Salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu. Salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu. From my Baadu, my brothers and sisters, there was a tragic accident, I think yesterday, where a bus carrying a group of pilgrims on the Mecca-Madina Highway had an accident with a, had a collision with an oil tanker and caught fire and completely burnt. And in that fire, I think about forty plus pilgrims died. They were Shaheed. And many of them, if not all of them, were from Hyderabad. Terrible tragedy. We ask Allah to forgive them and grant them, grant them Jannah of the Prophet. Grant them the clothes and the, grant them the Dharaja and station of being Shaheed. One of the tragic things of this accident was that eighteen members of the same family, they all died together in this accident, by Allah's mercy. There were forty-six people on this bus. I'm talking about the decree of light. And Ras Mahantala shows this. There are two accidents of this nature. One is this one, in which there were forty-six passengers on this bus. Forty-five died, one walked free. He is being treated for whatever injuries he received. But he seems to be okay. Another accident which happened recently in this way was when the Air India plane in Ahmedabad took off from Ahmedabad airport and crashed onto a hostel, a student's hostel. Imagine these students are sitting there having breakfast, the plane falls on top of the hostel and they die there. And everyone in that plane perished except one person. And that one person walked out. And he was just a minor injury. But everyone has died. Another accident I remember was when there was a plane, if I'm not mistaken, it was one of the Central Asian Republic's plane, meaning the plane belonged to the Central Asian Republic. And it was being flown by Air India on a wet lease. This plane landed in Delhi and broke into two. Literally the fuselage just split into two on the runway. And I know somebody personally who walked away from that plane completely unscathed. And the interesting thing is nobody died in that accident. The plane just broke into two. There was no fire. No one died in that accident. Including there was a small baby. Everybody survived. So Alhamdulillah, life and death is in the hands of Allah . We ask Allah for goodness and well-being in everything. We ask Allah to protect everyone from accidents. All the more important to remind ourselves to drive safely. And not just drive safely but to be in a safe state. Because otherwise, you know, to be in a safe state, because sometimes people, they try to drive safely. Nobody drives. Or rather, let me not say nobody drives. People do. But at least sensible people don't take risks driving. But maybe they are in a situation where they, where they, they are impaired because of lack of sleep or some other, some other reason. And that results in terrible accidents. So this is something to keep, you know, to think about. And to make sure that you are never in that kind of a state. The responsibility of the driver is for himself, for herself and for the passengers as well. So that's one part of the story. But the second reason I am saying all this here, apart from of course asking all of you to make dua for these people, is because some friend of mine, may Allah bless them, and bless them and bless their affection for me and good intention, with which they say these things. They said to me, please avoid road travel. Don't travel by road. Go by train from Makkah to Marina. It's not safe. Road travel is not safe. Now I know the intention with which they are saying that. That is a beautiful intention we have. May Allah swt help us to always wish the best. For each other. So, but having said that, the reason I am saying this is because, let us always be clear in our minds, that life and death is decreed by Allah swt. And if Allah swt decrees that you or I will die in a particular way, that will happen. Nothing that you do is going to change that. Nothing that you don't do is going to change that. And having said that, should you take precautions? Of course. We as human beings have been, as people have been, wanted to do whatever we need to do. So by all means take precautions. By all means, do whatever is reasonable. But to believe that the seat belt saves your life, or to believe that being in a particular model of car, somebody says, oh, you are a car driver, you are a driver, you are a driver, you see if that person had been driving a Mercedes, they would not have died. Well, if Dianna had died in armoured Mercedes, she was in the back, not even in the front. Whereas the, out of the two people in the front, I can't remember if it was the driver or the guard, one of them survived. Even after hitting the pillar of the tunnel, head on. Whereas both the occupants in the back ...
