			and incidents in and around the
lives of the prophets Peace be
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:13
			upon all of them. Incidents
gathered from the book of Allah.
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:19
			Be no who was a man who Allah had
blessed with an extended life.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:24
			And he spent numerous years
preaching the message of Allah.
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:28
			Yet, he only had a handful of
followers
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:33
			that we know he's one of your
loved one of the five foremost
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			human beings to have ever lived.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:41
			And an entire chapter recited this
evening, an entire chapter in the
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			Holy Quran is titled Surah Noor.
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49
			Now, when we consider the accounts
of Nicaea, you know, are they
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:54
			Salam in the Quran, we get so much
guidance from his life,
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:59
			and to access some of the
innumerable lessons that we learn
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:02
			from the life of this great
Prophet, peace be upon him. And of
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:07
			those around him. We focused on
two dimensions of his life, his
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:09
			mission, and his household.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			As for his mission,
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:17
			he conveyed his message in basic
terms, which could easily be
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:18
			understood by all.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:26
			He preached in private and in
public. He engaged the layman as
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:31
			well as the leaders, political or
community leaders. He continued
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:35
			preaching, even though he had a
very few followers.
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:42
			And when there was an impending
flood, he built an ark, to reach
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:42
			safety.
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:50
			Each of those points is a story on
its own, a lesson in detail. But
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:55
			nonetheless, from all of these, we
deduce outstanding lessons in
		
00:02:55 --> 00:03:01
			productivity from Allah, you Salah
one, in conveying his message in a
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:02
			basic way,
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:07
			in a way that everyone can can
comprehend it. He kept it simple.
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:12
			In preaching private and in
public, he diversified his
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:18
			approach and engaged in the
leaders amongst the people. He
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:23
			rationalized that if he if people
in power, if the people who were
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:26
			in power were amenable to the
message, then they can influence
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:31
			other people to be more receptive
of that message. Or at least he
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:36
			could neutralize the negativity by
engaging them. So he employed what
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			we call positive tactics.
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:43
			Despite preaching for a very, very
long time, more than all the
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:47
			prophets perhaps combined, that we
know of in the Quran, he did not
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:51
			read the lack of number of
followers detract him from his
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:57
			task, he realized the fact we're
Marlena ELO Bulaga mobian. That
		
00:03:57 --> 00:04:00
			job was merely to convey the
message to be an example for
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:03
			people to follow or not. That's
their choice. In other words, he
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:05
			kept focused on his mission.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:10
			And when there was an approaching
flood, he did not wait for the
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:14
			flood to come before he acted. He
prepared for it by building an ark
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:20
			to save as many people and animals
as possible. This shows strategic
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:25
			planning and brings to attention
the fact that planning can help us
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:28
			in the sense that though you
cannot change the past, you can
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:31
			prepare for the future. So when
you keep these points in mind, he
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:36
			kept it simple. The best
diversified his approach, use
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:41
			positive tactic kept his focus and
planned strategically.
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:46
			Another dimension that you can
look at, from which you can learn
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:51
			tremendous lessons is the
household of nabina Allah Islam.
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:54
			Now if you reflect upon the
Stories of the Prophets in their
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:56
			households that are documented in
the Quran
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			Allah mentions for example,
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			weatherable Allah Huma says in
Medina Amanullah interferon is
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:07
			called probability and the Cabezon
field Jannetty when a genie for
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:11
			our family when a genie mineral
called me volley mean, well now
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:15
			remember that the acid that
follows from the fact Nafi him it
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:20
			was Kalamata Robbia what could to
be what can be done ethical
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:20
			quality?
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:22
			These are two
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:25
			personalities referred to in the
Quran.
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:30
			The Quran highlights the
outstanding, courageous and
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:34
			principled stand of say the ossia,
the wife of the Pharaoh, who
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:38
			brought up Prophet Lusardi salaam,
and who herself believed in the
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:43
			truth, and she brought him up and
nurtured him that prophet in the
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:44
			house of the federal.
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:50
			Allah also testifies to the
nobility and the purity of the
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:54
			resolute and determined Seder
Maryam, the mother of a Sally
		
00:05:54 --> 00:06:00
			salon, who boldly presented
herself to society, a society that
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:05
			questioned her chastity and her
integrity. So both Asya and Miriam
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:10
			have had prophets in their own
Meriam son was a prophet. And Asya
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:14
			had a person she brought up in the
House who was a prophet. So both
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:18
			asiyah and Meriam had prophets in
their homes, and both were in
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:23
			social environments that were
negative towards them, yet they
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:28
			were true believers, as well as
both of them were embodiments of
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:33
			righteousness and of piety. Now
contrast that with the House of
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:34
			Lords Malasana
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:41
			in the house, who gave us a guide
to his people, his own life in his
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:46
			own house, just like the wife of
Libby looked at a salon did not
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:50
			accept the message. And Allah
makes reference to that also in
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:53
			the Quran, what about bearable
Allah who must suddenly Lavina
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:58
			Cafaro Murata? No one were
absolute QA but anything I
		
00:06:58 --> 00:07:01
			bardenas all the for her Anita
Houma phenom.
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:08
			Allah He and Allah provides for us
an example of the wife of me and
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:09
			the wife of Luke are they
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:11
			both were married
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:16
			to two of our righteous servers.
These women were married to two of
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:18
			our righteous servant whom they
betrayed.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:23
			And the fact that they were made
to these two righteous levels,
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:26
			these two prophets did not benefit
these two women.
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:33
			The lesson for us is how some some
search for the truth and some
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:37
			recognize the truth and defend the
truth. Despite tremendous
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:42
			challenges like Asya and Maria
malema, Salah, and me are those to
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:46
			whom truth comes to the house
within their house and they still
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:50
			do not embrace it. Some scary
reality in the face, and they
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:51
			still deny it.
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:56
			So we pray the prayer for Beloved
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:07:56 --> 00:08:01
			salam, to make us of those who are
inclined towards the way of ASEA
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:07
			and Maria and not to be of those
who are inclined towards the wife
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:12
			of Ruth and new Halima Salaam.
Those who saw reality who were
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:16
			prophet who came into their home
in yet they denied it. So the dua
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:19
			of Rasul Allah who Allah wa salam
alaikum
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:28
			wa Baltierra bow tillow What
zuccon ht Inaba, Allah, let us see
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:33
			as it is, and grant us the
capacity to follow what is right.
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:37
			Oh Allah, let us recognize
falsehood and wrong for what it
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:43
			is, and grant has the capacity to
avoid it. A cola cola the worst of
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:46
			it Allah wa salam aleikum wa
rahmatullah.
