We praise Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, same blessings and salutations of Muhammad Salabah,

Aleyhi wa sallam,

I ask Allah to bless his entire household and all his companions and may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless every single one of us.

Beloved brothers and sisters in Islam,

people were engaged in a lot of vices, people were engaged in so much evil,

people used to worship one another,

people used to worship idols, made of food, made of stone carved out of wood,

people used to enslave women to the degree that they would sell their own daughters,

and they would consider a daughter something so bad that they were banning their daughters alive just because it was considered shameful.

The women were made to dance naked for the men,

the women were made to make bawaaf around the carabakh naked and so were some of the men.

Women were considered a commodity to the degree that they were not given any form of inheritance,

not at all, they were not looked after by their mails,

and at the same time they were bought and sold like anything.

If a man owed people money, he perhaps would take his wife or his daughter or his mother

and go and hand her over and say, look, you take her and you release me of the debt that I owe you.

People used to drink to the degree that they became drunk intoxicated,

they lost their minds, they did whatever came to their instincts at that particular moment once they were intoxicated.

And this resulted in mass death, people killed one another,

tribes fought with one another, they had absolutely no respect for anyone.

There was much racism and tribalism, slavery was life where people would enslave a stranger just because no one knew him.
