Hayaa

Salam Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh everybody, how are you guys doing? So I was preparing this lecture and I was reading up, you know, on how Yeah, modesty and not just modesty bashfulness China's self respect dignity. It's such an intense word in Arabic. I don't think any word in any language does it justice. And so Pamela I was reading about the higher of the Sahaba and see her smelling that I found like how you would crouch down when dressing up so that he wouldn't see himself undressed? Or how, you know, see the Ha ha, ha ha ha. And so, you know, Homer was buried in her room next to say the Mohammed and her father Abu Bakr, she said that she used to go normally in

her room, but once they hit November was buried in there, she said she would not enter the room, except when she wrapped herself in quotes out of higher respect or modesty, that Alma was buried there. And it made me think you're alone? If this was the level of hierarchy that certain AHA Isha had with a dead man, how should our higher be with men that are alive? How do we set our guidelines, especially in a time where it's been just, you know, it's so normal to chit chat and talk and kind of interact with the opposite gender. And this goes both ways, not just for women, but for men as well, the higher of talking and addressing the opposite gender, the messages that are being sent,

right? And subhanAllah sometimes, you know, not to, you know, put anybody on the spot or anything, but sometimes, you know, we can send somebody's like, hi, you know, how are you just out of nowhere, right? Where is the hijab? Where is the self respect? Well, why Allah subhana were to Allah when he gives us something to follow. It's literally to kind of protect us not to suffocate us. Never. Allah subhanaw taala created us and He knows how we best function and I repeat this over and over again, he knows what's best for us. So how are we with our hire? How do we walk? How do we talk when taking pictures, my beautiful girls and sisters, you know, our hijab is on our head, and then we see all

the different, you know, laying back and the, you know, the different poses and whatnot. Where's your hijab? You know, where's your respect for Las Panatela that Allah is watching me and I can't be sitting like this. I can't be talking like that. And boys as well on the other side, like I see a lot of like boys now, you know, with the theory, skinny tight clothing and, you know, trying to show the muscles like where is our HIA? Who are we trying to please? Our main purpose in this dunya is to please Allah subhanho wa Taala not other human beings. So be careful. You don't kind of like fall into the slippery slope because it is very tempting, right? We get all these likes, and we feel like

oh my god, people really like what I'm doing. Let me post some more. So ask the last panel with 100 to always give you higher because see the Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says that what higher and Eman Karina Jamia they are together their companions either raffia huddle if one of them is gone. The other leaves right away

Imagine if we cave in and we give up our modesty away goes with it our Eman your boss so scary will be so scary if you really like contemplate and comprehend this hadith when you give up your higher your modesty away goes with it your Eman the food of your spiritual heart. The thing that keeps this heart beating your Eman your connection with Allah subhanho wa Taala and see the Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the first two things that will leave this dunya are trustworthiness and higher. So ask Allah for them. We law Subhana wa Taala Europe, Europe makers from those who are modest, those who have dignity those who have self respect those who respect themselves and respect

others. And those who are aware of we the way they carry themselves the way they talk. The way they walk the way they love the way they message other people the way they comment and what they say and what they shouldn't be saying. Say Amin Amin Yelapa Hanuman Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
