Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim
Al hamdu Lillahi wa Salatu was Salam ala UD mursaleen were either

Yo medallion fertile mono water balloon Ilam and at Allah Have you
all been Salim
Gollum Natale la Mercado cache Miss Lulu me.
Monica the cache on mithril whammy.
Nothing leads you like suspicion.
So, Allah subhanho wa Taala on the day of judgments on the Day of
Judgment once us with a pure heart in front of him.
That's why he says yo medallion lie in federal Merlin wala balloon
Ilam and Atala hubby colbyn Salim.
On that day when
no wealth or
children will be of benefits,
no welfare children will be of benefits. The only thing which
will be of benefit will be heart that is sound. What exactly does
it mean? That I have a heart is sound? What is exactly is it that
becomes an obstacle in this path of the heart remaining sounds. So
that's what this one is speaking about. Murca the cache on mythical
whammy. Nothing leads you like suspicion, suspicion is something
which is very powerful in where it leads you. And in its power to
lead you away from ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada.
So what he's saying here, in Arabic, the word cada yaku do
means to lead somebody from the front
to lead somebody from the front is cleared. In Arabic.
Generally, it's talking about leading animals. Now just that
word. With animals, you can understand how helpless the animal
is, with the Master of the animal, you've got power over the animal,
so you're leading the animal it has to obey. So it's showing how
this one is so powerful in leading.
It's almost like we are helpless in the hands of this suspicion.
Where is this suspicion coming from? Whose suspicion is it? So
now, it's saying one mythical whammy? What is Warham? Exactly?
What ham is a stage of thought? Well, ham is a stage of thought.
You have various stages, when ideas pop into your mind.
Emotions make you
emotions, give you some kind of impetus to do something, you have
a desire to do something, or you feel like doing something you have
a feeling.
There's different levels of this. One is you have a fleeting
thought, there's not much strength in it. And it's easy to dismiss,
you carry on. And eventually it gets to a 5050 level where you've
got a thought about something but you're not 100% Sure. You're not
100. But you're only 50%. Sure. So the positive aspect, and the
negative aspect of it is completely equal, that's called
shuck in Arabic.
And then you have a version of one or a vanilla lip, which means when
you're when you have a dominant thought about something where it's
over 50%, but you're not 100%. Sure. So anything less than 100%
more than 50% is normally called one preponderant opinion, dominant
opinion, you can only really have an opinion, if you're more than
50% sure about something. So you can even use the word opinion for
this type of thoughts. Because if somebody holds an opinion, when
they just 5050, then that person's opinion, or really, they don't
really matter, right? They're not of any value whatsoever. So for
somebody's opinions to value to be of some value, they have to be
over 50% to 100%.
Of course, if it gets to 100%, it's not just an opinion, it's
affected. So you're keen,
right, but the person could be deluded and think it's 100%. So
that's a different aspect. But anything less than 50%
Is anything less than 50%. Then in that case, it's called a wham.
Wham. Now that could be 2% 5% 10% 20%, or maybe 49%. But
that's what I'm essentially. So what hum is just like a notion.
It's not an opinion, it's like a notion, but what he's saying is
that this is what drives a person. In most cases, people don't think,
and it drives the person in most cases. And this is what the the
worst part of it is. It is the weakest level of shock. It's the
weakest level of opinion and thoughts. And essentially, it's
anything that goes against your team.
So here in the case of this though,
in the case of this it's anything that goes against
you're keen, anything you don't have, you're keen in anything that
you don't have, you're keen. And that means absolute conviction,
then all of that will be included in, in his perspective here.
So although what I explained is general, but when it comes to this
particular saying he's referring to everything, aside from 100%.
And you'll understand why we say that. So what he's saying,
essentially is, there's nothing like suspicion, which will pull
you drive you to desire, the creation, created things,
to desire you to essentially, sacrifice your own akhira
for the sake of them, because you feel that there is a certain
benefit that you're getting.
You may even see certain benefits that are coming, you will want to
humiliate yourself in front of creation, because of these
suspicions.
Essentially, it's saying that it will take you away from the
Yaqeen, to something that doesn't have your team doesn't have 100%
conviction.
So because we feel
that benefit is coming from them, we're receiving certain benefit
from the McLogan from the creation,
or harm that's coming from them, or if he isn't and harm from them.
Or we feel that they're going to give us something or we're going
to receive something from them, or that they're going to prevent
something from them, and they have the ability to prevent it.
Then our greed grows
in that direction.
And that's what we generally associate ourselves with. So then
we humiliate ourselves in front of them, we humble ourselves in front
of them. And we become reliant on people, we will become reliant on
the creation on created beings.
If
the you're keen, and the 100% conviction,
if we attain that, then that and what is the European what there's
only one year clean, and something that you're clean is that
everything is in the hands of Allah subhanaw taala.
So if we're able to gain the yaki in, that everything is in the
hands of Allah subhanaw taala even though we see the apparent causes
of things in the hands of people, and in the hands of worldly
forces,
if we can just focus on where the origin of this is an in whose hand
the source of this is, then, and the fact that our knifes and our
life and everything is in the the power of Allah subhanaw taala, in
the control of Allah subhanaw taala. And everybody else is like
that, as well as everybody else is like that as well. And they are
unable to even benefit themselves. If Allah subhanaw taala doesn't
want them to, then how can they benefit somebody else? How can
they benefit somebody else, if we can get to this level of thought,
our mind can get to this level of thoughts, then you will become
despondent of people and your hope will become fully attached to
Allah subhanaw taala.
Your himer will go to Allah subhanho wa Taala only, our
aspiration will be only for Allah subhanaw taala.
And we will abandon everybody else doesn't have to be physically
abandoned people. But in terms of mindset in terms of our
perspective, where we think we're getting the benefit and harm
that's coming from.
Now, the problem here is this. We don't see the benefit coming from
Allah subhanaw taala because we don't see that many miracles.
And only some people believe in miracles.
Even if a Khurana took place or something Allah did something
unusual for us, most of us will reduce it to some kind of
most of us will reduce it to some kind of dynamic of the world.
We'll give it some cause and reason will interpret it some way.
But that's far and wide. That's that's very difficult that that
even happens. The main thing is that we see our benefit coming
from the people. We see harm coming we fear things, because
this is we see the apparent links between things, that apparent
associations we see them as apparent causes, whereas the real
cause is ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada.
Now, one thing that's been coming to mind is that
a human being, we have physical power. We have energy. We have
restraint. We have
the ability to take suffering. We have the
ability to take a lot of burden.
If somebody is motivated,
they will have more, they will be able to muster more of their
energy than somebody who's not motivated. Somebody who's not
motivated, they will feel sleepy, somebody who's not motivated, they
will feel tired, they will get tired easily, they will give up
easily. Somebody who's got motivation, him goal, aspiration,
belief, belief is what gives all of this the highest level of
persistence, then suddenly, you see, you will have more energy.
Why is it that we can fast for so many hours
in Ramadan? Why is it or anytime for that matter. And it's not that
difficult, and we feel we can bear it, we feel it's
possible to do it.
It's because of belief. Suddenly, our entire biological system, our
physiological system kicks in, based on our belief.
You got other people who are very strong as well, you tell them too
fast, because they don't see the benefit in it, they don't see the
health or whatever reason, it is just going to be a mundane act for
them. And it's going to be very, very, very difficult for them. If
we did not have one of these virtues for fasting that we did,
how fasting would be so difficult, how difficult would become
fasting. So on small things and individual things we make, we set
our belief correctly. So the only reason we can really fast during
these days really is that we know there's great benefit coming from
it. And we believe there's some baraka and it's making it easy for
us can't see the baraka, like physically you can't touch it, but
you feel you're getting it. So in small things, we have little we
reach a certain type of yucky,
a certain level of it, not enough, but enough to get us through. If
we can reach this in all matters,
which is the purpose of the path, if we can reach this in all
matters, then really, we will be truly free. And then we'll be able
to exert ourselves. And you know, what comes to mind is that if we
take the example of people who fast in Ramadan,
in these difficult, you know, whether you're fasting was shorter
hours, but in extreme heat and dryness, or humidity, right, well,
you're sweating like crazy, and you have to replenish yourself. In
certain countries you go, you're gonna have to have lots of water.
Without that you could die. Being in that kind of situation, people
are fasting in that situation. Our first Alhamdulillah Allah subhanaw
taala has kept the has withheld the weather. So although we have
long hours, we're not in that state where you're you're rushing
to have water or you feel like having as much water as you would
in one of those countries where they'd have less time. So
everybody has their own kind of challenges. If we can get our
Yaqeen just like that, or get an idea of that Yaqeen for the sake
of Allah subhanaw taala in everything in general, our life
will become much freer, and then we will really be connected to
Allah subhanaw taala. So that's what he's saying here, that you
will eventually leave people and abandon the idea of people, right,
and thinking that everything comes from them, if you gain your kin,
because you can only have your kin in one thing. You can't have your
cane, that benefit comes from a person because at the end of the
day, that person themselves does do not have the ability does not
have the ability to benefit you if Allah subhanaw taala does not
want. But the problem is that the apparent causes are so deceptive
for us that we think of them in the level of your team.
That To be honest, they only generally, you know, based on the
table that I explained in the beginning, the levels that I
explained in the beginning, they only vulnerable highly most of the
time.
Because generally this world is predictable, Allah subhanaw taala
has given some kind of predictability in this world.
Otherwise, it'd be a very strange world to live in. If if it was a
world where you did not know what was going to happen next, you took
a step you did not know if you were actually going to move
forward or not. If it was that unpredictable, even though every
time you step in, take a step and the fact that we move forward is
from Allah subhanaw taala and he occasions that each time
but if we didn't know it'd be very difficult
if you took a knife and you're about to cut something and you
were like inshallah Inshallah, right? Oh Allah make it so it'd be
very difficult. But the fact is that generally it happens. So it's
in the level of vulnerability, but in some cases, they won't happen.
That's why it's only the general holiday, it's not your team. But
because it happens most of the time we take it to yaki, whereas
the Yaqeen should be in Allah subhanaw taala only.
So again, we're just trying to correct our perspective and our
understanding of things.
Another way to say this, which is more important for us, this is
just showing the mechanics of things. But another way to say
this, which is more significant, is that marcada cache and Hadera
tissue who they will hire
Nila tava Homolka? Would you the Laquan
there is nothing that carries you away and drives you away from the
Real Presence of Allah subhanho wa Taala then you're feeling that
benefit comes from beings from creative beings.
And
if you could remove that, and you stop it from allowing you to carry
you away, then you will go back to Allah subhanaw taala because that
is the natural faith on which we were created.
Kulu the new the island FITARA
every offspring is born on the fitrah the primordial state, the
only connection we had before coming into this world is with
Allah subhanaw taala which Allah explains in the Quran by saying
that when Allah subhanaw taala created other Malays he then
extracted all of his progeny. And then he asked them, and I your
Lord, He gave them some level of perception and he said, Aren't
your Lord allow us to be or be complacent called rubella?
Shahidullah? They said, absolutely you are. So the only connection
and association that we've had before our birth is with Allah
subhanaw taala that is the fitrah on which we're born. So if we can
regain that perspective of going back to our origin and our source
and our only,
Lord, then all of these things will cut away from that. But it's
deceiving. This world is a fitna that's what Allah has told us,
it's a fitna that you will see the apparent causes of things and this
is what you will become dependent on. So what is it that is
preventing us from going to Allah subhanho wa Taala and making him
our only source. It is basically our associations with other than
Allah subhanaw taala and the attractions that holds the pulling
and the ropes and the links that we have with anybody else. This is
what's pulling us away from Allah subhanaw taala.
So, every time our knifes our heart wants to go to Allah
subhanho wa Taala
what will pull it is something to do with the dunya simple whether
that be let me just check my email.
Okay, let me just check my whatsapp.
Let me just go and do this. Let me just check this. Let me just think
about this. This is what makes us put these things off because we
have so many links and we got so many links. There's not one thing,
it's another. If it's not that then it's another. I'm telling you
if we're out of our phone for a day, which is the majority of our
links today if we're out of that for a day, there'll be other
things that we'll probably find
maybe not as fast because we want our liquid that is not as much
because the phone is taken over. But you will feel it that if you
do take away the phone
you will find it easier to go to Allah subhanho wa Taala but the
knifes because we're so used to worldly links, and we're so
intoxicated by that, we're so addicted to that we'll try to look
for something else to pass our time with.
So every time Hamid Kuru boohooman Tarhana Illa Allah, every time
your heart's desire to journey to Allah Jessa Bahar vertical unlock
the association of the dunya pulls you fell harder to Muhammad Allah
Madhava was Who are my new iTune Allah minha natural that's why
presence with Allah subhanho wa Taala is going to be well
prohibited, banned out of reach for the one whose association with
the dunya is too much called about it, he
led the Luna and that whole hada rattle Isla here where che O'Meara
ek HD book,
don't expect
that you can enter the court of Allah subhanaw taala, the Divine
Court when there's something behind you pulling at you.
So it's like we want to go and visit somebody. I mean, how many
times have you wanted to visit some relative of yours?
How many times have you wanted to go to the masjid sometimes, but
you're not able to. There's some tasks that you need to do. But
because the other desires are pulling you. It's like it's almost
as if it's as strong as being physical blockage. In fact, it's
stronger than that because you don't even have to resist. That's
the problem with this. They're worse than somebody putting up a
blockage because at least they you will get the reward of trying. But
you've been prevented. But here we don't even try because something's
pulled us from beforehand. So the that's why I believe that the
biological self is fully dependent on our emotions, fully dependent,
no emotions. And Allah has given us IG ability within the body to
follow suit. And that's why all of the outcome of the Sharia cannot
be considered to be difficult.
It may be difficult in a sense, but just raise your bar, raise
your hammer, raise your love for Allah subhanaw taala. And you will
see that you can do it.
Because if it was impossible and inconceivable for people to do
certain things, Allah subhanho wa Taala would not have even
legislated it. The ACA, especially the fallout of that nature, that
everybody should be able to do it. Everybody should be able to do it.
So all it really requires is just getting their mindset, right, you
have two sisters or two brothers. And they are both
twins, let's just say same kind of capability, everything same kind
of upbringing, but one just had this additional mashallah
inspiration from somewhere and has a higher him,
she will be able to do much more than the other one.
Her body will allow her to Well, the other one feel sleepy, this
one will feel fresh, will feel vibrant, or feel active and we
want to do something. So how would you raise your bar? That's the
question. I keep complaining, I'm sleepy. I'm lazy. I don't have
motivation. Well, how do you get the motivation? Read? What is the
true world to come? These are the kinds of things that are supposed
to benefit us and help us. That's why he says that.
Allah subhanaw taala says yo Mala and federal man or whatever known
Ilam and at Allah, he called me and said him, so all of these
things. And Allah subhanaw taala is representing all of our
challenges of the world by two things. Because these are
generally the biggest attractions or you can say detractions for us,
which is wealth and children.
You might be saying, for us, it's not worth having children, it's
something else. You know, a lot of people are so lazy today, they're
in their computer games, they don't care about wealth. They
don't care about children, either. That's a whole different ballgame
for the majority of people. If there's a fitna for them, it's
their wealth, or it's their children. They get so engrossed in
these things, they forget Allah. But Allah is saying that on the
Day of Judgment, that's not going to be any matter.
That's not going to help. no benefit whatsoever. In lemon at
Allah have you convinced? except the one who comes to Allah
subhanho wa Taala with a sound hearts and a sound heart is what
to know. Now we understand what a sound heart is. Well, Lila Taluka,
who be che in civil law? It is that hearts which doesn't have an
association with anything but Allah subhanaw taala.
Now, you might be thinking that's a difficult thing to do. How do we
get away from the dunya? Well, we're not saying do it over one
day. But let's hope that by the time we die, we're more away from
the dunya than we are closer to the dunya
I think we have to start off with making it a bit easy for
ourselves. So at least we know, we can put things in perspective now.
Anything we feel attracted to that's taking us away from you
now, understand that this is a fitna
we may not be able to give it up. You may not be able to give up
associating and wasting time with your friends
going to clubs and you know
what, you know wherever Halal entertainment he may be or
whatever the case is, right? But understand that feel guilty at
least feel guilty. One day that will make you stop and reduce.
Of course if it's haram then it needs to be abstain from coming
you should definitely feel guilty, but even Halal kind of things.
It's allowed once in a while these kinds of things. But if a halal
form of mundane activity is becoming our pastime, then that's
an issue.
We always want to be in a pizza store, pizza shop. We always want
to be eating something. We always won't want to be speaking on the
phone or on the phone or something like that. Then understand that it
may be halal and not haram. And we may be speaking to the right kind
of people now friends online, maybe Hello friends. But
if it's overdoing it,
if it's overdoing it, and we're not benefiting from it, then
understand that that's just taking us away especially if it's taking
us away from our salaat and making us commit sins or whatever the
case is giving us an impetus to do that. So Alben Salim is the one
who which doesn't have any association with Allah, except
with Allah so it doesn't have association with anybody but Allah
Subhan Allah Allah, may Allah subhanaw taala give us the Tofik
that before our death, we definitely have some level of
this, if not entirely, completely, that's why Allah subhanho wa Taala
says Welcome to Munna Farrar, the camera Hakuna come, oh, well,
Amara, you're going to come to us alone. You've come to us alone. On
the Day of Judgment, you will come to us alone. Just like the day we
created you. There'll be no to Alucard there'll be no
embellishment, no adornment, nothing that we've gained in this
world. It will be back to square one. That's how we'll be standing
in front of Allah subhanho wa Taala again, that's why Subhan
Allah, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was given one of
The highest levels of attention by Allah subhanaw taala, one of the
highest levels of attention was given by the prophets a lot to the
prophets a lot, and by Allah subhanaw taala. That's why he lost
his father when he was young. He lost his mother, he lost his
father, before he was born, he lost his mother when he was young,
alone, the aged care team and for our
did we find you as an orphan, and thus we gave you a refuge.
This gives us an indication that
this was a specially created circumstance for him.
To give us an indication
that when you
even if you break your
your trust and reliance in things that you think are certain to
benefit you more than a father who can benefit you, generally
speaking.
But Allah is showing through this example of the greatest person to
live, that despite the fact that he was a your team who didn't have
the main source that children need, at their most vulnerable
that humans need at their most vulnerable situations. Allah
subhanaw taala helped them. So you're going to have to become
orphaned from things that are not necessary, not trying to say go
and, you know, become an orphan in the real sense of it, but you are
going to have to become orphan from the world from the other
sources that you think you benefit from, because of sort of loss a
loss and lost the source that he could definitely benefit from,
which was the Father which is generally understood to be of the
greatest benefit. And Allah subhanaw taala gave him everything
that he needed. So if we can remove the other sources, which
are not necessary sources, like a father is as much as the father
is, then Allah subhanaw taala will help us so a form of orphanage
needs to be needed.
Being orphaned, that is where it's very valuable. That's why the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
he said, in Allah withdrawn, you hibel with Allah subhanho wa Taala
is one and he loves
oneness, if you take it in that meaning,
basically saying that Allah loves the hut, which doesn't have to in
it, which isn't associated to more than one. And this is the whole
point of the path, how does a person connect to Allah
and away from things that essentially what this whole point
of the path is just explained in different ways, so that inshallah
one of these things will resonate, it will stay with us, and
inshallah it will become our inspiration where we stay in this
world.
So Allah says, budget Allah Allahu La Raja min, Kobe, NiFi, JioFi,
Allah subhanaw taala hasn't placed two hearts in the body of anybody,
physically speaking, you know, he says men here because generally
women sometimes do have two hearts beating in their body because they
have the embryo. Right? So here, he says, Roger, but the meaning is
the same, which is that you don't have any, nobody has two hearts
that they can continue to consider their own. So the spiritual way of
understanding that is obviously, that when you're full heart, the
one that you have has to be fully associated with Allah subhanaw
taala. That's why when people who've reached that stage,
they have the statements have come from them, like local lift to an
aura Rahula aesthetic.
If I'm burdened if you try to make me see others, I can't. I don't
see anybody else.
I just see Allah subhanaw taala in the sense that I see Allah
subhanaw taala behind everything.
You know,
sometimes I go somewhere, and I asked about the meats. And they
say they've kind of checked it out and everything, but I don't feel
secure that because when you know the industry, the meat industry
and how much
problems there are there. And weird and
varied ways of deception in that you can tell that just asking your
butcher is not enough because the poor butcher doesn't even know
himself. He is going to be given meat by a supplier who's telling
him his halal.
And that meets a player is going to show him a certificate and
certificates attended a dozen nowadays, right? When you know
that, then what I then I will tell the host for example, that it's
okay, you can eat it, I'm not going to eat it. I just know the
industry too much, too well. So I know that I have to be careful
here. Because when you genuinely get an understanding of an
industry and you know where the raw material and everything is
coming from, you will have an idea. So as whatever somebody else
may think because the whole world is about making people think
differently, right? The promotions and things like that image
I just know too much. And it cripples me. It inhibits me, it
inhibits me, it actually creates a problem for me. So I tell him that
same kind of thing he's saying here, you know, everything's
coming from Allah subhanaw taala, it doesn't matter about people,
that doesn't mean that you look down upon them, they remember
that's not the point you have to respect the will because as part
of the deen as well, it's just that you do not have reliance on
anybody. You may have a deal with somebody but your reliance is that
Allah subhanaw taala is going to be the provider. So that's why he
said in this kind of extreme sense, if you make me want me to
look at people, I can't, I just see Allah subhanaw taala. He says,
For inner hula hieromartyr, who had the shadow humara, who I have
to say Allah subhanaw taala with it
with anything.
So the whole conclusion of this is that
it's this one, this suspicion.
This this
level that is below 100%, which has prevented the alarm and the
house or prevents the alarm and the house, the elect people and
the normal people from Allah subhanaw taala it's only the house
will house the elect of the elect a very special people who this
does not prevent, they're the ones who will break that final barrier.
And what this tells us something else, which
shows a bit of hope, in a sense that it is such a difficult thing
to do.
To break through that final barrier where only You see Allah,
that's only for the house will house like the prophets and the
really high ones.
So it's not for our nominal people on the path.
Meaning if you really want to get there, you're gonna have to become
hostile house, the real elite.
But
that's the point. There is comfort in that the reason there's
confidence.
If we feel that we're still associated with others, then we're
like, what's the point? I've been trying for 10 years, 24 years,
I've been doing this, I mean, I still do it. I'm still doing it.
Certain things become hostile house issues, certain things, not
all things. Don't click it. You're not all the time with that kind of
thing. But at least it gives us this thought that we're still
getting somewhere. Because it's not just one step where it's
there. And you do a few things and you'll get to Housel house and
every No, it's a lifelong struggle, because we got too many
associations. Can you even count the associations we have with the
Buddha?
I mean, is it even possible to enumerate them, all the different
associations and links that we have of the dunya, you cut this
one, there's going to be another one you cut this one there's going
to be there's going to be challenges all the time. But at
least if we know logically, mentally, psychologically, we know
it helps us to get to some level. That's what I said right in the
beginning, if we don't get to the colossal house, but Oh Allah, at
least allow us to be more connected to you than anything
else, for that matter.
As far as the awam is concerned, he says,
then
these suspicions, these thoughts and these perceptions are going to
drive them to association with creation. And
it's going to prevent them from going to Allah subhanho wa Taala
and becoming fully associated with him. The reason is, they're going
to be constantly occupied with thinking about others.
When you say others here,
this is not talking about selfishness. Selfishness is also
thinking about others. Others here means other than Allah. So whether
a person is thinking about somebody else, or a person is
thinking about himself, which is selfishness, it's the same thing.
It's other than Allah subhanaw taala. Whereas the house, the
electrical
is the one we'll take them to seeing things.
But because they their mind continue, and the heart keeps
telling them because of the Dhikr that they do and so on. That no,
there's Allah subhanaw taala is behind. So although they're not
fully disassociated, they still they're still able to at least
think correctly. So they're satisfied at least with that much.
They can't cut themselves away completely, but they're still
satisfied with the fact that they at least logically start thinking
that way to a certain degree, in many cases. That's why even though
RGBs says that his shake used to say, Wallah he Maharajah NASA and
Allah He inland wham. It's only this suspicion
that has kept people away from Allah subhanho wa Taala and
Then he used to say
that the problem is this one is Americana either Miyun la happy
Katella who, if it was a real thing that was keeping you away,
then there'd be some sense in that. But the problem is that this
pure speculation is a negative thing. There's nothing there. It's
empty. It's fickle. It's got no hockey curtain, no reality. And
this is what's keeping us away.
The household has nothing prevents them from Allah subhanaw taala.
They have turned down all of these. They have turned on a veils
of this suspicion. Even the finest have suspicions they've turned
them down one after the other, they have gone through them. And
from ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada Allah subhanaw taala has given them or
ailment for him. True ailment true for him through understanding
there's no longer facade in front of things anymore. They see things
as they are. That's why they no longer take a look with anything.
They don't care about anything anymore. For them yet or unlock
will be shaken and nothing prevents them from Allah subhanaw
taala May Allah subhanaw taala make us have them be money he will
Karami
by his by his benevolence and by his honor. That's why he then says
to give the reason why we are like this is because under the hood,
Roma Anton who is where Abdullah Lima Antilla who Tommy in your
despairing you are free man but in your coveting you are a slave is
because of tama and desire that we have that for other than Allah
subhanaw taala that's going to continue to make us like that. So
strengthen your decree and Allah subhanaw taala and you will see
that it will inshallah help us. So Sheikh Abdullah can go he explains
the branch he says that this assertion is the proof for the
previous aphorism, which is we didn't do that one is more bizarre
but our son xuelin Illa, Allah with Retama in, were it not for
the seeds of ambitious desire, the branches of disgrace would not be
lofty. We'll do that next time in sha Allah.
But nothing is as effective as suspicion for imprisoning man in
greed and desire.
As a result of suspicion, man becomes ensnared in the net of
desire, one imagines or suspects that a certain person will be of
benefit to one. One therefore turns the gaze or desire to him
expecting benefit from him, or one imagines a particular trade
profession, or occupation being beneficial for one. Greed then
induces one to become involved in that pursuit. All the chains of
relationship that are fettering man's legs are the products of
man's imagination or suspicion.
It is only divine power through the means of the righteous, which
can free man from these chains. So he says something very important,
he says, it's only divine power through the means of the
righteous.
So
having good company,
and having good armor, is what eventually will help a person come
away from these things.
The ego inclines greatly to imagination and suspicion and
remains very far from higher spiritual realities. As long as
the ego has been has not been purified, the elimination of this
disease is difficult. Now, let's not understand even for a moment
that we're not allowed to do business, we're not allowed to
take on an activity we are we are allowed to do all of these things,
but they must just be vehicles, we must Our mind must be that Allah
will give us benefit from them. So yes, you can say that this
particular job gives a better return, then this one this
business gives a better return is more lucrative than it that's
completely fine. But we must understand that it's because of
Allah keeping it that way. And we also must understand that although
this is a lucrative job, and everybody else is making millions
in that, if I go in there, it is also possible that I may not make
a million in that, because that's, that's happened as well. It's not
everybody. In fact, what generally happens is that when so many
people get into something, it kind of dwindles anyway, but it's just
don't get into something with so much hope in that thing, because
then you'll have no reason to feel remorse afterwards. If you feel
that everything comes from Allah at the end of it, but I'm choosing
my best option. Even if it doesn't happen you'll understand it comes
from Allah subhanho wa Taala So depression will be avoided
