 Assembly gum everyone can you all hear me okay, so I have a couple of questions for everyone And I want you to raise your hand, but I need you all to be very quiet when you're doing this, okay, so I Don't raise your hand if you agree. I don't like spiders. I think they're scary and gross Okay, okay, you put your hands down. What about ants who thinks ants are Weird and you know bees bees are scary. They sting right? Okay, well kids here don't like these three creatures But it's important to be kind to them because you have to remember that a lot of time I love created all of them And that they're all living creatures and all three of these creatures All three of these creatures have a sura named after them in the Quran Okay, that's the story of the spider Okay, so when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and Abu Bakr were traveling from Makkah to Medina We're traveling from Makkah to Medina. They were being followed and hunted down by very bad men from the Quraysh So they went and they hid in a cave. Who knows what happens next? Do you want to say just what happens next is that they find a spider web in the spider webs lakes helps them Yeah, yeah, they find the Quraysh foul of them and they go to a cave and the cave has a big Spider web and a bird has laid her eggs in a nest and they say there's no way that the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu alayhi wa sallam can be in the cave because those spider web would be all broken But look at that unless one of the Allah told the spider to save the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam by building a web Isn't that so amazing so amazing for some other reasons as well It was another bad bugs that could harm us and that they make their webs out of is much much stronger than steel So it's important that when you see a spider You don't step on it and you gently take it outside Just like you shouldn't swat away bees bees won't sting you unless you go and you hurt them on the trees And the trellis is that they erect they eat from every ways of your Lord there comes from its belly a juice of diverse Cues and which there is a cure for the people There is indeed a sign in that for people who reflect to feel sick I always have honey and it makes my throat feel better who else has honey when they feel sick raise your hand and enjoy He could talk to animals was walking with his big army He came upon home. So Salaman and his armies do not crush you unknowingly Salaman smiled and made sure his army did not step on the ants and waited for them to go back into the ground Ants are amazing creatures just like the bees and the spiders we talked about They live in they live in communities just like us and they love to work together great things for the soil They when they borrow and make their homes underground They loosen the soil so that the plants can grow healthy and strong and that they can carry up to 20 times their own weight and some really special ants like the leaf cutter ant can carry up to 50 times It's way that would be how we should behave with them. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in the Quran Muhammad Not but as a mercy for all that exists the Prophet Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam was a mercy for us humans But also for animals as well One time a companion narrates that we were on a journey and during the Prophet's absence We saw a bird with its two chicks and we took them the mother bird was circling above in the air Beating its wings in grief when the Prophet Muhammad returned He said who has hurt the feelings of this bird by taking its chicks return them to her Not only should we be kind to animals and not physically hurt them We have to make sure we don't stress our animals out the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam They move as that one time at one time after the Prophet heard the other then he got up to pray And he went to go put on his robe and a cat was sleeping on it. Well as I was sleeping on the robe So sleep he cut off the sleeve and then he wore the robe. I know when my cat Milo sleeps on my clothes I just pick him up and toss him off. I have a lot to learn from the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam Okay, just shout it out in the Bay Area. They all eat insects and farm our food and our Fruit fruit trees only when they go and drink the nectar from patient and echolocation is when they go objects Their echolocation is so good. They can get an image of what is front in front of them They can tell the sides the shape and the movement of a flying insect that we live near Cornward packer have bright red feathers on their head if you take a walk or hike amongst the oak trees You can hear loud sock squawking sounds they go Whole big enough in a tree which can take up to 20 minutes They stick an acorn in it to save for later when you knew these little guys are bright away from with their color So if you pick one up you have to wash your hands after they love damp habitats and live near creeks Now that the rainy season has started we should be able to see them calling around It is really important to take care of the environment and their earth by not littering and making sure to pick up trash When you see it on the ground not only will you be getting a good deed? You will also be helping all the animals that get caught in plastic and choke on trash Remember all living things glorify Allah's man on Da'ala and it is important to be kind to them all I have a small story about animals glorifying Allah that I will read Which I will read by putting the mic in the sand Said Jamal being inshallah.
