There's a couple of good news, I want

00:00:02 --> 00:00:03

you to all know one thing, is when

00:00:03 --> 00:00:05

Allah wants something to happen, He makes it

00:00:05 --> 00:00:05

happen.

00:00:06 --> 00:00:09

And this is beyond literally, so inshallah we're

00:00:09 --> 00:00:12

going to have a couple of things in

00:00:12 --> 00:00:13

Jannah Institute.

00:00:14 --> 00:00:16

So we're going to have the following, as

00:00:16 --> 00:00:18

I told you when we did the summer

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

intensive, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala showed us

00:00:19 --> 00:00:21

how much there is a need for learning,

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

and how much there is an interest in

00:00:24 --> 00:00:26

learning, which is the two things, it's not

00:00:26 --> 00:00:28

only the need but also there is interest.

00:00:28 --> 00:00:30

So we decided the following, there's going to

00:00:30 --> 00:00:33

be an after-school program for the youth,

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

Islamic studies, not Quran, it's not Tajweed, it's

00:00:36 --> 00:00:39

Islamic studies, and we're going to actually divide

00:00:39 --> 00:00:39

them.

00:00:39 --> 00:00:40

This is one of the things we learned

00:00:40 --> 00:00:44

from the summer intensive, so there will be

00:00:44 --> 00:00:46

a high schooler and there will be a

00:00:46 --> 00:00:46

middle schooler.

00:00:46 --> 00:00:48

I don't have younger yet, I don't have

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

space, unfortunately.

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

Allah will give us inshallah bigger.

00:00:52 --> 00:00:53

So we will have two days a week,

00:00:53 --> 00:00:55

it's going to be five to seven.

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

Alhamdulillah we just finalized the teachers, we finalized

00:00:58 --> 00:01:02

the curriculum and everything.

00:01:02 --> 00:01:05

So Monday and Wednesday will be the boys

00:01:05 --> 00:01:09

five to seven, the high schooler one and

00:01:09 --> 00:01:12

the middle schooler, and Tuesdays and Thursdays will

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

be the girls, also five to seven.

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16

It's going to be serious, it's not going

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18

to be scary, but it's not going to

00:01:18 --> 00:01:18

be halaqa.

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

Those of you who were with me in

00:01:21 --> 00:01:24

the morning, you've seen the difference between a

00:01:24 --> 00:01:25

halaqa and a class.

00:01:25 --> 00:01:27

There's a huge difference between a class and

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28

a halaqa.

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

Class is you are, we call it passive

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

learning, you're just listening.

00:01:32 --> 00:01:34

But in the class, number one is an

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36

interactive, and number two, there is work you

00:01:36 --> 00:01:37

have to do.

00:01:37 --> 00:01:38

And this is what we need for the

00:01:38 --> 00:01:41

youth also, to take it more seriously, but

00:01:41 --> 00:01:42

it's also going to be fun.

00:01:42 --> 00:01:45

It's a one-year program, so starting mid

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47

-September in two weeks inshallah, and we will

00:01:47 --> 00:01:49

end up with June, same breaks of the

00:01:49 --> 00:01:52

school and the same breaks for the national

00:01:52 --> 00:01:53

holidays, all is that.

00:01:53 --> 00:01:56

Okay, and I'm going to say this, and

00:01:56 --> 00:01:57

I know I'm going to say it, and

00:01:57 --> 00:01:58

I know it's going to happen, but I

00:01:58 --> 00:02:00

still have to say it.

00:02:02 --> 00:02:05

The class size is very small, and it's

00:02:05 --> 00:02:07

not going to be online, so if you

00:02:07 --> 00:02:10

are interested, don't leave it to the last

00:02:10 --> 00:02:12

day, because once the class is full, I

00:02:12 --> 00:02:15

cannot accept, where will I put them?

00:02:15 --> 00:02:17

And the students has a right, so if

00:02:17 --> 00:02:19

you are planning, you have all the information,

00:02:19 --> 00:02:22

we just finalized it, so if you have

00:02:22 --> 00:02:25

all the information is outside, go ahead and

00:02:25 --> 00:02:25

register.

00:02:25 --> 00:02:28

All the details, everything, it's actually on our

00:02:28 --> 00:02:30

website, so maybe not today and tomorrow, the

00:02:30 --> 00:02:32

whole detail is going to be very soon.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34

So that's number one, and then once this,

00:02:35 --> 00:02:36

probably by the end of September, we will

00:02:36 --> 00:02:39

be, I will be teaching a serious class

00:02:39 --> 00:02:41

for serious students.

00:02:41 --> 00:02:44

It's on Wednesday night, because this is for

00:02:44 --> 00:02:47

the people who work and people who can't

00:02:47 --> 00:02:49

come in the morning, and this will be

00:02:49 --> 00:02:51

a six-week course covering subjects, and you

00:02:51 --> 00:02:53

will get this, this is probably by the

00:02:53 --> 00:02:55

end of September, but the one that's starting

00:02:55 --> 00:02:56

next week is the Year of Knowledge.

00:02:57 --> 00:02:59

The Year of Knowledge is mainly an online

00:02:59 --> 00:03:01

program, which I've been going for, this is

00:03:01 --> 00:03:03

the fourth year, but Alhamdulillah, now we have

00:03:03 --> 00:03:04

a space, so it's going to be hybrid.

00:03:05 --> 00:03:07

Hybrid meaning some of the classes, you will

00:03:07 --> 00:03:09

take it online, because the teachers are not

00:03:09 --> 00:03:09

here.

00:03:10 --> 00:03:12

One of them is in Malaysia, and one

00:03:12 --> 00:03:13

of them is actually in Tennessee, the three

00:03:13 --> 00:03:14

ones I teach.

00:03:15 --> 00:03:18

The onsite is very limited, I have only

00:03:18 --> 00:03:23

two left, because this is serious classes, so

00:03:23 --> 00:03:28

the online, online we have close to 60,

00:03:28 --> 00:03:29

and I closed it.

00:03:29 --> 00:03:32

Normally we take more, but again, but I

00:03:32 --> 00:03:34

closed it last week, and today who reached

00:03:34 --> 00:03:36

out and they wanted to join, and I

00:03:36 --> 00:03:37

said, of course, yes.

00:03:38 --> 00:03:41

You know Sean King, the one who just

00:03:41 --> 00:03:44

accepted Islam, his wife, and I was like,

00:03:44 --> 00:03:45

for sure we'll take her.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:47

Allah will put barakah.

00:03:47 --> 00:03:50

So please, the reason I'm saying is, if

00:03:50 --> 00:03:52

you are thinking and you're planning, do it

00:03:52 --> 00:03:55

ASAP, don't do it the last day, because

00:03:55 --> 00:03:57

it is very hard for me to say

00:03:57 --> 00:03:57

no.

00:03:58 --> 00:04:00

Allah, my witness, because how can somebody really

00:04:00 --> 00:04:02

wants to learn, and you tell them no,

00:04:03 --> 00:04:06

but also there's logistics, and the people who

00:04:06 --> 00:04:07

register, they have rights.

00:04:07 --> 00:04:09

So these are the main three things, these

00:04:09 --> 00:04:12

are the 24, 25-year programs, and then

00:04:12 --> 00:04:14

we have the Women Conference.

00:04:15 --> 00:04:17

The Women Conference is exactly in four weeks.

00:04:18 --> 00:04:21

Saturday the 28th, you have the lineup of

00:04:21 --> 00:04:23

these teachers, of these scholars, and it's going

00:04:23 --> 00:04:26

to be a very controversial subject, but we

00:04:26 --> 00:04:28

have to start talking about the controversial ones,

00:04:28 --> 00:04:30

and it is faith and feminism.

00:04:31 --> 00:04:32

Can they live together?

00:04:33 --> 00:04:37

And it's 12 and above, 12 and above,

00:04:37 --> 00:04:39

and there will be babysitting, or there will

00:04:39 --> 00:04:40

be child care.

00:04:40 --> 00:04:42

It's going to be in Garden Grove, because

00:04:42 --> 00:04:43

of the space.

00:04:44 --> 00:04:46

And we already have one-fourth filled.

00:04:47 --> 00:04:50

So again, if you're planning, don't come at

00:04:50 --> 00:04:51

the door like every year.

00:04:53 --> 00:04:55

Subhanallah, every year, at the door and says,

00:04:55 --> 00:04:58

well, I, whatever, where will I put you?

00:04:58 --> 00:05:00

So again, here, the registration is open.

00:05:00 --> 00:05:03

The registration here is open, so go ahead

00:05:03 --> 00:05:05

if you are interested, and I'm planning, inshallah,

00:05:06 --> 00:05:06

it will help.

00:05:06 --> 00:05:10

Next day, Sheikh Aisha Prime is staying, so

00:05:10 --> 00:05:12

I'm going to do one for the youth

00:05:12 --> 00:05:14

only, question and answers.

00:05:14 --> 00:05:15

It's going to be me and her only.

00:05:15 --> 00:05:16

No mothers.

00:05:17 --> 00:05:18

And it's going to be there.

00:05:18 --> 00:05:19

This one is not finalized yet.

00:05:19 --> 00:05:21

I'm still working on it.

00:05:21 --> 00:05:23

So Alhamdulillah, Rabbul Alameen, Allah is opening a

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25

lot of khair here, and the only way,

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

and I said the only way, you are

00:05:27 --> 00:05:32

really grateful to Allah is by taking these

00:05:32 --> 00:05:33

opportunities.

00:05:33 --> 00:05:34

Don't say next year.

00:05:35 --> 00:05:36

Don't say, well, let's see how it's going

00:05:36 --> 00:05:37

to go.

00:05:37 --> 00:05:39

Don't do that, because once, you don't know

00:05:39 --> 00:05:41

what will happen next year, whether you or

00:05:41 --> 00:05:43

me, I'm here, you're here, we're moving, Allah

00:05:43 --> 00:05:44

knows.
