All praise is due to Allah subhanahu wa

00:01:21 --> 00:01:21

ta'ala.

00:01:22 --> 00:01:23

We praise him,

00:01:23 --> 00:01:26

we seek his help, and we ask for

00:01:26 --> 00:01:27

his forgiveness.

00:01:28 --> 00:01:31

We praise and thank Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:01:31 --> 00:01:34

for once again allowing us all to be

00:01:34 --> 00:01:35

gathered here today

00:01:36 --> 00:01:37

to perform the salatuljumu'ah.

00:01:38 --> 00:01:40

I ask Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:01:41 --> 00:01:42

to bless each and every one of us,

00:01:42 --> 00:01:43

and I ask Allah

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47

to gather us like we are gathered here,

00:01:49 --> 00:01:49

but in.

00:01:50 --> 00:01:50

Amen.

00:01:51 --> 00:01:52

As you know, the

00:01:53 --> 00:01:55

theme of this week is

00:01:57 --> 00:02:00

good character of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa

00:02:00 --> 00:02:00

sallam

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

and following his examples.

00:02:04 --> 00:02:07

And I'm sure that you have learned many

00:02:07 --> 00:02:08

of the characteristics

00:02:09 --> 00:02:10

of the prophet sallallahu

00:02:11 --> 00:02:12

alaihi wa sallam.

00:02:13 --> 00:02:15

And if I ask every single one of

00:02:15 --> 00:02:15

us here,

00:02:16 --> 00:02:18

do you love the prophet?

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

Everyone will say yes.

00:02:20 --> 00:02:21

None of us here will say no.

00:02:22 --> 00:02:24

We all want to be just like him.

00:02:26 --> 00:02:28

And there is a story that I want

00:02:28 --> 00:02:29

to share with you

00:02:30 --> 00:02:30

about

00:02:30 --> 00:02:31

a young man

00:02:32 --> 00:02:33

who wanted to

00:02:34 --> 00:02:35

see the prophet sallallahu

00:02:36 --> 00:02:37

alaihi wasallam

00:02:37 --> 00:02:38

in his dream.

00:02:40 --> 00:02:42

He and this is a story told to

00:02:42 --> 00:02:43

us by the pious predecessors.

00:02:44 --> 00:02:46

So he had an Ustad, a teacher

00:02:47 --> 00:02:49

that he would regularly go, sit with him,

00:02:50 --> 00:02:51

you know, he would learn from him and

00:02:51 --> 00:02:52

so on.

00:02:53 --> 00:02:55

And one day he went to his teacher

00:02:55 --> 00:02:56

and he said

00:02:56 --> 00:02:57

that

00:02:58 --> 00:02:59

I heard that when you see the prophet

00:02:59 --> 00:03:02

sallallahu alaihi wa sallam in your dream,

00:03:04 --> 00:03:07

the vision of that prophet that you see,

00:03:07 --> 00:03:10

that is exactly what he looks like. Shaitan

00:03:10 --> 00:03:11

cannot change

00:03:11 --> 00:03:13

the appearance of the prophet in the dreams

00:03:13 --> 00:03:14

of people.

00:03:15 --> 00:03:17

So the sheikh said, yes, that is true.

00:03:17 --> 00:03:19

If you are fortunate enough to see the

00:03:19 --> 00:03:21

prophet in your dream, then that is what

00:03:21 --> 00:03:22

he looks like.

00:03:23 --> 00:03:24

So

00:03:24 --> 00:03:27

every day, you know, he tried, every time

00:03:27 --> 00:03:28

he went to sleep he hoped to see

00:03:28 --> 00:03:30

the prophet in his dream,

00:03:30 --> 00:03:32

but he wasn't seeing the prophet.

00:03:33 --> 00:03:35

And then he came to his Sheikh and

00:03:35 --> 00:03:37

he said, you know, I I want to

00:03:37 --> 00:03:39

see him but I don't see him in

00:03:39 --> 00:03:40

my dream.

00:03:40 --> 00:03:41

What can I do?

00:03:42 --> 00:03:44

So the sheikh said to him, tonight come

00:03:44 --> 00:03:46

over my house for dinner.

00:03:47 --> 00:03:48

And he said, okay. I will I will

00:03:48 --> 00:03:51

do so. And the sheikh told him that

00:03:51 --> 00:03:53

I want you to also stay at my

00:03:53 --> 00:03:55

house. And he said, okay.

00:03:55 --> 00:03:56

So

00:03:56 --> 00:03:58

that night he went to the house of

00:03:58 --> 00:04:00

the sheikh and the sheikh told his wife

00:04:00 --> 00:04:02

to make a nice meal

00:04:02 --> 00:04:04

but make the meal very salty.

00:04:05 --> 00:04:07

Make the food very, very salty

00:04:07 --> 00:04:09

and don't give any water.

00:04:10 --> 00:04:11

So the wife said, okay. And she cooked

00:04:11 --> 00:04:13

a meal, made it very salty,

00:04:13 --> 00:04:14

and

00:04:14 --> 00:04:15

this student came,

00:04:16 --> 00:04:18

this young man, he came, and then the

00:04:18 --> 00:04:20

chef, the young man that had a meal,

00:04:21 --> 00:04:23

and the chef gave him the meal to

00:04:23 --> 00:04:25

eat. And he had the food, he had

00:04:25 --> 00:04:26

the meal,

00:04:26 --> 00:04:28

and he was very salty.

00:04:28 --> 00:04:30

And, of course, when the food is salty,

00:04:30 --> 00:04:32

you feel like drinking water.

00:04:32 --> 00:04:35

But water was not given to this person.

00:04:36 --> 00:04:38

And out of, you know, he had a

00:04:38 --> 00:04:41

lot of, respect towards the Sheikh, he never

00:04:41 --> 00:04:42

asked for any water.

00:04:43 --> 00:04:45

So later on that night, you know, just

00:04:45 --> 00:04:47

about, you know, before he fell asleep, he

00:04:47 --> 00:04:50

was really thirsty, but there was no way

00:04:50 --> 00:04:51

to go and ask for water. I mean,

00:04:51 --> 00:04:52

it's not like you can go open the

00:04:52 --> 00:04:54

tap and drink water. It was back in

00:04:54 --> 00:04:55

those days.

00:04:56 --> 00:04:57

So he thought, okay. You know what? I'll

00:04:57 --> 00:04:59

fall asleep without drinking any water.

00:05:00 --> 00:05:02

So then the next morning,

00:05:02 --> 00:05:04

the sheikh spoke to the student and said,

00:05:04 --> 00:05:06

did you see the dream?

00:05:06 --> 00:05:07

And he said,

00:05:08 --> 00:05:09

no. I I didn't see the dream of

00:05:09 --> 00:05:12

the prophet. You know, I thought maybe tonight

00:05:12 --> 00:05:13

I will, but I didn't.

00:05:14 --> 00:05:15

And then the sheikh asked him, what did

00:05:15 --> 00:05:16

you dream about?

00:05:17 --> 00:05:19

He said, I dreamt, you know, there was

00:05:19 --> 00:05:22

a a river, a flowing river, some waterfall

00:05:22 --> 00:05:24

and so on and so forth.

00:05:24 --> 00:05:26

Then the sheikh gave him a lesson and

00:05:26 --> 00:05:28

said, do you know why you were dreaming

00:05:28 --> 00:05:30

about water? He said, why? He said, because

00:05:30 --> 00:05:32

I purposely gave you a meal

00:05:32 --> 00:05:35

that was so salty that the entire night

00:05:35 --> 00:05:38

you were just thinking about water, that you

00:05:38 --> 00:05:40

need to drink water. And that night that

00:05:40 --> 00:05:42

you fell asleep, you were dreaming about water.

00:05:43 --> 00:05:45

So if you truly want to see the

00:05:45 --> 00:05:48

messenger of Allah, sallallahu alaihi wasallam in your

00:05:48 --> 00:05:50

dream, then you have to live

00:05:51 --> 00:05:53

the life of following the sunnah of the

00:05:53 --> 00:05:56

prophet salallahu alaihi wa sallam, loving the prophet,

00:05:56 --> 00:05:58

thinking about the prophet regularly,

00:05:58 --> 00:06:01

and definitely you will see the prophet sallallahu

00:06:01 --> 00:06:03

alaihi wasallam in your dream.

00:06:04 --> 00:06:05

So this is a story that has been

00:06:05 --> 00:06:07

told to us that if we truly want

00:06:07 --> 00:06:08

to see the prophet, then we need to

00:06:08 --> 00:06:09

love him.

00:06:09 --> 00:06:12

We need to follow his way. And even

00:06:12 --> 00:06:13

better than that

00:06:14 --> 00:06:17

is to be with the prophet sallallahu alaihi

00:06:17 --> 00:06:20

wasallam on the day of judgment. Imagine that.

00:06:20 --> 00:06:23

Imagine on the day of judgment, the prophet

00:06:23 --> 00:06:25

calls you towards him.

00:06:25 --> 00:06:27

I've been looking for you. Come. You're with

00:06:27 --> 00:06:30

me. How amazing would that be? And even

00:06:30 --> 00:06:31

better than that,

00:06:33 --> 00:06:36

seeing the face of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:06:36 --> 00:06:37

in paradise.

00:06:37 --> 00:06:39

That is the ultimate,

00:06:39 --> 00:06:42

ultimate, ultimate reward for a believer,

00:06:42 --> 00:06:44

to see the face of your creator

00:06:45 --> 00:06:48

on the day in in Jannah. How amazing

00:06:48 --> 00:06:49

would that be?

00:06:49 --> 00:06:51

So for this to all happen,

00:06:51 --> 00:06:53

we need to change our mindset, we need

00:06:53 --> 00:06:55

to change our heart.

00:06:55 --> 00:06:57

We need to make sure that we love

00:06:57 --> 00:07:00

the Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam as much as

00:07:00 --> 00:07:01

we can.

00:07:01 --> 00:07:04

The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, he said,

00:07:12 --> 00:07:14

The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam he said

00:07:15 --> 00:07:17

none of you truly believe

00:07:18 --> 00:07:21

until I am more beloved to him

00:07:21 --> 00:07:24

than his father, than his parents, than his

00:07:24 --> 00:07:24

children,

00:07:25 --> 00:07:26

and of all of mankind.

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29

The prophet said, I need to be more

00:07:29 --> 00:07:30

loved

00:07:30 --> 00:07:33

to you. You need to love me more

00:07:33 --> 00:07:35

so that we can taste the sweetness

00:07:35 --> 00:07:36

of faith.

00:07:37 --> 00:07:39

So we learn from this that if we

00:07:39 --> 00:07:42

love the messenger of Allah salallahu alaihi wasallam,

00:07:42 --> 00:07:44

it should not only be lip service.

00:07:45 --> 00:07:47

It should not only be saying that I

00:07:47 --> 00:07:49

love the messenger of Allah and that is

00:07:49 --> 00:07:51

it. We need to truly love him in

00:07:51 --> 00:07:54

the heart and when you love someone you

00:07:54 --> 00:07:56

will do things to show that love.

00:07:57 --> 00:07:59

I know it's hard because we haven't seen

00:07:59 --> 00:08:00

the messenger of Allah.

00:08:01 --> 00:08:02

We don't know what he looks like, he's

00:08:02 --> 00:08:03

not with us

00:08:04 --> 00:08:06

but his sunnah is alive

00:08:06 --> 00:08:08

and to show that love towards the messenger

00:08:08 --> 00:08:12

of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, we need to

00:08:12 --> 00:08:12

follow

00:08:13 --> 00:08:14

his sunnah

00:08:14 --> 00:08:17

and one hadith the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:08:17 --> 00:08:19

he said whoever actively

00:08:20 --> 00:08:20

observes

00:08:21 --> 00:08:22

my sunnah

00:08:22 --> 00:08:25

then he has loved me. And whoever loves

00:08:25 --> 00:08:28

me shall be with me in paradise.

00:08:29 --> 00:08:31

So how can we show our love

00:08:32 --> 00:08:35

towards the prophet salallahu alaihi wasallam? How can

00:08:35 --> 00:08:37

we express our love? Because as I said,

00:08:37 --> 00:08:39

it's not just lip service. So I'm gonna

00:08:39 --> 00:08:42

mention 4 things inshallah. Number 1,

00:08:43 --> 00:08:44

to show that love to the prophet

00:08:45 --> 00:08:46

you need to

00:08:46 --> 00:08:50

accept that he is your perfect role model.

00:08:51 --> 00:08:53

You need to accept that he is my

00:08:53 --> 00:08:54

ultimate role model.

00:08:55 --> 00:08:57

Now I know a lot of us, we

00:08:57 --> 00:08:59

see other people around us as role models,

00:08:59 --> 00:09:00

and that's great. Absolutely

00:09:01 --> 00:09:03

fine. If they bring benefit to you, you

00:09:03 --> 00:09:04

want to be just like them.

00:09:05 --> 00:09:07

And sometimes we follow people that may not

00:09:07 --> 00:09:09

bring any benefit to you, but you take

00:09:09 --> 00:09:10

them as a role model, and you want

00:09:10 --> 00:09:12

to do things like them.

00:09:12 --> 00:09:14

You know, probably a classic example and I'm

00:09:14 --> 00:09:16

sure all of you can relate to this.

00:09:16 --> 00:09:18

You know when a person is playing soccer

00:09:18 --> 00:09:20

and he scores a goal

00:09:20 --> 00:09:23

sometimes the celebration of the goal is just

00:09:23 --> 00:09:24

like Ronaldo.

00:09:24 --> 00:09:26

Everyone is doing that. So many people are

00:09:26 --> 00:09:29

doing that. That's because people see him as

00:09:29 --> 00:09:31

a role model and it's exciting.

00:09:31 --> 00:09:33

Right? And everyone knows how famous he is,

00:09:33 --> 00:09:34

and we all accept that. We all know

00:09:34 --> 00:09:35

that.

00:09:35 --> 00:09:38

But imagine now living your life

00:09:38 --> 00:09:40

just like how the prophet salallahu alaihi wa

00:09:40 --> 00:09:41

sallam lived.

00:09:42 --> 00:09:44

Following his way, his example,

00:09:44 --> 00:09:46

doing the exact same things that he did.

00:09:47 --> 00:09:49

How amazing would that be? Does Ronaldo know

00:09:49 --> 00:09:51

you? No. But does the prophet sallallahu alaihi

00:09:51 --> 00:09:53

wa sallam know us? Yes. He will be

00:09:53 --> 00:09:55

looking for us on the day of judgement.

00:09:56 --> 00:09:58

How amazing would that be? So to accept

00:09:58 --> 00:10:01

that the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:10:01 --> 00:10:02

is definitely

00:10:02 --> 00:10:05

our role model. I mentioned in the verse

00:10:05 --> 00:10:08

previously as I started my Khutbah, Allah subhanahu

00:10:08 --> 00:10:09

wa ta'ala says,

00:10:10 --> 00:10:10

indeed,

00:10:10 --> 00:10:12

in the Messenger of Allah,

00:10:13 --> 00:10:16

you have an excellent example. Allah is saying,

00:10:16 --> 00:10:19

he is your excellent example.

00:10:19 --> 00:10:21

For whoever has hope in Allah

00:10:22 --> 00:10:24

and the last day and remember him often

00:10:25 --> 00:10:28

should follow him, meaning the prophet sallallahu

00:10:28 --> 00:10:29

alaihi wasallam.

00:10:36 --> 00:10:37

So this is something that we need to

00:10:37 --> 00:10:38

do. Our mindset

00:10:39 --> 00:10:42

needs to change. Our first role model is

00:10:42 --> 00:10:45

the messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. He

00:10:45 --> 00:10:47

is the one that I'm gonna look up

00:10:47 --> 00:10:48

to. He is the one that I'm going

00:10:48 --> 00:10:50

to be like. Number 2,

00:10:50 --> 00:10:52

and of course stemming from that,

00:10:52 --> 00:10:55

following his beautiful footsteps,

00:10:55 --> 00:10:57

following his sunnah.

00:10:58 --> 00:10:59

The prophet

00:11:01 --> 00:11:02

said as the haditha we have studied,

00:11:07 --> 00:11:07

The prophet

00:11:09 --> 00:11:11

said, I have been sent to perfect

00:11:12 --> 00:11:12

good character

00:11:13 --> 00:11:15

and we know the prophet everything

00:11:17 --> 00:11:19

that he has done in his life

00:11:19 --> 00:11:20

was always good, subhanAllah.

00:11:21 --> 00:11:23

So if we want to be a good

00:11:23 --> 00:11:24

Muslim,

00:11:24 --> 00:11:27

a person who Allah Ta'ala loves, then the

00:11:27 --> 00:11:29

prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam

00:11:30 --> 00:11:32

is our role model that we want to

00:11:32 --> 00:11:34

follow, that we want to be like.

00:11:35 --> 00:11:36

So follow his footsteps,

00:11:37 --> 00:11:40

follow his sunnah. And I always say and

00:11:40 --> 00:11:42

I'm gonna continue saying this, many of us,

00:11:43 --> 00:11:46

we don't fulfill the sunnah because it's only

00:11:46 --> 00:11:46

sunnah.

00:11:47 --> 00:11:49

We have this in our in our mind

00:11:49 --> 00:11:52

that because it's sunnah, I'm not getting sin

00:11:52 --> 00:11:53

for it, so I'm not going to pray

00:11:53 --> 00:11:55

my sunnah. I'm not going to do this,

00:11:55 --> 00:11:56

I'm not going to do that. But if

00:11:56 --> 00:11:59

you truly love the messenger of Allah, if

00:11:59 --> 00:12:00

you truly want to be with him on

00:12:00 --> 00:12:03

the day of judgement, you will follow that

00:12:03 --> 00:12:04

sunnah because it's a sunnah.

00:12:05 --> 00:12:07

You know the sahabas when they would travel

00:12:08 --> 00:12:10

and they knew the prophet would travel,

00:12:10 --> 00:12:12

if they knew that the prophet sat under

00:12:12 --> 00:12:14

a certain tree for no reason at all,

00:12:14 --> 00:12:16

maybe he was resting, they would actually do

00:12:16 --> 00:12:18

that. They would say, hey, I'm sitting here

00:12:18 --> 00:12:21

because the prophet sat here. No other reason.

00:12:21 --> 00:12:23

They would even go to that extent and

00:12:23 --> 00:12:26

sit down under a certain tree because the

00:12:26 --> 00:12:28

prophet sat down under that tree. SubhanAllah.

00:12:28 --> 00:12:30

They went to that extent

00:12:30 --> 00:12:32

because of that love for the messenger of

00:12:32 --> 00:12:33

Allah sallallahu

00:12:34 --> 00:12:36

alaihi wasallam. And that is something that we

00:12:36 --> 00:12:39

definitely need to have inshallah. We will continue

00:12:39 --> 00:12:39

in the next.

00:13:04 --> 00:13:05

Number 3,

00:13:06 --> 00:13:08

the third way to show our love to

00:13:08 --> 00:13:08

the prophet

00:13:10 --> 00:13:14

is sending our peace and blessings upon him.

00:13:14 --> 00:13:16

You see how many times I said, Muhammad

00:13:18 --> 00:13:20

One of the ways to show you truly

00:13:20 --> 00:13:24

love him, by saying Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. Whenever

00:13:24 --> 00:13:27

you hear his name, your heart should shake.

00:13:27 --> 00:13:29

Your heart should shake with the love of

00:13:29 --> 00:13:31

the messenger and immediately your mind should tell

00:13:31 --> 00:13:35

you, say salallahu alayhi wasallam. You're sending peace

00:13:35 --> 00:13:37

and blessings upon the prophet

00:13:38 --> 00:13:40

Every time you sit down, and I want

00:13:40 --> 00:13:42

you to remember, when you sit for the

00:13:42 --> 00:13:42

shahood,

00:13:43 --> 00:13:45

when you're sitting in the sitting position of

00:13:45 --> 00:13:47

the prayer and you recite you're reciting

00:13:48 --> 00:13:50

until the end, and then you say

00:14:08 --> 00:14:09

This is selling,

00:14:09 --> 00:14:10

sending your peace

00:14:11 --> 00:14:13

and your blessings upon the Prophet Sallallahu

00:14:14 --> 00:14:17

Alaihi Wasallam. And how beautiful is that? The

00:14:17 --> 00:14:19

one who does this, then insha'Allah on the

00:14:19 --> 00:14:22

day of judgement, the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam

00:14:22 --> 00:14:25

will be there with us, finding us, calling

00:14:25 --> 00:14:28

us with him. Because you remembered him here,

00:14:28 --> 00:14:31

he will remember you on the day of

00:14:31 --> 00:14:33

judgement. So send salutations,

00:14:33 --> 00:14:36

send your blessings upon the prophet sallallahu alaihi

00:14:36 --> 00:14:37

wasallam. And finally,

00:14:38 --> 00:14:40

this is for me one of the greatest

00:14:40 --> 00:14:42

things that we can do. If you truly

00:14:42 --> 00:14:44

love the messenger of Allah and you want

00:14:44 --> 00:14:46

to show that love and you want to

00:14:46 --> 00:14:47

follow him,

00:14:48 --> 00:14:51

then read about the prophet's life.

00:14:51 --> 00:14:53

If you don't like to read,

00:14:53 --> 00:14:56

then listen to the prophet's life. There are

00:14:56 --> 00:14:59

so many different books about his life. There

00:14:59 --> 00:15:01

are so many different, you know, sheikhs who

00:15:01 --> 00:15:02

have

00:15:02 --> 00:15:05

spoken about the life of the Prophet Sallallahu

00:15:05 --> 00:15:07

Alaihi Wasallam. One of the things and I've

00:15:07 --> 00:15:09

shared this with many of you before,

00:15:10 --> 00:15:12

SubhanAllah when I the the the day I

00:15:12 --> 00:15:14

got married my father-in-law

00:15:14 --> 00:15:15

he gave me a gift

00:15:16 --> 00:15:18

and I still remember this gift, it's an

00:15:18 --> 00:15:19

amazing gift.

00:15:19 --> 00:15:22

He gave me an ipod at that time

00:15:22 --> 00:15:24

and in that ipod there were lectures

00:15:25 --> 00:15:26

of a certain sheikh

00:15:27 --> 00:15:30

that spoke about the entire life of the

00:15:30 --> 00:15:33

prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam. The Makkan period, the

00:15:33 --> 00:15:36

Madina period. He also spoke about the lives

00:15:36 --> 00:15:38

of the prophets that came before and there

00:15:38 --> 00:15:42

were lectures about so many of the sahabas,

00:15:42 --> 00:15:45

the entire Omar series, the entire Abu Bakr

00:15:45 --> 00:15:48

series. There were so many lectures and I

00:15:48 --> 00:15:49

was hooked.

00:15:49 --> 00:15:51

I loved it. Every time I was in

00:15:51 --> 00:15:53

the car I would listen to it. Every

00:15:53 --> 00:15:54

time I was at home as well in

00:15:54 --> 00:15:56

my free time I would listen to it.

00:15:56 --> 00:15:58

And when you listen to these stories

00:15:59 --> 00:16:01

it shakes your heart and you want to

00:16:01 --> 00:16:04

be just like them. And trust me when

00:16:04 --> 00:16:05

I say this, any movies that you have

00:16:05 --> 00:16:08

seen that inspired you, any stories you may

00:16:08 --> 00:16:10

have read in a novel,

00:16:10 --> 00:16:13

nothing beats the stories of the prophet sallallahu

00:16:13 --> 00:16:15

alaihi wasallam. Nothing beats the stories of the

00:16:15 --> 00:16:16

sahabas.

00:16:16 --> 00:16:18

Nothing beats the stories of the prophets that

00:16:18 --> 00:16:19

came before.

00:16:19 --> 00:16:21

When you read about them,

00:16:21 --> 00:16:24

something happens in your heart and you want

00:16:24 --> 00:16:27

to be just like them. Imagine that love,

00:16:27 --> 00:16:30

that shows true love and when you follow

00:16:30 --> 00:16:32

their way it just shows Allah subhanahu wa

00:16:32 --> 00:16:35

ta'ala through your sincere intention that you want

00:16:35 --> 00:16:36

to be with them on the day of

00:16:36 --> 00:16:39

judgement. So our thoughts should be the akhirah,

00:16:39 --> 00:16:41

that you Allah, I want to be with

00:16:41 --> 00:16:43

them on the day of judgement. Imagine

00:16:44 --> 00:16:47

sitting in Jannah, in your beautiful place, and

00:16:47 --> 00:16:49

then you get a call from the prophet

00:16:49 --> 00:16:51

saying come hang out with me. Let's go

00:16:51 --> 00:16:54

together. Let's go somewhere. How beautiful would that

00:16:54 --> 00:16:57

be? But to experience that, to get that,

00:16:57 --> 00:16:59

today, while we are alive, we need to

00:16:59 --> 00:17:01

love the prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam,

00:17:02 --> 00:17:03

follow his examples,

00:17:03 --> 00:17:05

be just like him, and we will see

00:17:05 --> 00:17:07

inshallah that we will be with him on

00:17:07 --> 00:17:09

the day of judgement. We ask Allah subhanahu

00:17:09 --> 00:17:12

wa ta'ala to make us truly love the

00:17:12 --> 00:17:14

messenger of Allah salallahu alayhi wa sallam. Say,

00:17:14 --> 00:17:16

amen. Amen. And we ask Allah subhanahu wa

00:17:16 --> 00:17:17

ta'ala

00:17:18 --> 00:17:19

to make us all be with him on

00:17:19 --> 00:17:21

the day of judgement. Say, amen. Amen.

00:17:22 --> 00:17:24

Also, you probably have heard there has been

00:17:24 --> 00:17:24

a brother,

00:17:25 --> 00:17:27

I think a relative of one of our

00:17:27 --> 00:17:28

students here at our school.

00:17:29 --> 00:17:32

Unfortunately while he was playing soccer one day,

00:17:32 --> 00:17:34

he had a heart attack

00:17:34 --> 00:17:36

and he is in coma at the moment,

00:17:36 --> 00:17:39

subhanAllah, so they the request is to make

00:17:39 --> 00:17:42

sincere dua for him. To make sincere dua

00:17:42 --> 00:17:44

for him, for Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala to

00:17:44 --> 00:17:46

give him a speedy recovery, say,

00:18:46 --> 00:18:47

Please stand up. Make your
