Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa salatu wa salam O Allah Shafi MBA well mousseline Muhammad Rasulullah, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam doesn't even appear on kathira from Nevada,
Nevada ancestors.
There are two of the
great ambia alemu salam of Allah subhanho wa Taala, who
really, really touched my heart.
When I read their stories, they're hugely inspiring.
And these two, Ibrahim alayhis, Salam and Musa
and the reason they inspire me
is because of this wonderful,
very, very beautiful
and very normal connection that they had with Allah subhanho wa Taala.
When you read the story of Musa alayhis salam, you see that Allah subhanaw taala chose to actually report conversations with what I read is Allah, Allah subhanho wa Taala reported this conversation between him and primary Salaam and he was very young, when he was very young. When he said Rebecca to heal Mota or show by show me how do you bring something back to life after his death, and then the whole thing the rest of the conversation, where Allah subhanaw taala showed him and then he asked him to, you know, catch for birds and tame them and so on and so on. So, now, also bluesoleil ceram there are these beautiful conversations that we are going to look at that at one of them today
inshallah, the, the sense of,
of all of this that we get from the lives of these drone Valley mussalam
is the one on one beautiful connection, that these prophets of Allah, Allah who had with him, for them, Allah subhanaw taala was not a remote being who they just worshiped, right? ritualistically worshiped whatever number of times a day that was made for for them. And then that was it. No, for them. Allah subhanaw taala was extremely real. Allah subhanaw taala was with them. While we're Marco Medina, Macondo.
Wow, caribou la human heavily rubbery
la him in come, well, I killed to zero all of these irons in the water which we have, were honest rantala mentioned and he said that he is with you wherever you are, he is closer to you than your jugular vein.
And that he is the closest to you even though you do not see him in different so. So out of the four and this was the fault. I'm not saying that muscle is alive and
they did not. But I'm saying that the sense of these I was for them. This was with them. This was real to them. Right to Busan is Allah.
Allah subhanaw taala, as I said, was not a remote entity, great and glorious and magnificent. Who they just worshiped? And that was it. No, this was Allah was was real to them. They they talked to Allah subhanho wa Taala. They asked him questions. You know, sometimes they told him there are difficulties in life. I don't use the word complaint because blms do not complain. But they, you know, they they had there were tough times difficult times. They asked Allah subhanaw taala
if they had any desire anything they wish they asked Allah subhanho wa Taala this was the beauty of the relationship of these
Musab with Allah subhana wa and I think this is the the biggest lesson that we can learn when we read about these Ayat of the Quran, and we read the stories of, of the of the NBA musella now, we game to the point where Busan Islam is working with is working in the in the
in the house of shrivel Islam, and he has married his daughter. And he spent the term that he had, which Sherman is set up that was like his birth for example was to serve him for eight years and grazing sheep and whatever he needed to do. And Sherman said to him, if you do make it 10 years, then this is your eyes on me. But eight years is what is our our is our agreement now.
dubray Salah, which of the two terms there is eight years or 10 years, musala salam work, and Jubilee Salaam said that he completed 10 years with that, and He therefore did ASR.
And this is also one of the great qualities of the MBA musallam something that we need to learn, which is always give more, give more. And this is what our solar system taught us. And he said, when you even for simple things, like weighing simple things, like dealing with customers dealing with each other, there is no said always give more, don't just give, what you should give, you should give that was justice, but also as a result said give more than what you should give, right, so this is the Hassan do on the side of of, of more rather than less. Now Alex model is telling us the history of mousai ceram, before Prophethood, so that we understand how musala Hassan was trained by
Allah subhanaw taala
unless we're gonna put him through different experiences, because musala salam would need that experience in his Dawa, and he needed to understand that society from the inside. Now, this is also I usually said, who had first hand knowledge of how that society work, because he was brought into that society at the lowest possible level as a slave. And then he rose to the highest possible level that somebody of his
caliber could have risen, which was as the minister of the crown because of the Federal because the the
position of royalty, of course, was only for the royal family. And usually salon goes to the next highest position that he could have risen to.
Important thing here for us to understand is that in life, we also go through difficulties, right, we also go through difficulties we upset now, think about this in this way, that insha Allah knows that these are difficulties and Allah subhanaw taala is putting us through to teach us lessons. And these lessons will be for our benefit going forward in life. Right? So anytime there's a difficulty, the tendency would be to complain about it and to you know, groan and moan about it and to say, oh, why is this happening to me, Michelle hamdu, lillahi Rabbil alameen, ask Allah subhanaw taala for his help and say, Allah, this comes to me, because you have written it for me, you have decreed it
for me. And I know that you will decree and you will write only that which is beneficial for me. Because we are the musical side, in your hand there is only higher in your hand, there is only the best. And therefore while I ask you to make this the best for me, and ask you for your help, so that I don't fail in this test. And then I need real and that idea. I learned the lesson that you want me to learn from this test. Think about this
subject the ambia were tested the most I was tested more than any of them you may think about that, that the kinds of tests we are talking about. It's very easy simply to read stories, right for the entertainment values, a nice stories and the land is a beautiful stories of the horror and stories from this from the Sunnah of Amazon seller. So there are good stories just in stories. They are also true stories. This isn't these are not, you know, fantasies, these are not these are my theology. But the purpose of the story is to learn a lesson from the story. So it's very important, take a small incident in the story, and then just sit and reflect on it. Put yourself in that place and say
how would you feel if you were in that place? Now think about that. We are looking at Musa alayhis salam he
was in this place in in Egypt and there was this whole interaction you know between him and
and that they were they were these two people fighting one was one from his own people and the one is right and the other one was and you should keep it was a Coptic Egyptian and
Musa Salam tried to intervene in that fight and accidentally hit the other man and the man died right now oh sorry Salam is on the on the run because he's being pursued Musa his life is in danger. And he has to leave Egypt and he does not even have Think about this. He does not even have time to bid farewell to his family to tell anyone where he is.
He just disappears. I think about his parents think about his family. They have no idea what happened rabies even alive or dead. Right out of the blue Suddenly, the man has got second thing is now himself. He has no time even to prepare for trial.
He can't take any clothes, he can't take any bedding. He can't take any food. He just has to run the way he was sad when he simply walked through the desert to those lands, all the way to Marion. And
in the process, he just wore out his shoes. Now imagine how many miles he would have, you know how many hundreds of miles he would have what, and alone by himself. Remember these are these are, even today, if you think of doing that, I definitely don't advise you to just walk off into the blue on your own, you probably will perish, right? And the chances even today of just perishing are pretty high. Now imagine in those days how things must have been right how they must have been, what kind of dangers and so on? How did you sleep? Or where did you sleep at night? How did you sleep at night? What did he find for food? What did he eat? Now again, remember also, that Moses had been
trained as a soldier. So he was he was a warrior, he was trained as a soldier, maybe had, you know, most people, in those days carried a personal weapon, if nothing else, it wouldn't, it would be a dagger.
You know, even if it wasn't a sword and spear, anything elaborate would be some kind of so you may be able to hear some small weapons, so maybe he he, you know, hunted some small animals or something and, and cook them and eat them.
Maybe he had a lot of hair that would have given him the knowledge of plants and so on. So he knew where to find water. He knew what plants to tweet things about this, think about this and say that how important for example, in our education of our children and so on It is to teach them these things, how to take care of themselves, how to be in nature, how to take care of themselves, how to deal with the, with all kinds of, you know, potential, hardship, and so on and so forth. It's very important also to look at these things from this perspective. Second thing is, emotionally that think about him here as a man suddenly from being a prince in the royal family of being a prince in
the Royal Palace. He is now a fugitive running for his life, right so strong from the top, he comes right down to the bottom and that happens instantly. In a matter of just one incident. The whole thing may not have taken even 10 minutes, but that's it his life is as far as his life is concerned it is over. He is he's in in grave danger. And he is threatened his life is threatened and his life is over. Now, this is a situation of muscley Salah, the water what is happening to him inside emotionally How is he dealing with it? What does he feel? What does he how does it affect his mind? What is his source of sustenance so sisters, of course, is Allah subhanaw taala jello. So these are
the things to for us to think about. Then he reaches Maria and he is find these two ladies they are trying to grill to water their sheep and the others are not allowing them to do that. So he intervenes and he helped him to water the water the sheep. And then these ladies go and Musa is now he's you know, he's
thinking well, you know, I here's a situation I'm in this new country.
I hope I have somebody will help me What will happen to me, right? And then he sits there and he makes his job. And he says Allah, whatever hire that can come to me from you.
I am the I'm afraid I'm I am in need of it right I'm in need of whatever benefit that you can send my way and the further loss rather than sends him now
until this time we are looking at hardship but after hardship comes ease. So when we are looking at hardship until now it was always thing not from here onwards is what the here onwards is because now he meets
he gets married. He has this protection of Chevrolet Salaam for 10 years, he's got a job he's got. He's got married, he has a home he's got he's got a family, who looks after him who loves him who respects him. So all of these good things now accompany him. You know, think about this. This is the issue of relationship. The reason I mentioned this to you and the story of Missouri Sarah and the and eventually set up and we look at Missouri said I'm sorry this is part of our lesson today for the life of the MBA. But in connection with that.
The point we must understand is that this whole religion of Islam is a religion of a relationship. The relationship between the ABD and his love jealousy. It's a one on one relationship. It has no intercession intercessor it has no intermediaries, not intercessor it has no intermediaries. There is no representative
Have God on earth to whom you talk to, instead of talking to a to Allah, there is no representative of God on earth,
whose forgiveness you seek, instead of seeking forgiveness to Allah, there is no representative of God on earth, before whom you confess your sins, instead of confessing to Allah, this is a relationship between the, with the slave and his Rob in his sustainer his maintainer is his creator, which is the relationship of complete and total yaqeen a relationship of huge dignity. Think of Just think about it in the sense that Allah subhanaw taala gave us so much dignity, that Allah said that even if you commit a sin, I think about that this is not even you're not even talking about the great and good people, right? So degree dignity for those who are pious and so we talk about dignity
for sinners. dignity for people who have disobeyed Allah have handled that. People like us who actually deserve a lot of punishment, people who deserve to be humiliated before Allah. But Allah said, No, even if you are committed sins, don't tell anybody about it. Tell me directly between me and you, in front of the people. I will hide your sins and I will give you a right Allah is a toggle. He is a far Rosano. Allah, Allah is the one who covers the seeds and farts, and he's the one who forgives them, even for the sinner Allah. Allah gave him enormous dignity. And Allah says there is no need to humiliate yourself before another person is no need to confess your sins to another
person. There is no need to go to another person and say I have sinned. Forgive me. No, you have sinned. Tell Allah about this and Allah knows already. Right? Imagine this is this beauty of this beautiful religion of ours. Allah gives dignity even to a sinner.
And that doesn't matter. Then I said, All Yeah, Eva Dr. Levine Rasul Allah for Allah unforeseen luck Natoma Rahmatullah in Allah you have to go by Jimmy Yeah, in 104 Rahim we know this beautiful I when Allah said say to them, yeah, Mohammed Salah, say to them, yeah, I By the way, all my slaves who
who have done
transgressed against themselves, a levina, assalamu, Allah and those who have transgressed against themselves, my slaves who have transgressed against themselves, do not lose hope and do not lose faith in the mercy of Allah. Verily, am truly a lot of animal data, forgives all sins and He is the most forgiving and most merciful.
This is Allah so handled, and this is the title of that Mashallah Salaam had with Allah subhanho wa Taala that a grammar lesson I don't know how to the last minute as well. But for the stories of the court, these are the two ambia whose stories again, we again, so many times, that is what the Rahim itself, in the name of grammar is. His story appears so many times Mozart is alive is in 28 of the 30 jewels of the car. And let's round that up. These are very important and biale ambia verla, very important, Russell's of Allah. And Allah subhanaw taala told us their story in great detail, because he loved them and they loved him. And because Allah subhanaw taala wants us to learn from their
stories, so that we can adopt them to think about that, that see the importance of dialogue with Allah, our ancestors.
Remember this, that we entered Islam by making a statement and by making a covenant about a relationship and that relationship is the relationship between us and Allah subhana wa, how do you enter Islam? You enter Islam by saying I shall do Allah Allah, Allah, Allah, wa shadow now Mohammed also look, I bear witness and this is my heart, and I'm saying it to my lips, I will live my life like that. I bear witness that there is no one worthy of worship except Allah. And that Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is the Messenger of Allah Subhana Allah. This is how we begin that relationship. Shall Allah Allah Allah Allah, wa shawanna Mohammed, this is how we come into the come
into Islam. And then how do what is the evidence of that? What is the proof of that? How do we prove that we prove that Salah, what is Allah? Allah subhanaw taala said Akiko salata, de Vickery again, I had which was sent to Musa a Sarah establish the salah for my Zika How do I do that by Rob? Son Luke Omar it moon usili our kumbhakarna Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam
said spray as you have seen me pray. So the hokum is from Allah, the method is from Rasul Allah. Allah Subhana dada dada is NaVi la Serra, and we learn from him without the method.
Hong Kong cannot be completed and cannot be
obeyed and that is the importance of the position of Rasul Allah is set up. So we are talking about we enter Islam by accepting and owning this beautiful relationship of honor. And then we remain in Islam. And this is the evidence of our being Muslims that we worship Allah subhanho wa Taala in the way that wahama sallallahu alayhi wa sallam showed us we don't worship Allah subhanaw taala in any way we please, it might please me to worship Allah subhanho wa Taala in a different way. For example, I might say that I also told us that the slave is closest to Allah in sudo and therefore I might say well, you know what, I'm going to start my Salah in such that not in Korea, which is the
furthest distance from sudo I'm going to start my Salah in sudo and I will end my slides. I will just pick one such that. And in this saga I will read and decide and say whatever I want and then I will get up on my slide over Salah is not your Salah is not even done yours there is no Salah, there is no Salah, what is Salah, Salah is to do it the way I saw the lights on Medicinal Products, the way in which there is them there is no there is no that's awesome.
So we enter Islam by accepting and owning a relationship, we remain Islam with that relationship and then remember when we go into our grave when we die,
what is the first question that is asked? What is the first question that the Leica will ask us? mandra book? Who is your Rob?
They will not say who is Abu Dhabi No. They are not asking you for a definition.
They are not asking you for information.
They are asking you about your relationship with Allah mandra buka Who is your
they know who is
the game on his order? He sent them
my mandra boo is your what is the answer Robbie Allah
my Robin
happy May Allah decree that this is the answer we give when this question is asked for us. My brother and sister this Dean is a dean of a relationship. Remember, I like all relationships, relationships are like plants, they like plants. If you plant the if you plant a plant
then what
you need to feed it and need to water
you need to give it the plant food,
the fertilizer and you need to water the plant. If you do that, the plant will grow it will flower it will fruit it will give you a beautiful aroma, it will give you sweet fruit, it will be something which will be a delight to your eyes.
But if you don't do that, if you do not fertilize it and if you do not water it, what will happen
gradually the plant will shrivel and the plant will dry. And eventually if you ignore it long enough, the plant will die.
Now a relationship is like that every relationship even in this life, relationships with our friends relationship with our parents relationship with our children relationship with our, with our spouses, they're all like plants, they all need to be watered, they all need to be taken care of. They all need for you to be constantly aware of them for you to attend to them for you to go look after them.
Right I'm I'm just started planting a garden here. And every alternate day now I have to water the garden because it's very hot.
It takes me an hour and a half
of watering.
But I know if I want that garden to grow and it's expensive plants are expensive.
So it's quite a quite a quite an amount of money that's been put into it.
And I want it to grow and there are some flowers which are very beautiful. Some of my neighbor's going to say we love your flowers. So the point I'm making is that if I want that to happen if I want those flowers to happen if I want those plants to blow, then that hour have every opportunity I have to give it
I can't say today I'm so busy. No but I have I have to go on a holiday for 20 days. No, no, no.
whatever needs to be done needs to be done.
So I have to spend the time they spend the time with those plants. point that I'm making is any relationships requires attention. any relationship requires contact. any relationship requires your presence in it.
It requires whatever is needed to develop and nurture that relationship. So also our relationship with Allah, so also our relationship with the service itself. It needs our presence in the relationship. It needs our effort to nurture that relationship.
That's the question I asked myself and that's the question I request you to ask yourself.
What is the effort you're making?
Please get very,
very specific about it. Like metrics, measure it and say, how many hours a day do I spend
with Allah? meaning in the event of Allah, whether it is Salah, or reciting for or making Vicar or whatever?
How many times how many hours how many minutes
and then monitor yourself throughout the day.
How connected Are you with Allah subhanho wa Taala.
I always tell people talk to Allah. Talk to Allah. Will Allah subhanho wa Taala understand the language all languages are signs of Allah, they are able to love.
So talk to a lot of amateur in your own language.
Praise Him glorify Him, thank him. Ask him what his what his mercy and His forgiveness. Just Marvel is just one layer, like what things you create. You know, I put out some bird feeders, the number of birds that come to those feeders. The people my friends who live around here, they said, We did not even know that there are so many birds in this place. So many different birds, we never saw them. Sure. So Hamdulillah, I have now created an album in which I keep posting photos and those of you who are on the group should have seen the album if you're not on the group, get on the group and see the album.
Just simple things like this.
You put out to feed and you get a huge number of words. And then the whole the behavior of those words just now if someone is starting, and the first batch of chicks has hatched so we've got I've got is young of four or five different species and the way those young behave swala birds also have millennials who believe on on bugging the daylights out of the parent for food, even though they're perfectly capable of getting the food themselves. It's very amusing. I mean, I have great fun I just you know I it's I put the feeder just outside my study window. So while I'm working all day, I look at look out the window is fantastic. You know entertainment for me, I don't need any television, I
don't need anything, I just see the hotel. And I'm constantly asking Allah, Allah to Allah. Look at this thing, Allah subhanaw taala put me to feed those words. So I go spend the money, I go buy this stuff by the seed, I get it on my airport in the garden
and bring it home, I put it into the feeders.
Right?
Now what is the lesson? The lesson is that just like a lot of manual data put me as the Zarya as the means to feed his creatures unless something else, some other math loop of his as the Zarya to feed me. So the board is not worried about the food, why should I worry about my food?
This is the whole the whole point of studying the lives of the MBA mussalam and reading and so on. So who is this to help us to understand
that when we
that when we read the stories, put yourself in that space,
and think about and say if I was in the place of
walking across this desert, not knowing where to go, who told him where we did have a map to go from Egypt to to Birgit
whose word in the way?
What was he following with with geo tracking was he doing?
What he went, and he arrived at the right place at the right time.
This is what a lot of our data wants us to see, and reflect and appreciate. And that's what I want you to do. I want you to think about these things and say, don't just mechanically, you know, listen to the lecture or mechanically read the stories, put yourself in that space and say, in that space, what would I have done? What would be my situation? What would I do?
So masala Salaam, Allah, Allah made him traveling the land, so that he could learn his job was as the shepherd of sheep. Now I have done a whole lecture on the lessons to be learned from as a shepherd of sheep. Very interesting how Allah subhanaw taala made a lot of almost every note we
should have
mentioned this, he said every Navy was a shepherd of sheep. Because the the lessons you learn from that including that which also
himself. But as soon as i said i'm also was a shepherd of sheep. In his in his childhood, he used to be used to graze is the sheep of,
of his of his, of his family and of the ones now
why because the sheep, sheep are the weakest of our livestock, the shepherd has to be very alert to protect his sheep. He can't just leave the sheep also run off here and there they wander here and there. They don't have a particularly great sense of direction, so they go and get lost. So the shepherd cannot afford to be forgetful he can just go to sleep and leave the sheep. Next thing he knows the sheep are all gone, he has no idea how to find them. Right? And finally, no matter what does she do, she cannot stand severe punishment. So the jumper takes it takes us you can watch this the part that she pulled out. So the shepherd has to have a lot of patience and suburb, and he
cannot afford to hit the sheep with anger because the sheep might die. As soon as I mentioned this, he said that the shepherds of camels by nature have to be they become arrogant because they are dealing with an arrogant animal, that the camel always has this very supercilious expression on its face. And it's a it's a tough animal. It's a big animal. It's a tough animal, it's a dangerous animal. A cow can easily kill a person and sometimes they do they get you know, they go into the equivalent of a mass that elephant goes into the breeding season and the big males are, they are massive and they are no one kick will will that's the end of it. knock your head off. So that when
they is the shepherd of camels, if he has to, even if he has to hit a camel, he has written the camel extremely hard for the gamma lever to register that something has happened.
So the by nature, the shepherds of camels, they become very arrogant people, horses again, you know, when you when a man is sitting on a horse, by nature, because he's high up is sitting on this very noble creature. It gives him a sense of pride.
But not a shepherd of sheep. shepherds of sheep are humble, they are protective, they are alert. They are kind and compassionate, how many times he was you know, in my country, I've seen this many times, I've seen shepherds actually carrying a sheep on their shoulders. And sometimes they're moving the whole flock and his little, little baby
which can't keep up.
So the shepherd,
Lambie picks it up, and he puts it drops it on his shoulders.
And he walks with the sheep, he what he does is leave the sheep there and leave the lamb there to die. No, he does that.
So this is the the the nature of this is what I did for myself. Because unless I knew who what kind of people the one is right what they were wearing, much like this, like she would they would go off and do some things. And they will put to get themselves into trouble. And then they would blame each other and all kinds of stuff. And they you know, they might end up with one of the hardest slides going because these people they would not listen to him. And then they would argue with him and all sorts of things that they did, all of which were obviously not easy on him. But yet he had to have the patience with various people. What you got to do you got he got to walk away, walk away from
them, you can't just go he has to give them he has to look after the USN for them.
Now, again, think of the other side.
It was sent to the oldest monarchy
of the time or the or the biggest monarchy of the time, the Pharaoh of Egypt, who had declared himself to be divine. Now interestingly, the Federer is not the only one or declare himself wi in this, this tendency to declare themselves divine seems to have been a very kingly thing with many kings including many Muslim kings, there are many Muslim kings who used to have people worshipping them they had people who would come standard greeting farmers to make such that was a king and this was a Muslim king who
had people putting their heads on the foreheads on the floor, out of you know so called respect for him Allah protect us, but this is what he did. Now, the fear of the pharaohs they ruled over the Empire on the upper and lower Nile for centuries, and their wealth was legendary. Now just think of I don't know how many of you have been to the to Giza, in in outside of Cairo, where the pyramids are, and if the first impression you get when you go there. Now apart from the fact that every
then all the people that are they try to find you but the point is that the first impression you get when you see the pyramids, is this thinking thing is to take our This is a that what must have been the wealth
Kings whose tombs were like this.
So this was a tomb that they made for themselves. And many of those pyramids were or if not all, they were made while the king was alive, because he was building it for himself. Imagine what kind of well that that what was what was this palace of in light of palaces must have been I mean, obviously he wouldn't didn't have one. So what must his palaces have been like? What must What? How did he dress what kind of you know gold and silver and whatnot? I imagine I mean, the kind of wealth. Egypt was the the rice bowl or the bread bowl of the world at the time, the entire Roman Empire of Egypt was to support
natural use, and these were the kings of Egypt. So this was legendary. Well, Musa alayhis salam was also sent to the bunnies, right? Who,
who had some signs of the Gambia, but who had mixed up their original Deen with a lot of local customs and traditions and whatnot. So they again also they had been living under oppression for so long, that they had lost their dignity and their values, and therefore they were lacking in character. Right this happened to them. Today, the same thing is happening to us Muslims, we have been living in, under in subjugation for so long, that we seem to have by and large, and for those who, to whom this does not apply all power to you melas won't really give you more strength. But for a lot of Muslims today, we have become cowardly. We don't stand up for our own rights, we have
become corrupt. We don't support each other, we sneak on each other, right, all kinds of evils which are the evils off of a slavish mentality. We have no, there are no chains on our ankles and wrists, at least not yet. Right? But the stains are here in the head and in the heart. There is the heart is filled with fear of human beings, fear of people with cowardice with shameless cowardice. Instead of having the dignity of hearing only Allah subhanho wa Taala Jelena were easily intimidated, and we live in fear of people instead of giving in with the concern that Allah Subhana Allah must not be displeased with us. I think about this ban of Bani Israel, who was fighting with Egyptian, he
immediately the next day, he's fighting with another Boss, I know that you should. And when Musa insulin goes there, he immediately says you want to kill me, like you kill the other man yesterday.
So he has no problem betraying someone who saved his life just one day before.
Now, this happens to people who live in oppression, who lose their nobility and character, when they have been exposed to this divide and rule policy for a long time. And they become fractured, and they become incapable of loyalty and compassion and concern. And they become totally selfish. And as I said, this is our condition is the condition of Muslims today. Globally speaking, we have lost the natural nobility, that used to be our signature, once upon a time, we have lost that dignity. And consequently, we have lost respect in the communities in which we live. As I said, again, I'm not making a general statement. I'm not saying everybody like that. But the majority of us are like
that, whether we like to accept it or not. Now Moser is Sarah,
what came to such people, and it was his huge.
It was his huge task for him that he had, you know, that he had given
to not just to
take these people out of slavery and so on, but also to,
you know, to,
to give them Saudis qualities back, to help them to come back to
the right path, with at least some of these qualities, and this is the thing that I
that I want to
that I want to emphasize and say that you know, at the end of the day, we live or die, by our values, we are only as good as our values. And if you allow our values to get compromised, then you will find that no matter how much of wealth you might have, no matter how much you have, in what position and so on and so forth. If the values are gone, then we are finished. And therefore it's very important for us when we raise our children, and before children, literally we have to raise ourselves, many of us have been May Allah protect us and Allah forgive our parents. These values for many people, they will not even give it to them when they were being raised as children. So we have
to instill these values in ourselves and then communicate these values.
To the next generation, ask us Renata to help us to enable us to learn from the stories of the Emilio salah and to practice those things in our lives so that we regain the dignity that we had the dignity of courage, the dignity of Allah, the dignity of suffer the dignity of asking no one except Allah subhanho wa Taala the dignity of a relationship with Allah subhanaw taala when we talk to him, we love to be in his presence, gentle, gentle, and then we benefit from the knower and the liat of them have been in that way. Or salon I believe anyone and he was happy with me, but I don't think he was out of it.
