6. Christianity :-

7. Women :–

“They are your mother, They are your sisters, They are your daughters, They are your aunts. They have to be loved and cherished and not for sale, So, I don’t advertise them.”

8. “Go back to the Qur’an.

Allaah gives you directions on how to do the job. He is giving you example after example but Muslims are not reading the books. They rattle it off. They memorize it, they recite it beautifully, they put people in ecstasy when they recite. But WHAT ARE WE READING ? Are the sound, the melody and the voice, reward that we are reading for?”

9. “We have got so much energy that we don’t know how to use it. So what are we doing now?

We are using this energy to bash each other; busy, busy, busy, ‘you know about your beard, that it is not the standard fist size’, you are wearing Mushrik clothes, busy, busy, busy in such petty matters. What I say is, Look, the important thing in life is that you must identify; Who are the people there to subvert you, Who are out to steal your children and so on. Instead of worrying about the beard or the mustache, whether it should be shave or trimmed. What is this luxury that we are enjoying ? We can’t afford this luxury because these are the things going on that are going to destroy us, that are going to break us up.”

10. “In Karachi in the 1950s, living in Pakistan, Katcheri Road, 2nd floor, I get a knock at the door early in the morning.

I open the door and a Caucasian, a white man, says, ”Good morning.” I say, “Good morning, what can I do for you?” The man says, “Look, I have got some literature for you.” I said, come inside. He comes in. Sits down. I say, “where do you come from?” He says, “I come from England.” A few days later, another knock at the door. I open the door and another white man.

This is right in the center of Karachi.

I say, “what can I do for you?” “I have some literature for you.” “Where do you come from?” “America”. This guy’s coming from 6000 miles, that guy is coming from 10,000 miles to preach me in my country. I want to know what am I doing? Nothing. Nothing. It is an obligation of the Muslims to deliver the message long before Salah, Zakah, and Hajj became Fard. Allah tells his prophets and through him, He’s telling us, “You deliver the message because it’s your duty.”

May Allaah accept his deeds and bless his soul with Jannatul Firdaus.
