So today we start off with a bit of sad news as two South African uh athletes have passed away suddenly yesterday. We
1:34
1 minute, 34 seconds
had Bafana Bafana and Maloi Sundown soccer star Jaden Adams passed away at the age of 25. He recently represented
1:41
1 minute, 41 seconds

1:48

1:58
1 minute, 58 seconds
May Allah subhanana wa ta'ala make it easy for the families and friends of both athletes during this difficult time.
2:05
2 minutes, 5 seconds
Um, staying on sports, the GR Legends rally took place this weekend with the final stages ending yesterday. The
2:12
2 minutes, 12 seconds
Toyota Gazoo team of Mark Jones and KZ Naidu unfortunately did not finish as their Toyota GRAIS failed in the last
2:20
2 minutes, 20 seconds
stage. Speaking to Mark Jones after the race, he was disappointed as they were in third place and ended up with no
2:27
2 minutes, 27 seconds
points at the end. But the whole experience was a learning curve for him.
2:32
2 minutes, 32 seconds
I think if we have time uh after the break I'd like to touch on the subject of learning curves um as well as
2:40
2 minutes, 40 seconds
inshallah inshallah I mean because I believe that um very recent activities should you
2:48
2 minutes, 48 seconds
know obviously everything in our life you know we need to touch on that we need to learn more about that but also mostly recent activities so inshallah I
2:57
2 minutes, 57 seconds
hope that you do have time later on for us to talk about that inshallah but if we don't then uh just keep on listening next week and we'll we'll talk about it inshallah.
3:07
3 minutes, 7 seconds
Um so we were fortunate enough to be hosted by Toyota for the day driving to the venue in the new Toyota Baky. Alhamdulillah.
3:14
3 minutes, 14 seconds
It's not a baky, it's a Hilux.
3:17
3 minutes, 17 seconds
Yes. But I think for me one of the highlights was um besides that three pattied burger from Mommy's Big Bite was
3:25
3 minutes, 25 seconds
how the locals in Bronos rallied around the I was also amazed by that. It was
3:31
3 minutes, 31 seconds
absolutely um inspiring to see like a whole lot of supporters coming through and um
3:40
3 minutes, 40 seconds
just being there and and yeah basically giving their support but I think there's the farms also was it the farms also
3:48
3 minutes, 48 seconds
support besides just the locals coming out and supporting the local farmers allowed the race to take place. So they they allowed
3:57
3 minutes, 57 seconds
the South African rally raid team to use their farms for the racing which I thought was like so honorable of them
4:05
4 minutes, 5 seconds
you know and and it's like you say it's inspiration to see communities getting together and working together for the
4:12
4 minutes, 12 seconds
development of that area which was Bronos plate but also I suppose as a nation as a whole you know as they say we're stronger together and with that
4:21
4 minutes, 21 seconds
South Africa that's definitely true. Um I actually I wish that all communities could actually be this you know that supportive
4:29
4 minutes, 29 seconds
inshallah. I mean I hope that we can come to a a um what what is it like a an understanding that we all can be that
4:37
4 minutes, 37 seconds
that way towards our communities and each other in general.
4:42
4 minutes, 42 seconds
You know that's something actually that we need to learn. Yes we do.
4:47
4 minutes, 47 seconds
M and talking about stronger together um South African men's rugby team the spring box also won their match yesterday um against Scotland.
4:57
4 minutes, 57 seconds
Um so in other news this Friday the 10th of July I don't know if you saw that message that was going around um during
5:04
5 minutes, 4 seconds
Juma prayers a group of protesters attempted to storm a mosque in Peter Marittsburg to remove alleged illegal immigrants themselves.
5:14
5 minutes, 14 seconds
No, I didn't see that. But we did mention um I think was was it last week that you know just let us know if that's happened. So So unfortunately that did happen.
5:23
5 minutes, 23 seconds
Yeah. In in Peter Mattisburg apparently there was a masid that was targeted. Um but obviously you know we know that
5:30
5 minutes, 30 seconds
there are laws in place right we know that we have rights.
5:35
5 minutes, 35 seconds
Mhm. Um and these are local citizens, a group of protesters that were that that
5:42
5 minutes, 42 seconds
came into the masid. So we must remember that in terms of the immigration act, only the South African Police Services
5:50
5 minutes, 50 seconds
and the Department of Home Affairs have authority to verify immigration status.
5:55
5 minutes, 55 seconds
Okay. But what do you do in that case now? They're not um a police authority. So do you just tell them to go away?
6:02
6 minutes, 2 seconds
So you'll have to call the police to get involved. Okay. Okay.
6:06
6 minutes, 6 seconds
Um but obviously remain calm. Don't um you know uh become aggressive towards them.
6:14
6 minutes, 14 seconds
Uh you know if if it's possible try and get the Malis um you know into a safe place in the masid, lock the gates to
6:23
6 minutes, 23 seconds
the masid. Um you know just just so that you can so that everyone is safe.
6:29
6 minutes, 29 seconds
And it's sad that it has to come to that.
6:32
6 minutes, 32 seconds
But the most important thing is know your rights.
6:35
6 minutes, 35 seconds
So know your rights, but don't be aggressive about it. You know, if if if it's not police and say, you know what, um we need to get the authorities
6:44
6 minutes, 44 seconds
involved. You can't take the law into your own hands.
6:47
6 minutes, 47 seconds
Yeah. And they say that section 15 of the constitution is a freedom of of religion. Um so disrupting Juma or any
6:55
6 minutes, 55 seconds
uh other prayer violates that constitutional right.
6:58
6 minutes, 58 seconds
That is correct. Right. And unlawful entry, intimidation, trespassing, all those are um criminal basically.
7:08
7 minutes, 8 seconds
Um so there was no legal reason for them to be there and they don't have authority to be there in the first
7:14
7 minutes, 14 seconds
place. If they're not coming there to make salah, to play, then they shouldn't be there. So they say that um there are
7:23
7 minutes, 23 seconds
you know people um attorneys at the the Peter Mattisburg courts that can assist
7:30
7 minutes, 30 seconds
as well. Um and obviously don't follow any like mob action, you know.
7:35
7 minutes, 35 seconds
No, that that's also important. Don't follow any mob action as in don't do what uh do what you think other people
7:43
7 minutes, 43 seconds
should do and come together and and do your make your own um what is the word I'm looking for? like make your own law as well. You know they these people
7:52
7 minutes, 52 seconds
didn't do the right thing by you know undermining the law but you also don't undermine the law.
7:58
7 minutes, 58 seconds
But I think also um because this has now happened we must also make government aware because there needs to be um
8:06
8 minutes, 6 seconds
stricter regulations in terms of this type of thing because we don't want it to happen.
8:10
8 minutes, 10 seconds
Exactly. Because like you said freedom of religion and they cannot come into a religious religious place. Yeah.
8:18
8 minutes, 18 seconds
Okay.
8:19
8 minutes, 19 seconds
Okay. So, um we don't have any public holidays in July.
8:24
8 minutes, 24 seconds
Um it is the last week of the school holidays.
8:27
8 minutes, 27 seconds
Okay. Oh, it is the last week of the school.
8:29
8 minutes, 29 seconds
Well, schools go back on not this week, this coming week, but the following week, Tuesday.
8:35
8 minutes, 35 seconds
So, they have next weekend. So, this entire weekend.
8:40
8 minutes, 40 seconds
So, yeah. So, this next weekend will be the last weekend. Okay. Enjoy your holidays.
8:46
8 minutes, 46 seconds
Um but after the break we're going to discuss how um you can make this last week beneficial in
8:54
8 minutes, 54 seconds
uh but like I was saying we don't have a public holiday as such in July but we do have a day in South Africa which we commemorate and that is the 18th of July
9:03
9 minutes, 3 seconds
which we know as Mandela day and when most of us try and do something for 67 minutes
9:10
9 minutes, 10 seconds
is it not 67 Okay. So, you can see which generation he is. But whichever way you say it, if
9:20
9 minutes, 20 seconds
it's 67 um or 67 minutes um in com in commemoration of Mandela Day um
9:29
9 minutes, 29 seconds
Nia or Issa, you have something that that you want to to say about it.
9:33
9 minutes, 33 seconds
Yes. He wants to talk about the 67 minutes, not the six or seven minutes.
9:38
9 minutes, 38 seconds
Okay. Are you going to talk for 67 minutes?
9:40
9 minutes, 40 seconds
That would be a really long time. Is that is that what we're going to do for for Mandela day? We're going to talk for 67 minutes today.
9:47
9 minutes, 47 seconds
No, I don't think we can do a long 60.
9:51
9 minutes, 51 seconds
No, definitely not. And we can't signaling us and saying no, it's not possible today.
9:58
9 minutes, 58 seconds
Okay, tell us about it. Okay. So, Mandela Day's 67 minutes call to action
10:05
10 minutes, 5 seconds
asks individual worldwide to indicate 60 minutes 67
10:12
10 minutes, 12 seconds
minutes of their time, one minute for every year that Nelson
10:18
10 minutes, 18 seconds
Mandela fought for social justice and public service.
10:25
10 minutes, 25 seconds
celebrated annually on the 18th of July.
10:29
10 minutes, 29 seconds
It encourages simple community focused acts of kindness to help those in need.
10:37
10 minutes, 37 seconds
Here are a few ways you can make a meaningful impact.
10:42
10 minutes, 42 seconds
Okay, so um I've got something. Um tears are calling on all Cape Townians on on
10:49
10 minutes, 49 seconds
basically on Cape Town to give 67 minutes this Mandela Day. Um they've had a rough few months there in Cape Town
10:56
10 minutes, 56 seconds
with storms and flooding and now uh Cheers Animal Rescue are welcoming volunteers back on their premises for
11:03
11 minutes, 3 seconds
Mandela Day. They're asking you to give 67 minutes of your time, you know, in honor of the 67 years that Nelson
11:12
11 minutes, 12 seconds
Mandela gave for fighting for social justice um to make a difference. So the recent weather challenges left some
11:20
11 minutes, 20 seconds
damage around the animal shelter and they've chosen three projects to offer which will help repair that damage and get the shelter back on track.
11:30
11 minutes, 30 seconds
Inshallah for animals who don't have a voice of their own. Okay. So there's the painting, the gardening and the cleaning
11:37
11 minutes, 37 seconds
projects. And um you know with painting you can brighten up spaces with a fresh coat of paint by the kennels and the
11:44
11 minutes, 44 seconds
catery or you can replant trees or pet friendly flowers. Um you know in terms
11:50
11 minutes, 50 seconds
of gardening or do a lesser glamorous task but one that is much more needed and more rewarded by doing a storm
12:00
12 minutes
cleanup, a deep cleaning of the puppy areas or general kennel maintenance.
12:06
12 minutes, 6 seconds
And um and I think that doesn't only just apply to tears. Obviously they have their own initiative but there are so many other
12:13
12 minutes, 13 seconds
organizations that need similar assistance.
12:17
12 minutes, 17 seconds
Exactly. They do. Those are general things actually. Painting, gardening, and cleaning. Those are general things that need um most organizations do need
12:25
12 minutes, 25 seconds
help with especially if they have a premises. especially nonprofit organizations because they're so busy doing the work that they do that they
12:34
12 minutes, 34 seconds
don't have time or the volunteers to assist with those things.
12:39
12 minutes, 39 seconds
Yes. To keep out to upkeep with the maintenance and all of that. And like they said, you know, the painting so to to give it a fresh coat of paint so that
12:47
12 minutes, 47 seconds
it looks a bit better or you know planting to to look a bit better. Then obviously uh cleaning needs to be done. Everyone needs help with
12:55
12 minutes, 55 seconds
cleaning actually. I think that's a topic for another day.
13:00
13 minutes
But um yeah, so if you want to know more about you know registering um you can visit our website registering so that
13:08
13 minutes, 8 seconds
animal rescue can get all their supplies needed for their volunteers on this day.
13:12
13 minutes, 12 seconds
You can check our website ilivza.com specifically this um article but there is more other things you know to be
13:19
13 minutes, 19 seconds
involved with in Shelva. And then um another thing that I found that you can do on Mandela Day is to knit, crochet or
13:27
13 minutes, 27 seconds
donate wool at Hide Park Corner here in Koeng. Um it's from the 18th of July
13:35
13 minutes, 35 seconds
until the 30th of July and it's part of a campaign that began about a decade ago. So basically what prompted this was
13:43
13 minutes, 43 seconds
a group of volunteers known as the knitwits of 67 blankets. knit as in K n I T, you know, like knitting.
13:52
13 minutes, 52 seconds
So what they would do is they would leave a hand knitted or crocheted scarf in a public place for someone in need
14:01
14 minutes, 1 second
and then it grew into like a nationwide movement, you know, of kindness. And then uh it's been left in like um parks,
14:10
14 minutes, 10 seconds
on fences, around trees, in public spaces all around South Africa. And there's even some that's been handed on
14:18
14 minutes, 18 seconds
um you know that Johannesburg city sightseeing red bus. Yes.
14:23
14 minutes, 23 seconds
And they all they all each of them all those scarves carry a handwritten message of care and a tag that says this
14:30
14 minutes, 30 seconds
is what the tag says right. I am not lost. If you are cold and need me please take me. Alhamdulillah.
14:37
14 minutes, 37 seconds
Alhamdulillah. Yeah. So now to mark mark the anniversary which is a 10 year anniversary the center court in Hyde Park Corner Shopping Center in
14:45
14 minutes, 45 seconds
Johannesburg will host what's believed to be the world's largest handmade scarf chandelier that will hang above the installation.
14:55
14 minutes, 55 seconds
Alhamdulillah.
14:56
14 minutes, 56 seconds
That's interesting. So those who actually you know know how to knit crochet and um
15:03
15 minutes, 3 seconds
uh what you call it was it or or or if you have your own you can um donate you know your wool and scarf and then just
15:12
15 minutes, 12 seconds
you know say this is it but I think they they um you know like you said it's a group of people that
15:19
15 minutes, 19 seconds
actually knit these scarves. No, but you can also go there and you can donate your scarves or you can also go and
15:27
15 minutes, 27 seconds
knit. You can volunteer to knit from the 18th to the um what you call it 30th of July. Okay. Yeah.
15:35
15 minutes, 35 seconds
And then um I think we were fortunate a few years back and for many for a few years off it we were fortunate enough to
15:43
15 minutes, 43 seconds
attend the rise against hunger campaigns which were on was it on on Mandela day on Mandela day and then um they were
15:51
15 minutes, 51 seconds
packing hampers which um I think was this uh tastic was also involved.
15:58
15 minutes, 58 seconds
Yes. Um so they so oh we would uh packtastic rice but not just rice we would there's a whole food hamburger yeah
16:06
16 minutes, 6 seconds
which um full aid is also doing this year on the 16th of July at DP World Wanderer Stadium. So you can go onto
16:14
16 minutes, 14 seconds
their social media or their website and you can register to volunteer because they're looking for volunteers to pack I think 5,000 hampers.
16:23
16 minutes, 23 seconds
Sure. So anyone can go there and you don't need to register beforehand?
16:26
16 minutes, 26 seconds
No, you have to register. So, you need to go on social media or obviously their website to register to be a volunteer. Um, and like I said,
16:35
16 minutes, 35 seconds
I think they're packing over 5,000 ampers and that's at DP World Wanderer Stadium on the 16th of July. I think it starts at 9:00. That's um Thursday.
16:43
16 minutes, 43 seconds
Thursday. Yeah. So, it's still within the school holidays.
16:46
16 minutes, 46 seconds
Oh, okay. So, there's something for people to do. Yeah.
16:51
16 minutes, 51 seconds
Yes. So uh yeah it doesn't have to be I mean only on one day and it only it doesn't have to be only for that 67 minutes.
17:00
17 minutes
Yeah the thing is um you know we always focus on you know like you say people need sometimes need a reminder. So we
17:07
17 minutes, 7 seconds
need this reminder now um for the 67 minutes that hey we need to do something good for humanity. Um, like if you're not if you're not usually
17:16
17 minutes, 16 seconds
doing something good for humanity for a long time, maybe take some time this week.
17:23
17 minutes, 23 seconds
No, but I mean some people get very busy with what they are doing.
17:26
17 minutes, 26 seconds
No, that's what I said. If you haven't done it, it's not that they don't want to do it.
17:30
17 minutes, 30 seconds
Um, but you know, like it's almost like this this day has been dedicated to that. So even if you sometimes work at a
17:38
17 minutes, 38 seconds
corporate, the corporates get involved with something as well. Um but you know we always just like I said focus on um
17:47
17 minutes, 47 seconds
you know like specific days or just Ramadan or something and and it's incumbent on us as Muslims to you know
17:54
17 minutes, 54 seconds
continuously do this. You know, they say that um you know, you go to the masid on on on a Friday for Juma and it's good to
18:02
18 minutes, 2 seconds
to give some saddaka or I was actually going to say I remember um Issa used to go to a preschool and
18:09
18 minutes, 9 seconds
every Friday they used to make them give um saddaka to put in a small tin, you know, some money. They used to make them
18:17
18 minutes, 17 seconds
give some money or coins or something to put in a small tin on a Friday to encourage them to give charity. But it doesn't need to only be on a Friday.
18:27
18 minutes, 27 seconds
Yeah. But I think it also teaches them that you know you should take some time.
18:32
18 minutes, 32 seconds
It's continuous. And if you build that habit of at least once a week um then it might you know
18:40
18 minutes, 40 seconds
give yourself that time once a week to do it then at least then it it grows from there.
18:46
18 minutes, 46 seconds
But it doesn't mean inshallah I mean it doesn't mean that you only have to do it then. I mean if you are going for um
18:52
18 minutes, 52 seconds
like th on a Monday you can also you know drop in the leela box or something like that.
18:59
18 minutes, 59 seconds
Yeah I mean you don't there's no specific time um and the boxes are always there in the mash. It's not only on a Friday. Um but
19:06

21 minutes, 42 seconds
Many local nonprofits coordinate sandwich making or not or food
21:49
21 minutes, 49 seconds
packing events for underprivileged schools and shelters. Alhamdulillah.
21:56
21 minutes, 56 seconds
Alhamdulillah. Um yes. So that is like you know what we mentioned but also on a broader level. So obviously not just for a certain shopping center here in
22:05
22 minutes, 5 seconds
Johannesburg to you know make a um a knit or crochet blanket or a certain place in Cape Town. I actually remember
22:13
22 minutes, 13 seconds
um quite a few years ago um I think people we knew used to make like peanut butter sandwiches and just hand it out
22:22
22 minutes, 22 seconds
um Oh is it? Yeah. Where was it? In joke book. Oh okay. people we knew.
22:29
22 minutes, 29 seconds
Oh, I don't know if I should mention their names, but I can remember they I I can really remember because they used to buy a whole lot of um bread and um peanut butter
22:38
22 minutes, 38 seconds
and they used to stay up all night and they used to um make these sandwiches and then in the the next day they used to actually um hand it out. I don't know
22:46
22 minutes, 46 seconds
where. I didn't ask. I just know that they used to make those sandwiches cuz I heard him say something about sandwiches and I remember that. I'm actually just
22:54
22 minutes, 54 seconds
thinking now there's a lot of people with allergies. So I wonder what would happen then you know like do you notify them this is peanut butter and then
23:02
23 minutes, 2 seconds
they'll say oh I have a peanut allergy and then you can't eat it. I'm just thinking but I think it's it's also the the thought that counts and like we said you
23:11
23 minutes, 11 seconds
know um just with those things that Issa mentioned uh just to make a meaningful impact you know you start somewhere it
23:20
23 minutes, 20 seconds
needs to start somewhere and once you you you start doing something um it becomes a habit after a while if
23:27
23 minutes, 27 seconds
you're continuously doing it true um so even if people you know like we said only do stuff in Ramadan or you only do it for 67 minutes once a year.
23:37
23 minutes, 37 seconds
Um it's a start. Yeah.
23:39
23 minutes, 39 seconds
Because uh some people um you know feel good afterwards and they want to do more.
23:45
23 minutes, 45 seconds
Yeah. Maybe that actually like encourages them to go inspires them to do more. So So then they feel okay you know what next week I also want to do this.
23:54
23 minutes, 54 seconds
Yeah. And that and that's how uh organizations are created.
23:58
23 minutes, 58 seconds
Definitely. you know, um you you start volunteering somewhere and then you start your own organization because you see that there are certain things like
24:06
24 minutes, 6 seconds
you say like with tears with animal shelter or like Usherful Aid the you know um disaster relief or gift of the
24:14
24 minutes, 14 seconds
givers you know there's so many organizations that were born out of people just doing something by themselves it could be
24:22
24 minutes, 22 seconds
maybe just once also so yeah that's true that is true so there's something for you to do also in
24:29
24 minutes, 29 seconds
the holidays. But um earlier I mentioned uh Cape Town and I just remembered that there's actually some event listings um
24:36
24 minutes, 36 seconds
for children to to do this holiday, this July holiday, namely uh in Cape Town, namely an interactive soccer challenge
24:45
24 minutes, 45 seconds
this weekend at Capegate Shopping Center. There's um other things to do as well, you know, during the week and
24:52
24 minutes, 52 seconds
they're listed on our website as well as, you know, other places, not just Cape Town.
24:58
24 minutes, 58 seconds
But they are listed on our website if you want to go check out. There's also um that Mall of Africa um activation,
25:05
25 minutes, 5 seconds
the gold zone that we went to. So that's in Khao for the children. And am I correct in saying that today is the last day for that activation?
25:14
25 minutes, 14 seconds
I think it ends tomorrow.
25:15
25 minutes, 15 seconds
Tomorrow the 13th. Oh, okay. No, I thought it was today. And um okay, so this was something I had to actually I
25:24
25 minutes, 24 seconds
saw people getting very excited about and um I actually had to research it cuz I've never experienced it myself. So,
25:31
25 minutes, 31 seconds
you know how the um most part of Kiden is like just the sunniest place even in
25:38
25 minutes, 38 seconds
winter, you know, it's warmer there and they probably only have what 2 weeks in July when it becomes really cold. Yeah.
25:46
25 minutes, 46 seconds
You know, is that still the case? I think so.
25:51
25 minutes, 51 seconds
So, well, I mean, people who are there feel cold, but we know that that's not cold.
25:58
25 minutes, 58 seconds
We know what's cold now. shame. But yes, because of those um the the sunny nature on the east coast, you know, many tend
26:06
26 minutes, 6 seconds
to flock there during um uh this time of the year and then including those um
26:14
26 minutes, 14 seconds
from the the what you call it the sea world, you know, the ocean world. So yes, there's there's absolute excitement
26:21
26 minutes, 21 seconds
about the sardine run that tends to happen around this time of the year. Um, and I must admit, like I said, I I was
26:30
26 minutes, 30 seconds
born in Durban and schools and university in Durban, but I've never really experienced the sardine run myself. I've never been there. I've
26:39
26 minutes, 39 seconds
never Yeah. I never had sardines.
26:44
26 minutes, 44 seconds
But for for me, I I suppose it was mostly because I was hardly in Durban, you know, um during all the school holidays, but including this time of the year.
26:54
26 minutes, 54 seconds
So yeah, I saw lots of faith Facebook um groups uh dedicated to uh spotting this
27:02
27 minutes, 2 seconds
sardine run and so on and there's quite a lot of action on social media this time and in in the newspaper when I was reading I read the newspaper as well. So
27:11
27 minutes, 11 seconds
just a bit of of a background right the 2026 sardine run started around the 13th or the 14th of June when massive shs
27:19
27 minutes, 19 seconds
were spotted in Port Edward. Then they moved north through to Port Shepson and
27:26
27 minutes, 26 seconds
Lum Cel um reaching the Scottbur ami stretch by mid to late June and
27:34
27 minutes, 34 seconds
apparently they're still around that area now. And the activity of these sardines they generally follow a cooler
27:41
27 minutes, 41 seconds
temperature and then there was a bit of a delay this year with their migration.
27:47
27 minutes, 47 seconds
Um I think it had to do something with the temperatures and it coincided with the politics of the country. So uh there
27:56
27 minutes, 56 seconds
was you know as South Africans we always bring humor into something. So there was a bit of humor regarding them this year.
28:02
28 minutes, 2 seconds
They said um there were memes that said that the sardines need to have their papers documented before coming in.
28:11
28 minutes, 11 seconds
But yeah, if you're interested, apparently the Scottbur to Amum Toti stretch is a good area to watch for um
28:19
28 minutes, 19 seconds
sardine activity, but there's a lot of other activities as well, which includes
28:25
28 minutes, 25 seconds
um sharks and dolphins and Cape ganets, which are actually seabirds that can deep dive into the ocean. And then
28:34
28 minutes, 34 seconds
there's turns, which ts, which is also seabirds. And you can check out Ubongo and St.
28:42
28 minutes, 42 seconds
Michaels on Sea or Shelly Beach to check out the Sardine netting and beach activity.
28:49
28 minutes, 49 seconds
Okay, inshallah. So, we got a message from a brother here that said, "Forget about Mandela. He's dead. Commemorate
28:57
28 minutes, 57 seconds
Islamic Sahaba Amy Alisam." Asalamu alalaykum. Instead of taking 67 minutes for Mandela, instead give 60 minutes 67
29:06
29 minutes, 6 seconds
minutes to the teachings of Islam which will be beneficial than Mandela.
29:10
29 minutes, 10 seconds
Alhamdulillah. That is definitely good advice.
29:13
29 minutes, 13 seconds
No, definitely. Um and that's exactly what what we want to talk about. You know, there's lots of things happening especially this holiday to keep you
29:22
29 minutes, 22 seconds
busy, but we want to focus on gaining and increasing knowledge, right? It mustn't be like um a second
29:31
29 minutes, 31 seconds
school or winter school or something or you mustn't feel like you um ah I'm not having a holiday.
29:36
29 minutes, 36 seconds
Yeah. But we know um that there are many hadith on seeking knowledge. There's duas for increasing knowledge. And I
29:45
29 minutes, 45 seconds
think the most important lesson is when our beloved prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam was told ikra as the first word of the revelation of the
29:53
29 minutes, 53 seconds
Quran. and ikra which means to read or recite which was very difficult for nabi sallu alaihi wasallam because he was not
30:02
30 minutes, 2 seconds
taught how to do it before and um we have the opportunities now to go to school some of the best schools
30:10
30 minutes, 10 seconds
and universities in the world and sometimes um you know we have stuff right at on our fingertips you know
30:18
30 minutes, 18 seconds
screens on our phones or laptops um because there's a lot of online classes um or courses that are available. And I
30:27
30 minutes, 27 seconds
just wanted to touch on a few things um because the school holidays is actually I think a golden opportunity for kids to
30:35
30 minutes, 35 seconds
grow not just academically or socially but spiritually too. And I think this brother that that said you know
30:42
30 minutes, 42 seconds
teachings of Islam um is is very prevalent because um in Islam we we told to seek
30:49
30 minutes, 49 seconds
knowledge, right? Um it's an act of of worship and using your free time to do
30:56
30 minutes, 56 seconds
this is beneficial. Um and you get blessings for it as well for utilizing it in the correct way. I mean we can
31:04
31 minutes, 4 seconds
watch soccer for 90 minutes you know um but we can't sit and learn something
31:12
31 minutes, 12 seconds
from the Quran you know like go back and and actually you know connect with the Quran. And I think that's that's what's important is that
31:20
31 minutes, 20 seconds
yes there's lots of like you said different activations at different malls and you know there's stuff happening but
31:27
31 minutes, 27 seconds
we want to use our time correctly and we want to make sure that whatever we doing is for the pleasure of Allah
31:34
31 minutes, 34 seconds
you know is it necessary yes you know as kids you um you want to grow up and there are certain activities that you want to do so
31:43
31 minutes, 43 seconds
we want to just do nothing and be bored and have fun It's not to say that you can't do that, but there must be we we
31:52
31 minutes, 52 seconds
take time out of the day to make five times salah. At least five five salas, right? At least at least five salas.
32:01
32 minutes, 1 second
And also we make sure to remember to read each of our duas as we're doing something. As the minute we wake up,
32:08
32 minutes, 8 seconds
we're reading a dua. So we're taking time to always remember Allah. So, so in the same way if you have like 3 weeks
32:16
32 minutes, 16 seconds
holiday you can take time you like you go to school every day so you're taking time out of your day to go to school to learn so in the same way
32:25
32 minutes, 25 seconds
I'm not saying you need to spend your whole holiday um you know but like you said take time so take time each day it doesn't actually and that's
32:33
32 minutes, 33 seconds
the beauty of Islam it doesn't have to be only for one day exactly because if while we're busy we wake up
32:41
32 minutes, 41 seconds
in the morning we read then while we busy and then we take time we're actually taking time out and we're reading then we go back to being busy
32:49
32 minutes, 49 seconds
and then we taking time out we read so at the same time besides reading your salah take time out and learn something
32:57
32 minutes, 57 seconds
about our our dean and it doesn't have to be like we said commemorating somebody or for 67 minutes
33:05
33 minutes, 5 seconds
it can be for for us personally and again for the pleasure of Allah subhanana wa ta'ala so the first thing is connecting with the Quran beyond just
33:14
33 minutes, 14 seconds
recitation. So the one surah deep dive instead of just reciting quickly pick one short surah um obviously from juice
33:24
33 minutes, 24 seconds
and spend the week learning its translation the story behind why it was revealed lessons it teaches you would take like
33:31
33 minutes, 31 seconds
say surahlas then you um what did you say memorize it learn to memorize it which most of us do know it
33:40
33 minutes, 40 seconds
besides just reciting and memorizing like actually learning the translation Yes.
33:45
33 minutes, 45 seconds
Right. And the story behind why that surah was revealed. Okay.
33:51
33 minutes, 51 seconds
Um and the practical lessons it teaches because each surah you know like you always mention surah kaf and the different lessons that we taught from
33:59
33 minutes, 59 seconds
that. So each surah has a lesson which is and a history behind it and a history behind it like like we
34:07
34 minutes, 7 seconds
just mentioned the first word that prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wasallam was told with the revelation wasra. So there already is a lesson to
34:14
34 minutes, 14 seconds
say that we need to read more, recite more.
34:19
34 minutes, 19 seconds
Um, and then there's vocabulary journaling. So keep a dedicated holiday notebook. Every day find three high frequency Arabic words from the Quran.
34:29
34 minutes, 29 seconds
Um, write down their meanings and try to spot them during daily recitation.
34:34
34 minutes, 34 seconds
I like this because this will actually help you to understand what you're reading. So because you know you know
34:41
34 minutes, 41 seconds
like like means light you know so every time you come across that word you know they saying something about is mercy
34:50
34 minutes, 50 seconds
and then it becomes easier for you to translate what you are reading.
34:54
34 minutes, 54 seconds
Exactly. So instead of you know trying to read the English translation you begin to understand what you are reading
35:03
35 minutes, 3 seconds
and um and then obviously you can also you know like I know people say uh uh Issa is mentioned so many times in the
35:11
35 minutes, 11 seconds
the Quran you know like so you start tracking you know like you know for those that that do these type of activities and it keeps your brain active as well. Yeah.
35:21
35 minutes, 21 seconds
And then in terms of audio and correct pronuniation, so your tajid, use the extra time to listen to a renowned and
35:29
35 minutes, 29 seconds
refine pronunciation. Recording themselves and playing it back is an excellent way for kids to selfcorrect and build confidence.
35:37
35 minutes, 37 seconds
You say you you know this because we do this every day with you. you make you listen to um Sudace or whoever it is and
35:47
35 minutes, 47 seconds
then you you read it back. So you know that that's the correct way to read.
35:53
35 minutes, 53 seconds
It it doesn't mean that you know that's he has to read in that way though but he just needs to make sure that he reads the that with that read.
36:03
36 minutes, 3 seconds
Yes. Because so for anyone you know make sure you read with that you read. No, but I mean like there's not only one recording.
36:10
36 minutes, 10 seconds
There's a lot of uh Quran apps now.
36:13
36 minutes, 13 seconds
There's those Quran cubes and everything, you know, where you have different reciters so you can you can hear the difference in the way they um recite the Quran.
36:24
36 minutes, 24 seconds
Yeah. But obviously with them making sure that they read with that. Yeah.
36:29
36 minutes, 29 seconds
And then um exploring Islamic history and hero story. So the prophet series move chronologically through the stories
36:36
36 minutes, 36 seconds
of the prophets focus on the character traits they displayed um such as uh prophet ununice patience, prophet
36:43
36 minutes, 43 seconds
Ibraim's courage or prophet ysef's uh integrity.
36:47
36 minutes, 47 seconds
So you say in chronological order so I would assume start with prophet Adam and then you know move on to
36:55
36 minutes, 55 seconds
Yeah. And then you know then you build I think also once you start doing that you build these images and almost like
37:03
37 minutes, 3 seconds
videos in your head and you know you you create your own series. That's very that that's actually
37:12
37 minutes, 12 seconds
very interesting because um you know most of us and the youth as well you know they they're more concerned about
37:21
37 minutes, 21 seconds
you know role models this time but we've had we've always had you know the best of role models and learn from them so
37:29
37 minutes, 29 seconds
learn their stories and it's funny that you say that because that was the next point is um the companions at the harour as role
37:38
37 minutes, 38 seconds
models. Oh yes. So kids love adventure stories. Introduce them to the lives of the young Sahaba. Um or you know and and
37:47
37 minutes, 47 seconds
let let them also learn about uh the the Sahaba and what they went through because you know sometimes they see uh
37:56
37 minutes, 56 seconds
our beloved prophets as being higher than them, you know, like on a pedestal and the Sahaba were like in inverted
38:04
38 minutes, 4 seconds
commas everyday people everyday people like us, you know. So um which which they weren't because obviously they were
38:12
38 minutes, 12 seconds
were more learned and more knowledgeable but but what I'm trying to say is they learn about their courage and their struggles and you know the things that
38:20
38 minutes, 20 seconds
they went through with the prophets as well and they are human they were humans as well and we are humans so you know it's
38:28
38 minutes, 28 seconds
not like we we learning from uh someone who is a different kind to us.
38:34
38 minutes, 34 seconds
Yeah. you know that that that would be more on a relatable point I would assume.
38:38
38 minutes, 38 seconds
I think so. And then obviously um there's interactive media. So take your
38:45
38 minutes, 45 seconds
normal little cartoons or whatever you're reading or watching and there's Islamic animated series, you know,
38:54
38 minutes, 54 seconds
there's um these uh YouTube channels, there's these apps and stuff, podcasts
39:00
39 minutes
designed for Muslim youth that cover uh the SI that cover, you know, these
39:08
39 minutes, 8 seconds
stories of the Sahaba, all those type of things. Issa looks like he wants to say something.
39:13
39 minutes, 13 seconds
Um, there's this thing that I watch now and again um on YouTube. It's called N Kids.
39:26
39 minutes, 26 seconds
Okay. And what what do they do? So, um they have like Ramadan uh videos and stuff.
39:36
39 minutes, 36 seconds
And um the other one is like they'll read stories uh the person will be reading the
39:45
39 minutes, 45 seconds
stories and showing it on the screen as well.
39:49
39 minutes, 49 seconds
So I believe it's not only Ramadan stuff you know like they have like you mentioned you know like Islamic life but in a
39:56
39 minutes, 56 seconds
animated version. So that's why I think it would be more appealable to appeal is that a word appeal to kids.
40:04
40 minutes, 4 seconds
Yeah. There's there's a lot of um content creators now that are making um Islamic
40:12
40 minutes, 12 seconds
focused or ethos based umul use your talent use your talent for good and in Islam in an Islamic and knowledgeable
40:20
40 minutes, 20 seconds
wayd as long as you you know everyone made sure to to mention this to
40:28
40 minutes, 28 seconds
these people you know like verify so as long as you verify then bismillah and as long as it's within the boundaries you know like of Islam and
40:36
40 minutes, 36 seconds
and not um too much not comedy you know it has to be actual um learning opportunities.
40:44
40 minutes, 44 seconds
Yes. Yeah. And then um the next thing is practicing knowledge in action. So amal mastering daily duas and sunnas. The
40:52
40 minutes, 52 seconds
holidays are a perfect time to build strong habits without the morning school rush. So focus on learning and implementing the specific duas for
41:00
41 minutes
waking up, eating, leaving the house and sleeping like you mentioned. Yeah, we take time out of the day to do those
41:07
41 minutes, 7 seconds
things, but as kids um they sometimes still learning those those to us.
41:13
41 minutes, 13 seconds
Yeah. So, they need that little bit extra time and then rushing for the morning for school and making sure you get everything done before school may
41:20
41 minutes, 20 seconds
somehow you know get them to um slip or miss. So this holidays make sure you know I mean it's towards the end of the
41:28
41 minutes, 28 seconds
holidays but still you've got a week you can make we said make this week beneficial beneficial inshallah take that time you
41:35
41 minutes, 35 seconds
know don't just wake up now um there's nothing really you need to be awake for that early but if you are no obviously
41:43
41 minutes, 43 seconds
there's there's fud obviously but you know like before you wake up for f wake up a little bit earlier take that time out you know put your palms over your
41:51
41 minutes, 51 seconds
eyes read your dua when waking up and then go and make wudoo.
41:57
41 minutes, 57 seconds
So, you know, take that time, you know, before you enter a toilet. Don't rush to go because you have to rush to get get somewhere else. Before you go to the
42:05
42 minutes, 5 seconds
toilet, stop, read your dua, make sure you enter with a um left leg, you know, do remember your teachings basically so
42:14
42 minutes, 14 seconds
that inshallah if you continuously do it, then when you are in a hurry, you still remember to do it the right way.
42:23
42 minutes, 23 seconds
Like you said, you see if you if you're using this week to to do those things on continuous basis, then it will become a habit afterwards. So once you go back to
42:31
42 minutes, 31 seconds
school, you'll be doing those things with ease, inshallah. And then um living the sunnah challenge.
42:38
42 minutes, 38 seconds
So obviously we only have one week, but if you, you know, like you still had the three weeks, but there's still December holidays. There's always there's always time
42:46
42 minutes, 46 seconds
holidays coming up. So use each week to implement a different sunnah.
42:51
42 minutes, 51 seconds
Okay? you know like say week one you just smile all the time not all the time but smile to a person
42:58
42 minutes, 58 seconds
smiling is an act of charity you know saddaka so you know use that I'm giving that as an example yes and and that's a important point
43:06
43 minutes, 6 seconds
also because saddaka is not only money it's also doing something in a kind manner you know yeah so so every week choose something
43:14
43 minutes, 14 seconds
like maybe one week um or this week you help your parents around the house yes parents we are also helping you
43:22
43 minutes, 22 seconds
saying that the kids should help around the house and without uh your parents asking you.
43:26
43 minutes, 26 seconds
Oh, definitely. That is something the kids need to learn to help without being asked.
43:31
43 minutes, 31 seconds
And then um we said you know like charity and community projects. So there's a lot of things happening this week because of Mandela Day but we don't have to focus on that.
43:42
43 minutes, 42 seconds
Exactly.
43:43
43 minutes, 43 seconds
Um but you know you can go out volunteer help with community projects and there's stuff happening all the time. Um there's
43:52
43 minutes, 52 seconds
there's organizations looking for people to assist with painting the place or um help packing hampers or donating clothes or whatever it is.
44:02
44 minutes, 2 seconds
And then keeping like that brother said, keeping it in Islamically, you know, go look for the Islamic organizations that need the help throughout the year. You don't need to do it this week.
44:10
44 minutes, 10 seconds
Yes. As well.
44:12
44 minutes, 12 seconds
Yeah. And then lastly, um we look at nature, science, and reflection. So the science in creation Islam strongly
44:19
44 minutes, 19 seconds
