Fariq Naik – The Exemplary Resilience of the Palestinians

I would like to stress upon the ongoing

genocide that is happening to our Palestinian brothers

and sisters in Gaza.

More than 17,000 Palestinians have been killed

in Gaza since 7th of October.

According to Al Jazeera, more than 25,000

Palestinians are either killed or misplaced in Gaza.

This is a genocide that is done by

Israel.

We pray for our Palestinian brothers and sisters.

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala keep them

steadfast.

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala reward them

and may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala give

them Jannatul Firdaus.

For those who are martyrs, may Allah subhanahu

wa ta'ala admit them into Jannatul Firdaus.

We see our Palestinian brothers and sisters, even

though they are being bombed, yet they are

patient and they remember Allah subhanahu wa ta

'ala.

They do not lose hope in Allah subhanahu

wa ta'ala.

And we are seeing videos, in fact live

videos of our Palestinian brothers and sisters being

bombed and being attacked.

And unfortunately, the Muslim world is not doing

enough.

It is a pity state.

But Alhamdulillah in this situation, we see the

non-Muslims as a whole, whether it be

in the western countries, whether it be in

America, whether it be in UK, whether it

be in Europe, Germany, France, all of these

countries, besides the Muslims, even non-Muslims, they

are standing up for the cause of Palestine.

As far as the non-Muslims are concerned,

the common people, they are supporting the Palestinian

cause.

So there is an awakening.

People, they want to learn more about Islam.

Several Palestinians have been killed, but at the

same time, there are several non-Muslims who

want to read about Islam.

They are concerned that how come these Palestinian

brothers and sisters, even though they are being

bombed, they are losing their family members, yet

they are patient and they remember Allah subhanahu

wa ta'ala.

The non-Muslims, they are shocked.

What is the resilience and the courage of

these Palestinian brothers and sisters, which is leading

to the non-Muslims reading the glorious Quran,

which is leading to many of the non

-Muslims accepting Islam.

They plan and plot and Allah plans and

Allah is the best of planners.

So the non-Muslims, they are reading more

about Islam after this issue of Palestine.

The Palestinian brothers and sisters, they are very

courageous and may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

reward them for their efforts.

We see so many videos wherein the Palestinian

brothers and sisters, even though they are losing

their loved ones and their family members, yet

they are patient and they know that this

is a test from Allah subhanahu wa ta

'ala.

And what great reward from Allah subhanahu wa

ta'ala than sacrificing your life for the

sake of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, being

a martyr for the sake of Allah subhanahu

wa ta'ala.

And we know several ahadith of our beloved

Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, which stress

upon the virtues of a martyr.

We need to support our Palestinian brothers and

sisters to the best of our capabilities.

We need to stand up for our Palestinian

brothers and sisters and object to what Israel

is doing, wherein they are killing innocent women,

children and civilians.

We pray to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

that may continue keeping our Palestinian brothers and

sisters steadfast and may Allah subhanahu wa ta

'ala grant all of those who have lost

their lives with Jannatul Firdaus.

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala admit them

into the gardens of paradise.

We ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, we

pray to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala that

may he always be with our Palestinian brothers

and sisters and we pray for the victory

of Palestine.

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says, ala inna

nasrallahi qareeb, verily the victory of Allah subhanahu

wa ta'ala, it is close.

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, he knows what

oppression is happening.

It is a test for the Palestinian brothers

and sisters and at the same time it

is a test for us how much we

are ready to sacrifice and support our Palestinian

brothers and sisters during this ongoing slaughter and

genocide.
