We thank Allah for being in the masjid.

We thank Allah for our family, our health, our wealth, our iman.

Every single blessing we have, Wa Mabikum min Niyamatin, Famiin Allah.

Every blessing we have is from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

And of the blessings of Allah is community and umma.

Of the blessings of Allah is brotherhood and ufuhwa.

This is of the biggest blessings of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

Allah says in the Quran that if you were to give this entire world in trying to bring about

the brotherhood of the umma, the brotherhood of the people,

they would not have happened but Allah Azza wa Jal brought together.

Of course the references to the sahaba but to all of the Muslims Allah Azza wa Jal brought them together.

So we thank Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala for the blessing of community and iman

and I am very very grateful and humbled and thankful to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

and then to all of you for giving me this honor and I am not worthy of this honor

of being this title I don't like it a resident scholar.

I am one of you we are all on the team here.

Together we are a team and that team is team umma.

That team is for the umma of Islam.

That team is to preserve Islam for us and more importantly for our children and grandchildren.
