Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa
salatu salam ala say even more Selena what? Early he or software
he he married a mother
on the O'Meara earlier Abdullah meclizine Allahu Dena Hoonah for
what caught a Tara Allah Allah He Dino Hollis
call Uttara Illa Latina tabula rasa who are also mobila He will
also the you know whom Lilla Allah subhanho wa Taala says they have
not been ordered women only rule earlier with Allah homophilic seen
Allah Who Deen they have not been ordered except to worship Allah
subhana wa Tada. And to make
the practices of religion purely for the
purely for him
locally seem to do a class to purify something.
Allah says Allah Allah Allah had Deen will Hollis for Allah Subhan
know that for Allah subhanaw taala is only pure faith.
Meaning he doesn't accept anything but pure faith.
Allah says Illa Latina taboo wa sallahu wa salam O Allah he will
UCLA so Dina homely law, except the ones who make Toba and return
to Allah and those who reform and those who hold on firmly to the to
Allah subhana wa Tada and who make the deen and their faith purely
for him.
So the whole concept of this is to make the deen any aspect of the
deen that you do purely for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala Allah
subhanaw taala also says from uncanny Allah, Julie, Rob be
Fayard, Milan, Milan saleha, whether you should it could be a
bird that Europe be aha, this is speaking about a class in another
sense in the negative sense, in the sense that is describing what
a class is. So whoever hopes to meet Allah subhana wa Tada. Then
they should do good deeds, they should do pious deeds and
righteous deeds, and they should not ascribe or consigned
in their worship of the Lord, in the worship of the Lord, they
should not consign anybody else to Allah subhanaw taala they should
not ascribe any partners in their worship. So just looking at these
Quranic verses that seem to explain the concept of your class
and what Allah wants from us. What you understand from here is that
anything that you do as the deen needs to be for Allah subhanaw
taala it can't be for anybody else at the same time, or it can't be.
For somebody else, though. In the apparent sense of it, it seems to
be for Allah subhanaw taala so you can't do an action that is
supposed to be for Allah subhanho wa Taala and do it for somebody
else.
It's almost like you're stealing that action, which is supposed to
be for Allah subhanaw taala it has all the signs of being for ALLAH
SubhanA wa Tada. Like, for example, Salat, or donating, or
whatever the case is, right? People even think that is for
Allah subhanho wa Taala and expect that it should be for Allah
subhanaw taala. But inside, you've got a secret. You know, we have a
secret agreement with somebody else, or we're doing it for
somebody or somebody else in implicit agreement, in a sense.
And in the last of these verses, it showed us the Haqiqa, of having
no class, which is to
want to do it for somebody else to impart it to somebody else with
it.
This last verse, whoever wishes to meet his Lord, he should.
in a good state, everybody's going to meet there but who's willing to
meet the Lord who's hoping to meet their Lord in a good state? They
should do good deeds, and they should not ascribe any partners in
his worship. He should not ascribe any partners in his way in his
worship to Allah subhanaw taala this was revealed about somebody
who
worshipped Allah subhanaw taala worked for Allah subhanho wa Taala
but then love to be praised for it.
It's a very, very precarious situation. But such a common, such
a common pitfall. Such a common challenge.
The Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam not to further clarify, because he
because if last
what I'm trying to do
in this session is to understand a class from the texts. So we get a
Quranic and prophetic understanding of a class directly
and then to understand it through
the scholars thereafter.
Because if last is something that we
are trying to achieve in sha Allah, in our worship, otherwise
even the small amount of worship that we do or acts that we do for
Allah subhanaw taala go to waste and become redundant.
And so essentially, if we don't do this worship purely for the sake
of Allah subhanaw taala, then
it's completely wasted. So I think we need to really refresh our
understanding and get to the bottom of what if loss, really so
hopefully Allah subhanaw taala grants as well as that's, that's
the way I'm looking at this because it is really something
that people will struggle with. And that's why the mashallah they
say that a class is sometimes one of the most difficult things that
you will eventually achieve. And it's something that you have to
constantly attempt and constantly try for one day, then you will
fully inshAllah 100% become more or less inshallah Musab evening,
Musa Ibnu, Saturday relates from his father, who said that
once my father
thoughts, that he had some kind of special special merit, or special
virtue over some of the other companions of the Prophet
sallallahu, alayhi wasallam, that for some reason, or the other were
in lower status than him. Now, how would you count status in the
sahaba? Maybe he became Muslim before them. Maybe he used to sit
closer to the browser losail and more frequently, used to be with
the prophets of Allah, and while others weren't as much, you know,
they were Sahaba but they didn't come as much to the gatherings or
they didn't attend as much they were more busy with something or
whatever the case was, he just felt that he had some kind of
virtue. That's what he felt. So the Prophet sallallahu sallam said
to him
in nama Nasir Allahu isodiol. Actually, no, this was not his
sense of for Lila over people
have inferior connection, but rather inferior in the world. It
seems weaker people.
Poor people, more needy people.
So the Prophet sallallahu sallam said in the Manasa Allah who is
xojo Allah the Illuma bibliography her
what that word to him? What if lost to him, that Allah subhanho
wa Taala
assists this ummah by its
weak
by its weak ones.
And
they do ours and they floss.
So this OMA will get benefit in three ways. Communal benefits,
just general benefit for everybody. It's almost like saying
that because there are certain weak people, the government has
more schemes to help the people otherwise it just takes takes
takes.
Every time the government is cutting back and reducing
benefits. What stories do you hear you hear about the stories of that
poor woman in the flat,
the one with five kids or something like this, this is to
evoke emotion, so that the government thinks more from an
emotion side as opposed to just trying to balance the books. Now,
Allah subhanaw taala also helps people according to the weak
because weak people generally you have more
RAM and mercy for you have more compassion for them. And of course
they do as an a philosophy class is one really important thing that
comes about from this Allah's help comes to the Ummah because of a
class.
If we look around what may be the chaos, despite the fact that there
are so many massages, and there are so many more Islamic books
around and maybe
scholars around and access to things of this nature, so much
more learning is but still we don't get the assistance of Allah
subhanaw taala or we could get more assistance from Allah
subhanho wa taala. This may be the case that this is all hollow
that's taking place or not as fulfilling, as it should be. Ali
ignore the authority of Karim Allah Who says Lata Termoli little
Amel,
Lata them more utility level. Don't be too concerned about the
smallness of your deed. Don't be too concerned about the fact that
you have very less deeds, meaning don't keep beating yourself. Focus
on COBOL
now, of course, this has to be balanced in the sense that a
person
who only does a few deeds,
says I'm only focused on COBOL at the end of the day, is that a
reality? Or is that just a claim? Because sometimes shaytaan can
misguide us, right? Sometimes shaytaan can misguide us by making
us feel that I was COBOL is everything but we don't really get
COBOL is a slogan when these things become slogans. And these
thing becomes as claims
especially the beat to defend yourself against somebody else and
say, Oh, we don't have to do that much. Why are these guys all doing
that much for the main thing is COBOL always do you have COBOL?
What are you doing for COBOL? Because if a person is really
concerned about COBOL of his actions, you can see it in their
face. Generally speaking, there's just something about a person
who's humbled for the sake of Allah. They will not speak like
this, they will not diminish acts, they will respect what others are
doing, but for themselves, at least they will be focused on
COBOL
but they won't be diminishing other people in this regard.
So earlier, the Alon says that do not worry too much about the
paucity of your deeds focus on Qubool because the Prophet
sallallahu sallam said to Maldonado Bella, the Allah one a
holy Silla, I'm a huge Zeke. I mean, who will Khalil
do your purify your actions, and even a small amount will suffice
you them.
But the thing is that what one has to understand in all of this is
that you can't just learn a class like that. You can't just gain
Kabuli like that. You have to do a lot and try for a class in all of
them, and hope that in some class will be gained.
One of the biggest things that people learn by going to the Lulu
is effortless.
That's what one of the biggest things that they gain.
They learn how to do it for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala
because the reason why we do so much vicar are supposed to do so
mystical is to talk about Allah subhanaw taala take his name so
much, that then that permeates everything that becomes our focus.
Because if we're just for believing in Allah subhanho wa
taala, or rather practicing doing deeds for Allah subhanho wa Taala
because it's the thing to do, then we're not doing it for the sake of
Allah subhanaw taala so there's a there's a layer where a person
becomes immersed in Allah subhanaw taala that's what it is. So as a
practice, you could be going to the masjid, you could be doing
this, you could be doing that. But Allah is nowhere in the picture in
this. It's just a practice, a hollow practice. Because this may
be a nice thing to do, it suits your status quo. You get certain
benefits by this people respect you and consider you whatever. But
if inside in the
silence of your, you know, in your isolation when you're not with
other people, a person knows what his status is, or her status is.
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Oh, why don't we use
a Yeoman pm or the third Atherton? The first people to be questioned
on the Day of Judgment is a person who Allah subhanaw taala has given
her
Allah subhanaw taala says, What have you done with your knowledge?
Oh my lord, I used to stand at night. And at the two ends of the
day in worship, Allah subhanho wa Taala says you're a liar. The
Malayaka will say you're a liar. The angels will say you're a liar.
What you wanted was that you'll be seen before Fajr tahajjud time in
the masjid, after Aisha during non long noir fill. And you just
wanted to be seen
in this worship, and people would say on him. So that's already been
said. Anyway, people have said that you got lots of praise in
this world. So hulless that's it, you've got your reward. Another
person, Allah subhanaw taala gave a lot of wealth. Allah will say to
him, I gave you so much of my gifts. What did you do with it? He
said, Yara, I used to make sadaqa both night and day. I used to make
sadaqa with it at all times I used to make Solokha Allah says you're
a liar. The angels will say you're a liar. What you wanted was that
people say oh, he's such a
honorable, such a
generous person that's already been said, you've got your reward
for what you wanted. Another person fighting and being killed
in the path of Allah subhanaw taala Allah will say the same
thing to him. I commanded you to do jihad and
or rather he would say you commanded me to do jihad and I did
that until I was killed eventually as well. So I became a martyr.
I didn't even come back alive. So Allah will say your ally as well.
The angel will say the same thing. You want it to just be called the
brave one, the brave warrior. And that's already been called you've
already gone down in history as like, like that. Abu Huraira the
Allahu Anhu says, Then
Abu Huraira then says that the prophets of Allah so when he was
mentioning this hadith, he then he hit me on my, on my, on my leg and
he said, Yeah, about Herrera.
These are the first of the people that
Fire will be kindled by
when the narrator of this hadith came to my we are the Allahu Anhu.
And related this hadith to him
more aware of the Allahu Anhu then began to cry, you know? Very much
and then he said to Masada Allah, because Allah says, Man, can you
read the hero? Man? Can you read the higher dunya Xena Han ofany
Marmont, on FIFA.
He mentioned that verse, whoever wants this world, Allah will give
it to him. And that's exactly what this is. So although this hadith
has been mentioned many, many times, I just wanted to put it
into perspective here. That the whole point of this is the biggest
challenge to us in any worship that we do, or anything good that
we do is that because we're social creatures, and a lot of the stuff
we do will be known by society. And mashallah, they can raise a
person up and they can put a person down as well. We get caught
up in that. And that's what this hadith underscores.
It is tough. It is tough. That's why introspection every day is
very important.
Not just sometimes, because if you have introspection about what are
our deeds, really four, then we'll think about it.
Then we have we stand more chance to purify. Because if we don't,
and we think not much about it, then you could just get into a
stream of no EClass. And then you correct yourself after six months
or something like that after a year. But then Subhanallah you've
just lost all of this signal. And that's why constant introspection
is important. So that even if there is some pollution, we can
actually help ourselves and get better. And if loss has to be
learned, really, that's what the Roma a class has to be learned. It
doesn't come about just like that.
You you get it wrong, and you learn you get it wrong EULA. And
that's why you don't abandon deeds because of the threat of having no
a class in it.
It's mentioned
there's a very eye opening story. There's a worshipper, most likely
from the previous
one of the previous nations.
Can you just open the doors
it's related about this Arabic, this worshiper. So when we say RB
generally is a person who has given to a lot of worship doesn't
have as much oil necessarily. The whole focus is a lot of worship,
right?
Because worship has to be tempered with knowledge. That's how you can
avoid pitfalls and
innovation. Absence of a class, that that's why it's important.
So it's related that he used to worship Allah subhanho wa Taala
for a very, very long time. And once the people came to him a
group people came to him they said that you know, there's a nearby
there's a people who seem to be worshipping this tree. They don't
worship Allah anymore. They're worshiping the tree. They're doing
this kind of shirk. He got very angry, took his axe
put it on his shoulder went out to sort this out to cut this tree
down. Now it bleeds comes about in front of him. It bleeds comes
about in front of him
in the in the form of this old man in the form of this old man is old
man comes in front of him. When you're going around him McCullough
in a 2d, the Rahim Allah may Allah have mercy on you he even speaks
the lingo. shaytaan right. So that's why the shayateen they even
speak the lingo the that it makes it even more confusing. He can
take on these these different kind of
roles as such, where do you want to go? He said, I want to go and
cut this tree down. He thought they'll get some sympathy from
him.
Mama and there was a doctor, a Beretta Castilla cab, enough sick
water, ferrata the lady daddy is a What have you got to do with this
tree? Why does it concern you, you abandoned your worship,
you're occupying with yourself, you know your engagement with
yourself and you freed yourself from all of this to go for this
particular deed.
So he said, Well, this part of my worship to do this, it's also
worship to do this.
He said, I'm not going to let you do this. I'm not going to let you
cut it. That's what the old man said to him.
So he started fighting with him. So the abbot mashallah managed to
grab him,
throw him to the ground, set on his chest. And then this old man
that he believes says to him, let me go and let me go let me take
let me speak to you. Like he asked for
kind of peace. It says, Let me speak to you. Let me go so I can
speak to you. So you got off him?
And
if Lee said to him, Allah subhanaw taala has
resolved this from you. Allah doesn't need you
You to do this, this is not your responsibility. He hasn't made
this necessary on you. You don't have to go and cut trees. You have
to do amount of LaMancha in a particular way. But he's trying to
tell him that this is not followed on you to do this.
You didn't worship it. And for you, there's no other
responsibility
for Allah subhanaw taala aamby Allah has Zambia because that's
probably throne Bani Israel time when they had prophets in all
tribes and everywhere. Allah subhanho wa Taala has Gambia in
these different areas of the of the earth. If they if Allah
wanted, he would have sent one of them
and told them to cut it. So it's not your responsibility.
So the arbit said, LaBute Diliman Katya, I have to cut it is
necessary for me to cut it. So he didn't listen to him.
So again, he contested him. So the IRB fought with him and got on his
chest again.
And IBLEES became totally weakened in this regard. And then he said,
Okay, fine, he said,
let me say something final to you,
which will be more beneficial and better for us both.
So let me go. And let me speak about this is, uh, what is it? He
says, Let me go first, and then I'll tell you what it is. So he
let him go. So you can see, this arbiter is a nice guy, you know,
like, he's letting him go. He's not, you know, because he's
willing to listen to him.
He's willing to listen to him.
So then the police said, that you're a fucky, you're not a very
wealthy person. You're a poor person.
And you have no possessions. And in fact, you are like a burden on
people because they have to support you. They have to support
you.
Right.
I did want to mention that I used to see, you don't see that much
here. But in India, when I've been there a few times, I used to see
that every day without fail. There's a person who used to come
a fucky a lucky day. Krish. They they you know, and food. So he's
asking for some basic food. And people used to give him tradition.
It's not like, oh, he comes every day used to give him.
So I used to wonder, how's this style of how is this a routine of
life?
Why doesn't he get a job? Why doesn't he do something about
this? One is not you you're in need for a few days or something,
you're struggling. And then you've done something, but this guy is
got a monkey on his, you know, like, you can tell he's just a 40
year
resigned to this kind of life, probably has a little place to
stay or whatever. But he comes to get food every day and people give
it to him. So then I was reading him no Ijebu. And he said that
there have been some Olia of Allah, who have resigned to this
type of life,
resigned to this type of life where they had reasons for it to
focus on their worship completely and not engaged in anything. And
they had people around them that would help them and support them.
They may or may not be the sort of superior thing to do. Because when
things do stand on your own feet, and so on, and so forth, get
married, and so on and so forth. But there are some people who have
done this with fully class.
And people people have helped them out. So there are some people like
that. So what I'm what, now that I reflect over that, I'm thinking
that
because some people are you don't want to get on the wrong side of
certain people like this because having enmity
for the willy of Allah
is very dangerous, because then Allah declares war against you.
So
if you don't want to give
then you pleasantly refuse somebody. That's what the Quran
mentions anyway, you know, that's the way we do things. Unless you
know for sure somebody's imposter. Then you do amamagna Hanumangarh.
But otherwise, if you got a doubt or you can't give then you
pleasantly refuse them, give them a do our something and you're
pleasantly refused them. They shouldn't get on the wrong side of
them.
And that's why now I remember I remember in Mauritania when we
went and we were going to on the last day we're going to Senegal
and he stopped on the on the way and he said look at this Fakir and
he gave him something specifically and he was kind of dressed strange
and everything like that. So
Allahu Allah
there are different types of people and sometimes the these
earlier maybe become much zoob
Which means they're not in their senses. They've kind of been over
overcome. They've lost their kind of senses. Very few of them not
not majority of them. This is very few that happens on
Times, somebody just loses it
clear anyway, going back to this. So he says you're a hockey, you
are a burden upon people. And people have to assist you and help
you on how long you're gonna keep on doing this. You know, obviously
you have an intention that you should be able to spend on your
brother's as well, you should be able to help people as well don't
you have that in your mind
that you also look after your neighbors, and you can eat fully
for some times, and that you become independent from the
people. Now that's a nice proposition, obviously getting to
the core of his, his his state. So he said, Yes, of course.
Now remember, he doesn't know easy bliss is things is this feisty man
who's old man who thinks he can stop him. Right? But then he seems
to maybe have some respect for him by getting off and listening to
him as well. I'm just analyzing, right?
So then the person said, well leave this matter alone. Don't go
and cut this tree down. And it's my responsibility now that you
every night when you go to sleep, you will find two dinars by your
on your pillow when you go to sleep. So in the morning, when you
wake up, you'd have to dinars, not Durham's two gold pieces, that's a
lot of money. So in the morning, you can take them, spend them on
yourself on your family, you can give sadaqa with them, you can
help your neighbors out and everything like that, and that's
going to be more beneficial for them Muslimeen. And for yourself,
then going and cutting that tree, it's going to be more beneficial.
Because if you cut that tree, there's going to plant another one
there.
Whereas this is going to be more beneficial, you can do more with
it.
So they're not really going to be harmed by you cutting that tree
and your friends and people around you. They're not going to benefit
by that either. What would you do in that situation? What would we
do in that situation?
I'm still going to cut it.
Yes, that sounds kind of right.
What is the right answer? Here is the right answer here. I don't
know. I think it's more about your intention. Anyway. So the IRB
thought for a while and then he said
he thought to himself that disguise rights this old man is
right.
I'm not a prophet. So because remember the among the Bani
Israel, the OMA have to think differently in this case, because
there are other like the prophets of the windowsill or some said
that the aroma of this ummah, or like the prophets of the blue is
right, because the blue Israel, they had prophets just like we
have Allah ma, they were the amount of the they had some they
had ye but they would be so many when in each tribe. That's why you
had assistance like how do not Islam helping his brother Mousavi
Salam, he saw the Salah was a prophet at the same time as Yeah,
he is animals there. So you can see that they had a lot of
prophets at that time. We have a concept of a prophet only Rasul
Allah, Allah and because that's who we relate to. There's only one
prophet for all time, all places, you know, but he is the He's
unique in that regard. He is Rahmatullah the mean, or Salonika?
Allah sarila Coffee. In a cafe in us, you are sent for all people.
So that's a different kind of concept. So he thought, anyway, he
thought that yeah, this man seems to be telling the truth. It's not
really necessary for me to cut this tree, I'm not a prophet, and
neither has Allah commanded me to cut this tree. So then I That
means I'm not going to really be a sinner. If I don't cut it, I'm not
going to be guilty of not cutting it.
And then what he's mentioned, obviously, that's of great
benefit. That's of greater benefit. So he made a deal with
him, that that's what it will be. And he also swore an oath that he
will agree to this. He went back to his his retreat, his place of
worship, went to sleep. And as a stipulated in the morning, he
wakes up to two dinars. It takes them likewise the next day. And on
the third day, when he gets up, he doesn't find the dinar. So he gets
very angry now that he hasn't kept his part of the deal. The man
hasn't kept his part of the deal.
Takes it takes his axe again, on his shoulder. And
again, this Iblees comes in front of him in the form of this old
man's is where you're going now. I'm going to cut that tree.
I'm going to cut that tree.
Not that I'm going to sort you out. I'm going to cut that tree,
right,
is that you're a liar. You're a liar. You have no ability to cut
that tree. You're just claiming that there's no way you can cut
it. So now the RB grabbed him or tried to grab him to do exactly
what he did because he was easy put down
It was easy person to wrestle to the ground.
And this time, the Iblees this old man grabbed him and put him down
with no problem. It says for for either who are colors for Boehner
digitally,
you just like a little bird that you've captured, couldn't do
anything. So he believes came in, sat on his, this old man came and
sat on his chest. And he said, you either
drop this mission, or I'm going to start to you right now.
So this habit, he realized that he's got it because he can feel
that he's got no power over discipline, this guy has got some
amazing superpower, all of a sudden, like, I can't do anything
with him. Right? So he said, Okay, you've overcome me. Let me go. And
but I want you to tell me how you've gained this power over me.
How you become so strong and overpowered me. Because before I
used to overpower you, and now you're overpowering me. So he
said, the first time when you overpowered me your anger was for
the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. Your Nia was the akhira that was
your intention. So Allah subhanho wa Taala subjugated me,
for you. Allah gave you dominance over me, remember, this is the
shaytaan now speaking, right? This time your angle was for yourself.
You got personal, you made it personal. Right? And for the
dunya. So that's why I was able to overcome you.
What this story tells us Imam Ghazali mentioned the story and he
says that
this story just confirms what Allah says that Allah Ibadah
coming home and meclizine shaytaan you can have power over all people
except no shaytaan said this, I will have power over all people to
make them do whatever I want, except your servants who are
meclizine for you, who truly do things for you who have the
correct intention for you.
So what you understand from this is that a servant, a slave of
Allah cannot overcome the shaytaan except with a class.
A person needs your class to overcome the shaytaan if you have
a class shaytaan will have less effect on you.
Now you can understand why there's so many people that are so
deluded. When it comes to even Dini activities.
The less knowledge they have, the more deluded they will be, they
want to do something for the faith, all these people, you know,
all these feminists and so on. I mean, some of them have, they
think they have a class. They think they're doing it for the
right reason, but the knowledge is what kills them. Then you have
other people who have knowledge, but it's real, an absence of a
class, which kills them. Allahu Akbar.
That's why my rueful querque One of the great Olia who's buried in
in Baghdad, Kirk is in Baghdad. He used to hid himself and used to
say yeah, knifes Luisita Hello, see, have a class Oh knifes have a
class and you will escape from the shaytaan actually see the Hulusi
have a class you will be you will be saved from the shaytaan
Yaqoob and muck moku used to say that the Mukhlis is the one who
hides his deeds his good deeds just as he would hide his bad
deeds so he's not showing off he's doing it purely for the sake of
Allah subhanaw taala
one of the most difficult positions to be in as when you're
in the field of data
that were when you are lecturing teaching as an activist whatever
it may be as a scholar activist whatever it may be, that is the
most difficult because you are in so public sight
and then today the tools of the trade I like Facebook and Twitter
and things of this nature and fans and all that kind of stuff right
it's it's dangerous
that's why
people actually I'm your fan they say that to you.
I said it took me a while to even get used you know once you once
somebody says that you so much you get kind of get used to it
eventually that doesn't sound as unusual anymore. Right? But the
first time somebody says that what are you talking about? You know,
because you we equate fan and all that with some kind of star or
something. So that's happening now. It happened so much I mean, I
was in had a number of people like oh we hear lectures I'm a fan of
yours
There's a Egyptian doctor that wasn't me mashallah he I'm your
fan. I said what are you talking about? When is this so
uncomfortable? Now he's talking Yeah, that's nice, you know, and
that kind of thought will come because that's what Shavonne will
use to to spoil your action I'm not doing you know doing much
anyway and you know, then shape
don't want to spoil that much. It's a different world we live in.
I don't think anybody would go and say I'm your fan before I don't
think any of their animals dealt with that 20 years ago, I'm your
fan.
But it's we've moved into that kind of culture, or that kind of
culture has become mainstream and Muslims have taken that up
20 years ago 30 You think somebody would come to the signings I'm
your fan
Yeah, I guess they used to say things like my Jackie that help
say, you know, and mashallah you've benefited that they talk
about that but this fan thing, maybe they've got their sincere in
what they're saying. Fan means, you know, I listen to you I
benefit and all that, but I don't think they should use the word
fine.
It's just takes it on the wrong track is in the words are
powerful. Words. Also manipulate a person. So somebody might have a
class in the way you say something, but it's, it's
dangerous, Allah help us, Allah help us well, that's one of the
other machines may say to buy lemon law hot hot water on Wahida
law, you need to be able Allahu Taala glad tidings for the one
who, even what for what for whom even one step is correct and
valid. Like if he gets even one step it that's so powerful, that
you get glad tidings for such a step in which he He intends nobody
but ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada
Omar Abdullah Hata Radi Allahu Anhu says Rocktober Musa eluxury
Radi Allahu anhu, Abu Musab actually was one of his governors,
right, and one of the cities so he wrote to him and he said that
mahalo sat near to Kafka, hello, Donna bean, who have been a nurse,
whoever's near becomes pure, then Allah subhanho wa Taala will
suffice in between him and the people, Allah will suffice that
relationship. And that's why another one said that make sure
you near in your actions is pure. And a small amount of action will
then suffice you. That's the problem does a YouTuber suck, the
attorney says that to purify the knee on actions is more severe
than all the deeds that you will do. That is so difficult to get it
right.
It's almost like I'll give you an example of this. If you want to
produce something, it's very easy to produce something in huge
numbers, that is not very refined product.
You want to sell it in the pawn shops, right? So you could go to
China,
find any, you know, have a concept or whatever and just make the
product, but it falls apart.
You can do much better, you should be able to do with it. Now, if you
wanted to really refine a product, how long is that going to take?
You need a laboratory, you'll need experts, you'll need testing,
you'll need a lot of money, you'll need a lot of wealth, then you get
a harvest product, you get a purified product. But what's the
benefit of this product going to be as compared to that one pound
product? Can you see the difference? Right? So it's the
same kind of thing. Either we do lots of broken actions here. And
then we just doing it and enjoying the huge amount that's coming from
there. But people aren't happy Allah is not happy, you know. The
other option is do a refined action.
So although there is going to be a small amount of action, but you
can't do a small amount of action, by just doing it a bit, there's
going to be a lot of mind and as you know in our path. The whole
thing about this is not lots of vicar that you just show. It's
really about the state of the heart and woof kalbi because
that's what we do a vicar for is to gain kalbi and to gain walk of
kalbi sorry with woof Calbee with your the concert with the focus of
your heart and Allah subhanho wa Taala at all times that's what's
gonna benefit you. So may Allah subhanaw taala give us the Tofik
May Allah give us a Tofik May Allah give us the Tofik that
whatever we do Allah grant us the relentless in it. Allah grant us
to really fasten it. Because the way is fraught with all of these
difficulties, allotments alone because Salam devaglia legit it
