			His promises are true.
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:35

ads that which you are promised,
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:07
			is coming.
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:12
			Our instinct is of course to try
and run away
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:19
			as if that was possible, as if we
could avert the divine decree.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:27
			The very word death we're fats in
Arabic means fulfillments. Yet to

			say truly the death which you are
running away from, will come to
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:10
			you. And then you will be sent
back to the one who knows that
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:13
			which was visible in you and that
which was invisible and will tell
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:20
			you what you used to do. This is
inescapable. Death and taxes. But
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:25
			some people do evade taxation. But
even the super rich, don't evade
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:26
			death.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:33
			Look at Maxwell, look at Epstein.
Look at so many others titans in
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:39
			their age, all laid low. This is
the Sunnah of Allah in His
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:45
			creation, that everybody has his
agile, even the NBN the prophets
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:50
			are the most beloved of creatures,
they shall taste the bitterness of
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:55
			death and shall go through that
mysterious portal at exactly the
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:57
			moment that the Lord decrease.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:03
			So in this time, we can either
engage in war gathering,
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:10
			collecting stuff, like so many
other people nowadays who read
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:14
			books like 100 things to do before
you die as if that was somehow
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:19
			going to help you at the time you
do die. Have you done BASE
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:24
			jumping? Have you climbed El
Capitan? Have you traveled to New
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:27
			Zealand and Tahiti? Have you have
you have usually expensive
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:31
			environmentally destructive things
that are just goggling at a world
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:34
			whose source we no longer even
dimly Intuit
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:39
			Why do those 100 things before you
die if you're not going to take
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:42
			them with you, but still we run
around
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:45
			this way and that
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:48
			so it is like
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:52
			the poet said
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:58
			that also new to true Byron Bay

00:04:03 --> 00:04:09
			the PERT here compares human souls
coming down onto the world like
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:12
			raindrops falling on the clay roof
of a traditional house
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:18
			to her so EP Davide you run around
in every direction like these
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:22
			raindrops busily bouncing and
cascading this way and that until
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			you all go out through the same
drain
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:30
			we know we don't have tea that's
where we will all exit
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:34
			the same gutter will claim us all
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:41
			how much pass to other ng golf to

			be silent friend from the pain of
speaking, say no more because you
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:55
			are traveling into the embrace of
the beloved host.
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			But that's how we are we come down
into the surface
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			to this world and how busy we are
running this way and that,
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:09
			but the end is coming in number to
our donor.
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:14
			So in this time while we're on
this mysterious surface of things,
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:18
			trying to work things out, we
usually don't do that at all.
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			Well, even if we bother to try,
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:26
			we can think about where we're
going. Or we can be distracted by
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:30
			where we are. Most human beings
choose the latter of those two
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:35
			because we're gravitational beings
that like the easy route always.
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:39
			The path of least resistance is
sweet and charming.
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:44
			But the Holy Prophet says
sallallahu alayhi wa salam, O ke
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:49
			Salman den and if so who were
Amina Lima Abaddon, molt. Well IG
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:52
			Zalman expert inf Sahuaro.
However, habite Ananda Allah not.
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:57
			The intelligent person is the one
who calls himself to account and
		
00:05:57 --> 00:06:03
			act for what is after death. The
loser, the useless person is the
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:08
			one who allows his ego to follow
its pleasures, but just hopes for
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:10
			Allah's forgiveness to mean that
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:16
			there's two kinds of hope, Arabic,
there's Rajat, and there's too
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:22
			many Rajat is the hope that we
experienced when Allah describes
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:26
			his mercy to us, and tells us
about the infinitude of his
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:30
			gardens, and about the beauty
which awaits us if we are to
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:34
			experience that grace and
forgiveness from our Creator. How
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:35
			could we not hope for that.
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:39
			But at the same time, there is
another human hope, perhaps more
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:44
			common with the Arabic language
called Timoney, which means a vain
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:48
			hope. I'm going to do X, but I
hope that y will be the result.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:54
			I'm going to do this and hope
against hope. It may be hopeless.
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:59
			I'm going to just buy a scratch
card and do the lottery and take
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:03
			these risks and I hope it will be
alright. I'm going to drive down
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:07
			the M 11. At 110 miles an hour and
I hope that things will be
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:12
			alright. This is reprehensible
hope. This is too many. This is an
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:17
			abuse of human reason and of
dependence on the Creator. To what
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:20
			called reliance on God doesn't
mean you just sit back as if
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:25
			religion was some armchair of
promises, and just let things take
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			their course.
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:32
			Holy Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam tells his Sahaba Helman
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:37
			Bhushan, Miran, Lil Jana, Allah in
the agenda Tila Katara Allah is
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:42
			there anyone here who will roll up
his sleeves for Paradise? Paradise
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:43
			has no like
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:49
			the blue ocean maroon Aloha era
solo na they say we're the ones
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:52
			who will roll up their sleeves for
it you're Rasulullah you roll up
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:55
			your sleeves when you're about to
do a job of work when you're about
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:58
			to sweat to make an effort to
sacrifice not just sit around,
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:01
			watching something meaningless but
actually the garden of the garden
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:05
			shed pick up your tools and fix
something. Do something with your
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:10
			afternoon. Don't just to Munna
Allah, Allah hope that Allah will
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:15
			sort it out. No human agency is
real. We experience it as real, we
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:16
			are required to act.
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:23
			And this is why the believer does
not fear death. Not really
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:27
			whatever a state the world may be
in at present. The Holy Prophet
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:30
			says sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
in the extraordinary Hadith
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:34
			narrated by Timothy to fettle,
Mothman and molt.
		
00:08:36 --> 00:08:41
			Death is the precious gift to the
believer, if he's really a
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:45
			believer, and he's rolled up his
sleeves, and he's actually got on
		
00:08:45 --> 00:08:48
			with making something of every
moment of his life, while not
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:51
			thinking that his actions will
save him only Allah saves, but at
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:56
			least he is responding and obeying
the divine call putting himself in
		
00:08:56 --> 00:08:59
			the way of that grace, even if he
can't guarantee it. He's putting
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:02
			himself in the way of the rain
even though he can't make it for
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:07
			that individual. When death comes,
it's a gift.
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:13
			Look at the two who were in the
cave
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:17
			30 If none is Hummer fuel are
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:24
			the second of the 2/30 name they
were in the cave in Abu Bakr
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:28
			Siddiq radula one was afraid that
Night of the Long Knives the
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:30
			Quraysh the posse they were out to
kill him.
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:37
			But he says to his companion
Loretta Zahn in the llama Anna, do
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:42
			not be grieved. Allah is with us
are facing death.
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:49
			Nobody around to support them. Say
the suits Samia and others coming
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:54
			by night. But the situation look
bleak. Islam in Makkah seem to
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:57
			have been defeated. Some of the
Sahaba had already lost their
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			lives and the others chased out
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			INTO A FAR and seemingly hopeless
exile
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:06
			that he is with his friend.
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:09
			And in the poem
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:13
			Scheffel Islam, Abdullah Quilliam
writes about this.
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			That he has the Holy Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:23
			consoling Abu Bakr Siddiq, saying,
will he we live, no mortal power
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:29
			can take our lives away, will he
we die to him we pass, no need to
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:30
			feel dismay.
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:35
			And this is the law toxin. Do not
be grieved.
		
00:10:36 --> 00:10:39
			If you live and you survive, there
is more opportunity for
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:42
			experiencing the wonders of God's
world which is all his science,
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:47
			opportunities to serve him to
serve humanity. It's higher, it's
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:47
			good.
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:52
			If your Agile has been determined
for this time, that is also from
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:56
			the Divine decree that it is also
to be accepted.
		
00:10:57 --> 00:11:00
			To him we pass no need to feel
dismay.
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:06
			Turn on your him rave on or off T
you're going on to the embrace of
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:08
			that beloved friend.
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:10
			What's wrong with that?
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:18
			So the believer to the extent that
he has Iman, the Mothman is not
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:23
			really afraid. La homophone Allah
him, Willa homie arsenal. There is
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:28
			no fear upon them, neither do they
grieve. He accepts a quarter
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:32
			Holloway he will murrihy the
divine decree the bitter and the
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:38
			sweet of it, because he knows that
it comes from his beloved from his
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:43
			Lord, the one who's disposition of
all things is always in a state of
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:47
			complete perfection. And this is
radar, on the radar, which means
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:51
			to be contented with Allah's
decree is a state of happiness,
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:54
			not a fear or misery. If you
accept that only Allah's decree
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:57
			can come about, you'll be fine.
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:03
			Man Amma Nabil Kadar, Amina minnow
Kadar, whoever believes in Kadar
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:08
			Allah's decree of things, he is
safe from stress from any kind of
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:12
			inner turbulence, because he knows
that everything is under control.
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:16
			What Ilahi does zero or more, all
matters go back to Allah.
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:22
			So the believer fears, his bad
actions, fears his times of
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:27
			distraction, fears that his Tober
may not be adequate. But the
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:31
			believer hopes in his Lord, he has
the Rajat and his Lord has said
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:36
			that he is ultimate Rafa mean, the
Most Merciful of the Merciful. So
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:40
			those who in the month of Ramadan
ended the season and in this time,
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:45
			pass on through the curtain of
death, Allah subhanaw taala has
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:50
			described himself as the most just
and as the most merciful, Shaolin
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:55
			Jaromir rebounder of tea, who
would not wish to go on to the
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:59
			most generous and the most just
and away from the injustices and
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:03
			the suffering, the pain and the
turbulence and the khadar of this
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:08
			world. So this is the affair of
the believer, Anja badly Helen
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:14
			Bachman amazing is the state of
the believer. And the believers
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:20
			that Alia la hoffen Ali him will
love him yes or no. No fear comes
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:24
			upon them neither do they grieve.
Not fear the future that's in
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:28
			Allah's hands and therefore, the
future is good. Rama ardella,
		
00:13:28 --> 00:13:31
			correctness, appropriateness,
rightness
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:38
			and the past, also in his hands,
and it can't be fixed. What's
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:42
			gone, is gone. And we look
forward, not to the outcome of our
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:47
			actions which muddy inadequate
distracted things, but onto the
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:51
			one who has called himself or her
murder, I mean, a criminal
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:56
			acromion rabbit alanine, say May
Allah subhanaw taala have mercy on
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:59
			all of those who are taken back to
him in this blessed month of
		
00:13:59 --> 00:14:03
			Ramadan, and accept all of their
actions according to their best
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:08
			intentions, and overlook
everything that they did. That was
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:12
			in violation of his command and
his law and help us to be people
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:18
			of sunnah and is to karma and
rightness in sha Allah, in this
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:22
			time of distraction and of
confusion and fear. Baraka lofi
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:26
