			hamdulillah when we were always a challenge, the toughest part of a Joomla cookbook is deciding what
to talk about. That's why I like to do things in series. Then I'm booked for a few months and
naturally the topic of discussion is the Coronavirus. And maybe to some of you it's over. You've
heard enough of it. Some of you want to hear more about it. And I don't know too so so much of the
Coronavirus happening. I don't know if you even realize that today's Friday the 13th and what that
is a lot of superstition and Subhanallah it's amazing when you when thoughts are going through your
mind and then you hear a hadith Hadith which you've heard before, but it's perfect for this time, as
		

			if though than a visa Salam is speaking to that time. Exactly. And today Insha Allah, I'm going to
link these two topics, superstition, fear, paranoia with what's happening with a Coronavirus advice
to that and guidance from an Elisa Salem. Ultimately, the message today is about Tawakkol. The
message today is we are vulnerable. We are weak. And the only way that we survive is to take the
precautions Allah has guided shown us to do and then to put our faith and trust in Him. And the day
will come we all the precautions we take will not be enough because it through the decree of Allah.
And so the Hadith and obeso Salam says and and this is we this hadith I've heard it before.
		

			Sometimes it was accompanied, it's difficult to understand fully. But now in the light of what's
happening in the world. It makes sense that it means also lamb was talking to the Sahaba are talking
to his community. And remember they came from Janelia they came from a period of ignorance. When you
don't have science, you don't have guidance. You are paralyzed with superstition, and old wives
tales and weird beliefs. And this was what it was like in Arabia. And so the abyssal Salam part of
bringing about the heat the oneness in Allah, the fear and love for Allah was to remove these these
Bakerloo fees, as we call them. Yeah, they could be side
		

			side beliefs or old lifestyles, things that have no basis in religion or basis in science. So
there'll be some says there is no adware. Adware was understood to be disease that could be
contagious. So this hadith is a bit weird. Allah says there's no such thing as contagious diseases,
if you read it, literally. And there is no such thing as bad omens in birds. So the Arabs, they
would see a type of bird that go outside and they see oh, this blue bird has this means it's going
to be a calamity. Let me lock myself up in the house. No business today, that bird is a bad omen.
There is no such thing like that. And
		

			they is and so there's no such thing as bad omens, but that becomes his eye like he acknowledges and
he allows good omens, good omens. Sahaba said What do you mean by good omens? And he said, a good
word something which makes you feel positive. That's okay. So like sometimes you feel today is going
to be a good day. I'm going to take this as a positive sign. That's okay. But you're not allowed to
take something as a negative sign without any without any reason. Another Hadith more you know,
gives you more embody than abuses I'm against says there is no such thing as Adwa contagious
diseases that transmit through infections, you know, no tiara, no omens be believes in types of
		

			birds. No Hama. Hama is also a type of superstition with birds. It's a type of bird that made the
type of sound and they believe the Arabs believe when this bird which makes this funny sound lands
on your roof, it is the bones of some relative that died a violent death that is being brought into
this bird and by sitting on needs making, you know, some kind of message or some bad omen is what
they believed. So there is no such thing as harm. And
		

			there is no such thing as suffer. Suffer the month of suffer Muharram suffer. It was a belief that
suffered was a bad luck month And subhanAllah even today, even in this day and age, you find people
saying, Sheikh we can't have the Nikka this month because it's suffered and it's a bad month. This
		

			is the height of Janelia we don't believe in stores and, and you know, astrology and these things,
the shape the movement of the planets have no bearing on the dunya and so this is the been the
people of Jamelia believed the month of suffer was was something bad and unlucky. And so there
really is no such thing as as suffer. So
		

			these beliefs, they contradict, they're not just bad for us because they have they paralyze you,
they make you skate. What they also do is that it is a direct contradiction with our concept of
Tawheed that ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada requires of us to put our faith in Him and trust in him that we
should do and believe and follow what he advises us to do, and then be satisfied and contented that
Allah subhanaw taala it's in the matter is in his hands, that there is no la hawla wala Quwata illa
biLlah what does this mean? That there is no change that can happen to me? No harm that can happen
to me no benefit that can happen to me except by the permission of Allah. What superstition does, it
		

			makes you believe in other forces of good and bad and mostly it's negative can harm me besides that
Allah subhanaw taala not legislated by Allah subhanaw taala and this is what the nebulous alum tried
to fix I will link this up to the Coronavirus and the contagious disease which this is a as I said,
the hadith is saying yeah, now I do know contagious diseases. What does that mean? Yes, Allah is
saying that we shouldn't believe in contagious diseases we'll talk about that makes gives more
clarity.
		

			And if we look at today,
		

			the speaker loop is that every culture and society has the side beliefs and you listen to the old
old wives tales and they say the old man said to say we take these things, where did they come from?
Many of these things come from a lack of understanding of science, it comes from John Helia
ignorance and once knowledge is presented, and you understand how it works, then you take away the
the mystical side of it. So if you look at certain things which are taken in in common culture to be
lucky and lucky, Friday the 13th Why is Friday the 13th presumed to be bad luck. Well, this is a
European thing. Friday was a bad day because it's the day of these heretics with a witch is get
		

			together and they practice the magic meaning Muslims, right in the pot, people that were non Muslim,
they looked at us we come into the mosque, we're doing some funny business we chanting. So Friday
was taken as a bad, bad day. And 13 was the number the disciple of NaVi Saturday See, deceived him.
So the number 13 became a bad synonymously because nothing to do has no basis Friday the 13th is
just as good as Friday the 20th doesn't matter Fridays. In fact, the most blessed day of the week,
and the number 13 has no no significance. We do not believe in numerology. 786 has no difference to
123 don't believe that 786 has any power to bless your car. Your license, flexibility means nothing.
		

			Right? It just basically means if you drive like an idiot, Muslim people know it's a Muslim guy
driving like an idiot.
		

			So, and we don't believe that any month has any bad Mr. Week, we do believe certain months have
superiority in terms of Baraka. Allah has not made any day worse over any other day. He has rather
elevated Friday, and the month of Ramadan and the four sacred months and is put blessings in those
months, months like Rajab and Shaban the official blessings in these kinds of months, but the
unknown months that are bad for you know days that are bad for you. So, it numbers we said no such
thing as a lucky number or an unlucky number. We do not believe that animals have any negative signs
in them a black cat or white dove, no such thing and to believe in these things, and to to alter And
		

			this is the point of today's lecture to alter your your your actions your activity based on that is
in a way a type of shake a type of minus year to alter your behavior based on a belief without
knowledge without evidence is a type of disrespect to Allah subhanho wa Taala and a weakness in your
trust in Allah subhanaw taala as we said stars and horoscopes Subhan Allah the Prophet SAW Salem his
son dies on the same the same moment the sun is eclipsing and in the back in the day and eclipse the
sun disappears for an hour or two it was very scary they couldn't understand what's going on in the
past today we understand very what's what's happening is a planet or the moon is moving in front of
		

			it. It's very simple. We understand it there is no now today we take the kids and we go and we
marvel at the beauty of an eclipse in the past it was scary. We don't even know if the sun is gonna
come back. And so naturally the Sahaba out of the you know the the love for pieces of them said
surely the death of the Sun Sun Ibrahim and the Eclipse are linked to these two things must be
linked. And in the height of his grief he's crying is as a Father My son is dying, but it's always
gonna be first and he says what happens on the earth the sun does not in his words. The sun is not
eclipsed by the
		

			birth or death of anyone rather they are Ayat of Allah. These are signs of Allah's grandeur and
magnitude. We're cool no Viva la que yes but rule that they have their own orbits. When the sun will
eclipse is based on its orbit, we can predict it 1000s of years in the future because it follows a
planned procedure as Allah had decreed. It does not affect anything on the earth, nor do we affect
it. Right. So this is teaching us that. So again, even looking at horoscope I see this many times
yeah, one even for entertainment purposes. It is a type of shit. It's a major lesson. Don't ever
look at your horoscope. Don't ever check in that. Your love will you will meet the love of your
		

			life. You know, but unfortunately this quarantine so you know spinal all nonsense all nonsense.
names being lucky or unlucky. I've heard again the Subhanallah that this child he was given the
wrong name. He was mean to have a different name and therefore bad luck has fallen on him. Yes,
there are certain names which are haram which are not good. And those names It's haram to give and
they are good names and that we hope to take from it. But there's no such thing as heavy names. I've
heard this before the name was too heavy for him or to her I don't know what that means. I don't
know how the name is heavy.
		

			And then more more common to our our our time cutting your nails at night. Maybe the old people know
that this was something that you shouldn't be doing. This or the cutting nails at night was taken as
a bad thing in the past. No, but the stick doesn't know. Right? So cutting nails at night, some
people are nodding, maybe the much older group. Maybe that was some anti that said you know you're
going to cut yourself you cut your nail at night and it took to be some metaphysical thing. water in
the glass for the date that you leave a glass of water when someone has died. This again is
completely an effect this mood is shaking this it is the belief of the soul that remaining behind
		

			the soul leaving dying before it was its appointed time. The concept of a ghost for example, is that
the person died before his time. This goes directly against Allah's cover. No one dies except by the
permission of Allah. Yes, there are supernatural things which we believe that to be jinn, that's a
different topic altogether. Spirits Don't linger. The minute you are taken. You either go to your
Jannah and you don't want to come back to even your wife or your kids you're happy the man all our
deceased people be in a place so happy looking at us and saying they're worried about Corona and all
this why don't they just join us things are so much good here. And we miss the ones who are strapped
		

			suffering suffering for the sins may Allah have mercy on them. Well let make it easy for them. This
is belief attached to that closing the mirrors when someone dies you find the Subhanallah even in
many Muslim homes when you go in for the janazah all the murders are closed why? We just do it
because we just do it. Believe from the Europeans that they murder captured your soul that when you
die, your soul is traveling and it can get stuck inside the mirror. This is complete nonsense, and
they failed to break a murderer was also unlucky. It releases the spirits complete nonsense. If you
break the murder. You just have to buy a new murder. Nothing like that. Horseshoes, rabbit foods
		

			containing pop ability to good luck charms nonsense. Even Tao wheeze weighing things with Islamic
writings on it. Even if it is Quranic writing on it. This is not permissible. You can hang 10 Quran
in your car. It will not protect it from accidents or protected from someone stealing it.
		

			The Quran yes is a means of protection through reciting it. The recitation of the Quran will protect
you the calamata of Allah as the promises are also becoming matalon tamma in Shalimar Allah, Oh
Allah, I seek protection through your Perfect Words from all all misfortune or evil that you
created. This is only accessible through reciting the Quran or through the DUA hanging the Quran or
having your house stockpiled and ice covered filled with mishaps. So I'm going to protect you. And
even if you have the black stone of the Kaaba in your car, it will not stop it from being stolen.
hijackers will still take it you still need your tracker and all that doesn't make a difference. The
		

			belief that menstruating women are bad or especially at the geneticists Pinilla. You find this very
sad and one of the the the the oppression we do to our sisters, we say to the sister, you can't
greet your husband, you're in your head when he died. The daughters you can't go near the body
because the menstruating woman she Ward's off the angels of mercy because of her the angels of Rama
are not near the dead person. Alright, I'm glad to see confused faces because there are other faces
who not they hate saying yes we've seen this we've encountered this this morning even happened to my
own family and I people told them you're not allowed to go near your father because you are in your
		

			head you can't kiss him or greet him now. Subhan Allah is once you've said if if women menstruating
women keep angels away I will surround myself with hate women so that the molecule milk will not
come near me Subhan Allah and nothing like that. Nothing like that lady in a hate nut she is no
there is no difference to her. There is no Nigel so upon her is only thing she cannot perform Salah
and she cannot obviously have * during the time. Assault is believed as always
		

			mean, as a magical power, salt is a magical power. Why? Why has salt always been something powerful,
because it's amazing. You put the stick here, and you put another state to the one you put salt on
it, two, three days later, the one without the salt is become rotten, whereas the other one is
preserved. So it is believed that salt has some amazing power, it's a magical kind of substance, and
therefore you're not the salt over as a Cafaro, you must throw it over your shoulder. Oh, nonsense.
We know the reason why salt removes water from the bottom, it removes moisture from the meat. And
because there's no moisture, no bacteria can grow in the in the fall, it remains preserved simple
		

			science. And because people didn't understand the attached Bakerloo fees to these things. And so the
Profit System comes to remove the darkness of Janelia.
		

			And therefore, as we said, and I must mention Darwin's because perhaps many of these things are not
relevant to you, but they might be brothers sitting here with Darwin's around the Knicks. I've said
this many times you should not be waiting as the mats or Tao is around your neck. This is a type of
shake. This is a type of shake. The prophets of Salem took the pledge of 10 people, one of them he
didn't accept Islam, the minister shadowless I don't accept your Islam. Why? Because you're weighing
something. Yeah, what is this thing it is to protect me take this thing off, if you and he said if
you died with this thing on you would not have been successful meaning you wouldn't go to Jana.
		

			Because of that. It is a type of disrespect to Allah to say this string year. With these words in
here I don't even know because someone blew on it is more powerful as a predictor than my dua to
you. Yeah, ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada, then my salah to you five times a day, remove these things from
your house, from your car from your body, remove it away from you, the province of the man was
weighing a type of bangle, a brass ring of like a bangle around his his hand. The problem was was
that what is this thing? And so the man said, This is to protect me from old age and weakness, the
resources remove it, because it not only will not only will it not protect you, there's no medical
		

			purposes. But if you die with it, you will not be successful meaning you won't go to Jannah because
of it.
		

			So
		

			you we should remove the superstitions from us. Now, how do we the profit from linked contagious
diseases with the belief in superstition? How do we reconcile this? It was at such a point that some
scholars of the past they believed they said to believe in contagious disease was a type of
superstition that diseases could not transmit from one person to another. You find this in the books
of the scholars of old because science in the time was limited. You see the wisdom of an individual
salaam because just as he says there are no such thing as contagious diseases. There's other Hadith
where he says when we mentioned this last week, when there is a plague in one land, do not go to
		

			that land with plague. And if plague befalls you in your land, then you remain there and do not live
in it. Don't spread the plague. And he says do not mix the sick animal the sick camel with the
healthy ones. If you see one of the camels are sick, isolating quarantine him Take him away. And
another Hadith and it says run away from the Lipper as you were to run away from the lion if a man
has leprosy, avoid him like you would avoid the lion. So we see ya rasool Allah Salam, how do you
reconcile these two? On the one hand, you're saying there's no contagious diseases to believe in it
is a baker roofie. On the other hand, you're saying that may take these precautions
		

			within reason says there is no suffer. He's not saying there's no such thing as a month of suffer.
He's saying the belief that there is a supernatural harm in the month of suffer is wrong. And to
believe in a supernatural paranoia, to diseases to become hysterical. This is wrong. You take the
precautions, you understand the science behind it, you take the measures, and then you leave your
fate to Allah. You don't become paralyzed by fear and hysteria. And this is what we're seeing today.
Because that fear is the same fear. Like the person waking up today, Friday the 13th I feel scared
today. I feel worried that something bad is gonna happen to me. I feel scared if I go here or there,
		

			I'm going to catch some kind of play. This extra fear is a lack of Tawakkol in Allah. And the best
way to treat this fear is to understand the science behind it. So I'm going to talk a little bit
about the science of the Coronavirus, so you can understand what is the difference between taking
the precaution being secure as Allah wants you to be secure, and being paranoid. When do we cross
the line into paranoia? Because if you look what's happening, for example, in the world and in the
markets, the harm of the fear of the virus is causing more danger than the virus itself. People's
pensions wiped out.
		

			Economies collapsing, and these things need to be understood. So this virus let's talk a little bit
the science. Perhaps the best video I watch, I do a lot. I try to do a lot of research when I do a
football. The best video I've watched is a
		

			This video on your immune system, what a beautiful, wonderful thing. And we take it for granted
Subhanallah how your body fights viruses and bacteria all the time. And it's amazing, amazing
machine your body, every time you inhale, millions of harmful substances have been entering your
body, they crawling all over your skin. Now, every way you can isolate it, why you can't. And it's
only through the grace of Allah, He gave you this ability of your body to fight back without you
even thinking about it.
		

			People don't know the difference between a virus and a bacteria, I need to explain this Corona is a
virus that is something like a bacteria.
		

			What's the difference between the two, the bacteria is a much bigger thing. It's a living thing. It
has its in itself, it, it, it consumes food, it gets energy it grows, it replicates. It's a living
particle, living organism, a virus is much smaller. And scientists don't even know if this thing is
alive. Because it is like a little bit of code. Like Like, like if you does it, guys, you have a
corrupt code. It's just a particle of code in a in a capsule in a shell. And it just floats around
like that. It can't do anything. It can't expand, it can't grow. The only time it can do something
is where this shell comes in touch with a living cell or an organism. And then it hijacks the
		

			organism, then that code injects itself into that organism and replicates it photocopies itself over
and over and over. And it hijacks the machinery of the cell to make more of it until the ship the
cell, the cell it bursts and more of the viruses expanded. That's what's happening. So that's
exactly what happens in our body. Bacteria are living organisms, virus are like these particles, and
they are more viruses in the world than all other organisms put together. They are more viruses than
that. So viruses, uncountable number of viruses in this world, they they dominate the entire world
in terms of the sheer sheer quantity. So the body needs to fight them in different ways.
		

			You might ask the question, Why, if I'm sick, I can I have a sore throat, I can go and get thick
amoxicillin. And it can solve my sore throat when I have a bacterial infection. But when I have a
viral infection, I'd contact amoxicillin will make no difference. Why? Because an antibiotic kills
bacteria. It disrupts the way this organism is bought its functions, the organism is alive, it
basically poisons its function.
		

			The antibiotic, it's like a poison being sprayed on a shell, it does not harm that virus in the
least. And that's why antibiotics do not work. And so antibiotics antibacterial, cannot work on a
virus, the only way you defeat a virus is your body must learn how to fight it.
		

			That virus enters your body. And now your immune system kicks in your immune system analyzes this
thing, it looks for how it attaches to your cells. Because there's a special lock and key kind of
mechanism, it must attach itself to the cells. And so your body is able to once it learns the code,
it can break that thing and then destroy it. That's why you need to become sick for a few days or
you get a vaccine, your body learns how to fight it. And once it's defeated it you will never get it
again. You shouldn't get it again. Chicken pox, many of you have experienced chicken pox chicken pox
is caused by a virus. You get it, your body learns how to fight it, how to destroy it, and that
		

			memory is kept inside your immune system. So the next time a chicken pox virus enters your body,
your immune system knows exactly how to defeat it.
		

			And there are so many viruses unfortunately,
		

			that no matter how many times we defeat them, a new strain emerges. And it makes us sick again and
your body must go through the process again and again. And most of the time, most of the viruses get
defeated without you even feeling any symptoms. Sometimes while it's fighting inside your body. It
feels like a flu like symptoms and sometimes it becomes worse and we'll talk about that. So this
Coronavirus itself.
		

			As I said it's a string of genetic material inside a pod surrounded by spikes. And those spikes make
it look like a crown. That's what's called Coronavirus. A crown in Latin is called the corona and
it's these spikes that attach to your cell. They stick to yourself. And then the DNA inside the RNA
inside this virus injects itself in your in your living cell and hijacks it and it becomes a cell
producing more viruses more Corona viruses and
		

			Coronavirus has always been with people but it's a very mild virus for people. They all Coronavirus
is also that affects animals and particularly in bats. Bats have a very strong immune system. Very
powerful immune system. And so the viruses that fight so it's a
		

			constant war. As the immune system gets stronger, the virus gets stronger. So the viruses of the
bats are super strong, because they're constantly at war with the bats. Now, if those viruses can
mutate and they can jump to humans, then we are dealing with a new kind of enemy that our body is
not exposed to. And that is basically what happened. Not the first time it's happened in the last 20
years like three times. We first had the SARS virus, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, Coronavirus.
It's also Coronavirus. They always attack the lungs. It's a virus that attacks your lungs. So the
SARS virus came about also from bats. Then there was the MERS virus, the Middle Eastern Respiratory
		

			Syndrome, right bats, camels people, that's how it jumped. And now we have the newest virus, the
COVID 19 virus, which went from bats assumed to be a ganglion, Allah, Allah and we were still not
too sure to people, right, these viruses jumped. And this virus as we see, it's new to our body. Our
body doesn't know how to reach out to fight it. We're not used to it. And so you get sick, and it
learns by fighting by getting sick, how to defeat it. And for most of us, 90 plus percent, you get
infected, you have five, six days of sickness, flu like symptoms, your body learns how to defeat it
and you're immune to it Alhamdulillah that's how it is. So let's look at this virus. This disease in
		

			numbers.
		

			As of yesterday, and this numbers obviously change every day. Around 130 people around the world has
been infected 130,000 people around the world has been infected about 80% to 90% of them in China.
China's wait began, okay.
		

			nearly 70,000 of the 130 have recovered, they've been infected. And 70,000 have basically recovered
that five, six days of sickness. And then they recovered. And there's like another 60,000 of people
who are currently sick 130,000 More than half have completely recovered. The other half are still
sick and they are fighting it. Only 4000 Let's say 5000 People have died from this virus. 5000
reportedly posted some countries reporting numbers, this question marks meaning that this virus is
killed rate is between the range of one and 2% meaning one and 2% of the people that get the virus
will actually die from it. 90 plus percent of people that's infected or the experience is a mild
		

			fever, a bit of a cough and some breathing difficulties and then they become fine. That's what 90
plus percent of the people experienced in South Africa. 17 people have already
		

			been tested positive with this virus. I see just recently old mutual, someone at old Mutual has been
dispositive like basically an hour ago so it's easier in Cape Town. It is here it is here is
arrived. What does this mean for you and me comparing it with other viruses,
		

			the SARS virus and said this Coronavirus is not the first time it came to humans. SARS was the first
time we saw as the tech services and maybe you should worry about the more than the SARS virus. The
problem with that is the SARS virus of 2008 I believe 8000 people contracted the virus.
		

			So 1000 people died of that virus and the MERS virus two and a half 1000 people died contracted
sorry contracted the virus.
		

			The killer rate of SARS and MERS was much higher. 10% of the people that got SARS died 30% of those
who contracted the MERS virus died 30% And you compare that to Ebola which is like 40% mean half the
people that gets Ebola die, this virus is around one to 2% so it is still a mild pathogen. What
makes this virus a bit scary is the rate at which it can spread.
		

			It spreads very very quickly and it seems to survive outside the body for much longer.
		

			And as I said the symptoms for 90 plus percent people. All they will feel is like a mild flu. In
fact, you probably had worse flus in your life, then the Coronavirus, flu,
		

			this flu for most people, they will say I don't know what the big deal was. I was down for about a
week and I'm fine again. I just had a bit of a cough and a mild fever. They are saying in fact
doctors are telling you if you have the symptoms of the virus, just stay at home don't come to the
doctor and listen to become CDs. Why? Because when you go to the doctor, you are making everyone
sick along the way you're spreading the virus. Whereas if you just stay at home, you will get better
and also the doctor cannot give you a vaccine. We don't have a cure. You will have to fight the
virus like you flight to fight the flu. treat the symptoms take a headache tablet, a pain tablet,
		

			use fluids and just erased it out. And that's it. The big danger is spreading it. Yes there are
people that will get a severe form of this virus. Now what happens what is this virus doing? It's
invading your cell
		

			holes in your lungs, the lungs are very sensitive organ. As the virus takes over your lungs, your
body is fighting back, and it's destroying those cells that have become invaded. Now, when there's a
fight between your virus and your body, you'll see on the skin, you get pus. Now that fluid starts
building up in your lungs. And you know, if your lungs become flooded with fluids, especially septic
dirty fluids, you can actually die from that you can get pneumonia, it can also result in bacteria
now entering your lungs, because it's a very nice dirty environment for other particles to start
living inside. And that's what the danger is, that when the body and the virus get the fight gets
		

			out of control, sometimes, in fact, many, many times what kills the person is not the virus, it's
your body. going extreme. Your fever is a defense mechanism, your fever, right, your body raises the
temperature to kill the virus. So the virus raising, you raise the temperature, but it goes out of
control. And actually the fever is the thing that harms you, that kills you. So it's your body
having an overreaction and harming good cells in the fight.
		

			How is the virus spread, the virus is basically spread through particles of the virus in body
fluids. Now does your body fluids leave your body when you cough and sneeze most of the time, and
that must have nastiness, and it is in the air. And if you inhale it, if a healthy person inhales
it, then you've inhaled the virus doesn't mean automatically you will get it your body will fight it
off. But it could be how you get infected more than the inhaling of coughing and sneezing is that
the virus can survive on surfaces. So the the guy coughs on the surface, the virus is alive up to
some say 24 hours. Now you put your phone the you touch the virus on your hands, and then you touch
		

			your face you eat with it, and now you've ingested the virus. And therefore, the best thing you can
do is to wash your hands thoroughly. And for those of us who are coughing or sneezing to cough in a
tissue, or in your, in your, in your in your arm, you cough like this, so it doesn't spread doesn't
spread. They say now, in the people say that in the past, the most dangerous thing on a plane was
someone saying Allahu Akbar was saying some Arabic word. Now coughing and sneezing is the most
dangerous thing. So So vinyl live, you sneeze and say Alhamdulillah that's like the ultimate bed,
you sneeze and you say Arabic
		

			Who is who is at risk. They are people that are more at risk than others, a healthy person with a
normal immune system, your chances are, as I said, 90 plus percent for many of you that you had much
worse odds than that going to an exam and you felt confident, right? This is 90 plus percent, you
will be fine. But there are people who are at risk. If your immune system is not fully developed,
meaning your body cannot deal with the virus, like old people, over the 70 year old mock. Most of
those who died, the vast majority of the 4000 Plus who died are old people. So if you're old, you
need to take the extra precautions for you. Maybe coming to even Joomla might be at risk. Going to
		

			big gatherings like this might be a risk and you have a reason therefore, to self isolate yourself
to isolate yourself. Anyone who has a compromised immune system, meaning you're already fighting a
battle. Cancer patients, people who go for molecule the people who have cancer cells have terrible
disease, the chemotherapy fries your immune system, it destroys your immune system. And therefore
you are basically a sitting duck for viruses, people who have organ transplants, they taking
medication to keep your immune system at bay because the immune system even fights the new organ. So
those people have to be at risk as well. diabetes as well. We find a lot of people with diabetes and
		

			people with lung with lung problems. You're smokers. Yes, salam, every, every every Subhanallah
everything you'll find smoking on the list, right no matter what, you know, bumping your toe, if you
smoker, it increases your chances of bumping into anything SubhanAllah. So be careful because it
affects the lungs because because it affects the lungs, smokers your lungs already compromised, your
lungs already damaged, right from the smoking. And before them further damage to your lungs will
cause respiratory problems. So keep safe.
		

			How to keep safe as we said the most important thing is to wash your hands and the 22nd rule. You
know, you cover your entire hand and it's all gonna be so seldom taught us you wash it up until over
your wrists much as the fingertips over the wrists and you wash it for 20 seconds with soap or with
an alcohol sanitizer questions. Yeah chef I use alcohol sanitizer is my wudu broken you will do is
fine no problem don't worry about it might avoid crowded places if you can avoid as best you can. So
is good time now avoid crowded places if you are sick. You know you show signs of a cough way a
fever so if you have a fever
		

			Cough, these two things, a fever and a cough, then you need to avoid, you know, public spaces. Don't
come to work don't go to the mosque than me. Someone says a man who has garlic breath should not
come to the masjid. So just a bad smell is enough for you not to attend the Masjid. Not saying that
fine. I'm not going to come to Nigeria. joumana fix the smell good. I do that and fix your symptoms,
then come to the magic, but don't cause other people inconvenience and harm others.
		

			The advice that we give once you understand this, it's here. All we can do is take the precautions
we link this up this issue of Coronavirus can be the same, like the Arab who looks at that bird and
thinks this is going to be a bad day. Like the person who believes this is a Friday the 13th is the
end of the world because it's the 13th No, you take the precautions you look at what is logical,
scientific, learn from it. And then you put your faith your faith in Allah. Do not panic. The panic
is worse than the pandemic we seeing now. Really, the panic is worse than the pandemic. And don't
give into paranoia. Take the precautions Don't be irresponsible. Tie your camel. But don't also not
		

			come to the market. There are some people are so scared the camera will be stolen. I don't even go
to the market. No go to the market. But tie your camel. Tie your camel and then put your faith in
Allah. If you took the precautions now you've left your Allah I leave myself to your hands, you
determine what happens what doesn't happen. This is our call. And this isn't going to be someone
says there will be a group of people 70,000 Who before the Judgment occurs in the Deaf pm before
Allah asked the questions. He will say 70,000 of you intergender before the questioning who are
these lucky 70,000 The provinces and says these are people who do not believe in omens and
		

			superstitions. They don't go for supernatural cures and remedies. They put their faith in Allah
meaning they take what is logical, scientific, proven, and they have no more fear beyond that. Do
what is in your power, the rest I put my faith and trust in Allah, pure can Yaquina Allah these are
the 70,000 lucky people who will intergender May Allah grant us to be amongst them. May Allah grant
that they be a cure from this virus. The super human body is an amazing thing it will defeat this
virus. Last Subhan Allah we overtime then Abyssus made this dua remember this, you may do Ayala lead
never my ummah be overcome by one external enemy, and Allah accepted the DUA and he made another dua
		

			to Allah lead never a natural calamity, a virus disease and earthquake or flood, destroy my ummah
completely and Allah accepted that DUA and then he said, Yeah Allah, let my ummah never be divided
and fight each other and Allah did not accept that dua. So don't worry about the external, fix
things internally. Allah will take care of the external we put our faith in Allah mean just a few
