 that you're in the city of Medina and the year is 11 after Hidra and our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi he has just passed away and the event of Saqifah has just occurred. Now the Shia of Imam Ali alayhi salam they're being forced to give baita to this new ruler and I want to know what would you do in that situation? For example would you consider doing taqiyah and give baita but help the Ahlul Bayt alayhim as-salam in secret or would you even consider speaking out, risking your life, risking the lives of your family, your friends, what would you do? I think in such a situation I would speak out because it's not so easy to keep it quiet and to do taqiyah in my opinion I believe that speaking out would be the only thing that I can possibly do for them so I would try to keep a slight of low profile but be as loud as I can possibly be to help the Ahlul Bayt and to be beside them. When I think of how lonely the Ahlul Bayt alayhim as-salam must have felt in those days when nearly everyone deserted them I can't imagine it. Now I want you to picture that you are standing outside the house of Fatima to Sahra alayhi as-salam. This of course is such a blessed house, a place where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi would go every day and he would greet his daughter with such love, he would greet his grandchildren Al-Hasanwal Hussein with such warmth. I want you to imagine now that you are seeing the enemy troops come towards the house and you hear the threat is made but Fatima to Sahra alayhi as-salam she refuses their entry and now you see them push the door and you hear the cries of Fatima to Sahra alayhi as-salam and you see them set fire to the house and break in an entry. How would you feel seeing such a thing like that and how do you think you would react? It would be easy seeing the person that you love and a role model someone that you look up to being pushed in such a way I mean seeing your mother being her or she might cut her thing or something and it's so big for you and then this is this is someone higher than your mother this is the Fatima to Sahra the lady of the universe to see her in such a way wouldn't I I would probably break down crying I would run I'd rush to the door maybe push them away go and try to aid her I wouldn't be able to stand there quiet because it's just not something easy to do. Yes yes this religion of Islam you know you often hear the phrase Islam is a religion of peace when in reality it's fairer to say that Islam is a religion of justice that when we see someone when their rights have been taken away from them we do not stay silent we speak out we act to help them or even try to help them. I want you to imagine now that the attack is over and you walk inside the house of Lady Fatima alayhi salam and you see her lying on the ground and she's in so much pain and her children are there too Al-Hassan wal Hussain, Zaynab and Kulfun, young children so traumatised by what they've seen they're crying they're trying to get their mother to get up how do you think you would comfort them how do you think you would help to make the situation a little bit easier I don't believe that anything I can possibly do will make the situation any better because like I said before it's not something easy and there's not much I can do I'd probably be in so much like I'd be so upset myself that I wouldn't be able to comfort anybody else and what what am I gonna do like a month Imam al-Hassan wal Hussain I'm nothing compared to them how am I gonna be able to go and comfort them there's no there's no way I can think I can comfort them because I'm no one compared to them. These individuals they had the greatest of Imam and Thakwa they were the closest to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala and see how emotional and upset they got at these situations it reminds us that even the best among us can feel sadness and weakness and upset at these awful calamities. Finally sister I want you to now imagine that again you are in Medina but this time you are with Imam Mehdi may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala hasten his reappearance I want you to imagine that you are walking beside him through the city and he's taking you somewhere and you turn to him and say Yebna Rasulullah where are you taking me and he says to you I'm taking you to my grandmother Fatima to Zahra alaihi salam to that grave that place where every lover of Zahra wishes to know where that grave is so we can stand next to it to smell that scent to be close to her I want you to imagine that you are standing in front of that grave now and if you could say anything to her what would you say I think that I'd start off speechless and then slowly start to ask her if the things the services that I'm offering to the Ahlul Bayt if they are accepted if they are something that she likes I would ask her if the name that I take on like my name Fatima I took it from her if she's proud of it and if I'm making her proud with my actions and with the name that I'm carrying what a blessing that you have been given that name yes a very big blessing and I hope sincerely and pray that our lady is happy with you that she is pleased with you and I know that she is guiding you and praying for you every day of your life for that is the love that she has for her shea for her lovers I thank you so much sister for coming on here and being with me for imagine today and I and I hope inshallah that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will keep us all firm and steadfast on the path of the Ahlul Bayt alayhim as-salam and I hope above all that he hastens the reappearance of our master sahib as-salman so he may fill this world with goodness and justice and that we can strive to help him even in the smallest and maybe insignificant of ways
