But I can't imagine my thought do you work in a hurry her low using
on her electronic format. So Hamdulillah I think all of us now
have began entered into the blessings month of Ramadan. May
Allah subhanaw taala make it a source of
fulfillment and raising of degrees and explanation of sins, and
emancipation from the hellfire and takom closeness and modify and
modify knowledge and raising in our knowledge of Allah subhanaw
taala.
So, we're reading as you know, from a federal Rabbani with many,
a set of 62 discourses, the sublime revelation, and the divine
merciful outpourings. Obviously, with Michelle
Moore, he dean of the clergy, Lani law, the law, Idaho, and these
were sort of discourses recorded by his students, over a period of
two years in Medina to set up the city of peace, otherwise known as
data that in the years 545 and 546, of the Hijra. And as we've
said before, he was doing this over a couple of decades, not just
two years, but what has reached us and what was the one, what was
documented by his students are these particular 62 that we see
here. And it was said that 10s of 1000s of people would attend these
metallicities discourses and there will be 400 scribes who would fill
their inkwells with ink, to write down everything that he said. And
as you can see,
the chef his style, his discourse is rather straightforward.
rather simple he does you make use of some metaphor and things like
that. He doesn't really quote poetry that we can see other
authors have done that. But you get the sense the feeling that
there was what they say, simply ledger, there was a set of there's
a sincerity, in the manner that he was speaking and so something that
leaves the heart from one heart then finds its way to another
heart as acknowledged.
I heard it I thought in a secondary says in one of the
hiccup, my guess was the winner of yesterday that caught that which
leaves the heart to find its way to other hearts, and that which
merely said on the tongue later, Joseph as then message me and he
said it shouted at them and that which is merely said on the tongue
just words,
then they do not go past the ears. No, it's not. It's not
penetrative. Doesn't. Listen, the ha ha. Right, that doesn't find
its way. So we ask the last one, I think if all of us simply said
most of the ledger, that we have pure intentions and pure hearts
and then in sha Allah our tongue has done what we say what we speak
will reflect in
the Senate or the sincerity that we strive to have in our hearts.
So we reached the 34th
Discord discourse so we ran up from to last time and I think we
might be the same this time because some of these are kind of
short coming up, but some are longer. So
let's just go and see.
So here it doesn't say exactly
when this was said or what date he just said, Well, hello theological
radicalism. So there was some discussion and then he says, and
comb Shahan will desu where a journal writing and
the hub winner will have one then he would have involved the
learning as a generality we were Hebrew winner who didn't follow
even Misaki and move on. You're calling him Kelowna tuna Island
Medina and algae Xenon for hormone mono clam Luca dunya for Knowmia
without whether you're he won't call new she Runa Bill module were
totally ruined and love good yeah who don't have any other happy as
well John? laminating Hulk IQ disable your well yeah him then
hopefully with disable Full Movie him level you're gonna lie as
Roger learned how a broad enough see the little handy bassinet.
So look at that first part.
He said the people of the Lord hear and poem and this is just I
don't know if we talked about this before but the word alone when we
see this word really literally means the group
For the folk or the,
the people
what he's talking about here is very specifically an old Yanni
Adela. And we say Allah, the Federal aquifer, we say the people
of Allah in a optimistic sense, at the end of the day,
we don't know what's in people's hearts that Mizuki Allah I had,
right? So to say that this person is
from the people of Ghana, or this person, and in the day or this
person is that if we do say something like this, and we have
to have proper of an advocate, we mean it in a sense, the federal
and we're optimistic or as a DUA, or as a
supplication that you know, or we qualify it either by qualifying
with a qualifying phrase or in our intention. So NASA who has a right
we say, see that with others you then will be alarmed when they
love you please with him. So even when we say oh the Allahu Allah
Rahim Allah Allah. So that sounds like I'm designating that Allah
already had mercy upon him or her, Allah is already pleased with him.
But in actuality, it's a supplication. And so to our so
when I say who then this person, Allah has had mercy on him. That's
how it sounds in Arabic, literally, but it has the meaning
of May Allah have mercy on him. And this is a rhetorical device
that you find in Arabic where it says they call it
wild.
In Shafi mode on hover, so in chat means you're asking for something
or you're questioning something you're not telling, stating
something. It's not a statement. So I'm not making a statement when
I say shall apology then another line, I am making a supplication
or an essay full name, Rahim Allah, or
word that I have, I love my father, may Allah have peace of
mind. So it's not a statement, but it's a supplication. So then the
element would radiate. What is actually the pupae someone's
status with Allah subhanaw taala nobody knows except Allah spiraled
out, not even saw having McCall not even the person themselves can
say with a certainty
I am this you know I have this particular place with God or this
particularly McCollum with the last guy that they said that
color, right? Not with in a sort of sense of certainty. That's why
many of the theologians they said it's okay to say something like an
eye movement in sha Allah, right? I am a believer in sha Allah. In
other words, my sytem the way I'm going to end up the way I'm going
to pass away in sha Allah, I hope Allah smart Allah gives me
a death and I am in a state of Islam, I die as a muslim, not a
Christian, anything that I say the shahada before I pass away, this
is our hope. And this is our supplication. So when he says and
poem, he means specifically the ones who delved into the sciences
of Teskey, the the sciences, or the disciplines, the spiritual
disciplines of spiritual purification. So they'll say like
alcohol and kalakuta, will call on the books of the, of the home. So
usually, it's referring to in a more specific sense, people who
studied the soul or wrote about it or practice date or taught it or
somehow were involved in it.
Or it doesn't necessarily mean them as a group of scholars
specifically, but it could also mean people who look towards the
issues of the heart and understood that the outward acts were a means
by which to purify the inward so when he says a poem shuffle the
whole battle, right the the people or the people of God of the Lord.
They were busy with on the busy of spending freely, and making life
easier for their fellow creatures, as professional robbers and
givers. So this is a metaphor that the chef is using.
Now have one and a half is the one who's you know, takes robbing
things from people as a profession, and givers, right,
when what happened and what happens when Putin really gives.
They plunder the grace and mercy of Allah subhanaw taala and give
it to the poor and the needy who are in straighten circumstances.
They settle the debts of debtors who are unable to pay what they
owe. They are the kings but not the kings of this world because
the latter Rob, and do not give
the Lord's people make the most of what is available and wait for
what is lacking. They take from the hand of the Lord of truth may
not help us origin, not from the hands of creatures. What they
acquire with their physical bodies is for other creatures and what
they acquire with their hearts is their own. They spend for the sake
of Allah subhanaw taala not to satisfy desires of interest, and
not to gain praise and acclaim. So what does it mean to take from the
hand of God to take from Allah subhanaw taala
Is that like a literal thing? No, it's not a literal thing,
obviously, because Allah subhanaw taala we say hello, I'm gonna say
cool image because he is, he transcends, and he does not
resemble his, his creation in any way whatsoever. So, it means that
you see the one giving you is a last final data. So, you may still
get a salary from your job and you may still collect rent from the
properties that you
sell or properties that you rent out. You may still
collect a pension. But the idea is to see that the one who is
actually giving you is a loss. So that's what they mean by Jani, you
see the one giving the invitee or loss final data. So one of the
names of Allah subhanaw taala or one Mati, the one who gives and so
no other beings no other creatures can participate with Allah
subhanaw taala in any of its attributes, that is a standard
fundamental basic issue of of creed of our leader. So if we say
hola, hola, hola and Mati that means la mattina layerable. There
is no one else who actually gives, except for Allah subhanaw taala.
So that means I see anything that comes my way that Allah Subhana
Allah is the One giving me right and also, he is the one who takes
away. So just like one more to also club it, he is one who takes
or grabs from, from the hug. So in actuality, the giving and the
receiving, I see it from a loss penalty. And so if a loss one is
the true Mati, he is the one giving, then he is giving you not
as you write them out, because you're entitled to it, not because
you deserve it, and even not because you asked for it, but out
of his fault, right out of his favor upon you, that was not
precipitated or preceded by anything that you did in order to
receive it. So we never look at our deeds that was like, oh, Allah
gave this this to me, because I did all this for him.
You do it for him, but actually you doing it for yourself. Right?
Because that's what I lost, my dad asked me to do. That's what he
asked you to fulfill, to, to practice your deen. And
ultimately, that is going to be the best thing for you. And Allah
subhanaw taala also gave you responsibilities. If he made you a
person of
receiving things and ease in your life. And there are others around
you who don't have such ease in your life in their lives. Like he
mentioned here straightened circumstances. And we keep we see
the chef he said this many, many times before, you know, and to
where see and feel far more settled for a lot means that you
will obey Him and it makes their hearts light and enter, bring
happiness to them, help them. So we don't see in our Islamic ethos.
We don't see people as
people who, whatever circumstances they find themselves in something
that they brought upon themselves that they're, they are recipients
because they were negligent in something. So if someone is in a
difficult circumstance, we don't look at them, and say, well, if
they worked harder if they weren't as lazy, or if they studied
harder, or if they did this, then they wouldn't find themselves in
the circumstance that they find themselves in. Right? Let the they
say, don't look at people the thought I will is zero. There are
certain things that are prohibited to look at both physical and that
we know about. So another either our art. So looking at things that
are the nakedness of people that you're not allowed to look at.
Those are things we should refrain from looking at by our physical
eyes. Because by refraining from looking at things by physical
eyes, we protect our hearts so that way, once an image gets into
your head about something that you look you looked at that you
shouldn't have looked at, it's hard to get out of the one the
image and it will leave some sort of semi permanent mark on you. And
he this we know about digital we've experienced it will leave us
about semi permanent, I say semi permanent, because in sha Allah
won't be forever. But some of the the ODM they used to say, you
know, I looked at such a thing why didn't was supposed to do this
thing. And then I couldn't find my heart for like six months, you
know, it set me back in terms of my relationship with the last
panel data and it did some damage to the relationship. So just like
you can do damage to a human relationship, right? If you have a
friend or a spouse and you get in a spat
and you know, they say some things that you regret, and then you walk
away from each other and kind of Yeah, and you might sort of try to
work around it, but sometimes that damage can last a while even
though
When you try to, you know, mend fences and so forth.
Similarly with Allah subhanaw taala, you can damage your
relationship with Allah subhanaw taala. And sometimes it could be
as subtle as we're moving something that you took for
granted for a long time, like
the ease of waking up for salted treasure, for example waking up
fairly easily to pray, or when you hear the event, or we know that
prayer time comes in, you know, you feel like this now that you
feel this inspiration to go and pray right away. And then
that document will follow that. Maybe you slipped here and there,
you did some things, you made a conscious decision to do things
that you weren't supposed to do. And then you find it's difficult
to, or more difficult, not as easy, let's say, as to get up for
praying for Azure prayer. Or when you hear that, then you don't get
out right away, you kind of you, you're a little bit hesitant and
you're looking at Oh, wait, I'm watching my TV program, or let me
just enter the email and then just do this. Whereas previously, you
felt like no, I have to drop everything. And this is the most
important thing. And that's that's an AMA, right? So that's something
that you did, but it's something Allah gave you. And sometimes he
shows you and takes these things away. While you're called the
radicalism, right, sometimes he will put you in a position where
you commit a sin. But what you do next is the important part. So if
you slipped in, you made a mistake. You can say, okay, you
know, it's all lost, it's gone. You can have a loss of hope.
Right? And if not, like secondary says, if you lose hope and allow
after that, then that's a sign of an antimatter. And that's a sign
you're dependent upon your deeds, when you should be dependent upon
Allah's mercy. So look to Allah's mercy, look to Allah's
forgiveness, and then take this with him as a sign, perhaps now
you will stop taking those things for granted. And realize what a
blessing that they were to begin with, and that they were not a
result of anything that you specifically did to deserve them.
But Allah smart Allah, you have to also be operating when you share a
lot of our specifies his mama, and Gibbs and will raise you and will
expect your sins out of his immense and infinite mercy not
have anything that you did. So
como ella, they realize this. And so now HUBZone means they're
looking for any mercy from Allah subhanaw taala. And as soon as
they get it, they want to show gratitude, and chakra to Allah
subhanaw taala. So if it's something that is of material that
is the least precious in their eyes, so they're ready to part
with it. So if they see someone who's in debt, if they see someone
who's
having financial difficulties if they see someone who's in need,
USC right now, because he thinks he's better than them, we'll have
a lot of delay him. Don't ever think that I don't think you're
the one who's doing them a favor. This idea of thinking I did this
person a favor. This is called an men or an empty net. When men no
delay he was the only one who does favors for anybody really, is
Allah. Right? When we say someone did you a favor, it means they did
it and not because you, you know, deserved it, but they're doing
your favor, you know, just out of the goodness of their hearts. So
Allah subhanaw taala is infinite in an immense in that sense. So
even Quran tells us letter to yourself, it can be in many ways
other Do not ruin your support, right. And so the path here can
mean financial things that you actually give. And it could also
mean favors you've done for people, time that you've given
them attention that you've given them. You've taught them, you've
given them a ride to the hospital, whatever it is that you consider
to be a subtle thought. Something that you do out of the goodness of
your heart. Don't ruin it that too, but you don't corrupt it
actually it says don't invalidate it. Like it didn't happen at all,
then many will adapt. Right? And then men means I expect some show
of gratitude from the one that I showed my favor upon. That's only
a divine right? That's from Allah subhanaw taala and not from human
beings wanted another. So don't ruin yourself apart. Don't ruin it
by expecting them not even to return the favor, but maybe you
expect them to be grateful in their hearts. Maybe you don't want
anything for them to return. What you expect from them some
gratitude. They said that how do you know if you're in that
position or not? Because the nest is tricky. Your ego is going to
trick you it's gonna make you think no, no, you want a favor
from them for a lot, so forth. They said
if you have two people, one of them that you did a favor for and
one that you did not. And both of them
they kind of don't show you the esteem or the difference that you
would expect. Maybe because they're younger than you, or
whatever it might be. If you are more upset with the one who you
show the favor to, then that's an indication you have this men in
your heart, men, that means that you expect you expect you accept
or work accepting, expecting some gratitude to be shown your way
from your part. So truly, if you're doing for Lasala, don't
expect anything, right. And I'm going to select your file, which
is going to come I think later, either as other deliver playable
when I was starting to fall in the 35th. measure this, he talks about
a little bit.
The good word is raised to Allah subhanaw taala. Right. Y'all saw
it rises, the good word rises. In other words, it has an ascendancy
in doing the NFL, well, I'm a little saw that we have out and
the good deeds, Allah raises them. And one of the means or one of the
signs of the love raising them. And there is acceptance for the
deeds that you did is Luciana Muhammad, right? Is that you
forget about it. So it means Oh, I did this person is here and that
you don't even remember. So your interaction with them is not based
upon Oh, I did this guy favor. So I'm waiting for some deference,
and some,
you know, to give me some,
you know, sort of thank you or send me a bouquet of flowers or
whatever it is that people have an expectation of nothing like that,
because you're not even thinking about whether he's going to say
thank you or not. What are you thinking about? You think about
Allah subhanaw taala? So intelligible Belaire right. That's
what he says here in the beginning about oh,
seven, we've been through Asia to Rawhide, and you're just thinking
about helping and giving not what what you can get in return. So
the people of Allah subhanaw taala, this is their ethos. This
is how they live. And they see that everyone has their
circumstances that Allah gave them. And if you find yourself, as
we've said a couple of times before that people in need coming
to you, or not even coming to you, right, because some of them now,
yes, luminescent halfa some of them don't even ask and they don't
even show their hand. But you find that you're in a position to help.
Well, Allah placed you in that position. Like we said in the last
session, if Allah wants you for something you hate, okay? Right,
he prepares you, he puts you in a place. So this here is a sign of
an area. It's a sign that a lot of our data is preparing for
something special. The last month how to prepare the prophets, our
service something special.
I'm imposing the Euro of sadness, as is common referred to in the
Sierra when he lost both his uncle and then his wife, just days
later. These are the law on that. And then a few months later, after
that, the province I sent him was prepared for the greatest night of
any human beings life ever in this dunya. Ladies and so why marriage
so the light of the night of the night travel from Mecca to
Jerusalem at the office, and then the raising the prophesy send him
to the highest of the heavens, on December 20, they had to replace
even Gibreel. And he suddenly said, I can go no further. If I go
any further laughter rock. If I go any further, I would have been
burned to a crisp. But yet, here is the province vice LM who
ostensibly is a human being and made of clay. And Gibreel is made
of light and he couldn't go that far. But the nor the Prophet saw
the light of prophethood is even stronger light. And last month
have prepared him put him in a prepared state, so that he can do
that. So sometimes the lesson for us in this is we think we there's
no way I can get through this.
This trial and tribulation, this thing I can't see myself getting
through that but Allah will prepare you to get through it. If
you're meant to get through you will get through and also have an
opportunity position in sha Allah wa to be able to make it through.
So
may Allah give us that in sha Allah to make us the people of
preparedness and the standard? Right and metadata fatherly
started. So how much Allah subhanaw taala is going to give
you in terms of bounties and favors is how ready are you for
it? And how do you make yourself ready? Avail yourself of it,
fulfill the commands and avoid the prohibitions, right? Don't worry
about which McCollum and had and, you know where are you in the
celestial realm and all of this all of that is not really our
concern. We believe it exists, and it's there. And yes, if you make
Mujahideen when the teenager has Rufina then I had the inevitable
other people who give Mujahideen who strive and struggle, yes, this
will be the outcome, but the result the outcome can be in this
dunya or can be in the next life. Some of them they said that Allah
subhanaw taala may give people and this happened
As I think quite often, more than we realize, he gives them their
Wilaya. Right before they die, or right at the point of death, you
know, year over, right, he prepares them for that maybe they
didn't see that, or maybe they didn't have. And we'll see a lot
of it in this life. But as they get closer Allah subhanaw taala
wants them to be of that Muhammad in the next life. And so he gives
it to them maybe via sickness, maybe via trial, maybe via
tribulation,
a number of things, and Allah subhanaw taala then
gives them that thing that they were searching for that thing that
they were making Mujahid before this ultimate knowledge of Allah
Spinalonga either in the days or the moments before they actually
go meet God almost. And for others before that, and for others, they
may enjoy something of that what we call gender 10 Marika or gender
10 Mahadev. So there's gender to name, there's the agenda of
genetic argument agenda of paradise, the afterlife. And then
there's the agenda to marriage, the agenda of this life, which is
to know Allah subhanaw taala, right to have more shahada to
worship with SN tab of luck and the catalog, to worship him as if
you see him to have a riddle with copper, to be contented with the
Divine Decree. And then in that sense, you are you are contented
with Allah. So, yes, Inshallah, that will be the outcome, but you
don't know what, you don't know how. So don't necessarily live and
wait in anticipation for that. Because they say that's a veil. If
you keep seeing yourself, when is my opening going to come? When are
things going to like make sense to me, and I'm going to have this
opening, and I'll feel contented and okay with who I am.
That's a that's a veil that that type of thinking, as long as you
are contented with who you are, then you're stalled.
But if you're not contented, and you feel like there's more to
know, and there's more to do, then you're moving. Right? ministerial
mellophone. Moon, as the pilots are seldom said, the one who's two
days are the same, then he's been cheated, right? If you think
yesterday is the same as today, and then tomorrow is gonna be the
same. And you're kind of like a study. No, there's no study level,
either going up or going down. Either you are increasing in your
days, or you are decreasing, because by staying what you think,
is staying steady, it's actually a decrease, we want to increase want
to grow closer to Allah subhanaw taala. Many of them said, there's
no back in the day that I don't get closer to a loss. But I don't,
you know, something new becomes apparent to me or available to me
and I learned something new. There's not a lot of buttock and
that type of thing. So they're looking for the blessing. That's
why they emphasize the spiritual routines and when one wakes up in
the morning, to head to wobbu, to be in a state of war to pray the
pleasure to do this the character of God, to up until sunrise. To
have this time it unlocked, you know, to keep oneself busy, so
that we're busy with good so that you don't become busy with evil.
And this is one of the things that MEMA Shafi said he said I spend
time with the Sufis and I learned two things. He said the one thing
that they say and what took us safe that time is like a sword. So
either you cut with it or katsu. So if your time just kind of
haphazard and you don't
structure your time in a positive way, then it will cut you right it
will it will it will
debilitate you or eventually destroy you if you don't structure
your time in a positive way. And the other word that he learned
another saying that he said is nasaka Ilam there's gonna have
been Hi Charlotte Bishop, your neffs if you don't keep it busy
with good, then it will be cute keep you busy with evil. So both
of them have something to do with how we spend our time our most
basic resource, right our basic capital is time how do we spend
our time so
let's go on
and read the last section of this discourse
he says you have to learn the studying and if you're not Yuka
indica will do when he started. He was interested later we will not
hold him till he died to what he made with the indica marathon to

So I will do one con.

So he says Page 212 For those who are
following along or young men do not ignore mean follow your own
subjective thinking because you go astray. Anyone who tries to get by
with his subjective ideas alone will go straight on and fall zanla
and slip zanla when you rely entirely on your own thinking you
are deprived of guidance and protection, because you do not
look for them, and do not see the reason for them. You say I can
manage without the knowledge of the scholars of the art of it. You
they claim to or in or knowledge where so where's the practice that
I'm in? What is the effect of this claim? What is his corroboration?
The validity of your claim to knowledge will be demonstrated
only by practical action. Sincerity is laws.
And patients suffered in the face of adversity. And by natural being
changeable, not getting worried and not complaining to other
creatures. You are blind. So how can you claim to be perceptive,
your intelligence is defective. So how can you claim to understand,
give up your false pretension and repent to Allah Spano Tata, he is
the one you need to the exclusion of any other you must turn away
from everything and seek the creator of everything. Do not
concern yourself with those who can be broken and restored,
destroyed and control attend to the private business of your own
self. And this is part of a hadith it can replace Nasik until it is
tamed and really knows its lord, then you may pay attention to
others. So let's just look at that part.
So this at the federal road, or in fraud, or stigma, but Rocky, as he
calls it, so to see yourself as self sufficient, and not in need,
and making your own decisions. And generally this is what gets people
into a lot of trouble.
Even the Prophet SAW Selim was told by Allah subhanaw taala, to
seek counsel,
he was told by the last one to seek counsel from the Sahaba who
share were harmful on Fifth as empathic and Allah Allah, share
with them, seek counsel from them, fayda Assumpta. Right, if you are
now resolved to a certain course of action, then the work of Allah
Allah, right for token Allah, then you have reliance upon Allah
subhanaw taala. But to reach the decision, right, you know, how
people reach the decisions that they do, is, I think, a lost
science or lost art.
Our culture has conditioned us to think this whole idea of, you
know, pull yourself up by the bootstraps, and you know, you're
going to make it on your own. And,
you know, it's, you're the hero of your own story. And, you know,
even in popular culture, always in the movies, you see, you know, the
hero is the one that doesn't need anybody and leaves everybody
behind. And, you know, MCS is able to figure it out on their own,
without anybody's help for the most part, and that sort of thing.
And that's actually quite a dangerous way to go about doing
things because we need other people and we need people who are
wiser than us. And we need people who are sick of God commands us
first degree Incoterm, that Allah will seek the people of
remembrance, and well, it's those who are constant, in the
remembrance of God and in their knowledge of Allah enquanto
Natalia moon, if you don't know, then you should ask them.
And so there's no weakness. It's not a sign of weakness to ask
others if you don't know it's actually a sign of strength, and a
sign of confidence in your own self that you're willing to take
the advice and willing to take the counsel of others. And in this
sense, we can reconcile some of the
let's say the currents within the Islamic tradition or the deen that
talk about on the one hand dunya is dangerous stay away from it.
The Hadith of the Prophet SAW accident that he he alluded to are
they can be hoisted Nasik you know, if you see people are going
astray, and the robots are talking that people don't know anything.
Then I make a voice agnostic stay to yourself and
That's the kind of moral hammer, you know, don't don't dress people
in that hammer in the general sense, stay close to yourself and
protect yourself and that sort of thing.
So that's one kind of current with within the Islamic or the
Prophetic teachings that we find. And then we find another current
that tells us to, to give and to, to protect others, and to strive
and to National Academy to Dawa and to speak, the truth had done
the Sultan injure, even if it's a corrupt power before you to help
people to help the orphans. So they seem
contradictory. But they're not contradictory. One way, I think,
looking at the six words, and we can reconcile them is, it depends
on upon where you are inside. So when you when you engage with
others, and when you engage with outside world, you want to be
sincere about it. And if you are not quite ready at that level, to
be sincere about it, and you need some spiritual purification to
happen first, then maybe it can be hoisted enough sick, maybe then a
strategic retreat is the best way to say it. So when we talk about
attic F, in Ramadan, for example, spending the last 10 days and 10
nights or how many number of days or nights in domestic just for
prayer and reflection and thicker, and also, we talk about Osella.
Right? Isolation for a period of time, let's call them strategic
retreats. And that's supposed to be the permanent way that we live,
but their strategic, so not that we can avoid people. But we want
people to avoid us because we're not ready in a state to tolerate
and to be compassionate and to be merciful.
If you look at the people of CNN, if you look at the people that you
consider to be sitting with an eye that I'm better than them, then
you're not ready for that yet. If you feel that you're better than
people because of where you're at, then you haven't tasted that call.
We haven't tasted the, the station of,
of what he's talking about Muhammad poem of nada, if you see
yourself as better because of some particular act that they did, or
some expectation that you have, but when you see them making
mistakes, and singing, and you look at them with compassion, with
mercy, what we call it a shock, or a hammer, you feel driven that you
want to help them and pull them and take them by the hand and
bring them out of that situation. Then Allah subhanaw taala has, he
has turned your heart and maybe now you're ready to engage with
them in the right way. But if your idea of Dawa is fire and brimstone
and to yell at them, and to you know, have this anger in your
words, because you're angry with them, because of what they their
acts that they did we don't we don't despise the left we don't
despise the human beings themselves their essences we've
made despise what they do. And we see that their internal battle

Allah smart, Allah knows it's not going to happen. But nevertheless,
the methodology of the Tao is such that this is how we approach
people, at least initially, we give them a chance. Right? And we
have to be able to tolerate much from them. If you're not ready to
tolerate hurt, and sharp words and criticism, and things like that
