‘To escape the tight darkness into light..’
‘To be reborn again.. and the past is forgiven..’
‘The moment of feeling with Allah..’
‘putting guidance inside your heart..’
‘This can’t be perceived by any description.. by any feeling..’
‘O Allah,’
‘I called upon you.. and I strived..’
‘I asked for your guidance.. and you have guided me..’
‘With Qur’an I was able to step up..’
‘O Allah..’
‘O Allah..’
Your name is that of a prophet!
This means that you were raised in a practicing Christian family
Were your family holding on to the Christ’s teachings..
at your childhood?
Before filming.. you told us that..
the Bible and reading the Bible was the cause of you reaching Islam!!
this is strange.. Subhan Allah!
explain this to us.. how??
The story of this person.. of his acceptance of Islam.. is amazing..
The man who was the cause of him being Muslim..
he was an ordinary person.. he wasn’t a Dai’a to Allah. Almighty..
actually, he was doing a lot of sins..
But his intention was..
this man would be guided..
and Allah, Almighty guided him..
Amazingly strange, after Yusha entered Islam..
so many people accepted Islam by his assistance
Hearing this story reminds me with the story of..
the Hoopoe bird with the prophet Sulaiman, may Allah put peace upon him..
It saw the evil doings..
it saw people associate with Allah, Almighty..
it denied that evil doings..
and Allah, Almighty has rewarded it..
He eternized his memory
The Hoopoe..
it invited to Allah, Almighty by denying that evil doings..
and all the people of Sheba entered Islam!
“I found her and her people prostrating to the sun instead of Allah”
“and Satan has made their deeds pleasing to them and averted them from [His] way,”
” so they are not guided,”
The point is..
Don’t be tight.. say the word..
with the intention to invite to Allah, Almighty..
maybe this word..
with the good intention..
would take people out of darkness to the light of Allah, Almighty..
‘Have you felt that its sky is cloudy?’
‘When you recite the noble verses..’
‘it is a sky.. and it is a cure.. it is guidance.’
‘Why can’t you grasp the bounty!!’
‘I called upon you.. and I strived..’
‘I asked for your guidance.. and you have guided me..’
‘With Qur’an I was able to step up..’
‘O Allah..’
Sheikh, at that time, for you, how was the Qur’an ?
The most important moment in your life..
and for sure..
is when you said Shahada..
Sheikh, how did it feel like?
Sheikh Yusha is very active in Dawah..
he is focusing on media..
he participated on establishment of many TV channels here in America..
Why you are concentrating on media mainly?
The way our brother Yusha talks about the grace .. his feeling of the favor..
on himself.. on other Muslims or non-Muslims..
has reminded me with a verse at Surat An-Nahl..
Allah, Almighty said:
“And whatever you have of favor – it is from Allah .”
Allah, Almighty tells us that all the bounties that we have are from Allah, Almighty..
Then He said: “Then when adversity touches you, to Him you cry for help.”
Subhan Allah, we only appreciate the favors of Allah, Almighty after we lose them
So, if our health is challenged..
we would pray to Allah, day and night..
‘O Allah bring back our health.. our strength..’
When you lose your parents..
you call Allah, Almighty wishing that they are with you..
so as to do them good..
why do we do like that?
We need to call upon Allah all the time.. when it is good and when it is hard
There is a great verse at Surat yunus..
it explains this.. Allah, Almighty says:
“And when affliction touches man,”
“he calls upon Us, whether lying on his side or sitting or standing;”
“but when We remove from him his affliction,”
“he continues [in disobedience] as if he had never called upon Us to [remove] an affliction that touched him. ”
“Thus is made pleasing to the transgressors that which they have been doing”
