Nurah Speaks Nurah Muhammad

If you are chasing your haters you are moving in the wronnnng direction!  Make your Lord your exclusive object! Fear only the Lord and serve Him with truth! 



By however you define the Perfect Universal Ruler, that is of Whom we should be seeking our guidance and our favor.  Chasing anything else like adoration or fanfare can be a distraction.  And keeping up with your haters and persecutors is a misdirection.



Those of you in the trenches of service, those of you doing work making meaningful change in the lives of people, those of you sacrificing time, resources and energy and rest-it is not for praise and glory.  Rather, love of your people and your commitment to your diety compels your work.



So!  Be not weary in well-doing!  



Doing good work has it challenges and its critics but faint not for in due season, you and those you touch shall certainly reap!

The principle ‘Clean Glass, Dirty Glass’ teaches us that we do not need to condemn a dirty glass.  Instead, set a clean glass next to the dirty glass and the people can make their own choice based on the evidence we put before them.



This principle is intended to make us understand that condemnation of what we believe to be an inferior program, an ineffective methodology or an inadequate leadership, teaching, coaching, parenting or business model is really unnecessary. 



Where we are really challenged is in demonstrating what we say others should be doing.  Talking is always the easy part.  Establishing the superior results others can see, feel, touch and experience is something else.  In fact, this is the real work.  



Unless we have something to show, our talk alone cannot lead anyone to anything.

This episode is dedicated to the imprint that my Aunt Beauty has made on my life and the way we can impact the young people adjacent to us. 



I walked into a library recently and was flooded with the nostalgia of my first library visit as a very young child.  Aunt Beauty had taken me, my brother and cousin and I absolutely LOVED it.  To this day, I still love the library and I continued the tradition of visiting the library while raising my own children.



This was just part of her impact on my childhood.  This and other memories still resonates with me even decades later and forces me to consider way ways that I impact the young people who are around me.  



It is something of which we should all be mindful.  



What do we want our influence or persuasion to be in the lives of youth that they can extract years later in who they will become?

Reciprocity is a principle that supports the courteous elements of society.  The mutual exchange of kindness, support and manners establishes trust and balance in all interpersonal relationships.  



Reciprocity is not keeping score but it is giving back in equal or similar measure that which has been given.  When reciprocity is withheld, an imbalance can manifest that can create mistrust and destroy bonds.



It is a principle that we all should understand and practice and we teach our young people the same.

An abundance of good comes from giving.  And with so many ways to give, we have no excuse to forgo making meaningful impacts in our community.



Whether it is time, skills, or resources-giving has a way of helping the giver just as much as the person(s) being helped.  Your confidence and self esteem will grow, you’ll have more joy in life and you will have more gratitude.



Charity is a universal principle across most religions and philosophies because there is just something very right and rewarding about being unselfish.

“Kill kill kill, pill, pill, pill, money for sex, sex for money, money over love, money over love!”  



Music for urban listeners can be summed as explicit content containing harmful language promoting violence, drug use, and the objectification of individuals.  Since music has the ability to influence attitudes and behaviors, one should question why lyrical content exposing drug and alcohol abuse, self hatred and violence is produced en masse for the urban listener.
