Brothers and sisters we praise Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala we really thank him for everything he's granted us

We take so much for granted. We actually have much more than we deserve

We are actually those who have been blessed by so many things the biggest of these blessings is the fact that we declare the Shahada and

We have been chosen to be from amongst those who are Muslim in may Allah accept that from us

May he grant us ease in the dunya and in the ahrah in this world as well as in the next I mean

We also send blessings and salutations upon Muhammad al-Alahi wa sallam his household his companions

All those who have struggled through the years to protect and preserve the Dean and to convey it in a way that today

We are seated here in this beautiful little corner of London my shahla

This afternoon in shahla I will be sharing a few words connected to the family

And in shahla I hope and I pray that I can be from the first who can benefit from it in shahla

We all know that it is Allah

Subhanahu wa ta'ala who chooses who our parents will be so I did not choose who my parents shall be noted you

It is the choice of Allah where we do not have a say at all

So I did not choose that my parents should be from Yemen or from India or from Somalia or from Pakistan or from Nigeria

Or from America or South America or anywhere else. This is the choice of Allah

Subhanahu wa ta'ala. Nor did I choose that I be born in a specific place. I did not choose like we always say

Do you know that

Your parents your parents have made du'a for you most probably

To have a good child and so on but you and I have never ever had the opportunity to make du'a that

Ya Allah let me be born into a good home with decent parents that hasn't happened because we were not

Existence or we were perhaps existing in a totally different form may Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala bless us and grant us ease
