			Salam Alaikum
		

			Bismillah was Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah ala alihi wa sahbihi wa Salam o I feel horrible. It
says please do not touch the mics and that was the first thing I did
		

			when we put it back
		

			with the topic of this afternoon regarding the trust of Islam
		

			and when we read the description of the topic, it's regarding Dawa and being proud as a Muslim and
how to convey it to others and inshallah the way I will be delivering it by the will of Allah
subhanho wa Taala is through five tips regarding Dawa and handling this magnificent heavy load of
trust Allah has given all of us here in this room inshallah. So, are you guys ready in sha Allah,
say inshallah. Inshallah. Number one,
		

			you have to believe that conveying the message of Islam is your job.
		

			Also Allah allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said the little one knee well, he says convey about me
even if it's one verse one Hadith one statement, tell people about it. Go tell the one that you saw
making such the frustration how is the camera Okay perfect. The one who was making setup like this,
is that right or wrong?
		

			Wrong How is the right way?
		

			Yes, you should not make this touch the ground if you're making says that. Correct. So if you see
someone doing that, and you know for a fact that you learned in Sunday School at the Halacha and the
masjid your parents they told you, and you know this is the right way to go this way you should tell
them the little one Nivola wire. So we got that task in sha Allah with upmost respect as we add more
tips to be in your life subhanho wa taala. The second matter regarding handling this man and giving
Dawa to Allah subhanho wa Taala
		

			is to realize when you do that, it will help you out one more time. When I advise people to become
more practicing when I advise people to correct their actions I become a better person. Just like
how we learn if you want to master something, what do you do you teach it one more time if you
master something you teach, so if you want to master something you teach it and that's how Allah
subhanaw taala made us. For example, rasool Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said, Have mercy
on those on earth, that Allah will have mercy upon you. Allah says forgive others, then Allah says
He will forgive you, Allahu Akbar. So when I helped someone, I ended up helping my own self. And
		

			also Allah Sal, Allahu Allah, he was a minister, give me an example. He said the example of the one
who fulfills the commands of Allah. And the one who does not, is like a group of people divided into
two going onto a ship, one group goes to the top, the ones that know the right from the wrong pretty
much. And then the ones who go in the bottom does not know much. So when they go to the bottom,
anytime they want water, they go to the upper deck, to throw the bucket, get the water and use it.
At one point the people in the lower level of that ship. They said we don't want to disturb the ones
on the top. We don't want to irritate them, you know, to give them some peace. So how about we drill
		

			a hole into the lower level of the boat? Can you imagine that drill a hole what's going to happen to
the ship? It's gonna sink. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam says, if the ones on the top
pay attention, if the ones on the top do not stop, the ones in the lower level, they will all drown
		

			and if they stop them from drilling the hole and they assist them, they will all be saved. So
therefore when you tell the guy to make sense, then go this way. It's not just his Salah becomes
better. Our gym as a whole becomes better. This person now teaches his children who is your
children's classmates. You see how it's a full circle Subhanallah not just that even under the
second tip is to motivated to give Dawa is how you will benefit even from edger Hassan at Weiss
Rasool allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam every time you hear that name, say what sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam, he says manda Illa Houda whoever calls people to guidance to the truth, and that person
		

			ends up doing it you the caller, you get the reward for their actions, and their actions will not be
reduced and reward for them. Allahu Akbar, how many of us in this room without even the need of
raising hands?
		

			You all would many of us would love to have passive income, right? You want to sleep, you have
income coming in, you want to go on a vacation and you get that deposit in your account because some
rental property that you have you love passive income, it's just so beautiful. But to get it you
have to put a lot of effort. Similarly, you want passive has an ad. Passive has an ad income. So you
do this work, you write this article, you do this video, you upload it, you share it, you advise and
every time while you're sleeping, you're eating, you're vacationing, you're getting snacks wine
because of that person you advise at the workplace, Allahu Akbar. So don't just think of dunya but
		

			also think of the dean and
		

			lastly, under the second tip about how this motivates the there'll be benefit for you, is that if
you really want to physically look beautiful, it's an hour or understand how can that even make
sense? This is like a halal makeup tutorial. Alright, but also Allah is Allah Allahu alayhi wa
sallam he says not dar Allahu Imran authentic narration he makes you out Yeah, Allah make the one so
beautiful in the eyes of the to make him so beautiful. Who is it yet? Also Allah, men semi I mean
the Hadith and Fabella hakama Samia, the one who hears from us a statement and he conveys it the way
he heard it, Allahu Akbar. So when you narrate the Hadith the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		

			said this, you will look better, Allah Allah to Allah one, two and three, you will look better so
Subhana Allah we think may Allah make protect us era Bill Allah mean that there is no no behind this
stuff sometimes Right? Like, oh, being religious, doesn't mean I take care of my physical features
and so on and so forth. No and not just you should even doubt itself. That's the reward of giving
Dawa Allahu Akbar, may Allah protect us era by Allah mean and make us beautiful, inside and outside.
So number one, what was it is our job to convey? Even if it's one verse number two, remember the
reward that you get when you call people to Allah? Number three, make your Dawa convey this man or
		

			this trust within your capabilities. The call of giving Dawa does not mean you come to this main
stage. It doesn't mean that you have to give Friday hotbars it's much more than that. Just if you
noticed
		

			the session was slightly postponed. Did you notice a little bit was delayed? What was the issue was
a mic issue? Do you think I fixed it? No way. There was some group of wonderful people in the back
may Allah bless them they fixed it. Someone who else had to put this projector someone is now
recording us. May Allah grant him that which is best. Someone right now if he has don't see it, I
can see there's a timer I have 12 minutes 47 seconds left. So it's what what am I trying to say we
all have a job to do. So we all complement each other and don't limit down just to public speaking,
it's a lot bigger than this. Every single one of you here young and old male and female, just
		

			recently been practicing or for the longest time every one of you is gifted. You have to truly
believe in that. I'm telling you, I am gifted and you're gifted and all of us give our gifted. But
what many of us have not yet done is unwrap the gift. You're special about something? May Allah
Allah wants to know what we're best at say I mean
		

			Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when it comes to conveying in the best of abilities, the
people get inspired by him. And I'll share with you one story. There was a German boxer champion
during his time, in which he was invited to Riyadh Saudi Arabia to be honored for his achievements.
That was many, many years ago, more than 20 years ago. And then he came to Riyadh, they honored him
gave him a prize and everything like that. And there was a sister in the gathering. She was in a
coffee sister and she really wanted to see can we give him Dawa? Like, this guy is so influential,
she noticed perhaps, and no one has really been very much involved here capacity and capability at
		

			that time was to do what? Give him a Quran translated into German language. So she said, here we go,
sir. This is a Quran translated into your language. He took that book, who's the narrator of the
story, the boxer, but let me tell you when he says, I went back to Germany. 20 years later, I was
cleaning my library. And then as I was cleaning all the books, I don't want this I need this. I came
across the book. And I remember this was given to me by some Muslim lady in Riyadh, in Saudi Arabia,
that didn't say much except give me this book. So I said, you know, after he retired, oh, god the
Quran, and start reading and start hitting his heart starting to read and start to get impacted
		

			start to read. I start to get convinced until he went to the Islamic center in his city in Germany.
And he asked how can I become Muslim? And he accepted Islam. What did he do the next day? Next day,
he sets up a table in one of the busiest spots in his city. What did he have on the table? He had
pamphlets. He had books he had matters
		

			Have the deen to tell people about La ilaha illallah so whoever sees him all what they want is a
selfie. True story. Oh, can I have a picture with you? He's like, Yeah, sure about on your way out.
Please take this with you. Take this with you take this with you in one year, how many people
accepted Islam 104 104 People accepted Islam. From that brother. All of that reward is in whose
scale that sister 20 years are going to react. Allahu Akbar. So you never know that see that you
drop how much fruit it will bring about. So number three, you go within your capabilities. You're a
physician, you have an office, you have a waiting room. Bismillah they put GQ magazine, GQ magazine,
		

			tell me some beautiful Riyadh or sila Hain book maybe maybe something about who is Jesus and Islam
stuff that we really appreciate maybe something creative May Allah reward all of you who tried to do
that which is best for Islam say I mean, within your kibbutz capabilities, number four or five,
convey and give Dawa with humbleness and respect. It's very important to deliberate with utmost
Allah. Allah says in the Quran are all the bIllahi min ash shaytani R Rajim Oduro ala as the ROB
Baker bin Hekmati. Well Maori Latina has Sana wotja Dill home Binetti. He acts and Allah says call
people to the path of Allah with wisdom and tell kind advice and if you want to have a discussion or
		

			a debate then mixture is with best of manners, Allahu Akbar. This is what rasool Allah is Allah
Allahu Allah Subhana Allah is teaching us look to this wonderful, scary, but optimistic Hadith and
same time, he says, bad character
		

			ruins the deed, the action the same way vinegar ruins the honey, I never tried putting vinegar and
honey, but I trust him. If you put vinegar in honey, it ruins it. Even if I never tried it, or you
ever tried it, we believe it also allies ourselves. But that's how your action is ruined the good
stuff you're doing by doing it in a bad clap and bad character. For example, let's say as your true
story, I was in another very far away sitting. And there was a brother who was setting up the chairs
for the lecture. Wonderful brother big he has a big family. He works very hard to full time. Work in
one of the big corporations. He's coming on a Sunday, volunteering the hours beautiful guy, but the
		

			manner in which he was talking to the remaining volunteers was very demeaning. He's like get to see
Bring the chair What's the matter with you? Fat You're so slow, but I should have never called you
like you see how.
		

			Why you're doing great job and this behavior ruins all your sacrifices, you are better off staying
at home doing nothing. May Allah forgive us out of Bella Alameen. So here we learn to do in the best
of luck. And also Allah is Allah Allahu alayhi wa sallam in one of the beautiful examples. He sent a
group of the Sahaba because there is a people around Medina they're trying to spy. There's a lot of
enemies towards the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Lo and behold, this group of Sahaba, they
captured the guy. He was a lead that he was like a king in Nigeria in the next area of Central
Arabia. So when they captured him, his name was to mama to meet Assad. For mama, this man when he
		

			was captured, and he was brought into the message of the Prophet sallallahu. And he was telling us
like a jackpot, kill him. He wants to kill our own people destroy him. So the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, when this man was tied to the pillar of the message in nebo, so yes, he was in the
masjid this Kaffir man at that time, the Prophet told him yo, Mama Merenda. So Mama, what do you
have? What do you got for us? What's the deal? Here's the deal is simple. I have three options.
That's the enemy of Islam. Look what he's saying. He said, option number one, if you want to kill
me, they know that my blood is very expensive. So he's threatening the Prophet while he's being tied
		

			to the pillar like you kill me, you know, you will not get away with this. Number two, you forgive
me, then I'm a very grateful person. I will pay you back for it and I'll never forget that favor. If
you want money. Option three. I'll give you all the money that you want. You know how rich I am. So
the profit that I would like he basically he left him.
		

			Then the next day the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says he has to mama man that thermometer
What do you have? Is like just like why I told you yesterday, I tell you again, today, three
options. You kill me. I have a big backup of people that will take care of me. Number two, you'll
forgive me. I'm very grateful. Number three, you want money. I'll give you everything that you want.
And the Prophet left him. I want you to realize where was he all these days? Where was he? In the
Masjid? So he saw he sees the Sahaba interacting. He sees Billa a lot of the Allahu Anhu was an
Abyssinian slave, someone who is disrespected very much in that area, being someone that people have
		

			looked up to him. You know what that people used to say about Dylan who was a slave so worthless
Nam, they said worthless in the eyes of people, but he's very well
		

			or the instead of Allah they used to say Abubaker is a unit a worker is our master. And Dylan is our
master and the way they said it Abubaker is our Sayed and he freed our master Billa Rhodiola when
you look at the respect and the love, so he sees that he sees the Prophet sallallahu and he's in the
wonderful Imam a great example the Imam should be the best example it's a lot of pressure, but the
Imam should be the best non negotiable. This is a position that Allah will hold us accountable for
the Prophet reading Quran May Allah make you all hear the Prophet reading Quran and Jana yarrabilba
Allah mean, so he says all of that, maybe some jokes, some comments some days some halacha third
		

			day, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam goes to him, says yes to mama indexer mama, what's the
deal today? Day three, it says the deal of day three is like day one, like day two. Number one, you
kill me there's a lot of people that will fight back number two, you forgive me, I will be very
grateful. Number three, you want money I give you whatever you want. So the Prophet says Atletico
release him what Yasser Allah released him. Kill this man. He's a leader who wants to eliminate us
from this earth. Release him. Let him go. This is that lack of Rasool allah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam. What happened? Through mama left the masjid no one touched him. There's even a narration
		

			that says that they fed through ma'am and the food that was being done to the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wasallam to honor that prisoner. So then when this man left, he went near a palm tree, took a
shower, came back, took a shower wine, he came back, and when he walked into the masjid, he said a
shadow Allah ilaha illallah wa shadow under Muhammad Rasulullah Sahaba were excited. This is an
amazing accomplishment. The king of that area in Ned's became Muslim Allahu Akbar, this man look to
what he says. He says, Yeah, Muhammad, there is no face that I hated more than your face. And today,
you're the most beloved face to me. Yeah, Muhammad. There's no religion. I hated more than Islam.
		

			And today Islam is the most beloved religion to me. Yeah, Mohammed Medina was the ugliest and worst
and most cities that I don't want to even pass by. And today, Medina is the most beloved city to me.
Yeah, Mohammed, from now on. I will never deal with any business with the kuffaar and this and that
until you give me the thumbs up the green light that yes, I can do this as Khaled or No, I cannot do
this because it's haram Allahu Akbar, then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam given the glad
tidings, the good news. What in the world did he see in 72 hours? Not just to be neutral, he was
neutral. If you guys are not so bad, no, you're the best, from the worst to the best within 72
		

			hours. This was the character of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Number five and last one.
Convey and give Dawa while focusing on the effort, not the result. Focus on what the effort and not
the result Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he says in karma to Allah haidakhan chiamato fee
for sila fell yo Risa if your MO Pm is taking place I want you to imagine the sky is being ripped.
The oceans are turned to fire. The light of the sun is fading away. The moon is getting closer to
the sun, would you mean a Shem? So we'll come up K CHAOS The Earth is cracking Zulu, Salah and you
had a plant? What would you do with like run for your life? Who's going to eat from this plant?
		

			What's the point? The Prophet says if this is all happening, the eruption of Earth is taking place.
The sky is being destroyed all of that stuff. You have a plant? Plant it what does it tell you? You
take the means leave the results on Allah subhanaw taala who will eat from it? That's not your
business. How much will it take to grow leave it to Allah subhanaw taala who will benefit from it
leave it to Allah Jalla Jalla you put the effort because if success is based on the on results, then
some of the first ones to go to * would be profits when the biller because some profits they come
not a single one believing in them, but they are the highest in general Why not results efforts?
		

			Allah says what can I say you come Your efforts are appreciated. What can I say you can miss Cora
Allah did not focus on the results there. When it comes to the effort to new hallelujah Salah many
parents are here knew how was he a great father or not, without waiting for your answer. No was one
of the greatest fathers and parents that ever walked on earth. He is one of the best five prophets
ever. But his own son was not a bad Muslim. His own Son does not miss one or two Salah his son was a
straight up Kaffir
		

			this does not make him a bad father. Because your success should not be in the hands of the people.
Your success should be in the effort that you put and Allah is your ultimate judge. So give that our
it's our job to give it number to do it while remembering the reward Allah will give you do it
within your keypad.
		

			abilities and capacity. Number four, deliver the data with utmost respect and good luck. Number
five, focus on the effort. That's where your success is at. Leave the results on Allah subhanho wa
Taala I got 12 seconds left salam Wa alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
