The Role Model




Nouman Ali Khan show

Summary: “"اسلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته<br> “الحمد لله رب العالمين ، والصلاة والسلام على سيد الأنبياء والمرسلين و على آله وصحبه اجمعين”<br> I don’t know about you, but that was a lot of really awesome talks &amp; I am a little dizzy myself, I had all these thoughts that I wanted to share with you but I am kind of overwhelmed with what I have heard myself. So, first of all I would like you to give it up to all of our presenters; Jazakumullahu Khairan. And it is very intimidating going after heavy weights like that, not literally, OK so, Umm.. But I do want to share with you &amp; I don’t think I’ll take that much time, I really honestly don’t think I will take that much time. Umm..I do wanna share with you some thoughts that I have some convictions that I have, some things that I have no doubts about in my mind, that I in shaa Allahu T’aala, I will see them in my near future &amp; if not, my children will see them in the United States in the very very near future. We are going to see a new standard for the Muslim community, we are going to see the standard being that are high school graduates, it’s not out of the ordinary that our boys &amp; girls have already memorized the Quran by the time they come out of high school. It’s gonna be a new standard. No, wait for the takbeers; hold on, that’s just the start. It’s gonna be a new standard that by the time our youth are in college, that they are fluent &amp; versed in the Arabic language at the very minimum as a second language &amp; they are already working their way to a third &amp; a forth language of their choice. So when they speak with each other &amp; they wanna kick it with each other they’ll kick it in Arabic, they’ll kick it in the language of the messenger of Allah (SAW) in “"الفصحة. There is no “عاميه”. "عاميه" dies in America. The dialectical Arabic dies in America &amp; “"الفصحة is born &amp; doesn’t matter if these children are African American or they are Indonesian or they are Pakistani or Bangladeshi, their Arabic is incredible &amp; by the time they come out of high school &amp; college, they’ll go onto their education &amp; by the way they haven’t just memorized the Quran, they have been studying it their entire life too &amp; by the time they come out of college their education in the Seerah &amp; in the fundamentals of Islam is rock solid. It is absolutely rock solid &amp; of course those of them that are Pakistani or still gonna go to Med school only &amp; you know the vast majority of the Arab kids will still go on to be engineers in shaa Allahu t’aala because that’s a sunnah, right? But as they will go into those professional fields for the sake of “Islam” (*moves his hand in order to represent money*) as they do, even though they’ll go into those fields they’ll make sure, they’ll make sure that they have a minor in something that actually means something. They’ll at least have a minor, if not a bachelors before they go onto higher studies in sociology, in political science, in history, in anthropology; they’ll study the human sciences, the areas of enquiry that actually influence human thought because now that they have the guidance of Allah ‘Azzawajal, they study how far human studies have gone in understanding ourselves &amp; they’ll bring those two worlds together. They’ll understand political science from Quran’s point of view. They’ll understand psychology from the Quran’s point of view, from the prophetic point of view. They’ll understand sociology form the prophetic point of view, from the Quranic point of view. These will be a renaissance generation. They’ll be incredibly intelligent people &amp; the people all over the Muslim world are gonna say, one day is gonna come, you know how we used to say back in generations, “Where did you go to get you ‘ilm?” &amp; people used to say “I went to Baghdad” &amp; somebody went to Madinah &amp; somebody went to this institution &amp; that institution. People are gonna say “I went to Delaware”,
