			Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa Salatu was Salam ala rasulillah
Allah Allah, he was a big marine among the brothers and sisters Assalamu alaykum warahmatullahi
wabarakatuhu. welcome you all to the daily reminder and our discussion about solar in the 21st
century.

00:00:21 --> 00:00:24

			Brothers and sisters A long time ago when I was a young boy,

00:00:25 --> 00:00:42

			my dad asked me to bring to him some twigs. And as I did so, and handed it to him, he asked me to
attempt breaking those strings. And I tried with all my might, but I could not.

00:00:44 --> 00:00:49

			And then he took the twigs from me, and handed me one. And he said, Now try.

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

			And I immediately snapped it with my little hats.

00:00:54 --> 00:00:57

			And I recall him smiling at me.

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

			And saying to me, that my dear son,

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

			I want you to take the lesson

00:01:04 --> 00:01:16

			from these twigs, and that is the lesson of unity, and being united, that when these twigs were
together, they were unbreakable. But the moment we separated them,

00:01:17 --> 00:01:20

			you managed to break them. He said my DSM,

00:01:22 --> 00:01:34

			never disconnect with your family. Look after your sisters, be together with your sisters and
united, you will be unbreakable. So Allah, may Allah preserve him.

00:01:36 --> 00:01:44

			in Allah's obedience me, my dear brothers and sisters, if we look at Salah we see that Salah matches
within us

00:01:45 --> 00:02:07

			the ideology of being united. And it teaches us the importance of being united for Allah subhanho wa
Taala especially for the males, brings us together united five times a day and brings us together
united one day during the week, and that is on the day of tomorrow and brings us together united

00:02:08 --> 00:02:54

			twice during the year. And that is during the days of Allahu Akbar. Salah teaches us unity that in
our Salah, we all stand in a straight line behind the Imam facing the Qibla irrespective of color,
irrespective of race, irrespective of financial standing, or material well being whether you're a
kink, whether you're a pauper, you all stand together in front of Allah subhanho wa Taala and and
this, my dear brothers and sisters teaches us how powerful the unity and bond of Eman is and that it
is far more stronger than the bond of blood and the unity of blood.

00:02:55 --> 00:03:33

			What an amazing lesson. Sala teaches us My dear brothers and sisters. Let us take wholesale from our
Salah. Let us adopt the culture of Salah let us make part and parcel of our lives the character of
Salah let us be united with one another. Let us be forgiving to one another. Especially our close
friends, especially our families, especially those that are supposed to enjoy the bonds of kinship
with Allah subhanho wa Taala grants the understanding and love you all for the sake of Allah. Until
next time, salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
