Hello,
my dear brothers and sisters,
parents, I told you last week
to talk about
our children, the challenges that they face faces or they deal with
their rights
because of what I had to encounter
in the past few weeks, and in the past few months, in the past few years, since I came here to America, since I've been working with the
same story, same tragedies repeat themselves over and over again. And it is essential people are not getting the point.
So this morning,
I heard an amazing story.
I'll tell you a modified version of it.
There was a funny morning that was issued.
This brother told me one time
threatening many towns,
three towns prepared themselves in three different
ways. One town did not believe in the forecast. And they said forget about it, what is it? What's going to happen? Nothing. So they did not do anything.
And some of them I say how many say that they prepare themselves when you do not prepare yourself and and when you do not plan?
You're actually planning as they say, right?
When you fail to plan, you're actually
planning for failure.
So they did not their plan was a very passive one. Do nothing, everything will be fine, will be okay will survive and survive the ones before so they didn't do anything.
The other town
did not have a lot of time. So they went to they hire some people. They said you know what? They didn't put a lot of planning a lot of thinking.
So they said the easiest thing is to build
something very solid, huge, a big one one shot, just something something strong.
Very rarely. So just put it there, it will block it in
the third town,
thought differently.
They came collectively. We put our heads together. And they put their heads together and they came up with some flat the results.
The first half was totally destroyed, fully submerged underwater. Nobody survived.
The second town
the pressure of the water was so immense that it destroyed me down.
But as I saw the cracks
many people were able to skate with their lives.
But others were not able to.
Their town was destroyed as well.
And then I wanted to the other time, the third time to find that talent intact. Fine.
What was the plan the people
That time they came together. And they figured
that this is something that they all have to face, they all have to sacrifice a little bit. So they decided to put their efforts and channel the water
throughout the city and around it.
And when the water came,
it went through and finally receded. And they were able to survive
the pressure that our children, brothers and sisters, and I suggest, if you're a parent, and even if you're not a parent, and you will find a case, I suggest that you go and explore, and you go and see what they have to go through. I suggest that you go to their high schools, or public schools,
I suggest that you go to their,
to those websites
that they always chat.
I suggest that you do that. I suggest that you sit and watch some of the
shows that they see.
What puzzles mean sometimes, is that some of us are oblivious,
of the amount of pressure and temptation that our kids go through.
Put yourself in their shoes.
How are they supposed to survive
these
temptations? How are they supposed to keep their Islam and their foreign identity intact.
But many of them manage by the boss.
And by the work of the fields.
Yet
many meetings,
we lose
brothers and sisters, I have to deal with issues. And here's the problem. And this mindset has to change serious, this mindset has to change. You want to hear about their their rights and what you can do for them and what they go through come tonight. In fact, tonight, I will show them a video clip
that touched upon
when I showed them
a video that shows two young men
cry
each one for totally different reasons.
One is tears were wasted. The other one is tears were for good and for good cause.
And I suggest that he comes tonight and watch this video and listen to the rights of children in Islam.
But here, I want you to do one thing for me brothers and sisters, let's change our mindset. Our approach.
We are still approaching this issue. We talked about the Bible
is a headache is a pain.
issue. Therefore we're trying just to make sure that they don't get in trouble. I just came from
a press conference about the open house that we have on the 19th this Sunday for our neighbors for the non Muslims
around us.
And somehow the question came up again.
What are you going to do about those policies that may cause your children to be it provides everybody's concern. And I said excuse me,
our children who are happy and come to the loss. They understand their lesson properly.
They know their principles. And they know that Islam is a religion of principle and values. And this lesson will be learned by them. And they know that has not justified me and they take these kind of opportunities to express themselves in a civil in a peaceful and an Islamic attraction and deliver their message to people and telling people what they stand for and what they believe in.
But those policies have to change as a policy right? But it's not protected. The message protects.
Brothers and sisters, this attitude has changed. And we have to approach the youth, our children with a positive mindset
keeping in mind that they are an asset.
They are an investment.
I say this and asking about some kind of commitment is awesome.
Sit down write
a poem to us.
He says a true orphan is not that
boy that lost his father or his mother.
Because
it is the one that has a father and mother, but they're totally negligent. And they were using it to visit.
So is a roof over their head.
There's a roof over their heads, they have food, they have the best cars.
But they don't have. They don't have connection. They don't have spiritual fulfillment in their lives.
Brothers and sisters, if we don't pay attention to our kids, someone else is going to get to them. And it's either they're going to totally be lost. And
someday, they might get shot somewhere, someday,
or die to the roads.
What are you talking about?
You know how many people I know that are straight A students, it might appear to be good.
In front of their parents and their parents are so proud of them. And they're alcoholic, they're on half heartedly.
The perhaps the parents have no idea whatsoever.
The parent central indeed, and then deprived from the machine, and from the connection with the community.
Very different detract from guidance.
Either they're going to get one slicer.
Or they're going to go to the internet to those websites that will radicalize
where they find people who aren't as frustrated and as depressed as they are.
And you know where that came from? Is this what we want for our children?
How long is it going to take brothers and sisters, the children are the promises and pillars that children are our responsibility.
And we have a sense of responsibility.
And everyone we asked
them for alphabet cousin said children are a gift from a boss and
they're not there to aggravate you to cause the pain. They are a gift from a loss of health and appreciate that gift.
And workout couples, please, husband and wives work out your differences for your kids. We don't want you to chill and dry them in foster homes. We have two children actually, as we speak, a seven year old boy and a girl who are an anonymous Christian for foster home. And we don't even have enough Muslim families registered as foster parents to take a break. And we're looking around find someone suitable to take care of most of this
may expose support and be exposed to
cooperation. Fortunately,
there are Listen, appreciate that lesson. And thank you once again panel guided tours taken away from
the children are the enjoyment of this life. The beauty of Islam, no matter what
amendment
purification of this man, whoever it is, this, then his children will turn into when the practicals fitment a trial and tribulation. And if that fitna continues as the answer, some of you are spouses and your children might be enemies. So be aware of that. Be careful. And if they're not enemies in this life,
then they're going to end in here.
I conclude with a story. And I'm not trying here to depress you because some of us might say, Well, what am I going to do?
They're all grown ups. All the ways.
don't connect with the loss of Hamlet that wasn't handled.
Strengthen your relationship with the Laws of Power that he that a guidance is in the hands of the Laws of Power, and hearts are controlled by the wonderful, mighty,
new is
no loss of sight, but after the sport.
And even after he lost his son, he
can no longer pay for your
training. How many of us pray what long I used to hear my father every single prayer after every single prayer. in Medina, I happen to sit next to a great chef.
And before he came sat down, he did not stop praying and celebrating the members of a wall and mentioning the names of a wall and building it for himself and for his family. For your safety. further guidance has been the most powerful and he does this every single day.
So let's get to remember our kids when they get in trouble when they bring us together.
Oh, no, Counselor, can you help me out? Can we cover this up?
Can we resolve this issue before?
What are they talking about in this fight? They're gonna know about it, they are asking,
what are you going to do?
When you're not able to cover it up, it is not late. It's never late brothers and sisters, remember anything, even if your children have left you prefer
to the first one of how, you know a man that came here
3040 years ago,
he had eight sons, he may have not been very vigilant, he may have been very careful, he was very busy trying to make a living.
So some of his children went the other way. Some of them are fine. Maybe they will find because maybe he later. And his last years of his life, maybe he became better because anyhow,
things change. I remember him trying to connect with him, try some of his friends grandchildren.
One of his grandchildren came to this great, or to this funeral with a big huge cross on his chest.
But his children must learn how to open their hearts after the loss.
If not all of the most previous roles and lots of power without a lesson that was two grandchildren born and raised here in America, who memorize them all.
And they pray for your grandfather.
So don't give up.
But you have to do something, you have to do something. But this is one of those things that we can do to support those activities and programs for where you
support them. This is what we'll say. These are the channels here. That will save us from drowning.
As the loss of habitat to protect and preserve our children, as the loss of habitat of
brothers and sisters, I would like to really take this opportunity and on behalf of the
home, some of them are touched by your generous contributions by your efforts. Some of them were touched, and they donated or they lent the money. Because one of one of the things that we have to understand that
values were disappointed for a long time.
Leadership, let me just be honest,
I mean, one of those disappointing factors was we don't have we don't have enough people doing enough
in order to earn their trust in order to earn the respect for the system.
So some of them actually came forward. And they took it upon themselves to do whatever they can to free message from this because it's a shame. I mean, it's very shameful Do you think about how are you going to go to the 30s or to the dollar programs or on campus and
when they know that synagogues and churches have had the best of
facilities,
the latest state of the art
you know, sometimes in some inside Milwaukee, I have heard this contract. I'm not making this up. I have heard you're telling me I'm embarrassed to come to the masjid and I'm embarrassed to bring my non Muslim price of admission.
So I want to thank those who contributed who are helping us we're almost
were we what we have 300
credit cards. So let's
have enough people came
along was the fact those people will contribute.
And a donation like whether it's the chandelier vendor, whoever sponsored anything original or donated all the furniture that you've seen all the all the new stuff that you see is is a donation from someone
and we asked them
but what we only have to pay
so if you want to help help for yourself, or for your children,
and you're going to get your money's worth and this
alone has given us
a lot
of money.
Bochy,
along with me

parents I told you last week that I want to talk about
our children the challenges that they face the issues that they deal with
their rights
because of what I had to encounter
in the past few weeks and in the past few months in the past few years since I came here to America since I've been working with youth.
Same story same Dragon Age repeat themselves over and over again. And it is a search people are not getting the point.
So this morning,
I heard an amazing story.
I'll tell you a modified version of it.
There was a funny morning that was issued.
This brother told me one time
threatening many towers
three
towers, preparing themselves in three different
ways. One town did not believe the forecast. And they said, Forget about it, what is it? what was gonna happen? Nothing. So they did not do anything.
And someone might say how many say that they prepare themselves when you do not prepare yourself. And, and when you do not plan
you're actually planning as they say, right?
When you fail to plan, you're actually
planning for failure.
So they didn't know their plan was a very passive one, doing nothing, everything will be fine. We'll be okay, we'll survive and survive the ones before. So they didn't do anything.
The other town
did not have a lot of time. So they went to they hired some people, they said, You know what, they didn't put a lot of planning a lot of thinking.
So they said, the easiest thing is to build
down something very solid, huge, a big one, one shot, just something something strong.
Very rarely. So just put it there, it will block any
the third town,
thought differently.
They came collectively. And they put their heads together. And they put their heads together. And they came up with some plan. The results.
The first town was totally destroyed, fully submerged. underwater, nobody survived.
The second count,
the pressure of the water was so immense that it destroyed me down.
But as they saw the cracks,
many people were able to skate with their lives.
But others were not able to.
Their account was destroyed as well.
And they are bonded to the other time, the third time to find that talent intact. Fine.
What was the plan, the people of that time they came together. And they figured
that this is something that they all have to face.
They all have to sacrifice a little bit. So they decided to put their efforts and channel the water
throughout the city and a remnant.
And when the water came
and went through and finally receded, and they were able to survive
the pressure that our children, brothers and sisters, and I suggest if you're a parent, and even if you're not a parent,
and you find kids, I suggest that you go and explore and you go and see what they have to go through. I suggest that you go to their high schools and their common schools.
I suggest that you go to their
to those websites
that they always chat.
I suggest that you do that. I suggest that you sit and watch some of the
shows that they see.
What puzzles me sometimes is that some of us are oblivious
of the amount of pressure and temptation that our kids go through.
Put yourself in their shoes.
How are they supposed to survive
these
temptations? How are they supposed to keep their Islamic identity intact
but many of them manage by the boss
and by the work of the fields.
Yet
many widows
we lose
brothers and sisters, I have to deal with issues. And here's the problem. And this mindset has to change students this mindset has to change. You want to hear about their their rights and what you can do for them and what they go through tonight. In fact, I will show them a video clip
that touched about
when I showed that that video clip
a video that shows two young men
crying
each one for totally different reasons.
One whose tears were wasted The other one is tears were good for a good cause.
And I suggest that you come tonight and watch this video and listen to the rights of children in Islam.
But here I am.
Should you do one thing for me brothers and sisters, let's change our mindset, our approach,
we are still approaching this issue that we talked about.
It's a headache, it's a pain.
But you finish their part, which try just to make sure that they don't get in trouble. I just came from
a press conference about the open house that we have, on the 19th. This Sunday for our neighbors for the non Muslims
around us.
And somehow the question came up again,
what are you going to do about those policies that may cause your children to be radicalized? Everybody's concerned, and I said, Excuse me,
our children who are acting according to the laws, they understand their lesson properly.
They know their principles. And they know that Islam is a religion of principle and values. And this is a lesson learned by them. And they know that has surprised me. And they take these kind of opportunities to express themselves in a civil and a peaceful and an Islamic attraction, and deliver their message to people and telling people what they stand for, and what they believe in.
But those policies have to change as a policy, right. But it's not protected, the machine protects.
Brothers and sisters, this attitude has changed. And we have to approach the youth, our children with a positive mindset,
keeping in mind that they are an asset.
They are an investment.
Company.
Opponents once said, basically,
he says that a true orphan is not that
boy that lost his father with his mother.
Because
it is the one that has a father and mother but they're totally
unable to see it to visit.
So is a roof over their head.
There's a roof over the heads of food and the best in cars.
But they don't have power. They don't have connection. They don't have spiritual fulfillment in their lives.
Brothers and sisters, if we don't pay attention to our case, someone else is going to get to them. And it's either they're going to totally be lost. And Monica shot someday, they might get shot somewhere, someday,
or die for the rights. And suddenly you might feel like what are you talking about?
You know how many people I know that are straight A students it might appear to be good.
In front of their parents, the parents are so proud of them. And they're alcoholic, they're hardly.
There, perhaps the parents have no idea what's
the current central idea and then deprived from the message and from the connection with their community.
Very different from guidance.
Either they're going to get lost like that.
Or they're going to go to the internet to those websites that will radicalize
where they find people who aren't as frustrated and as depressed as they are.
And you know where that came from? Is this what we want for our children?
How long is it going to take brothers and sisters?
Children are the promises are filled with children our responsibility
and we have a sense of responsibility.
And everyone will be asked on the day. The alphabet comes in says children are a gift from a boss and
they are not there to aggravate you to cause you pain. They are a gift from a loss of habitat. Appreciate that gift.
And workout couples, please. Husband and wife work out your differences for your kids. We don't want you to chill and dry them in foster homes. We have two children actually as we speak the seven year old boy or girl who are an anonymous Christian for foster home when we don't even have enough Muslim families registered as foster parents to take care of him and we're looking around to find someone suitable to take care of
was
being exposed to * and being exposed to
cooperation. Fortunately,
there are Listen, appreciate that lesson. And thank you
for staying away from
the parents and the children are the enjoyment of this life. The beauty of this life, no matter what
a moment of
purification of this one, whoever does not make this, then his children will turn into when the Broncos fitness is a trial and tribulation. And if that continues, as the answer some of your spouse's and your children might be enemies. So be aware of that, and be careful. And if they're not enemies in this life,
then they're going to be enemies in here.
I think we'll do the story. And I'm not trying here to depress you. Because some of us might say, Well, what am I going to do now? They're all grown ups. They're all like they wait,
don't connect with the loss of that phrase.
Strengthen your relationship with the loss of power that he died, a guy that is in the hands of a loss of power, and hearts are controlled by the mighty,
no.
No, loss of sight. But after that is part
and even after he lost his son,
you can no longer pay for, for your
train for the company was pretty well long. I used to hear my profit for every single prayer after every single prayer. in Medina, I have to sit next to a great ship.
And before he came sat down, he did not stop praying, and celebrating the members of a wall and mentioning the names of a lot and building alliances with him for himself and for his family, for their safety for their guidance. He was big, he was proud of that. And he does this every single day.
So let's get to remember our kids when they get in trouble when they bring us some shame. Oh, check him out. Counselor, can you help me out? Can we cover this up?
Can we resolve this issue before?
or after?
What are you going to do about that?
When you're not able to cover it up? It is not nice. Never leave brothers and sisters, even if your children unless you
ask them once you come
to the first one of Harvey Norman, that came here 3040 years ago,
he had eight sons. He may have not been very vigilant, he may have been very careful, he was very busy trying to make a living.
So some of his children went the other way. Some of them are fine. Maybe they will find one maybe he later and his last years. With this life. Maybe he became better because anyhow,
things change. I remember him trying to connect with him try some of his friends, grandchildren, genomes.
One of his grandchildren came to his grave, or to his funeral with a big huge cross on his chest.
But his children must learn how to open their hearts after the loss.
If not all of the most previous role. And a loss of power without a lesson was to grandchildren or to raise here in America. We memorize them all.
And they pray for the grandfather
in a
unit, so don't give up.
But you have to do something, you have to do something. But this is one of those things that we can do to support those activities and programs where we
support them. This is what we'll see. These are the channels here that will save us from drowning
as the loss of how
to protect and preserve our children, as the loss of habitat of
brothers and sisters, I have to really take this opportunity on behalf of the
home. Some of them are touched by your generous contribution by your efforts. Some of them were touched, and they donated or they lent the money. Because one of one of the things that we have to understand that
values were disappointed for a long time and they were so committed to me sometimes in the leadership. Let me just be honest with
you
appointing factors we don't have, we don't have enough people doing enough
in order to earn their trust in order to earn the respect for the system.
So some of them actually came forward. And they took it upon themselves to do whatever they can to free message from this because it's a shame. I mean, it's very shameful Do you think about how are you going to go to interfaith activities, or to the dollar programs or on campus and
when they know that synagogues and churches have have the best of
facilities,
the latest state of the art
you know, sometimes in some bizarre world long I have heard this and I'm not I'm not making this up. I have heard you're telling me I'm embarrassed to come to the machine, and I'm embarrassed to bring my numbers in price of admission.
So I want to thank those who contributed who are helping us we're almost
where we what we have 300 million grant so less than a million
how many people came
alive most of those people who contribute
and a donation like whether it's the veteran whoever sponsored anything original or donated, all the furniture that you see all the all the new stuff that you see is is a donation from someone
and we asked the boss
but what we only have to pay
so if you want to help help, spur yourself, for your children,
and you're going to get your money's worth at this time.
Aloha.
Aloha. Aloha.
