The lady here was a busy woman. Voila, welcome everybody to the
Safina society nothing but facts live stream. And today we begin
with a not a correction I guess a correction. Yeah. So yesterday
when I was mentioning Dr. Annabelle, the brothers cut a clip
of the bee venom video clip and made a video out of that. That bee
venom is a cure to test curing properties for humans. So had
mentioned Dr Nuba as a pair as he's he's so athletic now is like
a Paralympian. Right. What I meant was like, you know, decap like,
you know, people do multiple sports, right, like a decathlete
that does 1010 sports or whatever. But I just had Paralympian by
mistake. So he's not a paralyzed at all and hamdulillah for that.
He's not paralyzed. But that's what I meant was that he's like a
decathlete like someone who does many things which that's not even
the right phrase for him because he's mainly a biker now, but I
just said meant that as an emphasis but hopefully that
yeah, I might just got my
my prefixes confused there. Alright, segment numero uno.
today. We begin with Shiva and first of all, summit of activity.
Then I'm going to share to you today I'm going to talk to you in
segment number two about the wisdoms of theater class. So right
if you could pull up a shot from that from my Ark view. So I could
tell everybody about wisdoms of sera such an important book.
Yes, important book that chicken booty wrote, which we did a class
on Safina society and classes, they're so on ArcView. Then third,
number three, segment number three today is going to be
on this article here.
If you haven't read this, I shared this around to all my friends.
This article right here
is a really good article that you have been put out and it's more
like a paper than anything. It's long. It's about 50 pages. And I'm
only going to talk about certain chapters that I felt were really
good. Especially mainly after the ball the plan to alter American
sexual morality, which is basically from page 21 to 23. It's
just a short SEC segment that I want to talk about today. In which
we got people got played with whether they realize it or not.
They did they got played by basic marketing, right marketing
strategies, repetition, association D typical marketing
strategies to get this idea across and to get everyone sympathetic
with with the cause. Alrighty, let's go to segment number one.
A shimmer
and mohammedia
Mamod Timothy, chapter number 45 Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al
hamdu lillah wa Salatu was Salam ala Rasulillah. While early he was
Babu magia Afifi Rashi Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa early he was
salam. We just know so much about the messenger. It's unbelievable.
And other faiths and religions are following a prophet who's just not
there's hardly a historical record of of the person, let alone
details. We have more details for the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, then our present and exist it for like George
Washington, right? Think about that. And that was only how long?
I was one time taking my
GRE exam and an exam center. And they were talking about an
artifact and the guy said this artifact is from 1700. A year
ancient time years ago, right, decades, centuries ago, like 1700
That's like recent history and Islam. Right? If a scholar in
1700, if they if you ever use a scholar from the 1700s as primary
evidence, right? Even like secondary evidence, that wouldn't
even be accepted, right? No one would care. It's that's like your
contemporary. It's extremely recent. So the amount of knowledge
we have about the Prophet Firstly, it just shows us the amount of
love that the Sahaba had, like the they were just and why human
beings love like that. Is it just mere imitation? I don't think so.
They love like that because of what the Prophet did for their
personal lives. Okay, not just the mental because if you mentally
know this is your profit, and I have to respect him number one,
okay.
Then, at that point, like it's, it's rational, it's not emotional.
This is emotional.
When someone says oh, his bed was like this, his couch was like
that. They must have done something to the message of the
messenger. So I sent him his presence, and his actions did
something to them that so moved them on the inside.
And we have this still amongst our Elia
and shake I mean, told the story about his teacher, the other day
Spatola he said he had a shake, and they had a 10 hour drive in
there in the Dow when they move. I mean, you tell him, you go 25
hours through five brick walls, he'll do it for the Dow.
And he had a shake, and they're going in, they teach Quran. So
they had 10 hours of driving the entire time. She couldn't couldn't
get a word. And he was he did solo out on the prophet to shave. Syria
and one of the Syrian scholars just saw what's on the messenger
the entire time. 10 hours. They got there, they cried. They fell
asleep.
She come in, hears
from the other room. He hears Salam on the prophesy, son, but he
also he hears Salawat hears snoring.
So he's like, is there someone else in the in the next room?
So he actually goes into the shakes room, you know, those when
there's two rooms and there's a door in the middle and the hotels,
and you can basically like go in, so he peeks in gets worried. And
he sees he doesn't see anyone else he sees just a chef. So he's like,
how am I hearing snoring? And I'm hearing So off he goes, he looks
the chef is out completely. And He's snoring. And then every once
in a while, he hears alarm Susan was in alarm was snoring back to
Salawat. It's not in his sleep. He's making Salawat
it's amazing. These are comments and oh yeah.
The everyone from after the time of the prophets I send them
received something similar to what the Sahaba received of the relief
and calmness in their hearts through Salawat. Because we can't
say what the prophet anymore we could do salawat and that's how we
receive some of the relief and the Jabra to dour after the time of
the prophets lesson. So
you can't possibly just because of your belief that someone is the
most important person, you cannot possibly
be that in love. You can only be in love because something actually
happened in your personal life. Your Personal life In this had to
dunya change and transformed and we all can have access to that we
all can have access to that
through a Salah and A salaam on the messenger SallAllahu wasallam.
That's the truth. Because as the Prophet was sad and upset for his
OMA that they can't see him after his passing. So ALLAH SubhanA wa
Tada sent him a mechanism by which the people after the time of the
messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam can receive
something close very close to what the Sahaba received of relief and
pleasure in their hearts when they used to sit with the prophets of
Allah is an transformation of their life. And that mechanism is
to repeat and utter a Salah and said I'm on the messenger, the
least of which being along with Sunday was Sunday Monday.
said Muhammad Daniel's asking who is that shake? But yeah, I mean,
didn't want to say I know who it is, just because I know shake, I
mean, but to have to stick to the amount of that shift. I mean, that
that that shift, he doesn't like people talking about it. And when
you meet that yet, he's completely unassuming. He's one of the most
unassuming man you'll ever see. As a chef, you might even think like,
you know, like, if you're superficial, you might not really
big show. I'm telling you, like, he'll come in, he'll come he'll
give you the hook but like everybody else. Decent. Right?
Then I'll go out to eat with everybody like at lunch and sit
with everyone else. He does it. Go to shoe meetings. Like he doesn't
hang out with you. He doesn't go to big conferences. He's like on
his own. Right. He does his own thing. He has a job outside of
this, right? He has his own thing. And, and yet, that's maybe one of
the secrets of his IQ loss. That his his public persona is like
totally normal. It's like okay, all right. That's the immediate if
you're, if you're if you're judging from that type of
superficial view. That's what that's how you'd make a judgement.
But that's also how Allah hides his people. He hides them. panel
appears if they were too much too famous. They'd be in such demand.
They may not have time to do what they're doing right and produce
that honey. So this is the when we talk about the love of the
messenger, this is how it happens. It happens because lives have been
transformed and your life or my life all of ours can be
transformed. You will not even recognize your state. If you
devote yourself to a salon and said I'm on the messenger all I
can tell you you have to do this. You have to try it
as a man because it says the pen has
Stop here meaning can't explain anymore. Yeah, it's only from here
on experience. So the first one
first Hadith entry on the ferocity of the messenger SallAllahu. Asana
is from a Seder. Aisha Radi Allahu dadan ha ha that's in American
Eros rasool Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa early he was Allama
Allah dnm y li him in Adam in hush who who lives.
It was from Adam. And that's it. There's only one Hadith, right?
Hash Blueleaf so it was they translate Edom leather, I'm
assuming. Okay, say that Aisha says here it was from Adam. Yes,
from leap from leather filled with the fibers of palm trees. So palm
trees are of two types. There's the date palm. It's very fibrous,
very fibrous, which means that it's like hairy almost. That's
what we mean by that. If you look at the date, palm, it's fat. And
it's like hairy.
But if you and it releases dates, if you look at the Caribbean palm
tree, California and palm trees, that's where you get the skinny
little palm tree. And from as a profile, it looks much prettier,
but it doesn't produce what the date palm produces. So the date
palm is very different from the California or the Caribbean, palm
tree, the different types of palm tree.
Get
her death and I woke up Bob Xia duniya he'll Basri at designa
Abdullah Hypno Mamoon. A death in a jar for me Mohammed, and Abby
here, Carla. So let Aisha to Makana Faraj. Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam a few basic Sedara issues as well. What
was the furnishing of the prophets of the Prophet peace be upon him
in your house? Oh, let's mean Adam has who who will leave it was
leather filled with palm fibers was so ill half so and by the way,
this is really good, I guess for the summer for the heat to sleep
on that. But then again, wait a second. Wouldn't the leather get
really hot to write interesting, but obviously the home was shaded
anyway.
Okay, we're sorry. Let's have some
help. So was a mistake. So in a tough satu This is a mistake in
the print. So Isla is the passive verb was asked. So the net is
the object of the passive verb is marked for in the Arabic language.
So sweetie, let's have so to write not so in a tough setup. Right? So
that's let's make that correction. Okay, ZamZam publisher, alright,
when you get a pass on this one, because the rest of the book is
like perfect. So in a tough so Do
you understand this little Arabic lesson. There's something called a
passive verb. The passive verb for example, is when you don't mention
the doer of the verb.
And the main character here is the object of the verb. So for
example, the Apple was eaten, and you didn't say who ate the apple
was eaten. So that's how you make the object use. You centralize the
object and anything central in the Arabic language is metaphor. So
the object now enters into the central position, and which God
netted fine in the place of the doer Central, so it's more for so
Illa toughsat to
Mercan of Eros Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam a few
beta key Tiki, Paulette mishaan, Nathan de finia Jain fan and while
a phenom McKenna that Leila 10 called to loathe and a to
fascinator who are Abarth and I attend like an OTA Allah whoa
low senator who
knows and a two who should be cheap for that for for thin air
for safety net for theny Now who know who will be out of our sin
yet. So again, it's leather filled with palm fibers and leather does
make sense. Because in the in the desert, you're gonna sweat when
you sleep, right? So you need a you need a beep So like, you need
a smooth bedding, so that you could just wipe it right. And
that's if you're wondering how the wives of the prophets I send them
they actually used to scoop up his sweat. Because if you sweat on
natural leather, it's going to sit there right tanned, the leather is
tanned. So it's like hard. The leather is going to sit the the
sweat is going to sit there.
Alright. And so firstly, it's important to have leather because
in general people sweat and you need to wipe it down. You're gonna
sweat so much in the desert. You don't want cloth cotton. That's
just going to be you don't have to wash it all the time. So that's
she probably took the cup
I'm imagining took a little vial and pushed it down onto the
leather bed and all the sweat fell into it. And that's what OMA Selma
did. She used to capture the sweat of the messenger sallallahu alayhi
wasallam and use it as she felt
good. So she now says that we used to fold it into, but one day I
folded it in for I figured this would be software for the Prophet
peace be upon. So that night he that morning he woke up, woke up
and said, Man for us to moody Leila. What did you put out for me
to sleep on tonight?
She said, Oh, if you rush up your regular bed, except we fold it up
four times, instead of two.
going oh luck, so we figured it will be softer for you?
To do Who the * allottee he put it back out what's a ruler? The
first way that we used to do it fit in no monotony. Wha hoo hoo
sala de la Letta. That its softness made me fall asleep past
the Tahajjud prayer couldn't pray to Him. Because the if you want to
know maybe why you don't pray judge why you? You fail at Frank
tahajjud? Well, one of the reasons maybe your bed is too soft. Right?
I hate soft beds. Firstly, it's not good for your back. Right? The
soft beds.
soft beds is not good for your back.
Your back is gonna go in and then your back muscles are gonna get
tense trying to hold you up. So that's the first thing.
Secondly, you go into a deep sleep. Okay. When you have a soft
bit should have a hard bit.
Again, differences of bodies. The Prophet Sall Allahu alayhi wa
sallam said, What do I have in common with worldly comforts?
Like, what do I have worldly comforts from my example is that
of a traveler, who after walking stops under the shadow of a tree
for a while to rest. And after sitting while he goes on his way,
that's the head to dunya for us. And this is so important because
every once in a while you got to bring this in. It relieves you
from the pressures of being like the Joneses. Everyone else is this
saying, keeping up with the Joneses. Got to keep up with
everybody else. Okay. So it relieves you that well, why do I
need to keep up with anybody, whatever it is, whatever happens
happens, I don't need to be better than anybody. I don't need to the
competition of had to dunya that Western life is all about that.
It's not just Western life, all Hoffler all heedlessness good. As
we read from Chapter 45 of the Shema. It's about the simple
bedding of the prophet that was it all heedlessness from have had to
dunya. Right? It's it's going to
stress you out. Why? Because you're limited and dunya is
limited. And time is limited. Right? And well, money is limited.
So it's all limited upon limited of unlimited upon limited.
Therefore, we're all going and it's going to be only a few people
who advance over everybody else. The higher you go up, the more
limited life gets. So the more miserable you're going to be. I
remember seeing recently,
billionaires who are not rich enough to make it on the what is
it Forbes 500 billionaires, they're upset.
How could you be upset as a billionaire by living a life of
comparison? If you're always living a life of comparison,
that's why you're upset. So the Prophet has said he's relieving us
here. Forget this hated dunya how many people there all of their
misery and depression and sadness is because of the limited limited
nature of this world? I can't have it. And if I do get it, it's too
late. And then if I do get it, someone's got more. It's always
misery, misery, misery, misery. So our way is, as the Prophet has
said in other Hadith, because you have to read all the Hadith
together to understand the picture of the messenger SallAllahu when
he was on dunya hundra hollow the prophesy centum said yes, this
dunya has some green, beautiful fresh parts of it. So he's
basically saying you can enjoy some of that to be thankful to
Allah to Allah that He gave it to you. Yet at the same time, when
the striving for it becomes stressful.
Then go to zoo had this had to do it as a blink of an eye you blink
you're done. And the more the older you get you realize this
life really is a blink. Like as you get older, you're you blink a
decade past. Right in the beginning. It feels like I
remember going from second grade to third grade. Wow. The year is
over. I can't believe it right. Cannot believe the year is over.
And then you have a birthday like your sixth birthday. You can't
believe sixth birthday. Then seventh birthday. Why? Because cut
out two years of a kid's life. He doesn't understand what's going
on. So from age two to age seven, that's five, five years. So his
seven year that's that's 20% of
His life, right 20% of his existence. So but when you're 50
years old, a year is 1/50. It's 2% of your existence, right? So a
year for a 50 year old is nothing. So only 2% of his existence, and
it gets less and less and less. As time goes on until you realize
you, you realize you blink, and it's over with, whenever you see
an old person will tell you do this interesting exercise. Next
time you see an old person, you see an old woman, for example. Or
maybe like she's in the middle towards the end, maybe 40 5060.
Always try to think about that woman when she was eight years
old. When she was three years old, she was probably the cutest
creature for somebody at some point, right? You see an old woman
at one point, she was 18 years old, and she was maybe the envy of
the group, right? But time passed them by and took him where they
are now. But then again, that's what's gonna happen to us too. So
anytime you contemplate time, it really gets mystical real fast.
And then you leave this world. Now, here's the beauty of it. When
you leave this world, there's no age. Once your soul leaves your
body, you're entered agelessness. There's no age because the age is
a property of the body, not a property of the rule. And that's
an amazing thing. So when people die, as soon as people died,
they're ageless. Someone who's 95 and dies, is no longer 95. He's
ageless, because the rule, it does not have an age, right? Doesn't
have an age. It's panela. You think, oh, the old man died? Do
you think he's like limping as a spirit? No, here's the rule. It's
fresh. It's young, it has no age. Okay. So just get your get the
bodies of people out of your mind completely, because it's just
their body.
So let's head to dunya. It's one of the most relaxing things to
talk about the shortness of it. And the more you read this, the
more you repeat this, it settles in your heart, you actually
literally just relax, you literally will find all your
anxieties gone. And that's one of the beauties of visiting the
graves and being part of this life, this this work. And any
message of life is that you'll see a lot of funerals, anytime that
you can go to a funeral, go to a funeral.
Eventually, death is going to be part of your life. And you're
going to realize we're all going like I've seen so many people go.
I have to tell you Spatola, the last three funerals, we had all
under the age of 40.
The Khan Bob, the assistant for the restaurant comm bubble, may
Allah have mercy upon him, I think he was maybe 42 maximum. Right.
Then there was I think was named Zaid, Dr. Spatola, friend of all
of our Rutgers students here, he must have just graduated like
three or four years ago, and he passes away. And then another man,
did you go to Barry Jones's funeral. Hey, have you went
Barry Jones's funeral? No, okay, so this this man is a convert. I
think he also was under 40 years old. Like nobody really knew him
in the community. But they contacted the city, he's a Muslim,
so you're the nearest mosque less than 40 years old.
Unbelievable. Subhan Allah.
So
it's a beautiful thing to think about death. You won't have your
limbs will not want to commit sins. When you're thinking about
death. Say that you should have your loads. Alana said once a
woman from the unsolved came and saw that about
a cloak was spread on the bed of the messengers of Allah when he
was setting them. She returned home and made a bed in which she
filled will fill it with wool, and sent it to me for the messenger
peace be upon him. When the prophets of Allah when he was sent
him saw the bed now this is a very soft bed filled with wool cloth
filled with wool now, he inquired what is this? I replied, A certain
woman from the unsought came and after seeing the bed of the
messenger peace be upon him, she sent a new bed cloth filled with
wool, what is the messenger say? Return it. It looks too good to
me. Okay. And I do not feel like sending it back. So I just said it
looked too good to me. I didn't feel I didn't feel like sending it
back. Okay, but the messenger insisted that I send it back and
he said, I swear an oath, if I wish Allah to Allah will line up
the mountains of golden silver for me. If I wish Allah was line up
the mountains of golden silver for me, then I returned the bed. So
the first one of the shitheads here is that if he didn't want to
the profits, wanted to do something. She didn't want to do
it. She said it. What does that tell you about the Prophet peace
be upon him? I say that isn't as the Prophet says return it. She
doesn't want to return it. So she says I don't want to return it
Subhanallah right. It did that just goes to show you the freedom
people had with the profit.
I mean, most households think about this most households.
The man says something.
Okay, and then he
gets argued back. And there's a difference between, say that you
shouldn't say to Khadija, like Khadija and the Prophet were
appears married and peers said I was way younger, right? But yet
she still had she felt the freedom to say I don't want to write, I
didn't want to do it. Now, if she didn't say with an attitude, that
would be impossible, right? Because that would be a major sin
to talk with an attitude to the messenger piece people.
But she said, I don't want to do it. And when she said she want to
do it, the prophet then sworn oath, he said, Well, I'm not going
to see fun, right? If Allah had wanted, well, life, oh of Allah
wanted to if I wanted the
mountains as Golden silver, Allah will give it to me. Okay? So the
prophets, Allah I said to him, that was his oath, his oath was by
Allah. If I wanted the mountains of golden silver, Allah would line
it up for me to make cities sink, this is something that necessary
you must do it. So I returned the bed. Our beloved Miss ODE says, I
once came to the messenger SallAllahu, it was Southern, he
was resting on a mat made out of palm leaves, the marks could be
seen on his body, and I began to cry.
I said in most of
the messages that I send said, yeah, yeah. Why do you cry? He
said, O Messenger of Allah, the Keiser, and Kisara right, the
Caesars of Rome and of the Constantinople and Persia. They
sleep on silk and velvet. And you sleep on this poem that
the prophets of Allah when he was sentenced, this is not a thing to
cry about, for them is the world and for us is the hereafter.
See, this is somebody who saw the hereafter. That's why he has that
absolute certainty. Okay, we take from his certainty, because you
get confidence from somebody that's confident.
You get confident from somebody that's confident and he had the
confidence Subhanallah he had the confidence to say this
all right.
When he spoke about Acura like it's right there.
That's what gave the Sahaba the feeling like it is right there
because when you see someone with that confidence you have that
confidence to
a similar incident wants to place with say dollar, same thing.
Right, so that's inside Makati.
That's why you have to hang out. You have to keep the company of
the solder Hain they talk about the dunya in such a way that
it's not just theory anymore. You see it in their eyes that they
don't care about something. And you see it in the hours that they
do care about something. Right.
All right, let's move on to segment number two. Number two,
Ryan will pull up for us.
I'm doing like two things at once. I'm sorry. If you could pull up
for us. All right, this is what we have here. Look at this everybody.
This is such an important course. And it's a lot of lectures. It's
like 30 lectures or so on the wisdoms of Sierra
by side on Madonna booty
wisdoms of theater by say you can get this by going to arc view dot
O R G,
arc view dot O R G and signing up for our free plus.
Yeah.
Go and argue any questions about our cue plus today? What is it?
It's my day actually on our cue plus.
All right, this is today's Maliki FIP followed by the shot of Sahih
Muslim by Imam nawawi.
Right and
shut her Muslim by by Imam nawawi. And
that's going to be back to back so sign up for ArcView basic and then
ArcView plus, alright are a few plus to watch this pre recorded
class of shot of the conch explanation of the wisdoms of
Syrah by shiksa Ramadan and booty.
Second booty to me is almost like a version of Imam Minogue. He
gives you a summary of Edison in such simple
language and he keeps your attention and he's one of the best
scholars of Hashem may Allah have mercy upon him. Of course he
passed. May Allah give him Jonathan Franzen have mercy upon
him in his grave of course.
She passed away in a bombing. He also is somebody that
his book is not Sita itself. It's an extrapolation of extrapolation
of the
wisdoms of the Syrah, and then we go on the wisdom. So it's not just
Sita. It's really the wisdoms of it. Yeah. All right. Let's now
move on to this section here.
All right, any comments or questions so far?
Yes, Jose, it's FIPS a Syrah. The book is FIPPA. Sierra and I, we
read the entire book in a class that started before COVID into
COVID and finished during COVID. And I'm telling you, it's a book
that is one it's the best book in terms of the wisdoms of Syrah and
we talk about it and we do this in like 36 videos, each 36 sessions,
each session must be about two and a half hours long.
All right, segment numero trace. Oh, I should speak Spanish
properly numero tres.
After the ball,
the plan to alter Americans sexual morality
or it should be Americans is
I need to I need to tell shareholder, this actually.
Toshiko Mr. Lehmann. This.
Hold on a second.
It's either America's sexual morality
or Americans is apostrophe s. Right? So let me just tell him
this real quick.
Set Armonico miasha Kamara dishes after the ball the plan to alter
Americans, sexual morality, the apostrophe should be either
America's sexual morality or Americans than the apostrophe
after this sexual morality. You know, correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm like number one with grammar errors, but I just see them when I
read.
Okay. So, unfortunately, Western Muslims who parrot LGBT talking
points do not realize that much of their moral sensibility has been
shaped by people with a deliberate agenda to destroy religious mores.
In 1989, neuro psychologist Marshall Kirk and social marketing
and advertising executive Hunter Matson co authored the book, after
the ball how America will conquer its fear and hatred of gays in the
90s. Both Harvard trained authors identified as gay, and their books
served as a manifesto for normalizing homosexuality in
Western societies. Since its released, the books plan has been
implemented lock stock and barrel by members of the LGBT movement.
My point in talking about this is to notice and to realize that you
have
look fine see marketing when you see it recognize marketing when
you see it. The author's boldly state early in the book The
campaign we outlined in this book through though complex depends
centrally upon a program of unabashed propaganda,
firmly grounded in long established Principles of
Psychology and advertising. Of course, advertising is all about
psychology, and the rules of persuasion, etc. And sometimes it
dips into hypnotism and hypnotism is not as people think that you
put a clock and people get hypnotized. That's not what
hypnotism is. Hypnotism is when you repeat, when you connect a
like a word or phrase to an emotion so many times, okay, that
people immediately are fixated, almost like the the
Pavlovian dog almost right that you've repeated a phrase and an
emotion so many times, that as soon as now the phrase or the
image is brought forth, the emotion is brought forth, right?
Or you it's all about repetition.
Okay, so, Kirk and Madison employed the principles of
desensitization in their campaigning. All right, aren't we
we're all desensitized to this right now. They sought to build on
people's primal instincts, whereby a flood of gay related advertising
presented in the latest in the least offensive fashion possible,
that's what it is. It's a flood and it's it's very gentle, subtle
and always connected with happiness. This will get the job
done. He says, If straights can't shut off the shower, the author
says they will at least eventually get used to being what and is that
not where we're at right now? Because you can't get upset every
time you see some
Think if you see it 50 times a day, right?
On their notion of conversion, the author's right. We mean conversion
of the average Americans emotions, mind, and we'll
they don't necessarily care if you do it or not, if you be gay, but
they want that your emotions, your will your mind be in support of
this program?
I mean, this stuff is just it's textbook. It's it's like,
advertising is not that hard. Is there certain techniques and
certain things that are used a right could you link the article.
And you can just get it from Europeans, you can just google
your keen LGBT
narrative.
As Muslims, it is paramount that we recognize and stand firm
against this calculated effort to desensitize us to the limits set
by Allah subhanaw taala. Now they bring in another
set of phrases. All right.
These sets of phrases here are these words are catchwords.
buzzwords. Okay. It goes without saying that in stark contrast to
Islam in the West, the divine command, bears practically no
relevance whatsoever to contemporary moral discourse. We
know that not the words, in public, nobody cares about your
religious beliefs, subordinating divine omniscience to the temporal
and temperamental whims of modern society is bound to bring ruin.
And then defects are only beginning to be seen. When Allah
tells you, it could be that you dislike something, and it's good
for you, and you like something and it's bad for you. And Allah
knows, and you do not know, when religion becomes irrelevant to
sexual behavior and life at large people feel compelled to form
their own, thoroughly personal and subjective moral frameworks. But
in reality, people are not forming their own.
I haven't seen someone let's say leave off an Islamic framework,
for example.
And then bring up a completely new and unique framework.
Like I've never seen that happen. Right? What actually happens is
that people just follow in along with the trend.
And that's what yesterday that
Imams one talked about, when he said the verse of the Quran, it
says,
a person collapses through the heavens, this is when someone
leaves the way this lamp collapses to the heavens, then either a bird
snatches him or he tumbles into some in a dark corner. Okay. Dr.
Duffy would buy it out, we'd be at home feeling again inside. So it's
something that when people leave
a fret of the framework of Islam, they're not leaving it to form a
new framework. They're falling lock, stock and barrel in the
contemporary framework, right? In the monoculture that we're that we
live in today.
So
these are formed by what they list as four very popular concepts and
words that are parroted over and over and over and over the first
one being freedom so in pop culture, it's the radical
elimination of all external barriers to achieve maximum
happiness. And this to us is really a it's feeding enough Silla
Mara
it's feeding enough set Amana the ego that commands to evil. Now why
does Allah stop us because the, the concept of happiness in Islam
is very different than happiness in the secular world, in the
secular world. It's the happiness of your carnal soul. In general,
you're free to do whatever you want free to enjoy.
Free to have as much pleasure as you want. And no one can stop your
pleasure. All modern spiritualities all of them have
one thing in common they never say no to your ego.
They never say no to your ego. They never say to you don't have
Zina don't commit Zina don't have * before marriage outside of
marriage, however, this way that way, the other don't look at what
is haram. They never limit Okay, your carnal desires, right? And if
it is, it's only by your own desire to do so. Not out of
obedience to somebody else. Right? Not out of obedience to a creator,
or, or anything else. Because there's a big difference when
you're the author of your own morality, it's very different than
when you're submitted. And the whole point of Islam is to get the
ego to submit to something greater than when you create you can
create your own morality. And it could be more strict than Islam.
Or and Judaism or Christianity.
And but why is this still gonna lead you to arrogance because
you're the creator of that morality, you made that morality?
And that's one of the whole point of this is that this is a high
level abstract of you know, law
level of paganism is that you just worshiping yourself, instead of
worshipping an idol. Even the idol is just almost like a meteor
because you make the idol to idolatry and paganism itself. It's
a roundabout way of worshiping yourself. Because who you made the
idol.
Okay, the priest makes these prayers and make stuff up. So,
when you're the creator of your own morality, you're truly
worshiping yourself, even if you're putting your ego down. And
that's a big difference between so hate and this morality. So he says
that,
in Islam, freedom is based on servitude to God.
This is what we're saying here.
Our happiness is not gained by serving our neffs, or happiness is
gained by serving our Creator. Right, that's the difference. And
by by falling into the orbit of the hull, UK and the creator, all
right, then at that point, when when we fall into that orbit,
that's when we are most happy. Right, and that orbit is going to
be to apply the shutter in our in our daily lives, we will find
ourselves and our hearts in that orbit, individual autonomy. The
ladder is a word formed from the suffix is auto meaning self, and
nomos meaning law,
autonomy. So the West notion of autonomy literally means giving
oneself the law. Okay? That's what we're saying you create your own
morality.
whereby each person determines what is right and wrong without
recourse to anything external to himself. And this is the idea
here. And that's what we said, even within Islam, you have to be
careful with this Be very careful this even inside of Islam, because
the methodology of following Islam by coming to conclusions yourself,
and then working backwards to find the evidence for it.
Whereas the more the way that is more aligned with the Sunnah is
that you choose a methodology or an mm, method, meaning, which is a
methodology and an amen. Okay, you study them.
You might be a common Muslim, but you can study the Imams and his
basic methodology, it's not going to take you. And if you spent a
week reading up on on each Imam, that's a month, we're talking
about your religion here. So I think a month worth of reading,
you know, after work is useful, is not asking a lot.
So you do that. And then you decide upon that methodology. Now
that methodology that Imam you are not just following that Imam,
because his methodology has been used through the centuries to
answer questions that did not come up in his time. Okay. And the
scholars of that method, they take his words, and they fashion from
his words, his philosophy of law.
Okay.
They fashion his philosophy. So when you're when someone says, Oh,
I'm going to follow a medic who lived while the Abu Hanifa, who
lived 14 1200 years, no, you're following he's set the fundamental
methodology. Every generation, new matters came up, the scholars of
that time, utilize his methodology to answer those questions. So
that's why it's 100. It's still the Hanafi method 700 years later,
filled with issues that Hanifa never talked about, because they
used his method. And the same thing for all the other four
methods. Until today, a living chain that never dies, where
scholars of each method today, they take the philosophy, the
methodology derived by that method by that Imam, or initiated by that
Imam, even if others filled in details. Okay, and polished it
off. And they answer questions that came that come up today,
which we call no acid issues that happened today. That didn't happen
in the past. And we need an answer to it. Let me give you a simple
example. I'll give you a very simple example of how a completely
modern issue and I'm not going to this is this is a real question,
but I'm not going to say it in a way that's going to put anyone on
the spot.
A husband and wife, they couldn't have kids.
So they went through the IVF method, which means that her
reproductive like egg and his sperm were taken outside from an
and I guess in a lab, they tried to fertilize. Okay, so his fluid
and her egg are outside of their bodies. Now did that something
that existed in the old days? No. Right? So now here's the question.
That's all fine is how that
as long as there are parameters for that to make sure that these
things don't get mixed up.
They get divorced and they have a fertilized egg. They do have a
fertilized egg still in the freezer.
And they get divorced. Is she allowed now to implant that in
side of her stomach after the divorce. That's the question. It's
not Zina, right. It's her egg.
With or without his consent? The answer is no. It's haram. Whether
he consented it why? Because they're divorced. Now we go back
in time for the methodology of answering this question that he
mimetic was asked the question and you may find this a little bit
crazy, but it's okay because there are a lot of things you don't
know. He was asked that a girl married a jinn
and got pregnant.
You he was asked, Is this marriage, halal or haram?
Malik said It is haram. Not because it doesn't exist, or by
the Sharia. It's haram, that a Muslim Jen and a Muslim woman got
married by the Sharia, with witnesses. Don't ask how I don't
know in the gym world or something. I don't know.
He's saying medics think he's seen this. He's not saying it's it's
Zina, because they're following the rules of marriage. But I am
making it forbidden medic says on the basis of closing a door that
would lead to many problems, which is that I would not like to see a
woman walking around pregnant, having never been married amongst
us human beings, and saying my husband is unseen.
Well, what kind of society we're gonna have after that, right?
Every other person comes pregnant, as in my husband's engine? Well,
you can't see him. Where was the wedding ceremony in the gin world?
That nobody saw it? We can't have this, right. So in the same way,
we're using that methodology of closing the door of anyone ever
being
pregnant without a marriage.
And the scholars, the Maliki school, as of today use that as
the basis to say no, It's haram. First of all, he would have to
consent to it. And that's not it.
You'd have to be married to him, so that you can not walk around
pregnant, alright, sank. Like without a marriage, good without a
husband.
So and without like a record of being married. So
that's the idea there.
So that's an example. And that's the methodology of how Muslims
today may if they get whimsical, come look for the ruling in Cydia
that they want, then work backwards. No, we say we look for
the methodology. And every one of you. You saw, I'm not a scholar,
okay, you're not a scholar, good for you. I'm not a scholar either.
No, we're just trying to be focused, meaning learning the
rulings and the basis of the rulings. But
you say I'm not trained, I don't know if you are trained enough. If
you're trained enough to buy a car, to buy a house to marry a
woman, you can be trained enough to read the biographies of Imams,
enough to understand their methodology and pick one.
So this excute I'm just a common Muslim. The HG head of the common
Muslim is just choose which Imam is most worthy of being followed.
And then you follow it down the line.
What comes from that Imam I accept that's my religion. That's my book
of law
until it hits a wall where it's impossible, or the situation's of
the world change. Then the Mufti is the current living Mufti of
that method. They publishing their answers to this all the time,
their their stuff is published on this on the no acid, whether it's
in a video or it's an article, okay, it's out there, no as it new
matters that make that we need federal for. So this is what's
important and this is how to operate. So this autonomy being I
make my own law, again, a bad to neffs and a bad taste in our third
authenticity. The modern West defines this as a complete
unfettered expression of the inner self, thoughts, feelings, desires,
that means everything inside you, you're not authentic unless it's
outside of you. Right? You're expressing it.
Okay. So we say no, we are our true authentic selves as human
beings only when we have found and submitted to our Creator, right in
consonance, with our fifth three, that filter that is natural,
inborn inclination.
Let me take a picture that too, because that should be fitrah.
Picture that
all right.
Natural, inborn inclinations. We say something different. You may
have desires. All right.
We have desires.
These desires are not always to be acted upon.
And if you do act upon something you shouldn't corrupt the society
by.
Okay? If you do act upon it, you shouldn't corrupt the society with
it, by sharing it with everybody, by by by doing it right in front
of everybody, and getting other people to do it. Now let's take an
analogy.
As parts of our bodies should be covered
physical things that we do with our body, vomiting, blowing your
nose to a degree, the stuff that's the mucus that's in your nose
passing gas, urine defecation? Do we not all agree that a civilized
society is where people are trained to keep that as private as
possible?
Right? Do you imagine someone on a bus pulling earwax out and looking
at it and sniffing it and what kind of disgusting society we
living in? You imagine someone's urinating in the street. And this
becoming a socially acceptable thing. So in the same way that
this wonderful human body, it has things that are quite disgusting
about it, right?
Likewise, the human knifes has desires that are quite disgusting,
and sinful. And Allah even tells us some of your desires are
natural. But you have to limit them and curb them. So in our
society, we say the righteous person is the one who has enough
shame that he keeps his his sins, his lack of discipline private,
it's not sincerity and loss. All right, it's not sincerity and the
class to say that whatever I do in private, I want to admit it in
public, we don't have a sense of confession, neither to a priest
nor to the people. Right, you keep that to yourself. Because when you
do that, it's Amen. When you're, you're embarrassed by it, it
reflects that you believe in it, that you believe that's haram. And
you believe in that you respect the believers that you don't want
to corrupt them. So that's why for us, even when we do commit sins,
we say keep it hidden. When you keep it hidden, you're containing
it, you're likely to conquer it, once you put it out there becomes
part of your identity, and then you want to promote it. Alright,
so a person should always keep their sins private. And certain
things have to be you have to control it. Fire, gas,
electricity, go around homes, buildings, these things are super
contained. We use them where they're supposed to be used, the
gas should only come out of the stove, when the fire is on.
Otherwise, that gas comes out of the stove, and there's no flame,
we all die. We faint first, then we die. That's why they gave
guests that scent. It's not a natural scent, they gave guests
when you ever, if water ever spills on your stove, I'm sure
this happens everybody, the flame goes out, then someone comes to
turn on the gas, the gas comes out with no flame. And you just smell
the gas, that smell of gas is made. So that every it's added
that smell. So we all know Oh, I smell gas, turn it off. Call the
utility company tell them I smell gas and see what an emergency it
is. Certain things have to be contained. I almost got basically
like jumped at Walmart. When I went for the the propane tank. I
just want to swap out the propane tank.
So I say how do I swap out the propane tank said go to customer
service tell me or swap out the propane tank. So I get there. I
get to customer service. And I'm walking I was like, well, I need
to buy something first, right? So I figured and I always forget this
you always say I'm never going to shop at Walmart again, this place
is absolutely miserable. None of the aisles make sense. And it just
attracts odd people. And it's a miserable experience. Every time
you buy some from Walmart, it's gonna break by the time you get
home. It's all cheap stuff. So I'm walking with the propane tank
going to get what I need.
When I was seen walking, like in the aisles with the propane tank,
I got jumped almost they swarmed me, right. And this you got to get
out now. Okay, let me let me pay for my toothbrush, right at least
threatens the 35 cent toothbrush, right? Let me just pay for it. And
then they're no drop everything and leave because it's got to be
controlled. Right? And that's something that's good. You put it
in your grill, you use it, you fire up your grill and you use it.
So it's something good, but we agree it has to be contained. The
physical is a metaphor for a lot of the abstract, right? And a lot
of what is inside of us. That a lot of good things. Right, but it
should be kept hidden. And that's a big difference between the
Western concepts of authenticity. I'm just being authentic. No,
you're not you're spilling your sins out. You're being vulgar,
you're being whatever. You're calling it authentic. We have a
completely different concept for this. We got to understand these
things. Consent is the next one. All right. And in the modern
world, it's this article The article says By the way, the
article does not have an author. It's the whole institute like
being it just says European Institute.
In the modern world has come to fetishize choice, which goes back
to autonomy and authenticity. And consent, which are derivatives of
the notions listed above any action a person takes is
legitimized, it's legitimate because he felt and it was he felt
that way. And it was his choice. Okay. And if you do it to somebody
else, if two people do something, it's legitimate because they gave
consent.
Our study, so that's not that consent is in like buying and
selling something that consent is in certain things only, right?
It's not.
It doesn't make something sacred. It doesn't make something just
because two people consented to it. Okay. As long as there's no
harm to others, then you're good to go. And this is especially the
case for sexual activity. Now, in contemporary culture, notions of
moral character, and particularly any consideration of virtue are
antiquated. Why? Because virtue and character moral character,
require a standard that we live up to. So they don't talk about this
anymore. They just talk about authenticity, being yourself, your
choice, and then if you do something with someone else, you
have to have consent.
Okay. As long as people have to people have consent, there's,
that's the only morality that they need to observe. Right? So consent
has been elevated to a sacred status. Now, we asked the question
given the postmodern point, he says you're given the postmodern
premise that all notions are socially constructed, then
wouldn't consent also be nothing other than a social construct, to
emphasize consent as the fulcrum of moral validity is utterly
incoherent, you should have no sacred including consent. Nothing
should be sacred, including feelings and consent. Right? So
they've replaced their sacred, right, they've tossed out the
sacred and of course, in the talking from a Christian concept,
they've tossed that out and brought in choice and consent.
Okay.
So reason, Revelation went out a long time ago, reason, what came
in and replaced revelation, but reason itself has been given the
boot, and is now solely on feelings, choice, consent, these
other concepts. Alright. So this is the these are these, this is
all I wanted to talk about. Now.
The article is long. We can talk about other portions of it later.
But it was I felt it was important to talk about the planned
methodology by which this stuff was ushered into society, right,
by advertising, marketing, entertainment executives, right,
and those supporting them.
And then how these four terms are just used and repeated over and
over and over. And if anybody absorbs these terms without
realizing, like, what they're actually absorbing, and they start
utilizing that speaking of that, at that point.
They gotta realize what they're saying, because so much of it is
in contradiction, to our understanding of, of everything
that they're talking about here. All right, we didn't do much of a
q&a yesterday. So today
let's do our q&a. All right, let's do this for let's say in a couple
minutes, because yesterday you all got gypped there was no q&a. So
let's open up the Instagram open up YouTube
and see what we got here
All right, let's see what we got here.
Ibrahim Khan, is it appropriate after making dua when waiting for
the response? That you start thinking about scenarios where it
doesn't work out? No, never. Because the prophets of Allah who
had he was setting him said
he said that
odo Allah we're unto Mookie numerable Jabba Eliakim you go
straight, you never look back. This is happening.
I think that's the opinion never looked back. Okay.
never looked back. Soulfly says that they want like guests again,
inshallah we'll bring guests as much as possible not only regrets,
we need to change the setup here, so that we can have two cameras.
Right. And and I need the guests right in front of me. And probably
like a camera, I guess it might look a bit weird, but a camera on
the angle here, out there. And we need to have a setup for him. And
maybe a backdrop right, so that they can be on camera. What were
the flags? I think she said, right. Someone asked about the
flags. Yaffa says
we had flags with the name of the Prophet on them,
that the kids were holding up, Mohammed Manam. Some scholars say
It's haram to vote for Kufa, political office, they all support
Zionists, and versus the lesser of two evils. Yes, both exists that
both opinions exist that.
But I would I would think probably that, if if if there was a
discernible lesser evil, then
it means I can't ever say that's incumbent upon us, but it would
probably be permitted to take that option would not say it's
incumbent. But if we could determine that, I think personally
that
I don't know who I can't see a lesser of two evils. I see two
evils. That's all I see. That's why I never voted. I rarely vote.
Some scholars for commitment. Now that's not necessarily I'm not
telling people not to vote. And some people are very much but I
don't always see at the presidential level. I don't know
we see who's lesser of two evils. Right. So how could you not say
that, you know, the Republicans are not more evil.
Because they don't promote this nonsense that that the Democrats
are all about now.
Completely altering what it means to be human being.
Okay, one guy's he's against you and your people. At least he
recognizes what a person is. These people are bringing confusion to
every generation and their gun nuts, teaching it to kids. They've
gotten that's what Allah says about the most of the phone calls
Comilla musli phone, most of this means he doesn't know limits, he
doesn't know where to stop. That's what a Muslim means. There's
literally just not know where to stop.
Okay. Some scholars permit men to marry al Kitab.
In America method, it is mcru.
Outside of
and more mcru outside of data Islam to marry from Al Kitab.
That's according to what I was taught from Sheikh Muhammad should
be.
But if a person is a Jew, if a woman is Jewish or Christian and a
man marries her, it is a valid marriage. It is not Zina. It's a
valid and very valid marriage, but it's very mcru. Outside of that
Islam because of the fear of the influences and where the kids
would go if there's a dispute, etcetera.
is covering the eyes completely with niqab a bit.
The feds the ruling of the Nicaea on that is that if niqab is a
bidder if feud as the obligation of hijab, but niqab can be
recommended, maybe even obligatory, if there's harm for a
woman right, then that covering her face would block that harm. So
but that coverage of the face is not the definition of the hijab.
So there's a big difference in the medical view, the position on it,
hijab is to cover everything except the face, the hands and the
bottom of the feet. That's hijab, in the medical school. Anything
beyond that is a blue. But the cover the face can become
obligatory, depending if there's harms, if there are harms.
I remember also mentioning Yep.
Because everyone's gonna say, oh, because we live around kofod.
Every woman has to wear a niqab. niqab? Yep. But then he also
mentioned on the other hand, what his teachers had said that is if
wearing niqab put someone in like social danger or things like this,
where people are going to discriminate against them or
whatever it is, you have to hate crimes against them then then
obviously, you're not going to we're going to call Yeah, so the
issue of niqab is all is Malou niqab being just the face
covering? It has nothing to do with hijab the hijab is not that
so that's what he mimetics says it's a polluter think anything to
cover anything more? Because the prophets clearly said and by the
way, these this thing is from Terrazza did not Imam Malik have a
mom, right? Did not medic have ants and people did not walk in
the streets and see what the women of Medina were wearing. Right so
he knew what knew what what was obligatory in a job
And it's in the hadith of fundamental Bess, where the woman
asked him, he said, everything except this and this, the prophets
I sent him pointed that that's at the Fetzer of Mecca, Hadith, the
fundamental best if you want a textual evidence, but it's also
something that they lived with. So it's not going to change over two,
three generations. And that's the value of the first three
generations of Islam in Medina in particular, where the concept is
that the things certain things could not possibly fathom will be
changed in three generations.
Right from the time of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam to the third
generation, and that's what medic documented. This is what we do
here. This is what the scholars do here. When he says, This is what
we do here. It doesn't mean the plumber and the house builder. He
means the scholars.
So if it's wrong to ask a potential spouse says Sarah, Kay,
alright, Sarah, Kay, your questions up?
If you can't ask about their past sins, how do we determine their
character? Or if they've truly changed? By asking about them, ask
their friends, ask their neighbors, ask the people of the
masjid ask their associates that they work with that they go to
school with that they go to the MSA with you talked about them,
you asked about them. And I hardly disagree. No, do not recommend
people marry strangers.
Let's say it's a guy, well, hopefully, you have a brother, or
you have a family friend who's friends with that guy, he could
spill all the beans tell you all about this guy. Do it. Don't do
it. He did this. He does that. So but nowadays,
people don't even have that. And they have to marry strangers.
Speaking of marrying strangers, if you want to marry and meet some
new people, we've we're promoting NBI C's married matrimonial
system, which I like the most, because it's not a scroll system,
you're not going to see pages of women and scroll through them,
you're going to put in as much detail as possible in an
application, which can be found at mbyc dot O R G bet forward slash
Melinda.
You're going to fill out as much information as possible, they're
going to read it.
And then they're going to go look at the women or the opposite
gender, who filled out the same the form and see if there's a
match. If there's a match, they ask you permission and they ask
her permission. If you both permit, they'll email you both.
And say you guys take it from here.
That's how simple it is. Right? That's how simple it is. And
that's why I like it. There's no in a sense of like
scrolling through pictures that actually increases people's
desires and makes things worse, because all they're going to do is
just start if they went in with a clean intention there, it's going
to turn not clean really quickly.
What's happened over here called us a habit. Daniel, is the son of
a human generic a human being or a mixture between I don't think that
the son of no human and Jen, I have no knowledge about it, but I
think they can't reproduce in the way that meals can't reproduce.
Yeah. Otherwise they'd be a species amongst us right? And
everyone would be like to fourth gen or something like that. I
don't think that they can reproduce and Allah knows best
just like mules. Mule is a product of a horse and a donkey.
Right.
Bushra Abdul Karim. If husband loves to spend time in Halawa more
than his wife that means he loves to be all alone more than he loves
to spend time with his wife.
What's going on?
Have you is that going to be you when you grow? He is loved by the
community because of his Tao and he is constantly praised by the
people, but the wife is hurt by his actions than this person. If
this is the case, if this is the case,
then this person has he failed in the most important thing
and did not the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam say the
intercession for those whose immediate family praises him right
or not intercession and righteous is the one who dies and his
immediate family praises him. This is like a Shiva for him.
Your immediate family is your first Dawa assignment is not Allah
subhanaw taala says what more Elijah was solid he was stubborn
Allah. What is the Hukam of Sharia, of establishing the
shittier in your own home and establishing Islam in your own
home? That's a foot
to go and preach to the people is not a foot. It's fun Keifa it's a
communal obligation, to give doubt to your family. It's fun to dine.
And but if you understand Dawa as okay, I establish the prayer
everyone's fasting and praying
Here's a guy who's being given no, no one's watching anything bad. In
the house, no one's playing music in the house. Everyone's wearing
hijab. If you think that that's what it is, you made a mistake,
because that's the Tao of the body maybe, but isn't Dawa to make
people love Allah subhanaw taala isn't that the real essence of
Tao? To make people love Allah himself, to make people love the
Prophet to have in their heart's desire? What makes people scholars
and seek knowledge, they love it. That's it. They enjoy this. They
love the messenger Peace be upon they love the shittier so Dawa to
us is not just to make people's body do the right thing that's
easy. Go in and yell and make you know Dawa is make people love them
so that behind your back, they're still doing it without you telling
them. They're still doing it. So you have to create a love inside
of them.
And as we said about the Messenger of Peace be upon him. The Sahaba
were beloved to the Prophet peace be upon him because he changed
their personal lives. That's why they loved him. So you have to be
someone who changes their personal lives. Someone that they love to
be around. And I remember seeing
I'm not gonna say his name, Sudanese shake in England.
His family, like obsessed with their dad. It was amazing. I've
never seen anything like this. Like the wife, the kids, they were
obsessed with their debt. Most people are like, Oh, dad's not
here. That party, right? Not this family. A debt I got upset, oh,
going out to a talk again, they got upset, right? They love to be
around their debt. I've never seen anything like this because the
dad, his, he like was like emanating love all the time.
Because he himself was in love. He himself loved Allah and His
messenger. So I sent him and he was like that spilled onto them.
Jennifer says,
This is really hard. As a parent, I had no idea how hard it would
be. I thought I teach them. Right. And that it would be.
And that would be it. It's more important, it is important to
teach them right from wrong. Right. And that's really why
single parenting is. I don't know, I'm not saying she's a single
parent. But I'm saying it's really hard to be a single parent because
it's really hard. Just to lay down the law and be loved but it is
doable. It's doable.
If you're not tasting the sweetness in your own heart, you
can't spill it out upon upon them. And if you are, you're gonna spill
it out on them whether you try it or not. That's the truth of the
matter. Right? That's the truth of the matter. If I go and we hang
out with a bodybuilder, if a bodybuilder was hanging out with
us, every single day of our lives at some point or other, right, we
probably
catch on and pick up you know some of his habits right? It's gonna
spill onto us the love of fitness, which wouldn't the love of fitness
spill onto us? At least someone's got a spill onto us. So this
sweetness is in your heart and the sweetness can only enter nearby
correct your opti the number one study Akita. Okay, number correct
your Arcada number to
avoid since Yatta, you cannot taste anything good if you keep
putting soy sauce on it. If I have honey, and I got dessert, but
someone has keeps putting soy sauce on my dessert. I'm not going
to taste it. It's going to be sweet and mixed. It's going to be
terrible. Right? And that's why many people they don't enjoy their
deen and they don't. They don't taste it. In the heart. They don't
even know what we're talking about. Right? Because all they've
gotten used to is
filth inside the heart.
But if you purify your heart from sins, and you do a lot of
remembrance of Allah Now pour on the remembrance pour on that
honey, put it all on syrup. Every liquid is like a different flavor
of syrup. You go to these pancake shops now they give you like three
or four. There's maple syrup, classic syrup, whatever syrup,
pecan syrup, every thicker is like a different syrup. Imagine that
you're being poured onto your heart. Now if you're when you're
in that * in that mode and that mood,
it won't be possible for you to contain it. You will express so
much such a natural love towards them and a forgiveness towards
these people in your home
and a generosity towards them. Okay, that is going to enter them
to
that is real Dawa. Okay, so even if you gotta lay down the law,
sometimes you will lay down the law in a way that
is soft, too. There is a soft way of laying down the law. Right?
So
really, if you work we have to work on ourselves. If we work on
ourselves, we can be the best we are pres
Since in our homes will be the Dawa, just our presence and we
won't have to say much.
Which one of Salah WalletHub Salawat is best for reading at
midnight Salah turn Gina
and Salah toughie Jia.
Salah Neria is Salah. tangina Right, right. So Lanata yeah and

Nadia and Cameron has the same thing. And then Tiffany Jia is
another one that's really amazing.
Can you explain the concept of Baraka Sure. What is the concept
of Baraka concept of Baraka is the concept that the idea that Allah
Tala increases blessings we're having, are we having a light
flicker here? Is there a light flickering here? Do you see it?
You see it in the stream? Okay? Because I don't know if it's my
eyes or it's that it's that light flickering, right? It's the camera
what is why is it flickering for
okay?
So
Baraka means increase,
it means and Baraka, it means that a small amount will last you far
more than we would have materially imagined. That's what Baraka
means. A small amount of action takes you far. The opposite of it
is Lana, where a lot does not satisfy, right? They have a lot of
money, but you're still unhappy.
Baraka is you have a little bit of money, but everyone's happy,
right? That's the concept of Baraka. And Baraka comes down
through being good to the vulnerable. That's the first way
to get Baraka be good to the vulnerable. Number two, do a lot
of physical and do a lot of the Kundra
All right.
SR says How should people who are pessimistic
deal with the exception of expectation or requirement when
making.com? Yeah.
Yeah, that's pessimistic in the first place. Your framing of
yourself as pessimistic is the most pessimistic thing you could
do.
You have to change how do you change yourself
will flip your pessimism and tell yourself that
I'm going to be punished if I stop if, if I don't be positive? Right?
I'm going to be punished if I don't obey your Lord, obey Allah
and obey the Prophet peace be upon him who said, have it gone?
Be moved in? Be certain with the job.
chiffon choices when can we expect to have shift use content? It's

Basic you would it's a pre recorded class that you would sign
up for it by going to art view dot O R G. And then it's somebody
alQaeda. And then after watching it a month after we release it,
we're going to have a live stream with him. And he's going to take
q&a.
At Oh Rhoda says if someone has no desire to get married because of a
traumatic experience with men in her past, she does not want to
displease Allah but she knows she cannot fulfill the rights will she
be sinful? No, she won't be the sinfulness is to believe that
monasticism is a better way of religion
than marriage. As for just not marrying for any other reason
that's permitted and believing that I can't fulfill the rights
that's permitted. There are many many people in our setup who
didn't get married, but they didn't avoid marriage believing
it's better. That's a difference.
I get low blood sugar says a plague pig pigeon from fasting.
But I want to fast the do the fast of dough to control desires. What
do you recommend

Mondays and Thursdays. If you're a single guy and you want to do that
just do Mondays and Thursdays.
Sophia says how do we understand Allah saying in Nara Biala Surah
they musta team? It means in Amara Biala serata Mr. Cream in the
command of in Nairobi, Allah salata, Mr. K, my Lord is on the
straight path. What does it mean? It means the command of my Lord is
on the straight path. The guidance of my Lord is on the straight
path. Okay, there's a MacArthur there MacArthur means and assumed
there. Right? Because Allah has, it's impossible for a lot to be on
a path. A path means that there's right behavior and wrong behavior,
right. You can fall off the path or stay on the path. You can go
backwards or forwards. So
Hola todos, not on a machete of any sort. So, it means in Umbra be
Allah Siddhartha Mr. Clean wayah de la Salatin was stepping his
command guides to a straight path. Snake juice says, on the concept
of ignorant walked living in the moment, what can you impart on
living in the now
living in the now is a branch of gratitude. And it's a branch of
attentiveness to Allah subhanaw taala in the, in the idea that it
is the concept of
every moment, we have to have Shehu, that Mina, to who then
Mina, also known as wet, wet at a shoe hood, which is to only see
things as a namah from ALLAH SubhanA wa, it's at every moment,
at every moment, never stopping.
Right? Which is why the worship of other things.
And you always see this with athletes, what do they worship
their sport, right? Well, that sport, you can only enjoy it.
When it's game time, you can only enjoy it before you reach a
certain age and you have to retire. And they really their
heads get really warped when they have to retire. Their biggest love
is being ripped out of their hands, and given to somebody else,
and they can't ever do it again.
So Allah has freed us from those loves and those attachments to the
concept, an idea that you're with Allah at every moment, at every
moment, this is a gift, and how you choose to perceive it is what
you're going to get out of it. If Allah says in Allah, Allah mille
ly a MILA TAMIU, Allah does not get bored until you get bored,
what is the meaning of getting bored means not giving?
And what is that meaning of we get bored, not expecting, right? So if
you come in and you're like, oh, everything's boring. Okay? Allah
was not gonna give you that, right? That's the meaning of that
hadith. He's not gonna give you anything. He's not gonna show you
anything. But if you come in, as, at this moment, edit every single
moment is a moment of wonder and awe and amazement, right? As long
as you're in that state, then Allah is going to give you that
he's going to open doors for you, then amazing things will happen.
Right? So you have to be in the State of Belief first, that's whom
Allah gives his gifts to. And that's the concept of ignorant
works, that at every moment, they're in that state. So at every
moment, something new is being like, shown to them unveil to
them, a gift is being given to them. Even our thought says, these
earlier, they wake up asking themselves, what will Allah do
with me today? That means I'm like, I'm in the arena of Allah
subhanaw taala, it's something new is going to happen every single
day.
Something different is going to happen. A lot. Whatever happens,
Allah's bringing it. So he's got to be a wisdom behind it.
That's the concept. Adam says How does one who cannot fast lessen
their food intake?
Okay.
Stop lust. So that means the person cannot fast because of a
medical reason.
How do they stop their lust? Will you stop your lust by decreasing
certain foods that arouse yourself? So I think that a lot of
sugar, for example, may arouse somebody may get you excited,
certain creamy foods, the creaminess of foods, cream and
sugar combined will sort of arouse somebody that's one thing. Another
thing is ask yourself.
When do people commit these lustful sins? I don't think people
commit these lustful sins at three in the afternoon, for example,
right? Probably more midnight, people commit these sins when
nobody's looking, when they're home alone, when there's no work,
etc. So how do you stop this sleep early? Push it, knock yourself
out, right? You go to sleep.
Try to do those things, try to cut the time in which you do this. You
may not be able to lessen your intake, but you can lessen the
type of food that is excitable to a person.
SP says I was trying to purchase Arabic, the Arabic grammar book

Are there any books you recommend regarding this topic? Which topic
were we
talking about? First of all? Because because this is
a comment from before so so which topic are you specifically talking
about? Here's here comes a question from zhu li what is
Islamic way of getting to know yourself? This is easy. And it's
amazing.
You set up little wars between yourself
and the prohibitions of the Cydia, that's where you're going to get
to know yourself in that battle, you're going to get to know
yourself there are obligations, and there are prohibitions of the
Cydia
is the first way in which you're going to get to know yourself. And
you must do this first. So the city has told me stop this, you
want to get to know who you are. Let's see You stop it said he
asked us do this. You want to get to know who you are, what you're
made out of? Go do it.
Right. That's the first way. You have to do that first. What's the
second way? The second way is offer something to society? What
do you have to offer to society that tells you about who you are?
Your natural gifts will come out? Like what can you do that nobody
else could do?
What can you do in society that nobody else could do? Because
that's where you're going to be useful. Don't do something that
everyone else is doing? Unless you're doing it in a way that no
one else is doing.
Right? So that's the second way the third way have a family.
It will really really reveal a lot about you how you interact with
them over time, not just one time over time.
The question about the book he meant books so payment books
regarding IP networks. I'd have no knowledge of this to be honest

Abdullah us I think my questions were skipped right let's go up to
Abdullah us because he's a plaintiff right now.
Abdullah us
Muhammad is OB Kenna Kevin to give you hazard Yes What should you say
to get rid of it suited to follow kanessa No rod of the morning in
the evening
and Masha Allah say Masha Allah He doesn't say you say for him
Abdullah us can you explain the difference between acceptable
abortion and not and when and why it is allowed? Firstly, we have a
video on this number one
can one use means like foods or medicines to prevent her stopped
and assumed pregnancy? So birth control or immediately stopping a
pregnancy right after so that's what they call Plan B it's like a
$75 bill
okay
the answer is that abortion is permitted there's different
methods on this okay. And the and I recommend you go back to that
video and watch the first so that summarizing here may take a while
but the general summary is that abortion is different upon
before it's agreed it's different upon for no one it's no reason for
40 days for the first 40 days and there's no reasons to do it is
different upon some from permitted to sinful but not murder
it's different upon the first 40 It is different but then the
second engine 20 days is different upon with the medic he's holding
that it's murder if there's no reason for it because the medic
your whole installment to be at 40 days not 120 days
that's the first thing you got to know
Secondly, after 120 days it is agreed upon that if the mother is
to die
then abortion is permitted that's agreed upon
Canadian Maliki he says he's got these glasses now um is the best
glasses mashallah this this shape and everything. Not a fan of
rectangular glasses. First of all, how do you see the ice to have
rectangular us
Have you got them too? I used to have the rectangles and you see
lines right? So you see his lungs. I used to hate those.
Alright, so I'll tell us we've answered his question.
I Sophie is Sala Sala Tiffany Jia? It's on Salawat sabe may have a
different name, though.
Can the love of dunya and akhira coexist? Yes, it can, right? But
in that case for a moment, it will not necessarily, he can transform
his dunya into a way in which he gains the web.
So,
say 90 Give us the formula for this. Say now, it was one scene
drinking cool, cold water and on a hot day, and his father said,
Father, I thought you don't do this. Because in those times, the
way of this ahead the ascetics is that
they wouldn't drink cold water, they just drink room temperature
water, right, because cold water was a big deal for them. So what
they did, what he did was he said, Oh, son, I want to extrapolate the
gratitude out of my heart. I want to take the sugar out of my heart.
And that's basically what why he enjoyed the NEMA. So we enjoy the
NEMA knowing it's going to increase his in love of the money
in the giver of the gifts we enjoy the gift knowing that it's going
to make us love the giver of the gift even more and be thankful
even more. That's the way to do it.
Where should you look during the prayer and the Madison method

shut have a DSL
Ibrahim Khan, is it appropriate after making dua? We answered this
Gucci
isn't love of dunya it's just a waste of money.
Ibrahim Khan What is this day two or day three of you asking that
you really got that want that Gucci shirt? So Ibrahim Khan is
asking you about a t shirt. What does it have to do with me? Let's
see brain card.
What is he saying here?
Can the love of dunya and akhira coexist? I think it's that right?
Okay.
Is it true that it was advised against memorizing the Quran too
fast?
No, it's It's advised from reciting the Quran without any
thoughtfulness. That's what's that's what's discouraged. The
discouragement is reciting the Quran without any thoughtfulness.
Alright, let's go to Facebook.
These poor guys get ignored.
How is the decoder ring going think a ring is very it's a very
good thing to me. It's working very well.
Should we let's get more.
Okay, good. We'll do that. So, Sabra what will the status of the

that I follow. But I like another school of thought.
Yes.
Mufti Ibrahim. He likes another school of thought and follow that
does that make me sinful? It's not sinful, but you're not on the
right track. That's not the right way to do things.
I'm going to read the question to myself now before because I'm
reading questions and that's turning out to be comments between
people.
Sophia says and Susan and I'm a number 120 for the name of Allah
appears twice with no separation. I heard it as a place to make dua
Is this true? Allah Allah but there's definitely no harm in
doing that.
Oh, when I you know, this person asked about the diet and says they
said they're referring to something that you mentioned in
the past midnight Yeah.
a minute.
Oh yes the best Salawat segment Allahumma salli wa salam ala
Sayidina Muhammad
sallahu wa salatu salam Camella wa salam Salam and Tammen an enemy in
turn Hello Bill awkward with an Fareed you'll be caught up we took
the baby and how it went to Nairobi hospital for our team. We

Ludington Hello, Bay locket, what's in Farraj? With Kuramoto?

many room much relief if you have a class,
much relief.
Is it permissible to do Torah home on Christians and Jews from before
Islam? says Adam and the answer is look, we don't know their state.
Unless they were followers of a prophet of course.
When Allah loves someone, Ibrahim Khan says when Allah loves
someone, he makes others love them. So then why are like
actresses, actors and other people who are not on the path of truth?
love so much? Because when it says when Allah loves someone who makes
others love them, it means the pious, the pious believers. That's
what it means. It doesn't mean everybody what you will the level
of Kabbalah fill out Wilaya and Willa, one of the signs of someone
has been made Awali is that you thou level cabal of Earth, that
means in the earth he's accepted, in whose hearts the hearts of the
moon, we need the pious Muslims, not everybody on earth.
How many times should the Salawat come in and be read at night, if
you can do 100, then that is best. And that's just like a number that
ultimates talked about that it has worked for them. So the basis of
that is tend to be
trial and error.
Chief Latif and only take a couple more questions.
There's a lot of cross contamination in restaurants, is
it required to ask a waiter or a cashier? If there's cross
contamination, that's why we should really be No, no, you're
not required to go into the molecular level of things. That's
the truth. You're not required to do that. As long as the general
food and the process is valid for you. That's all you're required to
do.
Adam says, are sorry, I'm agenda says is making dua or cook, but in
a melodic tone allowed.
There are some statements that is mcru, but it's not going to
invalidate it.
Had enough? Is it bad to wear discernibly religious clothing
that were gifts and out of love for the pious without being
qualified like a scholar?
The only thing that is forbidden for us to wear is if any society
has a garment that is for a Mufti. So in the old days, the large
turban was only worn by minorities, so that you know that
you can ask him a question the same way that walking around with
a police outfit is illegal. impersonating a doctor wearing a
doctor's outfit and walk around the hospital is probably going to
get you the security will set you down. Because people ask you
medical questions and you're not qualified. As long as you avoid
that, that's fine. But if you're going to dress in a certain way,
now people are going to start asking you questions and then
getting misguided, right, then no, then you shouldn't just like that.
Register says can you come to Dallas a law and we'll host you

COVID death is
a COVID death is Shahad because there are many automat when they
spoke about it, they said it counts as a playgroup, or not a
plague but contagion. A contagion and the Prophet promised shahada
for the one who dies in a contagion

Ladies and gentlemen, very unfortunately, we must stop here.
I wish we can continue doing q&a. But we can't.
And the Facebookers since they always get ignored Sandhya Warsi
What is the method of doing such that? So?
That's a Facebook question. And that is something that will take a
while but there are eight things if you miss them. I'm just gonna
say it once and you have to rewind it after the stream is over. Eight
things if you forget them.
Then before you send them out, you do two sujood and then you repeat
that to here and then you send them out and these eight things
are
the you forgot to recite the second suitor after Fattah in the
first two records. You recited what should have been silent out
loud or what is out loud silent.
And you skipped by accident, either one or the two Tisha hoods.
You did not say something Allahu luminometer
You did not say Allahu Akbar. In any of the movements besides the
first tip could be it but first Dignitas photo, of course, any
takeaway after that.
And you did not sit for the episode. You said that to shahada
in any other situation? That's eight.
I'm not gonna repeat them again because we got to go but just you
can just rewind them. Okay, and clip it and then you will watch
that portion over and over and over until you memorize it. Can
all your they could be Salawat says pearls of prayer Yes.
But of course we're not going to avoid reading the Quran. Right?
But besides the Quran can be also what glitter says thank you I
loved especially your episode on the bee venom by the way they
clipped that that was clipped and made into another video. So it's a
standing video by itself that you can read about and you can see
about
bee venom and Ryan will put the the
put it up now. There it's on the right up. Yeah, there you go.
Right under there.
The venom
it's an amazing thing because ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada says from
the stomach of the DEA, not honey. He didn't just say honey, right?
It doesn't include just honey it includes the venom too and maybe
even more, right because this Yakubu Min boltonia from its
stomach show problem of telephone and Wi
