 As-salamu alaykum everyone, may peace and blessings be upon all of you. As mosques, synagogues and churches and schools and other sanctuaries are gunned down, like I, like many others, fall into the state of despair, waiting for the hope to kick in. Like you all, I sat there looking at headline after headline, 49 dead, 50 dead, 51 dead. I became stuck on that word. Everywhere I turned that word echoed, that's when I came across a very timely quote that's in the Quran that I'd like to share with all of you. This quote goes, I never think those that have been killed in the cause of God as dead rather they are alive with their Lord receiving provisions. They are alive, they are alive through each and every one of us here today. They are alive, they remind us of how far we've come and how far we have to go. They are alive when we hold each other's hands in solidarity, they are alive as a reminder, they are with each one of us here today, right now, when we hold each other in a loving embrace with every tear and I would like to thank everyone for coming out today and to think of them as your own, as your brothers, as your siblings, as your family. Not just that, not just those who passed away this past, this week, but those that have passed away before, way before that, sorry. I have no words anymore. On my way here, I was thinking of what I could say. What I could say to make this pain a little bit easier, what I could say to leave that pain, to be able to walk, to be able to wake up and have hope in my heart. But to be honest, I don't have any more words. The hope that I get is from all of you here. The hope that I get is by looking at you right now. I have no more hope to offer. The only hope that I have is when I hold your hand, when I embrace you and I thank you for everyone. I generally thank everyone for being here today. Thank you so much.
