			You wear hijab, but you wish you
didn't. If you prayed, but you
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:05
			struggled with it, if you do
things, and the only reason you do
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:08
			it is because God asked of it. And
the only reason you don't do
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			things even though you wish you
could, is because you know it
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			wouldn't be pleasing to Him. That
doesn't make you a hypocrite. Do
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:15
			you know what the Prophet
Muhammad, peace be upon him said?
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:18
			He said that the Mujahid is the
one who strives against his or her
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:22
			own soul in the obedience of God,
that that is a battle against your
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25
			own soul, that you strive to do
the right thing even though you
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:28
			don't want to do it. You strive
not to do the wrong thing even
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:31
			though you wish you could. That
doesn't make you a hypocrite. That
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			makes you a spiritual warrior.
You.
