00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			Respected brothers,
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:08
			we are all aware that the greatest power
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:20
			won us the greatest favor, the greatest blessing, which Allah has conferred upon us. Is the
blessing, the favor the pool of money.
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:22
			What are
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:29
			the selector? What do you do? What do you want to accomplish in this world?
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:41
			A central bank is of no real consequence. Because you don't have the tickets that makes it eligible
for success and
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			has the greatest weight
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:46
			without
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:53
			reservation of demand. The question is, what is the second way to count?
		
00:01:59 --> 00:01:59
			votes?
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:12
			Without the greatest bounty of a law, the second grade is not a law upon a human is the bounty of
knowledge. Why?
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:14
			Because this
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:29
			answers the question, every human, at some point to the other This question was more cross your
mind? That why am I even created? What's the purpose of migration? What am I supposed to do with my
life? And
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:36
			what
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:37
			do
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:39
			I have created?
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:41
			for it?
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			We don't understand what we
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:46
			mean.
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:58
			In English translated as worship, which is only one aspect, one dimension, one facet of it. Because
if I was only limited to worship,
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:04
			intuition, and you're not supposed to be spending the entire day and the duration of
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:08
			our life, or to be reporting on
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			those acts, which are by
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:20
			no means that at any given time.
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:32
			That's the meaning of any context, in any moment in your life because no one wants to do it.
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:33
			And
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:35
			once you do,
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:46
			committed business and pray, investors means do your business as per the instructions of Allah in
accordance with a certain number.
		
00:03:48 --> 00:04:05
			So when you enter into the business arena, you need to know what is permissible and what is not in
order to do what is pleasing to Allah and abstain from what is displeasing to Allah. In other words,
to fulfill the mandate of I bother you need knowledge.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:28
			Knowledge is not something which is exclusive for the scholars. It's a higher level of knowledge.
Every Muslim has to know what about once at any given moment in their lives. So if you're married,
it becomes mandatory upon you to know the rules of marriage. If you become a parents, it's important
to know the
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:42
			parents even if you're not a businessman, per se, definitely human transacts you go down to the shop
and you purchase the bread, you buy those transactions, there are rules that
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:44
			say
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:59
			that it is mandatory, obligatory compulsory for every Muslim male and female to seek knowledge in
these different aspects. that in order for you to fulfill the order
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:09
			Technically, your life is that any moment I must be me, I must be coming back for law in order to
fulfill that
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:32
			necessary knowledge, the economic part of your life, the social part of your life, the intimate part
of your life, even the time of his adult education is an argument they are known exploiting all of
us. And that is not exclusive to humans, those directions are gentle to you. So every Muslim is
expected to know those things. And there
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:54
			is bound to follow after demand is about knowledge, knowledge, you don't know what the law was from
you, you don't know how to conduct yourself in the different dimensions of your existence in the
different stages of your life, in the different areas of how you conduct yourself. And if you don't
know
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:59
			you didn't put this in your your
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:03
			you see fit.
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:15
			But you're not doing it in a way that nobody wants you to do it an extra security to the one that
goes with it. Having said that, so what do we miss, is that knowledge is the second greatest.
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:27
			Firstly, we must get this misnomer this misconception out of our minds, that knowledge is only for
the scholars. It's only for those who are academically inclined at different levels of knowledge.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:36
			For scholars for those who want to be experts in political science, but the basic levels it's
mandatory upon.
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:39
			And the second misconception
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:53
			is that knowledge and the seeking of knowledge is not limited to adolescence, to your teenage years,
to those years, when you formally enrolled in this institute, is an ongoing process that
		
00:06:54 --> 00:07:05
			is upon us to refresh that on a very regular basis that we don't know it remains obligatory upon us
to constantly seek the answers to those questions, because
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:49
			I would want it to be our knowledge of what Allah wants from us, our knowledge of what Allah expects
from us, other types of knowledge, what is knowledge pertaining to your religious, that the other
is, will be fine. in a broad sense, everything falls within the definition of knowledge. Because
geography, talks about geography, even science, science, even medicine expects us to live a happy
life, to look after our physical well being, but they are always levels and everything is levels.
Now, the analogy to people sometimes, some people don't like to go
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:54
			into semantics, let's leave the terminologies out of
		
00:07:56 --> 00:08:08
			understanding the principles. In life, everything is always levels. And the higher the level, the
greater the degree of priority. So for the purposes of this course, this afternoon, we will refer to
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:10
			the knowledge
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:21
			that knowledge which relates to our existence in this world, not only is it important, not only is
it permissible, it's emphasizing it because it's
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:23
			on mass. And
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			right now, we
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:28
			need to survive.
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:41
			And we need to live in this world. So we need to have the expertise of the relevant sciences of this
world in order to request the existence of even prosper. And the oma was
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			tight when it was dealing
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:52
			with a mathematical field in the technological field, in the philosophical field, when Muslims were
experts.
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:58
			Why because you're not dependent on anybody else or anything else.
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:08
			So when we sciences and the pursuit of the knowledge is not only permitted,
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:21
			but it never comes to the level of religious knowledge, of the knowledge Why? Because the knowledge
is what you do with the salvation in
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:25
			your existence in this world can be compromised,
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:31
			but it can be compromised, and you will only have to bear the consequence for the duration of
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:37
			compromise the consequences,
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:47
			the consequences and everlasting so the first reason why worldly knowledge cannot be equated with
the knowledge is because the knowledge
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:52
			it's got to do with the salvation of your yard. Secondly,
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:59
			you need your Ed knowledge to guide the sciences. So you go in it
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:08
			If you study Business Economics, you go into an accountant, but how do you conduct yourself within
the parameters of the in that particular field
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:29
			in order to implement the world is finances in a way that is compliant with a B, you need the basic
knowledge of some working knowledge is hinged, is dependent on the knowledge if you want to live the
life of people, if you want to live the life of an alligator.
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:42
			So, therefore, we need to understand that there are two types of knowledge, the knowledge and the
knowledge, the wisdom knowledge has its benefits, and it has its place is the moment of my
trivializing
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:51
			or diminish in any way has its place. But remember, like Islam, it's not there to be kind of your
sister.
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:57
			Your Mother, did you ever equate time your sister with your mother
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:08
			and your brother in between times coupon because it is understood that the mother has a degree in
the system, the father has
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:09
			a brother
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:12
			it's emphasized,
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:18
			but never tend to equate it to kindness to the mother. Similarly, worldly knowledge
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:30
			has its place in the but never can be equated to the knowledge not in theory, and definitely not in
practice, if you want to.
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:32
			Not
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:42
			easy to be in never be equal to geography and science and medicine and everything else. But in
practice, we rely on our own theory and
		
00:11:45 --> 00:12:06
			today, we need to understand something that we have to give priority. When it comes to our own
education. When it comes to the education of our children. We are giving priority to the sciences
over divine revelation over the knowledge, what is supposed to be the other way around. And the
consequences is there for us to see.
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:10
			It's always and it's a cancer which is eating away.
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:17
			This victimology is something
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:25
			that is compulsory for every individual, no exceptions, like
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:27
			if
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:31
			you can see, for people
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:34
			that is exempt, and Firstly,
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:52
			it's compulsory upon the collective but there's always a few individuals required except the rest
absorb. So to perform Java is perfectly fine. If nobody does it, everybody says a few people do it
when I say those are adequate for the various
		
00:12:54 --> 00:13:03
			worldly sciences and the pursuit of worldly sciences falls in the category of first second. It is
mandatory for us as a number
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:13
			of doctors, adequate number of accountants an adequate number of engineers to see when people go by
the community, it was up to 80
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:17
			bucks to learn the basics of the
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:26
			it's compulsory upon every made every female a young, old black white, which
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:38
			that should help us understand how to prioritize brings me to the to the point that I wanted to
really drive home this afternoon and that is the aspect of mobilization.
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:42
			The market system
		
00:13:43 --> 00:13:47
			used to be at the point of the South Africans to come in.
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:54
			I can tell you from my experience, that when we go into the South African markets
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:03
			comparatively speaking, you have majority Muslim countries like Indonesia, South Africa,
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:11
			South Africa, Caribbean and this is your access system for various
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:15
			points of them for the memory one
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:22
			is this. The wife is a good cook everybody else in terms of food but you don't. You buy Coronavirus
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:37
			that's the strategy we devised. We developed something that is the envy of the world. You get people
who come from countries and say we would like to adopt your your
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:46
			your syllabus and take you to our countries even though we live in the developed world like the UK
or the US
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:47
			yet
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:50
			the numbers are dwindling now
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:56
			that we are exporting to the rest of the world. We
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:14
			When a child is going through the adolescence, once I said that the seeking of knowledge is not
limited to the spirit of life, it's an ongoing thing. But it's the only time in life or opportunity.
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:32
			Later on in life, you have to make time because you've got a job and commitments and
responsibilities. This is the only time in your life where you have time. And when you can make a
formal commitment. Yes, yet we see on an annual basis.
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:44
			We see on an annual basis, people sending their children to very much academic schools, which takes
two hours to go in two hours.
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:53
			This is the only time in life, the child has an opportunity to formally live.
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:57
			And this is the most impressionable.
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:02
			It's not only about learning,
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:05
			it's about learning.
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:10
			It's about developing an identity is
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:24
			it is about a deeply rooted consciousness, which has developed a model so that for the rest of the
life of the world, they can distinguish between right and wrong, they can disregard what is
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:26
			today.
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:33
			To the extent we cannot wait for me to know
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:37
			that
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:47
			then you want to know why your marriage is failing. And later on in life when you age, and your
child isn't enough for you. That is to say, don't
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:53
			say that don't even say this to your parents. Never take your time to reach the point
		
00:16:56 --> 00:16:58
			that talks about the status of parents.
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:04
			When Islam says that it's compulsory and magnificently upon everything.
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:16
			To learn the basics of tea, the definition of basics is much broader than what you and I understand
much more what we need to understand what we fail to understand.
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:29
			When you look at the list of things to insure against value, you assess the greatest value, your
wife, maybe you divorce, your wife, maybe you're in love.
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:33
			But you never fall out of love with your children.
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:59
			You will make sacrifices on your personal front, in order for your child to prosper, then how is it
that you're investing in Your time's worth your academic education so that we can live in this world
but you're not investing adequately in the education so that they can live the good life in the
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:00
			West?
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:07
			Where's the citizen is a licensed clinician with a couple who enforce the
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:12
			law, save yourself and your family.
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:18
			By giving your children the necessary amount of the
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:23
			so that they know what is pleasing to Allah and what is pleasing to Allah.
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:28
			The pursuit of monetary worth is not only permissible,
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:36
			but not at the expense of living on it. Not and never at the expense of inequalities.
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:54
			Free you want to go go and be the best secretary. But it's a certainly the person is an expert in
this field. Everyone takes advice from him. When it comes to the mistake. He's not it'll be So, so
efficient.
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:00
			He says excellent.
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:10
			Minister, when it comes to performing a fundamental of the floor, it's more go to see how many
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:12
			how many
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:17
			people's understanding of Islamic economics
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:25
			How much do we know about the concept of marriage? The values that go with it the rules and
regulations with all
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:37
			of us. And it's a cycle that perpetuates because you don't necessarily need a division
		
00:19:38 --> 00:19:41
			when the child and the mother has first maxo
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:43
			forgets,
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:53
			did you leave your partner? If you go over your ID, what message message that you said and then one
child does exactly the same.
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:55
			They do exactly the same.
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			So what am I doing?
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:01
			reinvested into work,
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:05
			and severely under invested.
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:28
			And this is creating people who are experts in worldly sciences, but efficient in the understanding
of the patient to be at the basis of he goes way beyond just the performance. Sine Wave is the
benefits of be more so than ever before we need today. In the
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:36
			in the midst of all the negativity against Islam, we need to boost Islamic identity.
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:39
			We just want to say that
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:43
			it was a totally No, there was no way
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:45
			there was no
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:53
			there was no need to cover the face if we if we did why, what are the values
		
00:20:55 --> 00:21:02
			can't achieve that in one hour a day two hours a week of medicine, you can achieve that by saving a
ton
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:04
			of money.
		
00:21:05 --> 00:21:16
			You know, you know what's really amazing is no greater determination by himself. So how much is
necessary when it comes to schooling, you have to follow the experts, the experts
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:19
			12 years before they graduate.
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:24
			If your child wants to become a teacher, you need three years of holistic University
		
00:21:30 --> 00:21:35
			experts how much time I tell you this, no matter what however we propose.
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:47
			When it comes to world, the sciences, we hand it over to the experts to determine how much time we
require for the world education of our children.
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:55
			Tell us how much time is enough and what what service is used and which
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:07
			one is limited.
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:12
			Now we are going to make the wall of
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:16
			the house of our Lord
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:20
			Jesus Christ.
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:24
			You taking a young impressionable
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:31
			who knows nothing you put in environments when you expect them to do.
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:37
			Even if they do, it's going to be compromised, at best.
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:41
			identities compromised at worst.
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:53
			I don't say don't say good schools have a sense of not that. We're talking about school. There's so
much of extracurricular activity there's so much of every time I
		
00:22:58 --> 00:22:59
			come to my house.
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:03
			That's what we use if you
		
00:23:05 --> 00:23:09
			are suffering from intellectual apostasy physically,
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:14
			but mentally doubting the fundamentals of B because
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:21
			we talk all the time about the physical warfare against Islam in this
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:33
			region. The negativity about Islamic concepts of Islamic principles. We haven't given them enough
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:43
			foundation of understanding when it comes to be so how can you expect them to prosper is good.
However we expected
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:51
			we expected it to be our greatest our greatest power.
		
00:23:53 --> 00:24:04
			And the second greatest demand is knowledge. Because knowledge was able to determine whether you are
at home whether you are in the bedroom, whether you are at work, whether you are socializing with
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:06
			knowledge
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:10
			and knowledge.
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:25
			without knowledge, you can lose your way and ultimately lose your human. So when we look at
education of our children, our own education by all means give them the best world in the world.
		
00:24:26 --> 00:24:29
