We got a good number of questions that came in from some high

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

schoolers.

00:00:05 --> 00:00:09

But before we get going, as anyone who's here, can they tell me if

00:00:09 --> 00:00:10

the sound is up or not?

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

Alright, is good. All right? So we have a good number of questions

00:00:15 --> 00:00:18

here that came from high schoolers. And I've always had a

00:00:18 --> 00:00:22

philosophy when it comes to high schoolers is that I'm really not a

00:00:22 --> 00:00:27

fan of the gimmicky stuff like, get bring a pizza, do this and

00:00:27 --> 00:00:31

that, and whatnot. I really believe that a high school kids,

00:00:31 --> 00:00:35

even if they're even less than that seventh and eighth grade,

00:00:35 --> 00:00:39

people have questions and people appreciate answers. And people

00:00:39 --> 00:00:44

appreciate thought provoking ideas. And people appreciate

00:00:45 --> 00:00:50

content that that is valuable. And I for myself, I've never when I

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

was young, I never went to a teacher because he was cool.

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

Right? In fact, that was the opposite. The teacher is almost

00:00:56 --> 00:01:01

you could say, we're not cool, right? And you just sort of listen

00:01:01 --> 00:01:07

to them. But yeah, I do recognize that there are some avenues that

00:01:07 --> 00:01:11

are needed for purely just socialization that people just

00:01:11 --> 00:01:15

need to socialize. I get that. But I think that we oftentimes

00:01:16 --> 00:01:20

underestimate the intelligent questions that high schoolers

00:01:20 --> 00:01:22

have, and in our Masjid

00:01:24 --> 00:01:29

some of the girls really serious questions that require some really

00:01:29 --> 00:01:32

serious answers and knowledge and the this is what I think is the

00:01:32 --> 00:01:35

most important thing when it comes to youth and whatnot. So I have

00:01:35 --> 00:01:40

here a list of questions that some some high schoolers brought forth

00:01:40 --> 00:01:44

that that they need. You know, they need real answers to

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

the off

00:01:52 --> 00:01:53
