00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			I am I want to cry when I
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			say this because I see brothers and sisters
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:06
			who are mashaAllah salah is there. They are
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			on the straight and narrow. They follow Quran.
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			They follow sunnah. They are interested in the
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:13
			deen and so on. But the way they
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:16
			look at their own brothers and sisters is
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19
			with the dirtiest of hearts. Their intention is
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22
			to belittle unless you follow exactly what my
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25
			sheikh says, you are totally out. I'm not
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:26
			going to sit with you, talk to you,
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			eat with you, look at you, reply your
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:31
			greeting or greet you. My brother, what din
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:34
			do you want? What type of communication of
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:37
			dawah do you want? When Firaun was addressed
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39
			by Musa alaihis salam, he went
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:41
			and he told him
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:43
			that
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:47
			we want you to leave
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:50
			stop oppressing them, harming them
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:53
			and send them. Then there was a communication.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:56
			Who are you? Meaning, on what basis are
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			you coming here? He says, I'm sent by
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			Allah.
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:02
			Because he grew up in the same home.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:04
			He grew up in the same home.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:09
			And then there was a discussion. He asked
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:09
			a question,
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:16
			He says
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:19
			is the Lord. He sent me. You should
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			worship him.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:22
			So he explained.
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			He says, look, this is who he is.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			He did not swear. He did not belittle.
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:31
			He did there was so much of respect.
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			Then he was he was given a warning
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			by Firaun,
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:37
			threat, a threat.
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			Even the threat was responded to the beautiful
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:41
			way.
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:43
			Then Firaun told him,
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47
			what proof do you have that you are
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:48
			a nabi? He says, I've got 2 things.
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:51
			Here they are. Few things given by Allah.
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:52
			It's okay
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:54
			to give you some time.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			We plan. We want to see who's right
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:57
			and who's wrong.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			Wallahi. From that, I learn a lot. It's
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:01
			a big story. But for the people in
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:05
			Dawah, it's always beneficial to look into these
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:05
			things.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:09
			And don't be mistaken. I never would ask
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			you to compromise the hub you believe you
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			are on.
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			Never.
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			All I'm saying is
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:18
			don't believe you are the only 1
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			who is right
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			because of an interpretation
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:24
			of your Sheikh.
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:26
			Do you get what I'm saying?
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:29
			People ask me,
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:31
			who is your sheikh? My sheikh is the
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:33
			prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:34
			Yes. Allah.
