Allah,
Allah,
expected Allah and my beloved mothers and fathers and beloved
sisters and brothers and honorable youth and children, I greet you
with the Universal greeting of love and peace and mercy.
Assalamu. Alaikum. Raquel,
it is also, indeed a great honor and a privilege for me to be here,
Alhamdulillah. And as Mawlana said, it's a
It was long overdue, but Alhamdulillah, it's a great honor
and a privilege for me to be here. It's a great honor and a privilege
for all of us to be in the Jummah.
Just to give an idea of how great the Juma is in the eyes of Allah
subhana wa taala, our beloved Nabi Muhammad, says in the long Hadith
while jumuatu il Jumuah,
the fact that you are in this Jumaa
and you were in the Jumaa last week, all minor sins that happened
between last week and this week, he's been has been forgiven by
Allah, subhanho wa Taala
Alhamdulillah. We thank Allah also for granting us the greatest honor
and privilege, and that is to be part of the ummah of Sayyidina,
Muhammad, illallah, Wanda wala sharikala, and we pay testimony
that no one has got the right to be worshiped except Allah alone.
And we bear witness and testimony that our beloved Nabi Muhammad,
sallAllahu, Sallam is the final and the greatest messenger Allah,
subhana wa Taala al qawil, the one that said Ola na Sibi, yam al
qiyama, akhtarum, Alaya salatan, the people nearest to me on the
day of qiyama, and the people first in line to receive the shafa
afraso Allah Salah Swami ordered to enter the Jannah, are those
Muslim men who were the most consistent in putting Salawat on
the greatest human being that ever came to this world, our beloved
Nabi, Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam. So what must mean? Allow
me to say
that maybe the Ummah hasn't yet realized the value of putting
salah. Abbi Mohammed, just to give you another Hadith, Rasulullah
says, mansala Alaya Salatin,
Min umati, mukhili San bin kalbihi, any person of my Ummah
that puts only one Salah on me, but just by saying, for example,
Allah masala, Allah Sayyidina, Muhammad mulisan, Min Kal Bihi,
sincerely from his heart, this hadith teaches us. How do we put
salawat and Rasulullah sallallahu, sallam? Not by the way, mukhili
San min kalbi, sincerely from the heart, with feeling. Sallallahu
Alaihi ashram, Allah will put in Salah word from Allah on you.
Wa, Rafa. Wa Rafa. Ubi Ashra da Rajat, and Allah will raise you
Tim da Rajat,
wakatabala, Abu Asmaa Hasan. And Allah will write down for you as
if you've done 10 good deeds. Wa Maha Anu, Bihar, Asha Rasi and
Allah will wipe out 10 of your sins. Means, just to get the real
value of this hadith, please don't confine yourself to once, to one
Salah if, for example, you make time 10 minutes, 15 minutes of
your 24 hours every day to put 100 Salawat on Rasulullah. It means
that Allah will put 1000 Salawat on you every day. And Allah will
raise you 1000 darajat. And Allah, right, will write down for you as
if you've done 1000 good deeds, and Allah will wipe out 1000 of
your sins.
So the first, the first lesson or reminder that I want to give my
honorable brothers and sisters today is, please, from today
onwards, make sure that you put at least 100 salawat and Rasulullah
Sallam every day inshaAllah,
Allah Salim, abarik ala Han Nabi il Kareem,
we ask Allah subhana wa Taala in this hour of Jumaa to put Salawat
in Salaam in barakah and our beloved Nabi Muhammad, sallAllahu,
Sallam wa Allah Salim and all his brothers of the ambiya and mur
Salin and all their families and friends, wah sal Allahu, mahita
Muslimeen. And likewise, we ask Allah, in this Holy Hour of Jum to
grant me and you and all the Muslim in the most beautiful
ending of this world. And may Allah raise us the Day of Qiyamah
under the banner of our beloved Nabih.
Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam,
amaba, ibad, Allah, after that, O honorable and beloved slaves of
Allah, Itta, Kulla, Mustafa, atom, fear Allah, subhana, wa taala, as
much as possible. Wa alter all and be obedient to Allah. Fama as Adam
in Alta Atum, for indeed in the whole world, no one is more
happier and no one is more successful than the one that is
obedient to Allah and obedient to our beloved NaVi Muhammad,
sallAllahu, wasallam wa Allah Taala yaku mi tanzini, and know
well that ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala says in the Holy Quran in Surah to
Toba Aya number 38 the Adamos Rajim
ya
background of this ayah is our beloved Nabi Ali said to some call
this ahava, to go out for the battle of Tabuk, and few of them,
three or four of them for
simple reasons, because of the heat, because some of them were
expecting the dates, you know,
to be ripen, and so they delayed. They delayed to go with
Rasulullah. Allah subhana wa Taala is reprimanding them in this way.
Yaw labina amanu, oh, you believe? Malakum, what is wrong with you?
Either clean Allah, come on. Fi rufi, sabilah, if the kal tumilla,
earth, when it is said unto you, go in the path of Allah.
You cling on to this world. You hold on to this world. Aradhi,
tumble hayati, dunya, Mila, do you prefer the life of this world?
Allah is asking the question, do you prefer the life of this world
to the life of the akhirah, fam hayati, dunya,
Phil Earth, don't you know? Don't you believe? Don't you realize
that the pleasure of this worldly life is but little in comparison
to the comfort and the praises of the akhira,
our beloved Nabi Muhammad Ali said to Islam, says in Hadith Malam
yattam Yamir al muslimin, falaisa minum,
those who are not concerned about the affairs of the Muslim in
falaisa, minhum, those who don't care for Muslims, you are not part
of this ummah. Can you imagine Rasulullah disown you from being a
part of this ummah because you're not concerned
about
others? Beloved
ones, I advise you and me, first of all, to fear Allah subhana wa
Taala and to be obedient to Allah subhana wa taala. What would that
give? Kum
be Anna hail um, Mata al Audi, Mata tu vaji, Hu ha Han Taha,
Hadiya, avima Wasa, but your beloved ones. I also want to
remind you that this great ummah of Sayyidina, muhammadin,
sallAllahu, sallam, is presently, currently, of facing this ummah
many, many challenges and many difficult challenges
internationally and locally. Internationally in Syria, in
Palestine, in Afghanistan, and so many places in Egypt
and locally,
our young people,
every almost every second young man or young woman are involved in
drugs.
I'll be our young people don't come to the masjid. Illa, Mahim,
Allah, except for a few
and so many, so many other problems.
Wa Ida, Kanal, Amr qadali, dalik, Tamada unto Elon. So if that is a
situation of this great Ummah, what are we going to do?
We had a visitor from Turkey. From Turkey, a woman.
Her name is Na Alan. Remember this name
before I come to the point, Sister Na Alan. She was under Mavi
Marmara, the Freedom Flotilla that went from Turkey to the Gaza.
I heard for the first time. Maybe it slipped me, but I heard for the
first time some of the.
Relations, when the Israelis interrogated them in so called
Israel, they asked
Who were these muscle man, men with white tops and white scarves.
Sister Na Allah said, the Arabs that were with they have put them
in the bottom of the of the Freedom Flotilla not to expose him
to the countries. They asked Who were those muscle men? And
there's no other answer. It was Malaika that Allah send them at
Muslim. The point I want to come is Sister Na. Allah says, I've got
one daughter. She's seven years old,
but I am worried
what Allah is going to ask me the day of qiyama, you're only worried
about your daughter. What did you do for the children of the world,
for those 1000s and 1000 children that no food, that had no shelter,
what did you do for them? This is the sister nahalah and saying to
us, this is our understanding of what this ummah is all about.
That's why Jamaat Muslim. I want to remind you of the following
Hadith, and
this is a very important Hadith,
Rasulullah says, Let azul kadama, abdinhaus, Allah and Arba,
you won't be able to move your feet on the Day of Qiyamah, when
you can stand and appear in front of Allah, unless you can to
respond to four questions. You are going to be asked me, and you are
going to be asked four questions. The first one an umbrihi, mafna,
your lifespan, your time, what did you do with your life in this
world?
What was your contribution?
The second question,
and this, mihi, what did you do with your body? What did you do
with this body that Allah has given you?
The third question, Anna elmihi Your knowledge. What did you do
with your knowledge?
It doesn't only mean Java. Must mean religious knowledge.
You can be a plumber, you can be a dress maker, you can be a
carpenter, you can be an engineer, and you can benefit so many, so
many 1000s of people with your knowledge. The fourth question and
malihi Allah is going to ask you about your your your wealth, your
money, how did you earn your money and how did you spend your money?
Says the NABI Muhammad sallam. Now, when I come to this hadith
out of love and concern, I always say to my beloved brothers and
sisters, the smokers
that you are going to be asked the day of qiyama, why did you spend
100,000
ran on smoking cigarettes?
So I'm saying to my dear brothers and sisters,
I might not have the opportunity again, because I don't know how
long Allah is going to spare me. Allah's granted my mother and my
father, eight children, my younger sister, she is gone. She wasn't
sick. She had no ailments. She is gone. So I want to make use of the
opportunity to tell you my beloved brothers and sisters quit smoking
for the sake of Allah. Subhanho wa taala, because you are going to be
questioned.
You know, I always remember my Ustaz from Egypt, Shahab to Hamid
Kish. I consider him to be my Ustaz because I've learned so
much, and I haven't seen him.
He said, One day on the Gazette, on the lecture, a professor, 60
years ago found out that smoking causes, causes. 200 diseases. 200
diseases. The de luxteone is lung cancer. De luxteone tree on it,
but he says there are two benefits in smoking. The first benefit is
the dogs will never come near to you, because dogs don't like smoke
and and fire. The second benefit is the burgunders will never break
into your house, because when they come to your house to come and
break in and they listen at your window, they will hear
and they will run away. That's the only benefits of smoking.
Otherwise, no benefits must mean again, on a serious note, don't
wait for the doctor to tell you Buddha or Titi, if you don't smoke
or stop smoking now two weeks and you will die, then the Buddha
stops. No, stop, for the sake of Allah, for the pleas of
Allah,
must mean just for a moment, try to imagine that we are in
medinawa, Ibu
na ilabeti, Rasulillah, and we are going to the house of our beloved,
Nabi, Muhammad, wakul Bab, and we knock on the door of Rasulullah,
Salah, and Rasulullah opens the door and greet us and welcome.
US, Allah. And then the NABI Muhammad guided us to his small,
little room, and he says to us,
hayunas, unfamiliness, the best of all people are those who are the
best to other people. Rasulullah saying to us,
hayunas, unfamiliar. Nurse. The best of creation, the best of
Allah's creation, are those who are the most beneficial to the
creation of Allah. And then the rabbi Muhammad says to us in nahab
al ibad ansa, the most beloved of Allah's slaves and worshippers are
those who are the most beneficial to others. Wahala, Amali, Allah
and the most beloved deed in the eyes of Allah. Sururu, Alan nurse,
is when you bring happiness and a smile to other people. Allah,
Akbar, and
then the NABI Muhammad said to us, in conclusion,
Rasulullah says to us, la an am Shia ma Akhi al Muslim, the
akdiyah hajatahu for me to go with my Muslim brother to see to his
need is better than 30 days in the masjid of Rasulullah. That 30 days
for you, what do you do for others? Am I supposed
to mean the yardstick
and the criterion to be a good Muslim and a better Muslim? It's
not the your Salah and your reading of the Quran and your
fasting and your sadaqah, but the yachts to get the criterion to
appear better Muslim is, what difference Have you made in this
community
as
alokumbillah and tas maholi and Akula,
my beloved ones, I ask you, in the name of Allah, to allow me to say
the following, Allah muslimina and yastah Kiru mean no milha, it is
necessary for the muslimeen to wake up, to wake up from the
heedlessness that state of unconcerned about others. Just
imagine how selfish it is that you only look after you yourself and
your wife and your children, and you don't care less about others.
I'm reminding you my dear brothers and sisters, according to our
beloved Nabi Muhammad Ali, said to Islam, the greatest leader, the
sophist heart, the person with the greatest character. He says,
Salawat, if you don't care for other Muslims and for other
people. You are not considered to be part of the Ummah, siddhina
Muhammad in SallAllahu, sallam.
So what must mean? I
want to say to you today, there is even a greater concern. And
the concern is, first of all, I want to say to you,
we are of
the few Muslims in the world, in this country that enjoy the best
of freedom of religion.
Alhamdulillah, you
know, Shaykh is my Lord. Told me two days ago, a person came from
Makkah to the masjid
in Bucha in dor Street. And this person of Makkah says,
I think the most fortunate and the most vibrant Muslims in the world
are the Muslims on Cape Town.
He says, You can see the Brotherhood. You can see the love,
the love for Deen
Allah, the fear is a must mean, if we are not going to rise to the
occasion, may Allah protect then Allah might just take this away.
The question is, what are we doing? How are we going to save
these young people?
You know, currently in Cape Town there are 1000s and 1000s of young
children, 234,
innocent children. I'm saying to you today, Jamal must mean, if we
are not going to do something, most of these children are just
going to become drug addicts. But just imagine, you get involved and
you with a cause, had one child instead of becoming a gangster or
a drug addict, he became a decent Muslim, he became a leader. Then
you've contributed, and that is why I want to remind you of the
following ayah
Allah says to us, WA Tara
YOP assist, contribute to attain goodness, honor, dignity,
integrity, morality, kindness and piety. Allah saying to all of us,
I just want to remind you, this ayah is not for some.
There in Saudi Arabia, or somebody there in Egypt or in Libya or in
Tunis. This ayah is meant for each one of us.
Wata awanu albiri, watakwa, help and contribute to attain goodness,
morality, integrity. Piety. Wala ta awanu Alan, if me will order
one and do not know when it comes to wrongdoings and do not ya. The
Allah says when it comes to animosity, keep this ummah
together. Keep this community together. Don't encourage this for
your brother or your sister or the musali with you not to speak to
the other musali. No, rather encourage him to reconcile. Now,
what Muslim mean? I want, I just want to say that
one of, one of, one of the things that currently cause a lot of
animosity amongst the Muslim ummah is the fact that we don't have
respect for the views of others.
We came to believe that the group, or the Jama that I belong to, is
the only correct Jama on the straight path, and the only group
that will go to Jannah or the other Muslim you will go to
jahannam. Our job is not to judge. Our job is wanu ibad Allah, live
together as brothers, true brothers, says
Abu lavid, Dabi, Muhammad, Salla, salam, su jamat, Musa, mean,
if your brother keeps mowed, or he don't keep mowed, he's still your
brother. When he keeps la barang with Ma or the sighting of the
moon. He's your brother. It's different since the time of our
beloved Nabi Muhammad, sallAllahu, wasallam two Sahaba, they won't
travel, and they couldn't find water. They were looking and
looking and seeking for water. They couldn't find the water. And
then they decided to take tayam to make salah. Says, Before the exit
of the rock, they found water, and the one said, Alhamdulillah, we
found the water. We must take udu and makes Allah again. The other
one said, no, no, no, no, no. We finished. We finished.
They did it. When they came back to Madinah and told rasulallah
Muhammad said, You the one that has made extra salah, Allah has
given you double, double rewards, but the one that didn't repeat the
Salah, he is on the Haqq,
but they were still brothers. They did not fight. So there will
always be differences about Muslim I'm appealing again today. Let us
be those people that contribute to morality, integrity, unity,
brotherhood, and not be the cause of animosity amongst Muslim mean.
Now,
what must mean?
Allah subhana wa Taala says in the Quran whether kirfa in the vikara,
tanfa on mumin,
mahalo to Jinnah will insert in LA dia Abu Dun, Allah says, remind
one another, because by reminding one another, is a great benefit
for the believers. And after Allah says to us, remind one another,
Allah gives us reminder, wama, khalaqul, Jinnah, will insul, I
haven't created jinn, nor human beings only for one purpose, and
that is to serve Allah.
All of us, we were created to serve Allah.
And Allah says in another, ayah, Allah, akum ayukum Asmaa. Allah is
created death and life for to teach you Who of you are going to
be the best in deeds we've heard earlier, the best of all people,
of those who are the most beneficial to others say, Oh,
beloved Nabi Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam.
Now what must mean?
I just want to I know my time is limited, but I just want to say to
you,
it is not too late to make a difference in this world. Are you
not too old to make a difference in this world. In fact, last year
I was I found myself in the main road in Brooklyn. Then I saw old
people of 75 years and eight years old with the bags and the Bible.
And they are walking the streets of Brooklyn.
They are walking the streets of Brooklyn to spread the shirk. We
are the muslimeen to spread the Haqq and the Nur. And I
want to remind myself and my honorable brothers and sisters,
your duty is not to force a person to become Muslim. There's no force
in Islam. Your job is wamalai, Kaila bala, You just deliver the
message that's all the rest you live in the hands of Allah.
Aba
Tubu, Illallah was tafiru,
my dear beloved ones make tawbah to Allah, repent to Allah and ask
Allah for forgiveness for all our shortcomings, for ina rasa.
Wahabi bakum Ali said to Islam, Taal atta, Ibu Min dambi, Kamala
dambala, a person that returns from his wrongdoings and his evil
doings by Allah, it is as if he has done nothing wrong in the past
and a beloved Abu Muhammad says, kun lubini, Adam Khata un waka in
the tawabun, each and every child of Nabi Adam makes mistakes and
wrongdoings, but the best of them are those who return to Allah
subhanho. WA
must mean, I want to remind you
that there are so many Muslims
that are neglectful with the Salah, and that is one of the
kabay that is one of the major sins.
So my dear brother and my dear sister, if you you are here today
and you are still neglectful in a Salah, I ask you, in the name of
Allah subhanahu wa, to make that decision that from today onwards,
you're not going to miss one salah. Because I want to say to
you, and I want to remind you that our beloved Nabi Muhammad says,
Man lucky Allah, Allahu, Ali, Salah, Lam ya ABA, Illa will be
Shaykh. I mean Hassan ATI, any person that leaves this world
while he or she was neglected with the Salah, Allah, stop increasing
all your other good deeds. You could have gone for Hajj every
year. You could have gone gone for Umrah every month. You could have
given millions to the poor every day, but because of your
negligence of the Salah, Allah, don't want to see you. Allah,
don't want to speak to you, says Rasulullah, the Malay come, will
come and speak to you and tell you, these people are going to
Jannah, but you, your place is there were the kufar, and with the
words of kufar their own Haman, Ubay, Beni Khalif, very serious.
Ahmadine. So if you are here and you are still neglectful on the
Salah, I want you to thank Allah that you are here today. So did
you have been reminded? Did you make that important decision that
from the day onwards, you're not going to miss one salah? You know,
last year we had the janaz and mitzelsplain and after the Janaza,
I said a few words, because my beloved mother, may Allah grant
her, and all our mothers and fathers Jannatul fill those. She
always told me, my son, if there's a janazah, just say a few words.
Look at the barakah of my the advice of my mother. So I spoke
about this hadith, and after the salatul janazah, a person came to
me. Said to me, Sheik, I just want to say to you shukran for these
words, because I am one of those people that are neglectful with
the Salah, but I was not walking behind the janazah. And I said to
myself, Rashid, what? What if you have been that janazah, what would
your condition instead have been by Allah The Day of Qiyamah? And
he said to me, Sheik, so that's why I've made the decision from
today onwards, I'm not going to miss one salah,
Allahu. Akbar. The reason why I'm saying Allahu Akbar, Mawlana,
iStan fortune was imam of that Masjid. He said to me, six months
after the sheik, I just want to say to you that gutarashid, since
that day is Fajr, doer, Asr, Mahisha, every day in a masjid,
I'm
not finished with the salah. I want to remind you Allah says for
wailu lil musalinam and salatim sahun, a certain valley in the
fire of Jahannam woah say, Allah. Listen to what Allah says. Lil
musalline, for those people who make salah, but how does he make
salah? Aladinam and Salah team, but they are neglectful with the
salah. You know what? What? Nick listens Allah speak here they make
five times salah, but they make Doer after as time, those people
who make fire five Salah out of time, Allah has prepared for them
a valley in the fire of jahannam. What about those people who don't
even make Salah in Ali lahi wa in ala Raju on Jamaat was mean.
Allow me just another three or four minutes. You know this hadith
that I've read now, kulini, Adam khattun. Each and every child will
be Adam makes mistakes, but the best of them are those who return
to Allah. I've been saying this for 25 years in the Majid where I
am now, just recently, I've added another Hadith to conclude every
Juma. And this is a special Hadith. This is a gift from
Rasulullah sallam. Listen, listen, may my dear brothers and sisters,
this is a guarantee to the Jannah.
It manuli, sit and atman nakumu, Janata si rasulallah, guarantee
for me, Sikhs and I will guarantee you the Jannah. Oh, fu Ida, aha,
tum, if you made a promise, carry out your promise. USD, whenever
you speak, speak the truth guarantee. For me, you can speak
the truth that will be part of your guarantee to the Jannah. The
third one, Rasulullah says, carry out your Amarna, your
responsibilities. For example, my dear brothers, looking after your
wife is a Amarna. Look after your mana guarantee. For me, I will
guarantee the Jannah. Listen to the fourth one, hafidu Furu jakun,
protect your private parts as Rasulullah, then I will guarantee
you the Jannah, the Mahatma. We live in a time that people have
got no honor and respect for their dignity and their honor.
Allah says in the Quran, one of the reasons why people will enter
Jannah will levy.
Only furujim havidun are those people who have preserved their
private parts.
I was at the MGC for many years on a Thursday morning,
and women coming every day to MGC for a Talaq or a
and 60 to 70% of the reason why they want to get out is because
their husbands are sleeping around. We're not talking about
not Muslim as we're talking about Muslims. May Allah protect the
Java Muslim.
Half you do furujakum.
You know, I always say to young people, and it's important always
to remind them and encourage them how wonderful it is for a young
man the day he got married, tonight will be the first time
that he's going to sleep with a woman love.
And these are the things that we need to discuss with our sons and
our daughters and our nephews and our nieces as
part of your contribution. And how great is it for this young man
that night when he stepped with his wife, until Allah took him
away from this world. You have never put his private parts in a
woman that is haram, and him, my brother, I'm saying to you,
deserve to go to Jannah.
The fifth one Rasulullah says, guarantee for me, you're going to
lower your gaze. You're going to lower your gaze. I always say to
men that some men are looking at women in the street as if they are
looking at the Wimbledon tennis match. They
want us to look at all the women. No, you must lower your gaze to
Muslim men. What is even more serious of looking at women the
streets is the * that is available, the dirty *.
And there are so many Muslims that are looking at *. Now
what must mean? I'm saying again to you, my dear brother and my
dear sister, if you are one of those people that look at
*, saying Allah that you are here so that you can make
tawba to Allah, just imagine Allah has taken your way and you in that
state of looking at *. La Hawla, wala, kuwata, Illa,
Bilal, dim and Jamaat al Muslim in the sad part of it is it is so
easily available and accessible even on the cell phones.
May Allah forgive us for our shortcomings.
Guarantee for me, you going to lower your gaze. I will get into
the Jannah. And lastly, the Nabih Muhammad says, guarantee for me,
you're going to keep your family together. How do you keep your
family together? You keep your family together to give the same
judgment on your family
about yourself, you know that you're not perfect. You know that
you've got a lot of mistakes and shortcomings. Now, likewise, your
brother and your sister and your uncle and your cousins and your
whole family. They are also human beings. They're not perfect.
Can you imagine? They are brothers in this world, own brothers from
one mother, one Father. They don't talk for they don't talk to one
another. For years, this one brother said to his wife when he
became sick, if my brother come to visit me, you don't allow Him to
come into the house and the day I die, you don't align with the
janazah stuff.
Rasulullah says you guarantee for me you're going to overlook the
shortcomings of your family and keep your family together. And I
will guarantee you the genesis of beloved Nabi Muhammad risu to an
regime. Yeah, I will live in Taku laha will nafsuma.
Oh, you believe fear Allah. Be conscious of Allah. Now, what must
mean? Make more time for the Quran. Alam Yani, la Dina, Aman or
Tasha, kulum li Vikki, Allah, hasn't the time arrived for the
believers to connect their hearts with the Quran, not only your
tongues, not only reading the Quran, connect your hearts with
the Quran. Quran, don't people have make time to ponder and
contemplate with the words of Allah. We must respond. You must
say, Allah, we haven't got time. We've been neglect. We have got
more time for Manchester United and for Arsenal. If Manchester
United lose or Arsenal lose, then we are angry, Allah, but we're not
angry. We haven't read the Quran for the whole month of the whole
year, or for two years.
So be count Allah says, Oh, you believe. Be conscious of Allah,
fear. Allah, well tandoori, and let each and every person look
into your preparations for tomorrow, not tomorrow, the eighth
of February. 2014, Allah is referring to the day of qiyama for
as tomorrow, Saturday, the eighth of February is near. Likewise, the
Day of Qiyamah is also so near.
While TANF summa *, what takula Allah says Again, fear Allah
becomes of Allah. And listen to the last ayah that we're going to
end and please remember it. And if you're going to remember it and
practice it and implement it, you're on your way to the Jannah
in allahabir. Indeed, certainly Allah is well informed and well
acquainted with whatever you do. If you remember this ayah, you're
on your way to the Jannah.
Because a true believer, you don't want to do wrong or say anything
wrong, because Allah is well informed and well acquainted with
whatever we do. Muslim May Allah subhanaw grant that the rest of
our lives is going to be the best of our lives. And the theme of the
khutbah today was, Get involved. Get involved in the community, you
know, I mean to say, for example, you know, I look at some of our
young girls coming to high school for the first time, and I said to
myself, these young girls are so innocent, but they are going into
this dangerous place, free mixing. So I said to myself, just imagine,
for example, here in Weinberg, the Darwin are in girls school. If all
of us in Weinberg and the surrounding areas involve
ourselves, and we make this school one of the most successful and the
biggest schools in Cape Town, why to save our girls now, what Muslim
mean? I don't want to go into detail, but we had so many reports
of the government schools that most of the girls are sexually
active. There's no time to go into details. They lose their honor and

whatever time Allah has given us and whatever time is left, let us
get involved to uplift the Ummah and humanity. It Lord Muhammad
Alhamdulillah.
