this sacrifice we need to realize we are
not prepared to give up a cigarette I I
honest obviously people are now debating
is it Mak is it haram my brothers my
sisters don't fool yourself is it
harmful or not the answer is yes it is
I last week I was in UK and believe me I
saw cigarettes not only expensive but
every box says two words smoking kills
that is the message and I was talking to
one of the and he was
saying this particular issue of smoking
kills and how it is illegal to sell a
box of cigarettes without writing on it
smoking kills and then he said something
very interesting he said you know when
the law came out that you are not
allowed to sell cigarettes unless you
write smoking kills or is harmful to you
on the box all the tobacco companies
immediately signed up and agreed and
they said we'll write it in big why they
are so confident of their product that
no matter how much we tell these people
you will die they say no problem I take
the puff W he look at that have you
thought of it that way they are so
confident of their product who will tell
you brother you are dying if you enter
here they are Lian you say no problem
I'll go inside they wouldn't do that the
zoo won't tell you you know it's like B
jumping in Zimbabwe they won't tell you
look you can jump for free no strings
attached nobody would go but at the same
time we Muslims we see them writing
smoking kills and we say no problem we
going they were so confident that
they've got us nailed that's what it is
they've got us nailed they don't mind
even if they write to you smoke five you
die instantly we'll smoke 4 and a half 4
and 3 quarter and we leave the mdle
quarter may Allah Safeguard us is this
what we cannot sacrifice a cigarette how
many of us are ready to throw it out
people died for you that's why the de is
here today ham
was murdered because of you and you
cannot give up a
[Music]
cigarette was murdered because of you
and you cannot cover your hair my
[Music]
sister if they did not fight where would
we be today
name them name all of them 313 people
they said yeah Allah we are ready to
give our lives that's when the dean came
to me and you I cannot give up
adultery they gave up their Liv nobody's
asking you to kill
yourself Allah is only asking you one
thing give up your bad habits turn to
me they gave their lives for you w they
died they were murdered in Cold Blood
that they went go and see what happened
to
them and I cannot give up
pornography what a silly habit where is
it going to get
me what is it I cannot cover myself for
the sake of Allah and then I want to say
that no I happy to be an of Muhammad s
alai wasam think about this it is by far
the most powerful question you will ask
yourself nobody's asking you to die
right now and right
here Allah is asking you to serve him to
worship him alone to practice the dean
to put it into practice to convey to
others to be kind to others to be honest
to be trustworthy we steal from people
we cheat them we con them we deceived
them and yet there were people who have
died in their hundreds and thousands for
the dean to come to me today and I don't
realize I am enjoying the shahada
because of the martydom of so many
people name them when you read a sahab's
name any one of the sahaba when you read
their names ask yourself this man was
mared because of me the de came to me
today what am I doing I can't even
sacrifice for the sake of Allah to get
up
for is that the deal are you going to
die by getting up for Sal no you're
not we go to meca we go to
Madina we make
Salam we go to we
greet and we know we go to we see we
feel the hair stands is that way it
stops think for a
moment they fought with their swords the
enemy came to
swipe they stood so that those who
remained carried the deal today it is
here in Port Elizabeth strong live and
kicking why because of the sacrifice
that is made if you are not ready to
make a sacrifice who knows the dean may
be taken away from yourselves and your
progeny and Allah says it in the Quran
very very loud and clear it is so scary
but we need to word it to ourselves
first and remind ourselves
[Music]
allahar what powerful verses they are
Allah says oh you who believe whoever
from amongst you turns away from your
being so Allah will bring forth to other
people Allah will bring forth a nation a
group of people who will love him and
who whom will love who will love them
meaning who will love Allah and Allah
will love
them and they will be humble when it
comes to the and they will be
strengthened against the KU Subhan Allah
they will be solid not like us
weaklings so
weak that we can pump weights of 100
pillow and boast to the rest of the
people in the gym but that same set of
biceps cannot lift your blanket up
for where are we what are we doing why
are we deceived we cannot
sacrifice so this is it we need to
constantly ask ourselves what have I
done
[Music]
