00:00:00 --> 00:00:01
			So this hadith is.
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:03
			It is
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:06
			a great hadith because it is showing
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:07
			the virtue
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:09
			of Allah
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			from the little that we do that he
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:13
			will do what with it?
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:15
			What will he do with it?
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:21
			He'll increase it. He will increase it. And
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			this can be analogous with what?
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:28
			Any other action of?
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:29
			Good.
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31
			But this in particular,
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:32
			generally, Allah
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:34
			has the capacity
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:36
			to increase one's
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:39
			reward from a good deed.
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:41
			Right? What did the apostle
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:45
			say?
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:47
			He said that a good deed can be
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:50
			up to 10 times that reward.
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:52
			Right? And even in the hadith, it can
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			even be even more than that.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:56
			What's one of the names of Allah subhanahu
		
00:00:56 --> 00:00:58
			wa ta'ala that is associated with what we're
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:00
			talking about now? What's one name?
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:05
			A shakur?
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			How? What does shakur mean in English?
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:16
			The appreciative one. Right? So what's the connection
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			of a shakur with this hadith?
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:21
			With you saying
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			100 times and his reward is a1000.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			And he appreciates the effort. And because you
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:32
			made the effort, what?
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:35
			He multiplies the reward. And there's a verse
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:36
			in the Quran with
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			Then Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said in your
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			lord proclaim that if you were to be
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:47
			thankful, that he will increase
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			you. Even though Allah is shakur, he is
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:54
			appreciative of the effort that you make. So
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:55
			your his appreciation
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:57
			for your appreciation
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:59
			will increase you
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:01
			in many ways that we don't know. He
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:03
			said, I will increase you. He didn't mention
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:04
			in what?
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:07
			He didn't mention in what?
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			Which also shows another name of Allah that
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:10
			Allah is.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13
			He is abundant and he gives in abundance
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:15
			how he wills. So the prophet
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:17
			is saying here, that one says,
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:20
			and he didn't mention
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:22
			where or particular
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:23
			time
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:25
			that the person says
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			100 times.
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			Right? They say it 100 times. Now is
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:32
			it that they have to say it all
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			in one sitting
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			or not Allahu Alam?
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:36
			This has been discussed.
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:37
			But if they
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			say when you get in your car,
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:42
			just while you're driving on the way to
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:44
			the Masjid. And why are you
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:44
			saying?
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:50
			And why are you saying? You're glorifying Allah,
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			and you start to think of glorious things
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:53
			in your life.
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:54
			And you
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:00
			say because you will receive 1,000. So when
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:00
			Allah
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			receives, gives you the reward.
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			Let's dip into this and then we'll conclude.
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:08
			When Allah gives you a reward, what's the
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:10
			manifestation of the reward?
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:13
			What how is it shown?
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			Allah says, I'll reward you. So if I
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			tell my son, I'll reward you for washing
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:19
			the car.
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:21
			I didn't mention the reward,
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:23
			but the most important thing is that the
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:25
			reward, because the reward expresses what?
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			Appreciation of the deed, but the reward
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:34
			How was it done?
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:36
			If I say I will I will reward
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:37
			you
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:39
			for washing the car,
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			you don't know what the reward will be.
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:43
			It may be money.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:45
			Right? It may be a car.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48
			It may be giving you the opportunity to
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:50
			drive the car for a week. You don't
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:51
			know what the reward will be, but it
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:52
			will be in your what?
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:56
			It will be in your fortune.
		
00:03:57 --> 00:03:58
			Right? Allow
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			compensation, it'll be in your fortune
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:02
			and something that you would want.
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:05
			Or and this is the this is the
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:06
			the deep part.
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			It may be it's something that you want
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:11
			and desire or maybe something that you need.
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:16
			And the beautiful part about that is you
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:19
			don't know how he will reward you. So
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:21
			we hear all these signs, Allah will reward
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22
			you for this, Allah. When you think about
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:25
			it, how how how will he reward me?
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27
			He didn't mention how.
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			He didn't mention the manifestation of his reward.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:33
			The manifestation can be relinquishment of a sin
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			that you've forgotten about. We talked about this.
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:37
			Right? And you're not held accountable on it
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:38
			on the day of judgement.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:40
			The relinquishment,
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:42
			the the reward could be a dua that
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:43
			was answered.
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:46
			The reward could be something that happened to
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:47
			you
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:49
			and
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:52
			there was harm waiting for you
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			and you never knew.
		
00:04:56 --> 00:04:58
			It could be the and that's in. We
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			say Allah is.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			The mercy is withholding
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			harm from you.
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:05
			There could have been so it could have
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:07
			been a person that said something about you.
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:08
			It could have been someone wanted to do
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:09
			something to you.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:10
			You know, there was one time,
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:13
			a man was looking at
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:15
			the camera,
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:18
			reviewing the camera in his home, and he
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:19
			saw there was a thief.
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:22
			The thief come to his home,
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:25
			and he was about to try to something
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:26
			stopped him. Something
		
00:05:27 --> 00:05:29
			stopped him. He turned around, and he left.
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:33
			It's Al Hafid, the protection of Allah. So
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:35
			we don't know the way Allah rewards. The
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:38
			most important thing is Allah said he would.
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			The prophet said he would, and that should
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			be the incentive for the Muslim
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			to do the action of. And then lastly,
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:47
			looking at the the minute shave that how
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:49
			small this, how easy this is for us,
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:50
			it's just vocalizing.
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:55
			So and while you're saying it,
		
00:05:56 --> 00:05:58
			I hopefully, by the 10th time you're saying
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			it, you're thinking about it,
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:02
			and you think of the glory of Allah
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			So may Allah make us of those that
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:07
			glorify him in secret and in open. May
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:09
			Allah reward us for our efforts of coming
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:11
			here to the masjid and listening to the
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:13
			Quran and listening to the words of Allah
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:15
			and saying the name of Allah Subhanahu Wa
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:16
			Ta'ala continuously.
