 It needs to be part of your life. You need to make this your main priority. If you want to learn the Arabic language and you want to be successful at it and not spend years and years and years trying and trying and trying like it happens to many students, they go year after year after year after five, six, 10 years. They have been learning the Arabic language and they don't get the fluency yet. They're not comfortable with it yet. They're not, and it's unnecessary. All of these long years, they are unnecessary. It shouldn't take that long. But it requires, first of all, to make it a priority. Later on, we will talk about keeping the momentum, which is very important as well. And I need you guys to pay attention on that video as well. But first of all, let's talk about how you make a part of your life. First of all, let me read to you a qawl by Ibn Qudama, Al-Makdisi, one of the ulama of Islam. He said, And it's important for the talib la ilm, it's important for him to cut or ties or relations or relationships that are shaghila, that occupies him, whether are physically, whether are mentally. He should cut all of these ties, all of these relationships. He should cut them out for the student of knowledge if he wants to be successful. Because when the fikra, when thinking about it, when being busy, when your mind is busy, thinking about things, about other people, about other subjects and things that are not directly your main priorities, when they become alaad, your thoughts, it's less probably that you are going to understand and catch the realities as in, because this speech is quite eloquent, as in when your mind is busy, thinking about other things, when your mind is busy with different thoughts, it's hard for you to understand things when they are explained to you on the first glance, on the first time that they are explained to you. Why? Because while you are watching something, while you are listening to a lesson, while you are listening to the teacher, your mind is thinking about this, thinking about that, after the lesson I need to do this, after the lesson I need to do that, this person wants me to do this for him, this person wants me to do this for him, and he just, he just, he just, he just, he just, he became less, less probably for you to understand the thing on the first thing, on the first time is explained to you. And here's what we want to get. At the end of this qaul, Ibn Qudam al-Makdisi, he says, And the salaf, the predecessors, the scholars of Islam, those who left with us all of these, all of these texts and all of this knowledge, Kano yuthiruna, they, they made a priority and they would prefer al-ilm before everything. And this is where we want to come and the objective of this video is to make you understand this. Seeking knowledge in the Arabic language, learning the Arabic language in this case, it should be the hustle of your life right now. It should be the main priority, the main thing to the point of if you are in the street and you meet someone that you didn't see for a long time and he asks you, Ya fulan, what are you up to these days? The first thing that comes to your mind is I'm learning the Arabic language. Yes, we all have responsibilities. We all work. We all have families. We all have responsibilities that are legit responsibilities. They cannot go away from your life. But your main priority, as soon as you free that time up and as soon as you stop doing those priorities and taking care of them, the first thing that you do and the first thing that you think of is your main priority, which should be the Arabic language is if you want to be successful at it and do it in the shortest amount of time and period possible. The Salaf, they used to make al-ailman seeking knowledge the asal of their life. It's the asal, it's the root, it's the main thing of their life. And the rest of it is just furu, furu'at, meaning branches. Your work is a branch. It's not the main thing. It's not what I live for. You know, your secular studies is not the main thing that I live for. Your relationships with friends, it's not the main thing that I live for. The main thing that I live for is to understand the Arabic language. So later on I can go ahead and memorize the Quran and understand it and understand what Allah and His prophet are telling me for me to secure my spot in the paradise. If you don't become obsessed like this, in this way, it will be very, very, very hard to go ahead and apply and be efficient in the learning of the Arabic language.
