[30:00]for a purification of our hearts and hastening of the reappearance of

[30:07]our beloved the 12 im with the loudness of our voices [Music]

[30:18]once Again, lovers and the followers of we thank almighty Allah for

[30:30]gracing us with tonight the seventh night of the holy month of

[30:37]muharam.

[30:36]We pray sincerely that almighty Allah accept our humble efforts in this

[30:44]holy month of muharam and make us worthy of being the true

[30:53]lovers and the followers of shahada.

[30:56]The verse I've just quoted from the holy Quran is Quran 40

[31:04]verse 67 Allah and in this beautiful verse highlights on three important

[31:18]main stages of our lives.

[31:22]He begins saying interrupt.

[31:26]He is the one who created you from clay.

[31:32]Then from the cement, then from the cloth, then from here he

[31:45]begins mentioning the three main stages of our lives.

[31:51]Then he brings you out as child.

[32:00]Then you reach your strength meaning youth.

[32:08]Then you become elders.

[32:12]Now these three stages of our lives are of great importance.

[32:18]Each and every stage plays crucial role especially the first and the

[32:27]second one in shaping the type of elders we become.

[32:33]Now departing from this beautiful vers tonight is building youth with purpose

[32:46]and passion.

[32:46]Our stages of the examination will be of the following.

[32:53]Number one, we'll look at the definition of the youth stage and

[33:01]what are the characteristics of this stage.

[33:07]Very important.

[33:07]Second stage of our examination will look at youth in the holy

[33:15]Quran and the traditions of our beloved prophet and al third stage

[33:21]of our examination we'll look at youth crisis mistakes and misconceptions and

[33:32]then the last stage of our examination of tonight inshallah we'll look

[33:38]at some recommendations and solutions.

[33:41]Main aim of tonight's discourse inshallah is first and foremost for the

[33:50]youths to appreciate their stages of life and secondly is for the

[34:00]fathers, mothers, elders and most importantly our community leaders to appreciate their

[34:08]duties and responsibilities towards building youth with purpose and passion.

[34:17]At the end of the day, most of the companions of Sedu

[34:22]Shada in Karbala were youth and this religion that we hold so

[34:32]dear, Islamic religion grew by the effort of many youth if you

[34:37]read history.

[34:39]So therefore we cannot overemphasize on the importance of building our youth

[34:48]within the religion of Islam.

[34:51]The moment may God forbid a community neglect youth of course children

[35:00]and women that is then the beginning of the failure and the

[35:04]destruction of that community.

[35:06]Now kindly pay attention brothers and sisters especially our youth first stage

[35:14]of our examination.

[35:14]What is the definition of youth stage?

[35:20]You see there are so many definitions out there as to who

[35:31]is youth and what this stage constitutes.

[35:34]But I found two fascinating definitions I would like to share with

[35:42]you.

[35:41]Written by one Arab scholar Dr.

[35:47]in a magazine called he defined youth biologically and psychologically.

[36:00]Biologically is easy.

[36:02]There are so many variations.

[36:05]According to him, youth are from the age 13 to age 35

[36:13]or to age 40 if you like.

[36:17]But what interests me is the psychological definition of the youth stage.

[36:24]Kindly pay attention to this.

[36:27]Psychologically, youth is someone who is creative and productive.

[36:36]Youth is someone who has the power.

[36:47]You've got the power at this stage of your life to be

[36:53]creative and productive.

[36:57]If you are youth my dear brothers and sisters and you are

[37:02]not creative and you are not productive then rest assured there is

[37:09]something wrong with you and when I talk of creativity and productivity

[37:15]I'm talking of these two in all spheres and angles of our

[37:24]lives and so therefore I repeat youth psychologically is someone who is

[37:31]creative and productive.

[37:32]So I'm now talking to myself and to all the youth sitting

[37:38]here.

[37:36]You cannot afford but to be creative and to be productive.

[37:43]If for whatever reason you are unable to wake up for your

[37:50]faj salah be creative in this regard.

[37:52]If for whatever reason you becoming lazy at school, be creative about

[37:57]that.

[37:57]If for whatever reason you becoming lazy when it comes to raising

[38:01]your children and your youth, be creative about that.

[38:07]Bottom line, you cannot under any circumstance psychologically refer to yourself as

[38:15]youth if you are not creative and productive.

[38:18]Take note of that.

[38:22]This is crucial.

[38:24]It's easy for me to say I'm youth.

[38:25]Community is not taking care of me.

[38:29]But have you been creative?

[38:29]Have you been productive?

[38:31]Strive to be creative and productive.

[38:34]Then you can put hand on heart and complain to the world.

[38:39]Nobody is looking after you.

[38:40]Now when you examine youth stage, please pay attention to this.

[38:47]is crucial especially to parent and community leaders.

[38:51]You realize that there is one part of this stage which is

[38:57]extremely difficult and sensitive that is teenage years.

[39:05]Teenagers are youth but teenage years are not easy at all.

[39:14]Anyone who has a teenager in his house will understand this or

[39:21]anyone who interact with teenagers will understand because at the end of

[39:24]the day if you are a community leader you need to interact

[39:26]with teenagers although you may not have teenagers in your house.

[39:33]So teenage years I repeat are very difficult and are not easy.

[39:39]You know why?

[39:39]Because teenage years are years of intensity, years of insecurity and years

[39:53]of identity crisis.

[39:53]And for many teenage years are the years of confusion and rebellion.

[40:01]That is why scholars all this view that this is the time

[40:09]meaning in the teenage years when the youth seeks independence.

[40:14]This is the time when the youth questions authorities and this is

[40:24]the time when the youth start asking questions.

[40:27]Who am I?

[40:29]What do I want in life?

[40:32]What is my truth?

[40:35]Am I following this religion because of my father?

[40:38]Am I following this religion because of my mother?

[40:40]Am I going to mad because my father want me to go

[40:45]and I don't want to go?

[40:44]Am I praying because my father want me to do so?

[40:49]And mom and I don't want to do.

[40:51]So it's a very sensitive stage of life.

[40:54]Now let me add this for parents.

[40:59]Teenage years can be extremely difficult.

[41:05]You know why?

[41:08]Because the same child that once clung to your arms slams the

[41:13]door.

[41:15]Yes.

[41:17]Challenges your values.

[41:20]Why are you this way?

[41:26]Not that way.

[41:25]questions your authority in the house.

[41:29]You a mom this way.

[41:33]I'm not that way.

[41:36]I am studying.

[41:34]I know more than you.

[41:38]So it can be challenging for parent to begin with for m

[41:46]teachers and for community leaders and the moment we neglect this stage

[41:52]that is the beginning of our failure in future.

[41:56]So one difficult for parents two teenage years can be a great

[42:08]concern for communities.

[42:08]You know why?

[42:10]Because you will see them drifting apart from the mosque during the

[42:15]year.

[42:16]Alhamdulillah everybody comes pulls people.

[42:21]Imam Hussein is like a magnet.

[42:24]It brings people.

[42:25]But you come to the mosque, five people.

[42:28]You come Thursday, no one.

[42:32]Those you will see them will be elders and senior citizens.

[42:35]Where are the young ones?

[42:39]Do you blame them?

[42:39]Not necessarily.

[42:40]It may be two-way traffic as I will explain later on inshallah.

[42:45]But it can be an extreme concern for community leaders, either the

[42:50]president, either the secretary or those who run our communities.

[42:53]It can be extremely concerned because they may not be attending to

[43:00]the mosque.

[43:00]Not only that, they are addicted to their screens.

[43:08]They will sit somewhere they will be watching their screen and not

[43:14]only that for community when they come to the mosque they can

[43:18]confidently tell you this is not making sense I don't understand this

[43:26]and some we get worked up when they ask they are very

[43:30]confident they tell what are you talking about this doesn't make sense

[43:33]to me I give you example you know I love mamm a

[43:37]lot But sometimes a youth can come and ask why are you

[43:43]doing this?

[43:41]Don't get worked up.

[43:44]Chill answer.

[43:44]It's that you have the answer or you cannot tell him you

[43:49]are going to janam because you are not doing this.

[43:51]So it can be a great concern my dear brothers and sisters.

[43:57]Now let me humbly invite our youth look at some of the

[44:06]characteristics of this stage of your life.

[44:07]and take advantage of it before it is too late.

[44:13]Because once you pass this stage, youth stage, it can be extremely

[44:20]difficult to be able to make things up.

[44:23]The first characteristic and quality of youth stage I repeat again there

[44:28]are so many youth here alhamdulillah is that you can easily be

[44:35]creative and productive if you want from the definition.

[44:39]So then settle follow I mentioned last night if you struggling with

[44:48]your studies be it mathematics science be creative about it so that

[44:53]you become you become productive at the end of the day.

[44:56]Whatever you struggle with at this stage of your life humbly I

[45:02]tell you my dear brothers and sisters youth you should be able

[45:05]to overcome it before it is too late.

[45:08]Second quality of youth stage is what?

[45:15]Youth my dear brothers and sisters they are quick in taking decision

[45:23]youth who is dilly darling should I shouldn't should I shouldn't rest

[45:34]assure there is something wrong there excuse me it is only elders

[45:38]of course not all elders under normal circumstance if you want to

[45:41]take this alam to this place it take one month to discussing

[45:44]when do you take this alam to this place but for the

[45:54]youth it's jaldi let's get it done and go of course not

[45:57]every time get it done and go is also good but it's

[46:04]something positive with the elders let's do this you know we have

[46:08]a meeting one week meeting two weeks meeting do we change from

[46:16]English to meeting meeting youth no baba let's go man so if

[46:23]you are youth abib and then you are too much delaying delaying

[46:29]delaying then there's something wrong you need someone to help you with

[46:33]advice the third but not the least quality of this youth stage

[46:42]is Youth can easily change.

[46:49]Seriously, may God forbid if one is on drugs and you are

[46:57]truly determined to change.

[46:58]It may take time once it becomes an addiction, you should be

[47:03]able to change when you are youth.

[47:05]But once you become an elder, a it's a mammoth task to

[47:09]change.

[47:12]So at your age maybe your salat is not up to that

[47:20]level it's not standard wah it's not too late you can change

[47:23]be determined from tonight you should be able to change yes maybe

[47:30]you finished madrasa last year madrasa two years ago and you can't

[47:34]remember all the aam you've done for example go back you realize

[47:40]we In a short space of time, you are on top of

[47:45]your game.

[47:46]You know why?

[47:45]Because Allah has given you that.

[47:47]So if you have a youth in your house, they may give

[47:52]you sleepless nights.

[47:51]Sometimes it's not easy.

[47:56]Especially when they start going to university within that first year, they

[48:00]will come with some ideologies.

[48:01]You don't know where it is coming from.

[48:05]Relax.

[48:04]You have an opportunity to be able to change things if you

[48:11]can because Allah place in them the ability to change.

[48:15]Now this brings me to the second stage of my examination youth

[48:22]in the holy Quran and the traditions of our beloved prophet and

[48:33][Music] Let's look at Quran bearing in mind these characteristics we've just

[48:44]mentioned and let's all be inspired by these teachings of the holy

[48:54]Quran and the traditions of our beloved prophet.

[48:55]First example is the example of prophet Ibraim.

[49:05]Surah verse number 60 Quran 21.

[49:12]Ibraim as youth stood against politism.

[49:21]youth.

[49:22]Some historians mention Ibraim wasn't even 20 at this stage.

[49:31]Some said a little bit above 20.

[49:35]Alim Ibraimis was youth when he made all of them to go

[49:37]back to their senses.

[49:40]You are worshiping these small idols.

[49:42]I've been telling you this is not the right thing to do.

[49:47]They were not budging.

[49:47]of Ibraim the best thing he could do was to go and

[49:50]destroyed each one of them and he left the big one isn't

[49:54]it and he then placed the amination he had with the big

[49:58]one they came they were asking who did that he said of

[50:00]course ask the big one if he speaks you see they thought

[50:08]they were wise but Ibraimisam at a very young age let monotism

[50:14]manifested in his So I and you really we have everything on

[50:19]a silver platter strive religion will not just be easy and making

[50:27]sense to if we don't strive for it.

[50:29]We are blessed born into this religion but if we as youth

[50:38]we don't take it seriously and explore more we will not understand

[50:42]it much.

[50:43]It becomes boring.

[50:45]Second example in the holy Quran my dear brothers and sisters is

[50:51]prophet surah verse 27.

[50:59]You and I know very well what happened to people were not

[51:07]budging.

[51:08]They were not listening to his invitation to such an extent.

[51:13]If you read this ayah, the ayah makes it crystal clear.

[51:24]You know, you are nothing but human like us.

[51:32]Then look at the next line.

[51:37]And what we see of your followers are those who in their

[51:45]thoughts are way less than our thoughts.

[51:49]Here they are referring to the youth young ones who followed.

[51:55]Majority of the followers of prophetam were youth.

[52:01]They were very young.

[52:04]They were of your ages.

[52:05]Some were even younger than your ages.

[52:09]They were the few harmful who supported prophetam and Allah asawel celebrate

[52:18]them in the holy Quran.

[52:20]Third example in the holy Quran which is also fascinating is the

[52:31]example of those who believed and follow Musam.

[52:41]Allah says none believed in MS except I said his family family

[52:52]from his nation.

[52:52]Here when you examining referring to the young ones who followed Musam.

[53:00]So today our religion need you youth than any other person.

[53:06]You need to be in the forefront of salah.

[53:09]You need to be in the forefront of serving in the community

[53:15]because the religion of Allah was made to grow through the effort

[53:21]of the youth.

[53:22]You don't wait until you become old.

[53:28]You do not wait until you become a senior citizen.

[53:29]The religion and the school of thought of need you now or

[53:38]no more.

[53:38]Now come to the traditions of the prophet and let's be inspired

[53:44]again before we move forward.

[53:47]You heard of m ib some may say mas.

[53:53]You know this gentleman he was a Christian.

[53:57]He became a Muslim through the guidance of our beloved prophet.

[54:03]This is fascinating story.

[54:04]And you know what happened?

[54:08]He was the one sent by our beloved prophet to the holy

[54:11]city of Medina to propagate Islam.

[54:18]Read his history.

[54:21]It's all about the youth.

[54:24]He went there in his 20s, early 20s.

[54:27]Historians said he was about 24 years.

[54:30]He went there, he propagate Islam.

[54:35]So if you are not in the forefront, who do you want

[54:39]to be in the forefront?

[54:41]That's one example.

[54:44]Second example, Muslims towards the end of the life of the holy

[54:54]prophet had an encounter.

[54:56]Prophet said Osama you are going to lead Muslims.

[55:02]First Khalifa Abuakar, secondh you all follow the leadership of Osama to

[55:14]such an extent.

[55:16]The holy prophet said all of you go follow us.

[55:29]Why not become a leader regardless of your age?

[55:34]You can Osama led the Muslims among them the leaders and the

[55:41]senior citizens in the Muslim camp during the lifetime of the holy

[55:45]prophet and prophet said may the curse of Allah be on anyone

[55:48]who stand against the leadership of Osama young so don't fold your

[55:56]arms you are needed each one of you is important.

[56:02]We do not see you.

[56:06]We get worried.

[56:05]We do not see you.

[56:08]We think the future is dark as our youth.

[56:14]So don't be a Shi of Muharam.

[56:19]Don't be a Muslim of Shah Ramadan.

[56:23]Be a Muslim and a Shia throughout the year.

[56:28]I do appreciate you.

[56:31]I'll indicate to you later on.

[56:32]You're going through lots of challenges but I beg you without you

[56:38]we cannot go forward as youth as lovers and the followers of

[56:47]the second example.

[56:49]Now we all sitting here because of who?

[56:53]Imm Hussein right?

[56:56]The tradition says together the youth of paradise, Im Hassan, Im Hussein,

[57:21]Abdah Abbas, they were all youth alongside meaning come forward.

[57:31]Is it in the A you want to support?

[57:36]Is it in the you want to support?

[57:38]Is it in the madr you want to support?

[57:43]Build your salah.

[57:41]Build your knowhow about I'm not saying this for sake.

[57:47]Alhamdulillah we go around we see youth.

[57:50]Let this energy of muharam continuous if not all beyond the muharam

[57:57]and rest assured Allah will be proud with you and the imam

[58:00]of our time will be proud with you again our beloved Im

[58:09][Music] as you know the tradition very and say supported the holy

[58:29]prophets.

[58:28]When did join and supported the holy prophet?

[58:36]At the age of 13 habibi 1 three it's easy for me

[58:39]to give an excuse to say you know what that time is

[58:41]different.

[58:42]No no no no no no no no no no you can

[58:45]if you truly want to do.

[58:50]Yes, there are challenges.

[58:50]I agree 100%.

[58:50]But you can look at the tradition.

[59:08]We had a youth be mentioned and his name is Ibraim here

[59:15]also from Ali.

[59:21]There is no youth like Ali was youth.

[59:30]Why not I Why not you?

[59:40]Islam needs you.

[59:44]Now let me add this from the tradition of the prophet.

[59:48]This is beautiful.

[59:52]Prophet said talking to the elders and leaders and fathers and mothers.

[60:04]I urge you to be kind to the youth.

[60:10]I urge you reach out to the youth because they have soft

[60:24]hearts meaning their hearts are fertile ground.

[60:28]But then he said, look at the Arabic, beautiful Arabic.

[60:47]as a career of good news and a warner.

[60:51]Then the youth accepted me and the elders rejected me.

[60:59]But today, excuse me, you forgive me.

[61:05]If you look at my ratio, our elders are accepting and our

[61:08]youth are not.

[61:11]It may not, you may not be wrong.

[61:16]Maybe depend on the circumstance but the holy prophet is saying youth

[61:19]accepted me.

[61:21]Salman alis he was youth during the battle of aak when he

[61:25]suggested to the holy prophet what to be done.

[61:28]Salman was youth when he gained the title Salman was youth salman

[61:38]was youth mad he was youth when he would say al these

[61:51]were all youth around our beloved prophet now let's come to those

[62:00]who are not Masum or those who are not competit one or

[62:03]two examples.

[62:04]You all heard of Allah.

[62:06]You heard of him?

[62:09]Hhabibi became at a very young ages thunder age and is regarded

[62:23]one of the great Shia scholars by all standard.

[62:29]But if you look at the work of Allah and you read

[62:34]his biography, he was young.

[62:37]Don't wait until you retire or you are about to retire.

[62:42]That's the time you want to show you are serious in your

[62:44]religion.

[62:48]Take religion seriously.

[62:52]Come to Kbala.

[62:54]As I mentioned earlier on, majority of the companions of Imam Hussein

[63:02]were young.

[63:04]Good number of us here, we were older than them.

[63:09]Tonight is dedicated to Kasim, isn't it?

[63:11]How old was Kasim?

[63:14]All not more than 13 years in Kbala Shakim.

[63:19]We commemorated Muhammad and narration tells us 11:12 Psalms 13:14 they were

[63:29]young.

[63:30]This is to inspire our youth regardless of the challenges we are

[63:38]going through that there is still hope.

[63:41]My dear brothers and sisters, our dear youth, he came forward.

[63:48]He like in the case of the other young companions of Im

[63:55]Hussein introduced himself to the enemies in Hassan.

[64:03]If you do not recognize me, I am the descendant or the

[64:10]son of a Hassan, the grandson of the prophet, the chosen and

[64:14]the trusted one.

[64:18][Music] He used the word that indeed this chosen prophet is trusted

[64:27]one.

[64:27]Then he said he said this is Hussein like a captive held

[64:37]in chains.

[64:40]said amongst people whose hearts are harder than the rainless cloud.

[64:49]Kasim tonight is his night.

[64:55]Kasim was young.

[64:56]Not only that, Kasim led his other brothers, the sons of Imam

[65:05]Hassan in Kbala.

[65:08]He led them.

[65:06]He guided them.

[65:10]So Islam doesn't expect less from our youth.

[65:16]First you build yourself.

[65:21]And then secondly, come and serve the cause of Islam before it's

[65:24]too late.

[65:25]I tell you brothers and sisters, this is to all of us,

[65:28]but most especially the youth.

[65:29]Wallah, what's the point of life if you don't build your legacy

[65:35]in this world?

[65:40]You are now 20 or you are now 30.

[65:45]What have you achieved so far?

[65:50]What have you achieved?

[65:52]You need to build your legacy.

[65:55]Heroes of Kabala built their legacies and today we are all enjoying

[66:03]from their legacies.

[66:05]Now first stage of the examination interesting part youth crisis mistakes and

[66:17]misconceptions.

[66:19]Now every youth one way or the other goes through this crisis.

[66:29]The first mistake good number of our youth make is misunderstanding independence.

[66:42]You'll hear youth saying or a teenager, I know myself.

[66:48]I know what I want.

[66:52]I'm happy to decide my own truth.

[66:59]But Islam comes on and says it's true.

[67:04]You must grow into independence but not isolation.

[67:11]You need guidance my dear youth.

[67:15]See when you walk you don't see your back.

[67:20]The one who sees your back will be able to explain things

[67:24]to you that you do not see.

[67:27]We live in a world today where we often hear people glorifying

[67:37]freedom without guidance.

[67:39]Islam says freedom or independence without guidance is distraction as youth.

[67:50]Yes, rejoice your independence but rest assured you are never independent of

[68:03]guidance.

[68:01]The day you think you know it better than your father and

[68:08]mother who squeezed water out of stones to make you who you

[68:10]are today.

[68:12]That is the beginning of hitting potholes in your life.

[68:16]Not only your parents the day you think that elderly person who

[68:23]is sitting there you know it better than him or her and

[68:25]the elder cannot say anything to you that is the beginning of

[68:32]your failure.

[68:31]Freedom is crucial independence is important but that doesn't mean I do

[68:40]not need to be guided by someone.

[68:43]So first mistake good number of our youth make is that no

[68:50]I'm independent I'm free let me make my mistake the way you

[68:52]made your mistakes inshallah I will make it up life today is

[68:58]not like that it's not trial and luck that's first mistake second

[69:04]mistake or misconception is blindly believing in yourself today we often hear

[69:12]motivational speakers I'm not talking of all motivational speakers.

[69:15]But you will hear online either on Insta, Facebook, X, Snapchat, you

[69:23]name it.

[69:23]You know, believe in yourself.

[69:28]Follow your thoughts.

[69:29]You don't need anyone.

[69:32]You can use your charg be careful.

[69:39]True.

[69:40]Islam says believe in your capacity.

[69:43]I mentioned last night.

[69:45]But believing in yourself without relying and believing in God leads to

[69:56]disappointment, emptiness and arrogance.

[69:59]Yes, believe in yourself but you need God.

[70:06]Hence scholars will tell us beautifully the best way to do so

[70:13]is to believe in Allah through yourself.

[70:17]So don't get carried away when your friend whether a Muslim or

[70:24]non-Muslim comes forward and says believe in yourself.

[70:26]Believe in yourself.

[70:28]You can do it.

[70:30]You are enough.

[70:30]That's the word the sentence they use.

[70:32]You are enough.

[70:34]You don't need anyone.

[70:36]You may wallah end up regretting.

[70:40]And fathers who are here with us, mothers, grandfathers who have children

[70:45]in your house, as you raise them, build them in such a

[70:50]way that they carry these values with them.

[70:52]And I'll share some practical tips towards the end inshallah.

[70:56]The last but certainly not the least mistake and misconception we see

[71:03]is that good number of our youth this really saddens me.

[71:08]They only seek attention and not purpose.

[71:16]Some they measure their worth with the number of likes they get,

[71:24]the number of comments they get online and the number of views.

[71:28]I see in our own community youth crying overwhelmed with anxiety approaching

[71:36]them why they said why they are liking for my friend they

[71:41]don't like me online.

[71:42]Do you know how much of our youth are suffering with anxiety?

[71:46]How many of them are getting bullied online?

[71:51]When they are in their room and you are in your room,

[71:55]do you know how many hours they spend on their cell phones?

[71:59]Of course, you don't become bodyguard for them.

[72:02]But you need to build a house in such a way that

[72:06]they have a confidence in you.

[72:07]You have a confidence in them.

[72:11]Some of our youth are isolating themselves completely, drifting apart.

[72:18]They want to be alone.

[72:22]Don't seek anyone's attention and approval.

[72:27]You have your family, you have Allah, you have.

[72:36]Please my dear youth, the world want chunk of you and Islam

[72:49]also wants chunk of you.

[72:51]So there is a battle I understand our youth are going through.

[72:59]Now let's go to the last stage of the examination.

[73:04]our duties as elders, as communities especially, I'm focusing on community more

[73:14]tonight and of course parents on what is it that we should

[73:22]do to make sure we build youth with passion and purpose.

[73:25]Our youth are excellent.

[73:28]They just need someone to help them.

[73:34]But we often get tired easily and we give up quickly.

[73:39]One thing we need to appreciate elders and parents.

[73:45]We have two generations.

[73:50]Scholars mention we have Juisol.

[73:53]We have a Juawas.

[73:57]We have a communicating generation and we have connecting generation.

[74:07]Current generation the youth of today they are connecting generation.

[74:14]Our elders and some of those sitting here you are communicating.

[74:19]What do I mean?

[74:19]Today's youth they rather build relationship online sometime they've never met in

[74:26]their lives.

[74:27]You know how many hours our youth spend on their social media?

[74:31]You may try in the house to stop it.

[74:34]You know how many time they how many hours they spend.

[74:37]So appreciate that we've got two sets of generations.

[74:41]Even our centers, our mosque, our imam, we need to understand your

[74:46]generation is not their generation.

[74:48]What worked for you, don't expect everything of it to work for

[74:56]the youth.

[74:56]So some of the youth rightly so that's why they don't go

[75:00]to the mosque that's why they don't come to the programs I

[75:04]don't know of here I'm talking of my experience because they don't

[75:09]find programs relatable they find our programs boring they find our programs

[75:18]not stimulating so they are connecting generation.

[75:26]You, my father, my mother, my auntie, my uncle, my grandfather, you

[75:33]are communicating generation.

[75:34]You look at example, some of our fathers here and mothers came

[75:40]from say Uganda or Pakistan or Afghanistan or Tanzania for example.

[75:46]When your friend from Tanzania, the one you grew up with comes

[75:51]to visit you, it's as if the relationship is built now.

[75:56]You know, you feel good.

[76:00]It's as if the relationship was just built now.

[76:04]But with the youth, they will make 10 friends today and by

[76:11]the end of the day all those friends are gone.

[76:14]That is why some said it's hadith, some said it's not hadith.

[76:18]But alim it makes a lot of sense.

[76:21]Do not raise your children according to your time because they are

[76:28]born in a time completely different from your time.

[76:32]So appreciate that as an elderly person or as a leader or

[76:36]as a father or as a mother.

[76:38]Number two, appreciate one thing.

[76:41]Youth they are highly inquisitive.

[76:47]Sometimes you will think they are annoying because everything they want why

[76:55]even if that why is not in Islam they will ask you

[76:59]why and you know what the moment you say I don't know

[77:04]or you said you are too annoying wah you've given them boarding

[77:07]pass to look for alternate out there if you don't know tell

[77:13]them I will get back to you but they are accept inad

[77:21]they ask so many questions if they don't come to the mosque

[77:29]or Imam bar to ask the questions where do you want them

[77:31]to go and ask the question so now I'm going to give

[77:36]practical tips simple ones how do we reconcile between our generation and

[77:41]the generation of our youth and I believe by so doing we'll

[77:44]be building youth with purpose and passion number one my dear brothers

[77:51]and sisters dialogue with the youth dialogue going this monologue done you

[78:08]don't expect any question then don't speak dialogue talk have an open

[78:19]forum from time to time set a subject come dialogue hear them

[78:25]out this goes to all parents also if you don't dialogue with

[78:30]your children you don't discuss with them they will go and discuss

[78:33]on social media and they'll pick up whatever they want to pick

[78:35]up now when they come with certain ideologies you start saying who

[78:38]is chro of this chakra of that chakra of that this is

[78:41]jannam this is jana baba suji So first dialogue you know this

[78:52]is so important.

[78:55]Number two practical tip build emotional connection with youth.

[79:00]What do I mean by that?

[79:02]Don't be judgmental of youth when they come to the mosque.

[79:07]They are standing outside.

[79:09]Okay.

[79:08]Alhamdulillah they are here.

[79:12]They are not in the theater or cinema.

[79:15]When you begin by criticizing the person will run away from you

[79:21]have to leave them slowly but surely they here they standing outside

[79:25]they not coming for the program slowly but surely explain to them

[79:28]discuss with them hear them out so on the second level build

[79:31]what they call emotional connection with the youth with the children let

[79:37]them feel they have confident in you they will come That's number

[79:46]two.

[79:45]Number three, understand the challenges of our youth.

[79:54]If you are a parent or you are a leader and you

[79:59]don't appreciate the challenges of the youth, you cannot guide them.

[80:02]That is why we must be steps ahead of our youth.

[80:08]Well, they've got so many challenges.

[80:10]Religious identity crisis is there.

[80:13]Gender identity is a challenge.

[80:17]Alcohol can be a challenge.

[80:22]Drug can be a challenge.

[80:26]Peer group influence is a challenge.

[80:30]So, let's appreciate the challenge of the youth so that we are

[80:35]able to guide them properly.

[80:37]That's number three.

[80:39]Number four, be patient with them.

[80:43]Be patient.

[80:45]Don't worry.

[80:56]as a father, as a mother, you will give up and you

[81:02]lose it.

[81:02]Keep working.

[81:03]It may take you one year, but you working on it.

[81:07]It will happen inshallah.

[81:08]But be patient.

[81:11]Saburi saburi.

[81:15]The next one which I'm excited I heard it here.

[81:19]Our sister saja presented mentorship.

[81:22]Our youth require mentorship.

[81:27]It's a very serious thing.

[81:30]Without mentoring them, the world will mentor them for you.

[81:35]And last but certainly not the least, which alhamdulillah, also I think

[81:40]here, I saw it last night, one of the youth, one of

[81:42]the young boys gave a speech announcement.

[81:46]Give them a leadership roles.

[81:51]Huh?

[81:53]Give them leadership roles.

[81:55]Not always you want to enjoy ki and the children are not

[81:58]given the ki.

[82:00]Take only one.

[82:02]Our problem is that I want to see five and 10.

[82:07]La baby.

[82:09]Take one.

[82:07]Let that one shadow you.

[82:10]Keep building.

[82:10]Well, by the time you realize that one will bring you another

[82:13]one.

[82:14]But if you want five, they won't come.

[82:21]slowly but surely.

[82:23]So give them leadership roles, announcements, five minutes lecture before the major

[82:31]program.

[82:31]By so doing you are building their capacity.

[82:35]And last but certainly not the least.

[82:38]As communities across the globe of lovers and followers of we need

[82:43]to have varieties of activities, sports.

[82:46]It brings youth like no one's business.

[82:49]It's like magnet.

[82:53]with the youth if it's only like we remain we are not

[83:03]short of audience but my talk is about after throughout the year

[83:15]don't worry 19th of Ramadan you don't use it to judge community

[83:22]don't worry about that don't worry it's throughout the year that's how

[83:26]you can gauge your community whether the youth are there or not

[83:30]alhamdulillah since I give every night we have audience I always tell

[83:36]people really if you look at the life of Imam as he

[83:38]had no even five people to talk to he was on parole

[83:46]I imi he would even say to his companion when you see

[83:49]me don't this salam to me.

[83:51]Don't even point your fingers and hands to me because I cannot

[83:57]guarantee your safety.

[84:00]So please, brothers and sisters, young and old, we have roles to

[84:07]play.

[84:08]And you stop giving excuses.

[84:09]You've got beautiful centers across the globe.

[84:12]You've got everything.

[84:16]Don't give excuses.

[84:20]Especially those with young children.

[84:22]If you don't come to the mosque regularly, when they grow, they

[84:29]will not come.

[84:28]Now let's go to Kbala and take inspirations from Shakasim.

[84:39]It is a night dedicated to this great warrior of Islam, the

[84:47]representative of Imam Mushta on the 10th day of Muharam.

[84:52]Where do we begin with this mus?

[84:53]My dear dear dear dear dear dear dear dear dear dear brothers

[84:56]and sisters you know we are told in the narrations prophet cried

[85:04]until he became blind although he knew y was alive but it

[85:11]hurts him to know that his sons were fighting each other.

[85:16]How many times we gave our parents sleepless nights because of our

[85:21]behavior.

[85:23]Abu Hamzali one day sat next to Im Zin.

[85:29]He said to me, "Oh my mah, I've realized that you've not

[85:32]stopped crying.

[85:33]You still lamenting over Karbala.

[85:36]You still remembering your father." Imm looked at Abu Hamzali and he

[85:41]said, "Oh, Abu Hamza was missing Ysef." And on account of that,

[85:49]he cried and he became a blind man.

[85:52]But I saw how they butchered my family members.

[85:58]He said, "Oh Abu Ham, I saw how they butchered my beloved

[86:05]father in Kbala." I tell you my dear brothers and sisters on

[86:08]the 10th day of Muharam there was a great display of brotherhood.

[86:14]Is it the brotherhood between Imam Hussein and Abu Fat Abbas?

[86:22]As the poet mentioned Ysef had 12 brothers but Hussein Alisam had

[86:27]only one Abbas and that was enough.

[86:31]Look at the brotherhood between Muhammad and likewise the brotherhood between the

[86:38]sons of Im Hassan Mushta.

[86:42]I begin with Abdullah the son of Im Hassan.

[86:46]Isn't it?

[86:45]You realize that when they began to shower their arrows on Im

[86:52]Hussein, arrow came on the forehead of Hussein.

[86:56]Arrow came on the chest of Hussein.

[86:59]Arrow came on the shoulders of Hussein.

[87:02]Hussein fell on the ground.

[87:03]As they said, he was like a hedgehog on the ground.

[87:08]Now Abdullah from far called out, "I will not allow you to

[87:12]finish off my uncle until you kill me." Abdullah rushed to the

[87:16]body of Im Hussein.

[87:19]He laid his body next to Im Hussein.

[87:22]You know what they did to Abdullah?

[87:28]They shocked the right arm of Abdullah.

[87:28]But the moon of all the sons of Imta is Kim Kim

[87:37]was a great warrior and he displayed impeccable character on the 10th

[87:46]day of Muar.

[87:45]Narration tells us Kazim began to walk towards Abdah Hussein.

[87:52]As he was approaching Im Hussein, he heard Im Hussein calling.

[88:00]Is there any helper to help me?

[88:05]When Kazim got to he said uncle, I am here for permission.

[88:13]Imam Hussein said no.

[88:13]Kasim said, "Oh my uncle, I heard you call him for help.

[88:18]I am here to help you." You know what I say to

[88:20]Kasim?

[88:20]He said Kasim go back look after your mother.

[88:25]Kasim left as Kazim was returning to Ka.

[88:29]He overheard Imam Hussein again.

[88:33][Music] Kazim then returned to Im Hussein.

[88:40]He said uncle I heard you again call him for help.

[88:42]I am here to help you.

[88:46]That's when I immooked at Imm Hussein.

[88:56]He said, "Oh uncle, if I am a man to you, you

[89:00]are a seer to me." But you know what I Hussein said

[89:05]to Kasim, "Go stay behind, look after your mother." You know what

[89:10]Kasim did?

[89:12]Nar tells us Kasim came down.

[89:13]He held the feet of Imam Hussein.

[89:15]He began to kiss the feet of Imam Hussein.

[89:19]He said, "Uncle, I beg you, allow me to go and fight."

[89:22]My father, Imam Hassan told me, "Oh Kasim, you and your brothers,

[89:29]a moment will come when I will not be there.

[89:30]Your uncle will be alone.

[89:36]Allow my sons to fight and represent me." Imam said, "Look at

[89:39]Kasim." He said, "Kim, you breaking my heart.

[89:43]Go back.

[89:42]Now look at the next lie.

[89:46]Allah it breaks the heart of the lover of him.

[89:48]Kasim went back.

[89:51]His mother Ramla asked him why.

[89:56]Kasim said uncle said I'm too young to fight.

[89:57]Ramula then opened the box.

[90:01]She took out a letter.

[90:02]She gave to Kasim.

[90:05]Take it to your uncle.

[90:06]It was the wasa of Imam Hassan.

[90:08]Imam Hussein read the letter.

[90:10]Oh, a moment will come when you will be aloh.

[90:20]Oh, allow my sons to represent me.

[90:26]I was saying look at Kasim.

[90:28]He said Kasim you are breaking my heart.

[90:31]Im then held the hand of Kim.
