Basically, Habib Umar was telling us to love Allah ( swt ) and Rasullulah ( saw ) before anything else in this world.

Habib Umar says,

If we understand the Quran and follow its teachings, we wil be given success. Allah ( swt ) says HE will replace the scaredness with peacefullness.

A person without Iman will live easily in this Duniya. They will build their lives like a Cobweb. A house is very weak if its like a cobweb.

It is WAJIB for us to love Allah ( swt ) and Rasullullah ( saw ) before any other humans. Only then can our Iman be sempurna.

Look at the lives of the sahabats. One of them told Rasullulah ( saw ) , " When Im at home with my wife and kids, I go crazy and I cant wait to see you again " .

A person who loves our prophet Muhammad ( saw ) will be with him, with the sahabats, shuhadah, siddiqins in Heaven. You will be amongsth them if you love them.

We must practise this love in our hearts. How do we Agongkan Allah ( swt ) ?
- we must agongkan our prophet , his companions, his decendents and the solehins. As this is an Order from Allah ( swt )
- we must practise Amal Ma'arof Nahi Munkar
- Solat dengan betul
When our hearts have agongkan Allah ( swt ), our hearts will not shift to the wrong way of life.

We must go about our lives the way Allah ( swt ) teach us. We must have good human relations between Muslims and Non Muslims.

Dont take the goodness of this world without remembering Allah ( swt ) teach us. Gunakan ia untuk mudahkan jalan kepada Allah ( swt ). Dont use something without a good cause. Use it for the benefit of human kind.

Habib mentions there is no force in our Deen. We must guide the Non Muslims with much adab and courtesy. Rasullulah ( saw ) preach with much hikmah.
Habib says if we can guide a Non Muslim to the right path and give him hidayah, it is better than getting an " Unta Merah " ... ( Unta Merah is like a term for something valuable like a mercedes car in today's context )

We must change ourself to be good. We must be far from what Allah ( swt ) has barred us from doing. Allah ( swt ) will then change our fate to be better. Sesungguhnya, Allah ( swt ) tak akan merubai nasib kaum itu, melainkan kaum itu merubah dirinya sendiri.

Our hearts must be clean : suci. It must bow to Allah ( swt ).
How can we say we are good, if within a week, we dont even cry because we are scared of Allah ? The companions of the prophet used to bow and cry at night but in the days they are strong warriors giving dakwah.

This is because their hearts are pure.

Innallàha wa malâikatahû yusallûna 'alan-nabiyy, yâ ayyuhalladhîna âmanû sallû alayhi wa sallimû taslîmâ. (Allah and His angels send blessings on the Prophet: O ye that believe! Send ye blessings on him, and salute him with all respect.) 33:56
