			How y'all doing?
		

			You look as I feel
		

			and handle has been a bit of a tough week. I can Allah subhanaw taala accept from us the the effort
in this funnel of this does not go unnoticed. And Alicia, could you appreciate the little that we
do? And what soprano data is most generous when He rewards him Allah put Baraka in our life after
I'm along, because of this effort that we are doing for his sake, and for his purpose only for you,
we are a lot. Well, hamdulillah we continue with our series on the heroes of Islam, and we discussed
four of them already. And what Hamdulillah, the hero that we would like to speak about tonight,
		

			lived in the golden age of Islam. He lived in a time when Islamic borders spread from France, and
Morocco, and the Atlantic Ocean, to send in India, to China in the east and to Russia in the north.
This point in time, the Muslim Empire was the largest and most powerful empire in the world. And
under the Caliph at the time, Khalifa lead the first he had a combination why this empire so strong
is that he was fortunate that Allah had blessed him with a number of excellent generals, some of the
best generals in the history of mankind were present in his time, and he was able to win Battle of
the battle on different fronts in the east and the west. Today we're talking about the man who
		

			conquered the Western Front for Islam, the man who brought Islam to the edge of the known world at
that time. At that time, there was we didn't know about in America and the world basically stopped
at Morocco. And he brought Islam to the edge of the world. We of course talking about the great
governor and military genius, Musa even Jose Rahim Allah.
		

			He was born 19 of the era in Medina. And it's mentioned that his father was at birth, his father
became Muslim, and he was a slave and he was freed and he became a Muslim, and our doula and the
killer. At that time, he wasn't the halifa but rather he was the governor of Satan. Normally, they
normally put him in charge of Syria. Now he wrote the law and found this man to be trustworthy,
honorable, and he was a good Muslim. So you said Evert, and he was a good pious Muslim, and he was a
strong man. Somehow, we selected him to be his personal bodyguard. And in charge of Marbella,
Dylan's entourage. So this man spent most of his life at the side of Mongolia. So again, mooses
		

			father was the bodyguard of Mao via the governor of Syria. And before he got to see the workings of
the government, he got to be intimate with the ruling class of the time. And Musa Alon, he was
called initial, so you spent most of his childhood in Medina, and he learned and he learned from the
Sahaba. So his childhood days was spent in the company of Sahaba. He was born 19 of the hlr, which
means he so satana the time of say, North man, and saying that he, he saw many of the great Sahaba
and it and he's a Tabby as well. So therefore his formative years, his childhood years, was spent
learning from the Sahaba. And as a teenager, his father called him to join him in Cydia, and to be
		

			in the court of mowing of the lawn. And we know more about the law. And as a governor, he was highly
successful. It was a nice time that city and Palestine and even Cyprus, the first naval battle, the
first naval fleet was constructed out of the land, and the Muslims began the campaign in the
Mediterranean. Somalia was a great administrator. And, of course, naturally with Moosa, this young
teenage boy, being around the government in the seat of power he learned from our other lawn. And
		

			to show you though, the honor and the caliber of moose his father was as follows just a buddy God,
he didn't do any great things. But when he saw that there was tension off the Satan of man, and
we're going a bit off topic here, but when saved enough man that it allowed me know when he was
assassinated, there was tension between Satan alien malware, and there was sort of a civil war
between Armenia and say, nalli as to who should rule the Muslims, and Muslims father said, I don't
want to be part of any of this. He's the chief bodyguard of Maui, and he says, and he loved my area,
he protected him with his life. He said, I will die for you, but I don't want to be part of Muslims
		

			fighting Muslims and this man was a revert. So he said, I'd like to pull out and rather go to
Medina. So Moosa and his father went back to Medina, and they spent many years in Medina. And it so
happened that Maui was successful and he became the halifa for 20 years, but you sort of cut your
bridges with the halifa. When you walked out to him, you don't go back now and say, Can I get my job
back? So Moosa stayed now in Medina.
		

			And then he befriended remember he's still quite close friends with the elite family malware the
roommates and the family would rule and dominate they would win out in the battle against a Nally
and elevate, and whether we like it or not. This is the facts of history. The immediate family
eventually succeeds. And Musa still had an intimate relationship with roommates living in Medina,
and the roommates family living in Medina will not like the roommates who lived in Syria, they still
had the piety with him. And he befriended a man by the name of Abdul Aziz and I noticed a lot of
names were getting lost in the names, but he was close friends with a man by the name of Abdul Aziz,
		

			even more one now we poziom we poziom Abdul Aziz even Marwan Marwan becomes the halifa which means
Abdullah is his father is the halifa. Right Abdullah is his father was the halifa after many years
after Maria, and but he wasn't the eldest son of Marwan mattawan had an older brother, very, very
famous, very, very capable, older brother called Abdul Malik, Abdul Malik, even Marwan if you can
remain remember this name, Abdul Malik, even Marwan basically fixes the problems after the Civil
War. And he would have four sons, all of them polyphemus and his daughter would be married to the
halifa. So Abdul Malik is called the father of kings. Right after Malik Abdulaziz, his younger
		

			brother, and Abdul Malik would rule for a long time and his sons would rule. And it would be in the
time in the, in the sons of the Malik that Islam would spread to Spain and China and sit in Egypt. I
mean, it's and and in Russia. So this was the Golden Age, when the Malik and his sons ruled
		

			was his father, his friends, not with Abdul Malik, but rather with Abdul Aziz, his younger brother.
And whenever the money became the halifa, Abdul Aziz who was not like as rough and was not the same
kind of people, like the other side of his family was most sincere and pious. He was placed as
governor of Egypt. So he's his big brother, he's Buddha is the halifa. He put his little brother in
charge of Egypt, you be the governor of Egypt. And naturally, Abdul Aziz said I'd like to have an
advisor and I'll take my childhood friend Moosa with me. Now, for a spot price. I'm going to ask you
an easy question. And then a very difficult question. Or maybe I should start with the difficult
		

			question
		

			of itself, the difficult one, Abdulaziz, we said, He's the brother of Abdul Malik, who was the
halifa at the time, Abdul Aziz would have a pious amazing son, he we will talk about him inshallah,
on Tuesday, and on Wednesday, one days I'm going to be enough. And he's regarded as the fifth
Caliph, the fifth rightly guided halifa. Who are we talking about? Omar bin Abdulaziz Omar bin
Abdulaziz. So, remember this name, Abdul Aziz, the governor of Egypt. He had he was a pious man
himself, Abdul Aziz, but he had a super pious son, who became the halifa and fixed the Umayyad
Caliphate. So, let's correct now for the easy one. I don't think I can give with a mercy the Buddha
		

			treats spot price. Right? I have to ask the easy one
		

			of the disease becomes the government of Egypt and Egypt fell within the Islamic control in the time
of say now we're very early on. We are now well, we are 6575 years after that Woody, who brought
Islam to Egypt. The oldest message on the African continent base His name is Sahabi.
		

			Which Sahabi broth. He was the general and he brought Islam here. And the most she told today the
Moses in Egypt is named after him magic.
		

			Magic Man.
		

			Sounds like Omar.
		

			Close to Omar.
		

			This was the easy one actually.
		

			With a Mama.
		

			Mama last among us, right this great Sahabi he came and he was the leader and he brought Islam to
Africa to Egypt. And in the time of saying that, oh, my goodness, man, the African continent slowly
and more and more fell to each North Africa fell to Islam. But the Muslims were never able to fully
control North Africa. I don't know if you know, our Libyan brothers are here he left already. This
is the history that for much many decades of the decades, the people of North Africa, they rebelled
against Muslim control. The Berbers of North Africa, they were a problematic people. And Islam
couldn't take root of them. They couldn't they weren't subjects that were obedient. So the
		

			government has came and they would rule them by force and they would have to conquer them and re
conquer them over and over and this wasn't working. So when they place Abdul Aziz in Egypt of the
lousiest bring Musa when you say my good close, ally and friend, I want him to come here and he said
Musa, I want you to fix this problem.
		

			So you go to in the middle of in the middle of carillon, which was in Tunisia, you go there, and you
need to sort out this problem. So he's appointed the governor of West Africa, Northwest Africa. And
they he begins his career. Now from the son of a slave. He becomes governor of North Africa. And
this is like the Wild West, North Africa. There is no real government there. The Muslims are unable
to control them. The Berbers internally, are still fighting and overpowering them. So he needs to
fix things. And he get it within seven years. He pulls this region, right by the grace of Allah. But
he did so differently to the ways of the previous governance. First, he used these armies, and he
		

			enforced the law. But once things were at peace, he treated the Berber people with justice with
mercy. And he said, I don't he told the halifa I don't need any more soldiers bring me I want
scholars to come to teach about Islam. And he said I want to show them Islam with my example. He
didn't see this area as a region to take the money and send it to Damascus and overpower them.
Instead, he treats them equally. And within those seven years, much of the Berber tribes embraced
Islam. And not only that, he gave those people positions in his government and his army from being
an Arab Army colonizing North Africa. His army became a Berber army, a Muslim Berber army, and the
		

			hero will speak about tomorrow. He's most successful General mooses most successful general was a
Berber, the man who took Islam to Spain. The general took Islam to Spain till today. A region is
named after him. What's his name?
		

			Tarik, even Ziad Jabara parekh the mountain of Tarik, this Berber slave became a Muslim and he
became musas Bass general. So Mousavi Alon Rahim Allah, he's able to incorporate the Berber people
into Islam. And he did something which no other Gen before him did. He was able to take Islam and
bring Morocco. Muslims never captured Morocco was too difficult to get to Morocco. They now included
Morocco in the Muslim Empire, up until the point of the Atlantic Ocean, he said we can't go anymore,
go to the halifa and said, I've come to the end of the world. There's nothing left for me to
conquer.
		

			The next stage of the of the conquest was at the Romans who still control the Mediterranean. So what
about geography? Now, the Romans as we know, control the Mediterranean. And they would say now we
can see that Italy, obviously under the Roman Empire, that Sicily, the island of Sicily and to the
south, you see Tunisia, that's where the capital of Moses Moses capital, Kieron was basically, and
from the conquered Algeria and Morocco to the west, but the Romans would send the fleet and
continuously harass and attack the Muslim, Muslim North Africa. So musasa we do something and these
are decent people. He said, I we learned from when we were in Cydia, how to build ships. And he
		

			started a Navy, a North African Navy, just to keep the Romans in check. But Allah subhanaw taala
granted him success even on the sea, and he was able to conquer Sicily, and the Balearic Islands,
the islands around Spain. So he became excited to control the Mediterranean Sea. And as we said, he
went to the edge of the world. And he had this famous line, after he had stopped the uprisings in
North Africa, and the people entered into Islam, and he lowered the taxes and he treated them
correctly. And even those who didn't want to embrace Islam, the people who still wanted to worship
idols, and the Christians that love thee, he allowed them to practice the religion freely. So much
		

			so that people from Europe did the opposite of today. They lift Europe to North Africa, they
smuggled themselves to North Africa, to live under this man Moosa, even Hussein even heard about
this fate and just governor and this beautiful line that he said, and he rode his horse in the
Atlantic Ocean. And he said this, if it had not been for me, and my horse drowning, out of taking
Islam to even the end of the earth, I'd have gone further than this, I would have gone further than
this. But there was a place beyond the ocean, there was a land across the sea. What land is that?
He's now in Morocco. And when? Yes, and when you're in Morocco, and the seas and you're at the edge
		

			of Morocco, and the weather is really good, and the sea is calm, and you look across, you'll see
Spain, you will see Spain, and he heard about the conditions of the people of Spain, and the people
of Spain, the Jews in particular, Jews love Islamic rule. The Jews were persecuted so badly under
the Catholic Church, that many of them came to North Africa. today. There are Jews in Morocco that
came from Europe, and the people of Spain and some of the governance even the
		

			Mussa. Since you have a fleet, and you're successful in the Mediterranean, don't you want to come to
Spain and see what you can do? So the time was right for Moosa to do something which no one before
him did to arrange an army and send it into Europe, into Spain. And we know that from that decision
that he made 750 years later, Spain was a Muslim was still interested for seven centuries, almost
eight centuries, Spain was one of the greatest Muslim states on earth. And he sent his best general
this man we say, Tarik, even Ziad, he's number one Berber General, he sent him across the sea. And
so you take the army to this new world, and you fail and you bring the word of the heat there, and
		

			inshallah Allah will grant you success. And this would be the first stone in this beautiful building
that would be under this magnificent palace of Al Andalus. for 700 years, Muslim Spain would be the
most advanced country in Europe. It began when Musa sent his army across that small streets, and
it's an easy day to remember 711 that's when it happened. The year was 711 when he sent that army
over the sea, we'll talk about that tomorrow, the evening Allah insha Allah will talk about our next
hero tomorrow. Tarik, even Ziad
		

			inshallah continue with our quiz. So yesterday I was told I was in Yeah, and I was told I was very
bad I gave a stinking quiz was a really easy one. So inshallah we'll go through the questions, the
answers, this should be easy to follow. We don't know this will be problems. What is the declaration
of faith? What is the kalama really mean? And we said that the kalama is that there is none worthy
of worship except Allah. It does not mean that there is no God but Allah, no creator, but Allah. The
difference is we said that as Muslims, we believe, like all the people, Jews, Christians, Hindus,
they all believe in one creator. But we say we only worship that one creator. That's our difference.
		

			None has the right to be worshipped except Allah and Muhammad wa sallam is missing just as easy one,
which of these statements are true? Allah subhanaw taala. Of course, he created the heavens and the
earth in how many days?
		

			Six days? Not a week, six days? a lucky if you see 30 am in six days through must Allah Allah. And
then he rose up over the arch with the kursi. What's the difference between Alison kursi?
		

			Yes, in need of of Chase, and Nita footstools, but a lot out of His Majesty, and he's a mite, he has
a throne, the ash, and he has a little ornament next to the arch the Odyssey. And we say what's he
had called? Susannah, what this could see is bigger than the universe and everything the heavens and
the earth, the Squillaci is bigger than that. And the arch is way, way bigger than the Odyssey. So a
lot of those above these things of the six days of creating the heavens and the earth. Then the last
question, beautiful Hadith, Hadith says only four things are located by hand. Allah does not need to
use his hands for anything he just says. And it is but when Allah create something with his hands in
		

			a way which be footsies majesty, Allah hands or something, not like our hands, he does so to under
that condition, and only four things were created by Allah's hands. What are those four things?
		

			The arsh
		

			the pain,
		

			the highest general and the most, the best of gentleness, Allah created that with these hands, a lot
personally interior decorator the agenda, something worth seeing, we will get there one day, and an
honor to us our father Adam, Allah created him with his hand he molded the clay himself, Allah
subhanaw taala. So we said which of these things were not created by us and who seldom was not
created by us. And neither was the courtesy nor was diberi. Nor was God they were created, like
other things, couldn't fire Kuhn. So tonight's quiz, you have your cards,
		

			you have your cards in sha Allah, you should know these things, and then we will ask the questions.
