To strengthen people.

00:00:02 --> 00:00:03

Allah

00:00:03 --> 00:00:05

says or sorry, the hadith. The hadith of

00:00:05 --> 00:00:06

the prophet says,

00:00:07 --> 00:00:10

whoever is humiliated before a believer and does

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12

not help him when he's able to do

00:00:12 --> 00:00:13

so,

00:00:13 --> 00:00:15

Allah will humiliate him

00:00:16 --> 00:00:18

before the creation on the day of judgment.

00:00:22 --> 00:00:23

So when I think about all what we

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25

learned, they do all these trainings about bullying,

00:00:26 --> 00:00:28

about bystanders and upstanders.

00:00:29 --> 00:00:31

But when you see something happening to a

00:00:31 --> 00:00:32

person in front of you,

00:00:32 --> 00:00:33

you should

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

in your capacity help and not allow the

00:00:36 --> 00:00:38

bullying or the abuse or whatever it is

00:00:38 --> 00:00:40

to continue happening. All of these trainings, and

00:00:40 --> 00:00:41

I think to myself

00:00:42 --> 00:00:43

here's the hadith

00:00:45 --> 00:00:47

over 1400 years ago

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

saying exactly that. Do not allow your brother

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

or sister to be there humiliated and you

00:00:51 --> 00:00:52

don't help.

00:00:53 --> 00:00:54

It's a command.

00:00:55 --> 00:00:56

Do you know what I mean? We don't

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58

need some training to tell us, oh, that's

00:00:58 --> 00:00:59

the good thing to do, here's the research

00:00:59 --> 00:01:00

behind it.

00:01:01 --> 00:01:02

It's directly from our sunnah,

00:01:03 --> 00:01:04

our beloved prophet.
