what it means by connecting yourself to Allah that sounds like

00:00:02 --> 00:00:04

a very abstract idea like what do you do? How do you connect

00:00:04 --> 00:00:07

yourself to Allah subhanho wa Taala The idea is that whatever

00:00:07 --> 00:00:10

you do, you're doing for the sake of Allah like, Okay, does Allah

00:00:10 --> 00:00:13

want me to do this? Would Allah like me to be doing this? Would

00:00:13 --> 00:00:16

Allah not like me to be doing this, you still may be going to

00:00:16 --> 00:00:19

work to earn a living for your family, and that's completely

00:00:19 --> 00:00:22

fine. You may still be cooking, you may still be cleaning, you may

00:00:22 --> 00:00:24

still be doing all of these things. But everything is now done

00:00:24 --> 00:00:27

for the sake of Allah that you understand. That's the only place

00:00:27 --> 00:00:30

where benefit comes from. So why why should we do this? When a

00:00:30 --> 00:00:34

person cuts away from everything and does things only for the sake

00:00:34 --> 00:00:37

of Allah not intrinsically for those things themselves, then the

00:00:37 --> 00:00:43

true one will actually have all of creation submit to you if you can

00:00:43 --> 00:00:46

make that exercise which is the difficult part and show Allah

00:00:46 --> 00:00:49

subhanaw taala our sincerity then Allah subhanaw taala will have

00:00:49 --> 00:00:52

things at your disposal. Allah will give you from where you never

00:00:52 --> 00:00:53

thought
