Julia Julia, who are Manawatu
wa salatu salam ala. So you will have even Mustafa SallAllahu Taala
are they you are needy wasafi Oba was seldom at the Sleeman
cathedral Ilario Medina Amma bird
call Allah Who tomato with Tara wood Hello, janitor.
And tomorrow as we're talking about rune, Utah for are they whom
you say have been the hub for fee Hermitage, the hill enforce, what
are you?
What uncomfy ha ha they don't.
But you respected brothers and sisters
who likes to play computer games
would like to play computer games.
Unfortunately, we have
a lot of older people who like to play computer games nowadays as
well.
Right on their phones and their iPads and you know, sitting in a
train or wherever you are.
The thing about a computer game is that computer games are designed
by different people around the world, to challenge us, to
challenge people to get to a particular goal, to get to a
particular goal. And in between things, try to kill you and take
your life away. They give you a certain number of lives. You know,
generally you have more than one life in a game. Generally you have
more than one life in a game.
The thing about this world is that this is a massive game.
The ultimate goal is Jana, and the pleasure of Allah subhana wa Tada.
But in between, there's been many obstacles that have been placed
many challenges. And the difficulty is that there's only
one life. The difficulty is that there's only one life, you don't
get two or three lives, you only get that one chance, you can't
play the game again. And that's the difficulty of this. But the
thing is that the game is so worth playing. And it's so important
that we don't fail. It's so important that we overcome the
obstacles in our path that have been placed as a test for us in
this world.
Because Jannah is like something as Allah subhanaw taala says, it's
like something that no AI has ever seen. The beauty of no ear has
ever heard, the description or the beauty of a description of
anything like that, and neither has it ever, ever come onto
anybody's hearts. It's description. Now, let's take an
example of that. What's the best thing that you've ever seen in
your life, where's the best place that you've ever been? Sometimes
when you go to a place, and you really enjoy it, it's extremely
memorable. It's because of either the experience you have there, or
it's because of the beauty of the place. Imagine, for many people,
it's generally a hotel, a luxury hotel, maybe five or seven star
hotel, if you're lucky, at a beach, White Sands, nice, pleasant
water, no fear of shark infestation, nice beds with 700 to
1000 thread count sheets, a choice of pillows, and menu with 10
different pillows that you can order from extremely beautiful in
every sense of the world. That's what we're talking about. That for
many people is like the most amazing thing that they can have
and will be the most memorable, memorable thing that they've ever
had. Now, the problem is that the people who are serving you in
these places, they seem to be at your service they've just been
trained to do so they're being paid to do so they're not really
your service and willing to do your every bit. They're getting
paid. At the end of the day, they have to be concerned about going
back home and feeding their own children. They may have their own
griefs and worries and concerns. They may be depressed individuals.
They're just coming to the job. They're waiting on you, et cetera,
et cetera. Now if you take that same example, as the most
beautiful thing that you've ever encountered and experience Jana is
totally different. The hadith mentions very clearly what Jana is
made about Jade Chandra is made on first and foremost the word gender
actually means garden. The word Jana means garden. So what we
understand now is that we're not going to be cooped up inside. This
is going to be a lot of external there's going to be houses there.
There are
The province of Allah who is mentioned how to how to build
houses in Jannah. But Jana, as Allah subhanaw taala mentioned
sort of the Rockman as well women do the HEMA Jelena turn what even
half on Nakamura beach and so you've got Jana tan these are two
gardens lush green, and it has that as Allah subhanaw taala says
in the Quran, there are rivers that travel over these lands in
Jannah without any furrows, that's the most amazing thing. There is,
there is no trench for the river. The springs that run in paradise,
they run on the land without any furrows. And it's the most
beautiful scene that you will ever see. The as soon as you go there
what's mentioned that the last of the people to come out of
hellfire. Now imagine this right? Imagine this, the last of the
people to come out of hellfire. That means the biggest sinner who
has ever lived in this world, the person who has finally been
punished, and now purified and cleansed in the hellfire, Allah
subhanho wa Taala allows him to enter into Jannah. Do you know
what he gets? He gets 10 times the size of this world 10 times the
size of this world. That's the last person in paradise among all
the believers that have ever come and lived in this world, from all
religions, from all of the prophets times. So we're talking
about the last person has 10 times the amount. So can you imagine
what the people who are above him That means everybody else in
Jannah? Can you imagine what they're going to get? Now? How
does somebody get 10 times the amount of this world the size of
this world? Let's meet very amazing.
Where is Jana? Jana paradise, according to the strongest opinion
is on the seventh heaven. What the Hadith mentions that the Paradise
has 100 degrees 100 levels. And in between each two of these levels,
it's like between the way we see the earth and the heavens. So when
we go outside and we see the sky up there, that is how big the
first level is. And then you've got 100 levels like that. And then
he mentions that Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah subhanaw taala tells
us that first Allah Allah as the Prophet sallallahu mentioned,
first Allah had filled dose, ask Allah for filled dose filled dose
is the highest paradise filled dose is the highest paradise. And
what's most amazing is that there's one scholar whose name is
Allah Matahari. He relates a hadith, in which he says that the
Throne of Allah, as compared to the entire world,
or rather, the entire world, as compared to the Throne of Allah is
as is only as big as a ring thrown into a vast desert. So that ring
is the entire world's, the Throne of Allah is
the Throne of Allah is that vast desert. So can you imagine how
great, majestic and huge the Throne of Allah subhana wa Taala
is, and then the Hadith tells us that the Throne of Allah is the
roof of the highest Jannah and the highest paradise. So now you can
imagine how much real estate there is up there. Because if you
imagine it from this perspective, now this gets a bit academic. But
if the if the sky is the heavens are all around us, whether you be
in Australia, southern hemisphere or not northern hemisphere, then
let's, let's imagine that the heavens are in concentric circles.
So the first one is a circle. The second heaven is another circle
that is outside of that. The third heaven is another circle beyond
that, and then the fourth and the fifth and the sixth and the
seventh, can you imagine how much space they'd be on the seventh
heaven. If the last person out of hellfire into paradise is going to
get an agenda that is equivalent to 10 times the size of this
world, then there's a lot of real estate up there. If the Throne of
Allah subhana wa, tada is like the desert compared to this entire
world. So there's a lot of space there. But we need to win the
game. We need to win. And we need to deal with these pitfalls and
challenges of life in this world to be able to get there. The other
thing about Jana is that
I'm going to quote to you what one of the great scholars of the past
have said, this is a pinata in love. Why can paradise not be in
this world? Why can you not even imagine paradise or anything like
paradise in this world? The whole reason is this. This is what he
says. He says he made the hereafter an abode to reward his
believing
servants, he made the hereafter an abode to reward his believing
servants, only because this world only because this world cannot
contain what he wishes to bestow on them. And because there were
the people who are believers, their worth is too high, to reward
them in a world that is temporary and without permanence.
This world is temporary, it's without permanence. For Allah,
somebody's like Allah, the sovereign of all sovereigns, the
King of kings, when he wants to give a gift to somebody, it has to
be befitting of his status. This world is too limited and
constrained. This world is too limited and constrained to for
Allah subhanho wa taala. To give a real gift is like some really,
really wealthy individual comes and tells you if I need to come
and give you a dinner but I can't take you to any hotel, I need to
take you to my home, I need to take you to my palace. That's when
I can give you the royal dinner. Allah subhanahu wa Tada. He says
this world, Allah subhanho wa Taala considers this world just
the test place, a place literally to limited to constraint to give
us the reward that he wants. But that's a challenge that we need to
take on and inshallah get into Jana, the first and foremost, the
first thing you have to realize, is that Allah subhana wa Tada has
granted will grant gender to anybody who has the Cunnamulla
ilaha illAllah. After that, that gives you that gives you a piece
of land in Jannah that gives you a garden in Jannah. We have to build
it up, we have to make sure that we don't do anything in this world
that will stop us from getting into this paradise stop us from
getting into this paradise and having to be purified first in
hellfire in the infernal in the blazing heat. That is what we need
to avoid. And the way to avoid that is to try to please Allah
subhana wa Taala so that he tells us come right in, even without
questioning, or that if he does question us, our good deeds
outweigh our bad deeds.
These servants in paradise what is mentioned that when a person goes
into paradise now this is from a man's perspective, right? Because
this is what the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, he said
that when a man goes into Paradise, and he sees his wife,
now this could be his wife from the from the earth, or it could be
one of the who reads of Jana. But the point what I'm trying to make,
the point that I'm trying to make is that when he sees her for the
first time, you will so enjoy the beauty that he will just stand
there looking at the beauty for 14
a huge amount of time, he'll just sit there and look at the beauty
for this many this 40 for 14 years, he will just look for 40
years, he will just look at that. That's all he will do. So can you
imagine the beauty of this many people, they bring the Hadith in
which it mentions that women are going to be
there's going to be many women in the Hellfire because of the Hadith
that prophets Allah has mentioned. One very interesting thing is that
there's another Hadith isolated by Imam Bukhari and Muslim in which
he mentioned that every man will have two wives in Jannah. That
means that women will be two thirds of Jannah.
That if there's to be to women of this world, to every man of this
world in gender, then that means there's going to be two thirds of
women that makes it a majority of women. That's number one. And
number two,
let's take a description of one of these places. The hadith of Abu
Huraira the Allahu Anhu. You mentioned that we asked ya rasool
Allah, O Prophet of Allah, O Messenger of Allah,
Akbar Allah and His agenda tell us about paradise inform us about
paradise. So the prophets of Allah is some said in this description
he said, a brick of gold, then a brick of silver, and the mortar in
between to hold it together is musk. The motor to hold it
together is musk.
Beautiful musk, extremely fragrant musk, and the pebbles or
surroundings. They are pearls and rubies so you're walking on this
stuff 1000s nobody even thinks of stealing them today you see a
precious stone people protected people protected with major
amounts of security. There is just thrown on the ground you're
walking over this stuff
Zafferano smell of saffron, and these beautiful smells like this,
who and then on the Prophet sallallahu sallam said whoever
enters it. He will never die. Clothing will never become worn.
They
will be no urination. In there'll be no urination in paradise, no
defecation in paradise. So they asked What about all these great
food that you eat? What about all the good food that you eat in
paradise that's promised, He said the Prophet sallallahu sallam said
that it will just be belching, it will just be belching or
perspiration. Like, like musk. This is how this is how the food
will become digested. Subhanallah The other thing you have to
realize, as a comparison, this world has many duties, mashallah
you go you see Victoria Falls, you see all of these other great, nice
beautiful places. I was in Switzerland Subhanallah, you know,
really nice scenery, mountains, the Alps.
Allah subhanaw taala created this world many 1000 years ago. He has
never updated this world. Today, this world after having so many
billions of human beings and animals and other creatures,
living on it, using it, and making it their home and for their entire
life and then disappearing. This world has never been updated by
Allah, this world is still 1.0 There is no 2.0 there is no update
to it. Now, despite that fact, this world is still so beautiful.
It still has its beauty and its utility and its benefits, and we
still enjoy ourselves in this world. Can you imagine Jana? Which
Allah subhanahu wa Tada is updating every day, he's made it
for a special reward. And then to make it better, he updates it
every day. He enhances it every day, he adores it every day, every
day, it's been embellished. So can you imagine what Jana will be
like, if that's what's happening every day and day in and day out?
Rajiv Subhanallah what the other mentioned based on these a hadith
is that generally in this world,
generally in this world, when you see something, or when you eat
something that you're really dying to eat, because it's Subhanallah,
you know, like your favorite dish, or favorite restaurant or
something like that, eventually, you eat a lot of it, you get tired
of it, you don't want another you know, somebody gives you another
plate and you say, No, I'm tired of this. But in general, it will
be different. What happens in Jannah, is that you take a taste
of that fruits, or whatever it is that you're being fed, the second
taste is going to be different from the first, the third taste,
the third bite, the third morsel is going to be better than the
second. And that is endless, and limitless, that is endless and
limitless, it will continue that every taste you take. The same is
with your novel. The same is with your gaze and sight. You look at
somebody, your your your spouse, and they will be beautiful, you
turn away and you look at them again. And there's suddenly more
beautiful than before in this world, you can never imagine that
somebody can continue to become more and more and more beautiful
each time. But because paradise and likewise Hellfire is eternal
without end, it will go into the far reaches of post eternity. That
is why that is why everything in it will be of that nature, it will
be perpetual. So new things, new things and for Allah subhanho wa
taala. That's not difficult at all. But the way to achieve that
is to be successful in this game is to be successful in this one
life that we've been given. The good thing about it is that it's a
very long life. We do fall we do fall down and we do have these
problems. But the main thing is that we want to satisfy Allah
subhanho wa Taala as much as possible. Thus, just to give you
an idea. These are a few things that the prophets of Allah who are
using them as mentioned, by which we can inhibit our agenda and our
paradise. Firstly, the prophets of Allah some said Hadith narrated by
Muslim whoever is regular on 12 records. There's 12 Extra because
sunnah etc 12 records of Salah 12 records of prayer, right? In a
day, Allah will give him a house in paradise. Number two, whoever
builds a house for God's whoever builds a masjid even as big as a
nest which means you contribute one break 10 pounds or whatever it
may be. Allah will give you a house in paradise for that small
amount number three, whoever says when they're in the market now
this is going to be a tough one too for you. But whoever says the
following dua which I'm sure somebody will write down for you
inshallah La ilaha IL Allah Allahu Allahu la sharika the whole corner
would handle your your meat. Well, who will hate you in La Jolla mood
via the hill hail. Well, who are the conditions in Kadeem? Allah
subhanho wa Taala gives them a huge amount of reward removes a
huge amount of sins and gives them a house in Jannah
What it means is, there is no God except Allah alone. Allah says,
There is no God there is there is no, there is no God except Allah
alone. He has no partner. He is the sovereign, for him his old
praise, he is the one who gives life, He gives death. He is the
life living one, he then never dies, in his hand is all goodness
in his hand is all goodness and he has ability to do to do all
things. Whoever reads that in a marketplace when they go shopping,
Allah, Allah will give them this great reward.
Finally, it mentions In another Hadith that whoever performs for
records of Doha prayer, that means, after sunrise prayer, they
will be given a place in Jannah. And whoever they will be given a
place in paradise for accounts of force for for records of Salah
prayer, yes. And finally, whoever recites could who I had, which is
sort of lost the chapter of economics in the Quran, Kulu Allah
Who, that chapter of the Quran, whoever recites it
10 times they will be given a palace in general. So let's avoid
the Haram and the pitfalls. Let us try to increase and make let us
try to increase our good deeds. And may Allah subhanaw taala grant
this great Jana, where the servants will never tire where
they will be fully at our disposal, and where everything
will be more beautiful than anything that we've ever seen. May
Allah subhanaw taala grant us Jana and may Allah subhanho wa Taala
make it beautiful for all of us. Last story. There was an old woman
who came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and she said
that when I go to Jana, when I go to Paradise, and the prophets of
Allah said, No, you will not. So she began to cry. She began to cry
and she wept. So then
what the Prophet sallallahu sallam said, You will not go as an old
woman, you will go young. The description of everybody in
Paradise is that they will all be perfect. Everybody regardless of
what disability they have in this world, in paradise, everybody will
be perfect. Everybody will be 60 cubits the size of Adam and the
Prophet Adam. Everybody will be about 33 years of age, prime age,
everybody will have the power of 100 worldly men at least. And this
is everybody regardless of how they are in this world. Allah
gives us the ability to deal with our challenges, whatever those
challenges are in this world, and grant us Jana working with that
