00:00:00 --> 00:00:02
			As you probably know, you have seen the
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			videos and the pictures and the images that
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:07
			came out from Gaza from last night's aggression
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:10
			and attack on the civilians who are living
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:14
			in tents around the hospital seeking shelter and
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:23
			protection and all kind of laws, divine laws,
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			even human laws, and aggression of that nature
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			is nothing more than an actual manifestation of
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31
			a genocide, really.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:36
			A deliberate attack on civilians and seeing them
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			and watching them burning alive.
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			I'm not really sure how many of you
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:41
			had the heart to continue watching that video.
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			I couldn't, to be honest with you.
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:46
			And subhanallah, what made it even worse for
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:49
			me is getting the news and receiving the
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			news that this young boy or young man,
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:53
			Shaban, may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala have
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:57
			mercy on him, who perished in that fire,
		
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59
			as you've seen him, subhanallah.
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:01
			He's hafidh of the Quran.
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:04
			He actually had a promising future.
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			He was about to leave the country when
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:09
			the doors were opened to go and continue
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:12
			on a scholarship for his education in engineering,
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:12
			subhanallah.
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:16
			Him and his mom perished in that fire.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:20
			And adding to this as well, and I
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:21
			don't know how many of you have seen
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:25
			the young boy, Adam, who came through Heal
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			Palestine organization from Gaza in order for him
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:31
			to get treatment for his amputated leg here
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			for the past few weeks.
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			And they've been visiting different masjids, different communities
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:38
			to advocate for the case and for other
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			case of young children in Gaza, subhanallah.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:43
			He came, him and his mom, for treatment
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:43
			over here.
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:47
			That young man, Shaban, is actually his cousin.
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:51
			And his mother is actually his mom's sister.
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			So you can imagine now this sister, sister
		
00:01:54 --> 00:02:01
			Najat, his mother is now grieving from far
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:06
			distance over her family and her nephew and
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:09
			her sister as well, whom she unfortunately watched
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			him just like we did in the news.
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:13
			May Allah have mercy on them, Ya Rabb
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:13
			al-Alamin.
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:17
			And if anything that we, that remind me
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			with anything here, remind me with the story
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:23
			of Ahl al-Ukhdud.
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says that they
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			may be destroyed.
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			They may be destroyed, those who have controlled
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:35
			the trenches that they dug for the believers
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:38
			back in the days, and they lit fire
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:40
			in there, and they threw the believers in
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:40
			it.
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:43
			As Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says, They
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:48
			were fueling that fire with all the woods
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:51
			and what you can imagine, subhanallah, firewood, to
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:53
			increase that fire and keep it raging.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			They're sitting there watching.
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:05
			And they're witnessing with their own eyes and
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:07
			now here with their own cameras what they've
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:08
			done to the believers.
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:12
			I mean, what was the crime that these
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:14
			innocent people had?
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			What crime did they commit other than saying
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:16
			la ilaha illallah?
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:20
			Their crime is in a muwhidin.
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:24
			They say la ilaha illallah, and their enemies
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:27
			and these criminals, they want to clean that
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:30
			land from anyone else besides them and their
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:31
			group and their sect.
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:33
			That's what they want.
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:35
			So they wipe out the believers so they
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:37
			can establish themselves in the land.
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:40
			That's their game and that's actually what they're
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			hoping to do and to get out of
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:42
			it.
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:46
			And unfortunately, I just thought that, subhanallah, just
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:50
			watching or reading the story of Ahl al
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			-Ukhdud is just something that could happen in
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:53
			the past, but now you see it here
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:57
			on a regular basis, using all kind of
		
00:03:57 --> 00:04:02
			technology and all kind of ammunition and bombing
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:04
			and so on only to target the civilians
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:06
			and with fire even.
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:11
			And watch them die while they're burning and
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			the whole world is doing nothing about it.
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:15
			The whole world is silent about it.
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:20
			I mean, subhanallah, the whole world is just
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:22
			being silent, like watching this to happen.
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			They're all like as if they're in agreement
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:28
			to do with them what they want and
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:29
			no one is going to bring these people
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:30
			to account.
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:32
			No one is going to bring them to
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			account for what they've done for the innocent
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			people and the civilians.
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:37
			So Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is there.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:40
			And no matter how much they try, Allah
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:42
			subhanahu wa ta'ala says, the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:47
			alayhi wa sallam says, Allah will give the
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:50
			aggressor a chance after a chance after a
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:51
			chance.
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:55
			Like so they can review and revise their
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:58
			ways and fix their ways and reconcile their
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:58
			ways.
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:02
			But if they don't, Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			'ala will take them swiftly.
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:06
			And as we see what they do and
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:08
			everybody just kind of like watching what they
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:10
			do, it seems that Allah subhanahu wa ta
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			'ala wants to show us all that when
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:16
			Allah's decree comes to them, that look, it's
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18
			because of all what they've done, all the
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			atrocities that they've been committing against innocent people,
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:23
			they deserve the punishment from Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:23
			ta'ala.
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:25
			We only ask Allah to make it swiftly
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:28
			and bring that peace and tranquility to the
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:28
			people of Gaza.
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			We ask Allah to protect them and keep
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:31
			them safe.
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:34
			We ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:35
			accept those who perish in that fire and
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:38
			all these crimes, to accept them as shuhada.
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:42
			We ask Allah to overlook their sins and
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:42
			forgive their sins.
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			We ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:46
			heal the wounded among them.
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:48
			We ask Allah to give shifa to the
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:49
			sick among them.
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:51
			Those who are absent, we ask Allah subhanahu
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:52
			wa ta'ala to bring them back again
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:53
			to their homeland.
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:56
			And you reunite the loved ones together in
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:58
			this dunya and in the akhira.
		
00:05:58 --> 00:05:59
			We ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:00
			give them that victory swiftly.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:06
			Please make sure to make dua for them.
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:11
			Inshallah for all the parents who are interested
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:14
			in learning about the BEAM program, both for
		
00:06:14 --> 00:06:17
			boys and girls, please attend the session inshallah
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:18
			wa ta'ala so you can hear from
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:20
			these young ones what they do and what
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:21
			they can do and how they can transform
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:22
			the communities inshallah wa ta'ala.
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:23
			Jazakum Allah khair.
