- 0:11Congratulations to you all on the birth anniversary of our
- 0:15awaited, our beloved Savior, and Mom and Maharaj, Allahu taala
- 0:19father, Jose Sharif Francis is this is a day where we all
- 0:22celebrate. We all have a reason to be happy
- 0:25and that reason is we are closer to meeting holy Imam and this is
- 0:28an opportunity for us not just to remember Over him and to
- 0:31return to learn more about him, but to connect with him to build
- 0:34that relationship with him. But we want to answer a few
- 0:36questions today is Imam, mehdi actually here.
- 0:39And if he is here, where is he? And if we know about the Imam,
- 0:43how come he doesn't know about us, or do we think he knows
- 0:45about us, what? What are the Dynamics there?
- 0:47Are we able to be a part of his army?
- 0:49There's so many questions to unfold today in sha Allah.
- 0:53But before we get into that said, I'll eat salaam alaikum.
- 1:05How you doing another week? Another episode?
- 1:08Yeah. Yeah, we're closer to her actual
- 1:10mobile. Yes.
- 1:11Couple of weeks. Now, how you feeling?
- 1:13I love feeling great. Um yeah, handle and we have a
- 1:15special guest, we do. Yeah, the reciter the amazing,
- 1:21the friend, the brother and Rhonda to Somalia, cool, no
- 1:24matter how to learn how to shake hands.
- 1:34Yeah, yeah, working. Yeah, in terms of yes, three
- 1:36days a week London, alhamdulillah, new opportunity,
- 1:38you know how he's finding us. What that is good London, but
- 1:42it's all about the buzz. You know it's about getting that
- 1:44coffee in the morning or not as you know.
- 1:47But yeah it's good - good, the hustle bustle and like I was
- 1:51saying earlier, you know, it kind of gets you into a routine
- 1:52you start early but you're more disciplined.
- 1:55You know, you will if you're working from home, two days
- 1:57before you can chill. These are working is discipline.
- 2:00You're like, you know, 11 p.m. you, in bed time, even though
- 2:02it's probably late for some people but, you know, but it up
- 2:05by six. It's good that you're going to
- 2:06get started. And I was watching this video
- 2:09that came up on Tick-Tock at some point where this guy like a
- 2:12motivational coach kind of thing and he was like, you know, what,
- 2:14he goes. I get two days of work done in
- 2:16one day and he goes, I break my day into two parts.
- 2:19First part is 6 to 12 in the morning. 6:00 a.m. to 12:00.
- 2:22And the second part is like maybe lunch after lunch 126 127.
- 2:26And because I get so productive because I start early And it was
- 2:29two days. So here's a whole week I'm done
- 2:30in three days and I'm chilling. So yeah, some.
- 2:33So that's like a proper Islamic way of structuring your day.
- 2:36Absolutely, absolutely. Yeah.
- 2:39Yeah, coming up as well. You get the ones who stay up and
- 2:46not have a nap and not, you know what I mean?
- 2:48Sleeping patterns all over the place, but this is like a Golden
- 2:52Rule, and you hear about all the time, getting your sleep in
- 2:55getting up early. Something I think we've got to
- 2:57do but on Bigger things and run. This is obviously last few weeks
- 3:02we've had handle of had, so many will audit and lot of reasons to
- 3:06celebrate. An officer shot.
- 3:07Ramadan coming up and I feel like 15 that shot.
- 3:10A bun is a nice kind of Connecting Point to run jump and
- 3:16shot a bunch of the holy month of Ramadan when it comes to my
- 3:19head. And so on how do you feel
- 3:20generally about this day? Like how do you see this day?
- 3:22Do you just look at as it will audit or no?
- 3:25I think 15 shot bun is firstly. Yes, but without it off Of the
- 3:29Imam of our time, and which is a massive day.
- 3:31Because, you know what, I think one thing we all struggle with,
- 3:34and it's just human conception, because if somebody's not there,
- 3:38someone's not there. In front of you, you won't like,
- 3:41you know, you won't like connect with them straight away.
- 3:43For example, the time of Russell O'Malley in Islam, they had
- 3:46people there that Alma. They had a question straight to
- 3:49him on, right straight at us with Allah.
- 3:50Whereas in Mom's not here, I can't see him.
- 3:52He's hit, we can't see him. So it's difficult to kind of for
- 3:57as human beings to connect. The literal level.
- 4:00So for connecting with him, you have to go to the bit of a
- 4:03different higher level. In terms of you look at it from
- 4:07a more spiritual point of view. Yeah.
- 4:09So in terms of what 15 sharpen means, yes, it's the will either
- 4:13of you are a mom of your time and you need to know that he's
- 4:15here. You need to celebrate, you know,
- 4:17a lot of times we see Christmas Even our people like, you know,
- 4:19Christmas tree, bring them into her.
- 4:21You know, that's definitely a topic for another the day.
- 4:23You know, we should do another podcast if you have a dressing
- 4:25room, but what I'm saying is, you know, we fought, that's the
- 4:33days. We should make special.
- 4:34We should bring celebration presence in our home and really
- 4:37make it as meeting point for our families for our children,
- 4:39because that's when they learn, right?
- 4:41So so yeah. So there's a lot of that but
- 4:43then also, you know that every day, you know, it's 15 shot
- 4:47button and like you said, it's a good connection to Shahar
- 4:49Ramadan where we are doing, what we do when it comes to a bar,
- 4:52don't you try to connect spiritually, just talking to the
- 4:55Imam, talking to a lot smaller. And when you do these kind of
- 4:57things, It prepares you for Jonathan because what it showed
- 5:00up more than takes you from beginning to the end.
- 5:02A spiritual level is changed. Yeah.
- 5:05Right from beginning to the end and this is what you do.
- 5:06And I think it's all part and parcel of it.
- 5:09So when you connect yourself with the Imam, when you start
- 5:11talking to the Imam, when you do anything, for the love of Allah
- 5:14subhanaw, taala, it's a good connection.
- 5:16So yeah, so it's a real either, but it's also a spiritual high
- 5:19that you feed off that leads you into shahada move on.
- 5:22Absolutely beautiful point. And I think the nice reminder
- 5:25being 15, shaaban and know the Vibes of the celebration.
- 5:28Yes. Yes.
- 5:29Of the Imam of our time is remembering that he's alive.
- 5:31Exactly. I love times like we know he's
- 5:34there in the back of our heads best.
- 5:36We need to appreciate that. He's a living amongst like us.
- 5:39You mentioned he's not a parent. Yeah.
- 5:41He's here on this Earth. Absolutely.
- 5:42Is not up there in the sky. Yes obviously you know there is
- 5:44some sort of like, where is the amount?
- 5:46They ask me, there's a parent but we can't see ya.
- 5:49So what's the difference between the amount being invisible or
- 5:52and they might being concealed? So you know, I mean concealed is
- 5:55the better term to use. Yeah, visible.
- 5:57Okay because we Don't see him. There are those who actually
- 6:00meet him, you know, things prevent us could be our sins.
- 6:03Yeah, our heart is not soft enough, you know there's certain
- 6:06things certain levels are certain status, you have to be
- 6:09on. You actually have some sort of
- 6:11understanding of knowing him because they say that your mom
- 6:15is here and some even say I've I know there's this one module
- 6:18quote, is that everyone and their lifetime has crossed
- 6:23paths. Yeah.
- 6:24Would that you Mom? But you just don't know.
- 6:26He is there one. You don't know how he looks you
- 6:28do. Now, he talks because they say
- 6:30that when he kind of reappears, everyone would say I recognized
- 6:33him and they say he has a day job by the way.
- 6:35Oh, so he wakes as well. So it's like chilling or studies
- 6:38actually but it's hidden from society.
- 6:42Yeah. And there's also I heard like a
- 6:44merger. I say that I mean this this
- 6:46might come across a little bit odd, but he said that whoever
- 6:48claims to have seen a mom, he's lying.
- 6:52Why? Because no one can truly say
- 6:55that they've met the Imam because you won't be able to
- 6:57recognize him. I mean, but then obviously you
- 6:59have these other things whether you're on the level to
- 7:01understand level to know that may come across different.
- 7:03But this is what is also being said that you know, you know you
- 7:07just won't recognize and you will see him you might meet him.
- 7:09He might even help you how many times are all ways of
- 7:11communicating? Absolutely.
- 7:12I think our level, a lot of us would have that inclination.
- 7:15Yeah. But I think especially the yeah
- 7:18Charles. Oh I mean that's the thing.
- 7:20I mean we, you know we live in this day and age and we are
- 7:23amongst the she of Imam mehdi as well.
- 7:25Fragile Sharif, and we have the opportunity to get there, so the
- 7:28potential is there, Where the opportunity is there for whom we
- 7:30have to develop that spiritual awareness, intellectual
- 7:32understanding of who is the Imam.
- 7:34Because, you know, you know, that, of course, I had either
- 7:36mumps article is llama says to die death without knowing the
- 7:39amount of your time is to, you know, was it died that ignorant
- 7:43person for example, Martha? Well, I sent and, you know, the
- 7:50concept of the Imam, being concealed or hidden is a mom and
- 7:54methi says himself. It's like a benefit of of the
- 7:57sun behind the clouds. In the sense that we benefit
- 8:00from the Sun and the sun's presence that we don't remember
- 8:02the sun everyday, we don't wake up thinking a while the sun's
- 8:05out today or the sun's hitting today, although we should be
- 8:07doing that with the Holy a mom. But sometimes we don't do it
- 8:11mmm-hmm. Yeah, we don't and I think this
- 8:14is again, when you know, there are other individuals who also
- 8:18mentioned like you know the question you asked is a mom
- 8:20here? Yeah that's that's that's
- 8:22important and there's a reason as to why you've asked that you
- 8:25want to start to get off the bat you watch that because there is
- 8:27things going around even with In our own communities saying that
- 8:30he's not around yet. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 8:32So as baffling is baffling, I mean, like, you know, the normal
- 8:35cycle of a mama is that, you know, once any mom dies or is
- 8:38about to die, he will hand over right through the command of
- 8:42Allah subhanaw taala that you are now the new I'm on, right if
- 8:45your mom's not here, where is he like as in Latimore personal
- 8:47escalation and when he passed away if you are a 12 hour yeah
- 8:51where is that 12th? As far?
- 8:53A good point. Right.
- 8:54So we're so who did Imam Hasan Askari pasta on to if there is
- 8:5712 and you Believe it mom is here.
- 9:01You are 11. Yeah, you believe an 11-5 are
- 9:04actually people would believe that.
- 9:05Yeah. Like that Mom, it's stopped
- 9:07after. Like, that's not stopped.
- 9:09I mean, what I'm just saying. The way the what they could to
- 9:10comment, they give is that in. Mom isn't born yet when he isn't
- 9:13around yet. So going by that logic, it
- 9:16doesn't make sense. Because if the wait, a moment
- 9:20works is like, when a mom want him on passes away, he will pass
- 9:22it on to the next Imam, whether it is their son, right?
- 9:25Anyone who has a nice career, they Salam, if Imam Mahdi is And
- 9:28around who didn't understand a security pass it on to, if you
- 9:31are a 12 hour, where is, where is where?
- 9:33What's going on? Like, that's weird like
- 9:35logically, it makes no sense. So, so, you know, it's so when
- 9:38people say that, you have to really look at this logically,
- 9:41it doesn't make any sense. So, therefore he is, and we have
- 9:43so many ideas and I think, you know, there are many ideas and I
- 9:46don't want to misquote that your mom here.
- 9:47I think it was Imam, ja'far al-sadiq on a salaam.
- 9:50What he said, someone asked him, you know, about my mom because
- 9:54the Elevate always spoke about this return.
- 9:56You know, they absolutely is coming well.
- 9:58Justice will fill this Earth and things like that.
- 10:00Someone actually asked him what if he doesn't come any mommy,
- 10:04the point, right? For example, they mom said if
- 10:08they're mad, he was not on this Earth.
- 10:10He's not a parent. You off the menu wasn't on this
- 10:12Earth for an hour or for a blink of an eye.
- 10:15The world will be destroyed follow its.
- 10:16Yeah. The point was given was
- 10:19referring back to establish kisser the entire existence of
- 10:24this world because of the element beta Epsilon.
- 10:27So if you remove one, I've lost it up.
- 10:29Yeah, so there's no please no point of living.
- 10:31Yeah, if they are not, there was the point.
- 10:33What is our purpose? I mean, it doesn't make sense
- 10:35for us to understand that since Adam to, for example, the mom
- 10:39Alaska Real Islam. There's always been a hard job.
- 10:42So, this point is not a doesn't make sense.
- 10:44Well, I have a meeting with Jeanne is is, is that specific
- 10:47example, that specific time, but the golden seal of iron Mi him
- 10:50was Salam is from one to the other.
- 10:52The will have a minimum means that will I have a mum and Medi
- 10:54is the way I live my Masonic cell?
- 10:56Well, I'm a mother like the People.
- 10:59So if we believe in the will have minimal mean, it's
- 11:02impossible to not believe in the will I ever mom and Maddie you
- 11:05know, and it goes for one and all, that's okay.
- 11:07This interesting. So like, you know, one thing
- 11:09that comes to my mind is like when someone makes such a bold
- 11:12statement that my Maddie's not around yet, what do you think
- 11:16goes through their head in order to make such a statement?
- 11:19What logic, are they coming out with?
- 11:21Have you? I don't know if you've heard.
- 11:22No. I mean, like a lot.
- 11:23So not do it, right? Right.
- 11:24So, but what's the logic? Like, where is it?
- 11:26Susie ways? Who's it going to be born from
- 11:27like performance? Which is It is so, like the and
- 11:29the Sunnah wal jamaa. Believe that Imam and Maddie
- 11:32will come from the lineage of a mom and her son.
- 11:35Alehissalaam. Okay.
- 11:36Not a mom, her saying, right? Because obviously that's that's
- 11:39what I want to rationed say, right.
- 11:40And that if I'm, if I'm not mistaken, I think is Majid's or
- 11:43something every 100 years Allah has a Khalifa, but some sort of
- 11:49spiritual leader who keeps the unbind check right.
- 11:52And I know this is an opinion within a son of Adam are now in
- 11:55my opinion. I don't understand that because
- 11:57even if you live a short life, That side of that era or those
- 12:00boundaries, you're not going to interact.
- 12:01All come across that Majed, they do if that's what it's called, I
- 12:04believe. But even beyond that, like the
- 12:07benefit, for example, one may gain from the Imam.
- 12:10We have to understand that this is not the first time in
- 12:12history, where we don't have access to the it.
- 12:13Mum, mum will cover my list. I was in prison for 30 plus
- 12:16years - article, Islam had over 100,000 students.
- 12:19In all of them had access to the Imam directly.
- 12:21If a mom, and if Imam, Ali, Al Islam was living today in a Jeff
- 12:25and we're sitting here at London might be able to go on his
- 12:27website for example. Yeah, but not all of us would
- 12:29have the opportunity to visit with.
- 12:31We can't visit our merger all the time.
- 12:33Do you think we'll be able to exercise my mom in my face to
- 12:35face? Yeah.
- 12:35Yeah. Chet access to the Imam is not
- 12:41physical Union. Is that?
- 12:43It doesn't need to. Yes, always a spiritual and if
- 12:45we can sort of keep going, but if we can access them on her
- 12:48saying, every year, we connect with the Imam Beyond 2000, like
- 12:52we feel it. And we like to the point where
- 12:54we'll give our lives for the whole your mom, and he lived so
- 12:56many years ago and we're visualizing an Then his story in
- 12:59his, you know, everything that happened and we can connect with
- 13:02him, why can't we connect with a living, a mom who's aware of us
- 13:06and who's interacting us, you know?
- 13:07I mean, I'm just going to expand on that.
- 13:09But she also very interesting. Interesting question.
- 13:11And I remember the point yes, we're, you know, our brothers
- 13:14from Henderson was Jamaica, they asked she a scholar and they
- 13:18said, for example, we don't believe in this concept that,
- 13:21you know, we are created because of the a debate Salam.
- 13:25And so, the argument was in the Quran, Allah says, I Created
- 13:29human and June to worship. Yeah, so that's our reason for
- 13:33being here. Yeah.
- 13:34Whereas the, I'm going to paraphrase and the scholar
- 13:37responded, you go. So, you prove the point of
- 13:39Cassatt and for example, they'll be no see, no ocean.
- 13:42No, sir, I accept your Etc, but it was like, when Allah said, I
- 13:46created you to what the the gin and the human to worship me, I
- 13:50was the rule of you being here. Hmm.
- 13:52Well, the reason for you being creative correct, correct?
- 13:54Yeah, absolutely. It's a bigger point, but I'm
- 13:56just paraphrasing and just reminding me.
- 13:58Point that yeah yeah, yeah. I think there's a lot to think
- 14:01about with this but a main question, obviously we need to
- 14:04ask ourself and I think this is my own opinion but sometimes we
- 14:09see a mom of the métis as as a song really bad but we might see
- 14:13the holy Imam as an add-on to our to show you and the sense
- 14:16that we believe in Quran. And I can debate, we believe in
- 14:20the story of the MBR, we believe in the the story of you haven't
- 14:22been to the Muslim and the ending.
- 14:23Like, oh yeah. And by the way, there's no way
- 14:25to the moment. Yeah, but the thing and we add
- 14:27to our father Jack. The end of the homogeneous
- 14:30Oliver. But what we tend to do sometimes
- 14:32is linked the to our understanding of Imam, mehdi
- 14:35should be Centric to our understanding of religion at
- 14:38large current. You see what I mean?
- 14:39If we live our day-to-day life following the rules of a mudra,
- 14:42how I do will look how I eat my food, how I do this, how do that
- 14:46then? Even more.
- 14:47So we should live our daily lives.
- 14:48By the understanding of we have of the Holy.
- 14:50See Mom. That's true, in my opinion.
- 14:51So our understanding for example of got on and of what happened
- 14:56with the previous in Mom's alaikum, Salaam.
- 14:58Is symbiotic with the current in mom, she saw what I mean.
- 15:02So there's so many to farcical in the Quran of the Holy Quran,
- 15:07which might be relevant, for example, to Mom and Matthew, I
- 15:09read something today which talked about, and I do remember
- 15:11the verse which talked about specific eye and hung up on
- 15:15where one of the more faster said that this I is specifying
- 15:20the people of, Sofia knee, you know, Sophia news obviously
- 15:23prophesized to be the enemy of the Imam and how their army will
- 15:26be swallowed by the earth when they're heading.
- 15:28It's cool for. If I'm not mistaken to attack
- 15:30the Imam and I'm thinking that's crazy like there's a tough.
- 15:33See it about something that's gonna happen in the future.
- 15:35Yeah, it's not even at the present.
- 15:37So if we don't understand the Quran, we want Stanley, your
- 15:39mom. And if we don't understand what
- 15:40the Imam is and what he will be, we're not something wrong.
- 15:44Yeah, it's a link and this is it.
- 15:45This is this is the winner rasulullah leaves and it's a
- 15:50Hadith we've heard time and time again.
- 15:51He said there are two things too weighty things and I think this
- 15:55is something we all we forget the yeah, we was.
- 15:57There's a comparison always. That you know the Artisan our
- 15:59brothers they are so focused on the Quran and they do a
- 16:03phenomenal job with that by the way you know run right credit to
- 16:07them absolutely you know where is on our side we love the
- 16:11helmet and Islam so much so sometimes and I'm talking about
- 16:14myself as well. We let the Quran slip away a
- 16:17little bit. You know we have in our in our
- 16:19communities we are though is that sometimes unfortunately we
- 16:22leave the Quran from a Ramadan to Ramadan and it's sad.
- 16:26It's sad because we don't realize, you know, when
- 16:28rasulullah, Allah said these are too weighty things.
- 16:30And rasulullah ain't like me or you ain't he's not like just
- 16:33another guy, like he's rasool Allah.
- 16:34The most perfect man on this earth when he says something.
- 16:37Huh. When he says anything anything,
- 16:40any word is waiting for him. So if he has given you a Hadith
- 16:43and it's a Hadith is like an instruction, this instruction,
- 16:45I've left you too weighty things.
- 16:47These two go hand in hand, but just that Allah saying it's from
- 16:51what I exactly. Alright.
- 16:52From Allah, you don't leave them or you will go straight, right?
- 16:55Absolutely and we see that, you know, sometimes even in an hour
- 16:58Inertia Community. There are individuals who, you
- 17:02know, Focus so much on the as I.E and the Halibut.
- 17:05Yeah. And then, they forget what you
- 17:07bought and it happens. I've seen it like, you know,
- 17:08I've gone to some senses to recite at and it's past selected
- 17:13Margaret and if the program carries on and you like bro
- 17:15what's going on? Hmm you know and then it's up to
- 17:18you then and it's the hardest thing to make a stand and be
- 17:20like I'm going for solar and you have to do that to teach
- 17:24individuals and you know to kind of just.
- 17:26But yeah I mean the point being that, you know, We need to, like
- 17:29you said, when rasulullah says, I'm leaving too weighty things,
- 17:32it is so important. And even if it's one, I add a,
- 17:37what I did literally after the whole do one, I wonder up in
- 17:40that's it and you're done. But, and then, you know, once
- 17:43you start reading even without translating with that meaning,
- 17:45you'll get to a stage where you would like, actually, I need to
- 17:48know what I'm reading. You know, a lot smarter.
- 17:50I'll give you little freak. The now you're doing this,
- 17:52you've taken that step first step, I will now guide.
- 17:55You Allah says, in the Quran, he will guide those who he wants to
- 17:57guide. We'll leave those who have gone,
- 18:00astray, God forbid. We are part of those who have
- 18:02gone astray, right? But in order to do in order to
- 18:04have a lot about Allah's guidance, we should always ask
- 18:07it from him. Number one, and we should also
- 18:09take active steps to get that guidance.
- 18:11You know, we need to show a lot smarter, I like, you know, I'm
- 18:13making an effort, right? We say, you know, when if you
- 18:16want though, I like my medicine you got to do as well.
- 18:18Like you know it's not you can't just do it on its own and accept
- 18:21a oh my God. Yeah you know, I've got this
- 18:23illness, he Allah. You know, give me shit.
- 18:25Fuck. Yeah.
- 18:26And you know what? No, I'm not saying it's not
- 18:27possible. Of course, a lot.
- 18:28For Tyler. Do you know couldn't find Coon
- 18:30but logically, you need to go, get your medicine, go to the
- 18:33doctor, you have to bro. It's one of those things and so
- 18:35it and the same thing. It works in the same way.
- 18:37You know, I was interested in what he talks about the holy
- 18:40prophet and obviously the Hadith.
- 18:41And obviously there's ways in which the holy prophet may be
- 18:44indirectly prophesize, the Imam, and sometimes directly, I have
- 18:48to correct myself earlier. I think I said 'mom, I saw that
- 18:50I said that this like the sun behind the clouds, actually was
- 18:52only Prophet said that I've just checked and beyond that as well.
- 18:55There's more methodical Islam did say.
- 18:58He said that one of his companions said to the Imam, he
- 19:02said, how we, actually how we going to know their mum, how we
- 19:05going to stay close to the Imam said, so mom and melody
- 19:07specifically. So, Mom sadaqah Islam says, if
- 19:10you live to that time, where you see the occultation of the all
- 19:13your mum, which obviously prophesizing the occultation,
- 19:15then commit, to reading this Dart and then the amount of
- 19:18tells this guy that the other companion says, oh, and last
- 19:21Point either make me aware of your Divine self.
- 19:23If you do not make me aware of yourself, I will not be aware of
- 19:26your Prophet. Allah make me aware of Of your
- 19:28profit. Because if you do not make me
- 19:30aware of your Prophet, the messenger.
- 19:31I will not be aware of your hunger.
- 19:33Your proof Allah. If you are not making me aware
- 19:36of your hotel, your Imam, I will deviate from the religion of
- 19:40guidance, which is what, if we don't understand, Allah, we want
- 19:43to stand the prophet one stand there in mom and we understand
- 19:45the Mandy sense and then we will deviate, you know.
- 19:48So how do we then understand the amount?
- 19:50Because this is the ultimate question, right?
- 19:51Like with the previous imams. So tricky, quite as a biography.
- 19:55Yeah, that's biography. There's Messiah.
- 19:57Is this father? And there's all these different
- 19:59things and moment Maddie, he wanted to labor at what young
- 20:03age is what was it? 7/10 some point, five, five.
- 20:07And then 69 audios, he was like a to Sakura and then obviously
- 20:11is able to Coppola has been over 1100 years or whatever.
- 20:13It's been. How do we then understand the
- 20:15amount with such a short span of life.
- 20:19It's interesting, like it's a very, very hard question.
- 20:21I think like, you know, as like the two of you been pulling out
- 20:25Hadith in respect of a mom and Maddie that's one way of, you
- 20:29know, believing it. Like you said, if you understand
- 20:30a lot about the other, you understand your profit, you
- 20:33understand a moment. And the moment, you know, like
- 20:35an every word of Allah I've ever heard of rasulallah every
- 20:38wonderful, Imam, should be something that's ingrained in
- 20:40our heart, embedded in our for Nadine.
- 20:42It's exactly. Exactly.
- 20:44So, whatever they say. Now, what they say, a lot of the
- 20:46times is to do with Imam Mahdi as a lot out of her.
- 20:48I assure you, as you said your quotation and you need to take
- 20:51that as gospel, right? Sometimes I can religion.
- 20:54You know, we are encouraged to ask questions.
- 20:56Ask, why why'd you do this? Why'd you do this sometimes you
- 20:59need to follow you. Blindly you have to sometimes
- 21:02things are so uncomprehensible. Okay?
- 21:05For example, why is it monster have to put your nose on this
- 21:08Edge there and the on the turbo as well.
- 21:10It's most a right to why there's not gonna be any scientific
- 21:13explanation for that. You just have to be like, okay,
- 21:15it's mr. Hub, I'll do it.
- 21:16I'll find out in sha Allah. And the whales are taken out my
- 21:19I will then find out but, you know, I'm just, this is one of
- 21:21those things. So then, when I will better,
- 21:22listen, I'm say about my macd gospel.
- 21:25To believe it. You have to because of your love
- 21:28for the Elevate. Not just, you know, just doing.
- 21:30Oh yeah. Because next man said it, no,
- 21:31no, these aren't normal people. These are people, you claim like
- 21:35you said these like a mantra saying is you claim to go and
- 21:38cry for him cry for Centre Zahra.
- 21:40Say there's a nap in the tragedy and cry for the actual bait
- 21:42celebrate their. But you are so connected to
- 21:45these people. You will believe anything.
- 21:47They say, think of it this way, you have a teacher or you have
- 21:50take your father, for example, Your Role Model, he would say
- 21:53any, do you know you respect him like crazy, you see them, you go
- 21:56nuts, they say anything. You'll be like, amazing.
- 21:59I'll do it. I don't care.
- 22:00I don't care what happens. I'll do trust them.
- 22:02Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
- 22:03If you trust the elevator listener, we will trust what
- 22:05they say. What they say is a moment he's
- 22:06gonna come okay, number one. So that's how you build that
- 22:09connection because you're right, that five years, like there's
- 22:12not much this, there is history in terms of, you know.
- 22:14Okay. You know, we see that At in, you
- 22:17know, where he disappeared and, you know, his short life when he
- 22:21was, you know, when he recited the selector janazah and you
- 22:24know, for his father, things like this, but it's not
- 22:27necessarily compared to the history.
- 22:28We have had a debate where we connect like like a huge amount.
- 22:32This is maybe even die for our small minds, not enough and so
- 22:36we need other vehicles to help us connect, right?
- 22:40And that's why we have the Hadith.
- 22:41That's why we have the animal as well.
- 22:43Mr. Seiler 40 Eduardo was so, for example, Do it. 42 days,
- 22:47consecutively you meet him and when you meet him, you may not
- 22:50even know you've met him, but you have met him, you know, one
- 22:52of those things. So I think you have to use
- 22:54vehicles to help our small minds to connect with them on body as
- 22:58a lot of furniture show you guys.
- 22:59I think it's difficult just to ultimately we need to improve
- 23:02our relationship with him. Right?
- 23:04How do we do that? Say, what's that story?
- 23:06Which one of the 40 0 star? Sure.
- 23:09On that there's this the, you know, you know, I mentioned the
- 23:1340.2 Russell on Tuesday. Remember, I mean, we're talking
- 23:16about For teaser to our children.
- 23:17The best it's working at all. Things related to I told him our
- 23:20journalism, the father sits down here.
- 23:22What's the story? I can't, I can't recall it fully
- 23:25right now, obviously. No, I can't Chavez if you know,
- 23:28it's a it's a it's a story we read which is the father said,
- 23:34Mohammed. Barker assist on your father.
- 23:35Said, only sistani who was in this was at the time, for
- 23:42example, of the shot of it on. Okay?
- 23:45So he wasn't around at the time. I'm, and If I'm not mistaken the
- 23:51the the Sade was reciting soda. Ash wood or consecutively for
- 23:5540,000 it's well Booker and on the 40th Thursday he was
- 23:58reciting in the shrine and he looked up and he saw a light
- 24:00color allows for my Allah say finished is Yara, he went and
- 24:04goes to check out what's happening.
- 24:06There's people in the house or whatever.
- 24:09She's people crowding around, he gives condolences to the family
- 24:12and then people go. And then he sees one man, and
- 24:15the man comes up to me, he recognizes this to be the Imam,
- 24:18told the Okay. But you continue, yeah, he sure
- 24:21seemed like a way.
- 24:39And there was this moment where he saw the Imam and he was like,
- 24:44surprised your mom doing here and turned out to be The lady
- 24:49who passed away she was anticipating and living her
- 24:52life. As of though, she will live her
- 24:55life during the return of the involved.
- 24:57So emphasizes on the point of having active into R sense, and
- 25:02beyond that as well, the Imam said to the side of the story,
- 25:05he said, you do not need to wait for you to meet me.
- 25:10He goes this lady in the seven-year period, where the
- 25:13hijab was, but was banned Kashmir.
- 25:16Hijab is called that time. Their mom said that this lady
- 25:20did not leave her house was seven years, she didn't want to
- 25:22expose herself. So, I come to me her.
- 25:24She doesn't come to meet her were amazing and Mild.
- 25:27Imagine I just knew in my mind, this is just Madness honesty.
- 25:31And even if we don't like know the amount, we don't have that
- 25:33we don't have the opportunity to meet him.
- 25:35But last month, others, you know, giving us the opportunity
- 25:38to get to know him at least. Right.
- 25:40Right. You know, I like it's a blessing
- 25:42to call us our share of Imam Ali, Al Islam, or sure she has a
- 25:45mother saying so what advice on what I do.
- 25:47But to be caught, Of Mattie is is like a an honours a badge of
- 25:52honor, lot of fun enjoy. Yeah.
- 25:54He talks about how the hardest time will be the show of the
- 25:56Maddie and we know that Hadith about the black hole and the
- 26:00hand and how it will burn if I'm not mistaken, says it will be
- 26:04the being a sure that occultation of the mom will be
- 26:06like holding a hot black hole in your hand, the palm of your hand
- 26:09gripping it. Like that's how hard it will be
- 26:11to be a shirt to knee well, so it's just like mind-blowing
- 26:15think about? Yeah, it's hard.
- 26:16Yeah, we can't see the amount. We don't have much.
- 26:18History on it, but we like you said, see it as well.
- 26:21Like and in one we trust that a debate and we know what they've
- 26:25told us and we know that there is Allah has given us a balance
- 26:29in this in this Dunya, you know, and there will always be
- 26:31justice, justice will prevail. Absolutely.
- 26:33So there has to be a final conclusion to all the evil we
- 26:37see and all the oppression we see.
- 26:40So it's just like a, you know, some might make it like into a
- 26:44fantasy story and people laugh at it and so on.
- 26:46But I think we have a I was telling my daddy was To my
- 26:49daddy's day and I told him, I said, yeah, we're a minority,
- 26:53like yeah, okay, with a smaller number but we have an end goal.
- 26:57I need like, we are born into a mud Hub and we know why we're
- 26:59born into the mother. And we know why we pray like
- 27:02this. And we know why would you put a
- 27:03note in Salah and all these things?
- 27:04Like some other people may not know that.
- 27:06For example, they may be bullied, her mother, not know
- 27:08what might have the until they're four years old.
- 27:10There's a yeah, but we know that you might politically differ
- 27:14with another sheer. Follow a different major live in
- 27:16a different country, different with laws, but When it comes to
- 27:19religion, if Imam Husain Shrine, is that threat.
- 27:23Say there's a lamb fries, that threat doesn't matter who you
- 27:25follow me. Yeah, put your put stand up, get
- 27:28ready. Defend you in my own City?
- 27:29And when a man with the magic comes in sha, Allah, we are
- 27:31amongst those who will stand up and defend.
- 27:33Like that's something that we have, you know, they say the
- 27:35show are like seeds, you plant them in the ground to try and
- 27:37beerus will grow Huger. Yeah, it's him.
- 27:41That the passion that we've got, which reason it's then begs the
- 27:43question. Like, as you say, you know,
- 27:45inshallah we will be there to support our Imam.
- 27:48About Bobby ready. You know this it's something
- 27:51that's a really deep and important question.
- 27:54It's not a case of yeah. Yeah.
- 27:55I'll be ready. Yeah.
- 27:56I'll pick up a gun ain't like that.
- 27:58Hey now you have to be back. Are you ready?
- 28:01Are you like spiritually? Let ready?
- 28:03It's not just going to be a case of yeah you know, right now it's
- 28:05easy to say, even you said, yeah, you know what, when Imam
- 28:07Hussain said has been noted in uncertain, I would have gone.
- 28:10Yeah. What would you that actually
- 28:11would you have gone? Or would you be?
- 28:13Like, I've got wake up at 7 a.m. to go London for my job
- 28:16tomorrow? Yeah, I mean Like you like and
- 28:19way, but that's the spiritual of 250.
- 28:21Yeah, at all, at all, you know, when Mr. St.
- 28:24Anne's, that kinda love and you stay.
- 28:25That's what you have to be right.
- 28:27That's where you have to be like, company in order.
- 28:29Yeah, exactly. It's not a joke in some sense.
- 28:32That's kind of where we are now, right?
- 28:34That's far. Clear the light is off.
- 28:36We can't see the Imam, the same way, Mom's cake, pans can see
- 28:38him. Absolutely.
- 28:41So we have the choice that we leave the amount.
- 28:42We stay with the exact same situation.
- 28:45We just have a longer time. Yeah, yeah.
- 28:47What And that's the tough part. But would you do to get ready?
- 28:51How do you, how do you prepare for his arrival?
- 28:55So dangerous Quest is is but sometimes, yeah, I feel ashamed.
- 29:00Not knowing. Yeah, I mean and, and this is
- 29:02something that we all need to learn and we all need to, you
- 29:04know, develop together. And this is why, for example,
- 29:07when we, when we there is modulus in the mosque, you know,
- 29:10I know a lot of people know, a lot of people, they like, I'm
- 29:12chilling at home. I watch at home, be honest.
- 29:15You're going to be at home in your pjs.
- 29:17Yeah. You be watching it and the TV or
- 29:20the module is going to be background noise.
- 29:21You're going to be on your phone.
- 29:23Checking your Instagram. That let's be honest.
- 29:24Let's be honest here if you are there in person in the modular
- 29:28check and around. That's what I like Anyway,
- 29:38importantly. So you know, when you go to
- 29:40merge this, when you go, and so what we need to do, number one
- 29:44is encourage our people. Our own people to go too much.
- 29:47This, you know what? Quinn covid-19 came, yes.
- 29:49We were taken out of the mosque's understandably for
- 29:52health reasons. Fine.
- 29:53No problem. But it's not an Used to stay at
- 29:55home. People have taken it as in
- 29:57massive, excuse that. Okay, I'm clutching at home.
- 29:59It was fine and then they'll use an excuse.
- 30:01I don't to get covid, bro. Listen, everyone's vaccinated
- 30:03three times, chill yeah just go it's fine.
- 30:05When you go to mosque and you listen to the emitter Milano,
- 30:08the speaker is when you gain that knowledge and they're
- 30:11telling you how to prepare for a mom.
- 30:13Not, they won't tell you today's lectures, we had to prepare for
- 30:15a mom, but all the advice you get off the numerator guidance
- 30:18guidance. You don't know, any, I don't
- 30:20know. Anything I go too much is to
- 30:21learn because I'm thick. I realize that.
- 30:23Yeah, we don't know. Nothing at all the matter how
- 30:27much? We think we know there are
- 30:28people who studied for years more than we have.
- 30:31Yeah. Right.
- 30:31And we had it's our duty to gain knowledge.
- 30:33Right? Knowledge is power.
- 30:35What is my money time? Effort and work and dedication
- 30:43and service to this religion just for us to know fucking
- 30:45runic and it's a very connected Imam, mehdi exact, how we have
- 30:50to sort of little use like some help.
- 30:55No, you're right and you know it's a shame nowadays.
- 30:56You have people when they're talking about Ayatollah sistani,
- 30:59right? You have to give that name.
- 31:00I had to lie. Respect fact that that man has
- 31:04studied his life and Islam and people then, you know, refer to
- 31:09him as just by his last name. Oh, you know, you know that guy
- 31:12I disrespect you would even call your teacher off my body.
- 31:16Height in mind, is ridiculous. Yeah.
- 31:21But how bad it, but it's ridiculous and you know, and
- 31:23sometimes people even talk about About them.
- 31:25Derogatory derogatorily. Yeah.
- 31:27But it's so bad and you know, it's probably not crazy like we
- 31:30could be teenagers in the UK would know nothing about
- 31:33religion apparently without. Oh yeah.
- 31:35Marja executed by his last name is that this?
- 31:38That guys are way smarter something.
- 31:39Yeah, and they love what they do marja or he's in told us that to
- 31:53follow that sooner. Obviously, we had before he
- 31:56started this concept, of course, nobody, absolutely nobody and
- 32:02all the others. Basically, the last were killed
- 32:05and I forget his name. I think it's three or four days
- 32:09before he passed away. As we know Mom wrote him a
- 32:12letter. Hmm.
- 32:14And he said I'm going to pass away.
- 32:16I've gotta is a so you're going to pass away.
- 32:18I'm going to enter my labor to the kabbala, my lengthened
- 32:21occultation and he said tell the Believers in my absence To
- 32:24follow those with knowledge than it's the Sunnah of the Shia of a
- 32:29midi to follow the scholars and those with knowledge and like
- 32:34you saying that the connection that someone who is at high
- 32:38spiritual level will have with the imams greater than ours.
- 32:40Hmm, you'd imagine. Absolutely.
- 32:41So when the question comes, what how do we know I'm on?
- 32:43How do we get to normal, when you reach heightened level of
- 32:46spiritual awareness, and your human intellect is growing, you
- 32:50find ailments to a spiritual illness and so on, we start
- 32:53asking the question. Is the amount will be absent or
- 32:56am I like am I waiting for the imams?
- 32:58He wait for me son because if it Momma Dee this is sorry.
- 33:01I'm going to mention something. This popped popped in my mind, a
- 33:04mom and a model Sadiq alehissalaam was alive in that
- 33:09period between the Romanians and the Abbasid, some people would
- 33:12say why don't you raise up take, what's rightfully yours?
- 33:14Yeah, I need like this is not a bomb a it's a collapsing and
- 33:17moms have come with me outside. He walked with this guy, they
- 33:20walked past a farm with donkeys, a guy and a young boy had seven
- 33:23donkeys, your mom Goes. If if I had his money, many
- 33:26followers as this boy has donkeys, it would be wise of me
- 33:29to take laughs. Wow, Imam.
- 33:31As-sadiq says he didn't have seven followers and Mom at her
- 33:33saying the minute he got 72. He did what he needed to do.
- 33:37Now, if we're talking about crew members waiting for us sads,
- 33:41exact, if it Mom and ladies waiting for at least 313 as we
- 33:44say, well, then we've got a lot of work to do.
- 33:47Yeah, like 30,000 cool, friends called the Imam.
- 33:49Hmm. But night 29,000, for example,
- 33:52I'm talking symbolically metaphorically, 29,000 of Were
- 33:56not real, okay? They were talking maybe in the
- 33:59hype and in there. So, you know, like there's
- 34:01there's a communal level of enthusiasm, but when push comes
- 34:04to shove, they're not feeling it.
- 34:05And then, of course, many of them.
- 34:07I'm not, I said 29,000 as a metaphor, but many of them were
- 34:11killed, many of them, women were imprisoned, but the minority of
- 34:14those who got to fight with your mom.
- 34:15Don't forget some of the met the Imam just days before hold of
- 34:19them changed Allegiance than I thought.
- 34:21What happened was a Christian? Yeah, he met the Imam on the
- 34:24way. Like, these are it just goes to
- 34:26show that you firstly, you don't need to be.
- 34:28If you live, you born in you live, 70 years ago, our
- 34:30mysterious inside. But bro, no one doesn't care.
- 34:33It doesn't matter. Like you can you can be a chef
- 34:35of 500 years and not know you're a mom or you can have that
- 34:38moment of epiphany exemption, it clicks in your mind.
- 34:42You're like you know what there's Huck on this button and
- 34:44I need to be on the right side. So I just I just want saying
- 34:47like we did with the amount of our time.
- 34:49If we understand the previous imams and what they went through
- 34:51and their stories, we might understand more about why
- 34:54Matthew will do what he'll do. I'm excited.
- 34:57You know you mentioned 313. Yeah.
- 34:59And I remembered How likely we take that.
- 35:01Yeah, we also call we wish we were there. 31.
- 35:04Yeah. I'll send it to you for free one
- 35:06for ya making life Tick Tock by. Oh yeah.
- 35:11It's about trying to attain that position of being under his
- 35:15command. Just imagine Allah and it's
- 35:19something on the in sha Allah will all have the opportunity to
- 35:21do. That means we have to work on
- 35:23them. Yeah we have to do something.
- 35:24I think I just sit down. What will the world be like to
- 35:27think when they mom comes. So I think, I mean, if the Imam
- 35:30say, for example, were to appear tomorrow, I think we'd all be
- 35:32shook. We're ready.
- 35:34We ain't got a clue, a clue if that announcement comes in Mom's
- 35:38here, you be like, man, I'm done anything.
- 35:41Mmm, I haven't prepped, I haven't like a like, nothing.
- 35:45How can you face the amount of thing?
- 35:46When you go, for example, when you're to take to your go to
- 35:49your school, and your learning about something and teach it as
- 35:52a pop quiz, this pop quiz determines, if you Fail School
- 35:55completely or nothing. You baffled, I've hand-picked, I
- 35:59don't know anything. But what you meant to do at
- 36:01school is you meant to constantly revised slowly gain
- 36:04knowledge. Be prepped when you rent a pop
- 36:06quiz comes up, you're chilling. That's literally the same
- 36:10analogy. Now, anyone can talk more, we
- 36:13ain't no. And then if you're scared any
- 36:14mom comes, you know, you ain't ready, you have not done
- 36:17anything and then literally I'm prepping for my mom's not a joke
- 36:21prepping for the. Did you just you know, shouting
- 36:22it'll automatically every day. So Annalise good, it's good but
- 36:26just lip service is not enough. Most efficient it's not enough
- 36:29and if any even if we connect during that Dar.
- 36:31Yeah. 30 seconds of connection with your mom on a daily basis
- 36:34or on a weekly basis for. So if you go to the mosque or
- 36:36whatever or you know if you go it's not sufficient.
- 36:39Yeah if you go it's not sufficient.
- 36:41No but their mom when he comes Charlotte with ready.
- 36:44We're there but say, do you mentioned a point before the
- 36:47podcast? Yeah we spoke about people think
- 36:49I'm like oh yeah yeah and I think I had grown up as One
- 36:55know, because I was a misfit information but that's just, I
- 36:58think how they drew the Imam to us I was returning is that when
- 37:02he comes back, he's gonna pretty much start wars.
- 37:06Yeah, you know, brings God's God's law in his vast Earth but
- 37:09it's more than that. And the return of the Imam is
- 37:12not about, for example, forcing people to accept like the last
- 37:15not that it's not about, you know, for example, I'm coming
- 37:18back with, I'm here to rule. Yeah, that's, he's coming back.
- 37:24To sort out the mess the world. Yeah, the other mess.
- 37:28The whole world is facing even today.
- 37:30And yesterday, I had the conversation briefly, it's very
- 37:32off topic, but someone who's five years old was shy to wear
- 37:37shorts, front of our uncle. Mmm-hmm as she was shy and you
- 37:41had one person, say, now that song called that's fine and then
- 37:44the other person was like, no, this is a good thing.
- 37:46Yeah, it was a reminder, that if we live in this world, you know,
- 37:50there's confusion between those who raised you, this is okay.
- 37:53Yeah, hiya something good. Yeah, the world is in a mess
- 37:57back to my point is that it's more than him coming back to,
- 38:01you know, for example, install God's laws on this Earth, it's
- 38:05removing Injustice. Wherever you find, you know,
- 38:09hunger, profit poverty, will bring Prosperity nicely wherever
- 38:13you find, for example, you know, whether it's Injustice will
- 38:16bring Justice wherever, for example, you know, we all have
- 38:19this misconceptions that is going to come and, you know,
- 38:22kill everyone. He's going to come and, you
- 38:25know, try and have beef with the Christians and the Jews along
- 38:30with this more than that. Because I said, we'll be able to
- 38:31find it. Yeah.
- 38:33And that would be a cause for conversion of all the
- 38:35Christians. Yes.
- 38:36So it's more of a joyous return, right?
- 38:38Rather than I scary. Yeah, exactly.
- 38:40If we change that mindset, we have.
- 38:43I think would want to know more. Yeah, I think.
- 38:46But then it will be scared. Okay.
- 38:47Maybe we don't want them to really return.
- 38:49Yeah, that's a question. We should really.
- 38:50Are we should we should be in order to be and make it dries.
- 38:53We need to be in a position where we are a bit prepped.
- 38:57You would you'd have to be in order to like genuinely speaking
- 39:00deep down if you're not prepared for it, you're going to be
- 39:02scared for death as well. Yeah.
- 39:04By we scared of death. How many times did you say dead?
- 39:06It's nice because it's you're going back to your Lord but
- 39:09you're going to the next phase of your life.
- 39:10You know, when you mention, huh? If a moment you step here
- 39:13tomorrow, I'll be ready? Well I thought of death.
- 39:16Yeah it was like yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 39:18Because it's similar in the sense that is preparation.
- 39:23This world this world we've been put on this Earth to prepare as
- 39:26only is prepare for the next life and if you're scared of
- 39:30death that you're not doing something, rather similar
- 39:32concept like like you know you hear about death and Hadith you
- 39:36hear about. Am I met in Hadith?
- 39:37That is going to come to you in the future but you've never
- 39:39experienced it. I'm on my head is going to come
- 39:41to you the future of never experienced, so we're relying on
- 39:44hearsay. So we like to say we got a
- 39:46trust, what we know and try to we've been told by that, this is
- 39:49what's going to be like, use your time wisely, you know, and
- 39:52it's a very similar concept. Depth and the end of the day, I
- 39:55was something else. I was going to mention, I
- 39:56completely forgot. It will come.
- 39:58You get all those people who always ask, what are the signs
- 40:01of his return? Yeah you guys knowing.
- 40:05Yeah I mean there's so there's so many I think that the most
- 40:08interesting I think is the concept or the gel if we will
- 40:13you are they that is so many ideas of the gel actually being
- 40:17an actual person with one eye, you know, coming and taking
- 40:20everybody astray. But I think, you know, when you
- 40:23apply logic It's difficult organizations.
- 40:25Yeah, so I mean, if you really think I people that that easily
- 40:30fooled by an individual, who will be with one eye, and we
- 40:33would like, all come with me. I'm amazing, they'll be like,
- 40:35you look a bit creepy, bro. Like, you know, I'm going to
- 40:38take my distance. Show me where, as you know, I
- 40:41think if you look at it, like you said more of an
- 40:42organization, more of a movement of some sort of a mentality.
- 40:46And now if you look like and I think some Scholars look at it
- 40:49as like what the Western culture is right now.
- 40:52You know, from if you look at what was not Okay, 10. 15 years
- 40:55ago, absolutely was not okay, 10, 15 years ago, for example,
- 40:58look at lgbtq, for example. Yeah, it was never talked about
- 41:02openly. Now, every Netflix show has a
- 41:04character of that nature, seriously.
- 41:07And, and, you know, and because now we will watch Netflix and
- 41:10subliminally. We're be like, okay, it's okay,
- 41:12it's okay. Now you go to speak when I'm at
- 41:14one of our youth from our community, we say that I would
- 41:17you think, you know, if somebody who is of that nature, they do
- 41:21their own thing. You know.
- 41:22And I know I don't judge them, whatever.
- 41:23The base wrong like we have to know that that is wrong, we
- 41:28don't judge them in the sense that oh, you know, this
- 41:30positive, he's a bad guy but you need to know your principal
- 41:35right foundation. Absolutely.
- 41:38And that's how do you feel about about the time of the Imam or
- 41:42they put it towards the coming of the Imam?
- 41:44There will be confusions her arm becomes Halal, right?
- 41:48And it's very similar and you talk about that concept and the
- 41:52concept of men wearing with women's clothes.
- 41:54That's also the idea the concept of Music being in your pockets.
- 41:57If you thought about is, how was it being a Pockets?
- 41:59Broke one of these, get anything in the world being a woman is
- 42:02backwards for because yeah. There's obviously like there's
- 42:08prophesized events that will take this.
- 42:10Like for example, the rise of the rise of Sofia need the rise
- 42:13of course on the yamani and yamani, of course, who we
- 42:15believe is the Ally of the Holy? See, Mom, cool people towards
- 42:19his Aid. The lessons that he had been
- 42:21killed at the Kaaba. All of these things are true.
- 42:23Being blown all of these things. You know, we're told about
- 42:26events events, but the concept of condition of society I think
- 42:30is maybe more prevalent. Yeah, example.
- 42:33We talked about the economic Injustice in the world and
- 42:36political disparities between people.
- 42:37And like we said about a Godless Society, morality and godliness.
- 42:41When we talk about godliness, I don't mean about belief in God,
- 42:44correct, more case of, for example, I have the choice, for
- 42:46example, to cheat a guy at work, you know, I can, I can sell him
- 42:51something that's got a lot of value, but but he won't You
- 42:53know, the difference. I'll just cheat him.
- 42:55I'll make more profit that concept as an example is, is, is
- 42:59a lack of godliness and people are proud of that.
- 43:02People are proud to be, like, check this sick deals added.
- 43:04That's liberalist idea. That we now, see, so much of in
- 43:08society is more and more and more telling that your mom's
- 43:11coming. Now, people ask the question,
- 43:13why don't we know when the imams coming?
- 43:15Now, let me ask you something. If we told our ancestors 700
- 43:19years ago, oh, don't worry, Mom's coming 800 years for ya?
- 43:23These guys would care know that because our ancestors and our
- 43:27forefathers have built the foundations of our communities
- 43:30such that we can be in a better position when your mom comes,
- 43:33you know that. And that's, that's what we're
- 43:34told to do. The amount may not come for
- 43:36hundreds of years, but the idea is we live.
- 43:38As if he's coming tomorrow, exactly, Charles Bluff and then
- 43:41but and that's the sad thing. Is it dangerous thing?
- 43:43We see this in our own communities like seeping in, for
- 43:45example, this Western sort of thought process.
- 43:48So the modern liberal sort of environment and it's coming into
- 43:51our own communities. I mean, like, we were speaking
- 43:53before the pod Cast about these mixed Gatherings for example,
- 43:56you know, it's and even in reception parties as music.
- 43:59Yeah. And like our own Shear Shear
- 44:02people, you know? And and I don't know, I'm sure
- 44:04you might have experienced this as well when you get an
- 44:06invitation to your site or something.
- 44:08Unfortunately, we have to clarify these things.
- 44:10Now, is it going to be a mixed Gathering?
- 44:12Is it going to be they're going to be music like it, and it's so
- 44:15sad because that's not living in a way that you ready for them.
- 44:19Um, tomorrow no way, no way and it's a lie.
- 44:23Would you tell these people Well you know sometimes people would
- 44:25say that look please come to the nikah, I'm not going to invite
- 44:28it to the reception because there is music.
- 44:31It's baffling is on the fact that example let's say you want
- 44:34to adhere to those Islamic nor? Yeah, they look down here,
- 44:37Louise. Hi, I'll be really honest.
- 44:44I've had people told me this and extended distant family,
- 44:46sometimes friends that, you know, from the community I've
- 44:49had people like cool me extremists within our community
- 44:53because our I'll pray or go to imagine it's or whatever.
- 44:56Oh you don't do. You must get stopped a lot in
- 44:58airports. Bro what's wrong with you?
- 45:00Yeah I'm just a normal guy, chill out.
- 45:03But anyway I just wanted to maybe summarize the conversation
- 45:05with a Hadith from a mama silently Slammer we mentioned
- 45:08how your mom a lot today - I like an Islam Charlotte, we can
- 45:11be in following his footsteps as well.
- 45:13Your mom says, one who dies anticipating the rule of a mom
- 45:17and Maddie is as one who will be with Allah, I'm in his tent.
- 45:22Watch a lot of other socially. Not only that but he possesses
- 45:25the rank of the one who fought with the sword in the presence
- 45:27of the Prophet. It just goes to show that and
- 45:30the key word here is anticipating, the rule
- 45:33anticipating the relief that we will be amongst the Imam.
- 45:36The acted. Like you mentioned that phrase
- 45:38active into a bottle of course they're fantastic organization.
- 45:40I think Sean might as well but that active interval are the
- 45:43active waiting is better than just stagnating and just sitting
- 45:46around being lacks shallow. We can get the sure.
- 45:49I'm not sure which one we have you on this show and your mom.
- 45:53Man of many talents stuff. Ruler.
- 45:55No, nothing like that. Are you able to bless us with
- 45:57some poetry or honestly sharing your voice and share with your
- 46:00finishing? The and child?
- 46:03Sure. So we start with the cellulite
- 46:04Allah, Muhammad SAS in English, poem in honor of our Imam,
- 46:11inshallah, Our said,
- 49:24That we are steadfast on our path towards being his true.
- 49:28She not being those who do lip service and Proclaim, to be as
- 49:32followers and do not follow his expectations on us in sha.
- 49:36Allah, brother, sisters. As always, it's been a pleasure.
- 49:39If you have any comments, anything you want to share with
- 49:41us, please let us know. Leave a comment in the
- 49:43descriptions. Is there something that you
- 49:46would tell the Imam if you could see him right now if you could
- 49:48speak to him right now? What would you tell him?
- 49:50What would you ask from him? What would you tell him to help
- 49:53you to fix? X or something like that and
- 49:55even more. So, if you knew the Imam was
- 49:58coming next week, next month, what would you do?
- 50:00Would be the first thing you do. When you go pray, the prayer
- 50:04mat. Would you try and fly to the
- 50:06holy lands? What would be the first thing

- 53:31of, like, what is going on. I haven't been to the word of
- 53:34any issues of mine, and he was, why you not talking to any mom

- 53:40cried to above the lab busts, you've quite Imam, Hussein.
- 53:43You've connected with all of them, he's telling me looking
- 53:46next to me because you're a mom is standing next to you.
- 53:50Because you're not talking to him and I'm shook, I'm like,
- 53:53wow. And he goes to talk to you and
- 53:56Mom, he's waiting there for you. You just have to talk to him.
- 53:59He's listening, he wants to help you.
- 54:00He wants to help you and I can know in life, if we want
- 54:04something from someone, we asked them use the same logic with
- 54:07your imams. Ask him, he's waiting for you
- 54:09and bro, and this year started talking, very sternly to me to
- 54:14the point that after I left, I was like, nearly in tears.
- 54:17I was like, I can't believe this is just happened, and it was a
- 54:20massive wake-up calls. Her massive reminder because you
- 54:23know what you forget You forget that you're a mom is here with
- 54:26you. Right?
- 54:27You of course connected with Alibis Mantra saying, but they
- 54:31no disrespect but that's in the past.
- 54:33You know you still get there were stealer your mum's there.
- 54:36And this is sometimes what I said?
- 54:37It's begin. You forget just because he's not
- 54:38in front of you. So I forget and that made me
- 54:42alhamdulillah alhamdulillah as best as I can.
- 54:43Every day two to three minutes in the morning, do Ciara to him,
- 54:47say, Salam and chat to him chatting like a mate, honestly.
- 54:51Telling this is what I'm going through, but I know that has
- 54:54helped my connections. Lily.
- 54:56But what happened was mad? It was bro, I was freaked out
- 54:59but that was the do faecalis, mandala gave him the sheriff to
- 55:02tell me and she tells me at the end, he goes, this is why I was
- 55:06coupled with you in this room, he's telling me.
- 55:07This this is why I was blown away.
- 55:11So I think I said mom's is I think I was doing it for us.
- 55:15I know and I hope and Charlie know if that helped me and if
- 55:18you can't help anybody else, you know it's a big, big reminder,
- 55:21don't forget your mom's beneficial.
