Brotherhood in Islam lecture by Khalid Yasin

mmm hamdullah salatu was-salam ala rasulillah sallallahu wasallam vada le he was Harvey Oswald even wanna guava fanastic al-hadith we terrible lava haidle had had you Muhammad in some more money he was Alan Michelle Moore never to have economy and effort in V da da da ba da da da da cunha dollars in Finland are a human equity ROM Salam alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuhu our brothers my discussion with you today is a informal advice and the advice which I'm offering to you is offered to you on the basis of the well known hadith of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam what he said Idina not see her that that the religion is advice and conformance and when he was asked by his companions advice and conformance to whom he said Lilla radhika java he mother rasool e he what he emitted muslimeen why I am netting him that the advice in the conformance to Allah subhana WA Ta'ala to the Book of Allah subhana WA Ta'ala to the Sunna of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam to the leaders of the Muslims and to the generality of the Muslim people so we know that in the lease we have an obligation to each other to advise each other on the basis of what allah subhanho wa taala has ordered us and to advise one another from the book of allah subhana WA Ta'ala to advise one another towards one of the prophets of allah wa sallim to advise one another to obey and to conform to the leadership of the muslims and to advise one another in general as brothers and this advice which I'm offering to you is consistent in Shaba to Allah with this characteristic I would like to to title or to characterize my advice to you today as the duties of Brotherhood and the duties of Brotherhood they are many and I cannot expect in this setting to cover all the duties that we have towards knowing each other as brothers but I would like to use as a basis for my advice to you some of the hadith from The Alibi in a hadith of mmm no away Rahim will law and I just like to say a little bit about this collection of mm no away I advise all the Muslim brothers especially the the emerging Muslims those who are coming back to themselves those who are coming back to the Dean those who are returning back to their Islamic consciousness those who have children and those who themselves they at least want to begin their journey in knowledge upon something which is sound I advise all the brothers to share it with their wives and their children and themselves to at least minimally read from The Alibi in a hadith as a basis to familiarize yourself with the the body of a hadith read from them become familiar with them and inevitably try to memorize them why because this particular collection has been compiled by mm no away in a specific way to breathe and to cover a number of subjects using only for the hadith he has selected some of the pearls of the sayings of the Prophet so a lot of us to them to cover as it were an ocean of knowledge was very difficult to do to cover an ocean of knowledge with just a small amount of just a small book like this and in fact many of the scholars said that a volume volumes can be written just on each hadith themselves just each one of these Hadees of volume can be written and has been so I would like to use for different Hadees from the prophets a lot of Islam from this collection as a basis for my advice to you and my advice to myself in my estimation and moving around the Muslim world and in examining the Muslim body and might be in a part of the body I think that one of the most serious deficiencies that we have is how we deal with each other and in every lecture every lecture I do all over the world there's always groups of brothers who want to talk about Khilafah about the Islamic state about the kuffar about what should we do about the enemies of Allah whether we should go for jihad all of these are legitimate questions and no one should trivialize them we should not treat these brothers as if they are foolish as if they are agents provocateur or something like that no we should treat them with seriousness because the questions are coming from a serious concern but the problem always for me is how do brothers want to establish something as great as Islamic state something as ambitious and how they want to elect our point and look for somebody to be the leader of the Muslims one day themselves they are not practicing the duties of brotherhood they're not behaving as Muslims we are not behaving as Muslims we are not doing the simple duties inside of our families as fathers as brothers as husbands as neighbors we are not doing the simple things so if we're not doing the simple things how do we expect to accomplish the bigger things if someone is not able to understand simple mathematics like 9 times 9 is 81 how are they going to do logarithms how are they going to do geography I mean how they're going to do geometry how are they going to do calculus how they're going to construct a building that calls for them to do sophisticated mathematics but they don't know 9 times 9 is 81 they know don't know how to divide one figure into another we would advise them that what they want to do is ambitious and good but we should return back to the simple issue and covered recovers do those simple issues and then build ourselves from that simple issue until we get to the more difficult ones and so in this setting I want to share with the brothers and also just advise myself again and keep this in mind brothers I'm a new Muslim imma imma older Muslim I've been Muslim for 1965 we say now 37 years trying to be a good Muslim trying to be a decent Muslim trying to maintain my Islamic consciousness but still a new Muslim because my father mother sisters brothers uncles aunts relatives and other family members they are not Muslims so I'm the first generation Muslim among my family according to the the category of Muslim Majid we Muslims who fall into that category that's who we are so certainly I don't have the ability to go deeply into this issue but as it has affected me as it has as I have seen it among the Muslims and as I see it here and as I have been advised I would do my best and try to deal with this subject and now try to deal with it in a way that even these young boys here who are nine years old eight years old they should be able to appreciate it and understand it inshallah I like to start first with a Hadees and this is a fairly long hadith I know be here already Allah on universal illallah wa sallam Paul Manafort our movement Coubertin min corabeth dunya nafis allahu anhu Carrabba 10 min horrible yeomen Toyama mama yes sir a la mora sir yes sir Allahu alayhi wa dunya will every woman satara Muslim and satoru cetera who lahu wa dunya will akhirah voila

knows Wabble Wabble Muslim we had a llama on the authority of a parade or the lon that the Prophet sallallahu wasallam said whoever removes a worldly grief from a believer allah subhanho wa taala will removed from him or her one of the griefs of the Day of Judgment and whomsoever alleviates the condition of a needy person Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala will alleviate his condition and his needs in this world and the next whomsoever shields a Muslim Allah subhana WA Ta'ala will shield him in this world and the next and a loss of Hanna WA Ta'ala will aid a servant of his so long as the servant aid his brother and whomsoever follows a path to seek knowledge there in a loss of vanuatu Allah will make easy for him a path towards paradise and no people gather together in one of the houses of Allah subhana WA Ta'ala reciting the book of Allah and studying it among themselves without tranquillity descending on them and mercy enveloping them the angels surrounding them and Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala making mention of them among those who are with him whomsoever is slowed down by his actions will not be hastened forward because of his lineage it was related by Muslim Imam Muslim in these words we see here among the duties of Brotherhood the prophets of Allah loves them mentions whoever removes the worldly grief from a believer so one of the conditions that we have towards each other is to look for anything which is uncomfortable we should ask our brother when we meet him look in his face study him and ask him carefully Kathy how do you feel lucky your condition how's your family how's your health are you working you need anything but sincerity suppose every time we met a Muslim he asked us five or six questions like that keV had exactly how are you how's your family how's your health how's your home you need anything actually you okay brother hum do laugh if you need anything let me know the brother who asked you that every time you meet him what do you think about him if there's something that you need something happens in the course of a day and you don't know who to call or who to ask if you meet that brother you will say you will say to him actually I don't want to ask anything I don't like to but actually inshallah this is my situation but why because you don't feel the shame to him because every time you medium he's asking you a key if you need something don't ask anybody called me this is one of the duties that we have towards each other to look in the face of each other because the prophets allows them said a believer is what to his brother he's the mirror when you look in the face of your brother you know his situation because you know your own situation and we should come to know each other well enough that our brother doesn't have to ask us for what he needs we already know we can tell by his disposition we can tell by his demeanor we can tell by his voice we know because his wife may be mentioned to my wife we know because his children play with my children we know his situation and so we don't embarrass him and we don't wait for him to have to ask us we offered the need for our brother this is one of the duties that we have to control to protect the mastery of Allah Allah Allah I am also mentioned whoever alleviates the condition of a needy person Allah will alleviate his condition in this world and the next to remain to remove a Muslim brother or sister from a calamity a situation they are in whether its dead something physical something psychological or stress they under a pressure they are under to come to their rescue and to do so in a way that no one knows their situation and that you came to help them accept you and that you keep this a secret this is one the duties of Brotherhood the prophets allows them said whomsoever she owes a Muslim satella SATA he said so awesome woman subtle a Muslim man to protect the Muslim what is to protect the Muslim it means to protect him from any shame not to allow anyone to see the fault or the shame of your brother so if a Muslim he does something which he himself is ashamed of what I should do cover that for my brother and maybe I come up to him and say actually Japan Allah you know okay a lot is the best no we are brothers and shall I just want to mention something to you and okay you should try to take care of this issue and maybe you are the only one who knows you're the only one who saw it but you don't reveal it to other people but you come to your brother and you speak to them about that and then after that you hold this secret and if there's anybody to speak to about it you speak to him about it or someone comes to you and mentions to you something about the brother and you say okay I don't know that about him even though it may be you know it you say okay I don't know that about the brother I only know good about the brother but inshallah he I think maybe maybe you and I we should go to the brother and speak to the brother so what are you doing in that case you're forcing this person who came to you with that information to confront that brother himself in your presence so it doesn't go further first thing you did is you try to suppress that issue say no I don't I don't know that about the brother so you are pulling the best construction on it you are protecting the brother's honor you are protecting that brother's reputation and the second thing you are sealing the situation before it goes somebody else do they say actually why we don't go and speak to the brother ourselves together the other thing is to shielded Muslim brother also is to protect him from some harm if you know that there is some harm may come to that brother you can protect him in different ways you can warn him or if he doesn't know about it you don't have the chance to warn him you can simply protect him by vouching for him suppose someone came to you and you the only witness of action that a brother he did and you asked did you see that do you know that weren't you a witness to that action you can say in that case okay I don't I'm not sure of what I saw okay I don't want to be a witness to anything because I'm not certain about that inshallah may Allah help the brother maybe you're the only witness that can come forward to indict that situation you have the right I will protect you for that brother and Allah knows best there is some difference of opinion about this how serious the issue is and how many people it involves and what kind of transgression that it might have been the issue is to protect the honor of the Muslim protect the reputation of the brother protect the person of the brother the prophets allows them said Allah will shield him in this world the next who shields and protects his brother so we know that protection and shielding the faults of a Muslim and any harm come into a Muslim is one of the duties of Brotherhood he said solo Allah WA Salam Allah will aid a servant of his allah subhana wa ta'ala will help a servant as long as the servant does what he helps his brother helping helping a Muslim brother it means even if you made him a system in something very simple the brother he's carrying some bags and you aid him with those bags you just can't help to carry him you do anything small to assist your Muslim brother this itself is a big thing in the sight of allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala aiding our brother if we find our brother is under our situation i'm not able to relieve him as maybe he asked me I said to Marquis ok inshallah I will do my best hockey to see if I can find help for you so I may have better connections than that brother he has I may go to 10 Muslims and say actually listen there's a brother one of our brothers he is in need of such and such situation and I've taken it upon myself to try to assist that brother ok oke can each one of you brothers and shall I give to me 10 pounds for that brother if you trust me and Charlotte can you give me 10 pounds for that brother they say who is the brother actually please I don't want to embarrass that brother in sha Allah that he has a need can each one of you on the basis of my relationship with you can you give me 10 pounds can we give you $10 $20 and so I can give it to that brother this is a very big thing because maybe that brother he doesn't have those connections maybe he doesn't have the reputation maybe he doesn't have the relationship he would never get this help so who we will go to help for he will go to the Salvation Army he will go to the church he will go to the welfare shame on us brothers you understand me that we force our brother or sister to go to the welfare to go to the Salvation Army to go to the church to get the assistance that he should or she should get from the Muslims then the prophet sallallaahu Islam he follows this issues of the some of the duties subhanAllah in the same hadith he speaks about whosoever follows the path whoever takes a path seeking knowledge therein as we are doing today masha'Allah whoever takes a path seeking knowledge there and that is he has Denia for it he makes his determination to come to the Masjid or to come to some place to perform the salah and he knows or she knows that after the Salah or before there will be some valve there will be some discussion and they want to listen to it for what intent to increase their knowledge and even if they cannot maybe understand maybe the nature of the lecture will be too sophisticated for them just they want to sit in that circle and be with people who are pursuing knowledge be with the students of knowledge to sit as they are sitting to sit next to them to be in their company just to feel after one leaves that I was in this kind of company of people and understood some words the companions of the prophet saw a lot of us and was like that they came from many places and they sat for long times to hear from the prophets a lot of them to see him and after The Messenger of Allah Salah some people came just to sit with companions of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam and after that people came just because they knew someone was at abia they Kim and said someone was tablet at the tablet someone was known to be a scholar someone was a student of a not of knowledge who sat with some scholars someone was a student of a student and people travelled long distances and we find in the Muslim world that where knowledge is rare where knowledge is scant where knowledge is not available where books are not available maybe in a village there are very few books and maybe only one student of knowledge you see the people in that village they have more appreciation for the knowledge than the people who have many many books in their houses so the prophets Allah Sam said whoever follows the path to seek knowledge therein through doing so allah subhana wa ta'ala will make easy for them the path towards paradise subhanAllah one of the ways that allah subhana wa ta'ala makes easy for the the person who seeks knowledge is because was knowledge what sin today they have knowledge of the holiday halal and haram isn't it when you have knowledge you have knowledge of the Highlander Haram when a mountain person is ignorant he doesn't know the Halal he don't know the Haram so often what is he doing he's mixing halal and Haram so he's doing what he is causing problems for himself and his family even on the road towards paradise he is cluttering the road towards paradise because of ignorance but when a person has knowledge he can ask a question as some time to a question he can relieve himself or herself from cluttering the road toward paradise cluttering the road towards paradise is the causing of sins mistakes violations ignorance so by seeking knowledge allah subhana wa ta'ala will make easy for us to road towards paradise and listen to what the Prophet salah salem said no people gather together in one of the houses of allah subhana wa ta'ala this could be a Masjid this could be a masala this could be one of our houses but we are gathering for what reason we are gathering to listen to the Quran we are gathering to listen to the words of the Prophet sallallahu wasallam reciting the book of allah subhana wa ta'ala and studying it among themselves without Sakina a special tranquility allah subhana wa ta'ala reserves for those whom he loves Sakina coming on them a feeling Sakina relieving them of stress giving him a feeling of safety uplifting them inspiring them enveloping them making them feel love amongst each other and one can know the feeling of sitting in a circle of knowledgeable people of pious people feeling the Quran here in the Quran explained him in the life of the Prophet saws and explained and when you leave from such a setting how you feel you feel gifted you feel light you feel high you feel inspired and only maybe you sat for 10 minutes half an hour because this is the Sakina allah subhana wa ta'ala he sends down on this kind of group he said also not only does he send Sakina down on them but that mercy the rama of allah subhanaw taala envelops them and the melodica whom allah subhanaw taala appoints to look for these kind of gatherings those melodica they find those gatherings and they sit among them and surround them and Allah subhana WA Ta'ala will make mention of them in a gathering where there are more Malaika and the prophet salallahu alaihe salam says whoever is slowed down by his actions will not move forward because of their lineage so someone may say my father is a Muslim my grandfather's a Muslim and I have 10 20 generations of Muslims but you're acting as a Kathryn you're living as a kafir and you're eating from the Haram and you are wearing from the Haram and you act your behavior is acted so what does it matter what does it matter whom your mother and your father was and where you were born that you are Arab or that you are Asian or whomsoever you are or your family what does it matter let me give you an example I met a brother in Saudi Arabia his father was the Imam of a Masjid young brother and every time I met him he's asking me about America hey kid what about American how's the life in America brother subhanallahi can you help me to get to America shall I my father he's gonna let me come to America and shall Allah tell me about what can I do and what so and so and I noticed that his concern wasn't that up that Dawa he was already in love with America It was as if he was talking about a woman he wants to marry and before I left his father said to me my son he's coming to America to to register in some school or to visit some people in shallow college Shefali please when he comes please take care of him I told insha Allah Sheikh I'll do that subhanAllah when the brother was put on the plane and his father gave me the plane I went to the airport to meet him when I got to the airport he was not there he was not there he was on the plane but somebody else came and met him before I did some other side woody brothers some other Saudi brothers who was already in America who like him was already in love with America and who had already been penetrated and it already been polluted and have already been affected they met him the next time I got there brother got in touch with me subhanAllah the brother was in a hotel lost his money then subhanAllah you cannot imagine what happened to him only two hours after he got off the plane his friends met him took him to a hotel room with a some naked woman dancing in this net so and so they put something in his drink the woman or whatever and drugged him and he did all kinds of acts some which he remembered he didn't some he didn't after that his friends they left because because he could he cried after what happened he cried they laughed at him and they left him and masha'Allah when that brother when I found him and went to the place where he was the brother he was so ashamed and he was so destroyed he didn't know what to do the only thing he asked me is please don't tell my father I said brother look my advice for you get back on the plane go back to Saudi Arabia he make Talbot to allah subhanahu wa'ta'ala a key and now think about this experience this experience you saw America now you met America huh go back actually make Talbot to Allah subhana WA Ta'ala and now think about what you want to do with your life ok your father is the Imam of Masjid one very respected man ok you are his son and you were raised in the Masjid luckily this brother he is holding half of the Quran by memory but what did his lineage do for him who his father was what did it do for him if we slow down by our actions by our behavior will not be moved forward because of our lineage and some people they think that they are protected in some kind of way simply because who their fathers are who their family is where they came from this is not the case so in conclusion on this hadith 1 the duties of brotherhood to console to protect to relieve to shield to assist and to support to avoid envy and exploitation to avoid and along with our brother to advise one another to seek knowledge whenever there is some gathering for knowledge call up a brother call up two or three brothers Sam Malik Marquis inshallah the Sheikh is going to be given some classes after fajar every morning one of the things I suggest to the brothers is every brother do his own database take the names of 20 or 30 or 40 different brothers take their names collect him over a period of time and do a set apart at the time of Fletcher all the brothers have cell phones mobile phones right all the brothers have home phones so at the time of Roger you bear the cost of calling 10 brothers every morning Colton brothers don't wait for him to answer the phone tell them I feel inshallah there will be you'll get the fetcher call the fletcher call is one two or three rings that's it one two or three rings is every ring three times hang up the brother he knows this was the fire call maybe this fire call will cause that brother to know that some brothers are concerned about him and he will come to the Masjid masha'Allah after some time he doesn't need to get the fire call he will make the first call we found that using this year we did this in Brooklyn we found that using this in a matter of 30 days we increased the federal prayer from 15 brothers to more than 40 brothers because just to help some time a brother he needs to get that call in the morning the alarm clock he ignored it or he didn't set it or he went to sleep without the intention firm intention in his heart or he's not in accustomed to making the fight getting up for Fajr prayer whatever the situation is sometimes we need to help so the brothers in Charlotte Allah we can say a key inshaallah is you should come to the friday prayer because afterwards a key this was also adults so if that brother comes to the friday prayers also does what really benefit to things you'll get the 27 rewards for praying in German you'll get the benefit of praying to fight your prayer which the prophecy I mentioned in a good hadith about you know when one of you goes to sleep how Shaitaan he three nights behind the ears and it huh and he blows on those nuts all night telling you sleep the night is very long relax it's a kind of law and so the process allows them said when one of you wakes up and says so Hannah law one knot is removed and when you go to perform who though put the water on yourself another knot is removed and when you pray the prayer the third knot is removed in Chevron he has no power over you that day and a good smell comes from your body and for those people who sleep Shaitaan urinates in their ear and when they wake up they are disoriented Shaitaan has power over them that day and they have a bad smell from their body so Subhan Allah will get the reward if that brother he gets up he comes to the fajr prayer will give will share in that reward second thing what knowledge he benefits from that helps in changes or effects his heart we will also share in this benefit also another hadith on brotherhood of the prop from the prophets Allah leaves them again on the authority of abu huraira at the law and you know brothers Abbeville raela but the ilaha and in the Sheikh he can correct me I thought I thought that Abu Huraira what they allow and because of so many ayah DS he had memorized and related I thought that he was with the message of allah sallallahu wasallam I assumed he was with the message of Allah so simple a very long time but in reading through the serie and asking I think the time he was with the prophets Allah symbols how many two years or three years huh two or three years Han Allah it's unimaginable that more hadees are attributed to abu huraira than any other companions of the prophet salaallah wasn't that he was only with the prophets awesome for maybe two and a half years only it's a panel law because he came to the professor was him one day and he complained of his memory that he was weak in his mind he could not hold in his mind anything the prophecy awesome said and he had desired to do so The Messenger of Allah allows them took from him a cloak which either he was wearing or the Prophet SAW was wearing and The Messenger of Allah selasa spread it on the ground and passed his hands over it and said some words give it back to him and Abu Huraira said wallahi after that day I never forgot any single word from the prophets Allah never said this was a gift of prophecy awesome gave to him a gift that is very clear and manifest on the authority of abu huraira dalaran and abu huraira ready allah allah allah allah allah allah allah wa salim lotta ha sido wallet energy su voila vivo monitor deborah voila day I become holiday a bound mucuna a bad day the law f1 on muslim muslim la la whoo voila voila voila guru attack wa-ha-hoo 'no y Oshiro allegedly he Allah Murad he has the husband marry the husband marine minister and Kira AHA Muslim cool no Muslims and Muslim Haram them who were men who were elder who robbed a Muslim here The Messenger of Allah Allah some said on the authority of abu huraira yellow wine do not envy one another do not have hazard for one another don't look to what the out brother has and desire what he has another hadith also in the Albania hadith of mmm I'm a man estimation of a loss of us Oh professor Lawson tell me what I can do that a lot that I can do that if I do it Allah will love me and the people will love me with the profits awesome tell him give up your desire give up your inclination towards what other people own and the people will love you and give up your attachment to the dunya or your preoccupation of it and Allah will love you and you know it is psychologically this is the case when you meet a rich person a powerful person if you comment to him about his nice house oh I think you know your house is nicer him subhanAllah you know you have a nice dis Oaxaca Subhan Allah your car is nice or case the panel ah man you had a nice wife ok ok you know after panel lucky you your children aqui he doesn't want you around him he doesn't want you around him because he knows that you'll put the evil eye on him you already desire in what he has and these kinds of people they don't want you around him but the people who are around rich people like that who don't care anything about them whatever they got they don't care about their wealth they don't care what other people think about them who they are they treat them just like another guy until a man goes sit down and be quiet man I have experienced this year which movie stars are sports figures people in the in the in the media big big shots we call them if you don't pay them any attention you just treat them like another person they like you but if you chase after them and give them some feeling of what they have is valuable they make you chase them even more here's the Messenger of Allah so awesome give us a piece of wisdom don't have envy for our brother don't have hazard if you look to your brother's child he has a beautiful child you compliment him was the dua that wouldn't we see something when somebody complements something that you have was to do I mr. Joshua huh Jabbar Alcala always say Tabarrok Allah and remove and protect yourself from the evil eye because envy happens innocently it's a natural desire to see something that is nice that you like it and to want it and not to necessarily war to take it from the brother but to want to have it since he has it the prophecy awesome said don't have hazard for your brother don't have envy also the Prophet saws them because Envy leaves to exploitation it leads to jealousy envy jealousy exploitation you must have a loss the loss em said do not inflate prices on one another that mean don't exploit each other don't take advantage of each other don't take advantage of a situation where there's a drought so there's no water so normally maybe the price of a liter of water maybe it's uh it's one dollar but there's a drought it happens and there's no water available so now the managers okay it's five versus five pounds it's five to five dollars now don't inflate prices on each other and don't go next to your Muslim brother he's selling something and because you want to enter that market you sit next to your Muslim brother and you undercut him now you go into the marketplace and you see what the basic prices are in the market and you enter the market with respecting with dignity you don't undercut the people but you put your goods out and you see what the prices are and you fix your prices similar to the prices in the market place and there is some rule in Islam about this year and you have the faith you have the faith in the yaqeen inside of yourself that whatever Allah wants to bring to you your customers will come to you you don't have to undercut and the professor Lawson even mentioned this about the marriage it's Haram for a Muslim brother to seek the hand of a woman in marriage when he knows that his Muslim brother he makes the intent for her even though maybe you got the connection you heard maybe this is that she likes you you heard she liked you she asked about you through somebody but you heard your brother he asked about her so you stay away this is the manner this is the duties that we have for each other the prophets wasallam said none of you truly believes until you love for your Muslim brother what what you love for yourself and Imam Ghazali rahim allah he said that in his discussion on this particular hadith in allah he knows best he said that this is the lowest form of the the Brotherhood to love for your brother would you love for yourself is the lowest form actually the highest forms to do what is to want for your brother better than what you have for yourself as was demonstrated by the companions of the prophet salaallah some when they entered madina munawwara what did they do one of the complains of the prophets illallah wa sallam and i cannot remember the name of the companion they were put in twos one Mahajan and one Ansari he took his brother to the marketplace and he told him brother you can take half of my I'm sorry he took him to his house brother you you you take you share with me in my house and you share with me my property and that case the panel I have two wives and that can you take the one what you like subhanAllah you and I we will not do that and if we did that will give him maybe the older wife you see or the one is not so beautiful it's natural to give to our brother if I have a hope I give him a thought maybe I had that toll but and I got a new foul and I'm not going to give it to brother so the highest form of faith and in the sign of Brotherhood is to want for your brother not just what you want for yourself for something more than that to offer to your brother and that saw that that that mahadji that Sahabi he said no actually inshallah may Allah rewards you are he please show me to the marketplace insha'Allah and just show me to the marketplace I will earn my money in sha Allah you see so brothers here the prophets Allah loves them is saying do not hate one another if a brother does something to you what you don't like don't carry that on his head for the next few months you avoid him you speak bad to others about him you can't complain to the Imam about him you complain to other brothers about what that brother he did he spoke to you rough oh he spoke to you he insulted you he did this he did that because what happens is this feeling that's inside of your heart against that brother Shaitaan he will play on that and he will increase it before you know it let you just dislike that brother you begin to hate that brother and that hatred will lead to enmity and before you know it you'll see him as you see him as an opponent so when he needs help you will leave him you'll refuse him and if you feel that way about him you will send a signal to him and how he will feel about you so the mystery of a loss allows him tolas do not hate each other and do not turn away from one another The Messenger of Allah Salah cm told us it's halal for two to two Muslims to avoid each other for how long for three days only isn't it after three days the one who comes back to the other is the better one sadly subhanallahi I don't know what happened at him please come to my house for dinner and I shall lucky because he has to come he come to my house for dinner come to my house for lunch I don't know what's happening here in he I love you for the sake of allah subhanho wa taala Shaitaan that he came and I've clean a shower I was been thinking about this a clean shot please exit and he please you accept this gift from me and inshallah for you or also from from my wife - your wife at he and please forgive me maybe he was the one maybe the brother was the one that insulted you maybe he's the one that create the situation maybe you had the right he was in the wrong it's a pound life you can override that and go back to him and see if you can resolve this it is a tremendous accomplishment because you have defeated the Shaitaan the prophets of laws him said do not undercut one another but vu o servants of Allah brothers brothers the Muslim is the brother of a Muslim the kafir is not the brother of a Muslim he's not the friend of a Muslim you know we go to school with kafirs we work with cafes we live around campus and we say that's my friend and you know I got a friend he's a non-muslim subhanAllah how you got a friend is a non-muslim the non-muslims are not our friends you have an associate that's a non-muslim he's a decent guy he like to be with you you guys joke together you sit together you eat together but he's never your friend your friends another none other than whom Allah and His Messenger so a lot of same and the believers so we have to value our Brotherhood because if you don't have your brother who you have if you're not with your brother who will you be with you'll be with someone other than your brother and if you're some with someone other than your brother you were some kafirs and you may think at one moment that the kafirs they have some respect for you they have some concern for you they have some some loyalty to you but you will find in a given situation they have no concern and no respect and no loyalty for you at all but your brother if you repair the situation if you cultivate the situation your brother will maintain loyalty with you he would maintain an honor with you he will assist you that he would be with you but it was something that we have to cultivate the messenger of allah salah Sam said a Muslim brother neither oppresses him nor does he fail him we don't oppress the brother we don't take advantage of the brother we don't intimidate the brother we don't cause any fright in the brother even we don't have a right to intimidate a brother if I'm strong and a brother he's weak I don't have the right to cause intimidation in him even we should not say to each other we didn't you know we're behind a wall and I'm standing behind the wall and the brother he can say boo mr. pan Allah knows we cannot do that this is a violation of the Brotherhood which we don't have the right to cause this kind of even let's play the joke the Messenger of Allah Salih Muslim he made Brotherhood very sacred very important it's the whole basis of the Muslim society Brotherhood and when there's no Brotherhood believe it there is no substance among the Muslims no substance the Muslim brother doesn't oppress his brother he doesn't fail him if he makes a promise to him he keeps the promise and if he fails to keep that promise he apologizes and he tries to make up for it he's there if his brother leans on him he's there he receives him he got it's like in the street you said I got your back when your Muslim brothers say I got your back that means he's got it he's there you can depend upon that this is a kind of Brotherhood that we're looking for the prophecy awesome said he doesn't lie to him if you ask your brother a question and he answers you you know that you can take that to the bank you know it's true he's not going to lie to you and he never holds him in contempt The Messenger of Allah saw Salim said a taqwa Haruna where's depois tuck was inside the heart you cannot on one hand have piety fear of allah subhana wa ta'ala and also have a hatred for muslims you cannot the to plate to things can I sit in the heart the same place the man who fears Allah subhana WA Ta'ala thinks about a loss of Hanwha to Allah words from Allah subhana WA Ta'ala as from Allah subhana WA Ta'ala please towards Allah subhana WA Ta'ala for forgiveness for mercy for strength for guidance the man who has this kind of feeling inside his heart is what muttaqi he cannot have hatred for his Muslim brother at the same time the festival also seems at taqwa Hakuna and he pointed to his chest what three times to emphasize this issue and he said it is evil enough meaning that it's enough evidence that there is evil in a Muslim to have what contempt for another Muslim because contempt contempt doesn't happen overnight when you develop contempt for a Muslim brother hatred for a Muslim brother you it has cultivated the seed was planted and you also cultivated it and allowed it to be cultivated so it's an evidence that there's evil in you for you to have allowed this this enmity for your brother to cultivate somewhat to the profits awesome end words in this hadith he says : the Muslim Haram here Haram means what inviolable sacred them who were mellow whoo whoo whoo damn Moo his blood his life Malibu his property whatever he has what aroldo his honor his reputation his family if all of us inshallah to Allah we are keeping this allah subhanaw taala will help us to preserve the issues of brotherhood and just another short hadith on this to speak a little bit more on this on this issue the messenger of allah allah allah verse then he said uh nabi muhammad abdullah even armor of the allah one if now's not the allow and humor paul paul rasool ullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam now you mean o hadouken had a of hawaii father and limit dare to be on the authority of abu mohammed abdullah the son of amram ass but their love and humor may allah be pleased with both of them who said the messenger of allah so allah wa sallam said none of you truly believes until his inclination is in accordance with what i have brought his inclination not even that just two actions just two inclination none of you truly believes until his idea his impulses his opinion his feelings his inclination what he's inclined to do is in accordance with what I have brought what is it that he brought so low allah wa sallam and according to the Koran and according to the Sunnah so what does it mean it means that when I think of something when I feel something when I'm inclined to do something when I have some opinion the first thing I should try to do is to do it find out what is the proof of this issue find out what is the proof then when I find out what is the proof and climb myself towards that because if I don't let me we're not Muslims we're not if we're not true believers we're Muslims in our name we Muslims in our tongue but Muslims and as people see us but would not have arrived at at at faith brothers in in in conclusion I want to remind you and remind myself that the dude is a brotherhood are the most important duties because without the dude is a brotherhood we can never build a society you have a family I have a family you have your life I have my life but the only thing that we're buying our families together and bind our lives together is the duties of brotherhood Allah Subhanahu WA Ta'ala says in the monona elgible a minister challenging in men you know what equi first little brain-attic awake Oh so make slowly make a slash reconcile between the brothers make peace and on your multi Amma one of the higher stations will be reserved but for the people who used to commit themselves dedicate themselves for making peace between Muslims it's a Muslim Brotherhood you know subhanAllah when you come in a gathering of Muslims a gathering a large gathering of Muslims see how they treat each other really see see how they treat the elderly see how the youth treat the elderly and see how the elderly treat the youth see how they offer each other the best spots to sit see how they are when they're entering through doorways see how they are when they meet and pass each other see how the Companions of the Prophet saws on how they was when they're just they separated each other by just a wall what did they do they give Salam to each other again always Sam Malik makhachev holic hamdullah Masha Allah Subhan Allah you know the the the the Sudan II brothers masha'Allah and I mentioned them because it's a habit of this when they meet each other maybe the brother he can devote to this when the Sudan Lee brothers meet each other this is a good habit they have they spend when they meet each other they spend about five minutes just saying Kephart look at your hand allah allah allah allah allah subhan allahi Kathak Masha Allah Subhan Allah Allah Allah like hamdulillah Ya Allah Allah Allah Subhan Allah yeah I mean just about five minutes they're just doing that and what is this for to increase the love for each other in the respect for each other and we cease well kev-hog Masha Allah he sound like Rome to avocado actually Russia Allah you know and that's it maybe we don't say nothing else are we into a room we just sit down we pass each other in the doorway and we just look at each other now if we want to do the things to increase love respect we have tremendous respect and patience for each other but the kuffar when we meet the Kafar we can look at the kuffar strong watch them we don't look like that to a Muslim for the Muslim we are what a lost ones I'll say about the believes the believe is about to each other or off a man is right I should down a little karate you down a down a down a little cough re-borrow hama they know home we almost kind of like reversed it you see the brothers among the college in school the neighbors in the street their homeboys in the street they slap in five and hugging each other what's going on man saw and so then we'll you mean a Muslim in looking at understand what was he looking at Subhan Allah and brothers honestly the kuffar when they see in us this weakness a brotherhood they know we're not the right Muslims and they would not have any respect for us so I want to remind myself and remind the brothers insha'Allah that we practice this issue a Brotherhood it's simple the simple things a brother invite each other to each other's house so you get to know brother do you know me do you know your Muslim brother when did you eat with him what's this fad what's his children's name what's the names of his children does your wife know his wife where does he work what kind of business is he in what kind of knowledge does he have what can you do for him what he can do for you where does he live under what circumstance is he living what is situation first you find this out about four or five brothers then you find out about ten or fifteen brothers and how do you do that in a natural way and fight the brothers every day every week you select the Muslim to invite to come to your house for tea and after a while this will become a habit among the brothers and brothers look I'm telling you because you're young Muslims sometimes the older Muslims if you tell them this this kind of thing they heard this somewhat they say look brother you know we heard all of this before but you brothers are young and if you establish this love for each other and respect for each other now it will stay with you this love for Brotherhood will stay with you and this would be this would be the fragrance the fragrance the more the essence because then this will lead to allegiance and loyalty where there is no Brotherhood there is no allegiance and there is no loyalty and there is no even there is no discipline the complains of the professore wall of Islam they loved each other for the sake of allah subhana wa ta'ala and we know that hadith of the Prophet saws remember he mentioned that there are three qualities whomsoever has them has what has tasted halliburton amen what are those three things that a man has more love for Allah and His Messenger Salah CMMS Iwakuma he has love honor respect obedience towards Allah and His Messenger Salah stand towards the Quran in a Sunnah more than all else in the whole dunya and secondly what is it he loves another person for what reason for the sake of Allah subhana WA Ta'ala and if you love a brother what did the process awesome say you should do you should tell him yeah he will head book of Finland okey I love you for the sake of Allah you know the kafirs when they hear the Muslim brothers say to his brother actually I love you same right foot ok but these guys is funny because they don't understand how the Muslim brother he loves his brother but they don't have to understand this is a special jewel a loss of hundred to us to bind us our hearts together even we don't know each other from a linguistic point of view from a cultural point of view from an ethnic point of view we don't know each other but we have love for each other so brothers I want to just remind you of this that we consoled each other we protect each other we relieve each other we shield each other we assist each other we support each other we avoid envy and exploitation we avoid undercutting and subversion we avoid oppressing each other and intimidating each other we don't fail each other we never abandon each other we don't lie to each other we don't hate or show enmity towards one another we hold each other's property each other's life blood and honour as a trust and a sacred matter what kuqali had our stuff ilaha illaallah cool so Panik long what the HMDA corner shadow and land wanna stop for the corner to Bullock dear brothers in finality I'd like to thank you insha'Allah for listening to me and I don't have any special expertise in this particular area but just a concern inshallah to increase our Brotherhood amongst each other because if we increase our Brotherhood Allah will be more pleased with us insha Allah and if Allah is more pleased with us he will accept our dua and he will accept our you bad inshallah inshallah brother something like what let me just say a couple of just comments myself observations elem brothers as I'm talking to you brothers as young brothers the the Muslim body one of our problems is we don't have any discipline this is one of our major problems and it's it's very tragic and it's very sad whenever you come to a gathering of Muslims you find they don't have any they don't have any they have no discipline everybody is doing what he wants to do how he feels to do and even the Imam and domestic he's only the leader of the prayer this is what has happened among the Muslims the imam of the masjid is not necessarily a meal of them because if he is that mir what he has the right to do he has the right to order them if he if he does like that he doesn't even have to speak just he does like that they've sick and if he stays like that he doesn't have to speak they go he can settle disputes among them only by what by his station and respect among them they enter a room and they have tremendous respect and they don't leave without his permission this is part of the the etiquettes the Adept but you find that the muslims they come to the Masjid masha'Allah to prey on to hear a lecture whatever they do but they come as cattle and you will see it in how they enter and how they leave they don't ask permission they have no add up and who can change this the older Muslims will not change it you young brothers can change it but you yourselves have got to develop discipline you have to show by example respect for your leader we don't idolize anybody we don't idolize anybody and we're not fixed on no personalities but the discipline of Islam is to follow the leader isn't it not just in the Salah because what the process awesome said whoever raised his head before the Amman braces hit maybe Allah will turn his head into a donkey you see what does it mean it means that the prayer is teaching us what discipline coordination following the leader subduing your own nafs your own feeling not leaving even the Companions of the Prophet Allah sim they didn't just get up and leave after the prayer like they just want to they didn't do that they used to ask for permission just an etiquette Nedim ask for permission one time a man got up from from the pray he just left the Prophet saws him stopped him he said Oh so-and-so isn't there something you want to ask Allah subhana Allah for he's encouraging him to do what stay and make Nothing stay and make dua remember loss of planet to Allah and the Companions of the Prophet allows them they used to sit and wait for the signal of the prophets Allah loved us Adam then they leave this is an edit the young Muslims my advice for the young Muslims learn to follow your leader and be disciplined and be vigilant and show by your example what you expect from the others serve the Muslims will also regulate them because if there's no regulation among the Muslims all this other talk about all this talk about the Khilafah Islamic state our problem so and so it will never be resolved if we don't put our house in order putting our house in order is the respect that is shown in the universities when you go to the universities can anybody just enter the classroom and leave the classroom when they get ready can they know they cannot you cannot you expected to be in the class at a certain time and to leave at a certain time otherwise it's going to do what is going to affect your grade isn't it everything everything in the society that we live in is built around regulation and order you go to a bank you have to stand in the queue is it right you go to the Muslim world to the passport place or any other place what happens nobody wants to stand in the queue everybody's pushing and shouting and pushing and kicking each other and all you need to do is just stand in the queue whisp all right yes you see you see address what is this example it's no even not even any virtue not even a virtue to have to kiss the stone what dominant fatah Brazil unsafe when he was making Tawaf he stopped at the stone and said o stone I know that you had nothing but a stone and there is no benefit in no harm in you and if I did not see The Messenger of Allah so loosely I'm kissing you I would not do it either so hand Allah and making the twelve if one is able to do it easily hum do like this isn't this isn't this is an edible it's good you can do it but if you cannot just to just to wave at it because what is just like the gem rot you know somehow a lot of people is doing they going through a gem rot like this is real town they are not avoiding Shaitaan in their businesses at home they are not avoiding the Shaitaan then I even perform in fighter prayer they are doing all kinds of Haram in their houses but in when they go to Hajj they are throwing rocks they're throwing their shoes they're throwing everything like this is the Shaitaan and they don't realize it what is it it's only just a symbol it's a symbol so brothers I'm I say to you young brothers you have the energy you have the strength and if you are disciplined and under leadership and you respect the leader and you show discipline and order you will be able to ensure water are to help regulate the Muslims you will be able to regulate them in a gathering like we had last night maybe which will be there tonight masha'Allah we we thank Allah for the gathering of the Muslims like that but there is also another sign that we need to look at in these kind of gatherings there needs to be 40 or 50 young men who are doing what Hitler we don't call it security we called it kidman service but what are they doing they are a scene they older men when they come to the mosque and they are saying keV Holly Bravo chef Alex chef hamdullah velu giving them the best seats you see and the older is the younger brothers telling the Marquis kev-hog a key hum do lucky I can show this place over there for the younger brothers insha'Allah what are they doing they are teaching through their manners that we give the better seats for the elder and we leave the standing room only for whom the younger and we tell the brothers yeah Ali insha'Allah let me have your shoes brother I'll put them up insha'Allah and you even have a system where everything is in order I told the brother yesterday I went to Tokyo and I visited some Muslims in Tokyo so panel aqui you cannot imagine they have a masjid half the size of this place here but of all the wall space is there there is no wall space they're using every single part of space because japan is a very small island and there are no shoes no shoes in the front they have someone who stands at the bathroom toilet and they are cleaning wiping spraying towels you come outside and if you you leave water on the floor water on the sink they come tap you till you go back inside clean up behind yourself if you leave your shoes sitting outside they come and tap you and tell you brother come and they have these little things that slide open for the shoes inside slide close your clothes you have a coat you don't throw it on the side over there you take it you hang it up very very neat order discipline this is the way the Japanese are and he told me actually one thing I cannot understand is why the Muslims they don't know what to do with their shoes this subhanAllah and he is an engineer and he said he believes that there is a sickness among the Muslims which is indicative of the shoes the shoes is a sign of it he says when the Muslims find out what to do with the shoes the organization will come back to them at the time I thought that was a little bit simplistic but I think he's got something there so my suggestion brothers is that the young brothers whom Allah bless their hearts to be a treasure prayer who blessed who are blessed to have come back to their consciousness who are striving to follow the Quran and Sunnah who are young who are under discipline who were having knowledge who are being taught if it will not come through you who will come through who the change will come through the brothers should develop a group like healthful food this was the group of young people whom the prophets alhasan was with when he was young I think he was eight nine or ten years old in Mecca and he belonged to a group of young men called healthful food what does it mean and exactly a committee for doing goodness or something like that huh uh-huh see like the Boy Scouts like the 4-h club or something like that they they are committed to do what social goodness so The Messenger of Allah so Austin was involved in what social work watching and see if there's something going on in the streets and they go back and report it to the elders seeing if that somebody is sick removing something out of the path taking care of the elderly so the young people today if we initiate something like that and wherever whatever there's a gathering those brothers they are there serving the Imam he will love it they will love it because the brothers they're not doing security what they're doing they're doing service but at the same token they're also doing what the younger brothers they're helping with the shoes they're making sure the toilets are clean they're making sure around the message in assuming that the cars are parked and everything is looking good nice then making sure also who are the guests who are the elders the message in the premises also is secure from the kuffar and other types of things if we do that you'll find in sha Allah Ta'ala a few things will happen in those kinds of gatherings there are people who are planted in our gatherings to do what to create provocation to create some fitna you'll find them discouraged from doing that because they find what young men whose eyes are piercing and whom they if they don't fear Allah subhana WA Ta'ala they will fear those young men we don't intimidate any Muslims but this is one of the ways that we call it modifying bad behavior a thief you know a thief if he wants to steal he's accustomed to finding places to steal but there is a man he's a watchman he's always walking around with his as a stick and he's always watching looking what you doing well you don't get out of here see this is one place he avoids only for that one man so masha'Allah brothers there is the good element amongst us and there's the bad element among the Muslims we will all be increased you see in our discipline in our organization when there is a some element that helps to remind us of this here and so I'm suggesting to the brothers under the leadership and guidance of the Imam and under the leadership and guidance of others think about this issue and take your strengths and take your discipline and take your training take it to another level and and do service wherever you go wherever there's a gathering do service and part of that service also is in a good way helping to regulate the flow of the Muslims because you will find that some non-muslims when they come amongst us they will respond maybe they don't understand the issue of Al Qaeda but they like the Brotherhood they see among the Muslims they like the discipline they see among them they like to see how they regulate their affairs they like to see how they execute there there are activities and so we ask Allah subhana WA Ta'ala that all of this we is inculcated in the issue of Brotherhood and I just added this on as a personal concern of mine in sha allah and so i thank you brothers very much for giving me this amount of time and show our whole body and take more time and discourage you from from coming tomorrow insha'Allah desert rain on the way Savannah Clement behind econo shadow that alignment most
