00:00:00What has the label got to do with Islam or the Muslims?

00:00:04People are rather curious that what will be the content of this talk.

00:00:09It's rather an unusual topic.

00:00:11I started my talk by quoting a verse from the glorious Quran from Surah An-Am,

00:00:16chapter number 6, verse number 54.

00:00:18It says,

00:00:19وَإِذَا جَاءَ أَقَلَّذِينَ يُؤْمِنُونَ بِعَيَاتِينَ فَقُلْ سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ

00:00:25And when those come to thee who believe in our signs, tell,

00:00:30Peace be on you.

00:00:31It means that whenever a Mormon, whenever a Muslim comes to you,

00:00:36you should say,

00:00:37As-Salaamu Alaikum, may peace be on you.

00:00:40It's compulsory that whenever a Muslim meets another Muslim,

00:00:44whenever a Mormon meets another Mormon,

00:00:46he should say,

00:00:47As-Salaamu Alaikum, may peace be on you.

00:00:50It's compulsory.

00:00:52The other verse, I quoted,

00:00:54was from Surah An-Nisa,

00:00:57chapter number 4,

00:00:58verse number 86, which says,

00:01:00وَإِذَا هُيِّتُمْ بِتَهِيَةٍ فَحَيُّ بِعَسَنَ مِنْهَا أَوْرُدُّوهَا إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلِّ شَيْنْ حَسِيبًا

00:01:08Which means that when a courteous greeting is offered to you,

00:01:13meet it with a greeting still more courteous,

00:01:17or at least the same.

00:01:18And Allah is careful in keeping accounts of all things.

00:01:23That means whenever any person greets you,

00:01:27you should greet him with a greeting which is more courteous,

00:01:32or at least of equal courtesy.

00:01:35It's compulsory.

00:01:35For example, if suppose someone wishes you,

00:01:41As-Salaamu Alaikum,

00:01:43you should wish back,

00:01:45Wa-Alaikum As-Salaam wa-Rahmatullah.

00:01:47If someone says,

00:01:49As-Salaamu Alaikum wa-Rahmatullah,

00:01:51you should wish back,

00:01:52Wa-Alaikum As-Salaam wa-Rahmatullah wa-Barqatuhu.

00:01:55May peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala,

00:01:58be on all of you.

00:01:59Or if someone says,

00:02:02As-Salaamu Alaikum,

00:02:03you can even reply,

00:02:04Wa-Alaikum As-Salaam.

00:02:06The words are the same,

00:02:08but it is coming from within the heart,

00:02:10from the depth of the heart,

00:02:12from the bottom of the heart.

00:02:13The words are the same,

00:02:14but it is still a more courteous greeting.

00:02:17Wa-Alaikum As-Salaam.

00:02:19Or if someone says,

00:02:20As-Salaamu Alaikum wa-Rahmatullah wa-Barqatuhu.

00:02:23And if you cannot improve on that,

00:02:25at least say,

00:02:26Wa-Alaikum As-Salaam wa-Rahmatullah wa-Barqatuhu.

00:02:29Minimum of equal courtesy.

00:02:31But there are many Muslims,

00:02:32who own companies,

00:02:33who have got various employees under them.

00:02:35And when the employees,

00:02:36when they wish them,

00:02:37As-Salaamu Alaikum,

00:02:38they either nod,

00:02:40or they murmur,

00:02:41Wa-Alaikum As-Salaam.

00:02:42Some even don't care to reply.

00:02:45These Muslims,

00:02:46they are going against the commandment of Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala,

00:02:49in the glorious Quran,

00:02:50in Surah Nisaa,

00:02:51chapter 4, verse 86,

00:02:52it says,

00:02:53you should wish back more courteously,

00:02:56or at least wish back with equal courtesy.

00:03:01It's greet back the person with equal courtesy.

00:03:04It's minimum.

00:03:05Let's analyze the various types of greetings

00:03:08that we have in the society.

00:03:10And the most common of all the greetings,

00:03:13in English,

00:03:14we say,

00:03:15Good morning.

00:03:17In Afrikanas,

00:03:18people say,

00:03:19Khoi Mora,

00:03:20Asagabana.

00:03:21In Chinese,

00:03:22Chau Sun.

00:03:23In most of the languages,

00:03:25it's a very common greeting,

00:03:28Good morning.

00:03:29And suppose,

00:03:32it's a rainy day,

00:03:34it's raining cats and dogs.

00:03:37And if someone wishes you,

00:03:39Good morning,

00:03:40what is so good about that morning?

00:03:42It's raining cats and dogs,

00:03:44the city is flooded,

00:03:45and yet you say,

00:03:46Good morning,

00:03:46what is so good about that morning?

00:03:48And when we go to school,

00:03:51and if you are studying in English school,

00:03:54every period,

00:03:56in the beginning of the day,

00:03:58in the morning,

00:03:59when the teacher enters,

00:04:01all the students wish the teacher,

00:04:04Good morning, sir.

00:04:06It's compulsory.

00:04:06And maybe the teacher,

00:04:11before he left his house,

00:04:13maybe he had a fight with his wife early in the morning.

00:04:19He may be cursing that morning in his heart.

00:04:23He may be praying that never should such a morning ever come in his life.

00:04:27But in spite of this,

00:04:29when the students wish,

00:04:30Good morning, sir,

00:04:31he has to reply,

00:04:33Good morning.

00:04:35Even though,

00:04:36from the depth of his heart,

00:04:37he may never wish that such a morning should come again,

00:04:40yet he replies by,

00:04:41Good morning.

00:04:41What is so good about that morning?

00:04:43In which a person has a fight with his spouse.

00:04:47The best form of greeting,

00:04:49is a sum greeting.

00:04:51As-salamu alaykum.

00:04:53May peace be on you.

00:04:54Irrespective whether it's a rainy day,

00:04:56whether it's raining cats and dogs,

00:04:57whether you're at a fight with your spouse,

00:04:59or with your friend,

00:05:00yet,

00:05:01the greeting,

00:05:02As-salamu alaykum,

00:05:04may peace be on you,

00:05:05is the most appropriate.

00:05:09We have another form of greeting,

00:05:11especially among the young people,

00:05:14who go to schools and colleges.

00:05:16When they wish their friend,

00:05:17they say hi.

00:05:20And if,

00:05:21a young friend,

00:05:22wishes to his friend across the street,

00:05:24hi,

00:05:25the friend will reply,

00:05:25Hi!

00:05:27And when you ask him,

00:05:29what is the meaning of hi?

00:05:31No one will be able to reply.

00:05:33What is the meaning of hi?

00:05:36No one will be able to reply.

00:05:39In Hindi,

00:05:40that's the local language,

00:05:41out here,

00:05:42hi,

00:05:43is,

00:05:44a form of disgust.

00:05:46You know, hi.

00:05:47In English,

00:05:49with H-I-G-H,

00:05:50hi means,

00:05:51something which is on a height.

00:05:52And another meaning of hi is a slang word

00:05:55for a person who's intoxicated.

00:05:58And people say,

00:05:59I went to the party,

00:06:00and I got high,

00:06:01I got drunk,

00:06:02I got intoxicated.

00:06:04Is it a courteous greeting?

00:06:06In fact,

00:06:07I say,

00:06:08it is not a greeting at all.

00:06:10Leave aside,

00:06:11it being a courteous greeting,

00:06:12hi is not a greeting at all.

00:06:13The other common greeting

00:06:18which most of us use

00:06:19is hello.

00:06:22And if we look up

00:06:24in the Oxford Dictionary

00:06:26the meaning of hello,

00:06:28it says,

00:06:29an informal greeting.

00:06:33And the other meaning given

00:06:34in the Oxford Dictionary is

00:06:36that to begin

00:06:39a telephonic conversation,

00:06:42to begin a talk,

00:06:43to start a talk

00:06:44on the telephone.

00:06:47Do you know,

00:06:47how did

00:06:48this idea come about?

00:06:50That to start

00:06:51a telephonic conversation

00:06:52you should say hello.

00:06:54The person who invented

00:06:56the telephone

00:06:56was

00:06:57Sir Alexander Graham Bell.

00:07:00And once,

00:07:01when he was leaving his house

00:07:02in a hurry,

00:07:03the bell rang.

00:07:04And to initiate

00:07:05an early response,

00:07:07he said hello.

00:07:08So that he can greet the person,

00:07:10and the person responds fast,

00:07:12and he can go out

00:07:12of the house

00:07:13soon.

00:07:15This word hello

00:07:16to start

00:07:17a telephonic conversation

00:07:18has stuck

00:07:19since that time

00:07:20and even today

00:07:21everyone uses it.

00:07:23You use it,

00:07:23and even I use it.

00:07:26Hello to start

00:07:26a telephonic conversation.

00:07:29But nowadays,

00:07:30especially in Bombay,

00:07:32thanks to the MTNL,

00:07:34that the word hello

00:07:35is used more often

00:07:37in between a conversation.

00:07:39Because when the sound

00:07:40goes low,

00:07:40you say hello,

00:07:40can you hear me?

00:07:41Hello?

00:07:42The Oxford Dictionary

00:07:43says hello

00:07:44is used to start

00:07:45a telephonic conversation.

00:07:47But in Bombay,

00:07:48it's used more

00:07:48in between the talk

00:07:50than the beginning

00:07:50of the talk.

00:07:52And since the time

00:07:53the mobile has been invented,

00:07:55and

00:07:55when

00:07:57the area of reception

00:07:59is not very clear,

00:08:00you have to use the word hello

00:08:01even in between

00:08:02the telephonic conversation.

00:08:04So maybe in the

00:08:05Revised Edition

00:08:05of Oxford Dictionary,

00:08:07they may change the meaning

00:08:08hello

00:08:08can also be used

00:08:09in between

00:08:10a telephonic conversation.

00:08:13I fail to realize

00:08:15that why does

00:08:17the Western world

00:08:18use any other

00:08:19form of greeting

00:08:20than the one

00:08:21used by Jesus

00:08:22peace be upon him?

00:08:24Why do the Westerners,

00:08:25especially the Christians,

00:08:27use any other

00:08:28form of greeting

00:08:29than the one

00:08:30used by Jesus

00:08:31peace be upon him?

00:08:32And if you read the Bible,

00:08:35it's mentioned

00:08:35in the New Testament,

00:08:37in the Gospel of Luke,

00:08:39chapter number 24,

00:08:40verse number 36,

00:08:41that after the

00:08:42Elish crucifixion,

00:08:44when Jesus

00:08:45peace be upon him,

00:08:45goes to the upper room

00:08:46to meet the disciples,

00:08:48he wishes them

00:08:49in Hebrew,

00:08:50Shalamualaikum.

00:08:52If you translate

00:08:53the Hebrew

00:08:53into Arabic,

00:08:55it means

00:08:56As-Salamualaikum.

00:08:58And if you translate

00:08:58it into English,

00:08:59it means

00:09:00may peace

00:09:01be on you.

00:09:03The best

00:09:03and the most

00:09:04universal

00:09:05form of

00:09:06any greeting

00:09:07is

00:09:07As-Salamualaikum.

00:09:09May peace

00:09:09be on you.

00:09:13And our beloved

00:09:14Prophet,

00:09:15Muhammad,

00:09:15peace be upon him,

00:09:17was always

00:09:18the first person

00:09:25many of the

00:09:26companions of the

00:09:26beloved Prophet,

00:09:27on many occasions,

00:09:29they tried to be

00:09:30the first person

00:09:31to greet,

00:09:33but

00:09:33they failed.

00:09:35The Prophet,

00:09:36Alhamdulillah,

00:09:36was always the

00:09:37first person

00:09:38to greet.

00:09:40And a beloved

00:09:40Prophet,

00:09:41Muhammad,

00:10:14A smaller group

00:10:15should first

00:10:16greet

00:10:17the larger group.

00:10:19That means

00:10:19if a person

00:10:20is riding

00:10:20on an animal

00:10:23like horse,

00:10:24etc.,

00:11:30The first is

00:11:48these are

00:11:49the five rights

00:12:04should first

00:12:05greet a person

00:12:06who is going

00:12:06up the flight of stairs.

00:12:09These are the teachings

00:12:10of the beloved Prophet

00:12:11Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.

00:12:12Now,

00:12:13how is it possible

00:12:14for any Muslim

00:12:15to follow

00:12:18the commandments

00:12:25which is mentioned

00:12:27in Surah Anam

00:15:18there are various

00:15:20other batches available

00:15:20and we have

00:15:22a great variety

00:15:24in the Islamist foundation

00:15:26batches mentioning

00:15:27la ilaha illallah

00:15:28Muhammad Rasulullah

00:15:30that there is no God

00:15:31but Allah

00:15:31and Prophet Muhammad

00:15:32is the messenger

00:15:34of Allah

00:15:34subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:15:35we have batches

00:15:36mentioning

00:15:36Quran

00:15:37is the word of God

00:15:39for universal guidance

00:15:40when a person

00:15:42sees the batch

00:15:43a non-Muslim

00:15:44he may also be inquisitive

00:15:46that

00:15:47what is this batch

00:15:48you are wearing

00:15:49what does it mean

00:15:51Allah

00:15:51and you have an opportunity

00:15:53to do dawah

00:15:54he may ask

00:15:56that Quran

00:15:56the word of God

00:15:57what is this Quran

00:15:59an opportunity

00:16:00to talk

00:16:01it's not possible

00:16:03for all the Muslims

00:16:05in the ummah

00:16:05to wear a batch

00:16:07like the one I am wearing

00:16:07it's difficult

00:16:08it's not freely available

00:16:10and it's also expensive

00:16:11therefore I wouldn't say

00:16:14that everyone

00:16:15should wear a batch

00:16:15and neither do I

00:16:16wear a batch always

00:16:17I don't wear this batch always

00:16:19just a few times

00:16:20not always

00:16:21when I wear the coat

00:16:22I wear a batch

00:16:23not always

00:16:24it's not practical

00:16:24that every Muslim

00:16:26should wear such a batch

00:16:27why don't we Muslims

00:16:30wear a label

00:16:31which is being worn

00:16:33since ages

00:16:35and it's already there

00:16:36in our community

00:16:37since ages

00:16:39I'm referring

00:16:40to the beard

00:16:42and the cap

00:16:43that why don't we Muslims

00:16:46wear the label

00:16:47that is

00:16:49sport a beard

00:16:50and

00:16:51wear a cap

00:16:52there may be many

00:16:55Muslim brothers of mine

00:16:56who may ask me

00:16:57that brother Zakir

00:16:59what does

00:17:01the cap

00:17:02and the beard

00:17:03have to do with Islam

00:17:04do I have to wear a cap

00:17:07and sport a beard

00:17:08for Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:17:10to recognize

00:17:11that I am a Muslim

00:17:12for Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:17:14to recognize

00:17:15any human being

00:17:16whether he is a Muslim

00:17:17or not

00:17:17he doesn't require us

00:17:19to wear

00:17:19a cap

00:17:20or sport a beard

00:17:21Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:17:23is in my game

00:17:24he has the knowledge

00:17:25if you deserve

00:17:27Jannah

00:17:39to recognize

00:17:40whether you are a Muslim

00:17:40or not

00:17:41but the question

00:17:42I ask

00:17:43that how will

00:17:44I as a Muslim

00:17:45who doesn't

00:17:47have a little gab

00:17:47will recognize

00:18:30which says

00:18:31that it is a fard

00:18:32to keep a beard

00:18:33there is not a single

00:18:34verse in the glorious Quran

00:18:35the only place

00:18:38where the Quran

00:18:39mentions about the beard

00:18:40is in Surah Taha

00:18:42chapter number 20

00:18:43verse number 94

00:19:25that's all

00:19:26this verse doesn't say

00:19:28that it is compulsory

00:19:29for every Muslim

00:19:31to keep a beard

00:19:32but

00:19:33the glorious Quran

00:19:35says

00:19:36in several places

00:19:37in several places

00:19:41in Surah Al-Imran

00:19:43chapter number 3

00:19:43verse number 32

00:19:44in Surah Al-Imran

00:19:46chapter number 3

00:20:06in Surah Muhammad

00:20:07chapter number 47

00:20:09verse number 33

00:20:10in Surah Mujahidullah

00:20:11chapter number 58

00:20:12verse number 13

00:20:13in several places, including

00:20:15Surah Taqabun, chapter number 64,

00:20:17verse number 12, the glorious Quran says,

00:20:19Atiullah wa Atiur Rasul.

00:20:22Obey Allah and

00:20:23obey the messenger.

00:20:25It's compulsory that every Muslim

00:20:27should obey Allah and

00:20:29obey the messenger.

00:20:31And it's mentioned

00:20:32in Sahih Bukhari,

00:20:35volume number 7,

00:20:37in the book of dress,

00:20:39chapter number 64,

00:20:41hadith number 780,

00:20:42Nafi, may Allah be pleased with him,

00:20:44he narrated that Ibn Umar,

00:20:46the son of Umar, said

00:20:48that the prophet, peace be upon him,

00:20:50said that do the

00:20:52opposite of what the pagans do.

00:20:55Keep the beard

00:20:56and cut the

00:20:58moustaches short.

00:21:01It's a commandment of

00:21:02the beloved prophet that keep the beard

00:21:04and cut the moustaches short.

00:21:07It's further mentioned in

00:21:08Sahih Bukhari, volume number 7,

00:21:10in the book of dress,

00:21:12chapter number 65,

00:21:14hadith number 781,

00:21:16that Ibn Umar, may Allah be pleased with him,

00:21:20he narrates

00:21:20that the messenger of Allah,

00:21:23peace be upon him,

00:21:24said

00:21:24that

00:21:25cut your moustaches short

00:21:28and leave your beard.

00:21:30most of the scholars say that keeping a beard is

00:21:35mustahab.

00:21:37Mustahab means

00:21:38highly recommended.

00:21:40Or some people say

00:21:40sunnah-e-mauqidah.

00:21:42It's a highly recommended sunnah

00:21:44of the beloved prophet.

00:21:46While there are many other scholars who say

00:21:48that because the Quran says,

00:21:49Atiyu Allah, Atiyu Rasul,

00:21:51obey Allah and obey the messenger,

00:21:54any commandment of the messenger

00:21:56becomes a fard on every Muslim.

00:21:58So there are many scholars who say

00:22:00that keeping a beard is fard.

00:22:03Many scholars say

00:22:04it is mustahab,

00:22:06highly recommended,

00:22:07while some scholars say,

00:22:09many others say,

00:22:10that it is a fard

00:22:11because it's an amr.

00:22:13It's a commandment of the beloved prophet.

00:22:16Any commandment of the beloved prophet

00:22:17becomes a fard on every Muslim.

00:22:21But

00:22:26any Muslim,

00:22:29if he's a true Muslim,

00:22:30irrespective whether it's mustahab

00:22:32or a fard,

00:22:33he will keep a beard.

00:22:37There are many Muslims

00:22:38on whose faith

00:22:42the beard will suit very well

00:22:43if they have a good growth.

00:22:45There are many Muslims

00:22:45on whose faith

00:22:47the beard may not suit.

00:22:49I remember the first time

00:22:50when I kept a beard.

00:22:52when I was studying

00:22:53in the medical college.

00:22:54And my growth

00:22:55was very sparse.

00:22:56Even now,

00:22:57it's not thick.

00:22:58It is the same.

00:22:59But previously,

00:23:00it was more sparse.

00:23:00You know,

00:23:01just a few hair

00:23:01here and there.

00:23:03So when I started

00:23:03keeping a beard,

00:23:04one of the Muslim brothers said,

00:23:06MashaAllah,

00:23:07you have a nurani chair.

00:23:08The beard

00:23:09has thrown light on your face

00:23:11and the beard suits you.

00:23:13What the Muslim brother

00:23:14was trying to do

00:23:14was to encourage me

00:23:15that I should continue

00:23:16keeping the beard.

00:23:17Alhamdulillah.

00:23:18But I knew

00:23:18that as far as looks

00:23:20as concerned,

00:23:20the beard did not suit me.

00:23:23You know,

00:23:23just a few hair here

00:23:24and a few hair here

00:23:24and a few hair there.

00:23:25It didn't suit me.

00:23:26Even now,

00:23:26after so many years,

00:23:28it has grown a bit.

00:23:29Alhamdulillah.

00:23:30But not like many of us people

00:23:32who have got a good growth.

00:23:34Alhamdulillah.

00:23:34I had a sparse growth.

00:23:38But I have a logic

00:23:40and I say

00:23:41that those Muslims

00:23:42who have a good growth

00:23:44and if the beard suits them

00:23:45and they keep the beard,

00:23:47inshallah,

00:23:49they will get the sawaab

00:23:50because they are being

00:23:51Allah and his messenger.

00:23:52But those Muslims

00:23:53who don't have a good growth

00:23:55and if the beard

00:23:57doesn't suit them

00:23:58and yet

00:23:59if they keep the beard

00:24:00to follow Allah

00:24:02and his Rasul,

00:24:02inshallah,

00:24:03they will get more sawaab.

00:24:05Because imagine,

00:24:06even though the beard

00:24:07doesn't suit me,

00:24:08if the beard

00:24:09doesn't suit a Muslim,

00:24:10yet he keeps

00:24:11for the love of Allah

00:24:12and his Rasul.

00:24:13I consider

00:24:13that inshallah,

00:24:15he will get more sawaab.

00:24:17All those who keep the beard

00:24:18will get the sawaab

00:24:19but the person

00:24:20on whom the beard

00:24:21doesn't suit

00:24:21and yet he keeps it

00:24:23knowing very well

00:24:24it doesn't suit him

00:24:25for the love of Allah

00:24:25and his Rasul,

00:24:26he will get multiple times

00:24:28more sawaab.

00:24:32Normally,

00:24:33if you analyze

00:24:33that all the human beings

00:24:36who keep a beard,

00:24:38if you

00:24:39take a survey,

00:24:41approximately

00:24:42more than

00:24:43three-fourths

00:24:44of the men

00:24:46who sport a beard,

00:24:48they are Muslims.

00:24:49More than 75%

00:24:50of the men

00:24:51who sport a beard,

00:24:52they are Muslims.

00:24:53Maybe

00:24:53about 25%,

00:24:55maybe non-Muslims.

00:24:57But those non-Muslims

00:24:59who sport a beard,

00:25:01they may have

00:25:02a typical type of beard,

00:25:03you know,

00:25:03with the mustache

00:25:04curled up

00:25:04so you can make out

00:25:05that he's not a Muslim

00:25:08or may have

00:25:09a particular type

00:25:09of beard resembling

00:25:10some other personality

00:25:12indicating that

00:25:13this is not

00:25:13an Islamic type of beard

00:25:14or he may wear

00:25:15an additional sign

00:25:17like a tikka

00:25:19owned by the Hindus

00:25:20or wear a cross

00:25:21the sign of a Christian.

00:25:24So most of the time

00:25:25when the non-Muslims

00:25:26keep a beard,

00:25:28depending upon

00:25:29the type of the beard

00:25:29or the sign

00:25:30that they're wearing

00:25:31a cross or a tikka,

00:25:32you can identify

00:25:33that though this person

00:25:34has a beard,

00:25:35he is a non-Muslim.

00:25:37So when you meet

00:25:37a person

00:25:38sporting a beard,

00:25:40majority of the time,

00:25:42more than 95%

00:25:43of the time,

00:25:44you can identify

00:25:45whether this person

00:25:46is a Muslim or not.

00:25:51And

00:25:51for additional,

00:25:53for additional assurance,

00:25:56we have another label.

00:25:58I'm referring to the cap.

00:25:59People may ask me

00:26:03that is it a fard

00:26:04to wear a cap?

00:26:06There is no verse

00:26:07in the glorious Quran

00:26:07saying that

00:26:08it's a fard to wear a cap.

00:26:10Neither did our prophet

00:26:10say that it's a fard

00:26:11to wear a cap.

00:26:12So I wouldn't say

00:26:13it's a fard.

00:26:14But

00:26:14it is a sunnah.

00:26:18And if you read

00:26:18Sahih Bukhari,

00:26:23form number 7

00:26:23in the book of Dress,

00:26:26chapter number 16,

00:26:29it's mentioned

00:26:30according

00:26:30to Ibn Abbas

00:26:32that the beloved prophet

00:26:33Muhammad

00:26:34when he came,

00:26:38he wore a black turban.

00:26:40The prophet,

00:26:41whenever he went out,

00:26:44he always covered the head.

00:26:45Unless he was

00:26:46in a state of Ahra,

00:26:47he always covered the head.

00:26:49According

00:26:50to Anas bin Malik,

00:26:54he said

00:26:54that when the prophet

00:26:55came out,

00:26:56he covered the head

00:26:57with a part of his garment.

00:27:00Further,

00:27:01if you read

00:27:01in Sahih Bukhari,

00:27:02form number 7,

00:27:03in the book of Dress,

00:27:05chapter number 17,

00:27:06Hadith number 699,

00:27:08Anas bin Malik,

00:27:11he said

00:27:12that in the year

00:27:14of the conquest of Mecca,

00:27:15when the prophet

00:27:16entered Mecca,

00:27:17he was wearing a helmet.

00:27:19The prophet

00:27:19always covered his head.

00:27:21So it is a sunnah

00:27:22to cover your head,

00:27:23whether it be

00:27:24with a piece of cloth

00:27:26or

00:27:26like a head covering

00:27:28with the Arabs wear

00:27:29or a cap.

00:27:32And

00:27:32the muhaddis,

00:27:35those who are experts

00:27:35in the knowledge

00:27:38of Hadith,

00:27:40if they have to verify

00:27:41whether the rabi,

00:27:42whether the person

00:27:42who narrated

00:27:43is a sikka,

00:27:45is true or not,

00:27:46many of the muhaddis

00:27:47who are staunch,

00:27:49they do not regard

00:27:50the Hadith

00:27:51of a narrator

00:27:52who did not cover his head.

00:27:54Because if a narrator

00:27:55did not cover his head,

00:27:56the staunch muhaddis say,

00:27:57we will not accept his Hadith.

00:28:00So imagine

00:28:01it is a sunnah

00:28:02to cover the head.

00:28:05And

00:28:05the cap,

00:28:07it is so cheap.

00:28:10It is so cheap.

00:28:12You know,

00:28:12hardly cost about 10 rupees,

00:28:1415 rupees,

00:28:14or 20 rupees.

00:28:15The one that I am wearing,

00:28:17it's made in China,

00:28:18cost about 25 rupees.

00:28:21It's a harmless thing.

00:28:23It cannot even hurt a fly.

00:28:25It is so harmless.

00:28:26But it can do wonders.

00:28:29It can do wonders.

00:28:31And

00:28:32I normally keep on travelling.

00:28:34Alhamdulillah.

00:28:35I keep on travelling

00:28:36in various parts of the world.

00:28:38And people,

00:28:39when they see me,

00:28:40especially when I go to the Western country,

00:28:41who is this man?

00:28:42You know,

00:28:42fine-looking man

00:28:43wearing a coat

00:28:44and trousers

00:28:45and wearing a cap.

00:28:46It looks a bit funny.

00:28:47And many people

00:28:50who aren't aware,

00:28:51they ask,

00:28:51what is this cap?

00:28:53So I tell him,

00:28:54it's a sign,

00:28:55it's my label.

00:28:56I'm a Muslim.

00:28:57Oh, you're a Muslim.

00:28:59An opportunity to Dawah,

00:29:01where it is a farz in Islam.

00:29:02An opportunity.

00:29:04People wonder,

00:29:05what is this person,

00:29:05you know,

00:29:06wearing a funny type of headgear?

00:29:08They come and approach you.

00:29:09They are giving you an opportunity

00:29:11to open your mouth.

00:29:13It does wonders.

00:29:14People start respecting you,

00:29:16Alhamdulillah.

00:29:17It's a harmless thing.

00:29:19It can't even hurt a fly,

00:29:20but it does wonders.

00:29:23And if suppose you're working

00:29:25in an office,

00:29:27which is being owned by a non-Muslim,

00:29:30and if suppose

00:29:30he does not like you wearing the cap.

00:29:33It's very easy.

00:29:34Take it out

00:29:35and keep it in your pocket.

00:29:37But the moment

00:29:38the office time is over,

00:29:41you can wear the cap back.

00:29:44It's,

00:29:46you're right.

00:29:47He's only paying you

00:29:48for eight or ten hours

00:29:49that you're working for him.

00:29:51But the moment you come out,

00:29:53you can wear the cap.

00:29:54It's preferable to wear it always,

00:29:56but suppose you have

00:29:57a certain problem

00:29:58that you have to work in that office

00:29:59and if it doesn't allow you,

00:30:00no problem.

00:30:01Take out the cap

00:30:02and keep it in your pocket.

00:30:05It does wonders.

00:30:06You know,

00:30:07when we go to the mosque,

00:30:08Alhamdulillah,

00:30:09we see that the majority

00:30:10of the Muslims,

00:30:11they wear the cap.

00:30:12Alhamdulillah.

00:30:13But when they come out,

00:30:14most of them

00:30:15put it in the pocket.

00:30:16Why?

00:30:17What is the problem?

00:30:20Are you afraid

00:30:21to identify yourself

00:30:22to be Muslim outside?

00:30:23Are you afraid?

00:30:25What are you afraid of?

00:30:26In the mosque,

00:30:27Alhamdulillah,

00:30:27you wear the cap.

00:30:28But when you come out,

00:30:29you put the label

00:30:30in your pocket.

00:30:31See,

00:30:31in the mosque,

00:30:33people recognize

00:30:33you're a Muslim.

00:30:35Alhamdulillah,

00:30:36you should even wear it there.

00:30:37But when you come out,

00:30:38why do you keep it

00:30:39in your pocket?

00:30:42And if you ask

00:30:43your grandparents

00:30:43and those

00:30:45elderly people,

00:30:47they will tell you

00:30:48that people respected

00:30:51this label,

00:30:52the cap and the beard.

00:30:54And the non-Muslims,

00:30:55very often,

00:30:57when they wanted

00:30:57to hire a taxi,

00:30:59a cab,

00:31:01they searched

00:31:01for a driver

00:31:02who wore a cap

00:31:03and a beard.

00:31:05You know,

00:31:05so that,

00:31:05oh,

00:31:05these are Muslims,

00:31:06you know,

00:31:07they're honest people.

00:31:08They will not cheat us.

00:31:09They will not take us

00:31:10for a ride.

00:31:11And if you have

00:31:12to purchase something

00:31:13from a shop,

00:31:15they prefer going

00:31:16to a shop

00:31:16which was owned

00:31:17by a person

00:31:17sporting a beard

00:31:18and wearing a cap.

00:31:19Ah,

00:31:19they will not cheat us.

00:31:20They will wear

00:31:21the material correctly.

00:31:23The label had the respect.

00:31:25But nowadays,

00:31:26if you're wearing a cap

00:31:29and sporting a beard,

00:31:30oh,

00:31:31you're coming from

00:31:31Bindi Bazar,

00:31:32from Dongri.

00:31:34Ah,

00:31:34this person may be

00:31:35a gunda,

00:31:36you know.

00:31:37He may be a hooligan.

00:31:39It's a shame

00:31:40that we Muslims,

00:31:41we are to blame.

00:31:42We have spoiled

00:31:43the respect

00:31:44of our label.

00:31:46And it is true

00:31:47that there are

00:31:48some Muslims

00:31:48who misuse

00:31:50this label

00:31:51and they try

00:31:52and show that

00:31:53they're macho,

00:31:53you know.

00:31:54Oh,

00:31:54we are brave.

00:31:55Wearing a cap

00:31:56and sporting a beard.

00:31:57Miyaabai.

00:31:58On to Dada Agiri.

00:31:59Want to go around

00:31:59and show that

00:32:00we are macho.

00:32:01There are a few of us

00:32:02who have spoiled the name.

00:32:05Therefore,

00:32:05many Muslims say,

00:32:06let's see,

00:32:06I don't want to wear

00:32:07a cap and sport a beard.

00:32:08Otherwise,

00:32:09he'll think that

00:32:09I'm a gunda.

00:32:10I'm a hooligan.

00:32:11Therefore,

00:32:11I don't want to wear

00:32:12the cap or the beard.

00:32:13You know,

00:32:13people argue.

00:32:15So I tell them,

00:32:16because of a mistake

00:32:17of a few of the Muslim

00:32:18brothers

00:32:19who have spoiled the labels,

00:32:21why should

00:32:21we ourselves

00:32:23stop respecting the label?

00:32:25Even if I agree with you,

00:32:28for sake of argument,

00:32:29that every person

00:32:30wearing a cap

00:32:31and sporting a beard

00:32:31is not a good person,

00:32:33for sake of argument,

00:32:34what I tell

00:32:35the Muslim brothers.

00:32:35at least you

00:32:37be the first person

00:32:38who starts wearing a cap

00:32:40and sporting a beard

00:32:41and say,

00:32:41I don't know about

00:32:42the other people.

00:32:43At least I am a Muslim

00:32:44who wears the label,

00:32:46has a cap,

00:32:46sports a beard

00:32:47and I'm a good Muslim.

00:32:49I'm a good human being.

00:32:50I don't cheat.

00:32:52I don't tell lies.

00:32:54I don't bribe.

00:32:55I'm a good Muslim.

00:32:57You at least be

00:32:57the first person

00:32:58to initiate.

00:32:59Tomorrow,

00:33:00there'll be 10 people,

00:33:01there'll be 100 people,

00:33:02there'll be 1,000 people

00:33:03and inshallah,

00:33:04once again,

00:33:05the respect for the label,

00:33:07the cap and the beard

00:33:07will be restored.

00:33:09We cannot give this argument,

00:33:11oh, you know,

00:33:11because, you know,

00:33:12if we wear the label,

00:33:13people think that

00:33:14we are bad,

00:33:15we are hooligans.

00:33:16We have to change the society.

00:33:19We have to bring back

00:33:21the respect

00:33:22which our label has lost.

00:33:27And,

00:33:28there are many Muslims

00:33:30who are apologetic.

00:33:33who are afraid

00:33:34to identify themselves

00:33:35as Muslims.

00:33:36You know why?

00:33:37That if they wear the label,

00:33:38wear a cap

00:33:38and sport the beard,

00:33:40the people may ask the question,

00:33:41ah,

00:33:42you are the same Muslim

00:33:43who is allowed to marry

00:33:44more than one wife.

00:33:45Ah.

00:33:46Oh,

00:33:46you are the same Muslim

00:33:48who is circumcised.

00:33:51Ah,

00:33:52the same Muslim

00:33:52who does not have alcohol,

00:33:54who keeps the woman

00:33:55in the veil,

00:33:56who subjugates the woman.

00:33:57so they are afraid

00:33:58to identify themselves

00:33:59as Muslims.

00:34:00I am asking a question.

00:34:04That if the area

00:34:05is notorious,

00:34:06an area which is notorious,

00:34:08that are gangsters

00:34:09living in that area,

00:34:10a normal human being

00:34:11will be a bit afraid

00:34:12to go in that area.

00:34:13But suppose

00:34:14if you have a machine gun

00:34:15and if you know

00:34:17how to operate

00:34:18that machine gun,

00:34:19will you get scared?

00:34:20Will you ever get scared

00:34:21to go in an area

00:34:22which is controlled

00:34:23by gangsters?

00:34:23No.

00:34:24You have the stand gun

00:34:25with you,

00:34:25you have the machine gun,

00:34:26you know how to use it.

00:34:28Similarly,

00:34:28if every Muslim

00:34:29knows the reply

00:34:31to the common question

00:34:33asked by non-Muslims,

00:34:35no Muslim will ever

00:34:36be shy

00:34:37or afraid

00:34:38to identify himself

00:34:39as a Muslim.

00:34:41The reason we are afraid

00:34:42to identify ourselves

00:34:43as a Muslim

00:34:43is because we cannot

00:34:44answer the question

00:34:45which is posed

00:34:46by the non-Muslims.

00:34:48And for this,

00:34:49Alhamdulillah,

00:34:50I have prepared a booklet.

00:34:51The reply is

00:34:54to the most common question

00:34:55asked by non-Muslims.

00:34:58And there are

00:34:58about 20 common questions

00:34:59which a non-Muslim poses

00:35:00about Islam

00:35:01to a Muslim.

00:35:03And the answer

00:35:04to these questions

00:35:05have been given

00:35:06in that booklet

00:35:06which will inshallah

00:35:07be printed.

00:35:08If every Muslim

00:35:10masters

00:35:11the reply

00:35:12to these questions,

00:35:14he will never ever

00:35:15feel apologetic

00:35:16to face

00:35:17the non-Muslim.

00:35:19He'll be proud.

00:35:21Alhamdulillah,

00:35:22if I have to go out

00:35:23not wearing a cap,

00:35:25it is like

00:35:26a fish out of water.

00:35:28Without the label,

00:35:29it's like a fish

00:35:30out of water.

00:35:32Alhamdulillah,

00:35:32this cap,

00:35:33it does wonders.

00:35:34It helps me

00:35:35to do my job.

00:35:36It helps me

00:35:37to remain

00:35:37on the Sarat al-Mustaqim,

00:35:39on the Haq.

00:35:40Because I identify

00:35:41myself as Muslims

00:35:42and I agree

00:35:44that I am a person

00:35:46who follows

00:35:46the religion of Haq,

00:35:47Deen al-Haq.

00:35:48Every religion

00:35:52has a certain label.

00:35:56The Christians,

00:35:58their label

00:35:59is the cross.

00:36:01The Hindus,

00:36:03their label

00:36:03is the Aum

00:36:03or maybe

00:36:04a Vermilion,

00:36:05a Tika

00:36:05which they wear

00:36:06on the head.

00:36:08The Jews,

00:36:09they wear a small cap

00:36:10behind.

00:36:12We can either identify

00:36:12this is our Muslim cap,

00:36:14it's a Jewish cap,

00:36:15small cap.

00:36:15Every religion

00:36:17has a certain label.

00:36:20But the community

00:36:21which should be appreciated,

00:36:25which should be

00:36:25maximally appreciated

00:36:26for wearing the label

00:36:28is the Sikh community.

00:36:31The Sikhs,

00:36:32they are hardly 2%

00:36:33in the population

00:36:36of India

00:36:36which is close

00:36:37to a billion people.

00:36:39less than 2%

00:36:41are Sikhs.

00:36:43But,

00:36:44they are proud

00:36:45to identify themselves

00:36:46as Sikhs.

00:36:47Always,

00:36:48they wear the label.

00:36:49You know,

00:36:49they wear that turban

00:36:50which is a particular

00:36:51type of turban

00:36:52the way they tie it

00:36:53and they also have a beard.

00:36:55They are proud

00:36:55to identify themselves

00:36:56as Sikhs.

00:36:58And if

00:36:59any person

00:37:00wants to indicate

00:37:02that this human being

00:37:04is an Indian

00:37:05coming from India,

00:37:06he will always

00:37:07focus on a Sikh.

00:37:08For example,

00:37:09if you see

00:37:10in a cricket match

00:37:11or any match

00:37:12which is going abroad

00:37:12and if they want

00:37:13to identify

00:37:14that Indians

00:37:14are there

00:37:14in the audience,

00:37:15they will focus

00:37:16on a Sikh.

00:37:17Though he is

00:37:18less than 2%.

00:37:18He is not an Indian

00:37:20which is a sample Indian.

00:37:22Less than 2%.

00:37:23A minority

00:37:24of a minority.

00:37:25Yet,

00:37:27when the people

00:37:27want to identify

00:37:28that he is an Indian,

00:37:29they focus on a Sikh

00:37:30because he is proud

00:37:31to wear his label.

00:37:34Irrespective

00:37:34whether

00:37:35he endures himself

00:37:36in the army

00:37:37or the navy

00:37:38or the air force,

00:37:39he does not

00:37:40give up his label.

00:37:42And I was shocked

00:37:43that when I had

00:37:45been to Canada,

00:37:47I did a report

00:37:47that a Sikh

00:37:50who migrated to Canada

00:37:52and was a citizen

00:37:54of Canada,

00:37:57the Canadian government

00:37:58objected

00:37:59that he cannot

00:38:00wear the turban

00:38:00in the army.

00:38:02He fought a case

00:38:03in the court

00:38:03and he won the case

00:38:05and he won the case

00:38:05that even in Canada

00:38:06he was allowed

00:38:08to maintain

00:38:09his label.

00:38:10Imagine,

00:38:11in Canada,

00:38:12he wants to

00:38:12identify himself

00:38:13that he is a Sikh

00:38:14and he won the case.

00:38:16We know many

00:38:16of the Muslims

00:38:17who when they go

00:38:18for a job

00:38:19and if the boss

00:38:20says,

00:38:20you know the beard

00:38:21is a bit shabby,

00:38:22I'll give you a job

00:38:23if you remove the beard

00:38:24and many of us

00:38:25next day

00:38:26will shave the beard.

00:38:28It's a shame on us.

00:38:32The Sikhs,

00:38:32a minority of a minority

00:38:33in the world population

00:38:35it's insignificant

00:38:37yet they want

00:38:38to identify themselves

00:38:39as Sikhs.

00:38:41I'm not talking

00:38:41about all the Muslims,

00:38:42I'm talking about

00:38:43a few Muslims

00:38:43who are afraid

00:38:44to wear the label.

00:38:46It's a shame.

00:38:48And our beloved prophet,

00:38:50Muhammad Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,

00:38:51he said,

00:38:52it's mentioned

00:38:53it's a Muslim.

00:38:55Volume number two,

00:38:56in the book of Salah,

00:38:58Hadith number 1932

00:39:02as well as 1933

00:39:04and 1934

00:39:05and three Hadith

00:39:06the beloved prophet said

00:39:07that when you go

00:39:09for the Idain Salah,

00:39:10for Salah of Idul Fitr

00:39:12and Idul Adah,

00:39:14the Ramzanid

00:39:15and the Baqirid

00:39:15which as we know here,

00:39:17when you go

00:39:18for the Salah of this

00:39:19to Idain,

00:39:21take along with you

00:39:22the young woman

00:39:23as well as

00:39:25the menstruating woman

00:39:26as well as

00:39:28the Pardha observing woman,

00:39:30even though

00:39:30the menstruating woman,

00:39:32they do not offer Salah,

00:39:33they only supplicate,

00:39:34take them along.

00:39:36The prophet said,

00:39:37when you go

00:39:37for the Idain Salah,

00:39:38take along with you

00:39:39the children,

00:39:40the young woman,

00:39:40the Pardha observing woman,

00:39:42even the menstruating woman,

00:39:44even if they cannot pray.

00:39:46What was the logic

00:39:47of the beloved prophet

00:39:48to command

00:39:49the Muslim Ummah

00:39:50to go along

00:39:51with the young woman,

00:39:52Pardha observing woman,

00:39:53as well as

00:39:54the menstruating woman,

00:39:55even if they cannot

00:39:56offer Salah.

00:39:57What was the logic?

00:40:00The logic is

00:40:00that

00:40:02as we know

00:40:03for the Id Salah,

00:40:06all the people

00:40:07gather

00:40:07on one place,

00:40:09especially in the villages.

00:40:11If two, three villages

00:40:11are close by,

00:40:12they gather in a Idgah,

00:40:14a place where they offer

00:40:15Id Salah together.

00:40:17In the city in Bombay,

00:40:18it's a bit different,

00:40:19you know,

00:40:19because it's a city,

00:40:20it's a vast city,

00:40:21it's difficult,

00:40:21we can't go outside Bombay,

00:40:22it's too far,

00:40:24so we have the Id Salah

00:40:25in various mosques,

00:40:26but yet we try and see to it

00:40:27that the congregation

00:40:28is big.

00:40:30But normally,

00:40:31in the other places,

00:40:31villages, etc.,

00:40:33you gather together

00:40:33in the open ground

00:40:34in Idgah.

00:40:36For example,

00:40:37if there are three small villages,

00:40:40if they have a common Idgah,

00:40:41so the Muslim,

00:40:42when he comes for the Id Salah,

00:40:45he sees

00:40:4530,000 Muslims

00:40:48in these three small villages,

00:40:5030,000 Muslims,

00:40:51the morale of the Muslims

00:40:53is boosted.

00:40:55He feels proud.

00:40:5630,000 Muslims

00:40:57all gathered together,

00:40:58you know,

00:40:59you can make out

00:41:00that the Muslims,

00:41:01the morale is boosted.

00:41:03And if a non-Muslim,

00:41:05when he sees

00:41:0630,000 Muslims

00:41:08in these three small villages,

00:41:10he will think 10 times

00:41:13before creating mischief

00:41:14for the Muslims.

00:41:15If he has to create

00:41:16any trouble for the Muslims,

00:41:18he will think 100 times.

00:41:19And simultaneously,

00:41:22the morale of the Muslim

00:41:23is boosted.

00:41:24That's why the beloved Prophet said,

00:41:25when you go for Id Salah,

00:41:27gather in congregation

00:41:29along with the children,

00:41:30young women,

00:41:31parada observing women,

00:41:32as well as the menstruating women,

00:41:34even if they cannot offer Salah.

00:41:35For example,

00:41:40if you are travelling in a bus,

00:41:43travelling in a BST bus,

00:41:45and suppose,

00:41:47there is a Muslim sister

00:41:48of ours

00:41:49who is travelling in a bus.

00:41:50and if in that bus,

00:41:55along with the Muslim sister,

00:41:58sitting somewhere else,

00:41:59there are about

00:41:59five to ten Muslims

00:42:00sitting in the bus

00:42:02wearing the label,

00:42:04wearing a cap

00:42:05and sporting a beard.

00:42:06These ten people

00:42:07don't know each other.

00:42:08Neither do they know

00:42:09that Muslim girl.

00:42:11But if

00:42:11a non-Muslim

00:42:13wants to create mischief

00:42:15with the Muslim girl,

00:42:17if he wants to create trouble

00:42:18for the Muslim girl,

00:42:20for the Muslim,

00:42:21the non-Muslim

00:42:23will think ten times.

00:42:24Oh, there are ten people

00:42:25in the bus.

00:42:27You know,

00:42:27a Muslim wearing a cap

00:42:28and sporting a beard.

00:42:29He will think ten times

00:42:30before creating mischief.

00:42:32Even if those ten people

00:42:33are old people,

00:42:35they can't even raise a finger.

00:42:36Even if they can't hurt anyone yet,

00:42:39only seeing them,

00:42:41he will think ten times.

00:42:43Oh, ten people

00:42:44who are Muslims.

00:42:46If I create mischief,

00:42:47these ten people

00:42:48pounce on me.

00:42:50It does wonders.

00:42:52Wearing the label

00:42:52does wonders.

00:42:54It does not only benefit you,

00:42:55it even benefits

00:42:56your other Muslim

00:42:57brothers and sisters.

00:43:00Once,

00:43:02there was an elderly gentleman

00:43:03who was a good Muslim,

00:43:05Alhamdulillah,

00:43:06prayed five times a day,

00:43:07had gone for Hajj,

00:43:07he was a Haji.

00:43:11He always fasted

00:43:12in the month of Ramadan.

00:43:13He gave the zakat.

00:43:14He was a pious Muslim.

00:43:15But he did not have any label.

00:43:18Didn't wear the cap,

00:43:19did not sport a beard.

00:43:21One day when he goes

00:43:22on the streets

00:43:23to buy some fruits

00:43:24from the hawker,

00:43:26and he asks

00:43:28the name of the hawker,

00:43:30that young boy,

00:43:32that,

00:43:32Beta,

00:43:33son,

00:43:33what's your name?

00:43:35He says,

00:43:36Uncle,

00:43:37my name is Ahmad.

00:43:40So the elderly Muslim,

00:43:42he says,

00:43:43Beta,

00:43:43son,

00:43:44why didn't you wish me

00:43:45salaam?

00:43:46So the young Ahmad says,

00:43:49Uncle,

00:43:49I thought you were a Hindu.

00:43:52Imagine,

00:43:53the young boy,

00:43:54he calls the elderly,

00:43:56pious gentleman,

00:43:57a mushrik.

00:43:59The biggest abuse

00:44:00you can give

00:44:01to any Muslim

00:44:02is to call him a mushrik.

00:44:04There is no bigger abuse

00:44:05for a Muslim

00:44:07than to call him a mushrik.

00:44:09And the glory of Quran

00:44:10says in Surah Nisa,

00:44:11chapter 4,

00:44:11verse 48,

00:44:12as well as in Surah Nisa,

00:44:13chapter 4,

00:44:14verse 116,

00:44:14that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:44:16never forgiveth

00:44:18the sin

00:44:18of associating partners

00:44:20with Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:44:22Any other sin,

00:44:23if Allah pleases,

00:44:24He may forgive.

00:44:25But associating partners

00:44:26with Allah,

00:44:27shirk,

00:44:28He will never forgive.

00:44:29For,

00:44:30committing shirk

00:44:31is the most heinous sin.

00:44:34I am asking a question.

00:44:36Who is to blame?

00:44:38Who is to blame

00:44:39because he called

00:44:41that elderly gentleman

00:44:42a mushrik

00:44:42and the glorious Quran

00:44:45stays in Surah Nisa,

00:44:45in the chapter number 5,

00:44:46verse number 72.

00:44:48لَقَدْ قَفْرَ

00:44:49لَذِينَ قَالُوا

00:44:50إِنَّ اللَّهَ

00:44:50وَالْمَسِيُّ بْنُ مَرِمَا

00:44:52that they say,

00:44:54the Christians,

00:44:56that

00:44:56Jesus Christ,

00:44:58peace be upon him,

00:44:59is Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:45:02Jesus Christ,

00:45:02peace be upon him,

00:45:03the son of Mary,

00:45:04is Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:45:05The verse continues,

00:45:06وَقَالَ الْمَسِيحِ

00:45:07what's that Christ?

00:45:09يَعْبَنِ إِسْرَيْلِ

00:45:10أَوْشِيْنَ

00:45:10اَعْبُدُ اللَّهُ

00:45:12وَوَشِيْبَ اللَّهُ

00:45:13رَبِّ وَرَبَّكُمْ

00:45:14who's my Lord

00:45:15and your Lord.

00:45:16إِنَّهُ مَا شْرِكْ بِاللَّهُ

00:45:17And anyone who associates

00:45:19partners with Allah,

00:45:20فَقَدْ هَرَمَ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةِ

00:45:22Allah will make

00:45:23جَنَّة حَرَام for him.

00:45:24وَمَا وَهُنَّارِ

00:45:25وَمَا لِسَوْلِ بِالْمِنَسَارِ

00:45:26and fire shall be his dwelling place

00:45:28and he shall have

00:45:29no helpers in the hereafter.

00:45:32The glorious Quran says

00:45:33that

00:45:33إِنَّهُ مَا شْرِكْ بِاللَّهُ

00:45:34Anyone who associates

00:45:36partners with Allah,

00:45:37فَقَدْ هَرَمَ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةِ

00:45:39Allah will make

00:45:40جَنَّة حَرَام for him.

00:45:42Anyone who does shirk,

00:45:43he will go to hell.

00:45:45If he dies as a mushrik,

00:45:46he'll go to hell.

00:45:47I'm asking a question,

00:45:48who is to blame

00:45:49if a young Muslim boy

00:45:53calls the elderly gentleman

00:45:55and a mushrik

00:45:56who's to blame?

00:45:59You can't blame that young boy.

00:46:01He's innocent.

00:46:03It is the elderly gentleman

00:46:04who's to blame.

00:46:06But why doesn't

00:46:07he wear the label?

00:46:10If the label shows your intent,

00:46:12you should wear it.

00:46:16What is the label

00:46:17for the Muslimah,

00:46:19for the Muslim woman?

00:46:21Even they have a label.

00:46:22The Glorious Quran says

00:46:25in Surah Nur,

00:46:27chapter number 24,

00:46:28verse number 31,

00:46:30that,

00:46:31Say to the believing woman

00:46:31that they should lower their gaze

00:46:33and guard their modesty.

00:46:35And display not the beauty

00:46:37except what appears ordinarily of.

00:46:40And draw their veil

00:46:41over the bosom.

00:46:42And display not the beauty

00:46:43except to their husbands,

00:46:45their fathers,

00:46:46their sons,

00:46:47and a big list of

00:46:49Mehram,

00:46:49the close relatives

00:46:50who she can't marry

00:46:51is given.

00:46:53And the criteria

00:46:54for hijab

00:46:55is mentioned

00:46:56in the Quran

00:46:57and the Sayyid.

00:46:58There are basically

00:46:58six criteria.

00:47:00The first is the extent

00:47:01which differs

00:47:02between the man

00:47:03and the woman.

00:47:04For the man

00:47:05is from the navel

00:47:05to the knee.

00:47:07For the woman,

00:47:08the complete body

00:47:08should be covered

00:47:09except the face

00:47:11and the hands

00:47:12up to the wrist.

00:47:13Some scholars say

00:47:14even the feet

00:47:15below the ankle

00:47:15can be seen.

00:47:17There are some scholars

00:47:17who say

00:47:18that even the face

00:47:19and the hands

00:47:20should be covered.

00:47:22This is extinct.

00:47:24The remaining five criterias

00:47:25is the same

00:47:26for the man

00:47:27and the woman.

00:47:28The second is

00:47:29that the clothes

00:47:30they wear

00:47:30it should not be

00:47:32so tight

00:47:33that it reveals

00:47:34the figure.

00:47:36We have

00:47:36many of our

00:47:37Muslim brothers

00:47:38who wear jeans.

00:47:40They are also

00:47:41stretched jeans.

00:47:43Skin tight

00:47:43stretched jeans.

00:47:46Wearing skin tight

00:47:47stretched jeans

00:47:48aura of the man

00:47:49is from the navel

00:47:50to the knee.

00:47:51He cannot wear

00:47:52any clothes

00:47:52which reveals

00:47:53the figure of that part.

00:47:54You know skin tight

00:47:55where you can see

00:47:55the curves.

00:47:56It's not allowed.

00:47:58The third

00:47:59the clothes

00:48:00they wear

00:48:00it should not

00:48:02be transparent

00:48:03so that you can

00:48:03see through.

00:48:04The Muslim woman

00:48:05may be covering

00:48:05the body

00:48:06they may be

00:48:06wearing loose clothes

00:48:07but it may be

00:48:08transparent

00:48:09you know made of

00:48:09georgia or something

00:48:10like that.

00:48:11That's not allowed.

00:48:12Fourth is

00:48:13it should not

00:48:14be so glamorous

00:48:14that it

00:48:16attracts the

00:48:16opposite sex.

00:48:17Fifth is

00:48:18it should not

00:48:19resemble that

00:48:19of the

00:48:20unbeliever.

00:48:21Any label

00:48:22which is a

00:48:23specific sign

00:48:23of an unbeliever

00:48:25a Muslim

00:48:26cannot wear.

00:48:27For example

00:48:27a Muslim

00:48:29cannot wear a

00:48:29cross.

00:48:30It's a

00:48:30specific sign

00:48:31of Christianity.

00:48:33He cannot

00:48:34wear Om

00:48:34which is a

00:48:35sign of Hinduism.

00:48:36He cannot

00:48:36wear a

00:48:37Varmulon

00:48:37or a

00:48:37Tikka

00:48:38which is a

00:48:39sign of Hindu.

00:48:39He cannot

00:48:42wear any

00:48:43specific

00:48:43signs

00:48:44which is

00:48:44a sign

00:48:45of an

00:48:45unbeliever.

00:48:47And the

00:48:47sixth criteria

00:48:47is

00:48:48you cannot

00:48:49wear clothes

00:48:50that which

00:48:51resemble

00:48:51the opposite

00:48:52sex.

00:48:55If you

00:48:55go to the

00:48:56western

00:48:56countries

00:48:56you have

00:48:57many boys

00:48:58and gents

00:48:59they wear

00:49:00a yearring

00:49:01only one

00:49:02yearring.

00:49:03It has

00:49:03certain

00:49:04significance.

00:49:04If you

00:49:05wear one

00:49:05yearring

00:49:05it has

00:49:06certain

00:49:06significance.

00:49:07and the

00:49:09Indians

00:49:09whatever

00:49:09America

00:49:10does

00:49:10after a

00:49:11few

00:49:11years

00:49:14nowadays

00:49:14men

00:49:15wearing

00:49:15one

00:49:16yearring.

00:49:18Islamic

00:49:19Sharia

00:49:19you cannot

00:49:20wear clothes

00:49:20that which

00:49:21resembles

00:49:21that of

00:49:22the

00:49:23opposite

00:49:23sex.

00:49:24And the

00:49:25reason for

00:49:25hijab for

00:49:26the woman

00:49:26is given

00:49:26in Surah

00:49:27Ahazab

00:49:27chapter 33

00:49:28verse 59

00:49:29where it

00:49:30says that

00:49:30O

00:49:31prophet

00:49:31tell your

00:49:32wives and

00:49:33the believing

00:49:34women that

00:49:35when they

00:49:35go abroad

00:49:36they should

00:49:36put on

00:49:37the cloak

00:49:37so that

00:49:38they shall

00:49:39be recognized

00:49:39and it

00:49:40will prevent

00:49:41them from

00:49:42being molested.

00:49:43The Quran

00:49:44says that

00:49:45been prescribed

00:49:46for the

00:56:09doubts

00:56:09that you're a muslim

00:56:10but certain muslims

00:56:11have a advantage

00:56:12if they have

00:56:14which matches

00:56:14with a non-muslim

00:56:16if they meet a muslim

00:56:17they say the full name

00:56:29manoha naik

00:56:29it can be

00:56:31manoj naik

00:56:31my brother doesn't

00:56:32do that

00:56:33but i'm telling

00:56:34the example

00:56:35so that no one

00:56:36feels hurt

00:56:36no one says

00:56:37that i'm

00:56:38particularly pinpointing

00:56:39because it's very common

00:56:39they write

00:56:40m naik

00:56:41only m naik

00:56:42or

00:56:43ma naik

00:56:45md naik

00:56:46whatever it is

00:56:47you can't identify

00:56:49or non-muslim

00:56:50when they meet muslims

00:56:51they say the full name

00:56:52so

00:56:55using such things

00:56:56intentionally

00:56:57trying to manipulate

01:04:10about more than

01:04:11five years back

01:04:12the first time

01:04:13when I came to Millat Nagar

01:04:13and when I entered

01:04:15and when I read

01:04:16the name on the buildings

01:04:18Al-Makkah

01:04:19Al-Madina

01:04:20Muzdalifah

01:04:22Arafat

01:04:24it touched my heart

01:04:25Alhamdulillah

01:04:27I was so impressed

01:04:29that the full colony

01:04:31I had known that

01:04:32it's one of the biggest

01:04:32colonies of Muslims

01:04:33but when I entered

01:04:34Makkah

01:04:36Madina

01:04:36Muzdalifah

01:04:38Meena

01:04:38Alhamdulillah

01:04:39it impressed me a lot

01:04:41every building

01:04:43the moment you read

01:04:44the name

01:04:44anyone can realize

01:04:46that this is a Muslim building

01:04:47and when the people

01:04:50stay in Millat Nagar

01:04:51when they go out

01:04:52and say that

01:04:53if a person asks

01:04:54where do you stay

01:04:54and if you say

01:04:55I stay in Millat Nagar

01:04:57it's taken for granted

01:04:58you are a Muslim

01:04:59even where you are staying

01:05:01identifies

01:05:02what religion you belong to

01:05:04Alhamdulillah

01:05:04but unfortunately

01:05:07when I came next time

01:05:09I realized

01:05:10that the buildings

01:05:11had the labels

01:05:13but everyone

01:05:15living in the building

01:05:16didn't have the labels

01:05:17so when they go out

01:05:19and when they look at them

01:05:22people may not realize

01:05:24whether the Muslim are not

01:05:25I am not saying

01:05:26all the people of Millat Nagar

01:05:27many I have seen

01:05:29Alhamdulillah

01:05:29who are the label

01:05:30so inshallah

01:05:31when I come next time

01:05:32to Millat Nagar

01:05:33inshallah

01:05:34I would be happy

01:05:36that besides

01:05:37the buildings

01:05:39having the Islamic name

01:05:40even the label

01:05:41is there

01:05:41on each and every individual

01:05:44inshallah

01:05:46I hope

01:05:47that will be the case

01:05:48that next time

01:05:49when I come to Millat Nagar

01:05:50all of them

01:05:52inshallah

01:05:52besides having the label

01:05:54on the building

01:05:55in the place

01:05:56where they are staying

01:05:56they should even have

01:05:57the label on themselves

01:05:58that when they travel out

01:06:00people recognize

01:06:01that he is a Muslim

01:06:02she is a Muslim

01:06:03she is a Muslim woman

01:06:05a Muslim

01:06:09should never ever be afraid

01:06:11to identify himself

01:06:12as a Muslim

01:06:12the only reason

01:06:14that a Muslim

01:06:16may not like

01:06:17to identify himself

01:06:18as a Muslim

01:06:18is

01:06:19if

01:06:20he doesn't agree

01:06:21that Islam

01:06:22is the best way of life

01:06:23he may be a namesake Muslim

01:06:26may be born

01:06:27in a Muslim family

01:06:28given a Muslim name

01:06:29otherwise

01:06:30a Muslim

01:06:31will never feel afraid

01:06:33to wear his label

01:06:34he may feel afraid

01:06:35if he doesn't know

01:06:36the answers

01:06:37because if you wear the label

01:06:39you are proclaiming

01:06:40that I am a person

01:06:42following the religion

01:06:43of haq

01:06:44the religion of truth

01:06:45and

01:06:47whenever there is

01:06:48a competition

01:06:49between truth

01:06:50and falsehood

01:06:51truth always prevails

01:06:53truth always wins

01:06:54people sometimes are afraid

01:06:56that if people

01:06:57come to know a Muslim

01:06:57I may lose my customers

01:06:58I have non-Muslim customers

01:07:00I may lose them

01:07:00he is afraid

01:07:02but if he knows

01:07:04Islam

01:07:04if he identify himself

01:07:06as a Muslim

01:07:07that he is a person

01:07:08following truth

01:07:09he will inshallah

01:07:10benefit even in his business

01:07:12because

01:07:12the Quran clearly states

01:07:14and I would like to end my talk

01:07:16with the quotation of the Quran

01:07:17from Surah Isra

01:07:18chapter number 17

01:07:19verse number 81

01:07:20which says

01:07:20when truth is heard

01:07:26against falsehood

01:07:27falsehood perishes

01:07:28for falsehood

01:07:29is by its nature

01:07:30bound to perish
