00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			This verse is in.
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			This is about non Muslims.
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			When they hear what has been revealed to
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			the prophets, they start shedding tears.
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			And what happened to us?
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			When do you cry?
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			That's the question that you all have to
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:27
			ask. Men and women, I've seen men sobbing.
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			I have seen men sobbing and I have
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			seen women sobbing.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:35
			What makes you cry outside the Quran? Think
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:36
			of it.
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			And then come bring it to the Quran
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			and say, can I do that?
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			What do I need?
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			And I will give you just a simple
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:46
			clue.
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			The less distracted you are,
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			the more connected with the Quran, and the
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:53
			more you will feel it.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			The imam read beautifully.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:57
			Beautiful.
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:01
			It's I I was saying to my it's
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:02
			coming from his heart.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:06
			Every word he's saying and he's reading slowly
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:08
			and then
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			why didn't I move?
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:13
			Then you have to ask Allah
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:16
			before you come to Taraweeh. Don't watch things.
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			Don't be in the car and you're looking
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			at your social media. You're not going to
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:20
			cry.
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:23
			As you're coming,
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			prepare yourself
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:26
			to be moved.
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:29
			Read what he is gonna be reading.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			Listen to a mukhara, to a reciter that
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			moves you as you are in the car.
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			If you're a family, make sure you put
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			it in the car and ask Allah to
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			move that heart.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:43
			And this is a saying,
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:47
			whomsoever was given knowledge that will not make
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:48
			him or her cry,
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			then he was not given the knowledge
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:54
			because Allah described the knowledgeable people.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			This is the 3 verses of the Quran
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			where Allah describes those
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:03
			who knows Allah, who knows the Quran,
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:04
			and they cry.
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			You will hear it in Surat Mariam.
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			The last verse in Surat Al Isra.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			Remember the mountain I shared with you in
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:23
			the beginning?
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:25
			If the mountain
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:26
			will get
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:27
			goosebumps
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29
			in me,
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:31
			Nothing happens?
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:34
			And if my son or child gets sick,
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:35
			I start crying?
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:39
			Please forgive me, and sometimes we see movie.
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:42
			You Allah,
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:43
			movie.
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:45
			And we start crying.
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:47
			True?
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:50
			Alhamdulillah.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:52
			What is this?
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:55
			If you get this this then you're really
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:55
			smart.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:57
			What is this?
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:05
			It's a photography with a light. No.
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:07
			Something to do with medicine. Clue.
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:10
			Say that again.
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			That's fine. If you don't know it, I
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:15
			will be very surprised.
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:19
			Yes.
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:23
			It's when the heart is in extreme fear,
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:25
			that's what happens to it.
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:28
			That's
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:30
			are you a believer?
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:31
			Show me hands.
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:33
			2 hands.
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:36
			That's the description.
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:41
			In the Arabic language,
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:44
			meaning it's that they say in the Arabic
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:48
			language. Meaning everything comes come that comes after,
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:51
			it has no other meaning but this meaning.
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:53
			And that's what Allah said in Suratul Amfar.
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:56
			You will hear it probably next week.
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:00
			Verily the believer.
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			Those who are.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:07
			And it's not fear.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			Is you know when you put water
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			in a pot and and the water start
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:14
			boiling
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			very hard and then starts coming
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:17
			up, that's
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:20
			a.
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:26
			I want you all take a picture of
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:27
			this one.
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:30
			Underline these three characters.
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:32
			This is the
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:35
			words of your lord. That's not me.
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:38
			Meaning you're in
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:39
			you
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:41
			are in a lecture, you are reading the
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:44
			Quran, you're listening to the Quran, doesn't matter.
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			This is of Allah.
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:46
			3
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:49
			things, my heart has to change,
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:52
			my faith has to be stronger,
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			my relationship with Allah will change.
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			I'm gonna put these 3, I'm gonna make
		
00:04:58 --> 00:05:00
			them a goal. It's not gonna happen tomorrow
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			by the way,
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:04
			Doesn't matter. Let it happen after a year.
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:07
			I don't care, but let it happen. Let
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:07
			it be.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:10
			And my faith
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:11
			has to be stronger.
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:15
			That's what Quran should do to me. I
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:16
			need to cry.
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:18
			I need to my faith be stronger,
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:23
			my relationship with Allah, my skin change, my
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:24
			fear and love
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:27
			to with Allah, the feelings with Allah should
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			change. That's what the Quran
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:32
			should change to me. Look at this picture.
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:36
			I found this on Google years ago. I
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			know what I was looking for, and I
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:39
			kept
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:40
			it. What what
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			when you look at this, and I'm looking
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:43
			at your faces,
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:45
			many of you are smiling,
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:47
			which is
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:49
			true. Why you're smiling?
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:53
			What makes you smile in this picture?
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:57
			It's not only worshiping Allah. We all worship
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			Allah. Everybody was doing this outside.
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:02
			What is the uniqueness
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:03
			about his worship?
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:10
			Say it. Trust in Allah. Say that again.
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:16
			Absolutely.
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:21
			We are gonna be very scared. I'm gonna
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:23
			go for record. The boat will move.
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25
			And he left everything.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:28
			Of course, the colors are beautiful.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:32
			But what else that's unique in this picture?
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:35
			He's a very simple man.
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:40
			He didn't say, you know what, he's probably,
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:43
			he's going for fishing.
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:46
			He didn't say, you know what? When I'm
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:48
			gonna make my salah, it's probably the fish
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:50
			will go under the boat, and I'm missing
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:52
			today's sustenance.
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:55
			That's what happened to us.
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:57
			We don't do this because we are not
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:58
			fishermen,
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:01
			but we go to work and we
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:02
			miss
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:03
			our
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:04
			salah.
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:05
			Right?
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:06
			Right?
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:08
			And people look at me and says, I
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:10
			can do it. And I say, why not?
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:12
			Well, doctor Eunice, you know and I'm talking
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			about there, not here.
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			And I and he said, what? He says,
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:17
			you know, I mean, who's gonna give me
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:19
			a place to pray? I was not really.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:22
			There's no single place to pray. Everybody is
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:23
			looking at me. I said, everybody always look
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:24
			at each other.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:28
			This is one of the unique things. There's
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:30
			2 things at at least caught my eyes.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:31
			He was not scared
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:35
			because it could easily a wind comes in
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:36
			and
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:37
			flip him,
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:40
			and he didn't make his work
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:42
			Take him away from Allah
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:47
			That's what we should be.
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:49
			And this is also in Surat Mariam.
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:52
			When I say Allahu Akbar
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			do you know Sheikh Saeed Al Kamli? How
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:56
			many of you know him?
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:59
			He was actually recently here, I think.
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			You know him?
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:02
			If you don't know him, you need to
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:02
			know him.
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:04
			He has a beautiful
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:07
			I think it's less than a minute or
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:07
			2
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:10
			clip about Allahu Akbar.
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:13
			I think was one of the best I've
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:13
			heard.
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:15
			What does it mean
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:18
			when you say Allahu Akbar? Go and find
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			it. It's on on the on the YouTube.
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:22
			Just say, Sayid Al Kamdi Allahu Akbar. You
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:23
			will find it right away.
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			And this is basically what it is.
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:28
			When you say Allahu Akbar
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:30
			and you're reading, you're listening to the Quran,
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:32
			everything else outside
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:34
			should be
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:37
			much smaller because you said Allahu Akbar.
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:40
			When you open the Quran, it's His words,
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:42
			those words
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			bigger than anything else.
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:46
			That's how I should be.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:49
			So time for shift,
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:50
			change.
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:52
			Change the receiver,
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:54
			change the receiver,
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:59
			and the receiver is the heart.
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:04
			Because everywhere in the Quran Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:05
			ta'ala talked about the heart.
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:08
			He didn't say the brain.
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:12
			Don't they have hearts?
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:15
			And the hearts are supposed to
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:17
			comprehend.
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:20
			This is also tomorrow. You'll read it in.
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:27
			Their hearts
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:28
			locked,
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:31
			completely wrapped.
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:35
			I need to work on my heart, and
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			this is a whole different lecture one day,
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:40
			Insha'Allah, or you can actually also find it
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:40
			in the tazkiya,
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:43
			series. So the hearts the problem is the
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:45
			hearts, and that's what Allah says.
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:48
			You drive, you see the sea,
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:50
			you see the food.
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:52
			Even when the food you look at the
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:54
			food, subhanallah, when they got me
		
00:09:56 --> 00:09:57
			when he got they got me the the
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			iftar I looked and I was like you
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:00
			Allah
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:03
			look at the color of the food.
		
00:10:03 --> 00:10:05
			Literally, I was just looking. I was like,
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:06
			subhanallah,
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			every one, especially the the one that is
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:12
			not really cooked, meaning the fresh ones, has
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			creation of Allah directly
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			on this table. I look and say,
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:19
			what colors are these?
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			Who are you?
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:25
			The more you do this when you stand
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:26
			up in that salah
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:28
			and you hear that those words of Allah
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:30
			Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, you'll move.
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:31
			Absolutely.
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:34
			Yes or no?
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:37
			Yes or no? Really?
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:41
			Are you gonna stay to your word?
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:43
			You're not gonna change it?
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:47
			When was the last time you gave the
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:48
			Quran gift of flowers?
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:52
			Okay.
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:55
			This is the signs you love.
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:58
			True or false? Not the Quran in general.
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:01
			Right? You see someone you love and you're
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:02
			so happy,
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:05
			and you look at her at his face
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:07
			or you look at her face and say
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:08
			she's in love.
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:10
			Look what happened to her face when he
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:10
			came
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:13
			Or look at his face. He is absolutely
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:15
			in love with her.
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:16
			Right?
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:17
			Yes?
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:19
			Okay.
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:21
			And you love to spend a lot you
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:22
			know, they they talk on the phone for
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:23
			hours.
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:26
			Right? It's 3 AM in the morning, they're
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:27
			still talking, they don't get
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:28
			tired. Okay?
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:30
			You'll miss them
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:32
			if you love them? Yes?
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:34
			Yes or no?
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:37
			And you always talk to them and take
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:39
			their opinion. Even if you know the answer,
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:40
			you still call them,
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:41
			right,
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:43
			and you obey them.
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:44
			Yes?
		
00:11:45 --> 00:11:46
			So do you love the Quran?
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:52
			Do you love the Quran? You all said
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:52
			yes.
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:54
			Okay. So do you are happy to be
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:56
			with the Quran or you keep flipping how
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:57
			much left?
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:02
			Okay. Do you spend long time
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:05
			as long as
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:07
			on social media?
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:09
			Do you miss the Quran?
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:11
			You
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:14
			you're all laughing.
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:17
			So when you leave the phone
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:20
			and you left the house and the phone
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:22
			is in the house, what will happen usually?
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:25
			Panic and you go back,
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:26
			right?
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:28
			What happens if you love the Quran?
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:32
			Don't answer me, you know the answer.
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:38
			We're getting to the end of it.
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:40
			This is what you need.
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:43
			We love the Quran, I have no doubt,
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:45
			but we don't love the Quran deep,
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:48
			and we don't love the Quran genuine. You
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:50
			know what I'm what I'm saying? Of course,
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:51
			we love it.
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:52
			But it's just like when you say, do
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:54
			you love your mom? Of course, I love
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:56
			my mom because she's my mom. That's very
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:56
			different
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:59
			than when you say, I not only love
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:01
			my mom, I adore her.
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:03
			You don't know what she did for me.
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:05
			That's a complete different answer.
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:08
			So number 1, you need to do dua.
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:12
			Absolutely dua. And Allah said this, and He
		
00:13:12 --> 00:13:13
			read it to you today also.
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:18
			Allah will will answer it.
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:19
			And this is
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:23
			I'm gonna yeah. That's the dua, actually.
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:25
			I want you all to know it. It's
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:26
			actually it's dua.
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			This is a dua when you feel bad,
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:32
			when you feel down, when you feel sad.
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:35
			That's the the dua. If you Google and
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:37
			you say, which what should I say when
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:37
			I am
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:38
			in pain?
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:41
			I am feeling down. So actually this is
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:43
			the dua, but it's also the dua for
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:44
			making the Quran
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:46
			the spring of your heart. That's why I
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:48
			put it in in red.
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:58
			And I make it for you here in
		
00:13:58 --> 00:13:59
			in bold.
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:00
			Make the Quran
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:03
			the spring of my heart. Pay attention to
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:03
			the words
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:06
			that Rasul, alaihis salatu, wasalam, said.
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:07
			He said, spring,
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:09
			the light of my chest,
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:11
			the remover
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:14
			of all my sadness and the reliever of
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:15
			my distress.
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:17
			Why did he say spring?
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:20
			What is spring?
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:25
			So rabiya is a is a season.
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:27
			And what is the other meaning for rabiya?
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:29
			Nam?
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:34
			Well, that's all for the season.
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:37
			I looked up actually.
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:40
			Why do we feel good for Rabia?
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:42
			In a season, why do we feel good?
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:46
			We all we all love it. Yeah. Right?
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:47
			I mean, I love the weather now. What
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:49
			is this? It's beautiful. Right?
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:52
			Sky clear, you see the sun, the the
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:54
			temperature is beautiful, the breeze is nice, and
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:56
			this is what they say, spring because there
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:57
			is a daylight
		
00:14:58 --> 00:15:01
			and it's increased actually the brain, it's everything
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:03
			goes to the brain and what it trigger
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:05
			in the brain. So Rasool alaihi wa sallam
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:07
			taught you and me
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:09
			that Allah makes the Quran
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:13
			the spring of my heart. What's the spring
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:14
			brings to me
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:17
			in feelings, this season, I want the Quran
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:18
			the same way.
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:21
			Are you all with me? Okay. And then
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:22
			look at this.
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:25
			I'm sure you see this also. You will
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:27
			see this when I go back
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:30
			In spring, certain parts of the United States,
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:31
			that's exactly what you see.
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:35
			And people literally compete in their especially in
		
00:15:35 --> 00:15:37
			the front of their homes because you don't
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:39
			have a huge area, and you just put
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:41
			different colors of the flowers, and they all
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:42
			will bloom.
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:43
			Now
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:46
			that's the other meaning of spring.
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:51
			Spring in English
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:52
			is the
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:55
			time, but also it is spring of water.
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:57
			And what does water do?
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:03
			Read this verse.
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:08
			In Arabic or in English?
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:10
			This is the end of Surah al Surah.
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:13
			This is how Allah described the Quran.
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:17
			What is?
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:19
			Translate?
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:21
			Life.
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:26
			When we say someone died what happened?
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:27
			The
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:28
			the
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:31
			soul left the body.
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:32
			Allah told
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:33
			the
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:35
			the Quran is the life.
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:42
			It's your life and mine.
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:47
			He didn't know anything. What is faith? What
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:48
			is book?
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:52
			Look at the Quran, and this I think
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:54
			if you look at it this way, this
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:55
			verse, it will change you.
		
00:16:56 --> 00:16:58
			Keep reminding yourself that this is how it
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:00
			is. Read about the Quran.
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:03
			And this one, I love this. It's in
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:04
			suratun.
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:06
			Read
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:08
			the 2 verses.
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:15
			Guide.
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:18
			Mercy to the believers.
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:19
			2nd 1,
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:21
			we need to remind ourselves.
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:24
			Read it.
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:30
			By the grace of Allah and His mercy.
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:32
			Most scholars tell you the mercy here is
		
00:17:32 --> 00:17:34
			the Quran. Let them rejoice.
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:36
			When you pick the Quran, look at it
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:39
			as if someone gift just gifted you, a
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:40
			gift worth
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:42
			of and put numbers
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:43
			and put zeros
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:46
			add to it. It's way better than what
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:47
			they are collecting.
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:50
			What are we collecting?
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:54
			The more Allah gives us the more we
		
00:17:54 --> 00:17:54
			collect.
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:56
			I'll just share a quick if you allow
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:57
			me. I know I took a lot of
		
00:17:57 --> 00:17:58
			your time.
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:00
			At one time, I was looking for a
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:01
			house,
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:03
			and the agent was showing me the house
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:05
			and said, this is very clean house, you
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:05
			know,
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:08
			they didn't have children, the husband died, and
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:10
			then the woman, the wife lived here
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:13
			herself, and she took very good care of
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:14
			the house. I was like okay, normally there
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:16
			when you see when you go to buy
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:17
			a house usually go to the bedroom.
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:20
			SubhanAllah what Allah showed me.
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:23
			I went to the bedroom and the agent
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:25
			was saying, it's a huge closet, I was
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:26
			like okay. So I go to the closet.
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:28
			Full of
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:30
			clothes,
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:32
			brand name,
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:34
			you name it, the name is there
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:35
			in the tag,
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:39
			and the woman died.
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:44
			That's what we are collecting.
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:48
			Collecting things when we die,
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:49
			someone's gonna worry
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:52
			what they're gonna do with it. Have you
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:54
			ever lost someone dear to you and you
		
00:18:54 --> 00:18:56
			had to go to their closet?
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:00
			May Allah not let you do that.
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:02
			And then you look at them, they're gone.
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:05
			And this is
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:08
			having the Quran, looking at the Quran as
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:10
			a treasure
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:13
			way better than what you are collecting in
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:14
			your closet,
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:18
			in your business, in the bank account is
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:19
			way better.
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:22
			And then I'm gonna just because of the
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:22
			time,
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:24
			the Quran can give me
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:26
			happiness.
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:31
			This is in Surah Taha. 1st Ayah. 2nd,
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:36
			Quran was not given to me to make
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:37
			my life hard
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:39
			or difficult or challenging.
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			No. On the contrary,
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:44
			you should give me peace
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:46
			and you all know this.
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:51
			Have you ever tried show me hand
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:54
			hands? Have you ever felt
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:55
			anxious, sad,
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:58
			not feeling well? Show me your hands.
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:00
			Of course.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:02
			Have you ever tried reading the Quran at
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:03
			that moment?
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:05
			And what happened to you?
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:10
			Every time this happens, I remember this verse.
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:14
			It never failed me
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:16
			whether I stood up for 2 rakat
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:19
			to to talk to Allah or I picked
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:21
			it up or I just remembered the verse
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:23
			or sometimes I just remember this verse, and
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:24
			I was like, yeah, true.
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:28
			True. That's what nothing else will give me,
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:30
			and it's a guide
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:31
			to me,
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:33
			and it's my life.
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:36
			Absolutely, it is my life.
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:39
			If they only know.
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:42
			What is this?
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:45
			What did we see recently?
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:48
			What did they do?
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:52
			They burned it.
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:55
			And why do you think they did that?
		
00:20:57 --> 00:20:59
			Because they didn't know.
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:01
			Because if I knew
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:03
			where the walking Quran,
		
00:21:05 --> 00:21:07
			they will have never done that.
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:09
			If I knew
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:11
			no Quran
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:13
			the way Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala wants me
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:14
			and you,
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:17
			they will never be ignorant.
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:19
			They will know what it is.
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:22
			How many people celebrities
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:25
			and I'm not going to mention names, but
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:28
			you probably know who just embraced Islam recently.
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:31
			Right? Very influential man.
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:33
			Why?
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:35
			Because he knew.
		
00:21:36 --> 00:21:37
			Because he knew.
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:40
			So when you look at
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:42
			the unfortunate incident,
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:45
			the first thing when I saw it,
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:47
			I was like, I didn't do my job
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:47
			well.
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:50
			I as a Muslim
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:52
			didn't do my job well
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:55
			because if I told my neighbor,
		
00:21:55 --> 00:21:57
			I told my co worker
		
00:21:58 --> 00:21:59
			little bit about Islam
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:02
			whether in me, in my actions,
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:05
			or every now and then a word or
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:05
			2.
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:09
			And imagine every Muslim, the 1,800,000,000,
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:11
			1,000,000,000,
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:15
			would they even think of it?
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:17
			They didn't know.
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:22
			So may Allah make
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:24
			the Quran
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:26
			the spring of our hearts.
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:32
			May Allah make and bless your Ramadan,
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:36
			and may Allah bless this country. This was
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:39
			from this morning from my room actually.
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:40
			I couldn't.
		
00:22:41 --> 00:22:43
			I was reading Finnish, I was doing my
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:44
			and I just turned.
		
00:22:45 --> 00:22:46
			And I said,
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:48
			what is this?
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:50
			And I just took the picture.
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:03
			You are amazing.
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:05
			I've never seen such an audience.
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:07
			No, don't do that.
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:11
			No, really. You are so
		
00:23:11 --> 00:23:13
			paying attention, and I was like, I wanna
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:15
			be hard, I can be hard, I wanna
		
00:23:15 --> 00:23:16
			make a joke. Jazakumullah.
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:18
			I don't know if we have time for
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:20
			question answers. I don't know.
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:22
			Yes, we do. Okay. So I'll leave it
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:23
			up to you.
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:24
			Alhamdulillah,
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:26
			it takes an hour and
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:29
			If anyone has a question,
		
00:23:29 --> 00:23:31
			feel free. If you don't, that's fine. We
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:33
			definitely have a lot of things to do.
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:39
			Okay.
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:43
			Can we please, if we're gonna leave, leave
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:44
			quietly to
		
00:23:45 --> 00:23:47
			so we can give our respect to the
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:48
			person who's asking.
		
00:23:58 --> 00:24:00
			The benefit of memorizing the Quran and Ramadan.
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:02
			The benefit of memorizing the Quran. No. Obviously,
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:04
			Ramadan shahrakh Quran and we should strive to
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:07
			give it our entire time. Yes. But given
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:09
			how this dunya is, if I find myself
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:12
			short for time, do I go for like
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:13
			reading my word or memorizing?
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:16
			Okay. So if I'm gonna repeat the question
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:18
			because the question has needs to be little
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:20
			bit changed. So she said, if
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:22
			I found
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:23
			my time
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:25
			short,
		
00:24:26 --> 00:24:28
			so do I read my word or start
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:29
			memorizing the Quran?
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:37
			My first question, why if
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:41
			if you're telling I'm not you, but in
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:42
			general,
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:44
			people are different categories. There is no one
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:46
			answer fit all.
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:48
			There's no one size fit all. So if
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:49
			I am a mother,
		
00:24:50 --> 00:24:51
			a wife,
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:52
			a daughter,
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:55
			and I'm a full time worker.
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:57
			I won't have help in the house. Of
		
00:24:57 --> 00:24:58
			course, I say this because we are in
		
00:24:58 --> 00:25:00
			this part of the world. And if in
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:02
			the United States, I will not even put
		
00:25:02 --> 00:25:03
			this because there isn't. Right?
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:06
			Then the if applies
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:10
			because I'm really gonna be very short in
		
00:25:10 --> 00:25:10
			time
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:12
			especially during the week.
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:14
			But
		
00:25:15 --> 00:25:17
			if I am not these 5, then the
		
00:25:17 --> 00:25:18
			if doesn't apply.
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:19
			Meaning,
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:23
			you want to start your memorization of the
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:26
			Quran. You're not gonna memorize 1 juz a
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:26
			day.
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:29
			You're probably gonna barely be able to do
		
00:25:29 --> 00:25:30
			1 or 2 or 3 ayaat
		
00:25:31 --> 00:25:33
			a day because you're gonna find it challenging
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:34
			in the beginning
		
00:25:34 --> 00:25:35
			to focus,
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:37
			to remember, to read it well.
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:39
			Can you spare 2 hours of the day
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:40
			for the Quran?
		
00:25:44 --> 00:25:46
			How many hours I spend in the kitchen?
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:49
			Or how many hours I spend at work?
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:53
			Or how many hours I spend on social
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:54
			media,
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:55
			on TV.
		
00:25:57 --> 00:25:58
			After,
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:00
			you come full of energy.
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:02
			Have you seen? This is amazing. I always
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:05
			tell my non Muslim friends. We stand up
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:07
			there for 2 hours, dead tired. I get
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:09
			home, and I'm full of energy. I just
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:12
			can't sleep. She said, really? I said, yeah,
		
00:26:12 --> 00:26:12
			I can.
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:14
			So what do you normally do?
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:16
			Don't tell me.
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:19
			You
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:23
			know the famous line, there is a will,
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:24
			there is a way?
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:26
			I can't tell you how much I can
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:28
			tell you. I am one of the witnesses
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:28
			of this.
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:30
			When you put your
		
00:26:31 --> 00:26:31
			focus
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:34
			on memorizing the Quran, I have seen
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:37
			it in the car,
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:38
			in the elevator,
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:39
			waiting.
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:42
			She's reviewing her Quran. And one of the
		
00:26:42 --> 00:26:44
			person saw her Quran,
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:46
			looked at us and says,
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:48
			for sure,
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:49
			will
		
00:26:50 --> 00:26:53
			not will not say to you, you took
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:55
			the Quran neglected, if you see her Quran.
		
00:26:56 --> 00:26:57
			Don't say if.
		
00:26:58 --> 00:27:01
			That's my advice. You're still young. You can
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:01
			do it.
		
00:27:03 --> 00:27:04
			I'm telling you.
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:06
			You know what? In the morning, I'm gonna
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:09
			memorize. In the in the afternoon, I'm gonna
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:11
			do my wood. In the evening after tara'i,
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:12
			I'm gonna review my Quran. How long it
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:15
			will take? 3 hours? It's still 21 hours
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:16
			in the day.
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:19
			Just just raise the bar as we say.
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:21
			Raise the bar.
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:23
			Be a plus student with Allah,
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:26
			and this is the journey of the memorization.
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:28
			It goes up like that.
		
00:27:29 --> 00:27:32
			50, 60% of the people will fall.
		
00:27:32 --> 00:27:33
			They quit.
		
00:27:33 --> 00:27:36
			It's too hard. I can't. I forget. I'm
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:38
			too old. You name it, shaitan is gonna
		
00:27:38 --> 00:27:40
			come to you. Keep going. You're gonna reach
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:42
			here. It's usually when you have at least
		
00:27:42 --> 00:27:43
			an Ibsa.
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:46
			By 15, for sure, you are there.
		
00:27:47 --> 00:27:49
			Afterward, it's gonna go like that.
		
00:27:50 --> 00:27:52
			You read 1 page, and the page is
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:54
			done, and you say, how has that happened?
		
00:27:54 --> 00:27:55
			And it's a lifelong
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:56
			journey.
		
00:27:57 --> 00:27:58
			Don't you think
		
00:27:59 --> 00:28:01
			the imam who read today,
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:03
			and no mistake,
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:05
			don't you think he did not review before
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:06
			he came?
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:09
			I was told the of the haram,
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:12
			one read to the other before they read
		
00:28:12 --> 00:28:14
			because it is a lifelong journey.
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:17
			There is no one does not make a
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:18
			mistake in the Quran.
		
00:28:18 --> 00:28:21
			One time. And as one of my teachers
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:22
			when I used to get Yani, I was
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:25
			like, when is this gonna be better? She
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:27
			said, she you just look at me and
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:27
			says,
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:32
			That's how she she looked at me and
		
00:28:32 --> 00:28:34
			says, the words of Allah, it's that loftiest,
		
00:28:35 --> 00:28:36
			nothing above it. Do Do you think he's
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:38
			you're gonna memorize it like that? Of course,
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:39
			you're gonna make mistakes.
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:43
			Raise the bar, give it more time, make
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:45
			it as a priority, and see what Allah
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:45
			will give you.
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:48
			You
		
00:28:51 --> 00:28:52
			don't wanna move into
		
00:28:53 --> 00:28:54
			Everybody is sitting.
		
00:28:56 --> 00:28:56
			Alhamdulillah,
		
00:28:57 --> 00:28:59
			that's the most important thing. Alhamdulillahirban.
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:01
			Any question?
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:04
			Yes, please. Go ahead.
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:08
			I don't I don't know if this is
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:10
			working because they're passing the mic.
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:13
			Yeah. She tried, but I don't think it
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:15
			worked. Can you hear me now? Thank you
		
00:29:15 --> 00:29:17
			very much for this interesting and deep lecture.
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:18
			I I'm sorry?
		
00:29:18 --> 00:29:21
			I said thank you for this interesting and
		
00:29:21 --> 00:29:22
			deep lecture.
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:25
			I came from a country where people are
		
00:29:25 --> 00:29:28
			really memorizing Quran. Which country you are from?
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:31
			Oh, they memorize there too? I thought Somalia
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:32
			usually is number 1.
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:37
			As well. So people are really paying, like
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:41
			putting their effort to memorize Quran rather than
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:44
			like add True. And like do what Quran
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:46
			say. So do you think it's important
		
00:29:46 --> 00:29:49
			to memorize the whole Quran and there is
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:49
			no even
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:51
			one Iya like in
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:54
			I think it's most important
		
00:29:59 --> 00:30:00
			What do you think It's a very nice
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:03
			question, actually, and she said it beautifully in
		
00:30:03 --> 00:30:05
			the Arabic. This is always a dilemma.
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:07
			Should I memorize the Quran
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:08
			without understanding?
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:11
			And like a bird, I call it bird.
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:13
			You know, you hear the voice is beautiful,
		
00:30:13 --> 00:30:15
			but the bird doesn't know what he's saying.
		
00:30:15 --> 00:30:17
			Or should I spend time on understanding?
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:20
			The idea is both.
		
00:30:21 --> 00:30:22
			If I have a child,
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:25
			for 6 or a 7 year old, absolutely,
		
00:30:25 --> 00:30:27
			I'll make him memorize it. It takes him
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:28
			only 2 years.
		
00:30:29 --> 00:30:31
			Let this blessing be in his heart or
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:32
			her heart. And by the way,
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:34
			Hafidul Quran,
		
00:30:35 --> 00:30:37
			you know, it was, said to, I think,
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:39
			Al Hasan al Basri. He was told, this
		
00:30:39 --> 00:30:41
			man is Hafidul Quran. He said, no.
		
00:30:41 --> 00:30:43
			He is not a Hafid Al Quran. The
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:44
			Quran is.
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:48
			The Quran protect him.
		
00:30:49 --> 00:30:51
			Is to memorize, it's also to protect in
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:53
			the Arabic language. So if you go there
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:55
			and I've seen it also, I see it
		
00:30:55 --> 00:30:57
			in Africa, actually I've been there, There is
		
00:30:57 --> 00:30:59
			so much stuff. You go to South Africa
		
00:30:59 --> 00:30:59
			special,
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:03
			assume there's an emphasis on memorizing the Quran.
		
00:31:03 --> 00:31:05
			Keep it. Because now people is gonna come
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:07
			and tell you, don't memorize,
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:09
			understand, and then we lose both.
		
00:31:10 --> 00:31:12
			So let's keep that, but can I have
		
00:31:12 --> 00:31:14
			them both in general in general?
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:16
			As you are in the journey of the
		
00:31:16 --> 00:31:16
			memorization,
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:19
			it's a journey. Look at the word I
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:21
			said. As you go on, as when you
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:23
			finish because when you finish, it doesn't finish.
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:24
			You have to review.
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:27
			And then as you go there, one of
		
00:31:27 --> 00:31:30
			the ways to make the Quran solid
		
00:31:30 --> 00:31:31
			is to understand the meanings.
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:34
			And it will be very nice for mothers
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:37
			or parents or fathers is as your child
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:39
			you're viewing as you are reviewing with the
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:39
			child,
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:41
			you keep telling
		
00:31:41 --> 00:31:43
			him every day one verse, every day one
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:44
			verse.
		
00:31:44 --> 00:31:46
			And remember, in 10 years, how many verses?
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:47
			And then it will
		
00:31:48 --> 00:31:49
			change. But definitely,
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:51
			it will protect you, but it will not
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:53
			change you unless you know the meanings.
		
00:31:54 --> 00:31:57
			Sorry. Second part of the question. If I
		
00:31:57 --> 00:31:59
			memorize the Quran and I didn't review it
		
00:31:59 --> 00:32:00
			and I forget it,
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:03
			people always say you have to keep it
		
00:32:03 --> 00:32:05
			if you just get a chance. I don't
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:07
			say. She says the question is if I
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:08
			don't mem I memorize but I don't review,
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:11
			and if you don't review, it moves it
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:12
			runs out.
		
00:32:12 --> 00:32:13
			Runs, runs.
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:15
			You know what I say? And I don't
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:18
			like this thermal punishment. You know what I
		
00:32:18 --> 00:32:18
			say
		
00:32:19 --> 00:32:20
			to myself?
		
00:32:21 --> 00:32:23
			And I actually said it recently to somebody.
		
00:32:23 --> 00:32:25
			I said, what did you do that Allah
		
00:32:25 --> 00:32:27
			removed his words from your heart?
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:32
			Do you see the point? Change the relationship
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:33
			with Allah.
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:35
			Don't make it punishment.
		
00:32:36 --> 00:32:37
			It becomes so
		
00:32:39 --> 00:32:40
			lack of feelings.
		
00:32:41 --> 00:32:43
			You love Allah, you love his word, and
		
00:32:43 --> 00:32:45
			he gave it to you, and suddenly he
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:45
			decide.
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:48
			I don't want to say the word because
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:49
			it's painful.
		
00:32:49 --> 00:32:51
			You know what I'm saying? Somebody loves you,
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:53
			and then he keeps texting you,
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:55
			and suddenly stops.
		
00:32:55 --> 00:32:56
			He or she,
		
00:32:57 --> 00:32:57
			what happens?
		
00:32:58 --> 00:33:00
			Gonna say, what did I do?
		
00:33:01 --> 00:33:03
			Is he okay? She's okay? Okay. Now, they
		
00:33:03 --> 00:33:03
			are okay.
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:05
			So what did I do?
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:07
			That's how I say.
		
00:33:07 --> 00:33:10
			I said this something to somebody also recently,
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:12
			I I stopped seeing them in fajr.
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:14
			I was like, what happened?
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:17
			And they said, what do you say? I
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:19
			said, why doesn't Allah wants to see you
		
00:33:19 --> 00:33:20
			on the first row?
		
00:33:23 --> 00:33:25
			And they got the message. They said, it's
		
00:33:25 --> 00:33:26
			dunya.
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:30
			So this is how I look at it,
		
00:33:30 --> 00:33:32
			and I don't take it as an excuse.
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:34
			I'm not gonna I heard this, by the
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:37
			way. I'm not gonna memorize because I'm worried
		
00:33:37 --> 00:33:39
			if I am gonna forget. I was like,
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:41
			who are you dealing with?
		
00:33:41 --> 00:33:42
			You're dealing with Allah,
		
00:33:43 --> 00:33:44
			the generous.
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:47
			You want to memorize His words and you
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:49
			feel bad you're forgetting. He's not gonna give
		
00:33:49 --> 00:33:51
			it to you? He will. You know, change
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:54
			the way you you interact with Allah Subhanahu
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:56
			Wa Ta'ala from like I you don't deal
		
00:33:56 --> 00:33:58
			with Allah like you deal with me and
		
00:33:58 --> 00:33:59
			I deal with you.
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:00
			It's Allah.
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:03
			So absolutely start the journey. Keep do the
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:06
			memorization. Ask Allah to make you understand. He
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:08
			will. And if I die and I didn't,
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:09
			I'm on the journey.
		
00:34:09 --> 00:34:10
			He will reward you.
		
00:34:12 --> 00:34:14
			Thank you. Yes, please.
		
00:34:19 --> 00:34:20
			I don't know who was oh, I'm sorry.
		
00:34:20 --> 00:34:22
			Yeah. Please forgive me. You'll be next.
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:24
			Yeah. Go ahead.
		
00:34:40 --> 00:34:41
			Okay. So this is for the people who
		
00:34:41 --> 00:34:42
			doesn't know
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:45
			Arabic and you read the translation. That's a
		
00:34:45 --> 00:34:47
			challenge. That's why I'm gonna say this before
		
00:34:47 --> 00:34:49
			I answer. It's a very good question, by
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:51
			the way. For all of you who understand
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:51
			the Arabic,
		
00:34:52 --> 00:34:53
			this may sound hard,
		
00:34:54 --> 00:34:56
			but it's about time, it's Ramadan.
		
00:34:56 --> 00:34:57
			What is your excuse
		
00:34:58 --> 00:35:00
			in front of Allah
		
00:35:01 --> 00:35:03
			when you don't understand the Quran.
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:07
			And have a friend who doesn't know Arabi
		
00:35:07 --> 00:35:09
			and see the struggle they go through.
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:13
			I become this this this size when I'm
		
00:35:13 --> 00:35:14
			with my friends
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:17
			who they struggle to read, And which tafsir,
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:19
			and is that the right meaning?
		
00:35:20 --> 00:35:21
			And I was like, I read it.
		
00:35:23 --> 00:35:25
			For the children, start with 1 tafsir. I
		
00:35:25 --> 00:35:26
			always say this. Start with
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:29
			1, the simplest one, and even not with
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:30
			the children in general.
		
00:35:30 --> 00:35:32
			The what I found is one of the
		
00:35:32 --> 00:35:35
			easiest if you are starting from ground 0,
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:37
			You you know nothing about the Quran in
		
00:35:37 --> 00:35:39
			English. You start with
		
00:35:40 --> 00:35:42
			because it is translated, the 2.
		
00:35:43 --> 00:35:44
			And then you need to go a little
		
00:35:44 --> 00:35:46
			bit deeper, higher up, then you go to
		
00:35:47 --> 00:35:48
			because it's translated.
		
00:35:49 --> 00:35:50
			Now the the the thing what you need
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:52
			is you don't only need a translation, you
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:55
			need a good translation and easy to read
		
00:35:55 --> 00:35:57
			because that's the issue. So for example, Yusuf
		
00:35:57 --> 00:36:00
			Ali is one of the, like, landmark of
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:03
			Quran translation, but the language is very difficult.
		
00:36:03 --> 00:36:05
			He used Shakespearean English.
		
00:36:05 --> 00:36:05
			So
		
00:36:06 --> 00:36:08
			and. Right? There is also,
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:11
			god, I forgot the name whose 2 women
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:13
			actually did it. I I interviewed her in
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:15
			one of, on Tuesday program.
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:19
			What is the name of it? SubhanAllah. It's
		
00:36:19 --> 00:36:20
			2 women translate very easy.
		
00:36:22 --> 00:36:22
			International.
		
00:36:24 --> 00:36:25
			Right. Very easy.
		
00:36:26 --> 00:36:27
			And then as you go up,
		
00:36:28 --> 00:36:30
			what you need, you read
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:32
			Let's say this. I wanna know what does
		
00:36:32 --> 00:36:34
			this word mean. All praise to Allah, the
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:36
			Lord of the heavens and the earth. Okay.
		
00:36:36 --> 00:36:38
			That's the first level. Now I need to
		
00:36:38 --> 00:36:39
			go. What does praise me?
		
00:36:40 --> 00:36:42
			What does Allah mean? But I'm not gonna
		
00:36:42 --> 00:36:44
			go there unless I know the basics first.
		
00:36:44 --> 00:36:46
			So start with easy, and you go further,
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:48
			and you go further. I'll take one more
		
00:36:48 --> 00:36:49
			question, and we need to call it because
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:51
			I have so many things and so many
		
00:36:51 --> 00:36:53
			things afterward. Yes.
		
00:36:59 --> 00:36:59
			About
		
00:37:03 --> 00:37:05
			Yeah. Because I can't hear you well. If
		
00:37:06 --> 00:37:07
			anybody needs to leave, feel free.
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:10
			I know it's getting late, but if we
		
00:37:10 --> 00:37:11
			just can leave quietly.
		
00:37:12 --> 00:37:13
			Yes. Go ahead. Okay.
		
00:37:15 --> 00:37:17
			I want to refer to what you, I
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:18
			want you to speak about
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:19
			the
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:22
			personality trait that you spoke about the beginning
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:22
			when you said.
		
00:37:25 --> 00:37:26
			Yeah. How do we reconcile
		
00:37:27 --> 00:37:29
			that with, Mandra Aminkom,
		
00:37:31 --> 00:37:34
			And also just another part is how do
		
00:37:34 --> 00:37:37
			we ensure that we are not perceiving other
		
00:37:37 --> 00:37:39
			people as or not oppressing them with our
		
00:37:39 --> 00:37:40
			thoughts,
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:42
			when we take when we decide to take
		
00:37:42 --> 00:37:43
			a step back? Okay.
		
00:37:44 --> 00:37:46
			So it's a very complicated question. Let's let
		
00:37:46 --> 00:37:48
			me try to make it easy and answer
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:49
			it in a short one. So
		
00:37:53 --> 00:37:55
			take pardon as your character. Right? And then
		
00:37:55 --> 00:37:57
			enjoin what is good and stay away from
		
00:37:57 --> 00:37:59
			the ignorance. And then she said, well, how
		
00:37:59 --> 00:38:01
			can I reconcile this with
		
00:38:02 --> 00:38:04
			whenever you see
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:05
			a you see what?
		
00:38:06 --> 00:38:08
			Something is rejected. This has nothing to do
		
00:38:08 --> 00:38:09
			with this.
		
00:38:09 --> 00:38:11
			This is a complete 2 different things.
		
00:38:11 --> 00:38:13
			The verse if you read this verse of
		
00:38:13 --> 00:38:15
			Surat Al Araf, read the commentary on it's
		
00:38:15 --> 00:38:17
			a story about Sayyidina Umar. And I'm gonna
		
00:38:17 --> 00:38:19
			do it quickly so you understand the meaning.
		
00:38:19 --> 00:38:21
			So Sayid Nama was in his majlis, all
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:24
			the major sahaba and Badri'in, everybody. And then
		
00:38:24 --> 00:38:27
			one of the companion of Sayyidina Umar, his
		
00:38:27 --> 00:38:29
			uncle came and he said, I want you
		
00:38:29 --> 00:38:30
			to get me to meet Sayyidina
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:34
			Umar. So he entered with his uncle. His
		
00:38:34 --> 00:38:36
			uncle in front of everybody, imagine this, stood
		
00:38:36 --> 00:38:38
			and said to Sayed Na'am, you are this,
		
00:38:38 --> 00:38:40
			you are that, you are not fair. You
		
00:38:40 --> 00:38:42
			name it, he said it. And you can
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:44
			imagine what happened to Sayyid Nama.
		
00:38:44 --> 00:38:46
			His face changed.
		
00:38:46 --> 00:38:47
			The Sahabi
		
00:38:47 --> 00:38:48
			knows the Quran
		
00:38:49 --> 00:38:52
			well and he understood his face. Looked at
		
00:38:52 --> 00:38:53
			him and says,
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:58
			Look how he spoke to him. Allah said
		
00:38:59 --> 00:39:00
			to
		
00:39:01 --> 00:39:02
			you, he's an ignorant.
		
00:39:03 --> 00:39:04
			And they say,
		
00:39:05 --> 00:39:06
			They didn't say a word.
		
00:39:06 --> 00:39:09
			So if somebody stood up now and said
		
00:39:09 --> 00:39:10
			something really bad,
		
00:39:11 --> 00:39:14
			if I am a woman who really practice
		
00:39:14 --> 00:39:15
			this, I'm gonna say,
		
00:39:16 --> 00:39:18
			You know what? You could be right,
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:21
			and may Allah forgive me, then I am.
		
00:39:21 --> 00:39:23
			Versus somebody come here and make a lot
		
00:39:23 --> 00:39:24
			of noises,
		
00:39:25 --> 00:39:27
			right, not about me, just interrupting.
		
00:39:27 --> 00:39:29
			My Amr ibn Ma'ruf, I have to say,
		
00:39:29 --> 00:39:31
			Jazaqqala Khair, can we talk about this later
		
00:39:31 --> 00:39:32
			on?
		
00:39:32 --> 00:39:34
			Because you're disturbing the other. Did you see
		
00:39:34 --> 00:39:37
			the difference? Amrul Maroof is a complete different.
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:40
			And by the way, Amrul Maroof enjoying good
		
00:39:40 --> 00:39:41
			is not an individual.
		
00:39:42 --> 00:39:44
			It's usually collective. It's usually
		
00:39:45 --> 00:39:48
			the people with authority unless in your home.
		
00:39:48 --> 00:39:50
			But if you walk in the streets and
		
00:39:50 --> 00:39:52
			you see something bad, you should not go
		
00:39:52 --> 00:39:52
			and tell everybody,
		
00:39:53 --> 00:39:54
			but you have to
		
00:39:55 --> 00:39:57
			the weakest one in your but if you
		
00:39:57 --> 00:39:58
			are in Sala and somebody next to you,
		
00:39:58 --> 00:40:00
			for example, made a mistake,
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:02
			they have to think very nicely how I'm
		
00:40:02 --> 00:40:03
			gonna tell her.
		
00:40:03 --> 00:40:05
			Like somebody happened to me yesterday.
		
00:40:05 --> 00:40:08
			Right? She actually said, salaam. She me and
		
00:40:08 --> 00:40:09
			her entered late.
		
00:40:09 --> 00:40:11
			So the imam finished, and, of course, she
		
00:40:11 --> 00:40:13
			have to stand up and continue. And she
		
00:40:13 --> 00:40:15
			said, salaam, salaam. She prayed only 1.
		
00:40:15 --> 00:40:17
			So now it's like the question. I'm gonna
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:17
			do
		
00:40:18 --> 00:40:20
			before she take it because you already have,
		
00:40:20 --> 00:40:22
			and I want everyone to know this.
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:30
			Let's the way you're enjoying good be in
		
00:40:30 --> 00:40:31
			a good way, and let it not be
		
00:40:31 --> 00:40:33
			in a bad way. So you really have
		
00:40:33 --> 00:40:34
			to look at her and says, you know
		
00:40:34 --> 00:40:35
			what?
		
00:40:36 --> 00:40:38
			You're like me, you know, we come late,
		
00:40:38 --> 00:40:39
			may Allah forgive us. It was this and
		
00:40:39 --> 00:40:41
			this and this. Just wanna let you know,
		
00:40:41 --> 00:40:42
			were you a traveler?
		
00:40:43 --> 00:40:46
			You have to make a conversation first. And
		
00:40:46 --> 00:40:47
			then you said, you know what? Usually, if
		
00:40:47 --> 00:40:50
			we come late and we get only 1,
		
00:40:50 --> 00:40:52
			we have to stand up. We say salah,
		
00:40:52 --> 00:40:54
			and continue. Alhamdulillah, she listened.
		
00:40:55 --> 00:40:57
			May Allah reward everybody
		
00:40:58 --> 00:40:59
			for
