			salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah. This is your sister Felicia Bennett from developing diamonds coming
to you on behalf of Academy alive? As believers we want to be those who obey and fear Allah subhanaw
taala. Right. Well, that's not something that's going to happen on its own. It needs fuel. It needs
motivation. It needs to be based on knowledge. And Allah Spano tala says in the Quran in surah,
fattier in Sha, Allah heminger A baddie hill or lemma. It is only those who have knowledge amongst
his slaves that fear alone. We can't have true fear or reverence consciousness of Allah Spano data,
unless we have knowledge and in particular knowledge of Him and who we use knowledge of the rules
		
00:00:46 --> 00:01:30
			and regulations for life as a Muslim knowledge of the Quran and the Sunnah. We need to be on a path
of pursuing and seeking gaining implementing knowledge in order for us to be able to become Muslims,
who truly consistently fear and obey Allah subhanaw taala azuri May Allah be pleased with him said
oh my Allah have mercy on him said no act of worship is comparable to knowledge. So seeking
knowledge gaining knowledge is an act of worship in and of itself. So while seeking knowledge might
be teaching you how to worship Allah subhanaw taala that actual act of seeking knowledge is also a
means of worshiping Him and inshallah your faith, your consciousness, your fear, your obedience of
		
00:01:30 --> 00:02:10
			Allah subhanaw taala will increase through your gaining of that knowledge, gaining knowledge, his
true goodness and success in life as the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, When Allah wishes
good for a person, it gives him sound understanding of the religion. If you are blessed to be given
good understanding of the Islamic teachings, good understanding of the Sharia, the Islamic laws,
rules regulations, then inshallah you have been blessed by Allah subhanaw taala. So we should want
to be people who are blessed, we should want to be people who are seeking knowledge and constantly
striving to improve in our understanding of our religion. So get moving, take action and start
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			seeking knowledge today.
