WHEN WORLDS WITHER AWAY

Guidance In The Latter Days: Sheikh Hamza Yusuf :- 

In this talk Sheikh Hamza Yusuf discuss the role of our existence as human being and the reason we were created. Based on the Quran, he explained three purpose of our existence one is to worship our God , Earth cultivation and lastly To Caliph. Every single creature has its own role in the cultivation of earth. If a person doesn’t worship, it doesn’t matter as long as he’s serving his land. He also said that in order to rule others, you have to rule yourself first.
Sheikh Hamza Yusuf  then proceeds on the negative attributions that are going on earth because of our failure to play our role as Caliphs. He categorized mischief in land and water and by giving the reference of Imam Al- Ghumari, a moroccan preacher, he said that on the day of judgement the earth will speak the truth about what we did to our environment. Graphs presented by Sheikh Hamza Yusuf showed us the increment in soil acidity and pollution, impacting our environment due to which great animals like Tigers, Lions, Eagles, Elephants, Rhinoceros are moving towards extinction. The deposition of toxic chemicals and waste products in sea water forms an acid causing problems for coral reefs and aquatic life to survive. 
Talk presented by the Sheikh Hamza Yusuf concerns about the pressing matters like “Who’s watching sexual content?”. A website claimed that every hour 68 billion videos are being watched world wide. The question rises here is that in what direction we are going as a nation. We have to recognize what is good or bad for us in order to fulfill our duties as a Muslim.
