Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
smilla rahmanir rahim al hamdu Lillah wa Salatu was Salam ala rasulillah Allah it was heavy here.
We praise Allah subhanho wa Taala we send blessings and salutations upon Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, his companions, his household We ask Allah to bless them to bless every one of us, to accept from us, the fasting that we've been engaging in and the standing in taraweeh that we've been engaging in. May Allah subhanho wa Taala accepted from us more than that. May Allah grant us the consciousness of the condition of our hearts. And may He helped us to develop the heart. May we become from among those who only utter the best of speech from our mouths For indeed that is a sign of how close you are to Allah or how far
so for those of us who are conscious of what comes out of our mouth, good news to you of gender, because gender is filled with those who say good words. Gender is filled with those who stop themselves from uttering bad language, vulgar language, abusive language and hurtful language. My brothers and sisters if you want to paradise you need to watch your mouth. May Allah subhanho wa Taala make us conscious of our mouth. As much as people think that you know you will only earn Jenna by reading the Quran by engaging in Salah by fasting in Ramadan and by giving charities to the poor. While we don't undermine the value of these great acts of worship, Islam is a balanced way of life.
It teaches us that when you do deeds, you should never ever compromise those good deeds by bad deeds that will result in the diminishing of the reward of those good deeds because they are given to someone else. A person you have hurt or harmed or slandered or back bitten about a person whom you have cheated or deceived. May Allah subhanho wa Taala forgive us. This evening we read verses of Surah Nisa. I was not meant to actually complete but the brothers suggested that if you are up to it, you may carry on so I decided let's continue. I hope I didn't bore the brothers and sisters but Allah subhanho wa Taala His Word is definitely never boring. It's just us sometimes the manner in
which we read and recite the manner in which we stand sometimes how much we've eaten at the time of if bar also determines how you feel during dinner, we must not be fooled. He who comes or she who comes having food, her or his belly, to the brim cannot expect to go up and down in an act of worship, where lots of energy is required. May Allah subhanho wa Taala bless us. I'm not discouraging you from the beautiful lifta but what I am telling you is let's come down a little bit will lie a tip that I will teach you today you can take it from me and teach others after you practice on it. The less you eat in the month of Ramadan, the healthier you feel, whether it is for
support or if Tom try it out.
I repeat that because you people are just looking at me as though I think you're making a mistake.
The less you eat for each bar and forced to hold the less you eat in the nights of Ramadan, the more healthy and energetic you shall feel and the less hungry you will feel through the day. May Allah subhanho wa Taala grant us Baraka suatu Nisa is a surah where Allah subhanho wa Taala specifically honors the women.
Amazing. There is no surah in the Quran, and I see this all the time. That is called surah to region. Right? The surah of the men. It's not there, right? So Han Allah.
One brother says it's a shame May Allah subhanho wa Taala Forgive us, that Allah grant us ease. My brothers and sisters remember, when Allah tells you or people be conscious of Allah at the beginning of Surah Nisa, he means it we need to be conscious of Allah, the word Taka, Taka people translated as the fear of Allah. People say the consciousness of Allah. It is actually the development of a holistic relationship with Allah. That is taqwa, the development of a holistic relationship with Allah. I would not be wrong if I were to say, yeah, I'm Latina. de la Oh, you who believe develop a holistic relationship with Allah as a translation of that.
May Allah grant that to us. Anything you do to gain closeness to Allah is a part of taqwa ly.
You are here in the house of Allah. It is because of the love of Allah, He brought you here, he put it in your heart to come, he made you want to come So you came, you are a guest of Allah.
So Allah is warning us right at the beginning, oh people, be conscious of your maker or become a Buddha is the one who is in control of your entire existence and your whole life, the sustenance the nourishing the cherishing the providing all of that in the hands of the one who is called a boon. So Allah says, I'm your up, be conscious of the one who created you, the one who is in control of your life.
He created you from one soul from it, the female and from the two of them, he caused a multitude of male and female to spread the earth.
Then he says again, what?
Be conscious of Allah or develop your relationship with Allah and be conscious of that Allah whose name you use when you want to take an oath.
When you want people to believe you, whose name do you use?
You cannot use anyone else's name besides Allah, I will tell you what law he my brother in law, he's my sister because I want you to believe me. I can't say anyone else's name.
I could say something related to Allah. For example, I can say what I've been kabah which means I swear by the Lord of the Kaaba, it still Allah Subhana Allah to Allah. So Allah is telling us and be conscious of the wounds. In other words, develop the correct relationship with the wounds that have given birth to you, the women, your sisters, your mothers, your daughters, whoever else your aunts and the rest of the women kind. Allah is warning us all. And one of the primary things he starts with in this blessing surah he tells us watch out about how you treat the orphans more so the females from amongst them.
When a lot loved
the most
of his love
was for him.
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, the most beloved unto Allah, no doubt we are meaning it is our faith and conviction.
But Allah chose for him to be an orphan.
Subhana Allah, it was a sign of the love of Allah. Brothers and sisters, when Allah gives you it's not a sign that he's happy with you. And when Allah takes away from you, it's not a sign that he's upset with you remember that?
So Allah subhanho wa Taala has decided to do that to Muhammad Sallallahu sallam, and in turn, Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam says, Anna, what cathinone at Mecca had a vision of myself and the one who takes care of an orphan shall be just like these two fingers in his shoulder with his first and second finger put together in gender. in Paradise, you look after an orphan.
The greatest of men are those who can take care of children who don't belong to them biologically, wow.
One of the deepest statements you will ever hear in terms of the social living that we have.
The greatest of men are those who can take care of sons and daughters of others,
be it that you married a widow, or a divorce, who had the children of another, and you happen to raise them with honor and dignity for you is Jenna.
So Panama, or be the children who may not have any parents at all, or even if they did have parents, to honor the children of others, Allah will honor yours.
You want your children to grow in order be concerned about the children of others as well. Watch what happens to us. The problem with us, we are selfish and worried about me and my little circle. That's the problem. When that happens, we don't realize that in order for that circle to be secure, we need those around the circle to be secure. If you haven't secured all of them, the contamination that's about to happen due to the external factors with your own children. Even if the internal environment within the home was superb, will actually fail.
Because no one took care of the whole community.
That's why my brothers and sisters this surah teaches us
community service, social service, are you ready to go out and look after the sick and the Ill be the related to you or not? Are you prepared to go and take care of the widows without seeking sexual favors in return? Are you ready to go and look after the widows and
Their children, the orphans, the males and the females solely and only for the pleasure of Allah. Where are those men? Where are those women? Subhana Allah, we are lacking. What hasn't Allah given us, I always say, if you go back many years, 10 years, 15 years, and you look at where you were 20 years ago, where your father was a generation back where you are today what law he, you are in a much better position than they are or worse or than you were.
You have more, you have a better life. Take a look at your roots, where they come from, go back to that village, go and check them, look at where you are.
That is the virtue of Allah. It is the mercy of Allah. But men, he just wants it for himself. Allah says reach out to others, we will reach out to you Subhana Allah. So the beginning point is that of orphans, orphans?
What
Allah says, watch out, give the do of the orphans, to the orphans, and do not exchange their good wealth with your bad who have often has a property, he has a house, you suddenly sold it and replaced it with something else far away. That's value is perhaps less or there is some other problem in it. And you say Don't worry, when you were young, your father left this for you. No, no, no, Allah is watching. Allah says in the verses we read tonight, who in this dunya you may be able to get away with your little argument, but on the Day of Judgment, you can never ever, ever win against Allah, you cannot present those arguments he knows that.
Allah knows.
So make amends. Allah says what your treat them well. Give them what is there is there due to them.
And Allah continues to make mention of a massive issue that is a crisis in the oma, my brothers and sisters, every one of us comes with sustenance from the heavens.
Allah has looked in how much money you're going to have. If you take a look. And you were to write in a book to calculate how much money you have spent in the last two years, you will be shocked how much Allah gave you.
How much money did you spend in the last five years in the last 10 years? You will be shocked it will go to a million. And you will wonder how did I get it? I wish I didn't use it and I had all of it now.
But you needed it to eat to drink for everything else you spent it. It was 1000 a month to a 2000 for example, every 1000 a week 52,000 Wow, can I have that in the year in those weeks, and sometimes it's 10,020. And you know, the more plush and lush you'd like to live the more the amount will become. May Allah subhanho wa Taala grant us the ability to calculate in these verses we heard tonight in Allaha Cana cliche in Hacienda. Indeed Allah is
the one who takes full account of everything, full accounts.
That verse was mentioned, regarding the greeting, Allah says we are watching. When someone greets you, how do you greet back? I'm just watching. I'll take the count of it.
That's what Allah says. If someone says Salaam Alaikum if you just walked away unless we watched it, we wrote it. You shall pay
Allah forgive us. Pay What? You pay the price. You didn't reply.
But you know this guy, I don't care who this guy. The fact that he greeted you, you greet back, it's over. If you didn't want to greet initially, it's your weakness. But you have the greeting you reply. You know why? The greeting in Islam is a it's not just a mere greeting. It's a prayer for you.
Someone prayed for you. May peace be upon you, whenever I'm told him, peace be upon you to Subhana Allah, what else?
What's the big deal? Subhana Allah, can you not respond? So Allah says we take account of even that much the good at what you did. So do you think Allah is not going to take an account of that which is bigger than that?
We all come with our own sustenance, but where we have more wealth, we have a bigger problem. Do you know what it is? The children are waiting for that to die because he has 50 million. Imagine he's holding 5 million of mine. He just needs to close his eyes.
It's a reality. That's how people are thinking today. Some people have arranged the death of their folks because they want the wealth. And that's why the Hadith says
Mr. Jana Shea, or it's an it's a law of Islam kubla our knee. Okay, Bobby harmony.
Albuquerque New lion, it's a Hadith, the murderer does not inherit from the one he murdered.
It's a hadith.
Whoever tries to make haste for something, they won't get it. That's what the Hadith says. That's what the law states in Islam
in order to protect us. Why are you so worried about earning from your father and your mother and your folks, you need to get up and do your own thing, please. When that comes, it's a bonus. It's my primary. It's a bonus. You may do something with it and hamdulillah but don't have your eyes fixated on it in that way. That you know what? That's my money. No.
I recall a person who went to his father and said, Give me my inheritance. Father says Can't you see I'm breathing? So how does it look like I'm dead? We Allah subhanho wa Taala forgive us.
Worse than all of that is when we cheat our sisters because we say daddy gave you when he was alive.
Wow. What are you worried about? The 5 million the 10 million the 20 million the whatever the figure is, you are not going to be able to use it. It's a test from Allah. What you don't understand. And what I fail to understand that times is there is more blessing in what is done correctly than the figures that are wrong.
You might think, oh, gosh, you know, I'll be able to get 20,000 a year, another 10,000 year, another 5000 day, if it is through deception. You watch what Allah does. You know, I want to teach you something about soccer. It's a little bit scary, but listen to this.
When you don't calculate that Zakat properly, and you don't give it properly, Allah takes it away from you by kukaku.
You hear that? Allah takes it away from you. So if someone's Zakah is 20,000 for example, and they don't want to give it and they will say that suddenly car crash and what happened you had to spend exactly 20 grand on the car crash. Why? A lot to show you that was my money, not yours. For every 100 we give you two and a half is mine before it even comes to you. It's mine. Give it to me. How when you came on earth you had zero when you leave you're going to have zero. I am telling you that I want this the taxman charges us more but we have to give why because we have
every little thing you got the right bank Why did I transfer my uncle another one loan another one repayment of loan What else?
We know because now they want to know but for Allah subhanho wa Taala we prepared to say no it's okay don't worry. Allah knows you know my money is tied. You know my jewelry is tight. You know my this is tight, tight what you will be tight just now. May Allah subhanahu wa taala Forgive us, opening up give the mouth, Allah will give you more.
Spend Oh son of Adam, and he shall be spent on you. It's the third time I'm saying this in Ramadan, because it's a month of giving. Work your cut out and give the benefit of the doubt and give it with a whole heart. Watch what happens the following year. When the poor people have gotten money through you allow us shower it on you because he knows they're going to get through you. That goes those poor people will make that men we know where his money goes. You know that big business two and a half percent shares belongs to us here. So they are making for that business. come easy.
But we don't look at it that way. You get the job. That is why according to some scholars, your Zakat is supposed to be delivered to the poor around where you are doing business because they watch they see they witness they check you go in and come out when they are in a better position because you are spending on them. You will be safe, secure, safeguarded, they pray for you there is a happy community because people know Mashallah the business is flourishing. We hope this uncle makes millions because we are getting a few 1000 from them.
Subhan Allah amazing. Give. So I was telling you when you don't give Allah says wait, wait, wait, that's my will take it away. Something burnt down. What happened? burnt down? How much money? Exactly go and check it out.
It got taken away. I will give it properly we take it from you.
It's like when the taxman comes down. We're gonna give you this example. Because this is language we understand. When the taxman only knocks the door.
The blood pressure by opening that door is such that you can already feel all those amounts you've been scooping come out. So Pamela, you're looking at swallowing
welcome, everything is in order.
But nothing happened yet. We are so worried. And you know, when the man comes you take more away from you, Allah telling you No way. We've asked for a negligible percentage negligible, take it out, Give it, give it to people be happy. See them become blessed. You know, there is something again that I would like to mention here, your children, some people are so miserly, they have so much of wealth. They don't even want to spend on their own spouse and their children and brothers and sisters, you are a millionaire and your brother is suffering are over Billa the Quran tells you take care of your family members and you haven't Why?
My wife? She told me no, I can't give to my room.
Not my brother, no, no, the tantrum she will make my brother. What relationship do you have? That man has a weak relationship with Allah. When you are not conscious of Allah, you become conscious of everything besides Allah. You build a beautiful relationship with Allah, you will find even in your family, things will come in order by the will of Allah. May He grant us the order? How can you be frightened? your brothers, your sisters, even your in laws, take care of them what's wrong, if Allah bless you let them feel that there's nothing wrong. Because you are only going to get a reward for what you spent while you were alive.
I always laugh at people who say, You know when I die, I want my son to make a borehole for me and build a machine for me. Why do I laugh at him? But you're alive do it now. That's the thing.
Every one of us waits to read Quran for another dead person. I'm not talking of the ruling and the argument of whether it's allowed or not. That's on its own. I'm talking about what's happening, right.
So who's reading Quran for themselves? Thank you.
To get the point. Paid for yourself myself, I needed Come on. When I read it, my folks are already going to get the reward whoever helped me in any way. When I make dua for my family members, my parents, they will get that reward. So
the point I'm raising is while you're alive, do things do a little bit give a bit of charity, people are struggling across the globe.
But to start with, don't have cheated someone.
You're not going to go far.
You won't go far.
Especially the women folk learn to look after them learn to give them today. Take a look at how people look at Islam, and how people look at the way Islam treats women. Unfortunately, they are judging based on what we do and not based on what we're supposed to be doing.
We have taken the rights away from women because of cultural shackles rather than Islamic injunctions.
We don't allow them things based on cultural shackles. And I'm not joking with you. I'm honest. It is a fact. We are guilty.
So Allah subhanho wa Taala warns us about the issues of inheritance. These verses are the most serious verses in the whole world. There is no way in the Quran that Allah subhanho wa Taala says that the person who doesn't do what I tell them in as a Muslim, you claim to be a Muslim, and you haven't sorted your wills out according to what I have said. Allah says, For such a person.
There is Hellfire
for how long the term use this child didn't see her.
In literal Arabic It means
there forever.
But the hola say there for a long time. It's like when someone is not coming out of some way. How long have they been? They've been in there forever, which means for a very long time, right?
Now Allah forgive us. Don't ever don't ever compromise your whole your whole paradise because of a few dollars and rands it's not worth it. Let it go. Allah will give you here and he'll give you later as well. Don't cheat someone don't even deceive them. Let it happen. So what how much are you going to amass
well, ah here we are sitting very happy. We are breathing. We are calm. That alone is a gift that less than 50% on Earth.
Do you know that there are wars they are sicknesses, they are diseases they are natural disasters all across the globe. Go and check the people die in floods right while we are speaking now. There are people who don't know where they're going to sleep tonight. And here we are setting five star center. Mashallah center. When people hear sentence like whoa it's already 1000 brands, more
Allah forgive us.
That's why I was telling brother is my doctor here a while ago. He was telling me you must see the plans of how this Masjid shall be. I said I'm waiting to see center.
Allah subhanho wa Taala is I'm really waiting.
We want to see you have competition there is metronome on one side. And there is the other muskie down the road in Houghton the other side. Let's see what Santa does.
We're not competing to beautify we are competing to fill the masjid in sha Allah say, I mean,
I'm very happy to have been here this evening, you know?
And really, I enjoyed myself, simply because the Brotherhood is always something I look forward to. It makes me happy I entered the masjid I see so many faces I know. And those I don't know what brought brought smiles and the best of smiles are those with a few teeth missing? It looks so good. So panela you wonder where those gold teeth that disappeared? Are they normal?
But my brothers and sisters lovely. The verses of Allah always remind us to be better people to develop relationship with Allah, watch how you treat your women treat them well. Don't hold them back in a way that you are punishing penalizing them when you know the marriage is broken beyond repair. Let them go Subhan Allah, Allah is telling you that people are saying how if you try and you try it again, and really the marriage is toxic? Haven't you heard men say, I won't issue this balance. I'm gonna fix it. I'll show you. And someone says she can apply to the gym. He had to get a nullification Can
you really think so? I'll show you. It's a man's world. That's what we say you're wrong. It's a last word.
You might hold back something. Watch how Allah does a comeback. Watch how Allah doesn't come back in another aspect of your life. And you will know. That is why
when something goes wrong in your life, at that juncture, people will come to you and say, Don't worry, it's a test. Don't worry, it's okay. Don't worry. Allah is just testing you. I want to tell you now now, because now right now, there is no like, major problem that I know of right now here.
They are lying to you.
That answer is correct. As a secondary level, primary level when something goes wrong. Ask yourself have I wronged someone? That's the first question. What am I doing? What's the beans I'm in? Do I have a relationship with Allah? No. Well, then I pay him for it. That's what it is. Did I wronged someone perhaps, you know, I know of someone whose life went upside down recently.
I happen to sit with him and tell him No, it's a test. He says listen, I heard one of your talks, you said first we must look at who we robbed. He says, you know, like 30 years ago, there was a guy who I really had asked and he told me one day Allah will show you. He says, I have it in my heart that today is the day. How many years 303 decades later. That's why I say be careful. Don't harm people, what are you gaining by it?
It will come back to haunt you.
Even your own family members, your spouse is the blessed child of someone else. They may or may not be there at the moment to defend him or her. But you treat each other with respect with honor with the dignity for the rights of others. That's what Islam teaches you. You lead a better quality of life and you're going to Jenna, what's the point of wanting every rose in the bush when you only need one?
Check. Some people understood what I just said.
Look after your rows alone will make it a whole rosebush on its own. But no, you have the roses in your hand and you're you just say I twist the other roses.
Hang on. be focused on what you have, and will open your doors.
May Allah grant us happiness. You have children, those who don't ask them. May Allah bless them with children. Focus on them. They need you today The world is suffering primarily because we as parents don't spend enough time with our own children. They are orphans with both parents. How's that? orphans but they have both parents parents are never there.
So Panama.
This is why Allah tells us Salatu Nisa is very beautiful, very broad. It has a lot of topics in it. But I've just only spoken from the beginning. I thought I'd keep it light. We don't want to get too heavy. You know.
It's Ramadan. I told myself I speak for 30 minutes, guess what? The two minutes are up. So how Allah, Allah subhanho wa Taala grant us ease.
It's a pity tomorrow is not a holiday, is it? Not a holiday. It's Juma. So inshallah we'll wrap up a little bit.
Charlie in a few moments, but my brothers and sisters spend the moment with the Quran. Learn to Read read with a passion correct your recitation, you get the reward for every letter you read even without understanding it, but you get an equal reward for trying to understand it. Remember, the Quran doesn't have only one right of recitation. It has an equal right of trying to understand it. Many of us have made a mistake. We only have one I might be able to recite very melodiously What does it mean? Don't know. Don't know. So rotten Fatiha make an effort to learn what it means. You will enjoy it when when you read it. You just love it.
Cara Budo Cara Stein. Wow. So Pamela, you really believe you alone, we worship you alone, we seek the help from Wow, you loved it, because you knew its meaning. But with us many times, we just say hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa sallahu. Maybe it's a correct recitation, but you never ever thought of it. That's why you don't get the contentment and the calmness that the Quran delivers to the one upon this over its verses, and you get the calmness.
So my brothers and sisters, when we have our studies at the universities and at schools, how many books do we study?
hundreds, right? How big are those books? Books, right? hundreds of them, and we learn them and we SWAT. It's not only sweating, but sweating as well. Right? And Allah tells you your whole life. You see these books that you are studying, they're going to give you a job for a few years, maybe if you're lucky, I promise you nowadays, I know of people who studied getting degrees in university, they graduate and go into a totally different field because there was no job in the field that they wanted, right? The brothers Yeah, whispering at each other because they know people like that, right? When you say me, Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, grant us goodness, but they're earning.
Allah says, For this world, and for a few years, 40 years of your life, less than two years of your life. You were prepared to study big, big books and you knew them off by heart, or you you studied them and you knew them fairly, because you wanted a bit of a comfortable life for 40 years. And you are not prepared to study the Word of Allah is just one book that is going to take you into genital DOS, everlasting bliss. Come on, what type of a comparison is that? one book, Allah says, just study this. It's been 30 years, I still haven't studied it. If that other book happened to be introducing my life last week, and the exam was this week, I wouldn't sleep.
But the Quran, I'm sleeping every day snoring Get up. I don't even read Salah or maybe I do. But I'm not interested in what the word of Allah says. So I don't participate in the lectures in the masjid, or the lessons or the Tafseer or the Hadith. I've got no relationship with any of the scholars and Allah I've got nothing to prove and to go to with a loss or to go with to Allah subhanho wa Taala
let's prepare for the day we meet with Allah Ramadan is a beautiful man. It's a month of recollection. Now that I might have sounded a little bit hard. Let me give you the good the good side to it.
In Islam, you are rewarded by your intention.
That's so brilliant. I intend the day that I get 50 million to give away 2 million inshallah, my intention. Allah says if you are genuine,
without the money
that start intending my brothers and sisters. May Allah subhanho wa Taala bless us with that. I gave you one example that everyone would intend But there is another example. Start intending I'm going to read a verse every day wonders how many verses with the meaning? The meaning? one verse with the meaning every day? How many?
one verse with the meaning how long will it take a minute or two? one verse with the meaning.
Today I received a message from someone who said and this is why it prompted me to say this. It said many years ago, you said one verse a day, I started it. It's been four or five years. And I've actually I now read five pages a day.
Wow. Some of you might have seen that message. It's open. It's online, one of the platforms.
So I thought let me say that again. today. It works. one verse with its meaning every day. The Quran will suck you in while you are developing, developing a relationship with the word of Allah. There will come a time when law when it will develop a relationship with you.
And then there's something shocking that will happen to you. You want to hear it
in
our in
vivo on one
And the law says we are the ones who revealed this Koran, we will protect it. Have you heard that verse before?
Now let's look at the other side of that verse.
If you make an effort to learn the poor and the poor and we'll protect you.
So rather than saying, Allah protects the Quran, the Quran is in my heart so Allah has to protect me.
You find what I'm saying?
So if you want to be protected by Allah, the best thing you could ever do is start learning the Quran. Allah says you have to have God's God's angels walking with you wherever you're going, you're a happy man. Why? Imagine if you have a diamond with so many million and you're walking with it, they would be 2030 guards with guns all around you walking with you, right? So behind Allah, the Quran is far more valuable than that Allah says, we will place angels around you we promised we're going to protect this book and you have it in your heart, hence, we have to protect you.
That is the reverse of it. That's why I say the intention you may go alive starting one verse, the idea is I will finish inshallah, if you die without finishing it, you will have a reward of having completed it because Allah doesn't mind whether you finished it or not, in normal karma to be me yet.
Allah says we will judge all the actions based on the underlying intention. What was your intention? Have some good intentions? Alhamdulillah. And let's not be like those home when someone says do we make an intention? Brothers, the older brother say yes. And then when it comes time to do what they intended, then they all back off and they're gone. Where are they brothers? They all disappeared. May Allah bless you, man like Candace is May Allah subhanho wa Taala open our doors and May Allah subhanho wa Taala help us
to protect each other, to protect our family members to be kind to our wives, our children, our sisters, our brothers, our in laws, whoever they are. Imagine when if a day were to come when you mentioned in laws and people think of the best possible thing. Today there is a stigma right? When you want to give a bad example you just got to say my mother in law.

well I have to say that by the way.
Allah subhanho wa Taala bless every one of us barakallahu li grantors goodness in this dunya
I know I might have worded it a little bit with a little bit of you know, lightness in what I've said but the message deep down is very heavy. Please take it my brothers and sisters and please do something about it. It will help us all myself to begin with. And then all of you are good only had our sallallahu wasallam albaraka
