			All praise for Allah subhanho wa taala, who has given us the greatest gift of all, which is called
Hidayat
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:49
			and how we're going to name him that he had an early Hydra when I couldn't have to do longer than
Allah. And we will only realize the value of this neuroma when we face Allah subhanaw taala on the
day of judgment. And we ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to give us the ability to implement the reality
of Magadha in the law in our life. We ask Allah Subhana Allah to Allah that He grants us Allah,
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:59
			our departure from this world and he writes us an apostle Hakima respected by the sisters and is
also a great blessing to Allah subhanho wa Taala and that He has created us
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:48
			Within the best Omar, the OMA Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and I ask ALLAH SubhanA, Allah,
Allah that he grant all of us, in almost in around the world, the Shabbat, the intercession of
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and that his intercession be accepted. For us on the Day of
Judgment, respected brothers and sisters. In the past few in the past several weeks, I will say, we
know that Islamophobia has been on a rise due to several incidents. Not only that, you have people
in this world who will continue to preach the hate about Islam, people who will continue to alienate
Islam, and people who will continuously put within others the hate of Allah and His Rasulullah
		
00:05:48 --> 00:06:33
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam we see. But at the end, as this is going on, as this is going on, we see
that crimes are taking place. We know what happened a few days ago, in North Carolina, three people,
very young people who really embody of what a human being needs to be like. These were people who
were social activists. These were people who were chasing a dream. These were people who had just
been married six months ago, as the person who has just been recently married. And the and the time
they're spending with their wife, and the time they're spending with their spouse, thing as a
student who's going to school and was just started school, and now do that. But they have just been
		
00:06:33 --> 00:07:19
			accepted into med school, or dentistry, school or any other school. These were people who are
chasing their dream, but it was because of someone else. And their hate that a heinous crime took
place. And now those three people are not with us. Yesterday, I found out and most of you may know
by now that a Muslim brother in Canada was shot, someone knocked on his door and he looked through
the hole to see who he was, and someone shot him. Today, we found out I was born in Houston, and
it's still there, they're still discussing the show, finding out what exactly happened. Just Just
yesterday, or day before yesterday, and Muslim young girl HIV sister was being followed by by
		
00:07:19 --> 00:08:03
			someone for five to six miles. And that person he threatened her by saying that we are going to take
all your lives. This is currently happening in the place in a place where we thought that we were
always safe. And we ask Allah subhanaw taala to keep us safe. And shall we ask Allah subhanaw taala
to protect us. But at the same time, while there's so much fear, while there is so much
intimidation, what as we Muslims can do to suppress that fear. What can we do to eliminate that
intimidation. And the best way to sue this fear to sue this pain? And to eliminate this fear is to
study the life I was really wasn't allowed on equals no, because believe it or not respect your
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:44
			brothers sisters, what we are seeing today, we will find examples like this in the minds of those
who listen along what he was saying, the intimidation that's been put within us. We find that in the
life of this lesson, a lot of it was sending them that when we say where is the help of Allah
subhanho wa taala. This happened during the time of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that the
Prophet of Allah salAllahu Alaihe Salam is leaning against the Kaaba. He's leaning against the Kaaba
and the sahaba. They came to the Prophet. And they said, yes of Allah. Yes, below allow, when will
this finish this torture? When will it come to an end? And the Prophet sallallahu I assume that it
		
00:08:44 --> 00:09:29
			says that he was the against the Kaaba, he came forward to address these people who came to him. And
he says that, don't you reflect upon the people who came before you. There are people who denounced
them. These are people who did not give up their Eman for the sake of Allah subhanho wa taala. And
these were people who were tortured. And then he says, he says to his own Sahaba, that you're free,
he said, Easter. So we find that it's the hub of your world that they would go through this. We hear
the stories of our mother, the asset of your love, and what his father's Yasen went through what his
mother's Samia went through. These were people who were elders in the community. These were people
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:59
			who were the singers of the community, they were old. And yet because he said none of the law they
would hurt, their lives were taken away. So we need to truly reflect on the life of the of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, because what we are seeing around the entire world, it is still
not as bad as it is. In some other places around the world. We can still easily go different places.
We still able to go to work, or recenter brother and sister and when we see some of this
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:09
			You find three people who are in the gym, people were shopping a few days ago, some people
threatened all of us and everyone is on the alert. Think about our Muslim brothers and sisters
overseas.
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:53
			Think about him for a second where people are in prison because they see that either hate or love.
People who are hating because he said that you know, you love people who are tortured because they
say that and yet they're surviving and they're strong and we need to become strong. We inshallah
will become strong, we have to remain steadfast. We have to keep our focus on the loss of 100. What
the island? What do we see the News, the news and the current news coverages and you know, different
news stations, when they exaggerate and the hype of everyone, that this is what Islam and Muslims
are doing. Let us remember that this exactly happened. During the time of those who are still alive.
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:53
			It was
		
00:10:54 --> 00:11:21
			when the Prophet of Allah, Allah find some began to preach about Islam. He began to talk about
Islam. The operation went to a good college, they went to a party, who was a supporter of Muhammad
Sallallahu, it was settled. Yet he never believed in the message of the product. It is his own
nephew, but he knew this continuous support. They came to a modeling and they began to exaggerate,
because this is the habit of
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:59
			those who are against Islam. This is your habit that the Kingdom will fall in and begin to
exaggerate. Do you know what your nephew is doing? Your nephew is saying bad things about our our,
our forefathers, he said evil the wrong things about our forefathers and what they believed in this
and that it was Subhanallah when you look at the libros, who also loved while he was some he never
said anything about their gods. Because the Quran says not the beginning of their own and in tune in
there for soup Allah I want to be laying there in the water. It just says that we should not say
anything wrong or negative about someone else's faith. You think the person will go and say
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:35
			something about something negative about someone's fate, he never did that. But the more he came to
recall it and they said that this is what your nephew is doing. Once again, exaggerating the matter.
They did this we are seeing this today, let us reflect on the virus was Allahu alayhi wa sallam.
This happened during this time. What did the programming some do in reality, he only said that
either in de la, la, la La, he went around to the people about Allah subhanaw taala. He never said
anything about their idols. Allah subhanaw taala talks about the idols but the promise of never said
anything negative about that, please come forward. Please come forward.
		
00:12:36 --> 00:13:15
			So we need to reflect upon the life of this verse Allah while he was sitting down to help us get
through these tough times. Not only that, when we see that even through the time of Rasul Allah,
Allah Halima salah, there were people like a look on it. People who showed their continuous support,
it's not in Muslim. So how about you then you find people that are non Muslims, but they give their
support. There are people who are against Islam, but there are a lot of non Muslims who have given
their support people who have written numerous books, more books than you and I can do it
collectively. They have written so many books in support of Islam, in support of Islam. Those people
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:54
			are are our current and they have good volumes. These are the people who give support and stand they
right from the start. We see on Facebook that whenever a non Muslim, he says anything positive about
Islam, we began to share with everyone else. Because this is very rare. We don't find some examples
like this. But when we find these kind of examples, it brings it brings some happiness to us. Think
about the Promise of Allah while he was setting up. Besides other people who showed their support to
help so low it was set up later on, they may have become a saint, but we find that whatever we are
going through the point I'm making is whatever we are going through, we will find direct examples
		
00:13:54 --> 00:14:09
			within the Rasul Allah on amis. And then it's remember and let's reflect also on the Quran. Allah
Subhana Allah tells us in the beginning and similar uncovered Alif land mean a house even as a youth
Rahu in your own.
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:46
			Do you think that you will say I believe in Allah and you will not be tested, you will most
certainly be tested. This word I used and when he comes to a fitna like when there is a fitna that
is taking place, it becomes difficult to hold onto your Dean. Dean can easily slip out of your grip.
You have to hold on to your deed, we have to hold firmly onto our deen at that time in these kinds
of times, it takes with the result within ourselves. We have to become stronger in these times.
Allah is the Bacara he says I'm a simpleton.
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:50
			We all want to go to tender.
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:59
			We all want eternal bliss in the hereafter. We work hard for Jenna. Allah subhanho wa Taala is
telling us
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:08
			Do you think? Do you really think I'm gonna put an agenda that you will enter into Jana? Well I'm
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:36
			publikum and you will not experience with the people when before what they went through before you.
Allah subhana wa Tada then says mustard who will Benza Raul was with Zillow. They were afflicted
with severe poverty and ailments and they were so shaken. That even high failure hula Rasul until
the messenger will levena Harmon Houma
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:52
			la the believers around the messenger as they began to say, where is he helpful was behind or
whatnot. Were several brothers and sisters, we will always be tested. Yes, the Quran let's say, the
lad to ask Robert, husband, man, Allah.
		
00:15:53 --> 00:16:36
			Allah subhanaw taala will not put something upon us that is beyond our means. Whenever circumstances
and whether you're going through Allah is bringing this upon us because we do have the capacity to
go through this. We have to remain strong. When we look at the life of a celestial body we're
sending them despite all the sacrifices he went through the Sahaba went through, the children went
through, the women went through, they remain steadfast when we study about the sea of the Prophet
and we learn about shortly before that, how the Muslims were socially boycotted for three
consecutive years that I would call him caring for the Muslims. He told him I was I said that I want
		
00:16:36 --> 00:17:14
			you all to go to a place to go to a place outside schools close to Makkah little outside of Epcot
and stay there because there is protection for you over there. When the police he found out they
made a pact that all these Muslims are to be socially boycotted. These were Muslim that time for
three consecutive years. They had very less to eat. They were a part of everyone else. Women were
crying, children were crying out of hunger. This is one of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
he went through. This is what the Sahaba went through. Probably several All right, he was somebody
that he said.
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:18
			He said in the law,
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:21
			a Buddha
		
00:17:22 --> 00:17:28
			taught his two sons. I want you to go and divorce the two daughters
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:36
			brothers sisters, for any of you who are fathers and you have daughters
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:43
			you cannot bear the pain of your daughter dying Horst It hurts.
		
00:17:45 --> 00:18:17
			It hurts. It lives with you. Every single time you see your daughter it hurts. Think about my man
who's been learning a lot. And because he said that he got him in a lot his no one daughter and his
two daughters were divorced. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the Sahaba when we say that the
story of who was beloved with the Allah Tala is in what they went through a mapping Yes, and his
father and his mother what they went through
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:55
			this never shorter ground, they never fell down. They remained steadfast. They kept on calling to
Allah subhanho wa Taala respected brothers sisters, the question is that we in times like this, what
can we do? What can we do first of all is always remember that safety and protection is only in the
hands of Allah subhanaw taala no one can hurt you without the permission of Allah subhanho wa Taala
the promise of love it was similar to send a one time sitting with him Rob is no longer on he says
you have to love me or I look at him I mentioned this hadith on this member several times.
		
00:18:56 --> 00:19:35
			But in that hadith, what did he say? He says what Allah no unknown much the logo under OMA that Oh
ALLAH angel for all commission, yes, lonely and for over 11 Shaman productive a whole lot of love,
that everyone will get together and they will try to benefit one person, Allah does not want that
person to be benefited. These people cannot benefit that person. On the other hand, if everyone gets
together and they try to harm one person, but Allah wants to protect that person, there is no one
who can harm that person because Allah is his protector. So how about when you look when you only
reflect on the story of fit owners, and Musashi is the here all the children are to be killed? That
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:59
			was the year the year that children are not to be to or were not to be killed? That is the your
handwriting son was born. The year all the general RGB killed, that's the year musante his son was
born Musala his son grew up right under the nose of Finn. Oh my God, Allah make this happen. Because
Allah Subhana Allah is Allah. Allah subhanaw taala is the protector and that is from whom he had to
seek protection. Allah subhanaw taala to protect us
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:39
			There's no one who can cause us any harm, unless it is the will of Allah subhana wa. So always
remember that even though we live in times like this, always ask Allah Subhana Allah Allah, always
remain firm, always remain firm, do not be, do not be intimidated, do not to keep that fear against
that kind of fear is going to be there. But you're not intimidated, we will continue to come close
to Allah subhanho wa taala. In times like this, people are divided into two groups. There are people
who come close to Allah subhanho wa taala. And there are people because of the intimidation and
because of fear, they go away and all of us are behind on with it. We have, you know, the brothers,
		
00:20:39 --> 00:21:22
			we go out, we go out and we spend our life. And sometimes people can tell me that whether we are
muslim or non Muslim, but think our Gigaba our sisters, and I commend the sisters, I truly from the
bottom of my heart, I commend them, I have so much respect for the sisters, especially for those
sisters who go out every single day. With the hijab on people can see that this is a this is a
Muslim woman. And yet because of the current circumstances, this has not deterred them away. Well
what's behind with Allah, this has gotten taken away from us behind what, in fact, our system has
become even more stronger. I pray to Allah that Allah protects our brothers and sisters. But Allah
		
00:21:22 --> 00:22:01
			subhanho wa Taala protects all our brothers sisters around the entire world. And may it may make you
know we ALLAH SubhanA protective have any kind of shut in evil, but I commend the sister Gulai
because they go out and protest every single day. People see now we will stare at them. There have
been so many experiments, where of non Muslims, they wear the hijab, and they walk on the street and
everyone is staring at them. You know how difficult that is? Yet our sister they continue to do
this. So in times like this, this all make logical must have a hideaway God and that has continued
to come close to Allah subhanho wa Taala let these currents Concur on current circumstances, not
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:45
			take us away from Allah will bring us closer to Allah. And remember in every single era of Islam and
Muslims, in every single era of Assam Muslims, Muslims are tested in different ways. Muslims are
going to be tested, whether it is today, whether it's tomorrow, whether it was in the past, there's
always some time that we will be tested, we will be tested. And when you look at the lack of
resources, he was tested, but he came up on the other hand, he came up, came out on the other hand,
and he was successful. He came up with a loss of 100 to Allah. Allah put Ibrahim Alyansa through
many tests, but he passed all of them with flying colors. We are being tested. We remain steadfast
		
00:22:45 --> 00:23:26
			and mashallah they help Allah subhanho wa Taala welcome. Like when Allah says in the Quran, Allah in
the nest will likely show the help of ALLAH SubhanA welcome. Yes, we'll have Islamophobes they have
a job to do. And their job is to continuously spread hate, they will continuously spread hate, they
will spend billions of dollars to do that. But guess what, my suitor brothers sisters always
remember they had a billion dollars but you know what we have? We have Allah subhanaw taala we have
Allah subhanho wa Taala the help of Allah will trump everything that they do, we have to come back
to Allah subhanho wa Taala if we hold on to Allah, Allah will help us we have to come back to Allah
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:41
			subhanaw taala May Allah Subhana Allah protect us may Allah subhanaw Give us the ability to as a
congressman send her the law now when it comes to I'll leave when I find out what we have to do with
a suffering Allah He welcome we're excited this year first off you know in the home
		
00:23:49 --> 00:23:49
			and have dinner
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:54
			last night on when I stopped for me let me show in person I mean yeah,
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:55
			we may do
		
00:23:57 --> 00:23:58
			wants to know
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:00
			what's going on.
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:10
			Oh my god. Oh god, the Vatican with Tamala G was for fun. I mean, in the English apology industry
Love Your Work man. We're here in Omaha.
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:25
			You on he was sitting with the steamer alongside Yala, Hamid Wilder and Hamlet called something
called over him Allah had invited him to come in to Medina of Africa 100 water and Hamlet going on
with Carla Ibrahim, Ibrahim and
		
00:24:27 --> 00:24:59
			recenter brothers sisters, as I told you, and as I mentioned that we should not let this fear
intimidation take over us continuously come on to Allah subhanho wa Taala but at the same time, at
the same time, we make it very clear, we should always be vigilant, we should always be careful. A
Muslim is always careful. A Muslim is always aware of their surroundings when they follow the Allah
lot that it was sent. On behalf of colossal love it was in the trenches to go and find out what are
the plans of the performance of the place when he
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:41
			went there, when he went there. At that time, the leader of the branch was sitting there and he
said, It looks like there is someone amongst us who is normally amongst us. So I want you to grab
the hand of the other and ask their name. Before anyone could grab the hammer for labor for the
Allah that He grabbed the hat on someone else, he says who aren't you? A Muslim is very vigilant. A
Muslim is very careful. He's very aware of his surroundings, as as the chief of the police
mentioned. And not only that, Karen mentioned, if you find if you send any kind of aid, if you send
anything that is related to hate, or your life to be in danger, it is our job to report it, it is
		
00:25:41 --> 00:26:22
			our job to make other people aware. And this is and hopefully Inshallah, slowly gradually if we do
everything we have to do, then inshallah ALLAH SubhanA wa change our circumstances to show up, these
circumstances have come from Allah, and it is only Allah who can remove these, these, this
negativity. So this is one this is one thing first of all I want to mention, before we end up about
two more things I want to mention number two is tomorrow is Valentine's Day. I talked about this
last year at the same as I kind of talked about this. Now what is the origins of Valentine's Day,
receptor Brothers Sisters, we don't need a day to give a cardiac or a gift to our wife to show them
		
00:26:22 --> 00:27:06
			our love. Promise Allah Islam says in Hadith, the * do the hustle, exchange gifts this whole
inshallah increase in your love, we shouldn't exchange gifts, we should give gifts to each other.
But at the same time, let us remember that this day has come from a Roman paganistic ritual and
practice where women were victimized, women were degraded. And women were dehumanized. We cannot do
these kind of things. We have respect for our mothers and our sisters, we should continue to give
them give them a time of the year. But if we remember if we begin to engage in these kind of
practices, then this is the downfall. This is the downfall because this is what Shavon does. He
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:43
			brings one practice after another one practice after another that if we continue to do this now that
our upcoming generations, they will think this is part of this, and they will do it. I'm not saying
don't give gifts, give gifts. The 100 100 get gifts. But there are different there are times
throughout the entire year you can give a gift. When they say Mother's Day we don't need Mother's
Day to to show our respect and love to our mothers, when they say Father's Day, we don't need a day
during the year to show our love and respect to our fathers. We are supposed to do this every single
day, which was every single day. And last thing I just wanted to remind all of you in sha Allah,
		
00:27:43 --> 00:28:27
			that resetter Brothers Sisters, we have a very big event coming up, we have a huge event coming up.
Before I explained that event I want to give you I want to share with you an example an analogy.
When you plant a tree, there are three main components that are needed to plant a tree. You need a
seed, you need sunlight, water and soil. Once you put the seeds in there, you need healthy soil, you
need water and you need sunlight in order to keep that high surviving. Once again here are three
same things you need the soil, you need water in sandwich, research brothers sisters, our fundraiser
event is coming up. And how can we be sure to this point through your eyes and through your
		
00:28:27 --> 00:29:03
			donations. We only showed up cross our finishing line through the same two things with your to us
would have a loss of 100 with the IRA and with your donations and your contribution tries to make
sure you put this on your calendar inshallah I want to see all of you there, give whatever you can,
if you cannot give please make while Allah subhanho wa Taala because we need to help us have 100
with more than our relations we do need to have Allah subhanho wa Taala we can collect wherever we
want. But if the wish of Allah is out there, if the help Allah is out there, we cannot do anything.
We need to help align everything with Allah with us at every single step before we think it's
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:37
			definitely Allah after meticulous that we know Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah should be at the core
