My dear respected friends, our dear respected
elders and our respected younger folk.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam had two aspects
when it came to his mission,
the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam did Dawa. That will means to
invite
he did our which was to invite the people. The word in Arabic Dawa.
There is also another similar word to it which comes from the same
root term which is dua, DUA and Dawa. They both mean very, they
come from a very similar route. In fact, the same route that will
means to invite the people. And dua means to ask of Allah subhanaw
taala if you want your data to be successful,
if you want your invitation to others to be successful, you need
to ask the Tofik of Allah subhanho wa taala. So the DUA has to be
there.
Mostly, we know about the Dawa, the invitation
and the propagation of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his
life. There are many sera books that discuss that and generally
there's numerous talks that discuss how the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam conveyed the message of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada.
We also know that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam had
many doors.
We also make dua,
but what we want to understand today is how were the doors of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
my hope Inshallah, my dua my prayer to Allah is that, once we
understand this, your DUA will not be the same again.
In sha Allah, then it will infuse our doulas with the life that they
need
so that they can be more powerful in sha Allah.
See, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, in his doors, what we
understand is that from a literary perspective, if you look at it
from a literary perspective,
when you study literature, types of language and the way it's used,
you have your horror, you have your romance, you have your
dramas, you have your poetry, and you have the different genres of
literature they call them in Arabic, when it comes to doors, we
have a very specific genre, dua in itself is a very, very special way
of saying something.
There's a special art to doing this.
I give you an give you an example.
When I was growing up in Urdu,
and in Gujarati
I'm not sure if it's the same in Bengali, but when you make dua to
Allah subhanho wa Taala in order do you say Allah to mu j the two
Mujaddid
now when you say two two is considered to be actually for
normal person when you say two it's considered to be
disrespectful in order to use the word up it's more respectful nine
English it's all the same, you you you two older or younger, but when
it comes to Oh to do with reality and other languages, in
Bangladeshi, you have separate words as well.
So now, I used to always wonder that why are we addressing Allah
subhanaw taala with the word two, as opposed to be up because you
know, to me Jaden, it was only later that I discovered that this
is this special category of expression, to make it so personal
and so impersonal, no pretenses whatsoever. That in this
particular position, when you're making dua to Allah, you can say
to
you can't say it in any other situation, otherwise, it'd be
disrespectful.
But in that particular situation, because you're supposed to be so
intimate and so close, you're allowed to say that this is our
languages, you're allowed to say certain things in a certain
context, which should not be allowable in a different context,
but in this context, is most appropriate and is the best way to
do something. That's what you call eloquent.
Now, moving away from that, if you look at the two R's of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, each one of them
is a masterpiece.
Each one of them is so profound, because
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had a big task on his hand
at his time, in terms of a human connection to Allah subhana wa
Tada. There was a lot of misunderstanding, a lot of
confusion. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam says a door or who
will a brother dua is a brother.
He also says, The DUA is more holy a brother is the essence of
worship. When I first read that hadith, it was a bit difficult for
me to understand what was meant, because I saw dua as a selfish
expression of want. You are requesting Allah Oh Allah give me
this Oh Allah make me like this. Oh, Allah give me this job. Oh,
Allah give me this, give me that. Right. You're asking for something
for yourself. What I saw a bar that as which it is, is devotion,
like you're doing solid, you're doing some vicar. There's no,
there's not nothing selfish about that. You're just showing an
expressing a devotion to Allah subhanaw taala. That's what you
call it Ibaadat. So how is dua which I saw as a selfish plea for
things that I wanted, and it bothered. But this is what it is,
when we do do our properly if we understand what a dua should be
like and what it should contain, then we will understand that it is
it is one of the greatest forms of worship, and how is that when we
have lost all else, when we cannot go to anyone else. And we then
show our humility, to express something for Allah subhanho wa
Taala to Allah subhanaw taala, then we are actually expressing
our idea, our servitude, I am your slave, I am in need, and my hands
outstretched to you because it's only you that can assist me and
help me in this regard. That is what is supposed to be an
expression of
my humility, to the creator and sustainer and provider of
everything. That position is a very intense position of abdiel.
That's why dua is essentially worshipped if it's done in the
right way.
Now, in Jah helliya times, Allah was there, Allah has always been
there. In fact, he was believed in by the people, they believed in
the highest being. However, they did not think they could access
Allah directly. That's why they had all of these idols. It's just
like, in your local, you know, locally, you can't get through to
the Prime Minister, you have to go through your local MP or whatever
the case is, it's very difficult to get to the big shots up there.
Now they apply this to Allah little understanding that Allah
despite his greatness is closer to everybody than their jugular vein,
and he hears everything. So this was the misunderstanding. Number
two, if you then look towards Greece, which was a much older
tradition, the Hellenistic philosophical tradition, from the
Platonic Aristotelian logic, Aristotelian philosophy, they
believed in a Supreme Being, they believed in God, but he was called
the unmoved mover, or the first cause.
The problem is that between what their concept of God was as such,
and between humanity and the world, they had all of these
intermediaries in between, they had 10, they call them are called
the intellects. And the last one that dealt with the affairs of the
world was called the active intellect, which meant that again,
you couldn't get directly to Allah you could not get directly to
their first cause. There was always intermediaries in between
the prophets Allah Lauryssens task was to teach people a number of
things is that you can access Allah directly. So look how Allah
subhanho wa Taala does it in the Quran in surah Zoomer Allah
subhanaw taala says, What either hookey Allah who was the who is
schema as global Levine Hola, yo, Mina, Bill our hero. What either
who cares we're either look here Allah Xena mean Dooney is our whom
yesterday she rune. When Allah alone is mentioned, the people who
do not believe in the hereafter their face undergoes change.
They don't like it.
You know when you hear something you're not excited about how does
your face become? That's what their situation was. However, when
those besides Allah were mentioned that they used to believe in that
you know, the idols and so on. They used to get excited because
they felt that something was gonna come from them and not from Allah
because Allah was to beyond
that's why then Allah subhanho wa Taala says in Surah Al Baqarah
another stage
where either
Hola Kariba the omniva in need Corrib
OG without a dar either the en
file yes the G Bulli will you know, be la Allah whom your schoon
when My servants ask about me,
then let them know that I'm close
enough it doesn't even say let them know it just says I am close.
That's the powerful expression of the Quran. When the My servants
ask about me, I am close, then I am close.
I respond
to those who call upon me when they call upon me.
Then Allah subhanho wa Taala to take people's attention away from
all of these other fake intermediaries said Walter Roman
Dooney Allah He Mala and Farooq Abdullah doorlock. Don't call on
to all of these other things besides Allah, these other deities
that you have taken besides Allah, who cannot benefit you and who
cannot harm you. This was something deep down, they
understood that they can't harm us and benefit us. The problem was
narrative. Now, what does that mean? The problem was narrative.
When you buy into a narrative, then you become blinded and fully
convinced with that narrative. Then you interpret everything
accordingly. I give you a few examples.
In a program, I'm met somebody, it was an interfaith program and I
met somebody, it was a Muslim woman. And she said to me that you
look like my brother, meaning I looked like her brother. Don't you
know my brother? He's a Mufti.
I thought she's she was Shia background. So I thought, I don't
know any Shia of these. Why would I know her brother? And she was
quite convinced that you know, might you should know my brother.
He is the Mufti. I said, Look, I don't know your brother. Right?
And I didn't think much of it. I ignored it.
A day or two later she asked me and she says you should know my
brother. He is.
He's a Mufti and he graduated in darlin Karachi that woke me up I
said, Hold on, hold on. You don't get shears graduating from darlin
Karachi. It's a whole different tradition. So what's going on
here? So tell me what what are you? What are you talking about?
So apparently, she she, she becomes here.
And her brother was a Mufti of a particular city. I won't mention
his name. And I've been to the city and I know then I discovered
that I know her other brother who's in Dublin
because I did tarawih in the area many, many years ago.
Wow. So I asked her the story. I said, what happened? I said, Well,
she had a friend at university who was here and who told her a number
of things.
One of the gripes and the complaints was that
you see, the Prophet sallallahu Sallam had a piece of land had
some land,
that he would take expenses from for his family and so on, and he
would give sadaqa, etc. After the Prophet salallahu Salam departed
this world 14 Out of the Allahu anha, came to Al Bakr, Siddiq, or
the Allah one. Now there's a famous Hadith, which is that from
the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam that we,
group of Prophets, we congregation of prophets do not leave behind
inheritance, that which we leave behind this knowledge. And that's
for the whole Ummah, and you can take as much of the inheritance as
you want, it's open to all in terms of substance.
We don't leave any inheritance, the well known Hadith
when Fatima or the Alon, she didn't know about this, it seems
she came and she asked for the land, discussing with obika The
Allah one.
And Albuquerque alone explained the Hadith to her.
And then she went away.
Now, the narrative here is, this was an injustice.
This was an injustice against the family of the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, and he get people evoke people into anger and
sadness. And they build a whole thing against his O'Meara. They
did the same thing afterwards.
Thus, Abu Bakr and Omar they were against what the Allah wanted,
they were against the Prophet sallallahu Salman, his family.
This is an I said, this is a narrative you've bought into why
don't you look at it a different way, that this was what the
prophets Allah had said, this was a well known narration. And this
is what it was.
It just depends on what you buy into. And once you buy into
something you become blinded, give you another example. One of the
biggest examples of this is Shavon. shaytaan sees himself made
from fire. He's worshipped Allah all throughout. He's been a big
devotee. He's been worshipping Allah
But then when Adam Alayhis Salam is created from soil, his logic
works like this fire rises, whereas soil is lowly. Why should
I prostrate in front of him? That's one narrative. That's one
way of looking at something. Another way of looking at it would
have been so many other ways
that God created both of us. God wants me to prostrate and humility
and submission is the greatest thing. I should do that that's
another narrative. Another narrative is another you can say,
purely scientific narrative is okay, fire leaves ashes in its
weak, fire destroys, fire wreaks havoc. Soil doesn't do that soil
grows gives birth to things. So couldn't have looked at it that
way. Wasn't there a different way of looking at it? There's a person
that I know who's from a Pakistani background. His daughter got
married against the parents wishes to a Bangladeshi brother 10 years
ago, they've got three children now.
They all understand it was a mistake. Right? They all
understand it was a mistake, right? mistake in the sense that
it's made so many people unhappy. It's not a mistake, religiously
speaking. But culturally speaking, it was a mistake in there. Because
this father now does not speak want to speak to his daughter,
even after 10 years. Even after three children, he doesn't want to
see the children.
What kind of a human is this?
What narrative has he bought into his narrative is that this goes
against my culture. Because my daughter should have got married
to my my nephew.
She didn't do that. Okay, fine. What they did was wrong. I agree.
Right? Not religiously wrong as such, but you have to listen to
your prayers. You have tried to make everybody happy. And that's
understandable. But come on, haven't you got a heart? Don't you
want to be forgiven as well by Allah? Don't you make mistakes?
Is your culture more important than your daughter and your blood?
Your cultures narrative is more valuable to you than your blood
relative? Like, what's your problem? Okay, you can be upset
with them for six months, maybe for one year, maybe for three
years. But for 10 years after having children.
This is what Allah wanted. Now, Hadas finish you've had your
patients, Allah will give you for your patience.
This is the problem with narrative.
This is the problem with narrative. And you got the wrong
narrative, you will become blinded by it.
And this is what happens with atheists. They take on the wrong
narrative, even if their heart calls out to God at moments at
sensitive moments. But intellectually, they're unable to
surmount the intellectual challenge of their mind. And thus
they continue to deny and yet their heart calls out. And this is
the problem with narratives. Now think about it. Why did shaytan
not think about the other narrative?
It's all Tofik. It's all related to divine guidance and divine
enablement. We have to just be so satisfied and thankful to Allah
subhanaw taala that he has given us in sha Allah the right
narrative. Otherwise, what difference what what? How easy it
would have been for us to have had another narrative.
Where else does it come from? Except Allah subhanho wa taala.
Somebody in our family has made dua that's why I mentioned that if
people respect the knowledge, respect the books of and respect
the masjid, respect the Allah ma, then even if Allah doesn't give
them knowledge, he will put it into their children and into their
progeny. These are ways of deriving the tofi from Allah
subhanaw taala. Otherwise, our iman is open. Our Iman is open to
its vulnerable.
May Allah be thanked for the narrative that He's given us?
Otherwise, so many other narratives exist? Moving back to
our topic?
The prophets Allah, Allah subhanho wa Taala was now diffusing this
whole confusion, unraveling it then Allah subhanho wa Taala says,
What color a boo Komodo Rooney istnieje Blackcomb.
Your Lord says Call on Me and I will answer you. He's giving a
command now. After his unraveling everything is commanding. Then he
says in the Lavina you're stuck Bureau Anna and Eva that he said
Hello Anna Johanna Murdock hearing those people who think they're too
big to be obedient to me to devote themselves to me, then they are
we're going to enter them into the hellfire.
So this is now a warning the prophets of the Lord isms
isn't a hadith manlam Yes Adela, Yehuda Valley whoever doesn't ask
Allah Allah gets angry on it
now he's making it very clear that you need to ask Allah that's very
important
now let us look at the doors of the Prophet let's learn how to
make dua you know the problem is that our to us today are a list of
dictations
we finished Salado whenever we're going to make dua, O Allah
except my doors of Allah give me my job that job I'm looking for
Allah make it easy for me all I need to get my daughter married
find the right person for me. There's that person were
interested Allah turned his heart towards this is the right person.
Oh Allah, I need that phone that call I need. I need that raise in
my job I need.
We're just basically a whole list of things as though Allah is there
waiting with the list a pen. Okay, fine. Yes, yes, yes, yes. And I'll
do this for you. Essentially, this is this is the way I will do
answer. We think it's silly. And then when it doesn't get accepted,
we get upset. How can we didn't do it? Like he said, Our slave or
something. He's our servant. He didn't do the job today for me.
I've told him 10 times. I've made the order 10 times and it hasn't
been accepted.
Allah has the whole nother arm of the world to look after. We're
just a small element within this whole quantum world of
interconnected beings. We want this this that and the other. Does
it fit into Allah's grand plan and decree of the entire world?
Because whatever he gives us is going to have an possible impact
on something else. Is it the right thing for us? Is it harmful for
us? Is it good for us? That's why doctors are always examining the
act of dua is always going to be accepted, we're going to get
something for it, either what we asked for now or later, or if it's
inappropriate for us right now, we won't get it, but we'll be given
something else or a removal of a calamity.
Otherwise, we'll be giving it to a given in the Hereafter, which
would be the most valuable option, though. That's not what we
generally want. Because we want it now.
Right? So there's always benefit in doing dua, but we have to
understand that it has to fit into Allah's grand plan. And maybe this
job that I'm looking for is bad for that grand plan and is bad for
me. I may become more arrogant if I stopped making that higher
salary right now and I'm too young.
Right this is gonna be so many different reasons. So now when you
look at the Prophet sallallahu Radiosondes dua
look at understand where it's coming from.
We have Allah the Creator,
who is the giver of everything. He is the one who you're going to
call upon the one calling upon him and supplicating is the Prophet
Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. He is a prophet. He is a
Rasul. He is the Most Beloved of all of humanity, all of creation
to Allah subhanho wa taala. He also knows Allah more than anybody
else. He knows what invokes Allah's mercy. He knows what gets
Allah to give. He knows how to convince Allah, and he has the
greatest level of servitude.
Can you think about any other persons whose DUA and
communication with Allah could be any more better than that?
He's got it all made. On top of that. The Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam was the most eloquent being his Arabic was the
most profound, most effective, most eloquent, you couldn't have
anything. That's why when you look at the doors of the prophets,
Allah, some every single one of them, you can't fault them for
their splendor, for their language for their effectiveness for their
brevity, every day of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam, in fact,
every word of the person but especially as though as they are
comprehensive, they are effective. They are profound in their
meaning.
They are a miracle on their own. If you look at it, in themselves,
the prophets Allah son was extremely fluent in his doors.
He's very forceful, he is vivid, he is moving. He is expressive.
All of these characteristics. It's highly appropriate, highly
articulate. He is his language is smooth and facile. His speech is
deeply moving and evocative. This is what characterizes the words
and expressions of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. The
reason is that every dua of the Prophet salallahu Salam is coming.
It's filled with it encompasses the light of prophecy, as a
prophet, it has the conviction and determination of a messenger and
that the highest messenger and along with all of that, it has the
appropriate and effective expression of
The perfect and servant of Allah subhanho wa taala. You cannot have
that combination in anybody else. One who is a prophet, a messenger
and abd par excellence. That's why his doors are going to be the
greatest. And I will show you a few of these to us today, the
doors of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam are of two types.
In general, you've got the very specific two hours before eating
Bismillah albaraka. Tila, after eating before sleeping before
wudu, etc. These are specific occasion doors for that particular
situation. Then you've got the comprehensive doors, the doors
which ask for general things, if you look at any one of these
general doors, the majority of them are such that if just that
one two hours to be accepted for us, our dunya and akhira is
sorted.
They are so short, but they encompass the prosperity of this
world and the hereafter. They contain within it the success of
both worlds every single one of them, and I'll show you some of
them. But then we need to look at the way the prophets also made
dua. And that's what we need to learn, then we will see that our
doors will be accepted, we have to set the scene.
So the Prophet sallallahu Radiosondes, draw from the
perspective that they are spiritual manifestations. At the
same time, they're perfect from a literary perspective. You can't
fault them. Clear and lucid, flowing and complete free of any
pretenses goes directly to the point uses the right words to
invoke the right name of Allah at the right time.
You can tell that it's somebody who's got great pain for the
Ummah, when you listen to his daughters, a great zeal, a high
level of Malefor knowledge of Allah subhanaw taala. And then
profoundly eloquent, you can just imagine what that speech is going
to be like. Let us start with one dua.
And it is quite unfortunate for those of us who don't understand
Arabic directly, because you can't appreciate the language that's
used, I will translate it, I'll try to do the best job that I can.
But if you understood it directly through the Arabic, it would just
Subhanallah it will have your hair standing on end. That's how
beautiful these two are. Let's just start with the two out of
five.
Now, to understand the context, because every speech that you say
that you do, that you utter, comes at a particular particular
situation. There are reasons why you say that, that creates the
reason to say those words. The Prophet sallallahu Sallam has
become weary of the people of Makkah, that persecute being
persecuted. So he goes to five, which is the second most
influential city, there are three tribes or three leaders or three
leaders down there, to try to speak to them, if you could get
support for them from them. hamdulillah it would help the
cause. However, when he goes there, unfortunately, it's not
successful. At the end as he's leaving the city. There are
children who are sent behind him to throw stones at him and thus he
is blooded. He just done his best. He went out of his way to go
there. He's come back and he feels the failure, the dejection and the
rejection. What is his dog going to be like at that time? What your
what would your and my daughter would be at that time?
Our life done my best. What else can I do?
Right? They don't get it.
This is the daughter of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam. He says Allahumma inni sashco Darfur Kuwaiti working
letter helicity wa an ER nurse.
He starts offices, Allah, unto you do I complain
of the weakness of my strength?
That's how it starts. The weakness of my strength.
The paucity of my strategies, I didn't have a strategy
and my loneliness before men, I'm humiliated in their sight Hawa any
other nurse. That's how he starts. Then he says, under our hammer raw
he mean, you are the Most Merciful of the merciful ones. And the
rubble, Mustafa Athene, look at the words he's using the names of
Allah that he's calling Allah with, not just Oh Allah, Oh Allah.
I mean, Allah has a very powerful name but he has 99 and more names
for a reason.
And are Hamra him, you know, the Most Merciful of them. I want your
mercy. This is a place of mercy. You can tell he's using the right

anyway, but this is what the purpose of his building the story
he is

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

you call the dua of a prophet.
Now moving on, let's look at the dua of artifacts now davara third,
this is SubhanAllah. In Ramadan, the shayateen are locked up. We
feel the benefits in hajj on the day of Arafa Zahara to market him,
the shayateen is not locked up. But the amount of Mercy that's
descending is so much that shaytaan gets totally perplexed
and becomes despondent that today I can't infect anybody here today.
That's the time is the time when every moment of it is so valuable
and so precious that you can take the worst of sinners and make them
into the greatest Olia of Allah. If they do the right thing and
that time, that's how powerful that time is. What would the
Prophet sallallahu was do RB on that day?
Think about it. This is his dua.
Now ponder over these words. He starts he says hola Houma in Nikka
Tessmer Ocala Amin Ouattara McCarney, what I learned was
Saturday what I learned it.
Does he ask anything yet? No, he's just setting the scene. Oh Allah.
You are listening to me. You can hear what I say. You can see my
state you're seeing my state right now. And you know, everything
about me, both the hidden and the apparent lie off. I like a shape

you like the asking of a destitute one. Have you seen how destitute
people ask? They make a certain face? They use certain words to
evoke your emotion. Right? They're quite professionalism because they
need to try to evoke your mercy and your revulsion by the way they
screw up their face and so on. Right? But I asked you, like the
destitute asks, What up the hero ileka If the halal Muslim is very
ill? And I pray to you humbly I call upon you humbly. Like the
calling of the humiliated sinner, the sinner who's lost, he's been
humiliated. What can his door be like? totally broken. Now he's
only got Allah because everybody else knows.
Allah Aloha if abbrev
The one who is severely affected? What do I mean hadoar Atala
caraka. To who will follow that Luca Abra. To who was de la caja
smooth, were rocky Malika and foo. And also I am making dua to you
the dua of the one who is whose neck is submitted in front of us,
humbled in front of you, who is
tears are flowing for you. Whose whole body
has succumbed to you. And who's knows is rubbing the ground for
you.
Now he starts his door. In fact, Allah Humala that your only be dua
Iike Sharqiya
Oh Allah do not make me a failed one in terms of my doors
don't make me deprived in my two hours, work on the roof and Rahima
and make me of those and know and be most merciful and forgiving for
me. Yeah, Hieronymus Olean where Hiral Martine oh the Best of those
who can be asked and the Best of those who give. Now you think you
make that door? You think it's not going to be answered? You think
Allah won't give in? You're saying Oh Allah, you're the best of those
who can be asked and the Best of those who can give?
Do we know how to make dua? Have we ever made a proper dua in sha
Allah after today you do as will never be the same. This is how you
make a DUA, you set the scene you use the right words. For example,
if you've got a difficulty, there is something that's just not
opening up for you. You use the name Yeah, Fatah
open opener. You got a complicated issue. Something very subtle.
Yeah, Latif.
Ya food Yeah, how far yeah, half of our federal how far her food,
three words, all from the same meaning, forgive her behalf. It
means the Forgiver in general, are far means the one who abundantly
forgives even the greatest of sins, and are for the one who
forgives over and over and over again.
Different names. But similar mean to just show you what Allah is.
One name would never have suffice. Allah is too comprehensive. An
entity for one name to have sufficed, though Allah does
suffice everything the name Allah.
The next door
is this one.
Allahumma inni Abduch
Oh Allah, I am your servant. That's how he starts. Now, isn't
that obvious? Doesn't Allah know that? I am your servant. He starts
like this, Oh Allah, I am your servant. I am your slave. Then he
says, What? No Abdic word no. ametek I am also the son, the
offspring of your male servant and of your female servant. So even my
parents are your slaves. I got nothing going for me. I'm your
slave. My parents are your slave as well.
Then he carries on he says now CRT biddick my follow up is in your
hand. When you got somebody's forelock. You're in their control.
You're you have control over them.
Mauldin fear hockomock It is only your commands, which afflicts me,
they, they all apply to me. Now all of your commands apply to me,
and I don't complain. So he says, I don't fear Kedah oke every
decree and judgment of yours is completely just
just showing what Allah is and who Allah is. Allah loves to be
praised.
Now he says he says as a Luca, I asked you again He doesn't ask
yet. You just starting everything I asked you because he
espinho aluk I asked you with every name that you have some may
there be enough sec, that you've given yourself every name you
because these are the various scenario I just talked about the
names, I asked you by every name of yours that you have given to
yourself. Oh, Ansel the houfy key topic that you have revealed, or
you have revealed in the book, there are a number of names
mentioned in the in the Quran, that are not part of the 99 names.
For example, the 99 names are just the package. They're not the only
Names of Allah. And this hadith explains this, though I explains
it, or that you revealed in your book, or alumna who hadn't been
halakhic, or you've taught to somebody very specific from the
creation, you've only taught to somebody, oh, it's 30 behaviour in
the middle, maybe in the UK, or you have kept it withheld it to
yourself in the knowledge that only you possess, and know you've
not revealed it to anybody who would even know that only a
profit. Only a prophet could even think about something like this,
then No, Allah has other names that he has not revealed to
anybody. I'm going to ask him by those names.
Now, once he said that, then he says, Then he asks the DA, and the
journal Khurana neurosurgery that you make the Quran I ask you by
all of these names, that you make the Quran, the light of my heart,
the light of my chest
Warabi Calbee the spring of my hearts Gela Hussaini removal of my
cares what the harbor HMI and the elimination of all of my problems.
You think your daughter's not going to be accepted? You think
the Quran will then not be all of these things if we make this to
our with that understanding
that all of our reading of the Quran listening to the Quran, this
is the benefit we get from if we made this door.
There are so many doors like this. We don't have too much time I'll
just mention a few more. But if you get a Hezbollah out of them,
for example, a copy of a Hezbollah them or any other comprehensive to
our book like that prophetic doors, you will see every single
one of them, those two hours are so powerful. And if you complete
the reading of the book, whether it takes you seven days or a
month, you would have asked Allah subhanaw taala for everything that
is beneficial for us to ask him and necessary for us to ask him
even if he didn't think about it.
We don't know what we else we need from Allah but we would have asked
him for it.
La ilaha illa Allah who will Haleem al Karim. That's how we
start. There is no God except Allah, the Most Forbearing and the
most benevolence.
The one who's got the greatest patience, and the one who gives
the most most generous so you can see where he's going with this.
Subhanallah he robbed bill our shield of him Glorified is Allah
the Lord of the Mighty Throne? under his control, either if he's
got the throne, he's got everything. Al hamdu Lillahi
Rabbil alameen and all praise is to the Lord of the Worlds he's the
Lord of the Worlds. You've set the scene.
Now he says Luca, I asked you Mooji Bertie Rama tick what as a
mama theoretic well honey met him in colibra was salam Ataman
Khalifa.
He says, I asked you for that which evokes Your mercy for deeds
which bring about your forgiveness, for the benefit of
complete piety and for safety from all mistakes and sins and errors.
Then he says, Love that leave them been in love oferta What are
Harmon in love for Russia? What are her Justin here, look at it on
Illa Kadota Hi yah are hammer rahimian Do not leave me with any
sin, Unforgiven, any worry not removed by you any need that is
pleasing to you, without fulfilling it meaning every need
that I have that is fulfilling that is pleasing to You fulfill
it, OH Most Merciful of those who show mercy.
Just if that one dog gets accepted of ours, then basically
every sin of us ours is forgiven. Every concern we have is taken
care of. And every need that we have that is satisfactory to
Allah, we will get it. Now what a deal. Just that one da, but
there's a way to ask it.
Now look at this one.
To show you the comprehensiveness these are the other other
comprehensive to us. Allahumma slovenly Dini, a lady who are Esma
to Emory. Oh Allah. reform for me my religion, which is the
protection of my affairs, without religion and I'm not gonna have
the right narrative. I'm going to have the wrong approach. So reform
my religion for me, keep me on the right path. Then was literally
dunya Latifi ha she reform for me my dunya in which is my living and
my sustenance
And then what else literally are here Rottier Latifi ha morality
and reform for me my Ophira
where I will return to
and then what your ideal higher to zero that and if equally higher
make the life for me an increase for all types of good word your
annual Motorola Hatton Lehmann coalition, and make death for me a
source of respite from all evil.
Again one dua gets accepted our dunya and akhira is made because
we are making dua for the reforming of our deen for the
reform of our dunya. And for the reform of our hereafter what else
is left?
That's it, single door are all of it taken care of.
There are so many doors like this, so many doors like this.
In the interest of time, let me just mention,
Allahu Majid al higher or Omri our hero who
listen to the meaning of Allah make the best part of my life, the
final part of my life.
The whole life can be good and wonderful. We're not saying make
the rest bad. Make the whole thing good, but make the best because
best is superlative. The best part of my life the final part of my
life, which means that other parts should be good.
So that's the dunya sorted the life sorted
we'll hire our Amedy Hawa, tema, who make the best of my deeds, the
final deeds that I will finally die upon doing because if a person
becomes demented, or something in the towards the end, I mean, it
could be worse. So he's saying no make the last deeds my best deeds
so that I don't start doing bad things after having good like it's
happened to certain people Allah protect us. Then he says, Would
you
hire a yummy now what's left? He's saying Oh ALLAH and make the best
of my days which
you've already asked for the best part of life the final part best
deed the final deeds, which day is going to be the rest now what you
expect the province the lesson to be asking for?
Close
Would you
hire a yummy Yama Akaka fee, the day that I meet you.
Now, what else do you need after that?
Your dunya is sorted.
This life is sorted. Your deeds are sorted. And the best thing is
that on the day when we stand in front of Allah, that's the best
day of our existence.
Just that one door get accepted. It's a short three phases, phrases
holla that's it.
Look at this, how can you combine this if you want respect, but you
don't want to be arrogant? You want to be productive? But you
don't want to be proud. How do you reconcile those two things? And
hence you've got to do our which everybody should be making? Allahu
Allahu Allahu Majid only if he if he Sahira which I'll Wolfie at
university Kabira there's various different version versions of
this, but this one is Allahumma Gianni if he if he Sahira with the
university Kabira Oh, Allah make me small and inferior in my
sights, but make me great in the sight of others.
So you enjoy the respect of people, but you don't think
yourself much?
Because when somebody starts respecting you start getting
arrogant and bloating. This just how who's going to come up with
something? What psychologists can think of this? It has to be a
spiritual psychologist. It can't be just a normal psychologist has
to be somebody with a heart somebody with profound
understanding.
These are the power of these to us.
Allahumma Jarrell OSA are this speaker in the Kimberley Sydney
one Quito your honoree Oh Allah gives me the greatest expansion of
your sustenance in my old age
and when my life is about to end, so I can give sadaqa at that time
you become debilitated you can't do much. But you want these are
the doors would you ever think about these things? These are the
words of the Prophet sallallahu sallam, you read a comprehensive
dua manual and you'll get all of these things. Okay, let's do one
final one. Allahu wa jal Surya Rottie Hi Ramona Allah and Yeti,
which Allah near the Saudi, Oh Allah,
make
my internal superior to my external, make my insight better
than my outside meaning my heart, my thoughts, my feelings, my
sentiments make them better than I show myself outside, but make my
outside righteous and pious.
Again, who combines between these two who can speak about these
things, only the Prophet sallallahu
Salam May Allah shower His abundant blessings upon May Allah
shower His abundant blessings and peace and mercy upon him.
As I said in sha Allah from today and there are so many more to us,
in the interest of time, we don't have time to go through, but
I will do our should never be the same again. Build the scene, build
the relationship, set the tone, ask with the right words. For
example, one of the allium says, if you use two names of Allah,
throughout your day, you will start seeing the benefits and the
mercy of Allah. Yeah, then Angela Lee will econ.
Or one of majesty,
and a one of benevolence and generosity. You're saying to
Allah, you have everything you control everything, you're the one
of Majesty and you're the benevolent and generous one. Then
you ask for Allah you think he's not gonna give you you just told
him you're the one who gives? That's why when you go too early,
oh, you know, you've got this huge gap and you know, you're known to
give that just gets it going. But with Allah subhanaw taala He wants
us to this because that shows our expresses our servitude. May Allah
subhanaw taala grant us this. And may Allah subhanaw taala grant us
the light of the prophetic doors and allow us to bring that in part
of our life and allow us to be the servant and build our relationship
with Allah subhanho wa Taala make Allah make us have the nostalgia
with that word. Well I can read that one and from the reliability
I mean, we'll make a short door
