now just before we cut out and go to
this week's show just a friendly
reminder for myself first and foremost
and for all the millions of viewers that
are out there it's Ramadan we need to
get the most out of it alhamdulillah all
praises to the creator of the heavens
and earth that's given us life that we
can experience another Ramadan so this
is training ground we want to develop
ourselves that's right to be the best
human beings that we can be so we got to
watch out for all the evil things that
will not be conducive to the development
of our spiritual side our Taqua Our God
Consciousness developing ourselves so we
can get and have a closer relationship
with our creator this is what the plan
is this is what we need to be doing so
then we'll have a boost we'll get pumped
up and we'll be ready for the rest of
the year and if Allah gives us life
we'll be back at it again because the
Iman goes up and down and this is the
time through all the extra acts of
worship to really refrain from every
evil Vice that's out there it's tough
it's not easy but you know what as you
go higher up you want to get that PhD
you want to get that doctorate there's
less people in class isn't there so the
higher you are in developing yourself
you know what it's going to take a
little more patience it's going to take
a little more commitment but Allah knows
you can do it so he wants to bring out
the best in you so you can have the
higher levels of Jenna that's right we
want to get to Paradise this life is
short it's going to end at any time so
the reminder is especially during this
month we have to be cautious about all
the bad things that are out there and
you know what some of those things now
are the gossiping the backbiting getting
in other people's
business saying things about people as
the prophet peace be upon him said to
say something that your brother wouldn't
like when he's not in front of you when
his presence is not there that's
backbiting but then to say something
about her or him that's not true that's
slandered so we have to be careful have
our tongue moist moist with the
remembrance of Allah the cror not with
things that are of no benefit that the
angel on the right he's not writing down
the good he writing down the bad and
another thing we have to be aware of so
if we train ourselves now it's going to
be easier for the rest of the year when
we get out of Ramadan this is the
training ground you know it I'm just
reminding you and my self and another
thing we have to stay away from there's
a lot of good that can be accomplished
with a lot of the social media tools
that are out there so I don't want to
just speak generally I want to give you
something tangible to work on you know
we get taken away with lot of the
technological advances and Facebook is
one of them millions of people got it
and we're on there chatting
away we're chatting away a lot of times
we're chatting away with useless chit
chatter Jibber jat and you know what is
the angel on the right is he writing the
Good Deeds what are we doing are we
refraining from things that we should be
refraining from are we getting into you
know what it starts off with the
innocent hello how are you you expose
yourself and now what happens now you
end up talking to the opposite gender
without your parents permission the
women especially strike a pose and now
everybody's like hey you're looking so
fine there honey and what happens now
your head gets a little big and now what
happens you're full of yourself and what
happens now it's harder to disattach
from this you're liking the attention
but is this pleasing to
Allah is the attention of all the boys
out there more pleasing than the
attention of Allah same thing for the
young men out there you're posting all
the pictures maybe of women that
shouldn't be on your page you're
exposing yourself in your body your
AA you're exposing your body and you're
putting things out there that wow we
can't believe as Muslims that these
things are up on your accounts man you
need to chill especially during this
month we need to refrain we are Muslims
sisters brothers please now is the time
get away from the useless Jibber jat
chit chatter don't expose yourselves out
there the wolves are on the hunt and
they're looking to get those good
sisters they're out there and same thing
for the brothers don't get caught off
guard you see something it's like an
arrow through the heart and now your IM
what does it increase no it decreases
and you're looking for looking at things
you shouldn't be looking at you should
be lowering the Gaze you should be
staying away from these things but you
know what we get tricked we get trapped
because shayan's the pimp he's the
biggest pimp and he's looking to pimp us
so please now is the time to refrain
from all the evil things sisters if this
month you got a chance to observe the
hijab don't take it off at the end of
Ramadan don't turn the corner and put
the tight jeans on when nobody's looking
don't do that these are tangible things
these are real things in the real world
that we're facing the issues brother
you're in the Masid you ain't swearing
or cursing but you turn the corner and
you're speaking French and I'm not
talking French fries or French food I'm
talking about the foul language that's
coming out of your mouth so these are
just a few things that we need to be
aware of we're Muslims we're ones who
have consciously submitted to who to a
man to a monkey no we' submitted to the
one who's created this whole universe
and everything in it and he's got a
great reward for us he's got a great
prize it's the ultimate prize of Jenna
get your eyes hypnotized to that prize
stay away from many of the R-rated
movies in this Ramadan you're refraining
from what from food and drink but now
you're watching the big screen you're
flickering through the channels and
promiscuity and women naked and men
naked and they kissing an American Idol
and again you're losing your fast you
don't even know it you're starving
yourself but you know what it's all
going out the window because again we're
not watching what we should not be
watching and that's the reminder that I
want to remind myself and my brothers
and sisters out of the love that we love
you here at the dean show so please
these are some practical things that are
going on so if you find yourself your
Iman is going down check yourself you
got some CD or some music in the car
bobbing your head to 50 cents or Lady
Gaga goooo and all that other nonsense
these
are these are the things that do not
help us or bring us closer to the crater
of the heavens and earth they don't
remind us about Paradise the day of
judgment the Hereafter doing good they
take us away from doing good and we end
up falling into trickery we end up
falling into things that decrease our
Imad so please this is the advice that I
give you especially during this month
that we strengthen up ourselves
we walk straight and we proud to be
Muslims ones again who have submitted to
the will of the one God acquiring Peace
by doing all the good things that he's
told us to do the same way Jesus Moses
all the righteous predecessors all of
them did this in the last and final
messenges sent to mankind his Sunnah is
the way that we need to follow and we
need to this month really get to know it
tune in to the dean show tune in to P T
who that there's so many other media
Outlets stay away from the things that
will only hinder you
from growing in the dean from growing in
your relationship with the one who
created you but will only decrease you
and you know what death hit you and you
die in a bad State and as Allah says the
Creator says do not die except in a
state of full submission so when you're
chatting away and you're looking at
something that you're not supposed to be
looking at you're doing some things
you're not supposed to be doing you know
what they are ask yourself is Allah
pleased with me at this moment and am I
earning his pleasure or you know what
I'm getting closer to the fire oh Allah
please protect us from this please
protect us from this and grant us your
jna grant us your Jenna let's be more in
a constant state of self-development
according to how the Creator Allah the
almighty has told us to be that's
worshiping him alone following the
Sunnah of the last and final messenger
sent to mankind to Prophet Muhammad
peace be upon him the same way you would
have been following Jesus Moses and all
the messengers if you living during
their time and this was the reminder
to myself first and foremost and to all
my brothers and sisters in
humanity and my brothers and sisters in
faith I love you for the sake of Allah
keep me and all of us at the dean show
in your duas this is the dean
