			Selam Aleykum Rahmatullahi wa barakato brothers and sisters, welcome back to the next episode of the
triple D series. Okay, so today we have the first part of the four part series that we're going to
be discussing. And we're talking about an untested, who is unmarked acid. Well unmarked acid is the
preventer or the promoter, one that prevents evils and promotes goodness, how can we tie this in, in
the automotive field? Let's say the mechanic Or even better, since you don't want to be called
grease monkeys will call ourselves technicians since we live in a technologically advanced society.
Okay, so the first part that we are going to discuss are the conditions for this technician, the
		
00:00:48 --> 00:01:31
			conditions for somebody who wants to do Darrow who wants to do Hesburgh wants to spread good and
forbid evil. So the first condition is that you must be mature, and you must be seen. The second
thing is a Muslim, you need to be a Muslim, why do you need to be Muslim while they're a non Muslim
technicians out there, but as we discussed previously, in order to benefit from the rewards of your
good actions, you need to be a Muslim, because in the Hereafter, if you're not a Muslim, all the
good actions that you do, if you're not a believer in a loss pattern with Allah, then these actions
will be useless on the Day of Judgment. And so the next point, the third point is having permission.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:37
			Now, when we talk about hisbah, having permission in Muslim countries is a really big issue.
		
00:01:38 --> 00:02:14
			For some people, just walking the streets and telling others what to do, may not be such a great
thing to do. But if you associate yourselves with the certain organizations that are out there, for
example, in certain Muslim countries, we have organizations that encourage people to do good.
Associate yourselves with those organizations, that's fine. Having permission as a technician, why
would you bring your car to somebody who doesn't have the right qualifications to fix your car, for
example, you bring your car to a corner store garage, this guy doesn't have papers, or doesn't even
have the proper qualifications to be a mechanic, so he doesn't even know what he's doing with your
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:35
			car. The next point, the fourth point is to have good character. You know, when you're trying to
sell somebody, your services, they come to garage, you welcome them, you give them a cup of tea,
give him some coffee, or something like that. You want to treat them good. So having good character
and data is very important. When you meet somebody, you don't want to come up to him and be like,
		
00:02:37 --> 00:03:12
			what are you doing? This is wrong? No, you want to greet them with a nice, you know, smile on your
face, and come up to them nicely. Ask them how their day is going, just have good character in
general, that will buy over their hearts and shout Allahu taala. The fifth point is knowledge. You
don't want to go out there and talk to people about doing good without having knowledge, they're
going to look at you and say, Why are you coming to me, you don't know anything in the first place.
Similarly, if you bring your car to somebody to be repaired, and they don't have knowledge of your
vehicle, they're gonna say, well, shouldn't there be six wheels on this car because then there's
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:52
			better stability on the road. They don't know anything about cars. Alright. And the last point that
we're going to mention is capability, capable of getting down capable of speaking to others,
building this courage building this self esteem that you can go out there and talk to people greet
them nicely, and just, you know, spread goodness amongst the Ummah, amongst other people in society
being capable as a mechanic, well, you need to be capable, you need to have the right tools, you
need to be capable to find the problem, you need to be able to diagnose the problem. So all of these
conditions need to be found in the market. So we move on to the second part, which is the
		
00:03:52 --> 00:04:27
			etiquettes. Okay, so we're going to be talking about the etiquettes of being a diary or being
tested. Now we're not going to mention all of them, but a few etiquettes that we're going to discuss
are, for example, sincerity, sincerity in what you're doing, having the right intention, being
sincere to Allah subhanho wa Taala whatever you do, you do it for the sake of Allah subhanho wa
Taala. And you don't do it to get any other benefits out of it. The second etiquette is patience,
having patience with people, you know, you're gonna see a lot of strange things out there, you're
gonna be walking around, you'll see Muslims doing things that they're not supposed to be doing.
		
00:04:27 --> 00:05:00
			You'll see non Muslims were a friend of your friends of yours, for example, and you want to help
them but you just can't because you don't have the patience to deal with the nonsense that they're
doing. So building this patience inside of you, being able to understand people and the third
condition, understanding, understanding the people, having a soft heart, being open minded, and you
know, having the capability of opening one's heart to Allah subhanho wa Taala understand them,
listen to them, talk to them, and
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:11
			Just one good for them in sha Allah Allah to Allah, you will be from the greatest of those who
spread this Deen in sha Allah tada which has come along hydroset mRNA Kumara La Habra cattle
