[0:02][Music] islamic teachings and there are so many others islamic teachings of

[0:14]what do we do and what are the main instigators of change

[0:18]at the outset are many i'd like to just point out a

[0:22]few number one teachings tell us within islamic literature quran and hadith

[0:26]that change is not overnight we need to give ourselves time we

[0:29]must not overburden ourselves it's a step-by-step process unfortunately shaytan plays on

[0:35]our minds that we can't change there's no way i can give

[0:38]up a bad habit there's no way i can do good things

[0:41]i want to pray namaste i want to stop backbiting i want

[0:45]to stop watching haram and then i'm struggling and shaytan comes and

[0:48]says no no no you can't do it it's okay just ask

[0:50]for tawba remember it takes time as long as we're taking step

[0:55]by step and we see progress then we need to keep ourselves

[1:00]motivated that insha allah we can defeat any temptations self-awareness number two

[1:04]and recognition of the need to change so i have shortcomings i

[1:09]need to change my mindset and i'm determined to do so what

[1:13]does that mean that means if i'm just constantly thinking everything's okay

[1:16]and nothing's gonna happen so i need to start here number three

[1:21]without a shadow of a doubt no change will happen without the

[1:24]blessings of allah subhanahu ta'ala so and these are not and by

[1:29]the way one two three they're not by importance they're just random

[1:33]no doubt to ask a lot about allah is probably number one

[1:37]and to be muchless i want to change for the sake of

[1:42]allah and allah alone yes number four the more younger i am

[1:47]the better the more older and i am resistant to change the

[1:51]more difficult because uh you know habits die hard and you know

[1:57]perhaps if we are older and we've had this habit whatever it

[2:01]is for many many years i'm not saying it's impossible but it's

[2:05]more difficult than when we're younger so this is a message for

[2:10]our youngsters for our youth anybody watching here and it's this that

[2:14]if you think that later on in life okay you know i'm

[2:17]not wearing hijab now i'll wear it when i'm 60 brother 60

[2:22]65 inshallah you know when i'm celebrating my 60th birthday i will

[2:26]have inshallah a nice cake and then i will have presents then

[2:31]that moment i will say oh people now i am wearing hijab

[2:34]number one how do we know we're going to reach 60 number

[2:35]two why 60.

[2:37]i asked one particular person lady who said to me this i

[2:42]said why 60 system she said you know when i am that

[2:46]age i will not be as very you know nice to look

[2:51]at so it doesn't matter my hair will not be great subhanallah

[2:53]look at how shaytan plays on our minds we start playing you

[2:58]know changing law to suit us to suit what is best for

[3:02]us right so number five so number four is to start younger

[3:04]number five is that we recognize that we must consult and ask

[3:15]others for help amir al-mukhmer asks for consultation will not be disappointed

[3:36]will not be disappointed that means consultation at least will help us

[3:44]formulate ideas number seven or four six rather we must accept criticism

[3:49]and we must not take things personally as we said earlier in

[3:52]order for change to take place number seven we must never give

[3:57]up keep at it perseverance constantly to work hard as much as

[4:03]possible number eight if we have a choice between two things one

[4:07]is easy one is harder go for that which is harder in

[4:10]a society world today that everything's become easy you know we must

[4:14]put our self and nafs on a bit more you know strain

[4:18]you know when we do exercise for the soul for the body

[4:21]we need to also exercise for the soul and when we do

[4:26]that then we can say no to temptations and desires and therefore

[4:29]break these bad habits number nine very importantly let's usualize calamities hardships

[4:36]trials difficulties for positive change allah subhana sends us two types of

[4:40]blessings apparent blessings and hidden blessings apparent blessings are for example health

[4:46]wealth security but sometimes what happens is these blessings are not utilized

[4:53]and they the people take them for granted allah says there are

[4:57]two types of tests the ease and the hardship we only look

[5:00]at the hardship sometimes but let's not forget the ease the fourth

[5:03]holy imam peace be upon him says ya allah i don't know

[5:06]when to thank you more when i am at ease or when

[5:10]it comes to hardship because both are tests and so calamities let's

[5:14]say at least calamities should be a moment for me to change

[5:19]if for example i see a a body being buried and i

[5:22]go to the cemetery in gabriel and i see it being lowered

[5:25]or take part in the hustle of a body or i go

[5:28]for zia or i go for hajj or i see wretched individuals

[5:33]and tyrants dying in the death of humiliation and disgrace or whatever

[5:39]else that happens in my life like this covert 19 i should

[5:42]always remind myself i need to remain humble allah could take my

[5:48]life any moment what will i do if i am taken away

[5:51]from this world and the state of gunaah and sin what will

[5:55]i do and that's my message for those god forbid you know

[5:58]that are watching that moment that you're watching your soul can leave

[6:01]your body imagine meeting allah in the state of watching haram imagine

[6:05]what worse can it be than this and of course number 10

[6:11]the final point that i would like to recommend is jannah and

[6:18]paradise will not be attained unless we go through these hardships which

[6:22]is for the purpose of change you know allah wants us to

[6:25]shed you know this our skin this our skin constantly sheds by

[6:29]the way you know that scientifically it's been shown right so if

[6:32]the body is constantly changing the cells the skin the the blood

[6:39]around us in our body is circulating that means our behavior as

[6:42]well in order for us to get better so that we get

[6:43]and get to jannah you're walking you're getting this slowly to allah

[6:53]until you meet him so that meeting of allah so to speak

[6:57]on the day of qiyamah has to be the best so we

[7:00]have to progress to make ourselves the best we reach this tranquil

[7:05]submissive heart can only be attained through positive transformation and development as

[7:13]we have been recommended
