So yesterday someone sent me a clip that
uh that really disturbed me. I'm going
to say a few words.
In the 1800s there lived a Rabbi Weiss
in Galitian. Anybody was
you know wrote saw him and
his
there's a picture of him online very
inspiring.
I think he wrote the
something like that
on the for parts of the
and then he sent me a picture of his
grandson and his name is Muhammad Assad
I almost fell fell through my chair and
there was a clip there someone
interviewed him he became a Muslim
and uh
and I'm asking myself the question, how
is that possible?
The grandson of a of a Jew of Arav,
what happened over here? So, I listened
a little bit to what he said and he had
he says, I was born Jewish, but I always
had issues with two things. And one of
the things is that the Jews believe that
everything goes through them. The whole
world depends on them.
And I'm not going to go into the
philosophical
arguments and positions
about that,
but
I want to share the following. I believe
that there's something that was wrong in
his education as a child, as a teenager.
I haven't researched that and I don't
know if I will,
but
it's ballet. It's impossible,
impossible logically that someone who
comes from a solid Jewish education in a
normal way with normal parents in a
normal environment should come away with
those feelings and convert to Islam and
become a a mover and shaker in the world
of Islam.
Something went wrong.
And I think for us parents,
grandparents,
you have to listen
to the cry of the child.
And if you can't help them, and not
always can a parent help them, find
someone that can, a friend, a mentor,
someone else, a rabbi, a rebby, etc.
That's one thing. The other thing
there's something that Abdul Khan told
me years ago
that we see that amongst the the leaders
and the people involved cults
a large percentage of them were Jews and
Abel said you know why because only the
nephema
which a Jew has
can fall so low can go so low a non-Jew
who has a soul of
But not a Jewish soul, not an notis.
I'm not talking now about the
I'm talking about standard non-Jew
can't go so low because he doesn't have
that mechanism in him to go so high or
zu to go so low. So when you see someone
like this who comes from a Jewish family
and and and and Rabonim
and fall so low to become
a a Muslim and a leader amongst them,
Muhammad Assad,
whose name was Lepled Weiss,
that was his original name, Lepled
Weiss. You can look him up. It's because
he has a nish
and it's because he is a yeid.
He is a Jew. So my message to you is my
dear friends,
get in touch with your soul. Get in
touch with your nishama. And when you
get in touch with your nishama, you'll
be able to break through and not fall
into traps
deviating from the basic tenants of
Judaism and Torah.
And simultaneously, you us parents and
grandparents and teachers,
please
listen to your child, listen to your
teenager, listen to the pain, listen to
what's going on, and try to help them.
I'm not putting the blame
on the parent, on the teacher. I'm not
doing that. That's not my intent. But I
am saying
that we could be helpful.
At the end of the day, everyone has free
will.
That's the hardest thing for a parent is
to accept that about their children,
right? They make choices that are
different than ours. And it bothers us.
Well, they're independent.
You had a chance to grow and to be
independent. Give them that chance. So,
I understand that. But simultaneously
give them the right tools. Give them the
right tools. The right tools of coming
close to Hashem. And when we give the
youth the right tools, they will make
the right decisions. Sometimes it'll
take a rebound, but at the end they will
rebound. May Hashem help that the
Nishama of Lepid Weiss
who outwardly converted to Islam should
do Chuva. And he has done chuva because
he's already passed many years.
And we should learn from this the above
mentioned lessons and a will help that
will have only simas and happiness and
we will be stronger and stronger. Amen.
V amen. Thank you.
