			insha Allah continuing with our series here in the month of Ramadan, paths to peace where we look at
the ayat of the Quran that talks about the concept of peace and tranquility and serenity and how we
can attain more of that within our lives. Today, we're once again going to talk about a very central
foundational verse of the Quran in regards to the topic of peace and tranquility. And that is from
surah number 33 Surah Zab is number 56. This is an idea that we are very familiar with we hear all
the time, noted most notably in the sermon in the hood of Joomla. A Friday. Allah subhanaw taala
says in this idea in Allah wa Mala, it gets a who you Soluna Allah Nebby Yeah, you Halina Amanu
		

			Sallu Allah He was selling water sliema
		

			Allah subhanaw taala says the translation, that indeed, Allah and His angels, send blessings upon
the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam, so you believe, send blessings upon him, and send upon him the
greetings of peace and tranquility.
		

			Just to first understand exactly what Allah subhanaw taala is saying here to us in this ayah
		

			something very beautiful that even cathedra hum Allahu taala, he writes, and he points out here, he
says that Allah subhanaw taala first informs us, that Allah He Himself,
		

			since Peace and blessings upon the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		

			And then Allah tells us that the inhabitants of the heavens, the angels, they also send peace and
blessings upon the Prophet sallallaahu Salam. And then thirdly, Allah commands us, the inhabitants
of the earth, to also send peace and blessings upon him. And the result of all of that is that all
of all the creation, that whether it exists on the heavens and the earth, and even the Creator
Himself, every single thing in existence, every sentient being in existence, is recognizing the
status of the prophets, Allah the throne, honoring the Prophet sallahu Salam, and sending Peace and
blessings upon the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So it informs us of the status of the
		

			prophets Allah the salam and his rank.
		

			Now
		

			secondly,
		

			Allah has commanded us to send peace and blessings upon him. What does that exactly mean? How do we
exactly go about doing that? There was a conversation that is related by Mambo How do you know him
Allahu Taala that a companion of the prophets Allah to him and there's actually numerous such
companions, but one of them Gargan urged Radi Allahu Anhu. He actually asked the prophets Allah He
said, I'm Akela ya rasool Allah and Masada Malaika Allah for sending Salam upon you that is
something we are familiar with because it would greet the prophets Allah they sent them all the time
As salam o Allah rasool Allah
		

			forgive for Salah. What does it mean to send peace and blessings to send the blessings upon you? And
the prophets Allah they sent him that is when he taught them the Salawat that we recite within our
prayers. He said, Oh Lu say Allahumma Salli ala Muhammad, wa ala Ali Mohammed O Allah sent your
blessings upon Muhammad and upon all those affiliated with Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, his
family his followers, his OMA Kumar Selita Allah Ibrahim Allah Ali Ibrahim A inika Hamidah Majeed
just as you had sent your blessings upon Ibrahim alayhis salam, and upon all those associated and
affiliated with Ibrahim Ali Salam, and indeed you Oh ALLAH are deserving of all praise and you
		

			indeed Oh ALLAH are most most glorious and noble. So that is what the concept of sending Peace and
blessings upon the prophets Allah nation that's what it means to send the Salawat to upon him
whether it be in this more beautiful form, elaborate form that we read within the prayer Allahumma
Salli ala Muhammad wa ala Muhammad, what we call the rue de Brahimi Salawat
		

			Ebrahimi
		

			or there are many, many other forms of it very briefly and shortly as well, such as Allahumma Salli,
ala Muhammad are simply saying, uh Salatu was Salam, ala Rasulillah or sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
etc. Now, when we do incorporate this, now that we understand how to do it, what is the importance
and the significance of doing it? So, number one we've talked about that it's a command of Allah.
		

			Secondly, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam tells us that someone who hears my name being
mentioned, a believer, a Muslim, somebody who professes faith in Allah and says that they accept
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, as a messenger and the Prophet of Allah, and then the prophets,
Allah the Some said that that person cannot be troubled, cannot be moved to send peace and blessings
upon me to say four or five words and send peace and blessings upon me the prophets Allah they some
said, that is the most miserly, stingy person. That after everything the prophets, Allah Dixon did
for us, everything we have everything we know every blessing in our lives, our iman our faith, our
		

			understanding of Allah, we're understanding of this life, our understanding and knowledge and of how
to live this life, the idea of good and virtue, the understanding of what is bad and evil. All of it
came to us through the prophets, Allah the surah. This Quran that we are reading and reciting and
listening to, that we are entranced by mesmerized by this Quran came through the prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam one Zina la cathedra, we revealed it to you, oh, Muhammad salatu salam, so that you
may convey it to the people. So the prophets a lot, he said them has so much favor upon us. We owe
him so much that it can't be put into words.
		

			And we have been given this very succinct, simple, easy, yet profoundly beautiful way to be able to
appreciate him. And that is every single time we talk about him, we hear about him Mohamed, we will
say sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, we will send peace and blessings upon him. Something very beautiful
that some of the scholars have written is that you know, whenever we do a deed, we always wonder we
always worry is this deed accepted from me or not?
		

			Right? We worry about the acceptance of our deeds. We ask Allah we pray to Allah but not a couple
Mina in Nikka, answer semula Haleem. We ask Allah to accept our deeds. However, this is the one deed
that is guaranteed by Allah that it will always be accepted. And in reference to that, I wanted to
also briefly touch upon what are the virtues of sending Peace and blessings upon the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So I just made the comment that this is the one deed from us that is
always accepted from us, and that we will always be rewarded for that will always be accepted from
us. And there are numerous narrations that talk about the virtue of this remarkable deed.
		

			For instance, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he tells us that there's actually a narration
which in which the prophets Allah they said, um, says that Allah has said, Allah said to the
Prophet, salatu salam, mon sunnah Alagiah, so late to Allah He,
		

			whosoever will send blessings upon you, guaranteed Allah said, I will send my blessings upon him.
		

			Woman salam alayka, salam to Allah He and whoever will send peace of Peace upon you.
		

			Allah guarantees I will send Allah is saying he will send his peace upon them.
		

			The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he also informs us and tells us that in the olden Naseby
yarmulke Yama to Pharaoh Houma, Elijah Salatin, that the closest people to me to the prophets a lot
he said, on the day of resurrection will be the people who used to send the most Peace and blessings
upon me. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he said, Man salah, Allah whacky that and
sallallahu alayhi Ashura, that whoever sends Peace and blessings upon the prophets, Allah He said on
once, Allah will send His peace and blessings upon that person 10 times more.
		

			And that's why the Prophet sallallahu sallam said fun, you kill Ogden minha Oh, Leah Thor. So now
let every person decide whether they want a little bit of this in their lives. Or they want a lot of
the Peace and blessings from Allah within their lives. So there are so many narrations that talk
about the virtue of sending Peace and blessings upon the prophets, Allah the salam, but for the
purposes of our DIS
		

			question that we've been talking about here. So it suffices to say, that we have been talking about
how to acquire and how to gain more peace and tranquility and serenity within our lives. And here,
we are being given by Allah subhanaw taala and the Quran and the prophets Allah the sun was further
informing us of such a once again, a simple, easy, yet profoundly beautiful way that we can attain
so much more peace and tranquility and serenity and calmness within our lives. And that is to make
it a habit, and to abundantly Send peace and blessings upon the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
Allahumma Salli ala Muhammad wa ala Ali Muhammad May Allah subhanaw taala grant us the ability to
		

			appreciate the prophets Allah, the Sunnah, to love the prophets a lot easier to send peace and
blessings upon the prophets Allah. May Allah raised us on the Day of Judgment in the company of the
prophets, Allah. May Allah grant His nearness and closeness to the prophets, Allah Islam in the
Hereafter. And may Allah subhanaw taala make our relationship with the Prophets a lot as a means of
us achieving and acquiring peace and tranquility within our own lives. I mean, the Arab Allah Allah
mean Subhan Allah, who will be humbly he Subhana Colombi Hambrick Nisha to Allah ilaha illa Anta
nostoc Fuuka wanted to buoy lake. I just had a couple of announcements very quickly. One
		

			announcement that we had was a family that we know, reached out to us just a little bit earlier
today, informing us that
		

			brother Mustafa Ahmed and his entire family, they were in Omaha, and he passed away this morning in
Macomb, Macomb after completing his ombre May Allah subhanaw taala count him amongst the Shahada.
May Allah subhanaw taala grant him Jonathan for those who Allah and may Allah grant strength and
steadfastness to his family, I mean, you are blind. I mean, secondly hamdulillah tonight we have the
Leon program, the annual kind of big Kalam TM that we conduct all night long, where you'll get to
hear from all the different teachers and scholars here are alum. So inshallah we hope that you'll
stay and join us for that program. And then thirdly, as I kind of mentioned, and I won't spend too
		

			much time on this, but at the same time, these are the last few nights of the month of Ramadan. This
is an opportunity to do as much good as you can. And we encourage you, one of the ways to do good is
to invest into your sadaqa jariya. By supporting all the efforts that Balaam was making and
educating people all around the world. In sha Allah as you are here today, you'll see there's a
table set up in the lobby, stop by there, go to the website, donate contribute, may Allah subhanaw
taala accept from all of us. Does that mean lucky than somebody going after law?
