			Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al
hamdu Lillahi wa salatu salam ala
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:08
			UD Mursaleen. What are the early
he was so happy your Baraka was
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:13
			seldom at the Sleeman kefir on Eli
omy Dean Emeritus, well Lavina
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:18
			caribou Biya Tina sunesta de regio
whom in hydrilla Allah moon, this
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:22
			is what Allah subhanho wa Taala
says, There are two things that we
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:23
			want to discuss today.
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:31
			Number one is a juror to Allah
Allah, boldness with Allah,
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:34
			boldness in front of Allah, what
is Allah going to do to me?
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:40
			While it's only outride,
disbelievers and atheists who may
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:47
			do that, but those believers who
don't think about Allah and have
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:48
			forgotten him for a while,
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:52
			thinking that I'm not being
punished, everything is going
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:57
			very, very well in my life. I'm
having success after success. I've
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:00
			just made that deal. I've just had
that deal. I've had that
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:03
			promotion. Look, I've just been
able to buy a house in that
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:08
			particular area. Look at the car
that I drive, look at the clothing
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:10
			that I wear, I only shop in
certain stores and everything like
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:17
			this. And I don't pray too much. I
don't do this. I don't do that. I
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:22
			do I enjoy the Haram you know, I
enjoy all of these things. That's
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:24
			what you call boldness in front of
Allah subhanho wa taala. When you
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25
			become
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:30
			no guilt, there's no feeling of
guilt. In fact, there's a sense of
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:35
			security, that I'm secure from any
punishment, I'm secure from
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:36
			anybody seizing me.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40
			When that happens for a while a
person feels very secure.
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:47
			Feeling secure from the divine
punishment and the wrath, feeling
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:50
			secure that Allah subhanaw taala
has many, many ways that he will,
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:52
			he can
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:59
			take me to task. And once he puts
me into this, then it's like
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:04
			it's actually like a like
quicksand. It's quite dangerous.
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:09
			But shaytaan helps us to forget,
and this is what the problem is.
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:14
			So this is a massive sin,
iniquity, it's a sin and iniquity
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:19
			that a person has boldness with
Allah subhanaw taala and you feel
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:24
			secure from his punishment, and
his wrath. How do you deal with
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:27
			that situation? The deal the way
to deal with that situation before
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:33
			it's too late. Before we're caught
in that act is to inculcate fear
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:39
			of Allah subhanaw taala hope. So,
the opposite of Jura is Hope is
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			fear of Allah subhana wa Tada
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:48
			fear of Allah subhanho wa taala.
When it's coupled with veneration
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:55
			and reverence, then it is called
hush hear the word Hashem means
		
00:02:55 --> 00:03:00
			fear of Allah subhanaw taala when
it's a reverent fear, see fear of
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:04
			Allah subhanho wa Taala is very
different to fear of people in the
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:09
			world generally, it could probably
be better understood as fear from
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:14
			the mother for a child. When a
child is shouted at by the mother,
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:19
			what does the child do? Does he
run away? Or does that same child
		
00:03:19 --> 00:03:23
			go and try to get into the lap of
the Mother, the same mother who's
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:24
			shouting at him?
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:30
			Because he knows, as a child, he
knows that this is where I'm gonna
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:33
			get security from. This is where
I'm gonna get some assistance
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:38
			from. This is where my nourishment
comes from. So he doesn't run
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:42
			away. But when it's anybody else
in the world, people run away from
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:44
			the police, they run away from the
authorities, they run away from
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:48
			people that they may feel that
will harm them, they don't run
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:53
			towards them. You can only feel
that sense of sense of comfort and
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:57
			confidence and security in your
mother.
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:01
			And that gives us an idea of how
believers should be with Allah
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:04
			subhanaw taala so that's why
there's a special term in Arabic
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:05
			called Hush,
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:12
			hush, hush your own. They are hush
your own in their salats that
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:16
			Allah subhanho wa Taala uses this
term often is Reverend fear
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:19
			respecting is a respectful fear.
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:22
			A fear of veterans.
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:26
			It's reality. How do you know you
have it?
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:32
			The sign of it is that the heart
will quiver
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:38
			for the heart to quiver to
suspicion of being afflicted with
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:40
			a harm like punishment.
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:45
			You feel a quiver in the heart a
trembling in the heart if you feel
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:49
			that Allah subhanaw taala may
punish you for this. Thus you want
		
00:04:49 --> 00:04:52
			to be in his good books. You want
to be closer to him.
		
00:04:56 --> 00:05:00
			How do you inculcate this fear?
How do we develop the
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			sphere, how do we get more of
this? So that we can be balanced?
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:10
			Its causes bearing in, in mind
one's sins. You have to focus on
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:16
			our sins. I've got sins and sins
are punishable. What's going to
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:19
			happen? You know, people who've
been evading tax for a while.
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:21
			What is their fear?
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:26
			Their fear is that one day they're
going to get checked. And it's all
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:30
			going to open up. They've been
doing many, many things. No
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:31
			inquiry has come yet.
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:36
			But if the inquiry comes, it's not
very, it's not all very clear.
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:43
			You can hide from the taxman you
can hide from lots of people in
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:46
			the world but with Allah subhanho
wa taala, the chip is there from
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:50
			before smart devices in this world
ever existed. Allah had this
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:55
			technology from before. The earth
will speak on the Day of Judgment.
		
00:05:55 --> 00:06:00
			What Yama is into Hadith, Bara,
the hearts will reveal that's the
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:03
			massive database well who Silla
mouth is sudo.
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:07
			The limbs will speak if that's not
enough, the limbs will speak.
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:11
			undock and Allah, Allah, the
undock ocular shake
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:14
			the angels,
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:18
			they're writing as an outside
witness on top of that.
		
00:06:20 --> 00:06:22
			So it's to fear
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:26
			and think about one sins,
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:31
			the intensity of Allah's
retribution for them, how Allah
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:35
			can punish, especially especially
when you hear about other stories.
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:40
			The weakness of the cell is that
the self in bearing this
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:43
			punishment can I bear the
punishment of a life it comes upon
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:46
			me. You know, when we say
punishment, Jerry, you understand
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:49
			punishment as being beaten or
whipped or something like that.
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:52
			But you know, Allah's punishment
is a lot more smarter than that.
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:55
			It's a lot more sophisticated than
that.
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:00
			Allah, His punishment when it
comes, it's in the form of agony.
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:05
			It's a form of depression. It
could be in the form of
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:10
			disquiet disquietude in the heart,
despite having abundance, you just
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:11
			don't feel secure,
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:18
			being bothered by small things,
psychological illness, OCD,
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:24
			numerous things of this nature,
just very subtle ways that will
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:28
			just bother the person, and a
person will be uncomfortable.
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:33
			A person will feel that the world
is tight around him restricted
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:38
			around him, despite the vastness
of the world. Despite despite the
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:42
			vastness of abundance and
abundance of possession around
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:46
			them, they won't feel satisfied.
This is we should think about it
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:49
			this way, not about punishment,
just about in hellfire, because
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:53
			that seems so far away. When a
person is thinking about
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:57
			punishment of the Hereafter, if
you're so far away, that we kind
		
00:07:57 --> 00:08:01
			of put a buffer between ourselves
and that and we feel that we got
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:05
			time for that to rectify that. But
it comes in this world,
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:08
			a form of an accident
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:14
			form of just a breaking in the
house, a leak that you just can't
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:18
			fix. You've just spent huge
amounts of money doing something
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			and then suddenly there's a leak
and he has to be all torn up.
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:25
			Just bought a business spent huge
amounts of money there.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:30
			But now you have to close it down
or make another business.
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:34
			And then Subhanallah you don't
even want to start on the whole
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:38
			magical issues that are easy
issues. Especially if somebody
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:41
			gets you onto that track and says
this is the reason then you're
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:44
			looking around the world and
spending all of your money and
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:47
			trying to find a cure for it.
Because you don't even know what
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:47
			the problem is.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:51
			Allah has so many things.
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:57
			That's why they say that if
somebody wrongs you, then rather
		
00:08:57 --> 00:09:02
			than try to retaliate by yourself,
do suffer and have patience in
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:06
			Allah subhanaw taala Allah has so
many more ways of dealing with
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:10
			your aggressor and your oppressor
than you have yourself.
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:15
			But it's about knowing that Allah
system is like this and his
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:20
			capabilities, his power. Other
conditions in Kadeem Brd, he could
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:25
			Lucia, everything is in his hands.
So we think about the weakness of
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:29
			ourself in bearing it, the immense
power of Allah to deal with a
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:36
			person. However, he wills whenever
he wills, while the person is
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:41
			butter, lowly, powerless slave, in
need of Allah for everything.
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46
			Allah subhanaw taala created us
from nothing.
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:53
			And it is him who sustained us.
All of this time through our
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:57
			parents, guardians, whoever has
brought us up. He's the one who
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:58
			has guided us
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			yet
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			How can we object to Allah
subhanaw taala and disobey Him.
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:07
			So this leads to
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:15
			when a person inculcates the fear
it will lead to a dismay, which is
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:21
			the heart will not get too excited
about things, thinking that it's
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			my doing.
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:26
			You'll have the right
satisfaction, but it won't be a
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:31
			false sense of satisfaction, you
won't be an arrogant satisfaction,
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:35
			you won't be a satisfaction of
exultation. When you're walking
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:39
			around stomping on the ground as
though you own the world now. It
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:42
			will be measured, you can still
enjoy your riches, you can still
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:47
			enjoy your position, but it will
be a humble position, like the
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:49
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam when he enters Mocha, mocha
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:53
			Rama as a victor, against those
same people that threw them out.
		
00:10:55 --> 00:11:00
			And yet, look at his softness and
his gentleness. That's the kind of
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:05
			that's the kind of superiority,
the humbleness, the humility that
		
00:11:05 --> 00:11:09
			needs to be inculcated, not the
arrogant one. I know the world is
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:10
			full of arrogant people.
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:16
			I know when you looked at when you
watch Trump over and over again
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:19
			and his expressions I am this
anime that and all the rest of it.
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:24
			That seems to say that this is a
trend in the world. So people are
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:26
			followers. Most of us are
followers. So we tend to say the
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:30
			same things. Unfortunately, in
fact, he's a reflection of who we
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:34
			are the who people are. This is
what what leaders are generally
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:38
			reflections of their subjects.
That's that's generally what the
		
00:11:39 --> 00:11:40
			what the case is
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:45
			an example of divine action,
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:49
			that should be feared by true
believers, but which is generally
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:55
			ignored by hypocrites. If not
artha, Allah describes he says, Be
		
00:11:55 --> 00:12:01
			well afraid. If the divine country
continues to treat you well. I say
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:07
			Look, listen to this carefully. He
says, Be very afraid if the divine
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:12
			continues to treat you well,
despite your consistent
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:12
			wrongdoing.
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:19
			So what are you afraid of be
afraid that he may be taking you
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:23
			to punishment or perdition in
small, unnoticeable degrees.
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:28
			Everything is going well but
you're still disobeying him.
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:33
			And he is not doing anything about
it. He's just giving you success
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:38
			after success. Be careful there
that all he's doing is that he's
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:43
			just taking us worse and worse
down into the dump into the pit in
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:47
			small small unnoticeable degrees.
And this is exactly where Allah
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:51
			subhanaw taala says in the Quran.
Well Athena cos there will be a
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:55
			Tina sunesta Digial whom mean hate
Allah, Allah moon.
		
00:12:57 --> 00:13:01
			Those people who deny Our Verses,
we shall take them
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:06
			we shall take them into perdition,
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:11
			in subtle degrees, in a way that
they don't even realize.
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:13
			They're deluded
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:19
			Salah to study he explains the
verses saying that we will
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:22
			continue to grant them our
blessings, meaning Allah is saying
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:26
			we will continue to grant them our
blessings. But we will cause them
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:30
			to forget gratitudes they will
never make sugar they will never
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:34
			make sugar is acknowledgement of
who gives you what you have. And
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:37
			we all know that it comes from
Allah eventually, even though it's
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:40
			hard effort on our part, or maybe
our parents left it to us in
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:44
			inheritance, right? Or somebody
gifted it to us, but at the end of
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:48
			the day in this quantum world who
put all that set that all up to
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:51
			work in that way so that we are
benefiting and not somebody else.
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:56
			And we're not sitting as an orphan
in Syria, or in a border camp
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:59
			somewhere and we're sitting here
enjoying our life
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:03
			in this air conditioned place like
this, and we know we're gonna have
		
00:14:03 --> 00:14:04
			some good Iftar today
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:10
			that is Allah is doing placing us
in the right position. Yes, there
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:16
			is human there is human
contribution there in the sense of
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:19
			the facade of it. The outside
features of it is that humans did
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:24
			this but the setup is all from
ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada. So, what
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:28
			Salah to study says Rahmatullah
here, they, we continue to grant
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:33
			them our blessings, but we cause
them to forget gratitude and
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:33
			sugar.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:39
			So that so when they then begin to
rely on blessings, all of those
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:42
			good things that are happening to
them, yet remained veil from the
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:46
			giver of blessings. They are then
suddenly swept away in sudden
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:50
			punishment, even artha Allah He
explains in another aphorism, he
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:52
			says, Every time they commit a new
sin,
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:58
			every time somebody commits a new
sin, we renew a blessing for them.
		
00:14:59 --> 00:14:59
			This is what
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:03
			lysing is just he's putting in
different words.
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:08
			This talk today is just about
reflection. It's it's not stories,
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:12
			it's reflection, it's just we have
to just think about where we are
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:17
			in this regard. So it's gonna
require just a lot of thoughts. So
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:20
			if not, I thought Allah says what
this verse means. Every time they
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:24
			commit a new sin, we renew a
blessing for them. And we cause
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:29
			them to forget repentance from
that sin. They don't they keep
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:32
			doing the sin and they do it
successfully. Nobody found out.
		
00:15:33 --> 00:15:38
			Nobody found out. So they do it
again. Nobody found out so they do
		
00:15:38 --> 00:15:42
			it again. And the problem with
sins is that you have to intensify
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:45
			sins because what happens with
sins is they get boring, like
		
00:15:45 --> 00:15:48
			everything in the world. So you
have to do something more the next
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:50
			time and something more than next
time.
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:57
			And it's, it's I remember once in
our class, one of the students who
		
00:15:57 --> 00:15:58
			used to
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:02
			be doing a lot of mischief in the
class. One day when the teacher
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:07
			wasn't there. He was doing that
and our one of our shoe whenever
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:11
			one of our teachers, Mufti Shabir
His name is he walked in and he
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:15
			caught him that day. And he
started to protest. He said, This
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:20
			is the first time this is the
first time I've done this. And if
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:22
			this should be submitted, he said
that even Allah doesn't catch you
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:27
			on the first time. Even he let you
go so many times. There's no way
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:30
			that you've done it now. We all
knew that he was right. This was
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:33
			not his first time. That's just
what criminals say.
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:36
			If they can't process they will is
caught in Act.
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:39
			imagined that with Allah subhanaw
taala
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:42
			that's that's the danger.
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:47
			One thing though, we have to
understand here is are we talking
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:52
			about fear today, the fear should
not be so much that you lose hope.
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:55
			The Fear should not be so much
that you lose hope.
		
00:16:56 --> 00:17:00
			You shouldn't fear a state urge to
such a degree that anything good
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:02
			happens and you don't enjoy it.
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:07
			That anything good is happening
and you feel that this is a
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:11
			deception. No. You can enjoy the
good that you have. But anytime we
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:12
			sin we must be
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:18
			seeking forgiveness. And Ramadan
is that best time to do that? To
		
00:17:18 --> 00:17:21
			be honest, I mean yesterday I was
thinking if it wasn't for Ramadan,
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:24
			what would our steak be? If Allah
didn't give us this opportunity of
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:29
			Ramadan? Where would we be in our
spiritual state? Look at the
		
00:17:29 --> 00:17:32
			masjid today compared to what it
was last week after us our prayer
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:38
			look at who is here today. And
mashallah, the
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:43
			how this Masjid seems so alive
compared to Saturday last week.
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:47
			If it wasn't for Ramadan, we would
be somewhere else
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:50
			be doing so we wouldn't be
thinking about these things.
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:55
			Ramadan is an absolute blessing in
that regard, that we get that one
		
00:17:55 --> 00:18:00
			month just to get back on track,
just to reflect, reconnect with
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:02
			the Quran, reconnect with Allah
subhanaw taala.
		
00:18:04 --> 00:18:07
			And if we didn't have it, then we
just stagnate and get worse and
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:10
			worse and worse and worse because
there's no uplifters for hydro you
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:15
			have to go out. You don't get to
go hike every time. But Ramadan
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:18
			comes to every single one of us,
which is only done by about 3
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:23
			million people a year. So if not
above he says that fearing is the
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:27
			estate Raj though, it should not
suspend the belief believer with
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:31
			so much fright, but should rather
inspire the believer to
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:35
			consistently increase in his
chakra and gratitude and
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:41
			repentance. The calamity is when
one persists in since the calamity
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:46
			The problem is when a person
continues to do the same and
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:51
			becomes diluted that there is no
ensuing punishment coming. That's
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:52
			when the problem is
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:57
			and assumes that the lack of
punishment is an indication of my
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:03
			good status that I'm getting away
with it. It's so easy to feel that
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:06
			way. It's so easy to feel that way
and nothing happens and you just
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:08
			feel I haven't been caught for
years.
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:12
			Why am I going to be caught now?
I've never been caught in 20 years
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:16
			I've been doing this. Now I've
been caught until now. Allah
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:20
			forgive us. Yes Atari Yes, Atari
Assa tar, which means Oh
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:24
			concealer. Oh concealer. Oh
consider. May He continue to keep
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:26
			us conceived and veiled.
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:31
			Finally, a particular form of St.
Raj.
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:35
			This one listen carefully.
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:42
			A particular form of estate Raj is
that one finds themselves speaking
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:44
			to others of virtue,
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:49
			telling other people about good
things in virtue. This is for
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:50
			people like me, right?
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:55
			Despite lacking it, lacking it in
one's own character.
		
00:19:58 --> 00:20:00
			A bowl of man I believe
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:06
			basil Haley states, whoever speaks
of higher spiritual shame, yet is
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:11
			himself not ashamed before Allah
in his discourse, is a victim of
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			est Raj.
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:18
			A person who's telling others, but
they're doing the same thing and
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:21
			they're not concerned when is
you're concerned. I'm telling
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:24
			others but I'm concerned about
myself despite my weakness, I may
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:27
			be doing wrong things as well. But
I'm telling others, but I'm
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:31
			concerned about I'm fighting.
That's understandable. Allah can
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:33
			be forgiving, but I'm not
concerned I do myself but I keep
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:34
			telling other people.
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:40
			Then that is a form of storage. In
that light, it is said that Allah
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:43
			revealed to isa alayhis, salam,
the Prophet,
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:49
			addressing through him, his
community, and thus all believers.
		
00:20:50 --> 00:20:52
			admonish your own self.
		
00:20:53 --> 00:20:56
			If you are transformed by the
admonishment.
		
00:20:57 --> 00:21:01
			If you're transformed by your
Naseeha that you give to yourself,
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:05
			give nasiha and advice to yourself
first. And if you are
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:11
			changed, and you benefit from
that, then go ahead and admonished
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:16
			others otherwise be ashamed in my
presence to admit admonished
		
00:21:16 --> 00:21:20
			others. May Allah subhanaw taala
help us and protect us.
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:25
			Going back to who Chu, who which
is fear of Allah subhana wa, tada.
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:28
			We already mentioned, the way you
do that is to just feel how many
		
00:21:28 --> 00:21:29
			sins have I done,
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:34
			not to let the punishment start
and then feel that
		
00:21:36 --> 00:21:38
			because once the punishment
begins, there's still people who
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:40
			remain deluded. But a lot of
people who are halfway there,
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:43
			they'll start feeling yes, there's
something wrong with me, I need
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:46
			to, I need to get back to Allah
subhanaw taala.
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:54
			It leads to being humbled, gives
you a shoe.
		
00:21:55 --> 00:21:59
			That is one's heart being filled
with focus gravity in front of
		
00:21:59 --> 00:22:00
			Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:05
			You start we start feeling our
position that we're nothing, we're
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:06
			weak.
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:13
			We've got so much wrong that we've
done. It has said that it refers
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:20
			to hearts a base for the knower of
unseen realms, they also fear
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:22
			leads to Yaqeen.
		
00:22:23 --> 00:22:28
			That is, knowledge taking full the
knowledge taking full control of
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:29
			the heart,
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:31
			that
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:36
			there is nobody but Allah subhanaw
taala that can help me that is
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:38
			what you call your team to be
fully convinced that it's only
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:41
			Allah subhanaw taala that can
benefit me in any way whatsoever.
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:44
			Another benefit of health,
		
00:22:45 --> 00:22:47
			it leads to complete a Buddha and
servitude.
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:55
			That one becomes Allah servant in
every situation. Just as Allah is
		
00:22:55 --> 00:22:59
			the Lord in every situation, we
start recognizing that in each
		
00:22:59 --> 00:22:59
			moment,
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:06
			this is more complete than just
mere worship, to understand that
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:09
			we are a servant of Allah subhanaw
taala.
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:15
			According to one of the righteous
people, he decided that defined
		
00:23:15 --> 00:23:19
			servitude or Buddha, what does it
mean to be a slave of Allah? How
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:23
			do you define that? He says it's
fully embracing all that you have
		
00:23:23 --> 00:23:25
			been commanded to do.
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:30
			And fully abandoning all that you
have been prohibited from.
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:35
			If we can't fully do that, we will
try our best to do as much of that
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:36
			as possible.
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:40
			That is how much fear we will have
inshallah and mail free fear
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:41
			increase in that regard.
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:47
			Another set another define that as
you see the benefit of seeing how
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:50
			different people define these
things, you get a good working
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:54
			knowledge of it. Because different
people are expressing what fear
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:59
			means to them. So one of them
said, it's fully embracing all
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:03
			that Allah has commanded you. I'm
fully I want to do everything that
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:06
			Allah has wanted me to do, I might
not be able to do everything
		
00:24:06 --> 00:24:06
			today.
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:12
			You know, Allah wants me to do my
Hajj. I'm going to do it as soon
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:16
			as possible. Allah wants me to
pray my slots, and I should have
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:20
			it in the masjid. I can't do it
today. But I want to do that
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:20
			tomorrow.
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:23
			Do you understand? So
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:28
			I want to be able to read this
much more Quran. I want to be able
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:32
			to understand the Quran one day,
it's to fully embrace this idea
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:35
			that this is what I want, even if
you can't do everything
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:36
			straightaway.
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:39
			Because if you can't do it today,
but you have the thoughts and the
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:41
			will, that inshallah we'll do it
tomorrow.
		
00:24:43 --> 00:24:47
			And likewise, I want to abandon
all that he has prohibited. So
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:52
			another expression is to serve to
surrender personal desire
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:54
			regarding what unfolds of the
Divine Decree.
		
00:24:59 --> 00:24:59
			Whatever
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:05
			However Allah subhanaw taala wants
to keep us, we try to concede to
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:09
			that. And we're satisfied with how
Allah subhanaw taala keeps us.
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:13
			Mohammed IGNOU happy for us.
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:19
			When is a person's servitude
complete? When do you know that
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:21
			you're a full servant of Allah
subhana wa Tada.
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:26
			If we're asked this question, how
would we answer it?
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:30
			Think about it. This is a very
important aspect that Allah wants
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:35
			us to be His ABD. Because that's
who we are His servant. If
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:38
			somebody asks you, when do you
know that you're a proper servant
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:42
			of Allah that you fully accomplish
that, that you are now playing the
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:45
			proper role of a servant of Allah?
How would we answer that?
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:52
			While we reflect? Let's see what
Muhammad Ibrahim says. He says, he
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:55
			was asked at what point is one
servitude complete, he replied,
		
00:25:56 --> 00:25:59
			when one casts all his burdens
towards his Lord.
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:04
			Anything you need, you cast it to
Allah because you have full
		
00:26:04 --> 00:26:07
			reliance that he will do it for
you. When you want something,
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:10
			you're going to be asking Allah
first. Allah make this happen.
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:13
			Allah only you can make this
happen.
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:21
			And then he patiently perseveres,
with divine tests. That if Allah
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:25
			is to put us through a divine
test, some trouble whatever, where
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:29
			we got sober, we don't start
complaining and freaking out, but
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:31
			we turn in makes you turn more to
Allah subhanho wa taala.
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:39
			Abu Hafs Abu Hafs al Haddad, he
says, complete servitude is the
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:41
			adornment of the slave.
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:48
			It's a way of embellishing
yourself, right? What that means
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:53
			is, if he leaves his if he leaves
it, he has really relinquished his
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:56
			adornment. If he is not doing
servitude, then he is not
		
00:26:57 --> 00:27:02
			beautifying himself. How do you do
it though? adornment, an adornment
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:09
			of loneliness, brokenness, and
absolving oneself of any power or
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:14
			ability. While ascribing all
dignity, majesty and beauty to
		
00:27:14 --> 00:27:16
			one's Lord and Him alone.
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:20
			Not understanding that all
greatness and everything is not in
		
00:27:20 --> 00:27:22
			me, it's in Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:25
			With respect,
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:30
			when fully realized, in such
servitude, the believer will
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:35
			negate any of his own talents or
abilities or faculties.
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:40
			Yes, I have a faculty I'm a, you
know, I can make money, I'm good
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:45
			driver. Right? I can do good
investment. You understand that?
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:48
			But you know, it's coming from
Allah.
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:53
			It's not this selfish claim, like,
of karoun that I got all of this
		
00:27:53 --> 00:27:59
			wealth on my own volition due to
my own discretion, not that it was
		
00:27:59 --> 00:28:00
			from Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:04
			So you recognize that you've got
some ability, you recognize that
		
00:28:04 --> 00:28:07
			you use that everybody have to
recognize their ability, but you
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:09
			know that it's Allah Who gives
with respect to any good that
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:13
			appears at his hands, then he sees
himself as merely a vessel through
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:17
			which Allah is the sole doer and
creator. And that he thanks Allah
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:21
			for making him that if he's doing
something worthy, Allah, thank you
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:26
			for choosing me to do this, thank
you for choosing me to do this
		
00:28:26 --> 00:28:31
			work for the masjid, to administer
the masjid, to help these people
		
00:28:31 --> 00:28:35
			out, to do this relief work, to do
this teaching, to assist my
		
00:28:35 --> 00:28:38
			neighbor, to benefit my family.
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:43
			To help my friends, you just think
yourself that Allah has chosen you
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:48
			for that. Okay, another thing is
that when a person develops his
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:48
			fear,
		
00:28:49 --> 00:28:55
			it will another necess necessarily
necessary entailment and
		
00:28:55 --> 00:28:58
			consequence of it is true freedom.
For real,
		
00:28:59 --> 00:29:03
			this will be difficult, but it's
true freedom, namely, that the
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:07
			servant is no longer enslaved by
anything else in creation,
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:12
			and no authority of the contingent
things preside over him.
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:18
			Which means now that you are your
own boss, because it's only Allah
		
00:29:18 --> 00:29:22
			you care about. Not in a weird
way, you're respecting the rights
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:29
			of people. But you're not a slave
to working for a particular
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:34
			position. You're not a slave, for
a certain status. You're not a
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:40
			slave of the clothing that you
must get or that car you must buy
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:45
			for that position you must have or
that influence or that connection
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:48
			you must make. You're not a slave
to that you can have all of these
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:52
			things, but you're not a slave to
them. And thus when it comes to
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:56
			Allah subhanaw taala these things
can be dismissed and they can be
		
00:29:56 --> 00:29:59
			sacrificed. That's the true test
of it. Am I
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:04
			Need to sacrifice for Allah my
salah my religious deeds that
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:07
			which I have attained of the dunya
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:11
			that's that's the test.
		
00:30:13 --> 00:30:16
			When a person develops freedom,
they understand I can't mess with
		
00:30:16 --> 00:30:19
			Allah, then you get this freedom
then it doesn't matter okay? If I
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:21
			don't get this class is not a
problem Allah will give me
		
00:30:21 --> 00:30:24
			something else. Allah is going to
look after me. He's looked after
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:25
			me all of these years.
		
00:30:28 --> 00:30:32
			Another benefit is that it will
give you spiritual resolve.
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:38
			Meaning the heart you will feel in
your heart aspiration towards
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:43
			Allah subhanaw taala Allah will
become real in your life, you will
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:47
			become detached, detached from
customary norms. The general
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:51
			heedlessness that people have
constant amusement. I don't know
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:51
			what to do.
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:54
			I need to play the game.
		
00:30:55 --> 00:30:58
			I mean, a person is waiting an
adult I'm talking about not a
		
00:30:58 --> 00:31:02
			young man. Not a young not a
child. Children are predisposed to
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:04
			playing. But imagine adults.
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:08
			You've got your smartphone now
this smartphone mashallah has
		
00:31:08 --> 00:31:13
			many, many faculties many, many
things it can do. You're sitting
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:13
			waiting?
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:20
			For you've come to the masjid you
came with too early.
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:24
			So would you sit outside and start
playing Tetris?
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:30
			Or some other weird game on your
phone just pastime? Just passing
		
00:31:30 --> 00:31:35
			time? Or would you put up a Quran
on there, or at the speed or
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:39
			something else and you just, you
know, benefit yourself somehow. It
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:42
			just gets you to focus. You don't
feel like you're wasting time
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:45
			anymore. You could be waiting
somewhere for a long time. But you
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:47
			know that if I start doing mine to
speed like,
		
00:31:48 --> 00:31:51
			I'm going to be benefiting from
this. So you understand that
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:55
			there's no time which is being
wasted. Even if somebody makes you
		
00:31:55 --> 00:31:58
			wait. You're not going to get
angry because you know that you're
		
00:31:58 --> 00:32:00
			benefiting from this place.
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:08
			So you're not in this customary
constant amusement fully
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:13
			fulfilling elicit desires, and the
like, is related on the authority
		
00:32:13 --> 00:32:15
			of Abu Hurayrah. The Allah one.
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:20
			The Prophet sallallahu sallam
said, that Allah said, by my
		
00:32:20 --> 00:32:27
			honor, my majesty, and my Infinite
greatness, I do not combine two
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:32
			fears, or two, securities in my
servants.
		
00:32:33 --> 00:32:38
			I do not combine two fears, fear
two sets of fears coming together,
		
00:32:39 --> 00:32:43
			or two securities in my servants.
Now what does this mean? If he
		
00:32:43 --> 00:32:49
			fears me in this life and lives
righteously? I grant him security
		
00:32:49 --> 00:32:52
			on the Day of Resurrection. You
have fear in this world, you will
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:56
			have no fear, love, how often are
they him what or whom he has known
		
00:32:56 --> 00:32:57
			in the hereafter.
		
00:33:00 --> 00:33:06
			Yet if he feels secure from me, in
this world, in this life by boldly
		
00:33:06 --> 00:33:07
			indulging in disobedience,
		
00:33:09 --> 00:33:12
			then I give him reason to fear on
the Day of Resurrection. And this
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:17
			hadith is related by Abner
Hepburn, in Asahi. So it's just
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:22
			about an remember, remember, with
all of this, this does not mean
		
00:33:22 --> 00:33:27
			that you cannot enjoy the world.
Just don't enjoy the world in a
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:28
			haram way.
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:33
			And if you think that there's no
Halal way to enjoy, then it's just
		
00:33:33 --> 00:33:36
			because you haven't put yourself
into that narrative and that
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:41
			constraint. People in you know,
humans have a lot of flexibility.
		
00:33:42 --> 00:33:44
			You put them into different
situations and different
		
00:33:44 --> 00:33:48
			environments, they will adjust
accordingly. And they will make do
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:51
			with what they have. So if we know
that we have certain restrictions,
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:55
			but I can't do this, I can't do
that. Like I give you an example.
		
00:33:57 --> 00:33:58
			Simple example.
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:05
			Let's talk about an example of a
man. Men have a natural attraction
		
00:34:05 --> 00:34:05
			to women.
		
00:34:07 --> 00:34:10
			It's almost like we've got a
window opening ourselves in our
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:14
			mind that anytime you see a woman
than a man likes to look at the
		
00:34:14 --> 00:34:16
			one this is an attraction there.
		
00:34:17 --> 00:34:21
			You don't have the same feeling
for walls. Unless it's a very nice
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:21
			wall.
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:25
			Do you understand what I mean?
There's a difference.
		
00:34:26 --> 00:34:26
			Now,
		
00:34:28 --> 00:34:32
			this is for generally those women
that a person feels that they can
		
00:34:32 --> 00:34:34
			have a relationship with
		
00:34:35 --> 00:34:39
			a person had could have the most
beautiful daughter, the most
		
00:34:39 --> 00:34:43
			beautiful mother. But will that
same window be open?
		
00:34:45 --> 00:34:48
			For the majority of people, that
they will look at them in that
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:51
			same way of attraction that they
would look at other women.
		
00:34:53 --> 00:34:55
			Their mother could be the most
beautiful woman in the world.
		
00:34:56 --> 00:34:58
			Their daughter could be the most
beautiful their sister could be
		
00:34:58 --> 00:34:59
			the most beautiful
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:04
			majority of men will not look at
them in the same way as others
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:08
			because there's a psychological
mental door that shut.
		
00:35:09 --> 00:35:12
			You don't even think about it.
Look, I know there are exceptions
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:16
			in the world, I know there are
problematic people in the world
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:18
			who they've opened every door.
		
00:35:20 --> 00:35:24
			So for for them, everything is the
same, they are deviant. But that's
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:29
			a minority, the majority of people
will have shut that door that's
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:31
			you're going to look at them
differently.
		
00:35:33 --> 00:35:35
			You're going to look at it
differently. Your sister, you will
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:37
			look out with admiration and love,
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:39
			not with lust.
		
00:35:41 --> 00:35:44
			Whereas with others, there's that
door. Now, of course, we have to
		
00:35:44 --> 00:35:49
			regulate that door. But it's so
easy to do this. When you look at
		
00:35:49 --> 00:35:53
			fear, sorry, when you look at
beauty, and attraction.
		
00:35:55 --> 00:35:57
			In some of those, if it's a woman
for a man, then they look at it
		
00:35:57 --> 00:36:03
			with sexual attraction. If it's a
cute child, then you look at them
		
00:36:03 --> 00:36:07
			just out of admiration. It's a
different type of approach.
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:12
			The same way, it's just about
changing the approach. We've just
		
00:36:12 --> 00:36:17
			allowed those doors to be opened
up too far when it comes to all of
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:21
			these worldly things. And thus we
feel that there's no pleasure when
		
00:36:21 --> 00:36:22
			it comes to just Halal things.
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:25
			And it's very difficult to
convince somebody by just
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:26
			explaining
		
00:36:27 --> 00:36:31
			the way you do it is that you
restrict yourself and understand
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:34
			okay, these firearms are out of
the way. I'm only going to do what
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:35
			is halal.
		
00:36:36 --> 00:36:38
			And then Allah will start giving
you enjoyment in that.
		
00:36:40 --> 00:36:43
			As the narration mentions that if
a person stopped them stops
		
00:36:43 --> 00:36:46
			themselves from doing a haram
		
00:36:48 --> 00:36:51
			because of Allah like you're about
to do it and you say no, I'm not
		
00:36:51 --> 00:36:54
			going to do it and you make a dua
at that point, your door will be
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:55
			accepted.
		
00:36:59 --> 00:37:04
			So as this is the month of
Ramadan, the perfect practice in
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:08
			place the perfect training ground
for controlling the hearts for
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:13
			controlling the knifes for
inculcating fear of Allah subhanaw
		
00:37:13 --> 00:37:19
			taala by I think we need to sit
down once a day at least at some
		
00:37:19 --> 00:37:24
			time, whether it be before Iftar
and just think how many sins have
		
00:37:24 --> 00:37:28
			I done? What is my state what's
going on? And what difference do I
		
00:37:28 --> 00:37:32
			have to make in my life and
inshallah this will get us onto
		
00:37:32 --> 00:37:35
			the road of inculcating fear in
our hearts and in sha Allah may
		
00:37:35 --> 00:37:39
			Allah allow that to increase and
thus give us Taqwa? Well here Dawa
