Bismillah Alhamdulillah wa salatu salam ala Rasulillah were early he
was off be a woman who Allah.
Allah subhanaw taala says
in the mirror to adorn Allah, toma and to be more cheesin. So the
caller who owes him that which you are promised will surely come, and
He will not escape.
His promises are true.
And he has promised that at the end of this time of distraction,
of grazing, of looking around of perplexity, there will be
certainty
what our bond Rebecca had to occur earlier up in worship your Lord
until that which is certain, or certainty comes to you. usual
meaning of this is that it is death, that gateway which beckons
all of us in number to our donor ads that which you are promised,
is coming.
Our instinct is of course to try and run away
as if that was possible, as if we could avert the divine decree.
The very word death we're fats in Arabic means fulfillments. Yet to
ufer Come Malakal motility will kill or become the angel of death
which you have been entrusted to will bring you to the end of your
term.
That is our agile and we are not marches in, we will not escape it
all in moto Lita federal Runa Minho for inner home hola pecan.
So matura Dona Illa Allah Milk Baby washer heard that he fell you
in a bo comb, be Americans on Tama don't
say truly the death which you are running away from, will come to
you. And then you will be sent back to the one who knows that
which was visible in you and that which was invisible and will tell
you what you used to do. This is inescapable. Death and taxes. But
some people do evade taxation. But even the super rich, don't evade
death.
Look at Maxwell, look at Epstein. Look at so many others titans in
their age, all laid low. This is the Sunnah of Allah in His
creation, that everybody has his agile, even the NBN the prophets
are the most beloved of creatures, they shall taste the bitterness of
death and shall go through that mysterious portal at exactly the
moment that the Lord decrease.
So in this time, we can either engage in war gathering,
collecting stuff, like so many other people nowadays who read
books like 100 things to do before you die as if that was somehow
going to help you at the time you do die. Have you done BASE
jumping? Have you climbed El Capitan? Have you traveled to New
Zealand and Tahiti? Have you have you have usually expensive
environmentally destructive things that are just goggling at a world
whose source we no longer even dimly Intuit
Why do those 100 things before you die if you're not going to take
them with you, but still we run around
this way and that
so it is like
the poet said
that also new to true Byron Bay bombing all in a car by harsil
EBITA V. Debbie NaVi Donner off T
the PERT here compares human souls coming down onto the world like
raindrops falling on the clay roof of a traditional house
to her so EP Davide you run around in every direction like these
raindrops busily bouncing and cascading this way and that until
you all go out through the same drain
we know we don't have tea that's where we will all exit
the same gutter will claim us all
how much pass to other ng golf to a go yeah Hema hosp guitar pen oh
he turn on your ribbon rough t
be silent friend from the pain of speaking, say no more because you
are traveling into the embrace of the beloved host.
But that's how we are we come down into the surface
to this world and how busy we are running this way and that,
but the end is coming in number to our donor.
So in this time while we're on this mysterious surface of things,
trying to work things out, we usually don't do that at all.
Well, even if we bother to try,
we can think about where we're going. Or we can be distracted by
where we are. Most human beings choose the latter of those two
because we're gravitational beings that like the easy route always.
The path of least resistance is sweet and charming.
But the Holy Prophet says sallallahu alayhi wa salam, O ke
Salman den and if so who were Amina Lima Abaddon, molt. Well IG
Zalman expert inf Sahuaro. However, habite Ananda Allah not.
The intelligent person is the one who calls himself to account and
act for what is after death. The loser, the useless person is the
one who allows his ego to follow its pleasures, but just hopes for
Allah's forgiveness to mean that
there's two kinds of hope, Arabic, there's Rajat, and there's too
many Rajat is the hope that we experienced when Allah describes
his mercy to us, and tells us about the infinitude of his
gardens, and about the beauty which awaits us if we are to
experience that grace and forgiveness from our Creator. How
could we not hope for that.
But at the same time, there is another human hope, perhaps more
common with the Arabic language called Timoney, which means a vain
hope. I'm going to do X, but I hope that y will be the result.
I'm going to do this and hope against hope. It may be hopeless.
I'm going to just buy a scratch card and do the lottery and take
these risks and I hope it will be alright. I'm going to drive down
the M 11. At 110 miles an hour and I hope that things will be
alright. This is reprehensible hope. This is too many. This is an
abuse of human reason and of dependence on the Creator. To what
called reliance on God doesn't mean you just sit back as if
religion was some armchair of promises, and just let things take
their course.
Holy Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam tells his Sahaba Helman
Bhushan, Miran, Lil Jana, Allah in the agenda Tila Katara Allah is
there anyone here who will roll up his sleeves for Paradise? Paradise
has no like
the blue ocean maroon Aloha era solo na they say we're the ones
who will roll up their sleeves for it you're Rasulullah you roll up
your sleeves when you're about to do a job of work when you're about
to sweat to make an effort to sacrifice not just sit around,
watching something meaningless but actually the garden of the garden
shed pick up your tools and fix something. Do something with your
afternoon. Don't just to Munna Allah, Allah hope that Allah will
sort it out. No human agency is real. We experience it as real, we
are required to act.
And this is why the believer does not fear death. Not really
whatever a state the world may be in at present. The Holy Prophet
says sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in the extraordinary Hadith
narrated by Timothy to fettle, Mothman and molt.
Death is the precious gift to the believer, if he's really a
believer, and he's rolled up his sleeves, and he's actually got on
with making something of every moment of his life, while not
thinking that his actions will save him only Allah saves, but at
least he is responding and obeying the divine call putting himself in
the way of that grace, even if he can't guarantee it. He's putting
himself in the way of the rain even though he can't make it for
that individual. When death comes, it's a gift.
Look at the two who were in the cave
30 If none is Hummer fuel are
the second of the 2/30 name they were in the cave in Abu Bakr
Siddiq radula one was afraid that Night of the Long Knives the
Quraysh the posse they were out to kill him.
But he says to his companion Loretta Zahn in the llama Anna, do
not be grieved. Allah is with us are facing death.
Nobody around to support them. Say the suits Samia and others coming
by night. But the situation look bleak. Islam in Makkah seem to
have been defeated. Some of the Sahaba had already lost their
lives and the others chased out
INTO A FAR and seemingly hopeless exile
that he is with his friend.
And in the poem
Scheffel Islam, Abdullah Quilliam writes about this.
That he has the Holy Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
consoling Abu Bakr Siddiq, saying, will he we live, no mortal power
can take our lives away, will he we die to him we pass, no need to
feel dismay.
And this is the law toxin. Do not be grieved.
If you live and you survive, there is more opportunity for
experiencing the wonders of God's world which is all his science,
opportunities to serve him to serve humanity. It's higher, it's
good.
If your Agile has been determined for this time, that is also from
the Divine decree that it is also to be accepted.
To him we pass no need to feel dismay.
Turn on your him rave on or off T you're going on to the embrace of
that beloved friend.
What's wrong with that?
So the believer to the extent that he has Iman, the Mothman is not
really afraid. La homophone Allah him, Willa homie arsenal. There is
no fear upon them, neither do they grieve. He accepts a quarter
Holloway he will murrihy the divine decree the bitter and the
sweet of it, because he knows that it comes from his beloved from his
Lord, the one who's disposition of all things is always in a state of
complete perfection. And this is radar, on the radar, which means
to be contented with Allah's decree is a state of happiness,
not a fear or misery. If you accept that only Allah's decree
can come about, you'll be fine.
Man Amma Nabil Kadar, Amina minnow Kadar, whoever believes in Kadar
Allah's decree of things, he is safe from stress from any kind of
inner turbulence, because he knows that everything is under control.
What Ilahi does zero or more, all matters go back to Allah.
So the believer fears, his bad actions, fears his times of
distraction, fears that his Tober may not be adequate. But the
believer hopes in his Lord, he has the Rajat and his Lord has said
that he is ultimate Rafa mean, the Most Merciful of the Merciful. So
those who in the month of Ramadan ended the season and in this time,
pass on through the curtain of death, Allah subhanaw taala has
described himself as the most just and as the most merciful, Shaolin
Jaromir rebounder of tea, who would not wish to go on to the
most generous and the most just and away from the injustices and
the suffering, the pain and the turbulence and the khadar of this
world. So this is the affair of the believer, Anja badly Helen
Bachman amazing is the state of the believer. And the believers
that Alia la hoffen Ali him will love him yes or no. No fear comes
upon them neither do they grieve. Not fear the future that's in
Allah's hands and therefore, the future is good. Rama ardella,
correctness, appropriateness, rightness
and the past, also in his hands, and it can't be fixed. What's
gone, is gone. And we look forward, not to the outcome of our
actions which muddy inadequate distracted things, but onto the
one who has called himself or her murder, I mean, a criminal
acromion rabbit alanine, say May Allah subhanaw taala have mercy on
all of those who are taken back to him in this blessed month of
Ramadan, and accept all of their actions according to their best
intentions, and overlook everything that they did. That was
in violation of his command and his law and help us to be people
of sunnah and is to karma and rightness in sha Allah, in this
time of distraction and of confusion and fear. Baraka lofi
