			what occurred uncertainly I was selling now we sent Isla de moda to some old a home their brother
slowly Han slowly are they his salaam, to the people of the mode, the nation of the mood Allah sent
the Prophet Saleh early salaam to them, an arugula her that you all worship Allah this was the main
message of who Salah hurry Salam, that all people worship Allah meaning worship Allah alone. But
what happened for either then at once immediately home the meaning the nation of the mood, the
people of the mood, what happened to them, they became very con two groups duel of the word filioque
for you is one group, one party and for your con, two groups, two parties. So the nation that was
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:51
			one now became divided. They turned into two parties that were yo del C moon, they were disputing.
They were arguing they were conflicting meaning they became very different from one another. And
where they were one now they became divided. The word Yocto C mon is from if disarm from the word
hos and Paul saw me. And if the psalm is basically when one group stands up against the other.
		
00:03:52 --> 00:04:37
			You see, sometimes people have differences, they disagree with each other, and that is fine. But
when those differences lead to hostilities, that one is, let's say talking bad about the other
openly opposing the other being hostile towards the other. This is if the fun. So this division
wasn't just a disunity in their beliefs, rather it kind of split the entire nation for either a
notice the word for either, that immediately, as soon as solid as salam did his Dawa. He called
people to worship Allah alone. What happened immediately the nation was divided. How did the nation
become divided that some people believed in Solihull, a Salah, and the majority of the people did
		
00:04:37 --> 00:05:00
			not believe in Him? And because of this difference in their faith? What happened? It led to
division. It led to much hostility. And this was mainly because saleha listen, and when he did
Darwin to the people, many people yes, they accept it. But those who did not believe in him, what
did they do? They opposed him. This is what leads to further to
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:40
			Vision just like the Prophet sallallaahu Salam in Mecca. What happened when he called people to
worship Allah alone. Initially there was no problem. But what happened? Those who did not want to
believe in Him, they became hostile towards him. The prophets on a lot of sudden would go on telling
people or people worship Allah, you will be successful. All right, Guru La ilaha illa, Allah to
Pharaoh, he was conveying his message. And we all you know talk about freedom of speech and all of
that, right to the Prophet sallallahu Sallam had all the right to say, Guru La ilaha illallah to
flee hope, right? He was not insulting their idols. He was not insulting the people who worshipped
		
00:05:40 --> 00:06:26
			idols. He just said Worship Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah. That's all he said. But what happened? Abu
Lahab he started the hostility how that he would go around behind the Prophet sallallahu Sallam
ridiculing him, ridiculing him, insulting him, in front of people. This is what led to tensions.
This is what led to people splitting up from each other. We learn about, for example, so I'm going
to be with Casa de la on who also we learn about Musab informado, de la noir, and who so many
companions, when they believed it was their own families. It was their own tribes. It was their own
parents, their own brothers, their own uncles, their own aunts that turned against them. They're the
		
00:06:26 --> 00:07:12
			ones who started the violence didn't like for example, we learned about Earth's mantle below and
who, how his uncle would wrap him up in a mat and put that mat on fire until the smoke would bother
him inside, below the law and who when he believed what happened to him. We all know about the
stories of the way he was persecuted. Right? So, you know, many times Islam or religion is blamed
for problems in the world, isn't it? I mean, doesn't matter which era you're looking at which place
in the world you're looking at anywhere you go. any period of time, the president or any art from
the history you study, Islam or religion in general is blamed for what? For War for bloodshed, for
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:31
			division, and all of that. Yeah, generally all the problems in the world, the blame is put on who on
religion on Islam, on Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam on Muslims. But if you think about it is Islam what
started the problems? No, it was the people who opposed Islam.
		
00:07:32 --> 00:08:18
			Just study the Sierra. Right? You all are studying the zero 13 years in Makkah, the Muslims were
victims of persecution isn't at all. Even though they wanted to take revenge, they were not allowed
to. Again and again, they were told, be patient, be patient, be patient. But then after 13 years,
when the Muslims migrated to Medina, and still the witch seeking did not leave them, of course, now
you're supposed to defend yourself. Right? So something similar happened at the time of Salah
holiday salaam, that when he called people to worship Allah alone, immediately there was a split in
the nation. Why was there the split? Because those who disbelieved in him didn't just disbelieve in
		
00:08:18 --> 00:09:06
			Him, they oppose him. They insulted him. They ridiculed Him. And as a result, the people that were
won now became divided for either who for your colony Yeah, they'll see moon they stood up against
each other in total alpha 7576 We learn all manner Alladhina stuck Ballroom in homie lil Latina,
Stawberry food lemon, Eminem in home, the elite the leaders amongst this nation. They said to those
who believed in Solihull SLM, they asked them and those who believed in Solihull SLM who were they?
They were weak, they were poor. They said to the believers in solid hernia, salam, Uttara Munna and
masala Han masala Mirabai Do you really know how do you know that really? He is a messenger from his
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:47
			Lord ALU in Nabi mal Odyssey Lobi. He mocked me no, they said we believe in him. They said we
believe in Salah. So what was the response of these leaders on a Latina stock borrow in Villa de
Amman to be careful, don't we disbelieve in what you believe in? So it seems as though initially it
wasn't a big deal. If somebody believed in Salah Hello Sam didn't believe it was okay. But it was
those who disbelieved inside of her Lisanna who started the problems who started this hostility,
persecution and this led to division. And this is something we need to remember because many times,
you know the prophets Allah Allah Islam is blamed or Islam is blamed, but we need to look at the
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:59
			whole picture. We need to look at the whole context that where is it that hostility started, collar,
Salahuddin Salam he said Yeah, call me all my people. Lima for what?
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:49
			meaning what is the reason? Why is it that the start de Luna bissa ye at the start de Luna, you
hasten for you are impatient for this is from a jeweler or jeweler is to be hasty. And is there a
journalist who want something to happen quickly before it's due time? So why is it that you're
rushing for your impatiently demanding business a year? Say, evil? Why is it that you are
impatiently urging for evil demanding evil OpenURL Hassan before good. Lola the stuff you don't
Allah, why do you not seek forgiveness from Allah? Allah Allah Contura hormone so that you are shown
mercy? What does it mean by this Sunday? Her listen to him, he said to his people, that by your
		
00:10:49 --> 00:11:38
			actions, by your blind denial, what are you demanding? You are demanding Allah's punishment? And
this is what he is referring to? What is the punishment? Allah's punishment? And how is it that they
were rushing for it, hastening for demanding it impatiently? By their blind denial, by their actions
by the worship of an Al Hassan before good? Meaning? Why don't you reflect and believe? Why don't
you think about the message that I'm conveying to you? Because if you were to think about it,
reflect on it, you might find it convincing. And if you believe in it, and you seek forgiveness from
Allah, then you will find good in this life and you will also find good in the next life. Because
		
00:11:38 --> 00:12:25
			isn't that what we ask Allah for? A lot better attina fit dunya has Santa will fill accurate he has
an O Allah give us good in this life and good in the next life. So you are demanding se punishment?
Whereas you should be striving towards Hasina goodness, in this life? And in the next and how is it
that you will receive goodness through belief through Iman? Because when a person believes and does
righteousness that Allah promises them a good life in this world, and also a good life were in the
afterlife? And also remember that the people have solid s&m who disbelieved in him, in their pride,
what did they say? That we're not going to believe in you? And this punishment that you keep
		
00:12:25 --> 00:13:11
			threatening us with? Go ahead, bring it. This is similar to how the majestic enough Maka also
demanded the punishment from the Prophet sallallahu Sallam that if you really a messenger, a true
messenger of God, and we are denying you then we should be punished while if we should be punished.
Bring the punishment right now. Right. So Sonya Hudson um said to them, Why are you asking for
punishment? Just think about what is it that you're asking for? Use your mind, use your reason.
Allah can punish you, he can also reward you. Allah can punish you and he can also fill your life
with blessings. What is it that you ask Allah for? What is it that you take from him? What is it
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:57
			that you receive from him? And this is something that we all need to think about. That Allah
subhanaw taala where he has made Ghana he has also made hellfire, right, where there is a gem there
is sad, there is reward, there is also punishment. It is totally up to us. What is it that we want
from Allah? What is it that we ask Allah for? And sometimes when a person is blinded by the love of
this world, or he is blinded by whatever beliefs that he has, he doesn't think about what he's
asking Allah subhanaw taala for so over here, these people because of their blind denial, their
blind opposition to their messenger, they began asking for punishment. Society hustler makes them
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:10
			think that Why are you asking for so here you should be asking for hustler. Believe seek forgiveness
from your Lord. And when you will seek forgiveness, then you will enjoy good results.
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:49
			So take a better option. In other words, this is what he suggested take a better option. You have
nothing to lose. If you believe you seek forgiveness from Allah you will only receive good from
Allah. In surah Arafa 77. Something similar is mentioned. Were the people of Saleh A listen and they
said y'all salehoo Deena be my Atari Duna in continental Mursaleen. The people said, oh Salia bring
the punishment if you really have the messengers. Basically, they were saying that if you really a
messenger bring the punishment, once we see the punishment, then we will know that what you
threatened us with was true, which means that you are true, then we can believe in you but what good
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:51
			is that belief after the punishment?
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:59
			You understand? What's the benefit? Instead of the marriage? I have one and two also we learn about
the people of Makkah, sir
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:21
			nessa Ilan big urban worker, little cafe Rena Leigh sallahu dafair selesa, Elissa ill meaning the
one who came and demanded something from the Prophets Allah is Allah. What is it that he asked for?
Be? Are there been punishment? What kind of punishment is it worker? Definitely it is going to
happen there is no denying hellfire.
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:26
			There is no denying Hellfire even if a person denies it eventually it's their
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:53
			little caffeine Elisa who dafair For those who disbelieve there is no preventer of the punishment.
In truth Radha six something similar is mentioned where's the RG Luna? Kabhi? sejati Carbonell hacer
una they impatiently urge you to bring about evil before good. Wicked Khaled Min cobbly him will
Matthew lat. While there has already occurred before them similar punishments,
		
00:15:54 --> 00:16:08
			similar punishments, you know, sometimes in anger and frustration, people begin asking for terrible
things to happen to them. You know, like, for example, people curse themselves. They say, if I'm
really wrong, then made the curse of God beyond me.
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:57
			You know, or may my house be ruined or or me my family be ruined? Or may each and every person in
this room be struck with some kind of disease? What's the point of saying that like seriously, what
is the point this is ignorance This is Jehovah. We should always always ask Allah for his phuddle
Always no matter what situation we are in, you know, even if a person has done the most serious of
since more serious, and he finds himself in a very low state in a very low position. Even in that
situation, if a person asks Allah for his fuddle if a person asks Allah for His mercy, His
forgiveness, He will find it because Allah subhanaw taala says in Hadith Bootsy we learned that I am
		
00:16:57 --> 00:17:05
			as my servant thinks I am. And remember that in our deen, we are told to combine fear with hope,
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:57
			fear with hope, there is no concept of despair, no concept of despair. Remember, because despairing,
you know of Allah's mercy, His forgiveness claim that comes from Allah despairing of that basically
means that you're closing all doors for yourself, right? That a person is basically closing all
options. And the fact is that Allah subhanaw taala is the Musa people ASVAB he is the provider of
all means that even if a person finds himself in the most deepest place, in the most darkest place,
still Allah can create away, can he not? We learned about the story of Musa Listen, I've inserted
the sha Allah, where was the way out? Was it behind him? No further on was there was it in front of
		
00:17:57 --> 00:18:45
			him, No, the water was there. But hope in Allah that Allah will provide a way. So even if a person
has committed sins, a person finds himself very evil, very filthy, a very bad record, whatever it is
very bad history. You know, a person is consumed by so many sins and so many wrong things. Still,
there is a way out, always. Always there's a way out because as long as we're living, we have a way
out. So over here, somebody hurt us and I was giving hope to them. That why are you asking for
punishment? You should be asking for forgiveness when you will ask for forgiveness than just be
amazed at the results. Salam Alikum Allah subhanaw taala he says
		
00:18:46 --> 00:19:30
			oh my Yeah, Mel Sue and I weirdly enough so hold some myself here ally did Allah for Allah Hema is
that a person who does wrong or he commits a sin then through master fit Allah then when he seeks
forgiveness from Allah, He will find Allah, forgiving and merciful, right? So this is something very
important that we need to remember. Because what happens is that when we commit a sin, when we make
a mistake, we start thinking very bad about ourselves. We have a very, you know, low level of you
can say self esteem or an image of oneself. I'm so bad. I'm a failure. There's no way I can ever
have assure in my salah. And you know what, maybe I'm one of those people who can just not memorize
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:59
			the Quran. Maybe you know, being religious is not for me, right? We start telling ourselves that
maybe I'm just that person who's never gonna have good o'clock. Maybe I'm that person who's just
really bad tempered maybe I'm just bad. You know, maybe Allah has decreed for me that I am of the
people of hellfire. Well, you are Yeah, the biller you know sometimes shaitaan puts these thoughts
in our minds, but we should always have a high you know, goal for ourselves.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:25
			and always think that Allah will take me there. I cannot get there myself. Allah will take me there.
And sometimes what happens is that when you're talking to other people, you're telling them about
good things. They start saying, Well, I'm not a good person. There's no, you know, hope for me. No,
there is hope for everybody. Because if there wasn't the Prophet sallallahu Sallam would not do Dawa
to people like Abuja and Abu Lahab. He wouldn't, but he did, didn't he?
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:58
			So, over here, he's giving hope to his people that limit the star Jiun embassy at Cardinal Hasina.
Lola, the stuff in Allah and look at this suggestive with it, why don't you take this option? Why
don't you try it? Why don't you seek forgiveness from Allah? Allah, Allah come to Hmong, you will be
shown mercy, you will be amazed at the results. Kalu they said, If a urinal beaker will be my mark,
they said if you're gonna we consider a bad omen
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:54
			bicker with you? Meaning we consider you to be a bad omen. What does it mean by that? If a Jana is
from a euro? All right, if a Euro he took the euro, right? If the Euro now we take up the euro? What
is the euro? The euro is basically to consider something as a bad omen. What does it mean by that?
It's from the workplace. What does play to mean? Bird? What does a bird do? What something special
about birds? They fly? Right? We wish we could fly but we don't have wings. Right? Even if we try
to, you know, take something and try to fly. It would be difficult. Anyway, birds can fly. Right? So
the Arabs and not just the Arabs? Actually, there's something that's common in many nations, many
		
00:21:54 --> 00:22:08
			societies that the Arabs when they would be confused about something, should they continue with it?
Or should they stop? Basically, what they have to do is to Cara, right, they will take a bird, and
they would release it.
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:20
			Okay. And when they would release the bird if it flew to the right. Yeah, let's continue. And if it
flew to the left, no, no, stop.
		
00:22:21 --> 00:23:00
			And sometimes they would even release the bird themselves. If they would just see a bird flying in
the sky somewhere. They would consider the flight of the bird. All right, because if it wasn't a
particular direction, they would consider that flight to be a sign of good luck or bad luck. You
understand? And this is something that is very common that where an object and event a time you
know, anything is taken as a sign of bad luck or good luck.
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:07
			All right. Like for example, something bad happens, a total disaster.
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:11
			And people start to wonder why did this happen?
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:20
			So they say oh, the reason why my party ruined is because such and such person was here.
		
00:23:21 --> 00:23:26
			And this person no matter where they go, you know, they take problems with them.
		
00:23:29 --> 00:24:00
			Okay, I mean, evil i There is a reality to it. Like, for example, somebody's getting married. And
recently somebody's gotten divorced or their for the third time their engagement broke, or, you
know, they got widowed or something like that. Don't call them. Don't tell them. Because if they
come, they will bring bad luck with them. Yes, I'm telling you this is I'm not making it up. Even if
people don't say it with their mouths, they're thinking about it in their heads.
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:18
			They make you feel it. Somebody is expecting. Don't tell somebody who's had a miscarriage. Don't
tell them at all. Don't be around them. Because they're being with you there knowing your condition
is going to affect your fate somehow Allah who are limbo, go ahead.
		
00:24:19 --> 00:24:59
			Leave something that she believes, like for a long time. And she asked me if you find there's I
think like it is a small ominous things declaration. And she was looking at while we were working at
a store, and I asked her, What do you want like for some reason I asked her what she said, Oh, my
bed my daughter in law had a baby and back home we used to hand that on beside the bed of the baby.
So whoever comes they don't put some bad eyes. So I see the thing is is achieved raised just yet she
has this culture that she cannot let go. This again is related to evil i right
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:47
			We're talking about the euro. The euro is different from iron. Okay? Alright, evil eye is that
someone's jealousy? All right, or they're constantly looking at you, their jealousy is going to
cause you harm. And that is possible with Allah's even. All right. Viola is when you think that
because a black cat passed in front of me, this is the reason why, because of the walking of the
Black Cat in front of me, I am going to get hurt. You understand? superstition, this is the era the
era is superstition. And there are so many different colors and shades of this that existed and
still exist today. still exists today.
		
00:25:49 --> 00:25:50
			Number 13.
		
00:25:51 --> 00:26:07
			Right? I mean, it's amazing when you go to like, a building in downtown, like a fancy building
downtown, where each apartment is like millions of dollars. And you are amazed that seriously,
people who don't believe in God believe in superstition.
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:43
			Seriously, it's amazing. But anyway, they said it for you will not becau we consider you to be a
sign of bad luck for us. Because was there a division in this community? Now, there was a division,
right? So they said, you know, all these problems they have started because of you. They have
started because of you will be my marker. And with those who are with you, meaning all of you.
Solid, are you and those people who believe in you, you are a sign of bad luck for us. Because of
you. We have so many problems.
		
00:26:45 --> 00:27:30
			You see, it happens? You know, for example, if there's a family, all right, one person accepts Islam
or one person they become religious. Okay. Now what happens, news spreads. And people who were
previously very friendly with this family are no longer friendly. For instance, right? People who
used to come over, have them over now, it's no longer like that. Somebody in the family had a job.
But when they found out that, oh, the sister is like this, and this and this, they're losing their
job or things like that. You understand what I mean? It happens. But these things were meant to
happen anyway. You can't blame somebody's hijab. You know, somebody puts on the niqab. Right? What
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:32
			are they told, You're never gonna get married?
		
00:27:34 --> 00:28:21
			Right. Or at least if no marriage proposal works out, they are told it's because of your niqab while
there's so many other people who don't wear the niqab, but what happens? They've got the good
beautiful looks, Mashallah. They've got the good education. They've got the good family background,
they've got a good job, everything the house is paid off. No law, nothing at all. Are they married?
No, they're not married? Are they actively looking for a spouse? Yes, they are than what is
preventing the marriage. Allah's isn't is not there. You understand? But we are so quick to point
fingers at the dean at the dean. It's because of this hijab, it's because of this Quran. It's
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:56
			because of this niqab. It's because of the Sunnah it's because of your Jumeirah. It's because of
your Masjid. It's because of this and this and this related to the deen because of which we're
having problems. You know, this is a modern translation of what the people were saying to saleha
they said that because of you were suffering from so many problems. Something similar happened to
the Arabs also, that when the Prophet SAW Allah Islam started doing Dawa, and his own family turned
against him. The rest of the Arabs, you know, they spoke about the coloration what kind of people
are you, you have turned your own people outside of the Holy Land Makkah.
		
00:28:57 --> 00:29:32
			Right. So their relationships with the other Arab tribes were affected because of the Muslims. So
they blamed Muslims, they blamed Islam. And today also, Muslims are blamed Islam is blamed for many
things. Where's the fact is that the ultimate giver of good and bad is who? Allah subhanaw taala
This is why Salah Hassan very confidently responded parlato Eurocom. He said, your claw, meaning
your bad omen is in the law. It is with Allah. What does it mean by this?
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:49
			What does it mean by this? Your bad luck is with Allah, meaning whatever evil you're suffering, it
is happening by Allah's permission, because nothing bad happens and nothing good happens except with
the permission of Allah azza wa jal.
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:59
			This was something that happened due to September 11. This was so many years ago Subhanallah I
completely forget about it. But to some people, it's really
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:41
			still in touch with them, but to show them as humanity that we I told them that yes, it was wrong
some innocent people get killed. But they I believe was because Muslim did it. And what I was trying
to make them understand is that because of Allah's Will the God's Will this was supposed to happen,
no matter what it is, it was supposed to happen at that time. We don't know why it happened. But it
was decreed to happen that day. And that's one thing we have to believe whether it was intentionally
or unintentionally so Subhanallah this is part of the degree that we they have to believe the same
way that they blaming Sally then it was just me that it happened. Just this morning, I was reading
		
00:30:41 --> 00:30:51
			chef Yasuko these post on Facebook about September 11. And he mentioned that you know, so many
innocent people were killed, but in response, what happened?
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:54
			People are suffering till today.
		
00:30:55 --> 00:31:44
			Till today, right? So you can't just look at one side of the story. You have to look at the whole
picture. So Saleh Alyssa was telling them that this happened by Allah's Will pilota aquamarine dilla
don't blame us bail and uncommon to have afternoon Bell rather and Tom, you are common to afternoon
people who are in fitna eating, it's your own fault. You see fitna is also used for sin. So it's
your guilty. It's your own fault. You're suffering from these problems, not because we are bad luck
for you. But because of what you're doing yourselves. Look at your own actions, who has started this
hostility? You have started this hostility? If you would let us live in peace, there would be no
		
00:31:44 --> 00:32:25
			problem. Like in Makkah, Was there really a need for Muslims to leave their city and go, Why would
they go Who would want to leave Mecca and go to Abyssinia across the sea on the other side? Who
would want to go to a foreign land and live there? Who would want to go to yesterday, you know how
much below the low or no use to miss MCCA how much he used to miss MCATs reported in Makati. How he
got so severely ill I shelled alone and I went to see him. And he was saying that if I could only
drink the water of such and such spring of maca and such and such spring. I mean, this is the same
Bilal who was being persecuted in Makkah. Right? So Bell uncomment afternoon, stop blaming us. It's
		
00:32:25 --> 00:32:53
			your own fault. Look at your own actions. Salaam Alaikum. Sister was shared with me that how she was
crossing the border. And her brother was very upset because her son had a beard. And he kept saying
that, you know, you're gonna cause problems for all of us. Why did you have this beard? And he kept
on saying that she said when we reached the border, the officials there told my entire family, the
Hamid family you can go and they stopped my brother's family.
		
00:32:56 --> 00:33:42
			And she said it was a shock for my brother because throughout the time, he'd been blaming my son for
growing this beard. So Subhanallah Allah's help comes, you know, when you least expect it and you
never know who is going to be blamed for what Yeah, so the main lesson we learn over here is that
when we are in difficulty, let's not blame a person or the dean, what is it that we need to look at
ourselves? This is why Sandy Hardison says well uncommon to have the unknown. You are in fitna look
at your own selves, and to the unknown, also means you are being tested. Right? Meaning problems are
a part of life. If it wasn't going to be this problem, it would be some other problem, but uncommon
		
00:33:42 --> 00:34:20
			afternoon. The fact is that when people do not believe in their messenger, then yes, Allah subhanaw
taala takes away some of the blessings away from them. Why? To make them loan your own so that they
humble themselves. before Allah they feel their neediness before Allah and they turned to him. We
learn about fit our own and sort of our off Iowan 30 Welaka a hardener Allah fit I want to be
Sinitta one up slim in a Thammarat we certainly sees the people of Iran with years of famine and
deficiency and fruit. Why? So that he would realize and turn back
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:59
			in Surah missa 78 We learn how the people of Makkah they accused the Prophet sallallahu Sallam also
what into slavery from hasn't written yet who had the human are in the law we're into sleep whom say
yeah, turn your cool who had him in or Indic This is about the people of Medina the hypocrites. They
say that if something good happens, they say Oh, this is from Allah. If something bad happens, they
say this is because of you or prophets, Allah Allah said I'm all Muslims. Since you have come to
Medina, our lives have been disturbed all kilometer in dilla say all of it is from WHO? It is from
who Allah. The fact is
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:02
			that this life is a test.
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:22
			And this is something we need to remember. We want this world to be like Janna for us. Whereas it's
not Janna, it's never going to be Jana, it's never going to be problem free. It's always going to be
full of problems and tests and trials, especially when we do something wrong and a disaster happens.
That is meant to wake us up.
		
00:35:23 --> 00:35:52
			I feel though it's other headaches. And I must add that it's an incredibly realistic way of
thinking. A lot of the times people when they look at Islam and Muslims, they say, Oh, you're just,
you know, delusions, pic of angels and this and that, but saw their headaches. And I'm just telling
you, you know, like, straightforward that this is, whatever it is, is the will of Allah subhana that
you just deal with what you can. And by this, we're not bound by superstitions, there are people who
don't believe in God, but they're constantly afraid, oh, no, I stepped on a crack or this happened
or that happened. So I mean, they may not believe in God, but they have their own delusions that are
		
00:35:52 --> 00:36:33
			keeping them completely wrapped up and scared of everything. But this is making us think
realistically, and you know, to deal with the situation that is in front of us, yes. In total, Ambia
35. Allah says, when a blue condition, we will highly fit method. We test you with evil and with
good as a fitna as a trial. And this is a constant part of life. Now, remember that the people who
oppose Saleh or listen, I'm mainly who were the mullah? The leaders, as we will see later on also,
it was the family chiefs, it was the you can say tribal chiefs who, who planned against him who
plotted against him. And many times it is the people at the top who oppose change.
		
00:36:34 --> 00:37:19
			They are the most hostile towards change. Why? Because the status quo? What is it because of the
person situation, they're the ones who are benefiting the most, right? And if the situation changes,
then they are the ones who will suffer the most. Right? If you look at, for example, a particular
business, it's a very corrupt business, very under the table deals, and so on and so forth. And then
there are people who say, we need to change this, but their ideas are not welcomed. Why? Because if
the whole system is changed, then what will happen people at the top, they're not going to make the
same kind of money anymore, isn't it? Their crimes will be exposed, they might end up buying the
		
00:37:19 --> 00:37:33
			virus. So who do you think is going to oppose the change most who it's the people at the top? Right?
But the fact is that the truth cannot remain buried forever,
		
00:37:34 --> 00:38:19
			isn't it, ultimately it comes out ultimately, it is exposed. So anytime we see that change is
suggested, people bringing those ideas, they're the ones who are ostracized, they're the ones who
are portrayed as criminals. But the truth does not remain hidden. And this ultimately leads to
division. In a community. We just take the example of food, right? We see how food is no longer
considered or treated as food. It's more like food products. Right? I mean, this is what we are
encouraged to eat. This is what we are encouraged to purchase. Food is marketed as if it were a
product and look at what it's doing to our health. Overall, all over the world, not just in one
		
00:38:19 --> 00:38:21
			country, we see this all over the world.
		
00:38:22 --> 00:39:08
			And then there are people who are raising awareness of this. But how they are demonized sometimes,
you know, sometimes you wonder why is organic food so expensive? No, seriously? What's the big deal?
It's the one that is using the least amount of chemicals and all of that treatments. But why is it
so expensive? What's the big deal over here? What's the reason because they have to pay so much
fees. And it's so expensive to run a normal to operate a normal farm. It is it's made so difficult
for them. You know, whatever is good is made so difficult. Whatever is simple, whatever is natural
is made so difficult. I remember I was watching this documentary, I think it was hungry for change
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:51
			or something like that. I don't remember which one. There's quite a few. I don't know if this clip
was from that documentary or not. But in one of the documentaries, they were showing what how some
people were buying raw milk from a farmer. All right, and right there, somebody showed up, and each
and every person was made to dump that milk. They weren't allowed to take it. Any that pure, you
know, milk was being thrown away, literally. And people were forced to do that. And the poor man who
had been raising his cattle and bringing this milk, I mean, the whole business collapsed. Right?
Now, what's the whole deal behind it? Because if people realize the health benefits and the positive
		
00:39:52 --> 00:39:59
			things that are associated with good health, who's going to suffer? It's these big, big companies
that are going to suffer. Right who's going to eat McDonald's? That
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:27
			Who's gonna eat all these foods? Then? You understand? You know, it's amazing how you find people
dumbing down, you know, good clean eating? And who are these people who are talking against it?
They're supposed to be educated people they're supposed to be in, you know, medicine or in the food
industry or something like that. They're the ones who are putting down all of these things the most.
		
00:40:28 --> 00:41:00
			Recently, somebody mentioned to me that, you know, you talk about all this organic food, do you have
any idea how it is grown? I'm like, it's grown naturally. That's all I know. While you know what
they said, the fertilizer is actually feces. I'm like, really? Is that what you're going to tell me
to convince me not to eat proper food? What's the next thing that you're going to bring up? Right? I
mean, if I remember being a child going to farms, I remember cow dung everywhere.
		
00:41:02 --> 00:41:04
			Because that is fertilizer.
		
00:41:05 --> 00:41:15
			Fertilizer is not what's made in a factory with all those chemicals. That's not fertilizer, that's
chemicals, it's not food for us.
		
00:41:16 --> 00:42:01
			Good. I've been looking into this way of learning called unschooling, and it's like, when the
children stay at home, and the parents ease the process for them by providing resources for the
children, and kind of just leave them to their own, like, whatever, like they just learned by
themselves. And that works so well for the children that they can, like, I've heard so many stories
of children, like starting out on schooling, kindergarten, and like graduating in grade 12, like by
themselves, and there was like just unschooling all the way in getting into university and the
programs they want. And, like the government's generally encouraging people to send their kids into
		
00:42:01 --> 00:42:40
			the public education system and all that. So in the UK, they have like all these officials and
stuff, checking up on these parents that are unschooling their children, just so that the children
can be forced to go into an environment where their political ideology is where their, like thoughts
and what they learn are influenced or controlled by the government. And so it's kind of like the
same idea. I mean, there is a reason behind that altar, because there are people who will keep their
children home and not teach them anything. Right. So of course, those in charge have to kind of make
sure that no child has been deprived of education. So they have to take these measures. Likewise,
		
00:42:40 --> 00:43:21
			when it comes to food, there could be people who are selling food in the name of, you know, pure and
raw, but in reality, it's not like that, you know, you hear all these stories in Pakistan, where oil
is being sold by a random person open oil, and that oil is not actually food, it's something else,
and it's killing people. Right? So this is why these systems have been made, they have been put in
place. But all of these systems are not necessarily 100%. Good. And people when they do try to
create awareness in any industry concerning any industry, they're the ones who are portrayed as bad
guys. The point of all this discussion is not to make you start thinking that everything is a
		
00:43:21 --> 00:43:25
			conspiracy, okay? But use your mind.
		
00:43:26 --> 00:43:53
			Always use your mind. Don't just accept things because they're considered the norm or because people
at the top are saying something or they're opposing something or they are promoting something. Use
your own mind also, because over here we see that the people of Solihull, SLM those who opposed him
were mainly who the Chiefs the leaders, people in authority, people have power, and they were
controlling the masses.
