			me
		
00:00:56 --> 00:01:01
			to not see the past few days
because of the situation that
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:04
			we're in May Allah subhanaw taala
Hastin uplifting of this
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:08

And we ask Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:19
			for us to end this pandemic Insha
Allah, and to make us from those
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:23
			who are patient in it. I mean,
you're on the line, I mean, so
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:25
			this session is directed towards
the youth.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:31
			A lot of them have been reaching
out to me, and a lot of you guys
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			have been reaching out to me.
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:38
			Just talking about what they're
feeling, what you're feeling,
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:43
			the things that changed and how
this changed impacted you how it
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:47
			impacted your spirituality. Not
only are you not able to come to
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:51
			the masjid, but you're also not
able to connect with your own
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:55
			friends, chill with your own
friends the way you would do on a
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:55
			normal day.
		
00:01:56 --> 00:02:01
			And this is something I'm sure
would really strike your faith or
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:05
			your Eman. Especially in a time
like this times of uncertainty
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:07
			times when you don't know
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:11
			what to think we have a lot of
conspiracy theories going around.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:14
			Some people are saying this thing
is gonna last for a long time.
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:17
			Some people are saying Oh, it's
just one week, and then I'll go
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:23
			by. And these times of uncertainty
can cause us like anxiety.
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:25
			Sometimes they can cause us
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:34
			it can make us sad in the inside,
but what the purpose of this talk
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:38
			inshallah and this series that I'm
going to start is to connect with
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:41
			you guys. And that's what I want
to do. I want to connect with
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:45
			every single one of you out there
for half a half an hour every day,
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:49
			from four to 430. Inshallah,
today's called boys to men. And
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:53
			then we're going to have another
two sessions on Tuesdays and
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:57
			Thursdays called Reflections, I
want to tune into both of them,
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:02
			but in the light Allah. So to
start off this lecture insha Allah
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:06
			now because we ate, ate up about
10 minutes of the lecture time, so
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:09
			it will be about 20 minutes in sha
Allah to Allah.
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:11
			It's called Boys to Men.
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:20
			It's this age that we like all of
us, or some of us are going
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:20
			through.
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:25
			And I'm talking to the viewers
right now. Some of us went through
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:27
			some of us are about to go through
this phase.
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:32
			We call it adolescence, and then
there's a time called puberty,
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:38
			right there, in the middle of this
adolescence, that we start feeling
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:44
			changes in ourselves, in our
emotions, in our mindset, the way
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:49
			we see things, our relationships
with our families, and this is
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:53
			exactly what I wanted to address
with this series we had the like
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:56
			that. So Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:02
			with His Divine Wisdom, made us go
through different stages and
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:07
			phases in our lives. And this by
the wisdom of Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:12
			the first stage we begin with is
the one Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:16
			mentioned in surah Menon, Allah
subhanaw taala said, well look at
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:21
			the Hala canal insane I mean Sula
Tamil clean. Allah created mankind
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:23
			from a lineage of what of clean
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:27
			of dirt of mud
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:34
			from Jana who to fatten fee karar
in McKean. Then he began with what
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:40
			with a single droplet. We all
began from a single droplet, and
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:44
			that was our first phase from the
Halacha note of Metallica for Hala
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:48
			canal for Harlequin Allah Allah
cotta MOBA for Hala, Cornell
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:52
			mobile, Hatha, Ivana for CASA Luna
la mala. And look at the phases
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:57
			here. The first is clay, and then
a single droplet. And then after
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			the droplet Allah subhanaw taala
made us into a cloth
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			And then into a piece of flesh,
and then from that piece of flesh
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:09
			created bones, and then covered
those bones with meat, and then
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:14
			grew us to the babies that we were
born into this life, being we were
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:18
			babies in the beginning
SubhanAllah. And then we continue
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:22
			to grow. And we climb from one
phase to another first, we can't
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:27
			crawl, we can't walk, we can only
breastfeed from our parents from
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:30
			our mother. And then after we
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:34
			grow up a little, we start to
crawl, and then we start to walk.
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:39
			And then we start discovering
things. And then Subhanallah, one
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:44
			thing at a time, and one phase at
a time, we begin to learn words,
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:48
			we begin to learn concepts, ideas
were introduced to things. And
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			then at a certain point,
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:55
			it was around like the age of 10.
And that's the beginning of
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			adolescence,
		
00:05:57 --> 00:06:02
			we start to have this thing called
dem yeas, what are called to me is
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:03
			we start
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:09
			knowing what's good and what's bad
based on our our limited past
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:10
			experiences.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:14
			And then after this phase of
tummies,
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:22
			we grow until we reach the age of
puberty. And these are different
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:25
			milestones. Obviously, the first
milestone is when we have to pray,
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:30
			the prophets I seldom he told us
to order our kids to, to pray at
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:31
			the age of seven.
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:37
			And then to emphasize on it
strongly at the age of 10.
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:42
			So this is something that
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:48
			we need to remember the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, when
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:55
			he told parents to tell the kids
to pray at the age of seven. And
		
00:06:55 --> 00:07:00
			then at the age of 10, that means
that by the age of seven, the
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:05
			child should be able to understand
what it means to connect to our
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:10
			Lord, what it means to worship
God, and by the age of 10. If they
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:15
			don't get it, then we should even
emphasize it more strongly so that
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:15
			they
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:18
			so that they do pray, they do
connect with their Lord.
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:26
			But in this age, the child still
isn't required to pray, although
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:29
			we as parents are required to
teach them but the child isn't
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:31
			required to pray it.
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:38
			And this is the beauty of it. So
even if the child doesn't pray,
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:43
			what Allah subhanaw taala hold
them accountable for it. No, not
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:48
			until a certain age. And this is
the age of puberty.
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:54
			Allah subhanaw taala, you know,
changes the person in this age.
		
00:07:54 --> 00:07:57
			Allah subhanaw taala says what
either Bella, an apple fine woman
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:00
			couldn't and Hello, hey, Phil,
yesterday, no chemistry than
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:04
			aluminum. And probably, if not
foil, if the child gets to the age
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:10
			of puberty, then things change.
Instead of just entering into a
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:13
			room, or a house, going into your
aunt's house, going into your
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:14
			parents room.
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:19
			It's not the same anymore, you
have to ask for permission because
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:20
			now you're grown.
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:24
			Now you're older. Now you're
responsible. Now you're
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			accountable. And these are things
that you have
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:33
			to know. As soon as you get to
that age, everything transforms in
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:34
			your life. So Panama.
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:41
			So this is perhaps one of the most
important times of your life. Your
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:45
			life, no matter how much you live,
you live 7080 90 years, 100 years.
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:49
			This is the most important time of
your life, why?
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:54
			The prophets I send them says in
Hadith
		
00:08:56 --> 00:09:01
			roofie I'll call him on Salah that
the pen has been lifted on three
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:04
			types of people. The pen has been
lifted on three types of people,
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:08
			meaning the pen of writing the
actions, the good and the bad
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:13
			deeds. So the child doesn't really
have an angel writing, what
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:16
			they're doing, whether it's good
or bad. Do they get the pleasure
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:20
			of doing good but let's say they
do ombre? For example, they do so
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:22
			of course they get the reward for
it. But if they do something bad,
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:25
			do they get sin? No, not until the
age of puberty.
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:27
			So
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:33
			the column this pen of writing
their deeds has been lifted.
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:38
			For who only three people. The
first Linda M had to stick with
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:41
			the one who's asleep until they
wake up so somebody is held
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:45
			accountable for what they do when
they're sleepwalking. They say
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:49
			something that's wrong when
they're asleep. They aren't held
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:49
			accountable for
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:54
			what his sabe had to tell him and
for a child until they get to the
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:58
			age of puberty and little Majnoon
hut
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			and for someone
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:05
			and who lost his mind was insane
until they become sane. So some
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:06
			people have these
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:13
			times when they're out of their
mind, and Allah subhanaw taala,
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:18
			does not write down what they do
in this time, if it's bad, because
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:21
			their mind wasn't there at the
time. And this is from the Mercy
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:23
			of Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:25
			But this is serious.
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:27
			When you think about it,
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:34
			it is a very big, it's a huge
transformation, somebody who's
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:38
			only been introduced to this
world, on average, 15 years ago.
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:43
			Right? So at 15 years old, they
reached the age of puberty, and
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:45
			then what happens Subhanallah
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:49
			all of a sudden, everything just
falls on top of their head.
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:54
			They're required to do this, Allah
is writing their sins. They're
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:58
			required to lower their gaze, they
can't enter certain places
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:02
			anymore, they can't see certain
people anymore. They, they're
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:07
			required to do everything, Allah
subhanaw taala obligated a fully
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:12
			grown man and a fully grown woman
SubhanAllah. This age, and this is
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:13
			a huge transformation.
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18
			But what makes it very challenging
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:20
			is that
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:27
			we're held accountable in front of
Allah subhanho wa taala, on the
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:32
			day of judgment for things that we
do in this stage of our life.
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:36
			We're still inexperienced, we
still don't have knowledge, we
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:40
			still didn't see the world yet.
Most of us we've been in our
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:43
			parents house, maybe we seen a few
things here. And there. We watched
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:44
			a few things here. And there.
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:49
			We we seen some shows, we have
some friends that told us their
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:52
			experiences, we learned a little
from them. But did we really see
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:57
			the world? No SubhanAllah? But are
we required to fulfill our duties
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:01
			towards Allah subhanaw taala? Yes,
after the age of puberty, so it's
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:06
			a serious change. And it's, it's
very challenging for who it's
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:10
			challenging for the youth who get
to this age, and it's challenging
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:15
			for the parents. It's challenging
for the youth. Because from their
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:19
			perspective, they see things as
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:26
			just, you know, they think their
children, they feel their
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:28
			children, they think they can get
away with things that they used
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:32
			to, they can say things that they
used to, they can do things that
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:36
			they used to before they reach
this age. And then all of a
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:42
			sudden, they're required to be
treated like adults. And it's
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:44
			challenging for the parents as
well, because of parents
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:47
			Subhanallah, they still see them
as that little kid that ran
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:51
			around, they used to change
diapers for these to pacify
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:55
			SubhanAllah. And then all of a
sudden, this kid has their own
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:59
			mindset, their own conact their
own beliefs. They challenge
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:03
			certain things, they challenge
culture, they challenge things
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:08
			around them, education systems
patterns, they have the ability to
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:13
			critique. And they can express
themselves. And sometimes parents
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:18
			have a hard time adjusting to
this. So parents should keep this
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:23
			in mind that when a child gets to
this age, the parent is
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:28
			responsible for them, but not
really responsible for them in the
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:33
			sense that they're getting sin for
what they do know what the parents
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:38
			did. They did their job before the
age of puberty. The parents did
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:42
			everything they can to get them to
this age,
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:46
			so that they have the ability to
understand
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:52
			the harms that are around them, by
the time they get to it, and this
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:55
			is what it is. And this is what we
like every parent needs to
		
00:13:55 --> 00:13:56
			understand.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:01
			The child should be prepared by
the age of puberty, they should
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:04
			know. But the problem here is
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:06
			that
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:14
			the youth don't understand how
much of a responsibility it is to
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:18
			be someone who crossed this
threshold and move to this new
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:23
			phase in their life. The Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:27
			in a hadith let the Zulu cuddlebug
know Adam, Yeoman clear Marathi
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:33
			and the rugby he had to organize
the rugby he had the use of one
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:38
			humps that the person's foot will
not move on the day of judgment
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:42
			from in front of their Lord until
they're asked about five things.
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:44
			What are these five things?
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:53
			The first is I normally he female
Hefner, his life and how he spent
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:57
			it. So this is all life.
Understandable. Obviously on the
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			Day of Judgment, we're going to be
asked about how we lived
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:06
			The second is unsure birbee He
female oblah The second is on
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:11
			sugarbeet female habla their youth
and how they spent it.
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:16
			So first is life in general. And
then the prophets I send them just
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:22
			specified something he said no,
but specifically the youth and how
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:27
			you spent your youth and he said a
blur meaning wasted it. And this
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:31
			is something this is a Shara. This
is the prophets I send them wants
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:36
			us to understand something that
this time of youth is either used
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:41
			wisely, or it's wasted. And we'll
talk about that a little later in
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:45
			sha Allah Tada. The third is,
well, Maddie, he made a necklace
		
00:15:45 --> 00:15:48
			about their money and where they
received it from whether it was
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:52
			from Halal means or haram means.
The fourth is what FEMA and forgot
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:55
			and how they spent their money.
Whether it was FISA being allowed
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:59
			for the sake of Allah and good
causes, and helping others and
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:04
			helping themselves doing good or
doing bad. And the fifth is why
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:07
			men are there I mean, a female
item. And what did you do with
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:12
			what you knew? Did you act upon
this knowledge? You come to the
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:15
			masjid, you attend lectures, you
say, I listened to this shift, I
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:18
			listened to that chair. But what
did you do with all this
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:21
			knowledge? Is any of it being
implemented?
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:26
			A lot of times it isn't? Well, we
ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:28
			make us from those who implement
the knowledge that they have. I
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:29
			mean, you're blind I mean.
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:34
			So why did the prophets I seldom
specify the age of Shabaab, it's
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:38
			because this is the age that we're
filled with energy, we have a lot
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:42
			of energy, zeal, we're looking at
this world, and we want to take it
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:45
			over, we want to know what's out
there, we want to explore we want
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:46
			to see we want to discover,
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:52
			but there is a positive and
there's a negative side to this
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:57
			age. So the positive is that we're
very we're we're in close contact
		
00:16:57 --> 00:17:00
			our fitrah. So our fitrah
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:06
			hasn't been skewed or altered with
all of these false ideologies and,
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:10
			and all of these desires that are
around us this show on this show
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:12
			bohat that are floating around,
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:17
			we still haven't been exposed to
it to a point where our fifth our
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:21
			natural disposition has been
skewed. So because we're so close
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:25
			to the fifth row, it's easy to
stay on it. So that's the positive
		
00:17:25 --> 00:17:31
			aspect. But the negative aspect is
that we make critical and big
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:35
			decisions in our life in this age,
or we try to or some of us try to,
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:38
			when we still don't have knowledge
and experience.
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:43
			We don't have a lot of knowledge,
because you didn't have time to
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:49
			read or to know where to watch or
to see. And you didn't have that
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:51
			many experiences in your life. How
many people could you have
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:56
			possibly interacted with how many
jobs could you have possibly had?
		
00:17:56 --> 00:18:02
			How many experiences you think you
had at this age, the age 1516 1718
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:08
			We think whatever experiences we
had are suffice to make to make a
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:10
			good judgment but in reality,
they're not.
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:14
			We have a lot of energy so it
makes us make the wrong choices
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:18
			sometimes so we have to be very
wary and inshallah later on I'm
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:22
			going to give advice and five
different points as to how we
		
00:18:22 --> 00:18:26
			should, what we should do and how
we can take advantage of this age
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:27
			and Sharla Tyler
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:35
			so is the reward. Big Yes, it's
big. And that's because the
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:37
			challenge is big as well. The
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:42
			sallam he said in a hadith seven
people. sabato nuloom lofi Lily
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:45
			Yamuna, Linda in Avila, seven
people that Allah subhanho wa
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:49
			Taala shades in his shade, the
shade of what the shade of his
		
00:18:49 --> 00:18:53
			throne Subhana wa Taala May Allah
subhanaw taala shade us all on
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:56
			this. And this is specifically for
the youth. The first one is Imam
		
00:18:56 --> 00:19:02
			on iodin Imam and Adam adjust
leader about just leader that's
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:05
			that's something big we can
understand why adjust leader will
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:08
			be shaded with the shade of Allah
on the day of judgment on a day
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:10
			where there's no shade, but his
shade.
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:16
			But the next one, it really it's
really interesting prophets I
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:16
			seldom said
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:22
			was shabu Nisha of your party,
Allah, a sharp, someone who's
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:25
			young that grew up in obedience to
Allah.
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:29
			So one had to run a whole country
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:35
			or a whole empire. And he gets the
edger of what being shaded with
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:40
			the shade of Allah and the other
Subhanallah gets what? Just a Shem
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:46
			who grew up from the age of 10
Let's say up until he became a
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:52
			young adult, but he grew up in
obedience to Allah He grew up in a
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:55
			masjid May Allah subhanaw taala
return us to our massages. I mean,
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:59
			you're obliged I mean, may Allah
subhanaw taala relieve us from
		
00:19:59 --> 00:19:59
			from this
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:05
			virus and the situation that we're
in and reunite us. In our masajid
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:06
			I mean your blood.
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:09
			So someone who grew up in
obedience of Allah and it's very
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:15
			difficult, it's not easy. The road
of Jannah was paved with hardship
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:18
			the prophets like Selim said her
fertile Jana to be maclary. That
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:24
			the road to Jannah is hard. It's
not easy. But once you once you
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:28
			seek this path, and once you
embark on this journey to Allah,
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:32
			Allah subhanaw taala promises you
that it will be easy.
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:37
			And that you will be content and
in your heart you will be pleased.
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:42
			But all you have to do is make
that decision to start the journey
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:46
			towards Allah subhanaw taala and
towards paradise. Are you going to
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:51
			do it today? That's your question.
Are you going to do the five
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:55
			things that I'm going to ask you
to do Inshallah, in a little bit,
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:58
			we'll see when I mentioned them in
sha Allah, they're going to be
		
00:20:58 --> 00:21:03
			very easy, implementable, and I'm
sure I'm sure Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:07
			will assist you in fulfilling your
rights towards him charlatan.
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:15
			Some of the LMS said that this age
was emphasized in the previous a
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:20
			hadith, because we have the two
things that a lot of people that
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:24
			pass this age don't really have.
The prophets I seldom said me, I'm
		
00:21:24 --> 00:21:29
			attorney Mark Boone on fee Hema
Ibnu Adam, there are two numbers
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:35
			two blessings that we really don't
appreciate until we lose. He said
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:39
			Assa when for our health and free
time.
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:44
			And the peak of health and free
time is at this age, because we
		
00:21:44 --> 00:21:46
			don't really have
responsibilities. We don't need to
		
00:21:46 --> 00:21:50
			spend on a family. We don't need
to have a full time job. You know,
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:53
			we have to study for school, but
it's nothing compared to the
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:57
			responsibilities we're going to
have the rest of our life. So we
		
00:21:57 --> 00:22:00
			have this free time. And now we
have a lot of it because we're
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:04
			sitting at home. A lot of the
universities, the schools all
		
00:22:04 --> 00:22:08
			shifted to online schooling. So
Subhanallah we have a lot of free
		
00:22:08 --> 00:22:11
			time now. We get our stuff done.
And then okay, what am I going to
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:16
			do? Am I going to sit there on on
Snap on Instagram, tick tock? Am I
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:19
			just going to watch videos on
YouTube all day? Things that don't
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:22
			benefit me in any way? Or am I
going to fill my time with
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:26
			something productive? Something
that develops me something that
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:29
			gets me closer to Allah subhanaw
taala. That's what you have to ask
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:30
			yourself.
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:32
			So now the big question is,
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:36
			how do I take advantage of this
age? All right, we heard that it's
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:41
			an important age. We know we have
to take advantage of it. But how
		
00:22:41 --> 00:22:44
			do I do that? Okay, so these are
the five points if you want to
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:48
			write them down, you can show
them. The first is to make the
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:55
			choices that you make in this age,
based on proofs and evidence based
		
00:22:55 --> 00:22:58
			on proofs and evidence from the
Quran, from the Sunnah from the
		
00:22:58 --> 00:23:02
			alcohol from the edge mount what
you see is what's commonly known
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:06
			as good is good. The prophets I
seldom said this. No matter how
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:10
			nice hasn't felt wasn't my Rohan
NAS? cobia for Hua kabhi. What do
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:14
			people see as good as good? What
do people see as bad as bad So, so
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:18
			this is something that you can
use, as well. And I'm talking
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:22
			about good people, not bad people,
by the way. So the second is
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:25
			taming your inner desires, oh, the
lights are back on.
		
00:23:28 --> 00:23:33
			So taming your inner desires,
every single one of us has, like
		
00:23:33 --> 00:23:36
			we're filled with these desires
that Allah subhanaw taala is
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:41
			testing us with, but that's why
the reward is huge. It's because
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:44
			the desires that Allah subhanaw
taala placed in us, the problems
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:47
			that we go through our mind is
developing our emotions are
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:52
			developing our psyches,
everything's growing Subhanallah
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:57
			so we need to tame these desires
that arise from this as a result
		
00:23:57 --> 00:23:57
			of this growth.
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:03
			Number three is choosing good
friends. Having good people around
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:08
			you. Do these people helped me get
closer to Allah. Are these people
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:13
			assisting me in accomplishing my
goals in life? Do I see myself
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:17
			successful? Talking or associating
with this person? Or do I see
		
00:24:17 --> 00:24:22
			myself as a failure? A drug addict
and alcoholic someone who just
		
00:24:22 --> 00:24:25
			wastes their time and does nothing
because look, we you might not be
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:28
			doing haram with a friend right
maybe you're doing everything
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:31
			hummed Allah Allah you're just
playing video games are tough but
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:34
			some people just waste your time.
You weren't made for this and this
		
00:24:34 --> 00:24:38
			is something you have to think of.
You want me just to kill your time
		
00:24:38 --> 00:24:41
			have a problem Allah subhanaw
taala said in the first symptom
		
00:24:41 --> 00:24:45
			under mahalo Conoco Madison. Do
you think we just created you for
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:49
			nothing for no purpose? Well under
come Elena letter, Joan, and that
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:52
			you will never return to Allah?
No. Of course you Of course not.
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:55
			You're going to return to Allah.
You're going to stand in front of
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:59
			Allah. Your actions are something
you're held accountable for.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:06
			Once you reach this age, you're
going to be held accountable for
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:08
			every thing you do.
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:13
			Number four is seeking advice from
people have knowledge and
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:17
			experience. Ask people have
knowledge, study with a scholar,
		
00:25:17 --> 00:25:21
			be close to a scholar have someone
who you're in constant contact
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:24
			with hamdulillah in the community,
we have plenty of machinery of
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:28
			plenty of sanity that you can
reach out to them, have a close
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:31
			connection with them, ask them,
maybe what you're feeling is
		
00:25:31 --> 00:25:36
			something you can overcome no
time. All you needed to do is ask
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:39
			a question, but some people keep
doing it. No, they won't. No, no,
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:43
			you're not going to know until you
try. Give it a try. Ask them. They
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:46
			might tell you something that'll
change your whole life. Just reach
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:52
			out. And that's that's the fourth
point and show number five is
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:58
			Don't waste your time. You have a
lot of time right now. You have a
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:02
			lot of time. We're at home. We're
quarantine Coronavirus is all over
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:05
			the place, and most likely we're
going to be quarantined even more
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:08
			right now, we can't get you know,
they don't recommend recommend
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:11
			gatherings of more than 10 But
later on, they might just say stay
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:15
			home. Okay, if we stay home, what
do we do? Set a goal for yourself.
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:19
			If you always wanted to memorize
the Quran, do it now. Make a
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:23
			schedule reach out to people who
did it before people who who
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:26
			memorize the Quran, who have a
technique that you can benefit
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:30
			from and start it right now. And
Allah subhanaw taala will help you
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:33
			do it. And we'll assist you. The
second
		
00:26:36 --> 00:26:40
			is if you want if you wanted to
read books, if you'd like to read
		
00:26:40 --> 00:26:43
