He's entitled household all his companions. We ask Allah

to bless them all and to bless every single one of us. I mean my beloved brothers

and sisters you and I know that Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala created man from dust.

He created man from soil. One might say well there is a difference between the

two. The reality is these are different stages within the creation of man.

Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala decided to use two components. Dust and water. So if

you take a careful look at it it was very possible for Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala to

use gold to create man or to use silver to create man or platinum or anything

that today we would consider valuable but Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala decided to

use dust or soil and on top of that when you and I are unclean we would use

water to cleanse ourselves. If there is no water available we are asked to use

dust. It will cleanse you. Similarly we do know that part of the component of

man is water. A lot of what we have in us is actually water. May Allah

Subhanahu wa Ta'ala help us understand that he has chosen these two in order to create

us for a reason. Similarly when he created a female it was his choice. Before I get to

that let me explain to you that there is nothing insulting in being created from dust.

Someone says what were you made from? Now you cannot say gold you cannot say US dollars

you cannot say anything else you have to say dust that's it. It is not an insult to

you that Allah chose to create you from dust. Your value is determined by what you are

today and who you are today and now and when you go back to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala

what deeds you are going to take back that is what your value is determined by.
