All praise and thanks are due to Allah

00:00:11 --> 00:00:12

subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:00:13 --> 00:00:15

We send salutations and peace upon our beloved

00:00:15 --> 00:00:18

Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:00:18 --> 00:00:23

Respected Musalis, beloved educators and fellow learners, assalamualaikum

00:00:23 --> 00:00:26

warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

00:00:27 --> 00:00:30

On behalf of Islamiyah College, Masjid al-Furqan

00:00:30 --> 00:00:32

and the extended family, we would like to

00:00:32 --> 00:00:34

wish each and everyone a Jumu'ah Mubarak.

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala grant us

00:00:37 --> 00:00:39

a blessed week ahead, inshallah, ameen.

00:00:40 --> 00:00:42

The khutbah and the salah will be rendered

00:00:42 --> 00:00:45

by Kari Ziyad Patel, a renowned Kari and

00:00:45 --> 00:00:47

trustee of the Al-Indad Foundation.

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

Our guest speaker for today is none other

00:00:50 --> 00:00:54

than Achi Ayman, a motivational speaker originally from

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

Iraq who later moved to the UK with

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

his family at a very young age.

00:00:59 --> 00:01:01

Like many people here in Cape Town, brother

00:01:01 --> 00:01:04

Achi Ayman grew up facing various challenges and

00:01:04 --> 00:01:07

alhamdulillah today he is a world-renowned speaker,

00:01:07 --> 00:01:09

inspiring youth right around the world.

00:01:10 --> 00:01:13

His journey serves as an encouragement for youth

00:01:13 --> 00:01:14

all over the world.

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16

I now hand over to brother Achi Ayman.

00:01:46 --> 00:01:48

I'm not Achi Ayman.

00:01:52 --> 00:01:54

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

00:01:57 --> 00:02:00

Brothers, we and sisters and all of those

00:02:00 --> 00:02:04

watching, we're extremely blessed alhamdulillah today to be

00:02:04 --> 00:02:05

in the house of Allah, to be with

00:02:05 --> 00:02:07

the vibrant youth, to be with our special

00:02:07 --> 00:02:08

guests.

00:02:08 --> 00:02:11

This is a beautiful, beautiful occasion alhamdulillah.

00:02:11 --> 00:02:13

Let's take a moment, take a deep breath

00:02:13 --> 00:02:15

and all together let's say alhamdulillah.

00:02:17 --> 00:02:20

Wa la in shakartum la azeedannakum.

00:02:21 --> 00:02:23

We make shukr to Allah, then Allah increases

00:02:23 --> 00:02:24

us inshallah.

00:02:26 --> 00:02:29

So people ask, usually when we're introducing our

00:02:29 --> 00:02:33

guests, we say sheikh graduated at this institute,

00:02:34 --> 00:02:36

sheikh is the imam of that masjid.

00:02:36 --> 00:02:38

This time our introduction is just so different.

00:02:39 --> 00:02:40

And you say but how come we don't

00:02:40 --> 00:02:43

have that conventional traditional introduction?

00:02:44 --> 00:02:46

Because in this case here, we will draw

00:02:46 --> 00:02:49

inspiration from the hadith of Rasulullah s.a

00:02:49 --> 00:02:53

.w. Where Sayyidina Rasulullah s.a.w. was

00:02:53 --> 00:02:54

on the outskirts of the city.

00:02:55 --> 00:02:56

And as he was doing da'wah on

00:02:56 --> 00:02:59

the outskirts of the city, Sayyidina Rasulullah s

00:02:59 --> 00:03:02

.a.w. came across a man by the

00:03:02 --> 00:03:03

name of Rukana.

00:03:04 --> 00:03:06

Rukana was the undefeated wrestler of the east

00:03:06 --> 00:03:07

and the west.

00:03:08 --> 00:03:10

Basically like the pound for pound champion.

00:03:11 --> 00:03:11

Like who?

00:03:15 --> 00:03:15

Islam.

00:03:18 --> 00:03:20

Islam Makashyaf, the pound for pound champion.

00:03:21 --> 00:03:23

So the undefeated wrestler of the east and

00:03:23 --> 00:03:27

the west, and Rasulullah s.a.w. invited

00:03:27 --> 00:03:27

him to Islam.

00:03:29 --> 00:03:32

And he, in order to accept Islam, he

00:03:32 --> 00:03:35

said, if you're able to wrestle me, and

00:03:35 --> 00:03:38

if you beat me, then I will be

00:03:38 --> 00:03:39

willing to listen to your message.

00:03:40 --> 00:03:41

If you wrestle me and you beat me,

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

then I will listen to your message.

00:03:44 --> 00:03:48

Sayyidina Rasulullah s.a.w., the greatest of

00:03:48 --> 00:03:52

Allah's creation, the seal of prophethood, the ameer

00:03:52 --> 00:03:56

of the anbiya a.s., imagine despite his

00:03:56 --> 00:03:58

position, he goes and he engages in a

00:03:58 --> 00:03:59

wrestling match with Rukana.

00:04:00 --> 00:04:02

And Rukana was a wild character.

00:04:03 --> 00:04:05

But Sayyidina Rasulullah s.a.w. beat him

00:04:05 --> 00:04:07

the first round, takbeer.

00:04:08 --> 00:04:12

Then Sayyidina Rasulullah s.a.w., oh, I

00:04:12 --> 00:04:15

see an uncle from where I'm from in

00:04:15 --> 00:04:20

Jowar, Dr. Natti, salamu alaikum, shout out, mashaAllah,

00:04:21 --> 00:04:25

so Sayyidina Rasulullah s.a.w. beat him.

00:04:27 --> 00:04:29

And thereafter they engaged in a second round,

00:04:30 --> 00:04:31

and Sayyidina Rasulullah s.a.w. beat him

00:04:31 --> 00:04:32

again.

00:04:33 --> 00:04:35

And then they engaged in a third round.

00:04:35 --> 00:04:37

Guess who won the third round, brothers?

00:04:39 --> 00:04:41

Sayyidina Rasulullah s.a.w. won the third

00:04:41 --> 00:04:41

round.

00:04:42 --> 00:04:46

According to some narrations, they say after those

00:04:46 --> 00:04:49

three rounds of wrestling, Rukana took the shahada

00:04:49 --> 00:04:53

and Rukana became a sahabi and Rukana became

00:04:53 --> 00:04:56

a Muslim as a result of the wrestling

00:04:56 --> 00:04:59

of Rasulullah s.a.w. So today we're

00:04:59 --> 00:05:02

not introducing a sheikh graduated, and sheikh is

00:05:02 --> 00:05:04

the ustad, and sheikh is the imam.

00:05:04 --> 00:05:05

We're not graduating.

00:05:05 --> 00:05:07

We're not introducing like that.

00:05:07 --> 00:05:10

Because the lesson we draw is our Habib

00:05:10 --> 00:05:13

s.a.w. met the people where they

00:05:13 --> 00:05:14

are at.

00:05:15 --> 00:05:19

Our guest today meets the masses and the

00:05:19 --> 00:05:21

youth of the ummah where they are at.

00:05:22 --> 00:05:25

So Akhir Ayman is not the final destination,

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

he's the beginning of the journey.

00:05:27 --> 00:05:29

He's the point where he meets the youth

00:05:29 --> 00:05:32

wherever you are at, no matter how far

00:05:32 --> 00:05:32

you are.

00:05:32 --> 00:05:35

Akhir Ayman brings you in and through that

00:05:35 --> 00:05:38

connects you to the scholars and that eventually

00:05:38 --> 00:05:39

results in the final destination.

00:05:40 --> 00:05:43

So Akhir Ayman is the starting point where

00:05:43 --> 00:05:45

we meet people where they are at.

00:05:46 --> 00:05:47

We speak about the love languages.

00:05:48 --> 00:05:50

These are the da'wah languages of meeting

00:05:50 --> 00:05:52

people where they are at.

00:05:53 --> 00:05:55

So now it is my great honor to

00:05:55 --> 00:05:58

welcome to the stage, or welcome to the

00:05:58 --> 00:06:01

mic, our very respected guest, who I'm honored

00:06:01 --> 00:06:03

to have with us, who shares his journey

00:06:03 --> 00:06:04

to inspire.

00:06:04 --> 00:06:06

Let's welcome Akhir Ayman.

00:06:07 --> 00:06:07

Falyatafaddaar.

00:06:15 --> 00:06:16

Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim.

00:06:17 --> 00:06:19

Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

00:06:21 --> 00:06:22

I want to start by saying all praise

00:06:22 --> 00:06:24

be to Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most

00:06:24 --> 00:06:26

Merciful, the Most Powerful.

00:06:26 --> 00:06:28

It's only Him we worship and only Him

00:06:28 --> 00:06:29

we bow down to and only Him we

00:06:29 --> 00:06:30

turn to when we're in need.

00:06:30 --> 00:06:32

I also would like to send peace and

00:06:32 --> 00:06:35

blessings upon our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

00:06:36 --> 00:06:39

My dear respected brothers and sisters in Islam,

00:06:40 --> 00:06:41

may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless every

00:06:41 --> 00:06:42

single one of you.

00:06:42 --> 00:06:45

I want to start off by saying takbir!

00:06:45 --> 00:06:46

Allahu akbar.

00:06:47 --> 00:06:48

Barakallahu feekum.

00:06:48 --> 00:06:50

I just wanted to say jazakallahu khairan for

00:06:50 --> 00:06:52

the masjid, for the committee, for even the

00:06:52 --> 00:06:54

deen team for bringing me here.

00:06:54 --> 00:06:56

Subhanallah I didn't get to see Cape Town

00:06:56 --> 00:06:57

the way I wanted to see it.

00:06:58 --> 00:06:59

Cape Town have oppressed me.

00:06:59 --> 00:07:01

You know I'm only joking, I'm only joking.

00:07:02 --> 00:07:05

But my dear respected brothers and sisters, I

00:07:05 --> 00:07:06

want to start off by saying that the

00:07:06 --> 00:07:11

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ stated, الدنيا ملعون ملعون ما

00:07:11 --> 00:07:14

فيها that the dunya is cursed and curses

00:07:14 --> 00:07:15

everything in it.

00:07:15 --> 00:07:17

Now ask yourself this, what is it that

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19

you're attaching your hearts to in this dunya

00:07:19 --> 00:07:21

that is bringing you pleasure?

00:07:22 --> 00:07:24

If it's your parents, if it's your loved

00:07:24 --> 00:07:25

ones, if it's your neighbours, if it's your

00:07:25 --> 00:07:29

business, if it's your cars, if it's your

00:07:29 --> 00:07:32

women, if it's your drugs, what pleasure are

00:07:32 --> 00:07:34

these things bringing to you if it isn't

00:07:34 --> 00:07:36

for the sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta

00:07:36 --> 00:07:37

'ala?

00:07:37 --> 00:07:38

Are these things coming with you?

00:07:39 --> 00:07:41

When you die, and every single soul shall

00:07:41 --> 00:07:42

taste death.

00:07:42 --> 00:07:45

And imagine this, Allah says that every soul

00:07:45 --> 00:07:48

shall taste death, not to say that every

00:07:48 --> 00:07:51

soul shall face death, but taste it, depending

00:07:51 --> 00:07:52

on the taste.

00:07:52 --> 00:07:54

At the time when your soul leaves the

00:07:54 --> 00:07:56

body, it depends if it's going to be

00:07:56 --> 00:07:57

sweet or bitter.

00:07:58 --> 00:08:00

Now ask yourself this, when the angel of

00:08:00 --> 00:08:03

death, Malik ul Maud, comes for your soul,

00:08:04 --> 00:08:05

have you pleased Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala?

00:08:06 --> 00:08:08

Have you pleased your neighbours?

00:08:09 --> 00:08:10

Have you pleased your family members?

00:08:11 --> 00:08:13

Are you in a situation where someone has

00:08:13 --> 00:08:15

a grudge on top of you?

00:08:16 --> 00:08:17

Are you in debt to your neighbour?

00:08:18 --> 00:08:21

If it's not physical or financial debt, are

00:08:21 --> 00:08:22

you in debt when it comes to the

00:08:22 --> 00:08:24

deed or the sins that you committed?

00:08:25 --> 00:08:27

Have you pleased Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala?

00:08:29 --> 00:08:32

And the youth today are not the future,

00:08:32 --> 00:08:33

it's your kids.

00:08:34 --> 00:08:36

And what you adapt into your life today,

00:08:36 --> 00:08:38

understand this, that your kids are one day

00:08:38 --> 00:08:39

going to need it.

00:08:39 --> 00:08:41

And how many times you see some of

00:08:41 --> 00:08:43

the uncles are coming here today, no disrespect

00:08:43 --> 00:08:45

and I love you for the sake of

00:08:45 --> 00:08:45

Allah.

00:08:46 --> 00:08:49

They've come here today, they're complaining, how come

00:08:49 --> 00:08:50

we're not in the front row?

00:08:51 --> 00:08:52

How come we're not sitting in the front?

00:08:53 --> 00:08:56

You came late, the youth were hungry, the

00:08:56 --> 00:08:59

youth want to see and build a future

00:08:59 --> 00:09:00

for the Ummah of the Prophet ﷺ.

00:09:01 --> 00:09:03

So they came to the masjid before you,

00:09:04 --> 00:09:05

you should be happy for them.

00:09:06 --> 00:09:09

If the youth are refusing to come to

00:09:09 --> 00:09:11

the masjid, then you should be worried about

00:09:11 --> 00:09:12

your community.

00:09:13 --> 00:09:14

This is your kids.

00:09:16 --> 00:09:17

And every single one of us lives a

00:09:17 --> 00:09:20

reality that's a façade, that is fake.

00:09:21 --> 00:09:23

Nothing in this dunya we should attach our

00:09:23 --> 00:09:24

hearts to.

00:09:24 --> 00:09:27

And every single one of us, and I

00:09:27 --> 00:09:30

must say this proudly and loudly, do not

00:09:30 --> 00:09:33

even attach your heart to your loved ones,

00:09:34 --> 00:09:36

for indeed I attach my heart to my

00:09:36 --> 00:09:36

mother.

00:09:38 --> 00:09:40

And little did I know that that love

00:09:40 --> 00:09:41

should have been limited.

00:09:42 --> 00:09:47

For indeed, to Allah we belong, to Him

00:09:47 --> 00:09:48

we shall return.

00:09:49 --> 00:09:53

My mother returned back to Allah and the

00:09:53 --> 00:09:55

love that I had for her was known

00:09:55 --> 00:09:58

and shown to me that, Ya Ayman, your

00:09:58 --> 00:10:00

mother belongs to me and does not belong

00:10:00 --> 00:10:01

to you.

00:10:02 --> 00:10:05

Ya Ayman, your love for anyone and anything

00:10:05 --> 00:10:07

in this dunya should be limited.

00:10:08 --> 00:10:10

Now we cherish the memories we have with

00:10:10 --> 00:10:11

our loved ones.

00:10:12 --> 00:10:14

We cherish the memories that we have of

00:10:14 --> 00:10:15

the Prophet ﷺ.

00:10:16 --> 00:10:19

We cherish his sunnah and his vision to

00:10:19 --> 00:10:20

unite the Ummah.

00:10:22 --> 00:10:24

He came for every single person.

00:10:25 --> 00:10:27

He came for every single nation, for every

00:10:27 --> 00:10:28

single culture.

00:10:28 --> 00:10:29

Let me make it clear to every single

00:10:29 --> 00:10:30

one of you.

00:10:31 --> 00:10:34

It is not your flags or your culture

00:10:34 --> 00:10:37

or the borders that unites the Ummah of

00:10:37 --> 00:10:38

the Prophet ﷺ.

00:10:39 --> 00:10:43

It is la ilaha illallah, Muhammad Rasulullah ﷺ

00:10:43 --> 00:10:45

is what unites us.

00:10:45 --> 00:10:48

So put your pride and your arrogance aside

00:10:48 --> 00:10:50

for once, for once.

00:10:51 --> 00:10:52

Are you not tired?

00:10:52 --> 00:10:54

Are you not tired that when someone comes

00:10:54 --> 00:10:58

to ask for donations, but you only give

00:10:58 --> 00:11:00

because it's your nation that's somewhere back at

00:11:00 --> 00:11:05

home in India or Pakistan or Bangladesh or

00:11:05 --> 00:11:05

Iraq?

00:11:06 --> 00:11:07

What is this?

00:11:08 --> 00:11:10

When you give, you dig deep into your

00:11:10 --> 00:11:12

pockets, insha'Allah wa ta'ala.

00:11:12 --> 00:11:14

Look at the situation of the people of

00:11:14 --> 00:11:14

Palestine.

00:11:16 --> 00:11:17

Look at their situation.

00:11:17 --> 00:11:21

They live by the ayah, إِنَّمَا أَشْكُوا بَثِّي

00:11:21 --> 00:11:23

وَحُزْنِي إِلَى اللَّهِ They live by the ayah.

00:11:24 --> 00:11:25

They don't care about the rest of the

00:11:25 --> 00:11:27

Ummah because the Ummah have turned their backs

00:11:27 --> 00:11:27

on them.

00:11:29 --> 00:11:31

That they only complain of their grief and

00:11:31 --> 00:11:32

their worries to Allah.

00:11:33 --> 00:11:35

They lose their mothers.

00:11:35 --> 00:11:36

They lose their fathers.

00:11:37 --> 00:11:38

And what do they do?

00:11:38 --> 00:11:40

They look up and they say alhamdulillah.

00:11:43 --> 00:11:44

Allah is my Lord.

00:11:45 --> 00:11:47

Islam is my deen.

00:11:48 --> 00:11:52

And the Prophet ﷺ is my Rasul.

00:11:52 --> 00:11:53

It's my messenger.

00:11:54 --> 00:11:55

It's my vision in life.

00:11:57 --> 00:11:59

When was the last time you cared about

00:11:59 --> 00:12:00

the vision of the Prophet ﷺ?

00:12:02 --> 00:12:04

A young man came to the Prophet and

00:12:04 --> 00:12:05

he said to him, Ya Rasulallah, allow me

00:12:05 --> 00:12:06

to commit zina.

00:12:07 --> 00:12:10

Look at the comfortability of this youth.

00:12:11 --> 00:12:12

Look at how comfortable he was.

00:12:14 --> 00:12:16

If our youth was to come to us

00:12:16 --> 00:12:18

and tell us, Ya Abi, O my father,

00:12:19 --> 00:12:23

O Imam, I feel like I'm falling into

00:12:23 --> 00:12:24

fitna like zina.

00:12:24 --> 00:12:26

Allow me to commit zina.

00:12:27 --> 00:12:28

What do you say to him?

00:12:28 --> 00:12:29

You will slap him before you give him

00:12:29 --> 00:12:30

an answer.

00:12:30 --> 00:12:31

Now that's his answer?

00:12:31 --> 00:12:33

Did the Prophet ﷺ do that?

00:12:35 --> 00:12:36

Nowadays we have uncles.

00:12:36 --> 00:12:37

By Allah I'm not saying this is your

00:12:37 --> 00:12:37

community.

00:12:38 --> 00:12:40

We have uncles that are forcing the Qur

00:12:40 --> 00:12:43

'an on the youth with violence.

00:12:43 --> 00:12:44

Whipping them with sticks.

00:12:45 --> 00:12:46

Don't make me bring that stick in the

00:12:46 --> 00:12:47

corner and start whipping brothers now.

00:12:49 --> 00:12:50

Is this the reality of the deen of

00:12:50 --> 00:12:51

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala?

00:12:53 --> 00:12:56

The people of Palestine should be the biggest,

00:12:58 --> 00:12:59

the biggest lesson for us.

00:13:00 --> 00:13:02

And the people of Palestine love the people

00:13:02 --> 00:13:02

of South Africa.

00:13:03 --> 00:13:05

You've put yourselves on the map, every single

00:13:05 --> 00:13:06

one of you.

00:13:07 --> 00:13:08

You've opened up your hearts to them.

00:13:10 --> 00:13:11

We listen to you.

00:13:12 --> 00:13:13

We hear your cries.

00:13:13 --> 00:13:15

And today we're going to do something about

00:13:15 --> 00:13:15

it.

00:13:16 --> 00:13:19

Today we will remember you, O people of

00:13:19 --> 00:13:19

Palestine.

00:13:19 --> 00:13:22

Let me put my differences aside.

00:13:23 --> 00:13:26

I remember the rest of the ummah.

00:13:27 --> 00:13:28

You already know the struggle.

00:13:30 --> 00:13:31

Look at Nelson Mandela.

00:13:32 --> 00:13:34

The man that was prosecuted.

00:13:35 --> 00:13:39

The man that got imprisoned for 27 years.

00:13:39 --> 00:13:41

And the man that came out and became

00:13:41 --> 00:13:41

a president.

00:13:41 --> 00:13:43

So don't ever belittle the vision that you

00:13:43 --> 00:13:44

have in this dunya.

00:13:45 --> 00:13:47

If he'd done it, you could do it.

00:13:48 --> 00:13:50

Be the next Salah al-Din al-Ayub.

00:13:50 --> 00:13:52

Be the next Khalid ibn Walid.

00:13:53 --> 00:13:54

Be the next Umar ibn Khattab.

00:13:55 --> 00:13:57

And rise up to oppression.

00:13:59 --> 00:14:01

And the oppression starts within your homes first.

00:14:03 --> 00:14:04

Don't think you can change the world while

00:14:04 --> 00:14:07

your own household is burning down.

00:14:07 --> 00:14:09

How's your relationship with your wife?

00:14:10 --> 00:14:11

How's your relationship with your husband?

00:14:12 --> 00:14:14

And that's a question for the sisters, yeah?

00:14:16 --> 00:14:18

How's your relationship with your neighbours?

00:14:19 --> 00:14:21

How is your relationship with your kids?

00:14:22 --> 00:14:24

The kids that you neglect because you're putting

00:14:24 --> 00:14:26

anything and anyone before them.

00:14:27 --> 00:14:28

Your kids want you.

00:14:28 --> 00:14:29

They wanna talk to you.

00:14:29 --> 00:14:31

They wanna have that connection.

00:14:32 --> 00:14:33

But my father's too busy with the dunya.

00:14:35 --> 00:14:36

My father's neglected me.

00:14:37 --> 00:14:38

My father's...

00:14:38 --> 00:14:40

I can't remember the last time my father

00:14:40 --> 00:14:41

told me that I love you.

00:14:43 --> 00:14:46

And the kids, with all due respect to

00:14:46 --> 00:14:48

you, you think you guys are innocent?

00:14:51 --> 00:14:53

Your kids are gonna be the future.

00:14:54 --> 00:14:56

You see, let it be known that Islam

00:14:56 --> 00:15:00

is something that is protective.

00:15:01 --> 00:15:01

Protective.

00:15:02 --> 00:15:05

And it's not something that is restricted.

00:15:06 --> 00:15:06

Subhanallah.

00:15:07 --> 00:15:09

You think that Islam rejects you and keeps

00:15:09 --> 00:15:11

you away from certain things.

00:15:11 --> 00:15:12

It's protecting you.

00:15:12 --> 00:15:15

Someone came to the Prophet ﷺ and he

00:15:15 --> 00:15:16

told him, You are Rasulullah.

00:15:17 --> 00:15:19

What do I need to do to get

00:15:19 --> 00:15:19

to Jannah?

00:15:21 --> 00:15:22

You're a shahada.

00:15:22 --> 00:15:24

You believe in La ilaha illallah Muhammad Rasulullah.

00:15:24 --> 00:15:25

What's the next one?

00:15:25 --> 00:15:26

Can someone tell me?

00:15:27 --> 00:15:28

Insallah, your five daily prayers.

00:15:28 --> 00:15:29

What's the next one?

00:15:30 --> 00:15:31

Zakat, Allahu Akbar.

00:15:31 --> 00:15:32

What's the next one?

00:15:33 --> 00:15:34

MashaAllah, the youth know more than the adults.

00:15:34 --> 00:15:35

What's going on?

00:15:36 --> 00:15:37

What's the last one?

00:15:38 --> 00:15:48

He replied, I bear witness that you, O

00:15:48 --> 00:15:51

Prophet, is the final messenger.

00:15:51 --> 00:15:53

Firstly, bear witness that Allah subhanahu wa ta

00:15:53 --> 00:15:55

'ala, there's no one worthier of worship than

00:15:55 --> 00:15:57

him, except Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:15:57 --> 00:15:59

Afterwards, he said, I will only pray my

00:15:59 --> 00:16:01

five daily prayers.

00:16:02 --> 00:16:03

What else did he say?

00:16:03 --> 00:16:05

He said, when it comes to zakat, I

00:16:05 --> 00:16:10

will only pay 2.5%. What about fasting?

00:16:11 --> 00:16:12

He said, I don't need to fast.

00:16:13 --> 00:16:15

I don't need to fast outside of Ramadan

00:16:15 --> 00:16:17

because Ramadan is the only time I will

00:16:17 --> 00:16:17

fast.

00:16:17 --> 00:16:19

I don't need to do Mondays and Thursdays

00:16:19 --> 00:16:20

and so on and so forth.

00:16:20 --> 00:16:22

Hajj, I will only do it if Allah

00:16:22 --> 00:16:23

allows me to do it.

00:16:23 --> 00:16:24

If I'm capable to do it.

00:16:24 --> 00:16:25

If I have the means, if I have

00:16:25 --> 00:16:27

the money, I will do it.

00:16:28 --> 00:16:29

He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that, if

00:16:29 --> 00:16:32

this man sticks by this, he will enter

00:16:32 --> 00:16:32

Jannah.

00:16:32 --> 00:16:35

And this is how simple your religion has

00:16:35 --> 00:16:36

been to you.

00:16:36 --> 00:16:37

Do you know what's one of my favorite

00:16:37 --> 00:16:38

ayahs?

00:16:39 --> 00:16:40

It's when Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says,

00:16:40 --> 00:16:43

today I have completed your deen.

00:16:44 --> 00:16:44

Islam.

00:16:46 --> 00:16:47

How many of us live by this deen?

00:16:48 --> 00:16:50

How many of us prioritize this deen?

00:16:51 --> 00:16:54

How many of us prioritize that we worship

00:16:54 --> 00:16:57

Allah and we don't worship any other idols

00:16:57 --> 00:16:58

that's within us?

00:16:58 --> 00:17:02

The idols that's within us are our arrogance,

00:17:02 --> 00:17:05

our egos, our pride that gets to us.

00:17:07 --> 00:17:09

This brother's driving this car and this brother's

00:17:09 --> 00:17:12

got this house and this auntie's got this

00:17:12 --> 00:17:14

and this auntie's got the Louis Vuitton bag

00:17:14 --> 00:17:16

and we have hasad, we have this evil

00:17:16 --> 00:17:17

eye towards them.

00:17:19 --> 00:17:21

Don't we understand that a true believer is

00:17:21 --> 00:17:23

the one that loves for his brother what

00:17:23 --> 00:17:24

he loves for himself?

00:17:26 --> 00:17:29

There was a dispute between Umar ibn Khattab

00:17:29 --> 00:17:30

and Abu Bakr.

00:17:31 --> 00:17:33

And Abu Bakr made Umar ibn Khattab angry,

00:17:33 --> 00:17:34

upset him.

00:17:35 --> 00:17:38

So Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, the first companion

00:17:38 --> 00:17:40

to work, the first companion to believe in

00:17:40 --> 00:17:44

Rasulullah ﷺ, the first companion that accepted Islam,

00:17:47 --> 00:17:49

he made Umar ibn Khattab upset so he

00:17:49 --> 00:17:51

asked him for forgiveness but Umar ibn Khattab

00:17:51 --> 00:17:52

shut his door on him.

00:17:53 --> 00:17:56

He went to the Prophet ﷺ and he

00:17:56 --> 00:17:57

told him how upset he was.

00:17:58 --> 00:18:01

When Umar walked into a gathering, he ﷺ,

00:18:01 --> 00:18:05

this is Umar I'm talking about, رضي الله

00:18:05 --> 00:18:05

عنه.

00:18:06 --> 00:18:07

This is the man that even Shaytan was

00:18:07 --> 00:18:09

scared of, gave up on.

00:18:10 --> 00:18:12

He would cross the road.

00:18:13 --> 00:18:13

What did he do?

00:18:14 --> 00:18:16

He put Umar in his position and he

00:18:16 --> 00:18:19

told the rest of the companions, how dare

00:18:19 --> 00:18:23

you be some type of way towards Abu

00:18:23 --> 00:18:24

Bakr when he was the first person that

00:18:24 --> 00:18:26

believed in my vision.

00:18:26 --> 00:18:29

He believed in Allah ﷻ, accepted Islam.

00:18:31 --> 00:18:34

And because of the harshness of the Prophet

00:18:34 --> 00:18:36

ﷺ, what happened?

00:18:37 --> 00:18:38

What happened?

00:18:39 --> 00:18:43

Every single companion from that moment onwards never

00:18:43 --> 00:18:46

ever made Abu Bakr al-Siddiq angry, nor

00:18:46 --> 00:18:48

did he ever ever make him upset.

00:18:50 --> 00:18:51

Then we have the youth of today, the

00:18:51 --> 00:18:52

youngsters.

00:18:53 --> 00:18:56

Look at the story of Muhammad Fatih, one

00:18:56 --> 00:18:59

of the greatest commanders, one of the greatest

00:18:59 --> 00:19:01

generals that ever lived.

00:19:02 --> 00:19:03

What happened to him?

00:19:04 --> 00:19:06

At the age of four years old, his

00:19:06 --> 00:19:07

mother took him to the coast and told

00:19:07 --> 00:19:08

him, look over there.

00:19:09 --> 00:19:11

In today's age, it's called Istanbul.

00:19:11 --> 00:19:12

He said, look over there.

00:19:13 --> 00:19:14

One day you're going to conquer that.

00:19:15 --> 00:19:16

What's our parents telling the kids today?

00:19:16 --> 00:19:18

One day you're going to conquer that phone.

00:19:19 --> 00:19:21

Or you're going to watch that Netflix.

00:19:22 --> 00:19:23

You're going to conquer that?

00:19:23 --> 00:19:25

What's our parents teaching us?

00:19:26 --> 00:19:28

At the age of four years old, and

00:19:28 --> 00:19:29

he himself conquered it.

00:19:30 --> 00:19:31

Salah al-Din al-Ayubi.

00:19:32 --> 00:19:35

Salah al-Din al-Kurdi, as some people

00:19:35 --> 00:19:36

recognize him as.

00:19:36 --> 00:19:37

What happened to him?

00:19:38 --> 00:19:39

What happened to him?

00:19:39 --> 00:19:42

This is a man that didn't live a

00:19:42 --> 00:19:44

life of practicing Islam.

00:19:44 --> 00:19:46

A man that wasn't obedient to Allah.

00:19:47 --> 00:19:49

But when he repented, because this is in

00:19:49 --> 00:19:49

his youth.

00:19:49 --> 00:19:51

When he repented to Allah subhanahu wa ta

00:19:51 --> 00:19:54

'ala, Allah made him conquer Jerusalem.

00:19:57 --> 00:19:58

We are all disobedient to Allah.

00:20:00 --> 00:20:01

Ask yourself this.

00:20:01 --> 00:20:03

Do you really worship Allah the way he

00:20:03 --> 00:20:04

deserves to be worshipped?

00:20:04 --> 00:20:05

Because I don't.

00:20:06 --> 00:20:08

Do you really fear Allah the way he

00:20:08 --> 00:20:09

deserves to be feared?

00:20:09 --> 00:20:10

We don't.

00:20:11 --> 00:20:13

But Allah still gives us an opportunity to

00:20:13 --> 00:20:14

wake up every single day.

00:20:15 --> 00:20:17

Another day, another blessing to repent back to

00:20:17 --> 00:20:18

him.

00:20:19 --> 00:20:20

And this is some news to the brothers

00:20:20 --> 00:20:21

that are out there.

00:20:22 --> 00:20:26

The brothers that subhanAllah that are sucking on

00:20:26 --> 00:20:27

light bulbs.

00:20:28 --> 00:20:31

The brothers that are getting high on these

00:20:31 --> 00:20:32

drugs and substances.

00:20:33 --> 00:20:34

Let me make it clear to you brothers.

00:20:36 --> 00:20:36

Fix up.

00:20:37 --> 00:20:39

Fix up for the sake of Allah.

00:20:39 --> 00:20:40

What's it called?

00:20:41 --> 00:20:41

Tak, tak.

00:20:44 --> 00:20:45

You call it tak.

00:20:45 --> 00:20:47

More like this tak is what you need.

00:20:48 --> 00:20:49

But this is the reality.

00:20:50 --> 00:20:53

You need to get high on iman.

00:20:54 --> 00:20:55

You need to raise yourself.

00:20:55 --> 00:20:56

Become a Muslim.

00:20:57 --> 00:20:59

Know your identity as a believer.

00:21:00 --> 00:21:03

And understand that wallahi if you live by

00:21:03 --> 00:21:06

anything other than Islam then Allah would disgrace

00:21:06 --> 00:21:08

you in this dunya and akhira.

00:21:09 --> 00:21:11

And the sisters that once upon a time

00:21:11 --> 00:21:14

or once for the first time maybe they

00:21:14 --> 00:21:14

come to the masjid.

00:21:15 --> 00:21:17

For once they are establishing the hijab.

00:21:17 --> 00:21:20

Don't you dare look down upon her.

00:21:21 --> 00:21:22

Don't you dare.

00:21:23 --> 00:21:25

Today could be the first and last day

00:21:25 --> 00:21:27

she wears the hijab because of your character

00:21:27 --> 00:21:28

and how you treated her.

00:21:29 --> 00:21:31

But if you welcome her and how she

00:21:32 --> 00:21:35

carried herself in her modesty and how us

00:21:35 --> 00:21:35

men.

00:21:36 --> 00:21:37

Where are the men?

00:21:37 --> 00:21:39

We have many males in this ummah but

00:21:39 --> 00:21:40

not enough men.

00:21:41 --> 00:21:41

Rajal.

00:21:42 --> 00:21:45

Where are the people that will revive the

00:21:45 --> 00:21:47

deen of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:21:47 --> 00:21:50

Where are the people that are calling the

00:21:50 --> 00:21:52

people to the Quran and the sunnah.

00:21:52 --> 00:21:55

Because your culture is la ilaha illallah.

00:21:56 --> 00:21:58

And your DNA is the Quran and the

00:21:58 --> 00:21:59

sunnah.

00:21:59 --> 00:22:01

And I don't care what color you are.

00:22:03 --> 00:22:05

This gangsterism of lifestyle and I've seen it.

00:22:06 --> 00:22:07

Some of the boys that came to my

00:22:07 --> 00:22:10

talk yesterday subhanallah they tagged me in and

00:22:10 --> 00:22:12

you know some of these boys I like

00:22:12 --> 00:22:13

to go on their profile to see what's

00:22:13 --> 00:22:13

going on.

00:22:15 --> 00:22:16

Disobedience to Allah.

00:22:16 --> 00:22:18

Their profile is full of music.

00:22:19 --> 00:22:21

But mashallah tabarakallah bro yesterday when I saw

00:22:21 --> 00:22:22

you you had a kufi on, you had

00:22:22 --> 00:22:23

everything on.

00:22:23 --> 00:22:24

Let me make it clear to you my

00:22:24 --> 00:22:24

bro.

00:22:25 --> 00:22:26

Let me make it clear to you my

00:22:26 --> 00:22:26

guy.

00:22:27 --> 00:22:28

Don't be fake ya akhim.

00:22:29 --> 00:22:31

Allah sees you and the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu

00:22:31 --> 00:22:34

alayhi wa sallam said that Allah will forgive

00:22:34 --> 00:22:39

every single sin except the one that is

00:22:39 --> 00:22:41

done publicly and openly.

00:22:42 --> 00:22:44

But you want to smoke akhim and record

00:22:44 --> 00:22:44

yourself?

00:22:45 --> 00:22:47

Every single person that's seen that video or

00:22:47 --> 00:22:50

picture they're going to vouch against you in

00:22:50 --> 00:22:50

your maqyama.

00:22:51 --> 00:22:53

You listen to music even after your death

00:22:53 --> 00:22:56

they're going to remember you because the last

00:22:56 --> 00:22:57

post you ever made was something to do

00:22:57 --> 00:22:59

with music ya akhim.

00:23:00 --> 00:23:01

Diyo diyo.

00:23:02 --> 00:23:02

Huh?

00:23:03 --> 00:23:05

Is this the reality of a Muslim?

00:23:06 --> 00:23:08

Is this what it means to be a

00:23:08 --> 00:23:08

Muslim?

00:23:09 --> 00:23:12

You have forgotten your identity because you put

00:23:12 --> 00:23:12

the dunya first.

00:23:14 --> 00:23:15

There is dunya here.

00:23:17 --> 00:23:19

Oh sorry, there's the deen here and there's

00:23:19 --> 00:23:20

the dunya down here.

00:23:21 --> 00:23:22

And the middle which I call it the

00:23:22 --> 00:23:26

triple D and the middle is da'wah.

00:23:26 --> 00:23:29

And every single Muslim has to give da

00:23:29 --> 00:23:32

'wah because even when one ayah was revealed

00:23:33 --> 00:23:36

one ayah Abu Bakr and the rest of

00:23:36 --> 00:23:39

companions used to call to Allah for that

00:23:39 --> 00:23:39

one ayah.

00:23:40 --> 00:23:43

So do not ever belittle the one ayah

00:23:43 --> 00:23:44

that you give to someone in order for

00:23:44 --> 00:23:46

them to be guided to Allah subhanahu wa

00:23:46 --> 00:23:47

ta'ala.

00:23:47 --> 00:23:48

And I'm going to finish up on this

00:23:48 --> 00:23:49

inshallah wa ta'ala.

00:23:50 --> 00:23:53

One of the tabi'een mentioned this and

00:23:53 --> 00:23:54

this is a beautiful statement.

00:23:54 --> 00:23:59

He said, Allah created the angels with intellect

00:24:01 --> 00:24:03

and Allah also created the animals with what?

00:24:04 --> 00:24:04

Desires.

00:24:05 --> 00:24:07

And He Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala created

00:24:07 --> 00:24:11

the insan, the human beings with both the

00:24:11 --> 00:24:13

intellect and the desires.

00:24:14 --> 00:24:15

If you were to follow your desires that

00:24:15 --> 00:24:18

goes against Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala you're

00:24:18 --> 00:24:20

going to be as low as the dogs.

00:24:21 --> 00:24:24

And if you follow your intellect you're going

00:24:24 --> 00:24:26

to be as high as the mala'ika

00:24:26 --> 00:24:28

if not even higher than them in the

00:24:28 --> 00:24:30

eyes of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:24:32 --> 00:24:35

Oh Muslims, time to wake up man.

00:24:38 --> 00:24:39

Time to smell the coffee in the morning

00:24:39 --> 00:24:40

as they say.

00:24:41 --> 00:24:44

Time for you to adapt this beautiful religion

00:24:44 --> 00:24:46

in every aspect of your life.

00:24:47 --> 00:24:50

From your marriage, to your business, to your

00:24:50 --> 00:24:53

work, to your sleep, to you waking up.

00:24:56 --> 00:24:59

To even raising your kids.

00:25:01 --> 00:25:03

The deen of Allah will move forward with

00:25:03 --> 00:25:04

or without you.

00:25:04 --> 00:25:05

And there's a train coming.

00:25:06 --> 00:25:09

And that train is the train of Allah

00:25:09 --> 00:25:11

subhanahu wa ta'ala where he will revive

00:25:11 --> 00:25:12

the deen of Allah.

00:25:12 --> 00:25:14

And it's going to have a stop.

00:25:15 --> 00:25:17

And that stop is in Cape Town, let's

00:25:17 --> 00:25:18

just say.

00:25:18 --> 00:25:21

Are you ready to be on that train

00:25:21 --> 00:25:22

to revive the deen of Allah?

00:25:23 --> 00:25:24

Are you?

00:25:24 --> 00:25:25

I'm asking you.

00:25:26 --> 00:25:29

Are you ready to revive the deen of

00:25:29 --> 00:25:29

Allah?

00:25:30 --> 00:25:34

Through your actions, through your character, through your

00:25:34 --> 00:25:37

etiquette insha'Allah wa ta'ala for indeed

00:25:37 --> 00:25:40

guidance is only from Allah subhanahu wa ta

00:25:40 --> 00:25:40

'ala.

00:25:41 --> 00:25:43

And not through our actions but let someone

00:25:43 --> 00:25:45

else fall in love with Islam because of

00:25:45 --> 00:25:46

us.

00:25:46 --> 00:25:48

Let them be guided because they fell in

00:25:48 --> 00:25:51

love with how you portray Islam and the

00:25:51 --> 00:25:52

image of Islam.

00:25:58 --> 00:26:01

So my dear respected brothers and sisters, I

00:26:01 --> 00:26:02

give you three things to work on.

00:26:03 --> 00:26:04

Three relationships.

00:26:05 --> 00:26:08

Your first relationship is your relationship with Allah

00:26:08 --> 00:26:10

and with the deen of Allah or whatever

00:26:10 --> 00:26:11

comes with the deen of Allah.

00:26:12 --> 00:26:14

You better yourself in your character.

00:26:15 --> 00:26:16

You better yourself in your behavior.

00:26:17 --> 00:26:20

You better yourself in understanding and seeking the

00:26:20 --> 00:26:21

knowledge insha'Allah wa ta'ala.

00:26:21 --> 00:26:23

That's your first relationship.

00:26:23 --> 00:26:28

Your second relationship is your relationship with your

00:26:28 --> 00:26:28

family.

00:26:29 --> 00:26:31

Your parents, your mother that carried you for

00:26:31 --> 00:26:34

nine months, your father that's outside working day

00:26:34 --> 00:26:36

in day out to make sure that you

00:26:36 --> 00:26:37

have clothes.

00:26:37 --> 00:26:39

Your father that's paying for your tuition for

00:26:39 --> 00:26:41

being in this masjid, learning the deen of

00:26:41 --> 00:26:42

Allah.

00:26:42 --> 00:26:44

Your father that's working hard.

00:26:47 --> 00:26:53

Over seventeen hundred students in this school.

00:26:54 --> 00:26:56

Who's going to be the next Salahuddin Al

00:26:56 --> 00:26:56

-Ayyub?

00:26:58 --> 00:26:59

Who's going to be there?

00:26:59 --> 00:27:01

And this brother is putting his hand up

00:27:01 --> 00:27:02

and I hope you're being sincere my brother.

00:27:03 --> 00:27:04

That's it, that's what we need.

00:27:05 --> 00:27:08

We need people to better themselves and that's

00:27:08 --> 00:27:09

the second relationship is with your parents.

00:27:11 --> 00:27:12

Put your hand up if you still have

00:27:12 --> 00:27:13

your parents around.

00:27:14 --> 00:27:16

Put your hand up if you still have

00:27:16 --> 00:27:17

your mother around.

00:27:19 --> 00:27:21

And I'm jealous of every single one of

00:27:21 --> 00:27:23

you here because you're going back to a

00:27:23 --> 00:27:24

mother and I am not.

00:27:26 --> 00:27:27

At least you could kiss her and hug

00:27:27 --> 00:27:27

her.

00:27:28 --> 00:27:30

At least you could taste her food.

00:27:31 --> 00:27:33

For indeed I am going back to a

00:27:33 --> 00:27:37

memory that only exists in my head.

00:27:38 --> 00:27:39

Create memories.

00:27:39 --> 00:27:43

My youngsters here today, you go home, you

00:27:43 --> 00:27:46

bring a bucket of water, warm water, with

00:27:46 --> 00:27:50

some Himalayan salt, whatever it may be, some

00:27:50 --> 00:27:50

herbs in there.

00:27:51 --> 00:27:53

Start massaging your mother and your father's feet

00:27:54 --> 00:27:56

for every step they took for the struggle

00:27:56 --> 00:27:59

of pleasing you and making sure that you

00:27:59 --> 00:28:03

are okay physically, financially, physically, your health.

00:28:04 --> 00:28:06

Then show your appreciation to them.

00:28:07 --> 00:28:09

That's what you need to start doing every

00:28:09 --> 00:28:10

single week at least.

00:28:11 --> 00:28:12

But this is something that I used to

00:28:12 --> 00:28:12

do.

00:28:13 --> 00:28:15

And every single step that your mother took

00:28:15 --> 00:28:17

while you were pregnant, just understand this, it

00:28:17 --> 00:28:17

wasn't easy.

00:28:19 --> 00:28:23

And your final relationship, Allah subhanahu wa ta

00:28:23 --> 00:28:26

'ala says, save yourselves first and then your

00:28:26 --> 00:28:26

family.

00:28:28 --> 00:28:30

Your relationship with yourself, man.

00:28:31 --> 00:28:32

How are you with yourself?

00:28:33 --> 00:28:36

Find out who you are and become that

00:28:36 --> 00:28:36

person.

00:28:37 --> 00:28:38

Understand what it means.

00:28:38 --> 00:28:41

Be the change you wish to see in

00:28:41 --> 00:28:42

the world.

00:28:43 --> 00:28:43

Be that change.

00:28:44 --> 00:28:45

Stop pointing fingers at people.

00:28:46 --> 00:28:48

Stop pointing fingers at the Muslim leaders and

00:28:48 --> 00:28:51

the scholars and the ulama and the imams

00:28:51 --> 00:28:52

and the students of knowledge.

00:28:52 --> 00:28:53

Stop pointing fingers at them.

00:28:54 --> 00:28:55

Point fingers at yourself.

00:28:55 --> 00:28:57

Because every single time you point a finger

00:28:57 --> 00:28:59

at someone, three other fingers point back at

00:28:59 --> 00:28:59

you.

00:29:01 --> 00:29:03

Your own hand speaks against you.

00:29:05 --> 00:29:06

So start with yourself.

00:29:07 --> 00:29:08

You're the future.

00:29:08 --> 00:29:10

Your kids are the future.

00:29:11 --> 00:29:12

Begin.

00:29:12 --> 00:29:15

Begin with worshipping Allah the way He deserves

00:29:15 --> 00:29:16

to be worshipped.

00:29:17 --> 00:29:19

Begin with respecting your parents.

00:29:21 --> 00:29:23

Stop trying to change the world and change

00:29:23 --> 00:29:26

your ability within your own community.

00:29:28 --> 00:29:30

Your community needs help.

00:29:31 --> 00:29:32

So start with that insha'Allah wa ta

00:29:32 --> 00:29:32

'ala.

00:29:33 --> 00:29:35

I love every single one of you for

00:29:35 --> 00:29:36

the sake of Allah but I want to

00:29:36 --> 00:29:39

ask the three questions.

00:29:39 --> 00:29:41

Are you ready for the three questions, yeah?

00:29:42 --> 00:29:42

You're really sure, yeah?

00:29:43 --> 00:29:43

Alas.

00:29:44 --> 00:29:46

Because we're not here to make sure who's

00:29:46 --> 00:29:47

the loudest or what.

00:29:47 --> 00:29:48

No, but listen to this.

00:29:49 --> 00:29:51

When I ask you this question, I want

00:29:51 --> 00:29:53

you to answer it sincerely from your heart,

00:29:53 --> 00:29:55

not from your mouth, from your heart.

00:29:56 --> 00:29:57

So when you say it, you say it

00:29:57 --> 00:29:58

from in here.

00:30:00 --> 00:30:01

Who is your lord?

00:30:04 --> 00:30:05

I expected louder but I don't know, insha

00:30:05 --> 00:30:05

'Allah.

00:30:06 --> 00:30:07

I'm going to ask again.

00:30:07 --> 00:30:08

Who is your lord?

00:30:11 --> 00:30:12

What is your deen?

00:30:14 --> 00:30:16

And who is your prophet?

00:30:17 --> 00:30:19

Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:30:20 --> 00:30:21

Now I'm going to ask you those three

00:30:21 --> 00:30:23

questions again but do not open your mouth

00:30:23 --> 00:30:24

and keep them sealed.

00:30:26 --> 00:30:27

Who is your lord?

00:30:29 --> 00:30:30

I don't know how brothers are still speaking.

00:30:31 --> 00:30:32

Masha'Allah.

00:30:32 --> 00:30:34

Where is your deen?

00:30:35 --> 00:30:36

And who is your prophet?

00:30:38 --> 00:30:40

If you didn't live by those three things

00:30:40 --> 00:30:42

in this dunya, that's the same way you're

00:30:42 --> 00:30:43

going to reply in the grave.

00:30:45 --> 00:30:47

But if you replied like the first time,

00:30:48 --> 00:30:50

it's because you acted upon it in this

00:30:50 --> 00:30:50

dunya.

00:30:51 --> 00:30:52

So remember that, insha'Allah.

00:30:52 --> 00:30:54

May Allah bless you.

00:30:54 --> 00:30:56

May peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be

00:30:56 --> 00:30:56

upon you.

00:31:32 --> 00:31:35

through his lectures and social media profile.

00:31:35 --> 00:31:37

We look forward to his next visit to

00:31:37 --> 00:31:38

Cape Town, insha'Allah.

00:31:45 --> 00:31:46

There is just a few announcements.

00:31:46 --> 00:31:49

Alhamdulillah, we are truly honored to have tomorrow,

00:31:49 --> 00:31:52

Saturday, the 12th of October, a world-renowned

00:31:52 --> 00:31:54

Qari, Sheikh Abu Bakr al-Shatari.

00:31:55 --> 00:31:57

He will be leading the Maghrib Salah and

00:31:57 --> 00:31:58

there will be a short Qira'ah program

00:31:58 --> 00:31:59

afterwards.

00:31:59 --> 00:32:01

All the Musalis are welcome to attend as

00:32:01 --> 00:32:03

this will be a once-in-a-lifetime

00:32:03 --> 00:32:04

opportunity.

00:32:05 --> 00:32:07

Alhamdulillah, Islamia College once again has the honor

00:32:07 --> 00:32:09

of officiating the Jumu'ah proceedings.

00:32:10 --> 00:32:12

The first Adhan will be rendered by Ahmed

00:32:12 --> 00:32:14

Muqaddam and the second Adhan will be rendered

00:32:14 --> 00:32:17

by Adam Arend, both who are learners of

00:32:17 --> 00:32:18

Islamia College.

00:32:19 --> 00:32:19

Alhamdulillah.

00:32:20 --> 00:32:20

Bismillah.

00:32:23 --> 00:32:24

I just want to say the brother is

00:32:24 --> 00:32:25

doing an amazing job.

00:32:25 --> 00:32:27

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless him.

00:32:27 --> 00:32:30

But before we get the brother to carry

00:32:30 --> 00:32:32

on, because I know I did this yesterday

00:32:32 --> 00:32:33

and I want to do this here in

00:32:33 --> 00:32:35

the masjid, I'm going to say the three

00:32:35 --> 00:32:36

Takbeerat.

00:32:37 --> 00:32:39

Allahumma barak on every single one of you

00:32:39 --> 00:32:40

to get involved.

00:32:40 --> 00:32:43

So Cape Town, Takbeer!

00:32:45 --> 00:32:45

Takbeer!

00:32:47 --> 00:32:48

Takbeer!

00:32:49 --> 00:32:50

Takbeer!

00:32:51 --> 00:32:52

Allahu Akbar!

00:32:52 --> 00:32:53

Habibi.

00:32:57 --> 00:32:59

We would like to ask all the Musalis

00:32:59 --> 00:33:01

to please stand and fold a soft Salah

00:33:01 --> 00:33:03

in front so that no time is wasted

00:33:03 --> 00:33:04

between the Adhan and the Iqamah.

00:33:04 --> 00:33:05

Shukran.

00:33:05 --> 00:33:07

Wassalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu.

00:36:32 --> 00:36:32

Insha'Allah.

00:36:32 --> 00:36:34

Insha'Allah the khutba will be rendered by

00:36:34 --> 00:36:36

our beloved Qari Ziyad Patel.

00:36:36 --> 00:36:36

Insha'Allah.

00:36:36 --> 00:36:38

As well as the Salatul Jumu'ah will

00:36:38 --> 00:36:41

be led by Qari Ziyad Patel.

00:36:41 --> 00:36:44

We can shorten the rows a bit.

00:36:44 --> 00:36:46

Maybe about half of the foot span.

00:36:47 --> 00:36:47

Insha'Allah.

00:36:47 --> 00:36:49

Just to allow the other people to stand

00:36:49 --> 00:36:49

in.

00:36:49 --> 00:36:51

Try to keep your rows straight as possible.

00:36:52 --> 00:36:53

The school is also open.

00:36:53 --> 00:36:55

The school is also open for those who

00:36:55 --> 00:36:55

are standing outside.

00:36:56 --> 00:36:57

The school is open.

00:37:00 --> 00:37:02

The one side in the upstairs is allocated

00:37:02 --> 00:37:03

for ladies only insha'Allah.

00:37:03 --> 00:37:05

So the school is open for the men.

00:37:05 --> 00:37:07

Those who are still standing outside in the

00:37:07 --> 00:37:07

sun.

00:37:08 --> 00:37:08

Jazakumullah.

00:52:59 --> 00:53:06

The Master of the Day of Judgment It

00:53:06 --> 00:53:09

is You we worship and You we ask

00:53:09 --> 00:53:17

for help Guide us to the straight path

00:53:18 --> 00:53:32

The path of those You have blessed The

00:53:43 --> 00:53:44

path of those You have blessed The companions

00:53:44 --> 00:53:48

of the Fire are not equal to those

00:53:48 --> 00:53:56

of Paradise The companions of Paradise are the

00:53:56 --> 00:54:06

winners If We had sent down

00:54:06 --> 00:54:09

this Qur'an upon a mountain, you would

00:54:09 --> 00:54:18

have seen it humbly, trembling in fear of

00:54:18 --> 00:54:24

Allah If We had sent down this Qur

00:54:24 --> 00:54:27

'an upon a mountain, you would have seen

00:54:27 --> 00:54:37

it humbly, trembling in fear of Allah And

00:54:37 --> 00:54:41

these are the examples We present to the

00:54:41 --> 00:54:50

people, perhaps they will give thought He

00:54:50 --> 00:54:58

is Allah, there is no god but He,

00:55:01 --> 00:55:11

the witness, the Merciful, the Compassionate He

00:55:11 --> 00:55:21

00:55:21 --> 00:55:27

but He, the King, the Holy, the Peaceful,

00:55:27 --> 00:55:32

the Believer, the Righteous, the Mighty, the Compelling,

00:55:32 --> 00:55:37

the Exalted in Might Exalted is Allah

00:55:37 --> 00:55:45

00:55:45 --> 00:55:52

Him He is Allah, the Creator, the Inventor,

00:55:52 --> 00:55:59

the Bestower, to Whom belong the Most Beautiful

00:57:42 --> 00:57:45

whom You have bestowed Your Grace, those who

00:57:45 --> 00:57:49

have not incurred Your Wrath, and those who

00:57:49 --> 00:58:05

have not gone astray Is

00:58:05 --> 00:58:12

there not a Day when it is created?

00:58:14 --> 00:58:19

And to the heaven how it is raised?

00:58:20 --> 00:58:23

And to the mountains how it is set?

00:58:24 --> 00:58:27

And to the earth how it is spread?

00:58:28 --> 00:58:38

So remind, you are only a reminder

00:58:38 --> 00:58:44

You have no control over them except those

00:58:44 --> 00:58:49

who turn away and disbelieve So Allah will

00:58:49 --> 00:58:55

punish them with the greatest punishment Indeed, to

00:58:55 --> 00:59:05

Us is their return Then upon Us is

bless us with what you have given And

01:01:26 --> 01:01:28

protect us and keep away from us, out

01:01:28 --> 01:01:31

of your mercy, the evil of what you

01:01:31 --> 01:01:34

have done For indeed, you do justice, and

01:01:34 --> 01:01:40

it is not justified against you Indeed, Allah

01:01:40 --> 01:01:43

does not humiliate those who turn away And

01:01:43 --> 01:01:47

He does not honor those who turn away

01:01:48 --> 01:01:52

Exalted are You, our Lord, and Exalted are
