The speaker discusses the history and importance of Islam, including the loss of people giving their lives only for Darthos of Rasool. The standard bearer is dangerous and cannot defend itself, and the process of cutting off arms is important. The speaker emphasizes the importance of not giving up and returning to one's original religion, not gathering what will be yours, and not doing anything until it is your success.

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			My brothers and sisters,
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			when we read the Seera of Rasool,
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:26
			when you read the history of Islam,
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			the thing that strikes at least strikes me
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:33
			is
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			the number of people
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:41
			who gave their lives
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			only for the karabah.
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			Not for land, not for
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			freedom from this or that, not for power,
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			not for money,
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:56
			not for property.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			Only for the.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			The first
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:08
			shahid, the first martyr in Islam,
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			as we know,
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11
			is
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			Saydah Sumayya bint Hayat
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:17
			the mother
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			of Omar Ibn Yasir, followed
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			a
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:26
			short while after
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:29
			by her husband,
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			Yasser Oderan.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			And Abu Jahal, who
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			killed both of them,
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:44
			He killed
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			by spearing her,
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			and he killed
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:53
			even more horribly, if there is a way
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:54
			of saying that or comparing,
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			by dismembering him, by tying
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:01
			his limbs to horses,
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			4 horses and tearing them apart.
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:10
			You know, even to say this seems like
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:11
			a fantasy.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13
			Imagine it happening to somebody,
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:16
			and that does not instantly kill you.
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			It just takes away your arms and legs.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			The body is still there. You're alive.
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:23
			We don't know how long it takes to
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:23
			die.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:30
			And all that they had to do to
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:32
			escape that was to say, we leave the
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			deen of Muhammad.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			As a matter of fact, his son,
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			Sayidina
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:42
			did that.
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			He saw this happening in front of his
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:48
			eyes. Abuja continued to torture him, and he
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:50
			said, give up the. He said, give it
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:50
			up.
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:54
			Then he went to.
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:55
			He was freed. Fine.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:56
			Go.
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:59
			Then he went to and he said, yeah,
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:00
			I have done this.
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:04
			I could not bear the pain. I could
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:06
			not bear the suffering, and I said this.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:09
			Rasool, Rasool, Rasool, said to him, what was
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:11
			in your heart? He said my heart was.
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:15
			So Rasool rasoolam said then there is no
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:15
			problem.
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:20
			So there was a legitimate way out of
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:20
			this.
		
00:03:22 --> 00:03:24
			Now I'm not comparing the Sahabi to Sahabi.
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:26
			This is for Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. But
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			I'm just saying
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:32
			that the same way was also available to
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:33
			his parents.
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:36
			They did not take it.
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:39
			They did not take it.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:46
			We have Musaib Nawa, the
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:51
			ambassador, the teacher,
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:56
			the the emissary, the n y of Rasulullah
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:59
			who is sent to Madinah.
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:01
			Musa ibn Omar Radialanu,
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:04
			one of the wealthiest of the Sahaba,
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:08
			young man, maybe 17, maybe 18 years old,
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			Very wealthy. His mother loved him. She's
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:14
			literally showered wealth on him.
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:16
			He was very fond of
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:19
			beautiful clothes and beautiful perfumes and so on
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:21
			and so forth. They used to say that
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:23
			if went down a road and he went
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			after when you came down, you could smell
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:26
			the perfume. So so,
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:27
			you know
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:31
			and when he accepted Islam, his mother
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:34
			locked him up, tortured him,
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:37
			took away everything he had.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:41
			And finally, she threw him out of the
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:42
			house. And as he was going, he said,
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:44
			no. No. These clothes you are wearing also
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:45
			belong to me.
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:47
			You cannot go with these clothes. Take the
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:48
			clothes off.
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:51
			And she allowed him to take one sheet
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:54
			of cloth to wrap to wrap wrap himself
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:55
			with.
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			Because her thinking was very simple. Here is
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:00
			this boy who has grown up in the
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			lap of luxury. Take away the money. He'll
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			come back to, you know,
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:05
			come back to the to
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:07
			the, according to her, the right path.
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			Didn't happen.
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:14
			He went with their one sheet of cloth,
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:15
			and
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:16
			Rasulullah sent him
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:21
			to Madirah Munawar as his emissary as his
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:21
			representative.
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			And there among the
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			many, many Sahaba who accepted Islam on his
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			hand was Sa'ad bin.
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:38
			The Sahabi who when he died, when he
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			was shayed in the
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			battle of Khanda, Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:44
			the the throne of Allah
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:47
			shook
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			for the death of Saad bin Mahad.
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:53
			He accepted Islam at the hand of Musa
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:55
			ibn Nawar, 18 year old boy.
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:00
			And Usaid bin Hudayr,
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			one of the greatest of the Quran
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:07
			and many of the Sahaba, practically almost everybody
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:08
			in Madinah,
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:09
			all the Sahaba,
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:12
			accept Islam at the end of Musa.
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:16
			Battle of Uhud,
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:19
			he is the standard bearer. He is the
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:20
			one carrying the
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:22
			banner of Islam
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:24
			on behalf of Rasulullah.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:29
			But the standard bearer in these wars, in
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:32
			these medieval wars and pre medieval wars,
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:37
			His only job was to keep the standard
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:39
			flying. He was not a he was not
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:40
			a soldier. He would not be fighting
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:43
			because
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:45
			the standard is the
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:48
			soul of the army. When they when the
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			soldiers are fighting, they are looking to see
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:51
			if my flag is still up.
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:53
			If the flag is still up, they continue
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54
			to fight. If the flag has fallen,
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:57
			it takes away the morale of the soldiers.
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:00
			So the the the job of the standard
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:04
			bearer is extremely, extremely important, and it's also
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:07
			extremely dangerous. And he cannot fight. He cannot
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:07
			defend himself.
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:11
			So his own brother soldier,
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			you would have 2 or 3 of them
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:15
			who will be around him.
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:19
			Now in the case of and all
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:22
			that, they surrounded him, the enemy,
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:24
			and he was holding the battle
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			standard with his hand and they chopped off
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:27
			his right hand.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:31
			He did not let the standard fall. He
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:33
			grabbed it with his left hand. They chopped
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			off his left hand.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:37
			Then he tried to hold the standard with
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			the stumps of his arms
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:43
			and he speared him from the back.
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:50
			Today, if a little you know, you get
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:51
			a little cut.
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			I sometimes think about these things. You get
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:55
			a little cut.
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:59
			These were people, their arm cut off, their
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:01
			leg cut off. They didn't bother about it.
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:03
			One miserable cut in our
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			you know? Has given us the resources, given
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:09
			us the facility and medical treatments, so nothing
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:10
			wrong in there. But think about this.
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:13
			It's easy to say they chopped off his
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:14
			hand chop. What does it mean chopped off
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:14
			his
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:17
			hand? One cut, you get one paper cut.
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:18
			Forget about anything else. You're not in a
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			war. One paper cut, you get your finger.
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:22
			You you think about it for 10 days.
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			And that is how Musa ibn Omar Odehlaanhu,
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:28
			he died.
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:46
			In the battle of Mota.
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:48
			And Rasul predicted.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:51
			He sent Zayd bin Haritha. He said, this
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:53
			is the amir of this jawat.
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:55
			And he says, if he falls,
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:56
			Abdullah
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:58
			will take over and Abdullah will
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:01
			take over.
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:05
			And if he also falls, then you choose
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:06
			your own.
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:08
			Amir.
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:12
			Now when Rasool says if he falls, it
		
00:09:12 --> 00:09:13
			means he will fall.
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:16
			And so it happened.
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:17
			They also knew that.
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:20
			They didn't say, no, no, no. Excuse me.
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:21
			You say that. I'm not going. No.
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:25
			In
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:30
			that same battle, the
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:33
			brother elder brother,
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:36
			Again, both his arms got cut off.
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:37
			They
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:37
			asked
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:38
			him,
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:40
			Allah gave him wings.
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:42
			That's why he's called.
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:50
			1 after the other.
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:57
			He is the imam. He's reading
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:58
			salah,
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			reciting Quran.
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:03
			The man who is
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:06
			Llanatul Ali,
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			he has a dagger which he has
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:11
			soaked in poison.
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			He came and slashed Saeedullah to
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:15
			cut his belly.
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:20
			And then he slashed 11 or 13 more
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:21
			people.
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:24
			He stabbed and slashed them before he was
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:24
			overpowered.
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:27
			In Madinah,
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:35
			So his daughter, our mother, Hafsa bint,
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:37
			Umar ibn Khattar
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:39
			the wife of Rasulullah,
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:42
			she says to him, yeah, my father, you
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:44
			are asking for dua, for Allah to give
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:46
			you sha'ada, and you are in Badinah.
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:49
			The frontier is in Iraq.
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:53
			The frontier is in is is in,
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56
			in in, near, near Iran.
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:01
			Said, my job is to ask Allah.
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:04
			It is for Allah to give.
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:08
			And Allah gave him shaadah in Madinah,
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:11
			on the muzalla, in Masjid and Abu al
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:11
			Sharif.
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:16
			When you go to Madinah Manawalah,
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:19
			Masjid Nabi, may Allah gives us give us
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:20
			the opportunity to go again and again.
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:23
			And when you go into rial jannah, the
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:25
			member of Rasool Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, not
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27
			where the imam is praying today. In in
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:28
			the other jannah, the member of
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:30
			this is where.
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:32
			That is where.
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:36
			That is where he was leading salah,
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:38
			next to the member.
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:45
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:49
			I mean, I can go on endlessly. There
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:50
			is not one.
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:54
			And through time, it's not This this did
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:55
			not I gave you the names of sahaba,
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:57
			but this did not end with the sahaba.
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:00
			It continued through the ages,
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:04
			and it is continuing until today.
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:09
			The Muslims in Bosnia in Bosnia my brother
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:10
			is here.
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:12
			Why were they killed? How what?
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:15
			Because they said, Shadrach,
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:19
			and all they had to do
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:23
			to escape being killed, to escape being
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:24
			their property
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:25
			destroyed,
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:28
			their lives wiped out, all they needed to
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:30
			do was to say, I leave Islam.
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:32
			True?
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:36
			Because I leave Islam. Forget about this. I'm
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:39
			not interested. How did they return to your
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:42
			The original religion. Yeah. Return to your original
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:42
			religion.
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:46
			Okay. Fine. Good. I returned to my original
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:46
			religion. Finished.
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:52
			Listen.
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:58
			I have spoken to some Bosnians,
		
00:12:58 --> 00:12:59
			and one of them told me,
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:04
			They said, Sheikh, we knew nothing about Islam.
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:05
			Nothing.
		
00:13:06 --> 00:13:08
			If you ask us what is the, some
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:10
			of us, we did not even know to
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:11
			say the.
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:13
			But we knew we are Muslim.
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:19
			We knew we're Muslim, and that we will
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:20
			not give up.
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:24
			What does
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:25
			Allah
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:28
			do?
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:33
			Maybe that person who did not even know
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:35
			the Kalima, if he had died a normal
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:37
			death, we don't know what happened to him.
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:39
			But he died shayid feezavillah.
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:43
			Because he has died only because he's Muslim.
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:47
			And this continues,
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:51
			and today we are seeing that happening in
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:52
			Palestine.
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:57
			For the world,
		
00:13:58 --> 00:13:59
			they have nothing.
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:02
			But you ask them, they said, we have
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:02
			Allah.
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:05
			We have Allah.
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:10
			This is the basirah.
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:14
			This is the basirah. This is the eye
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:16
			which sees the reality
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:19
			and the reality is the of Allah.
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:23
			It is not all this stuff we see.
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:25
			Think about that. Today,
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:26
			if
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:27
			we have,
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:29
			whether we have $10,000,000,000
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:31
			or 10,000,000,000
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:33
			or 1,000,000,000,000
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:34
			or 1,000,000,000,000,
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:36
			we have to leave
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:40
			it. We have to leave it. There's nobody
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:41
			who takes anything.
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:44
			Imagine we spend all our lives
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:49
			trying to gather as much stuff as we
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:50
			can, which we have to leave.
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:54
			Makes no sense.
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:58
			We're gathering all this so that we can
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			leave it. Does it make any sense?
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			If I know I have to leave something,
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:02
			why do I want it?
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:05
			To do what?
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:12
			This is what the Saab understood. The Saab
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:13
			I keep saying all the
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:17
			Nabi Salam made only one switch in the
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:18
			head. That's it.
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:21
			Nothing. The whole of Islam is one click,
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:22
			one switch.
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:25
			And that switch is from dunya to akhar.
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:30
			Don't gather what you will leave,
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:33
			gather what will be yours.
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:40
			Allah said what is with you, you have
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:41
			to leave it. It will perish.
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:43
			What is with Allah will remain.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:45
			So you look for what is with Allah.
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:48
			This is what the Sahaba did. That is
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:50
			why if you think about this, people like
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:51
			the names I gave you.
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:55
			Almost all the names I gave you
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:58
			were all Sahaba except for.
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:00
			All of them were Sahaba
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:02
			who died before Fatamaka.
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:06
			All of them.
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:08
			All the shohada of Ohad. Hamzah who
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:12
			died in Ohad.
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:14
			70 of
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:15
			them, they did not see victory.
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:17
			They did not see.
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:21
			The 14 who died in Badr,
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:23
			they did not see Fatah.
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:26
			The people who are who lived, they saw
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:27
			the the victory. The one who died didn't
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:28
			see the victory.
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:33
			Those who died in the battle of Motha,
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:34
			which I mentioned to you,
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:37
			they did not see. They did not see
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:37
			victory.
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:41
			Why did they still go? Why did they
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:43
			still fight? Why did they still continue?
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:47
			Why didn't they say, what is the good
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:49
			of me alone saying and doing something after
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:51
			all nobody else is doing it? What is
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:53
			the guarantee this will succeed?
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:57
			Because they knew it will succeed because I
		
00:16:57 --> 00:17:00
			am my success and failure is with Allah.
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:00
			It's not here.
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:04
			I'm not talking about this battle whether I
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:05
			will win it or I will lose it.
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:07
			I'm not talking about this deal whether it
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:08
			goes through, it doesn't go through.
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:11
			My deal is with Allah that if Allah
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:13
			accepts me, this whole world, whatever is happening
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:14
			here, make no difference.
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:22
			That is the switch. This is the change
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:24
			in our heads, in our hearts we needed
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:25
			to make,
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:26
			which is
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:27
			to
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:29
			give and precedence to the.
		
00:17:32 --> 00:17:33
			And that is why I
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:36
			want to end with this, something which my
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:37
			brother here sent me today.
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:40
			He said, remember
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:43
			that somebody died,
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:46
			somebody shed his blood
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:48
			so that you could be Muslim.
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:51
			Somebody shed his blood
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:53
			so that I could be Muslim.
		
00:17:55 --> 00:17:56
			And, SubhanAllah,
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:58
			the names of these people who shed their
		
00:17:58 --> 00:17:59
			blood,
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:04
			me and my whole family and my whole
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:05
			for a 1000 years
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:08
			is not enough,
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:11
			is not equal to one day
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:12
			in the life
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:13
			of
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:16
			or any of them.
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:18
			That entire life
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:22
			of 1000 years is not worth one single
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:22
			day
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:25
			in the life of another. And they died
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:25
			for us.
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:29
			They died for us. They died so that
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:31
			we could be Muslim.
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:34
			And that is why this Islam is a
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:36
			very, very, very responsibility. It's not a joke.
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:39
			It's not some fun and game thing I
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:41
			do if I feel like doing. I today
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:43
			is not convenient for me. I I'm not,
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:45
			you know, I don't have energy. I'm feeling
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:47
			lazy. No, no, no.
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:53
			We remember those because of whom we call
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:53
			ourselves Muslim.
		
00:18:54 --> 00:18:56
			And we try to live up to that
		
00:18:56 --> 00:18:57
			standard and we say, can we be worthy
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:59
			of these people? When we meet them
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			on the day of judgement? Will they agree
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:03
			to have us
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:05
			sit in their
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:07
			or will they say, no. No. Go away.
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:09
			We
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:13
			ask Allah to make us worthy of these
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:14
			people
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:16
			who did what they did so that we
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:17
			could be Muslim.
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:18
			We ask Allah
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:21
			to help us and make it easy for
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:22
			us and not to test us and to
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:24
			save us and to protect us. We ask
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:25
			Allah to
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:28
			help all the people who are oppressed. We
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:30
			ask Allah to help the especially our brothers
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:31
			and sisters in Palestine,
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:33
			in in Sudan,
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:36
			in, wherever they are who are being oppressed.
		
00:19:36 --> 00:19:37
			We ask
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:39
			to remove the oppressors,
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			to save them, and to save, save the
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:44
			oppressed and to give them victory inshallah.
