The Funeral That Reminded Us to Stay Firm - ft. Husayn & Kazim · After Maghrib 🌙

0:00
The similar or him day of the Mog reviewer Salaam Alaikum
0:03
Warahmatullah Ricardo, if you've missed us, we're back.
0:08
By popular demand, the 22 I'd say learning hosts are back.
0:17
And if you've missed us, please let us know in the comments.
0:19
And I'm joined by none other than my partner in crime,
0:22
Hussein. Yeah, yeah.
0:23
How are you, my brother? To see how was your 10 nights of
0:35
morning? Where we pray, then shall
0:37
everything was accepted and all as I changes us.
0:43
Who we join with? We are joined by our dear
0:47
mentor, our dear brother, Sayed Ali Harawi.
0:51
Habibi alaikum Salah Muhammad Allah brother.
0:54
Kazum brother. Yeah, yeah, it's good to be in
0:56
your presence. No, no.
0:58
Last time when you were here with Ahmed, I got jealous, you
1:01
know. But now it's now it's my turn.
1:02
Hamdullah. How Your brother's?
1:03
Doing it's our honour, honour our honour.
1:06
Haram being Haram's been good. Hamdullah was busy as always.
1:13
I think in the benefit of being in London, we're spoiled for
1:17
choices in the amount of programs and the amount of
1:20
centres that we can attend and inshallah we made made use of
1:24
them. How was?
1:25
How was your? How was?
1:26
Shalom Hamdallah, I've made the you know, this year we were
1:30
Speaking of it downstairs a bit earlier on.
1:31
I was like, this year was a bit different because I'm, I've
1:34
attended many majorities of Hamdallah been between the
1:37
English language and the Arabic language, going with the family,
1:40
spending time with the children, focused this Muharram as well,
1:44
putting the kids in Milwaukee, getting them involved and given
1:47
out and service and everything. So it's been a nice, it's been
1:52
Muharram with the family. If I can, if I can put it from
1:54
that sense. So it's been beautiful.
1:56
We've been blessed and these majalis are a blessing.
1:59
And if we don't attend them, we're missing out.
2:00
And the beauty of it all is that you mentioned, you know, there's
2:03
been so many majalises. The other day I was speaking to
2:07
Sheikh Andrew and we counted 2020 Majoris or like a three
2:13
mile radius in northwest London. So so we were like, if you don't
2:18
go to a Majoris, there's a problem.
2:21
I'm the lot, the opportunities are there and platforms like
2:23
this aftermath for those who don't have a community nearby,
2:26
who don't have, you know, Imam Barger Hassani near to them
2:29
Charlotte platforms like this is what helps them feel like they
2:32
are part of the Majoris. And if you are and Sha Allah
2:34
wanting to take part in our recent campaign partners at
2:37
Khedema, you can find out more by visiting after muslim.com/yah
2:41
Hussain where you can support the podcast, allow us to sustain
2:45
the studio space on a monthly basis.
2:47
So please make the intention, tell your friends, tell your
2:49
family and Sha Allah would love to have you all involved.
2:52
Now Brothers, am I asking questions today or you asking
2:56
questions to me? Or is this a proper
2:58
conversation? I think today is a probable.
3:01
Conversation we're talking about.
3:03
We haven't. We talked a a lot, a little
3:06
about a lot and we talked a little in general like.
3:10
I'm scared and it's like, look after them, be nice to them and
3:13
everything. I was like, bro, yeah, I'm like
3:15
that bad, blah, blah, blah, blah.
3:18
I I think let's kick start the conversation here.
3:22
You know, Hamdullah, we've had the opportunity to attend
3:24
Majalis and I think since, you know, little children growing
3:28
up, this is a part and part of our life.
3:30
And if we look back and handle, I'm 34 now.
3:35
And if I look back over the last, let's say from 15 onwards,
3:40
what have I gained? What have I learned?
3:42
And especially if I reflect in these last 10 nights before I
3:46
answer something I want to ask you guys like over the last 10
3:48
nights from attending Majalis or taking part in the cadmium or
3:52
you know, being involved with the community, serving the
3:54
community, listening to the lectures.
3:56
What have we gained? What have what have we really
3:58
gained over the last 10 minutes? OK, Charla, I think I was
4:03
mentioning to you downstairs that I almost made a conscious
4:06
effort to actually not attend the lectures.
4:10
And I say this because I feel like sometimes when we
4:14
accumulate knowledge and I'm speaking myself primarily, OK,
4:18
this knowledge almost becomes a burden on us or becomes for me.
4:22
I've realised that my technical knowledge or the things that I
4:25
know is so far away from my actions and I'm like, what's the
4:30
point of me learning more and it becoming a burden on myself
4:34
because now I have this understanding that I'm not
4:37
fulfilling. You know, it's like me going to
4:40
the gym and like without even any thought of progressive
4:43
overload, like starting on a weight that's way too high for
4:46
me. So I thought maybe this year was
4:49
a good start, like to make that conscious decision to almost, if
4:53
my knowledge is here and my, my soul and my heart is here, than
4:57
to try and build this up before this goes anywhere, you know,
5:01
But so yeah, I, I guess it's been a bit more active in trying
5:06
to just attend the Mciva. I've volunted a few, not too
5:10
much, but inshallah the very little spark that Imam Hossein
5:15
can give me or that I can take from the the message of Imam
5:19
Hossein will be able to shall allow me to increase.
5:22
But what do you think about that?
5:24
Do you think that's a fair way of going about these majorities
5:27
or do you think that the the importance of knowledge is just
5:31
too high for me to? I don't disagree with you, but I
5:35
would never say personally that I wouldn't attend a measure list
5:40
because measures at the same time, as much as we're trying to
5:44
learn, but we're trying to, you know, reflect of what the
5:47
speaker is saying, taking that knowledge, living that knowledge
5:52
throughout our lives and things like at the same time, there's
5:54
as a like on the personal level, I do not want to miss on that.
5:57
Like from my perspective, you know, I had this compass.
6:00
Subhanallah, it's nice you rang this up before Muharram.
6:03
I had the conversation with a brother who has not attended any
6:07
measures in the last 10 nights and I was shocked with what he
6:11
was telling me. He told me he's, he's in his
6:15
early 30s, but he was like, in the last 30 years of my life,
6:19
I've attended Majalis, but I haven't personified what I've
6:24
learned. Right.
6:25
So it was an interesting thing. So it was like, I'd rather be at
6:27
home, listen to the lecture online and reflect of where I am
6:31
today. I, I encouraged him to go to the
6:33
pasenia, of course. So I didn't see him maybe
6:37
attended different centres, but I was, that was my first time
6:39
hearing it. And now you're mentioning
6:41
something similar. It's like it's, it's, it's good
6:44
to think that way because number one is tadabor and it's
6:46
reflection. And if we don't reflect and hold
6:49
ourselves accountable, are we really, you know, in line with
6:52
the teachings of the debate? If we look at Imam al Kaabam
6:55
Alayhi Salaam, he says the one who doesn't reflect, it's not
6:58
from us. And we say we are Hosseini, we
7:02
are Shi'i, we are lovers of the Alibeit Ali Mussalam.
7:06
What have we learnt from them? And just on this point, if I can
7:08
mention before I come to you, Kazem or Khaz, however you want
7:13
me to mention your name today inshallah.
7:15
But I thought about something very interesting when I was
7:21
having that convoy with that brother, why he said to me
7:26
shocked, because some things I'm not going to mention on the
7:28
podcast, why he said to me shocked me.
7:30
Then I realised, you know what, there is some truth to what
7:32
you're saying. Because if we're going to the
7:34
Medulis, if we are attending every night for the last 30
7:40
years of our lives and inshallah for the next 50 years of our
7:43
lives, we, we will never leave these Hosseini programs and
7:47
Hosseini Magalis and events and things like that.
7:49
We live, we live by them, and I think we can't live without
7:52
them. If I'm honest, I, Shia in
7:55
particular, we can't live without them.
7:56
It's what shapes us and what drives us, what motivates us to
7:59
stay on the straight path. But one thing I said to him in
8:03
return was that there are many people who go to surf without
8:09
wanting to learn. They just want to surf.
8:11
It's not a bad thing. But if you're going to call
8:13
yourself a Khadim, a servant of your Muhammad Hussein and you go
8:17
home and you're not good with your wife, you're not good with
8:21
your children, you're cheating in the workplace, you're lying.
8:25
Whether you're selling or buying good, whoever it is, just
8:28
because you're serving your mum Hussein doesn't mean you know
8:31
life is good. No, no, there is a specific
8:35
character and traits that we learn from the Adelaide Bait in
8:38
particular, mum has seen, especially over the last 10
8:41
nights. If we've gone to the most and
8:43
we've gone back to square 1 as soon as the ten nights are over,
8:46
what have we achieved? Well, that we have to reflect
8:48
because a servant and a lover of Imam Al Hussain, his eyes
8:53
doesn't see Haram, his ears doesn't listen to Haram, his
8:56
tongue doesn't speak Haram, his heart doesn't drive him towards
9:00
Haram. And that's something I think I
9:02
should reflect on as well. And when I'm saying this, I'm
9:04
talking to myself, Charla, all service of Imam Al Hussain
9:08
because talk to us. I think honestly say it.
9:13
I have an experience that will very much back up what you've
9:15
just said. So this Muharram for me has been
9:18
very different to any other Muharram I've ever had.
9:22
Because usually I'm in London for Muharram and I have, you
9:26
know, the standard route, you know, everyone has Alakwar
9:29
somewhere in the route, everyone has, you know, like the Watford
9:31
program somewhere and maybe another centre, local centre to
9:34
them in the beginning. I.
9:35
Managed to attend one night the Watford in the.
9:37
Watford. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
9:38
Love. Blessing.
9:39
Me. Honestly, it's been amazing this
9:41
year. Did you?
9:42
Stay for I. Did.
9:46
No. Have you got the time?
9:47
I apartheid in the bottom, but I didn't know that was not
9:50
happening on the bottom. I was walking out and then it
9:52
started like and I stayed and I observed.
9:54
Yeah, beautiful. Yeah, it's it's really nice and
9:56
special. But usually I have that routine
9:59
right. And for example, one much less
10:02
will be for me to sit down, enjoy the lecture, the hazard
10:06
diary and then and the one lecture what 1 programme might
10:10
be I'll be, you know, because I know the community very well.
10:12
I'll serve in that. Yeah.
10:14
But this year I was in Birmingham because I was giving
10:17
the talks for their youth in the Shia Centre in Birmingham.
10:21
Yeah, beautiful. And I loved it.
10:25
Yeah, the community there's fantastic.
10:27
The youth there are buzzing. Like it's a very lively, vibrant
10:29
community. And actually I was learning more
10:33
than I'd ever learned in any other Maharan.
10:34
Why? Because when you're preparing a
10:36
talk, you actually learn so much more than when you're just
10:38
receiving a talk because you're through so much of the recent
10:41
And the first 3-4 nights I was just there.
10:44
But while I felt a gap, like I felt some emptiness in my heart.
10:48
Yeah, I was like, why? I'm doing.
10:51
I like, you know, shortly I'm serving with Hulus and you know,
10:54
I'm doing this for ABI Abdullah and I'm learning at the same
10:57
time. I feel good about this.
11:00
But I realized it's because in this service, I'm not shedding
11:05
my own tears. You know, I'm not doing my own
11:07
Azhar. I'm preparing the talk, my talk.
11:10
We had Sheikh Mahada Waspandru in the Birmingham in the in the
11:13
gents. My talk was same time as his, so
11:16
I never got it. Of course you can catch up on
11:17
the live stream, but it's not the same.
11:19
I never got that talk. I never got his Masai Eban.
11:21
At the end I was like, this must be the gap, this must be why I'm
11:25
feeling like this. So I was searching, OK, once I
11:29
finish this talk, where can I go for me to cry, for me to
11:34
experience some of the vibe of Muharram?
11:36
And I thought Watford is the only one, and I just changed to
11:39
an electric car and the one that was the worst timing.
11:41
Yeah. Because Birmingham, too often it
11:43
kills you. Yeah.
11:44
Yeah. So.
11:46
But I said, you know, I have to have to because since I started
11:50
going and I, I felt so much better.
11:52
I felt like Muharram was actually working on me.
11:55
You know, I feel like it's less yeah here about learning than it
11:58
is about actually the transformation that comes with
12:01
Azhar itself. Because however much I learnt, I
12:04
would say that I felt Muharram when I was crying.
12:07
I don't know if that's wrong, if, if, if maybe it's a bit of
12:11
of course, knowledge has its place.
12:13
But I feel anyway that that I felt the effects and the
12:19
spiritual effect, the transformation within myself,
12:21
the reflection, the when I went home and I thought about the
12:24
Museeba and the, you know, with these dry eyes, that's when I
12:28
felt good, you know? Yeah, for six hours on the car
12:31
to reflect every day. I swear, bro.
12:33
Sir More in London daily. So from fifth night to 10th
12:37
night every day. Or maybe I missed one I'll rate.
12:40
You that drive? Yeah.
12:41
Yes, it's not What? Drove you.
12:45
No, it's beautiful man you you mentioned that keyword
12:48
transformation sufficient if we if we talk about about Abdullah
12:51
Hussein Ali Salaam and the journey towards school fire
12:55
eventually the tragedy, the battle in Karbala, the whole
12:58
point was transformation, trying to transform the ummah back to
13:01
the teachings of Rasulallah Sallallahu alaihiwali wasallam.
13:05
And just a point to mention to add to what you were saying was
13:09
the people that went to war with the Bah Abdullah, they read
13:12
Quran, they were praying Salah right?
13:16
They were claiming to be Muslim, yet they took their swords
13:20
against the very grandson of Rasulullah Sallallallahu Alaihi,
13:24
which makes your question, Yani, if we're praying, we're reciting
13:28
Quran, but our heart is not in the right place.
13:30
What are we doing? Honestly, what are we doing?
13:32
Yani? That's that's a shame.
13:34
One less a shame. And if we go just I just want to
13:37
stay in this point a bit longer that if we go to the Majalis and
13:40
we don't come out praying on time or we don't come out
13:44
improving the our understanding and our matter affair with the
13:47
Quran, with Imam Sahab al Hafi, with Zaman, with the reasons
13:50
that we fast, with the reasons why we're here, not just fairing
13:54
the Hellfire and all having yearning for gender.
13:56
Like there's certain things that need to happen within us for us
14:00
to become better Muslims. At the end of the day, even if
14:04
we one time someone said, you know, how do I become a better
14:08
Muslim? And I was like, you need to
14:10
imagine that someone is asking you about the religion.
14:14
If you watch clips online, for example, I'm not, I don't want
14:17
to promote speakers corner or something, but similar to that
14:21
field, what do people watch when they want to learn about Islam?
14:24
They either go speakers corner, they write certain influencer
14:27
names or things. They come across content where
14:31
if you realise the way those who are giving that away, the way
14:34
they converse and speak, they try to speak with the best of a
14:37
Slack, right? They try to speak with the best
14:39
of manner. They try to give you analogies,
14:41
examples. They speak in a way where it's
14:44
digestible to you. There's reasoning, there's
14:46
things like that, right? But why are they doing that?
14:49
Because they're trying to represent their religion in the
14:51
very best way possible. And if we think about that, that
14:55
representation, people who want to learn about Islam, especially
14:59
people who want to look at Shia Islam, they're going to look at
15:02
you. You, myself, others out there,
15:06
the way we present the religion, we are representing not just
15:10
Allah, but also Allah, because they've never opened the Quran,
15:14
they've never met the prophet. We haven't met the prophet but
15:17
we inshallah on this understand his rasallah and the message
15:21
that he he brought to this religion.
15:23
So if we can't present or promote Rasul Allah, the Ehlu
15:29
bait, the Quran, Allah, Azza Wajal, Islam and it's and it's
15:33
society, there's something there's something happening
15:36
that's wrong. And I don't want to say we're
15:38
hypocrites, but maybe we are. Especially, especially if your
15:43
actions are supposed to be a manifestation of your beliefs.
15:46
And that's the scary thing is that sometimes like, sorry, I
15:49
don't want to interject, but you mentioned like you were
15:52
preparing to give a talk in Birmingham, right?
15:57
And I'm, and I'm, and I'm pretty certain when you are preparing,
16:01
maybe when you were taking notes or trying to memorize a verse or
16:05
a hadith or something, you probably thought, am I there?
16:09
You know how much conversations I've had here?
16:10
And Ahmed knows this and sometimes I speak about it to
16:14
him and I tell him, OK, we just spoke about this, but what about
16:17
us? Like, are we there?
16:19
And if we're promoting something, if we're saying
16:22
something, it's our heart there. Are we there?
16:25
That's the scary bit. Like you can tell people or
16:28
advise people or speak on behalf of the religion or for example,
16:33
promote the religion. And he's, when I'm saying what
16:37
scholars or anything. But the moment there's a
16:40
microphone, there's people tuning in, watching, listening
16:43
all all over around the world, there is a responsibility.
16:45
And we have to live up to that responsibility.
16:48
And it's not just talk, it's action.
16:50
Yeah, sorry. Back to your point.
16:51
Yeah, I'm. You know what, even even within
16:54
this Mahara, Yeah, the imposter syndrome I felt was crazy one
16:58
like, yeah, but like, 'cause who am I to to even tell these kids
17:02
anything, do you know what I mean?
17:04
Yeah, but you're right. Like if you're given a platform,
17:07
you have to use it for the best of bet, the best you can.
17:10
Yeah, sure, I'll. Ask and if you like this
17:12
platform, if you like the Aftermathclub platform, please
17:14
let us know in the comments and become partner and by visiting
17:18
aftermathclub.com/yeah Hussain. I'm going to use every
17:21
opportunity I can to plug this new campaign because it's vital,
17:24
man. It's important, Hamdullah and
17:26
I'm and I, I think we need to share like myself, Ahmed, we
17:31
should share with you the amount of messages that come in to
17:34
Aftermathclub and how people use this platform to not just become
17:41
better Muslims, but to have an understanding of what Shia Islam
17:45
is. When I say there is a huge
17:49
audience who are not Shia, they're shocking.
17:52
We are a Shia Muslim podcast, but there are those who are not
17:55
Shia who TuneIn and listen in and we clarify misconception.
18:00
We give clarity to something they've been raised and brought
18:04
up to believe true to be a lie and stuff like that.
18:08
So it was important. Like if, if we know the the
18:11
effect that platforms like Arthur Markle has on the outside
18:16
world, we'd want to become better ourself.
18:18
And when I read those messages and when they come in and I
18:22
think, bro, if, if we're having this sort of effect, is it
18:26
affecting me as well, is what I'm saying?
18:28
Am I implementing this at home? You know, sometimes I can speak
18:32
so much, sorry. Sometimes I go home and my wife
18:35
says she told me once, Oh, you said this.
18:37
I saw this clip. Someone's one of her friends
18:40
shares something that I must have said.
18:42
And then she was like, Are you sure about that?
18:45
I'm like hanging up sometimes I'm like, I'm sure of why I said
18:49
and I can have proven that in that in that area.
18:51
But it's it's, it's, it's reality and it's a mirror.
18:55
It's a reflection. Anyway, I've spoken so much,
18:57
sorry. I have one more question for
18:58
you, John. So you mentioned you've been
19:00
listening to Majalis, so let's say for the last 20 years.
19:03
Yeah. I'm curious on how the message
19:06
of Imam Hussein has evolved in your understanding over the over
19:11
that period. Like did he mean something to
19:14
you that has changed? Have you taken different things
19:17
from it at time of? That's a solid question.
19:20
A very big question no one's asked me.
19:21
That before I should have gone along.
19:24
If I can be frank, I haven't given it that much for, but
19:29
what's come to my mind right now is that why?
19:32
What have what I have understood, especially over the
19:35
last four to five years, is Imam Hussein's mission in Karbala,
19:40
right? Normally it's what led to
19:43
Karbala, the tragedy, the Musiba and every, every, everything
19:47
that took place is a Musiba. You, you can't get out of the
19:50
Aza in the mourning period. But there was more to it was
19:54
there was a godly mission behind it.
19:57
And the one thing that I can take from what I've learnt is
20:00
that he stood for Haqq. He knew what Haq was and he died
20:06
for Haq no matter like what came toward him because he knew like
20:11
religion reached a period of time where we're so corrupted.
20:17
As I said earlier on, people were praying and recite the
20:22
Quran, yet the swords were against the very grandson of the
20:25
Holy Prophet, peace be upon him. But to him it was the Haqq like
20:31
the truth and no, no matter what and he you will live by the
20:35
truth. You promote the truth you and
20:38
you die on truth. Can we say that?
20:41
Can I say I don't know Charlotte, we can, but can we
20:45
like if you think about the entire mission, it was a was
20:48
based on hack, the truth and the Quran tells us like Farah Hapi
20:53
Kari Horn like and he's chatting about the Muslims, right that
20:57
the majority of them don't even like the truth and I'll handle
21:00
are we shit? We say we are on hack, but will
21:04
we die on hack? And that's a reflection.
21:06
I and I think that's really played played hard on me.
21:09
Is that what is hack? What is this truth?
21:11
You know, we always talk about Ali on my hack when hack on my
21:16
Ali. These are something we know
21:18
inside out. What does truth mean?
21:21
I'll ask you the same question. I think obviously shall I get a
21:27
few more years of this understanding, but one thing I
21:30
was thinking about was like Karbala for many of us is like
21:35
our North Star, right? And I think there's like a few
21:37
different reasons that I was thinking as why that may be why
21:40
it becomes almost the centre of the universe of this, not even
21:43
the Shia universe. And I think the there are two
21:46
main reasons why I think that. One is obviously the theological
21:49
like sacrifice that Imam Hussain gave because it's interesting
21:53
because we have so much love for these people because of the
21:56
quality of their blood, of their sacrifice, despite outside of
22:01
Karbala, we don't, I think for myself, we don't know too much
22:04
about these individuals outside of the sacrifice and the mission
22:08
within Karbala. So like, the fact that it had
22:12
that much theological weight and theological importance as a
22:14
result of the lineage of the Prophet and the the albeit it
22:18
shows you just how special and how incredible like the weight
22:22
of these characters were and also the amount of love that has
22:26
moved us hundreds of years onwards.
22:29
And like the things that happen in the name of Mount Hussain is
22:32
incredible. Yeah.
22:33
And I think the other reason why that is, is because there's a
22:36
story in Karbala for everyone. You know, you have so many
22:40
different examples where almost the height of every relationship
22:44
comes together and then every interaction that we have is
22:48
almost like a lower manifestation of these like
22:51
archetypes of these stories of these examples.
22:53
You know, whether it's horror returning, whether it's the the,
22:56
the love between Imam Hussein and Hazard Abbas or.
23:00
Husband, wife, husband, father, father, father, son, brothers,
23:03
cousins and I think. Even like to like to great life.
23:08
I thought, you know, in the middle of a war, like everything
23:11
there's is just like an incredible, it's like it
23:15
couldn't be written any better. You know, like if, if you, if
23:17
you would, you know what I'm trying to say like a an author
23:19
couldn't have scripted anything better.
23:21
Yeah, yeah, it's you. Know like I think it's just like
23:25
this incredible, but. Sheikh Shikhar was Jaffer
23:28
actually made the point he was like sometimes to to get maybe
23:34
some of the speakers make a mistake or but to get an
23:36
audience to cry. They might add some details in
23:41
that maybe aren't in the original Mokhtar and this and
23:44
that. But Sheikh Wasjafra was very he
23:47
made the very good point and I was like, the Mostiba is so
23:50
great that you don't actually need to add anything in.
23:53
Do you know what I mean? There's nothing that you can add
23:55
that makes it any worse, that makes it any more painful and
23:58
more tragic that the original is the most painful it can ever be.
24:02
Like nothing can increase it. Like there was that 11 poet.
24:06
The his line always sat with me that it's not strange for
24:10
someone to die thirsty in a desert, but it's very strange
24:14
for someone to die thirsty next to a river.
24:16
You know what I mean? It's to plan.
24:18
A law. It's very strange for someone to
24:20
die thirsty next to a river. And so these these exactly the
24:25
way it's been scripted by our last Pahala, by our Lord, is to
24:29
show the epitome of of eulogy of trials and tribulations.
24:34
And how one can, you know, overcome every shackle and every
24:38
kind of chain, not have any fear of death, not have any fear of
24:41
losing their loved ones, not have any fear of their
24:43
reputation and just be a free, you know.
24:48
Well, Karbala is, you know, there's just the way you said
24:53
that. You don't need to add anything
24:54
to it. You don't need to add the
24:55
tragedy itself as some must leave.
24:58
And if you, if you, if you think about it, even the way Salaam
25:02
Alayh, the Imam, Imam Hussein was killed, it wasn't the normal
25:06
death, Yani. It wasn't like someone shot an
25:10
arrow and that was it. No, there was hundreds of
25:13
arrows, Yani. It's like when you read a blab
25:16
in Makatil, the maktal of Imam Hussain, Salaam Allah Alayhi.
25:21
It's I don't want to mention it because these are some things we
25:25
leave for the Knights leading up to the 10th of Muharram and the
25:29
day of Aishwarya itself. But would you believe that when
25:33
you open up the muktel and you read Shimmer Anatullahi Allah
25:36
when he comes to the body of Imam Hussain, while Imam Hussain
25:41
is gasping for air, is what it says in the muktel, he kicks him
25:47
Galli that, that is a tragedy. Allah al Haveen, you don't need
25:50
to kill ABBA Abdullah. Just the very fact you do that
25:53
action to the son of Fatima Zahra, to the to, to the very
25:58
man Rasul Allah, said Hussein and Mini or Anam and Hussein
26:02
Wallah is a tragedy. Knowing those facts.
26:05
Himself and he Imam Hussein, he tells him, do you know who am I?
26:09
Not the the grants. He goes, I know you are the son
26:11
of Fatima. I know who you are.
26:13
Yeah. He goes on to do this.
26:14
And something very scary. I think if I just go back to the
26:18
very beginning of our conversation when we were like,
26:20
we go to the majlis and we walk out and nothing's changed.
26:24
Omara bin Saad, he knew who Imam Al Hussain was fully even until
26:32
the eve, the night before the 10th of Muharram, he tried to
26:36
get out of and he didn't also want to be involved because he
26:40
knows. But what led him to do what he
26:42
done? What's this love for this dunya?
26:45
He wanted that land. Like it's like if, if we're not
26:49
careful as much because Omar bin Saad cried as what?
26:52
By the way, read the Mccartan Omar bin Saad cried for Imam Al
26:57
Hussein in Karbala. The very man who told Shimmer to
27:03
go and finish the Imam of Salaam Alayan was crying himself.
27:07
And that's get well. And you think about it.
27:09
If I Add all these things down, they cried for Imam Al Hussain.
27:12
They prayed on on the day of Ashura.
27:15
They were reciting Quran, they were reciting Adan.
27:19
The men who came with horror, they prayed behind the Imam al
27:23
Hussain. Yet these same people killed
27:25
Imam Al Hussain. It's crazy.
27:29
He's just you. Know we do this to a much
27:31
obviously level every time that we sin, despite praying, despite
27:35
reading the Quran, despite crying for Hussein.
27:38
Like what separates? Yeah.
27:40
Are we any different? No, that's a that's a very good
27:42
thing. They.
27:43
Were not They were not able to because I think all intellects
27:46
point back to the path of ABI Abdullah.
27:49
But Amila Mamini has a saying come in Akalin, Assir and Amir.
27:54
How many intellects are held captive under a reigning desire,
27:59
meaning chains are hell holding intellects captive that all of
28:03
these chains that they had, all of these desires and this love
28:06
of this world that they had, we're not allowing them to see
28:09
the truth. And we have to think that, you
28:11
know, sometimes in our own life, OK, a short life, ABI Abdullah
28:16
was there. We say that, oh, Imam, if you
28:18
were there would have been with you.
28:20
We have to think that maybe our chains are different to their
28:22
chains. Our chains could be anything but
28:26
the words of the Imam, that these chains blind the
28:28
intellect. They they, they silence your
28:31
your intellectual voice telling you what is right, what is
28:33
wrong. Salaam Allah Al Hussain, you
28:37
know, bringing the whole tragedy to, to current day life to the
28:42
events we see around the world to from our leaders to our
28:49
scholars, the similarities that they face.
28:56
And sometimes we compare them to events we read about and know
29:00
about when it comes to Karbala or the Messiah and the tragedy
29:03
similar that of the Ehrlbait Alaihm Salaam I there's there's
29:07
something I need to mention. And that is when we look at
29:11
those who represent our method, the Jeffrey School of four, the
29:15
school of Ehrlbait, there is certain traits and
29:18
characteristics that they have that prove to us that we can die
29:25
on that same path. And if we look at the recent
29:29
war, the US war, the recent, the recent Israel, US war against
29:33
the Iran, for example, if we talk about the latest, say it.
29:37
What does he remind you of? If I can just ask like what,
29:42
what does he remind you of? What was he standing against?
29:46
What was he fighting against? What was he defending?
29:50
What was he? If I mention, for example,
29:54
tyranny, oppression, truth, falsehood, what do you remember?
29:59
I was saying, and I think, you know, it is something I felt is
30:08
that through him, through Sayed and, and seeing how he was his
30:14
Akhlaq, his love, the way that he treated like the, the sons of
30:19
the Shahada, the daughter, the shahada, the daughters of.
30:23
And then I'm seeing the, the love he has and the Akhlaq he
30:25
has and I'm like, well, I love him so much Now.
30:29
Imagine how incredible my Imam must be, you know, that he is a
30:33
shadow in the, in the in, in, in the awaited 1, you know, like
30:38
it's like what kind of character will the Imam have that I fell
30:41
in love with someone infallible, you know, but I think he was
30:47
special and I think you see that the love that the people had for
30:50
him, you know, you've seen the crowds.
30:53
It's incredible. It's.
30:55
Incredible it is and a shock, you know, just to mention that
30:58
just this thing about the you know, firstly made Allah bless
31:02
his soul and elevate his ranks. Just this thing about the the
31:06
numbers of the crowds, which is I think if I'm not mistaken,
31:10
like reading all the headlines and coming across all the
31:12
journalists notes, you have broken world records when it
31:16
comes to funerals. And we're talking about an
31:18
excess of 14 million people as of today.
31:22
Our data of recording, they say, as Janaz has only just landed in
31:26
the holy city of Najaf. So the procession by time it
31:28
releases, I think it's returned back to the holy city of
31:32
Mashhad. But where we stand as of today,
31:34
we're talking about just in Iran who have come out between Tehran
31:37
and home, 14 million people mourning.
31:42
And, you know, when they mourn our scholars, they don't just
31:46
mourn. No, they, they, they, they
31:49
chant, Hey, Hartman Abdullah, they chant Le Beke al Hussain.
31:53
They beat their chest remembering the tragedies of
31:56
Irmar Qusay. And that's the beauty that we
31:57
have, you know, is that whatever we go through, we always go back
32:03
to the elevate. You know, I, I've, I've
32:04
mentioned this a few times on the podcast, especially I think
32:08
seasons 1 and season 2 when my late father passed away.
32:13
May Allah to protect your parents for you.
32:18
It was really tough. I was 15.
32:21
It was so tough. But what got me through was the
32:24
Muslim of a Helen Beit. One likes to say, OK, this is
32:27
painful. One likes to hurt the void, the
32:30
void of not having your father like in the same living room
32:34
come into your bedroom or you know, leaving going to school
32:37
without saying bye and things like this.
32:39
But they used to hurt. But I used to remember, for
32:40
example, Karbala. I was like, there's no
32:43
comparison whatsoever. And these things, they help us
32:47
and as much as we mourn our leaders, our scholars, people
32:50
who represent the medhab and things like this, at the at the
32:53
end of the day, it takes us back to the Adelaide Ali Musalam and
32:58
it reminds us that where we have a duty and and to make we are
33:00
living during the occultation of Sahab al after was the man me
33:03
Allah hastens reappearance. I just want to.
33:05
Make a point there. Sorry for interrupting.
33:08
Like the Alhabet, like they are there for us as Shia, but
33:13
they're not limited to us as Shia.
33:14
And I think what I saw as the funeral was the fact that his
33:18
ability to be able to have so many people across non
33:23
religious, non hijab wearing, non Shia, but still had so much
33:27
love for him because of the characteristics of the Alhabet
33:30
that he embodied. You know, like the majority of
33:33
people, they may not have been practicing, but they had such,
33:35
such love to flood the streets for him, I think is incredible.
33:39
And in terms of leadership, right, I don't think you've seen
33:44
or we've seen an ideology that has this much love for the
33:48
leaders, you know, very much in our Western democratic systems
33:53
because they're elected on, on, on criticism always, you know,
33:56
because there's always an opposition.
33:58
They're never adored. They're never loved.
34:00
They're never, you know, but you see our leaders and we're
34:04
willing to give everything for them.
34:06
But. Our leaders, they don't die a
34:08
natural death, you know, and and that's the beauty behind it is
34:12
that this, this they are blessed with Shahada.
34:15
And you know, Shahada is, is the blessing from the last final.
34:19
It's a status and a rank that's sure surpasses anything.
34:25
And when it comes to where you are and the hereafter, the
34:29
position that if you die, you know, you're still alive and
34:32
you're still receiving risk of sustenance from a lost one or
34:35
Tahala. And that that is something I
34:37
think the world doesn't understand.
34:39
And Inshallah, we can understand what what that means and allows
34:42
us to build a matter affair with Imam and Mehdi Ajalata Allah for
34:46
Ajaz Sharif, that maybe one day who knows that his return
34:49
happens during our lifetime. And if it does, will we be
34:53
there? You know, we talk about 313, how
34:57
many social media profiles I've seen of 313 ya Mehdi tattoos, Ya
35:02
Mehdi 3 bro, let's be real. Are we, are we ready for the
35:06
Imam? I don't know if I'm going to
35:08
take the conversation there, but if I can ask you now, if Imam
35:11
and Mehdi came right now and he sat here amongst us 3 where are
35:16
we? Where are we?
35:20
Well, where are we? If I look in the last 24 hours,
35:24
did I do anything that please the Imam and lady?
35:27
I don't know. OK, we don't the obligatory acts
35:30
and whatnot, but what did we do to please Sahaba as there was a
35:32
man, our mum sees us, he hears us, he's alive, he's breathing,
35:39
we can talk to him. He listens to us.
35:42
We send our salams to him. He says well, Ali Kumar Salaam
35:45
to us, right? But what did we do to please
35:47
him? What did we do to build marathon
35:49
with him? What did we do to hasten his
35:51
reappearance? Charla, we can all do some
35:55
active in the bar. Yeah, and I know that's a
35:58
discussion for another day, but it's a good reflection to have
36:01
him. This Muharram, actually one of
36:03
my biggest takeaways was that in preparation for the Imam monkey,
36:08
the actor that we speak about, I never got the respected like I
36:11
got this Muharram which was there was a speaker who spoke a
36:16
lot about becoming motar for the Imam, right?
36:19
Like, you know how you say, like becoming absolutely hopeless and
36:25
desperate for the Holy Imam? And I think that that is
36:30
something that I lack myself in terms of.
36:33
I've never thought about it in such a way that, OK, I can
36:36
prepare myself. But one of the fundamental
36:39
things is I need to see Hazrat Imam as the solution.
36:43
I need to see him as the solution to all my problems.
36:46
If I think that the Imam will come to help me and to, you
36:51
know, possibly bring peace to, to the world and everything.
36:54
OK, But is that going to put me in a state of desperation?
36:59
Is that going to, you know what I mean?
37:00
I think sometimes we limit the role of the Imam to something of
37:03
a peacemaker of the world, right?
37:05
Maybe I'm speaking for myself in my head.
37:08
Sometimes I do that. I simplify his role to a
37:10
peacemaker of the world. OK, this conflict will stop and
37:13
that's it. But actually if you if you see
37:16
in the hadith how much mercy and the Rahman love, there will be
37:19
like it, it has an effect on you that you become desperate for
37:22
these things. You become desperate for that
37:23
kind of love to spread all around the world.
37:26
I think that's something that we miss, you know, becoming needy
37:28
for the Holy Imam. Shala, we earn it, we earn that
37:31
day, but Shala we, we live by it and not just wanting it to
37:36
happen, no actively working towards preparing the ground for
37:41
his return. But it starts here, man, starts
37:46
here, starts with the matter of yeah, we've had, you know, I'll
37:49
encourage all our viewers to go back to 15 Shaban last year.
37:53
But we had, I think it was a 2 hour episode to say that
37:56
Muhammad Baker Kazwini, we spoke about IMAP sahab.
37:59
Alas, it was Zaman and bro, it was a reality check.
38:04
You know, after the episode, I remember the saying it was like,
38:06
oh, how was the episode? I was like, I thought, I don't
38:09
know what I need to restart my life.
38:12
My whole life needs to, you know, start from scratch.
38:14
And please listen to that episode.
38:16
If you know people questioning the Imam, if you know people who
38:19
don't understand the Imam's role was our duty during the
38:23
occultation, please give that episode a listen.
38:25
Last year, 15 Shaban Hussein Hamid Bhakti Kazwini, give a
38:29
listen, share it with your friends, share it with your
38:31
family. And the year prior to that as
38:33
well, we had the conversation with Said Ali Khali also
38:36
regarding Imam Sahmid Asim Zaman.
38:38
Don't miss those two episodes. These are two episodes.
38:41
Wallah, if, if, if it doesn't allow you to understand the Imam
38:44
a bit better, at least you have any doubts or anything in your
38:47
mind. There's clarity towards it.
38:49
And clarity is very important. And we look today, God forbid
38:55
we, we have a fall trapped to this stuff.
38:57
We look today, a lot of people question where is the Imam?
39:01
Why is he not here now with all that we see happening around the
39:05
world? But if we have marathon clarity,
39:08
we knows, we we know what our role is.
39:10
And if we want the amount to be here, there's a specific thing
39:13
we need to do on ourselves in Charlotte to hasten his
39:17
reappearance and to allow bad justice to take over injustice.
39:24
That's like ultimately that's that's, that's that's our goal.
39:26
We're living in Akhra Zaman and people always ask this very
39:30
question. Are we in the end of times like
39:32
how many times have you heard this?
39:34
Or maybe we've asked it, are we akhar Zaman?
39:36
You know if we are living during the occultation and we are in
39:40
Akharil Zaman but how long that last?
39:43
That's only the element of Allah spawn or what's Allah?
39:45
Any lost words brothers? You want to share about anything
39:49
before? I should say it.
39:52
So these words of yours, they remind me of a of a story
39:55
actually that I heard in in Muharram and it start with me a
39:58
lot. So, as you all know, Bahrain.
40:02
Is a country of majority Shia population, but the government
40:06
is not Shia, It's a Sunni government.
40:10
And there was a time, I think when the Sonia rulers, one of
40:19
the Sunni rulers, he had a kind of tricky play.
40:21
This is a true story. Yeah, he had a tricky played
40:25
where he had a pomegranate and he would put some kind of device
40:29
in the baby pomegranate and some ink so that when the pomegranate
40:33
grew, it would grow with this transcription inside of it.
40:37
And the transcription was LA Allah, Allah, Muhammad Rasallah,
40:40
Al Awkhar, Omar Othman Ali Khalafa.
40:42
Allah. Yeah.
40:43
OK, So therefore for for Khalafa and Allah and the Holy Prophet
40:48
as the messengers. And so this minister of the
40:53
Sunni government took it to the ruler of the time and he said we
40:57
have this proof from a last Mantala miracle against the Shia
41:01
as a proof that we are on the right Sierra, the right mob hub.
41:06
And the ruler was like, wow, this is incredible.
41:10
Like that last Mantala has given you this hodja, this proof
41:12
against them. And so I said, OK, we're going
41:16
to take this to them, the Shii clerics, we're going to give
41:19
them some options. Those Archibismilla, they went,
41:23
they met the Shii scholars and they said we had give you 3
41:26
options. Well, now that you've seen this
41:28
proof, either you convert to Sunni Islam or you agree to pay
41:35
the tax that is given to Kufar. We declare you Kufar and you
41:39
agree to pay the tax. Interesting.
41:41
If you don't accept this tax, then we'll kill you.
41:42
Yeah. So these are your three options
41:45
because this is a proof for us and now we know that you're on
41:47
the wrong path. So the sheet is close.
41:50
Like, wow, how did they get this pomegranate that says all these
41:53
things? I don't want to say, OK, give us
41:56
three days. They told this minister, give us
41:58
three days. They're like, yo, we are
42:02
finished. Yeah.
42:03
We don't know how this has happened.
42:05
No one can explain how this has happened.
42:07
Our only hope is in Imam Zaman. He's the only hope.
42:12
If there's any argument against them, it's going to be with him
42:17
and the minister. By the before he agreed.
42:20
OK, you have three days. If in three days you can't
42:22
provide an argument, then you have to choose from these
42:24
options. It's OK.
42:25
So they went back to the houses and they agreed that we'll send
42:30
a scholar in under the open sky in the middle of the night to do
42:34
the Amal, to meet Saheb al Austria Zaman and get some
42:37
advice from him and ask for his help.
42:40
So they sent on the first night a scholar.
42:41
He went into the open sky in the middle of the night, did the
42:44
Amal. He's waiting.
42:46
The sun starts to come up. He fails.
42:48
He doesn't. He's not able to meet the Imam.
42:49
He returns back. They asked him, did you meet
42:52
him? No, I didn't.
42:53
That's OK. Second night they send another
42:56
scholar. OK, you Sheikh, you go and do
42:58
the Amal, see if you can get some advice.
43:01
So he goes, there's the same thing under the open sky again,
43:03
doesn't meet the Holy Imam. Then on the third night, they
43:06
send another Sheikh. Sheikh, you go and do the same.
43:09
Amal, you have to get it right this time.
43:11
This is our last chance. Tomorrow morning we're meeting
43:13
the minister. So the Sheikh goes and he says
43:16
that in the desert in the distance, I saw a light coming
43:19
towards me and the light approached me and said I am
43:23
Makiya Tullah. I am the Imam.
43:27
And the Sheikh was like, we have this problem.
43:30
The imam was like, I already know the problem.
43:32
For the last three nights, people have been talking to me
43:34
about this problem. You should go to the minister's
43:37
house. And next to the minister's
43:39
house, you'll see all of these kind of traps and these kind of
43:42
inks and engravings. And like that you show it to the
43:44
ruler, he'll be he'll, he'll believe you guys.
43:47
He'll, you know, you'll have clocked the deception.
43:50
So they went, they did that. The ruler was like, OK, wow, but
43:53
the point of the story is not that.
43:54
The point of the story is that why did the Imam only answer on
43:58
the third night? So he asked the Imam, Imam,
44:01
you've heard my other two friends that have asked you, why
44:04
only are you answering me? The Imam replied, why did you
44:07
ask for three nights? If you had asked for one, you
44:11
would have been so desperate on the first night I would have
44:12
come. But you asked for three nights,
44:15
and only on this night were you so desperate that you needed me
44:17
to come. So the beauty in the story is
44:20
this that you have to like really be desperate.
44:24
You know, that's what that mom is saying that if you don't ask
44:27
for one hour to come on the first night, like it's funny in
44:29
the city in the one way that we maybe we're we're over
44:32
complicating it. Maybe it's as simple as really
44:34
needing him say. Like you mean it say.
44:37
Like you mean it exactly. Yeah.
44:38
Oh, that's beautiful, man. That's a nice story.
44:41
Thanks for sharing it. Because it makes us also wonder,
44:44
like for example, we may if we don't ask for one night, three
44:46
nights, we may be delaying the return without knowing.
44:49
Yeah, it's a nice, so nice story that you shared.
44:53
This is something I'm going to look into because, bro, that's
44:57
something that's mad, honestly is mad.
45:00
Because if you're telling me like that, your mom answered him
45:03
in that specific way. There is so much lesson just to
45:06
learn from this, this brief story.
45:07
Inshallah. Yeah, Yeah.
45:10
I think the story reminded me that if you truly sometimes the
45:18
if you actually want to change something, you have to realise
45:21
that you have no power over it and to kind of surrender.
45:26
And then maybe then you know, you realise that you're nothing
45:30
without without a lion and the widow of a lion and the
45:35
intercession of Imos. So then, shallow we have that
45:38
intercession I. Hope I don't get mocked for my
45:40
storytelling skills. I love Rob, I didn't drag it out
45:43
too long. I'm sure the comments of that
45:45
what did the kids in Birmingham thing Yeah, how how was your
45:48
reception in. Birmingham yeah, I didn't want
45:50
to oversimplify as well because I have to change the way I say,
45:52
you know, I'm not telling it to like 10 to 15 year old so I have
45:55
to simplify it. I.
45:57
Got $1,000,000 question. I know we're coming to the end
46:00
but however I do want to ask Irvine the 40th of Imam and
46:03
Hussain. It's not too far away.
46:06
Is there an intention to be there this year?
46:08
There's intention every year. It's whether the Imam will
46:12
accept my Hajjah to be there. I really wish Inshallah to be
46:17
there. Inshallah and if I ask you why
46:22
should we go if someone's listening now, why should I go
46:26
to Karbala? Why should I visit the shrine of
46:28
Imam Hussain and why the 40th of Imam Hussain?
46:32
What would you say to Who's the? Who's the demographic?
46:34
Who's listening? Give me a.
46:37
I'm listening. I'm listening because I'm
46:39
hoping, you know, we've got fellow brothers, woman and
46:42
woman. That's when Charlotte on this
46:43
journey together. If.
46:45
If no other reason, yeah. If there's no if you don't want
46:48
to go into the specific recommendations about the 40th
46:52
being the exact thing. If for no other reason, then
46:55
this has naturally become the reply of Labek to that call of
47:00
ABI Abdullah Helman Nursery and Surani.
47:02
Is there anyone left to help me? This has somehow become the
47:05
Labek to that call. And I think that you see in the
47:09
numbers how much people there's a beauty in in the numbers.
47:14
You know what I mean? Of course, there's a beauty
47:15
offseason also and the quiet and the spirituality.
47:18
But I think Arbena special. Special Hamdullah.
47:21
I've had the opportunity to go. I think, you know, I was
47:24
counting the other day 10 years Al Hamdullah and it's, it's
47:28
something that I would never imagine not being there.
47:33
Then shall I have the opportunity to go this year?
47:35
Also like a the paradox in some ways, you know, like.
47:38
Oh, it's home. We're.
47:39
We're in a culture whereby we take, yeah, that's the culture
47:43
where they give despite not having what what do they, what
47:46
do they have to give? And they give everything that
47:47
they have. Yeah, this is a a well view that
47:49
we haven't realise it's possible for the rest of the world.
47:53
We think that this is the status quo and this is an exception.
47:56
Who said that? This can't be The Who said that
47:58
can't be the status quo and the way that we live is unnatural.
48:01
So I think to experience that is.
48:04
And it's beautiful because I, I really encourage inshallah our
48:07
viewers to make the attention at your book and don't go alone.
48:10
Take your family man, take encourage your friends as well.
48:13
Go together because over there you meet people like yourself,
48:17
you well, like you, you realise this like there's, there's like
48:21
a movement, this Husseini movement that's similar to what
48:23
you said. It's like, imagine people
48:25
walking into a slab. Alasiwa Zaman, like inshallah,
48:28
when he reappears and you make a call, are we going to walk as
48:31
well? You know, recently just I keep
48:33
adding things to the convo, but there was a picture that was
48:36
shared. And I've also seen it a few
48:38
times without being shared to me directly on social media like
48:41
Instagram where they have people doing the mushiya, right?
48:45
So they're doing the walk to the shrine of Imam and Hussain for
48:48
his 40th and then you have on one side of the road it says
48:59
Karabella, it says you walk into Karabella on the other sign,
49:03
it's like a road sign. The way they've edited it, it
49:05
says understanding cross in. So you've got millions walking.
49:12
They put it in walking towards Karabella and they have two
49:15
people walking to those who have marathon with Imam Hussein and
49:19
one law made me think I've never seen Arabahine from that lens
49:22
before. Like when we go to the shrine,
49:24
are we, is it just Ziara? Is it something we want to
49:28
return? Is it a Hajja?
49:30
Is it we we want to express our love?
49:32
Or was it building a Marafin? And you know, we have that
49:35
famous saying Manzar Hussain, Arafin Bihaka, Azar Allahufi
49:41
Arshad, the one who visits Imam Hussein, the shrine, the grave
49:44
of Imam Hussain, knowing his status, it's as if though he
49:48
visited the shrine of Allah Subhanahu Attallah and the
49:51
Inshallah Ali. It's for those who are going
49:53
myself, if I'm going inshallah, if you brothers go shalt Ahmed,
49:58
I'm going to call them after the Shabbat.
49:59
So please let's go, man. If we do have the opportunity,
50:02
let it be this year about Marafa.
50:05
And we cry, we go to the majlis. We, we like I say, I, I don't
50:12
want to say that going to the Majlis without learning anything
50:15
is bad because it's still good that we go in the 1st place.
50:19
And even that one tear that we shed, you know we have this
50:21
narration by the holy imams that say a tear, a single tear that
50:27
we drop the size of a wing of a mosquito Shafar phos does away
50:36
with our sins. I need like the greatness of if
50:39
we can't learn anything, at least we cry for them to save
50:41
Allah cried Salallahu Ali Hawaii was selling before Karbala
50:45
happened, say the Fatima Zahra cried upon knowing what also
50:48
Allah told her that will be for Salama cried.
50:51
You know Hassan Emir al Mummani cried say the Zainab Imam
50:57
Sajjah. Then I think just on the final
50:59
note will end the episode is the night of Imam Zainab Aberdeen
51:04
Ali Salam. The next night or two, many of
51:06
us will be attending Majalis once more, marking the shahada
51:10
of Zain al Abadeen. And what a beautiful name, Zain
51:14
al Abadeen, the adornment of worship.
51:18
And you look like Al Handela, like we have these role models,
51:22
we have these imams to look up to and the imams sell us Kunu
51:25
Zain al Lena, Zain al Abadeen, Kunu Zain al Lena be an
51:29
adornment for us. And inshallah, this is something
51:32
that we can live by. And if you are watching and so
51:36
now let us know in the comments. And if you want to see and
51:39
Kazaman again with me now with Ahmed, let me know as well.
51:42
You can hear me privately. Don't worry, I want all Ahmed,
51:44
it's inshallah. We'll see you again next week.
51:47
What's Salaam alaikum? What Ahmed Allahi?
