00:00:05 -->
00:00:13
At the golf isn't just physical. This is why we can be in Africa and yet have no Africa whatsoever.
00:00:14 -->
00:00:17
Hmm. People are in the masjid.
00:00:19 -->
00:00:26
They're in the masjid of Allah in the final 10 days of Ramadan. They are in the sacred state of
Attica.
00:00:28 -->
00:00:39
Let's speak of ourselves a laugh a bit, but I be in the masjid in the final 10 days of Ramadan in
Africa within intention of sooner Hezekiah
00:00:40 -->
00:00:43
planning to stay for the whole 10 days and never leaving the mustard
00:00:45 -->
00:00:57
and fasting in those 10 days. So a dual Attica, the attic off of the masjid, the attic are for
fasting, they have the Gulf state of fasting. I'm in seclusion, I'm supposedly in retreat from the
world.
00:00:58 -->
00:01:06
And yet there I am sitting on my smartphone, surfing the net. I'm not saying it's wrong.
00:01:07 -->
00:01:13
I'm just saying that I can be in the Gulf and you're not being etica. I'm surfing the net.
00:01:16 -->
00:01:18
I'm attached to the world.
00:01:22 -->
00:01:25
I don't, but I could be reading gossip,
00:01:28 -->
00:01:31
vain, worldly news,
00:01:33 -->
00:01:34
irrelevant things.
00:01:36 -->
00:01:39
And then having finished from my browsing session,
00:01:41 -->
00:01:44
I could then have a friend sit next to me.
00:01:46 -->
00:01:50
And whilst being in the Attica, secluded inside a tent,
00:01:52 -->
00:02:01
I could be engaged in conversation with another person in Africa, in the masjid in the state of fast
both of us backbiting someone else
00:02:02 -->
00:02:05
and engaging in the verbal sin of backbiting.
00:02:09 -->
00:02:19
And so, I am in the center of the machine, maybe right next to the member and then we'll suddenly on
the subject of the man. Maybe I am the Mr.
00:02:21 -->
00:02:22
I am the email.
00:02:25 -->
00:02:27
I've just finished leading salah
00:02:28 -->
00:02:32
and I'm in my tent, surrounded by students.
00:02:35 -->
00:03:02
And I'm engaged in backbone, Panama, I could be in Africa and yet have no Africa. Because at the
golf isn't just a physical state. It's a mental state. It's an emotional state. It's a spiritual
state. The real meaning of Attica, not just inside the machine is a retreat from the whole world.
Just as a sort of muscle alarm, it retreated from the dunya.
00:03:03 -->
00:03:24
You have to detach yourself from the physical world to tap into that spiritual and it has to be a
complete break. It's like going from one room to another one world to another one realm to another
one complete state to another. You can't have your feet in both places at the same time.
