Nana do who understand you know when I stopped at all when I was a biller him and surely unforeseen our means a yachtie I'm Melina Maya De La Villa medulla, or my uterus Allahu Allah, or shadow La ilaha illallah wa The whole luxury color wash. I don't know Muhammad Abdul Hora solo
verily, All Praise and thanks belongs to Allah subhanho wa taala. We praise them we praise Him and we seek his assistance. And we seek Allah's forgiveness. And we seek refuge and Allah from the evil that is within our souls, and from the evil that results from our evil deeds.
Whomsoever Allah subhanho wa Taala guide, naturalness guide them, and whoever Allah subhanaw taala allows to be led astray, none shall be guided back to the straight path, a bear witness that there's no God worthy of worship except Allah. And I bear witness that Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is his final messenger.
The man one time came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
And he asked the professor Salam,
a very simple but important question.
And he said messenger of Allah
who are the most beloved people to Allah subhanaw taala
who does Allah subhanaw taala love the most?
And what deeds are most beloved to Allah subhanahu wata Allah.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam remarked the Hepburn nurse eel Allah and Pharaoh homeliness, the most beloved people to Allah subhanho wa Taala are those who are the most helpful to other individuals.
Well, I have family Illa so rune to the fellow who Allah muslim, and the best deeds in the eyes of Allah subhanho wa Taala is for a person to bring happiness into the hearts of other people.
Oh,
Tech shuffle I know who CUDA or it is that you would remove a hardship from someone something that causes them distress.
Oh, definitely and who Danan I'll talk to and who Juha, or perhaps you help them with paying a debt, settling a debt forgiving their debt, or to remove the hunger that is within their stomach. Right? They're hungry and so you feed them?
Well, I'm sure Mahi if you heard you get in a habit you lay in an attic, even if he had a masjid or Shahara. That perhaps if I was to walk with my brother, and be of assistance, and to help them fulfill the need that they so desperately need, that is more beloved to me, the person centered and saying that is better to me, than if I was to remain secluded.
There at Dickov ritual seclusion, thinking, and doing data and worship Allah for a whole month in the masjid of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
But other than and sisters, this idea of helping others is not something that is new. We know of the importance of helping other other individuals.
And we couldn't possibly say that Seurat will answer is the surah that we can say almost every Muslim on this planet knows of. I've hardly met a single person who doesn't know sort of the muscle. And most of the time, this surah when people explain and talk about sort of philosophy, they're talking about the importance of time, they're talking about don't waste time, et cetera. However, I would like for you to look at this sutra from a different paradigm,
a paradigm that explicates this point that we are talking about here, and that is to help other people. What does Allah subhanho wa Taala say? Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim we're lost in in Santa Fe host Illa Latina Amma No, I'm so sorry, had what was what will hack what was always sober.
And by time, Allah subhanaw taala swears by time itself. Verily humans are at loss. Plus, in all aspects love you because in every sense.
Except for those who believe and do good deeds,
and they enjoying truth on others, and they enjoying patience with others. If you look at this last section here, in the Lilina, Armineh, one or saleha, except those who believe in do good deeds, the scholars have said that this pertains to doing what is beneficial to yourself,
to believe and to do good deeds, that pertains to helping yourself to spend your time wisely to do what is good for your life.
And as for the last part, what our soul Bill hack what was on the server, and to enjoin truth upon others, to tell people to do good, what I was told this summer and to enjoy patients and encourage others to do to practice patience. This is the example of being helpful to others. And if you look at these two examples, that the Quran here highlights to also Bill Huck to enjoin others upon truth, it's not easy to enjoin truth upon others, it takes courage, it takes a lot of strength, and it sometimes it will ruffle feathers.
What was or will have to be what was on the sub and to enjoin patients on others. This requires empathy.
When you listen to someone going through difficulty, a lot of times we are programmed from the way how we are brought up then when we hear other people in pain, we say things like, when in a way Yumna and when I was growing up, this happened to me and this what you have is nothing compared to what I have on Allah. We love we are all participants in oppression Olympics.
We love to sit and compare. But no, no, no, but your pain was not as much as my pain. And then another person will jump in and compare.
being empathetic
and understanding the risks that it takes for one to speak the truth to enjoying the good.
That is of benefit.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says in the beautiful Hadith,
that in Allah or in le la excuse me
halacha hombre Hawa eg nurse, you have certain
So you lay him fie Hawa eg him. Hola. You know and I mean other than LA Oberon the prophets are selling themselves that Verily Allah subhanahu wata Allah has among his creation, certain people who were created to help others.
And when people are in distress, they likely come to these individuals to seek assistance. Those people who give assistance to others, they will be the ones who will be saved from the punishment of Allah subhanahu Bucha Allah May Allah save us Apolo Valhalla, sobre la

being of assistance to other people,
is a great blessing that Allah subhanho wa Taala sometimes puts you in that specific position. That time when you meet someone or you hear of someone in need, that Allah is trying to have to Allah places you into their life directly in their path. And it is up to you to decide, are you going to be a person of assistance? Or are you going to be simply an obstacle?
Are you going to be an instrument of good to open doors for others? Or are you simply going to be the one that shuts the door on other individuals?
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam listen to this beautiful Hadith the Prophet SAW Selim says in synonyms magia he says.
And Allah He cousin in Fady was Shara verily belongs Everything belongs to Allah subhanaw taala the treasures of all the good you can think of all the bounties belongs to Allah and as well as all the difficulties and hardship and evil as Allah has created both

So the Prophet SAW Selim says Glad Tidings are to those individuals who become the keys the openers for other people for goodness, and they shut the doors of evil and prevent them from harming others. And woe to those who are simply openers and instruments

Brothers and sisters, helping others is as simple as the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam as narrated and tell me the one he says in a hadith men men are hot many hot 11 A wedding Oh herder zu Kopan can Allahu Missler Attica Raka. The Prophet sallallahu Sallam says in this beautiful Hadith, whoever is to give a needy person,
a sheep, a goat, or you might be wondering sheep or goat for what whether it is milk, whether it's wool, whether it's meat, etc. Or it gives them what to give them money, silver, or to guide them ohada Sukhov and to guide someone on the path someone is lost, you give them some directions, it is as equal as to freeing a slave. We ask Allah subhanahu wa taala to give us no fee if we ask Allah Subhana Allah to make us among those who are instruments of righteousness, the tools and keys to goodness and to help others achieve their success in Allah Allah Equateur who is saloon Alan Levy, yeah, you're Lydia um and also Louella he was selling motor cinema Allahumma Salli wa Sallim wa
