They also discuss the use of "three" in English to express pride and desire, and the importance of finding the right person for a job. The speakers emphasize the importance of shaming and reproach in the context of shaping one's culture, and stress the importance of showing proper names and not giving them to anyone.

00:00:38 --> 00:00:41

My dear respected friends, our dear respected

00:00:42 --> 00:00:47

elders and our respected younger folk.

00:00:50 --> 00:00:53

The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam had two aspects

00:00:55 --> 00:00:56

when it came to his mission,

00:00:58 --> 00:01:02

the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam did Dawa. That will means to

00:01:02 --> 00:01:03

invite

00:01:04 --> 00:01:09

he did our which was to invite the people. The word in Arabic Dawa.

00:01:09 --> 00:01:12

There is also another similar word to it which comes from the same

00:01:12 --> 00:01:18

root term which is dua, DUA and Dawa. They both mean very, they

00:01:18 --> 00:01:22

come from a very similar route. In fact, the same route that will

00:01:22 --> 00:01:28

means to invite the people. And dua means to ask of Allah subhanaw

00:01:28 --> 00:01:31

taala if you want your data to be successful,

00:01:33 --> 00:01:37

if you want your invitation to others to be successful, you need

00:01:37 --> 00:01:41

to ask the Tofik of Allah subhanho wa taala. So the DUA has to be

00:01:41 --> 00:01:41

there.

00:01:42 --> 00:01:47

Mostly, we know about the Dawa, the invitation

00:01:48 --> 00:01:51

and the propagation of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his

00:01:51 --> 00:01:56

life. There are many sera books that discuss that and generally

00:01:56 --> 00:01:59

there's numerous talks that discuss how the Prophet sallallahu

00:01:59 --> 00:02:03

alayhi wa sallam conveyed the message of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada.

00:02:04 --> 00:02:08

We also know that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam had

00:02:08 --> 00:02:09

many doors.

00:02:10 --> 00:02:11

We also make dua,

00:02:12 --> 00:02:17

but what we want to understand today is how were the doors of the

00:02:17 --> 00:02:18

Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam

00:02:20 --> 00:02:25

my hope Inshallah, my dua my prayer to Allah is that, once we

00:02:25 --> 00:02:28

understand this, your DUA will not be the same again.

00:02:29 --> 00:02:34

In sha Allah, then it will infuse our doulas with the life that they

00:02:34 --> 00:02:35

need

00:02:36 --> 00:02:38

so that they can be more powerful in sha Allah.

00:02:40 --> 00:02:44

See, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, in his doors, what we

00:02:44 --> 00:02:47

understand is that from a literary perspective, if you look at it

00:02:47 --> 00:02:48

from a literary perspective,

00:02:50 --> 00:02:54

when you study literature, types of language and the way it's used,

00:02:54 --> 00:02:57

you have your horror, you have your romance, you have your

00:02:57 --> 00:03:03

dramas, you have your poetry, and you have the different genres of

00:03:03 --> 00:03:08

literature they call them in Arabic, when it comes to doors, we

00:03:08 --> 00:03:13

have a very specific genre, dua in itself is a very, very special way

00:03:13 --> 00:03:14

of saying something.

00:03:16 --> 00:03:18

There's a special art to doing this.

00:03:20 --> 00:03:22

I give you an give you an example.

00:03:23 --> 00:03:26

When I was growing up in Urdu,

00:03:27 --> 00:03:28

and in Gujarati

00:03:30 --> 00:03:35

I'm not sure if it's the same in Bengali, but when you make dua to

00:03:35 --> 00:03:40

Allah subhanho wa Taala in order do you say Allah to mu j the two

00:03:40 --> 00:03:40

Mujaddid

00:03:42 --> 00:03:46

now when you say two two is considered to be actually for

00:03:46 --> 00:03:48

normal person when you say two it's considered to be

00:03:49 --> 00:03:54

disrespectful in order to use the word up it's more respectful nine

00:03:54 --> 00:03:57

English it's all the same, you you you two older or younger, but when

00:03:57 --> 00:04:00

it comes to Oh to do with reality and other languages, in

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

Bangladeshi, you have separate words as well.

00:04:03 --> 00:04:07

So now, I used to always wonder that why are we addressing Allah

00:04:07 --> 00:04:12

subhanaw taala with the word two, as opposed to be up because you

00:04:12 --> 00:04:16

know, to me Jaden, it was only later that I discovered that this

00:04:16 --> 00:04:21

is this special category of expression, to make it so personal

00:04:21 --> 00:04:26

and so impersonal, no pretenses whatsoever. That in this

00:04:26 --> 00:04:29

particular position, when you're making dua to Allah, you can say

00:04:29 --> 00:04:29

to

00:04:31 --> 00:04:33

you can't say it in any other situation, otherwise, it'd be

00:04:33 --> 00:04:34

disrespectful.

00:04:35 --> 00:04:38

But in that particular situation, because you're supposed to be so

00:04:38 --> 00:04:42

intimate and so close, you're allowed to say that this is our

00:04:42 --> 00:04:45

languages, you're allowed to say certain things in a certain

00:04:45 --> 00:04:48

context, which should not be allowable in a different context,

00:04:48 --> 00:04:52

but in this context, is most appropriate and is the best way to

00:04:52 --> 00:04:54

do something. That's what you call eloquent.

00:04:55 --> 00:04:58

Now, moving away from that, if you look at the two R's of the Prophet

00:04:58 --> 00:05:00

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, each one of them

00:05:00 --> 00:05:01

is a masterpiece.

00:05:02 --> 00:05:06

Each one of them is so profound, because

00:05:08 --> 00:05:11

the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had a big task on his hand

00:05:12 --> 00:05:17

at his time, in terms of a human connection to Allah subhana wa

00:05:17 --> 00:05:20

Tada. There was a lot of misunderstanding, a lot of

00:05:20 --> 00:05:24

confusion. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam says a door or who

00:05:24 --> 00:05:27

will a brother dua is a brother.

00:05:28 --> 00:05:32

He also says, The DUA is more holy a brother is the essence of

00:05:32 --> 00:05:35

worship. When I first read that hadith, it was a bit difficult for

00:05:35 --> 00:05:39

me to understand what was meant, because I saw dua as a selfish

00:05:39 --> 00:05:44

expression of want. You are requesting Allah Oh Allah give me

00:05:44 --> 00:05:46

this Oh Allah make me like this. Oh, Allah give me this job. Oh,

00:05:46 --> 00:05:50

Allah give me this, give me that. Right. You're asking for something

00:05:50 --> 00:05:56

for yourself. What I saw a bar that as which it is, is devotion,

00:05:56 --> 00:05:59

like you're doing solid, you're doing some vicar. There's no,

00:05:59 --> 00:06:03

there's not nothing selfish about that. You're just showing an

00:06:03 --> 00:06:06

expressing a devotion to Allah subhanaw taala. That's what you

00:06:06 --> 00:06:12

call it Ibaadat. So how is dua which I saw as a selfish plea for

00:06:12 --> 00:06:17

things that I wanted, and it bothered. But this is what it is,

00:06:17 --> 00:06:21

when we do do our properly if we understand what a dua should be

00:06:21 --> 00:06:26

like and what it should contain, then we will understand that it is

00:06:26 --> 00:06:31

it is one of the greatest forms of worship, and how is that when we

00:06:31 --> 00:06:39

have lost all else, when we cannot go to anyone else. And we then

00:06:40 --> 00:06:45

show our humility, to express something for Allah subhanho wa

00:06:45 --> 00:06:48

Taala to Allah subhanaw taala, then we are actually expressing

00:06:48 --> 00:06:55

our idea, our servitude, I am your slave, I am in need, and my hands

00:06:55 --> 00:06:58

outstretched to you because it's only you that can assist me and

00:06:58 --> 00:07:03

help me in this regard. That is what is supposed to be an

00:07:03 --> 00:07:04

expression of

00:07:05 --> 00:07:10

my humility, to the creator and sustainer and provider of

00:07:10 --> 00:07:15

everything. That position is a very intense position of abdiel.

00:07:16 --> 00:07:19

That's why dua is essentially worshipped if it's done in the

00:07:19 --> 00:07:20

right way.

00:07:21 --> 00:07:26

Now, in Jah helliya times, Allah was there, Allah has always been

00:07:26 --> 00:07:30

there. In fact, he was believed in by the people, they believed in

00:07:30 --> 00:07:36

the highest being. However, they did not think they could access

00:07:36 --> 00:07:40

Allah directly. That's why they had all of these idols. It's just

00:07:40 --> 00:07:44

like, in your local, you know, locally, you can't get through to

00:07:44 --> 00:07:48

the Prime Minister, you have to go through your local MP or whatever

00:07:48 --> 00:07:51

the case is, it's very difficult to get to the big shots up there.

00:07:51 --> 00:07:56

Now they apply this to Allah little understanding that Allah

00:07:56 --> 00:08:00

despite his greatness is closer to everybody than their jugular vein,

00:08:00 --> 00:08:05

and he hears everything. So this was the misunderstanding. Number

00:08:05 --> 00:08:09

two, if you then look towards Greece, which was a much older

00:08:09 --> 00:08:13

tradition, the Hellenistic philosophical tradition, from the

00:08:13 --> 00:08:18

Platonic Aristotelian logic, Aristotelian philosophy, they

00:08:18 --> 00:08:23

believed in a Supreme Being, they believed in God, but he was called

00:08:23 --> 00:08:25

the unmoved mover, or the first cause.

00:08:27 --> 00:08:32

The problem is that between what their concept of God was as such,

00:08:32 --> 00:08:35

and between humanity and the world, they had all of these

00:08:35 --> 00:08:39

intermediaries in between, they had 10, they call them are called

00:08:39 --> 00:08:44

the intellects. And the last one that dealt with the affairs of the

00:08:44 --> 00:08:47

world was called the active intellect, which meant that again,

00:08:48 --> 00:08:51

you couldn't get directly to Allah you could not get directly to

00:08:51 --> 00:08:54

their first cause. There was always intermediaries in between

00:08:55 --> 00:09:00

the prophets Allah Lauryssens task was to teach people a number of

00:09:00 --> 00:09:04

things is that you can access Allah directly. So look how Allah

00:09:04 --> 00:09:08

subhanho wa Taala does it in the Quran in surah Zoomer Allah

00:09:08 --> 00:09:12

subhanaw taala says, What either hookey Allah who was the who is

00:09:12 --> 00:09:18

schema as global Levine Hola, yo, Mina, Bill our hero. What either

00:09:18 --> 00:09:21

who cares we're either look here Allah Xena mean Dooney is our whom

00:09:21 --> 00:09:26

yesterday she rune. When Allah alone is mentioned, the people who

00:09:26 --> 00:09:30

do not believe in the hereafter their face undergoes change.

00:09:31 --> 00:09:32

They don't like it.

00:09:33 --> 00:09:37

You know when you hear something you're not excited about how does

00:09:37 --> 00:09:41

your face become? That's what their situation was. However, when

00:09:41 --> 00:09:43

those besides Allah were mentioned that they used to believe in that

00:09:44 --> 00:09:47

you know, the idols and so on. They used to get excited because

00:09:47 --> 00:09:49

they felt that something was gonna come from them and not from Allah

00:09:49 --> 00:09:51

because Allah was to beyond

00:09:53 --> 00:09:56

that's why then Allah subhanho wa Taala says in Surah Al Baqarah

00:09:57 --> 00:09:58

another stage

00:09:59 --> 00:09:59

where either

00:10:00 --> 00:10:02

Hola Kariba the omniva in need Corrib

00:10:04 --> 00:10:06

OG without a dar either the en

00:10:09 --> 00:10:14

file yes the G Bulli will you know, be la Allah whom your schoon

00:10:15 --> 00:10:18

when My servants ask about me,

00:10:20 --> 00:10:22

then let them know that I'm close

00:10:24 --> 00:10:27

enough it doesn't even say let them know it just says I am close.

00:10:28 --> 00:10:32

That's the powerful expression of the Quran. When the My servants

00:10:32 --> 00:10:36

ask about me, I am close, then I am close.

00:10:38 --> 00:10:39

I respond

00:10:40 --> 00:10:44

to those who call upon me when they call upon me.

00:10:46 --> 00:10:50

Then Allah subhanho wa Taala to take people's attention away from

00:10:50 --> 00:10:56

all of these other fake intermediaries said Walter Roman

00:10:56 --> 00:11:01

Dooney Allah He Mala and Farooq Abdullah doorlock. Don't call on

00:11:03 --> 00:11:08

to all of these other things besides Allah, these other deities

00:11:08 --> 00:11:11

that you have taken besides Allah, who cannot benefit you and who

00:11:11 --> 00:11:14

cannot harm you. This was something deep down, they

00:11:14 --> 00:11:18

understood that they can't harm us and benefit us. The problem was

00:11:18 --> 00:11:22

narrative. Now, what does that mean? The problem was narrative.

00:11:22 --> 00:11:26

When you buy into a narrative, then you become blinded and fully

00:11:26 --> 00:11:30

convinced with that narrative. Then you interpret everything

00:11:30 --> 00:11:33

accordingly. I give you a few examples.

00:11:35 --> 00:11:39

In a program, I'm met somebody, it was an interfaith program and I

00:11:39 --> 00:11:43

met somebody, it was a Muslim woman. And she said to me that you

00:11:43 --> 00:11:47

look like my brother, meaning I looked like her brother. Don't you

00:11:47 --> 00:11:49

know my brother? He's a Mufti.

00:11:50 --> 00:11:53

I thought she's she was Shia background. So I thought, I don't

00:11:53 --> 00:11:56

know any Shia of these. Why would I know her brother? And she was

00:11:56 --> 00:11:59

quite convinced that you know, might you should know my brother.

00:12:00 --> 00:12:02

He is the Mufti. I said, Look, I don't know your brother. Right?

00:12:03 --> 00:12:05

And I didn't think much of it. I ignored it.

00:12:06 --> 00:12:09

A day or two later she asked me and she says you should know my

00:12:09 --> 00:12:10

brother. He is.

00:12:11 --> 00:12:16

He's a Mufti and he graduated in darlin Karachi that woke me up I

00:12:16 --> 00:12:19

said, Hold on, hold on. You don't get shears graduating from darlin

00:12:19 --> 00:12:21

Karachi. It's a whole different tradition. So what's going on

00:12:21 --> 00:12:23

here? So tell me what what are you? What are you talking about?

00:12:24 --> 00:12:27

So apparently, she she, she becomes here.

00:12:28 --> 00:12:34

And her brother was a Mufti of a particular city. I won't mention

00:12:34 --> 00:12:36

his name. And I've been to the city and I know then I discovered

00:12:36 --> 00:12:38

that I know her other brother who's in Dublin

00:12:41 --> 00:12:43

because I did tarawih in the area many, many years ago.

00:12:45 --> 00:12:48

Wow. So I asked her the story. I said, what happened? I said, Well,

00:12:48 --> 00:12:53

she had a friend at university who was here and who told her a number

00:12:53 --> 00:12:53

of things.

00:12:56 --> 00:12:58

One of the gripes and the complaints was that

00:13:01 --> 00:13:04

you see, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam had a piece of land had

00:13:04 --> 00:13:04

some land,

00:13:06 --> 00:13:10

that he would take expenses from for his family and so on, and he

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

would give sadaqa, etc. After the Prophet salallahu Salam departed

00:13:13 --> 00:13:17

this world 14 Out of the Allahu anha, came to Al Bakr, Siddiq, or

00:13:17 --> 00:13:21

the Allah one. Now there's a famous Hadith, which is that from

00:13:21 --> 00:13:23

the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam that we,

00:13:25 --> 00:13:30

group of Prophets, we congregation of prophets do not leave behind

00:13:30 --> 00:13:35

inheritance, that which we leave behind this knowledge. And that's

00:13:35 --> 00:13:39

for the whole Ummah, and you can take as much of the inheritance as

00:13:39 --> 00:13:42

you want, it's open to all in terms of substance.

00:13:43 --> 00:13:46

We don't leave any inheritance, the well known Hadith

00:13:47 --> 00:13:49

when Fatima or the Alon, she didn't know about this, it seems

00:13:49 --> 00:13:53

she came and she asked for the land, discussing with obika The

00:13:53 --> 00:13:53

Allah one.

00:13:54 --> 00:13:56

And Albuquerque alone explained the Hadith to her.

00:13:59 --> 00:14:00

And then she went away.

00:14:01 --> 00:14:07

Now, the narrative here is, this was an injustice.

00:14:08 --> 00:14:12

This was an injustice against the family of the Prophet sallallahu

00:14:12 --> 00:14:17

alayhi wa sallam, and he get people evoke people into anger and

00:14:17 --> 00:14:21

sadness. And they build a whole thing against his O'Meara. They

00:14:21 --> 00:14:23

did the same thing afterwards.

00:14:25 --> 00:14:28

Thus, Abu Bakr and Omar they were against what the Allah wanted,

00:14:28 --> 00:14:30

they were against the Prophet sallallahu Salman, his family.

00:14:32 --> 00:14:35

This is an I said, this is a narrative you've bought into why

00:14:35 --> 00:14:37

don't you look at it a different way, that this was what the

00:14:37 --> 00:14:41

prophets Allah had said, this was a well known narration. And this

00:14:41 --> 00:14:42

is what it was.

00:14:43 --> 00:14:46

It just depends on what you buy into. And once you buy into

00:14:46 --> 00:14:49

something you become blinded, give you another example. One of the

00:14:49 --> 00:14:53

biggest examples of this is Shavon. shaytaan sees himself made

00:14:53 --> 00:14:57

from fire. He's worshipped Allah all throughout. He's been a big

00:14:57 --> 00:14:59

devotee. He's been worshipping Allah

00:15:01 --> 00:15:05

But then when Adam Alayhis Salam is created from soil, his logic

00:15:05 --> 00:15:11

works like this fire rises, whereas soil is lowly. Why should

00:15:11 --> 00:15:14

I prostrate in front of him? That's one narrative. That's one

00:15:14 --> 00:15:17

way of looking at something. Another way of looking at it would

00:15:17 --> 00:15:18

have been so many other ways

00:15:19 --> 00:15:25

that God created both of us. God wants me to prostrate and humility

00:15:25 --> 00:15:27

and submission is the greatest thing. I should do that that's

00:15:27 --> 00:15:32

another narrative. Another narrative is another you can say,

00:15:33 --> 00:15:37

purely scientific narrative is okay, fire leaves ashes in its

00:15:37 --> 00:15:45

weak, fire destroys, fire wreaks havoc. Soil doesn't do that soil

00:15:45 --> 00:15:49

grows gives birth to things. So couldn't have looked at it that

00:15:49 --> 00:15:54

way. Wasn't there a different way of looking at it? There's a person

00:15:54 --> 00:16:00

that I know who's from a Pakistani background. His daughter got

00:16:00 --> 00:16:05

married against the parents wishes to a Bangladeshi brother 10 years

00:16:05 --> 00:16:07

ago, they've got three children now.

00:16:08 --> 00:16:12

They all understand it was a mistake. Right? They all

00:16:12 --> 00:16:16

understand it was a mistake, right? mistake in the sense that

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

it's made so many people unhappy. It's not a mistake, religiously

00:16:19 --> 00:16:22

speaking. But culturally speaking, it was a mistake in there. Because

00:16:22 --> 00:16:26

this father now does not speak want to speak to his daughter,

00:16:26 --> 00:16:30

even after 10 years. Even after three children, he doesn't want to

00:16:30 --> 00:16:31

see the children.

00:16:32 --> 00:16:34

What kind of a human is this?

00:16:35 --> 00:16:39

What narrative has he bought into his narrative is that this goes

00:16:39 --> 00:16:43

against my culture. Because my daughter should have got married

00:16:43 --> 00:16:45

to my my nephew.

00:16:46 --> 00:16:50

She didn't do that. Okay, fine. What they did was wrong. I agree.

00:16:50 --> 00:16:53

Right? Not religiously wrong as such, but you have to listen to

00:16:53 --> 00:16:55

your prayers. You have tried to make everybody happy. And that's

00:16:55 --> 00:16:59

understandable. But come on, haven't you got a heart? Don't you

00:16:59 --> 00:17:02

want to be forgiven as well by Allah? Don't you make mistakes?

00:17:04 --> 00:17:07

Is your culture more important than your daughter and your blood?

00:17:08 --> 00:17:12

Your cultures narrative is more valuable to you than your blood

00:17:12 --> 00:17:17

relative? Like, what's your problem? Okay, you can be upset

00:17:17 --> 00:17:20

with them for six months, maybe for one year, maybe for three

00:17:20 --> 00:17:23

years. But for 10 years after having children.

00:17:26 --> 00:17:28

This is what Allah wanted. Now, Hadas finish you've had your

00:17:28 --> 00:17:30

patients, Allah will give you for your patience.

00:17:31 --> 00:17:33

This is the problem with narrative.

00:17:34 --> 00:17:37

This is the problem with narrative. And you got the wrong

00:17:37 --> 00:17:40

narrative, you will become blinded by it.

00:17:42 --> 00:17:45

And this is what happens with atheists. They take on the wrong

00:17:45 --> 00:17:48

narrative, even if their heart calls out to God at moments at

00:17:48 --> 00:17:52

sensitive moments. But intellectually, they're unable to

00:17:52 --> 00:17:56

surmount the intellectual challenge of their mind. And thus

00:17:56 --> 00:18:01

they continue to deny and yet their heart calls out. And this is

00:18:01 --> 00:18:04

the problem with narratives. Now think about it. Why did shaytan

00:18:04 --> 00:18:06

not think about the other narrative?

00:18:08 --> 00:18:13

It's all Tofik. It's all related to divine guidance and divine

00:18:13 --> 00:18:18

enablement. We have to just be so satisfied and thankful to Allah

00:18:18 --> 00:18:21

subhanaw taala that he has given us in sha Allah the right

00:18:21 --> 00:18:27

narrative. Otherwise, what difference what what? How easy it

00:18:27 --> 00:18:30

would have been for us to have had another narrative.

00:18:32 --> 00:18:34

Where else does it come from? Except Allah subhanho wa taala.

00:18:35 --> 00:18:40

Somebody in our family has made dua that's why I mentioned that if

00:18:40 --> 00:18:44

people respect the knowledge, respect the books of and respect

00:18:44 --> 00:18:48

the masjid, respect the Allah ma, then even if Allah doesn't give

00:18:48 --> 00:18:51

them knowledge, he will put it into their children and into their

00:18:51 --> 00:18:55

progeny. These are ways of deriving the tofi from Allah

00:18:55 --> 00:19:01

subhanaw taala. Otherwise, our iman is open. Our Iman is open to

00:19:01 --> 00:19:02

its vulnerable.

00:19:05 --> 00:19:08

May Allah be thanked for the narrative that He's given us?

00:19:09 --> 00:19:12

Otherwise, so many other narratives exist? Moving back to

00:19:12 --> 00:19:12

our topic?

00:19:16 --> 00:19:21

The prophets Allah, Allah subhanho wa Taala was now diffusing this

00:19:21 --> 00:19:26

whole confusion, unraveling it then Allah subhanho wa Taala says,

00:19:27 --> 00:19:29

What color a boo Komodo Rooney istnieje Blackcomb.

00:19:30 --> 00:19:34

Your Lord says Call on Me and I will answer you. He's giving a

00:19:34 --> 00:19:39

command now. After his unraveling everything is commanding. Then he

00:19:39 --> 00:19:43

says in the Lavina you're stuck Bureau Anna and Eva that he said

00:19:43 --> 00:19:46

Hello Anna Johanna Murdock hearing those people who think they're too

00:19:46 --> 00:19:53

big to be obedient to me to devote themselves to me, then they are

00:19:53 --> 00:19:55

we're going to enter them into the hellfire.

00:19:56 --> 00:19:59

So this is now a warning the prophets of the Lord isms

00:20:00 --> 00:20:03

isn't a hadith manlam Yes Adela, Yehuda Valley whoever doesn't ask

00:20:03 --> 00:20:05

Allah Allah gets angry on it

00:20:06 --> 00:20:10

now he's making it very clear that you need to ask Allah that's very

00:20:10 --> 00:20:10

important

00:20:12 --> 00:20:16

now let us look at the doors of the Prophet let's learn how to

00:20:16 --> 00:20:21

make dua you know the problem is that our to us today are a list of

00:20:21 --> 00:20:21

dictations

00:20:23 --> 00:20:26

we finished Salado whenever we're going to make dua, O Allah

00:20:27 --> 00:20:31

except my doors of Allah give me my job that job I'm looking for

00:20:31 --> 00:20:35

Allah make it easy for me all I need to get my daughter married

00:20:35 --> 00:20:37

find the right person for me. There's that person were

00:20:37 --> 00:20:40

interested Allah turned his heart towards this is the right person.

00:20:41 --> 00:20:45

Oh Allah, I need that phone that call I need. I need that raise in

00:20:45 --> 00:20:46

my job I need.

00:20:47 --> 00:20:51

We're just basically a whole list of things as though Allah is there

00:20:51 --> 00:20:55

waiting with the list a pen. Okay, fine. Yes, yes, yes, yes. And I'll

00:20:55 --> 00:20:58

do this for you. Essentially, this is this is the way I will do

00:20:58 --> 00:21:02

answer. We think it's silly. And then when it doesn't get accepted,

00:21:02 --> 00:21:05

we get upset. How can we didn't do it? Like he said, Our slave or

00:21:05 --> 00:21:08

something. He's our servant. He didn't do the job today for me.

00:21:09 --> 00:21:14

I've told him 10 times. I've made the order 10 times and it hasn't

00:21:14 --> 00:21:14

been accepted.

00:21:15 --> 00:21:19

Allah has the whole nother arm of the world to look after. We're

00:21:19 --> 00:21:24

just a small element within this whole quantum world of

00:21:24 --> 00:21:29

interconnected beings. We want this this that and the other. Does

00:21:29 --> 00:21:33

it fit into Allah's grand plan and decree of the entire world?

00:21:33 --> 00:21:36

Because whatever he gives us is going to have an possible impact

00:21:36 --> 00:21:40

on something else. Is it the right thing for us? Is it harmful for

00:21:40 --> 00:21:43

us? Is it good for us? That's why doctors are always examining the

00:21:43 --> 00:21:46

act of dua is always going to be accepted, we're going to get

00:21:46 --> 00:21:53

something for it, either what we asked for now or later, or if it's

00:21:53 --> 00:21:56

inappropriate for us right now, we won't get it, but we'll be given

00:21:56 --> 00:21:58

something else or a removal of a calamity.

00:22:01 --> 00:22:04

Otherwise, we'll be giving it to a given in the Hereafter, which

00:22:04 --> 00:22:06

would be the most valuable option, though. That's not what we

00:22:06 --> 00:22:08

generally want. Because we want it now.

00:22:09 --> 00:22:13

Right? So there's always benefit in doing dua, but we have to

00:22:13 --> 00:22:18

understand that it has to fit into Allah's grand plan. And maybe this

00:22:18 --> 00:22:22

job that I'm looking for is bad for that grand plan and is bad for

00:22:22 --> 00:22:26

me. I may become more arrogant if I stopped making that higher

00:22:26 --> 00:22:28

salary right now and I'm too young.

00:22:29 --> 00:22:33

Right this is gonna be so many different reasons. So now when you

00:22:33 --> 00:22:35

look at the Prophet sallallahu Radiosondes dua

00:22:37 --> 00:22:39

look at understand where it's coming from.

00:22:40 --> 00:22:42

We have Allah the Creator,

00:22:43 --> 00:22:47

who is the giver of everything. He is the one who you're going to

00:22:47 --> 00:22:51

call upon the one calling upon him and supplicating is the Prophet

00:22:51 --> 00:22:56

Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. He is a prophet. He is a

00:22:56 --> 00:23:01

Rasul. He is the Most Beloved of all of humanity, all of creation

00:23:01 --> 00:23:05

to Allah subhanho wa taala. He also knows Allah more than anybody

00:23:05 --> 00:23:10

else. He knows what invokes Allah's mercy. He knows what gets

00:23:10 --> 00:23:16

Allah to give. He knows how to convince Allah, and he has the

00:23:16 --> 00:23:18

greatest level of servitude.

00:23:19 --> 00:23:23

Can you think about any other persons whose DUA and

00:23:23 --> 00:23:26

communication with Allah could be any more better than that?

00:23:28 --> 00:23:31

He's got it all made. On top of that. The Prophet sallallahu

00:23:31 --> 00:23:36

alayhi wa sallam was the most eloquent being his Arabic was the

00:23:36 --> 00:23:42

most profound, most effective, most eloquent, you couldn't have

00:23:42 --> 00:23:45

anything. That's why when you look at the doors of the prophets,

00:23:45 --> 00:23:48

Allah, some every single one of them, you can't fault them for

00:23:48 --> 00:23:53

their splendor, for their language for their effectiveness for their

00:23:53 --> 00:23:56

brevity, every day of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam, in fact,

00:23:56 --> 00:23:59

every word of the person but especially as though as they are

00:23:59 --> 00:24:03

comprehensive, they are effective. They are profound in their

00:24:03 --> 00:24:03

meaning.

00:24:05 --> 00:24:10

They are a miracle on their own. If you look at it, in themselves,

00:24:10 --> 00:24:13

the prophets Allah son was extremely fluent in his doors.

00:24:13 --> 00:24:19

He's very forceful, he is vivid, he is moving. He is expressive.

00:24:19 --> 00:24:24

All of these characteristics. It's highly appropriate, highly

00:24:24 --> 00:24:29

articulate. He is his language is smooth and facile. His speech is

00:24:29 --> 00:24:33

deeply moving and evocative. This is what characterizes the words

00:24:33 --> 00:24:37

and expressions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. The

00:24:37 --> 00:24:41

reason is that every dua of the Prophet salallahu Salam is coming.

00:24:41 --> 00:24:46

It's filled with it encompasses the light of prophecy, as a

00:24:46 --> 00:24:51

prophet, it has the conviction and determination of a messenger and

00:24:51 --> 00:24:56

that the highest messenger and along with all of that, it has the

00:24:57 --> 00:25:00

appropriate and effective expression of

00:25:00 --> 00:25:04

The perfect and servant of Allah subhanho wa taala. You cannot have

00:25:04 --> 00:25:08

that combination in anybody else. One who is a prophet, a messenger

00:25:09 --> 00:25:13

and abd par excellence. That's why his doors are going to be the

00:25:13 --> 00:25:16

greatest. And I will show you a few of these to us today, the

00:25:16 --> 00:25:20

doors of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam are of two types.

00:25:20 --> 00:25:24

In general, you've got the very specific two hours before eating

00:25:24 --> 00:25:28

Bismillah albaraka. Tila, after eating before sleeping before

00:25:28 --> 00:25:33

wudu, etc. These are specific occasion doors for that particular

00:25:33 --> 00:25:37

situation. Then you've got the comprehensive doors, the doors

00:25:37 --> 00:25:41

which ask for general things, if you look at any one of these

00:25:41 --> 00:25:46

general doors, the majority of them are such that if just that

00:25:46 --> 00:25:51

one two hours to be accepted for us, our dunya and akhira is

00:25:51 --> 00:25:52

sorted.

00:25:54 --> 00:25:58

They are so short, but they encompass the prosperity of this

00:25:58 --> 00:26:04

world and the hereafter. They contain within it the success of

00:26:04 --> 00:26:07

both worlds every single one of them, and I'll show you some of

00:26:07 --> 00:26:10

them. But then we need to look at the way the prophets also made

00:26:10 --> 00:26:14

dua. And that's what we need to learn, then we will see that our

00:26:14 --> 00:26:16

doors will be accepted, we have to set the scene.

00:26:18 --> 00:26:20

So the Prophet sallallahu Radiosondes, draw from the

00:26:20 --> 00:26:24

perspective that they are spiritual manifestations. At the

00:26:24 --> 00:26:27

same time, they're perfect from a literary perspective. You can't

00:26:27 --> 00:26:32

fault them. Clear and lucid, flowing and complete free of any

00:26:32 --> 00:26:37

pretenses goes directly to the point uses the right words to

00:26:37 --> 00:26:41

invoke the right name of Allah at the right time.

00:26:45 --> 00:26:47

You can tell that it's somebody who's got great pain for the

00:26:47 --> 00:26:52

Ummah, when you listen to his daughters, a great zeal, a high

00:26:52 --> 00:26:57

level of Malefor knowledge of Allah subhanaw taala. And then

00:26:57 --> 00:27:00

profoundly eloquent, you can just imagine what that speech is going

00:27:00 --> 00:27:03

to be like. Let us start with one dua.

00:27:04 --> 00:27:08

And it is quite unfortunate for those of us who don't understand

00:27:08 --> 00:27:12

Arabic directly, because you can't appreciate the language that's

00:27:12 --> 00:27:16

used, I will translate it, I'll try to do the best job that I can.

00:27:16 --> 00:27:21

But if you understood it directly through the Arabic, it would just

00:27:21 --> 00:27:25

Subhanallah it will have your hair standing on end. That's how

00:27:25 --> 00:27:28

beautiful these two are. Let's just start with the two out of

00:27:28 --> 00:27:28

five.

00:27:29 --> 00:27:34

Now, to understand the context, because every speech that you say

00:27:34 --> 00:27:38

that you do, that you utter, comes at a particular particular

00:27:38 --> 00:27:43

situation. There are reasons why you say that, that creates the

00:27:43 --> 00:27:47

reason to say those words. The Prophet sallallahu Sallam has

00:27:47 --> 00:27:50

become weary of the people of Makkah, that persecute being

00:27:50 --> 00:27:53

persecuted. So he goes to five, which is the second most

00:27:53 --> 00:27:57

influential city, there are three tribes or three leaders or three

00:27:57 --> 00:27:59

leaders down there, to try to speak to them, if you could get

00:27:59 --> 00:28:02

support for them from them. hamdulillah it would help the

00:28:02 --> 00:28:06

cause. However, when he goes there, unfortunately, it's not

00:28:06 --> 00:28:09

successful. At the end as he's leaving the city. There are

00:28:09 --> 00:28:14

children who are sent behind him to throw stones at him and thus he

00:28:14 --> 00:28:19

is blooded. He just done his best. He went out of his way to go

00:28:19 --> 00:28:25

there. He's come back and he feels the failure, the dejection and the

00:28:25 --> 00:28:29

rejection. What is his dog going to be like at that time? What your

00:28:29 --> 00:28:31

what would your and my daughter would be at that time?

00:28:33 --> 00:28:35

Our life done my best. What else can I do?

00:28:36 --> 00:28:38

Right? They don't get it.

00:28:39 --> 00:28:41

This is the daughter of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

00:28:41 --> 00:28:47

sallam. He says Allahumma inni sashco Darfur Kuwaiti working

00:28:47 --> 00:28:50

letter helicity wa an ER nurse.

00:28:51 --> 00:28:56

He starts offices, Allah, unto you do I complain

00:28:57 --> 00:28:59

of the weakness of my strength?

00:29:01 --> 00:29:04

That's how it starts. The weakness of my strength.

00:29:05 --> 00:29:09

The paucity of my strategies, I didn't have a strategy

00:29:12 --> 00:29:16

and my loneliness before men, I'm humiliated in their sight Hawa any

00:29:16 --> 00:29:22

other nurse. That's how he starts. Then he says, under our hammer raw

00:29:22 --> 00:29:27

he mean, you are the Most Merciful of the merciful ones. And the

00:29:27 --> 00:29:31

rubble, Mustafa Athene, look at the words he's using the names of

00:29:31 --> 00:29:35

Allah that he's calling Allah with, not just Oh Allah, Oh Allah.

00:29:35 --> 00:29:39

I mean, Allah has a very powerful name but he has 99 and more names

If you do all of these things, as long as you're happy and not angry

00:31:20 --> 00:31:24

what do I ask you for through that mean a year Hila Allah Johanna

00:32:04 --> 00:32:05

book

00:32:06 --> 00:32:11

that your anger descend upon me. Oh yen Zilla be Saha took or your

00:32:24 --> 00:32:27

You have the right to continue to tell me off and reproach me or

00:32:27 --> 00:32:32

punish me as you want. until you are satisfied. What are Howler

00:32:32 --> 00:32:37

What are Quwata illa biLlah and there is no power to do good or

00:32:37 --> 00:32:41

ability to refrain from evil except through you. That's what

00:32:41 --> 00:32:42

you call the dua of a prophet.

00:32:45 --> 00:32:51

Now moving on, let's look at the dua of artifacts now davara third,

00:32:51 --> 00:32:56

this is SubhanAllah. In Ramadan, the shayateen are locked up. We

00:32:56 --> 00:33:00

feel the benefits in hajj on the day of Arafa Zahara to market him,

00:33:01 --> 00:33:05

the shayateen is not locked up. But the amount of Mercy that's

00:33:05 --> 00:33:08

descending is so much that shaytaan gets totally perplexed

00:33:09 --> 00:33:12

and becomes despondent that today I can't infect anybody here today.

00:33:13 --> 00:33:18

That's the time is the time when every moment of it is so valuable

00:33:18 --> 00:33:21

and so precious that you can take the worst of sinners and make them

00:33:21 --> 00:33:24

into the greatest Olia of Allah. If they do the right thing and

00:33:24 --> 00:33:28

that time, that's how powerful that time is. What would the

00:33:28 --> 00:33:30

Prophet sallallahu was do RB on that day?

00:33:31 --> 00:33:33

Think about it. This is his dua.

00:33:35 --> 00:33:40

Now ponder over these words. He starts he says hola Houma in Nikka

00:33:40 --> 00:33:44

Tessmer Ocala Amin Ouattara McCarney, what I learned was

00:33:44 --> 00:33:46

Saturday what I learned it.

00:33:47 --> 00:33:51

Does he ask anything yet? No, he's just setting the scene. Oh Allah.

00:33:51 --> 00:33:56

You are listening to me. You can hear what I say. You can see my

00:33:56 --> 00:34:00

state you're seeing my state right now. And you know, everything

00:34:00 --> 00:34:05

about me, both the hidden and the apparent lie off. I like a shape

00:34:05 --> 00:34:09

or memory. Nothing of my affair is hidden and concealed upon you.

00:34:10 --> 00:34:10

Nothing.

00:34:12 --> 00:34:16

He doesn't still start asking what ANOVA is will fucking

00:34:17 --> 00:34:22

and I am the afflicted and the poor one. I am the poor and

00:34:22 --> 00:34:28

afflicted one. I'll Mr. Heath, l Mr. GL, the one who is calling for

00:34:47 --> 00:34:48

00:34:50 --> 00:34:53

You don't have to establish any proof against me. I am confessing

00:34:53 --> 00:34:56

my sin already. I am this is my state.

00:34:57 --> 00:34:59

Again, he doesn't stop asking

00:35:00 --> 00:35:06

Then he says, Look, I asked you must Allah tell me scheme? I asked

00:35:06 --> 00:35:11

you like the asking of a destitute one. Have you seen how destitute

00:35:11 --> 00:35:15

people ask? They make a certain face? They use certain words to

00:35:15 --> 00:35:21

evoke your emotion. Right? They're quite professionalism because they

00:35:21 --> 00:35:24

need to try to evoke your mercy and your revulsion by the way they

00:35:24 --> 00:35:29

screw up their face and so on. Right? But I asked you, like the

00:35:29 --> 00:35:34

destitute asks, What up the hero ileka If the halal Muslim is very

00:35:34 --> 00:35:40

ill? And I pray to you humbly I call upon you humbly. Like the

00:35:40 --> 00:35:45

calling of the humiliated sinner, the sinner who's lost, he's been

00:35:45 --> 00:35:51

humiliated. What can his door be like? totally broken. Now he's

00:35:51 --> 00:35:53

only got Allah because everybody else knows.

00:35:55 --> 00:35:57

00:36:13 --> 00:36:19

the dua of the one who is whose neck is submitted in front of us,

00:36:19 --> 00:36:22

humbled in front of you, who is

00:36:23 --> 00:36:27

tears are flowing for you. Whose whole body

00:36:29 --> 00:36:32

has succumbed to you. And who's knows is rubbing the ground for

00:36:32 --> 00:36:33

you.

00:36:34 --> 00:36:39

Now he starts his door. In fact, Allah Humala that your only be dua

00:36:39 --> 00:36:40

Iike Sharqiya

00:36:43 --> 00:36:48

Oh Allah do not make me a failed one in terms of my doors

00:36:50 --> 00:36:55

don't make me deprived in my two hours, work on the roof and Rahima

00:36:55 --> 00:37:01

and make me of those and know and be most merciful and forgiving for

00:37:01 --> 00:37:09

me. Yeah, Hieronymus Olean where Hiral Martine oh the Best of those

00:37:09 --> 00:37:13

who can be asked and the Best of those who give. Now you think you

00:37:13 --> 00:37:16

make that door? You think it's not going to be answered? You think

00:37:16 --> 00:37:19

Allah won't give in? You're saying Oh Allah, you're the best of those

00:37:19 --> 00:37:22

who can be asked and the Best of those who can give?

00:37:23 --> 00:37:28

Do we know how to make dua? Have we ever made a proper dua in sha

00:37:28 --> 00:37:32

Allah after today you do as will never be the same. This is how you

00:37:32 --> 00:37:35

make a DUA, you set the scene you use the right words. For example,

00:37:35 --> 00:37:38

if you've got a difficulty, there is something that's just not

00:37:38 --> 00:37:41

opening up for you. You use the name Yeah, Fatah

00:37:43 --> 00:37:48

open opener. You got a complicated issue. Something very subtle.

00:37:48 --> 00:37:49

Yeah, Latif.

00:37:51 --> 00:37:55

Ya food Yeah, how far yeah, half of our federal how far her food,

00:37:56 --> 00:38:00

three words, all from the same meaning, forgive her behalf. It

00:38:00 --> 00:38:03

means the Forgiver in general, are far means the one who abundantly

00:38:03 --> 00:38:07

forgives even the greatest of sins, and are for the one who

00:38:07 --> 00:38:09

forgives over and over and over again.

00:38:10 --> 00:38:15

Different names. But similar mean to just show you what Allah is.

00:38:15 --> 00:38:19

One name would never have suffice. Allah is too comprehensive. An

00:38:19 --> 00:38:22

entity for one name to have sufficed, though Allah does

00:38:22 --> 00:38:24

suffice everything the name Allah.

00:38:28 --> 00:38:29

The next door

00:38:30 --> 00:38:30

is this one.

00:38:32 --> 00:38:34

Allahumma inni Abduch

00:38:35 --> 00:38:40

Oh Allah, I am your servant. That's how he starts. Now, isn't

00:38:40 --> 00:38:45

that obvious? Doesn't Allah know that? I am your servant. He starts

00:38:45 --> 00:38:50

like this, Oh Allah, I am your servant. I am your slave. Then he

00:38:50 --> 00:38:57

says, What? No Abdic word no. ametek I am also the son, the

00:38:57 --> 00:39:02

offspring of your male servant and of your female servant. So even my

00:39:02 --> 00:39:06

parents are your slaves. I got nothing going for me. I'm your

00:39:06 --> 00:39:09

slave. My parents are your slave as well.

00:39:12 --> 00:39:17

Then he carries on he says now CRT biddick my follow up is in your

00:39:17 --> 00:39:21

hand. When you got somebody's forelock. You're in their control.

00:39:21 --> 00:39:23

You're you have control over them.

00:39:24 --> 00:39:30

Mauldin fear hockomock It is only your commands, which afflicts me,

00:39:30 --> 00:39:35

they, they all apply to me. Now all of your commands apply to me,

00:39:35 --> 00:39:40

and I don't complain. So he says, I don't fear Kedah oke every

00:39:40 --> 00:39:43

decree and judgment of yours is completely just

00:39:45 --> 00:39:49

just showing what Allah is and who Allah is. Allah loves to be

00:39:49 --> 00:39:50

praised.

00:39:52 --> 00:39:56

Now he says he says as a Luca, I asked you again He doesn't ask

00:39:56 --> 00:39:59

yet. You just starting everything I asked you because he

00:40:00 --> 00:40:04

espinho aluk I asked you with every name that you have some may

00:40:04 --> 00:40:08

there be enough sec, that you've given yourself every name you

00:40:08 --> 00:40:10

because these are the various scenario I just talked about the

00:40:10 --> 00:40:13

names, I asked you by every name of yours that you have given to

00:40:13 --> 00:40:18

yourself. Oh, Ansel the houfy key topic that you have revealed, or

00:40:18 --> 00:40:20

you have revealed in the book, there are a number of names

00:40:20 --> 00:40:24

mentioned in the in the Quran, that are not part of the 99 names.

00:40:24 --> 00:40:28

For example, the 99 names are just the package. They're not the only

00:40:28 --> 00:40:31

Names of Allah. And this hadith explains this, though I explains

00:40:31 --> 00:40:35

it, or that you revealed in your book, or alumna who hadn't been

00:40:35 --> 00:40:39

halakhic, or you've taught to somebody very specific from the

00:40:39 --> 00:40:44

creation, you've only taught to somebody, oh, it's 30 behaviour in

00:40:44 --> 00:40:48

the middle, maybe in the UK, or you have kept it withheld it to

00:40:48 --> 00:40:51

yourself in the knowledge that only you possess, and know you've

00:40:51 --> 00:40:54

not revealed it to anybody who would even know that only a

00:40:54 --> 00:40:58

profit. Only a prophet could even think about something like this,

00:40:58 --> 00:41:01

then No, Allah has other names that he has not revealed to

00:41:01 --> 00:41:04

anybody. I'm going to ask him by those names.

00:41:06 --> 00:41:10

Now, once he said that, then he says, Then he asks the DA, and the

00:41:10 --> 00:41:15

journal Khurana neurosurgery that you make the Quran I ask you by

00:41:15 --> 00:41:19

all of these names, that you make the Quran, the light of my heart,

00:41:19 --> 00:41:21

the light of my chest

00:41:23 --> 00:41:28

Warabi Calbee the spring of my hearts Gela Hussaini removal of my

00:41:28 --> 00:41:35

cares what the harbor HMI and the elimination of all of my problems.

00:41:36 --> 00:41:38

You think your daughter's not going to be accepted? You think

00:41:38 --> 00:41:42

the Quran will then not be all of these things if we make this to

00:41:42 --> 00:41:43

our with that understanding

00:41:45 --> 00:41:48

that all of our reading of the Quran listening to the Quran, this

00:41:48 --> 00:41:50

is the benefit we get from if we made this door.

00:41:51 --> 00:41:55

There are so many doors like this. We don't have too much time I'll

00:41:55 --> 00:41:58

just mention a few more. But if you get a Hezbollah out of them,

00:41:58 --> 00:42:02

for example, a copy of a Hezbollah them or any other comprehensive to

00:42:02 --> 00:42:05

our book like that prophetic doors, you will see every single

00:42:05 --> 00:42:09

one of them, those two hours are so powerful. And if you complete

00:42:09 --> 00:42:11

the reading of the book, whether it takes you seven days or a

00:42:11 --> 00:42:16

month, you would have asked Allah subhanaw taala for everything that

00:42:16 --> 00:42:20

is beneficial for us to ask him and necessary for us to ask him

00:42:20 --> 00:42:21

even if he didn't think about it.

00:42:23 --> 00:42:27

We don't know what we else we need from Allah but we would have asked

00:42:27 --> 00:42:27

him for it.

00:42:29 --> 00:42:33

La ilaha illa Allah who will Haleem al Karim. That's how we

00:42:33 --> 00:42:38

start. There is no God except Allah, the Most Forbearing and the

00:42:38 --> 00:42:39

most benevolence.

00:42:41 --> 00:42:43

The one who's got the greatest patience, and the one who gives

00:42:43 --> 00:42:47

the most most generous so you can see where he's going with this.

00:42:48 --> 00:42:52

Subhanallah he robbed bill our shield of him Glorified is Allah

00:42:52 --> 00:42:55

the Lord of the Mighty Throne? under his control, either if he's

00:42:55 --> 00:42:58

got the throne, he's got everything. Al hamdu Lillahi

00:42:58 --> 00:43:01

Rabbil alameen and all praise is to the Lord of the Worlds he's the

00:43:01 --> 00:43:03

Lord of the Worlds. You've set the scene.

00:43:05 --> 00:43:10

Now he says Luca, I asked you Mooji Bertie Rama tick what as a

00:43:10 --> 00:43:14

mama theoretic well honey met him in colibra was salam Ataman

00:43:14 --> 00:43:14

Khalifa.

00:43:15 --> 00:43:21

He says, I asked you for that which evokes Your mercy for deeds

00:43:21 --> 00:43:24

which bring about your forgiveness, for the benefit of

00:43:24 --> 00:43:29

complete piety and for safety from all mistakes and sins and errors.

00:43:29 --> 00:43:34

Then he says, Love that leave them been in love oferta What are

00:43:34 --> 00:43:38

Harmon in love for Russia? What are her Justin here, look at it on

00:43:38 --> 00:43:42

00:43:57 --> 00:44:00

it, OH Most Merciful of those who show mercy.

00:44:02 --> 00:44:06

Just if that one dog gets accepted of ours, then basically

00:44:07 --> 00:44:12

every sin of us ours is forgiven. Every concern we have is taken

00:44:12 --> 00:44:17

care of. And every need that we have that is satisfactory to

00:44:17 --> 00:44:23

Allah, we will get it. Now what a deal. Just that one da, but

00:44:23 --> 00:44:24

there's a way to ask it.

00:44:26 --> 00:44:27

Now look at this one.

00:44:28 --> 00:44:30

To show you the comprehensiveness these are the other other

00:44:30 --> 00:44:33

comprehensive to us. Allahumma slovenly Dini, a lady who are Esma

00:44:59 --> 00:44:59

00:45:01 --> 00:45:05

annual Motorola Hatton Lehmann coalition, and make death for me a

00:45:23 --> 00:45:27

source of respite from all evil.

00:45:28 --> 00:45:33

Again one dua gets accepted our dunya and akhira is made because

00:45:33 --> 00:45:37

we are making dua for the reforming of our deen for the

00:45:37 --> 00:45:42

reform of our dunya. And for the reform of our hereafter what else

00:45:43 --> 00:45:47

That's it, single door are all of it taken care of.

00:45:49 --> 00:45:53

There are so many doors like this, so many doors like this.

00:45:54 --> 00:45:57

In the interest of time, let me just mention,

00:45:58 --> 00:46:01

Allahu Majid al higher or Omri our hero who

00:46:03 --> 00:46:07

listen to the meaning of Allah make the best part of my life, the

00:46:07 --> 00:46:09

final part of my life.

00:46:10 --> 00:46:12

The whole life can be good and wonderful. We're not saying make

00:46:12 --> 00:46:16

the rest bad. Make the whole thing good, but make the best because

00:46:16 --> 00:46:20

best is superlative. The best part of my life the final part of my

00:46:20 --> 00:46:21

life, which means that other parts should be good.

00:46:23 --> 00:46:25

So that's the dunya sorted the life sorted

00:46:27 --> 00:46:32

we'll hire our Amedy Hawa, tema, who make the best of my deeds, the

00:46:32 --> 00:46:37

final deeds that I will finally die upon doing because if a person

00:46:37 --> 00:46:41

becomes demented, or something in the towards the end, I mean, it

00:46:41 --> 00:46:45

could be worse. So he's saying no make the last deeds my best deeds

00:46:46 --> 00:46:50

so that I don't start doing bad things after having good like it's

00:46:50 --> 00:46:55

happened to certain people Allah protect us. Then he says, Would

00:46:55 --> 00:46:55

you

00:46:57 --> 00:47:01

hire a yummy now what's left? He's saying Oh ALLAH and make the best

00:47:01 --> 00:47:03

of my days which

00:47:06 --> 00:47:09

you've already asked for the best part of life the final part best

00:47:09 --> 00:47:13

deed the final deeds, which day is going to be the rest now what you

00:47:13 --> 00:47:14

expect the province the lesson to be asking for?

00:47:18 --> 00:47:19

Close

00:47:20 --> 00:47:21

Would you

00:47:22 --> 00:47:27

hire a yummy Yama Akaka fee, the day that I meet you.

00:47:28 --> 00:47:30

Now, what else do you need after that?

00:47:31 --> 00:47:32

Your dunya is sorted.

00:47:34 --> 00:47:37

This life is sorted. Your deeds are sorted. And the best thing is

00:47:37 --> 00:47:40

that on the day when we stand in front of Allah, that's the best

00:47:40 --> 00:47:41

day of our existence.

00:47:42 --> 00:47:46

Just that one door get accepted. It's a short three phases, phrases

00:47:46 --> 00:47:47

holla that's it.

00:47:50 --> 00:47:54

Look at this, how can you combine this if you want respect, but you

00:47:54 --> 00:47:59

don't want to be arrogant? You want to be productive? But you

00:47:59 --> 00:48:04

don't want to be proud. How do you reconcile those two things? And

00:48:04 --> 00:48:07

hence you've got to do our which everybody should be making? Allahu

00:48:08 --> 00:48:14

Allahu Allahu Majid only if he if he Sahira which I'll Wolfie at

00:48:14 --> 00:48:17

university Kabira there's various different version versions of

00:48:17 --> 00:48:21

this, but this one is Allahumma Gianni if he if he Sahira with the

00:48:21 --> 00:48:25

university Kabira Oh, Allah make me small and inferior in my

00:48:25 --> 00:48:29

sights, but make me great in the sight of others.

00:48:30 --> 00:48:34

So you enjoy the respect of people, but you don't think

00:48:34 --> 00:48:35

yourself much?

00:48:36 --> 00:48:38

Because when somebody starts respecting you start getting

00:48:38 --> 00:48:42

arrogant and bloating. This just how who's going to come up with

00:48:42 --> 00:48:46

something? What psychologists can think of this? It has to be a

00:48:46 --> 00:48:49

spiritual psychologist. It can't be just a normal psychologist has

00:48:49 --> 00:48:52

to be somebody with a heart somebody with profound

00:48:52 --> 00:48:53

understanding.

00:48:54 --> 00:48:55

These are the power of these to us.

00:48:57 --> 00:49:01

Allahumma Jarrell OSA are this speaker in the Kimberley Sydney

00:49:01 --> 00:49:04

one Quito your honoree Oh Allah gives me the greatest expansion of

00:49:04 --> 00:49:08

your sustenance in my old age

00:49:09 --> 00:49:14

and when my life is about to end, so I can give sadaqa at that time

00:49:14 --> 00:49:17

you become debilitated you can't do much. But you want these are

00:49:17 --> 00:49:20

the doors would you ever think about these things? These are the

00:49:20 --> 00:49:23

words of the Prophet sallallahu sallam, you read a comprehensive

00:49:23 --> 00:49:27

dua manual and you'll get all of these things. Okay, let's do one

00:49:27 --> 00:49:31

final one. Allahu wa jal Surya Rottie Hi Ramona Allah and Yeti,

00:49:31 --> 00:49:34

which Allah near the Saudi, Oh Allah,

00:49:35 --> 00:49:36

make

00:49:37 --> 00:49:42

my internal superior to my external, make my insight better

00:49:42 --> 00:49:47

than my outside meaning my heart, my thoughts, my feelings, my

00:49:47 --> 00:49:51

sentiments make them better than I show myself outside, but make my

00:49:51 --> 00:49:53

outside righteous and pious.

00:49:54 --> 00:49:58

Again, who combines between these two who can speak about these

00:49:58 --> 00:49:59

things, only the Prophet sallallahu

00:50:00 --> 00:50:04

Salam May Allah shower His abundant blessings upon May Allah

00:50:04 --> 00:50:07

shower His abundant blessings and peace and mercy upon him.

00:50:08 --> 00:50:11

As I said in sha Allah from today and there are so many more to us,

00:50:11 --> 00:50:14

in the interest of time, we don't have time to go through, but

00:50:17 --> 00:50:22

I will do our should never be the same again. Build the scene, build

00:50:22 --> 00:50:26

the relationship, set the tone, ask with the right words. For

00:50:26 --> 00:50:29

example, one of the allium says, if you use two names of Allah,

00:50:29 --> 00:50:33

throughout your day, you will start seeing the benefits and the

00:50:33 --> 00:50:36

mercy of Allah. Yeah, then Angela Lee will econ.

00:50:37 --> 00:50:38

Or one of majesty,

00:50:39 --> 00:50:43

00:50:43 --> 00:50:45

Allah, you have everything you control everything, you're the one

00:50:45 --> 00:50:49

of Majesty and you're the benevolent and generous one. Then

00:50:49 --> 00:50:51

you ask for Allah you think he's not gonna give you you just told

00:50:51 --> 00:50:54

him you're the one who gives? That's why when you go too early,

00:50:54 --> 00:50:56

oh, you know, you've got this huge gap and you know, you're known to

00:50:56 --> 00:51:00

give that just gets it going. But with Allah subhanaw taala He wants

00:51:00 --> 00:51:04

us to this because that shows our expresses our servitude. May Allah

00:51:04 --> 00:51:07

subhanaw taala grant us this. And may Allah subhanaw taala grant us

00:51:07 --> 00:51:11

the light of the prophetic doors and allow us to bring that in part

00:51:11 --> 00:51:16

of our life and allow us to be the servant and build our relationship

00:51:16 --> 00:51:19
