Upon all conditions we send blessings and salutations upon Muhammad salallahu alayhi wa sallam

and his household, his companions, may Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala bless them, bless everyone of us and bless humanity at large.

My brothers and sisters, I think it's very important for us to understand that the Almighty has reminded us so many times in the Quran

and even in the previous scriptures that he sent down to the messengers before Muhammad salallahu alayhi wa sallam

that we were all made from one source. We all came from something known as Torahb, Torahb meaning the dust.

Everyone was created from dust and the first of our species according to all the face that have heavenly scriptures was Adam, alayhi sallam.

They all believe that Adam was the first of our species just like we do believe the same.

And they all believe that Eve or Hawa alayhi sallam was the first female being created from Adam, alayhi sallam.

We ask the Almighty to grant us a deep pondering over this beautiful beginning.

It is the most honored beginning, it is the best that you can actually think of.

One might say, well, why dust? In order to show us the simplicity of the nature of this life, in comparison to the hereafter,

which is far more complicated, so complicated that the Hadith, the saying of the Prophet peace be upon him, he says,

In heaven there will be that which no eye has ever seen, no ears have ever heard about or understood in terms of sound,

and no mind or no heart would have ever even thought about it.

This means today I can sit and think about anything I want and I promise you I guarantee you, if you are to get to Jannah and to paradise,

you will find something much better than that, may Allah grant us paradise.

And by the way, don't think that paradise is like your house or mine where only ten people fit in and the rest of them will have to wait outside.

No, paradise is so broad, Allah says,

speaking about making haste towards seeking the forgiveness of Allah so that we can earn paradise, Allah speaks about how broad it is, how big it is, how huge it is,

and He says, just the width of it is greater than the earth and the heavens, and in another place He mentions that which is even beyond that, in brief,

paradise is so broad that we would be wrong to think we are the only ones going there.
