			Liga.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			La
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			Liga, your subject,
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:16
			woman
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:25
			and the law always litigate with the principle of law which says that we're paired with
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:28
			the law,
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:40
			we testify that none of us would be a butcher by a law, and that the purpose of the law was such
that it is worshipping the slave and final message, as it has been for the last few
		
00:01:42 --> 00:02:19
			years at our school. And this is a two parter that I intended for it to be something that's relevant
for you as a young Muslim men. But more importantly, that it's something that is a life lesson that
you can take on into your future and be able to share it with those who are near and far. Last week,
I spoke to you about the importance of honesty and that your word is your bond is the thing that
hold fast to the loss of time and speaks of a strongest hand hold. And the only way to withdraw that
your word to a law is
		
00:02:20 --> 00:03:07
			a law. That's the thing that you hold on to with severity and strength, to make money from those who
are infuriated and seeking the truth in this life. So you will be rewarded in the next. Today, I
want to speak about one of the most important aspects of gaining maturity, and coming to a sense of
awakening, which is that as you begin to develop and as your age advantages, but more importantly,
as your mind begins to grow, you will come to learn that one of the things that separates you from
other things created by a law is that you will have an ability to predict future consequence. And
this isn't something that other animals are able to understand.
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:25
			They're not able to understand what will come tomorrow, or the day after you need to reason with
your pet cat and say to the patient, I will give you food in two hours. It doesn't understand the
time and space in that sentence. But you and I
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:30
			have given the ability to describe and learn things that are
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:34
			the basis of us being given this knowledge.
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:51
			And understanding that what we say, what we write what we do, what we perform in our life has very
much of consequence today, but into the future.
		
00:03:52 --> 00:04:23
			The younger you are, scientifically speaking is the less likelihood that your brain has developed an
ability of understanding consciousness. So as you were young, your parents would worry about you
crossing the road or coming close to the sidewalk. Because as a two year old, three year old, seven
year old, you still couldn't understand as much as an 18 year old that what I do now could be life
or death if I cross over this cycle.
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:48
			And for that reason you find in a lot of countries around the world that there's an age where a
person is no longer dealt with as a child, but is dealt with as an adult. And for almost all of you
seated in front of me under the age of 18 you are still considered children in the eyes of the law
that we actually do perform are not the same as I
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:51
			do with good performance.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			This is very similar to what we have is
		
00:04:56 --> 00:05:00
			I want to jump out today to understand the words of the problem.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			Until the law, it was really said, in the words of a of
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:10
			a person that may speak just the one word that you would think you
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:23
			have in mind, say something, type something, watch something, hear something, go to a certain place,
and they're not thinking in their mind that it has a big consequence, that they underestimate
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:34
			a person's mind do something, share something, hold something be in a place that in their mind, they
think, Oh, it's not really that big of a deal.
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:53
			But that actually is the that unordered that statement that can be V 59. Can you pull them down into
Hellfire, meaning it can pull them away from doing good to further and further stepping away from a
law some kind
		
00:05:54 --> 00:06:20
			of the worst consequences for you and I is got a lot deprives us of feeling what others feel when
they worship a lot, I want you to think about this. He will tell you, you know, when you stand in
front of a mob, you should be humble, you should find shyness you should have that you should find a
sense of humility. And you might be thinking to yourself right now. So come about when I sit in
front of a lot of founders were most afraid it's like maybe you have their data.
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:36
			And the problem is, is a law of problem is that your heart has become so detached from the law and
attached to other things that you find it difficult to understand and consistence.
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:52
			So a lot regularly reminds us to have a tough one. If I was to translate the word tougher to you,
which is what I reciting the first three opening verses and I do it every July because the
competition every July. Yes.
		
00:06:54 --> 00:07:03
			Oh you believe if you are believers to a law, what does that word mean? It means that I live my life
knowing that there are countries.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:12
			So I better be afraid of Jenin I better be afraid of a loss seeing me doing what other people I
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:23
			I better be modest in my behavior and my words and my actions and they shouldn't be worried about
others, as much as I should be worried about the long
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:27
			end with this final message of the Prophet.
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:29
			He says
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:42
			your measure of piety, your measure of the love of law, your measure what you feel in your heart is
not seen by others.
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:50
			Look, you know, look how much fabric she has.
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:57
			You can look at a person and say, Oh look, they always wear what is referred to as Arabic clothes.
They must be
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:06
			just don't judge a book by its cover. In fact, you don't judge a believer by their beard.
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:08
			You don't believe
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:24
			anyone can wear the folding diamond every man. This slowly doesn't make you a scholar even if
scholars weird. That doesn't make you a Muslim. Even the Muslims were what makes you a worshiper
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:41
			along with your tongue, but on the Day of Judgment, it's proof against you and not for you, with
your heart, not feel I'll speak more about this afternoon.
		
00:08:55 --> 00:09:27
			prophets I send them more miserable experiences will be like why even at that time, I was worried
that people will lose people who go too far. When the Prophet spoke about experience, and he
described these people as being people who pray a lot fast a lot I memorize the whole time. And
you'd be shocked. You say isn't that what every father wants for their children? Isn't that and it
teaches in school I want you to memorize. I want you to do regularly consistent your prayer. I want
you to honor
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:32
			the pain and the need to be charitable to others. And the answer is yes. But
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:56
			the Prophet said that at the end of the times there will be men and women who have gone to extreme
away from Allah who went Do you see them and pray how much they pray, how much prayer how devoted
they look how they appear, you will say you you will look at yourself and say maybe my prayer is
inconsistent.
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			You will
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:07
			So that you can do this on it, you will look down at your prayer compared to their prayer your car
into their car. But then that
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:09
			way,
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:13
			although these people read the form, they memorize it.
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:18
			It doesn't go down to their
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:39
			meaning it's on my tongue. And it's in your actions, but it's not in your court, what comes down
when it comes down to, it hasn't moved their heart, they don't have true piety. They don't have true
understanding of a law, they have a cool feeling that they have a separation. And there's two levels
of extremes.
		
00:10:40 --> 00:11:23
			One way to go too far in seeking to do good, and the wondering, you try trying to change the faith.
And instead of doing what you're asked, you're neglecting your score that is not your will and is
pronounced that you don't care to change if you're a person who is insensitive to the needs of
others, and not the other extreme, both of them had that poisonous effect on the heart. And the
consequence of that is that you don't think of consequences in the future. So you say things that
hurt people, when you think about the way you type things, or share things or watch things that
nobody knows you've seen except a law and you see like cotton that way. And you limit your
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:29
			consequence to what happens here and now. And you forget
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:36
			that good lord, never forget and hold everyone accountable.
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:39
			I asked him
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:42
			to increase our
		
00:11:44 --> 00:12:13
			our secretive view of the law, our secret of the love of law, that we are generally with our
products more than we seek to show in our practice and actions to others. I pray that most of the
data humbles you before the end not just with your body but with your heart and with your behavior,
your attitude. I pray a lot for our staff and our students, our school and our parents, with
teachers and administrators that will lead our board to that which is pleasing
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:16
			is honoring
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:29
			and protect us from negligence in other duties here. The loss of either raises demands for our
future communities must protect us as a soldier among
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:32
			me, what
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:34
			do I want from
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:37
