I'm in an airport, and I went to go use the restroom, and I wanted

00:00:02 --> 00:00:05

to make Waldo. So Waldo, for me, is like something I just like to

00:00:05 --> 00:00:09

be in, like as much as I can. Subhanallah, some people don't

00:00:09 --> 00:00:12

know how amazing Waldo is, but it brings Noor into your life. It's a

00:00:12 --> 00:00:16

way of being radiant with Allah, subhana wa taala. It's a way of

00:00:16 --> 00:00:18

being recognized on the day of judgment by the Prophet

00:00:18 --> 00:00:21

sallallahu, alayhi wa sallam and other believers. If you make

00:00:21 --> 00:00:24

waldou before you sleep, an angel prays for you the entire night. It

00:00:24 --> 00:00:27

brings blessings into your life, and it's a means of your

00:00:27 --> 00:00:30

forgiveness. Like every single drop of water that you know is

00:00:30 --> 00:00:33

like, evaporates off you, that falls off you, it's a means of

00:00:33 --> 00:00:36

forgiveness for you. And so I wanted to make Waldo. And of

00:00:36 --> 00:00:38

course, like I'm in a public place, I definitely do it over my

00:00:38 --> 00:00:41

socks. The woman on the right of me was doing a full face of

00:00:41 --> 00:00:44

makeup. I'm like, absolutely slaying, of course. And the woman

00:00:44 --> 00:00:47

to the left, like, used the restroom and just left without

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

washing her hands. And I was thinking about, like, it's so

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

normal to see a woman just like, doing her makeup. Like, yeah,

00:00:52 --> 00:00:55

that's, you know, normal. And like, we should not normalize not

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

washing hands, but it happens, but let's normalize. Make him a little

00:00:58 --> 00:00:59

everywhere. I.
