presence which is awareness that Allah
and this is Muhammed a senator block and
a Katara freedom to control over in
and this is what we want to create
muslim menthe men watson we that's what
we want to do but you can't have a son
without Mujahedin and retorted on Kabul
there's no a son without Mujahid ah
and so we are inculcating in our
children a love of struggle and a desire
to struggle and persevere in the path of
Allah and laziness has completely
dominated our Ummah we are omeka solana
and the Prophet Elias Adam used to seek
refuge from Castle OD become in a Nazi
with Castle I seek refuge in incapacity
and laziness and incapacity like the
Imam in Okayama josiya said incapacity
is when you desire to do something but
you can't do it laziness is when you
have the ability to do it but you don't
desire to do it wanna reveal a man
kids'll halothane both of these are
wretched States to be an energy zone
what Kosala lavinia - awesome I'm couse
Allah who gets up to their prayer like
lazy people and one ask upon the
hypocrites so we want to raise up an
Ummah that's based on Islam Eman and s
on which is the three dimensions of
Islam not just one not like now we've
got all these people walking around
thinking there are more men own you know
I'm a Muslim in my heart brother right
and that's what people have told me as I
was in one of the Muslim countries and
and this he said oh you're a Muslim from
America I said yeah he said hum did I
said are you Muslim guy I like to ask
these people sometime make him think a
little bit you know he's and you know
he's in Saudi Arabia you know 100%
everybody's Muslim here know you so are
you Muslim ass they're asking you are
you Muslim I said yeah are you Muslim oh
yeah I was born with some that doesn't
mean anything
I mean haven't you there's a band called
Babel rigde that means leaving Islam
once you were a Muslim and he said I'm a
Muslim here I said that's not where
Islam is that's where
Eman is Islam is outside right not iman
is not outside
Islam is outside Iman is inside and
that's the balance human being that's
called a moon ethic and a monetha
is the
where Islam is outside and there's no
Iman inside but there's no we don't have
a term that means a Muslim inside
there's no term in our vocabulary the
standard of excellence of these people
is academic achievement and I put an
emphasis on academic achievement because
you can look if this person who's now
accused of being the Unabomber this is
somebody who graduated with the highest
honors from Harvard the best university
that they have and he's a sociopath that
can't even socialize with human beings
this is somebody who got honours in
their in their educational system and
was a professor at a one of the top
universities so that's their criterion
of excellent that's not our criterion of
excellent if somebody's brilliant and
they're they're not they don't have a
lock they're a failure in the Islamic
educational system they're a failure if
no matter how genius they are and
brilliant and they can memorize
everything in quote everything and bring
it all together if they don't have basic
humanity they're a failure as far as the
Islamic model is concerned the the the
standard of excellence for us is xn and
a dub a dub which is right behavior
adapt discourtesy but it's a deep
spiritual courtesy it's not this lip
service it's it's somebody my debit
somebody who has has a deep and the
prophets allies and even though the
hadeeth has some weakness in it the
anima agree that it's a sound meaning
addabani rabbi fa ahsana ta'dibi my lord
has given me a dub and what excellent
Adam he gave me his a dub was based on
asana for a sonnet DB it means it came
from exon so his a dub was based on xn
and then the key teacher resource is
information experience that's the key
teacher resource in the kaffarah model
in the Muslim model is Taku a little
Colleen knowledge which equals element
Amman so the first criterion is that you
want a toughy to teach your child and
there's a beautiful story of even Abby's
a non-fatal Ani who was given when he
memorized Fatiha his father gave him 40
dinars which is a massive sum of money
when the Maya
who was teaching of Quran said Subhan
Allah you gave him 40 dinars al al
fatiha
yeah nice table here al al baqarah what
are you gonna give him for baccarat and
and even Abbas aids father said I don't
want you to teach my son either anta to
pay you more fatiha
PR Barina dinara letter of vive la d if
you have valued and fatiha with 40
dinars then you're not going to teach my
son and look who even have his ideas but
even Abizaid is not even Abizaid without
a bow even Abizaid the father and
there's no great island in the Muslim
world that doesn't have a great mother
and a great father behind him and I
guarantee you unless they were your team
and then they had a great more up B and
that's why the Prophet had the best of
the menorah B he had robbed banana mean
he was the ateam he was the orphan who
was trained and educated by the Lord of
the Worlds and that's why we're in
Naqada add a hood open al deen because
can a horrible al quran his cloak was
The Book of Allah that's how I should
described it and so the primary overseer
are the so-called experts standardized
test then they'll tell you how well your
child is doing if they get good grades
on the test
Oh your child is doing excellent well
he's totally anti-social he spends all
the day in front of this computer screen
he won't talk to us anymore that's
that's ok he's doing great in school and
least he's not out there in a gang or
something like that
right I mean really where is fun the
primary overseer is Allah we teach our
children that our lives more often that
are lies watching them wherever they are
that Allah has the angelic realm taking
care of them that we have two angels on
us wherever we go and they're with us
who Malcolm ænima come to Allah is with
you wherever you go in his knowledge and
this is what's inculcated into the child
so they know they don't they don't learn
to hide their shame as before Allah as
well as the creation your stamina Halep
Kamiya stamen and Malou well I said they
are ashamed before Allah just as they're
ashamed before the creation more so
before allah subhanho wa taala
and what happens
monetha society is that children are
taught to be ashamed in front of other
people but they have no shame before
Allah subhana WA Ta'ala will never be
lying in typical Hanna now in them so
there is the Quran is the standard so
the child learns that the standard by
which they are judges in the Quran if
they want to know how they are they look
at the descriptions in the Quran of
those who Allah has praised and of those
who he has blamed and they find out
where they fit in the Book of Allah
because we all fit in there any anyone
in this room if you want to know where
you are just look in the Book of Allah
Allah describes the Kafar Damona the
horn and the Muslim oon the mock me
known the Marcy known the fast upon the
valley mom you can find your name in
there I guarantee you Allah has a
lock-up for you Allah has a title for
you you'll find yourself in there all
time I will all find ourselves in there
and that title is what your gonna come
on the Yom Okayama with not a toast
Eddard Kabir not a on Fulani you're
gonna come with that title and then
angels teaching about the angelic realm
the parents and then the teacher and the
teacher is similar to the parents it's
really a more obvious Ani
and interestingly enough in the system
of education but put out forth by Rudolf
Steiner who was a German Christian he
believed that children should have the
same teacher in the primary level for at
least four or five years so that they
become like a parent to them and that
was the traditional model that the
Muslims used a teacher a child would
stay with a teacher for several years
usually four or five years and the
teacher became like a second father to
them or a second mother and they would
bring them gifts and on the Eids they
would bring them gifts and things like
this and they honored them like a parent
and in Mauritania one of the first
things they taught me was manna
McAuliffe for a book the one that
teaches you one letter is your father
in other words understand that when you
learn knowledge that that person now is
your Marathi he's your more active now
in the peer influence in the Western
kaffir model there is unchecked the pure
influence is unchecked
share al-haddad the mujaddid of the 13th
hidden e century the great yemeni
scholar said absolution Anatole ad Oh
dad the most corrupting element on
children is other children and how true
is that
because you put your children into these
schools and see how long they last they
just fall into that influence of the
worst elements and then here in the
Muslim the peer influence is focused on
shared responsibility mutual remaining
it's focused on tell one we teach our
children about to Alan we teach them to
work together we teach them about the
power of synergy that Allah subhana WA
Ta'ala has told us to stay together
while Tassimo be happy that he Demi and
well at afar Rocco
that the prophets all I said I'm said al
muslimin to Takata edema omaha me I
don't wash water to an animus you are
home well when Muslim you can you don't
be a he this is what we inculcate in our
children is that we're powerful in our
numbers and were weak when were broken
and divided and so we teach at the early
level and this is why there's disunity
all over the world because one of the
things that this kaffir educational
institution teaches people is to compete
in the worst ways with their own fellow
peers and the Muslims don't compete like
we compete in academics we compete with
our own selves our own inherent
capacities and this is why traditionally
the Muslims didn't grade children on a
standard a mean there were no grades the
grades is literally a 17th century
invention by a and low Saxon Cambridge
Don that's the truth Muslims never
graded their children and don't think
that they won't if you think grades are
the only thing that's the that teaching
them to do things just out of that note
they want da Rajat with Allah and Daraa
Shepherd with a lot of things that
nobody knows but Allah subhana WA to Ana
teaching them inculcating in them to
work together to help each other if you
read a beautiful book which was written
about the Islamic educational system
translated into English and the titles
lost me right now but there was a
beautiful section
on the preceptorship system of the
traditional islamic mattresses where
students would go to other senior
students and they would become like
students of the student and that was
because one student who was known to
understand the the books really well
they would go and that's the type of
relationship so there was a relationship
created of mutual responsibility and
that student would see it as an
opportunity to help his brother or to
help her sister and this is the way the
the educational system formulated I'm
gonna I've been given my notice here and
I'm really not done and I don't know if
we can I know we need to break for
makarov and then can we come back
can we come back for about probably 20
minutes and then I'll do some you know
we can talk about this I is that
acceptable for people just like um
enough Adam said oh my
Rahim bismillah ar-rahman rahim was all
Aloha I never stayed in a Mohammedan
shut off an MBA one more sitting or
anything so hamdu lillah yeah but I'm
doing this this subject this subject is
an extensive subject and it's really not
the subject of even an hour two hour
three hour presentation it it needs
serious deliberation and it really needs
some of the better minds of our Ummah to
come together and really look at what's
taking place because to deny that we're
in a crisis is really an act of
stupidity our ummah is in I think the
greatest crisis that it's ever been
confronted with much greater than the
time of salahuddin at AUV and the first
conquest that took place in Palestine by
the Crusaders were now followed with a
second occupation of Palestine by the
Jewish oppressors that exist there now
they're over there celebrating the
election of Netanyahu D right you know
nettan in Arabic means foul and Yahoo
Yahoo you know the Arabs have what's
called Tajin
in Arabic where they break like they
instead of saying y'all saw him they say
ya saw so yeah who is like thirty mob
yahoodi so we're dealing with Netanyahu
D the the foul list of the yahood
Natalia hood
and they put him in power because they
want really to squelch anything left of
the resistance that exists in that place
it's fascinating that the Hezbollah in
and I all these names are horrible for
groups to take names like that because
Hezbollah you know like the Prophet who
said to the Bedouin who said alone
matter how many what I am Muhammad and
what I thought I'm Savannah oh Allah
have mercy on me and have mercy on
Muhammad and don't have mercy on anybody
else
the Provencal I said I'm said you've
constricted the van by yup that wasa so
when a group calls himself Hezbollah
vehicle ASSA
you know the Hezbollah is not and the US
intelligence estimates their active
membership at eight hundred people right
so the Jewish terrorizing forces went in
there and destroyed homes and
infrastructure all over Lebanon because
of 800 people which is not the real
reason but the point being is that we
are in serious confrontation now part of
what existed at the time of salahuddin
AUB and we unfortunately we tend to be a
people who put our leaders so high they
become inaccessible and this is even
true of the the messenger of allah
sallallahu and he was a lamb who there's
no doubt he's of total helping laughs
he's the best of creation but he's also
loose well what a computer sunil I was
watchin husana in man can I ask Allah
when you're mad after what that Corolla
kathira he's the messenger is the
example for this Ummah and what's
happened in many sections of the Muslim
Ummah the prophets Allah I am no longer
becomes accessible as a as a model he's
literally placed to a degree of
exaltation where he's no longer humanly
accessible to people and that that is
it's tragic and that is in no way when a
rule do we let him initiate our
nourishing denigrating his mom the
prophets allah ism has the highest mom
of the creation and he is the best of
creation fail helping laugh but he still
owes wharton husana
a good example and he meant to be
followed he wasn't meant to be deified
like Issa and SRM and although the
Muslims are handle I have not fallen
into that same trap that the Christians
did nonetheless there's a way of
objectifying the Prophet Sawa's him to a
degree where we no longer see the
humanity of the Prophet we no longer see
the man who sewed his own clothes we no
longer see the man who went in the
marketplace and bought his vegetables
and bought his food for his household we
no longer see the man so Allah and Islam
who prayed amongst his Sahaba we don't
see the man who sat in the circle of his
Sahaba and smiled when they told silly
stories of their jolly days we no longer
see the man who when he sees no hair
walking in the street I want a mayor and
he asked him what what did you do with
the little bird we don't see the man I
mean really we we've lost sense of this
man who walked amongst human beings as a
guide and that's who these men took him
as they took him as a guide and they
exalted him lead to a zero what about
Peru he was sent to to be exalted and
dignified and to be respected to a
degree they we know the Sahaba some of
them used to drink the remains of his Wu
though it's in the Shiva ayaat we know
Baraka drank the the the urine of the
prophets Allah I am without knowing that
it was urine but she drank it and his
urine will spire by consensus of their
own AMA and but she drank it and she
said well I'm a stuck human but Nevada
darica Aveda I never had a stomachache
after that day and so there's they had a
great respect and love for the prophet
sallallaahu said I'm but nonetheless
they took him as an example they took
him as their Imam as their Paragon and
model and this needs to be renewed in
the this Ummah that we need to go back
to the Sunnah of the Prophet SAW Allah I
am and one of the things I would say
about the Islamic education if we're not
training our children to take at the
Sunnah upon themselves and to model
themselves after the Prophet SAW licen
and then our education is a failure in
every aspect we need literally to renew
this Ummah the I had with this Ummah we
need to renew
I had to the messenger of allah and to
the book of allah this is what we have
to do
adenine aussie aha and he said li Manya
Rasul Allah and the Prophet said rakita
be la vara sunnat e rasool' allah well
he a metal muslimeen wa ha Satyam when I
met him
oh I met him now see aha is sincerity to
Allah and to the messenger of allah to
the book of allah to the messenger of
allah and then to the leaders of the
muslims the rightly guided leaders who
established the dean and we struggle and
those also some the water could be
better in what had job even those
leaders who are have strayed from the
right path in everything other than
disobedience to Allah then we support
them because it strengthens the shoka of
the Muslims so the Muslims even did
jihad against bad rulers I mean this is
historical because they understood that
a Muslim of the own map the benefit of
the OMA was greater than any individual
benefits and I just want to I would like
to read very briefly from a man even
jubail who was one of the anima our own
Appa who took a Allah and that was one
of the Sunnah of the rule Amasya higuma
TL jihad my the tourism I mean a modern
word in Arabic see aha but see I used to
mean a spiritual pilgrimage the prophets
Allah said him said the spiritual
pilgrimage of my Ummah is jihad and the
modern word see AHA is tourism and
that's the modern spiritual pilgrimage
of these barbarians is to go and lie on
the beach somewhere they work all year
long and go lie on the beach somewhere
whereas the sea AHA of this Ummah is
jihad struggle feasible Allah and
Maharaja
yep open for feasibility area the one
that goes out seeking knowledge is in
the path of Allah Mujahid in the path of
Allah until he returns home and Allah
says in the Quran about let not all of
you go out I am Pharaoh Khafre all of
you don't go out that a group should
stay behind Lee at the Apollo 15 that
learn the Dean so even the people are
gone and jihad there should always be a
section of the umma that their jihad is
to maintain the Sharia of Allah now if
you look in the OMA we have a crises of
knowledge we have
the anima in this Ummah now can be
counted on the hands and that's not an
exaggeration and and the the people now
who even have are considered anima if
they're honest with themselves they know
that they're they're nothing compared to
the anima of the past they're nothing I
mean one of the great scholars of the
United Arab Emirates Shay Given salic
who's the head of the Paulo in a line
and he has over 30 years of experience
in Allah and his his library is huge
library and I never opened up one of his
books except I found his markings on the
side and he told me he said you know in
previous times we we would be considered
like secondary students
he said they consider us alumina he said
in the old days we would be lucky to get
into a laachraoui yin or into Zaytuna
or into an oz heart and he wasn't being
falsely humbled he was just telling the
truth and so we have to recognize that
we need anima we need people to rise up
to the Mohammed esteem we need people
who understand also but we don't need
automata mood Oh nomads that don't
understand the AIDS they're living in
and now in the Muslim world if you look
at who's studying and a lot of the
Sharia colleges there are people that
they are have difficult time and that is
not everybody and I'm not denigrating
because there's many honorable people
that are attempting to learn Sharia but
many of these people they come out of
backgrounds where they're there the
level of understanding is not the degree
of intellect is not there that we need
to rise to the level of the problems
that are confronting this Ummah and if
you look at the Muslim the the movements
in the Muslim world most of the
movements in the Muslim world are led by
engineers really this is a fact why
because most of the the real powerful
intellects of this oma have gone into
the sciences when in previous times they
would have gone into Sharia and so
unfortunately like saying Omar sifaka
who a brontosaur
be people are sick before you become
leaders because if you don't have faith
at the hub Epona you know they'll just
err by their nature and so the Dean is
based on on substance are also law
profound and our o Sole are not simply
the Oh solids that are not simply
limited to Islam they can be applied to
any corporation could take the whole
soul of Islam and they could apply it
for their own benefit their universal
principles that transcend really even
the religious character of their source
but we need people that understand it
that rise to the level of the Deen and
we need to dedicate of our children in
the traditional Muslim world every
family wanted at least one or two of
their children to enter into Islamic
studies at least but also we have the
Arabic language just learning the Arabic
language in a novel Quran and out of the
land local taka-kun we've put it into
the Arabic language in order to give you
the ability to use your intellect
because Arabic language by its nature
enlarges the intellectual capacity of
the individual and I guarantee that
somebody asked me why should I learn
Arabic I said because it'll increase
your intelligence it will if you learn
the Arabic language it's a deep language
it's a profound language it's the
language Allah chose to give his last
message in now if you look even Jubair
went from her anata now this is he gives
it it's a reg'lar a journey but I just
want to show what he says about Damascus
Damascus the mission which was one of
the greatest cities of scholarship there
were over 70 colleges 70 colleges in
Damascus alone in the city alone there
were over 70 colleges in fest there were
about 30 and I'm talking about not
jamming our university colleges for
higher education of students who had
gone out of the the primary level and
going into serious study of Mattoon and
and and things he says in this venerated
mosque after the morning prayers their
daily assembles a great congregation
Jemma a tune edema of the reading of one
of the seven sections of Quran so every
day in Beni in the message of Benny
Omega they used to recite one seventh of
Quran they would finish it every seven
days
he said it was a big Jumanji American
Alvina a huge group Allah said like a
tomato Coleman V beta mean that the
prophets allah i sent him said lies the
metaphor motivate him in beauty line yet
- Nikita a la huerta Daraa Sunnah in
hospital Manmatha a second necessarily
mr. kena what American oil or vegetable
of the Rama that the Sakina comes down
the Angels will cover them embrace them
and they will get this tranquility and
mercy from Allah will encompass them
Rockman well either Korean Quran says to
me Runa ho 1 C 2 la allakum tohe moon
the Rehema comes with the reading of
Quran but look at the hadith the Prophet
said yet Luna kita Allah way at adhara
Sunnah ho not just reciting it they
study it the Quran is meant to be
studied it is a worldview that's meant
to be imbibed by the individual Muslim
to learn to see things as they truly are
along edenia as Chaka Mejia the Prophet
used to say show me things as they truly
are a llama Iranian hahahaha what was up
in a TV show me truth as it is truth and
give me the ability to follow it well
Iranian ba dee da ba dee da what is
openness Tina ba and show me falsehood
as it truly is falsehood and give me the
ability to avoid it and so he said they
would do this and then he said this is
unfailing in other words this was
something he saw a continuous action and
it is the same after the evening prayers
for the reading of what is called the
cows area this is in 1151 of the
Christian era this is during the time of
the RZA of Islam or rise of the Muslim
means Allah is always Aziz and and his
Deen is always Aziz Islam always has is
that and is the truly lying but the
Muslims there is a is dependent upon
whether they practice the Dean let's say
he know what a 1001 Tamara alone in
kuntum mu'minin'
don't be weak and don't grieve because
you're the superior ones in come to mock
meaning if your people of Eman indium
system
in Indians as compared home for Padma
Salam upon me through if you if you get
afflicted by something know that they
get afflicted by those things too in
other words what afflicts us afflicts
them as well
what city can I am who tell we don't
have been an ass we changed this matter
some tribulation is for you and then for
them but look at the Prophet when they
said about the cut Allah of Yom HUD and
he told amar to shout back to them
no because they said this is for better
your katana alone is for our katana and
better and what did the prophets Allah
lightest and him say no tell them katha
Donovan Jenna what cotton arkinson are
our dead are in Jenna and your dead are
in the Hellfire so we're not the same
we're not the same arm Allah is Allah
and as for those who disbelieve the
Molalla home
they have no mola so he said and when
they read from Surat that Kel thought
until the end of the book to this
assembly of health are come all who do
not well know the Quran by heart and all
such participants receive a daily
allowance they were given a stipend in
the message to maintain this practice
more than 500 persons being able to live
from it so people were paid to recite
the Quran continuously this is one of
the virtues of this venerated Masjid in
which from morn till eve the Quran is
read unceasingly in it lectures are
delivered to students and teachers
receive a liberal stipend the teachers
the unum I used to give a liberal
stipend that means they were given good
amount of money and the ulama used to be
honored and people say well yeah they
won't do it for the face of Allah for
Allah
what if you give them money or something
no Islam is to be encouraged and that's
why traditionally one of them said turn
them to the animal ad la for other a
little more in line y Hakuna Lila when I
began seeking knowledge I did it for
other than Allah because the ulama used
have a big death with the people and he
when he began his journey he began
studying for other than allah
subhanallah tanah but he said true
knowledge refuses to be for other than
Allah subhana WA Ta'ala in other words
he was purified in the process and this
is what happened and you can look at it
now if you look at many doctors or
engineers in the Muslim Ummah now if you
have $100 maybe only 15 of them or 20
are really true doctors in other words
they have a vocation to heal people
other people just doctors because their
parents wanted the doctors because it
has a status but still they benefit
people you can still go to that one you
might not get the same bedside manner
you might not feel as comfortable with
him but he can still benefit the person
because he's learned a knowledge well
traditionally it was the same with the
ulama that they were all sought
knowledge maybe out of a hundred anima
there were only 15 or 20 that were real
people of taqwa and and and these type
of things but despite that even the ones
that weren't benefitted other people in
the prophets Elijah sanam talks about
the ulama who benefit people you feel in
an ass well i interfere own of the enemy
they don't benefit from their knowledge
but other people benefit from them and
the hadith is famous about the animal
yamaha yama people see him going into
the fire and they said Bikaner done'
it was because of you we were saved well
how can you be going to the fire and the
alum says because I didn't benefit from
my knowledge but the Deen is preserved
by ulama by men and women who take it
upon themselves to learn the Deen and
this doesn't mean you know people say
what about the dunya worldly sciences
we're backward now we need we need to
catch up in technology we need to have
more engineers more technicians these
type of things subhanAllah this Intel
this type of understanding has destroyed
this Ummah because first of all we did
not lose the Islamic sovereignty because
of inferior technology and if you think
that you haven't read the book of Allah
subhana wa tada
because no group is ever destroyed
because of inferior technology it's
quite the opposite that that
times Allah causes a small group who's
weaker to have victory over a group
that's bigger and stronger why be easily
laughs because Allah desires to show his
Sunna better al-kubra we celebrate that
day every year why because it's the day
of the truth despite they had inferior
technology they didn't have the weapons
they didn't have these things despite
that fact they had victory why because a
park of the thought like even an out of
me in his camera Quran says a taco to
guitar were intimate owns her own
ability come what I said to have them
are rats in my attic even a lot of me
who was a Mujahid in his own time the
great civilian avi
he said that true strength is in
obedience to Allah subhana WA Ta'ala
and this oma is given victory because of
its weak people we're giving victory
because of weakness in kuntum mu'minin'
not another omaha be better than one to
medina allah gave you victory and better
and you were weak and humiliated in the
earth so we have to understand our way
of viewing things is different but if we
don't have people in the masajid
learning the Book of Allah if we don't
have people of ebody if we don't have
people calling on Allah subhana WA -
Anna if we don't have this training
going on then what good are we what
benefit are we I mean this is not I'm
not making things up study the history
of this Ummah so he says here the
strangest thing then he says that the
Mauna Kea have a Zawiya for study in the
west side because he was from morocco
from Andalusia and he just mentioned
that and there the students from Al
Maghrib who receive a fixed allowance
assemble the conveniences of this
venerated Masjid for strangers and
students are indeed many and wide they
honored the horrible people coming from
now if you're from another country it's
like you're from another planet in the
memo Vanunu era in the hadith Muhammad
okawa in the Hadiya Omar Omar in the
hadith
Motoko mohammed al wahida why not a book
on fat atone this is your OMA is
so have taqwa of Allah subhanAllah to
Anna Allah made us brothers and sisters
he made us brothers and sisters by the
Kalima la ilaha illallah muhammad rasool
allah and all this division for
rectitude and this is part of what the
educational system does inculcate some
people a sense of their Egyptian Asst of
their seriousness of their Pakistan eNOS
of the know we inculcate in our youth a
sense of their Islam that Islam is
paramount and that were one OMA we're a
body and it doesn't say we all have to
become like each other no it honors
cultures Islam honors people's
traditions it honors their cultures the
Sudanese have a beautiful culture you go
and you see things that you don't see in
other places if you go to Egypt then you
eat I'm redeemed for the iftar they
don't have that in Sudan but Sudanese
like it when they go to Egypt for iftar
maybe they have it do they have I'm
gonna dine in Sudan they got it from
Egypt you see so so good things come
from culture you see you go and you know
they like it and they bring it back
Islam just gets rid of the dirt it's
like if you have a big feast and you go
in and in the middle there's a pig and
all around it are good things fruits and
all these things all Islam does is it
takes the pig out it says this is
harmful throws it away but everything
else is cool Allah shareable and that's
what Islam does with culture it comes
into a place and it looks there's good
things in Canadian culture not
everything is bad most thing but not
everything so there are things that
Islam if it came here it would preserve
them it would honor them and it would
say no there's nothing wrong with that
but it would also clarify because it's
for fun you federal banal happy would
happen so what the good things that it
would do it would keep like punctuality
that unfortunate we have to learn from
them and Islam the Prophet SAW lies in
Subhan Allah he waited three days for a
man before Islam in one place he waited
three days that was how strong his word
was and when the man finally showed up
he forgot all about his appointment the
Prophet to all he said it was
honey you know you wear you wore me out
waiting for you so long Madison I mean
the prayer itself teaches us punctuality
not obsessive like clocks people saying
when's he gonna finish here we don't we
don't have to be that punctual so then
he says this is so amazing the strangest
thing to tell of this mosque concerns
the column which stands between the old
and the new max Ora it has a fixed walk
for the benefit of those who lean
against it in meditation and study there
were pillars that somebody donated from
his wealth money to support anyone that
wanted to lean against that pillar and
meditate to oh I mean what kind of
people were that there's something
amazing in fest they have a walk there
to this day that feed stray cats
somebody left a walk that somebody goes
out and feeds the cats the these Muslims
were extraordinary human beings we saw
decided a Fafi from Seville called
Elmo Roddy in the morning at the end of
the assembly for the reading of a 7th
section of the Quran each man leans
against a column while in front of him
sits a boy who instructs him in the
Quran the boys also have a fixed
allowance for their reciting but those
of their fathers who are fluent prohibit
their sons from accepting it they're
teaching them if although the remainder
do so then he says this is one of the
virtues of Islam - Elam infidel and
Islam the walk system where people
donate money for people to study to give
them Etha
and traditionally one of the in the
books of thick in in the book in ham
doon on his hasha of mayara
says that it is not a fault or a blemish
for the paula venom to ask from wealthy
people to support him the wealthy people
should be looking for the love to
support to help them in their studies
and if you look in this kaffir system
they give endowments they
endowments they help people what for
Kufa to increase their power they have
think tanks they have RAND Corporation
Ford Foundation Carnegie Foundation the
Rockefeller Foundation they give huge
amounts of money for people to spend two
years doing nothing but studying so that
they can write a book that ends up in
the in the Pentagon or in the State
Department they let them go and study in
Syria for two years so they can
understand the social system and how it
works they do this for ku phone and
we're supposed to be I said to her belly
laugh we should have more love for Allah
so behind Wattana than these people for
their Tahu and yet we don't see it with
rare exception and then he says here
well then he says for orphan boys there
is in the town a large school with a
generous endowment rock phone from which
the teachers draw enough to sustain
themselves and disembark from it to
support and clothe the children this is
also one of the uncommon things to tell
of the virtues of these lands the
instructions of boys in the Quran and
all these eastern lands consists only of
making them commit to memory writing
they learn through the medium of poetry
and other things the book of the a lotta
Allah is thus kept undefiled from the
markings and rubbings out of the boys
efforts
I mean he's saying in Andalusia they
didn't have this habit but he was
praising equality that they would give
the Quran by telling Shafi'i in order
that the boys wouldn't write the Quran
and then erase it they didn't want to
defile the book with the erasure is so
beautiful and this is tahleen women you
out them shy or loving I'm otaku Kalume
those who exalt the these these
standards of allah subhana wa ta'ala
this is from the taqwa in the hearts of
the people and they had great taqwa and
Colleen for the Book of Allah subhana WA
Ta'ala and this goes on it's it's a very
beautiful it will make you weep when you
read it you weep you know because it's
lost these traditions are gone you know
so I think just in summary
we as people and here in Toronto there's
something that we can do and there's
there's one thing we need to understand
which is important and it keeps the
Muslims and this is something that is
borrowed from a corporate model but I
think it's very valid and what a heck
might old volatile movement there's an
idea of what's called a circle of
concern and a circle of influence the
circle of concern is the greater circle
like our concern is for the whole Ummah
man I offend the amur and meaningfully
Simon home o ammidon muslimeen the one
not concerned about the Muslims isn't
from amongst them so we concern
ourselves with the Muslim but where is
our circle of influence where can we
really have to fear now we can have fear
by making dua for the umma
so the fear extends beyond even what we
have physical or monetary power to
change so we make dua for this Ummah and
the door has an effect but what about
that physical effectiveness that we can
have we have to limit ourselves to our
circles of influence to recognize that
each one of us has a limited data data
to Theia this circle of influence and we
have to benefit by recognizing where it
extends to and then work within that
circle and part of one of the I think
mechanisms of Kufra now in this day and
age is to exhaust all of the Muslim
resources by scattering all of their
work all over to where there's no
emphasis on the local at the local level
and the primary concern of a community
is always at the local level always
zakat in most of the books a fifth is to
be given back to the same community that
it was taken from it's taken from the
rich and it's given to the poor before
it goes into a central collection it
only goes into the central collection
when there's no one to collect zakat at
the local level so there should be a
local concern because if you increase
your local infrastructure then that your
sphere of influence increases when
people see the Muslims successful here
then Toronto becomes a model and I've
heard
- used as a model in other places as a
way of encouraging people to do things
that's not I'm not making that up
I've heard things that are happening
here being used as examples in other
places so if we strengthen our local
communities we need to create
neighborhoods where Muslims can be our
children can be raised as much as
possible in that first model within a
society fixture where they have a sense
of Islam around them so if we create
Muslim neighborhoods where Muslims live
in the houses together buying houses in
the same areas and we literally create
Muslim neighborhoods so that people pray
fudger together they pray Asia together
they have the the women and the children
are in an environment that's conducive
to their Islam and the women have a huge
responsibility they have a huge
responsibility because you can't be
frivolous people you can't let shelf on
just take your intellect steal them away
from you know your your beings endowed
with intelligence and integrity just as
much as the men are Allah subhana WA
Ta'ala has not preferred in these things
the men over the women know there were
great women of scholarship in this Ummah
and if you study the some of the
greatest universities there's a whole
college in Alaska that was donated by a
Muslim woman that still functions to
this day Fatima Fatiha
the great Muslim Walia from fairs who
donated the entire University of the
Caribbean which has produced again and
again allama all over the spread the
message of Islam all over Africa
especially North African Andalusia we
know the foundation of the Sun Cory
University young artists ancora
in Timbuktu was donated by a woman women
had great concerns for education because
it was their children that they were
going to be putting into those
institutions and we have never had a
great and I said this before and I say
it again we have never had a great
Muslim or Muslim at that didn't have a
great mother behind them unless they
were your team and then they had a great
moral Bureau Rabia and you reads mr.
Roop his grandmother who raised him
because he was an orphan she used to
hide food in his house
when he grew up as a little boy and and
he was I'm hungry and she said let's
make dua and ask Allah subhana WA Ta'ala
if there's some that he'll give us some
food
and they would make Dora and then she
said let's look maybe Allah put some in
the house and they would go look
together and then he said they would
find it and he would praise Allah
subhana WA Ta'ala and he would eat the
food and he said I realized when I grew
old and I had my intellect she was
inculcating in me telecon she was
teaching me how to trust in Allah
subhana WA Ta'ala these are the kind of
women that we need that are going to to
raise another generation at Ulmer Madras
and at the tire shop on Eva Libre rappy
the mother is the madrasah she is the
school if you prepare her you've
prepared a deep people of people of
roots of people of substance and if
she's ignored and belittled then you've
ignored and belittled your own oh ma so
this is something we have to be aware of
the women have a great responsibility
and a great challenge in this age and we
need to understand what our a tradition
is and I'm not saying that we have to go
back to to you know the some kind of
madrasah model where there's nothing no
their benefit there are beneficial
things that have happened and occurred
in this time but things need to be put
into perspective and we need to realize
what are our goals the goal of education
has never been economic fulfillment in
Islam because our risk is the armor of
Allah super Hannah were to Anna
one minute akela Maharaja the one who
has suffered a la Allah will give him a
way out well Rosa woman hey Julia says
even he will provide from him from where
he is has no man hey laetus if it means
where he didn't even expect it to come
from so there are people that study for
years to be a doctor and I know a man in
in California he's from a Arab
background he studied for years to be a
doctor he hates medicine and he told me
he just did it because his father want
him to do it now he's a businessman he's
very successful and he's very devout
Muslim so the point is you don't know
where Allah is going to provide you and
the truth is this is an age in which
nobody has any ailment there's no Easter
table anymore and there never was in
reality it's an illusion because like
the Prophet said and mode to October
with a common shyrokyne adikam
that is closer to you than the
the strap on your sandal so no one has
any there's no Eman I'm into Memphis
Somalia and yes it will become an art
you have any security in the earth that
he won't just shake it up so we have no
security our security is without loss
super Hannover to Allah and the moment
is the one that your immune have so home
at Allah he's the one that get his
security he praises it with Allah super
Hannah tanika's Allah is also an muckman
there's a name of Allah and if you're
Mormon be la Allah you're a manuka yo
come in at Valaya or isaiah was sharp so
these all of these things we have to be
really start waking up we're in a deep
sleep and we're in a crisis situation
and our crises is one of knowledge it
always has been it always will be
and I'm not talking about information
I'm talking about deep knowledge that is
transformative by its nature that
changes people that makes them better
people make some people up in Mohammed
and this is where we have to go we have
to create institutions where Muslims can
learn again we need to bring life to our
massages with the Quran with the
remembrance of Allah subhana WA Ta'ala
and this is all within the possibility
of the human being because we're an
extraordinary creature and Allah has
endowed us with extraordinary gifts and
and if we turn to him then Allah gives
us a Maharaj
a way out and really I don't have more
to Sam inshallah tomorrow I'm gonna talk
just about planting seeds in other words
looking for you know what more practical
things that we can do I mean a lot of
this I'm just trying to just give us you
know an alternative perspective that's
based on my own research into classical
Islamic education and also that I had
the benefit of spending a short time in
a traditional method ASSA
so I actually could see because in in in
the Sahara Desert there's still
mattresses that are functioning the way
mattresses functioned a thousand years
ago quite literally that have had no
outside influence and although their
shortcomings to their system what I
noticed is they produce human beings and
this is the great omar bin al-khattab
they were sitting around the Sahaba and
they were making wishes and
them said I wished I had a mountain full
of gold that I could spend feasible ela
and another one said I wish that I had
all of these camels and things that I
could give to the Jews so they can ride
fisa Beulah and they asked what do you
wish for he said I wish I had a room
filled with men like Miranda Benjamin
and Albert Veda and Bilal even Rafa
that's what all my wish for a group of
men because with men you can change the
world you don't change the world with
with dunya you changed the world with
region and the prophets all nice that
have built human beings he didn't build
in fact even Hajj or Alaska Ronnie says
then Yasu role I had Ranade Hodja he
never put a stone upon a stone in his
entire life he planted the the the Kaaba
with that Hodja but he did not build
buildings Medina there's no place to go
and see the great buildings that the
Prophet Elias son left behind he left
behind men and women that transformed
the world that's what he did and that's
what he was concerned with and that's
what the Sahaba were concerned with and
so we should be concerned with
transforming our youth into Rashad and
Nisa of Allah subhana WA Ta'ala and this
is possible to do that I don't think
it's far-fetched so I've just I have a
question here that please talk about
even Hut dunes place in Islamic
education even hard on him oh Allah was
a brilliant scholar he was a Malachy
Holly he was a Mufti as well as being a
historian he memorized the model one at
Cobra which is a huge book in Maliki
he had brilliant intellect his ideas
were literally centuries ahead of his
age including the Muslim the Muslims
weren't ready to hear what he had to say
because he was talking about the decline
because he was witnessing the decline of
the Muslim Ummah and he was explaining
its reasons and it was bitter for people
so his
books were ignored for a long time and
it's interesting enough that it's the
Europeans that picked up his books
I mean Europeans actually kind of
discovered even some dude in a lot of
ways the macadam as an extrordinary book
he does have a section in there which
I've read about education and he
basically just is it's a descriptive the
importance of education and he talks
about the differences between different
locations like for instance in
al-andalus he says they were more
concerned with beautiful penmanship and
the memorization of poetry than they
were with the memorization of Quran and
he explains the reason for that is
because they wanted to create very
eloquent people and they realized that
the Quran is inimitable it cannot be
imitated so so they felt if the the
young boys would memorize a metal case
and Watanabe and and all of these jihad
poets that they would have abilities to
speak in eloquent Arabic and it's it's
worth it's been translated by Rosenthal
it's called the pro l-'azim I think of
in Manhattan and there's a section in
there it's very useful to read and
there's also been a book written on even
a hundred serial education which I've
actually read and I benefited a lot from
some of his ideas any suggestion when a
husband wants the TV in home so he can
watch three to four hours of sports
his only recreation that's not
recreation he's watching recreation but
that's not recreation you see recreation
is when you go out and and do something
that recreates and that's what
recreation means to recreate somebody
who can spend four hours watching sports
in front of the television ought to be
ashamed of himself and that's all I can
say about that they ought to be ashamed
of themselves because time doesn't time
doesn't come back time is lost man I
mean it's your capital and it's it's you
know there's like an hourglass and you
only have so many grains of sand in it
and it's dripping away you know and and
this is something if you read there's a
beautiful book for those who can read
Arabic tomatoes lemon and the ulama by
Abdel Fattah Buddha have a low a lot of
the Syrians
from from Aleppo I think he's Aleppo I
love you
he it's a beautiful book that he wrote
and you know he said walk so I'm calm I
need to be heavily he had a mahaki of
the yellow that's how he begin it with
that line of poetry that time is the
most precious thing that you concerned
yourselves with and it's the easiest
thing that you can lose and we have so
much time so we should utilize our time
and then I'm not saying that the
prophets all I said you know I mean
you're Italian to have a saying
certainly lay he was certainly Leahey
right like give a time a time for Allah
and a time for some entertainment or
something like that
Allah he's one of the names of Shaban as
well if you look it up in the dictionary
there so you have to be careful with
that but the Prophet SAW like I said I'm
said when somebody is going to a wedding
he asked I said did the unsought have
lahu and they said they said was there
loud when he said then I'm sorry you go
home and level they like entertainment
and we know the Prophet Elisha he used
to like to have some entertainment cuz
he liked to show the Jews and the
Christians that he had Fatah in his Deen
that the Dinah's are not all rigidity
and not all but our level should be
beneficial it shouldn't be wasted time
because even in Lihue there's benefit
and that's why the prophet sal i said
i'm said that a man practicing his
arrows is level but it's good and
archery is a beautiful sport it teaches
you a lot of things and the most primary
thing that it teaches you which is why
we should teach our children it that if
you miss the air the the the mark the
marma what they call the marma the
bullseye don't blame it on the bullseye
it's the false in the Rami you see so if
we're missing our mark in art in the
dunya don't blame it on the dunya blame
it on the one who's shooting you see and
that's what archery teaches you that
it's you determine where the arrow lands
and then you teach your children sabaha
what Okubo hey on roku bill hail is an
important thing because hail in the
arabic language from who yella which is
pride who yella is pride and the horse
is a proud animal a hail they say that
you know the bun Allah is is the made
from
a male donkey and a female horse and
they say if the female horse looks
behind her and seized the the donkey
mounting her she died instantaneously
out of shame and that's why they don't
look when they're mounted they think
it's a horse there so the the hail is a
proud animal and if you teach rokubu
hail is you learn you teach the child
cxeh how to control the nafs
because the nafs is proud and arrogant
and so you learn how to control the nos
through CSS through Ted beer and through
roku tar cap nav circulate are kabocha
you ride your nuts but don't let your
enough to ride you and then sabaha we
subhanAllah the the supplies from the
same route sabaha is swimming and those
people who are in a state of motion
their Subban is because they're
witnessing the meaning of allah subhana
wa ta'ala they're witnessing the high
yumiya of allah swimming is a beautiful
metaphor for being immersed in in this
unifying element because water is a
unified element unlike the this the the
dry land dryness is separation water is
gathered Ness so teaching children how
to swim is teaching them how to immerse
themselves in gathered nurse as as
opposed to being constantly in
separation and that's why the in the
Hajj Slidell Bihar is permissible but
say that butter is not permissible and
there's wonderful meanings in that so
throw out the TVs that's my advice you
know and I'm going to talk about that
tomorrow about TVs because TVs are we
have to stop because it's the so they're
gonna kick us out of the hall so Hyundai
like yeah I'm Dana see I told you the
Canadians have some good qualities
it's not like the four months ago
I'll ask him to conclude it with a door
inshallah there's just there there's
just a few announcements inshallah that
I'll ask one brother to come up and give
and then I'll just talk about tomorrow
so saying if you would just come up make
a few announcements from the table or
from the podium this one and then we'll
conclude and once again Jews a qualifier
for coming we ask Allah subhana WA
Ta'ala to bless this event to bless
amount comes those words and we ask that
the examples in the message you gave to
us tonight enter our hearts and manifest
themselves and our deeds in sha allah
subhanaka llama will be hum the
