00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			And she calls her
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:03
			copy control.
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:20
			The Prophet sallallahu
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			abus from this world, he explained
three things that are made to led
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:33
			to him. One, woman, two, perfume
and three. He sent full one to any
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			full one for any the comfort of my
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			eye is in Salah, the Prophet
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:45
			sallallahu Abu Asmaa, brought
together women, perfume and solo.
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:45
			As
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:49
			Bennett mentioned that the reason
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:53
			salam mentioned women was because
he sought special comfort in
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			women. So Allah
		
00:00:56 --> 00:01:01
			AJ, when his mother passed away,
om Amen, his second mother was
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:01
			there to come
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:07
			from him when his uncle was the
one who took care of him after his
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:11
			grandfather passed away, his aunt
Swami Tessa will deal
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			with like another mother's hand
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:19
			when he received the revelation,
and he was so scared,
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:21
			who,
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:24
			until receive that comfort from
her.
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:28
			When the Prophet saw the evil,
didn't know what to do with the
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:31
			day. Yet, when the greatest of the
many companions were so
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:34
			overwhelmed with emotion, they
were despondent and they weren't
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:37
			listening, he fought comfort and
fighting for whom
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:42
			SON OF A Willingham, and when the
Prophet saw them, was passing
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:46
			away, he didn't ask to be moved to
the masjid. Sallallahu alaihi
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:46
			wasallam,
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:51
			he asked permission to pass away
in the House and in the lap of
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:52
			Aisha ra
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:58
			so as soon as he mentions that the
reason the Prophet saw them said
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:02
			that one and wait beloved to him
is because he's taught comfort, a
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:05
			special type of comfort in women
in his life. So the law finds
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:06
			the
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:10
			sinner as students, mentions that
the reason I Prophet said this is
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			because
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:17
			women have special rulings when it
comes to ritual purity, and
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			sometimes they're very
complicated, and when the
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:22
			complication is one reward, so
there's more reward in teaching
		
00:02:22 --> 00:02:25
			those buildings, and there's more
reward when we experience those
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			buildings. And
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:32
			the faxham, as su also mentions,
didn't experience those things,
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:35
			and so he taught woman that one
woman would come and ask the
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:36
			Father. So he
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:42
			sent them, he would explain to
them, but he also taught the other
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:45
			women how to teach other women. So
he loved
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:49
			women because they helped him give
the shayab, the messengers of the
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:52
			messenger, Allah, Salah, Abu
Asmaa, and then at Santa Fe
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:52
			mentions
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:55
			the angels.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			Why did the protests mention
		
00:02:59 --> 00:02:59
			for him
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:06
			the prophesy mentioned perfume?
Because angels love good sense.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:09
			They love beautiful sense. So when
the Prophet saw that mentions
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:13
			perfume, it's as if he's
conversating with the angels. It
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:17
			brings angels closer. And then he
mentioned salah. In the Prophet
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:17
			Salla
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:22
			salad mentions Salah as the place
of comfort, his ultimate refuge,
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:27
			where more beautiful to see
complete surrender than with a
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:31
			conversation to the one who knows
everything that you call
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:38
			and just 11 words across by Salman
describes so much of his life, so
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:43
			much wisdom that we can take, and
this is exactly how his Farewell
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:47
			Pilgrimage was described by a
companion who witnessed it that
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:51
			the Prophet saw in his elephants
caused the people to come to tears
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:54
			and efforts to melt because of the
way that he spoke with such
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:56
			beauty. Sullivan the Farewell
Pilgrimage is
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			the time in which the Prophet
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:06
			sallallahu, Alaska, alas, had the
opportunity to share final words
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:10
			with the believers in general, and
John lies, one of the companions
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:14
			who narrates what happened. John
was asked about this in his older
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			age. By this time, he was blind.
When someone came and asked him
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:17
			about
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:23
			it, he was so gentle and generous
in his response. And he held out
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:24
			nine gamers, and he
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:29
			mentioned that it happened at this
time. And then he described what
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:31
			he saw, that there were tribes and
tribes that came to Medina
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:34
			preparing to pull for heads of the
Prophet sallallahu. So you can
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			imagine that the Prophet
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:41
			sallallahu, alayhi wa someone has
all these believers that he
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:44
			nurtured since the time of his
infancy. And then you have the
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:48
			believers who are coming to Medina
for the first time, being across
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:52
			wisdom for the first time. And
then you have on their way to
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:55
			Medina more and more groups
coming. And the majority of the
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:58
			companions across the way Sena are
companions because they imagine
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			one time in this experience.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			On the way for hedge. Gabbard,
enough.
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:06
			Solomon mentioned that Asmaa,
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:09
			this or ACE, will be along the
iPad. Asmaa, at this
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:14
			time, was married to a buck, and
she was very, very pregnant on the
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:15
			way to Hajj.
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:17
			She gives birth,
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:21
			and so she wonders, what is she
supposed to do of the book holding
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:23
			alumni who calls and ask the
prophets
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:28
			what set up. The prophet tells her
how to clean up and prepare for
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:31
			how she does so, and now they
continue on with anymore.
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:37
			Imagine who came to the hedge of
the prophets of alumni who have
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			sent them, and now he is standing
ready to give discernment in the
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:43
			outskirts of the city in which he
was kicked out with almost 150,000
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:51
			people from a time where, last
time he was here, we were
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:52
			persecuting his followers, the
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:54
			Quran, for the cause
		
00:05:56 --> 00:06:00
			of the death, the pain, the
physical torture, not having food,
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:03
			not having enough water, and of
the law that losing
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:07
			his loved ones, he is back now in
this space with all
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:12
			these people who believe in Him,
and some of them have
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:15
			met him into this
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:19
			home. So what is he going to
share? We
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:21
			can
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:23
			imagine
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:29
			who the prophets of alumni and the
Senna is
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:33
			looking out at him proud because
who he sees the lung fighting with
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:36
			Senna is Abu Dhabi alumni, the one
who is his best friend, the one
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:39
			who has gone through so much
wicked difficulty and pain and
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:41
			loss, who he seen are the
companions who were there when he
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:44
			was saw that his mother's grave.
So Allah by Abu Asmaa, 40 years
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:46
			after her passing, who you would
see. So
		
00:06:47 --> 00:06:47
			Allah by Abu
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:51
			Asmaa is the woman and men who
worked together
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:56
			to build communities, both who
made mistakes. So you can imagine
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:57
			that a monster crowd
		
00:06:58 --> 00:06:58
			is,
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:01
			for example, mentions an
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:06
			authentic narration of a companion
who was so overwhelmed by the
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:09
			beauty of a woman, companion who
was staring at that he kept
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:11
			walking in until he walked into a
wall and smashed his notes,
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:15
			and then he came to the Prophet.
So I told him about it. You can
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:15
			see that
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:19
			the people in the Prophet saw them
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:20
			are
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23
			looking out back our adults like I
left.
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:27
			Who? In fact, should she
experience something that was very
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:29
			sad for her to experience
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:32
			as a woman, and the father
comforted her by saying, this is
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:33
			routine for the daughters behind
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:38
			them. You can see that the people
who he's looking
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:40
			out at are
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:43
			those like or they who had a
little bird,
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:46
			and he would ask about this little
bird. And
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:52
			when he would ask about this
little bird, one day, the person
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			passed away, and he was there and
have sorrow
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00
			with this little boy, with this
young man, these incidences are
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:03
			the Prophet SAW Abdullah how he
used to get
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:07
			drunk, and then he was punished,
and then he would get drunk, and
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:10
			there was consequences. And if
companions started
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:15
			cursing him, he started cursing
how many times this is going to
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:16
			happen, they started
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:19
			making dua against him. Prophet
says,
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:24
			Stop now. Do not age and run
against your brother. Instead,
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:24
			they drive
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:28
			them for narrations we
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:31
			have in front of the Father Son of
those who were standing born,
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:35
			those who were those who ran to do
good immediately, without a second
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:38
			meditation, and those who are
struggling with all of us.
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:42
			And what does he choose to say to
them in this moment, this
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:46
			final opportunity to speak to all
of those who he
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:52
			sees so the law. He doesn't say,
focus on memorizing the entire
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:55
			Quran every single day, which all
of us actually we should
		
00:08:56 --> 00:09:01
			do. And the Prophet doesn't say in
this sermon, pray to Hunter every
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:03
			single night, and if you don't,
you're not even a believer.
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:08
			The promise of the law abiding was
that I'm focusing in this moment
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:12
			on justice and embrace together of
different types of justice that
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:15
			we're going to number four
quickly. One, economic
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:20
			justice, two, racial justice,
three, gender justice. And I know
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:24
			that that phrase has a lot of
connotations in this context. It
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			just means giving rights to one
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:32
			another and the fourth justice of
one's self, of your own soul, your
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34
			soul, giving justice to your soul.
So
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:36
			the Prophet saw someone
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:39
			speaks
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:45
			about getting rid of youth for
getting rid of interest, and he
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:49
			begins with our best money alumni.
What's fascinating about our best
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:54
			loving alumni? His uncle is one of
the prophet of God. He didn't have
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:59
			to start with his own family, but
it shows all of us to start with
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			ourselves and our.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:00
			Families
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:04
			to make sure that we're invested
in those relationships and working
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:07
			through those relationships before
we call everybody else as a
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:10
			prophet, he can within his own
dialog.
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:14
			So he makes our battle, I hope,
the one whom he cancels out anyone
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			who owes him interest first. But
Abba told me he actually did not
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:17
			accept Islam
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:19
			in the
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:25
			dirty little Islam in the very
liberal stages. His wife won a
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:28
			little accepted Islam in the early
stages. And because of her
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:32
			acceptance of Islam, she was like
the best friends of Tunisia would
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:36
			be alone because of her acceptance
of Islam, her son even
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:42
			Abu Asmaa, so our God told you
about kings made an example in the
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:43
			parable survey,
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:47
			in
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:51
			the parable sermon, despite the
fact that he came to Islam later
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:54
			on. And all of us have our own
journeys to Islam. Some of you are
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:57
			converts, some from performing
families. Some of you found Islam
		
00:10:57 --> 00:11:00
			and chose Islam there in life, as
we say, well, one of us has a
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:03
			space in the community of the
Prophet Solomon,
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:09
			and once the prophetic symbol
speaks economic justice. This is
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:12
			critical. We live in a society
where we can see it based
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:16
			on myrmite, for example, but it's
YAML day. Every freeway has
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:20
			unhoused individuals sleeping
under it. I've met children in
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:21
			parks for our
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:25
			house. Economic Justice is so
critical because it takes care of
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:28
			the most vulnerable of our
community, and that is the
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:33
			Protestantism call the Muslim
community to be particular. In
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:37
			when you take care of economic
justice, you take care of
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:41
			children, you take care of those
who are most vulnerable in society
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:41
			and the
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:46
			public school law are they
understand the wounds to speaking
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:46
			about
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:51
			women. He speaks about caring for
women and giving women their
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:54
			rights. And that woman is women
must give rights as well. But he
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:57
			calls he he gives this call to
giving women their rights.
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:03
			And it's interesting, because whom
he speaks to in this society, just
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:07
			a generation passed, all in all,
no longer. I hate to think of
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:09
			woman as nothing. They used to be
born as nothing, until Allah SWT
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:13
			revealed. He revealed and divided
what he divided it. This was a
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:18
			Prophet, sallAllahu, alayhi
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:22
			wa sallam, who withhold his
granddaughter in prayer, because
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:22
			as the
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:27
			United veterans, he wanted to
emphatically express that
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:34
			gathers our honor. You have to
imagine the cultural shift of
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:38
			mindset of men and women who are
burying the baby daughters alive,
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:41
			and I guarantee women like
property. What does it take to
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:45
			shift the culture to recognize
women's rights in this space,
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:50
			until the Prophet saw someone, for
example, when he is speaking
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:56
			about the creation of a woman, and
there's a hadith talking about her
		
00:12:56 --> 00:13:00
			being created from the rib of
Adam, sometimes, because of our
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:04
			experiences, our misunderstanding
of Islam, our lack of exposure to
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:07
			the complete picture of Islam. We
can read that hadith in a
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:10
			mistranslated way. And you might
think, Well, let's start reading
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:11
			about women and Hispanic
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:16
			but the purpose of the love body
concern begins that hadith
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:19
			treating women well, and it ends
up in treating women well, and in
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:23
			speaking about not making women
not to bring women's nature. Dr
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:26
			khaki, then he mentions that this
is about treating women with
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:32
			gentleness and love and
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:38
			care and compassion. This is the
legacy of the Father salah. Ad,
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:40
			and then we look at racial justice
that the basalt is speaking to
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:43
			companions who he again, has
nurtured. Spiritual infancy, but
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:46
			they came from an insanely
tribalistic area where their name,
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:48
			their lineage, their color,
everything mattered, not very
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:51
			dissimilar to today and when the
wisdom is looking at his
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:54
			companions, they experienced
racism, and
		
00:13:58 --> 00:13:59
			he mentored them
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:03
			through that without them. Our
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:09
			community, but without a when I'm
talking about who he one, who he
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:10
			was in the time of the Prophet's
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:14
			voice and then the Prophet's
wisdom, was very intentional about
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:15
			appointing him as
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:17
			a
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:22
			resident of the Prophet's life
sentence. And also who Abdullah he
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:24
			appointed to who's a
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:28
			free, enslaved, free man, and the
second Abdullah, and who was a man
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:32
			with a disability, who was blind.
He made these two those who would
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:35
			be eatens of the community that
would have outsider to Medina. Who
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:36
			are they saying?
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:44
			Give the event? Who are they
saying? Call everyone to
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:46
			Allah that it doesn't matter what
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:50
			someone was born with or looks
like or how they are. It's about
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:54
			what the poet says, mentions in
the Pharaoh's ceremony that it's
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:59
			about what is in your heart. The
Prophet in Disney talks about all
		
00:14:59 --> 00:14:59
			of us.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:04
			Coming from Adam ad breaking that
honor of being connected to a
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:09
			prophet, the prophet created with
the two love the truth of all
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:13
			different colors of the world. And
then all of us go back to that
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:17
			ancestor, our grandfather, just
like how he honored Aisha, Ana
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:21
			by connecting her pain to
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:24
			him. AhI, Prophet saw him passed
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:29
			away, he was too emotional to
continue giving Medina. He
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:31
			couldn't get it and look at the
praise the Prophet saw
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:35
			that the Prophet was there
underneath
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:36
			that crowd,
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:42
			and he would she burst into tears,
so he asked for permission to
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:44
			leave Medina, and he promised he
wasn't
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:50
			going to give the Adan again.
Years later, when Allah was going
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:51
			in to open Palestine,
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:55
			they go into Philistine, they
called into mastill, and he asked
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:58
			ya who had been part of the
opening of
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:03
			Fez of Jerusalem. He asked him to
make the ad and
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:10
			then the the Abu reminds him that
the Prophet SAW would have wanted
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:13
			you to make the Amen until he
begins to make the amend. And
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:14
			Allah so emotional, he just
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:19
			falls in his knees. You can
imagine the first time you hear
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:19
			the ad
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:24
			from Allah. The first time you
hear the
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:29
			Adnan from the one of the prophets
to get the Adnan. What does that
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:32
			feel like in your heart after
missing it for so long? What does
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:35
			it feel like from another passing
away, and he is so excited? Why?
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:39
			Because he's going to be with his
companions. He missed his
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:41
			companions, and he can't wait to
be with the Prophet. So the Lord,
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:43
			why they give us a minute
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:47
			here after that love, the
intensity of that love doesn't
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:50
			just come from someone saying
said, actually, at one time, it's
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:53
			someone who can invest in you and
invest in creating a community
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:56
			where you are seeing who you are,
not about what you look like. Yes,
		
00:16:56 --> 00:16:57
			we're seeing what you look like,
but that's not what
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:02
			matters. What matters is what's
inside an action to do with it,
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:05
			which is what the Bhagavata says
in this generation,
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:10
			also Subhanallah, there are so
many companions who are black
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:15
			companions, and there's so many
federal things, including, as I
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:16
			mentioned, Palestine.
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:24
			This was a beautiful king who was
extremely dark in perfection. He
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:28
			was very black. And when he went
to open Egypt, the ruler there
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:31
			said to him, said to the people
who were with him, to the other
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:34
			companions that he wants to speak
about, to speak to someone else.
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:36
			He doesn't want to
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:41
			speak to this man because of his
mother and the companion said,
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:46
			this color. And the companion
said, This is not black. This is
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:49
			not something that is a bad thing
we look at. He's the best of our
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:52
			station. He is the best of us.
He's the most knowledgeable. This
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:55
			is our leader. And when he came he
asserted that this creation of how
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:57
			ALLAH SubhanA created him. And
then he
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:01
			said, if you're afraid of me,
there's 1000 others like me.
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:03
			He 1000
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:08
			others like me, even louder in
color, and they're even stronger
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:11
			this assertion, this this honor of
identity in the way that Allah
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:14
			created. And that understanding
came from the prophets of Allah,
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:19
			by Jesus teaching that there is no
person, no matter what their
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:23
			background, their color, their
gender, anything. Gender, anything
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:26
			except what matters to the law,
which is that which is an
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:28
			apartment, actions that they
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:33
			do. So this focus on racial
justice was one which the Prophet
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:34
			SAW THE LAW party when
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:39
			someone emphasized that this was
fun. And finally, the Prophet SAW
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:41
			THE LAW party ended by talking
about
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:43
			holding onto
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:47
			the Quran. And there's a phrase
that the Prophet
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:51
			mentioned earlier in his speech,
and that is that shaytan is not
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:55
			going to try to get you really big
things. He reminds us, there's
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:58
			different narrations of the
pharaoh, sir, but he reminds us to
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:01
			maintain Salah and Zahab and hedge
and pillars. But then he also
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:03
			says, So long farther he was
looking at Shaykh on is not going
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:06
			to be able to not going to come to
you with a big he's going to come
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:09
			to you with a small. He's going to
come to you with the things that
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:11
			you feel are not that big of a
deal, and you're going to do
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:16
			anyway. But also he's going to
cause you to despair the mercy of
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:16
			Omar,
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:20
			because there are times where you
look at someone who does go to the
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:23
			masjid every single set of the
air, and you see them weeping in
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:26
			every single prayer, and you
wonder, what are they doing that
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:29
			is so special that you don't have
because you haven't taught them a
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:29
			lot in any
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:34
			way. Or you hear of someone who is
studying Islam, didn't make any
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:37
			lectures, and you think, I don't
have the time to do that, because
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:39
			I have young children, and my
whole focus is near my young
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:43
			children. Or you hear of someone
and what they're doing is taking
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:45
			care of their parents, and they're
able to provide for them, and
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:48
			their parents are comfortable. And
you think I'm in a position to be
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:51
			able to do that. I'm barely able
to make Tennessee, but I'm trying.
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:56
			And so sometimes we attribute the
things that we can't do. Sometimes
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:58
			we attribute the fact that we're
not good enough.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:00
			Me
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:04
			not to trust ourselves. Of course,
we say
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:08
			it to ourselves too, but then we
attribute that
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:10
			to
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:12
			how
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:17
			we think Allah subhanahu
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:19
			wa
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:23
			and he was crying out, saying, My
sins, my sins. It was so
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:27
			overwhelmed by his sins, and the
Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sudden
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:29
			told him to drive
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:31
			to me.
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:34
			Oh, sadly the movie.
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:40
			Oh, Allah, your forgiveness is
greater than my own my sins and
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:42
			your mercy is I
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:47
			have more old for than in my own
deeds. And the Prophet told him to
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:49
			say again, and then he told her to
say it again, and then about
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:52
			tales, and told to stand up.
You've been
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:54
			forgiven
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:01
			this moment. Stand up. You've been
forgiven when you have repented
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:03
			for something, have you
immediately stood up and said, Oh,
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:07
			welcome now and then, go into good
deeds that shall make up quiet. Or
		
00:21:07 --> 00:21:09
			have you sat at that and thought,
because 11am for
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:13
			Baby, do I even deserve
forgiveness? And you continue to
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:17
			define yourself by what you did
five years ago, or five years ago
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:21
			or 15 years ago, and never stop
remembering that you can't be
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:22
			getting up because
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:26
			of what you've done. And asked
here the Prophet SAW told us
		
00:21:27 --> 00:21:29
			tandem fit for him. And the
multiple Montana tells us to
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:33
			replace the back of the pit. When
you make a mistake, it's stand up,
		
00:21:33 --> 00:21:35
			do good. The child will give me a
forgiveness. And there's a God
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:38
			that the Prophet saws them taught
us to see after we eat. And do you
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:40
			know what the reward of that dies,
the rewards
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:47
			that rewards that dies and
innocents are forgiven? Look at
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:49
			the psychology of laws of the
time. He knows that so many of us
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:49
			like to drown
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:53
			our sorrow in food. So go have a
tub of ice cream, or maybe just a
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:55
			scoop, and the things
		
00:21:56 --> 00:22:00
			that go back after eating. Then
inshaAllah the Indians of
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:02
			forgiveness. Look how Allah wants
you to be optimistic. He knows our
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:03
			psychology.
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:09
			He's created us and how Allah had
immersed the mercy of of man, of
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:10
			women come
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:14
			down and tell us about ways to put
close to him. Subhanallah,
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:19
			the Promise of Allah, by Abu Asmaa
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:24
			ends this by reminding us to hold
on to the Quran in this
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:29
			and what do the Quran in this?
Puna teach us that every time we
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:30
			see him, that he is near,
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:34
			and that when we think we're not
good enough, I want you to
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:38
			remember what you do. I had a
sister today who is a foster
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:43
			parent for Afghan refugees. I met
another sister today opened her
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:44
			home from a lot for every person
		
00:22:46 --> 00:22:49
			who didn't have a family to have
this fall with. And so she and her
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:52
			family invited people from Ramadan
when you think you're not good
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:56
			enough, think about what did Allah
guide you to do? Because that, in
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:58
			and of itself, is a gift that he
		
00:22:59 --> 00:22:59
			put in
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:04
			your heart because of his love for
you. Because of his
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:10
			love for you, that the prophets
are in an in an IV perspictus,
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:13
			that when you turn to Allah, he
turns to you. That means he turned
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:16
			to you, unique. When you turn to
Allah, can't turn to you. He
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:17
			turned to
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:18
			them
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:20
			so that they would turn
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:26
			to the promises focuses here on
how we can turn back to
		
00:23:28 --> 00:23:31
			Allah, and a critical part of that
is creating community that feels
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:33
			that we're connected to one
another, that feels that we have
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:37
			that are given each other our
rights and that our inheritors and
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:37
			a forms of
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:42
			justice. I
