The Way Out of the Weakness and Humiliation of the Muslims

The questioner: On our children, on our sustenance, we want to remain self-sufficient Muslims with our own hands.

The Shaykh: What are you and the professor ...

The questioner : Hehe.

The questioner: : What are we agreed on?

The Shaykh : Hehehe.

The questioner: : A good neighbor, and yes, a good neighbor, we are agreed, and why are we not agreed?

Another questioner: : O Shaykh, if from ..

The Shaykh: : What do you want us to do, O Professor? Attack? Let’s see, attack the Jews with those who attacked?

The questioner: : There is no one to guide us.

The Shaykh: : We guided you, but you did not accept. Your Prophet guided you. What are you satisfied with? I want to guide you. I am Al-Albani. I came and attacked your land here, but your Prophet is saying to you:

Another questioner : Allahu Akbar.

The Shaykh: : You do not want guidance more than this.

The questioner: : Also, I return to say, from the men of knowledge and the men of religion.

The Shaykh: : The master of the scholars is the Messenger of Allah.

The questioner: : May Allah send prayers and blessings upon him.

The Shaykh: : He is saying to you, if you do this and this, Allah will send humiliation upon you. This has happened. What is the cure? Return to your religion. If you do not return to your religion, there is riba, there is riba, there is obscenity, there is open sinfulness, there is lewdness, there is unlawful sexual intercourse, there are bars, there is such and such to the end. You want to fight the Jews? How? How? How will you fight the Jews?

The questioner: : By Allah, every one of you ..

The Shaykh: : What do you want, guidance more than this? Return to your religion.

The questioner: : By Allah, in the present time.

The Shaykh :

The questioner: : He is preparing and struggling. Any one who is prepared offers his soul and everything he has, because he has reached the stage of danger. There is no safety in his state and in what he has.

The Shaykh : We seek help from Allah.

Another questioner: : That which he wants to reach.The Shaykh ..

The Shaykh : We seek help from Allah.
Another questioner : : Allah will not change a people until they change what is in themselves.

The Shaykh: : You are adding your voice to the professor here. This is enthusiasm not supported by knowledge, nor supported by reason, nor supported by action, nor by accountability, because hypocrisy is not permissible in Islam. You say everyone is prepared. These open sinners, these lewd people, they may stand as a stumbling block in your path. If you truly have the preparation to fight with those we are talking about at this very hour, and you are present, but there is no faith, no material preparation, no .. What do you want to fight with? With your glasses? Where is your weapon?

The questioner: : The big one and the leader, he must guide me.

The Shaykh: : Where is the big one? The big one is on your head, your ruler. Where is the big one? You are in yourself now, you and you, and so on, you are walking within the limits of the Shari'ah. The big prince does not tell you not to pray. He does not tell you not to maintain the prayer at its times. He does not tell you to take out your woman displaying her adornment like the Europeans or the Franks, and so on. And yet, the whole people now, except what Allah wills, and few are they who are outside the Shari'ah. Where are you speaking? You are living in dreams. You want victory. Victory is conditional. You do not support Allah, Allah does not support you. This is the truth, but you are a people who ignore the facts. You say, "Now, and I do not know what you are saying, the people are prepared to sacrifice their souls and all their wealth." This is empty talk. What kind of people is this? I ask you now, is the majority of the people righteous or wicked? The people you are praising, are they righteous or wicked?

The questioner: : There is, there is, some wickedness.

The Shaykh: : Do you see? He does not answer, righteous or wicked. There is this word "there is." I do not know this word "there is." I do not know it. "There is." I am asking you a specific question. You and he, and he, and so on. There are no answers. Why? Because you do not want us to treat ourselves with the Prophetic medicine. Go back to your place, stay there.

The questioner: : What is required?

Another questioner: : We are speaking our point of view.

The questioner: : Please, give us steps.

The Shaykh: : Ah, good. Now I know the way. So the requirement is that you learn and that you act. Did I make a mistake with you in the answer? Heh. That you learn and that you act.

The questioner: : In your way, you told me I will liberate Palestine.

The Shaykh : You did not understand.

The questioner: : You are sitting there telling me I will liberate one by one.

The Shaykh: : What did I not understand?

The questioner: : You are telling me, act, learn, and act.

The questioner : The other : : Yes.

The Shaykh : is it

The questioner: : Learn and act.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : Oh, my goodness.

The Shaykh: : Do you have an objection to this speech?

The questioner: : No, this is the principle. This is the principle.

The questioner : The other : : He wants it faster.The Shaykh: : This is long.

The questioner: : I mean, is this your style, or is it long?

The questioner : Hehe.

The questioner: : A lot, I mean, more than I say.
Al-Halabi :

The Shaykh: : Heh, Allahu Akbar.
Al-Halabi :

The Shaykh: : No, let us listen to him. What is the short way? We do not have anything but the long way. Give us to see the short way.

The questioner: : Do not ask, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh: : And I will ask you.

The questioner: : Get up, get up from me.

The Shaykh : Hehe.

The questioner: : Heh.

The questioner: : Your question, everyone is not in my mind. Let me ask you, O Shaykh, when they went and sat in the Camp David negotiations.

The Shaykh: : What do I want, my brother? I do not want this political talk.

The questioner: : No politics.

The Shaykh: : It does not bind or release.

The questioner: : No, I do not want to teach you how the Jews apply.

The Shaykh : There is no god but Allah

The questioner: : And where am I from the application?

The Shaykh: : For you, my dear. I told you, these people did not reach here except by working day and night. We now do not want to do, and where do we start? May Allah guide you, O people. Where do we start? From ignorance or from knowledge? Now you say knowledge.

The questioner : Of course.

The Shaykh: : From disbelief or from faith? You say now, from faith. And I said it before. Heh.

The questioner : Hehe.

The Shaykh: : Okay, go, O people. Knowledge and faith, and faith is always coupled with action. Do I tell you, and with all frankness, I am you, and this is our kinship ... My religion. I am advising you. You are not advising me. I have not seen the difference. I am advising you, you are not advising me. I am advising you, you are not accepting my advice. You are not advising me to accept your advice. You say this path is long. And by Allah, I testify, I sign for you on a blank paper. A long path, and this is the path of faith and Islam. Okay, show us the short path. If you do not show us, we will not do anything with you.

The questioner: : By Allah, your style is not correct, because Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in twenty-three years.

The Shaykh: : Yes, yes.

The questioner: : From the extreme of complete ignorance.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner: : To complete sovereignty.

The Shaykh: : Yes.

The questioner: : You want twenty-three centuries in your way.

The Shaykh: : Well done, well done. And are you one of us, or are you outside of us?

The questioner: : I am with you.

The questioner : Hehe.

The Shaykh : Hehe.
Al-Halabi: : You mentioned a little while ago the story of Salah al-Din. Salah al-Din came with a machine for hatching, or after more than a hundred years, indeed some narrations say two hundred years.

The Shaykh : Yes.
Al-Halabi: : Until Salah al-Din was found.

The Shaykh : Allahu Akbar.
Al-Halabi: : In an Islamic environment for two hundred years, and Jerusalem was in the hands of the Crusaders until Salah al-Din was found.

The Shaykh: : I do not want this answer. This .. O people.

The questioner: : Please, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh: : Stay with me. Let them show us the short way.

The questioner : Hehehe.

The Shaykh: : The short way is not our way. Our way is long, correct, correct, correct, a million times. What is the short way? This is what leads us to the desired goal, and it is agreed upon by everyone that it is desired. What is this short way? Without faith, you say no. Without knowledge, you say no. So, so.

The questioner: : Without faith, without knowledge, how?

The Shaykh: : I am asking you. You say no, no. So this long path requires faith and action. So what does the short path require?

The questioner: : Faith and action.

The Shaykh: : What is it? Come, O people, stand up. They say in Syria, "His hand has come out."

The questioner : Hehehe.
Al-Halabi: : It looks like he wants to think. May Allah reward him with good.

The Shaykh: : No, we.
Al-Halabi: : He does not want to answer you. He is in a hurry.

The Shaykh: : We are afraid, we are afraid of upsetting him. In fact.

The questioner: : I want to speak to the Virtuous one.The Shaykh: : A thing, by Allah, or something in this blessed hour that gathered us.

The questioner: : May Allah bless you.

The Shaykh: May Allah bless you.

The questioner: : And I want to thank him also for his broad-mindedness and for bearing with us.

The questioner : Hehehe.

The questioner: : Bearing with us, the "ish" that he speaks in this negative way. O Shaykh, they said to the nail, "What is wrong with you? Why are you coming out of the wall?" It said, "Ask the hammer."

The Shaykh: : No, this is not correct. Heh. We speak it in Arabic. He said: The wall to the peg, when you split me, it said: Ask the one who drives me.

The questioner : Hehe.

The Shaykh : Hehe.

The questioner: : Look, O Shaykh, I remember a situation once. We were informed that there was enemy aircraft. In such a case, they give the order to take off two or three planes. The pilot, from his enthusiasm, ran to the plane. The technician had to start the plane for him. And after he started the plane and the engine reached a certain number of revolutions, he gives a signal to the technician to release the compressor from underneath. He releases the compressor. The pilot comes out. The pilot, from his enthusiasm, did not wait.

The Shaykh : That is it.

The questioner: : He kept coming out. When he came out, the technician saw the plane coming at him and lay on the ground.

The Shaykh : Hehe.

The questioner: : The plane took off ... the compressor was cut off, coming out with the plane.
The students : : Heh.

The questioner: : The plane was in the air and the piece was with it. And if this landed, it would hit the runway, and all the planes in the air, he cannot calm down.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : What is the solution? We said we should calm the planes in the air. First, let everyone land, and then she will land.

The Shaykh : Peace be upon you...

The questioner : Hehehe.

The Shaykh : Hehehe.

The questioner : O Shaykh, they have enthusiasm. I can assure you they also have worldly knowledge, not knowledge of the Hereafter. But we reflect and say that in such a trial that the ummah (the Muslim community) has gone through, the scholars of the ummah are supposed to bear the responsibility. When I come...

The Shaykh : There is no power and no strength except with Allah.

The questioner : Or else I listen to a fatwa (a scholarly legal ruling) and read in the newspaper Ash-Sharq al-Awsat that Al-Aziz Ibn Baz issues the second fatwa, and the newspaper Al-Ahram issues a third fatwa. Where is the spirit? We do not know how to issue fatwas in the first place. We are of no account.

The Shaykh In your right hand, my dear, and if these are not among the priorities.

The questioner : Hehehe.

The questioner : Our Shaykh, perhaps there is...

The Shaykh : Hehe, wait for me a moment. I want to tell two jokes along with this airplane joke. Hehe. In Syria, they say that a non-Arab man, like in my story, but with a slightly heavy Arabic accent, saw a Jew on the road. This non-Arab was a Muslim, armed with a dagger. He grabbed the Jew by his collar and said to him, "Now, become a Muslim or I will kill you." The Jew said to him, "What do you want me to do?" He said, "By Allah, I do not know."

The questioner : And: Hehehe

The Shaykh : That is one. And more fitting for the story they told us is this: A Syrian and a Moroccan were talking to each other. This Syrian was praising the Moroccans in general, saying, "You are a good, righteous, and generous group," and he praised them a lot and very much. In the end, he said, "You have only one flaw." He was not listening to this one flaw, but he would jump up. They said, "What is it?" He said, "This is it."

The questioner : Hehe.

The Shaykh : Hehe. So this is our problem. Uncontrolled emotions blind our hearts and our minds, and we want to defeat our enemies this way. The road is long, long, no... and it is necessary. And I recall for our brothers on such an occasion a verse of poetry by Imru' al-Qays, a man of the pre-Islamic age of ignorance, and his poem is well known:
"My companion wept when he saw the road ahead of him, and he was certain that he would not catch up with a short distance."
"So I said to him, 'Do not weep, my eye. We are only trying to attain a kingdom, or we die and are excused.'"
Look at this intelligent man of the pre-Islamic age.

The questioner : Yes.

The Shaykh : This intelligent man, or smart man, as some of our brothers reminded me, may Allah reward him with good, because the disbelievers But the disbelievers of today have brought very strange things. This has not changed their intelligence, but it has not changed their reason. We always affirm this fact. So the point is, this man of the pre-Islamic age, Imru' al-Qays, was a smart man who went out...

The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : He went out with his companion seeking a kingdom and relying on a horse. His companion wept on the road, and they said, "Why are you weeping?" He said, "We are only trying to attain a kingdom, or we die without reaching the goal, and we are excused." What is this? He wants to reach the establishment of the Muslim state and the elimination of the Jews, or he will be an emir or a minister or something like that. He said, "We hope to walk on the road. Either we die and reach the kingdom, or we die and are excused." So we, as Muslims, must walk on the straight path. And now the brother reminds me of that hadith (a report of the Prophet's words or deeds) which has details and is applied to this session exactly, exactly. And now, the conclusion of the session: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting on the ground, and their ground was naturally sandy and earthy, not paved or cemented or any of these things. So he drew a straight, clear line on the ground and recited the saying of Allah the Exalted: And he drew short lines on the side of this long line, which are a long road and a short road. And he said: And this line is like this, and like this, and like this, and from here and from here, and short lines. He said: Then he (peace be upon him) said: Therefore, we will proceed on this long, long path. Either we reach the desired goal, which is the establishment of Islamic rule and the elimination of the Jews, and Jerusalem returns to be the third city like the two sacred sanctuaries, and so on. Or we die and are excused. We hope to walk on the straight path. As for these short paths, first they take us off the straight line, and then every step we take, the further we get from the straight line, we neither reach the goal nor are excused by our Lord, Blessed and Exalted is He. So And we ask Allah, Mighty and Majestic, to make us... and to keep us firm on the straight path until we meet His noble Face on the Day when neither wealth nor children will benefit, except one who comes to Allah with a sound heart. And finally, my apologies, because I truly believe you were afflicted by us tonight. But whoever is patient, then
Al-Halabi : This is also in the category of remembrance.

The Shaykh : Allahu Akbar. Yes, by Allah.
Al-Halabi : This is an address from Allah to His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him).

The Shaykh : (peace and blessings be upon him)

The questioner : In fact, O Shaykh, there is a question.
