 Assalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh Welcome to Mawls and Minutes I am Muhammad Ali and today we will talk about the greatest instrument that was made by mankind We as humans possess several abilities from mental to physical With the intellect that Allah SWT has placed in all of us has taken us from earth to the moon and further to the galaxies We have built skyscrapers, plans, massive ships, underground tunnels, metro systems, etc But where does all of that come from? But there is a problem that lies which is that this day of an age We see that our youth do not use the beautiful mind But instead hold on to media, video games and another means of technology There is nothing wrong with these technologies But when the technology sends you astray away from using your mind And using the greatest instrument that mankind was given, the pen, it becomes a serious problem Every idea begins with working the intellect and gaining knowledge Henceforth Islam has placed a high emphasis on seeking knowledge and specially high emphasis on the pen Since the pen can lead to both salvation and destruction Salvation when it works for the sake of the religion, humankind, etc And destruction when it creates false advertisements in media and weapons, etc With the pen our history, traditions and culture has been saved Knowledge comes first and then the pen transcribed Which is why the first verses revealed to our messenger a piece be upon him and his family were Read in the name of your Lord who created, he created man of a clot Read and your Lord is the most honorable who taught to write with the pen These words from the creator, the honorable, the beneficent Are crystal clear of the importance of knowledge and transcribing it by pen To conclude I will narrate the following tradition by the holy messenger peace be upon him and his family Our well-known hadith full of wisdom in which he says Seek knowledge especially the knowledge in religion For that the knowledge of religion Allah SWT loves surely for his worshippers And of course the knowledge gained is to be shared by the greatest instrument, the pen I pray that Allah SWT grants us all the opportunity of seeking knowledge And to use the simplest yet most important instrument known to the mankind the pen And to be able to transcribe and spread the works of Allah His messenger peace be upon him and his family and his holy progeny peace be upon them Wassalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
