00:00:17--> 00:00:19

My brothers and sisters,

00:00:20--> 00:00:22

we know the famous hadith where he said

00:00:22--> 00:00:23

I have been sent for

00:00:25--> 00:00:27

the perfection of good character.

00:00:30--> 00:00:31

I've been sent for the

00:00:32--> 00:00:34

perfection of good character, to perfect good character,

00:00:37--> 00:00:38

to perfect manners.

00:00:40--> 00:00:42

If you ask me to

00:00:43--> 00:00:43

condense

00:00:44--> 00:00:46

what is the meaning of good character, good

00:00:46--> 00:00:47

matters

00:00:48--> 00:00:49

in one word,

00:00:49--> 00:00:51

that word is consideration.

00:00:54--> 00:00:54

Consideration

00:00:55--> 00:00:56

for each other. Right?

00:00:57--> 00:00:58

Consideration

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

requires

00:01:00--> 00:01:03

that you learn to do that which is

00:01:03--> 00:01:04

not natural.

00:01:06--> 00:01:07

Think about this.

00:01:07--> 00:01:09

Consideration requires

00:01:10--> 00:01:11

that you learn to do

00:01:12--> 00:01:14

that which is not natural

00:01:15--> 00:01:17

for the benefit of others.

00:01:18--> 00:01:20

To give you a very basic example,

00:01:21--> 00:01:23

you have a child. The child is born,

00:01:23--> 00:01:24

is growing up,

00:01:25--> 00:01:25

is,

00:01:26--> 00:01:28

still nursing and so on and so forth.

00:01:28--> 00:01:30

What is the first thing that the parents

00:01:30--> 00:01:33

teach the child? They teach the child what

00:01:33--> 00:01:34

we call potty training.

00:01:35--> 00:01:35

Yes?

00:01:36--> 00:01:37

Potty training.

00:01:38--> 00:01:39

Now tell me

00:01:39--> 00:01:41

to defecate or urinate,

00:01:41--> 00:01:44

when you are feeling like defecating and urinating,

00:01:44--> 00:01:45

is it natural or not natural?

00:01:46--> 00:01:48

Natural. Every cow does it. Every dog does

00:01:48--> 00:01:49

it.

00:01:50--> 00:01:53

So why do you insist that your child

00:01:53--> 00:01:54

must learn

00:01:55--> 00:01:56

to hold it

00:01:56--> 00:01:59

until he reaches the place which is designated

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

for that purpose.

00:02:01--> 00:02:02

Right?

00:02:03--> 00:02:05

Polititating is what? Polititating is not to say

00:02:06--> 00:02:08

never defecate. Never urinate. No. Of course, you

00:02:08--> 00:02:09

have to do it. It's a natural.

00:02:10--> 00:02:12

Do it in the right place. Yes?

00:02:15--> 00:02:18

So doing something in the right place means

00:02:18--> 00:02:21

that you have to hold in your natural

00:02:21--> 00:02:22

urges.

00:02:23--> 00:02:25

I feel like doing something, but this is

00:02:25--> 00:02:26

not the right place for that.

00:02:28--> 00:02:30

The same thing when it is done in

00:02:30--> 00:02:32

the right place is beautiful. It is

00:02:33--> 00:02:33

relieving.

00:02:34--> 00:02:37

It is the essence of good good character

00:02:37--> 00:02:39

and good manners. The very same thing done

00:02:39--> 00:02:40

in the wrong place.

00:02:41--> 00:02:43

The thing has not changed. The location has

00:02:43--> 00:02:44

changed.

00:02:48--> 00:02:49

So for example,

00:02:51--> 00:02:52

when we are praying,

00:02:52--> 00:02:54

if somebody's phone rings,

00:02:56--> 00:02:57

how do you feel?

00:03:00--> 00:03:00

Fantastic.

00:03:01--> 00:03:02

That ringtone I don't have.

00:03:03--> 00:03:04

So I'm going to ask this, but once

00:03:04--> 00:03:05

he finishes,

00:03:06--> 00:03:07

brother, what what ringtone, can you send me

00:03:07--> 00:03:09

the ringtone, please?

00:03:10--> 00:03:12

And then I will give you an instruction.

00:03:12--> 00:03:13

Everybody, please,

00:03:14--> 00:03:16

for this last, you know, don't take me

00:03:16--> 00:03:18

seriously, but last 4.

00:03:19--> 00:03:21

Turn your phones on to full volume

00:03:23--> 00:03:25

and each one time it

00:03:25--> 00:03:27

so that every 3 minutes,

00:03:27--> 00:03:29

the phone will sound

00:03:29--> 00:03:32

the latest ringtone and download all the beautiful

00:03:32--> 00:03:33

ringtones.

00:03:33--> 00:03:36

And while the harp is reciting, maybe it's

00:03:36--> 00:03:38

a test of his hips also. While he's

00:03:38--> 00:03:38

reciting,

00:03:40--> 00:03:42

every 3 minutes, a ringtone goes

00:03:43--> 00:03:44

off. Nice.

00:03:47--> 00:03:49

Why are you shaking it?

00:03:52--> 00:03:53

Why is it not nice?

00:03:55--> 00:03:57

A phone has a ringtone. Yes.

00:03:59--> 00:04:01

So what's wrong with the 4 has a

00:04:01--> 00:04:01

ringtone?

00:04:09--> 00:04:10

Right place.

00:04:11--> 00:04:14

There is a place for the ringtone. Yes.

00:04:14--> 00:04:16

So what is the place for

00:04:18--> 00:04:20

a child which is behaving like a

00:04:20--> 00:04:21

demented Simeon?

00:04:23--> 00:04:24

A demented Simeon is,

00:04:26--> 00:04:27

for Madmonkey.

00:04:31--> 00:04:32

Tell me.

00:04:32--> 00:04:35

You got a whole bunch of kids screaming

00:04:35--> 00:04:36

their guts out,

00:04:37--> 00:04:39

and you've got presumably their parents. I I

00:04:40--> 00:04:41

actually, I don't know. Maybe I was.

00:04:42--> 00:04:44

Do you rent out this space for anyone

00:04:44--> 00:04:45

to come and leave their kids here to

00:04:45--> 00:04:47

scream and go home? We have nothing. None

00:04:47--> 00:04:49

of those kids belong to any of us

00:04:49--> 00:04:49

here.

00:04:51--> 00:04:53

Is that is that is that true?

00:04:55--> 00:04:57

So how do you as a parent

00:04:58--> 00:05:00

you know your kid is screaming out there

00:05:02--> 00:05:04

and you as a parent are peacefully praying.

00:05:04--> 00:05:06

You don't care that everybody else's salah is

00:05:06--> 00:05:06

ruined,

00:05:07--> 00:05:08

But then if somebody's phone rings, you got

00:05:08--> 00:05:09

a

00:05:11--> 00:05:12

problem. Does it make sense?

00:05:14--> 00:05:15

Now

00:05:17--> 00:05:18

he will give me.

00:05:22--> 00:05:24

You are so, you know, difficult.

00:05:24--> 00:05:26

Rasool alaihi Salam

00:05:26--> 00:05:29

used to have you know, the Hadis used

00:05:31--> 00:05:32

to He came

00:05:34--> 00:05:36

and once he came, he was almost falling

00:05:36--> 00:05:38

down. Remember, he came down. He picked up

00:05:38--> 00:05:39

the child.

00:05:40--> 00:05:42

Another time, he did not get up from

00:05:42--> 00:05:42

the sujood,

00:05:44--> 00:05:46

and they found that he was riding the

00:05:46--> 00:05:48

the grandson was riding on his grandfather. You

00:05:48--> 00:05:49

know, blessed grandfather, blessed grandson,

00:05:50--> 00:05:53

So cause us to be in their company

00:05:53--> 00:05:53

one day.

00:05:56--> 00:05:57

Let me ask you something.

00:05:58--> 00:06:00

Go to that. Re research that hadith some

00:06:00--> 00:06:00

more.

00:06:02--> 00:06:04

Does it say anywhere that Hassan was screaming

00:06:04--> 00:06:05

and running all over?

00:06:09--> 00:06:11

Little child happened to how many times this

00:06:11--> 00:06:13

happened? Oh, another one. Check-in the books of

00:06:13--> 00:06:15

Hadith. Please check and see how many times

00:06:15--> 00:06:16

did this happen.

00:06:17--> 00:06:17

One

00:06:18--> 00:06:18

time.

00:06:19--> 00:06:21

He escaped probably said that Fatima,

00:06:22--> 00:06:23

you know,

00:06:23--> 00:06:24

control,

00:06:24--> 00:06:26

And he came into the into the masses.

00:06:26--> 00:06:28

Grandfather is there. He went to the grandfather.

00:06:30--> 00:06:32

Was he screaming? Do you disturb anybody, sir?

00:06:34--> 00:06:36

Believe me, if you are a little kid

00:06:36--> 00:06:38

comes in when I am praying and rides

00:06:38--> 00:06:40

on my shoulder, I will consider that to

00:06:40--> 00:06:41

be to be an honor.

00:06:44--> 00:06:46

I got no problem. Today, I was in

00:06:46--> 00:06:48

the afternoon. I'd like to ride on for

00:06:48--> 00:06:49

a little while.

00:06:51--> 00:06:53

And there were some kids here who were

00:06:53--> 00:06:54

playing. Then, you know, one of the brothers

00:06:54--> 00:06:56

said, I'm sorry, sir. They they I said,

00:06:56--> 00:06:57

nobody disturbed

00:06:58--> 00:07:00

Me? You can put me under a train.

00:07:00--> 00:07:00

I'll sleep.

00:07:01--> 00:07:03

Makes no difference to me.

00:07:04--> 00:07:06

No. No. No. No. I have no problem.

00:07:06--> 00:07:09

I am talking only about when people are

00:07:09--> 00:07:09

praying.

00:07:10--> 00:07:12

See, the thing I've said I'll tell you

00:07:12--> 00:07:12

something.

00:07:13--> 00:07:15

Should you bring children to the masjid? Yes

00:07:15--> 00:07:17

or no? Yes. Yes. Why?

00:07:19--> 00:07:21

To test them.

00:07:22--> 00:07:24

If you bring children to the masjid and

00:07:24--> 00:07:26

when salah is going on, if those kids

00:07:26--> 00:07:29

are running havoc there and you say nothing

00:07:29--> 00:07:31

to them, what are you really teaching them?

00:07:31--> 00:07:33

Salah is not important.

00:07:33--> 00:07:35

Aqlaq is not important.

00:07:36--> 00:07:38

Being considerate of other people is not important.

00:07:40--> 00:07:43

Feel free to disturb and ruins everybody's salah.

00:07:44--> 00:07:46

This is what what I know I won't

00:07:46--> 00:07:47

say that to them in so many words,

00:07:47--> 00:07:49

but children listen with their eyes, not with

00:07:49--> 00:07:50

their ears.

00:07:51--> 00:07:53

They don't care what you say until they

00:07:53--> 00:07:54

see what you do.

00:07:54--> 00:07:56

So when they are doing all this and

00:07:56--> 00:07:58

you keep silent, the message they are getting

00:07:58--> 00:08:00

is it's fine. Salah is not important.

00:08:01--> 00:08:03

Is this what you want to teach them?

00:08:04--> 00:08:08

So if you bring your children, most welcome

00:08:08--> 00:08:10

bring your children, keep them next to you,

00:08:10--> 00:08:11

Teach them how to pray. Teach them how

00:08:11--> 00:08:13

to be silent. Teach them what to do.

00:08:13--> 00:08:15

If you think the child is too small

00:08:15--> 00:08:16

for that, don't bring them.

00:08:18--> 00:08:19

Don't bring them.

00:08:20--> 00:08:22

If you think you can't control them, don't

00:08:22--> 00:08:22

bring them.

00:08:23--> 00:08:25

But if you bring them, let the child

00:08:25--> 00:08:27

stand next to you in the salah. Once

00:08:27--> 00:08:30

salah is over, no problem. Go and play

00:08:30--> 00:08:32

and make noise and so on.

00:08:33--> 00:08:35

If a child of this age is not

00:08:35--> 00:08:36

going to make noise, who I will I

00:08:36--> 00:08:37

make noise? No.

00:08:38--> 00:08:39

Let him okay. No problem. As much as

00:08:39--> 00:08:42

he wants. But in the time at the

00:08:42--> 00:08:43

time of salah

00:08:43--> 00:08:44

next to you.

00:08:45--> 00:08:47

You know, Imam Malik Rahatul Ali,

00:08:48--> 00:08:49

he says,

00:08:50--> 00:08:52

my and she's going to masjid and Abu

00:08:52--> 00:08:53

al Sharif

00:08:53--> 00:08:54

where he is learning from

00:08:58--> 00:09:01

He says my mother used to dress me

00:09:01--> 00:09:02

up in the morning to go for salah.

00:09:03--> 00:09:03

And

00:09:04--> 00:09:04

this

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

is.

00:09:06--> 00:09:08

Mother would dress him up. She would tie

00:09:08--> 00:09:10

a turban on his head, and this is

00:09:10--> 00:09:11

Malik. He's 5 years old.

00:09:13--> 00:09:14

She would take him

00:09:15--> 00:09:17

to the Masjid because she can't leave a

00:09:17--> 00:09:18

5 year old to try to go by

00:09:18--> 00:09:20

by himself. She would take him to the

00:09:20--> 00:09:22

masjid, leave him there. After,

00:09:23--> 00:09:23

she would go home.

00:09:24--> 00:09:26

Imam Malik would stay in the he's imam

00:09:26--> 00:09:28

then. Now he's a 5 year old kid

00:09:28--> 00:09:29

with a tower on his head. He's sitting

00:09:29--> 00:09:33

there. He's studying. He's learning. He's doing all

00:09:33--> 00:09:35

that all the way until Saath ul Dor.

00:09:36--> 00:09:38

Then the mother comes there Sarathudor. She praysor

00:09:38--> 00:09:40

and she takes you home to have some

00:09:40--> 00:09:40

food.

00:09:41--> 00:09:42

5 year old kid.

00:09:43--> 00:09:46

He said never in my life did I

00:09:46--> 00:09:48

ever go to the budget without a towel

00:09:48--> 00:09:49

on my head.

00:09:51--> 00:09:53

Why? Why? Why? What is the need for

00:09:53--> 00:09:54

a 5 year old child to wear a

00:09:54--> 00:09:56

towel on his head? This is the other

00:09:57--> 00:09:57

this is the akhlaq.

00:09:58--> 00:10:00

This is the the the the izzah for

00:10:00--> 00:10:01

the malaam,

00:10:01--> 00:10:03

izzah for the elm, izzah for the for

00:10:03--> 00:10:04

for the for the for

00:10:05--> 00:10:06

the for the place of the of the

00:10:06--> 00:10:07

elm, which is the masjid.

00:10:10--> 00:10:10

Right?

00:10:11--> 00:10:13

Did Muhammad Ali also play? Of course, he

00:10:13--> 00:10:14

played. He was a kid. He was working.

00:10:14--> 00:10:17

He wanna play. Why not? But did he

00:10:17--> 00:10:18

play the masjid? No.

00:10:24--> 00:10:26

He is sent by his mother. He's around

00:10:26--> 00:10:27

6 years old.

00:10:27--> 00:10:29

Now Imam Malik had a,

00:10:30--> 00:10:32

system where he would give dars of hadith

00:10:32--> 00:10:34

from Assur to Maghrib, which is a long

00:10:34--> 00:10:34

time.

00:10:35--> 00:10:37

Outside in in the in the courtyard of

00:10:37--> 00:10:39

the Majid the Majid Nawwish Sharif. Because Imam

00:10:39--> 00:10:41

Malik was the Imam Abu Dhabi the Majid

00:10:41--> 00:10:41

Nawwish.

00:10:42--> 00:10:45

And then after, he would give darshan insight.

00:10:46--> 00:10:48

So he's sitting there

00:10:49--> 00:10:51

in his, and he sees a little kid

00:10:51--> 00:10:53

who comes and sits right in front of

00:10:53--> 00:10:53

him.

00:10:54--> 00:10:56

And his little kid is with his finger,

00:10:56--> 00:10:58

he is doodling in the sand. It's all

00:10:58--> 00:11:00

sand floor. There's no carpet and so on.

00:11:00--> 00:11:02

So this kid is, you know, scribbling

00:11:02--> 00:11:03

in the sand.

00:11:04--> 00:11:06

Now if Malik notices this, he does not

00:11:06--> 00:11:07

like it, but he keeps quiet.

00:11:09--> 00:11:11

Whole dust finished, maybe hour and a half,

00:11:11--> 00:11:12

maybe 2 hours.

00:11:13--> 00:11:14

Then they pray Maghrib.

00:11:15--> 00:11:16

And after Maghrib,

00:11:17--> 00:11:18

as they are settling down, this kid comes.

00:11:18--> 00:11:20

He says salaam. He says,

00:11:20--> 00:11:22

I have come from so and so

00:11:23--> 00:11:25

to study under you, so please accept me

00:11:25--> 00:11:26

as your student.

00:11:27--> 00:11:29

Said sorry. I don't like you. I will

00:11:29--> 00:11:30

not accept.

00:11:32--> 00:11:33

So this kid starts crying. He said he

00:11:33--> 00:11:35

said, why why what did I do? He

00:11:35--> 00:11:36

said, you are not serious.

00:11:37--> 00:11:39

Imagine, 6 year old kid, he's telling you

00:11:39--> 00:11:40

you're not serious.

00:11:43--> 00:11:45

He said, sir, please, what did I do?

00:11:45--> 00:11:47

He said, I saw in that hole that's

00:11:47--> 00:11:49

you are playing in the sand.

00:11:50--> 00:11:52

This 6 year old kid session, I was

00:11:52--> 00:11:53

not playing in the sand. I was memorizing.

00:11:55--> 00:11:57

I was memorizing your

00:12:13--> 00:12:15

And this 6 year old kid, Alhamdulillah,

00:12:17--> 00:12:19

starts at 2 hours, the entire

00:12:21--> 00:12:23

this kid repeats.

00:12:24--> 00:12:24

Amazing

00:12:25--> 00:12:26

memory.

00:12:27--> 00:12:29

That I have to cover 1 page of

00:12:29--> 00:12:31

the book when I'm reading. Otherwise, it imprints

00:12:31--> 00:12:32

on my mind.

00:12:32--> 00:12:34

Can I give a memory like this? Right?

00:12:34--> 00:12:37

So he repeated the entire thus, he heard

00:12:37--> 00:12:38

it only one time.

00:12:39--> 00:12:41

Imam Malik hugged him. He kissed him. He

00:12:41--> 00:12:43

accepted him as his as his, student, and

00:12:43--> 00:12:45

Imam Shafir Abduladeh was a student of.

00:12:47--> 00:12:50

I'm telling you about little kids who went

00:12:50--> 00:12:52

to the Masjid to study and how they

00:12:52--> 00:12:54

studied. This is our standard. This is our

00:12:54--> 00:12:54

bid.

00:12:55--> 00:12:56

These are our.

00:12:58--> 00:12:59

Right? Our

00:13:00--> 00:13:01

our our nasal does not come from from

00:13:01--> 00:13:03

blood. It comes from ill,

00:13:04--> 00:13:07

from knowledge. These are our ancestors. Alhamdulillah.

00:13:10--> 00:13:12

My brothers and sisters, I seriously seriously

00:13:14--> 00:13:15

I tell you I love this budget.

00:13:16--> 00:13:18

I love all of you. May Allah bless

00:13:18--> 00:13:18

you.

00:13:20--> 00:13:22

So what I'm saying to you is for

00:13:22--> 00:13:22

your

00:13:23--> 00:13:24

benefit.

00:13:24--> 00:13:26

For the benefit of your children.

00:13:27--> 00:13:29

Please bring them to the masjid, but train

00:13:29--> 00:13:31

them how to be in the masjid.

00:13:32--> 00:13:34

It's not a matter of saying, you know,

00:13:34--> 00:13:35

they have a lot of energy. Most welcome,

00:13:35--> 00:13:37

please. Let them have the energy when they

00:13:37--> 00:13:39

come outside of the play. Even inside the

00:13:39--> 00:13:41

Masjid, they'll pray when there is no time

00:13:41--> 00:13:43

for salah. When the time for salah starts,

00:13:43--> 00:13:45

when the alarm is called, those children must

00:13:45--> 00:13:46

be inside

00:13:47--> 00:13:49

sitting next to you and learning how to

00:13:49--> 00:13:50

behave in the masjid.

00:13:51--> 00:13:53

And if you have some kids who can't

00:13:53--> 00:13:54

control or not like that, do not bring

00:13:54--> 00:13:56

them to the masjid, please.

00:13:57--> 00:14:00

Because remember, if you are doing something or

00:14:00--> 00:14:02

your children are doing something which is disturbing

00:14:02--> 00:14:04

the salah of other people, that sin is

00:14:04--> 00:14:06

on your head. Because of you, it is

00:14:06--> 00:14:08

happening. Their salah is getting ruined. People come

00:14:08--> 00:14:09

here to be with Allah

00:14:11--> 00:14:13

to connect to Allah

00:14:13--> 00:14:16

If my child is doing something just like

00:14:16--> 00:14:16

my phone,

00:14:18--> 00:14:19

if my phone is ringing, it's my responsibility.

00:14:23--> 00:14:25

Break your salah, turn the phone off, and

00:14:25--> 00:14:27

rejoin the salah and make up the salah.

00:14:28--> 00:14:30

But do not let your phone, ring to

00:14:30--> 00:14:31

disturb other people.

00:14:33--> 00:14:33

Right?

00:14:34--> 00:14:37

So, please, let us be serious with this.

00:14:37--> 00:14:39

It's all about.

00:14:40--> 00:14:42

So let us not have

00:14:42--> 00:14:43

children behaving like that.

00:14:45--> 00:14:46

Really, please.

00:14:47--> 00:14:48

For listening to me. May Allah

00:14:49--> 00:14:52

enable us to correct ourselves and to learn

00:14:52--> 00:14:53

the best

00:14:53--> 00:14:55

to be role models for the world, Insha'Allah.

00:14:53--> 00:14:55

to be role models for the world, Insha'Allah.
