Do you know when you turn to Islam when you become practicing? Or when you've just said your shahada, you will face many challenges. It happened from the time of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the earliest of those who accepted the message they faced persecution in Makkah, so much in terms of persecution that they were shaken, and they called out to

00:01:08--> 00:01:39

Nari, marry him. Allah is promising them Paradise because they were the first to turn to Islam. They were the ones who came in right at the beginning. Allah is telling them you know what, they are the close ones for them. They will be paradise they will receive and achieve more than they would ever have imagined.

You need to learn to be a proud Muslim, not pride, that is that comes with arrogance, and haughtiness and belittlement of others and rejection of the truth. But rather the pride as in happiness. I'm happy to be a Muslim. I'm a happy Muslim, and I'm proud of my identity. Here is my beard. Here is my cloak. And that's why I started the way I did, because while arguing about what should go before the other, you might just lose the entire sister.
