Respected Qalam,
under Bal Mufti Ismail Musa Menck,
members
of the executive of the Muslim Judicial Council,
members of the Imara,
the honorable
parents of the 2 young sisters and ladies
who have graduated here this evening.
Ladies and gentlemen,
elders, brothers and sisters, and honorable students,
I guarantee you that I will not be
too long because
it is a challenging affair
that kept our emotions
for the last 45 minutes
and perhaps maybe after such
tense moments,
the muscles needs to be relaxed
and I suspect
there's some good food on its way.
But if you bear with me with
another 2, 3 minutes,
I will be
short.
Every time that the mosque in Cape Town
is inaugurated
and opened,
we have reason to celebrate the vision of
a great lady by the name of Sartifan
Beqab.
And I think it is time that the
Muslim community dedicate an occasion and declared this
lady the first lady of the Muslim community.
And every time
when a mosque is open, we celebrate the
deep vision of Sarki Fandekar.
A lady who never graduated from the School
of Economics at UCT,
Neither did she graduate from UWC,
the law faculty,
but she understood the deep vision.
She understood
that in her unselfish
and her generous contribution
to the whatof
property
of the Omar al Masjid,
that on the day of Yawmul Qiyamah,
the scales of Sarki Fandekah
will qualify
a ticket into Jannah, inshallah.
From Sarki Fandekah,
when we listen this evening to this young
lady,
Aveda,
we are compelled
to journey our history.
And every time
that we celebrate the abilities of our young
children,
we have to ask
the colonial masters of yesteryear
and the apartheid regime of yesteryear,
when will you ever learn?
Indeed,
they never learn.
Our history tells us that every time
that when we listen to the young lady
who have recited Aveda,
we celebrate the deep vision of Sarki Fandekab.
And from Sarki Fandekab
bin Bekaab to Hafidah Mu'alima'aisha
series
is a long history to journey
in celebration
of the deep vision of a lady.
And when we listen to
Sheikh Abrahaman
Sadeem
in fact,
it was barely a week ago when we
listened to the chef at the masjid of
Sheikh Ibrahim.
And every time that we listen to Sheikh
Abrahaman, we listen to the maturity of the
voice.
But again, in the recitation of Sheikh Abrahaman,
there's a lot only the beauty of the
voice,
but also politically and historically today,
we can tell the political masters of yesterday,
you incarcerated
Tuamguru on Robben Island.
And tonight,
from Robben Island to Scarborough,
we celebrate the recitation
of the melonious voices of the Quran.
At the time
that the colonial masters
wanted to kill the growth of the Quran.
Tuanguru
incarcerated
for approximately
14 years on Rurban Island.
Can you imagine for a moment
how did Thuan Gourou recite the Quran?
He recited the Quran
whilst under incarceration.
Between the tiny four walls of his prison
cell, there was no audience.
But there was saber and there was foresight
because
one day there will be an occasion
that we will have
the likes of Sheikh Abdul Rahman,
who will read the Quran in the most
melodious voice
between the history that we journeyed
from slavery to freedom,
from Robben Island to Safran.
We take our history for granted,
and sometimes we take ourselves for granted.
And we don't attach enough pride
to our history.
Allow me to make a very nasty example.
I've been asking the community for the last
2 weeks,
when we witnessed the ceremony
of Michael Jackson.
I was
impressed with
the reverend that spoke at Jackson's ceremony.
But if people can celebrate Michael Jackson
and remember him for his moonwalk even though
he never reached the moon,
If we can celebrate the character of people
in the music world,
why can't we celebrate the dignity and the
honor of the Quran?
I think this community have a problem.
It seems not to identify
abilities and leadership in our community. And strange
enough,
a lot of things in our community was
achieved by individual people.
When you talk about the Masajid in Cape
Town, a 150
Masajid,
you have to talk about the individual vision
of Santi Fandakkad.
If you talk about liberation in the Quran
and the preservation of the Quran,
you have to talk about Tuam
Guru.
If you have to talk about the father
of Islam and the resistance
against the colonial masters, you have to talk
about Tuam Yusuf.
And so you can journey the names of
individuals
and will find that this community will do
themselves proud.
Only we have one occasion
where we celebrate the achievements
of individual people that brought us to where
we are tonight.
We celebrate the success
of Darul Fookhan,
the success of the 2 ladies.
Can you imagine that this is an unstoppable
movement?
I, myself and Sheikh Ibrahim, returned, approximately a
week ago from the Middle East.
In one of the meetings in Istanbul under
the auspices of Sheikh Yousuf Badawi,
the representative
of the International Union for the Muslim Scholars,
of which we are members,
from the Gaza stood up and he gave
a report on the Gaza.
Gaza stood up and he gave a report
on the Gaza. Sir, I want the world
to know that the people in the Gaza
is now more equipped
to handle the Israelis.
We are now more powerful than prior to
the 22 day war against us.
And I must tell you that for a
moment, I thought
that he was talking of the ability that
they have enhanced, the Katyusha rockets
or the Tassar rockets.
And then to our great surprise,
with great
enemies of the man said,
our preparation to challenge
the Zionist
is more of our children and people are
becoming half in the
The Zionists have spent the last 60 years
in trying to confuse the minds
of weak
souls in the Muslim Ummah.
Weak souls even amongst Palestinians,
except for those
let Sheikh Hassan describe
that the Quran have become part of their
blood.
And so our congratulations
tonight to Muhammadu Ma'isha
after 10 years of strife.
Now, Jamaican, if we have seen the caliber
here
tonight, and we see the
exhibition
of and
your beautiful faces here,
I am sure that when we see value
and African
that we don't want to put our money
where our deed is.
Hafiz students
always have to go for the crumbs.
Imams and all of us always have to
go for the crumbs.
The imbalances in our communities must be challenged.
We build mosque,
and we beautify the domes and the binarats
that cannot defend Islam.
Show me in the entire history of Islam
where a beautiful domes ever defended Islam.
In fact, in the painful history of Andalus
in Spain,
many masajid were turned into something else.
A million rand on the minaret
and 2,000,000 rand on the mosque carpet.
But the same budget is not spent for
the mind that must make subdued on the
carpet.
And so we have to engage the list
of priorities
and say
that the prestige
tonight
belongs to all of us,
and that we will begin to seriously spend
our money
so that institutions who produce for 5th
must not begin to speculate on the 24th
of every month.
Will everybody be there
to pay their dues
so that the school can function?
And under an economic crisis today,
many business institutions
have to think about closing business.
Half of its schools and madrasas and massages
have been going through an economic crisis
for the last 300 years, and it has
never closed.
And it will never close.
Le'an nafihi and barakah,
because we survive from the barakah
of Allah Subhanahu
wa ta'ala.
I pray that this institute will grow from
strength to strength inshallah.
And the seed that has been planted on
the eve of 10th anniversary
will produce more hafilaat inshallah
so that the future of this
will be well protected and well safeguarded inshallah.
Allah reward us all and all our duas
for the success of Dawud
