inshallah taking and extracting some benefit from the Hijra and

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

from the saving of Musa alayhis salam from the tarneit from. My

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

first advice is for our young brothers and sisters, or youth who

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

are students are going to school, any level of school, even college.

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

What we learned from the Hedgehog

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

is that the messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam left something

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

that is very dear and beloved to him

00:00:32 --> 00:00:36

in order to get or attain something that's much greater.

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

When he left Mecca, he left his people, he left his land, he left

00:00:42 --> 00:00:46

his wealth, he left his family, and he went to a place of

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

uncertainty.

00:00:48 --> 00:00:52

But because he trusted in Allah, we see the baraka of the Dawa of

00:00:52 --> 00:00:57

Muhammad Sallallahu wasallam until today. So the first advice that we

00:00:57 --> 00:01:02

could extract from the heads up for our beloved students, is, Do

00:01:02 --> 00:01:08

not be afraid as the school year begins to switch up your friends.

00:01:09 --> 00:01:12

Do not be scared to leave what you're accustomed to.

00:01:13 --> 00:01:18

If you discovered yourself this summer, if you committed to

00:01:18 --> 00:01:22

becoming better, then don't go back into that same vicious cycle

00:01:22 --> 00:01:26

and expose yourself to those same evils. No, you're a better person.

00:01:26 --> 00:01:30

And no matter what you leave, it'll never equate to what

00:01:30 --> 00:01:33

Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam left, that's number one.

00:01:35 --> 00:01:38

And what we could learn from the story of Musa alayhis salam

00:01:39 --> 00:01:45

is that he not only stood out, like a sore thumb amongst the

00:01:45 --> 00:01:50

people of Egypt, in the pharaohs. But even on the day that he was

00:01:50 --> 00:01:56

saved from the Pharaoh, even his own people been enthralled in who

00:01:56 --> 00:02:00

he did everything for, he helped out, sacrifice his life, put

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

himself on the line for them. They all gave up on him at the end. And

00:02:05 --> 00:02:08

they said in LM with Rocco, and they're like, You know what, Musa

00:02:08 --> 00:02:10

we're finished you let us to death.

00:02:11 --> 00:02:15

And you know what he did? He said Kilda in the manga Robesonian. He

00:02:15 --> 00:02:19

said, No way Allah is with me. So my second advice to the students

00:02:19 --> 00:02:24

is put your trust in Allah. Even if you stand out, even even if

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

you're the black sheep, even if

00:02:28 --> 00:02:32

people doubt your path, as long as you're certain in your path, and

00:02:32 --> 00:02:38

Allah is with you. Don't be scared will lie. If Muslims were at the

00:02:38 --> 00:02:41

forefront in the world brothers and sisters, you know, the only

00:02:41 --> 00:02:44

religion being preached in the world right now? Is what?

00:02:47 --> 00:02:48

Islam?

00:02:49 --> 00:02:52

And why do I say that? Because it's the only religion that's

00:02:52 --> 00:02:52

intact.

00:02:54 --> 00:02:59

All these other ideologies, they're like a tsunami. Right? But

00:02:59 --> 00:03:03

because we are strong, and we have our faith that is grounded in the

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

to the Quran, and Sunnah, that were unchanged, and authentic and

00:03:07 --> 00:03:10

will remain that way until the day of judgment. We are certain when

00:03:10 --> 00:03:16

we stand before these waves, right? So stand your ground and be

00:03:16 --> 00:03:21

strong. And know that if we give into these pressures, then we

00:03:21 --> 00:03:25

wouldn't see convergence to Islam. We wouldn't. Islam wouldn't be the

00:03:25 --> 00:03:29

fastest growing religion, if we given to every pressure of our

00:03:29 --> 00:03:32

friends and our people. Oh, they're dressed this way. Oh,

00:03:32 --> 00:03:35

they're talking about this. Oh, they're meeting up this place this

00:03:35 --> 00:03:39

weekend. No, that's, that's not. That's not what made us know what

00:03:39 --> 00:03:44

it is. So your patience, your perseverance, your steadfastness

00:03:44 --> 00:03:47

is what's gonna keep you on the path and that's why Musa alayhis

00:03:47 --> 00:03:53

salam was given what? Allah saved them because of that, right? So

00:03:53 --> 00:03:57

let's split the ocean and they crossed the clock, split the sea

00:03:57 --> 00:04:00

and he crossed the sea because of what because of his trust for

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

Allah subhanho wa taala. Right. So put your trust in Allah. Another

00:04:05 --> 00:04:07

advice for the parents.

00:04:08 --> 00:04:14

So the parents, I know we're going back into that cycle again. Right?

00:04:14 --> 00:04:17

Sometimes it's tough, you know, the daily grind, work, pick up,

00:04:17 --> 00:04:22

drop off, you know, get the stuff groceries, whatnot, and you know,

00:04:22 --> 00:04:26

Campanelli after school program now that and Quran class and Hubbs

00:04:26 --> 00:04:30

class and whatever it is, right? We're always you know, trying to

00:04:30 --> 00:04:33

keep keep everybody busy. But you know,

00:04:34 --> 00:04:37

one thing we could learn from the head of the messenger SallAllahu

00:04:37 --> 00:04:37

Nilsen

00:04:39 --> 00:04:40

is to

00:04:42 --> 00:04:44

to do what you have to do.

00:04:46 --> 00:04:52

Do what's necessary and be the example for your children instead

00:04:52 --> 00:04:57

of preaching to them, what to do? Let them see in you what they have

00:04:57 --> 00:04:59

to do. Let them see in you

00:05:00 --> 00:05:01

What they have to be like,

00:05:03 --> 00:05:07

demand respect from them, rather than ask them to respect you.

00:05:09 --> 00:05:11

Your actions are what demand respect so when Muhammad

00:05:11 --> 00:05:13

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam made hijra,

00:05:15 --> 00:05:18

he didn't just tell everyone okay, go ahead. I'm chilling here in

00:05:18 --> 00:05:21

Mecca. I'm okay because I'm from a strong family, Croatia. Nobody can

00:05:21 --> 00:05:25

touch. No, no, he didn't. He didn't even try. Oh, they made an

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

agreement with me. But you guys can move to Medina. No, he didn't

00:05:27 --> 00:05:32

do that are they slots to them. He went, he put, he sacrificed

00:05:32 --> 00:05:36

everything himself, which made it easy for everyone else made him

00:05:36 --> 00:05:39

the example. So for parents be the example.

00:05:41 --> 00:05:44

And the second thing you know, in the story of Musa alayhis salaam,

00:05:45 --> 00:05:47

what parents can extract from there's so many lessons we could

00:05:47 --> 00:05:50

take from the story of Musa alayhis salam and him being saved

00:05:50 --> 00:05:53

from the tyranny of four out right. But when he

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

Mussolini Alayhis Salam.

00:05:58 --> 00:06:00

When he put his trust in Allah, he didn't have any fear of what's

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

going to happen.

00:06:02 --> 00:06:09

He didn't look back or doubt that what he's doing was wrong at all.

00:06:09 --> 00:06:14

He didn't do anything because he was fulfilling Allah's command.

00:06:15 --> 00:06:16

So

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

with that,

00:06:20 --> 00:06:21

he wasn't

00:06:22 --> 00:06:28

saddened by the disheartening statements have been extra, you

00:06:28 --> 00:06:33

know, bending soil, how much did Musa put up with them? They lived

00:06:33 --> 00:06:37

amongst the pharaohs for about 30 years. They saw nine of the

00:06:37 --> 00:06:41

greatest miracles in the history of mankind. They were exposed to

00:06:41 --> 00:06:46

everything. And Musa alayhis salam sacrificed his life in the palace

00:06:46 --> 00:06:49

of the Pharaoh and back, we could have squashed his beef with Iran.

00:06:49 --> 00:06:53

But he didn't. He went, and he did everything to save them. And then

00:06:53 --> 00:06:57

when he came to a point, they dropped him in a heartbeat and

00:06:57 --> 00:06:58

said, call us in Aleppo.

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

Did that sound and Musa alayhis salam? No, because he had his

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

trust in Allah and he knew what he was doing was right. So what I'm

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

saying to the parents, sometimes our kids, they say things to us

00:07:12 --> 00:07:17

that dishearten us. They make us sad. We wonder after everything we

00:07:17 --> 00:07:21

did for them. Why are you saying this to me? Why are you doing this

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

to me? I'm putting my life I'm working. I'm spending I'm

00:07:24 --> 00:07:28

providing him. I'm sacrificing everything for you. And then you

00:07:28 --> 00:07:30

tell me this. Don't be disheartened.

00:07:32 --> 00:07:36

But persevere. And be patient Musa alayhis salam after they said that

00:07:36 --> 00:07:40

you think he took tabs on him? The sea was split. Oh, you you're the

00:07:40 --> 00:07:43

one that was telling me that was telling me how we're about to get

00:07:43 --> 00:07:46

Kyle you're not no longer a believer. How was your castaway?

00:07:46 --> 00:07:49

No, he didn't say that. He sent me He taught him a lesson was like

00:07:49 --> 00:07:53

You see, Allah is with us guys. Did they learn some of them still

00:07:53 --> 00:07:56

didn't learn even after the sea was split Subhanallah there's so

00:07:56 --> 00:08:01

much we can learn as students, as parents and even as teachers,

00:08:02 --> 00:08:05

right? And inshallah Tada, I don't want to make this a long talk.

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

There's so much we could extract from the Hijra from the story of

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

Musa alayhis salam. But as we get back into school, get back into

00:08:11 --> 00:08:15

the grind. Inshallah, make sure we strive for excellence, make sure

00:08:15 --> 00:08:20

we we turn a new page just like this new year kind of started in

00:08:20 --> 00:08:25

the new Islamic month. Let it be a year where we accomplish things we

00:08:25 --> 00:08:30

never thought we can accomplish. Let us start this year as a person

00:08:30 --> 00:08:35

and end it as someone who we always want it to be. Let us be by

00:08:35 --> 00:08:39

the end of the year, the person who we look at Man, I wish I could

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

be that person.

00:08:41 --> 00:08:42

I wish I could be like that person.

00:08:45 --> 00:08:50

Is it hard? Well, life's not hard. So let's think of that. And let's

00:08:50 --> 00:08:55

strive for the goal and let's be persistent Inshallah, we'll meet

00:08:55 --> 00:08:59

you have to look at Allah Allah He for who has and whoever puts their

00:08:59 --> 00:09:03

trust in Allah, then Allah is all they need. May Allah may Allah

00:09:03 --> 00:09:06

make us from those who put put their full entire trust in him? I

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

mean the exact Malankara Salaam Alaikum

What's going on? I don't

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