Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa
Salatu was Salam ala Sayyidina Muhammad wa ala early he was Safi
or Baraka was seldom at the Sleeman Kathira on Eli Yomi. Dean
Amma bad
are all there we learn him in a shape on your rajim Bismillah R.
Rahman Al Rahim low then it will be raw had to fear only to hate
Boon on to fear or shame in Allah Herbie he already
so today we're going to look at the fourth Jews of the Quran. The
fourth Jesus Quran is a continuation of Surah earlier
Imran which started in the previous Jews and then it goes on
and towards the end it
towards the end of the fourth juice sought Ali Imran completes
and then certainly SAP begins. So let us look at some of the main
themes in this juice, because it's difficult to complete the whole
juice today. In one go. But the first thing is the first verse,
which is verse 92, of Surah of early Imran. You cannot gain
piety. You cannot attain piety until you spend of that which you
love.
That's really, really important. It's a very prominent verse. And
one of the reasons for this is that if you want piety to Allah,
sincerity, piety righteousness to Allah, how do you prove that? It's
very easy to give away what you don't need. It's very easy. I'm
not using this anymore. Let me give this away.
But what happens if
there's something that you really love, and cherish and somebody
wants it? That's the test. I've had this test and I've probably
failed many times. But I was in Vienna. And we went to a masjid.
And I had a green shawl just like this one. And it was my favorite
one. I only had one green one. I have a number of shows. But that
green one was a very cherished one.
And that was a really, really strange program because I had to
literally speak in three languages. Because there was some
people who only understood English, some who only understood
Urdu and somehow knew understood Arabic. And in Vienna, they speak
I think German different languages like that. And I couldn't speak
that. So I could not speak the language that probably united
them. So I had to speak and literally Oh, to do Arabic and
English. There was a convert brother and he came in he said, I
really liked your short Where did you get it from? So I could tell
him it's from the Han Fellini in, in Egypt, in Cairo, famous famous
souk.
And I remember this verse, I said, I failed miserably many times. I
said this time and I took it off, and I gave it to him. Right. And I
felt really bad afterwards because I didn't have another one like
that it was my favorite shot. Right? But it but Allah subhanaw
taala gives back in abundance. A student of mine, he got me I don't
know 10 of these have different colors. And then after another
friend of mine, he brought me another five or six of them. So
now hamdulillah I'm sitting on and I've given out so many. I went to
the Balkans and gave out few to the different Imams down there. I
Allah will give you back it's a it's an example I'm giving you
that despite you know, I've failed a lot of times, but one once I
tried to do it, and Allah subhanaw taala gives back and amazing,
especially when it's something that you really cherish.
People have given Bigger, bigger things. So the shell is nothing.
So that's what it is, is to show piety that you're doing it for the
sake of Allah, why would you do something like that? Because
you're doing it out of the goodness of your heart, hopefully,
for this person, they need it. So you're giving it away for the sake
of Allah for the sake of assisting somebody. That's where it is
earlier the Allahu Anhu is giving his last coins away his last
Durham's away, and mashallah Allah gives him back. So, the altruism
to do something for the sake of somebody else, this is a very
cherished characteristic, everybody respects that. Everybody
respects that. And it's respected by Allah subhanaw taala because
that's what he's encouraging here as well. So, there after that,
there's some discussion about the obligation of Hajj where Allah
here Allah Nursey hate jewel Beatty Minister Torah, la his
Avila. This is the famous verse about the obligation of the
pilgrimage. Verse 97.
Before that, Allah subhanho wa Taala talks about the first house,
the Kaaba, the house of Allah being established in Makkah,
Mercado Rama, so all of that discussion is there. And then
after that, a lot of the discussion of the rest of the
surah is about the Alutiiq
Kitab the People of the Book, the Christians and the Jews, various
different follies of this mistakes of this deviances of there's
contradictions of this.
And certain warnings that don't follow them because they were a
previous nation. The new nation is Islam, the new OMA is Islam
because then we have the last prophet. So esala has Salam,
before he moves out he he Salam, they were the prophets of their
time. So anybody who followed them at that time were on the right
path were correct. But then when the next Prophet came, they had to
follow that new prophet and leave any leave the previous profit or
not leave the previous profit, but because the reason for the new
profit was a lot of changes have taken place in the previous
previous prophets message. So you couldn't continue on a incorrect
message, altered message. That's why the next one had to be taken.
So when Mohamed Salah loathsome came about 600 or so years, just
less than 600 years after isa alayhi salam,
that was the new message. That was the fresh message. That was the
correct and clear and rejuvenated, refreshed, new, revitalized
message, they had to accept that and in some people did, other
people did not. So there's this whole discussion that don't follow
the follies and the wrongs of the nations before you. Well, at
Hakuna, for example, verse 105, says one article Nicola Dnata, for
Roku, whatever you mean by the manager who will beat you not,
don't be like those people who split up differed with one
another. After the clear, clear, clear signs and clear things came
to them. And these people for them for these people, they will be a
punishment before that Allah subhanho wa Taala says that if you
do follow the way of some of the Al Kitab, they'll actually turn
you in the wrong direction. For example, verse 100, yeah, you're
Latina, we're going toe to toe for a minute Latina Otto kita. But you
do compare the Imani from caffine they'll turn you back into
disbelievers if you follow them. This is a major challenge because
when we live among different civilizations, there's always a
taken a given a take. There's also always influence. There's always
going to have that right. So we have to be careful how much we can
take. You can take the good, we avoid the bad that's a universal
rule wherever you go take the good avoid the bad, but the bad.
Sometimes the unhealthy is attractive. And that's what makes
it difficult. Allah reminds us it says what cave attic for rune. How
can you disbelieve what antem toddler Alikum is to Allah and the
verses of Allah constantly recited upon you. That actually shows that
if the ayat are not recited upon if you're not in touch with the
Quran, it's so easy to become misguided.
The Quran is what gives us sustenance and nourishment should
always read at least even a page of Quran a day and reflect over
it. Otherwise, it's so easy to become deviant.
Wi Fi can rasuluh among you is his messenger.
And there's a constant discussion about holding on to the true path
holding on to the rope. So you've got women yeah tossing Billa
* who de la sorority musta team, whoever relies on Allah,
they've been guided to the straight path then to versus the
down why Tassimo be Hamdulillahi gemmy Anguilla for Rocco hold on
to
where it does seem to be heavily la hegemony on whether the for
Rocco rely and hold on to the rope of Allah altogether and do not
separate one of the biggest calamities in the Muslim ummah,
that has led to our downfall in many instances and setbacks has
been differences has been conflicts within ourselves is the
easiest way to overcome any group, just create division between them
create a division between them. Because what happens when you
create division is that you get weaker your word, your efforts,
your energy, your wealth, your resources can't be together, it
gets distributed. It's a simple rule, divide and rule simple rule.
It's a very simple, Ron, we've fallen for that. And I guess other
nations have as well. You've fallen for that over and over and
over and over again. Sometimes you're strong. There's nothing
that can, you know, overcome you, but then you get divided you start
fighting with one another. I mean, this has been the case in Somalia
and Afghanistan has been like that. I mean, only you know, maybe
recently has it all come under one rule in and maybe that rule will
survive
if no more factions are created Subhanallah and like that, you got
all of the Middle East and all of these various different places.
Look at what happened in the Indian subcontinent you get
mashallah Bangladesh now in Pakistan, and then India, and
India's having problem with the Muslim
are having problems in India now.
Subhan Allah may Allah subhanho wa Taala make it easy, but this is
really important. That's why Allah subhanaw taala says, Remember
Allah has bounty upon you.
Allah has gift upon you that you were enemies before. This is
talking about the ocean hazards. For example, the two main tribes,
they were actually one tribe, they were the bunu kala tribe. If they
go back, they go to the blue kala tribe, actually one tribe, but
then they'd split up and what had become most one had become huzzah
ridge. And then after that, they had some conflicts. And for about
100 years, they were killing one another. So that Allah subhanaw
taala is reminding them of things like this, that you are enemies
and Allah subhanaw taala reconciled between your hearts.
And then you became brothers, with
the bounty of Allah. So that's a good example of where it can
happen when you do things for the right reason.
And you are on the edge
on the edge of *, but Allah subhanaw taala released you from
that brought you back from that. Now, one of the doors you can
actually read this door. Whenever you have a little issue with
somebody, I found this very useful. You know, when you have a
little misunderstanding with somebody, you're having a
discussion, it could be with your spouse, it could be with your
children, it could be with a friend, a neighbor, somebody else
had a little misunderstanding or something and you know, you have
these things happens, right? Somebody's having a bad day. Maybe
you're angry from before. Maybe you're frustrated and then
somebody says something and you say something back and you know
the hearts get a bit
a bit affected. Read Allahumma Elif Bina Kulu Bina Allahumma
Ursula Delta Bina found a very useful Allah, reconcile between
our hearts and resolve the affairs or reform the affairs are matters
between us and mashallah you get Baraka with that, the other person
and you, you know, you both the heart opens up and you're able to
reconcile that these doors are useful, they're really really
useful. So I found that very useful Allahu La Fenix, alumina,
Allah, Muslim, Davina, then there's a number of discussion,
there's a number of advices here about what not to do, and
especially about separation again, in you know, don't separate,
welcoming comma to either win or ill hideaway, and moreover, and
have an argument, this there's several discussions here about you
being the best of the ummah.
Because you commander good and prohibit the evil, showing mutual
responsibility, mutual goodness, and that is one of the most
important topics and methods of community remaining
on balance, because if everybody starts thinking, I'm a sinner, so
I can't say anything, there's people who actually think because
I'm a sinner, because I do one sin, I'm involved in x, y, and
Zed. I can't say anything to anyone.
They say that, if that was the case, then after the Prophet
Muhammad Sallallahu sallam, nobody would have been able to command
any good, because who's perfect after the Prophet salallahu Salam,
beyond the who's who's perfect, nobody. The only thing that I
think is bad is a hypocrisy. Where you do that thing, purposely you
enjoy doing it, you want to then you tell everybody not to do it.
That's hypocrisy. But if there's something you're struggling with,
you don't want to do it. But sometimes you fail and you do it.
But you want others against it as well, what's wrong with that, and
then you get caught failing once, or you're hypocrites, know, the
guy's not a hypocrite struggling, that's what he's doing is trying
to help others he's trying to help himself. A hypocrite is the one
who enjoys doing it, and who, you know, takes pleasure in doing so
it tells everybody else you shouldn't do it. You know, that's
a hypocrite. So the word labels you're hypocrites straightaway.
And people fear that I might be a hypocrite. That's why I don't want
to say anything to him. But the problem with that is that the
whole community goes down. Let's just say somebody starts a haram
business. Nobody says anything. Because you're, you want to keep
diplomatic. You want to keep civil, you want to be polite,
right? Politically Correct, or whatever the modern trend is,
right? So you don't say anything. Somebody else sees that they do
it. I know, it can oh, maybe that's a good idea. I do it as
well. They get engaged in doing the same thing. Everybody will be
doing it. Now. Can you see you've just lowered the community.
There's a sin that has crept in there. If somebody makes a noise
and nicely, of course, then you can have benefits.
Even if you can't stop the person, at least others say no, it's
wrong, at least the people who are conscious otherwise shaytaan just
misleads. That's why I'm a reminder of unnamed munkar so many
places Allah subhanaw taala speaks about that. Couldn't do higher or
math in the next 110 Couldn't do Hydra oma in Oak Ridge ugliness
that Morona will microbiota and oh nine in Ankara are taught me known
a bit Allah. Several discussions are it's there's a lot of social
discussion here. Of course, we don't have time to go into all of
this in detail.
But read these verses yourself. There's a lot of social discussion
over how to relate to one another. Then again, Allah subhanaw taala
discusses about the hood and a lot of contradictions and then what
punishments came to them and all the rest of the there's a
discussion about all of that. Then there's a discussion about not
taking bad friends.
There's a discussion about not taking bad friends yeah, you have
Lavina Ermanno Loretta, he do Bitcoin at a min Duni comme la
luna HomeHub. Ella, what do I need to cut better till about all Amina
for him, especially be careful about those people who are your
enemies, really, they only befriending you to misguide you,
to take you away to make you on their side, they don't really care
about you or your faith. They're just doing this, they're
supporting you. They may be providing free handouts, free
hospital treatment.
But it's not for any other reason, but to weaken you.
So be very careful about that. Be very careful about the kinds of
friends that you take as well.
There after that, there's a big discussion after that, on the
battle of art, the Battle of art was a really strange battle battle
of better the one that took place before that, that was won
outright. However, when it came to battle or better, or initially,
mashallah the Muslims
were victorious, and they managed to route the enemy. But in the
midst of that is that whole discussion and you know, the story
about the mounts where the archers had been left, and they thought
that the victory has been, has been attained. And they disobeyed
the Emir. The leader said, no, no, no, wait here, we still have to
protect this area. But because they saw the spoils of war or
whatever else attracted them, they decided to move from there have
been worried who's on the other side. At this time, chief
strategist, he sees this weakness, and then he attacks and then after
that, there's a massive chaos Hamdulillah, the Prophet salallahu
Alaihe Salam is taken to safety. And there's a whole discussion
about that. So that discussion, then Allah subhanho wa Taala
gives them a number of Allah subhanaw taala comforts them
causes tranquility, to descend upon them. And a number of lessons
are derived from this, you'd have to read this in detail. The number
a number of lessons spoken about here, Allah subhanaw taala
promises a number of things. For example, Allah subhanaw taala says
Bella in Spirou, what a Taku were to come infotrie him.
Allah subhanaw taala says that
you're going to have divine assistance. If you're patient and
you have taqwa and God fearing this. Allah will assist you with
5000 angels.
And there are many reports about the battles are higher than other
places where the angels were seen, assisting.
And even in the beginning of the 10th Jews, you'll see a discussion
about how Allah subhanho wa Taala when he wants you to win, he will
show your enemy to be very small in front of you, very minor. And
it's battles a lot about psychology, a lot about morale,
raising the morale raising the psychology, if you see your enemy
as weak and less in number,
then you feel much more strong and strengthened to to fight
otherwise, when you see a big army you that in it in on its own
weakens you. So that's what they do. They use strategies to make
themselves look bigger than they are in the mind that they show
sometimes just might build wins the war, because the other person
doesn't want to get destroyed ajeeb tensions that we go through
for these kinds of things. Now, in the midst of this discussion,
there's a discussion about some of the problems that are going to
weaken you. So in the third in earlier on there was a discussion
about interest, how it's so harmful again here in verse 130.
Yeah, you're living in Amman colori, but other Alpha model
alpha, don't consume interest.
In a compound way, don't consume interest over interest. Fear Allah
so that you can be successful and be aware of the fire that has been
prepared for the disbelievers and follow a obey Allah and His
messenger so that you can have mercy you can be given mercy was
Sadhguru Illa, Marathi, Marathi calm and hastened towards the
forgiveness of your this is for those who made a mistake. Maybe
they were involved in rebar transactions. Maybe they did buy
their house on interest. Maybe they did do something wrong. Well,
Allah is saying that doesn't mean that you're condemned forever.
That doesn't mean that now you must dispose of your house.
Right? If you've paid it off, or whatever the case you're out of
the interest now. Now
run to the forgiveness from your Lord and a paradise, whose breath
who's with is the heavens in the earth and that's been prepared for
the ones that you can still get in Taqwa afterwards. That's the
beauty of Islam you can make Toba and you can
gain you can gain taqwa and be close to Allah then after that
ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada mentions
a number of characteristics that believers should have, he praises
people with this characteristic. So this is from verse 133. To 138.
It says, are in that little mood talkin? That Paradise which has
been made for the righteous ones who are the righteous ones, you
can say okay, who is the one who is the one with Taqwa? Who are we
speaking about so Allah says, I'll tell you a Latina UniFi, hakuna
Vistara Eva Dora, those who spend both in prosperity and in
adversity.
Now it's might be a bit easier to spend in prosperity.
There's another fitna when you have too much when you have too
much sometimes, and you're very calculating shrewd businessman, I
was told that you're never gonna get money if somebody who's too
wealthy because their money is always accounted for. I'm going to
make that investment and soon as this one gets ready, I'm going to
make that investment so they don't have any spare money to give to
people because they just making it work for themselves. Sometimes
you're better off with somebody on a kind of a moderate salary that
they don't have these big aims and goals and they've not got it in
the system. Subhanallah right. So Allah is saying spend even in
that, although it should be easy for you to spend it and you got
abundance.
If giving 100 pound is not going to make a big dent. I mean, any
dentist told maybe, but you still feel difficult that you can give
like be honest like giving 100 pounds is that difficult for you?
Is it just your emotion that stopping you? Is it just this
inner greed in a miserliness that's stopping you? Is it not our
Quran? Allah you don't love Allah enough? That's why you're not
giving or you don't trust Allah enough that he's gonna give you
back or that you don't need the reward What is the reason it could
be any of these reasons and the other one is Fedora in difficulty
that's even more difficult. Because you don't have and you
still get believe me. If you want one amazing side business if you
want to earn extra income on the side, then go and do Uber
that's what people think. Right? I'm gonna do taxis I'm going to do
Uber it's so easy to jump on the Uber you know, you just sign up
and whenever as you wish, they think that's a good side business
and maybe it is a good decent side side business.
If you want a better side business, but this one request our
call is that you just give sadaqa
I guarantee you you will get your money back much more. And the
easiest way to do it is just put a direct debits every week or every
month starting Ramadan, maybe we'll get the reward the
multiplied rewards of Ramadan because you started in Ramadan,
Walla Walla,
right. Maybe you'll get the reward to your local Masjid Omar welfare
trust relief organizations, right? white thread Institute. What are
these put a direct debit to pound five pound 10 pound whatever it
will keep going every month inshallah you will see the
benefit. I'm not joking. You will see the bank Allah promises it
Allah promises it over and over again. Right. And that's a
wonderful side business. A wonderful side business. It's good
for your heart, good for your iman good for your wealth, good for
your prosperity.
Thereafter, Allah subhanaw taala says The next characteristic
will Calvino Rajeev. Some major debilitating one of the biggest
factors of problems in marriage is anger.
And you know what, there's a solution. There's a remedy, but
people don't take it because they don't think they've got an anger
problem. Right? It destroys marriages. It destroys
relationships.
It destroys communities. Go and get help. You can get anger
management courses need to control your anger. These are the people
Allah subhanaw taala praises those who control their anger. Without
Athena and the nurse mashallah open hearted they are willing to
forgive people, because people do wrong. You know, somebody is going
to say something, somebody is going to do something, somebody is
not going to do something you may forget and you get a bit upset.
Okay, that's fine. Just forgive.
Learn to forgive. You can't fight every battle. You can't keep every
single grudge. What a baggage on your mind. What a burden on
yourself a burden on your heart. Try to remain burden free. That's
how you get less stress. Forget things forgive things. That's how
you'll get less burden
People like they they remember everything as though Subhanallah
they're gonna have to give account for it. These are all the grudges
that I had
you know what sometimes I don't even remember. Like I just like so
out of it like I just try not to even remember it. Of course you do
it you can't be so silly that you get knocked from the same hole
twice. But you can't be so obsessive about getting everybody
back for everything. And then Allah subhanaw taala says Allah
who you humble Marcin, Allah loves the doers of good in any way
whatsoever do do is of good. And then when the DNA there for alpha
he Shelton and then another characteristic is the people who
when they do some kind of immoral thing
and chasing other animal and foster home or they oppress
themselves somehow they get a bit off track. They do something
wrong, Ramadan is finished. So they go on indulge somewhere or
with the villa. But then after that, the karula then after that
they remember ALLAH for Stella Fotolia don't obey Him and they
seek forgiveness from for their sin for their own. Allah is
telling us that we know you're going to do wrong we know you're
going to fail we know you're going to stumble and go off track for a
while maybe go and seek forgiveness because these are the
McKean eventually right? When a year flew by Illallah and in the
middle of La remains who is the one who can forgive sins except
Allah anyway? Like why don't you understand that Allah is the One
Who forgives sins there's nobody else who can do that. What am you
sit through Allah ma who this is the main thing and they are not
persistent on their wrongs what they're doing
look we can fail, but the wrong thing is to carry on failing
is to carry on doing that that's the bigger wrong it's wrong to
start and that can happen but then to carry on and stay down keep in
the mud is the bigger problem well, homie, Adam while they know.
And then Subhan Allah Allah then says, hola eager Jas, or whom
mouth era to Mirabai him virgin to JD mean, the * and her Rohan
Edie in FY, one in July, I mean, these are the people.
Their reward is forgiveness from the Lord, Allah is promising you
free standing on giving it to you, like come and take it. That's all
you have to do. I'm giving it to you. I'm here to give it to you.
And so you get forgiveness for your Lord. And based on that now,
he says you get Jannat gardens, beneath which rivers flow to be to
dwell in there forever. And what a wonderful reward a life saying for
those who do do the work. For those who do the water, wonderful
reward there after that.
There's a few other problems verse, verse 139, is very
important. Very important, especially when you're in an
oppressed state. And when you're persecuted, when you're going to
calamities and troubles, what are the he knew he has a new terminal
loner in school, meaning don't become feeble. Don't grieve, and
you will remain elevated and high. If you are true believers. This is
the difficulty you know when you get grief when you have trouble
when you have oppression. When you have difficulty.
People start thinking in wrong ways. I've just been told by a
scholar from India now there's Hindus doing a lot of problems,
the BJP, you're not the Hindus. I mean, the Hindus have been a very
good community for so long, lived with the Muslims for four
centuries. But it's the it's this ruling party, this extreme group,
they
what is doing is that for some people, in fact, this is what
happens for some people, for some Muslims. They're joining that same
group in certain areas, why? Well it could be for self protection.
Another one is for benefits, because remember, I said that they
will divide in order to to weaken people, they will divide your
group. So they giving you giving you
incentives to join and that there may be short lived benefits in
that you may get, they may give you a bit of money or they may
give you some other perks or whatever. But eventually the
purpose that agenda is very clear, is to actually purify the Indian
and India. They say everybody's originally Hindu and that's how
they should get back to being Hindu. That's what they say.
Right? Because I mean little do they understand that many of the
Muslims actually yes, many of them are converts from Hinduism, but
many of them actually have came because India had
huge,
large scale
correspondence trade. With many, many countries Yemen has had a
huge influence in the Indian subcontinent. Many
Muslims are there of a Yemeni background, for example, and other
Middle Eastern, you know, other areas as well. So that's that's
what's going on. And so but Allah subhanaw taala is promising that
look, stay believers. It's going to be difficult. Yeah, you will
have the nominal Spirou wasabi roo Warabi to water cola come to our
honeymoon right there after that. Allah subhanho wa Taala
talks in Surah Nisa Now certainly, sir. We don't have enough time for
that.
You guys can. What you can do is we have on Zoom academy.com We've
got 30 just covered. It's just one hour purchase that gives you a
synopsis of the whole here we're just doing in half an hour, which
you don't get covered in that one. It's a bit of more comprehensive
coverage not in not in 100% detail because in one hour, how much you
can cover but you can listen to that in your own time. And
mashallah many people have benefited from it in Ramadan. So
it's called the 30 Jews in 30 days in Overland sonza. macadam, you
can check it out. Surah Nisa has a lot of it has a lot of rules in
there a number of rules about
talks about your team, the orphans. Most of the rules
regarding orphans, many of the rules are they're here telling you
how to administrate their affairs. And can you take from their wealth
if you're spending on them, if you're looking after them, and
sponsoring them, taking care of them, fostering them rather. So
all of that discussion is there. Then there's the discussion about
how many wives a man is allowed to marry and being just the the
concept of justice, especially among the wives, that that
discussion is there thereafter that there's a discussion about
the major discussion then comes about distribution of your
inheritance. As you know whether Quran Allah says a chemo Salah
will add to Zika how much Zika to give is not mentioned the Quran,
right? Like exactly how much 2.5% That's not mentioned in the Quran.
But there's lots of repetition about gives the Kurds and if you
don't give zakat what happens, and there's discussion about pray and
established a prayer. But how many records of prayer what to read in
the prayer? That discussion is not clearly mentioned. But when it
comes to inheritance, Allah subhanaw taala lays it out very
clearly. And that is you'll see that from verse 11 onwards, it's
so clear, who gets what share when somebody dies, under what
circumstances in what condition then who gets it. Right. So that's
the laws of bequest I mentioned thereafter, that Allah subhanaw
taala has a discussion about
a discussion about punishment for homosexuals, right. A lot of
people think that homosexual discussion is only in the story of
Luca Alayhis Salam, but actually these two verses are discussing
that same thing, which is verse 15, and 16. That discussion is the
inverse 1516 of that thereafter, ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada lays out a
really important principle and criteria, which is that for whom
is sober, and repentance, repentance is for those who may do
a wrong deed in ignorance in unawareness, and then after that
very soon they make Toba and repent to Allah, Allah relents.
Allah subhanaw taala accepts them. Doba is not for the one who does a
bad deed. And then when it comes to his death, he says, Oh, now I
you know, when he sees that he's needy, he's gone, like literally
when the angel now he's saying I make it over No, not then anytime
before that is close enough anytime before the last moment is
close enough, but that's a risk. The closest is as soon as
possible, we should that should be our priority. The second thing we
should do as a as a safety net measure is that every so often we
should make a Tober for everything and then especially in Ramadan,
especially on lei little Bara especially when you go for ombre
Hajj, whatever and so on and so forth. And then after that Allah
subhanaw taala begins the discussion which then continues
into the fifth Jers about who you can marry and who you cannot marry
the for a man which women are allowed for them to marry which
relatives are not allowed to be married who are Muslims who are
non Muslims who are marriageable, who are not and other discussions
regarding that as well. discussion about marriage related issues
and that continues tomorrow. On to into the next Jews. May Allah
subhanho wa Taala grant us the Tofik to understand the Quran, be
elevated by the Quran, be illuminated by the Quran be
go go higher in paradise
With the Quran, to memorize the Quran to preserve the Quran to be
dignified by the Quran to be honored by the Quran, may Allah
subhanaw taala make the Quran what it's supposed to be for us, may
Allah allow us to adopt that, and benefit from that working with
that learner and Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen. 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 Dean 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 aka law here and Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
