Sajid Ahmed Umar – His Last Advice for the Ummah

			This type of opportunity may not come back
		

			to you again.
		

			So, definitely...
		

			Take advantage when you get it.
		

			Exactly.
		

			Grab it with both hands.
		

			Grab it with both hands.
		

			When it comes your way and...
		

			Before your health situation turns.
		

			Before your financial situation turns.
		

			Before death arrives.
		

			Exactly.
		

			You always would say one thing, I would
		

			always remember.
		

			You would say, Sheikh, when will we get
		

			the opportunity?
		

			And you were very healthy when you used
		

			to say that, subhanAllah.
		

			SubhanAllah.
		

			May Allah reward you in full.
		

			And grant for you nothing but Al-Firdos.
		

			Without any punishment and accountability.
		

			Ameen.
		

			Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Rahim.
		

			Alhamdulillah, we have our brother, our hero.
		

			MashaAllah, the Haroon of the Ummah, Muhammad salallahu
		

			alayhi wa sallam.
		

			Our brother Azhar here.
		

			How are you, my brother?
		

			Alhamdulillah.
		

			Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
		

			Waalaikumussalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
		

			Whatever Allah does, He does good.
		

			Definitely.
		

			Allah grant you a beautiful patience.
		

			He's granted you a beautiful patience.
		

			And subhanAllah, it's been two years.
		

			And honestly, it's like you've lived 20 years
		

			in two years.
		

			May Allah reward you in full.
		

			And preserve you in His obedience.
		

			And grant for you nothing but Al-Firdos.
		

			Without any punishment and accountability.
		

			Ameen.
		

			My brother, you've been through a lot, subhanAllah.
		

			For the sake of Allah, and perhaps it
		

			will be Sadaqatul Jariah for you.
		

			That you leave behind some nasiha for the
		

			Ummah.
		

			I know you're tired, but very briefly.
		

			Alhamdulillah, for giving me this opportunity, Sheikh.
		

			Well, if I have to tell you one
		

			nasiha.
		

			Which is a uniform policy and rule with
		

			me, of course.
		

			Which I can share with you.
		

			Is that, you know, doing something good for
		

			the sake of Allah.
		

			So, normally you're on a journey of this
		

			nature.
		

			You never know how goodness can strike you.
		

			At which point and how it will happen.
		

			So, you've got to be prepared for anything
		

			and any circumstances.
		

			When I say goodness, for the sake of
		

			Allah.
		

			It doesn't mean that everything has to be
		

			financial.
		

			Or it doesn't have to be, you know,
		

			your time or wealth or money or anything.
		

			All sorts of things matter.
		

			But what matters most important thing is that,
		

			you know, when it comes to your way.
		

			So, it all depends on how you accept
		

			it with your both hands.
		

			We are human beings.
		

			We are being created with weaknesses.
		

			So, we normally tend to think the negative
		

			side of it.
		

			This is how shaitan puts things into perspective.
		

			If there is a financial, for example, in
		

			a local masjid fundraiser.
		

			Or some khair is happening in your community.
		

			Something good is happening.
		

			When this comes to you, comes your way.
		

			What happens is shaitan comes in between and
		

			then he whispers to you.
		

			He whispers to you the negative side of
		

			it.
		

			See the guys who come to you with
		

			this project and this, you know, what not.
		

			And shaitan tries to demoralize you from taking
		

			part.
		

			So, breaking this barrier is very important.
		

			Because having this barrier in place, you can
		

			never do something good.
		

			So, you have to break that whisper from
		

			shaitan, come out of it and then ask
		

			Allah's help.
		

			And once you have done that part, if
		

			you are capable of doing something, it can
		

			be even a penny, even a pound based
		

			on your capacity.
		

			Do whatever is good.
		

			Take the opportunity.
		

			Take the opportunity, that's right.
		

			If you can't do that, at least you
		

			give your time a little bit on the
		

			project.
		

			And maybe you, through your contacts, you might
		

			be able to draw some big help to
		

			the local community.
		

			And once your mind is set and you
		

			are happy to take on with the project,
		

			from that point onwards, carry on.
		

			Carry on.
		

			Put your trust in Allah.
		

			Definitely, put your trust in Allah and take
		

			the means.
		

			Because you never ever know, this type of
		

			opportunity may not come back to you again.
		

			So, definitely...
		

			Take advantage when you get it.
		

			Exactly.
		

			Grab it with both hands.
		

			Grab it with both hands when it comes
		

			your way.
		

			Before your health situation turns, before your financial
		

			situation turns, before death arrives.
		

			Exactly.
		

			You always would say one thing, I would
		

			always remember.
		

			You would say, Sheikh, when will we get
		

			the opportunity?
		

			And you were very healthy when you used
		

			to say that, subhanAllah.
		

			SubhanAllah.
		

			JazakAllah khair.
		

			Allah bless you and accept from you.
		

			Ameen.
