Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim
Al Hamdulillah Hamdulillah. He was Salatu was Salam ala Sayidina
Muhammad wider earlier, he was such a big Marine,
a Mulberry.
Last week, we began to speak about the actual day of judgment and the
resurrection. So we spoke before that about
the cover
the borders of the place where everybody goes to before they
arise on the Day of Judgment.
Then we also spoke about how Allah subhanaw taala will cause
everybody to regrow than the souls will be put back into each human
being each person, and then they will be driven to their place of
gathering. And then we spoke about the different forms that people
will be in the different shapes and forms based on the sins that
people have created have committed before. Before we carry on with
that discussion,
I just want to
just very briefly speak about some of the other job of visiting the
graveyard. Because it's something that many of us do, because we've
got people there, and others should do it. Even if you don't
have anybody there.
There's a purpose is not just to visit your own. One of the reasons
why it's beneficial to visit the graveyard is because it reminds
you of the Hereafter it's a place where you can think and reflect
that is understood from the hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam
where he said, I used to prohibit you from going to the graveyards.
Initially, it was prohibited to go to the graveyards, or maybe it's
to take away this Shirky beliefs, these policies
polytheistic beliefs which people used to hold before, and wanted to
just put a complete stop to it, graves, because a lot of the idols
that they used to worship, were actually people that were famous,
pious, remember, you know, memorable people who eventually
they created an idol phone began to worship the idol as though it
represented the person, the particular individual. So based on
that,
it's
wanted to completely cut that out. But after people had strengthened
in their faith, and had understood, the clear distinction
between right and wrong, the prophets, Allah has made it very
clear. He said, I used to forbid you from visiting graves.
But now you should visit them.
They rent the one, they
rent the one able to do without the things of the world and remind
one of the hereafter. They remind you of the hereafter. So whether
you've got somebody buried there or not, will still remind you, if
you go there and reflect over it. If you've got somebody there, I
guess it's a bigger reminder, because you knew that person, you
knew them in life. Now you know them, that they're not here
anymore. When you don't know anybody. It seems a bit more
abstract. But everybody knows somebody that stayed. So that's
the benefit of that.
Mr. Larson also said no man visits the grave of his brother, and sits
by it, but that the dead man finds solace in this, having his spirit
restored to him until the visitor departs. This is most likely a
weak Hadith. But it shows that the main there's other Hadith as well
that show that the deceased in their grave, do benefit when a
person comes and recite something.
A dead person in his grave is never more comforted than when
those that he loved in the world, pay him a visit. Do some reading
for him.
How do you what are you supposed to do when you enter the
graveyard? It starts from as soon as you enter. Now talking about
our graveyard, it's always best to drive in a bit slowly and put your
radio or anything else off that you have. Because the graveyard,
the Tottenham one at least has a pathway in between many graves. So
it's a good idea to have some other to go in there slowly.
Because as you know, we're driving in and then to pack up, make sure
you have everything off. And then as soon as you come out. You say a
Salam or Aleikum. Assalamu Alikum Allah Daraa call me mumineen
Yeah, or Assalamu alaykum Dara Call Me Minion same thing means
peace be upon you, O place of believers.
So As salam o Alikum, Allah Daraa call me mumineen Rodden agilone
water come to our dune we're in insha Allah who become law school
and to learn SLF when Abdullah calm tuber us Hola Hola. Hola,
como la Alfia Hola.
Hi, I'm Phil Anna, welcome. This is an extended version of the DUA.
A basic version is salam o aleikum? Yeah. Allah Daraa call me
Momineen we're in in sha Allah who become la Hoon, Allah Helena, what
a Kamala Alfia which basically means, peace be upon you. salam Wa
alaykum yeah Hala. Dara call me Momineen Oh inhabit inhibitors of
this place of believers.
And then
we will.
We're in a in sha Allah, Allah willing, we will rejoin you. We
will join you soon.
Let's Allah Halina, we ask Allah subhanho wa Taala for us, what a
come and for you Afia wellbeing.
And a translation of this extended version is Peace be upon your
place of believers. We are grant granted respite until tomorrow so
yes, we're still out here being granted a respite still being
given a chance that which you are promised has already come to you.
And will Allah willing rejoin you know we will Allah willing, join
you? You are You are our predecessors, self, you, our self.
You've gone beyond us before us. And we are your followers. I ask
Allah to give us a new well being of Allah forgive us and then
it is recommended Mr. Ham, to visit that cemetery on Thursday
night, Friday, Friday night until sunrise Monday, for it is said,
supported by various generations that the spirits of the dead
returns to their graves at those times. This is all from Sheikh
Abdullah, we'll hit that by the way.
The visitor when it goes in the other what should you do, should
ask for forgiveness and mercy for them. Pray to Allah subhanho wa
taala, to be merciful and to forgive them. Read whatever Quran
one can and then make over the reward to them.
Practically very simple. As you're walking in, if you know your
scene, then start reading a scene from when you're driving towards
the Cobra Stan.
So by the time you got there, you've got to your scene that's
just been recited. Then when you get there you you can have that
transferred, say Allah subhanaw taala give the reward of this to
my mother, my father, whoever is whoever is there, or everybody.
If you've got a few people, you can give it to all unless you want
to give it to like your mother, your father than the others. You
go there and you read maybe at least fattier. So that is very
powerful. So read at least the fattier on every every one,
meaning everyone at least that you know, and then do something for
everybody else.
Because we would like it that everybody that visits the
graveyard after we've died that they also pray for us, give us at
least a bit of a share in what they read, rather than just our
relatives.
One person a person should remember while doing this, that
they will also soon have the same ending. Learn the lessons to be
drawn from their condition so they should be reflection. That's a
place of reflection, no doubt about it.
When a person who is the graves of his parents, relatives or anyone
else who has rights over him, must sit with unhurried serenity, pray
for them and ask abundantly for forgiveness. It's not like a place
you just go quickly read something and get out you could do that from
home. But there's a risk reflection that that is
recommended there.
When he visits the graves of righteous people he should pray in
abundance. Make dua as well for the Aza answered at such places.
There will be people out there who will tell you that that's
absolutely false, that they're dead, there's nothing that you can
do now, of course they did no doubt about it. But these were
beloved people to Allah subhanaw taala at least in the eyes of
everybody else.
They passed away, they passed away and Iman, they benefit a lot of
people, they clearly have a space a place, they have a place of
status among by Allah subhanho wa taala. So, there should be some
Baraka just like this Barak of Rasul, the same people who will
prohibit you from doing this will say that is prohibited for you to
intend to go to visit the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is
grave.
That when you go to Madina, Munawwara you're going to the
masjid, that's what they will tell you your intention is the masjid
not the grave. We say it's the grave and the Masjid. But the
grave is the masjid is only great because of the grave. That place
the city itself was Yathrib full of diseases until Muhammad
Sallallahu it was removed and made to offer it to go.
This has been the understanding of traditionally throughout the
centuries of the majority of scholars.
Very few have disagreed with
This normally the misunderstanding is based on a hadith that led to
shut the Rehan Illa Illa Allah the misogyny, that you should not like
make preparation with your means of conveyance and animals to go
except to three misogyny.
They take that to mean everything,
massage massagin macabre and everything else. That means it
would be impermissible to go to Eastfield wall
or Westfield?
It probably is,
right, but it would be impermissible to go anywhere if
you take this hadith which says it is not permitted, or rather the
literal meaning of this, at least is that rehearsal rehearsal
basically means you know, getting your animal together to prepare to
go somewhere, should not be prepared except to three masajid.
Now, if you relate that the way we understand it, is that there is no
point for you to leave your local masjid and go to some other place
that looks bigger or looks better or has more money spent on it and
you think you're going to get more reward.
Your reward is in your local Masjid because that's what you
are. And that's what that's what that Masjid is for. So you're not
going to get more reward if you go to Regent's Park or Islam you
know, a White Chapel or wherever else you want to go. For the local
people is different.
Of course, if
they apply this hadith to everything,
so they say it's okay to go to Madina, Munawwara Medina, the
masjid
and to Jerusalem. Must Luxor and mocha mocha Rama, but not to any
other place.
Where do you get the how do you put the Prophet salallahu Salam
graving, that you put that in there, then it means you can go
even to your local graveyard?
Because you're applying this hadith in a very general way,
which is completely wrong. But that's a different story. The main
thing here is that, for example, it's related that
it's related about we don't need to go into that because we're not
in Baghdad or in these other places with Baghdad is is a city
which has
numerous major righteous pious people buried there.
It has so rewarded the very day it has she Abdulkadir Gilani buried
there. It has Imam Abu Hanifa buried there. It's got some major
people buried there some of the major Sufis it will vary in
Baghdad. But that is an adjective city.
If only it can be purified and cleaned, and insha Allah may Allah
make it stable.
As for rubbing tombs, and kissing them and all of these things,
these are distasteful practices, which are to be completely
discouraged. There's no physic nothing physical, you're gonna get
from there like touching it and all the rest of it. There are some
places in India where I've had the, you know, the opportunity to
go. And number one, you have to go around in a particular way. If you
try to go against it, they shout at you. So you have to kind of do
a like a tawaf type of thing. Then there's a man who stands there
with a brush, like this long brush, and then he brushes the
grave and then he brushes you with it. So you're getting some baraka
from the grave, then outside, you've got these people sitting
down and you can buy dollars from them. So you can pay some money
and they will make a special dua on this particular night. And your
dollars will be accepted they say so you pay for that you give a
donation, it's a donation. Then from outside, you can buy these
flower these flowers and things which you have to buy these other
blankets with these inscriptions on it, then you can go in and put
it over and then basically they just put it right back for the
next customer to buy.
So it's kind of a really big money making money making things that
happen.
May Allah subhanho wa Taala protect us from that. So as for
robbing tombs kissing them these are distasteful practices, which
are to be discouraged even worse is the customer circling around
them. Also another thing I'm looking at in the graveyard is
that people are starting to kind of pay some attention to the
graveyard which is a good thing hamdulillah before used to be some
overgrown place which you had to get bags in winter to put over
your shoes to go in there and people didn't want to go there
because it messed up your car afterwards and hamdulillah Valerie
would this committee and all those who have put some effort behind it
to get it to where it is it's a lot more pleasant to go there now.
hamdulillah one thing we're noticing is that people are kind
of marking their graves, they're paying attention. It just the
thing is that
there's a there's
So much that we can do.
But we must be careful that it doesn't become an object of
celebration, an object of adornment, eventually, that's the
way it becomes, we need to be careful with that. It's okay to
demarcate the borders, as people have done
it, so okay to do that much. But then
to kind of
put things over it, make that more solid, maybe then start using some
Marvel to do one, you know, overdo the other person. And to make us a
bit better than the others or, or to copy many of the others that
are there from before the these things are prohibited to put
things over it, it needs to be the soil needs to remain the domain,
you know, just about what we could do is put a stone, you know,
decent stone, and maybe a modification around it, and that
that that should be it. Right? So we need to watch that it doesn't
get people because once some people do so much, then it's like
we should do some more.
Now let us go back to the day of judgment, where people are now
moving.
They're being told to move forward, and they are in different
states. And there's a lot of a lot of misery on that day for those
people.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, people will be
gathered in a shiny white land resembling pure flower
where there will be signs for nobody. Pure flower, meaning it's
just this vast expanse of white. Totally even.
There's no signs of where to go. There's no familiar roads, there
are no roads, just complete, plain expanse. He also said mankind will
be gathered on a single plane. Each will hear the summoner and
the eyesight will be penetrating you'll be able to see exactly or
Bossa Roca Yama, Hadid
ma Husa eco Shaheed, so to call sword cough. This is the standing
place on the day of rising we're all creatures will be assembled.
Qian min devils shaytaan, cattle, wild beasts and predators,
everybody there, lots of space, there'll be lots of space, then
the angels upon whom BPS shall descend to them at Allah's
command, surround them. This is this is where it gets, because
everybody's there, they're already worried because they've just had
an arduous journey. They're already in these different forms,
there's already a torment, and then suddenly surrounding them
rank upon rank will be the angels coming in different majestic
forms.
And the criminals and the unjust will find now No place to flee, if
they even thought that they could flee somewhere before that. But as
the angels begin to surround rank after rank, a massive army, how
many angels are there? Allah knows best. But it mentions and we spoke
about the the,
the the size of the heavens. It says in a hadith that there is not
a place of a hand span that is empty, where there's no angel
there glorifying Allah subhanaw taala. And is that's a huge amount
of
area up there. It says that 70,000 angels go around the Kaaba of the
angels on the seventh heaven every day, they only get a chance once
the next day, it's another group. They don't get another chance. So
now you can understand from that, how many angels they must be so to
have ranks upon ranks to deal with this,
that in itself, the sheer majesty the sheer force of that will be so
penetrating.
As Allah says, Yamaha Ginni will ins in his stutter atom and 10 Fu
mean Qatar is summer word he will order the fun voodoo Latin for
Luna Ellerbee Sultan for a year. Europe bukhoma To cut ribbon. You
also do other ecommerce shoe other Minnaar one who has on Fela,
tantos Iran for be a Europe be chromatica theBalm are company of
jinn and men. If you have power to penetrate all regions of the
heavens and earth then do so you will never penetrate them, save
with our sanction. Which is it of the favors of your Lord that you
deny. They will be sent against you flames of fire and brass and
you will not escape. Since Surah Rahman.
This place of gathering will become crowded as we can
understand it will become crowded, there will be jostling and turmoil
and the sun will draw near until it is one mile above their heads.
This is what the Hadith said one mile, the narrator of
This hadith remark that he did not know what it meant. If this if
this meant a mile in distance as we know it, the mile as we know it
is a bit different. It's a bit smaller than the Sharpie mile, the
mile mentioned in the narration is a bit longer. But either way, it's
the same thing very similar.
Or if it meals, if it means the mile, meaning the furthest that a
person can see, Allah knows best, then the people will be afflicted
by great hardship, such heat and thirst that only Allah knows of.
So it's not even a description of saying, you will be so hungry, you
will be so thirsty, you will be so hot like
there is not even an example given there's not even a parallel only
as Allah knows. That is a very effective, it that's just really,
really powerful. They will perspire until their sweat
penetrates the earth to a depth of several arms length.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, the sun will come
near the earth on the day of rising and the people will sweat.
There will be some who sweat will reach up to their heels.
Some of them, it will reach the middle of their legs, some of them
their knees, some to their thighs, some to their waists, some to
their mouths. Here he raised his hand to his mouth, and some will
be completely covered by their sweat old Gemelli. German, as he
said, totally harnessed with it. And he put his hand hand above his
head. This will be according to the sins a person has committed.
He also said May Allah bless him and give him peace, a man will be
under the shade of his charity on the Day of Judgment, charity is
very powerful, especially for that day. Charity sadaqa is very
powerful. So even if we're in the habit of giving big Salah cot here
and there, it should be a regular amount of sadaqa that we give,
even though we may feel the masjid may not need it. It's not for that
it's for our own reason. So even if you give a pound a week
minimum.
And he said seven kinds of people will be shaded by Allah under his
shade on the day when no shade will exist, save his
a just leader,
a young man who grew up in the worship of Allah,
especially a youth who, in youth worshipped Allah read Quran
made it salats had some concern for them Subhanallah that's very
difficult for youth when they exploring that's the time of
bursting energy exploration. So person has been able to do that.
And it's very difficult for young people to do that, unless the
parents guide them. This is majorly a parent's guidance. But
if the youth are listening, then know that this is for yourself.
This is very effective.
As you can see, with all of these seven, they are things which are
not the norm because they're difficult. That's why the rewards
are so great. Another one is
a man whose heart was attached to the masjid. Even though he's
outside he's thinking about when next going to the masjid two men
who had love for each other in for Allah. They came together and
separated for that reason, not for any ulterior motive. A man who
went a woman of Rankin beauty attempted to seduce him said I
fear Allah.
A man who conceal his charity so that his left hand did not know
what his right hand spent.
That's not for charity. And a man who remembered Allah when alone,
when alone, he remembered Allah and then whose eyes overflowed
with tears based on that reflection when he remembered
Allah. This, of course applies to women in the same way as well.
The meaning of his shade here is the shade of his throne. And then
he said, Whoever reprieves an insolvent man,
or agrees to reduce his debt will be shaded by Allah under his
shade. That's another so it is the seven mentioned in the one Hadith,
then these are other narrations that talk about others. He's not
just seven, there are others as well. This one is that somebody
owes you money. It's difficult. He's got no money still hasn't got
it. Give him more time.
There's a person mentions in a hadith that he will be on the Day
of Judgment, his punishment be lightened, it'd be overlooked.
Why? Because he used to have a business. People used to owe him
money, but he was very good about giving them more time or reducing
the debt as mentioned here.
He also said whoever wishes to behold the day of rising let him
recite if you want to reflect over the day of judgment and the event
Then read the summer on shapcott. Sorry, read it the Shem so cool.
We're not
either shamsur Cool, we're not read that. Read that read that
Surah with the meaning, and that should make you reflect.
When mankind standing at this place is prolonged, and their
hardship becomes overwhelming, they will debate among themselves
to decide whom they should go to who may intercede on their behalf.
The sun is very close. Everybody is perspiring, except those in the
shade is lots of people like that. And they want something to happen.
This place is becoming unbearable. Now. That's why the kuffaar will
say this is so unbearable, get us out of here, even if you send us
to *. Little do they understand that * is supposed to be worse
than this. So eventually, some of them they will start to decide we
need to do something about this. Who shall we go to? So they will
go to the mighty Salaam? And he in turn will say I can't do this go
to new holiday Salaam. He will say no, I've also got some concerns
today. Go to Ibrahim Allison. And this is a brief version of the
Hadith. They will go to Ibrahim Hassan will say I also have some
concerns. I did so and so I also have concerns go to Musa alayhis
salam. He says I also have some concerns go to a Saudi Salam. He
said he said I won't say I've got concerns but he will say I know
the person for this go to Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
When they come to Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
and Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam will say, I am the one for
this. This is what I'm going to do.
And
he then goes to his Lord asks his permission, then falls down in
frustration in front of him and he begins to praise Him and Allah
subhanaw taala then will beat him to raise his head and tells him to
intercede
for he has been granted intercession now
the Hadith regarding this are well known and they sound and there's
many versions This is a very brief version of this.
It is said that when we make a van before after Adan when we make the
DUA, Allah Who murabaha the deputy term or Salado, Karima T Mohamed
El Wartsila. While for the ILA while McCarville mahmudullah, the
writer,
we're praying for Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to be
given a special place on the Day of Judgment. That's what we're
saying, Oh Allah, the Lord of the great words and so on. The
Mohammed give Mohammed Al vasila. There was sila, while for Gila,
while Palma Carmel, Muhammad and Nima Carmel, Muhammad is this
special position on the day of judgment by which he will be able
to intercede when nobody else will be able to intercede the
praiseworthy station
al MACOM al Muhammad, which the first and the last of mankind envy
him,
as Allah says, it may be that your Lord will raise you to a
praiseworthy station as a booker a
as a rabuka.
A.
What's the verse?
I saw a year but Africa Rob Booker merkaba Muhammad, yeah, but I
think it says as the ethical rabuka mahkamah Maha Mudra as
mentioned in the Quran as well, that it is,
it may be that your Lord will raise you to a praiseworthy
station.
It has come down to us from the Prophet salallahu alayhi salam,
that Muslim children who die before puberty will be permitted
to give their parents to drink Subhanallah
one of the worst things that can happen to you is that your
children die. Because all those poor parents in in Gaza, for
example, and in other places as in other places, where these Israelis
just came in and killed their children in front of them.
It happens that's just torture, innocent children, but they have a
special place in the hereafter.
Every state of a Muslim is good.
If only others could understand us, regardless of what Yes, there
is some difficulty there is some patience. But even that patience
is good for you afterwards. whatever state you're in as a
professor of law, some said
that what a good state it is for the believer if he's got some
difficulty make supper is good for him. And he's happy prosperity and
he makes thanks sugar. That's good for him as well. You can get
reward in both ways. So it has come down to us that Muslim
children who die before puberty will be permitted to give their
parents to drink. These innocent children Allah subhanaw taala will
allow them to confine their parents. They will move
through the crowd, searching for them, meaning searching for their
parents at a time when thirst will be at its utmost, once a righteous
man who had Resolved never to marry.
So in a dream that he was standing, he was at the standing
place on the day of rising, thirsty beyond description.
And there were children with water bowls in their hands.
They would give it to some people and not to others. He asked them
to let him drink. But they answered, we only give water to
our parents. In the morning, when he woke up, he asked to be
married.
In the hope that Allah might bestow upon him a child, and that
child would die would know that child would die, he would if the
child would count that if the child would die, he would be given
to drink in the awful situation. He didn't hope that the child
died, but said at least I've got better chance of something like
that happening to me. We ask Allah for his kindness and for well
being through His grace. I mean, so all those women who have had
mid late term miscarriages, the row is inside this, they would
qualify for this. distress and terror then will increase to such
an extent on that day that the disbelievers will say, oh, Lord
release us. Even if it be to the fire. Can you imagine the
desperation the fire is supposed to be a lot worse. Well, Matakohe
was
gonna shed the lab that they'd been punished while in the grave
but now on the when the day of judgment occurs, and Pharaoh into
a worse fire, a worse punishment. When the messenger of allah
sallallahu alayhi wa salam intercedes with his Lord.
After that initial intercession, asking for judgment to be passed
and the people to be released, he will issue his command Allah will
issue his command to the angels who carry the arch the tremendous
throne, the Hamilton Arash the carriers of the throne will come
about. Now this is going to be an awesome sight. A frightening sight
for many people will be awesome, it'll be cause for worry for
everybody.
He will issue his command to the angels who carry the tremendous
throne, they will carry the throne of the all merciful to the
standing place, the garden the agenda is then brought to the
right of the throne
and the fire to the left and mankind will be brought before
Allah to be judged. Some will be subjected to no reckoning at all.
And these are the foremost the cyber goon they'll be go they'll
go straight paradise no reckoning go straight. May Allah make us of
them was so before the Serbia cone Allah Ecole moko Rabban these are
the close ones
feature nothing name.
Some will then be gently call to account. They'll have some account
but gently call to account
and others harshly.
And anyone who will be harshly questions will inevitably be
tormented.
Some will be given their books in their right hands, some in their
left and some behind their backs.
Allah the Exalted
shall ask the messengers about their communication of the message
to the nation they will be asked did you convey the message that
you are responsible for?
As Allah says in the Quran, then we shall question those to whom
our message was sent. Then the people will be asked the omens
will be asked.
And we shall question the messengers
with knowledge shall we speak to them we know exactly what it is
and never will be absent.
Some faces will become white would you when
Allah speaks about a number of places would you who Yeoman even
now zero? Would you hear me them Bursera
faces will give off the feeling of the entire body. That's the
expressive part of our body. Some faces will become white and some
will grow black.
On the Day when some faces will be whitened and others blackened
is what that will do will be up that will do. As for those whose
faces have blackened, it will be said unto them. Did you disbelieve
after your professional faith,
professional faith for disbelievers where's the
profession of faith?
They were never believers his thought was always the profession
of faith.
Exactly the profession of faith is the covenant that they took when
Allah extracted the progeny of other bodies
gonna be for anybody who was created at some other Marty's
salon. And he said, Aren't I your Lord? And everybody recognizes
that of course you are. But we made to forget that in this world,
because it's a test this world is, but in the hereafter that will be
reminded to us so it will be fresh in our mind, and also our actions
will be fresh in our mind. And if there's a contradiction between
the two, we're gonna feel doomed. So may Allah subhanho wa Taala
protect us. That's an evil ending that's really evil. May Allah
protect us from that?
Did you disbelieve after your professional faith, then taste the
punishment of having disbelieved and as for those whose faces have
been whitened, they dwell in the Mercy of Allah forevermore.
All people will be made to stand before Allah, to be questioned
about their deeds. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
There is none among you who will not be spoken to directly by
Allah. With no interpreter in between. Allah will talk directly
with everybody.
You should look to the right and see nothing
but that which you had sent ahead,
you will see your deeds you look right, you can see exactly what
you've sent.
You look to the left and see nothing but that which you had
sent ahead.
Before you before you in front of you, you will see nothing but the
fire.
So protect yourself from the fire. Even if it be with as little as
half a date in charity. That's the end of that hadith the Prophet
Allah Moses said, the feet of a man will not move from the
standing place he just won't be able to budge until he is
questioned about four things,
his youth and how he spent it, may Allah forgive us
his life and how he used it.
May Allah give us the ability to spend the rest of our life in some
useful way, his wealth and how he earned it, and how he spent it.
And in one version, his actions and what they were
now, to add to this whole misery as though not everything is not
exposed already. This is also the time when people's tongues, hands,
feet and skins
shall bear witness as to what they did.
It's been suggested that the skin is here referred to the *
in particular,
as Allah says in the Quran, on the day when their tongues, their
hands, and their feet testify against them. Yo Mata shadow ally
him Al sinner to whom what ad or Judo Bhima can we I'm alone will
call really julu the hem Lima Shaheed Tamara Yuna call you and
talkin Allah hula de and Takako Leshy and thus, this day, we will
see a lot their mouths and their hands will speak to us and they
feed bear witness as to what they used to earn. And they say to
their skins, why do you testify against us? They say Allah has
given a speech today, even he who gives speech to all things.
Similarly, if that is not enough, each person each place on earth
shall testify as to what they had done on it.
You may even to help the to
be hon Baca wahala The Day when the earth will divulge its
secrets.
Give its news, because Allah subhanho wa Taala has inspired it
to do so. Whether good or evil. Allah says that day it will relate
its news and news it will relate accurate.
The messenger of allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Do you know
what is what it's what its news is here.
He will testify against each of Allah slaves man or woman and
relate what they had done. He will say he did such and such a thing.
On such and such a day and the Hadith continues. Allah, Allah
Subhan Allah the Prophet sallallahu sallam said As reported
by Abdullah Muhammad Ali, Allah Han, Allah will draw his believing
slave nearer to him.
Until he shelters him,
Allah knows best exactly how that is.
Then he will ask him about his sins. He's also got some sins,
he'll ask him about his sins, and He will keep confessing to one
after the other. Did you do this? And of course I did. Yes, I did.
Yes, I did. Yes, I did. Yes, I did.
Until when he feels that he is totally lost. All of these sins.
He
knows I'm confessing, he thinks he's lost. He will say, Allah will
say, I conceal them from you, I can seal them for you in the world
people didn't find out about them and I shall forgive you for them
today.
This is clearly if the good deeds overcome the bad deeds somehow, if
the bad deeds are dominant, then forget it.
There's still a chance but if the good deeds dominate, then we've
got many chances. Inshallah, that's the hope that we have.
This prolonged and hard situation may be easier for the devout
believer, he may be shortened. This is the this is the good
points. For the believers, it may be shortened to the extent that it
becomes only as long as the time that it takes to perform a solid,
a fourth prayer, or in another version, the time between the noon
and afternoon prayer, Lord and answer prayer, as has been
affirmed in a hadith, one of the most distressing situations for
mankind, the standing place shall be
everybody standing there, they've got all of this dread and
everything. But when you actually see the Hellfire coming,
that's just going to make it even worse.
And how will it come?
It shall be when Allah orders the fire to be brought, led by 70,000
holders, each holder like pull 70,000 of them to bring it. Each
one of those 70,000 holders will be held by 70,000 angels, the
70,000 times 70,000
Angels we're speaking about
a huge, incredible number. When it comes near to mankind and they
hear it's breathing. It's raus and other terrifying and hideous
noises. They will fall on their knees. Even the prophets will
become fearful
and the innocent will be afraid.
To the extent that each of the noble messengers may Allah have
peace on them will say, Oh Lord knifes enough see myself myself, I
beseech you for no one else only for myself.
The exception shall be the Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam
who will keep saying my nation, my nation. We are so lucky to be in
his nation. Can you imagine
that he's remembering us when other prophets are remembering
themselves. We don't say that in a diminishing returns.
Both here extreme now you can understand. You know when you hear
that, We are extremely fortunate to be in the ummah of this
messenger sallallahu alayhi wasallam. But this is one of the
prophets. This is one of the reasons for that, that he's going
to remember us even at that time.
It has been related that he will advance towards the fire
and drive it back from mankind.
It has been ordered to obey Him,
and will allow the angels holding its holthus to take it to the left
of the throne.
The Reckoning is recorded. Every creature is given its do even the
cattle. So on that day, even though the cattle will eventually
be turned to dust, all animals will be eventually turned to dust.
But there will be a reckoning even for them.
Just to prove justice, establish all forms of justice.
It has been said that the homeless goat shall exact its retribution
from the horned one. Then when the animals have all received their
juice from each other, Allah will say to them become dust at that
the disbelievers will say Would that I would just
then the Muslim dependents will be erected the one for weighing the
deeds
as Allah the Exalted a said
and we set a just balance for the day of rising so that no soul is
wronged in anything.
Even if it be that the weight of a mustard seed we don't we're not
going to have even the weight of a mustard seed. Amount of wrong be
allowed on that day.
We bring it forth and sufficient are we as recognized we know how
to reckon the weighing that day is true. While was no Yoma Ethan will
help Furman sakoda tomasino And for those who scales are heavy,
then they are the muffler home. They are the triumphant ones. And
for those who scales or light
Hafetz mowers you know, then those
they
Are those who have lost their souls because of the wrong they
used to do to our revelations?
All the good and bad deeds will all be weighed.
Those people whose good ways outweigh the bad ones, they will
be the victors and the fortunate ones.
While some whose evil way evil ones outweigh the good, have lost
them failed.
Those who are equal the good deeds are equal to the evil deeds, they
will be said that they should stand on the earth, between the
garden and the fire. Jana and Jahannam, after which, through
Allah's mercy, it will be delayed but eventually through Allah's
mercy, they will also go into the garden.
The translation is God and He is because genuine means garden.
Paradise is a
fantastical word. But
garden is what it is Jana Janeane to garden and the which rivers
will flow. That's what it is, with buildings inside.
It is related, that there will be an angel standing at the balance,
who when the balance is heavy,
will announce so and so son of so and so has a heavy balance,
he will be in such a bliss, as will never be followed by
hardship.
And when the balance is light, this angel will proclaim so and so
son of so and so has a light balance, he will suffer and never
know happiness again.
Then the bridge, the Spirit shall be thrown across *.
Everybody has to go over it. We're immune come Illawarra has Allah
says there's none of you but you have to go through the Hellfire
somehow, meaning across it, you can't go around you have to go
across it. How will that happen? Then the bridge will be brought,
it will be thrown across the Hellfire mankind will be ordered
to cross it.
It is related that it will be sharper than a sword
narrower than a hair.
And that people will have to cross it with their deeds. So it's not a
physical crossing as such, based on your physical prowess,
that you can do tightrope walking and be able to do it. No, it's
great. It's sharper than a razor. You can't do it. It's not a
physical feat to achieve that you can practice for. It's the deeds
that will carry you over. So basically you need a vehicle to
get us over. And that vehicle is the deeds. So now this makes
sense.
The fact that when you normally hear that it will be sharper than
a sword
narrower than a hare. You think how do you what's the purpose of
this? Because those are just the tracks for our deeds to go over.
It's not it was never supposed to be a physical walkover
and that people will have to cross it with the deeds, those whose
faith is more perfect, who are quicker in obedience.
Come to solid sit inside the masjid not lounge around and not
lounge around outside and sit outside May Allah protects us May
Allah protect us.
They shall cross as swiftly as lightning. They will fast in this
world towards the obedience and worship. Here you go to Jana as
well like that. Others will be like the wind, as though the wind
is slow. Those would be really fast. The first ones, then the
ones like the wind. Others like birds, others like the best of
horses.
Others like writers, others like strong men burdened by their
deeds. Others will go on hands and knees. Some will be scorched by
the fire and still get across and yet others will tumble into it.
The first two cross will be the prophets.
May Allah bless them and grant them peace. Each of them saying oh
Lord save save. The very first to cross will be Muhammad sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam while the first nation to cross will also be his
nation.
trustworthiness look at these two things, trustworthiness and
kinship bonds.
This means your blood relationships, not friendships on
Facebook, or blood, your auntie your uncle, those who speak in
another language maybe you don't like to visit them.
I'm talking to the young kids who are listening. I don't want to go
and visit. I don't know that language and speak English. You
know, you know those
aunties smother you maybe you go there they're all over you they're
trying to you know give you this then you don't like that No, no no
you know Subhanallah lb kinship, not friendship, friendship is good
but kinship This is seriously kinship will be sent and
trustworthiness will be sent. So persons Amana trustworthiness,
these two characteristics will be sent to stand by the bridge, it
will be moist and slippery, will have hooks like the thorns on the
sat down Bush, which will take whoever they had ordered to take.
And these two things will make it easy for them. May Allah subhanaw
taala make it easy for us? May Allah subhanho wa Taala make our
deeds in this world conducive for a quick, speedy
process? That is without reckoning
into genital for those because we can't deal with any of this.
Already what we've done May Allah subhanaw taala conceal it. May
Allah subhanaw taala as he's concealed it until now, may he
conceal it, forgive it, erase it, eliminate it, and do not take us
to account even for a small amount, then the believers will
reach the hold. Now we're focusing a bit on the believers but we'll

The point of a lecture is to encourage people to act to get
further an inspiration, and encouragement, persuasion. The
next step is to actually start learning seriously, to read books
to take on a subject of Islam and to understand all the subjects of
Islam at least at the basic level, so that we can become more aware
of what our deen wants from us. And that's why we started Rayyan
courses so that you can actually take organize lectures on demand
whenever you have free time, especially for example, the
Islamic essentials course that we have on there, the Islamic
essentials certificate, which you take 20 Short modules, and at the
end of that inshallah you will have gotten the basics of most of
the most important topics in Islam and you'll feel a lot more
confident. You don't have to leave lectures behind you can continue
to live, you know, to listen to lectures, but you need to have
this more sustained study as well as local law here and Salam
aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
