to whom in May a half Raja hoop no matter.
So, dear brothers and sisters, our dear friends, listeners,
this is a time when there's a few things that we need to resort to.
And our Dean has not left us alone in this regard.
But there's some very important aspects that we need to resort to
at this time, to remain sane,
to remain
in a state that we can continue and to make, make the most out of
the situation, tolerate this situation, deal with the situation
and inshallah use it to our benefits.
So we've had numerous talks on sober and patience. And sovereign
patience is easy. People understand that when a calamity is
upon you, we persevere.
We are patient, we understand that there's not much else we can do
anyway.
Allah subhanaw taala has afflicted us with this. It's a masiva. The
word Musa in Arabic means to hit the mark. So if we're afflicted
this, it means Allah subhanaw taala is intended this. In fact,
nothing in this world happens without Allah subhanaw taala as
will and power and decision anyway. And even the word though
we use it so frequently the word mercy but it's such a common term,
that we've kind of forgotten the literal meaning, but the literal
meaning is very important. So literal literal meaning in Arabic
of mercy, but comes from something which hits the mark. So when
somebody is firing at a range at a target, or when somebody is making
an effort to get somewhere and they reach their target, they say
a subject.
We in fact, we tell students when they, when they get something,
right, we say a subject, like you've hit the mark, you've got
it, right. So that's what a Saba means. And masiva means the thing
which hits its mark, the thing which is right, and it has to come
from Allah because everything is from Allah. So Allah knows the
state we're in. And he knows the reasons why he brought us into
this state. It's just we have to figure that out. So at this time,
we need to do sober. But the other thing that we need to do along
with the sober to make it even more beneficial, sober has to come
with Raja is an Arabic concept of Raja, Quranic concept. It's abused
in the Hadith. Essentially, all it means is hope, but a hope in Allah
subhanho wa taala. And that hope can only come about by
understanding who Allah is and why he does things, trying to
understand the wisdom behind why things happen in the world. Were
part of the world, it's going to happen. That's why Allah subhanaw
taala says in this verse of sorbitol, Sr, which I read
earlier,
that these are the people who try to find a means and an
intermediary, or some kind of worship or something else, by
which they can get closer to Allah subhanaw taala.
They hope in His rewards, you're a Jew Naramata they hope they have
hopes of his of his mercy. They have hopes in his mercy. That's a
very important characteristic for Muslims to have, that there must
be some mercy for the good people in this. Of course, those who are
to be punished in any situation. They will be punished and Allah
knows that. We just have to make sure that we are not of the
punishable ones. Those who are deserving of punishment. I don't
like to bring in a negative aspect to this but clearly there's a lot
of problem out there. People have all sorts of thoughts going
through their mind shaytan is running rampant to quit
it so vanilla, we need her Snowden personal van means a good opinion
about something. Remember, in any situation that we deal with, we
have to we can look at it in various different ways. Then among
people, you have several different types of people, you have those
who are on the one extreme of being so skeptical, so negative,
that anything they see, they actually look for the evil in it
first, they look for the negativity and at first, they will
never go towards the positive side of the positive interpretation.
They will always look at it must those two people a meeting
together, they must be hatching a plot, they must be speaking
against me. It's a really sad state of affairs, if somebody's
mind is polluted, overtaken overcome with this, because
they're constantly going to have negative thoughts. And these
people know themselves that they're like this, but they can't
get out of it, they need help. Then you've got the other other
side of things where they take things in.
Everything should be everything they take in a very positive
light, even if it's completely negative.
For the most part, comparing the two situations, the one who takes
things in the positive is probably better off, always, one does need
to take their precautions. So just to be optimistic about everything
in an unrealistic way, is not correct. We understand that from
verses of the Quran where Allah subhanaw taala talks about those
who do deeds and then they have hope in Allah.
So having just pure optimism without doing any deeds, we're
doing nothing showing nothing, you know, making no effort. And just
having this hope that oh, don't worry, ALLAH is forgiving, He is
Forgiving, but there are conditions under which he
forgives. There are reasons why he forgives. And aren't we supposed
to show something? Somebody's forgiving. So are we supposed to
try to challenge his forgiveness by not doing anything and you must
still forgive me because I don't do anything.
So one needs to understand that while Allah is the most forgiving,
the most frequently forgiving, most abundantly forgiving,
forgiving, forgiving of not just the minor but the most major
sense.
We have to do our part to make us worthy of that forgiveness.
Because Allah subhanho wa Taala along with being forgiving, also
has some other characteristics like the kahar, the Vanquisher,
the Munduk him, the Avenger, the Punisher, Allah subhanaw taala has
all of these things, the one from whom harm can come when he wants
it. So why do we have this notion of God as just being somebody
who's just going to forgive you and not do anything else? Why? How
do we limit Allah subhanaw taala to that characteristic, that's why
it's important to have a healthy dose of optimism, especially in
difficult times, especially in difficult times, optimism and hope
are very, very important. We do our part, we make an effort, but
we hope to Allah subhanaw taala that he will forgive us for our
shortcomings. So that's why we are doing our Ramadan, but we're
halfway there Isabella better balance. They are in Allah
subhanaw taala, as mentioned in this verse, that they are hoping
for His mercy. But at the same time, they also understanding that
he has all of these other names, and he can do all of these other
things. And so they are worried about his punishment.
Then, a very important Hadith that gives us an understanding.
There's a hadith by ibn Umar J in which the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam
went to visit this young man. This young man is about to die. So he
is in his last throes. And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam is asking him I mean, it's a terminal illness. He seems like
he's going to be dying soon. So the Prophet sallahu wa said Kay
photogenic. How are you finding yourself? How are you today?
What's your state Subhanallah this, this youth says, I hope in
Allah or messenger of Allah, I have hope in Allah or messenger of
Allah. But I do fear for my sins.
I'm fearing my sins, but I still have hope in Allah. That's the
balance.
This is the time to weed out and understand what our sins are, what
our wrongs are, but have hoping Allah
that hope in Allah, you might be thinking but maybe I'm one of the
punishable ones. Believe me if you have hope in Allah Inshallah, you
will not be of the punishable ones.
To have hope that Allah a true hope, while forgiveness while
understanding we have mistakes and wrongs and making an effort to
change them. That in itself is the right state of mind. The right
state of heart,
the right state of heart, and if Allah can give that to someone,
where they're remembering their wrongdoings, they're regretful.
They feel
that they've made a lot of mistakes.
And they feel vulnerable because of this. They feel worthy of
punishment, but they don't
The other hand, they also know all of the great characteristics and
the mercy that comes from Allah. If they've got that, then that's a
very good place to be. That's a very good place to be. So then,
when he said this, he says, I have hope in Allah rasool Allah, or
messenger of Allah, but I do fear for my sins. So the Prophet
salallahu alayhi salam gave him a huge amount of reassurance in sha
Allah, which can help so many today, there are so many today, I
mean, the number of deaths that we're hearing about on a frequent
basis, that's always happened. So historical reality of human beings
that they have to leave this and depart this world. But right now
we're hearing nearly every day somebody is dying related to
somebody we may know somebody who we may know a connection of.
So there's a lot of people who've lost family members who have lost
loved ones, they themselves are in fear. And there's a lot of other
people who are currently in fear and depression themselves. Just
look at this hadith the Prophet sallallahu Sallam turned to him.
And he said that this feeling that you've just explained last time
your own if he can be Abdun, fie, Mythili, huddle, molten,
especially when you're in this kind of end of life, state
vulnerable state, when you think you're gonna die. And you can
still have this kind of thought in your mind, of hoping and Allah but
obviously worried about your sins. He says, this state cannot come
about in this kind of a circumstance in anybody except
that Allah subhanho wa Taala will provide for him and bestow upon
him that which he is hoping for what Amanda who mean my half, and
will grant him safety and security from what he's fearing.
So that fear needs to be there. And that hope needs to be there,
then Allah will provide security from the fear and Allah subhanaw
taala will provide will gift us that which we hope in Him. That's
what Allah is, therefore that's what Allah is there for, to give
us to give to those He's just waiting for an excuse, is
reminding in the Quran over and over again, just waiting for an
excuse to show me that submission. Just show me that servitude, to
show me that you care, to show me that you believe to show me that
you have hope to show me you've got the right understanding, and
that you hope in me and you're fearful of what you've done wrong,
or what you may have done wrong. And I'll give you, I'll give you
I'll give you more than you can imagine. The last person out of
hellfire, the greatest of the sinners ever to live in this
world, from all the nations among all the nations before us when he
comes out of hellfire eventually after being purified, even he will
get a paradise paradise. The size of this world are 10 times the
size of this world according to the various generations.
That's Allah's mercy, and his reward, his amp wholeness, his
extensiveness the breadth of reward and the treasure that he he
has control over. It's amazing. Do not underestimate Allah. But you
have to have that hope.
That's why
a Raja the concept in Arabic of hope is essentially defined by
Allah as her through her Snell Vinay Billahi Tara
husen Avani Billahi to Allah a good opinion about Allah. A good
this is very important to understand Raja and Hurston have
been Arabic concepts, personal and means having a good opinion,
optimistic opinion about Allah, that he will accept our deeds.
And
he will grant us forgiveness for the wrongs that we have made Toba
from. So Toba is an essential characteristic, we do Tober we
repent. And then we we have hoped that Allah subhanaw taala will
forgive us. And Allah subhanho wa Taala will accept whatever little
deed that we've done, and even the Toba is a good deed. So we get
reward for doing the Toba not just forgiveness, but anybody who does
Toba as a tab as a repentant person, they actually get reward
for the job on top of it. So that's why when a person does seek
forgiveness for sins and repentance, they actually end up
with more deeds. The sins get cancelled, the deeds are
increased. I mean, there's Willa eco but they'll Allah who say to
Hassan, we have verses to that effect. But the ice what I see as
the underlying reasoning behind it is that whenever this person makes
Toba, he is fulfilling the Command of Allah. He is doing what a
servant needs to do.
Right he or she is following the Command of Allah of repenting from
the mistakes they've made. When you follow the Command of Allah
you rewarded you get closer to him. So through the sin, which you
did in inadvertently, in times of past, you make the Toba now, we
can actually come out of this problem that we're this this
disease that is going around this calamity that's going around, we
can all
come out better. And this is maybe what Allah subhanaw taala wants
from us, the Muslim ummah to finally wake up. And to increase
the number of those people who pray from whatever 510 people or
whatever the statistics are maybe 20 people, or 20%, maybe 40% of
people, Muslims actually pray around the world regularly, except
just Friday. You know, you always have more people who pray on
Friday, you have then a bit more people who may go to a janazah and
do a janazah prayer, then you'd have more people who do read
prayer, if we can get the people who do eat prayer to do every
prayer, even if it's not in the masjid, but actually start praying
five days, that's going to be a huge benefits. Can you imagine all
of that, because every time somebody prays, there is peace and
goodness that is engendered by that. It's a worship of Allah.
When a person worships Allah subhanaw taala, in any way, shape,
or form, especially with what he's commanded. And especially with
something as powerful as prayer, as indispensable as prayer, the
fact that Allah subhanaw taala made it obligatory upon us five
times a day when he knows we're going to be busy. Fasting is only
once a year. The God is also once a year, and that's if you've got
the money. You're not obliged. But he knows that prayer is something
which is very important for us. That's our manual of life. So
prayer is a must. Prayer is a must. And I'm not just
rhetorically saying that this is an important thing, we need to
turn to prayer Salaat Salaat. If we can get an increase in the
number of people who pray five times, then can you imagine the
Rama, the Mercy that's going to be engendered by that. When a person
prays, there's a mercy that descends, Allah looks upon such a
person with mercy and acceptance and blessing. Muslims need
blessings The world needs blessings. Humans need blessings,
who is going to provide that blessings except people of faith,
our philosophy, our understanding our belief system, our doctrine,
our theology tells us that there is a God is a creator created us
stole us to do certain things every Muslim believes that
everybody who every Muslim worth their soul who has an
understanding of their theology, a proper believer will understand
that even if they don't pray, let us make that a reality. Because by
that prayer in sha Allah, so much mercy will descend, this virus can
be deactivated, it can be lifted, it can be stopped, it can be
basically stopped tomorrow, if Allah so wills has happened in the
past, you've had scholars speaking about it where certain dollars
were made, certain other practices were initiated.
Just writing about Sierra, discussing seal of the prophets,
Allah and people becoming more knowledgeable and aware of the
spirit of the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam brought about so
much mercy because the Prophet salallahu Salam is the mercy of
the world.
I mean, it's actually said that there was a
ay wobba, one of these illnesses that was going around in the UP
area of India, and Hakimullah Manasa Vitani had started, when he
started writing his national tea, which is this amazing biography of
the Prophet Allah is very unique in the way he's the way he's doing
it. So when he had the time, he started working on it, when he
started working on it. Now, again, you can say this is correlation or
causation. You can call it whatever you want. It's an
observation, a phenomenon that was observed
that the illness diminished, the deaths diminished while he was on
in doing this work.
And then he stopped for some reason, he got distracted with
something here to do something else, and it increased again. So
then he decided that you will at least work for a short time, he'll
work at least on a few pages or something of this book. And it's
one of the most amazing Syrah books that I have read, because
what it does is that he actually brings about brings together all
the various narrations regarding many of the issues that person
went through, for example, marriage, the ascension, and it
talks about all the ahaadeeth and reconciles them to give an
understanding and harmonious understanding of what they mean
it's an amazing book. So
just by doing that, they observed the difference. That's a small,
that's just one thing that somebody was doing. We all have to
do something. We don't have to be like hockey moments, because the
God that he was writing this for, right that the God that was
providing the relief, Allah is still here, and he's our Lord, and
he has value for everybody. Allah values every person because we are
as bonds people. He says that the best of you are those who are the
best to his bondsman. The best of us are those who are best to his
people. If he is going to act so well, and treat so well. Those who
are good to others, then us ourselves the boss
As men of Allah, the slaves of Allah, Allah loves us. He just
wants us to show our love as well, to reciprocate that love. And you
will see that he will give us in huge amounts because he has
emptiness. Allah is not Allah. Allah has no Allah is full of
generosity. Allah is full of benevolence. Allah is the Wahab,
he is the frequent, the abundant and the greatest of givers that
says NIWA herb. This is a very important time, believe me, this
is a very important time to get the names of Allah with the
translation and focus on his names. That is one of the best
ways to get to know Allah more. So for example, when you are
administrating medicine to your loved ones at this time, and
they're sick, or you're taking medicine yourself, take it while
invoking his name. Yeah. Shafi. So when you're taking a medicine, or
you're applying medicine, so yeah, Shafi ishi. There are doors to
this effect, but at least minimally yeah Shafi.
When we seek in forgiveness, we ask for years before
we invoke Him by saying you have a full run we want something from
you who say Yeah, well herb, when we want forgiveness from him.
When we want
when we want tolerance from him. We again Yeah, Haleem or furbearer
when we when there's a subtle matter, and it needs sophisticated
attention. Yeah, Latif.
Listen, a name for everything. But unfortunately, our ignorance of
His Names is not very helpful. We're being deprived of a huge
resource, the amount of mercy and qualities of Allah that can be
invoked just by taking his name so please get a
get a collection of His Names with the translations we have. There's
numerous dollar books that have them. We have in in our
reflections of titles, you can get so many other dua books, you can
probably find them online with a good translation there are also
Imam Ghazali Rahim Allah has a book called MCSA, the asna sma
eleider SNA has been translated into English, a name on the book,
a book on the names of Allah subhanaw taala will be very
appropriate for us to get to understand who Allah subhanaw
taala is, you will see his multifaceted
entity, how he is in everything, how he does everything, how he's
involved in everything. In fact, there is nothing that he's not
involved in you can understand our comprehensive nature inshallah.
And that's why in Surah use of Allah subhanho wa Taala says in
the hula as your Rohilla he ill como calf your own, only the
complete disbelievers meaning who doesn't believe in Allah. Anybody
who doesn't believe in Allah, only they can be despondent of Allah's
mercy.
Nobody else can be if you believe in Him, He is there for you. He is
the merciful one he is the giving one reminds us that he's merciful
so many times a day. So how can somebody it's just not intuitive
idea.
Just doesn't make any sense is disingenuous. How can a person be
despondent? That's why hoping Allah is very important. And Allah
subhanaw taala says in the famous verses sort of Zoomer your your
earlier about the Alladhina software Allah and fusi him that
tahona to me Rahmatullah Oh my servants who have transgressed
against themselves who have gone beyond the measures, beyond what
is required for themselves. You must not be despondent, in the
Mercy of Allah, because Allah forgives all sins, all sins, gymea
Allah forgives everything. minor, major, as heinous as it may be, we
get questions. There's a sin I've committed and I've done it so many
times. I can't see forgiveness for it. That's just shaytaan giving.
That is a shaytaan providing a bad opinion about Allah. He's just
working on our ignorance of Allah, we have to revive our
understanding of Allah subhanho wa Taala is mercy. And this is the
best time and the most important time to revive our understanding
of Allah subhanaw taala is mercy. Then Allah says in the who who
will afford Rahim he's the old forgiving and the Merciful.
Another Hadith which is related by Imam Bukhari, the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Lama Hula, hula, hula Hulk, Allah
when he created creation, all creative beings when he created
them, he wrote,
and this is like a self prescription that this is a vow
you take upon yourself. This is like our mission statement.
Nothing is obligatory upon Allah.
But if somebody takes upon themselves a look, I'm going to be
nice to you from now. I'm going to be very tolerant of you. I'm gonna
do my best to forgive you. I'm going to be do my best to give you
every chance to give you every excuse. He doesn't have to do that
with his justice.
So the rule of justice in the world says that somebody does
something wrong, you can punish them.
They're eligible for punishment. But Allah says that no, I'm gonna
take, I'm going to give you a promise almost. And I'm going to
give you the hope that
in the raw data, the label of Adobe, and this is actually to
make it to show its impression he had written above the OSH,
this is the statement, this is the motto
that My Mercy is going to overcome my anger.
So I'm more likely to deal with something with mercy than with
anger.
Even when there's absolute justification to be angry
somewhere, I'm going to deal with mercy.
That doesn't mean there can't be any anger. But for the most part,
as far as possible, I'm going to deal with mercy. And Allah is the
most Clement and Allah has the greatest mercy. So how can that
not be? Then the Hadith that we read the other day where Allah
subhanaw taala split mercy as a as an idea into 100 parts, and only
one of those parts is basically spread across the world, across
the universe in every creative being. That's what they use. He
has still 99 So you can understand that.
Another one? Let's just look at how some of the Sahaba and
tampereen
understood this practice this implemented in their lives. So you
have
the great Derby, Sophia and authority.
Sophia 30 Rahim Allah actually once made a statement,
giving giving preference to the Mercy of Allah over over the mercy
of his own parents.
And the way he said it is this he says, more or Hibou a huge other
he surbey In a way.
The only Alamo and Allah Tabata Kawata Allah, or hammer beam in
Houma. Seriously, only somebody who's understood the names of
Allah and who's got the mighty for the Gnosis, the understanding of
Allah is through the Quran and Sunnah. Right we'll be able to see
this because otherwise everybody knows their parents are very
merciful to them. The probably the only people you can rely on to
sacrifice themselves for you to want better for you than them to
want to see you get ahead then themselves because of selfishness
that is generally inherent among people. So the only ones that
would be willing to put themselves in front of you and take the
bullet for you and to sacrifice themselves for you as your parents
and Sahabi this this this starbury, so Fiona thought he
understands this world. So he's willing noozle he knows it's a
reality anyway. But he makes that declaration that I'd rather let my
hisab and reckoning on the day of judgment be done by Allah than
even my parents.
When you have a case in court, you cannot summon your parents to be
your witnesses or your children. They're too close. There's too
much bias there.
There's too much self interest. There is not allowed, but knowing
that he knows Allah's mercy, and we can just hold on these are
people who read Hadith and Quran day in and day out. They know
Allah better than anybody else. And that's this. There's also
another understanding from for DailyBurn or al Rahim Allah.
He is on the Day of Arafah. They have Arafa and he's looking at the
the people in alpha. It's a day when people really get together
and they really do the worship.
It's the day that you will actually see where people do not
generally mess around in the Maidan of Arafa he sees the people
standing up and doing their walk off doing their standing and
crying and weeping and humbly in treating Allah subhanaw taala.
So he was somebody was standing next to me this is something
probably that dawned on him. But he's looking at all of this, that
he thought of Allah. He thought of Allah's mercy. He thought about
Allah's relationship with the people. He saw the people eager to
look for the Mercy of Allah seeking the Mercy of Allah. And he
says to this person next to him, he says our aid and the hurt Willa
Kalon walkie funa Allah Barbie Rajul Meenal agonia JACC Laguna
Dominican?
A Cornejo doom. Imagine all of these multiplicity of people is
huge swathes of people. This huge body and mass of people gathered
together, standing up. What pray, praising Allah seeking from Allah
seeking forgiveness seeking mercy. If these people in that same state
were to go to a person and just asked him for 1/6 of a DRAM, so
that's pennies, literally. That's pennies because the DRAM is
probably not even a pound today.
few pennies
With the guy, not give it to them even maybe just to get rid of them
you probably give it to him probably give them more than they
probably give them 100 times more like just just take this and go
like what difference does it make to me?
So look at the example A he thinks off about Allah that's how we need
to think of Allah.
This is an important point this is not from the Quran, this is not
this example is not in the Quran, sunnah. This is an example that
came in his mind based on his understanding of the Quran and
Sunnah. I'm sure each one of us can uniquely think about Allah in
a positive way like this with our own examples.
We've seen the Mercy of Allah in our lives.
So many times in our past history, where we've gotten things without
having expected it.
Trouble has disappeared, when we thought it wasn't going to
difficulties have become facilitated.
There are so many times that Allah has gifted us, but we never
thought about him. We didn't take that time to do Shakur and revive
our understanding of how great Allah is.
And that he is behind everything. Simple example, let's just say
that you are a store owner, you do business, whether online or
otherwise, just think about it. Every time you get a you get an
order. Every time you get a customer.
It's a very exciting moment.
Every time you get a customer is a very exciting moment.
Right? Because that's what you're doing business for. You want to
get rid of stuff.
You want to make the money and every sale
is part of your objective. So you're very excited. Now I believe
that every person who thinks of Allah at this moment that
Alhamdulillah I've got this order, Shakur, thank you, Allah,
gratitude, then not only going to are they going to enjoy the
profits of what they're doing, and the blessing of their business,
but Allah will give them a lot more. Because when you do sugar,
Allah gives you more.
These are the Islamic concepts that we need to revive in our
lives. Our lives are just empty, devoid. That's we why we run
around. We only find when things are going well. We only find we
only outwardly find when things are going well outside, but
internally there's a turmoil. That turmoil can be resisted can be
removed by just changing the way we look at things about Allah
subhanaw taala that's why he says I do not want to Fianna stories
that I do not want my parents to take my hisab my reckoning I'd
rather Allah have it because Allah Who Tabata Kavita Allah Illya and
the island because I completely know I know for sure that Allah
Allah, Most Blessed is he and Most High is he is more merciful to me
than them.
There are Hadith and verses that talk about the Mercy of Allah on
the Day of Judgment, whereas Allah says about people, yo Maja federal
Maru
min Aki he will be, he will be wa Sahiba de robbing your own wife,
your own spouse, who do anything for you, maybe in this world,
you've got so much love for them. But on that day, it's going to be
a bit different. It's going to be a lot different.
But what's amazing is that if you love somebody for the sake of
Allah, then they will be helpful to you on the Day of Judgment.
They're going to look out for you. If two people love each other for
the sake of Allah, then we hope they won't run away from one
another because we have incidents about that, which indicate that if
they get to Paradise, they're going to be looking for those
people who they love for that because it would not be any
selfishness in that. So that's why when you have love for anyone,
whether that be your parents or your children, or your spouse, it
should be for the sake of Allah.
Which basically means that you do not disobey Allah in your
relationship, or for your relationship or because of your
relationship. It's a pure relationship. So finally, I'm
going to just leave this hadith of Muslim with us just to just to go
around in our mind,
Leia Moulton,
Leia, Mouton, Hadoken, IL, WA who are your single vulnerable light,
simple as that none of you should die
when in a state that they do not have an excellent hope in Allah,
that they do not have beautiful hopes in Allah, that they do not
have the best hope in Allah. None of you should die, while allowing
yourself to have bad hopes in Allah. You cannot believe this to
the last minute. You have to train ourselves the way I explained
earlier. By just understanding how these Derby ended the examples
they came up with understanding the Mercy of Allah remembering
Allah so that when we actually die, we die in
No way that you know what? I'm happy to be going.
I'm happy to be going. Because remember, there's a dua of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam it's in it's in Al Hizbul
album, which says, Oh Allah, I seek your refuge from the mischief
of shaytaan at my death.
Because if a person is not strong than shaytaan will come and create
mischief at that time, give you different ideas,
provide a lot of despondency.
So that a person may say something even worse than that time and die
in the wrong state. That's why we keep making this dua and we keep
improving our understanding of Allah subhanaw taala. So that
Allah subhanaw taala can treat us with this mercy that is abundantly
available there anyway. May Allah subhanaw taala sisters, none of us
should die without this fear of without this without this feeling
of good hope in Allah subhanaw taala none of us should die
without this good hope in Allah subhanho wa Taala which we start
from now. So may Allah subhanho wa Taala grant us that hope and may
Allah subhanaw taala show us better days it has to be it has to
be as they say it has to get worse before it gets better. That's up
to Allah. But by after every night comes a day. That's the reality of
this world every night
after every night comes a day and sometimes the darkest portion of
the night is just before it gets bright.
So we ask Allah subhanaw taala that this is going to end but we
just want to come out of it better than we are before. And here we
have Ramadan also around the corner so that will inshallah help

solitudes of good reflection of Allah of becoming closer to you,
Oh Allah, you have given us more than so many others in this world,
you have given us abundantly of Allah, except from us, to not
allow us to use what you have given us. In your disobedience of
Allah allow us to use what you have given us in your obedience of
Allah. Those who are struggling with various different problems in
their life of Allah, we ask that you remove those problems, grant

the issues of Allah. Problems are inevitable in this world of Allah,

And to become further from you. Our Allah bless all of those who
are working hard even during this time to assist others. Oh Allah

so that your help can also come to us, of Allah grant us the Tofik

appropriate and most correct in everything that we do in this
life. But especially at this time, protect us from the shaytaan and
his mischief on our deathbed or Allah make our balsa our cover our
afterlife, excellent for us. Oh Allah we know we're asking you
that which you only give to your earlier but Allah we ask that you
also make us of your earlier and your friends. Our actions may not
be up to it. But Oh Allah, we asked you for Tofik we ask you for
forgiveness. We ask You for complete purity of Allah, we ask
you a special forgiveness, especially for those sins, which
are part of our life and we no longer consider them sins anymore.
Oh Allah grant us discerning and understanding of Allah, remove the
sins remove these sins remove these sins, especially those that
are preventing your mercy from coming upon us that has brought
this difficulty upon the ummah of Allah that has brought this
difficulty in this calamity upon the Ummah that has created the
darkness is how Allah we have at least a glimmer of hope we still
have Iman, we still have hope. And it is only this hope and it is
only light, as a small as that light as dim as
that light may be that can remove the darkness of Allah it's only
light that can remove darkness or Allah. That's why we have hope in
this Eman that we have, even if it's weak in our in our hearts
that it will remove this darkness. The darkness is of this world and
the darkness is of these calamities. And we asked, we asked
you Allah to strengthen this light in us, oh Allah we have HOPE Grant
us more hope. I would like step from us Subhan Allah because Allah
