[0:05]Alhamdulillah.

[0:28]Respected scholars, brothers and sisters, It seems that there's a fortune game

[1:03]tonight because the crowd is a little thin.

[1:05]Unless there's not, which is which is even worse.

[1:10]I'd like to uh begin our discussion tonight first by offering my

[1:16]congratulations to all of you uh on the birth anniversary of say

[1:25]who truly embodies the concept of dignity in Islam and victory in

[1:35]the face of adversity to anchor our discussion tonight.

[1:43]I want to begin by reflecting on this verse from where Allah

[1:51]subhana wa ta'ala he makes a promise.

[2:01]Allah subhana wa ta'ala in this ayah he says and god has

[2:08]written and this is for emphasis you know when something is written

[2:12]it conveys an idea of being official means that Allah has proclaimed

[2:24]for those of you who are familiar with the Arabic language there

[2:29]is double emphasis in this word the lamb of emphasis.

[2:33]And Allah has written that without a shadow of doubt, Allah says,

[2:42]"Me and my messengers will be victorious." You see, when you look

[2:53]at the Quran, one of the most revolutionary concepts is the idea

[2:58]that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is You know this this ayah, alhamdulillah,

[3:05]we take it for granted.

[3:07]But the reality is that this verse, the idea of Allah being

[3:17]the nurturer of the heavens and the earth was revolutionary because the

[3:24]Arabs in the pre-Islamic era, the mushri, they believe that Allah was

[3:31]the creator.

[3:30]They accepted him as the creator.

[3:41]If you were to ask these idol worshippers who created the heavens

[3:50]and the earth, they would say surely Allah.

[3:51]So they believed in what we can call they believe that the

[3:58]creator of the heavens and the earth is just one.

[4:02]So then the question is why do they worship idols?

[4:03]because they had this idea that God is too lofty to be

[4:11]concerned with the affairs of human beings that Allah is so transcendent

[4:16]that he is aloof from his creation.

[4:19]He can't be bothered with you know your livelihood, your sickness, your

[4:27]troubles and hence they return to these idols, these lesser gods for

[4:34]their daily needs.

[4:35]And then comes the prophet and he says alhamdulillah that Allah is

[4:44]not just your creator.

[4:47]He didn't just create you and abandon you.

[4:47]He didn't create you and feel that you are too lowly for

[4:54]him to have a relationship with you.

[4:56]The idea of is that Allah says, "I created you and I'm

[5:01]going to be with you every step of the way." That I

[5:06]communicate with you, I speak to you, I guide you, I nurture

[5:10]you, I am actively involved in every step of your life.

[5:18]So that means that Allah subhana wa ta'ala speaks to us.

[5:22]He communicates to us and one of the things that he has

[5:25]done in the Quran is that he has made certain promises to

[5:33]us.

[5:32]There are many verses in the Quran where Allah makes promises to

[5:39]his servants.

[5:37]Inah Bakar verse 102 Allah makes a promise.

[5:44]of remember me and I will remember you.

[5:50]It's not that Allah remembers in the sense that he forgets and

[5:55]then you come to mind.

[5:55]No, remember me and I will give you special consideration.

[6:00]I will treat you with special regard.

[6:03]Remember me among human beings and I will remember you in the

[6:10]highest assembly of angels.

[6:11]That's a promise.

[6:14]Allah subhana wa ta'ala also promises something else.

[6:22]Allah says if you are grateful I will increase you in blessings.

[6:31]That's a promise.

[6:30]If you're grateful there is a reaction and that is Allah will

[6:36]give you more.

[6:39]Another promise Whoever is conscious of God and this what's amazing is

[6:53]that this ayah is in you know because in the context of

[6:57]divorce people don't think about God they think about I need to

[7:03]find the best lawyer right so Allah subhana wa ta says what

[7:10]he makes a promise if you make the obedience of God your

[7:14]highest priority, Allah will help you find a way out.

[7:21]But if you think that you're smart, Allah will leave you to

[7:27]your own device.

[7:27]And then Allah says, "If you have tawa, if you don't try

[7:35]to cut corners, if you are a person of integrity, Allah says,

[7:40]I will help you find a way out and I will provide

[7:42]for for you from unexpected sources." That's a promise.

[7:50]And among the most important promises that Allah makes in the Quran

[7:56]is that indeed me and my messengers we will prevail.

[8:07]We will be victorious.

[8:10]But when you look at the long history of prophets, it doesn't

[8:16]seem like a story of victory because the overwhelming majority of prophets

[8:23]were killed.

[8:25]If you look at our imams killed by the sword or killed

[8:31]by poison, where is the victory?

[8:34]You see, to understand what constitutes victory from an Islamic perspective, you

[8:42]have to understand the purpose of life.

[8:46]How can you understand what victory is if you haven't fully comprehended

[8:53]the purpose of life?

[8:53]What is the purpose of life?

[8:55]I don't want to get into a deep philosophical discussion but if

[9:00]we want to put it very simply the purpose of life is

[9:06]to live authentically and to live authentically means that you have to

[9:12]align your values and your life with the absolute truth and one

[9:18]of the names of Allah is al you know we have this

[9:24]expression the truth will set you free.

[9:26]Many of us, we've experienced this at various junctures in our lives.

[9:32]There is something very liberating about discovering the truth, speaking the truth,

[9:38]and supporting the truth.

[9:40]And Allah subhanana wa ta'ala in the Quran, he calls us to

[9:50]be promoters of truth, upholders of truth.

[9:52]And the prophets, they are the official communicators of truth.

[9:58]They are the official preservers of truth.

[10:01]They are the warriors of truth.

[10:05]And therefore, victory is to simply participate in the perpetual struggle between

[10:16]truth and falsehood.

[10:17]So when you look at this ayah, Allah says, that me and

[10:27]my messengers will be victorious.

[10:28]What does that mean?

[10:29]Does that mean that every prophet is going to crush his enemies

[10:33]in the battlefield?

[10:33]We know that that's not the case.

[10:36]If you look at Ibraim and Num who was victorious you know

[10:45]at during the lifetime of Ibraim the answer to that question was

[10:52]not obvious.

[10:53]Who is the victor?

[10:56]The great Num or this youth this troublemaker called Ibraim.

[11:04]But now today, thousands of years later, we know who was victorious

[11:11]because no one in the world wants to associate themselves with Namud.

[11:19]But more more than half of the world takes pride in following

[11:22]the tradition of Ibraim.

[11:25]That is victory.

[11:27]The legacy of Ibraim continues.

[11:30]the legacy of Nimud's ashes.

[11:34]You know, this reminds me of a a narration that she mentions

[11:39]in his Amali.

[11:41]So, if let me share something with you that will be useful

[11:45]if you ever participate in Islamic jeopardy.

[11:48]The word amali literally means dictations.

[11:54]is a book where the great shehi who is the founder of

[11:59]the of he used to have you know what I would call

[12:04]sah with the boys except his boys were scholars right so he

[12:07]used to have these gatherings and what would they do they weren't

[12:12]smoking and cracking jokes I don't know maybe maybe he did smoke

[12:15]I'm not sure the point is that he would share a hadith

[12:20]with his students on various topics and every evening they would sit

[12:28]withhi and he would share five, six, seven a hadith and they

[12:30]would write those a hadith and over the years the book was

[12:38]compiled the dictations of shehikhi.

[12:39]One of the hadith that he mentions in the is the following

[12:47]hadith from He says Ali.

[13:05]When Imam Zam had returned from Kbalah after the massacre of Imam

[13:14]Hussein and his companions, there was a man who was associated with

[13:22]the Umayads.

[13:25]He saw Im Zin and the Imam had his head covered.

[13:30]He he had just returned from witnessing the worst massacre in the

[13:36]history of Islam.

[13:38]And you know these um they have this habit of really kicking

[13:43]people when they're down or as as far as their from their

[13:46]perspective.

[13:47]So he tries to taunt im what does he say to him?

[13:56]He says Hussein who won.

[14:02]He says to immedi folk, all of the men were slaughtered.

[14:10]So he's trying to taunt him.

[14:17]Who won?

[14:15]He was gloating.

[14:19]Who's victorious?

[14:20]Imam Zin.

[14:22]Even though physically he was tortured and he was probably completely depleted,

[14:30]he looks at him and he says, "If you want to know

[14:38]who was victorious, if you want to know whose legacy will live

[14:48]on and who was truly victorious, wait for the time of salah

[14:56]and recite the adan and the whose name still echo echoes in

[15:00]the lands.

[15:01]Is it the name of Yazid and his forefathers or is it

[15:07]the name of Muhammadbah?

[15:13]That is that is victory to participate in a struggle where you

[15:23]change the direction of history.

[15:25]Even if you don't see the fruits of your labor in your

[15:28]lifetime to merely be a participant in this holy struggle that in

[15:35]and of itself is victory.

[15:37]Among the promises that Allah subhana wa ta'ala makes in the Quran

[15:44]is in surah Muhammad surah 47 ayia number seven.

[15:48]Oh you who believe Oh you who believe if you help God

[16:01]will help you.

[16:04]Question why does God need help?

[16:09]Does Allah need help?

[16:10]I thought Allah is the all powerful.

[16:12]Why does Allah say if you help me I will help you.

[16:19]The mu of the Quran they say Allah is not asking you

[16:24]to help him helping him means to help his message to be

[16:29]at the service of truth that is helping God because Allah is

[16:35]al and to be at the service of the truth is to

[16:41]put yourself in God's camp if you help God will help you

[16:49]but the question is how does Allah help the believers?

[16:56]Because when you look at what's happened over the past year, some

[17:00]of us might look at Gaza, we might look at Lebanon and

[17:05]we might ask where is the help of God?

[17:11]And as the days and the weeks and the months pass, some

[17:16]of us might even fall into a state of despair, how does

[17:22]Allah subhana wa ta'ala help the believers?

[17:25]He does it in many ways and inshallah tomorrow night we'll speak

[17:28]in more detail.

[17:31]But very briefly if you look at the movement of the prophet

[17:38]Allah subh sometimes you have where the victory is very clear but

[17:49]sometimes you have and you have you have ups and you have

[17:59]downs in the battle of how did Allah Subhana wa ta'ala help

[18:03]the believers.

[18:05]Allah subhana wa ta'ala he says infal you know you can imagine

[18:09]the Muslim army this is the first battle and they're outnumbered 3

[18:15]to one and the they have the best weapons and any political

[18:23]pundit in the world would have looked at that and would have

[18:28]said the Muslims are finished.

[18:29]Allah subhana wa ta'ala what does he say?

[18:32]He says it's not just when you make dua.

[18:42]It's when you make dua from the depths of your heart because

[18:45]you feel that you have no other recourse.

[18:48]It's the most sincere.

[18:50]It's it's a dua out of desperation.

[18:52]It's a very sincere dua.

[18:57]Allah responded.

[18:58]And you know why Allah responds?

[19:00]Allah responds to sincere duas.

[19:02]The problem is most of the time when we make dua, life

[19:06]is too comfortable for us to actually be sincere.

[19:08]We need to be hit with calamities for us to really accept

[19:14]our vulnerability and truly turn to him in a state of how

[19:19]does Allah help the Muslims in bed.

[19:29]Allah says, "You called upon me and I responded." And Allah says,

[19:38]"Indeed, I will reinforce you with a thousand angels coming in ranks."

[19:45]In Bed, the narrations say that some of the companions, they saw

[19:53]things that they couldn't explain.

[19:56]They could feel the presence of angels.

[19:59]They could feel an unseen force aiding them in their fight against

[20:08]the mushri.

[20:08]Sometimes Allah helps with legions of angels.

[20:16]But then Allah says what in the next verse ayah 10 of

[20:20][Applause] Allah allowed you to see to peak into the world of

[20:27]the unseen as a glad tiding.

[20:28]So you never think that you're weak.

[20:31]You might have a small human army, but you have a massive

[20:39]angelic army behind you because it's their first battle.

[20:46]Because Islam is still in its infancy, they needed that boost.

[20:49]Allah says, I wanted to bring tranquility to your hearts.

[20:54]And then Allah reminds them of something that's very important.

[21:00]But remember, it's not the angels that won the battle for you.

[21:07]It's Allah.

[21:09]It wasn't.

[21:07]It wasn't me.

[21:11]Behind these unseen forces is the ultimate force and that is Allah

[21:16]subhana wa ta'ala.

[21:18]So sometimes help comes in the form of unseen forces.

[21:24]In the ayah inahu, one of the ways in which Allah helps

[21:37]those who serve his cause is that he firmly establishes their feet.

[21:44]Meaning that he gives them steadfastness.

[21:49]The best indicator of who is going to win a war, it's

[21:54]not weapons, it's morale.

[21:56]Morale is always going to win.

[22:01]And Allah subhana wa ta says what?

[22:03]That if you help me, I will help you.

[22:05]And one of the ways that I will help you is that

[22:10]I will gift you with unwavering resilience.

[22:14]You'll be unshakable.

[22:16]And I don't know about you brothers and sisters, when I see

[22:20]our our brothers and sisters in Yemen in I see the fulfillment

[22:27]of this promise that you're going to be steadfast and this ayah,

[22:37]you know, if if we fast forward the history of Islam to

[22:42]because what happened over the past couple of months is our community

[22:49]going through a experience.

[22:50]What do I mean by that?

[22:53]You see, in the struggle against injustice, in our pursuit of liberation,

[23:01]we are inevitably going to lose great leaders.

[23:07]We are going to lose inspiring people, people who we see as

[23:15]our backbone.

[23:15]You know, just to give you a little bit of context, if

[23:19]you look at the battle of of something happened in that battle

[23:25]that taught the Muslims a very valuable lesson.

[23:29]You see, in that battle, Abu Sufyan and his cronies, they wanted

[23:36]to get back at the Muslims.

[23:41]They wanted to avenge their dead in bed.

[23:43]So they gathered this massive army.

[23:45]I don't want to go into all of the details, but the

[23:48]battle was so heated that the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasall and by

[23:56]the way unlike other leaders whose sons are at in Miami, our

[24:02]leaders were always in the trenches.

[24:05]The prophet sallallahu alaihi wasall in he was in the middle of

[24:14]the battlefield and he was injured.

[24:16]The prophet sallallahu alaihi wasall just the man who led people in

[24:25]prayer.

[24:22]He also led them into battle.

[24:26]And he was so injured the narrations say that his front teeth

[24:31]were broke.

[24:33]They broke his front teeth in the battle.

[24:36]His face was covered in blood.

[24:37]He was surrounded.

[24:40]So much so that the Muslim army thought that the prophet had

[24:46]been killed.

[24:45]You have the likes of, you know, rallying around the prophet.

[24:52]Ali is there, Abu Dari.

[24:53]They're all rallying around the prophet.

[24:56]But you know when there's a battle in the deserts, the dust

[24:59]rises.

[25:00]It's difficult to hear the clamoring of the swords.

[25:06]Someone yells out.

[25:06]The prophet gets hit in the face.

[25:07]He falls into a ditch in Muhammad has been killed.

[25:17]Musb is martyed and there's a moment in that battle where the

[25:26]moraleum So in that in the heat of the moment you have

[25:45]Muslims wondering should we stop because the prophet the prophet was killed.

[25:51]Some of the Muslims are thinking to themselves, should we retreat because

[25:56]if Muhammad has been killed, what's the point of fighting?

[25:59]And some are thinking, should we abandon Islam because the prophet is

[26:05]gone?

[26:07]Some of the companions they stood, for example, he says, "Oh people,

[26:22]Oh people, wake up.

[26:25]If Muhammad has been killed, know that the Lord of Muhammad has

[26:31]not been killed.

[26:36]Fight.

[26:37]Continue fighting for what he was fighting for and die.

[26:44]and die for the same things that he was willing to lay

[26:48]his life down for.

[26:48]Do you know what Allah does in that moment of confusion?

[26:52]He reveals I verse 144 [Music] Allah says Muhammad is nothing but

[27:10]a messenger.

[27:11]The messengers before him had perished.

[27:14]Ibraim is gone.

[27:17]MS is gone.

[27:20]There were messengers before who left this world.

[27:24]If he dies or if he is killed, are you going to

[27:29]turn back on your heels?

[27:30]What is Allah trying to convey?

[27:33]Allah is trying to convey to the believers that the faith of

[27:42]Islam is not linked to a single individual.

[27:44]Allah is rebuking those who think that if the prophet dies, Islam

[27:53]also dies.

[27:52]You can kill the messenger, but you can't kill the message.

[27:57]And we have to remember this in our modern context.

[28:03]Now I want to mention Ali because you can't you can't mention

[28:09]without paying tribute to the most resilient of God's warriors.

[28:16]There's a narration from Imat where he says Bak he says in

[28:36]the battle of he sustained 61 wounds to nurse Ali's wounds.

[28:51]So they come to the prophet, they spend some time with Ali

[28:56]covering up the wounds and they say to the prophet Allah, every

[29:01]time we close a wound, another one opens up and we are

[29:10]afraid for his life.

[29:12]I want you to listen very very carefully to this so we

[29:16]understand who our leaders are and what kind of tradition we come

[29:19]from.

[29:21]They say that we are afraid for Ali's life.

[29:26]The prophet and the companions, they say, "Okay, let's go see him."

[29:34]He was in this tent, a sort of makeshift hospital.

[29:37]The prophet, he enters.

[29:41]The narrations say that when they saw Ali laying in that bed,

[29:46]they say, "We looked at his body.

[29:49]It's as if his entire body was one wound.

[29:54]He was bleeding profusely.

[29:58]Every spot on his body had a cut.

[30:01]So the prophet, the hadith says the prophet, he starts to wipe

[30:12]on the wounds of Ali.

[30:14]And as he's wiping those 61 wounds, the prophet, he says something.

[30:23]He says, the prophet says, "A man who encounters this for the

[30:37]sake of God, they have truly done their best and they have

[30:41]fulfilled their duty.

[30:45]As the prophet is wiping his wounds, the wounds through the touch

[30:51]of Allah, the suspective it wasn't a victory.

[30:54]Ali saw it as a victory.

[30:57]What does he say?

[31:00]He says to the prophet, he says, "Alhamdulillah." Ali says, "Alhamdulillah.

[31:13]I never retreated and I never gave them my back.

[31:20]That is victory.

[31:23]That is the only people who are fighting a genocide in the

[31:33]trenches.

[31:34]The overwhelming majority of them either subscribe to the Islam that was

[31:38]taught by this man or they were influenced by the Islam that

[31:45]was taught by this man.

[31:49]Do I have your permission to continue?

[31:51]Yeah.

[31:52]I'm always waiting for the brave guy to be like just end

[31:57]it.

[32:05]You know, when I look at what's happening in in Lebanon, there's

[32:15]one battle and it's the battle of Kandak, the battle of Aab

[32:23]because it has more than one name.

[32:25]It's called the battle of Kandak in reference to the the trench

[32:28]that was built around mission of forces to fight the prophet.

[32:35]Now what happens here is interesting and it's it resembles what is

[32:45]happening today.

[32:46]Abu Sufyan assembles an army of over 10,000 and he colludes the

[32:55]tribes of Beni is the Bedwin Arabs they all get together and

[33:03]they march towards Medina here after the Hijra Abu Sufyan has had

[33:08]it because this Muhammad and his followers they keep on intercepting our

[33:14]trade caravan.

[33:17]pants, right?

[33:19]So, very very similar to what the Houthies are doing in the

[33:23]in the Red Sea.

[33:23]We've had it with these people.

[33:24]They're disrupting our economy and now we have to crush them.

[33:31]Okay.

[33:32]So, what do they do?

[33:32]10,000.

[33:33]How many fighters does the prophet have?

[33:37]He has about 2,000 coming in and no one is coming out.

[33:41]Some of us may not realize that the battle of lasted for

[33:48]a month.

[33:48]A month the Muslims dug a trench a narrow trench around Medina

[33:57]that was actually believe in their message they are with the people

[34:01]in the trenches and you know you know what I'm I don't

[34:06]need to be explicit you know the references.

[34:08]So the prophet is there.

[34:11]He's digging.

[34:10]And by the way, when you have 10,000 soldiers at the border

[34:17]of your city, no one, they have to sleep in shifts because

[34:21]if you doze off, an enemy is going to breach the trench.

[34:25]Food is the prophet sallallahu alaihi towards the end of the month,

[34:34]he was so malnourished that the narration say You know when have

[34:43]you seen those commercials of those kids when they're malnourished their bellies

[34:48]become bloated right?

[34:48]So they can get bloated from overeating but they can get bloated

[34:50]from being malnourished.

[34:52]One of the things that they used to do in the past

[34:54]is they used to place heavy stones to reduce that bloating.

[35:00]That's how malnourished the prophet was.

[35:03]And now you have in your own backyard, you have one of

[35:10]the Jewish tribes who are conspiring with the enemies.

[35:13]So you have spies in your backyard.

[35:18]You have an army that's 10,000 strong at your border.

[35:21]Your people are being starved.

[35:22]And then what happens?

[35:27]Allah subhana wa ta'ala in Alan ay 173, what does he say?

[35:30]He mentions the messaging of the say, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, guys.

[35:48]We're outnumbered.

[35:50]It's 10,000 versus 2,000.

[35:53]The entire world has gathered against us.

[35:56]Look at their weapons.

[35:58]Look at their artillery.

[36:00]We don't stand the chance.

[36:05]Be afraid of them.

[36:04]Yield.

[36:06]Bow your head.

[36:08]What does Allah say?

[36:14]The only thing that that did was it in it increased their

[36:20]faith because they understood what?

[36:32]They were not intimidated because what is the message?

[36:37]What does Allah say to the believers when they're in difficult situations?

[36:48]Don't feel weak.

[36:52]Do not grieve because you have the upper hand.

[36:55]If you have and one final point, I promise this is the

[37:04]final point.

[37:05]If we want Allah subhana wa ta'ala to help us, we have

[37:11]to stop bickering with each other.

[37:12]We have to stop fighting with each other.

[37:17]Allah subhana wa ta'ala inah surah 8 verse 46 obey Allah and

[37:26]obey his messenger oh Muslims we do not have a system of

[37:30]anarchy there is a chain of command that has to be respected

[37:37]we are not a leaderless People don't fight with each other.

[37:50]Don't dispute.

[37:50]You will lose your strength.

[37:55]Means literally means wind.

[37:55]You will lose your wind because wind is a powerful force.

[37:58]Wind can move things.

[38:01]Wind can create tsunami.

[38:02]If you want to be people of impact, stop fighting each other.

[38:08]be united.

[38:10]And Allah subhana wa ta'ala he says Allah loves those who fight

[38:24]in his way side by side as if they are one united

[38:27]structure.

[38:28]We ask Allah subhana wa ta'ala to bless us and watchings of

[38:37]Muhammadu.

[38:36]Alhamdulillah leader say the Zam we do so we're here with heavy

[38:48]hearts because as you know over there in the Middle East so

[38:50]it's very hard to be joyous.

[38:51]It's very hard to sit here and celebrate.

[38:53]What do mads usually look like?

[38:54]You usually have a reciter here celebrating.

[38:56]You're clapping.

[38:58]Everyone's in a joyful mood giving out sweets.

[39:01]But right now because of what's happening to time than now to

[39:05]connect with a titan of a figure like a Zabam because through

[39:09]the Zabam we learn exactly what it's like to stay steadfast to

[39:18]faith and to hold on to faith even when times are bleak.

[39:26]over the past year, the videos that have been coming out of

[39:30]Palestine, now Lebanon, you've seen the parallels of tents burning, of children

[39:36]killed, and it was in moments like this that remembered Allahh.

[39:41]They say one of the most fascinating stories I always hear is

[39:45]that say Zab never missed and even she the night after imagine

[39:54]among the tents among the massacred bodies she still prayed she still

[40:00]had faith in Allahh as of course as as we know when

[40:04]they asked her what did you see remember this great legend say

[40:07]the Zam and take from her her faith inshallah hope she can

[40:11]instill some of that faith in us with with what we see

[40:13]in Lebanon and Palestine and rocked and swayed by and she was

[40:24]fed not milk but the dust of Kabala Zanab's crib was rocked

[40:33]and swayed by and she was nursed not milk but the dust

[40:36]of carbala her bones were grown to be bones of resilience Much

[40:42]like the skeleton, or be it the Yemen cloak of Casar, even

[40:48]the tents of the markets would yearn to veil her when she

[40:54]would captive in Syria's bazar.

[40:56]Even the tents of the markets would yearn to veil her when

[41:01]she'd walk as a captive in Syria's bazar.

[41:05]She set a descended upon her like revelation.

[41:08]Carbalah descended upon her like revelation.

[41:11]When mountains would crumble, it would not crumble her for revelation to

[41:19]Zab after Hussein.

[41:20]As if there beneath her veil stood and it is far from

[41:24]far-fetched when she is the daughter of the one who the planets

[41:33]themselves rotate for Zah prostrate to a skull.

[41:34]Her shadow was guided by the one whose very birth left upon

[41:41]the Kaa that we prostrate to a scar the veil of and

[41:47]prevented idols from being placed there by kufur.

[41:51]For the blood of her father flows through her veins.

[41:55]The blood of the certainty of only one Allah.

[41:58]Generosity raised her.

[42:00]Perhaps they would meet Ali, while men would see Zah when they'd

[42:07]see her from afar.

[42:08]Up close, women who'd meet her from afar.

[42:16]It may be that she witnessed the door of her house break.

[42:21]But the hand that broke it, he left the same door a

[42:23]jar, and from it she emerged a light that cannot be.

[42:29]Wherever they are, the hand that hurt her mother, broken, left in

[42:35]ruin.

[42:36]While she rises like a phoenix from the smoke of Medina, she

[42:39]set the standard of patience.

[42:40]A standard bell.

[42:44]Her brother, it's as if they were twins.

[42:47]Abbas and Zan.

[42:51]It's as if they were twins.

[42:56]Abu father and Z in a shrine with tattooed arms.

[42:57]And after visiting Hussein, to her would flock lovers.

[43:01]And at night the eyes would be torn between and earth.

[43:07]For around the dome of her shrine, we would see circle fallen

[43:10]stars.

[43:11]But she was not buried there.

[43:12]She was buried in sham.

[43:14]And how much we yearn for?

[43:18]What are our own hardships when compared to hers?

[43:21]What are our own hardships when compared to hers?

[43:24]And yet her motherly care put sits the hearts of Ali Shia.

[43:36]And when we die and we have sins sitting upon our chests

[43:39]and we who mourn Hussein have no other helperity shall be for

[43:50]us poor souls our interceder and savior inshallah.

[43:54]Z bint Ali the queen of calamity shall be for us poor

[43:58]souls our interceded
