All praise is due to Allah subhanahu wa taala. We praise Him, we seek His help, and we ask for his forgiveness. We once again thank and praise Allah subhanahu wa taala for allowing us to be gathered here today. To listen to the chutzpah in this drama. I asked Allah subhanahu wa taala to bless each and every one of us. And I asked Allah subhanahu wa taala to gather us like we are gathered here but in Jannah tool for DOS Amin.
Allah to Allah when he was creating
his creation, the first creation that Allah subhanho wa Taala was created was the pen.
And then he asked the pen to write and the pen wrote, Allah to Allah ordered the pen to write everything that will happen from that time until the day of judgment.
And that has been sealed. In the low hill mouthful the Preserved Tablet
in which it has there's a Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam where it is mentioned that that seal tablet was written 50,000 years before the creation of the heavens and the earth. That means in that tablet, about us is written.
Allah Tala has written about us.
When are we going to be born? What are we going to do? Our actions, our sustenance, our risk, when we're going to die, either we are going to Jana or Jahannam, it is all written
and that is the low hanging fruit.
Then in another another Hadith, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he said
that when a child is in the womb of the mother,
after 120 days, in the womb of the mother, an angel is sent to the womb, to the child in the womb. And and through Allah subhanahu wa taala the soul is breathed into that child. And Allah orders the angel to write four things.
One of them becomes very risky. Why am I telling you I'm telling you, I shall tell you No, sir, either. One of them is to write the risk, the sustenance the provisions that that person will have throughout his or her life. So the angel writes or rewrites from the local mafia writes it again what Allah Tala tells the angel to write everything that that person will do all the risk that they will get, because basically he was telling him everything that he will do. While Julie is live.
span How long will you live for worship or you know side and whether that person will be a good person or an evil person. So Allah to Allah orders the angel to right
now that we are alive, we are here, our hearts are beating Allah Allah has given us choice. Human beings all of us have choice, whether to do the right thing or to do the wrong thing. But whatever you choose, Allah to Allah already has the knowledge about it. Allah Tala already knows what you've chosen. And this is a belief that all of us have. It's from the six articles of faith, the last article and that is predetermination. Ocado will cover to believe that Allah Tala has been knowledge of everything that we do in the future, in the past, in the present whenever
and we need to solely have reliance in Allah. If we do the right thing, then we need to have reliance that Allah to Allah will not let us down. Allah to Allah will give us goodness, not only in this life, but in the earth era.
So all of us need to wholeheartedly believe that we are going to Jannah but in order to get there, we need to do our part in this life. So that Allah to Allah with that reliance, Allah to Allah will give us paradise.
So this week, we have been speaking about reliance. We have been speaking about relying upon Allah subhanho wa taala.
And we have learned to a dua with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he said Erica Nakata, whatever kill Allah Allah, tie your camel and have trust in Allah subhanahu wa taala. So every single Muslim, whether you're young, whether you're old, it doesn't matter. All of us need to have this in our hearts that we rely upon Allah subhanahu wa taala. And the only way you can have that in your heart is if you build a strong relationship with Allah.
If you truly believe that anything that happens in your life, good or bad, there are reasons for it, then there are good reasons for it, and inshallah Huhtala through that, you will see the success that will come later on in your life. Let's have a look at the life of the prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam
when he received prophethood, that 10 years or 13 years living in Mecca, was very, very hard on the Prophet SAW Salem. He witnessed some of his own companions being tortured to death.
He had to ask him companions to go to ever senior people wanted to kill the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
And then at the end of that 13 years, he was ordered to leave Makkah. Now for a lot of people when those things happen, you will think that's it, were defeated. That's it, we're gone. We haven't won.
But little did people know that if you have that reliance in Allah, Allah to Allah will grant you success. 10 years later, they were able to control the entire Mecca. Allah to Allah has reasons for the things that happens.
I remember another story that was told to me by someone of his daughter. He said one day, my daughter was with her grandmother. And they were going somewhere where they had to catch a bus. So they went to the bus station. And as they were going to the bus, the bus station, they realized the bus is already there. And they were running to the grandmother and the granddaughter. They're running to catch the bus. And as soon as they got to the bus station, the bus left.
And they were saddened about it, especially the grandmother, now we have to wait for another bus, it's gonna take so long, and obviously made them upset. But Subhanallah what happened, that that bus that they missed, ended up in an accident, that bus that they missed, ended up in an accident where some of them passed away.
Now there are things that happen in your life that look bad, but there are goodness behind that, that we may not understand. And that is why relying upon Allah to Allah, in good and bad is very vital as a belief in Islam in Islam. That that is a belief that each of us should have an order in order to get that we need to build that relationship with Allah subhanahu wa taala.
Let's look at the story
of how Allah Tala makes impossible things possible when you rely upon Allah.
The story of Ibrahim alayhis salam
after he destroyed
Only two idols and you know those that story.
Then the king ordered that Ibrahim Ali Salam was to be killed. He used to be put to death.
And what they decided to do was to have a huge pits of fire burning for days and days and days. So much so that he was said it was so hot that if a bird was to fly on quite a distance above it, that it would die because of the intense heat.
And you can only imagine how hot it would be Subhanallah it was so hot that they couldn't bring Ibrahim close to it to throw it to throw him in there. Because the people bringing him will also burn. So they decided to put Ibrahim Ali Salam on a catapult.
And as he was there, he was flown and he was flying in the air going straight into the fire. Gibreel alayhi salam came to him. And Gibreel alayhi salam, he said, Do you need any help? Do you need any support? Imagine if we were in that position, of course support us help us. We want to get saved from this. But what did Ibrahim Ali salaam he said he looked at the while he's in the end. He looked at the angel insert from you know, from you know, but then he said from Allah Yes. Has been Allah who when Yama was killed, he made the special dua that we should all know has been Allahu and Yamawaki or has been Allahu Allah Yamawaki. What does that mean sufficient for me or sufficient for
us is Allah and He is our best protector. He is our best protector. So we need to rely upon Allah in any difficulty. What happened to that fire? That fire is Allah subhanahu wa taala says in the Quran, that fire became burdened with Solomon, it became cool and peaceful on Ibrahim.
So much so that later on it was asked to Ibrahim, what was your best moments on Earth? He would say that it was the time when I spent in the fire. It was so peaceful. It was beautiful. And then he came out of that fire without a scratch. And that was a miracle that Allah Tala performed for him and everyone else to see that that fire did not do and Ibrahim, Allah to Allah makes the impossible possible. When you rely upon Allah to Allah.
Another incident
in the life of Musa alayhis salam.
Now we know that fit our own and his army were chasing Musa Ali Salaam and the Muslims. They came to the Red Sea and they were cornered.
They didn't know where to go behind them was frown and his arm in front of them was the sea. So that's it. They could have died. And a lot of the Muslims at the time they started to blame musalla he said I'm saying look, because of you now we're going to die.
But what did Allah Allah tell Musa to do? Allah to Allah told Musa pick up that stick that you carry? Hit the water with the stick? And Allah Allah made the impossible possible, the seas split.
And in between that Musa alayhis salam and his followers were able to go through the other side. Allah Tala made the sea split in the hands of Musa alayhis salam, and the Muslims were saved. And we know the story that Iran and his army went to catch Musa alayhis salam, but they were drowned. So Allah subhanahu wa taala when we rely upon him, when we do our part, you will see how Allah Tala favors His servants and how Allah to Allah helps and supports his servants. So we asked Allah subhanahu wa taala to give us in that in our hearts the reliance of Allah subhanahu wa taala Akula Kali Heather was still for Allah Allah.

in Al hamdu lillah wa salatu salam ala Nabina Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi wa seldom at the Sleeman Kathira a Madonna
as per the hadith of this week, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he said, Here kill Nakatsuka what's the word kill Allah, tie your camel and have trust in Allah. Allah to Allah wants us to do our part.
Don't be the person who sits back and relaxes and thinks that Allah to Allah will help him that is not telecoil that is not real reliance. Real Tawakkol is when a person does his part, whatever he or she can do, and then leaves the
rests in the hands of Allah subhanahu wa taala. Almighty Allah who generates a hadith, where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he said Tawakkol is like, or the example of Tilak cool is like a bird, when it wakes up in the morning, when the bird wakes up in the morning, the bird is hungry.
And then it just doesn't sit in the nest the whole day and expect the food to come to it. No, the bird has to leave the nest, and it goes flying around looking for whatever the bird eats on the ground, on the trees, wherever it is, the whole day the bird is flying around and finding provisions that Allah Tala has provided for it, but he has to or the bird has to do its job, then the bird comes back in the afternoon, at Maverick time, you will notice during Maghrib time the birds are going back to the trees, and they're going to go to sleep, when they go back to the trees, the bellies are full. That is the workload that you do your part and leave the rest in the hands of
Allah subhanahu wa, that is true to our code. So we need to do our part. Don't expect the next two weeks of your examinations. Don't expect that I'm going to do great in my exams, while I'm sitting down relaxing, playing Playstation or Xbox. And you know what, I'm going to get great marks in my exam. Don't do that. That's not true reliance. But true reliance upon Allah is when you spend his time, revising, studying, going through your notes, writing down your summary notes, going through all of that revision, and doing what everything that you could do to gain good marks in your exam. And then coming to the exam venue, and having that trust in a lotta odd. That is true to our code.
So we need to train ourselves to do that. Like the teachers that everyone who works anywhere your parents who are probably running a business or working, how do you get the food on that table, the shelter the house, that you're living in the car that your parents are driving, or for the 12 the car that you're driving, think about how all that comes about. It's through hard work, dedication and effort. And then Allah Tala provides the sustenance for you, that is for you, you see the fruits of what you have done. So lastly, if you want paradise, if I want paradise, don't expect paradise to come with me sitting down and doing nothing for it. Paradise will not come like that. But Paradise
will come through hard work, dedication, making sure you are worshipping Allah subhanahu wa taala the best of your ability, making sure you fulfill all the obligations, staying away from the prohibitions. And then you put your reliance in Allah Allah Ya Allah, I have done what I could do. Yes, he wasn't perfect, but I am not perfect. Humans are not perfect. We make mistakes, but I have done my best. And then leaving the rest in the hands of Allah, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he said to his companions, that you will not enter Paradise because of your deeds. It is because of the Mercy of Allah. This the Sahaba so shocked. They said, even you Yatta suit Allah. He
said, even me, I'm not going to enter Paradise because of my deeds. But because of the Mercy of Allah. That does not mean I'm not going to do well. If you do well, through the mercy of Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah will give you paradise. Because Jana is hard to get to. Jana is very hard to get to imagine this. I'll give you an example. Let's say one of you, or myself or anyone wants to buy the most expensive car, let's say it's worth $3 million. Now, no one just has $3 million in the bank account. Otherwise, unless you're very rich, right, but let's say I want it. I've been trying hard to get it. I've been trying to save some money, but I couldn't even get close to it because of how
expensive it is. And someone out there notice that I've been trying I've been trying I've been trying, but I can't buy it. That person. He may be so rich, he may even own one. Because of him saying that I've been trying he may come up to me and say listen, you know what, I know you've been trying a lot to get the to get this car. And you know, I own it. You know what, I'm gonna give it to you. You can have it. You've been trying so hard. All right, I'm gonna give it to you. All right. If you can understand that, then click it to Jana. No matter what you do. It's not enough to get it. But you have to keep on trying and then rely that Allah Tala through His mercy, you will achieve
paradise. That is how we're going to achieve paradise. So if we want the highest of paradise, keep on striving
You keep on doing well and rely that Allah to Allah will make this life good for you and the earth set up for success for all of us. We ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to grant us all * the results are you by the Love in Mala Mala if
