Ebrahim Bham – Human Rights, Racism And The Christchurch Bombings

			Alhamdulillah
		

			Alhamdulillah hahaha what's Ramallah Milan Viva La Mulana v una
		

			de la vida kitabi will actually aka Bhattacharya D and
		

			E in Elmina
		

			for Australia obeying
		

			what Allah Allah Allah Ramune sakalava nazeem
		

			respected elders and brothers.
		

			Obviously today there has been
		

			many factors that are calling for our attention to speak about.
		

			The first would be the tragic killing of our Muslim brothers and sisters in another part of the
world, in Christchurch in New Zealand.
		

			And may Allah subhanahu wa taala elevate the status of those who have become martyred. Allah
subhanho wa Taala make it easy for the families and that Allah elevate the status. Allah subhanho wa
Taala would deal with those who have done this deed and we have done this act appropriately. We also
have in our country. And I thought I will relate that to this coming week, Human Rights Day.
		

			And given the fact that it is humans right Rights Day, there are many organizations in our country,
which have coincided this human rights week with the anti racism message, that this is anti racism
week. So I thought that we will speak about the importance of human rights in Islam. Normally, when
today when we look at human rights, we look at it from a political angle. And we code that in 10th
December 1948, the United Nations General Assembly passed the Human Rights charter, which was
adopted and opposed. We are we are looking beyond human rights from a political field political
aspect, because human rights in a political aspects has led to many wars more wars than ever before,
		

			unfortunately. And it has created a situation of the powerful marginalizing those who are not
powerful and has created a hegemony of the powerful states over the week. But that's a different
matter a different subject for a different day. Here we want to talk about what Islam had said about
the rights of human beings. Islam has given the rights of human beings as greater importance is the
right of Allah subhanho wa Taala
		

			or Allah tala name,
		

			Islam
		

			warmia da Jo kukula k barabara shyed akeley has said
		

			the rights of human being is equal or even in a way in one way, even more important than the rights
of Allah subhanho wa Taala. In what way when we violate the rights of Allah, then it is we are
dealing with Allah subhana wa tada and Allah subhanho wa Taala. For Rahim, Allah tala is very
forgiving, very merciful. So if you violate the rights of Allah, you are dealing with Allah subhanho
wa Taala. But Allah subhanho wa Taala is also declared and proclaimed, if you violate the rights of
human being, Allah won't forgive you until the person whose rights whose rights you have violated,
he doesn't forgive you.
		

			And human being is not so forgiving.
		

			human being is not so forgiving. Allah is more forgiving than what human human beings and therefore
modern autonomy actually used to say one of our great scholars overall in San kissy komaneka human
beings very seldom does He forgive anyone and even if you forgive someone, he keeps a register of it
in his memory one day he will remind you, you you did this wrong to me and I forgive you
		

			Allah tala when he forgives Allah tala doesn't keep any type of memory with regard to it Allah wipes
away everything at a womanism common law or am I right in that particular way to violate the rights
of human beings is even perhaps more serious than violating the rights of Allah because Allah tala
for him
		

			In our in our Sharia, we know that human human rights and fulfilling the rights of human is an
important part of Deen. You know one day a person came to a great scholar and said Son and Buddha,
Locke and Nakata worship Allah as if you are seeing Allah otherwise emotionalizing you I got this
particular feeling in salad, thinking that the star would praise Him that was that said What did he
say? He said, this is not enough. Bring bring the state of a sun Allah is watching you. And
otherwise you are watching Allah subhanho wa Taala bring that particular state, in every
relationship with every human being you have in a relationship with every human being. That is also
		

			part of the this is also part of deal that is why our beloved Kareem sallallahu alayhi wa sallam one
day say Allah Mira can be upset at me lately.
		

			Oh people should I not tell you a deed which is even more greater, even more greater, more in reward
than performing salah and keeping Rosa Sahaba said balaia rasulillah della Sera Sera la novia Karim
saw some said Alicia who that'll be lbn to bring human beings together to bring human beings
together is even more rewarding than performing salah and giving charity. And then the via cream
sauce. I'm sad because when you fight, he'll harika it shaves and I don't say it shaves off your
hair. It shaves off your deen and that is why this is such an important thing that the people who do
good in this regard and I will reward them and the people who do wrong in this regard. Allah
		

			subhanho wa Taala gives great amount of punishment and warnings of punishment with regard to it.
Anyone who does good in terms of human action, human interaction fulfilling the rights of human
doing good to human beings, or law if you own a lab, McConnell adonia fee, Allah will help you as
long as you are helping other people
		

			kooskia daggy cuckoo kalibata daggy sahab who's Cuckoo Cuckoo, about chiappa dykema Sabha or na da
May I miss samlede that is why this is what nebia Kareem Solomon said. If you do good to human being
if you help them Allah subhanho wa Taala will help you. And then nebia krimson Allahu Allah was
Allah. And Allah subhanho wa Taala warns with regard to not fulfilling the rights of human being
right and loving you can
		

			have you seen those who deny religion? Have you seen those who deny religion for radicality only at
one
		

			time in miskeen. Now you and I some talking generally of the rights of human beings, you and I will
say those people who deny religion who don't make rebar that those people who deny religion, perhaps
who do not give us but what is Allah tala says those who repelled the orphans and who do not
encourage the feeding of the poor to do with human rights is one very interesting incident. I read
about one very famous Muslim ruler who ruled over Persia, right. And he was very well known for his
justice. One day he soldiers, his army, they took away the cow of a woman. For them, it was just an
ordinary animal, we took a cow and they made, you know, they made a bride with it, they made they
		

			made matcha tea, their entertainment was it. But for her, it was only his sole means of income.
Someone told her that you know that this ruler is a very important and he's a very just ruler, go
and meet with him Go and tell him what his army had done. Maybe he will come to you assistance. So
someone told her that the king is going to pass one road in which there is a bridge. So she stood on
that bridge. When she stood on that bridge, the king came and she told the king, this is what your
army did to me yesterday, they took my they took my animal, they violated my rights, they took in
yourself my property, they you set my wealth. Either you sought me out on this bridge, or otherwise,
		

			I'll take you and take account from you on that bridge.
		

			Either you fulfill my rights here. Otherwise, I'll get you on pulsera and that's a reality. If you
don't fulfill the rights and you violate the rights of people here in this world, Allah subhanho wa
Taala will take account from you on the day of
		

			and then furthermore, our alumni that this is an important point, that the blemishes in this regard
the blemishes and the shortcomings in regard to about the rights of human need.
		

			cannot be made up with the budget.
		

			But the blemishes of the budget can be made up by doing good to human beings that let me explain to
you this and let me give you an example.
		

			of this, the via Karim shala. While he was still in one day was told that a woman in the
neighborhood, she is very pious. But she is at odds with everyone in the neighborhood. She fights
with everyone in the neighborhood.
		

			Right now via cream sauce them said, if this is a situation and she remains in there, she will go to
jahannam.
		

			She's making the budget, but she is not fulfilling the rights of human beings.
		

			And then they'll be occurring. So Sarah was asked about another woman. And that particular woman, it
was said that she makes her fries, but she doesn't make notes about it. But she is good with
everyone in the neighborhood. Now via creme de la de wa sallam said, if this is a situation, and she
remains on that she will go to Janet, what am I right, that blemishes and shortcomings in a bar that
can be made up by being kind to human beings
		

			can be made, but the blemishes in fulfilling the rights of others cannot be made up with extra
budget. And the settled I'm saying the blemishes of the body it can be made up by being kind to
human beings. But the other way around, it is not like that. That is why one of our great scholars
		

			who say if a person severs ties, causes difficulties to others, violates human rights behave
arrogantly to people, no matter how much he's invited, he will not enter Jannah
		

			No matter how much is abandoned, he will not enter into gender. This is how Islam has told us
		

			with regard to the rights of human beings might be respected by others, unfortunately, today, we
don't care. And when we talk about human rights, I'm talking about the rights of our family. I'm
talking the rights about our community. I'm talking about the rights of our Muslim brothers. I'm
even talking about the aspect of rights of people who are beyond our faith. Islam has given us such
great, you know, emphasis with regard to human beings across the spectrum across the ethnic
barriers, Islam has told us fulfill the rights of each and every one of them.
		

			When I will be able to be a criminal law, Salam on one occasion, a janaza was going past.
		

			A janessa was going past in Libya, Karim sauce lamb got up and mentioned is made in the rewires in
other words to Sahaba. Also in Syria, they did the same thing. And when they were asked, they
referred to the via Karim saw some action. Someone said jasola it is the janessa and it is Amelia
and it is a corpse of someone who is not a Muslim via cream sauce and said I know it's not a Muslim.
But isn't it a human being? Isn't it a human being? It is the dignity of a human being that I am
showing respect to Allah in the Holy Quran says Allah Quran napanee Adam, we have granted respect
and dignity to every child of Adam alayhis salam, every child of Fatima salat wa salam, He is worthy
		

			of respect because of this ayat.
		

			And then this particular who Coco a bat and rights of human being must come across, even with regard
to people across the faith spectrum. And even with regard to people who are in different color,
color, the color barriers. Unfortunately, we find today that that particular religion, and I think
they say this with great hurt, that that religion which came to take a stance against racial
discrimination. Before it was be trendy, to talk against racial discrimination, discrimination, and
talk about racial equality. It was our beloved maybe a cream sauce alum in the famous law of
attraction widow who said law
		

			monogamy in our opinion, there is no superiority of the Arab over the non Arab or the non Arab over
the Arab or the white over the black or the bright black over the white there is no superiority
except on the basis of taqwa and piety and conduct. Islam came to eradicate racial discrimination.
And not only did he do so by theory, nebia cream sauce lamb did it by practice, maybe a cream sauce
and I'm sure people in a time when they were such great racial prejudice. When people look down upon
people of color, maybe a cream sauce lamb don't
		

			go up on the Kaaba and going give the call of Azzam when the Arabs of that time So believe it or
not, and have been given that honor. Many of them who are not Muslims, they said if only if only we
would not have left to see this day. And when maybe a cream sauce lamb came to know that this was
the what was people were saying maybe a cream sauce them came down and gave a special a special
sermon to tell people yeah, you are nice enough Allah.
		

			Allah has created you into different tribes into different races for the sake of identification and
not for the sake of pride in regard yourself as superior to another person, on the basis of your
ethnicity on the basis of your tribe, on the basis of the color of your skin. And that religion
which has come to eradicate
		

			And not only eradicate nebia, cream sauce from brought people from different backgrounds together in
one single unit in one single oma, today, if people have that religion, and that religion has to be
accused of racial discrimination, it is a tragedy upon the oma. And sometimes it could be that is
exaggeration. But if the people of this religion with made such a great stance against racial
discrimination, that that particular religion must be accused of people or the adherence of that
religion must be called out for racial discrimination. It is a great tragedy, and not only a great
tragedy, it is injustice that we have done to our religion.
		

			So this is the aspect with regard to the the point of what we have, we believe with regard to his
human rights. Now, of course, we know let us come back to the situation with regard to what has
happened in New Zealand this morning. Again, it is very tragic, we have made mention of it in the
beginning of the talk, but let us look at about one or two things, one of the things that we can
speak about in this whole particular aspect, the one point that is such a great importance is we see
throughout the world, there is this rise of right wing rhetoric.
		

			And it's not only in New Zealand, it's in different parts of the world. We find people who have you
know, raise the bar, or raise the rhetoric, raise their emotional slogans, and they have raised this
throughout the world, were against immigrants, against Muslims, against people of color against
different people of different backgrounds. And then you find that this particular rhetoric has been
gaining ground. Now, it is the result of this rhetoric that has become part and parcel where
individual now feels because of the rhetoric that he needs to take some action or he needs to do
something. And it is motivated by this rhetoric. And it is not surprising that when I read this
		

			morning, that when the person who had written a whole particular type of motivation of what he was
doing, he said in that particular motivation, and it is revealing to see what he said in that
motivation, what was the motivation, he said, that I regard Trump as my hero, and I, I keep with
him, because he has reestablished white supremacy and white identity.
		

			Now, this is the type of you know, right wing rhetoric. And of course, Today, many times Muslims
have been stereotyped throughout the world of being terrorists. But the stats have revealed that the
greatest amount of terrorist acts that are committed today in the world is because of right wing
right wing elements, but because they have a certain degree of superiority that they feel, or they
have a certain degree of influence, it is what brought to the fore of this is a reality that we are
facing with, and how do we deal with it is something that we as an oma need to deal with it, I
firmly believe, and this is my belief, which I've always mentioned format, that we in our country,
		

			we have, we have that particular aspect of the Islamophobia is something that we have addressed
previously and we will address it again, it is an Islamophobic attack. It is the Islamophobic type
of mindset and mentality that has caused what is happening today. And while they might be an
elements of the media, that are afraid to call it so it is worse than a terrorist act. It is a
terrorist act which has been done in a place of safety, a place of sanctuary, a place of worship,
where normally every sane, intelligent human being will show respect to say the lie in the Holy
Quran, woman de la Cana Amina, whoever comes into a place of worship, whoever comes into the Matura
		

			haram and by extension at the masjid, he would be safe, a place of worship, worship is a place of
safety. But in that particular place today, this has been carried out. And while the media or
certain sections of the media would be hesitant to call it out, it is an act of terrorism.
		

			Another aspect is many times you and I we feel that we must go and do what the other people have
done. We never believed in that we don't believe to do with others. What they have done to us is a
very interesting incident that has been made mentioned about Asomugha karate ultra No, one day, a
General of the Army, the general of the Muslim army, after defeating, you know, the non Muslims in a
particular battle. He is he took off the head of the opposing gender. And he sent it to Abu Bakar,
viola Toronto. So in Abu Bakar, Yamato, got it and he said that this is the head of the general of
the opposing army. So someone asked him, he said, Why did you do this? Why did you send me the head
		

			of the general of the opposing army? He said that in that particular region where we were fighting,
when they if they were to defeat us, they would have done the same. They would have cut off the head
of the Muslim general and said
		

			To the leader. So I have also done in the similar thing. Do you know what over Korea LaDonna
replied? He said, since when must we make them leaders in our actions? Don't we have the son of
Nivea cream sauce for them to lead us? Maybe a cream sauce them didn't teach us this. Nivea cream
sauce them didn't teach us to kill civilians in war, maybe a cream sauce and didn't teach us to kill
non combatants. Maybe a cream sauce lamb forbade the mutilation of bodies. Although it was the norm
at the time in war, maybe a cream salesman forbade the mutilation of bodies given in war. So he
said, for example, maybe a cream sauce liftgate we don't need to take them as an example. If they do
		

			that we will not do that we will do what our beloved maybe a Korean Allahu alayhi wa sallam taught
us and maybe a cream sauce from the Quran has taught us to show respect to human beings and to show
respect to places of worship. Another very important point that I thought I will highlight in and
this is something that you just have to keep in mind. See, many people go to these countries because
the places where they are staying are not safe.
		

			We all know that. So people have gone to New Zealand people have gone to Australia, people go to
other countries, because many of them come from places like Syria, which are not safe. And people
they go to places where the civil strife things are not safe. So they say let us go to a place of
safety. So they go to New Zealand, right? We all see this and something for us to start thinking
about. Now there when you go on for the sake of safety and security. There also you have not been
able to achieve safety and security.
		

			So safety and security comes from Almighty Allah subhanho wa Taala. The point I'm making is low bar
jacker producer, Mr. Malik, Malik machaca, among chata
		

			Recep bacteria here, Captain he can apply his job.
		

			So, the point is, you are going to another place for us to achieve safety and security. And that is
not guaranteed. And we've got in that situation it is not guaranteed, then what we need to do is
where we are staying make that a place of safety. And how do you make that a place of safety make it
a place of safety by playing your role to make the community and society you are living in
harmonious and a place of society play your own. It is difficult it is increasingly difficult. In
our country. We know there is corruption there is crime someone made mentioned he said the poor go
to Sasa the rich go to kasasa
		

			we all know that. But the only way what we need to be able to play our own, you know, make your own
places where you are living a place of safety. Play your role in making the place where and don't
while there will be religious differences with people of other faiths. And in that we will not
compromise we will not be apologetic with regard to our faith and with regard to our teachings. But
in terms of common issues, we must reach out and we must be we must we must cooperate with people to
bring about things that are better for the community and the society that is the responsibility of
every Muslim that is in this country. And lastly I would say one thing you know is sometimes very
		

			amazing we sometimes take for granted our massages
		

			I sometimes many times people tell me that as you come in for Juma go puja karaoke bar Joker a
		

			low bar say Majid many acid
		

			or this
		

			or what happened Majid may look shaky Jarrah. You can sometimes come into the masjid on time you
take your time and you sitting in your you know, sometimes gossiping and catching up with the with
the news of the of the week. In other places, these people who went to the masjid, they have been
made Shaheed in the masjid
		

			value the masjid My dear respected brothers value our value our symbols. Let us take lessons with
regard to all of these things which I've just heard some of which I put forward to you may Allah
subhanho wa Taala grant the safety and security wherever we are. Hello my Nana circle alpha one
alpha one alpha today McAfee Dini, Daniela Sara Lee Jamil mininova, Minato Muslim in our Muslim and
Allah make it easy for those people. What great difficulties, you know the families must be facing.
I just saw a message that came this now just before I was coming. There was an appeal made for
Muslims in the region to come to this place Christchurch, because the current marriage with regard
		

			to
		

			the current marriage with regard to providing relief and atella granting relief, Allah tala grant
them a better reward with regard to what has happened and will actually make it easy for all of us
who have settled down and
