00:00:00 --> 00:00:03
			Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al
hamdu Lillahi wa Salatu was Salam
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:06
			ala so you didn't even want to he
was so happy he
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:13
			got a lot of terracotta machinery
for calling me woman la mujer de
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:18
			la hula who neuron from Allah will
be new. Lakota is not a standard
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:22
			ek for usually who COBOL was who
acquired him on top of your actual
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:25
			female earthy, he was subhanaw
taala says in the Quran that
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:29
			whoever Allah subhanaw taala
doesn't place any nor for any
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:33
			light for them, there is no light
for that person. This is a very
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:37
			general statement that although
Allah subhanaw taala as he says in
		
00:00:37 --> 00:00:42
			the Quran, Allah Who knows similar
to what Allah is the the knower of
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:45
			the heavens and the earth. That is
the literal translation many of
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:48
			them have Assyrian have explained
that to mean Allah whom we know we
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:52
			are similar to a lot. If somebody
is the light, then clearly,
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:54
			there's no point in having a light
that doesn't go anywhere. The
		
00:00:54 --> 00:00:58
			light means it's the shine aligns
manifest everywhere, just like his
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:03
			his His power, His majesty, His
beauty is manifest everywhere, his
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:07
			latest manifest everywhere. So
essentially, what it means is that
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			Allah is the illuminator as well,
he is the Lord and he's the
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:13
			illuminated as many Hadees we'd
speak about Allah subhanho wa
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:18
			taala, veiled by 70, veils of law,
etc, etc. The point we're trying
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:22
			to make is that Allah subhanaw
taala places nor so what is the
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:26
			external light that we see by
which we actually see what things
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:30
			are in this world, that's the
first light which everybody shares
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:34
			in whether a person is a believer
or, or a disbeliever. Then of
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:36
			course, there's the light, which
shows you the right way, which
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:39
			shows you the basic right way,
which is the Iman that
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			Hamdulillah, we've been blessed
with that as Muslims, we've been
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:45
			shown the right way. So we have
that additional level of law
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:49
			already Hamdulillah. Now, beyond
that, there is an increase of the
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:53
			node. And that node increases
increases until a person becomes a
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:57
			body of Allah. So the more nor a
person will have, then that is how
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:01
			much more a worldly a person is to
Allah subhanaw taala, when he just
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:05
			means to be close to Allah, close
associate, a friend, in a sense, a
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:10
			friend in the sense of not in the
worldly sense of buddies and
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:12
			things of that nature, but a
friend in the sense that we're
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:17
			there is there for you, as the
promise of the Lord is central, in
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:18
			our bus of your loved one.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:22
			When he was sitting with him on
the same animal, he said,
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:24
			follow the law here.
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:28
			You will be mindful of Allah and
Allah will be mindful of you.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:32
			Therefore the law digital to Jack,
be mindful of Allah and you will
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:36
			actually find him in front of you.
Clearly not gonna see him, but you
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			will find him in front of you,
which means that you will see his
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:41
			effects in front of you, you will
see his assistance is defense is
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:45
			his light, whatever it is,
however, that's manifested, Allah
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:47
			has everything in his disposal. So
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:52
			the one who Allah subhanaw taala
has not placed any note for
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:57
			then he has no other No, there is
no other way to get more. So we're
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			going to look at this.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:03
			This verse in the light of where
we are, so clearly the light we
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:08
			have, Iman we have, but then we're
not getting beyond our human. This
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:12
			is why we're here. We're not
moving ahead. When we're
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:16
			struggling. We hear the stories of
these great pious individuals and
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:20
			we just can't seem to come close
because we're fine for a few days
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:23
			we find during Ramadan we find
when we go for Hajj, and then
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:24
			suddenly we start losing it.
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:30
			As soon as you start, normal daily
routine, your heart starts to take
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:32
			on the effects of the dunya again,
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:36
			clear experience from hygiene
Hajj, you're not seeing any non
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:39
			Muslims you're not seeing any
haram. You know you to do haram
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:43
			that you really have to go out of
your way to do haram. But then you
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:46
			come back and it's around you so
then you get influenced by that.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:50
			And then it the heart starts to
react to that in that same kind of
		
00:03:50 --> 00:03:51
			way.
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:53
			Subhan Allah
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:57
			then if nada Allah he says K for
usually Kukulkan but then how is
		
00:03:57 --> 00:04:00
			your heart? So based on that
verse, you're saying, How is a
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:07
			heart going to be illumined when
it has the forms? So a Quan Quan
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:12
			means the plural of tone beings.
According is beings, different
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:15
			everything's being including us
and everything else. So when
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:20
			beings are in our heart, when
other creatures are in our heart,
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:24
			very means by creatures being in
our heart is our heart reflects
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:27
			what's inside what we think about
or we're concerned about what our
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:32
			worry is what our whole golden
ambition is in life. So what is
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:35
			something we declare but the other
is what we actually do with our
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:39
			heart. We will declare to be
faithful we will declare to be
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:42
			close to Allah wanting to be close
to Allah, but our heart doesn't
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:46
			sometimes follow because he's not
prepared for that yet. So then how
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:50
			can a he says Keifa usually go
collingbourne? How can a heart
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:55
			become illumined when the forms of
other creatures
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			are fixed, and are reflected on
its own
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:06
			years. So that's maybe wealth,
certain positions in life, certain
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:07
			companies we may want to work for.
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			Which, again, there's nothing
wrong with wanting to work for a
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:14
			company, as long as that doesn't
become your main objective of
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:15
			life.
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:18
			As long as the objective is
something else, I want to work for
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:21
			this company. So what is our work
for that company because of the
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:25
			prestige, it will bring me and you
know, how I will look like in
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:28
			front of others. Another way to
think about that is I want to work
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:32
			for that company. So that I get
enough prestige and respect so
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:34
			that I can give better down maybe
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:39
			I want to get a PhD so that people
take me more seriously.
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:46
			I want to have more money, so that
I can have more, more power to
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:47
			help people.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:49
			So you're getting the same thing.
		
00:05:51 --> 00:05:54
			You're getting the same thing. But
your perspective is different. So
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:58
			what's in your heart is not that
job. But it's what's beyond that
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:01
			job. That people with short
sightedness, they only look at the
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:05
			immediate, the people who Allah
subhanaw taala has given wisdom
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:08
			and Baraka, they will look beyond
it. And they'll have what the
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:12
			other person has or what the other
person wants. But they'd have more
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:14
			Baraka because their perspective
is something much further away.
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			And our perspectives have to be
like that, because we're not
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:22
			limited to this world. So anybody
whose perspective is only this
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:25
			world, then they fooling
themselves, because we know
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:29
			there's more to it than this
world. So our perspective has to
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:34
			extend to that world, in
everything we do. We should be
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:37
			thinking about how it's going to
impact the hereafter, then we're
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:41
			clever. And even in from a worldly
sense, somebody who thinks only
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:44
			for tomorrow is not as intelligent
as somebody who thinks for 10
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:50
			years, somebody who thinks for 50
years, I was sitting in a in a
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:55
			gathering of psychologists and the
teacher actually he said once he
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:59
			ended up in Ireland, and he saw
these guys from India down the
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:02
			Hindus from India, down the road,
this was when the war was going
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:05
			on. You know, 20 years ago, Ira
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:09
			was disguised from India during
here. So his partner, he said, Oh,
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:12
			I actually just spoke to them
yesterday, they're coming, and
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:15
			they're buying up all of these
houses. They're buying up all of
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:18
			these houses here that are selling
for 510 1000 pounds, because
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:21
			nobody wants to live here. They're
buying them, they're going to bank
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:25
			them. And after 30 years, when all
of this stops is the nature of the
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:28
			world, you know, the nature of the
world is like that. Unfortunately,
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:31
			Afghanistan has been going on for
much longer than that. But still,
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:34
			it's the nature of the world that
generally things move around.
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:39
			Then they'll catch up on those
houses, they'll sit there waiting,
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:42
			they're willing to sit with them
for 30 years, 40 years, if it
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:42
			takes them.
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:47
			How far are they thinking for the
world? How far are they thinking.
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:49
			And there's nothing wrong with
thinking like that for the world,
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:52
			as long as you're not cheating,
deceiving anybody. But we've got
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:55
			even beyond that to think we're
not going to just turn to dust.
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:58
			After that there's going to be a
revival or resurrection, or
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:02
			there's going to be a
resurrection. So we believe in
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:04
			that life. And we believe that to
be even more important than this
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:09
			life. So the one Allah subhanaw
taala gives the realisation of
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:13
			that life to will be the most
successful person, when that
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:17
			becomes a reality. And I don't
know, people have probably had
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:18
			this experience. But the older you
get,
		
00:08:20 --> 00:08:23
			and you're trying, you do
sometimes get the sparks of that
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:26
			life in the sense that that is the
most important thing. That
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:29
			realisation if only it stayed for
longer.
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:35
			At weak moments in our life, when
we feel our vulnerability, when we
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:40
			sense our mortality, and we are
going to die one day, then you
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:42
			start thinking about that.
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:48
			But sometimes it's only for that
moment, and the one who are
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:51
			blessed with the light of Allah,
they'll always be thinking about
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:54
			that, because that's what that's
what he mentioned, a thorough who
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:58
			is there other than a remote. But
the most fortunate one is the one
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:02
			who is most abundantly in
preparation for His death and what
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:05
			is to come because that becomes a
reality.
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:09
			Until that doesn't become a
reality, then this world is just
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:13
			normal. This world is just normal.
That's what we do. So we ask Allah
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:19
			to give us the understanding of
the Hereafter making a reality in
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:23
			our sight so that our life then
changes, because then the life
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:28
			takes an absolutely new meaning.
Then your intention start becoming
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			correct. In fact, that's probably
the only way to correct your
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:34
			intention. You can be told about
intentions having to be correct, I
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:38
			mean sincerity. But when you're so
attached to this world, sincerity
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:39
			is very difficult.
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:45
			You may verbally say I want
sincerity. And in some things, you
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:47
			may be able to do that. But the
deeper things are more complex.
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:50
			It's very difficult to have sense.
I could never understand this
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:50
			before.
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:54
			But that's why they say you have
to go to the machine to learn the
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:59
			sincerity. I used to always wonder
about that. But the reason you'll
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			get it
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			It is because that's what they
talk about worse talks about that
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:07
			level of sincerity and where the
whole focus is on that topic.
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:12
			So once you start focusing on the
hereafter, your sincerity will
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:15
			increase. And that's why the
Sahaba sincerity was like none
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:20
			other. That's why for them to even
donate, someone in the path of
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:24
			Allah was worth more than our
donating a big Masjid in the heart
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:28
			of Allah. Because their level of
sincerity, the meaning with which
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:34
			they did it, the whole story of
why they're doing it is a totally
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:35
			different story of ours.
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:41
			So the more nor a person has and
the more other things the person
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:45
			takes out, you'll achieve the same
thing in this world. But you will
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:46
			achieve it for the right reason.
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:49
			And how beautiful is that?
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:53
			To get the same thing to have the
same amount of money to drive the
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:58
			same cause as somebody who's just
for the world, but you're driving
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:00
			and you gotta ask your insha Allah
as well.
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:04
			Remember, this is a different
perspective to resilvered
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:05
			perspective.
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:11
			Sufism in general, what I mean by
that is people who've been
		
00:11:11 --> 00:11:14
			focusing on the hereafter, have
gone through a number of different
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:21
			types of focuses. So there is the
Sufism of asceticism, which was
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:24
			the initial one like Abdullah
Hill, Nevada, couple latest,
		
00:11:24 --> 00:11:27
			certainly all of these were just
about cutting away from the world.
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:30
			He tried to say that to somebody
today, it is much more difficult.
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:33
			It's virtually impossible for most
people to do, especially in this
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:36
			country. So we don't talk about
that anymore. Because that's a
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:40
			hard battle to fight. But dunya
we're living in the dunya, there's
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:43
			no way you escape that, especially
in the West, this is the fitna to
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:48
			survive. This is the challenge of
prosperity that we're dealing with
		
00:11:48 --> 00:11:54
			today. So that's why many of them
are shaking. This is what it is.
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:57
			It's live in this world, but be
connected to Allah subhanaw taala.
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:00
			And hope Allah subhanaw taala
helps us and the Prophet SAW
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:04
			wasn't shown both ways. Though he
preferred the solid way. He showed
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:05
			both ways.
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:11
			In the sense that he brought
expensive things, he did eat some
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:15
			expensive foods when it was there.
But then mostly he decided not to.
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:18
			And his dua was oh, Allah gather
me among the Masaki.
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:24
			Because it's an easier path. It's
an easier path in the hereafter
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:26
			where it matters, though it's more
difficult in this world to live
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:30
			like that. But of course, we like
ease in this world. So we do the
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:34
			other way. Hopefully, Allah
subhanaw taala. I mean, it's when
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:39
			you have to fill in a tax form.
Right? It's the same thing, if you
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:44
			only make 7000 a year, or 9000 a
year, you simply just fill in one
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:47
			type of income, 9000, colors,
finish, no tax, nothing,
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:52
			everything else, Na na na, but
you've got shares, you've got a
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:56
			property, you've got this, you've
got all of these different things,
		
00:12:57 --> 00:13:02
			then you've got to fill in all of
that, provide proof for it, and
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:04
			make sure you're recording it
right. Otherwise, they'll come and
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:08
			check and get you in trouble. So
it gets more complicated. I think
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:13
			this whole tech system is
developed to tell us about the
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:16
			hereafter, that this is the kind
of scrutiny you're going to have
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:20
			some heilala Subhanallah whereas
here we might even be able to
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:22
			trick them by really hiding
something and not declaring
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:25
			something and doing it properly.
But in the hereafter that's
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:27
			absolutely not the password. So
that's where the Moroccan are
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:30
			going to have an easy but nothing
to show you is this is what it is.
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:32
			So
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:38
			how do we live in this world and
do what we're doing shall as long
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:41
			as we avoid the harangue, do the
huddle. Enjoy the Barakat, Allah
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:45
			subhanaw taala has given us this
has been the narrative of many of
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:47
			the Sufis, this has been the
narrative of many of the latest
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:52
			Sufis. In fact, according to the
tea journeys, they saying the way
		
00:13:52 --> 00:13:56
			to get to Allah subhanaw taala is
through sugar. You've got what you
		
00:13:56 --> 00:14:00
			have do sugar of it. But sugar is
a very complex way of doing sugar.
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:02
			If you've got sugar, then you're
not going to use your wealth in
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:02
			Haram.
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:09
			And be honest, I mean, think about
it, to commit any haram, you have
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:12
			to spend money, that money comes
from Allah subhanaw taala so if
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:16
			you look, Allah is giving you
money, and I'm spending that in
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:18
			his disobedience what a blessing.
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:22
			That's why one of the one of the
most prominent laws in hustle and
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:29
			bustle is 670 Dua collection is,
Oh Allah I seek your refuge from I
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:31
			seek your forgiveness from all of
those sins that I've committed
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:33
			using the money you gave me.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:38
			What a blessing is, Can Allah, but
Allah is so Clement, Allah is so
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:41
			forbearing that he forgives us
these things, he overlooks them,
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:45
			he doesn't see as a straightaway,
he doesn't see the straightaway
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:46
			for that. So
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:49
			for our hearts to be
		
00:14:51 --> 00:14:56
			for our hearts to be illumined and
to become more nor more mulawa so
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:59
			that we can get closer to Allah
subhana wa Tada. We're gonna have
		
00:14:59 --> 00:14:59
			to play
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:06
			showerheads. If you've ever seen
any plating, gold plating, silver
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:09
			plating, or copper plating or
anything else that's done, the way
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:14
			they do it is they first had that
the vessel the pot, the surface
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:18
			has to be fully cleared, that can
be a speck of dirt on it. So they
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:22
			really polish it polish it first
to remove all the dirt. In fact it
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:26
			takes longer to clean it if it's
dirty, it takes longer to clean it
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:31
			first. And then the polish will
just come right over really easy.
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:34
			They just have to melt a bit and
then just totally flow over very
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:36
			easily. But it has dirt and
everything it just won't be
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:41
			proper. So the NOR of Allah
subhanho wa Taala to polish our
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:44
			heart Cicala to collude as the
professor Larson said, the
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:47
			polishing of the heart is not
going to happen. When we got for
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:50
			you, it's going to be uneven, it's
not going to be full. If there's
		
00:15:50 --> 00:15:54
			even any space in there to start
with, if the if there's too many
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:57
			forms of other creatures is not
going to happen. That's why then
		
00:15:57 --> 00:16:00
			when a person's heart is not
illumined, they can't have the
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:03
			Quran, Allah subhanaw taala. When
you can't have the walk on Allah
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:08
			subhana wa Tada, the what is the
antithesis to depression.
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:13
			If you think about it, depression,
and Tawakkol are on opposing ends,
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:15
			the only time you'll have
depression is if you've got a lack
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:19
			of power, the more lack of Torquil
you have, the more depression you
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:23
			are prone to having. Because when
you rely on Allah and you know,
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:25
			everything comes from Allah, then
why should there be any
		
00:16:25 --> 00:16:27
			depression, anything happens in
your life, oh, Allah knows what's
		
00:16:27 --> 00:16:30
			going on. This is a kind of a
test, or this is this or this,
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:32
			you're going to be able to deal
with it in the right way.
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:37
			When you don't have the workload,
then there's going to be generally
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:39
			depression comes from a loss of
something.
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:44
			Not from having too much, too much
of a negative thing, maybe but not
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:47
			having too much of a positive
thing. It's less of it. I got no
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:53
			money. I've got diseases, I've got
illnesses. I'm losing my job. I'm
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:57
			losing promotions, I'm getting
accidents. I'm doing this, I'm
		
00:16:57 --> 00:17:01
			doing that all of that is what
leads to depression. And the more
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:05
			darker the heart is the board this
will negatively impacts because
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:06
			there's not the worker.
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:09
			The motor, what could you have you
now to deal with? So it's a
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:12
			setback, okay, for us, it's a
setback world is full of these.
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:16
			This is the way Allah subhanaw
taala may raise Allah or maybe
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:19
			he's teaching me a lesson because
of some deed I did before. We're
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:22
			going to know how to deal with
this is going to make us reflect
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:27
			and if it causes us to Towba I
mean, how great is that? Right? So
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:29
			if a calamity makes us do Toba,
beautiful.
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:33
			And then beyond that, if it makes
us get closer to Allah or he wants
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:36
			to raise my status, we just feel
closer to him that Oh ALLAH is
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:39
			that he gave that to the prophets.
He's tested the prophets. He's
		
00:17:39 --> 00:17:42
			testing us as well. So suddenly,
you just suddenly increase in
		
00:17:42 --> 00:17:43
			that. So
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:48
			that's the way it moved our team.
The Olia of Allah will deal with
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:50
			calamities. Everybody has
calamities in this world. It's
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:52
			just some people know how to deal
with them. Some people don't know
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:56
			how to deal with them. That is the
major difference, because it's the
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:59
			law that helps. Do you have the
fortitude to deal with it? Do you
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:03
			have the Do you have the heart to
deal with it? It's that it's
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:07
			courage. It's courage, in a sense,
in a spiritual sense to deal with
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:10
			it or being cowardly. If there's
no Tawakkol, you will be cowardly.
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:15
			And if you if you have to overcome
and the law of Allah, then you
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:20
			will have the courage, the bravery
to be able to deal with it. So our
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:23
			whole perspective in life is to
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:27
			try to get closer to Allah
subhanaw taala have the note fully
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:31
			in our hearts. And the way to do
that is to shift our attention
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:34
			away from those things which are
occupying our heart that are
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:36
			incorrect. That's what Allah
subhanaw taala says manager and
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:42
			Allah will be Rajan when calvini
fee JioFi you can't have two
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:45
			hearts in there. Allah hasn't
placed two hearts in anybody, any
		
00:18:45 --> 00:18:46
			man's
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:50
			inside. Now it's kind of very
interesting that Jeremy hearts are
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:54
			associated with the chests, as
Allah says Kuru will Latifi sudo.
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:59
			But in this case, he said Jove,
Jove means the inner in a hollow
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:02
			the inner part of the body. The
reason is that and he also said
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:06
			men here, whereas generally he
would leave it general. The reason
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:09
			he said men here is because women
sometimes do have two hearts in
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:14
			their body, not their own hearts,
but their child's heart, right in
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:15
			their body. But
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:21
			the point is the same, nobody has
for themselves two hearts. So you
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:25
			can't have you know, put a
partition in your heart. This is
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:30
			for my dunya and this is for my
earthhero You're, you're the best
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:33
			way to do it is to do your dunya
through your Acura and let it be
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:37
			for your Acura. That is very
important to do what you have to
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:40
			do in this world. But the focus
make that right. And you will see
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:43
			more Baraka in the dunya aspect
because it's coked in the book
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:47
			Ravi aspect of it, that is very
important. So you're doing vicar
		
00:19:47 --> 00:19:50
			of ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada. Now that
is trying to purify the heart.
		
00:19:50 --> 00:19:54
			Now, if we've left all the dunya
if we've left thinking about the
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:58
			dunya and pursuit of the dunya for
the dunya right, so it's pursuit
		
00:19:58 --> 00:19:59
			for the dunya for the accuracy
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:03
			By the suit for the dunya for the
dunya is problematic.
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:07
			Right? So if we've left the
streets of the dunya for the
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:10
			dunya, and then we're doing vicar,
then it will push that the dunya
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:15
			from the previous life out. It
will start purifying, but we're
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:18
			doing Vicodin Hamdulillah, you
know doing maraca, you're doing
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:22
			this and but then at the same
time, we're also continuing our
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:25
			testament of the world. So now
there's a there's a there's a war
		
00:20:25 --> 00:20:30
			raging inside. Now what's going to
dominate? Do we do more than
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:31
			pursuit of the dunya?
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:35
			But do we do more pursuit of the
dunya than than the vicar? We do?
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:39
			Yes, if you're doing five hours of
liquor a day and you're still
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:42
			doing dunya, you'll probably still
win. Because mashallah five hours
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:44
			of liquor is you know, that
concentration is very powerful.
		
00:20:45 --> 00:20:48
			But if you're doing 10 minutes of
liquor, and our Salah isn't
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:52
			counted a vicar because we got no
concentration in it. Right? We're
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:56
			not there yet. And the dunya is
just going to envelope us that's
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:59
			that is that is the challenge that
we're talking about. That's that's
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:02
			the reality that's going on inside
our heart. We just can't feel it.
		
00:21:03 --> 00:21:06
			We just feel the effects of it
outside the cliche in
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:10
			superlatives, everything has a
punish was a little Kulu Victrola.
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:11
			This is what's mentioned in the
heavy
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:18
			so you can do the vicar but you
have to stop the world, you have
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:20
			to change your perspective.
Otherwise, then that vicar will
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:25
			become a Polish. Otherwise, it's
too we're doing even on one that
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:26
			we're going to the masjid then
we're going to the club
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:30
			afterwards, or the other way
around. But generally you spend
		
00:21:30 --> 00:21:32
			more time in a club than the
Masjid. mustiness, 10 minutes.
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:39
			SubhanAllah. The reason we've
closed this door is because it
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:42
			gets too cold. Right?
		
00:21:44 --> 00:21:46
			It's caught, it's closed, but it's
a bit stuffy.
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:50
			But if we open it, it's going to
be colder than in a stuffy. So
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:51
			that's a choice we've made right
now.
		
00:21:52 --> 00:21:53
			Right.
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:58
			The other thing about living on a
main road like this is that you
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:02
			open the windows, you open the
doors, and you're going to you get
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:06
			a lot of dust, and you get dust
everywhere. But I think on this on
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:09
			this floor, because it's such a
movement, you get more dust, I
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:09
			think.
		
00:22:11 --> 00:22:14
			So now we'll close the window to
dust when you don't need it or to
		
00:22:14 --> 00:22:15
			the cold.
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:19
			It's only dust, it's not going to
be any more than that. In fact,
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:22
			the other day, I don't know, just
before hatch, there was one day it
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:26
			rained, like in the middle of the
day very strongly. And it held as
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:31
			well. And I was it was after July
I think and I was outside and I'd
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:38
			left my window open. Like off the
hook and open. And I came back,
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:42
			the head was up to here from that
window, the water and the head was
		
00:22:42 --> 00:22:47
			up to there. And it's quite scary,
you know, because if the good job
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:51
			that computer which was on was
under the table otherwise, that
		
00:22:51 --> 00:22:53
			would have been wet. And I don't
know, it could have been much
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:58
			worse on my work, but hamdulillah
so you close the door to avoid the
		
00:22:58 --> 00:23:00
			dust you close the window to avoid
the dust.
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:07
			In the body, we have four ways
that dust gets in, if not more
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:09
			than US minimally dust, the eyes,
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:11
			the ears,
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:12
			the tongue,
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:15
			and the thought process.
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:20
			These are four ways that our heart
is influenced. And the minimal
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:25
			influence is the dust that comes
from our eyes is going to have a
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:31
			dusting of haram on our hearts if
if not a full blown effect. We're
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:36
			just taking the minimum. So now
just as we close the window just
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:36
			coming in.
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:40
			Then we need to shut
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:44
			the avenues of this dust settling
in our hearts.
		
00:23:45 --> 00:23:49
			So if we keep a focus in our
hearts, then all of these things
		
00:23:49 --> 00:23:50
			will stay in focus.
		
00:23:51 --> 00:23:52
			For men generally
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:56
			their problem is eyes more than
for women.
		
00:23:57 --> 00:24:01
			Women also have problems with
their eyes. Those who like window
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:05
			shopping. The new bag, the new
this any woman's got a new bag,
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:07
			you know and every woman is
carrying a Louis Vuitton bag these
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:11
			days. Right? So everybody wants
one now. Right? For men, it's a
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:15
			different thing. You got much more
variety. As a big fitna. Because
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:18
			everything is a fitna, even though
you can't have some of you still
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:20
			want it. At least we're women,
they can buy that bag, they just
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:23
			have to save up a bit maybe for
men, they can't have what they
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:26
			want. It's a different fitna. It's
a more challenging fitna. It's a
		
00:24:26 --> 00:24:29
			more wasteful fitna, because you
can't even get what you want. And
		
00:24:29 --> 00:24:32
			yeah, hundreds of different
hierarchies you're committing and
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:35
			are committing in a day, and you
can't have all of those so it's
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:39
			more absurd. So we may have a
different fitness. So Men's
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:45
			Fitness generally with the ice,
the is both probably the same. And
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:47
			when it comes to the tongue,
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:52
			it's debatable who's who's worse
in that case, but then the thought
		
00:24:52 --> 00:24:56
			process during the rollover
mentioned that the women are more
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:59
			than that because they think about
these negative thoughts more than
		
00:24:59 --> 00:25:00
			men do. Because
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:02
			Men generally have to be occupied
with different things unless a
		
00:25:02 --> 00:25:05
			person is perverted in their mind.
And that's an exception issue. But
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:09
			there's a lot of lot more jealousy
when it comes in wearing of each
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:13
			other. Right. And that kind of
agreed, and just a lot more, they
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:16
			think more about that because
they're more emotional, right?
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:18
			This doesn't mean that when men
don't have that problem, it's just
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:21
			generally we're just trying to
highlight where the bigger problem
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:22
			lies for them. So
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:28
			these four doors have to be
closed, so that the dirt from them
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:30
			doesn't settle in the heart. If it
does,
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:35
			we know when we look at when our
eyes fall on something,
		
00:25:37 --> 00:25:39
			even in hajus, the case you got
men and women in the Haram, you
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:42
			know that you're gonna, you're
gonna glance at a woman, you just
		
00:25:42 --> 00:25:46
			have to immediately glance away,
that's the test of it, it helps
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:48
			you being in that pure atmosphere,
there's just less shaytani
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:52
			influence, right. And it's not as
bad as what you see in London, you
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:56
			know, for men, I'm saying, right.
So as soon as you see something
		
00:25:56 --> 00:26:01
			coming, your eyes should be close
to it. So we need to divert so
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:04
			that the dust doesn't come in and
sets and we blocked it, we see
		
00:26:04 --> 00:26:05
			that that's coming, we've just
closed the door.
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:10
			Avoid the case. So we need to do
that so that the dust doesn't
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:15
			settle in the heart. Once the dust
settles in the heart, now, I've
		
00:26:15 --> 00:26:19
			got a bit of dust maybe on top of
there, I clean it up, it doesn't
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:23
			make too much of a mess that it
can easily wipe it up. But if you
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:27
			carry on, let the settle and
settle, then it becomes hot, then
		
00:26:27 --> 00:26:30
			it becomes dark. And we've seen
that dust becomes dark, then the
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:34
			cloth that you use becomes dark,
you need actually some spray
		
00:26:34 --> 00:26:38
			afterwards to get rid of it. So
now just imagine where we are now,
		
00:26:38 --> 00:26:42
			all of us who are doing vicar and
we're feeling that it's not having
		
00:26:42 --> 00:26:44
			the effect that we generally hear
about.
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:48
			Well, you know, you can't just
kind of get a cloth and just pass
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:51
			it over you we need to use more
than that. So it's going to take a
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:54
			while if we haven't done thicker
for a long time we've our crimes
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:58
			have been big, then it's going to
take a bit longer. But it doesn't
		
00:26:58 --> 00:27:01
			mean it's not doing anything,
every clock that you wait over
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:04
			there, it's going to make a
difference. It just if you use a
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:06
			specific type of spray, it's going
to be faster.
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:11
			If you try to you just use water,
it's not going to remove it. But
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:14
			when you get some chemicals, it's
going to make a difference. So
		
00:27:14 --> 00:27:17
			that's why they say different
Vickers will help your solid does
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:21
			help every solid does help. But
because the concentration in our
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:24
			solid is not there, it's not
having the same impact. It's just
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:27
			like a cloth going over the top.
But it's not enough to remove the
		
00:27:27 --> 00:27:28
			hard stains that are there.
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:33
			And then you've got the verbal
ticker that is very effective, you
		
00:27:33 --> 00:27:36
			get reward for doing so. But then
you got the Heartseeker which is
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:39
			attacking it directly. That's like
an intravenous That's why they say
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:42
			the maraca is so powerful. And
that's why it's the most difficult
		
00:27:42 --> 00:27:45
			Oh no, I'm gonna that you do is
the most difficult. You can sit
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:48
			and do this be 100 SP is no
problem. 100 is that far no
		
00:27:48 --> 00:27:52
			problem 100 salawat and or even
read Quran, no problem. But try to
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:54
			sit and concentrate for 10 minutes
on your maraca. And that is more
		
00:27:54 --> 00:27:55
			difficult.
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:59
			And anybody who's mastered the
maraca, but that's when you will
		
00:27:59 --> 00:28:03
			see that there must everything
else as well. So it's to close the
		
00:28:03 --> 00:28:07
			door, and to clean up what's
inside and keep the door closed.
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:09
			So that more is not more is not
happening.
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:17
			The easiest way, the easiest way
to sort this matter out is the
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:21
			heart. The heart is something
which loves to be associated with
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:24
			something, the nature of the
heart, you can't say I don't want
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:26
			you to be associated with
anything. You have to give it a
		
00:28:26 --> 00:28:30
			friend, you have to give it
something to
		
00:28:31 --> 00:28:34
			and if it's the wrong thing, then
it's going to be the wrong thing.
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:39
			That's why get the heart connected
to Allah subhanaw taala See, that
		
00:28:39 --> 00:28:43
			everything else will eventually
diminish. Because the heart needs
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:47
			a friend and give it the right
friend and all others will
		
00:28:47 --> 00:28:51
			diminish. We're not giving our
hardware intellectually
		
00:28:52 --> 00:28:55
			just out outwardly we're giving it
the wrong things too indulgent.
		
00:28:57 --> 00:29:00
			So give it the heart and then you
will notice that it will have a
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:01
			big difference.
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:07
			And I will know who Dino harness
for Allah is the pure Dean that is
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:09
			the pure Dean is for Allah
subhanaw taala.
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:18
			And the root of all enhancement is
to have the heart associated with
		
00:29:18 --> 00:29:19
			Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:29:21 --> 00:29:23
			then the figure of the ocular will
come.
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:29
			When that happens,
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:35
			you're body, our body and our
heart will actually the heart is
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:40
			very powerful. People with certain
allergies. They can tell I've got
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:44
			a nephew who apparently can tell
if there's egg in food without
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:48
			even tasting it to another square
egg. I cannot believe it. Right.
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:51
			You mostly gets it right as well.
I think you may get it wrong or
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:55
			sometimes I don't know. But
because he doesn't he doesn't like
		
00:29:55 --> 00:29:57
			egg so he's got such an aversion
that he can kind of like just tell
		
00:29:57 --> 00:29:59
			it to me or something. Something
weird like that.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:04
			If that can happen with people
like that, then there are many
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:06
			stories about people who can smell
haram.
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:11
			For example, there's one of the
great pious individuals of the
		
00:30:11 --> 00:30:13
			Indian subcontinent Mirza
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:17
			Messiah, John John His name
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:23
			is once he somebody brought him
some grapes. Generally people
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:26
			bring him something he needs it
but this time he refused to eat
		
00:30:26 --> 00:30:29
			these grapes. Why not? Because
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:35
			after somebody insisted he said I
smell corpses. I smell corpses
		
00:30:35 --> 00:30:36
			from these grapes.
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:42
			Dead people from this great now
what dead people association with
		
00:30:42 --> 00:30:46
			these grapes. Now this person was
the one of the hot themes one of
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:49
			the people who are close to him,
he knew that there's something
		
00:30:49 --> 00:30:52
			more than it's not just an
arbitrary statement he's making.
		
00:30:52 --> 00:30:55
			So he went and found out where he
got the grease on so the person
		
00:30:55 --> 00:30:57
			who bought the grapes off the
person in the market, whoever he
		
00:30:57 --> 00:31:00
			was, as a where'd you get your
grapes from? He said, Oh, I buy it
		
00:31:00 --> 00:31:04
			from such and such a supplier. So
he went to that guy for a
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:07
			supplier. He says Wait, you know,
where do you get your grapes
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:10
			because I grow them? He says yes.
But you know there must be
		
00:31:10 --> 00:31:12
			something more to it than nice is
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:17
			the this is what the Sheikh said
or this is he mentioned something
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:21
			and it came out that this person
was using the public graveyard
		
00:31:21 --> 00:31:24
			land to grow his grapes in
illegally.
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:29
			So is it haram land is growing and
the Sheikh is reading the corpses
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:31
			from the and he is refusing to eat
is
		
00:31:33 --> 00:31:36
			one of the scholars of the past
and Tanya Eliza Dean ignored the
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:40
			salam. Once he was brought a gift
by one of his friends who used to
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:44
			live one of a close associate,
obviously used to live outside the
		
00:31:44 --> 00:31:47
			city. He sent him a number of
different things, including some
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:52
			cheese with one of his servants.
So as the sermon is coming with
		
00:31:52 --> 00:31:56
			all of this stuff, he tripped and
the cheese fell down. We're not
		
00:31:56 --> 00:31:58
			talking about cheddar cheese.
We're talking about you know, the
		
00:31:58 --> 00:32:02
			January the white cheese that you
know the feta cheese kind of
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:05
			started probably it fell down
became all dirty and everything.
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:08
			So he thought I can't take this.
So when he got into the city,
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:13
			Egypt into Cairo, he went to one
of the local cheese sellers and he
		
00:32:13 --> 00:32:15
			bought some he's a Christian
cheese seller, and he brought it
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:20
			from her right to replace what he
had lost. When he got to the chef,
		
00:32:20 --> 00:32:23
			he gave her everything. The Sheikh
took everything except that Jesus
		
00:32:23 --> 00:32:27
			says I can't have the cheese. Why
can you have the cheese is I smell
		
00:32:28 --> 00:32:29
			I smell Nasrani from
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:35
			Christianity from this can't be
you know, I just just got an issue
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:35
			with that one.
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:42
			And so hallelujah, it was so
perfect. So the body Allah is
		
00:32:42 --> 00:32:45
			perfectly as mentioned in the
Hadith, the more a person gets
		
00:32:45 --> 00:32:48
			closer to Allah subhana wa Tada.
First you have to follow the
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:51
			follow up and you will get close
to Allah. Then after that you
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:54
			continue as they say he had he
says you get closer and closer to
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:57
			Allah with the more thicker that
you do until he becomes the hands
		
00:32:57 --> 00:33:01
			with which you touch the eyes with
which you see, and that you're
		
00:33:01 --> 00:33:04
			divinely protected so that Allah
will protect you, you will make
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:05
			less mistakes in this world.
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:13
			Right? So may Allah subhanho wa
Taala give us that the two ways to
		
00:33:13 --> 00:33:16
			get to Allah subhanaw taala is
cathro to thicken the barrel
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:21
			sunnah, abundant vicar inside and
as much sunnah practice in our
		
00:33:21 --> 00:33:26
			behavior, in our conduct in our
dress in our outlook, and
		
00:33:26 --> 00:33:30
			interaction with others. This is
the way of success. The inside is
		
00:33:30 --> 00:33:34
			being fortified by the vicar and
the outside is being predicted by
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:37
			our behavior and we're a form of
data to others as well.
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:42
			The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam this famous story in the
		
00:33:42 --> 00:33:44
			best means of voiceovers and I
feel like doing Zina
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:48
			and the prophets of Allah why do
some places hand on his chest and
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:51
			he said Allahu McPhee lumber who
were asked in follow general ALLAH
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:58
			forgive his sins and make good his
his private parts and all the
		
00:33:58 --> 00:33:59
			desire disappeared.
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:07
			So this is what you call what the
sheriff will call Selby. Negative,
		
00:34:07 --> 00:34:10
			negating a negating outpouring
		
00:34:12 --> 00:34:17
			with the DA the profits or loss
are made, right? managed to stop
		
00:34:17 --> 00:34:19
			or take this desire out of his
heart.
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:24
			You if you have any Herranz you
don't tell the dunya.
		
00:34:26 --> 00:34:30
			Just like you have something on
your body, you don't show you our
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:33
			two people. But just like you go
to a doctor and you'd have to show
		
00:34:33 --> 00:34:37
			I've got a spot here. I've got
this rash here. And you have to
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:40
			open up for that much for them to
see and diagnose what the problem
		
00:34:40 --> 00:34:44
			is. Likewise, this is the
justification for telling the
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:48
			shape the specific things that is
challenging you although it's hard
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:50
			to tell anybody else because
you're not supposed to reveal your
		
00:34:50 --> 00:34:53
			firearms. But this is done a lot
more than just like you're not
		
00:34:53 --> 00:34:57
			supposed to show your older to
anybody. You're hidden parts
		
00:34:58 --> 00:34:59
			except to a doctor
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:01
			again only to that amount
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:08
			so that the sheet can help suggest
how to get otherwise it's just
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:10
			going to be general guidance.
		
00:35:11 --> 00:35:14
			If it's particular, the machine
can direct that particular
		
00:35:14 --> 00:35:18
			guidance to that. And do Allah
just like the prompts that allows
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:22
			them to go out. So that has that
negating influence on eliminated
		
00:35:22 --> 00:35:23
			insurance.
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:27
			One of the she said that the best
way to get close to Allah subhanaw
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:30
			taala, like this is through Booker
and de facto, which means by
		
00:35:30 --> 00:35:33
			praying, and just contemplating
Allah subhanaw taala, that's
		
00:35:33 --> 00:35:37
			Yamanaka. It's part of the thicker
of your maraca to do that.
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:44
			And generally, for the men, it's
more difficult. But there's a nice
		
00:35:44 --> 00:35:47
			statement in there in order it
says that jump in Sansei money
		
00:35:47 --> 00:35:53
			Nicoletti to bury Vegeta Bollini
Sharia to die now that applies to
		
00:35:53 --> 00:35:56
			that person. Hopefully everybody
understands what to do. Basically,
		
00:35:56 --> 00:36:00
			when a person has a * has
an * then he becomes
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:02
			valid and it becomes responsible
and accountable, he has to make
		
00:36:02 --> 00:36:05
			his solid is going to be
accountable. And then he says or
		
00:36:05 --> 00:36:10
			money say in some nickel J do
obligatory Kapunda probably
		
00:36:10 --> 00:36:13
			applies a bit more to men than
women. But when a person comes out
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:18
			of his sexual thoughts, then he
will become a mature in terms of
		
00:36:18 --> 00:36:22
			in terms of the believer, he will
become closer to Allah subhanaw
		
00:36:22 --> 00:36:25
			taala because that's one of our
biggest challenges. We want to
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:31
			work so hard on our heart that not
only do we stop doing sins, which
		
00:36:31 --> 00:36:34
			is the first stage but how
beautiful will it be that we stop
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:35
			thinking about it?
		
00:36:38 --> 00:36:41
			How beautiful it will be if we
stop thinking then it's not even a
		
00:36:41 --> 00:36:47
			challenge anymore. It's not even a
challenge. May Allah subhanaw
		
00:36:47 --> 00:36:48
			taala give us that Sophie
		
00:36:55 --> 00:36:56
			you're going to study a low
		
00:37:00 --> 00:37:02
			volume which is a one
		
00:37:05 --> 00:37:09
			of a lux told to us to Allah

			Allah, Allah at the same time that
we do that can we also allow other
		
00:37:33 --> 00:37:37
			things to corrupt our heart or
Allah will not allow us and help
		
00:37:37 --> 00:37:40
			us to protect our heart from the

00:37:40 --> 00:37:44

			Allah, Oh Allah, we ask that You
grant us a true understanding of
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:03
			the nature of this world. Oh Allah
that You give us the true, true

			is something we claim and we want
and we desire and we verbally
		
00:38:16 --> 00:38:20
			express. Now Allah allow us to
internalize it, and our heart to
		
00:38:20 --> 00:38:24

We're seeing things we verbally

You're so clever, and that you've,
