Learn how Rahman and Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi wa Salatu was Salam
ala so you didn't more saline wider early he your Sami he you
are Baraka seldom at the Sleeman cathedral Eli Yomi Dean Amma
buried
fourth house anaemia where I feel Iran for eternal Mojo desert Binya
called or pseudo Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in the
mala Mala bin, the two were in the murli collimator in Manoa
says really investigate
your near, inspect your near
one's intention behind any action needs to be really, really
inspected deeply to make sure that it's right. Why do you feel your
order and know your real motive?
Recognize your real motive? If you recognize your real motive, then
you'll know whether it's wrong. And thus it needs to be correct.
Am I doing this to gain praise? Am I doing this just for the money?
Am I doing this just to
build myself up and get a better resume?
Some more entries onto my resume, it looks better, or am I doing it
for the sake of Allah for in the images because reward recompense
repayment is all based on intention in the Sharia. It's all
based on intention. So as a sole allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
said that actions are according to intentions and for every person is
that which is that what he has intended?
So
I think that really speaks for itself. Because when you really
think, why am I doing this? And the way to think about that, is
that okay? Am I doing this just for praise? Am I doing this for
payment? Am I doing this to
get more acclaim and
a better?
You know, an award or something like this? And the way to figure
that out whether we're honest or not in that, because sometimes
you'll think no, no, no, I'm doing it for Allah.
And these things are just kind of side points, you know. So the way
to really test yourself you think fourth house, which means fast,
which means like,
you do a surgery, you know, when you do a surgery, look inside and
look properly that's that's basically what he's telling you to
do.
So, how would you do this? So what you say is okay,
if
I don't get paid for this and what I still do it
if I'm not gonna get any claim out of this, would I still do it? Like
genuinely? And then you'll figure out whether you feel oh, man, if I
don't get paid? Maybe not. You understand? Maybe not. And that's
fine. That's fine. You know, like as long as you think though it's
still fine.
Now what we must think is, what's the point of it just for the
money? How much am I going to make out of this? You know, how much a
claim am I going to get?
And okay, with money it's something you're either gonna get,
you're not gonna get the lighter pay you're they're not going to
pay you in something right?
But when it comes to a claim that you don't really know Right? And
in most cases you probably will get some a claim. If you do
something well you'll get some kind of a claim. But then you
think to yourself that look if I do it for Allah purely that's my
objective, then I'm still gonna get my a claim. It doesn't mean
that it's mutually exclusive. If I do it for Allah, I won't be paid.
If I do it for Allah I won't get a claim. Do you understand? So
that's the way to kind of investigate ourselves to see what
am I doing it for what I do it if I won't get that thing and then
say no, let me do it for this and try your best now.
Initially, when we do this, we may not get you know it will still be
polluted the intention will still be polluted will still come in
maybe right because it's difficult a mind game is very particular.
But then eventually inshallah if we keep doing that, it can become
refined.
And then he says, worldsim Taqwa Allah, hold on to hold, hold very
strongly unto
fear of Allah because a Muslim, a Muslim woman Salim and nurse who
mean yesterday he will is Sunday. Now he links this aspect with the
Taqwa of Allah. He says hold on to the Taqwa of Allah. Now generally
we feel Taqwa of Allah is making sure that we feel God Allah, Allah
subhanaw taala. Even when, you know nobody's watching us and we
kind of have a very limited understanding of the Taqwa of
Allah. So then he says, because then he mentioned this hadith
almost the moment Solomon Natsu mean end he will listen while
minimum Amina nurse, I mean a national Baba ikaho that the
Muslim the true Muslim
is the one who
is
People are saved from his hand and his tongue.
It's part of Taqwa to not be abusive to others,
and the movement is the one who
other other people are saved from his harms.
Oh Bakr Siddiq are the Allah Han who says it tequila be thority
fear Allah with his obedience.
What ultimately Allah be taqwa
and be obedient to Allah with his taco.
So fear Allah, through his obedience
and be obedient to Allah through His Taqwa.
That's how do you do that? Do you understand?
So, fear Allah, through his obedience, So fear Allah through
His by sorry betta RTS by his obedience. So in his obedience,
you have to fear Allah in the way you do it and everything else. So
you have to fear Allah subhanaw taala in that regard, and then you
have to be obedient to Allah through His Taqwa because by doing
Taqwa you are obedient to Allah. The more Taqwa you gain is good.
The motagua You gain is through doing more worship, and then by
doing more worship that will increase your taqwa. Strengthen
your taqwa. So taqwa and worship go together, basically do more
obedience to Allah subhanaw taala. Well, the half Jada come in Dima
ill Muslimeen he really is emphasizing this point that your
hand should be light should be devoid of any
of the blood of Muslimeen meaning your hand should not have anything
to do with Muslim blood and murder and killing or in anything well
but to Newcomb in a morally him your stomach should be free of
their wealth while he saw no coming out of him and your tongue
should be free of the honor so don't be abusive Don't be
murderous and abusive with your hands basically. And also your
stomach should be away from their wealth which means to take things
from them which are not ours
well has enough sack of equally hot rotted
this is
well ha Sibneft sack of equally hot rotten. This one is difficult.
This is
introspect with your enough's.
Inspect your loves for every thought.
Inspect your loves for every thought we do a series of thoughts
and actions and then we worry about and this is talking about
forget actions.
We've done an action okay, why did we do this? Are we doing an
action? This talking about every thought? How would you do that?
Let's think about it. How do you do that? We just about managed to
feel after three days. You know like when something goes really
wrong? That Hey, what have we been doing these last three days? How
many wrongs have we done in these last three days? And this is
talking about every thought that comes in our mind? How do you do
that? That seems very very difficult.
And he says what are Kybella equally nervous? Every breath you
should be concerned about hola Morocco of Allah rockin from
Morocco.
Which means you should be meditating over Allah subhanaw
taala
with every nervous every breath
how's that even possible? Well, let's see. If no claim Rahim Allah
He explains this.
He says
make sure you repel the bad and evil thoughts from your mind. If
you don't do so, it will become a desire. A thought comes in then if
you don't repel it, it will then become a desire Okay, I want that
thing now. For however, if you get to this stage now declare all war
against this.
If you don't do this at this stage Surah Azima tinware him mutton.
Now it will become a firm resolve not just the desire, firm result I
want this. I am going to get it for him. This will become your
aspiration
for in them to the effect you can still repel it and still fighting
still get rid of it. If you don't then of course what's the next
stage is going to become solid fairland is going to become an
action now.
is going to become an action. For in lump now what you have to do.
It's an action now for Ilam
To the Riku. If you now to the record, if you now don't make
amends for it,
if you don't make amends for it how we'll do it the by doing the
opposite of it now, which means to abstain from it and doing a good
deed instead, sorta to either turn, now it becomes a habit.
This is the progression, this is the trajectory of how things come
into our lives, their thoughts, they become desires, then they
become once and firm resolutions, then they become our hammer, then
they become actions, and then they become adults, to try to stop it
at any one of these stages, at least stop it
for a limb to the affair, how solid fairland for a limb to daddy
could be read the surah rather than for your Sabu article IndyCar
one, once he becomes an adult, now it becomes difficult for you to
move away from us.
So let us at least try now that anything that's already added, and
I'm sure we have many other many habits, we deal with those and we
don't make any new audits.
If we can at least do that that's in sha Allah, that will be at
least one benefit of the path. Don't make any new audits, if we
really look if we really look at ourselves, right?
Once you become mature, and everything like this, and you
don't have any bad friends, is that generally we're probably
stuck with a number of audits generally stuck with a number of
habits that just don't go away.
Especially if you're a concerned individual, you probably won't
take on anything new.
Every desire of ours that is problematic, every bad habit we
have that is an issue, right? Then they are generally going to be
something very old. That's what we're generally coming. I mean,
generally, generally speaking, once a person is on the path,
they, they don't really get into new bad problems.
If it is a bad problem, a new one is generally linked to one of the
old ones.
know
somebody's got a problem with eating issues. Eating too much
just lust for good that that's going to be generally everything's
going to be related to that somebody's got a shower problem,
desire problem is going to be related to them, you know, then
they're not going to be cheating. You know, they're not going to
develop, learn, you know, to learn to swindle people, that if
somebody's got a problem with that already, then that's probably
going to be their main problem. But a person who's got a stomach
problem, who's got a desire problem, right? Sexual desire
problem, right, they're generally going to be restricted to these
things, they probably won't go and start swindling people, right and
doing other kinds of issues.
So it's these habits that have to be broken, and to stop any new
ones from becoming.
And the reason for this is that
for any ailment, if the reason, any volitional knowledge, any
optional knowledge, right and you know, as you can make, get through
choice, the beginning of all of that is always thoughts and
whispers, it has to start somewhere for you to go and choose
something you have to have had a thought come in your mind about
it. Otherwise, how do you go and choose something if the thought
has never come into your mind, you know, there has to be that bridge
to it.
The reason is that thoughts, they
make
assumptions, the saw words, they provide these conceptions in our
minds, the Spirit, then
make things bring bring bring about decisions about certain
things. And the decisions obviously then bring about the
action
and then an abundant repetition of them becomes an addict. That's how
it happens.
So to not get not get there is to do Salah Hill, hotter.
Salah wholehearted, which means to rectify the thoughts in the first
place, then they won't build up to that level. Unfortunately, we only
become we generally only come on most people, a lot of people, they
only become concerned once they have a lot of issues.
Then they stopped getting new issues. But now we have to fight
our old issues.
It's the very, very fortunate ones who have been taught from a young
discerning age, to be very concerned about their thoughts so
that they don't get into the wrong company at all. And even if they
do, then they're very careful and they don't you know, they don't
become affected because they're very concerned about what it
means.
What it may do?
I mean nowadays, for example, with the exposure we have to media and
everything else.
Looking at a normal picture of a woman, for men looking looking at
known picture a woman on a newspaper, or a magazine or a
billboard, it's not like a big deal anymore. Okay, * we try
to avoid but normal pitches, what's the big deal? A lot of
people think.
So I was just speaking to an individual, this is not an island.
And he was just talking about some issue. And he said, he said for
us, he was just talking about the his approach to aroma.
What got me was that he said, he says, you know, way, even when
we're looking at a newspaper or something like this, and we see a
woman, they will put our hand over and read the rest of it.
So we think Obama will do even more than us. So basically, he was
just mentioning that this is their action.
And he put their hand on there so that they don't, you know, have to
look at it. Now, even the free papers that we have, like the
metro, if you ever pick there is full of junk, there's about three
pages of news on the the first three page and then after that,
it's just literally all junk. And then even the standard is a bit
better than the Metro I think slightly bit. But I think one of
them I remember has a has a middle section called guilty pleasures.
Right, it has guilty pleasures. And I think it's all celebrity
gossip, or something like that, which is generally going to be
filled with awful pictures and things like this.
So we're just bombarded with this, because this is this cells, this
is the world with cells, it's just everywhere a person has to have
the daily hit of these things. Otherwise, the day is not gone
well.
So that's constant food for addiction. Basically.
The problem with all of these things is that once you look at
them
that leads to looking at more and more and more.
See, because any whisper or any thought in the heart, it generally
causes us to think about it and to keep remembering it so we may get
distracted, but it will come back to thinking about it. That's
eventually what happens. And then after it makes us think Hey, we
should do something about this, we should do something and then
eventually it leads to the limbs and then we have to put it into
action because the limbs have to follow what's in the heart. And
what the thought and whispers
so then after it becomes solidified, and it becomes that
when you keep doing it
so what what is being said is that the human being has not been given
the ability to completely avail himself from evil thoughts.
Human has not been given an ability that okay, hold us we're
gonna protect ourselves from any evil thought that comes in our
mind. Just not going to come. That would be wonderful. The Whispering
that would that's just you can't do that. So La Quwata Allah
Kataria?
Well, I'm your otter EMA total hearted. We haven't been given the
ability to just remove that completely.
For in her day John Wiley he who juman Nevsky right, it's just
going to attack except the unequivocal Iman you will actually
tour Eno who Allah Kabuli Sunni her worry though who be Musa
Kanata healer who were Allah definitely Akbar he her wa Cara
has the hula hoop.
The only thing that can stop us from being influenced by them, you
can't stop them from coming. But you can stop us from being
influenced by them, which is by Quwata Emanuel Arkell.
Which means to strengthen your iman
by being with the righteous by doing the vicar and Quwata
Lachelle.
to local why, to really understand intelligently understand what is
good for us what is bad for us.
That's using the Akal for it. And having that mind over you know,
the willpower, through the intellect, convincing the
intellect that we mustn't do these things to only accept the good
thoughts that come in and to sift out the bad thoughts Okay, no, no,
no go no time for them. And one of the best ways to do that is to
stay in good actions to get yourself busy in good deeds and
you have no time for these things.
But you can't just get yourself busy in good physical deeds. You
have to have vicar to strengthen the heart so that you don't feel
like you need you don't feel like you need to relax by doing this. A
lot of people are doing very good deeds but then they feel they need
to relax and chill out by watching something haram
that's the way to relax. Of course the best way is to remove any
you know any ability to do so by removing removing any guy
budgets and so on. But I think that's extremely difficult with
the way things are becoming our life. I don't think that's going
to happen.
Some countries have actually gone. Pretty much cash catch, cashless
places like Sweden. It's mainly foreigners and tourists that come
in and spend cash and the local coffee shops and that they get
very perturbed with that because it cost them more to deal with it.
Because cash you have to count, you have to preserve you have to
save you have to bank when it's all cashless, it's all automatic.
So some countries in the Northern Europe has become like that
already. Whereas Germany and etc. and England is halfway England is
halfway under under skills. It's halfway. Germany is Germany and
Italy, Italy is still not that, you know, it's very much into
their cash still.
But all of these things are it's all with the phone, everything's
going to happen with the phone.
So it becomes impossible, nearly impossible to avoid these things.
What are given Luffy equally nervous so now be mindful of Allah
in every breath. Color O'Meara the Allahu anha Cebu and forsaken
cobbler and to her Cebu Amara, the Allahu Anhu said that take account
of yourself reckon with yourself before you are reckoned with was
the new ha cobbler and Tucson who and wait before you are weighed
yourself meaning your actions are weighed yourself, weigh them
yourself so that on the Day of Judgment, you know that there'll
be clear
we weigh these things beforehand so that we know when we go there
it will be very clear.
What does the you know the layout of the earthworm and adorn
yourself for the great confrontation or presentation. Yo
Mala tuffa mean Come healthier? When nothing hidden will remain
hidden. Nothing that appears to be hidden, will remain hidden.
You see thoughts and whispers in the heart they are that go around
the knifes
right? The knifes is basically
no, these thoughts. They're like the seeds that you put into a
mill.
Seeds are like what you put into a grinding mill. Now if you see
these proper grinders, not our go grind has been the big stone
grinding grinders. They are mashallah so strong because
they're literally big slabs of stone, and you just have to go
round and round with them. And they crush everything underneath.
So when that mill is going round, you know, like there's a they've
got a buffet or something
tied to it. And it's going round and round. Right, this goes round
and round. And people just go and put their flower inside and it
comes out put their sorry, put their seeds inside and come out of
flower. So basically, when it's going round, it has to grind
everything that comes into its path.
Anything of the size that is able to go in it will grind it.
So
if somebody puts in their wheat, it will grind it. If somebody puts
in their small stones, it will grind that as well. Whatever you
put in there, it's going to grind it.
So
likewise with the with the knifes it's constantly grinding and
processing, you put good things in there, it will grind it and it
will produce good. And if you put bad in there that will also grind
it it has to grind whatever comes in. That's why it's best not to
allow the evil folks to come in in the first place. So hustle bossy,
Rahmatullah Allah He said that a believer is needs to be you know,
like we go on guard other places, protect other places, protect our
homes, close the door, lock the door, put alarms on an electric
fences and so on, you go in different places, depending on the
amount of you know, we don't have electric fences around here, the
most you'll have around over your fence, maybe right is those spikes
or something like this to just deter people, you go South Africa
and places like this to have bars on the windows as well. They have
electric electrified fencing, they have a guard dog, they have guards
at the door, we don't have all of that, because that the danger here
is not as much as the danger is there based on the danger. That's
how much we put on ourselves. So clearly, when a person realizes
that there are real dangers, then they should put that much more
more effort to do that. That's why he says in the moment when either
NFC the believer has to be
has to basically stand up with responsibility for himself must
recognize that responsive you have stable enough Sir Who Lilla heater
Allah, you should be constantly introspecting himself for the sake
of Allah and the hisab will be light on the day of judgment on
such a people who did Maha Sabha have themselves in the dunya
because obviously when we do Maha Sabha, we will be concerned about
Sundays and hopefully we will then sift them out. Then that is the
less problem
Having in the hereafter because, you know, you go with a proposal.
And the best proposal generally is the one that has been fully
refined. They've taken out whatever is irrelevant. They've
taken out the fluff. They've just got the focus. They figured out
how it's wanted to be presented. They've presented it like that.
That's going to be accepted more easy, right? Because the other
people can relate to it. Likewise, in this world, it's the same
thing. We're in La chapelle haisa. Will your multi Mr. Coleman, a
huddle, huddle, amor, meanwhile, at Maha Sabha.
The difficulty of the Hisar will be on those people who did all of
these things without any kind of Maha Sabha
without any kind of introspection.
See, he then explained something. This is very interesting. He says
that a believer
he's talking about how we are generally in our everyday life, we
suddenly see something that interests us.
So we say Wallahi neelesh the Heke you know, I love this thing. I
want this thing.
We're in the Columbian Hagerty.
I need you you are a need of mine. Is it really a need? Because we
like it we make it a need. I want this this is necessary for me.
But the problem is that
he's got to some shuck, maybe I can't have you. You know, he's
he's got some doubts around it. Because maybe It's haram, maybe
there's an issue. Maybe it's a new new type of investment, or
whatever it is, or there may be some doubt about it. Sometimes you
want something but you're unable to get it because you don't have
the money for it. Or you have to go through too many hurdles to get
it or something like this. So then you will try to placate yourself
by saying
why do I need that for?
Why do I need this for this just the mind works that we the way we
work with things we justify to ourselves whether we need
something we don't need something. Basically what he's saying is that
your knifes will never be completely devoid and free of
these kinds of motivations. This is going to be your constant
challenge. shake a shake him now Araby he used to say that our
mushy, his mushy, you know, before the fifth sixth century, they used
to do Maha Sabha of their selves over anything they spoke, or they
physically did.
Their Maha Sabha and introspection was restricted to just what they
did and what they said,
Well, you do know who feed after him. And the really, the really
serious ones among them, what they used to do is to actually write
these things down. They should record these things, this is what
I've done.
Because that becomes more grave and you've written it it's not
imaginary only.
So I've written it I've you know like become serious. So if you go
to a lot of these self help places, what do they do they start
making yourself confess these things write down all these
personal exercises that make you start doing these things. So this
is what the Mashenka been doing all the way along for themselves.
They don't need any Deepak Chopra and all these people to to help
them right.
For either kind of battle Orisha has Cebu new Fusa home.
So they used to write down any anything they said. Or anything
that they did throughout the day. And after Isha then they would
look at all of these things.
Who has the time for this today? The day the Isha comes, all of a
sudden, you know, you know within so many actions back to back, that
there is no time for pausing between anytime we did have in
between
has all been taken up now. Before, okay, you had TV.
Before that you have to be sitting in your home, if you were on the
bus, there wasn't much you could be distracted by except by reading
a book. But now you could be sitting anywhere and your phone is
going to keep you occupied wherever you may be. It's so small
to be able to do that.
So we have no time to think. But anyway, these people they used to
actually have time to write down after each action. And then they
used to do make Maha Sabha of themselves.
They used to bring out their record and look at whatever
did they've done or whatever they've said.
And then they would try to
they would try to deal with each one of them if one of them needed
to stay far they would make a mistake or if there was something
that they did, which was really bad they would do Tober and if
there was something that needed the sugar of Allah they would do
sugar of Allah Al Hamdulillah I did this this this stuff that
Allah did this. Then they would sleep.
Now what a clean sleep that is what a clean slate every night.
You've just cleared your account what Allahu Allahu Allah that's
just wonderful.
I think we just don't even have that we would have to probably sit
after Isha if we even get that time and then like, Okay, what did
I do today?
You know, that would be another mental exercise would be to
tied for by after Isha to do that
Allahu Akbar so they used to do that he says with this
fuzzy Edna Ali if you have a bob however, if not Robbie says that
no, we want we have to go beyond them in this regard. We've gone
beyond them. We also do our thoughts.
We also have to
record our thoughts
for Kunta Naka, you do man who had the to be here no husana When a
whom will be here. We are also going to record we also record
what goes through our mind. And what we discuss in our minds. Why
no ha Cebu ha ha Hee. And then after that, we also make Maha
Sabha of the in the evening.
So you think we could do this?
You think there's any way we could actually record things? I mean,
let's just try to do it. We've got two weeks inshallah until the next
measureless.
Let us see if every day for the next two weeks.
I mean, I would rather I would rather make it easy and say let's
do it for three days out of the next two weeks. But if I say that
what we're going to do is, we're going to probably say we'll do it,
we'll do it. We'll do it. And then the next week, we'll come right.
So let's do it for the next three days.
Tomorrow is Monday.
Actually today, Saturday, Sunday. So today's Sunday,
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Let us try throughout the day to record
any major any you know, aside from eating, drinking any anything else
that we do, when we go to visit somebody, write it down.
We go out to eat, write it down. We read a book write it down.
We watch something write it down. Then at the end of the day, let us
look at each of these things
and do Shakur
hamdulillah able to visit a relative
because that would help us to clear our intention in regards to
that as well.
If he's obviously anything wrong, we make a stick for October we do
that for three days and see how we can do it.
We'll we'll discuss it inshallah when we come back next time, but
let's do this for three days.
Right of course more days, but minimum these three days. Let's
see how that helps us. Insha Allah.
What hafler fidi Nick.
Fear Allah with regards to your deen what ju fi jimmy o Mourik.
And always, in every matter of yours, have hoping Allah subhanaw
taala
what's better Allah sabak
And be patient over all the difficulty that comes your way.
Because earlier the Allahu Anhu said love to have them back.
Don't fear anything in this world except your sins. There is no
nobody else to fear because in the grand realm of thing in the grand
scheme of things in terms of the Hereafter, the only thing we have
to worry about is our
is our sins. Because even if we are attacked or killed, I mean,
and you do somebody you still get something in the hereafter for if
you look at it from the hereafter perspective, so the only thing to
be worried about is our is our sins. One a third you Illa Robuck
and the only one to have any hope in is your Lord. Don't have hope
in anybody else, that they will do something for you.
While you're still here, Lady Leia A Yes, yes. Yes, other hat diadem.
And the person who doesn't know something, should not feel
embarrassed to go and ask until he knows. So when we don't know
something, when we need to know something, go and ask and find out
about it. embarrassment for the shittier to learn something about
the shear is extremely harmful. There is no shyness in that
regard. person should go and ask and shouldn't learn. And on the
other hand, well, I used to he may use alarm in your cooler Ireland.
And anybody who is asked I mean just certainly generally refers to
Allah ma, right. But anybody who is questioned about something that
they don't know, he shouldn't feel embarrassed to say, I don't know.
I'll find out.
That's why if not Abdullah burr relates.
He's got a very famous book called Jermy or by Ernie Lamy were
formerly a compendium
of
highlighting what knowledge and its fidelity is. It's a wonderful
book on the subject. He says that some of the earlier I
would say that you need to learn how to say I don't know.
Don't just and he says you shouldn't learn to say, I know I
know. I know everything and then make up stuff. Just be honest
That's why the greatest respect I have from among my teachers is
for for the for the one that used to say that I don't know, I'll
find out for you. Because I know he's being honest. And I know when
others would, the way I felt anyway that they were trying to
make something up just to answer the question at the time.
And I think that's unfair, because, you know, we're not
asking for your speculation.
Right? What is that? We know, there's a complicated issue. We
need speculation, we need assessment, right? Because we've
done all the research. So now I just need your thoughts on this.
We're not asking for your thoughts. Were asking for the
knowledge and its responsibility, and you go and find out the
knowledge and mashallah or Sufis. I was like this mufti, his name
moved into here, what his name is. And I asked him a question, he
says,
Calico de la, like, I'll find out tomorrow for you. And then you'd
actually go and he'll bring me the book, sometimes they look, this is
what it is.
Because if you learn to say, I don't know, then somebody will
teach you until you will know.
And if you say I do know,
then people will question you until they will exhaust you and
you will not know. Right?
So if somebody asked Abu Yusuf, he was on a member, now we use Rahim
Allah, he was on the member and somebody said, asked him a
question. He says,
it says, An Akula alum want one potentially 300 MACOM. You know,
you're saying you don't know and you're sitting up there.
So he says, Yes, I'm only sitting here based on the amount of
knowledge I have. Because if I sat here according if I said,
according to my ignorance, and I'd be up in the up in the sky,
we have to start some kind of introspection in our life. Because
without that, I don't think we're gonna we can improve. We have to
do our thing and it's such an fortify our heart but to really
understand where we're going wrong. And I'm not saying just the
major thing, we understand the major things we're doing wrong.
But even the minor things when you start attacking them in attacking
them in sha Allah introspecting them then inshallah it will help
us
because a lot of a lot of minor sins we're probably doing without
realizing that they're wrong, become part and parcel of our
life. You know, dare I say even some major sins, like, dare I say
that. So definitely some minor things that become part and parcel
of our life, we don't realize them, probably some major sins as
well. The only way to figure them out will probably be to, to
actually write everything down and then to introspect over them in
the in the evening.
In sha Allah we try this for three days, a lot of man to Scylla
