A young man was stabbed to death on a busy street in London. The police have not confirmed if he was a member of a gang, but it s not hard to imagine the impact this could have had on his family and friends.
00:02:49.000To start crying like a baby. And it shows you the reality of this lifestyle, yeah.
00:02:55.000Now, there's a lot of lessons that we can learn from this.
00:02:57.000So, for example, the mum. Imagine the mum is crying and shouting because she knows her son's going to go to jail.
00:03:02.000He's done something wrong. She's upset. Nobody wants to see their child like that.
00:03:05.000Then from the other angle, it's the fact that this guy who's carrying that knife.
00:03:10.000Imagine if he killed and stabbed somebody like the youngsters that are dying every day.
00:03:16.000Imagine this mother, well, you can say, thank God, in a way, didn't see their son stabbed to death.
00:03:26.000So, their son potentially could have stabbed someone to death, but might end up in jail and she was upset.
00:03:31.000And that was heartbreaking for us all. You know, that's why we stopped recording.
00:03:34.000But imagine now all the family members who have seen or heard or had a phone call that your loved one stabbed to death and they died.
00:03:43.000And that man over there on the floor is maybe one of those people that are responsible for these attacks that are happening.
00:03:49.000And we need to learn a lesson from these, my brothers and sisters, and understand that, look, this life is a delusion.
00:03:54.000You need to understand this life is a delusion. And chasing this life is not going to bring you nothing.
00:04:00.000These people who are pushing this lifestyle, be it gardens, gangs, girls, all this kind of stuff, they are not allowed about this life.
00:04:08.000They just chat. They just, a lot of these rappers that you talk about, do talk about gangs and this, that, they get caught in the court, on the road and they get robbed.
00:04:17.000Yeah, they get robbed and they start crying out, allow me, allow me. Yeah.
00:04:20.000There's a lot of this because they're not about this life. It's all fake. Yeah.
00:04:23.000So don't get caught up in the madness, the crazy stuff that's happening.
00:04:27.000Look, I had my Jahiliya. Yeah. I was involved in certain gangs and stuff like that. Yeah.
00:04:34.000And let me tell you something. You think you're a gang member or whoever you are until somebody puts a gun to your face or a knife, you start crying.
00:04:41.000The biggest man was like, Oh, please allow me, allow me. Yeah. Okay. One bullet and you're finished.
00:04:46.000No matter how big you are, how hinge you are, what kind of bulletproof vest you have, no problem.
00:04:50.000One bullet to your head, you're gone. One knife to a vital organ, you're finished. Yeah. You're finished.
00:04:56.000And it just doesn't end there. You would wish that it ends there. Okay. I'm dead. I'm done. No, it doesn't end there, brother.
00:05:02.000That's now the beginning. Yeah. Now you're going to answer your Lord. You're going to answer to your Lord.
00:05:07.000Allah is going to ask you, I've given you this wealth. I've given you the health. I've given you this, this and this.
00:05:13.000What did you do with it? Oh Allah, I did nothing. I was fighting. I thought I owned the area called N15, N19, NW this, NW that.
00:05:22.000And I was fighting for this territory. Oh, did I own the territory? No. Oh Allah, I just deluded myself and believed that this is my end.
00:05:30.000Nobody can come to my end. I'm going to prove my point. I have to prove a point. So I'm going to come and stab you and do this and kill you over property that I don't own.
00:05:40.000Yeah. This is how crazy and wild it's become. And you're destroying lives. You're not just killing the person innocently.
00:05:49.000Yeah. The prophet said, one of the signs of the hour is that the person who's dying doesn't know why he's dying.
00:05:56.000The person who's killing doesn't know why he's killing. Yeah. So we need to understand that when you're killing somebody, it's not just that person that's dying.
00:06:04.000You're killing their family members every day. They're dying every day. They're going to die every day. Yeah.
00:06:09.000You wouldn't want that for your family members. Yeah. So brothers and sisters, please come to your senses.
00:06:15.000Wallahi, you're just deluding yourself. Fix up. I had to come to a realization where I said, look, this is all nonsense.
00:06:22.000The people, believe me, I had my jahiliyyah where I would go and fight for everybody, help them, this, that. Wallahi, once, once.
00:06:29.000Look, I'm telling you, I've never shared this in my life. First time I've ever shared it. I got jumped once.
00:06:34.000All the people that I helped, wallahi, none of them came to help me. All the, I was like, look, bro, I was there for you, I was there for you.
00:06:39.000None of them came to help me. So it's these realizations. You have to be clever. Be clever. Learn from other people's mistakes.
00:06:48.000Leave this lifestyle. Leave it. And another thing is the rights of your parents. Your mom.
00:06:56.000A man came to Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam and said, who has more rights over me?
00:07:00.000He said, your mother. And then who? He said, your mother. And then who? He said, your mother. And then who? He said, then your father. Yeah.
00:07:05.000Your parents have rights over you. Yeah. And your mom, when you put your mom through that torture, wallahi, you're going to be punished.
00:07:14.000Allah says in the Quran, after I ask you to worship me, open your parents. Be good to your parents.
00:07:21.000Abdullah ibn Umar saw a man, radiallahu anh, he saw a man carrying his mom doing tawaf around the Kaaba.
00:07:29.000And as he was doing that, he was humiliating himself. He was saying, I'm my mother's humble camel. I'm my mother's humble camel. Yeah.
00:07:36.000After he did the tawaf, he came to Abdullah ibn Umar and he said, have I paid back my mom for what she's done for me?
00:07:43.000He said, you did not pay her back for one uf, she said when she gave birth to you.
00:07:48.000And look at this child, what he's putting his parents through. His mom. Look at his mom crying out loud.
00:07:55.000Wallahi, shall I tell you something? One of the companions, when his mother died, he was crying so much.
00:08:00.000He said, one of my doors to Jannah is gone. One of my doors to Jannah is gone. Wallahi, you'll never get another mom.
00:08:07.000You will never ever ever get another mom. Believe me, believe me, believe me. Wallahi, this is a reminder to myself first.
00:08:14.000Your door to Jannah, your success in this life, obedience to your parents, your mother specifically, and your father of course.
00:08:21.000Your mother, your mother, Wallahi, I'm telling you, kiss her feet. I'm telling you, kiss her feet.
00:08:28.000Whatever she says to you, we are told not to even say uf to our mother, uf. Yeah?
00:08:34.000And it's a reminder to me, I'm not going to become an angel. There's a lot of things I need to work on.
00:08:37.000But my mother, I try my best. Wallahi, before I leave the door, I will say, mom, please make dua for me.
00:08:43.000If there's a little thing, if I've realized that I've upset my mom a little bit, Wallahi, I get scared of leaving this door.
00:08:48.000I don't know if Allah will send a calamity to him. I say, mom, please forgive me, etc.
00:08:52.000If I've upset you in any way, directly, indirectly, forgive me.
00:08:56.000And I ask because Wallahi, I know my mother's dua, Imam Bukhari, he was a blind man. He was blind.
00:09:04.000His mom made his mom's constant duas. Yeah? Even there is a real life story of a man who's an Imam of the Haram.
00:09:12.000Yeah? And he told the story where his mom would make dua and say, every time, look at this, look at how beautiful the caravan is.
00:09:20.000Every time she was angry, usually mom's curse. Yeah? And Wallahi, it's dangerous. It scares me, you know?
00:09:25.000If my mom, before, back in the days, I used to be naughty, etc.
00:09:31.000Today, thinking about it, Wallahi, if my mom was to curse me, Wallahi, I would think, anytime, I don't know what would happen.
00:09:38.000Yeah? Alhamdulillah, she doesn't, may Allah bless you, she always makes dua.
00:09:41.000But the issue is that this mother would always say, may Allah make you the Imam of the Kaaba.
00:09:47.000And this is what he would always, she would always say. And this man ended up being the Imam of the Kaaba.
00:09:51.000It's a real story, real story. It's on YouTube. You can watch it.
00:09:54.000Be obedient. This is your success. And Wallahi, the biggest destruction. Anybody, Wallahi, I've had witnesses.
00:10:01.000I have seen people who swear at their mother, who hit their mother. Yeah? Violent animals. Violent animals.
00:10:09.000I have not seen Wallahi. I have not seen success in them. They have become lost, corrupted souls.
00:10:15.000Lost, corrupted souls. So, brothers and sisters, obey your parents. And shall I tell you something?
00:10:21.000Obedience, what is that? A lot of people are going to say, my mother has passed away. How am I going to do obedience?
00:10:26.000We are told, the Prophet ï·º has told us, if I'm not mistaken, obedience to your parents, even if they have passed away is what?
00:10:35.000That, one of them is that you do good to their friends. You visit their friends often. This is number one, number one.
00:10:40.000Number two is that you make dua for them. That's a form of obedience. Do you understand that?
00:10:45.000Even if they have passed away, you still can be obedient to them by praying for them. That's a form of obedience.
00:10:53.000Make dua for them. When you're praying for Fajr, etc., make dua.
00:10:57.000Every day I make dua. Oh Allah, guide my father to Islam. Open his heart to Islam.
00:11:01.000Make my mom come closer to Islam. Pray, etc.
00:11:05.000My brother, my family members, that is their right upon me. Yeah?
00:11:12.000And I do that, inshallah. And I ask you guys to do the same.
00:11:15.000And let's not have these scenes. And we ask this brother who has been arrested, he changes life around, he repents, he comes closer to God, and he makes us happy.
00:11:24.000The pleasure of Allah, inshallah, is at the pleasure of the parents. That's why he says, after you obey me, obey your mom. Yeah?
00:11:32.000And the one whose disobedience to his Lord, of course, will not care about his parents.
00:11:37.000It's a little reminder from you, dear brothers and sisters. May Allah bless you guys for watching, inshallah.
00:11:41.000I hope you guys have benefited. If I missed out on anything, forgive me, inshallah. If I've said anything wrong, it's from Shaytan and myself.
00:11:47.000And everything good is from Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala. May Allah bless you guys till next time, inshallah.
