Mufti Menk – What did you say

			If you and I are not going to be bothered about how we say things in what we say, and we're not
going to be conscious of the words that come out of our mouths, and
		

			how could we be different from anyone else in terms of being believers? Let's try and make an
effort. This my van will be Ramadan with a difference. They are a few days remaining. And even if we
were to listen to this after Ramadan, still, we should develop ourselves now because we don't know
if we're going to witness another mother.
		

			What is it that requires development? While I tell you, number one, we need to ask ourselves
regarding our connection with the Quran, regarding learning the meanings of the words of the Quran,
regarding learning about the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, we need to respond to
those who are coming up with things against Islam against the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him
that are not true or taken out of context or fabricated completely. Many people don't know because
they haven't taken the time through the years to study, to look into. And to check. I've had people
who tell me, Well, you know, I'm doubting this element, there was no need to doubt it if you had
		

			knowledge, because doubts are only created with ignorance with knowledge, you won't doubt. So
therefore, have you made an effort to learn? Have you joined an online class? Have you tried, be it
online or even if it is in person, have you made an effort to do something of that nature? If not,
here is the time. Similarly, the other car take a moment to repeat words of praise of your Lord.
Subhan Allah hammering, now in Allah Allahu Akbar, these are words of praise of Allah Almighty.
Glory be to You praise be to You, You are the greatest, there is no mic, no power, except that of
yours. And so on. Lovely words, read, learn to repeat them, they will help polish you. They will
		

			make you conscious of what you say. Become a person who says lovely words, beautiful, empowering
words to others. As you meet someone, you smile, you greet them, and so on. This is the teaching of
Islam. Like I said, Islam teaches us to worship Allah alone. And then it tells us to develop
ourselves in a way that we fulfill the rights of others. One of them is for me
		

			to develop and improve my character I conduct and to become a person who's much better than I was
