			similar amount of Haman hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa sallahu wa salam to being a Muhammad wa ala
he was like he has made him a buck.
		
00:00:54 --> 00:01:37
			From shocking somebody will usually empty water in order to melissani Fo earlier but I mean
hamdulillah in his book Allah will save or after Kennametal you have been okay in the shower of good
utterances we talked about last time, the actions before if someone was to perform an action of
good, and then followed by a sinful practice and they sought Toba from the sinful practice, does the
actions or do the actions that were before that sinful practice well, they receive the reward for
it? adamant okay I am Brian brings the Hadith of the Prophet sallahu wa salam. I was on occasion
even Hazon where the Prophet SAW Selim he was asked about the freeing of slaves and the connection
		
00:01:37 --> 00:02:02
			of the relatives of the kin that he did in the time of shirk and the prophets of Allah Allah He
asked, How do you Fabbro it? Are they rewarded for it? The prophets also said a slum to Allah is
left to mean higher. And this hadith isn't Buhari, he said, that you have been you have accepted
Islam with all the previous virtues from before so I'm not saying Rahim Allah to Allah talks about
Toba. If someone was to make Toba are their actions.
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:43
			The Act that they did, do they receive reward for that action if they may Towba from it? And he
mentioned that there's a difference opinion amongst the scholars. And subhanAllah. He uses Hadith to
kind of prove his his point that in sha Allah, the person will receive reward for that action that
they've committed committed a sin on. If they perform Toba as he says For he says for how they can
totally under Islam either underneath our token Hassan Atilla T candidate aborted attempt to shirk
for no metabo Minister ki i, the lady so abolhassan Attili moto Fatima, so when the person he said
so this entails that Islam will read, it will cause to return all the rewards that he had from the
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:55
			good deeds that were Baltierra that were not accepted, because of the polytheism for the metab when
he sought repentance, repentance from the shirk, and what is repentance from the show to hear
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:57
			shahada
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:01
			for when he sought repentance from the shirk, I said, What does it mean?
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:12
			It means to return. We have EAD because if you returned all the time,
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:38
			the e li fillable has an IT WAS though, you're gonna have Arabic lessons, because every now and then
this is what I read there because I want you to hear directly from the scholar my transition is not
going to do justice to the Arabic so I want you to get used to that. And I think we need to get used
to hearing books from their lemma, especially in the Arabic language because they mashallah the way
that they they're polymath so when they speak it's it's very it's very rich.
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:45
			So he said either the elite so Abu Dhabi has unnati and Malta Kadima so the good deeds from before
returned to him
		
00:03:47 --> 00:04:20
			because of Islam and that's an interesting concept. But now even okay him goes on to talk about as
he talked about from before chapters before about Tao V mon amor, a Nahai that you will not make
great the orders and prohibitions unless you make great, the legislator of the orders and the
prohibitions. Now he's talking about the next part he says Rahim Allah to Allah, what am I meant to
tell him and now he felt Hilsa Allah Tibet Rudy min Milan Neha or US Barbie ha Well Maga de rue
elaida Amo Jana, but equally was eluting to reblooming
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:57
			he says here What am I meant to tell him in the manner he said and for the signs of the one that
makes the prohibited the pro the prohibited acts great is that they are diligent upon staying away
from Melania what is Bobby Here are the the thoughts are the pre pre pre pre assumptions for that
which leads to it okay, to the prohibited acts, what magazines are ELA and what calls to those
prohibited acts when majority by to win more generally, but equally will still attend to caribou
manner and cutting off or staying away from any introductory pathways that lead to it
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:59
			now, so in
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:11
			In Islamic law, they call this sudden as the raw hair, cutting off the pathways to evil, cutting off
the pathways to evil. So we say for example, when we see for example,
		
00:05:13 --> 00:06:03
			many scholars say shaking a woman's hand for example, this is something that a process on never did
and someone say it's a sealer. It's our see laughy for the money and for that which is prohibited or
itself is prohibited, as well. So even no claim is saying so from the signs of making the prohibited
acts greats, is that you cut off any means to the prohibited act now, and he says Rahim Allah come
on yeah, Hi, Rob. Men, middle American and Latifi has sore allottee taka Ibiza, el Pfitzner too
harsh Seattle ft. Tani be her. And then he says, As an example, as the one that flees he said yeah
Harab as the one that fleas from the places that there are pictures that from them there is fitna
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:17
			in fear of being trialed from it in fear of falling victim of being attracted or trial we find
facing a trial or tribulation from this picture. So what do we see that primarily
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:21
			in our day and age for intense
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:23
			social media,
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:59
			social media, television, right when you turn on your television, we there's the Mohamed, but the
one that is trying to make the deen of Allah subhanaw taala great in the prohibited acts is that he
says Yarrow, the one that leaves and flees from these places that have these sore Latok RBL fitna
these pictures that with it fall one falls into a trial tribulation and fear of being trialed from
it. Right. He hasn't been trolled from a yet. But he stays away from it in fear that he may see
something or she may see something that will cause fitna for them internally.
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:06
			And he says what are you? What are your dharma lebuh Be he has a run, maybe he is.
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:52
			But maybe he buts he says what and yada and to leave mela but to be that which there is no problem
with but in fear that there may be something problematic with it. How that I'm MFE bus so someone
may leave off something that is mobile that is allowed? That is not Muharram right? But it is not
exactly mazahub or Whadjuk. But they leave it in fear of falling into that which is haram. Right and
it's it's very important for us in an environment like in America, particularly where there's a lot
that's around 100 monitor and you know, and especially on our devices is to leave off certain things
like if there's certain apps or things that you're not involved in it's better to leave that have
		
00:07:52 --> 00:08:07
			one heavenly Dini to stay away to take as they say, a Gaya Clayton men allege prevention is better
than cure. Prevention is better than cure. So Masha Allah see the majority of us are over 30 How
many of us have eaten our vegetables today?
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:17
			Only one Henry's to Henry's Michelle at the forefront of the prevention is better than age. And just
to be fair, a doctor raised his hand. So is this the
		
00:08:19 --> 00:09:00
			end the last we see vegetables chicken is good for our health handling handler So prevention is
better than cure. So he says Rahimullah What are you journey but for Lulu minimal Bahati has
shattered a book or a film macro hat and then he gives an example again, why you Johnny BA and to
stay far away from the football the extra minimum Oba heights from the permission from the
permissible acts or from those that are allowed Hachette and walk or eat Phil McGraw Hill in fear
that they may fall and fall into that which is disliked. Now even more Heartland disliked you know,
there's a Hadith of the Prophet SAW Selim. There's there is disagreement upon its authenticity, the
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:02
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam mentioned
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:17
			that lay of the world movement, yada I'm Allah but SEBI has done maybe he but he said that no one
will leave the individual not reached the delta of the level of the movement the believer and until
they leave off that wishes
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:26
			allowed in fear of falling into that which is not allowed. So this is people places and ish things
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:40
			were prophesized Some said that may you do you book LM Allah you do but he said leave off that which
brings you doubt for that which doesn't bring you doubts in the province of Islam F woman a woman it
took off
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:43
			a Shubho hat forgot this Deborah,
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:59
			where the prophet saw some also said and whoever stays away from the ship behind those
misconceptions that what may seem that is allowed or something that you're not sure of? Whoever
leaves that off? Because it's Deborah le Dini hidden he has fled or he has protected his Deen his
his religion and
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:42
			and his honor and his honor. And he says when we joined about two more journey, but he more journey,
but he may you Jahir will be to to cabbie. But it's the caveat where you have seen or her or the
other elaida or your to how it will be hard whether you barely Meraki by minha and then he says and
Bucha and to live off that which if one wants to be open, but the caveat with with doing that
practice, and he beautifies it or makes it look good. And calls to it, well, you're to how and he is
lazy with it. So they don't really have any concern for the fact that it's impermissible to the
degree that they are just lackadaisical. with it. We get to how it will be whether you bad email
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:57
			document, and they don't they're not even really concerned what it can lead to. They're not even
concerned of the end result results of that which in the beginning, they didn't take it like they
took it lightly. But they're not concerned of what that could possibly
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:14
			lead to. Were going to possibly lead to for ending Namaha allottee for animal Hala, Mittal the heavy
metal the heather Dahlia tune Illa Sahil de la heater Allah holiday, he says For verily the getting
involved with that
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:58
			myth, the myth the high the data yet getting involved with something like this or these types of
things, especially getting involved with the things that you know that they do not stay away from
these things. In fear of falling into that which is haram is something that is dire Tony lay there
at subtlety like this indirectly calls to Allah subhanaw taala his anger and displeasure subhanho
Medina, and he says whether you call it to LMS socket suck up I'm in Colombia, he tells him when
Talim Allah, He to Eilat well hold on it. And then he says, and no one will get involved in these
types of things except the one that the greatness of Allah subhanho wa Taala or the greatness of
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:33
			Allah and His prohibitions has snuck up in Kobe He it is it is it is something that is not present
in his heart with with with elegance or that which is great. SOHCAHTOA means to fall literally
something that is fell from his heart. So something that is not present and intense in his heart,
the intensity of making the prohibited at the prohibited acts great by staying away from those
things that could possibly, and this is the adverb that's important here that could possibly 51 to
100% lead to it.
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:45
			That's what he's talking about here. That's the sign of making the prohibited acts. Great. The
prayer acts from Allah subhanaw taala great. And then he says here I will conclude Subhanallah he
says
		
00:12:47 --> 00:13:22
			gremolata women I met to talk him and now he and Yong Yong bubbly la he even to he cut my honeymoon
while he the vehicle be here Huzzah, none, has none what Casselton either OC Allahu to Allah, the
only 1am Yoga be the almighty who do the walk away immediately. Well, let me stop there who are a
euro euro that this is like this is where we're at. He says here and from the signs of making the
prohibited acts great is that they are angry for Allah.
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:32
			They are angry for Allah subhanaw taala for the sake of Allah even to he gets Mojave moon if his
prohibited acts are taken lightly.
		
00:13:33 --> 00:14:00
			If they're not looked at as so significance if they're looked at in a lackadaisical fashion fashion,
he says what a what a Yeji that vehicle be he has none and they find in their heart sadness there
said well customer Alton either OC Allah is where their heart is broken like it's so disparaging and
discontent disenchanting to them to see the impermissible acts that are done in front of him or her
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:07
			now and what's the worst act that way? If one was to see it it will cause them to to be sad
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:11
			Sure, give me an example
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:19
			statues
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:23
			with a killer was
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:26
			either learned or seen.
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:31
			And it's a piece of Hello bad Mr. Abdulla. We have to do
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:33
			know
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:36
			is that what
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:59
			you're saying? That is well I said is I said give me an example. You said in the store, there's
people buying statues that they're going to take home and worship. And he says Subhanallah till
today people take statues home and they worship them. Right? Make no mistake brothers and sisters,
that what what insha Allah brings the most sadness to the movement is when they see shirk practiced.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:11
			If the individuals wearing a suit and he's the pastor and he has great manners mashallah This is
fine. But then when he says in Jesus name we pray well i That should be the saddest thing in the
Muslim encounters.
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:24
			We see people Yes, committing crimes drinking liquor, but make no mistake, the one that worships
other than Allah subhanho wa Taala is the saddest thing that Muslims should see.
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:57
			The saddest thing sometimes we look at the apparent and see this person is mashallah with good
manners, and this is great, but if they worship other than Allah subhanho wa Taala Make no mistake,
that's the worst thing. That's the worst thing. And that's the test for the Muslim because we still
have to treat them kindly and treat them with good manners. And on top of that, when you're
truthfully sad, and it breaks your heart to see a statue worshipped. Or knowing that a person wishes
the statue will lie you have in your heart, the desire to call them to what
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:43
			Islam Islam but when you live in the monotony nine to five, you're busy you work with them Allah,
this is great, you're you. Sometimes you take that lightly, and we're human beings, we take lightly
the fact that that person wishes other than or doesn't worship any God at all right? And that's
something that should be the Muslim should always keep in their mind and take into high importance.
And then he says Rahim Allah to Allah. And then he mentioned ceramill Allah to Allah. He says,
customer Tony there OC Allah if Allah is sinned on the earth, and they don't follow his his they
don't abide by his his rules or his his boundaries, and he or she is not able to change it. That
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:47
			makes him even sadder. That makes him even sadder. So how sad.
		
00:16:48 --> 00:17:02
			Is it in that saying sad to speak about the person, but sometimes you hear the parent may Allah may
not make us from them and if we are May Allah subhanaw taala put in our hearts patients, when their
children ish. Leave the deen
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:14
			when their children leave the deen they leave Islam and this is one of the worst ways when they
legitimize atheism. And this is on the rise.
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:46
			My humble request to all of you brothers, I want your children to go to college. It is Dare I say
Whadjuk upon you to make sure that your children understand to you because if they don't brothers
and sisters in case you didn't know, when they go into school, their physics teacher, their
psychology teacher, there sometime biomedical engineering teacher will give them probing questions
about their their their sometimes Middle Eastern Studies teacher who's not Muslim,
		
00:17:47 --> 00:18:04
			will give them probing questions about their religion, and they will make them feel that if they
don't have an answer, which most of the times they won't, because the teacher that study Orientalism
and understands this, if they don't have an answer, there's something wrong with their faith. And
then the student will walk out of class confused,
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:42
			and then start to question their own faith and shy to come to the masjid because they don't want to
ask maybe what they consider as a basic question. Or because they didn't come to the masjid at all
before because they were never brought to the masjid. And this is plentiful. This is not a
narrative. This is not a rarity. And I deal with college kids all the time. There is a lot of doubt
and confusion. And when you dig deep you find that they never learned their religion. They never
learned about Allah. Never. So when they go to college, what do you think's going to happen?
		
00:18:43 --> 00:19:16
			What do you think is going to happen? So the Ibn okay and Rahim Allah Allah is talking about
something that's very important. And I'll leave it here with that reminder. That when we see shirk
practice, or we see sins practice, it is from the sign when we feel immune to that. That's where we
really have to check ourselves. We have to check ourselves and this will happen to all of us,
especially if we're in the workplace. We have to check ourselves and this is why it's important.
Subhan Allah, the religion of Islam, when you look at it holistically that's why it's important to
come to the masjid that's why it's important to to come around your brothers that's why it's
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:50
			important. It's important to see the shot it of Allah, the signs of a lot the deen of Allah
practice, especially where the Mohammed the prohibited acts are normal, as soon as you walk out the
door. That's why it's important for all of us, mail us from Allah make us of those that make his
prohibited acts great. And allow the prohibition of this acts to enter our hearts to where we have
the Tao veem of the deen of Allah subhanaw taala great in our hearts and in our actions in the holy
you that was so Allahu wa Salam wa barik ala Nabina Muhammad wa to add he was a visionary and the
last one to Allah make it easy upon our brothers and sisters in Libya yada without any Allama say
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:59
			one NFE Libya Allama say why don't you live you hear a bit out of me all I'm gonna say why didn't
most of that feed if you model it, but I got a bit out I mean, ultimately acquiring most of that
feeding female
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:17
			Hi there, Robin Alameen Allah Mr. Burton with a busy man whom we are getting along with a big one.
