First thing I'd like to establish, inshallah, in my work and everything that I do is we always need to get primed for what we're about to hear.

We need to get primed and have our hearts ready, and I truly believe, like, this is what the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, you know, used to do with his believers, be it through asking questions, um, be it through, you know, those stories, those really powerful conversations that he had.

So some of the priming that I want us to do first and foremost is to understand, 'cause we're all here, alhamdulillah, this whole, you know, three days has been about creating change, right? Rising above the tide.

Change is a process, and when Allah Subhana has commanded us to recite Surah Al-Fatiha in every rakah of our salah, and we are called to have this practice of Istiqamah on Sirat al-Mustaqim.

Istiqamah, being on this path of Sirat al-Mustaqim that leads the path of guidance and goodness.

To be on this path is a process and a commitment to alhamdulillah constantly reviving, renewing our heart.

Change is not something I do and then I stop, but it is a process that I'm constantly committed to.

Because again, so many of us, Subhanallah, have a very narrow or superficial understanding of what change is, and Shaitan uses that against you.

When we think that change is a destination or that change, um, you know, Subhanallah is ambiguous, Shaitan will make you feel like you're never making any changes or you're not progressing.

And what do we do when we don't feel like we're progressing? What do we f- do when we feel like we are going to never arrive at that destination? Put into the chat, what do you do? Right? You tend to stop.
