7 POWERFUL LESSONS FROM GENOCIDE AND OPPRESSION

0:00 [SPEAKER_00]: Every generation may witness at some point, may witness an experience like this in the world and automatically be classified in one of four categories. [SPEAKER_00]: Among some the one who is killing, amongst them the one who is a victim, they are pressed. [SPEAKER_00]: Among them is the one who is watching, a number four, the one who is a witness, and there's a distinction between these two.

0:24 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah Subhanata Allah tells us in a timeless recitation, Qutida al-Shabu l-Okhudud, the people of the ditch, Allah Subhanata Allah cursed those who committed an act that is heinous and act that is evil, an act that's atrocious of the one that Allah Subhanata Allah preserved in a timeless recitation for us and for every generation thereafter.

0:49 [SPEAKER_00]: And we know this story, and that he'll upload when Allah SWT is referring to the people of the ditch amongst the part of the story includes the believers who all submitted upon seeing a clear sign of Allah in the story of the boy in the king. [SPEAKER_00]: That's beyond the scope of just this particular hotba.

1:08 [SPEAKER_00]: But there may not be reason that I'm starting with this. [SPEAKER_00]: It's to emphasize like many other historical moments Allah SWT preserves. [SPEAKER_00]: with his perfect wisdom, and his mercy, and his justice, all that we need to understand our role in society, and the experiences and observations that we see.

1:30 [SPEAKER_00]: Now, once in this Surah, do you see an explicit reference to the king, not in the Surah itself? [SPEAKER_00]: We have it in the Tafseed, we have in Authentic Ahadi. [SPEAKER_00]: There's nothing mentioned about what happens to him in this world after this moment of killing [SPEAKER_00]: We don't know of the consequence of the dunya.

1:51 [SPEAKER_00]: We also recognize in that story that it wasn't just a king that there were observers, there were witnesses to what happened. [SPEAKER_00]: There were people watching believers burned a life and a loss of panatana preserved that detail as well. [SPEAKER_00]: Wa huma ala amai a faduna bil mo minina shuhud.

2:09 [SPEAKER_00]: They are witnesses to what they have done to the believers. [SPEAKER_00]: And in this, some of the scholars of Tafseev say there's a preservation in the story of a pattern that exists unfortunately throughout time. [SPEAKER_00]: And that, in many cases, every generation may witness at some point, may witness an experience like this in the world, and automatically be classified in one of four categories.

2:35 [SPEAKER_00]: Among some of the one who is killing, amongst them the one who is a victim, they are pressed. [SPEAKER_00]: Amongst them is the one who is watching a number four, the one who is a witness. [SPEAKER_00]: And there's a distinction between these two. [SPEAKER_00]: What I want to take in Shalataada from this moment that we are in.

2:52 [SPEAKER_00]: In a timeless way with the frameworks that we have in the Qur'an and Sunnah is to look at some of the general patterns and lessons from ethnic cleansing or genocide and it's not fixed to one type or one case study. [SPEAKER_00]: But rather we can see from the Qur'an and Sunnah the world that we are in and the history that we have access to.

3:12 [SPEAKER_00]: The genocide has ripple effects no doubt in the land that it's in, but it also affects those who observe. [SPEAKER_00]: It affects those who watch. [SPEAKER_00]: And when we talk about genocide, it's not disconnected from how you treat your family at home. [SPEAKER_00]: When we talk about some of these lessons, it's not disconnected from how people treat one another in general, especially in a pluralistic society.

3:34 [SPEAKER_00]: Lesson number one is that most times ethnic cleansing and genocide began with words, [SPEAKER_00]: way before it resorted to violence or weapons. [SPEAKER_00]: It began with dehumanization. [SPEAKER_00]: It began with propaganda. [SPEAKER_00]: And this is something you see throughout history.

3:52 [SPEAKER_00]: You see this in the time of the Prophet, Salallahu alaihi wa-sallam, the propaganda that they facilitated through their poetry, through the political elites, the lies that they spread in other words, to dehumanize. [SPEAKER_00]: and politicians and people who have political power know how to utilize this, how to weaponize it.

4:08 [SPEAKER_00]: How to distract their followers, look at that group. [SPEAKER_00]: They're the ones that are causing your misery. [SPEAKER_00]: When that same king or politician or ruler is the one who is the cause of oppression. [SPEAKER_00]: We have an example in Firauna as well in the Firauna, ala, fila, ala, liwa, jada, ala, shia, yastodari, fupa, ifata, minhum.

4:26 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah SWT tells us, [SPEAKER_00]: that the Pharaoh in this particular sort of specific Pharaoh fit out, exalted himself in the land, and divided the people up into factions, deeming a group amongst them to be weak. [SPEAKER_00]: Creating factions why? [SPEAKER_00]: Because the very people that he is ruling over, he doesn't want them to unite against him.

4:48 [SPEAKER_00]: So created factions amongst the people. [SPEAKER_00]: And when we recognize, of course, some of the atrocities that fit out and before a single baby boy was slaughtered because he killed the boys in concern of the prophecy that someone would destroy his throne. [SPEAKER_00]: Before all of this, he already created factions.

5:07 [SPEAKER_00]: He enslaved a group of people. [SPEAKER_00]: some considering the others worthless. [SPEAKER_00]: In our times, we hear this language frequently. [SPEAKER_00]: In mainstream media, we hear this in political commentary. [SPEAKER_00]: We see this embedded in movies, TV shows, and other forms of entertainment.

5:26 [SPEAKER_00]: where some people are described as vermin, or as cockroaches, or as criminals, all of these groups, or all these people, or you hear someone referring to the Palestinians as human animals. [SPEAKER_00]: When you hear this language become common in politics and unfortunately it has in our times, you're going to see how it's weaponized.

5:46 [SPEAKER_00]: Continuously, both by politicians and society at large to justify some of the things that will follow. [SPEAKER_00]: Because usually what you'll notice in a lot of these pluralistic societies is that violence and killing was preceded with dehumanization, was preceded with violent language.

6:05 [SPEAKER_00]: And let's take this to the personal level. [SPEAKER_00]: Because it's easy for us to criticize something like this that is obvious to any one of good faith. [SPEAKER_00]: But at a very personal level, it's important for us to consider how we perceive family members, co-workers, employees, how we talk about our neighbors, how we talk about classmates.

6:27 [SPEAKER_00]: It's important for us to consider that sometimes, in a WhatsApp group full of Muslims, that it's normal for people to, backway or use dehumanizing language about somebody else. [SPEAKER_00]: And as we hate it for ourselves, we also cannot be the cause of it. [SPEAKER_00]: As we condemn and criticize the tactics of dehumanization, we cannot stoop to that standard.

6:49 [SPEAKER_00]: For they are not our teachers. [SPEAKER_00]: We follow the prophets on Allah, Allah, the Prophet. [SPEAKER_00]: We do not stereotype groups of people. [SPEAKER_00]: Number two. [SPEAKER_00]: often times in many cases of ethnic cleansing and genocide, especially now in the world today. [SPEAKER_00]: Those who actually commit the act of murder are always smaller in number than those who are observing.

7:08 [SPEAKER_00]: They are smaller in number. [SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't mean they are small total. [SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't mean there aren't many people who support them, but it's important to consider that just in the case, just in the case of Oshabit, who the spectators were not the majority. [SPEAKER_00]: The majority embraced Islam.

7:25 [SPEAKER_00]: The majority believed in a loss of Hanutad. [SPEAKER_00]: The majority were killed in that situation. [SPEAKER_00]: And those who are watching at the edge of the fire, if you will, they're not just neutral spectators. [SPEAKER_00]: And this is a very important point for us because often times, once again, at a personal level, there are many scenarios that take place where someone is a spectator at work, or at school, or at a group chat, or at home, where some kind of loneliness taking place.

7:56 [SPEAKER_00]: And a group of people are silent. [SPEAKER_00]: A group of people are observers. [SPEAKER_00]: A group of people are witnesses now. [SPEAKER_00]: And amongst them, Libas, one of the worst of sins, Liba, to back by, and to slander is one [SPEAKER_00]: and it is a responsibility for the one in that gathering when they're able to to say something to change the subject to defend the one who's not there.

8:17 [SPEAKER_00]: Even if even if the one who's backbiting says, but I said it to their face. [SPEAKER_00]: That's not a justification. [SPEAKER_00]: In fact, that's too wrong. [SPEAKER_00]: So you insulted them to their face and you're backbiting as well. [SPEAKER_00]: We do not normalize backbiting. [SPEAKER_00]: We do not normalize slander in our gatherings.

8:33 [SPEAKER_00]: If you can't change it, then leave that gathering so that you're not held accountable amongst them. [SPEAKER_00]: We ask a loss of panomatata to protect us from being quiet spectators in any domain of life, whether it's in class or at school or at work or anywhere else. [SPEAKER_00]: Number three, often times when it comes to genocide and ethnic cleansing, power institutions or institutions of structural power, they didn't usually save the oppressed.

8:57 [SPEAKER_00]: Are there positive cases? [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, there are many. [SPEAKER_00]: But many times a person who's watching what's happening in the world may skip right over and say, all we need is the right structure. [SPEAKER_00]: The right structure has to be pursued. [SPEAKER_00]: The right structure has to be addressed and it's a long-term struggle.

9:13 [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of Japan, Natala warns it's not to incline to people of evil. [SPEAKER_00]: To people of oppression, Wala Tarkano illa l-e-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le-le [SPEAKER_00]: And while there's a context to this particular ayah, a lot of the situations we just observed in the last 30 or 40 years.

9:28 [SPEAKER_00]: We can look at Syria, we can look at Bosnia, we can look at the Rohingya, we can look at the situation East Turkistan, look at Palestine, Sudan. [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of situations like this when we observe them like Bosnia, this fell at the very end. [SPEAKER_00]: One of the cities of Bosnia fell while the UN was supposedly supposed to protect the people of Bosnia.

9:48 [SPEAKER_00]: The same situation with Palestine. [SPEAKER_00]: It's easy for most countries to condemn, for many things to be said, for many protests to take place. [SPEAKER_00]: And one of the things that frustrates people is when they're watching and they feel helpless, because institutions of power are not actually serving everyone.

10:04 [SPEAKER_00]: Institutions of power were made for certain objectives. [SPEAKER_00]: But when they start to transgress, when they start to address the one who's actually at that table, now they'll veto. [SPEAKER_00]: What do you mean you want to condemn this genocide? [SPEAKER_00]: What do you mean you want to call it a war crime?

10:20 [SPEAKER_00]: And of course, this is not to say we shouldn't address the institutions of power. [SPEAKER_00]: That is a big part of our responsibility. [SPEAKER_00]: It's a part of our responsibility to care about politics for this reason from an Islamic lens. [SPEAKER_00]: Even if the change is slow.

10:33 [SPEAKER_00]: Even if it's at times you feel helpless or you feel like it should change quicker. [SPEAKER_00]: That's part of striving and not giving up. [SPEAKER_00]: Because people who are using those same policies for evil, they're not giving up. [SPEAKER_00]: The same individuals who want to take away your rights and the rights of a lot of people in this country and around the world, they don't care, they'll keep going, they'll keep funding.

10:53 [SPEAKER_00]: And that requires us to put in more effort. [SPEAKER_00]: While we do that, we do not outsource our hope for institutions that are not truly serving people. [SPEAKER_00]: Meaning you do not stop there. [SPEAKER_00]: And you turn to Allah Subhan Wa Ta'ala, Musa'ali Salam was raised in the very same palace that tried to drown in kill a number of babies.

11:12 [SPEAKER_00]: It's very same palace and the system drowned because of their evil, because of their oppression, because they kept going, Fakhar O'Fihal Fesad, Fasad, Fasad Ba'ari in Rabbu, Qasal Ta'ala. [SPEAKER_00]: The reality is that in many societies you will see institutions used for evil. [SPEAKER_00]: It's not a justification to give up nor is it a justification to stop utilizing the other avenues of change and especially turning to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala.

11:41 [SPEAKER_00]: There are many people who complain about raising or righteous child in this country or in this time. [SPEAKER_00]: And yet they may outsource without consideration. [SPEAKER_00]: They may outsource the teribian education and the character of their child to assist them that does not care about their afria.

11:57 [SPEAKER_00]: And the reason we emphasize this is to say we have to be proactive. [SPEAKER_00]: We ask a loss of habitat to protect us and our generations of children along many. [SPEAKER_00]: Lesson number four, that we observe in a very obvious way, most oppressors believe or claim that they are the civilized ones.

12:16 [SPEAKER_00]: The people of Mecca did this when the Prophet ﷺ first received and started to spread the message. [SPEAKER_00]: And you saw this in the palace of Fira'oun as well. [SPEAKER_00]: You see this today used all the time in mainstream media. [SPEAKER_00]: It's not just gaslighting, there are people who oppress who generally believe they are the civilized ones, while they're killing, while they're hurting, while they're oppressing.

12:40 [SPEAKER_00]: And the example that we have here is that Fira'oun literally said about Musa. [SPEAKER_00]: I said, I'm in Nia, a Khafu'a, Ayub'ed al-Dina, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I [SPEAKER_00]: When the Muslims escaped to Al-Habashat to Avsineah, and the people of Quraith chased them down to beg the ruler to send them back, send them since back.

13:04 [SPEAKER_00]: They came in with a plan that these are troublemakers. [SPEAKER_00]: They're causing corruption or land. [SPEAKER_00]: They split between the families of father and the son. [SPEAKER_00]: They said, why? [SPEAKER_00]: Because when they worship one God and they don't worship idols, in their mind, you're taking away power from us.

13:18 [SPEAKER_00]: And so here you have the example of Fidh, I want to talk about Musa Ali Sineah. [SPEAKER_00]: And what's remarkable here is that this took place after Firaon already started to drown baby boys. [SPEAKER_00]: He already was killing children, and he's cleaning in this public propaganda. [SPEAKER_00]: I am the guardian of order and civilization.

13:39 [SPEAKER_00]: I am the normal one, and he is the one who's spreading corruption. [SPEAKER_00]: Similar to the language you hear from a lot of hardcore Zionist ministers similar to the language here from many Zionists in general, the language that they use is that the people that are being killed it's their fault.

13:54 [SPEAKER_00]: The people being killed is because of another group's fault. [SPEAKER_00]: While they're killing babies, there's no justification in any sane ideology or religion to do something like this. [SPEAKER_00]: But most in most cases we see, [SPEAKER_00]: A genocidal maniac and a war criminal who's already very arrogant, their hearts are corrupted, they're literally committing murder.

14:16 [SPEAKER_00]: Do you think they see themselves as the evil ones in this situation, as the villains? [SPEAKER_00]: No, they think it's everyone else. [SPEAKER_00]: They think it's those who stand against it. [SPEAKER_00]: They will do whatever it takes to defend that false reality in their minds. [SPEAKER_00]: But once again, let's bring this down to a personal level.

14:34 [SPEAKER_00]: and as harsh as it may sound and direct, there are many, many situations where a husband may be oppressing or abusing his wife, or vice versa, and he thinks he's in the wrong. [SPEAKER_00]: He thinks she's in the wrong. [SPEAKER_00]: And she wrongs him, and she assumes he's always wrong.

14:53 [SPEAKER_00]: And oftentimes, if it becomes a norm in that relationship, it starts to wear out, yes, the marriage no doubt. [SPEAKER_00]: But it starts to create for the one who's oppressed or the one who's harassed for some people. [SPEAKER_00]: There is a notion of an inferiority complex. [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe I am the wrong one.

15:10 [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe something is wrong with me. [SPEAKER_00]: And this is a narcissistic twist, we have cases many cases unfortunately where it's an employer or a manager or a supervisor or a CEO who's bullying their own employees. [SPEAKER_00]: And we know this is unacceptable in Islam. [SPEAKER_00]: Self-justification is not an evidence of innocence.

15:31 [SPEAKER_00]: Self-justification to tell oneself that I'm the innocent one. [SPEAKER_00]: That's not an evidence of innocence. [SPEAKER_00]: And this is why the Sali Honda righteous, they would reflect often, especially at night. [SPEAKER_00]: More has the self-accountability is to reflect with a genuine intention if I'm doing something wrong, then I have to recognize it.

15:53 [SPEAKER_00]: Because the most dangerous thing, spiritually, by far, is for someone to have too much pride to recognize who they've become. [SPEAKER_00]: That was the sin of the devil himself. [SPEAKER_00]: to refuse to see reality because of pride. [SPEAKER_00]: And the devil disobeyed Allah SWT, knowing the truth, knowing Allah's reality.

16:13 [SPEAKER_00]: And he said, Anaheiro min ayam better than him. [SPEAKER_00]: He blamed God instead of accepting responsibility. [SPEAKER_00]: And it's a reminder for us to be very sincere and honest with who we are and to reflect often. [SPEAKER_00]: May Allah protect us and our homes and our families and relationships Allah Almighty.

16:28 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's say number five, on many occasions, [SPEAKER_00]: the occasions we have in the Quran and so on. [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of planets had preserved it for later generations, like ours, to learn lessons from all these nations that we have stories of, that we have examples of. [SPEAKER_00]: And then for all the other forms of oppression and genocide that are not documented.

16:52 [SPEAKER_00]: In which the victims have been completely wiped out, in which even from a historical lens we don't really have a lot of documentation. [SPEAKER_00]: Allah Subhanahu alayhi wa ra'a ra'fi, an amma Ya'am alayhi wa. [SPEAKER_00]: Do not assume that Allah is unaware of what oppressors do. [SPEAKER_00]: He delays them for a day in which their eyes will be staring in horror.

17:15 [SPEAKER_00]: Allah Subhanat al-Azawair, when the innocent people of the ditch were killed and burned alive. [SPEAKER_00]: Allah is very much aware of when the Bosnian genocide took place of how many innocent people whose stories we don't know though. [SPEAKER_00]: Allah Subhanat al-Azawair, every Palestinian who's still suffering to this day.

17:29 [SPEAKER_00]: and every mother and father in Sudan, and our brothers and sisters who have been for God in an East Turkestad, Allah SWT is aware of Muslims and non-Muslims who are oppressed, old and young from every walk of life, and He reminds us of this because of how heavy the consequences are on the day of judgment for people who hurt others.

17:50 [SPEAKER_00]: It doesn't have to be at the level of genocide. [SPEAKER_00]: If you hurt someone in your life, a relative, a friend, a community member, a family member, a spouse, a parent, a child, just because it doesn't become a public thing, or other people don't intervene, or it's not a political thing, does not mean a law is unaware.

18:11 [SPEAKER_00]: Having said this from the lens of Qadda, one of the heaviest things that has to be repeatedly emphasized. [SPEAKER_00]: Allah SWT created this world [SPEAKER_00]: with the most perfect balance of a test, the easy test of wealth and health and safety, and the difficult test of the limb and loss and poverty.

18:34 [SPEAKER_00]: and reminds us as well that Allah loves some things and hates some things, but he permits things or prohibits things and those are distinct. [SPEAKER_00]: What does that mean? [SPEAKER_00]: Allah gives people agency. [SPEAKER_00]: He gives you choice. [SPEAKER_00]: He gave you the free will to come to this, hope for today.

18:49 [SPEAKER_00]: He gives you the free will to choose if you want to pray. [SPEAKER_00]: Do you want to treat people with kindness? [SPEAKER_00]: Do you want to be an honest person? [SPEAKER_00]: Do you want to be a good source of inspiration in your society? [SPEAKER_00]: Femin Shah, a filiopmin, one man Shah, a feliak for.

19:01 [SPEAKER_00]: In this life, you have choice. [SPEAKER_00]: but a loss of panellatana does not endorse evil things. [SPEAKER_00]: He does not approve of your use of agency to hurt someone else. [SPEAKER_00]: Phanatalanam, and he does not wrong his creation. [SPEAKER_00]: One of the things that terrifies abusers and oppressors of all types is when they're victims speak.

19:25 [SPEAKER_00]: And we have so many examples of this even in our times. [SPEAKER_00]: Epstein class is just one example. [SPEAKER_00]: People get terrified when they abused or the oppressed is able to speak in front of others. [SPEAKER_00]: And on the day of judgment, it is the oppressed who will speak in the court of Allah.

19:42 [SPEAKER_00]: Guadalamo Uda to sa'inat bi'a'iyyidam m'iyyidat. [SPEAKER_00]: The infant girl that was killed, she's going to be asked, meaning to respond. [SPEAKER_00]: For what crime was she killed? [SPEAKER_00]: Imagine those who killed, [SPEAKER_00]: and facilitated genocide and ethnic cleansing of all types throughout history.

20:00 [SPEAKER_00]: And those who killed not just innocent people, they killed the sources of journals in itself. [SPEAKER_00]: They killed those who were just reporting. [SPEAKER_00]: They killed in Raza, more journalists than any other modern conflict we have. [SPEAKER_00]: Why? [SPEAKER_00]: Because they didn't just want to kill the Palestinians, they wanted to silence the source that is exposing that genocide to the world and continue to gaslight the world about the journalists that they murdered in killed.

20:27 [SPEAKER_00]: Continue to oppress long after killing those journalists, like Anna Sashari for Ahmallah, and all of the others may Allah SWT. [SPEAKER_00]: but Allah is reminding them and reminding us that Allah is aware, that your angels are recording, that the earth testifies, and that the bodies will speak on that day.

20:46 [SPEAKER_00]: You can't get away from truth. [SPEAKER_00]: You can't get away from the justice that is coming to you. [SPEAKER_00]: And we ask Allah SWT for us at a personal level as well to have Ihsan, to worship Him knowing that He sees us. [SPEAKER_00]: Waqafabillah, Hishahida. [SPEAKER_00]: Number six, [SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes in history you'll notice amongst the many lessons of genocide at the cleansing Someone who's abused or oppressed [SPEAKER_00]: years later may hurt other people.

21:12 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not saying this is what happens. [SPEAKER_00]: I'm saying that sometimes the one who's oppressed or a group of people that are oppressed and we have a clear case study in Palestine, a group of people that were oppressed now going to another land and oppressing, now hurting other people with the very same slogan that they told the world never again, never again, and is remarkable to see on the front lines against genocide, so many [SPEAKER_00]: So many survivors of the Holocaust who said, absolutely not.

21:43 [SPEAKER_00]: Not in our name. [SPEAKER_00]: Do not twist the narrative between religion, a religious tradition, and a political ideology that actually started off secular. [SPEAKER_00]: And this is an important lesson for us at a personal level too, because often times, when someone is very hurt, and they don't heal properly, or they don't turn to a loss of Hannah Tata properly, they may end up at a fork in the road at some point in life.

22:09 [SPEAKER_00]: And it would be bizarre for someone who was so hurt by other human beings to go on hurting anyone else. [SPEAKER_00]: You know how it felt, to be back then. [SPEAKER_00]: You know how it felt, to be hurt. [SPEAKER_00]: And so in that case, if someone, for example, was traumatized, it is important for them to find the sources of healing, whether it's a trustworthy Muslim therapist or anything else that is beneficial for them, so that they're the ones breaking that cycle.

22:33 [SPEAKER_00]: If you're oppressed by a parent, it's not an excuse to oppress your children. [SPEAKER_00]: If you're abused by a parent, it's not an excuse to raise your children the same way you complained about, learn from it so that you're breaking that cycle. [SPEAKER_00]: And in fact, of Hamdulillah, [SPEAKER_00]: resources we have access to in our times.

22:49 [SPEAKER_00]: We do see so many people breaking cycles of oppression. [SPEAKER_00]: We see a lot of people breaking generational cycles of trauma and this is a beneficial thing that has to be emphasized in our communities as well. [SPEAKER_00]: So we ask a lot of panelatada to heal those who are oppressed in any form.

23:05 [SPEAKER_00]: at a personal private level or at a global level. [SPEAKER_00]: And we ask Allah SWT to guide our every step and lastly, less than number seven, what survives every genocide and ethnic cleansing. [SPEAKER_00]: It's not going to be any honor for the perpetrators, even if it takes decades.

23:20 [SPEAKER_00]: But rather, it's going to be for the certainty of the victims. [SPEAKER_00]: When the sorcerers of fit are on, left the prohibition and became believers in God, and he threatened to kill them in that moment, they said, do whatever you want, fuck, Lima, and Tafal. [SPEAKER_00]: In them atoply, how they had hired the dunya.

23:36 [SPEAKER_00]: You are in charge here and now you can kill us. [SPEAKER_00]: Sure. [SPEAKER_00]: But we're going back to Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'ara. [SPEAKER_00]: We have certainty. [SPEAKER_00]: Inna ila Rabbi Na'amun Khalibun, we're going back to Allah. [SPEAKER_00]: We have certainty. [SPEAKER_00]: That while you can do what you're doing here, our certainty, our eclin, our trust in Allah Subhanahu Wa'Ta'ara in his promises, that we will be victorious, that he will grant us paradise, that there is a day of justice.

23:58 [SPEAKER_00]: Not only does this have ripple effect in society, especially in our times. [SPEAKER_00]: But also, this is something that reminds the believers to truly put their trust in Allah, hasbun Allah, when I'm in a lucky. [SPEAKER_00]: That Allah is sufficient for us. [SPEAKER_00]: What will our children inherit from us beyond material things?

24:13 [SPEAKER_00]: For many people, it's the way your face was, your facial reaction to being wronged, to a situation of hardship. [SPEAKER_00]: When someone's trial is announced to them or a diagnosis and their children see how they reacted, sometimes the terbiya lessons, the spiritual lessons, are more powerful than anything else.

24:31 [SPEAKER_00]: What remains is your certainty and trust in a loss of Hanotada. [SPEAKER_00]: The categorization of killer and victim watcher or witness is a reminder for us in the world that we are in.
