You're talking about social responsibility, what does that mean in practical form? And how can we inform that and help? Social Responsibility assistance starts from Allah subhanaw taala says Rajat Luca Wellmune Allah Nisa, this is very simple. The men, they are the maintainers into protectors and the guardians of women and children, because that is their responsibility based upon the strength, okay? And the resources, the law, he gave it to them, that social responsibility. And before we get real sophisticated, the men need to take care of this social responsibility, and the social responsibility of the sisters. Okay, the Prophet SAW sent, he said, all of you is a shepherd.

00:00:51 --> 00:01:36

All of us a shepherd and a guardian. And Allah subhanaw taala hold all of you are responsible for what is under your care. The ruler, you see, is responsible for the people under his authority. The man is responsible for his wife and his children and his family members. And the woman she's responsible for her husband's property in his absence, and herself and her children. And Allah will hold all of you responsible for that. So social responsibility begins there. It moves on as a ripple out into the society into development of resources and institutions and participating in the society like that, as we saw in Malaysia, I mean, as we saw in Indonesia, Muslims went to Indonesia, and

00:01:36 --> 00:01:53

because they were socially responsible, they were embraced and they were given the opportunity and eventually, the Muslims outnumbered everybody because of the resources. So this is my response to what social responsibility means and Allah knows best
