			was time to sleep. And all this blessing data was blessing our ability to learn. As we gather once
again, seeking a loves forgiveness, seeking a loves acceptance. Traditionally, at least for myself,
I don't usually start with that this way.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:45
			But I want to take a moment and pray for our brothers and sisters around the world. Kashmir, China,
in all the countries places where our brothers and sisters incent brothers and sisters, who suffer
day after day, night after night.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:52
			And there is no weird turn for help for guidance for strength.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:02:03
			We want to take a moment and offer the greatest strength that we know. That is our dwelling, and
prayer to learn. So
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:04
			we ask
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			them to ease their pain and suffering.
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:10
			Whereas the learners
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:15
			all those whose lives have been taken,
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:23
			that their lives are not taken in vain. Right normal learners, so it doesn't accept all of them from
amongst
		
00:02:25 --> 00:03:16
			a lot of you. I want to pray for our students, the last Friday that we may have a chance to gather
like this. Many of you will have tomorrow in other places. So wherever you go after this week, as
you return back to your studies, as you return back to a routine. And for some of you, students,
you're starting a brand new routine. It's a brand new chapter and phase in your life. Some of you
are graduating from a particular face, some of you have completed and you're starting a new job or
career, whatever it is, we want to take the moment on this lesson today and pray for you. That male
must title the title and protect your event
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:25
			in your hearts and in your lives. For the parents, I know that you never stop working.
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:32
			Even though kids will have a summer break. Parents don't get those.
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:36
			You constantly have to worry, think.
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:44
			And there are parents here today, that the back of their minds, they're also scared.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:54
			They're also scared. You have your child, then you groom them and protect and love.
		
00:03:55 --> 00:04:05
			Even if a mosquito comes around, you don't want anything to harm your child. But then when this time
of the year approaches, you have to kind of let it go.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:39
			And especially those of you who have never experienced that before with your kids, it's one of the
most nerve wracking feelings you cannot describe unless you're a parent, you don't know how to
describe this feeling. You go home and drop your kids off to school, and you can't stop thinking
about them until you see them physically in front of you. And so for mom and dad out here today,
metal learners will give you the best in this world and in the hereafter. May Allah
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:59
			give you strength, knowledge and wisdom to cope with and overcome the challenges that you face. Not
just yourself, but with your children. And all of the pressures and problems that they confront. Day
after day. They're gonna bring
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:15
			those problems to you. And even if they don't relate to you, when you're a parent, you just know
something's not right. And when those moments happen, and a lot, so much will give you strength to
get through it alone.
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:26
			These days, lots of students and parents are asking for advice. And they're asking for advice,
especially for their kids.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:43
			Because the number one thing that aside from peace and security and so on, but the most important
thing in our hearts is that at the end of the day, despite whatever the climate is out there, I want
my kids
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:46
			to be proud of their religion.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:52
			I want my children to hold on to that.
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:55
			solution.
		
00:05:57 --> 00:06:04
			Give me something tell us something that would help us and especially our kids, hold on.
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:28
			Today, shovel love and Karina brothers and sisters, I have only two things that I want to share with
all of us, especially our students. So it sounds like I might be talking to you in Shell a long
time. And I pray that you still find this message of lifting and beneficial in some capacity.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:42
			students, students, there are a lot of common questions that you asked when you get out there in
school and work in other places. You asked about gender relations a lot.
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:51
			You asked about the interaction, the laws of interaction, you asked about friends,
		
00:06:52 --> 00:07:03
			you asked about the challenges of crane and boyfriend juwan. When those timings are conflicting with
your schedules, you ask a lot of these things.
		
00:07:05 --> 00:07:19
			And sometimes you get good answers. And then there are other times you you're left stuck in the
middle, you don't know what to do. So unfortunately, some of those students, you know, what they do
is
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:22
			they don't do it at all.
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:27
			It's just, you know, I have school, I've got test about so much.
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:30
			I'll bring it over tonight when I get home.
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:38
			And so parents now see this stuff. But they also feel trapped. Because what are they supposed to do?
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:55
			When your kid comes home, and you can tell him or he or she their actions, their attitude, gives you
an insight clue that something isn't right. And when you dig deeper, you find them. They have a
girlfriend,
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:58
			that she's got a boyfriend,
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:19
			or they've been on social media. And they're going through stuff and looking at pictures and what
have you. But they're doing this with an account that you don't know anything about. Here you are
thinking you've had them on social media and mom, dad and the role communicated on here she's got a
secret account that you don't know about.
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:29
			So what do you do to get through the storm? And this storm, it seems like it never ends a year?
Well, I thought
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:39
			if I really truly want to tell you something from my heart, and pray little luggages be successive
two feet, wish to say to you
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:52
			that experience has taught us and parents that you know what I'm talking about. experience has
taught us that these problems and these struggles are not going away.
		
00:08:54 --> 00:09:03
			gender relations, how you feel and your attraction to the opposite gender is never going to
extinguish
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:20
			You and I have to figure out how to keep those feelings under control. You can't get rid of them.
It's our nature. It's how a lot of creatives we have an attraction to the opposite gender.
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:28
			You can be married, you have children, you can be an elderly, whatever it is, there's always
something there.
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:32
			So the first issue is how do you cope with that?
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:40
			So when you look at all these problems, there's only two things I want to share with you. Here's
number one.
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:50
			For the pilgrims and projects that I've just come back
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:55
			there's a chapter in the poor and just for you. So
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			in that sort of a tell
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:13
			You have everything that you need to have. And then think about when you're preparing for how much
when you're going through how much and when you can graduate and finish your hedge.
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:20
			Now pay attention to the last verse, a student to hedge, the last verse
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:24
			that super started off with the Day of Judgment.
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:29
			It started off with a day of witnessing
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:44
			a lesson. All Mankind, not yet anyone who judge. He's not just talking so kind of without into the
pilgrims. It's really amazing.
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:53
			This first opening, adding over sentence captured what hedge was all about, which is various people
coming
		
00:10:55 --> 00:11:34
			from every corner of the earth, and they're going to gather, so it almost feels like there's another
planet within a planet. So Allah has given us all of humankind, watch out, be conscious, because the
Day of Judgment, there's gonna be an earthquake. In other words, student be frightening, excluding
the terrifying day, that's your opening introduction to hedge. That's what you have to think about
the Day of Judgment. When all of a sudden knife manufactured here, we pray that a lot accepts your
reaction. A lot of them mean, a lot of concludes, listen to what he tells you.
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:41
			people sign up, what ad to center, or policy will be done.
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:49
			How long so it tells us, especially those pilgrims, established your prayers.
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:59
			Now, when you go for Hajj, what's the one act of worship you're doing the most is prayer. When
you're not praying,
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:06
			you're praying some kind of sweetened soda or nothing, or something.
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:10
			Nice percent of your efforts is all installed. So
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:26
			when all is said and done, a line tells you Oh, by the way, now that you're done, you're making sure
that you keep prayers, you keep that consistent that discipline, never let go.
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:37
			This is what appeal is. Now. We say that appeal literally means that establishes this correct as
having described the word appeals.
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:42
			I want you to think about something about this particular word.
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:49
			When I tell you, if I tell you, you need to establish a legacy.
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:57
			And then I tell someone else, Brother, you gotta establish the legacy.
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:03
			Both of these sentences are talking about the same thing.
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:17
			But which one sounds more serious? Which one sounds more urgent? Which one sounds more important?
The first one, when I say to establish,
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:34
			really put your mind on what kind of legacy you want to leave. Now, here's the beautiful thing about
this. Saw that isn't the only act of worship that starts of its command with
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:52
			everything else that we do is either told it's recommended. It's encouraged or it is legislated
through different terms or when it comes to solid unless that appeal poly appeal.
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:58
			So the first thing is, when you hear the word appealing to establish,
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:05
			it really captures your attention. This is serious.
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:09
			What do I establish a lot of
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:14
			scholars they say that Allah is the one thing
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:23
			that gives you the solutions in life, that nothing in life can give you the solution for
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:35
			nothing in this world can solve a particular problem or issue at whatever magnitude whether it be at
a global level or the intimate level.
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:42
			So that the only thing that you and I have done could solve it.
		
00:14:44 --> 00:14:57
			how that process works. It's not our territory, a legend tell us them. That's this territory. What
is the low want you to do? If there is one thing that you never ever let go
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			if you don't know who it is
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:18
			If you don't know anything about zen, if you don't know how to read, so for me, if you're not
memorizing, if you're not doing that stuff, okay? You know that stuff is important. But before you
get there, get your lifestyle change in to a routine, you know, for me,
		
00:15:19 --> 00:15:27
			is really one of the most remarkable disciplines for any human being in the history of mankind.
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:34
			Five times a day that beliefs, we stop our lives.
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:55
			Just let that resonate for a minute, five times a day, your life stops. You can't talk to anyone,
you can eat, you can, you can socialize, you. And then the next thing is you've got to distance
yourself away from distractions
		
00:15:56 --> 00:16:07
			are focused on the one thing, you know, when non Muslims hear this, they're amazed. You do that five
times, and one of them is sleeping in the morning you do that?
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:21
			It's remarkable. How we treated saw that. And if we've gotten the lessons from it, it's a whole
nother subject. We're just talking about the command and how this command is introduced to you and
I.
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:32
			So for five times a day, we put our lives in the state of spiritual emergency.
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:47
			Establish nothing's going to change, whether we're at a park, whether we're at a parking lot
outside, in the rain in the snow, when it's time to pray, what do you do, you must pray.
		
00:16:48 --> 00:17:01
			No one will ever truly appreciate this theme. And truly understanding who Allah is, unless we pray,
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:05
			not three times, not four times, it must be this.
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:07
			By
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:10
			now, let's turn it on.
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:14
			And look what happens next. When you're done with
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:17
			us the last day of
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:19
			people. So our
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:22
			next tour is what?
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:25
			How did it start?
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:33
			Success is given to who was the most motivated people that he met.
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:46
			After that, you need to understand this word, if you don't understand what those words really say.
In the English translation, it's translated a success.
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:50
			That's about 2% of what it really is.
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:58
			And by the way, there are many words in Arabic to describe success, or being a winner or a champion.
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:04
			That is the kind of success that you deserve.
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:36
			didn't just fall into your hands. You can watch a race or T two teams playing a sports basketball or
what have you. And us look at one team and you know, that team is going to win this game. It's it's
the balls, they've got the best players, the best athletes, they've got the amazing record,
everything's the whole package. And they're going up against a team that has pretty much has the
worst record in history. And to look at these two teams battling one another,
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:45
			and the team that has the worst record, ends up destroying this one, and they win everything.
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:50
			And they didn't do this by fluke. They've worked hard.
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:59
			They dedicated themselves, they believe, and the reaping the rewards. That's what it is.
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:07
			It's the kind of success that you get to can see it in front of you is hard.
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:16
			So the next time especially students, you come home when your mom and dad was okay, make sure you
pray. Mom, Dad, I'm tired and bla bla bla bla,
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:18
			you got to stop doing that.
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:21
			Because
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:24
			there's no way around this.
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:34
			Why do I have to pray every day? It's crazy. This is stuff that students say all the time. It's
crazy. Why do I do this?
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:36
			A lesson.
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:41
			You're gonna get success in a way that you deserve it.
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:58
			You're sweating now because of prayer. Who wants to wake up at 5am 3am in the morning and wetting
their lips, especially in the winter? Who wants to do that? But to do that big Why? Because you want
to be from
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:11
			Now I'm going to fast forward, because this is going to lead us down to the second point, that piece
of advice, I'm going to fast forward to the middle to the
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:13
			left.
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:28
			And for them, these believers that have been given success, they need to guard their private What
does this talking about? That's what I need to leave you with inshallah long term. And then the
second part.
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:30
			So this first part of
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:32
			a sauna,
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:48
			a sauna, metal block, so we don't preserve prayer, you know, lives, those of us that have struggled
to pray them a lot. So we will give you the strength as you walk out of here today for the rest of
your life, that you are counted amongst
		
00:20:50 --> 00:20:53
			a Latino culture
		
00:20:58 --> 00:20:59
			for stopping
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:36
			by of our brothers and sisters, especially students, listen carefully, to the second and last piece
of advice that I can create what uplifted me first, and it shocked all of us, a less second, and one
of the qualities of a successful believer is that the garden the private, have your moon here will
let you know only what
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:46
			it means that they guard themselves and protect themselves from this. So So what's the imagery here?
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:53
			You know, when you're talking to the opposite gender, this area is teaching you and I, as Muslims,
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:56
			stick to business.
		
00:21:57 --> 00:22:07
			Don't get mushy, mushy stuff. Don't start complimenting each other about something that is totally
irrelevant to the conversation, Get to the point.
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:38
			And silver, the students, you asked this question a lot, how do I get how to understand gender
interaction? The answer is just don't do it. And if you have to stick to the conversation, stick to
the subject. If you need help, if they're part of your project or group, if your teacher is the
opposite gender slap is not telling you to put your eyes into your desk, don't look at the teacher.
What is telling you is
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:45
			just keep things relevant. Stick to business, you're there to learn, just learn.
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:54
			And even if you have to inhale respectfully with a blunt manner, cut the conversation. Just do it.
		
00:22:55 --> 00:23:11
			Because this is not going to stop. And it's a challenge, not just for students, we have to stop
saying that. This is a challenge for all of us. Every one of us have this challenge. But a lot is
what it says when we do this. When you protect yourself,
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:39
			you will find clarity in everything you do. Students, your homework will start to make sense. Your
studies will become easier, your mind will be clear you'll be memorizing things, everything will
start to make sense that you get this one thing under control, because scholars tell us if you can
control what you see, then you will control what you do. So with that being said,
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:42
			two pieces of advice.
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:46
			Number one, never stop praying.
		
00:23:48 --> 00:23:52
			It's urgent. When a lamentable set of
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:54
			firewood any
		
00:23:55 --> 00:24:23
			victory lingering learning any level. Allah says there's no danger worthy of worship but to
establish prayers, Yahoo said, Listen to the next day. We usually stop there. What was the next day
in Asana, and the Day of Judgment is on its way as yet is in present tense. it's on its way. It's
already on a journey. He's still moving closer to us.
		
00:24:26 --> 00:24:27
			But
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:34
			its tendency to know exactly when it arrives. But it's coming.
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:50
			People ask the questions when they hear about that job when they heard about the science of the Day
of Judgment. What do we do? Oh my god, this is crazy. Like so many things are happening. The answer?
Slow down, saw the
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:52
			prey.
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:59
			That being said, mail was kind of withdrawn that except from us our prayers, mail narzo
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:58
			Just allow us to live our lives in prayer. Meaning that we establish prayers in our lives. We don't
