I'm very happy

00:00:21 --> 00:00:24

to come again during this month of Ramadan

00:00:25 --> 00:00:26

2016.

00:00:26 --> 00:00:28

And during this

00:00:29 --> 00:00:29

month

00:00:30 --> 00:00:31

and every day of the months

00:00:31 --> 00:00:32

of,

00:00:33 --> 00:00:33

Ramadan, Insha'Allah,

00:00:34 --> 00:00:35

our topic will be

00:00:37 --> 00:00:37

resistances.

00:00:37 --> 00:00:40

Resistances in the way we are dealing as

00:00:40 --> 00:00:42

we are fasting with our own self,

00:00:42 --> 00:00:44

trying to get a better

00:00:44 --> 00:00:46

understanding of who we are and what do

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

we want to achieve, and we are resisting

00:00:49 --> 00:00:52

our human nature, our nature even, to,

00:00:52 --> 00:00:55

become better spiritual being.

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

So we will come back to the essential

00:00:58 --> 00:01:02

understanding of resistance, even the notion of jihad

00:01:02 --> 00:01:03

to come to,

00:01:04 --> 00:01:07

understand the intimate dimension when it comes to

00:01:07 --> 00:01:09

our emotions, when it comes to our self,

00:01:09 --> 00:01:10

when it comes to our mind, when it

00:01:10 --> 00:01:12

comes to our life, but also when it

00:01:12 --> 00:01:14

comes to our,

00:01:14 --> 00:01:15

societies

00:01:15 --> 00:01:16

and our

00:01:17 --> 00:01:17

communities,

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21

human communities as well as Muslim communities. How

00:01:21 --> 00:01:23

do we have to deal with,

00:01:23 --> 00:01:25

the reality around us and in which we

00:01:25 --> 00:01:28

we have to resist in order to reform

00:01:28 --> 00:01:29

ourself,

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

the world, and our societies.

00:01:32 --> 00:01:34

This will be the topic of this year.

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36

Every day, we'll try to get a better

00:01:36 --> 00:01:38

understanding, a deeper understanding,

00:01:38 --> 00:01:42

and, hopefully, this will help to beautify

00:01:43 --> 00:01:44

our fasting, to beautify

00:01:45 --> 00:01:48

our days, and to try as Muslims, men

00:01:48 --> 00:01:51

and women, to be better human being at

00:01:51 --> 00:01:52

the end of the month,

00:01:53 --> 00:01:56

much more, of course, that than we had

00:01:56 --> 00:01:58

than we were at the beginning of the

00:01:58 --> 00:01:58

months.

00:01:59 --> 00:02:01

And don't forget don't forget

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

every day of this month, but not only,

00:02:03 --> 00:02:05

just even also after

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08

our months to tell the people you love,

00:02:08 --> 00:02:10

that you love them, because this life is

00:02:10 --> 00:02:11

fragile,

00:02:11 --> 00:02:12

very fragile.
