woohoo

salaamu alaikum

yeaaaah, so today was funny. i had to give a lil khutbah at the darul taqwa summer camp right, so i looked up the hadith on the seven types of people that will be shaded on the day of judgement and decided to explain it and stuff. so i got up there, explained the seven types, and then sat down closing the first khutbah, and realized while i was sitting that i had nothing else to say. i didn't even think about what i was going to talk about for the second part. i had said everything i wanted to in the first part. greaaaat.

clock was ticking tho, so i got up, and started saying random things, and then tried to re summarize the hadith, and forgot it. so i stood up there for at least 10 seconds trying to figure out what the 3rd type was and i just couldn't, wouldn't come in my mind, and this is after i just gave a whole talk about this hadith. i was laughing at myself, (inside of course) and i'm sure the kids were too. and the older guys, and girls... haha, whatever. so i just said i forgot the rest and closed up with some more random stuff. i don't even remember it.

lesson: if you're not bringing notes, at least make sure you know the hadith well enough by heart.

then i came back to bmore and had all-you-can-eat crabs at loafers. heh, what a looser.

walaikum assalaam

We actually get prepared khutbahs (I think). Well, at least it sounds like its been pre-thought.

Was-Salaamu 'Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaah
