Mohammed Camus Allah Allah Ibrahim ali ali Rahim. Allahumma barik ala Muhammad Ali Muhammad come
about aka Allah Ibrahim Ali Ibrahim Philae lemina. iNec Amita Majeed Alhamdulillah we're continuing
with our q&a with grill Li Ma'am, at Yahoo abraham.com forward slash school, and this is part of the
season one program, Mashallah, I thought I would just take a couple of minutes before we jump into
more of the questions. By just advertising and 100 lab we're going to be launching tomorrow in chat
		
00:00:45 --> 00:01:34
			la November the fifth, the registration will open for a young Muslim and a young Muslim as a guide
to puberty which are two important programs, complementary programs that are complementing to each
other. One of them is the Art of Manliness, which is a young men's program. And the other one is
heart to heart, a young woman's program, which is much Alan, myself and Dr. Amina ma are
contributing to Dr. Amina ma is a dear colleague, Mashallah. She's recorded a wonderful, wonderful
series for our young ladies who are maturing and heading towards adulthood. And I pray that Allah
subhanaw taala puts it in her scale and all of our scales along I mean, it is going to be a really
		
00:01:35 --> 00:02:24
			amazing kind of journey with that in shot law. It speaks about really important topics that not just
relate to the physical aspects of you know, cleanliness and purity, but to empowerment to
understanding our place to limiting bullying, to how to stand up for ourselves, the dignity of a
job, all of these are different things that are being addressed in child law. So look out for that
dropping tomorrow be ninja hater, Allah, as an independent kind of program, I believe it will be of
great, great benefit to a vast majority of our young students and young community Alhamdulillah
Alright, let's jump into some of the questions that are awaiting us. And I pray that Allah Subhana
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:32
			Allah, except from all of us a law home I mean, all right, so I'm just looking through our
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:50
			telegram posts that have come in. Alright, let's get through a couple of questions. There's a number
of questions that have come in related to our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and talking to our
friends about the prophets I send him so I'm just paraphrasing some of the questions here.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:54
			All right. So there's some students here from the UK saying
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:05
			about I want to be a Salah Lahore and he was solemn, how to speak about our profits, I sell them in
a positive way to people who don't
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:09
			know that he is a positive
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:36
			profit for us Salalah hunting and selling. Alright, so there's three important things I think, that
are always important to share with people when it comes to acquainting them with also lots of noise
in it. First is let them know about how he he is known in history, not just through the eyes of
Muslims, but say, Listen, you don't have to take a Muslims.
		
00:03:37 --> 00:04:23
			You know, Muslims perspective, why don't you go and see what some of the great leaders of history in
the past have said, and you know, there are incredible quotes of our nebia sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam his attitude is, you know, what he brought the, the changes that he has brought about, you
know, in one of the most powerful testaments is the 100 most influential people that the world has
known ranked number one is Mohammed sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, because in an economic, social,
political, cultural, religious, in all of those avenues, he is the top he's the one who has made the
biggest change that has affected human beings in our days and times and into the future. That's
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:59
			something that's not going to change. So in in understanding who the Prophet is from their own
perspective, that's important. Number two, the second aspect that I would share about the prophets
lie Selim is to speak about his character to speak about his words, and there's a series inshallah
that that will come out soon that's called did the Prophet really say that because it's surprising
to some people that the prophets I send them spoke, you know, particular words that are full of
wisdom full of peace because they don't know it also, lots of I sell them so when you say no
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:09
			Actually, that's something our newbies I send them said, It's surprising to some. And the third is
to answer some of their
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:50
			misconceptions about our interviews I send them. And that's something that should that can be done.
When you have developed your own understanding of hudl solos, I said that is when you have gotten to
a place you never wanted to be with people and go back and forth. No, no, no, he's this No, no, he's
that. You just want to be a provider of information. And that's the basis of our faith is that we
are people who provide information. Our aim isn't to convert anyone. My aim is to simply say, this
is what I believe this is why I believe it. This is where I've received it from femen chat affiliate
woman woman chat affiliate for the one who wants to believe they believe the one who doesn't doesn't
		
00:05:50 --> 00:06:35
			at the end of the day, all of us are accountable for what our knowledge is and what we know of God
and what we want to practice from that purpose. All right, so May Allah subhana wa tada make it
easy. Number two, okay, so there's another question related to how do you deal with someone who is
not? Who is not being respectful to our nebulous iclm and to our Islam? Alright, so haters gonna
hate, there's always going to be people who got something bad to say there's always going to be
people who irrespective of what you say to them, it's not going to make a change in their
perspective in their life. They're just going to be at negative, hostile, unwilling to to listen to
		
00:06:35 --> 00:07:17
			reason, unwilling to read for themselves just gonna regurgitate what other people have said.
Sometimes you just have to cut certain people out of your life. Is it really that important for you
to prove your point to a particular person? That answer is no. Be confident with univee Be confident
with your faith Be confident what you believe in. And for outline home had a hold of a hadith and
Lady Allah would say to the prophets, I send them that when people have been speaking with ridicule,
with hostility with vulgarity, turn away from them until they say a different word. So we, you know,
we just say, listen, let them ginagawa lady into you is your way of life me as mine, I'm happy and
		
00:07:17 --> 00:08:04
			contented and confident in what I believe. And you don't have to be friends with somebody who
doesn't treat you as a friend, you you can you can be an acquaintance, you can be somebody who knows
someone, but doesn't mean that you've necessarily made them a friend, a companion, someone who is
important to you in your life in that sense. So yeah, I'm a firm believer of if a person does not
add value to your life, if a person does not assist you, in your maturity in your mental state and
your spiritual states in your, you know, prosperity, then there is no real reason for you to hold on
so much to a relationship that's clear and obvious that it's not meant to be maintained in that
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:25
			sense, by the other side. So anyone who deals with you in that way, push, push back from the table,
and you will find other company. And if people change for you, if they change a lot says until they
change their narrative until they change their perspective, then yeah, we're Welcome to be in
happiness with everybody around us.
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:30
			All right.
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:37
			There's a question here on on the Facebook stream, Mashallah.
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:47
			When coworkers ask questions about Jesus, and we call him the prophet and not God. So that's a
that's a good question. Sister robot.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:09:03
			For us as Muslims, we understand the place of a Saudi is set up. And one of the things that I would
say to you is, whenever you're speaking about Jesus, and I have an article that I've written, why
Muslims love Jesus,
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:14
			and it might be something that will be helpful for you, I'll find it now for you and put it in the
comment section.
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:59
			May Allah subhanaw taala make it easy, but we love Jesus as Muslims, we love it. He sadly is that
for a number of reasons. And when people actually begin to see Jesus through our eyes, it's actually
something that's really powerful. So it makes a huge difference for people to know that we actually
honor Jesus as a messenger of God as someone who is blessed as someone whose mother was the best of
best of people of their time. As someone who was given miracles to be performed by a law, not by
himself, as someone who was protected and raised up by a lot and never died.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:51
			As someone who was never claimed to be the Son of God, but rather the son as in obedience to God and
the slave of Allah, not as in son in a biological sense, or a part of God, in that sense, we let him
in then. So just being able to allow people to understand our perspective is good enough. It's just
to say, Listen, if you really want to know what we believe about Jesus, here's, here's something you
can read. It's written by this, you know, person, that might be something worthwhile. So that's been
read by 1000s of people, and it's been shared by many, many people might be something that would be
of great value to you it here it says on Facebook alone, more than 8500 chairs for that particular
		
00:10:51 --> 00:11:10
			article. So let people know about it. People can speak to you about what they believe. But don't
feel it. shy to be able to say, Well, listen, we don't believe that. This is what we believe as
Muslims, right? That Truth and Honesty is really important. People want to know
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:28
			what we believe in to be on record that what we say to them, is the same as what we say away from
them as Muslims. A lot make it easy. Final question here in July. I always like to keep these
sessions short, is with regards to, here we go.
		
00:11:32 --> 00:12:17
			All right. Should we show respect to those who disrespect our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
we shouldn't just show respect to those whose disrespect the prophet SAW Selim. We should show
respect even to those who have not been respectful to Allah. Allah subhanho wa Taala commands Moosa
Allah is Salam in the urn, that when you come to Pharaoh for CODEL for all their level of Poland,
lay you now when you come to speak to Pharaoh, he's a person who's claimed that he is God, that
people worship him instead of Allah. Speak to him in a soft manner. So how to law meaning, be
respectful in your speech. Don't be vulgar. Don't walk in with abusive words with an abusive tone.
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:58
			Be a person who represents faith because you're confident in the truth, I don't need to put on a
show for it. So for somebody who has been disrespectful to the prophets, I send them we will let
them understand that we do not tolerate this we're not going to continue in a conversation in this
way. But we don't lose our perspective. We don't act in a sinful manner towards others because that
is greater disrespect for our Ws I tell him that we act away from his character, Allah subhanaw
taala compels us to always be in control of our emotions control of our anger, control of our
belief, our to be as I sell him, Allah has vowed what cafe unacademy stands in Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:41
			has given you protection from those who have really killed you or have spoken nice words about you.
jasola You and I are not the protectors of the prophets of Allah who it was sent him a lot is his
protector. Allah What do you let the manual Allah is my protector in your protector. We just stand
up for the truth Kunal ko wamena Lila hitch ohada because the truth is Mohammed Salim is the best of
humanity. And that's what and we're confident with that we don't need to prove it to anyone. We can
share information about him, but we don't need to prove it. So when somebody's being disrespectful,
turn turn away and remain with your respectful state. It is not an act of our tradition and sooner
		
00:13:41 --> 00:14:23
			to act in a vulgar manner to those who have acted vulgarly towards us. Allah subhanaw taala says
we're about to rock many Levine am Shawn Allen out of the house gonna wear either hot tub of matcha
Hey dude, corlew Salama that the slaves of the merciful law when they are spoken to with ignored
words by the foolish people. They turn away from them and say set ama Our aim is to find peace
between us and others and Allah subhanho wa Taala I pray that Allah subhanaw taala protects you and
