My dear brothers and sisters. May

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

Allah bless us with the best in this

00:00:15 --> 00:00:16

world and the next.

00:00:17 --> 00:00:19

My name is Saif Murad. I'm from Toronto,

00:00:19 --> 00:00:21

currently studying at the University of Medina, Alhamdulillah.

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

I did my bachelor's in Sharia,

00:00:24 --> 00:00:27

which is Islamic Jewish students. And I'm currently

00:00:27 --> 00:00:29

finishing off my master's in educational

00:00:30 --> 00:00:30

administration,

00:00:30 --> 00:00:33

and I'm writing my thesis on educational

00:00:33 --> 00:00:34

leadership.

00:00:34 --> 00:00:37

I really enjoy the field of leadership and

00:00:37 --> 00:00:39

personal development. And the more you read about

00:00:39 --> 00:00:40

personal development,

00:00:40 --> 00:00:42

eventually you come to a point where you

00:00:42 --> 00:00:45

notice that things are being repeated. That is

00:00:45 --> 00:00:46

the same principle

00:00:46 --> 00:00:49

over and over, just packaged in a different

00:00:49 --> 00:00:51

way. But the amazing thing is

00:00:51 --> 00:00:53

every principle that is of benefit

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

is found

00:00:55 --> 00:00:57

in our religion, is found in the Quran

00:00:57 --> 00:01:00

and the sunnah. Quran came to guide us

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

towards the best, the best in this world

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04

and the next. And even when it comes

00:01:04 --> 00:01:05

to leadership, every leadership

00:01:06 --> 00:01:08

quality, the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam had

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

it. So what exactly is isn't it time?

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

Isn't it time is inspired by 2 verses

00:01:14 --> 00:01:15

from the Quran.

00:01:15 --> 00:01:16

The first one is,

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32

Isn't it time for the believers for their

00:01:32 --> 00:01:34

hearts to submit to the remembrance of Allah

00:01:35 --> 00:01:37

and that which was revealed from the truth,

00:01:37 --> 00:01:38

the Quran.

00:01:38 --> 00:01:41

Isn't it time for us to strive towards

00:01:41 --> 00:01:43

excellence? Isn't it time for us as believers

00:01:43 --> 00:01:46

to pay attention to the Quran, to implement

00:01:46 --> 00:01:48

the Quran, to learn the Quran?

00:01:48 --> 00:01:51

Every principle, everything that is of benefit, everything

00:01:51 --> 00:01:53

that we need to succeed is found in

00:01:53 --> 00:01:55

the Quran and the sunnah. Not to just

00:01:55 --> 00:01:58

make it to paradise, but to also succeed

00:01:58 --> 00:01:59

in this world. But we need to give

00:01:59 --> 00:02:01

the Quran and the sunnah the time of

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

day to be able to understand these principles

00:02:03 --> 00:02:05

and implement it into our lives. And the

00:02:05 --> 00:02:06

second

00:02:10 --> 00:02:11

verse

00:02:17 --> 00:02:19

is That Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will not

00:02:19 --> 00:02:22

change the state of the nation unless they

00:02:22 --> 00:02:23

change themselves first.

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26

We need to be the ones to take

00:02:26 --> 00:02:28

action. We need to take the first step.

00:02:28 --> 00:02:30

We can't expect change to happen if we

00:02:30 --> 00:02:32

don't wanna do anything about it. Change is

00:02:32 --> 00:02:33

scary sometimes. It's difficult.

00:02:34 --> 00:02:36

But if we take the first steps, if

00:02:36 --> 00:02:38

we have a clear vision of where we're

00:02:38 --> 00:02:39

trying to go, and we take the first

00:02:39 --> 00:02:40

step, Allah will

00:02:41 --> 00:02:43

help us. And another reason why I created

00:02:43 --> 00:02:46

this channel is growing up in Canada, you

00:02:46 --> 00:02:48

know, I went through my own struggles as

00:02:48 --> 00:02:48

a Muslim.

00:02:49 --> 00:02:50

And this is my own opinion, but many

00:02:50 --> 00:02:53

times when you attend lectures and conferences,

00:02:53 --> 00:02:54

you get inspired,

00:02:55 --> 00:02:56

but you have no idea where to start.

00:02:57 --> 00:02:59

They give you the end result, but nobody

00:02:59 --> 00:03:00

tells you what's step 1, 2, and 3.

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

And once again, this is my own opinion

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

based on my own experiences

00:03:04 --> 00:03:06

that we focus too much on theory, and

00:03:06 --> 00:03:09

theory is extremely important. But there's another aspect

00:03:09 --> 00:03:11

that we're neglecting which is the practical side,

00:03:11 --> 00:03:14

the implementation side of Islam. The Sahaba became

00:03:14 --> 00:03:16

who they were because of implementation,

00:03:17 --> 00:03:19

because of faith, because of learning, and they

00:03:19 --> 00:03:20

acted upon that knowledge.

00:03:21 --> 00:03:22

So we're trying to approach

00:03:23 --> 00:03:25

the principles of the Quran and Sunnah from

00:03:25 --> 00:03:27

a practical standpoint. That not only do we

00:03:27 --> 00:03:29

understand what it is, but at the same

00:03:29 --> 00:03:30

time we try to implement it in our

00:03:30 --> 00:03:31

lives

00:03:31 --> 00:03:33

to get closer to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:03:33 --> 00:03:35

to build our lives in this world and

00:03:35 --> 00:03:37

the next. This is the main reasons for

00:03:37 --> 00:03:39

why I started this channel. I invite every

00:03:39 --> 00:03:41

single one of you to come and be

00:03:41 --> 00:03:43

a part of this channel as well

00:03:43 --> 00:03:45

by subscribing, commenting,

00:03:45 --> 00:03:47

if you find it beneficial to share with

00:03:47 --> 00:03:50

other people. Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam said

00:03:50 --> 00:03:52

that the one who guides towards good gets

00:03:52 --> 00:03:53

the same reward as the one who did

00:03:53 --> 00:03:56

it. So imagine sharing with your friends and

00:03:56 --> 00:03:58

family and they act upon it, then you

00:03:58 --> 00:04:01

get the reward for them acting upon it

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

without without them losing anything.

00:04:04 --> 00:04:06

So it's a very easy way to get

00:04:06 --> 00:04:08

good deed. I ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:04:08 --> 00:04:10

to bless this project and to bless every

00:04:10 --> 00:04:12

single one of you, and I'll see you

00:04:12 --> 00:04:12

next time.
