[0:21]alhamdulillah [Music] [Music] last night we began with a topic of why

[0:54]we commemorate the month of muharam and we first started the Night

[1:01]by going through the stories of how much the they wanted to

[1:08]stop these commemorations just like these commemorations that we are having today

[1:13]in Past Times from the very beginning there was a push from

[1:20]theifs of how do we stop these morning ceremonies from taking place

[1:24]and we went over the story of mut that when he was

[1:29]looking around and he was seeing how much love there was in

[1:31]the hearts of the people he first tried certain methods to stop

[1:36]the morning ceremonies and when they didn't work he actually went as

[1:44]far as to demolish the shrine of ab abdah Hussein and even

[1:48]when he demolished the shrine and he destroyed even the traces of

[1:52]where the building had been even then he wasn't able to remove

[1:58]the love that was in the the hearts of the people and

[2:02]we went over that story of even that individual the woman that

[2:05]was in his court whose role was to organize the entertainment sessions

[2:14]of the khif so she would organize people to sing and to

[2:17]dance and to do these different actions even she had ended up

[2:21]going on the Zara of Imam Hussein even in modern times I

[2:28]remember a few years ago I was in AR we were at

[2:29]the walk and one of the things that they told us the

[2:35]guests the hosts that we had they said that during the time

[2:42]of Saddam Saddam was very sensitive when people wanted to go on

[2:45]the AR walk because he felt that it was a threat to

[2:46]his Rule and they said that people they still wanted to do

[2:52]the AR walk they wanted to walk from nef all the way

[2:57]to carala and because they didn't want to be caught by Saddam

[2:59]Hussein's guard s what they would do is that they would walk

[3:02]in the middle of the night whenever no one was watching there

[3:06]was no police there was no agents they would do this AR

[3:10]walk and as soon as daylight came they would then go into

[3:12]the houses of the people that were along the way and they

[3:16]would hide there they would sleep there and then when daytime came

[3:19]again they would rise so historically the they have feared these gatherings

[3:24]just like the one that we are at today and we began

[3:30]this journey of why is it that we commemorate the month of

[3:33]muharam the first reason that we gave was the reason that we

[3:38]are mourning the loss of an individual that had so much to

[3:44]teach us that when you look at a mum an individual that

[3:47]is infallible that is connected to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala you have

[3:51]an individual that can change the very world and so when we

[3:59]have an individual like this that we lose Lo them then there

[4:02]is a mourning process there is a loss that for as long

[4:06]as human history goes on that loss can never be replenished it

[4:10]can never be fixed this was the first reason that we went

[4:14]over the second reason is that we commemorate the love of dun

[4:21]and what that can do to us we went over the story

[4:27]of Omar this individual that had a great love for a piece

[4:30]of land that was called the land of Reay and as a

[4:35]result of that love that he has this love of even though

[4:40]he knows he knows that by killing Imam Hussein his place is

[4:47]going to be the fire of hell that love that he has

[4:48]it pulls him towards the killing of the Imam now when we

[4:54]were going over the story I hope you caught the lesson in

[4:59]it that every single individual every every human being we also create

[5:03]even if we are not that infatuated with the D we create

[5:08]a certain love within our heart of the dun and that creates

[5:14]a separation between us and our Imam today the question that we

[5:20]should be asking ourselves is why is it that we are unable

[5:23]to see our IM there's a barrier there is something which is

[5:28]preventing me from connecting with my IM and we have to admit

[5:33]that at a level there is a love of D that pulls

[5:37]me in One Direction away from my IM you know there was

[5:41]a story that I was listening to maybe a few months ago

[5:45]and it was a story of one of the sh in the

[5:50]Iran AR War one of the individuals that had volunteered and he

[5:53]had fought and he had been martyred and he says something very

[5:58]interesting this individual when I was listening to the story he said

[6:03]that he didn't have the ability to speak so he was born

[6:08]without the ability of speaking and this was maybe in the early

[6:11]1980s the mid 1980s in Iran there wasn't wasn't as common that

[6:16]you could go and for example learn sign language and you could

[6:19]communicate with someone like that and he writes in his will he

[6:24]says that whenever I would try to connect with people whenever I

[6:27]would try to speak with people you know just imagine that you

[6:32]have all of these things that you want to say you want

[6:36]to communicate whenever I will try to communicate with those around me

[6:40]he says that they would make fun of me they would mock

[6:44]me so this was something that was very painful for him and

[6:48]he narrates after his shahada he writes in his will he writes

[6:53]that even though whenever I tried to speak with you you would

[6:58]mock me you would make fun of me he says no that

[6:59]every single day my Imam would speak with me every single day

[7:07]my Imam would communicate with me if this individual was able to

[7:12]communicate with his IM he was able to connect with his Imam

[7:16]then when we are commemorating the story of carala we have to

[7:20]admit that there is something which is blocking us from being able

[7:25]to see and to communicate with our IM and in many cases

[7:29]it is nothing other than the love of dun that was reason

[7:34]number two reason number three and inshallah this is the start of

[7:38]today's lecture we commemorate and we mourn Imam hussein.

[7:43]and this is possibly the most important reason because when we look

[7:48]at Imam Hussein we recognize that the Imam is the cause of

[7:51]Islam being saved from complete destruction if you look at every other

[7:57]religion in the world you see these deviations that that religion today

[8:03]it is nothing like when that religion was first revealed a th

[8:08]2,000 3,000 years ago when Imam Hussein he's about to rise up

[8:12]he looks at the religion of Islam he looks at the rulership

[8:17]of yazid and he sees that all of those little deviations that

[8:20]had been introduced into the religion from the earliest days he sees

[8:25]that they are reaching a point where they are about to completely

[8:29]walk Wipe Out the religion of Islam the fact that today we

[8:35]can come and we can commemorate the fact that today we can

[8:37]open up the Quran and it is the same Quran with the

[8:42]same interpretation as the time of the fact that we can pray

[8:46]we can fast we can connect with Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala all

[8:49]of these things it goes back to the sacrifice of Imam Hussein

[8:55]you know today you look at the religions of Christianity you look

[8:58]at the religion of Judaism it is so so altered you speak

[9:02]to a Christian brother you say that your belief in God can

[9:07]you explain it to me they say that yes God is three

[9:09]but he is one he is one but he is three you

[9:13]don't even know what is going on then they say okay well

[9:17]I'll explain it to you that God is like an egg it's

[9:19]reached the point where they are trying to make a metaphor of

[9:23]God in relationship with an egg you look at Judaism the alterations

[9:27]that have happened within the idea that a group of people is

[9:33]the chosen ones of God that God has created all of these

[9:35]human beings on this Earth an ethnic group over the other these

[9:41]are the deviations and worse that we would have seen in Islam

[9:47]if im Hussein had not risen up you know a few weeks

[9:49]ago I was looking at a video online and it was a

[9:55]very nice Jewish lady she was explaining that in their religion they

[9:58]have something just like are hijab and then she explained that the

[10:04]way that they practice hijab they have a little bit of a

[10:07]loophole that they are supposed to cover their hair but what they

[10:13]do in order to cover their hair is that they cover their

[10:16]hair with someone else's hair and so usually that wig is even

[10:22]more luxurious it's even more beautiful than their own hair the hair

[10:25]that they themselves have and so we see all of these deviations

[10:28]all of these alterations Islam stands unique amongst all of the religions

[10:33]of the world and so we owe everything to IM Al Hussein

[10:38]the fourth reason is that when we commemorate the month of muharam

[10:45]we commemorate the sacrifice of Imam Hussein it allows us to reform

[10:49]ourselves and I'm sure that all of you have experienced this that

[10:55]there was something that maybe you were struggling with during the rest

[10:58]of the year there was some problem that you had with the

[10:59]Halal with theam maybe you were having issues with the hijab you

[11:06]were having issues with the Salah you were having issues maybe at

[11:08]a line of work where the income was not Halal and you

[11:14]remember the story ofala you connect with Imam Hussein and through that

[11:19]connection you get the strength to fix that issue that you were

[11:25]dealing with I don't know how many people they've been struggling months

[11:28]and months years and years they are struggling with an issue and

[11:32]they weep over Imam Hussein after a few tears they feel that

[11:37]connection they feel that strength within themselves to stand against whatever they

[11:43]are facing when you look at the story of Imam Hussein it

[11:46]is the story of growth it is a story of change and

[11:51]I mentioned a few last night actually it feels like a few

[11:53]days ago last time I mentioned that even in Shia countries even

[11:57]criminals are reformed by the the story of Imam Hussein that that

[12:04]individual that for his entire life he is stealing he's a career

[12:08]criminal he is drinking he is using drugs when the month of

[12:13]mam comes something changes within him he says in honor of I'm

[12:17]going to stay away from this sin and many times he sticks

[12:22]to it that even after the month has finished he doesn't go

[12:25]back to that crime and that criminal lifestyle that he had and

[12:29]so the holy month of muharam it is a month of change

[12:33]for us that if you can connect to the story this is

[12:36]the month that if you are facing any challenges in your life

[12:39]utilize the energy utilize the tear utilize the sorrow in order to

[12:47]move towards Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala this was reason number four reason

[12:51]number five and this is such an important one when we commemorate

[13:00]carala we are reminding ourselves of the failure of the majority to

[13:06]do their Duty and here I want to stop all of us

[13:09]because when we begin to think about carala and I mentioned this

[13:15]yesterday we often times think about the failure of those people they

[13:21]failed their Imam but I want to bring us into this picture

[13:25]that is it possible that we are failing our Imam because if

[13:32]we don't think about it with this Dynamic then the story of

[13:37]carala it doesn't have much use for me and you when you

[13:39]look during the time of IM Hussein one of the things that

[13:43]is clear is that the vast majority of the people of his

[13:46]time the people of kufa the people of Medina the people of

[13:50]Mecca the people of the Muslim World they knew what their Duty

[13:56]was towards AB abdah they knew but the issue that they had

[14:02]is that in order to help the IM it would have entailed

[14:05]loss and in order to bring this home I wanted to give

[14:11]you all an example tonight imagine that your Imam Rises tonight the

[14:18]second night of muharam he rises and for example sake will make

[14:25]him rise perhaps in the city of Dearborn he comes and he

[14:29]announces maybe even in this audience he announces that for example I

[14:37]am IM these are the proofs and I am calling upon people

[14:40]to volunteer for my cause he says but there is a few

[14:46]issues that I have to tell you about first number one if

[14:49]you want to join my cause then it is guaranteed that you

[14:56]are going to lose your homes just imagine the homes that you

[14:59]have the com for those homes bring you how many years you

[15:01]have worked to pay off the mortgages and to have a home

[15:05]the Imam says if you join me tonight you are going to

[15:10]lose your home so just imagine how that would feel that after

[15:13]the program and maybe you would have to stay for the Arabic

[15:16]and you would have to continue staying because you don't have a

[15:20]home anymore imagine how that would feel that afterwards I don't have

[15:23]anything to go to he says number two you're going to lose

[15:25]your job so you can say wasam to your job as well

[15:30]number three you are going to lose all of the savings that

[15:35]you have worked so hard all of these years to gain you're

[15:38]going to lose all of these things now he's not even asking

[15:43]you that you're going to risk your life he's not saying that

[15:45]he's simply saying that you're going to have some Financial loss and

[15:49]he promises you that eventually there will be recompensation and there will

[15:54]be reward in the as well but today there is loss how

[15:59]many of us would be willing to join the Imam and it's

[16:06]a question alhamdulillah I see many hands in the front of the

[16:10]young Brothers alhamdulillah this is something that we really have to think

[16:15]about that if there was this level of loss would we hesitate

[16:19]even a little bit would we hesitate would we say that you

[16:24]know I have all of these things I've worked for so many

[16:26]years for I don't really want to lose all of these things

[16:32]you know during the events of carella one of the things that

[16:35]really breaks the heart is that AWI has narrated he says that

[16:37]when the Battle of caral was taking place just imagine 30,000 individuals

[16:42]that are surrounding a band of less than 100 he says that

[16:48]when this battle was taking place I looked and appears he was

[16:50]on the side of the enemy he says I looked on the

[16:54]foothills of the hills that surrounded The Plains of carala and I

[16:58]saw the Elders of kufa and these Elders of kufa they had

[17:03]gathered these individuals that had all of the power they were tribal

[17:06]leaders he says they had gathered on the foothills of kuf he

[17:11]says I saw that tears were streaming down their faces until it

[17:15]had soaked the would we actually rise up to help them regardless

[17:18]of the tremendous cost number five and inshallah everyone is still with

[17:26]me let's recite a loud salawat number six when we mourn one

[17:41]of the things that we are reminding ourselves is that Islam is

[17:48]not just a religion that has to do acts of I and

[17:51]this is one of the clearest of signs when you look at

[17:55]the rise of Imam Hussein when you look at the reasons why

[17:57]the Imam Rises one of the clearest signs is that if Islam

[18:02]was just a religion where you go and you do your Salah

[18:06]and you do your s and you go on the Hajj pilgrimage

[18:10]and you don't have anything to do with the leaders that are

[18:12]in place and you don't have anything to do with the community

[18:15]the society you're disconnected from all of those things if this was

[18:23]the case then there is no doubt that Imam Hussein would have

[18:25]remained and by the way many people when they saw that the

[18:28]IM was about rise they had the same idea they look this

[18:31]has nothing to do with you we do our Salah we do

[18:34]our s we go on the Hajj pilgrimage we do all of

[18:38]the things that we are Duty bound to do in Islam leave

[18:40]the Allah will deal with them Imam Hussein's rise it shows that

[18:45]Islam has a very deep connection with the society around us you

[18:52]cannot live as a drop of water in the ocean without being

[18:58]assimilated and being washed away by the water many times we miss

[19:03]this point when we look at the mar one of the things

[19:08]that is really interesting I'm not going to mention the name of

[19:11]this scholar but he has written a book in relation to the

[19:18]connection between Islam and Islamic governance in his book he mentions the

[19:22]following I wanted to read this to you inshallah it's very amazing

[19:26]when you see the connection that Islam has with all all of

[19:29]society he says the following and by the way many times we

[19:34]think the opposite of what he says he says the proportion of

[19:38]the quranic verses concerned with the Affairs of society to those concerned

[19:47]with ritual worship is greater than 100 to one usually we think

[19:52]it's the opposite when you open the pages of the Quran we

[19:53]think that every single verse is in regards to Salah and S

[20:00]and the HJ pilgrimage this scholar he says no no no it's

[20:03]actually the opposite that for every one verse that has to do

[20:09]with Salah there are a hundred other verses that have to do

[20:12]with Society they have to do with economics they have to do

[20:14]with politics they have to do with how you deal with other

[20:19]human beings he says this is the reality of Islam then he

[20:21]goes and he explains the books of aith at least we should

[20:26]say okay the books of Hadith those are going to be all

[20:30]about fasting and praying and Hajj and again he says the following

[20:35]he says that of the approximately 50 sections of the books of

[20:40]Hadith containing all of the laws of Islam just imagine how many

[20:45]thousands and tens of thousands of Hadith are in those books he

[20:48]says no more than two or three of them are concerned with

[20:55]the ritual acts of worship now here this doesn't mean that the

[20:58]Salah and the sound these are not important they are extremely important

[21:01]but it means that in order for us to establish the true

[21:07]Salah the true fasting you have to also be concerned with what

[21:10]is happening in the society around you then he continues and he

[21:16]says that all of these sections they are related to the matters

[21:19]of the duties of man towards his creator and he says then

[21:25]a few more are also concerned with questions of ethics and then

[21:28]all of the rest are concerned with social economic legal and political

[21:34]matters when you look at the rise of the Imam one of

[21:38]the things that is so clear is that if there is oppression

[21:42]taking place on the face of this Earth if you see Muslims

[21:47]that are being hurt that are being killed then you have a

[21:50]duty to stand up you can't say that this has nothing to

[21:53]do with me I'm going to go and I'm going to pray

[21:56]and I'm going to fast and Allah is going to deal with

[22:00]with that that's something for Allah today when you look at what

[22:03]is taking place in Philistine I've seen many people they say that

[22:07]I'm not willing to say anything you know if I say something

[22:13]I have a nice job I have a position in the society

[22:14]I have all of these things that I have worked for year

[22:19]after year after year if I say something God forbid I'm going

[22:21]to lose and I'm going to lose everything now we're not asking

[22:26]anyone to be foolish in the way that they approach things it's

[22:29]Islam says that you should be measured in the way that you

[22:31]deal with issues but if you are afraid today to say a

[22:38]simple word about what is happening in Philistine if I am afraid

[22:43]that if I say something I'm going to lose this cushy lifestyle

[22:46]then is it possible that when my Imam returns I'm going to

[22:53]have the same behavior towards my IM something very scary when you

[23:02]think abouta and then you bring it to the year 2024 and

[23:04]you ask yourself the question that if I was there in that

[23:09]situation today and I was asked to sacrifice would I sacrifice in

[23:14]the cause of my Imam or would I be just like everyone

[23:16]else that goes with the flow so this is also a very

[23:23]important and by the way there is a tradition and this tradition

[23:25]it gets me every time that the one who wakes up in

[23:37]the morning he rises in the morning and he's not concerned with

[23:41]the Affairs of the Muslims he doesn't really care he says alhamdulillah

[23:45]I have a nice job I have a nice house I don't

[23:49]really care about what is going on with others whether in my

[23:52]own Community or whether around the world I just don't care his

[23:58]heart is empty of that he's not concerned he says that he

[24:03]is not from us he is not from one of the Muslims

[24:06]that in essence says this individual who doesn't care he's left the

[24:12]fold of Islam practically speaking inah this is another question reason number

[24:18]seven and inshallah this will be the final reason for tonight when

[24:25]we mourn we remember that the one that connects to Allah subhanahu

[24:30]wa taala he becomes Eternal and he becomes Immortal and the one

[24:36]who connects to the issues of this D no matter how much

[24:41]power he accumulates no matter what he gains in this world eventually

[24:45]he finds that his name is completely forgotten a few days ago

[24:53]I was looking at an Instagram story and this brother had gone

[24:57]to do Zara of course it was a different kind of Zara

[25:01]but he had gone to do Zara in Syria and he had

[25:06]decided that he wanted to go and he wanted to visit the

[25:09]shrine of muaah so he goes and he says that there was

[25:13]a graveyard where they said that the grave of muaah is found

[25:18]within this area so he says I looked up and down down

[25:23]and up left and right I went everywhere trying to find this

[25:26]grave and it seems like no one wanted to tell him they

[25:29]probably realized that he was Iranian and what he was going to

[25:32]do that no one was willing to tell me where the grave

[25:36]of muya was located he says eventually after a lot of difficulty

[25:40]I realized that there was a certain spot which was the grave

[25:47]of mua and he actually was videotaping he goes up to the

[25:50]grave and he says I was really surprised that when I went

[25:53]up to the Grave I saw that there was not just one

[25:57]bar of iron I don't know if You' ever seen in a

[26:01]prison they have the rows of fencing and iron that prevents people

[26:05]from escaping he says there was not just one bar there was

[26:10]three bars and it was so thick that you really couldn't see

[26:13]the inside of the grave now what's interesting is that during the

[26:19]time of maaah at the height of his power what does muya

[26:24]do he tries to crush the name of Ali Talib and he

[26:29]does everything in his power how can I remove the name of

[26:32]aliali from the hearts of the Believers and one of the things

[26:38]that he does one of the things that he does he institutes

[26:40]the official cursing of Ali Talib during every official prayer throughout the

[26:47]Muslim world I want you to imagine this every Friday prayer that

[26:54]the Muslims would go to for decades one of the the parts

[27:01]and Parcels of the religious practices of it was to curse Al

[27:07]every Eid prayer that you would go the again he was Duty

[27:13]bound to curse the name of Al Talib to slander the name

[27:19]of Ali Talib and this was official policy for 60 or 70

[27:21]years until it was eventually removed that should have been enough to

[27:26]remove any trace of love of from the hearts of the people

[27:32]many people they wonder that how in the world after all of

[27:38]that propaganda after all of the that were fabricated all of the

[27:41]things that are said how in the world does the name of

[27:43]Ali still remain in the hearts of the people and then you

[27:50]juxtapose the position of muaah today that his Shrine or his grave

[27:58]they have to protect MUA from the hatred of the Muslims and

[28:00]by the way the reason why I had the three levels of

[28:04]bars was that the Believers would go and they would throw trash

[28:07]into the grave of mua this was one of the practices so

[28:12]they were trying to prevent and it become such an issue that

[28:14]every couple of days they had to go and clean up the

[28:18]grave they eventually came to the realization that they have to do

[28:22]something to prevent all the trash from being thrown today you go

[28:24]to the shrine of look at how many people are surrounding the

[28:32]grave of Ali you see the one who connects to Allah he

[28:37]becomes Immortal he becomes Eternal his memory cannot be removed no matter

[28:41]how much human beings with however much power however much should they

[28:48]try and we similarly we look at the story of yazid and

[28:50]we compare it with the story of IM Al Hussein during the

[28:54]time you all know the story that IM Hussein he is murdered

[28:58]he's murdered with all of his companions his family is taken as

[29:04]captives they are paraded in humiliation from one Muslim City to another

[29:09]Muslim City and during that time period it looked as if Imam

[29:12]Hussein had been completely defeated today I want you to find any

[29:17]trace of yazid we don't even know where he's buried he is

[29:21]such a hated figure that we don't even know where his grave

[29:25]is And yet when we look at Imam Hussein we find that

[29:30]everyone has gathered around and not only have they gathered around the

[29:33]physical Shrine but we see inspiration taking place from the movement of

[29:38]the Imam the name of Imam Hussein has become Eternal you know

[29:43]today when you look at every movement that is actually standing with

[29:47]the oppressed people of Palestine you see that they are the same

[29:50]people who are remembering the name of IM Al Hussein these were

[29:56]a few reasons inshallah I hope that it was of some benefit

[30:00]I wanted to end tonight's program with a few points just to

[30:05]add on and that was that when the month of muharam arrives

[30:10]sometimes we don't think too much about it we just attend the

[30:13]programs and we we weep and we mourn and we commemorate I

[30:18]wanted to give a few points of advice inshallah on some things

[30:22]which can enhance and allow our I during this month to become

[30:29]next level the first thing whenever you see the beginning of the

[30:32]month of muharam and this applies to every holy month and every

[30:36]holy time is that you should always enter the month by doing

[30:41]and I don't just mean by saying I don't mean by verbally

[30:48]doing what I mean by this is that when you enter the

[30:52]month of M one of the things that we should all do

[30:56]is we should seek forgiveness from Allah from all of our past

[31:02]mistakes seriously that we turn towards Allah we say yaah Allah this

[31:06]individual that I am today I'm not happy with who I am

[31:11]I'm ashamed of who I am I've committed mistakes I haven't done

[31:15]all of the things that you wanted me to do and so

[31:17]that that that we do it should be something that comes from

[31:23]the depths of our heart that we really ask Ya Allah please

[31:26]take all of the mistakes that I have made fix all of

[31:30]these issues so that when I enter into the month of Mam

[31:32]and when I am shedding tears over abdah I am shedding tears

[31:38]with a pure heart with a heart that is not saddled with

[31:41]sins this is number one that our Toba is something which is

[31:48]very sincere during this month number two and this is such an

[31:51]important thing is that when we enter into the holy month of

[31:54]muharam we should ask ourselves this question who is it that I

[32:01]want to become as religious people we enter into the month of

[32:06]Ramadan we enter into the month of muharam with a very vague

[32:11]idea of the person that we want to be when the month

[32:13]ends when the ash ends and often times when we enter and

[32:17]we have a very fuzzy idea of who we want to become

[32:20]we end up leaving the month with really nothing changing within us

[32:24]yes we cry and we are affected but as soon as the

[32:28]month changes we tend to go back to the same person that

[32:33]we were before the month began and so it's very important that

[32:35]each and every one of us we sit down even take pen

[32:41]and paper and ask yourself this question what are my weaknesses what

[32:45]are my strengths what are the things that in this ash in

[32:50]this month in this two months what are the things that I

[32:56]want to see change Within Myself and begin to practically map that

[32:58]out that these are the issues that I have and these are

[33:02]the ways in which I am going to change myself often times

[33:05]when we write the Practical steps it really helps us and it

[33:08]really allows us to achieve that end goal I'll give a very

[33:13]simple example if someone has an issue with being generous you know

[33:16]sometimes we have this problem being generous we don't want to give

[33:19]towards the cause of Allah if we have this issue one of

[33:23]the ways that we could do it is we could say to

[33:27]ourselves every single day during the ash I'm going to set an

[33:29]amount aside and I'm going to donate that amount in the way

[33:33]of Allah whether there's orphanages whatever it may be I'm going to

[33:37]donate that amount and so you make it a daily habit you

[33:40]break it into little bits and pieces that are easier for you

[33:44]to handle and so it's the same with anything else if you

[33:46]have for example a goal of praying Sal I want to really

[33:52]begin to do Salat regularly but it's really hard to wake up

[33:56]and it's difficult and I'm tired at that end of the night

[34:00]just tell yourself one thing I will only do one ra make

[34:03]it very easy for yourself don't say I'm going to do all

[34:07]11 Reas say I'm going to start for the sake of Imam

[34:08]Hussein I'm going to start with one single Raa how many minutes

[34:14]is that takes one minute I'm going to take one minute out

[34:16]of this 24 hours that Allah has given me how can we

[34:20]say no to that one minute we make it difficult upon ourselves

[34:22]to say no to those actions and so this is very important

[34:27]map out what you you want to do what you want to

[34:28]achieve who you want to be and inshallah you will achieve that

[34:33]step by step by step and the third and the final point

[34:36]for tonight is avoid dun as much as possible now many of

[34:44]you are going to say but I'm not involved in Haram and

[34:48]inshallah that is the case alhamdulillah that is the case that for

[34:51]the most part the Believers we don't have issues with for example

[34:56]Haram income right there's no issue with with Haram money that is

[35:00]coming our way but one of the advice that the they give

[35:05]they say that [Music] even can sometimes take you away from Imam

[35:11]Hussein it can take you away from Allah and by that we

[35:17]all have things that we enjoy doing we have hobbies we have

[35:20]things that maybe we love a little bit too much even though

[35:25]it's perfectly Halal there's nothing wrong with it but it's a good

[35:28]habit that at least for these 10 nights at least for this

[35:31]period of mam we make it a habit where we say look

[35:34]for this period I'm not going to look up any videos on

[35:39]YouTube I'm not going to research I'm not going to think about

[35:43]it I'm going to set that piece of D that I love

[35:46]within myself I'm going to set it aside for the sake of

[35:49]sh and so using these steps inshallah we can really achieve a

[35:55]higher level of closeness to Allah subhana wa tala during this holy

[35:59]month of muharam
