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

Did you know that

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

every one of you seated here has contributed

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

towards the protection

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

of

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

the word of Allah?

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

Every one of you

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

has contributed towards

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

the protection

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

of the word of Allah. You might want

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

to know how.

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

Do you know how?

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

Let me explain.

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

Who knows Surah Al Fatiha? Put up your

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

hand.

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

Can we read it together? Repeat after me,

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

or with me, with me.

00:00:59--> 00:01:01

Who from amongst you does not know the

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

Arabic language? Put up your hands high.

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

High.

00:01:07--> 00:01:09

That's the majority of you. But what did

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

you do? You read an entire surah of

00:01:12--> 00:01:16

the Quran in Arabic, and I'm sure you

00:01:16--> 00:01:18

know the meanings of those words. Even though

00:01:18--> 00:01:21

you don't speak Arabic, you don't really understand

00:01:22--> 00:01:25

deeper Arabic. But some of these surahs, did

00:01:25--> 00:01:27

you not make an effort to learn them

00:01:27--> 00:01:29

the way they were revealed? If the answer

00:01:29--> 00:01:31

is yes, congratulations.

00:01:31--> 00:01:34

Allah used you to contribute towards the preservation

00:01:34--> 00:01:35

of the Quran.

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

People say, why do I have to read

00:01:38--> 00:01:41

the Quran in Arabic in salah? When I

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

stand up in prayer and I say Allahu

00:01:42--> 00:01:43

Akbar,

00:01:44--> 00:01:46

and I have to read verses of the

00:01:46--> 00:01:48

Quran in Arabic, I get asked a question,

00:01:48--> 00:01:50

can I not read in English? And the

00:01:50--> 00:01:51

answer is

00:01:52--> 00:01:53

not in salah.

00:01:53--> 00:01:55

In the prayer, you have to read the

00:01:55--> 00:01:56

Arabic.

00:01:57--> 00:01:59

And then the question comes, but why? The

00:01:59--> 00:02:01

answer is, we are taught to adjust

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

ourselves in order

00:02:04--> 00:02:07

to understand the word of Allah. Not to

00:02:07--> 00:02:10

adjust the word of Allah for us to

00:02:10--> 00:02:11

understand it. You need to contribute

00:02:12--> 00:02:14

towards the preservation of the book. And when

00:02:14--> 00:02:17

Allah.

00:02:14--> 00:02:17

Allah.
