw taala shows His
mercy and forgiveness upon us that Allah azza wa jal keeps a steadfast upon this religion and
protects us from the traps of shaitaan as Allah subhanaw taala that he gives us life upon Eman and
death upon Eman and resurrects us with the people of Eman under the leader of the people of Eman the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Subhanallah because at the mercy phone was Santa mahalo
