			wa Salatu was Salam ala ala Nabi Ababa, honorable Prime Minister, esteemed guests, students of other
university and everybody that has come to attend a salaam alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu. It is
something to really think about that in the illiterate Bedouin Society of a seventh century Arabia,
in a land where there was not a single library, much less University in a place and a city of
Makkah, where less than 1% of the people could read and write. Allah chose to begin the revelation
of the final book with the word Accra, which means to read, what an amazing choice in a land where
nobody could read. And reading and writing was unknown, there was no madrasa. There was no school,
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:56
			there was no professor, Allah chose to begin the revelation with Accra. Why? Because Allah subhana
wa Tada is indicating that change must begin via knowledge. Change must begin via education. That's
where everything begins. You will only change when you have that education, when you know what to do
and how to do it. And that is why our Prophet sallallahu ala he was setting them became the greatest
leader, the greatest mover and shaker via the knowledge that ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada bestowed upon
him. Knowledge is what transformed our OMA from being a backward paganistic society in Arabia to
ruling the world in less than 100 years from China to under those Islamic civilization became the
		
00:02:56 --> 00:03:36
			global leadership. And this is incomplete congruence with what the Quran teaches us or our banner
Atina for dunya Hasina. Woodfill accurately Hasina. All too often we believe that religiosity is
separate from the deen and dunya that when you become religious, you have to leave this world. On
the contrary, Allah says the best Muslims, they are the best in this world and there are going to be
the next the best in the Hereafter. And that's what our institutions have done. Our institutions
trained people in the sciences of the deen and the sciences of the dunya there is no dichotomy
between religious knowledge and between secular human knowledge the both are from ALLAH SubhanA wa
		
00:03:36 --> 00:04:17
			Tada, the one is divinely revealed, and the other is divinely gifted. So that we can, we can use our
faculties to learn and to educate. And therefore it is something that really brings a great pleasure
to me to see a university local audit that is trying to synthesize the way that it used to be
synthesized religious sciences and secular sciences. We form over here in sha Allah Allah, the next
movers and shakers, the next leaders because in the end of the day, knowledge is not meant just to
transform you. It is meant to transform others knowledge is not meant to just enlighten you to
change you. It is meant to impact other people in the Quran we are told the methodology of the
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:59
			Prophets the goal of the prophets is in UI to inland Islam. Hi, Mr. Thought I want to bring about
reformation and positiveness wherever I go. I want to bring Islam we all understand Islam or the
word in order to inlet Islamize thought, I want to make a change to the best of my abilities. It is
not an Islamic to want the best of the deen and dunya. In fact, one of the Quranic DRaaS tells us
that the righteous desire to be changers makers, that righteous desire, ethical leadership, one of
the Quranic doors, what you're dealing with Tokina Imam, oh Allah make us leaders of the righteous.
We ask Allah we don't crave leadership for the sake of ego
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:40
			We don't crave leadership for the sake of prestige for the sake of honor. We crave an impactful
relationship with society such that the righteous take us as role models, we want to make a change.
And the best way to make that change is by being ethical leaders by being visionaries. Every single
prophet came with that change that change begins with knowledge and with the self and then you take
that knowledge and then you change other people and leadership does not necessarily mean only
political, you can be a leader in business, you can be a leader in management, you can be a leader
even in your household leadership can be done at every single strata of society. It is done by
		
00:05:40 --> 00:06:21
			following the Sunnah of the Prophet system, and by being the best that you can be our Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Allah loves that when one of you is assigned a task, you do it to
the best of your ability, you do it with perfection. This is an authentic hadith, Allah loves when
you have a responsibility, you do it to the best of your capability to do it is religious to be
ethical leaders. It is a part of our religious framework and our mandate to create change, positive
change, wherever we go and to be role models. The Prophet Isa pray to Allah, O Allah, ich Agni,
Mubarak and a nama could make me bless it wherever I may be the great student of the process. And
		
00:06:21 --> 00:07:00
			even Abbas he commented this dua means that isa prayed O Allah, wherever I go, I make a positive
transformation of ALLAH, any gathering I'm in make it a positive gathering make it something good
for me. This is all in the norms of ethical leadership and Subhanallah brothers and sisters and
Hamdulillah. I am of course Pakistani by Origin born and raised outside of Buxton, and I want to say
something from my heart about this people of Pakistan, my people, I have traveled the world I live
in America. One thing about our people to Pakistani people, one thing about them, wherever they go,
they become active in Islam. They're the ones that build the misogyny, they're the ones that build
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:40
			the Islamic schools and hamdulillah our comb our people, they have a love of Allah and the love of
the Prophet salallahu audio setup and a love of this Deen I have traveled to over 50 countries. And
I say this not just because my origins are from this country. I do not know of any other nation
state overall, in which the love of this deen is so deeply set in the psyche of the people. And that
is a very, very positive reality. And that is why anything that happens here has the potential to
transform the global scene. I firmly believe that we can have a revival from this region and under
the leadership of our honorable Prime Minister with this vision of other university where we teach
		
00:07:40 --> 00:08:19
			leadership and management skills in light of this era, we take the best of what the West has to
offer and we take the best of our deen and we combine it together to form a new breed a new
leadership in which insha Allah Tada we will demonstrate what it means to be a righteous Muslim
grounded in the humanities grounded in management grounded in the sciences and that is the ultimate
goal of our banner Arjuna for dunya has an orphan our karate Hasina, we will demonstrate that we can
do this we shall do this my vision is sha Allah is that this isn't just the first such university it
will be the first of many more universities and it will be the springboard from which many other
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:31
			such visions are formed and whatever humble contributions I can make under the leadership of our
chairman and all of the faculty I am happy to do so just Nakula who came on was set on why they come
rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:33
			yeah.
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:55
