Before we start the kutva,
unless you're
over the age of 70
or disabled
or injured,
Come forward.
So the description of the munafiqeen in the
Quran,
It's like they're just wood stacked on wood.
So you see, like, people's wood sheds, there's
wood stacked back against the wall. Of course,
if people are not able to sit up,
that's fine. But for those who are able
to, please come forward.
Alhamdulillahi
rabbilalamin,
was salatuas salamu ala Surihi Sayedina Muhammad
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
in the Quran only mentions the Nabi Sallallahu
Alaihi wa sallam's Mubarak name four times. You
only find the mention of the Nabi Sallallahu
sallallahu alaihi sallam's name, Muhammad
alaihi salatu as salam
4 times.
This is something that is strange and surprising
to many people, Muslim and people of other
faiths alike.
Why? Because they assume the entire book is
about him, Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, and in some
way or another, it is, but that's a
different discussion
for a different time in a different place.
Rather the
who are named in the book of Allah
Ta'ala, the prophets who are named in the
book of Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala,
are mainly the prophets that people are familiar
with from the stories of the Bible. The
most mentioned prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam by name
is Sayidam Musa. May the peace and blessings
of Allah ta'ala be upon him.
He is mentioned the most
out of all of the Mbeyah, alayhi, musalatu
al salam, and there's a hikma in that.
There's a hikma in that. Why? Because Musa,
alayhi, salalatu al salam,
his story in his mithal is the mithal
of a nabi and of a qaum, and
of a people, a nation of people who
are completely
overwhelmed by a
materialistic
and merciless tyrannical enemy.
And our prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam is the
nabi of Aker Usaman.
He is the prophet of the end of
times. He is the last prophet, no prophet
will come after him. And there's a hikmah
in that because as the end of times
approach,
this is what the
state of the believers will be. That all
of the hard work, and all of the
construction, and all of the
building of institutions,
spiritual, physical, political, social, economical,
all of these institutions
Nabi alaihi salatu wa salam gave instructions for
the Sahaba, radiAllahu ta'ala, anhum, personally built. With
time, all of these institutions will be dismantled.
Some of them piece by piece, some of
them in one shock, some of them through
decay, some of them through our fault, some
of them through the planning of others. They'll
be dismantled. And the prophet
says this in his that
when the Dajjal comes,
it's going to be such a state where
he will overpower the people to the point
where the one who believes will will will
will go hungry, and the one who disbelieves
will eat. The one who disbelieves will have
a job, the one who disbelieves will enjoy
a quiet and peaceful life, and the one
who believes in Allah and His Rasulullah
alaihi wa sallam will be tortured and will
be not left with any respite at all,
not left with any respite at all. Rather,
they will be
of such people that when they pass by
the graves, they will look at the inmates
of the graves and say,
woe is me. I wish that I was
already in the grave. Life will have lost
its sweetness for those people. That's the type
of
difficulty and the type of test and trial
that'll be put through. May Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala vouchsafe us that we never see such
days, and if we're forced to see such
days, may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala give us
and give us firmness in our iman, that
that difficulty and that trial and tribulation be
a source of reward for us in the
hereafter,
and not something that steals our iman away
from us at gunpoint.
But we talk about Sayid Musa Alaihi Salatu
Asam al Firaun, and how they dealt with
each other, what the coping tactics were, and
the coping mechanisms that Saydul Musa had with,
with the overwhelming tyrannical force of Firaun at
a later time.
Because Ramadan is coming. Yes. Ramadan is coming.
You say Ramadan is coming, it's several months
away. It's coming.
A person who is going to do well
in Ramadan is the one who practices and
who prepares from today. Right now the month
of jamadulullah
or sorry. Jamadul Gukra
is is is well underway after it is
going to be the sacred month of Rajab,
which is sacred month. It's a sunnah of
the Prophet
to fast and increase one's good deeds in
the sacred months. The month after that, Shaban.
Say that,
she narrates that she never saw the messenger
of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
fast an entire month
outside of Ramadan other than Shaban.
This is how the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
and his companions used to prepare.
So we prepare also by looking at themes
of the Quran because Ramadan is the
from amongst those people of hard determination,
from the Anbiya alayhi muslim,
whose determination is an inspiration to us, is
what? Sayyidina Nuh alaihis salatu alsalam, who is
mentioned in several surahs of the Quran, and
who also receives a surah that he is
himself named after. And we derive several lessons
from his. Example,
alayhi
salam.
Who is referred to in the English language
as Noah.
The story is very simple, and many people,
because of the simplicity of the story,
they gloss over it without paying too much
attention.
They said, yes. He came, he told people
to enter the din, they didn't. He built
a ship, a flood came in, wiped everybody
out, and he survived. In fact, the story
seems almost a bit comical to many people.
Why? Because it's
almost unbelievable.
It's almost unbelievable.
But the story of my friends is something
that is deep, and is something that has
much benefit that you and I will learn
from. Why? Because it's something that occurs again
and again in our lifetimes.
The reason that Sayyidina Nuh
story seems fantastic is because it occurs on,
or seemingly occurs on a world level.
That some someone comes and makes a claim,
and that claim is true, and nobody follows
it, and the entire world is destroyed because
of that. Now, as a side note, the
mufasirreen
of the Quran, the people who
make tafsir of the Quran and people who
interpret the Quran, they say that there's no
part of our aqeedah which requires a person
to believe that the flood of say say,
Saytanou alaihis salatu wa sama is a world
flood.
It's possible that it was local and it
just wiped out his palm, and that there
are other places in the world where people
didn't even hear about it or know about
it. This is a possibility. There's nothing
that suggest that that that a person who
doesn't believe that flood was a world flood
is not a Muslim. And further than that,
there are certain that may suggest that. But
by and large, the overwhelming majority of the
ulama
seem to, at very at the very minimum,
lean toward the flood being a world flood
that destroyed everybody other than sayt Anu and
those he carried with him on his ark.
And the story is, something that's amazing, it's
something that's epic. Right? There's
movies made about these things, by the way,
as a side note. To watch those movies
is completely haram. Islam, first of all, forbids
the physical depiction of any,
any of the Anbiya
to Islam,
and Islam also forbids the depiction of a
Muslim as a kafir, or a kafir as
a Muslim.
So what would it be to have a
kafir play a nabi?
It's completely,
it's something completely
far fetched, and something that's almost a blasphemy
in our, in our faith. And what's more
than that, if you're going to go and
learn your deen from, Hollywood,
Because everything a nebbi does is infallible. It's
everything a nebbi does, it's an that all
you're doing is putting your own iman into
fitna. All you're doing is putting your own
iman into a trial and tribulation.
Because you'll see things that are not true
on that screen, and then afterward you'll associate
them. Either you'll associate true untrue things with
a nabi of Allah
which
is a a a grave sin. In some
cases, it could be kufr. It can steal
your iman from you. And on the flip
side, something may be true, and you say,
oh, it's just a movie, and you don't
have tahdig, and that's also
an equal peril.
But forgetting the movie and coming back to
what? The book of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,
the sunnah of the Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.
In the Quran, it comes that say, Nanu
called his people
toward
toward what? Toward the worship of 1 God
for over
950 years. For 950 years, he is message,
he was sent, he lived a life after
that,
he was sent as a messenger for 950
years to his people. He lived a life
after that, and he lived a life before
that.
Knows best. But
it seems from the siak of the Quran,
the majority of the,
Sahaba radiAllahu ta'ala Anhum, not the Sahaba radiAllahu
a majority of them received their nabuh. They
received their prophethood when? At the age of
40 or something close to that. They received
their nabuh when they became grown men, not
when, not not before that. So you have
950
plus 40 plus some amount of life that
Sayyidina
Muhammad must have lived afterward. So he has
an extremely long life. But what we wanna
focus on is what? The 950 years of
work that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala put upon
him. Now anybody who has gone to a
gathering of family, or a gathering of
of friends or a gathering of relatives
and tried to do something simple.
There are some of us who are blessed
with very pious families. May Allah
increase
them in goodness and in in in in
in piety.
The rest of us, the majority of us
maybe, the rest of us, if anyone has
gone to a gathering of relatives
and tried to say, Hey, you know, it's
it's time for
Why don't we pray? Only to be disappointed
that you're the only one who prays, or
2 or 3 people come with you and
pray, the rest of the people say, Oh
yeah, I'll pray at home when I get
home. As if this is an excuse to
skip the jama'at, at least for the men,
Right? Anyone who has experienced small frustrations like
this, knows how difficult it is to call
the people toward the truth.
And the people of Nuh
comes to the athaar that their shirk was
what? Their shirk and their worshiping of other
than Allah was
what?
Inshallah, in the back, in the back. This
is the It's haram to talk. If you
wanna talk, you can leave the masjid
Just if you want to enter the masjid,
listen to the khutba, sit down and face
forward
If you want to talk, you can talk
outside. The salat is like the
the is like the salat. Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala says in his book,
Right? When the Quran is read then
listen to it and stay quiet so that
Allah may have mercy on you.
The tafsir of this ayah is what? Right?
Is when the Quran is being read in
the salat. Is
for when the Quran is being read in
the khutbah. It's a commandment of the book
of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. If a person
has a need, and there should be no
need, just like there's no need a person
should have that while they're praying. You know,
they need to take their phone call and
go outside,
just like that. I mean, fine. If somebody
is dying, then go and save their life.
Okay? If it's something less than that, it
can wait.
It can wait.
And just like that, the is
is similarly to be accorded with
with respect. It's to be accorded with respect.
The rahma of Allah ta'ala comes to you,
and it comes to me for it. It's
not for the benefit of anyone else, brothers
and sisters.
So Sayyidhanu alaihi sallam, the shirk of his
people was what?
Was that they used to have pious elders.
They used to have pious elders that used
to make the dhikr of Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala. They used to make dua. They used
to make salat. There were people people could
trust and come to benefit from their piety,
benefit from their hikmah, benefit from their guidance,
benefit from their
from their good manners and their good character,
benefit from their knowledge. The people could benefit
from them. And when these pious elders died,
what they did was in order to remember
them, they made they made statues, they chiseled
statues that are of the same face, in
the same form, in the same body as
these pious elders in order to remember them.
In order to remember them. And this is
before in our Ummah, the Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi
Wasallam,
he says in,
in in in in Sahih al Hadith, that
in this ummah, whoever makes a picture, whoever
makes a picture of somebody or an image
of somebody, the ulama have a difference of
opinion about what the particular meaning is. Is
it the meaning for a three-dimensional object, or
does it include 2 dimensional objects of animate
life as well? Right? But whoever makes a
picture of something, Allah
will, on the day of judgment,
task that person with putting a ruh inside
of that picture.
Just as if the person by making the
picture, as if they're irrigating the right of
the creator, and making a sort of mock
creation,
And Allah
is not pleased with that. And so they'll
be put in jahannam and asked to put
a rur into that into that picture, into
that image
that that that they made. And if they're
not able to, they won't be able to
leave jahannam, and they'll never be able to.
Who of us has the ability to create
a ruah from nothing?
And this is a mercy on this ummah.
This is why people shouldn't be too gung
ho about taking pictures of everything.
There's difference of opinion amongst the ulama, yes.
Malik considered the 2 dimensional pictures, 2 dimensional
images not to be what's meant by this
hadith. The Hanafi is considered to my knowledge,
we have Hanafi You can ask them as
well. But a great number of them, they
considered no, even 2 dimensional objects, even photographs
are. Some of them considered them to be
part of it.
But leaving the realm of discussion of the
fukaha
as a cultural matter, we should not keep
pictures up on the wall. We should not
keep If you wanna have a picture, have
it folded up. And it comes in the
hadith of the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, that
the angels of mercy that protect the iman
of the believers, they won't enter into a
room in which a picture is up. Why
is this a mercy on our ummah? The
mercy is for the same reason that the
home of Nuh alaihi wasalam was destroyed. What
happened? They used to keep these pictures of
these pious people in their
in their places where those pious people used
to sit. Those places where those pious people
used to sit, and where these images, and
where these statues used to be, they became
now temples and places of worship. People used
to come and remember them, and then because
of that remember Allah. One generation melts into
the next one, and then what ends up
happening is,
eventually the people will come and and and
ask the statues themselves for help. If you
think this is something far fetched, these types
of things happen in the Muslim world. By
Allah's father, He's protected us. We have many
problems as a Muslim community in America. By
and large, this is not one of our
problems, and we thank Allah
But what happened was little by little, they
did this, they did this until this turned
into what? It turned into shirk. It turned
into something that they would revere these idols
and these objects,
to the point of worship and they became
shirk. And when Saydna Nuh alaihis salatu wa
sama because look at how shaitan works. Right?
A person is not going to just say,
look stone. I'm gonna start asking it for
stuff. Because if that were the case, that
the stone were able to give you things,
then a person would have asked any stone.
Why is a particular stone worshiped and another
one isn't? There's no logic or rationality to
it. It's a trick of shaitan that shaitan
makes a fool out of certain people
through certain things,
with certain things to the exclusion of others.
And so what happens is, when Sayyidina Nuh
comes and says to the people, don't worship
these statues, don't worship these gods. The names
of which are actually transmitted in the Quran.
Right? When he tells them to not worship
them anymore. Even though they originally were pious
people, those names were pious, the names of
pious people.
What happens? They say, Who are you? Who
are you to tell us what to do?
Our forefathers, we found them venerating and worshiping
these Gods before before you. They were more
pious than you were. They were better than
you were. They were closer to Allah subhanahu
wa ta'ala than you were. You're jealous, you're
this, you're that. Shaitan messes with people's mind.
Right? Why? Because people fixate on details, they
don't fixate on principles.
The principle is what? That Allah is 1.
The principle is what? That they themselves worship
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. But the detail is
what? The little details are they were very
pious people. That doesn't mean that they were
just because they're close to Allah, doesn't mean
that they're Allah. And the thing is that
this sat in the hearts of these people
in such a bizarre way.
Right? There's a story, a small story. We
may have told it before, it's worth telling
again. A story of a village. There's a
village of people, this has probably happened not
once, happened countless number of times in the
history of mankind.
A small village of people that only have
one water source, one well, and, a dog
or some other animal trips and falls into
the well and dies in it.
And,
the you know, it happens in the maybe
mother of time, and the carcass by the
time the day rises and the next day
starts to bloat. So they say, oh, what
are we supposed to do? This is our,
you know, water we cook with, we drink
from, we make wudu from, we do all
these things. So, okay, we'll go ask the
imam. He seems like a relatively
intelligent
and and and and seditious figure. We'll ask
him, what what should we do? What should
we do about this issue? Imam says, what?
Right? Go read mukhtas al purduri. Take a
100 buckets of water out of the well.
Right? That's what just common sense. The water
ground water source will flow in and the
well will, by and large, clean itself out.
So they take a 100 buckets of water
out of the well. The well still smells
bad. Okay. We'll take another 100 buckets out.
Okay. They do it, the well still smells
bad.
Keep taking the buckets out, nothing is happening.
And then eventually the Imam asked, Did you
take the dog out yet? Oh no, you
didn't tell us to do that. Okay. Take
the dog out first, then take a 100
buckets out of the well.
Right? That dog,
that dog, it rots inside the well of
every one of our hearts. We shouldn't laugh
at them, say all stupid villagers. That dog
rots inside the well of every one of
our hearts.
It rots inside And once Allah gives tawfiq
for a person too,
Once Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala gives one of
us a tawfiq to take it out, then
it's a whole new world. Then you see
all sorts of things and understand, all sorts
of things that yesterday were impossible for you
to understand.
This was the dog that was rotting inside
the well of the hearts of
the Khawm of Saydhanu Right? 950 years, they
couldn't take it out. 900 years, they couldn't
take it out. 50 years, 9 they couldn't
take it out. Nobody followed him except for
very few people.
And so when the hukm of Allah
comes down that nobody is gonna follow you,
nobody is going to listen to you,
they're all going to be destroyed. They're all
going to be destroyed. Why? 950 years, people
have children, their children have children, even the
children and the children's children, all of them
are. You know, shaitan has them set so
tight on this program of kufr, that even
the children, there's no hope from them. Whether,
be our protection, that our young people can't
learn from the mistakes of the elders.
What happens
what happens is Allah says that these people
are going to be destroyed.
You make this ark. Right? This is a
very strange commandment, isn't it? You make this
ark, they're going to be swept up by
a flood. You make this ark, take pairs
of animals that you're going to need or
find useful with you. Take the people who
believe with you, who are just a couple
of people, very few people with you.
Take all of these people with you and
start building the ark.
Now, Sayna Nuh alaihi salatu wa sasam, if
he's going to build a ship that he's
gonna take animals with him and whatnot, And
the ship is a large ship. It's a
technological
marvel. It's a technological masterpiece. There are many
pieces of technology
or many inventions that we have, including language
and including many other things. We believe that
somehow the theory of evolution and blah blah
blah that we invented them, they're not invented
by us. They're gifts Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
gave us. These are things that come from
Jannah that are sent down to us, to
our species that no other species is privy
to. Even though other species, many of them
are are are are stronger than us and
faster than us, and some of them even
have bigger brains than we do. Allah send
these gifts specifically for us. Just like that
through
through revelation, Allah showed, say, how am I
gonna make this ship, which is a technological
masterpiece for the age that they live in.
So he's, you know, taking the particular kind
of wood, he's sawing it down in a
particular way, he's joining the planks in a
particular way, he's putting it together. It's a
long project.
It's a long project. We're building like a
small expansion to the,
Iqra School. It doesn't happen overnight.
It takes some time when the masjid was
being built. It took several years.
You can imagine that this thing, this is
a technological masterpiece, and saying the noor is
not a carpenter.
Right? This thing is going to take years
to make. It's gonna take what? Years to
make. And Allah Ta'ala says in his book,
every time the mushrikeen
would pass by him building the ship, they
would laugh at him.
Every time they would pass by him building
the ship, they would laugh at him.
Years, they would laugh at him. And what
would he say? He says, this day you're
laughing at me, one day I'll be laughing
at you. This day you're laughing at me,
one day I'll be laughing at you. Now
this is not a just an interesting story
that Hollywood can make a blockbuster out of
and then we go home and back to
work again on Monday. This is for you
and this is for me. Every time you
had pain because you're the only one who
prayed.
Every time you had difficulty because you're the
only one who is concerned about what you
eat and drink. Every time you had difficulty
and frustration because you're the only one who
stayed after to clean up in the event
no one else did. You're the one who
donates, and you know everybody else doesn't even
though everyone uses the masjid equally. Every time
you do something right, and you feel frustration
about it.
Think of what your frustration is, and what
the superlative frustration of the,
prophets were.
What the superlative frustration of Sayyidun Nuh was.
Allah Ta'ala says in his book that we
reveal to you the stories of the other
Prophets, so that we can make firm your
heart. Right? So we can make firm your
heart.
Think about what that must have meant. That
probably decades he was building this ship, and
they were making fun of him. Now tell
me something, if you know the flood is
coming, and some
ignorant person is making fun of you for
building the ship, what does it mean to
you? What should it mean to you? It
should mean nothing. If you're a person of
sound intellect, and person of sound it should
mean nothing to you. Say, man, this guy,
this cat is out of his mind. He's
making fun of me right now. That flood
is gonna come, it's gonna kill everybody. It's
gonna destroy their crops, it's going to destroy
their businesses, it's going to destroy everyone. If
he doesn't understand,
if she doesn't understand
why this arc is being built and why
the ship is being built, that is is
his problem. That is her problem.
Sayedna Imam Malik Rahimuallahu
ta'ala said that the sunnah of the Nabi
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam is for the people
of this Ummah, like the ark of Sayidna
Nuh alaihi salatu as salam was for his
people.
The sunnah of Sayidna Nabi Muhammad sallallahu
alaihi wasallam,
is for the people of this Ummah, like
the ark was for Sayna Nuh alaihi wasallam
because the flood will come and the flood
will not be the one that takes lives
or not be the one that destroys property,
rather the flood will be the one that
destroys hearts and the one that destroys the
arwah, the souls and the spirits of people.
And this is it's something
again and again, something born witness to again
and again. A young man came to me
who,
later on became a relatively dedicated student of
mine in a city that I used to
live in before.
He said to me, he said he said
he said, Sheikh, I have a problem. I
wanna talk to you privately about it. I
said, okay.
He said, we'll make a time. We'll talk
to him about it. He said he says
that, Sheikh, I have this problem. I go
to I go to college
and, girls give me a lot of attention.
He's handsome young man.
Right? So he said, girls give me a
lot of attention. Okay. What's your problem, man?
He said, no, no, no. You don't understand.
They give me a lot of attention, and
then they'll whisper things in my ear. They'll
write me a note that they want to
do something fash with me. And at first,
I used to appreciate the attention, and now
I'm scared because my father never committed Zina
before me, and and I never committed zina,
and I don't want to be a person
like that. I don't wanna be one of
those people.
I said,
this is an interesting problem. Most young men
probably would dream about having this
problem, but this is a problem. I barbeled
at the sincerity of the young man, that
how many people would come like this and
and ask for advice.
I said Allah, look at your sincerity. May
he look at your sincerity and accept from
you, your dua to keep you chaste and
keep you clean.
And so I told them, what what should
you do? Listen carefully. If you want to
solve this whole issue very quickly, listen carefully.
The sunnah of the Nabi sallallahu alaihi wasallam
is to grow a beard, not just a
goatee or whatever. That's the sunnah of French
people. Right? Unless that's the way it grows
on your face. That's how Allah created you.
But the sunnah is to leave the beard,
to let it go. Right?
There's so many different
that come in the hadith of the prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
And leave the beard, let it grow at
least until it's a fist length, and do
do me another favor. It's a it's a
a a a a a shial of the
pious people that they that they they they
cover their heads as well. Right? Some people
say, Oh brother, how can you tell me
about hijab? You know. I said, Okay. The
reason one of the reasons I feel comfortable
saying something is what? Because I myself have
not left my house without my head covered
since I was 18, except for probably 3
or 4 times at the max. And those
are out of necessity.
Once I did it, I once I did
it, I remember my older sister, she yelled
at me. She yelled at me. She said,
what is this? You pretend to be religious
and you leave your your your head bare
when you leave the house? I said, okay,
khalas, you know. She's she's a lawyer. She's
not even a student of knowledge. That's it.
The khalas. Right? I said, wear cover your
head when you go outside so people can
know that you're a person of deen.
Right? Cover your head so people can know
that you're a person of deen, and keep
a beard on your face. I promise you
people will stop writing you fahesh things and
saying fahesh things to you.
Okay.
He did it. He didn't grow the he
grew a small beard. He didn't grow the
beard to the fist length like I'd asked
him to, but he and he didn't cover
his head. But he said, what? He said,
I grew he calls me a month later,
he said, I grew a beard, people stop
talking to me. He said, Alhamdulillah, the girls
are not gonna be interested in me anymore.
I said, that's not the case, son. He
said, there's a different type of girl who'll
be interested in you now. A better type.
One that's better for you and that you'll
be happier with inshallah.
And that's what happened. Actually within
probably 4 months of that that first conversation,
he was married. He has beautiful children
Allah keep him, and people like him happy.
What's the point? Saytanu
built the ark, people made fun of him.
Who cares if they make fun of you?
It's your own najat you have to worry
about, your own salvation, because it's not funny
to drown,
spiritually or literally.
They made fun of him. The sunnah of
the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam
is the ark of the people of this
ummah. It will save them. It will save
them in this world, and it will save
them in the hereafter. The number
of of of of of likenesses and similar
truths and examples for this are something that
we don't have time. We've already exhausted the
time for our khutba today. But there there's
so many. The point that we think about
is what? Next time you do what's right
and people say something stupid to you, say
what? Say what? Say the Nuhadayasawl
listened to it for 950 years. And when
the flood came, it wasn't funny. When the
flood came, the people who wrote the ark
were saved and the people who didn't were
destroyed. May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala make the
ark of the sunnah of the Messenger of
Allah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam an ark for
us and save us. Even if we cannot
follow it completely, even if we have just
a small amount that we can hold firm
to. May Allah make it our none of
our if not our arc, at least our
life jacket that bails us out in this
world and the hereafter. May Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala give us nisba with thee.
That
follow-up their way from this ummah. May Allah
make us people of understanding and patience and
insulate us from what the opinions of others
are, and open us and expose us to
what the what the what the commandment and
how Allah feels about us, and make that
the most important thing in our lives. May
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala give all of us
so much.
