He had that he had that on that book.
And then the law as
a
key tab, or whatever it was, you had
me on prison to call the Justice with this letter. And this is sufficient blessing. We got nothing else from this world. And we left with this man been blessed, despite all this material things, and we map it with every part of our final amongst his sayings
in the middle name, and that fear is not apparent, from the blessings of this world is that the snobs advice and depth of blessing
sufficient for us.
Last week, in another video, we were discussing the names of a lot
of names.
And we mentioned by way of introduction, the importance of these things.
For us as questions these days,
because it's very easy, especially for students at university, perhaps
secondary universities in this country,
to become second arise in our thinking,
in other words, to be able to conceptualize or to say, or to inherit, the Appalachian Muslim,
but not to the internalizing and actual lies into the depths of our being the reality of the unseen.
So that would include the reality of the loss of time or the reality, of genuine reality of heaven, reality, the reality of health, and other aspects from the unseen realm.
So, we, if we don't know the name of the person who can't believe begin to build that person,
they're just a stranger to us. When we learned the names, if you learn the activities, the characteristics at that point, we can say, we know that a person, so a stranger walks by, you know, that person know,
you don't know their names, you don't know any of that attributes, the quad, the qualities, the characteristics.
And so it's important for us to know the names of a lot as a key for us to begin to tune the nose.
So we know the names. And we know the meanings associated with a lot, then we move our creative of the realm of the abstract into the realm of the perceptive, the perceivable.
So we mentioned last week, the name of
a center and movement. And we stop this will continue because some people cook more than by repeating that, so we start with
his general meeting,
is said to be
the journey is probably
one of
the manifestations of virtual gathering in this world.
All manifestations of virtual virtually going to gather together in this world. So Allah subhanho wa Taala, is the source of all good, a lot of times the source of all words, there's no word to enjoy, except that a lot of time has blessed us with that virtue. There's no good that we enjoy except that a loss of time what Allah has blessed us with that in
your head, this university, each and every one of you, no matter how intelligent you are, you know someone more intelligent than you from your friends. But they're not accusing you of it. And if there's any good in that as of less than one the loss of habitat that is given to you buddy denial of use.
And so we should understand that we should also understand or we should endeavor,
as we're talking takanobu locked in there to go in yourself with the character trait symbol. So as relates to this name,
Try our pilot live to be repository of virtual good.
When a lot of time he was us and he brought him by the Senate in
that era, he was in one nice meeting of that he was a leader.
As we get email me so he was, he was a leader. But it also means that he was a repository of virtually good qualities that would be scattered
and selected the visuals. This individual is extremely honest, this individual was extremely courageous, this individual was extremely faithful, etc. They were minimize each and every one of them and he brought he Miley's to them. And then he brought him to Kenya home, let me tell you that. So we should strive to be Paragons of virtue of Paragons of good. And we shouldn't shy away from that some people, even some Muslims
have that because they fear they might be ridiculed. Oh, he thinks he or she thinks she's Miss goody two shoes. He thinks he's all that. And we make no commitment. We don't say we're
good, we try our best to be virtuous. And we talk title of Best of equally.
Why? Because we're not looking for the people that might criticize us, one of the characteristics of the believers, and we should be aware of this, because the people who are shamed into being a Muslim, the people who are walking around with their heads, hello, and despondency in their heart, because of this so called Islamophobic climate so called
is is more illusionary than real.
If those people don't take pride in this religion, and if they don't work through this we live in, and the federal strive for it, because they believe it has something good to offer humanity alone, bring other people as he says to us. Yeah.
He's impressing us. Yeah.
Come on, Dr. Phil, for so for yfp. Now, hopefully, you
can add a piece of VB lab where the whole folder nomoto there and then it kind of will live up to it being yourself one more or less. For now I need new believers, whoever turns it back from helping this deal. So
don't do that they're mainly attended to middle school. It's not up to their faculty. It's not an akima. It's not a belief. It's in assisting and working and helping the religion. Many are tempted.
If you turn back from helping this religion alone will bring another people who he will love that they will love. That's the first characteristic, they will love the loss of
meaning the love for love will be greater than their love for anything else. Because we
as the poet said, the ones who love somebody, they obey them. And if we love someone, more than a loss of autonomy,
that's who we undertake. We want to dress like them. And not like according to the ones pleasing to us.
We want to look like they want to smell like
yes.
When they do
that those who believe a more intense than their love for love and their love for anything anyone else meaning their first obedience is to have some kind of autonomy and then the men will tear one who loves them love they obey them. And still he says the people would love to love
the hippo, he will love them.
And they will love them. And
they'll be gentle to the believers.
And they'll be far in the face of arrogance, rejected rejecters of the page so not ordinary people who might not be Muslim. A lot of time to tell us
in New York City, a lot of us will be concerned those who have not caught you driven from your homes, from your homes that you're
Good equitable treatment.
But those arrogant people, and those people who are wreaking havoc upon them, those people are orchestrating the policies that are pushing Muslims from their land and turn them away from them and murdering there to the police shooting fun with
you.
Which
is an all manifestation of struggle.
We struggle working to stop some of these old oppressive policies is worth the struggle to educate ourselves to take advantage of the opportunities you have, that no other community in this room has. We have access to educational institution.
Even if we fail, at first, we can go to community college because we just told me my stuff in high school.
Were actually like
some Supreme Court nominees in high school. Totally messing up.
Raising gentlemen,
Baba smart we attempted we could go to community college, get serious, raise our grades transferred to UC Berkeley,
or Stanford for that matter.
Right. We can go to decried we can go to a Technical College, we can learn a skill, we have options. Many Muslims, they only have one option. That's the National University. And if they don't make it into the National University, that's it. But they even before they get there, they don't make it successful from high school and junior high school that's in sixth grade. They go apprentice with an auto mechanic, or go apprentice with the baker. That's it. They're done by the laws blessed us with these resources. And so I'm struggling to take advantage of them on behalf of this Boogeyman, and on behalf of those who don't have this opportunity
to head into many other manifestations.
The important thing Jay Gould a piece of meaning that they struggle, they don't look at life as just settling down the river seven deputy on the good ship lollipop.
They understand life is a struggle. Like the series, we have our moments of happiness, aloneness of celebration to have my evening.
We have a wedding, we have our feast. But those are punctuation marks on sentences of seriousness, when given a mentality where our whole life should be fun that night should be a party again, we try to punctuate it with moments of seriousness. We turn it around the desk, the size of
the true Reality of Things will be turned around when we look at pictures of teenagers from the 19th century. There's a young man, he's 14 years old, and he's there with his 13 year old wife, which was a lot of fun those days to get married that young and he's serious, and we get scared with a guy that is really serious.
He can become a father and she's a grown woman, she can become a mother.
There's no Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy.
There is
and when we transfer the serious seriousness of life into follow the game to party when it's time to get serious, we don't know how to get serious.
And we have a nervous breakdown and ended up on Prozac or something.
So I was telling us about it.
market has its moments of fun and relaxation and enjoyment.
You own a piece of video.
On the lower left hand
side, we have Muslim boy chasing the acceptance of people who are equally devious and rotten to the core.
Then we compromise our religion.
So most people they want to live
criticized, criticized,
criticized by my lawyer, then it's all right.
Well, let
me just say,
time, there
was a lot less
bounties, and he was his most knowledgeable.
And as with
so this is Hayden, so we should try them.
We should try trying to be good people. And we don't care if people say they think they're our goody two shoes.
We don't think anything. We're trying to worship a loss
and gain the pleasure of a loss of time and prepare for death, which is something they didn't even like knowledge. They're so busy partying, and having fun and not getting the food that you would get, they're going to die because
we just acquired a 13 year old child last weekend. As a reminder,
Jeff, Jet and moto
turbo suddenly that was awarded
to you. So you know, this is gonna die in two weeks. So you better get it together. You will mess it up two weeks, you know
that
in the fall, sometimes that comes when you don't know if you really want to be a customer. Sometimes that comes unexpectedly.
Where
is Rick? net? He's alone.
Sunlight
as
some of the rules that say there's no, there's no human manifesting of this quality. But relatively speaking, there is in the sense that we should try to be that exceptional person and our character and our studies.
Our ratio, we should strive to be that rare person.
The compelling we can.
But there is another meaning of Japan. So we say
that he he mended the world.
So a lot of
business rules and a lot of things.
So we should be people who endeavor to know
that people are suffering. And not just the physical wounds, the wounds of the hearts.
People are suffering what we call the diseases of despair. You'll get the suicide rates in this country.
123 people every day committing suicide, the almost 4000 suicide attempts in this country, which means this far more, because many of them are reporting
their
alcohol consumption, not alcohol related that is probably 500 of those car accidents, domestic violence
that fix a broken rage people kill people or get an accident. What substance three to 241 every day 123 suicides 170 opioid fatal opioid overdoses. These are called diseases of despair. These diseases of despair are indication that people's hearts are hurting and the wisdom should be
we should be the people who are healing people's hearts. We should be the people who are
beautiful open these establish these ecosystems and establish balance between the many tells us
swab the palate of established white people in wisdom in
the center
to swamp the palace.
The palace has been disrupted and the earth is wounded. And we should be in the forefront of those people and debris to heal the earth.
And yes, this is not the challenge. We should be approached as people trying to set things in order. So they said his name
For this aspect, moving away from the compelling aspect, and mostly the one who sets things in order
to the corrupted,
that should be, we should see that as our duty.
This is the hockey lab
chapter in the book related to the author looking left and pulling yourself the character traits of life said there is a 52 Minute Manifestation of this particular day. And that is elevating themselves and elevate themselves above that which was lonely. And by not doing know better than that. I'm better than that. You want me to do this better than that you want me to drink until I found it on myself and almost passed out
and exposed myself to splitting headaches. And my entire thing is no productivity, because I can't study, all I can do is lay in bed and take Advil and pray that my headaches going to go away. I'm better than that.
At the chemical who want
to work for them.
That's a human manifestation.
So
time doesn't allow to go beyond these couple of legs.
But hopefully, bless us to internalize these meetings. And then what kind of lessons not understand that these descriptions of our Lord, bless us that make a lot of room for us
to internalize that the reality of our
of our soul, and then everything I'll go, there's a lot of stuff to look for anything less than 100, some alone or they will send it down, internalize that to the depths of our soul. And then we know your very own Lord, as as he said, those people who will read your return back they'll be the quality and that will be the characteristic. So let us not be the ones who are replaced. Notice be the one the law replaces those who refuse to do the job.
You just
have to
stay
for city saving. He was he was a
surgeon Southern lie. He was that people test the EMF law. Most of us said he didn't have enough coverage, the IUD? No,
no, he was off. He was in the testing era and have somebody listening to the first football they might say, where's the joy, the joy is not to be followed in with two things. The joy in life is to be found in the requirements of the loss of joy, the joy in life is to be followed. And the realization that we're the recipient of the laws of mercy starting at a meeting started with the mercy of this man, and were the recipients of the Lord's grace. The grace undeserving lessons along is really he Grace's us with that which we don't deserve. He knows that he doesn't less than that. Extended lessons to US based on our merits, extended three
pieces.
But that's the worldly material lessons but it only gives deep to those who knows.
The world freebie everyone
knows he loves so what are
the topics of the law boy says
Before the last
say,
in the grace of Allah
His mercy and rejoice
is greater that anything they can gather from this world.
So
that will be
returned to
those
who are
amongst the meaning of here
amongst the meaning of Boise is giving preference.
So when when when the mother bird comes back with a warm, he could have been the warm,
but she gives preference to the little birdies in the nest and she gives them the warm. Actually, she eats it, and she regurgitates it so they can happen.
She gives them the one,
you know, the penguins,
the penguins, when they
have to go to the sea, and they stock up on our fish, they could all just digest it all. But they say that they go back through the eyes of the court that the snow of the Antarctic, and they feed the baby penguins. And so they give preference to the Patriots. So that's one of the meanings of the football. So we should be people, we should be able to pop TV, people get your preference. Now people are describing my rights, my rights, my rights.
I'm going to say something very controversial.
Well, it's just to make a point.
I was somewhere and I mentioned that it's wrong for a biological man
to go to a woman's bathroom, because he wakes up one day, a woman
wants to be a woman. So his gender identity allows him to go to the woman's bathroom, I sat down with someone protested against that, that you you denied the rights of transgender people.
Those women that bathroom don't have lights.
So I said you're guilty of what you're accusing me of. You say not violating their rights. But you don't acknowledge the rights of those women.
And the guy can be
like you read the stories of these people who go to the women's prison and started * the prisoners. So those women don't have rights.
So what is my point, my point I will default in looks at the rights of others first.
And this is just obsessed with their lives. Our obsession should be with our responsibilities, because fulfilling our responsibilities is what's going to get us to
this might give us a higher station agenda because a lot
of press
went along with
it. And I live in New
York structured telling them, there's nothing wrong
with that, if I present they accept that, etc. The last time I spoke to him when he
when they said we would make each other as we were of the care of the request person because between that person and the law, there's no there's no veil. Why? Because along loves that person. And so not securing our rights might give us a higher station agenda because of the law, the law.
But it's our responsibilities is undertaking in fulfilling our responsibilities.
And so when
we started
when our minds are secularized, we don't think about it.
Just
because
you're really in the
sector.
There's nothing to sacrifice one's rights for
why should I? Why should I renounce my rights?
Well
I'll just be fair for this world
when
so conclusion aka sacred archery rights, etc. What I'm saying, if we don't get it
within our all of them are some of them. Understand, if you patiently persevere in dealing with the hardship that involves elevating your station agenda philosophy,
there's more to life there's more to reality than this world.
And if you believe that, then you're not a believer,
because one of the foundations of it is belief in the unseen and the belief
and what comes after the last
minute
