Allah

in the name of Allah most Gracious most Merciful. All praise is due

to our creator or cherishing or nourishing our Sustainer we bear

witness there's none worthy of worship but Allah will be a

witness. We believe in all the prophets who came in the great

line of divine And we bear witness Prophet Muhammad Ali Abdullah

Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa he was happy he was one of them, is

the final of all the emissaries of Allah.

Allah ma for Quran,

principals, teachers, elders, brothers and sisters, to Spirit

youth agreed to the Islamic universal greeting of peace. May

the peace the mercy and the blessings of Allah be upon each

and everyone present. A Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato

Hamdulillah. We are followers of a comprehensive way of life. A demon

shaman, didn't come,

brought to comprehensive fruition by the final final messenger to

determine the been Muhammad Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa

sallam who conveyed to humanity a well preserved revelation, a

revelation for humanity at large as a huddled in us until the end

of time.

Islam that way of life seeks to attract the hearts and minds of

people towards the truth.

He does this by means of reasoning, by good moral example,

the emphasizing of Justice, the universal applicability of its

ethos and the natural beauty of his principles. And all muslims or

muslims are repeat. All Muslims are members of the human family,

which are the best of creation.

Acts Anita cream is Allah says, and each human being by virtue of

being knew of a human being human being is considered as honorable

welcome Lavinia Adam

was in that

bond of family, the family of humanity, they exist the

fraternity of believers. But Allah The first was,

in the verses of the Quran was an example, who are bound by the

ideology of Islam,

a philosophy a religion, a way of life,

which leads culmination in the mission of Rasulullah, but which

in essence, in principle, was perpetuated and passed on to us

throughout the history by all the prophets in essence, it reach,

culmination and fruition in the mission of Rasulullah sallallahu

wasallam. But all the prophets in essence, told the fundamentals of

the very same faith.

So Rasul Allah did not start Islam, but rather brought it to

comprehensive fruition by receiving the last revelation as

he was the last in the line of prophets and remains the example

until the end of time. So we as the Ummah, as the whole,

constitute a global community of faith, a community that transcends

the barriers of race, that transcends the barriers of

nationality, of color, of language, of gender, of ethnicity,

of culture, and of time.

And not only that, we are supposed to be an American, wider

a single global community, by bound by the larger principles of

our faith.

We were never intended to be a community divided on end due to

our differences which have existed which do exist and which will

continue to exist. And therefore Allah says in Surah Surah, in

the believing fertility the believing people, they are the

believers as a whole or a fertility.

Firstly obey now where you can

make extra money, conciliation. Now you can't reconcile unless you

have differences. If you are at idle, as they say in law of the

same mind, there's nothing to reconcile you only reconcile,

which is reconcilable, you can only reconcile, which is

reconcilable even in Islamic law and in Roman Dutch law, when this

irretrievable breakdown for example, in the marriage is

irreconcilability, then you go apart, but you reconcile with

reconciliation is possible and the groundwork in the framework is

there for it. So in the middle, we know Firstly,

make reconciliation within that fraternity. What the hula hula on

the moon and be ever conscious of Allah, ever dutiful to Allah.

And be fully aware that if you do so that you may be graced with his

abundant and eternal mercy.

So the Ummah

is distinguished by being followers of Prophet Muhammad

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in abiding by the Quran is a final

revelation, and the general principles of our faith.

The OMA is distinguished by what we share and what we agreed upon

regarding the fundamentals of our faith.

The Ummah is not distinguished, by the way we differ among ourselves

on secondary issues. Hence the admonition in the Quran, to be

cautious, not to create division and allow for the fragmentation of

people of faith.

We will never intended to be a community bogged down in

disputations and discord.

In fact, the overarching attitude and advice of the Prophet

sallallahu alayhi wasallam, which comes across in numerous

tradition,

method, meaning if Etowah him the one I mentioned at the beginning

of the talk, the solidarity of believers in the mutual love

in their mercy and sympathy. Is that, like your body is an organ

or any part of the body aches, the rest of the body sympathizes with

it. It's a sleeplessness and fever.

So as Muslims, we acknowledge that all those considered as part of

the Islamic faith by the vast majority of Muslims

throughout history will be treated by Muslims as Muslims. And we

acknowledge the fact that differences there are differences

they have been and differences, they will continue to be.

But the person does not overtly

deny the fundamentals of our faith. Such a person is deemed our

brother and our sustained faith without prejudice.

We can hold no such person under suspicion.

Since we have been commanded in the same Surah avoid suspicion, eg

Stoneybrook has been in the back of one, avoid much of suspicion,

for some suspicion himself can be lie.

We are obligated to honor people with a duty of a muslim taking

seriously the injunction of the rasool Allah Allah Salam Hadith

documented the muster of Imam Muhammad the humble as well as a

Muslim Muslim women Saleemul Muslim woman discern the way the

Muslim is that person from his words and deeds all other Muslims

are safe. Well minimal I mean, who knows him while I'm while him

unfussy him and then what Bill is everyone in whom humanity at

large, even beyond the Muslim find safety and security regarding the

life the honor and the property? Thus no Muslim should find any

excuse to wantonly make any Muslim individual or group irrespective

of the school of thought, the deliberate subject of attack, or

the focus of unwarranted negative attention.

The positive attitude of a Muslim towards another is encapsulated in

the prophetic guidance as a Muslim a whole Muslim lie of him who

while I have lived who was through a toque, Hula, hula

the has been the minister, a young, Muslim, cultural Muslim or

Muslim haram on the Mohammed who Hadith in the masjid of Imam

Muhammad, humble, and Muslim is a brother of another Muslim, he

neither oppressing nor humiliating, nor looks down upon

him, and piety is here. And there also said Allah who is, according

to this report, pointed three times to his heart. It is a

serious evil for a Muslim, that he should look down upon his fellow

Muslim, or things of a Muslim, inviolable

For his birthday faith, his blood, his wealth, and his integrity for

his

lasting harmony and understanding starts from within the community.

And then that could spread the same respect towards those beyond

our immediate community. How would How would other people take a

community seriously, which must understand components of itself,

and thereby sometimes misrepresenting each other? We

should recognize that is submitting to Allah. Building a

whole sub and harmonious wholesome community is one of our primary

objectives. We should confirm the importance of promoting a culture

of dialogue within our faith community. Allah calls upon the Al

Kitab. Among the Christians with element of shitcan they believe.

It doesn't mean we agree with the views, but it has an approach, an

ecumenical approach of openness of inviting of engaging despite a

distinct element of Schick among the Christians who are considered

closest to us, according to the Quran, despite the belief being so

distant from us, as far as the hate is concerned. So we should

affirm the importance of listening to and learning from differing

perspectives. We should attempt to explain our own perspective and do

so in a more dignified manner, intelligible and in offensive.

We are concerned globally about the rising tide of fanaticism. And

sometimes we have to answer for the fanaticism of other people as

if it emanates from our faith.

We are concerned about the rising tide of fanaticism, the

preponderance of violence in the name of our faith, growing

interfaith resentment, increasing interfaith intolerance.

And this,

to me somewhat signifies a substantial departure from the

revered path of what's the theme of moderation.

I advise myself

and all of us Inshallah, that we affirm the importance of listening

to differing views, learning from other perspectives, so that we can

value Islamic plurality as a factor that enriches our

communities, as he has done throughout history. We should

commit ourselves to engage in dialogue when necessary and

possible with sincerity and patience, and such engagement

should not be with anger and discusses discourtesy

and without considering those things that dif that we differ

about as insurmountable barriers to our our brotherhood

infertility.

You see, our identities Islam

because we are too caught up in Salafi and Sufi and Sunni and chi

and Barelvi and Deobandi, we somehow lose be all of that no

problem with being calling yourself whatever you call

yourself and justifying why you are Salafi and why sooner to call

yourself. Defer to Salah for soon, whatever you call ourselves,

whatever be be what you be sent me couta is Allah my bosses? But

armacell Man Do you to say you'd be home in his RV or have a hobby

or some Eco Ciabatta? You're all of these things, but show me Are

you muslim as well? If you were you would have no barrier to

finding a Muslim as your brother Muslim. Because you emphasize your

culture, or your mother or your then you find people I'm a Sufi,

no problem, by definition that you have the problem with the Salafi

or whatever it may be. It shouldn't be like that. It's

almost camps by brother, Muslim brother raise a Sufi or Salafi

whether it's salami standing or sitting doesn't matter.

I may defer I will discuss it we'll debate

and argue we have to go out there and belittle him because of our

differences. We are so fragmented, over 10 million Muslims have left

Muslim land to go to so called Cousar lands for safety and

security while the Muslim world watches by.

This is the time for us to get involved in secondary says the

house is burning.

And we worried about the menu that you're serving for supper.

So

our identity is Islam. Our allegiance is to Allah. Our guide

is the Quran, our leaders, the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi

wa sallam, every Muslim brother, who's considered Muslim by the

consensus. I don't mean people who are deviant people who come with a

new faith. I'm saying Muslims have been considered as Muslims

throughout history, but a large majority of scholars, every Muslim

is my brother, and every human being my family, and the whole of

the universe is my responsibility. That's how a global citizen things

we have to take a holistic look and the foundational message of

the

Quran the foundational message, the exemplary lessons taught by

the Rasul Allah, Allah He, he was Harvey was in the essential moral

priorities of the individual believer and the ethical

parameters that universally guide believers in interacting with

among themselves and with others. We come from a tradition with an

associate,

Muslim, a young fella he never knew the it's not halal. Basically

put it bluntly, it is haram for you to even look at your brother.

Look at him was the look that he finds displeasing, even if you

didn't intend it is haram for you to look at your brother, what's

the look that you find just pleasing? How five we deviated

from that? How much you know implementing at the expense of so

much other sunnah, sunnah,

supposedly, so ours is the religion of peace is always said

the culture of violence. I was the philosophy of love, not an

attitude of hate. Our Deen started a civilization. There's something

which I said of boast or even above my faith. It's a historical

reality. In fact,

our deal started a civilization which sparked the Renaissance.

It's not a doctrine that promotes destruction. Ours is a faith of

inclusivity that embrace the Al Kitab not a narrow minded theology

that excommunicate its own people.

We should I believe,

be committed not to wantonly make any Muslim individual or group the

target

of our tax. If there are differences that speak

if people highlight things a cause problem,

engage and try to neutralize that. But we ask Allah to protect us

from those who make the universal ever relevant Islam, a cause of

major conflict by by infighting over insignificant issues, who

turn minor points of difference into major ideological conflicts,

said you all have this in the name of Islam. And as always remind

ourselves, we are weakened bow divisions, and our enemies are

strengthened by our disunity.

It is in the greater interest of our Ummah, specifically at this

crucial and perilous stage of our history. It is in the interest of

the Ummah, to foster and promote conciliation, not agitation to

promote calmness, not incitement to promote friendship, hostility,

let's focus on what unites us rather than harping on what

divides us, because we are weakened by these

kind of engagements much strengthened by it. Let us purge

ourselves from grudges and suspicion. Let's not become

reckless, not that any of us may be of any political forces of

outside influences when something happens in some part of the world.

Suddenly we get fighting over murder because some financial

somewhere else may be involved in something and now we jump at their

best. I don't see it happening. I'm just saying it happens in some

parts of the world,

ourselves from grudges and suspicion.

Let us purge ourselves from grudges and suspicion, find ways

and occasions for elevating rancor and hatred, to time for the new

kindness

to near ones in D ones amongst ourselves and the fostering of

love for those of our faith. That's also Allahu alayhi wasallam

one said,

Shall I inform you

about that? Which is better than degree than prayer and fasting and

charity? To Dr. Silva tell us what is it? It's laughable that a lot

of miracle of the mean directly crme was

shall inform you. Well, I will tell us, Islam for that has been

reconciliation. Because

chaos among yourself. Alienation among yourself. fighting amongst

yourself is like cutting your own throat. We are always encouraged

to work towards a resolution rather than dissolution. For

soulful reconciliation is always best Akula call Jada was the
