00:00:00 --> 00:00:03
			Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:26
			smilla rahmanir rahim al hamdu lillahi wa Salatu was Salam ala rasulillah Allah Allah He was Javier
Jemaine All praise is due to Allah subhanho wa Taala blessings and salutations upon Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, his household, his companions May Allah subhanho wa Taala bless them
all, and bless every one of us, my brothers and sisters in Islam.
		
00:00:27 --> 00:01:21
			The biggest gift I have today is the fact that I am a member of the beautiful aroma of Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wasallam the fact that I'm a Muslim, the fact that I'm a Moke, meaning I have a
man, I am a Muslim. And what that means is I believe that there is none worthy of worship besides my
maker Allah. And I believe that Muhammad peace be upon him is the final messenger of Allah subhanho
wa Taala. That makes me a Muslim, I believe that I shall pray five times a day something known as
Salah, which is not just a supplication, but it is a way of worshipping my maker that he has chosen.
I started off with an intention saying Allahu Akbar, and I ended with a Salaam, the slim.
		
00:01:22 --> 00:02:10
			And in between the two, I will do what my maker has taught me through the most Beloved Muhammad
peace be upon him. I am a Muslim, so I will pray in that way five times a day. But I will also
supplicate in terms of the law and the different type of prayer. That would be because in the
English language, when I say I pray, it could and would include a supplication. So I pray before I
eat because I'm a Muslim. I pray before I sleep because I'm a Muslim, I pray when I get up, I'm
supplicating to Allah, we say Alhamdulillah all praises due to Allah, because I'm a Muslim, I will
be honest, because I'm a Muslim. So I am a Muslim, I will pray five times a day. And on top of that,
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:28
			I will continue with various other types of prayer that have been taught by Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, I'm a Muslim. So I will fast in the month of Ramadan, I will make sure that I
abstain from what the Almighty has asked me to abstain from because I'm a Muslim.
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			I'm a Muslim. So
		
00:02:33 --> 00:03:18
			I will give charity to the poor, something known as Zechariah, two and a half percent of my wealth,
I will make sure it goes to the underprivileged and the poor. I'm a Muslim. So I will reach out to
the poor in ways greater than merely giving them two and a half percent, I'm a Muslim. So I will
respect and honor those who are poor, those who are underprivileged and have less than me, that's
what makes me a Muslim. I'm a Muslim, so I will consider it a great favor of the Almighty when a
need of another person is made apparent to me so that I can be used to alleviate that particular
suffering or the need that the person is going through for the sake of the Almighty. That's what
		
00:03:18 --> 00:04:02
			makes me a Muslim. I'm a Muslim. So I will reach out to people Muslim as well as non Muslim because
I believe they are the creatures of Allah subhanho wa Taala. I believe that he who made me made
every one of them. That's what makes me a Muslim. I am a Muslim. So I will reach out to the animals
because they are the creatures of the Almighty the Almighty has made them that's what makes me a
Muslim. I'm a Muslim. So I will reach out to absolutely everyone, even my enemy, I will pray for
him. That's what makes me a Muslim, I would say a good prayer because I'm a Muslim, and I believe in
Allah, I'm a Muslim. So I will ensure that I do not damage or destroy the environment or the
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:04
			ecosystem. Because I'm a Muslim,
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:49
			I will try my best to remove a harmful object from the path of the people because I'm a Muslim,
because my Prophet taught me that if there is a harmful object on the road, if you remove it, you
will be rewarded. It is a part of your faith and your belief Subhanallah that's what makes me a
Muslim. I'm a Muslim. So I will make sure that I do not believe myself in the path of the people. I
will make sure that when I relieved myself, I do so in the most respectful way. And I keep myself as
clean as possible physically, as well as every other form of cleanliness. I'm a Muslim, so I will
make sure that I speak with respect to everyone. I will not use vulgar words. That's what makes me a
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:59
			Muslim. If I use bad words, then how can I call myself a true Muslim, my brothers and sisters I'm a
Muslim. So therefore, I will
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:15
			sure that as far as possible, I will honor every single creature that is created by me, who made me,
my brothers and sisters, I'm a Muslim. So wherever possible, I will go
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:20
			for the Hajj at least once in my lifetime.
		
00:05:22 --> 00:06:06
			And I will make sure that that happens quickly, as soon as I can, once I can afford it because my
maker has taught me to respect the sacrifice of all the messengers of the Almighty. And in this
case, Ibrahim alayhis salam as well as Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the Prophet Abraham May
peace be upon him what he went through, I really am inspired by because I'm a Muslim. And therefore,
I will try my best to go to Makkah to make sure that I fulfill that pilgrimage as per the teaching
of Muhammad Sallallahu wasallam in order not just to commemorate the life of the Prophet Ibrahim
alayhi salam, but in order to fulfill the instruction of Allah subhanho wa Taala. So these are the
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:19
			five pillars of Islam. Firstly, I believe there is none with worthy of worship besides Allah and
Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam is the final messenger, I pray five times a day, I give charity to the
poor.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:50
			I will ensure that I fast during the month of Ramadan, and I make sure that if I can, and when I
can, I will go for Hajj. And if possible, obviously not from among the pillars, but I will go for
Amara because the holy lands are very, very dear to me as a Muslim, I will pray for their safety and
security. And I will try my best to connect myself to this beautiful place known as Makkah and
Medina. Because what is dear to me? Is there
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:59
			Subhana Allah, I'm a Muslim, so I will go to the house of Allah as much as I can on a daily basis.
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:13
			Because it's the house of my maker. Why am I saying this? I'm saying this because all of us are
Muslim. And for those who may not be Muslim, who will be listening to this, while I want you to
know, this is what makes me a Muslim.
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:46
			I'm a Muslim, so I will be polite. I'm a Muslim, so I will be honest, I'm a Muslim. So I consider my
dress, an act of worship, whatever I wear, I will ask myself, is this an act of worship? Is this
considered an act of worship? If not, I will change it to make sure that it is morally of a very
high standard. This is why I always say to my sisters, and my brothers who are Muslim, remember, you
are a Muslim? So your clothing is an act of worship?
		
00:07:47 --> 00:08:11
			Do you really feel when you wear your clothes that I am just engaging in an act of worship? If the
answer is no, you need to improve your dress. So I am a Muslim, so I will make sure whatever I wear,
I will consider it an act of worship for the sake of the Almighty. May Allah make me strong. May
Allah make me strong? Let's go further. I'm a Muslim. So I believe
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:53
			in all the angels amazing. I believe that the Almighty has angels. And I believe that these angels
have different tasks. Their number is not known by anyone besides Allah. And I believe that some of
them we are told about some will not some were given what their task was, and some were not. For
example, we have gibreel alayhis, salam, we have extra field, we have Nika l we have some of these
angels, they have different tasks. I believe that they are angels. And I believe these angels, they
do not disobey Allah La Jolla soon Allah.
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:08
			They do not disobey Allah in their in his instruction to them. And they do as they're told, and they
don't get tired. You said before.
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:59
			I have to. they declare the praise of Allah morning and evening and they don't ever stop. There is
no pause. They don't get tired. According to one of the verses. I'm a Muslim. So I believe in these
angels. I'm a Muslim, so I believe in all the previous messages, and I will respect them and honor
them and I won't allow a single word of blasphemy or a single word of a derogatory nature to be said
against any one of those messengers, to name a few. The Prophet Adam the first of mankind May peace
be upon him, Noah May peace be upon him. Abraham made peace be upon him Ishmael May peace be upon
him, Isaac May peace be upon him, Jesus May peace be upon him, Moses, may peace be upon him.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:34
			Iran May peace be upon him Solomon May peace be upon him David May peace be upon him not May peace
be upon him, job May peace be upon him, all of them notice, I'm a Muslim. So I will say May peace be
upon him when I say his name, because that is the honor and the dignity that I've been taught to
accord to those who were the most beautiful of the creation of the Almighty. I'm a Muslim. So I do
not believe that those prophets had bad habits, or they were low. I'm a Muslim. So I believe when
the almighty chose the prophets, he chose the best of all mankind to be the prophets.
		
00:10:36 --> 00:11:17
			So I will say May peace be upon them. In the same way I will not allow people to create something
derogatory, or to in the same way, it hurts me to see any derogatory remarks statement cartoon video
against Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam in that exact way. It hurts me to see the same about the Prophet
Jesus May peace be upon him, or Moses, may peace be upon him, or anyone, for that matter, may peace
be upon them all. And the Muslim so I believe in all these messengers of Allah subhanho wa Taala May
peace be upon them, and may peace be upon every one of us. I mean,
		
00:11:19 --> 00:12:05
			I'm a Muslim. So I believe in the books that will revealed to every one of these prophets, the
Psalms of David, the Old Testament, the Bible, the Torah, Subhan, Allah, The Talmud, I believe in
all these books, the original script of every one of these books, I believe that they are heavenly
books. I'm a Muslim. So I believe in the Koran, and I believe it is the final testament and the
Muslim. So I will ensure that I derive from the goodness of everything that the Almighty has sent
down. I'm a Muslim. So I believe in general, that Allah subhanho wa Taala has sent down all heavenly
books, and I'm a Muslim. So I believe if the original manuscripts are found today, they will be in
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:08
			conformity to what the Quran has.
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:34
			I'm a Muslim. So I believe in the last day, I believe in accountability. I believe that whatever I
do, I cannot get away with the bad and I believe I will be rewarded for the patients I have. I will
I believe because I'm a Muslim, that whatever whatever I do, I'm answerable to the Almighty. I also
believe he will forgive me because he is the most forgiving, the Most Merciful.
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:45
			While in the love of Lima Amano, Amina Saudi Hara
		
00:12:48 --> 00:13:17
			I'm a Muslim. So I believe Allah says, I am the most forgiving, I will continue to forgive those who
seek my forgiveness. So therefore, as a Muslim, I will never lose hope in Allah. I've committed sin.
But as a Muslim, I believe I need to admit my sim to my maker alone, and I need to regret and I need
to seek forgiveness and I need to promise him I won't do it again. When I do that, I'm a Muslim. So
I believe I'm totally forgiven.
		
00:13:18 --> 00:14:06
			I'm a Muslim. So I believe that my relationship with the Almighty is so beautiful, it is me It is my
maker. I will put my head on the ground only and solely for the one who made me and nobody else. I

00:16:04 --> 00:16:18
			If I don't, the Almighty will come back to me after giving me a period of time and punish me
severely, perhaps in this world, if not here, then in the hereafter. And at times, if I'm arrogant,
He will punish me in both.
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:20

access to the almighty like each other. I'm a Muslim. So I will not believe that I am above anyone
else. Because I'm a Muslim, I am taught that we are all the same. I'm a Muslim, so I will not be a
racist. I will never believe that there is a preference of color in the eyes of the Almighty. No, in
my eyes.

00:17:11 --> 00:17:19

the first place.

those who are sick and Ill across the globe, I'm a Muslim. So I will reach out to those who are
suffering across the globe as a result of warfare. That doesn't make sense, as a result of so much
of fighting and killing that we could actually stop.

			But unfortunately, the powers are not stopping it. But I will reach out to them through my prayer
through my money through my time, through my effort, and so many other ways, whatever I can, I'm a
Muslim, so I will not be judgmental, because I know the Almighty has kept a day to judge others.
That's what makes me a Muslim. Maliki a woman, the Owner of the Day of Judgment is Allah. He has set
aside a day to judge I'm a Muslim. So I know that if I
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:55
			were to judge others, I would be wrong because the Almighty is the ultimate judge, but I'm a Muslim,
so I will never ever turn away. Good advice would be excused of them being judgmental.
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			I'm a Muslim. So I appreciate advice.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:04
			I'm a Muslim, so I will give advice in the most polite way at dinner.
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:09
			I will be genuine towards others.

existence. I'm a Muslim. So I will make sure that the word of the Almighty the word of the maker is
part of my daily life, even if it be a verse a day. I'm a Muslim.

			Subhan Allah, I'm a Muslim. So when I see some lost property, I will pick it up and be honest, and
try and look for the owner. I'm a Muslim, so I won't steal, I won't drink, I will never touch
alcohol. Because I'm a Muslim, the brain that the Almighty has given me, I have to maintain it at
the
		
00:20:53 --> 00:21:03
			optimum level at the highest possible level. And I will never ever compromise that with any
intoxicant. I'm a Muslim, so I won't reduce my life to
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:16
			a cheap nightlife, with the lowest of morals filled with entertainment that happens to be low and
dirty. I'm a Muslim. So whatever fun I want, I will make sure it is clean.
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:24
			I'm a Muslim, so I won't gamble because that's prohibited by my maker. Gambling is not allowed. I'm
a Muslim.
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:33
			So I won't commit adultery, because that's prohibited by the Almighty. When I want to do things,
I'll do it the proper way.
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:39
			I'm a Muslim, so I will not watch that which is
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:47
			immoral, such as *. I'll stay away from it. And wherever we faulted, we asked the Almighty
is forgiveness.

			The future will be better than today, should I say?
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:27
			Meaning if we have difficulties and problems as a Muslim, we look forward to the solutions and we
are convinced the day will come when that matter will be resolved.
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:57
			I'm a Muslim, so I will be patience. If Allah has tested me with something. I'm a Muslim. So if
Allah takes away my loved ones, May Allah not do that to us, I will be a patient. And I will say in
La La, La La Jolla, we all belong to Allah, we're all going to return to Allah, because I'm a
Muslim. That's what I'm taught to do. I need to be patient. And I know if I'm patient upon the loss
of love, the loss of a loved one, I will be earning paradise. I'm a Muslim. So I hope that Allah
will grant me paradise.
		
00:23:00 --> 00:23:39
			I'm a Muslim. So I know that I have no certain knowledge as to the condition upon which a person
will die. Therefore, I will never do someone who happens to be sinful, nor will I look at myself as
higher because I don't know upon what condition I will die. And I don't know upon what condition
they will die, they might become even better than me within a short space of time. And who knows, we
may lose our faith, May that never happen to us. I'm a Muslim. So I will continue asking the
almighty to grant me happiness, to grant me goodness to grant me faith and conviction to take me
away in the condition that he's pleased with me. Because I'm a Muslim, I will not just rely on my
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:51
			powers, my brain my energy, because I know all those faculties were given by the Almighty, I'm a
Muslim. Everything I've achieved, I will relate it to the Almighty, not to me, not to my brain.
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:55
			I'm a Muslim. So the wealth I have, I will share it.
		
00:23:56 --> 00:23:57
			So Pamela,
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:00
			I'm a Muslim.
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:03
			Look at how beautiful Islam is.
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:10
			Every one of us can relate to everything I have said just now.
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:29
			I'm a Muslim, so I will visit the sick and ill and I will pray for them. SubhanAllah amazing, I'm a
Muslim, so I will help people to good and I will discourage them in a nice way from bad. I'm a
Muslim. So when I look at every single human being, I should be seeing some goodness Subhana Allah.
		
00:24:31 --> 00:24:50
			And if I don't see goodness, it's due to my weakness. And if I'm not able to benefit from someone, I
don't need to harm them. SubhanAllah I'm a Muslim. So if I am being harmed by someone, I'm allowed
to stay away from them, but I'm not allowed to harm them in return. I'm a Muslim.
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:52
			I'm a Muslim.
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:59
			So when I see someone who's been harming me, when I see someone who has been trying hard
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:09
			to hurt me, yes, I will defend myself in a respectful, respectable manner. But I will not do that
which displeases Allah
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:15
			and the Muslim, I need to love for my enemies.
		
00:25:17 --> 00:25:51
			What I love for myself, I need to want the goodness for them too. I'm a Muslim. So if I have
conveyed the message of Islam to the enemies of Islam in a way that they do not turn to Islam, but
they understand that Islam is a beautiful religion, I have achieved great success by the help of
Allah. Conversion reversion and turning faith doesn't belong to me, belongs to the Almighty, but the
trial is mine. I'm a Muslim, so I'll keep on trying. I am a Muslim. So I believe that through my
great good character and conduct, others will be inspired to be better people.
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:56
			If Allah grants me that, so May Allah grant me that, and every one of us
		
00:25:57 --> 00:26:11
			I'm a Muslim, and I firmly believe that my messenger May peace be upon him, Muhammad Sallallahu
wasallam taught me that the best from among you are those with the best character. So therefore, I
will spend my lifetime developing my character and conduct.
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:19
			I will spend a lifetime learning how to speak to people learning how to make people feel important.
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:36
			And I will seek forgiveness every single day from the Almighty, because my most beloved messenger
peace be upon him, used to seek forgiveness when he did not even need it, I need it. So I will see
even more. May Allah forgive me forgive every one of us.
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:42
			My brothers and sisters aren't too impressed by what Islam is all about.
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:49
			I'm a Muslim, so I will be the best to my wife. And I promise you go and try asking a question.
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:52
			How's this guy?
		
00:26:54 --> 00:27:04
			I will continue to work so hard that the answer will be he's the best possible guy. inshallah, that
be for me, and for all of us, say me.
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:19
			I'm a Muslim. So I will ensure that my children look up to me as a role model. I'm a Muslim, so I
will not want bad habits within me for my children to see and be depressed about how dad is and how
bad the dad is.
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:29
			noticing that the difference between bad and dad is just the flicking of the D and the B panela.
Don't be a bad dad. Be a good dad.
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:43
			I'm a Muslim. So I will be a role model for those who are younger as far as possible. Now, I want to
tell you, I'm a Muslim. What about those who are not? Well, if you want to enter the fold of Islam,
I can tell you something.
		
00:27:45 --> 00:28:18
			I've already mentioned the Pillars of Islam and the man. In fact, Eman includes also to believe that
good and bad faith comes from the almighty good and bad faith when something good happens I related
to the almighty I said that when something bad happens, I related to the Almighty He it was
destined, but I don't become depressed about it. I continue and I say look good and bad fate comes
from the Almighty, this deeper explanation to it. But my brothers and sisters, there is a last day
when we will be returning to Allah before we return to Him
		
00:28:19 --> 00:28:26
			in a manner that he is displeased with us. We can make him by the will of Allah by his own world, we
can make him
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:29
			pleased with us if we keep trying.
		
00:28:30 --> 00:29:14
			So if someone is not a Muslim, and they want to enter the fold of Islam, they need to declare just
the declaration, believe it in the heart and start learning and work towards it. What is it? I bear
witness that there is none worthy of worship besides Allah, that's what you need to say. And I bear
witness that Muhammad peace be upon him is the final messenger of Allah. That's what you need to
say. Those two sentences make you a Muslim, a shadow Allah ilaha illa Allah, I bear witness there is
none worthy of worship besides Allah, to Allah, Mohammed and Rasulullah. And I bear witness that
Muhammad peace be upon him is the Messenger of Allah, the final messenger of Allah. That's the crux,
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:37
			once you declare that you're a Muslim. If you believe it in your heart, you're a Muslim. When you
start working towards it, you're a Muslim Subhan Allah and all the goodness that we've mentioned,
should become yours. And the last thing I want to say before I close today, all of us seated here,
you heard me saying what Islam is all about, I want you to ask yourself,
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:39
			Am I really a Muslim?
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:58
			Am I really a Muslim? I just heard everything. Do I really fit into all of this if I don't? Well, I
need to inshallah make an effort to become a real Muslim. May Allah help us all to become beautiful
