My dear brothers and sisters,

00:05:55 --> 00:05:56

may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless each and

00:05:56 --> 00:05:58

every single one of you.

00:05:59 --> 00:06:01

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala make us of

00:06:01 --> 00:06:02

those who listen and follow the best of

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

what they listen to. Today I wanted to

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

discuss with you

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

part of

00:06:10 --> 00:06:12

what many Muslims are celebrating around the world

00:06:14 --> 00:06:16

is the legacy of the prophet sallallahu alaihi

00:06:16 --> 00:06:17

wasallam.

00:06:18 --> 00:06:19

And people have

00:06:20 --> 00:06:20

different

00:06:21 --> 00:06:23

ways of doing that.

00:06:23 --> 00:06:25

And my intention is not to

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

critique or to

00:06:28 --> 00:06:30

talk about how people celebrate the legacy of

00:06:30 --> 00:06:33

the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam. But rather

00:06:33 --> 00:06:34

is to shed some light

00:06:35 --> 00:06:36

on the true

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

way or the the best way of celebrating

00:06:40 --> 00:06:42

the legacy of the prophet, salallahu alaihi wa

00:06:42 --> 00:06:43

sallam?

00:06:43 --> 00:06:44

How did the prophet, salallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:06:45 --> 00:06:46

want wanted us to

00:06:47 --> 00:06:49

how did he want us to celebrate his

00:06:49 --> 00:06:51

legacy? What is it that the prophet, salallahu

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

alaihi wa sallam

00:06:52 --> 00:06:53

wanted or expected

00:06:54 --> 00:06:57

or was hoping for or praying for that

00:06:57 --> 00:06:59

those who truly love him

00:06:59 --> 00:07:00

and those who

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

come after him would do?

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

What did the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

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

tell the companions

00:07:09 --> 00:07:12

to do with regards to his to his

00:07:12 --> 00:07:14

tradition and his message and what he left

00:07:14 --> 00:07:15

behind?

00:07:16 --> 00:07:18

Now many of us are familiar

00:07:19 --> 00:07:20

with some of the primary

00:07:21 --> 00:07:24

instructions given by the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa

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

sallam.

00:07:25 --> 00:07:27

Today what I wanted to talk about as

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29

an introduction to this is to talk about

00:07:30 --> 00:07:31

the legacy itself.

00:07:34 --> 00:07:34

What highlights

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

the tradition and the legacy of the prophet

00:07:38 --> 00:07:39

shalallahu alaihi wa'ala? What what are the what

00:07:39 --> 00:07:41

are the primary objectives? What are the

00:07:42 --> 00:07:43

primary features

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

of the mission of the prophet shalallahu alaihi

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

wa'ala?

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

What did Allah send him?

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

The first and the most important, if I

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

was just to list

00:07:55 --> 00:07:57

10, what are the 10 top

00:07:57 --> 00:07:59

primary objectives or

00:08:03 --> 00:08:05

elements of the mission of the prophet, sallallahu

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

alaihi wa sallam. The number one and most

00:08:07 --> 00:08:09

important is whatever the prophet, sallallahu alaihi wa

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

sallam

00:08:18 --> 00:08:21

Worshipping none except Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:08:21 --> 00:08:24

The most critical of all is this objective.

00:08:26 --> 00:08:27

And the reason the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa

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

sallam did that was because there wasn't really

00:08:32 --> 00:08:34

a true representation of tawhid

00:08:34 --> 00:08:37

left with exception of very few people,

00:08:37 --> 00:08:40

here and there, scattered all over the place.

00:08:41 --> 00:08:43

And the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam said,

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

Allah azzawajal

00:08:44 --> 00:08:47

looked at the the the status or the

00:08:47 --> 00:08:49

the state of affairs of humanity at that

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

time.

00:08:53 --> 00:08:55

And Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala They earned Allah

00:08:55 --> 00:08:57

subhanahu wa ta'ala's wrath.

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

Allah wasn't approving of the way they were

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

seeking him subhanahu wa ta'ala. The way they

00:09:02 --> 00:09:05

were worshiping him, with the exception of few

00:09:05 --> 00:09:06

here and there,

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

from the people of the book. Very few.

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

Insignificant

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

number.

00:09:12 --> 00:09:13

Tawhid wasn't

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

prevalent. It was not widespread.

00:09:18 --> 00:09:19

As a matter of fact, it was

00:09:20 --> 00:09:21

the

00:09:21 --> 00:09:21

whatever

00:09:23 --> 00:09:24

is it was shirk.

00:09:25 --> 00:09:28

So the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam comes

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

with tawhid.

00:09:30 --> 00:09:31

So one of

00:09:31 --> 00:09:33

the primary one of the primary

00:09:34 --> 00:09:36

objectives of this of his mission is to

00:09:36 --> 00:09:37

restore tawhid, monotheism.

00:09:39 --> 00:09:40

And as I mentioned each one of them

00:09:40 --> 00:09:41

I don't wanna go through the list of

00:09:41 --> 00:09:43

those 10 things and then Okay. Each one

00:09:43 --> 00:09:45

And then come back to them. As we

00:09:45 --> 00:09:47

go through them we have to ask ourselves,

00:09:48 --> 00:09:50

how much how much understanding do I have

00:09:50 --> 00:09:51

of this particular

00:09:52 --> 00:09:54

part of his mission sallallahu alaihi wa sallam?

00:09:55 --> 00:09:57

How is it manifesting itself in my own

00:09:57 --> 00:09:59

life, in my relationship with Allah subhanahu wa

00:09:59 --> 00:10:00

ta'ala and fellow human beings?

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

How much of it am I assuming as

00:10:03 --> 00:10:05

my own personal responsibility

00:10:07 --> 00:10:08

To maintain in my own life, in the

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

life of my children and those who are

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

around me.

00:10:12 --> 00:10:14

Because we are supposed to be the ambassadors,

00:10:15 --> 00:10:16

the heirs,

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

the followers,

00:10:18 --> 00:10:19

the lovers

00:10:20 --> 00:10:22

of the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam.

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

And there isn't

00:10:25 --> 00:10:28

any other way to really show that love

00:10:28 --> 00:10:29

other than to assume

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

responsibility of being the ones that are supposed

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

to carry this. 1st and foremost we have

00:10:34 --> 00:10:36

to practice, we have to be an embodiment.

00:10:37 --> 00:10:38

Each and every single one of us has

00:10:38 --> 00:10:39

to embody

00:10:40 --> 00:10:41

each and every single one of these points.

00:10:41 --> 00:10:43

If we If you're sold on it, if

00:10:43 --> 00:10:44

you believe that this is part of the

00:10:44 --> 00:10:46

mission of the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam,

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

and if you disagree with any of these

00:10:48 --> 00:10:49

points that I'm presenting today,

00:10:50 --> 00:10:52

feel free to come and discuss it or

00:10:52 --> 00:10:55

or, you know, challenge it or correct me.

00:10:55 --> 00:10:56

I'm open.

00:10:58 --> 00:10:59

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

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

tells the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,

00:11:03 --> 00:11:04

he revealed him,

00:11:05 --> 00:11:06

say Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is the one

00:11:06 --> 00:11:08

and only, unlike any of his creations subhanahu

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

wa ta'ala. So tawhid is very important.

00:11:10 --> 00:11:12

It's not a secondary issue.

00:11:14 --> 00:11:16

It's not it's not, it's not something,

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

marginal.

00:11:19 --> 00:11:20

It's primary.

00:11:22 --> 00:11:23

As a matter of fact, it is the

00:11:23 --> 00:11:24

very

00:11:24 --> 00:11:25

reason

00:11:26 --> 00:11:28

Quraysh opposed the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:11:28 --> 00:11:30

rejected his message. So we have to be

00:11:30 --> 00:11:32

people who are committed to this

00:11:33 --> 00:11:34

belief and to hate.

00:11:36 --> 00:11:37

We have to be. And we have to

00:11:37 --> 00:11:40

make sure that our families and those who

00:11:40 --> 00:11:43

who whom we have any influence over

00:11:44 --> 00:11:45

live in accordance to this.

00:11:46 --> 00:11:48

They believe in none except Allah subhanahu wa

00:11:48 --> 00:11:50

ta'ala. The various elements of tawhid, this is

00:11:50 --> 00:11:51

not the,

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

the appropriate

00:11:54 --> 00:11:55

time to talk about. The point here is

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

not to talk about each and every single

00:11:57 --> 00:11:59

one of them. Number 2, the prophet shalallahu

00:11:59 --> 00:12:01

alaihi wa sallam was sent to mankind.

00:12:02 --> 00:12:03

His message is global.

00:12:04 --> 00:12:05

As a matter of fact, in the discussion

00:12:05 --> 00:12:07

that we were having multiple times this week

00:12:08 --> 00:12:10

with some of our prominent community members here,

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

this came up. The only one, the only

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

message, the only hope humanity has. The only

00:12:15 --> 00:12:17

prophet that came and said, I was sent

00:12:17 --> 00:12:20

to mankind, to everyone. His message was global,

00:12:20 --> 00:12:22

his message was universal sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:12:23 --> 00:12:26

He came as a guide to mankind, everyone.

00:12:28 --> 00:12:31

Who's supposed to assume that responsibility? The sahabar

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

algammalaihi alayhi did their part.

00:12:34 --> 00:12:36

They could've stayed in Mecca and Medina. They

00:12:36 --> 00:12:38

could've just had Arabia all to themselves and

00:12:38 --> 00:12:40

lived very well.

00:12:40 --> 00:12:43

They could have said, well enough with Sham

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

and Iraq. That's it. We have enough.

00:12:46 --> 00:12:47

It wasn't

00:12:48 --> 00:12:50

about expanding their territory. Because if you look

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

at Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman Ali, the way

00:12:52 --> 00:12:53

they lived.

00:12:54 --> 00:12:55

As a matter of fact,

00:12:56 --> 00:12:59

the more power they had, the more humble

00:12:59 --> 00:13:01

they became and the and the less interested

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

they were in this material world.

00:13:05 --> 00:13:08

So it wasn't about expanding their territory and

00:13:08 --> 00:13:09

their resources and wealth

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

and power. It was not about that. It

00:13:12 --> 00:13:14

was about delivering this message to as many

00:13:14 --> 00:13:17

people as possible because they assumed that responsibility.

00:13:18 --> 00:13:19

The prophet told them he

00:13:20 --> 00:13:23

entrusted them with this, balighuwani walu aa. Even

00:13:23 --> 00:13:25

if it's one verse, you have to convey

00:13:25 --> 00:13:27

this message and spread it. Why? Because it's

00:13:27 --> 00:13:28

universal.

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

And he salallahu alaihi wa sallam is not

00:13:31 --> 00:13:33

here to do that himself, he entrusted us

00:13:33 --> 00:13:34

with it.

00:13:35 --> 00:13:38

So carrying this message to mankind, delivering guidance,

00:13:38 --> 00:13:40

the guidance of the prophet salallahu alaihi wa

00:13:40 --> 00:13:41

sallam to mankind

00:13:43 --> 00:13:46

is a collective responsibility upon all of us.

00:13:47 --> 00:13:50

You either have to do da'wah or support

00:13:50 --> 00:13:51

da'wah.

00:13:52 --> 00:13:53

The worst thing that you can do is

00:13:53 --> 00:13:55

become an obstacle in the way of da'wah

00:13:55 --> 00:13:56

or a hindrance

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

or someone that actually compromises the da'wah of

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

other people.

00:14:01 --> 00:14:02

You don't wanna do that.

00:14:03 --> 00:14:06

Number 3, the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:14:07 --> 00:14:07

came

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

to spread justice.

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

And we unfortunately, the ummah of the prophet

00:14:17 --> 00:14:18

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:14:19 --> 00:14:21

that Allah as we just sent to mankind

00:14:22 --> 00:14:24

you know, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says,

00:14:29 --> 00:14:30

We're supposed to be the witnesses.

00:14:32 --> 00:14:34

We resign that to them. I said, No.

00:14:34 --> 00:14:35

You be the witnesses.

00:14:36 --> 00:14:37

You be the super powers. You be the

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

leaders. You be the the ones that

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

that establish

00:14:41 --> 00:14:44

standards for justice, for what is just, what

00:14:44 --> 00:14:44

is fair.

00:14:45 --> 00:14:47

You you be the leaders of equality

00:14:49 --> 00:14:51

and social justice. We will just sit here

00:14:51 --> 00:14:54

and we will try to follow your example

00:14:54 --> 00:14:55

in whatever you do. And whatever you tell

00:14:55 --> 00:14:57

us is appropriate, we will follow. Whatever you

00:14:57 --> 00:14:58

tell us is

00:14:59 --> 00:15:01

correct, we will we will, you know, assume

00:15:01 --> 00:15:02

and and we will

00:15:03 --> 00:15:04

commit to. As a matter of fact, some

00:15:04 --> 00:15:06

of us may take even pride in being

00:15:06 --> 00:15:07

so committed

00:15:08 --> 00:15:09

to the standards

00:15:10 --> 00:15:13

set by people who do not have

00:15:14 --> 00:15:16

the guidance of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. We're

00:15:16 --> 00:15:17

so committed, we're civilized,

00:15:18 --> 00:15:19

we're like you.

00:15:20 --> 00:15:21

We adhere to

00:15:22 --> 00:15:22

your standards,

00:15:23 --> 00:15:24

to your definition

00:15:26 --> 00:15:26

of justice

00:15:27 --> 00:15:28

and fairness

00:15:29 --> 00:15:30

and equality.

00:15:31 --> 00:15:32

It's a problem and the world is suffering.

00:15:35 --> 00:15:37

That is part and parcel of the mission

00:15:37 --> 00:15:39

of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. And

00:15:39 --> 00:15:41

it's the responsibility of his Ummah.

00:15:43 --> 00:15:45

Not only to set the standards, but to

00:15:45 --> 00:15:47

call people to these standards

00:15:48 --> 00:15:50

and to enforce these standards.

00:15:52 --> 00:15:54

But no, we don't want to.

00:15:54 --> 00:15:57

And then when we suffer from the absence

00:15:57 --> 00:15:57

of

00:15:58 --> 00:15:59

of of of this,

00:16:00 --> 00:16:01

we complain.

00:16:05 --> 00:16:07

And before I go to the 4th point,

00:16:07 --> 00:16:09

Ajamal, my dear brothers and sisters,

00:16:10 --> 00:16:11

these three things

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

were well understood

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

to be part of the mission

00:16:18 --> 00:16:20

of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam's community

00:16:20 --> 00:16:21

and ummah.

00:16:22 --> 00:16:24

And they were so understood

00:16:24 --> 00:16:26

and so committed to

00:16:26 --> 00:16:29

and known even to the youngest member

00:16:30 --> 00:16:32

of the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam's community.

00:16:34 --> 00:16:35

Someone saw that when they were

00:16:36 --> 00:16:37

when they found themselves

00:16:38 --> 00:16:41

speaking on behalf of Muslim or on behalf

00:16:41 --> 00:16:43

of the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam,

00:16:44 --> 00:16:47

they were able to easily articulate that beautifully

00:16:47 --> 00:16:48

and powerfully.

00:16:49 --> 00:16:51

And we find that in the statement of

00:16:51 --> 00:16:52

Rabbi ibn Aymr.

00:16:52 --> 00:16:54

I think I remember not too long ago,

00:16:54 --> 00:16:55

maybe I think it was 2 years ago

00:16:55 --> 00:16:56

during COVID,

00:16:56 --> 00:16:57

Jehanu was

00:16:58 --> 00:16:59

was was sharing it.

00:17:00 --> 00:17:02

Rabbi ibn 'Amr was a teenager. A lot

00:17:02 --> 00:17:04

of people think that he wasn't a commander.

00:17:04 --> 00:17:05

He was not high level

00:17:07 --> 00:17:09

politician or ex He was a young man.

00:17:09 --> 00:17:10

He was a teenager.

00:17:11 --> 00:17:13

And when the Persian leader asked him, what

00:17:13 --> 00:17:16

brings you out? This teenager was able to

00:17:16 --> 00:17:16

beautifully,

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

precisely and and

00:17:20 --> 00:17:22

and and and In a very concise statement,

00:17:22 --> 00:17:24

he was able to articulate it. Nakhnuqawm.

00:17:25 --> 00:17:27

We are our people. Ifta'ath and Allah. Allah

00:17:27 --> 00:17:29

subhanahu wa ta'ala summoned us.

00:17:30 --> 00:17:31

This is a calling

00:17:33 --> 00:17:35

through his prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:17:40 --> 00:17:42

To to pull humanity, to show humanity,

00:17:43 --> 00:17:46

give them access to worshiping Allah alone.

00:17:47 --> 00:17:49

And instead of worshiping fellow human beings,

00:17:50 --> 00:17:53

instead of being exploited and taken advantage of

00:17:53 --> 00:17:54

and being

00:17:56 --> 00:18:00

really oppressed by other by fellow human beings.

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

And worship Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. That's freedom.

00:18:03 --> 00:18:05

If they choose to worship, obviously you cannot

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

impose that.

00:18:06 --> 00:18:08

We're giving them access to it.

00:18:12 --> 00:18:15

And from the injustices and from the oppression

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

of other ways of life to the justice

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

of Islam.

00:18:24 --> 00:18:25

And from the

00:18:26 --> 00:18:29

restrictions and the narrowness and and the exhaust

00:18:29 --> 00:18:31

the the the the the the the,

00:18:32 --> 00:18:33

the miserable.

00:18:35 --> 00:18:37

For those who really understand its nature,

00:18:38 --> 00:18:40

duniya is not there to give you itself.

00:18:41 --> 00:18:41

Duniya

00:18:42 --> 00:18:44

is there to enslave you and

00:18:46 --> 00:18:46

at the end,

00:18:48 --> 00:18:49

get rid of you.

00:18:51 --> 00:18:52

That's duniya.

00:18:55 --> 00:18:57

So they said, we're here to teach people

00:18:57 --> 00:18:59

some there's something more, vast,

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

greater,

00:19:01 --> 00:19:01

bigger.

00:19:01 --> 00:19:04

Something that if you were to master, you

00:19:04 --> 00:19:06

will be able to conquer dunya. You will

00:19:06 --> 00:19:08

be able to enjoy dunya. It will take

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

your

00:19:09 --> 00:19:11

life to the to to a different level.

00:19:14 --> 00:19:15

We didn't reveal the Quran to you to

00:19:15 --> 00:19:18

suffer or to be miserable. No. We'll teach

00:19:18 --> 00:19:20

you true happiness. So we're here to teach

00:19:20 --> 00:19:22

people the the the

00:19:23 --> 00:19:26

where where happiness lies, where success is, and

00:19:26 --> 00:19:29

how to achieve it. So the pursuit of

00:19:29 --> 00:19:33

happiness, we're here to ensure that. Teach people

00:19:33 --> 00:19:36

true happiness. This is what Rabbi ibn Amr

00:19:36 --> 00:19:38

stated, pretty much. Just, you know, this is

00:19:38 --> 00:19:39

my understanding of how

00:19:41 --> 00:19:44

So he knew that. And that's our mission.

00:19:44 --> 00:19:45

That's what we're here for.

00:19:45 --> 00:19:47

Number 4, my dear brothers and sisters.

00:19:48 --> 00:19:50

The prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam came and

00:19:50 --> 00:19:52

he introduced a system of morality

00:19:53 --> 00:19:55

and spiritual purity unlike anything.

00:19:56 --> 00:19:58

Something that is balanced, something that has divine

00:19:58 --> 00:19:59

origin,

00:19:59 --> 00:20:02

something that is very pragmatic and practical,

00:20:02 --> 00:20:04

something that is

00:20:05 --> 00:20:06

that is realistic,

00:20:08 --> 00:20:10

something that has that that is rewarding.

00:20:12 --> 00:20:14

And if you take some of these elements

00:20:14 --> 00:20:16

out of any moral system,

00:20:17 --> 00:20:18

it will not make sense.

00:20:19 --> 00:20:21

So the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:20:21 --> 00:20:23

brought this very comprehensive

00:20:24 --> 00:20:27

moral system and he introduced it to people.

00:20:27 --> 00:20:29

Something that pertains to both.

00:20:29 --> 00:20:31

The means and the goals, the ends. The

00:20:31 --> 00:20:34

ends have to be moral and have have

00:20:34 --> 00:20:36

to be ethical, so do the

00:20:37 --> 00:20:37

means.

00:20:38 --> 00:20:41

And and he, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, taught

00:20:41 --> 00:20:43

his companions and those who will come after

00:20:43 --> 00:20:45

them, to hold themselves to the highest standards.

00:20:46 --> 00:20:48

To the highest ethical and moral standards.

00:20:49 --> 00:20:51

Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:20:51 --> 00:20:53

So we have to be the manifestation of

00:20:53 --> 00:20:55

that. We morality and akhla. We have to

00:20:55 --> 00:20:57

be teaching people that

00:20:59 --> 00:21:00

we cannot be in violation

00:21:01 --> 00:21:02

of our own

00:21:03 --> 00:21:04

code of conduct.

00:21:05 --> 00:21:06

Otherwise, we're going to

00:21:08 --> 00:21:10

push people away from Allah and from his

00:21:10 --> 00:21:12

messenger sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.

00:21:13 --> 00:21:15

He he sallallahu alaihi wa sallam had the

00:21:15 --> 00:21:17

best of character, the best of akhlaq.

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

And he taught the sahabah that.

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

So he took care of element I mean

00:21:23 --> 00:21:25

no one by the way in the world

00:21:25 --> 00:21:27

was able to And read the great, you

00:21:27 --> 00:21:30

know, autobiography of Malcolm X. And you're going

00:21:30 --> 00:21:32

to see that section where he talks about

00:21:32 --> 00:21:32

this.

00:21:32 --> 00:21:34

The most one of the most attractive

00:21:35 --> 00:21:36

and most compelling

00:21:37 --> 00:21:38

arguments

00:21:39 --> 00:21:40

that someone can present

00:21:41 --> 00:21:42

to non Muslims

00:21:43 --> 00:21:46

is the moral code. But if Muslims themselves

00:21:46 --> 00:21:48

are not abiding by it, if they're not

00:21:48 --> 00:21:49

following it,

00:21:49 --> 00:21:51

if we do not represent the akhlaq of

00:21:51 --> 00:21:54

Muhammad salallahu alaihi wa sallam, where are people

00:21:54 --> 00:21:55

going to find it?

00:21:56 --> 00:21:58

Time and again we hear people saying things

00:21:58 --> 00:21:59

like, oh, alhamdulillah,

00:21:59 --> 00:22:00

I'm glad

00:22:00 --> 00:22:03

converts. I'm glad I knew Islam before I

00:22:03 --> 00:22:05

got to know Muslims, modern day Muslims.

00:22:05 --> 00:22:07

And we laugh about it and some Allah

00:22:07 --> 00:22:08

is sad, it's heartbreaking.

00:22:10 --> 00:22:13

That somehow we cannot change something that can

00:22:13 --> 00:22:14

be changed. We cannot

00:22:15 --> 00:22:17

enhance something that can be enhanced. We cannot

00:22:17 --> 00:22:20

transform something because we don't want to.

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

We rather hold on to our

00:22:22 --> 00:22:25

traditions, and our cultures, and our, you know,

00:22:25 --> 00:22:27

person This is who I am, accept me

00:22:27 --> 00:22:28

for who I am. What kind of nonsense

00:22:28 --> 00:22:31

is that? Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says,

00:22:33 --> 00:22:35

Successful is a person who actually

00:22:36 --> 00:22:36

changes

00:22:39 --> 00:22:42

himself, become becomes a better version of himself,

00:22:42 --> 00:22:44

challenges himself and say, listen. Yeah, I don't

00:22:44 --> 00:22:47

have My culture, in my upbringing, maybe even

00:22:47 --> 00:22:49

in my personality I have these weaknesses.

00:22:49 --> 00:22:51

I need to learn this and I need

00:22:51 --> 00:22:52

to learn that because this is the character

00:22:52 --> 00:22:54

of Muhammad salallahu alaihi. This is what the

00:22:54 --> 00:22:56

prophet is teaching us.

00:22:56 --> 00:22:58

When the prophet shalallahu alayhi wa sallam addressed

00:22:58 --> 00:23:01

some of these issues with his companions, they

00:23:01 --> 00:23:02

didn't The munafiqeen

00:23:02 --> 00:23:05

didn't obviously accept and they challenged. But the

00:23:05 --> 00:23:07

the sincere sahabah, radiwaranahu alayhi wa sallam, they

00:23:07 --> 00:23:10

said, teach us messenger of Allah. Teach us

00:23:10 --> 00:23:10

akhlaq

00:23:11 --> 00:23:12

and manners.

00:23:13 --> 00:23:15

He taught them how to eat. He taught

00:23:15 --> 00:23:16

them how to clean themselves,

00:23:17 --> 00:23:18

salallahu alaihi wa sallam. And they were fine

00:23:18 --> 00:23:20

with it. They were humble enough. They were

00:23:20 --> 00:23:24

committed enough. They were courageous enough, radhiallahu anhu,

00:23:24 --> 00:23:25

to chain themselves.

00:23:26 --> 00:23:28

They didn't shy away. When the prophet shalallahu

00:23:28 --> 00:23:29

alaihi wa sallam taught Umar he didn't say,

00:23:29 --> 00:23:31

what do you mean that I have to

00:23:31 --> 00:23:33

treat women this way and that way? Yes.

00:23:34 --> 00:23:36

He said, kunna lanaooodunisa

00:23:36 --> 00:23:37

a'ashayyan.

00:23:53 --> 00:23:54

And then we started questioning

00:23:55 --> 00:23:56

the way we used to treat them.

00:23:57 --> 00:24:00

That was a huge massive cultural change.

00:24:01 --> 00:24:03

And they had to do it. Why? Because

00:24:03 --> 00:24:04

it came from Allah and his messenger, and

00:24:04 --> 00:24:07

the prophet himself was a manifestation of that.

00:24:07 --> 00:24:08

He led by example.

00:24:09 --> 00:24:11

His 9 wives, not a single one of

00:24:11 --> 00:24:13

them. Not in a single one of his

00:24:13 --> 00:24:14

9 wives. Different age groups.

00:24:17 --> 00:24:19

Not not a single one of them when

00:24:19 --> 00:24:21

Allah gave them the option to leave him

00:24:21 --> 00:24:22

and have

00:24:22 --> 00:24:25

unlimited access to resources and wealth. Not a

00:24:25 --> 00:24:27

single one of them

00:24:27 --> 00:24:30

thought about it or considered it. Afika Akhtariya

00:24:30 --> 00:24:33

Rasulullah. The youngest Aisha. The prophet shalallahu alaihi

00:24:33 --> 00:24:35

wa sallam told her, Aisha, Allah told me,

00:24:35 --> 00:24:37

he instructed me to give you the option

00:24:37 --> 00:24:39

to leave this marriage. Get out of this

00:24:39 --> 00:24:41

marriage. If you're in it against your will,

00:24:42 --> 00:24:44

if you feel oppressed, if you feel If

00:24:44 --> 00:24:46

you want more wealth And they were promised

00:24:46 --> 00:24:48

unlimited amount of wealth.

00:24:49 --> 00:24:49

Fataalayin,

00:24:50 --> 00:24:50

umatirakunna

00:24:51 --> 00:24:51

ofsarakunna

00:24:52 --> 00:24:52

sarahanjamina.

00:24:53 --> 00:24:55

And not only that, they knew that if

00:24:55 --> 00:24:57

the prophet was to release them, men would

00:24:57 --> 00:25:00

line up at their doors. Because who doesn't

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

want to

00:25:02 --> 00:25:05

As disgusting as as as it sounds.

00:25:05 --> 00:25:07

They will have better opportunities,

00:25:08 --> 00:25:09

but not a single one of them. Why?

00:25:09 --> 00:25:10

Because of the way

00:25:11 --> 00:25:13

he, salallahu alaihi wa sallam, treated them.

00:25:14 --> 00:25:15

Because the prophet was

00:25:16 --> 00:25:18

the best model

00:25:18 --> 00:25:21

for masculinity, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. Afheekaakhtariya

00:25:21 --> 00:25:24

rasoolallahu. Go consult your parents. How could I,

00:25:24 --> 00:25:25

a messenger of Allah?

00:25:28 --> 00:25:30

He salallahu alaihi wa sallam was a great

00:25:30 --> 00:25:32

example, so the sahaba followed that example. And

00:25:32 --> 00:25:33

they had to adjust and they had to

00:25:33 --> 00:25:34

change.

00:25:35 --> 00:25:38

Same thing with with every single moral

00:25:38 --> 00:25:38

issue

00:25:39 --> 00:25:41

that the prophet salallahu alaihi wa sallam addressed.

00:25:41 --> 00:25:43

Many of which by the way were addressed

00:25:43 --> 00:25:45

in the very early stages.

00:25:46 --> 00:25:47

The prophet salallahu alaihi wa sallam was very

00:25:47 --> 00:25:49

clear when it comes to theology, when it

00:25:49 --> 00:25:52

comes to creed, tawhid, it's very clear. You

00:25:52 --> 00:25:54

you had to know what you're signing up

00:25:54 --> 00:25:56

for when you accepted Islam.

00:25:57 --> 00:25:59

In the early days of Makkah, same thing

00:25:59 --> 00:25:59

with

00:25:59 --> 00:26:00

morality

00:26:01 --> 00:26:04

and ethics. These are our ethics. These are

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

our moral

00:26:04 --> 00:26:05

standards.

00:26:06 --> 00:26:07

Are you ready to commit to this?

00:26:08 --> 00:26:09

And when the prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:26:09 --> 00:26:12

found people, some people needed some time to

00:26:12 --> 00:26:13

change and transform.

00:26:14 --> 00:26:16

The prophet shalallahu alaihi wa sallam worked on

00:26:16 --> 00:26:16

them.

00:26:17 --> 00:26:19

And when he told And I'll conclude with

00:26:19 --> 00:26:21

this example because we're running out of time.

00:26:21 --> 00:26:23

When he told one of his sahabah,

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

you still have remnants

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

of ignorance, of jahiliyah left in you. You

00:26:29 --> 00:26:31

need to get rid of that prejudice that

00:26:31 --> 00:26:33

you have, and that racism that you have,

00:26:33 --> 00:26:35

and that culturalism that you have, and that

00:26:35 --> 00:26:37

tribalism that you have.

00:26:38 --> 00:26:39

What's wrong with you? How could you look

00:26:39 --> 00:26:40

at someone?

00:26:41 --> 00:26:43

How could you look at someone?

00:26:44 --> 00:26:47

And then and then and then shame him

00:26:50 --> 00:26:51

for his mother's

00:26:52 --> 00:26:54

skin color. How could he do that?

00:26:56 --> 00:26:57

That's Jahiliya.

00:27:00 --> 00:27:02

And that was enough for Abu Dhar to

00:27:02 --> 00:27:03

consider

00:27:04 --> 00:27:05

to change himself.

00:27:07 --> 00:27:08

I say this and I ask Allah, azza

00:27:08 --> 00:27:09

wa jal, to make you and I, of

00:27:09 --> 00:27:11

those who listen and follow the best of

00:27:11 --> 00:27:12

where they listen to me, Allah, azza wa

00:27:12 --> 00:27:13

jal, forgive us our sins.

00:27:34 --> 00:27:36

The prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam,

00:27:37 --> 00:27:39

he brought this beautiful religion, this amazing

00:27:40 --> 00:27:41

system

00:27:41 --> 00:27:42

that came for

00:27:43 --> 00:27:44

to ensure social welfare

00:27:47 --> 00:27:50

and advocated, sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, for the

00:27:50 --> 00:27:51

support of those who are in need.

00:27:53 --> 00:27:55

Such the you know, such as through the

00:27:55 --> 00:27:57

zakah system or the sadaqah system and even

00:27:57 --> 00:27:58

to go beyond that.

00:27:59 --> 00:28:01

Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. And again, he himself,

00:28:01 --> 00:28:02

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,

00:28:03 --> 00:28:04

was a role model when it comes to

00:28:04 --> 00:28:05

generosity of

00:28:07 --> 00:28:09

amongst the the the the his the first

00:28:09 --> 00:28:11

words that came out of his mouth, sallallahu

00:28:11 --> 00:28:12

alaihi wa sallam.

00:28:13 --> 00:28:16

Upon establishing that first community in Madinah, ayuha

00:28:16 --> 00:28:16

nas

00:28:17 --> 00:28:19

afshu salam, oh people spread peace.

00:28:21 --> 00:28:23

Waata imuttaam, and feet.

00:28:24 --> 00:28:26

Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. That was his mission.

00:28:30 --> 00:28:34

The prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam told his

00:28:34 --> 00:28:35

community members,

00:28:36 --> 00:28:37

none of you is a true believer if

00:28:37 --> 00:28:40

he goes to sleep with a full belly

00:28:40 --> 00:28:40

while

00:28:41 --> 00:28:43

when he or she, they know that their

00:28:43 --> 00:28:44

neighbor is starving.

00:28:45 --> 00:28:46

You can't do that.

00:28:48 --> 00:28:50

The prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam came with

00:28:50 --> 00:28:51

a mission

00:28:52 --> 00:28:53

to ensure liberation

00:28:53 --> 00:28:54

from oppression.

00:28:55 --> 00:28:56

Stand up for justice.

00:28:58 --> 00:29:00

The prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam came

00:29:01 --> 00:29:03

with a message of universal

00:29:03 --> 00:29:05

brotherhood and unity.

00:29:10 --> 00:29:13

Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. He taught them how

00:29:13 --> 00:29:15

to empathize and how to sympathize and how

00:29:15 --> 00:29:17

to care for each other. Sallallahu alaihi wa

00:29:17 --> 00:29:17

sallam.

00:29:18 --> 00:29:21

If you find yourself lacking in this department,

00:29:21 --> 00:29:22

you're not a true representation

00:29:22 --> 00:29:25

of the prophetic legacy. You're not someone who

00:29:25 --> 00:29:27

is bearing the liwa, the the the banner

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

of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. And

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

you need to work on yourself. You need

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

to start caring

00:29:32 --> 00:29:35

for Muslims locally and abroad everywhere.

00:29:37 --> 00:29:39

Knowledge. We are ummah of knowledge

00:29:40 --> 00:29:43

and seeking knowledge and education.

00:29:45 --> 00:29:46

We are an ummah

00:29:47 --> 00:29:47

of

00:29:49 --> 00:29:49

peace.

00:29:52 --> 00:29:55

We're here to spread peace, to teach people

00:29:55 --> 00:29:57

how to live in peace with themselves,

00:29:58 --> 00:29:59

with those around them.

00:30:00 --> 00:30:03

We are an ummah that came to establish

00:30:03 --> 00:30:05

just leadership and governance.

00:30:06 --> 00:30:07

And we'll talk about that insha'allahahu

00:30:07 --> 00:30:10

ta'ala next time, bi'ilillahi ta'ala, we ask Allah

00:30:10 --> 00:30:12

azza wa jal to bless the ummah of

00:30:12 --> 00:30:14

prophet Muhammad salallahu alayhi wa sallam. And we

00:30:14 --> 00:30:17

send his salutations and his peace and blessings

00:30:17 --> 00:30:20

upon our prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam. May

00:30:20 --> 00:30:22

Allah, azza wa jal, reunite us with him.

00:30:22 --> 00:30:23

My dear brothers and sisters,

00:30:24 --> 00:30:26

today is is we have an opportunity, not

00:30:26 --> 00:30:28

an opportunity, but actually an obligation to stand

00:30:29 --> 00:30:31

with our brothers and sisters

00:30:31 --> 00:30:32

who suffered,

00:30:33 --> 00:30:36

from the flooding in Bangladesh, insha'allahu hu ta'ala.

00:30:36 --> 00:30:39

So there is emergency flood relief in Bangladesh,

00:30:40 --> 00:30:41

and we will insha'allah

00:30:41 --> 00:30:43

talk to them to talk to you about

00:30:43 --> 00:30:43

that, insha'allah,

00:30:44 --> 00:30:47

The goal here is to get as many

00:30:47 --> 00:30:49

people as possible to get them shelters.

00:30:50 --> 00:30:53

To get them shelter because many people lost

00:30:53 --> 00:30:53

their shelter.

00:30:54 --> 00:30:56

And inshaAllah ta'ala, we count

00:30:57 --> 00:30:59

on Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala's blessings

00:30:59 --> 00:31:02

and then on your generosity and your

00:32:01 --> 00:32:01

So.

00:37:14 --> 00:37:15

Dear brothers and sisters,

00:37:16 --> 00:37:18

We have with us, Nabiq here,

00:37:20 --> 00:37:20

to help

00:37:21 --> 00:37:22

us raise funds. Brother

00:37:23 --> 00:37:23

okay.

00:37:24 --> 00:37:26

Go ahead. InshaAllah, we'll give you some just

00:37:26 --> 00:37:28

some updated information as to what it is

00:37:28 --> 00:37:30

that we're trying to raise funds for, and

00:37:30 --> 00:37:32

inshaAllah, we want everyone's participation.

00:37:33 --> 00:37:35

When you provide a shelter, you're talking about

00:37:35 --> 00:37:38

not just, husband, wife, and children. You're talking

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

about

00:37:39 --> 00:37:41

husband, wife, children, grandchildren, grand

00:37:42 --> 00:37:42

parents,

00:37:44 --> 00:37:44

cousins.

00:37:45 --> 00:37:47

So just keep that in mind, inshallah. Assalamu

00:37:47 --> 00:37:48

alaikum, brother.

00:37:49 --> 00:37:51

Standing here on on behalf of Nabik, it's

00:37:51 --> 00:37:53

a familiar name in this community.

00:37:53 --> 00:37:54

And you all are familiar.

00:37:55 --> 00:37:58

Recently, Bangladesh become, like, a headline for many

00:37:58 --> 00:38:00

reasons. And one of the hard reason is

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

the flood.

00:38:01 --> 00:38:02

We

00:38:03 --> 00:38:05

it's a different mic.

00:38:11 --> 00:38:12

It's working now. Right? Yeah. Yeah.

00:38:18 --> 00:38:21

Okay. I'll I'll I'll speak slowly. Maybe it'll

00:38:21 --> 00:38:22

be easier.

00:38:23 --> 00:38:23

So we

00:38:25 --> 00:38:29

are so, actually, we responded quickly to help

00:38:29 --> 00:38:30

the people. Over

00:38:30 --> 00:38:32

5,000,000 people are underwater.

00:38:32 --> 00:38:34

Like, they have need to take shelter. We

00:38:34 --> 00:38:37

are providing that cooked food. We're providing the

00:38:37 --> 00:38:39

dry food, but their main reality is

00:38:40 --> 00:38:43

after standing for a week's underwater, the houses

00:38:43 --> 00:38:44

need to be destored.

00:38:44 --> 00:38:46

We have to crosstalk

00:38:46 --> 00:38:49

over 100 and thousands of houses. So I'm

00:38:49 --> 00:38:52

here to ask your help, to ask support

00:38:52 --> 00:38:52

us

00:38:53 --> 00:38:54

building those houses.

00:38:54 --> 00:38:56

One house will cost us $2,000.

00:38:57 --> 00:38:59

And today, I'm asking you all, at least

00:38:59 --> 00:39:02

for this community who has been serving, who

00:39:02 --> 00:39:03

has been helping us for a long time

00:39:04 --> 00:39:06

in different cause, at least stand up and

00:39:06 --> 00:39:08

please help us, these poor people, these generous

00:39:08 --> 00:39:10

people who can at least go back to

00:39:10 --> 00:39:13

their houses. So today, I would ask Sheikh

00:39:13 --> 00:39:14

to raise some fund for the

00:39:15 --> 00:39:17

building new houses for these poor people. How

00:39:17 --> 00:39:19

much per? 2,000 per 2,000 per share per

00:39:19 --> 00:39:19

share per share per share per share per

00:39:19 --> 00:39:20

share per share per share per share

00:39:20 --> 00:39:21

per share.

00:39:22 --> 00:39:23

So we need about 20 per share.

00:39:25 --> 00:39:26

So you heard the figures.

00:39:27 --> 00:39:29

It's gonna cost about 2,000

00:39:29 --> 00:39:30

per shelter.

00:39:30 --> 00:39:32

And again think of it as not only

00:39:32 --> 00:39:34

providing a shelter for 1 person,

00:39:35 --> 00:39:37

and not just 1 small family, you're talking

00:39:37 --> 00:39:38

about

00:39:38 --> 00:39:40

so many people. Only Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:39:40 --> 00:39:41

knows 15, 20 people Insha'Allah.

00:39:42 --> 00:39:43

So what we want Insha'Allah,

00:39:43 --> 00:39:45

I want at least

00:39:45 --> 00:39:48

for us to provide InshaAllah, shelter for about

00:39:49 --> 00:39:52

20 families InshaAllah Ta'ala. That's 20 shelters 20

00:39:52 --> 00:39:55

times 2, that's 40,000, that's doable InshaAllah, Azza

00:39:55 --> 00:39:55

wa Jal.

00:39:56 --> 00:39:58

So who would like to InshaAllah Ta'ala be

00:39:58 --> 00:39:59

the first one

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

to cover the cost of how many?

00:40:03 --> 00:40:04

1. Takbir.

00:40:05 --> 00:40:07

So I'm down to 19. I need 19

00:40:07 --> 00:40:09

more InshaAllah Ta'ala hands,

00:40:09 --> 00:40:11

Beidlillahi Ta'ala. Again if you can do half,

00:40:12 --> 00:40:13

if you can do a 1,000, if you

00:40:13 --> 00:40:16

can do 500, that's fine. InshaAllah Ta'ala. But

00:40:16 --> 00:40:18

right now I'm looking for individuals that can

00:40:18 --> 00:40:19

InshaAllah,

00:40:20 --> 00:40:21

sponsor

00:40:21 --> 00:40:24

the building or the providing 1

00:40:24 --> 00:40:26

shelter, InshaAllah Ta'ala, or 2 or more.

00:40:27 --> 00:40:28

Anyone else, InshaAllah?

00:40:29 --> 00:40:30

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala taqbir.

00:40:31 --> 00:40:32

I'm down to 18.

00:40:33 --> 00:40:34

Anyone else?

00:40:34 --> 00:40:35

Anyone else?

00:40:36 --> 00:40:38

May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala provide you with

00:40:38 --> 00:40:39

a shelter in this life and in the

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

hereafter. Say, Ameen.

00:40:41 --> 00:40:43

Taqbi, may Allah accept your deeds and forgive

00:40:43 --> 00:40:45

your sins. I need 17 more, Insha'Allah.

00:40:45 --> 00:40:47

So far we have 3.

00:40:47 --> 00:40:49

3, Insha'Allah ta'ala.

00:40:50 --> 00:40:52

Can can I need 2, at least 2

00:40:53 --> 00:40:53

Who?

00:40:54 --> 00:40:56

Alright. 2 more, inshallah. The last 2. 2

00:40:56 --> 00:40:57

more, full.

00:40:58 --> 00:40:58

Who

00:40:59 --> 00:41:01

Takbir. 1 more. 1 more.

00:41:03 --> 00:41:03

1 more.

00:41:04 --> 00:41:05

Remember,

00:41:05 --> 00:41:07

there isn't I need a a a sadaqah.

00:41:08 --> 00:41:10

You know sometimes people have to to

00:41:11 --> 00:41:12

know where it's going.

00:41:13 --> 00:41:15

No. Don't even worry about where it's going.

00:41:15 --> 00:41:16

InshaAllah ta'ala, you will find it on the

00:41:16 --> 00:41:18

day of judgement. You'll know exactly who it

00:41:18 --> 00:41:20

went to, who benefited from it.

00:41:21 --> 00:41:23

And this is you can think of it

00:41:23 --> 00:41:25

as Sadaqa Jariyah because it's there to stay.

00:41:26 --> 00:41:27

This is not something that someone is going

00:41:27 --> 00:41:30

to consume and get it over and done

00:41:30 --> 00:41:32

with. This is Sadaqa Jariyah for as long

00:41:32 --> 00:41:34

as that shelter is providing

00:41:36 --> 00:41:38

for for as long as that shelter stands

00:41:38 --> 00:41:40

and someone is benefiting from it, you're getting

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

the reward.

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

So one more, InshaAllah Ta'ala, one more person,

00:41:45 --> 00:41:48

at least one more. Okay. Can we get

00:41:48 --> 00:41:51

10 people, InshaAllah, to do half? Meaning 1,000.

00:41:52 --> 00:41:52

1,000.

00:41:53 --> 00:41:55

1, takbir, may Allah accept from you. I

00:41:55 --> 00:41:58

need 9 more. 2, takbir, may Allah bless

00:41:58 --> 00:42:01

you. 3, I need 7 more. 7. 1,000.

00:42:02 --> 00:42:05

So you and someone else will partner inshaAllah

00:42:05 --> 00:42:06

in providing one full shelter for a family.

00:42:06 --> 00:42:09

That's 4. May Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless

00:42:09 --> 00:42:12

you. That's 5. I need 5 more. Now

00:42:12 --> 00:42:14

we have 2 and a half shelters basically.

00:42:14 --> 00:42:16

So we we can't do that, we can't

00:42:16 --> 00:42:17

do halfs.

00:42:17 --> 00:42:18

Anyone else?

00:42:19 --> 00:42:20

May Allah bless you and accept from you.

00:42:20 --> 00:42:21

Takbeer.

00:42:21 --> 00:42:22

I need, inshaaAllah,

00:42:22 --> 00:42:25

4 more. Meaning 2 more shelters

00:42:26 --> 00:42:28

sponsored by 4 members, InshaAllah of our blessed

00:42:28 --> 00:42:29

community.

00:42:30 --> 00:42:32

1,000 each. Can I have

00:42:32 --> 00:42:34

can I have one can I have at

00:42:34 --> 00:42:35

least 2 more?

00:42:35 --> 00:42:38

2 individuals, a 1,000 each, InshaAllah?

00:42:39 --> 00:42:40

2, a 1000 each? No?

00:42:41 --> 00:42:44

Tayeb. Can I get at least those 2

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

housings

00:42:45 --> 00:42:47

to be provided by 4 people?

00:42:52 --> 00:42:54

4 each. That's 8. I need 8 people

00:42:54 --> 00:42:56

with 500 each.

00:42:56 --> 00:42:57

8.

00:42:57 --> 00:42:58

500 each.

00:43:03 --> 00:43:04

Okay. 1

00:43:04 --> 00:43:06

I need 3 more. We have a quarter

00:43:06 --> 00:43:07

of a shelter.

00:43:07 --> 00:43:09

Now we have half a shelter.

00:43:09 --> 00:43:11

We can't do that. So I need 2

00:43:11 --> 00:43:14

more people, 500 each. You give 500,

00:43:14 --> 00:43:16

someone else gives 500 insha'Allah ta'ala, you'll get

00:43:16 --> 00:43:18

the reward of that. I need one more

00:43:18 --> 00:43:21

person insha'Allah with 500, one last. May Allah

00:43:21 --> 00:43:23

subhanahu wa ta'ala accept from you. Now whatever

00:43:23 --> 00:43:25

you can provide, whether you can do a

00:43:25 --> 00:43:27

100, 200, 300, it will all add up

00:43:27 --> 00:43:29

Insha'Allah Hu Ta'ala.

00:43:29 --> 00:43:32

Every 2 1,000 Insha'Allah will ensure

00:43:32 --> 00:43:34

that we provide a shelter for a family,

00:43:34 --> 00:43:36

bi ilaha illaha illa. May Allah accept from

00:43:36 --> 00:43:38

you. May

00:43:38 --> 00:43:41

Allah forgive our sins. May Allah subhanahu wa

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

ta'ala ease all of our struggles and hardships.

00:43:44 --> 00:43:47

And if you again, you know someone that

00:43:47 --> 00:43:49

can take advantage of this, please do not

00:43:49 --> 00:43:50

hesitate

00:43:50 --> 00:43:52

to actually introduce them to this.

00:43:53 --> 00:43:55

Okay. And there are tables on both sides

00:43:55 --> 00:43:58

that can provide any extra like any information

00:43:58 --> 00:44:01

that you need, biyidhulillahi ta'ala, regarding this effort.

00:44:01 --> 00:44:03

May Allah accept from our brothers and sisters,

00:44:04 --> 00:44:06

at Nabok, their effort. May Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:44:06 --> 00:44:08

Ta'ala reward you for it, Insha'AllahHu Wa Ta'ala.

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

Again,

00:44:09 --> 00:44:11

it's great to have someone that will do

00:44:11 --> 00:44:13

something on your behalf and all you have

00:44:13 --> 00:44:16

to do is conveniently just hand them the

00:44:16 --> 00:44:18

funds, you'll get the reward for it regardless.

00:44:18 --> 00:44:19

And then the responsibility

00:44:20 --> 00:44:22

is on them inshaAllahahu ta'ala. And they have

00:44:22 --> 00:44:25

an amazing record when it comes to doing

00:44:25 --> 00:44:26

these kind of works. May Allah subhanahu wa

00:44:26 --> 00:44:28

ta'ala accept from them. Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah.
