00:00:04 --> 00:00:06
			One thing that would displease Allah
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:10
			is if Sapiens Institute becomes brand focused. It
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11
			is then
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:13
			I would have to resign. Let me explain.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			I've been involved in Dua for over 20
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:18
			years Alhamdulillah and a lot has changed since
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			then. Trying to commit to a full time
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22
			job, managing my own Duaa website, making my
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:23
			own posters,
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:26
			setting up and paying for my own debates.
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:29
			The global dua sector has now raised 1,000,000
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:31
			of pounds. People now do dua with a
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			full time job. Alhamdulillah,
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			this is amazing
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:38
			and more is needed. Yet with new opportunities,
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:41
			trials and tests appear. 1 of the greatest
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42
			trials
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:45
			is that of fame and wealth. The Messenger
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam was clear about
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:49
			this. He said,
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:51
			2 hungry wolves
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			roaming freely among a flock of sheep
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:58
			are less destructive to them than the passion
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:01
			of a man for wealth and high status
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			are to his religion. I regularly remind myself
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			that the vision for Islam is bigger than
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:07
			the organization
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			and the organization
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:13
			is bigger than the individual. The danger with
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			brands is that there'll always be a potential
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:18
			conflict of interest between the best interest of
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:21
			Islam and the brand's success. The reality is
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:23
			Islam success
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:27
			is our success. Following Allah's guidance in what
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:30
			ensures Islam success is what pleases Allah. This
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			is one of the reasons why Sapiens Institute
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:36
			strategic focus involves developing and supporting individuals
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			and organizations
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			to intellectually share and defend Islam. This is
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			why you will not see our name or
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:47
			logo behind various organizations that we help develop
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:50
			and support. And this is why we created
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:51
			the Visionaries
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:55
			and Lighthouse Mentoring. The Visionaries is a project
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			that we founded in collaboration with Sabeel
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:59
			to inspire within leaders,
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:01
			preachers and influentials
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:06
			and Allah centric and Aqira centric vision,
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:07
			and to help
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:08
			them internalize
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:11
			14 principles from the Quran and Sunnah to
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:15
			achieve true success in the doubt. Lighthouse mentoring
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			service is a free service
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			that provides private one to 1 mentoring sessions
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:21
			for ex
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			Muslims, new Muslims,
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:25
			people with destructive doubts and mentors preachers,
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:26
			imams
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			and influentials
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29
			on how to make an impact
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			in the sector. Many of them are now
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			succeeding
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			and you may never know the role we
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			had to play. You can play a vital
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:40
			role in ensuring Islam success is our success
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			and that Islam success comes first,
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:44
			not our brands.
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:45
			Alhamdulillah,
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			we have now over 1,200
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:51
			and 50 defenders this Ramadan so far. Our
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:54
			target is 2,000. We are asking you in
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:56
			the last blessed 10 days of this month
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			to be one of the 2,000 defenders
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:01
			to donate just £10 per month to ensure
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:02
			this great work expands
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:03
			and continues.
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:06
			The reward you will receive from supporting the
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:08
			next a 100,000 individuals
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:10
			and hundreds of organizations
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:14
