			Imam Shaltibi
		
00:00:01 --> 00:00:03
			is someone that you should know,
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			one of your ancestors from Ishbeliyah,
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:07
			from far
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:09
			Western Andalus.
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:11
			And,
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			he was blind.
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:14
			And he he composed a poem. It's more
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:16
			than a 1,000 lines,
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19
			which discusses the different ways to read the
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:20
			Quran, the usul
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:21
			and the farosh.
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:24
			Can you imagine? That's our ummah.
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:27
			That's what our blind people did.
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:30
			That's us. Not only that, man, he went
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:30
			to Quds.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			Well, can you shed your salahuddin?
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:35
			He went to Quds and he went and,
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:36
			like, encouraged salahuddin
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:38
			to handle his business.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:41
			But in his poem, he says,
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:51
			He
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			said you have to know that the rope
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:55
			of god amongst us is the Quran.
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			It's called
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			because the is something that you grab on
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:01
			to
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			in a time of need to reach a
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:05
			goal, to accomplish something.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			And for us, the prophet
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			said that the Quran
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			is is the rope of god extending from
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:15
			the heavens
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			that we are responsible for holding up. This
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:19
			is a good hadith.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			I say that because sometimes I find people
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:23
			like oh
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			Quran is hard or,
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			you know, I struggle with it, but nobody
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:29
			struggles with Netflix.
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:32
			Nobody struggles to watch The Office.
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:34
			You know what I'm saying? Nobody struggles to
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			play
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			the new PS 5.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			Why is it that shaitan
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			and our nafs make us feel like the
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:42
			Quran is something we can't handle?
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:45
			But the sheikh, he says,
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:48
			so make jihad with it.
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			I mean, you gotta make jihad against yourself
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			to have a relationship with it.
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			That's why said about
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:00
			that Quran
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			in the form
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:04
			is You know what I mean?
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:07
			That there's gonna be some opposition,
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			that the book won't come easy to you.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			But I can say this,
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			start to give at least 5 minutes a
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:16
			day for the Quran,
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			Get back with me after 1 month, and
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:22
			tell me how you feel after that.
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:24
			And you tell me about the unlimited
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:25
			doors
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			that Allah will
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			open for you
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			when you have a relationship with his book,
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:32
			with his words.
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			There's no better way to get close to
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:35
			Allah
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:37
			except with his words.
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			When someone came to say
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			and said, how do I get close to
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			Allah? He said, I know a no easier
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:46
			way
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:49
			than with his words. So make a little
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:49
			effort, man.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:51
			Struggle a little,
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:54
			Push ourselves a little
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:56
			and see where the Quran takes
