'Eid Message to the Devil | The Greater Jihad Ep.7

So we've completed Ramadan, and Muslims are always sad to see it go. We're always sad to see it go. We're happy for the but we're sad to see Ramadan come to an end. And we pray that will allow us to live to see another Ramadan next year. And of course, because we know that the Shayateen have all been chained up during Ramadan, many Muslims feel some degree of dread.

You understand? Knowing that Shaytaan has now been unlocked, now that the fasting month is over. But I wanna tell you, this is the wrong mentality. This is the wrong mentality. You've got it backwards.

The truth is you've got it backwards. If you have the right mindset, then you'll understand that you have it backwards. We didn't have a break from Shaitan. Shaitan had a break from us. You understand me?

Because if you've got the right mindset, if you've got the right mentality, then that means that you are a problem for Shaitan. You've been a problem for Shaitan for that whole eleven months before Ramadan came. You understand me? That's an 11 round fight. And Ramadan, that's when the devil limps back to his corner to lick his wounds that you inflicted.

He's had thirty days to put ice on his injuries, to get his cuts stitched up, to do some physiotherapy, you understand, to take a breather from the beating that you've been giving him, Insha'Allah, round after round, month after month. And now the bell of Eid has rung and he has to come out and take another beating from the Muslims. That's how you should be thinking. That's the that's the mentality that you should have. Why do you really think that the devil is looking forward to coming back out into the ring against the Muslims?

Come back out and face a Muslim. Why I'm telling you he wishes that every month was Ramadan even more than you wish every month was Ramadan. Don't think about it like him being chained up protects you from him. No. Think about it like it protects him from you.

Ramadan is a break for him, not for you. And when he hears that takbira ringing out from the masajid of Allah, shaitan is the one who's filled with dread, shaitan is the one who's filled with fear and trepidation about what he's about to face because he knows that he's about to come out and face a superior fighter. He has to fight a superior opponent. Or Shaitan must be weeping when those chains get unlocked. That's the mindset that you need to have coming out of Ramadan.

You're a Muslim. You understand you're a Muslim. You've got superior technique. You've got superior training. You have better training.

You have the best coach. You have higher ring IQ. You're faster. You're stronger. You've got more power.

You've got more agility. You're a Muslim. Shaitan knows that he's about to get outmaneuvered. He knows he's about to get outclassed, outperformed, out fought, outlasted, and knocked out. And if that's not your mindset, I don't know what you're doing.

I don't know what you're doing. I don't know what kind of a pushover you must be in your life because that's your enemy. That's your enemy. You're clear and open and declared enemy. He said he's gonna do this and that to you.

He said he's gonna lay in wait. He said he's gonna lay in ambush for you on your right and on your left and in front of you and behind you and from below you. Do you understand me? He had the audacity to threaten you like that to your face. Shaitan talks trash about you.

He talks trash about your father. He talks trash about your children. That's your enemy. Aren't you mad? Doesn't that make you angry?

Do you let anybody talk to you like that in this life? Threaten you like that? Insult you like that? Insult your family like that? Well, what kind of a Muslim are you if you're coming out of Ramadan in anything but a bum rush against the devil?

That's how you should be coming out of the Masjid after Salatul Eid. Don't you dare come out of Ramadan tiptoeing like you're worried that Shaitan is gonna come after you, that Shaitan is gonna come for you. No. I'm saying don't wait for him to come for you. You go after him.

Go after him. You've been in high intensity training for thirty days. You understand me? Fasting, tarawi, Quran recitation, sunnah prayers, adkar, zakat, charity, strengthening ties of kinship and community throughout all of Ramadan. You've been in a in an iman training camp for a month straight.

And no one knows more about the devil than we do. SubhanAllah. No one knows more about the devil than we do. We know his moves. We know his strategies.

We know how he operates. We know his whole history. We've seen the fight tapes. You understand me? You're Shaitan's worst nightmare.

You are Shaitan's worst nightmare. The Muslims are Shaitan's worst nightmare. Wallahi. The last thing that he wants is for those locks to come off at the end of Ramadan and he has to come and face you again. He's scared of that day.

He's scared of the Eid. Believe me. Now, you need to go into attack mode. You need to go into battle mode. You need to go into fight mentality and come charging out of Ramadan like, let me at him.

You understand me? Let me at him. Make him wish that Ramadan would start all over again. That's the approach that you need to take mentally. You know how when there's a war.

Right? When there's a war and the winter comes, things always die down in the winter time. And then in the spring, when everything starts to thaw out, the war cranks up again. And everybody knows it's coming. Everybody's ready for the spring offensive.

Well, that's where we are right now. That's where we are right now. Yes. I'm telling you that Allah gave shaitan a month off. He gave shaytan a month off from us.

Because dealing with a Muslim who's locked in, who's locked in, who's prayed up, who's fasted up, who's Quran fed, who's community connected, and who's spiritually calibrated, that's exhausting work for the devil. Don't underestimate yourselves. Never. Don't underestimate yourselves. You know, you always see Allah telling us that shaitan is our enemy and you never flip that framing.

And you should because that's what Allah is trying to tell you. Shaitan is your enemy but you are Shaitan's enemy so you should act like it. You should act like it. You should tell that devil, tell Shaitan, tell Iblis, I hope you rested well. I hope you those thirty days gave you everything that you needed.

I hope you stretched. Right? I hope that your wounds got treated. I hope you you you you got yourself ready because you're gonna need it. Because you're gonna need it.

Because it's aid now. The bell just rang. The taquitra is calling. The chains just came off. And it's round one of another 11 round fight and we're not gonna go easy on you.

We're not gonna go easy on you at these next eleven months or these next 11 rounds. You spent a whole month thinking about what you were gonna do when you got back out here. You had thirty days to plan. You had thirty days to come up with your strategy. Thirty days to prepare all your schemes, all your plots.

But we already know all your tricks. That's the thing. We already know all your tricks. You never come up with anything new. Shaitan never comes up with anything new.

You never come up with anything creative. You've got the same old moves. It's always the same old moves, the same old patterns, the same old approaches, and we know them all by heart. We've already been through all of this time and time again. Like I say, we just spent the last thirty days, those same thirty days that you spent, we've been doing it preparing for you.

We haven't been just avoiding sin. We've been training. Believe me, you're not ready. Shaitan is not ready, but we are ready. So Shaitan, here's what the next eleven months is gonna look like for you.

You're gonna whisper because that's all you can do. You're gonna whisper in our ear, but we're gonna recognize your voice. We'll recognize it immediately. It's easy to recognize. I'll tell you why, because you always say the same foolishness.

Every single time you say the same foolishness. It's always the same thing. Do this and say you didn't do it. Look at this girl. Look at that girl.

Right? Slide into her DMs. This is always you. Spend money that you don't have. That's always you.

Brag, lie, be petty, pray later, go to sleep. That's you. We know it. Do this or that so that you can make money. Slander this one, insult that one.

We already know it's you. You're not slick. You understand? You literally can only get away with what we let you get away with. That's how weak you are.

You don't have a chance against a fortified Muslim. We know you're gonna try to divide us. That's one of your tactics, brother against brother, community against community, you know. Have us focusing on petty grievances and so forth. Have us misread tone when someone talks to us, hold on to grudges and whatnot.

It's so predictable. It's so predictable. But we're gonna choose each other anyway. We're gonna choose brotherhood anyway. Imagine, Chetan is so weak that he can't attack you except through your weak spots.

So literally, you already know. All you have to do is know what your own weak spots are and you know exactly where to find your enemy. You know exactly where he's hiding out. You just need to identify your weak spots. Maybe it's the opposite sex.

Maybe it's your ego, your pride, your greed or what have you. Maybe it's just that you have a short attention span that you get bored easily and that's how he gets you. That's nothing but the enemy's hiding place. That's the enemy's hiding place. That's where he's hold up.

That's where he's hold up and that's where you can attack him. Attack him in your own weaknesses. Your weaknesses of distraction, of lust, of loneliness, of despair, of arrogance, comfort, tribalism, short term thinking. We know your whole lineup, devil. We know your whole lineup.

And we're gonna fight them one by one. Every single strategy that you have, we're gonna fight it one by one and we're gonna win. Not because we're angels, but because we're trained. You know that the Allah does not describe shaitan as being all powerful. But he is described as being our sworn enemy who is gonna try to mislead the children of Adam and he described exactly how he planned to do it.

He described exactly how he planned to do it. That's why we know him so well. We know Shaitan better than anybody. We and we know him and we know his minions. We know his soldiers.

Because he told on himself. How clever can he be? He told on himself. He literally disclosed his whole agenda to us. He explained his whole strategy to the very audience that he planned to use it on.

How clever is that? Saying I'll come after them from the front and from the back, from the right and from the left and so forth. Okay. Noted. Thanks for the information.

Thanks for the intelligence briefing. Now we know exactly what you're gonna do. Now we know what to watch for. Now we know what to be steadfast and vigilant about. You announced your own playbook and you've been running the same place, the same playbook, you've been using that same playbook for thousands of years.

I said we've got tape on you and we watched the tape. We know everything about you already. This is what I need you to understand about our ummah, about the middle nation. We're not here to just be good Muslims for one month for Ramadan. We're not here to just talk with signal and perform iman when it's aesthetically expected and then go back to sleep.

Now, we're here to be a continuous compounding accelerating problem. We're here to be a problem for every system, spiritual, political, financial, and cultural that is running against the dignity of human beings. That's running against the sovereignty of Allah. And we're gonna call you out at every turn. We're gonna call you out at every turn.

Shaitan is not our only enemy, sure. But he's the root of every enemy. He's the architect of the ideological infrastructure that colonizes minds before the colonizers ever show up on their ships. If you can defeat Shaitan at the level of your nerfs, then you've already begun to understand how to defeat everything that is downstream of Shaitan. So when I tell you, when I tell you, I'm saying it like, let's get ready to rumble.

You understand me? Like a fighter coming out of the corner at the start of a new round who's fresh, who's purposeful, who's ready. The month of training is over. The month of training is over. Eleven months of application have begun.

And Shaytan, I'll tell you this. You're not fighting who we were in Rajab. You understand? You're fighting who Ramadan made us, the training camp of Ramadan. So come and take your beating.
