Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim

00:00:02 --> 00:00:06

Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala Murthy

00:00:06 --> 00:00:10

Rahmatullah de la isla. Meanwhile, he will be here Baraka was seldom

00:00:10 --> 00:00:11

at the Sleeman get Iran

00:00:13 --> 00:00:16

in Iommi, Deen, Amma Bharat, so these three really important

00:00:16 --> 00:00:17

advice that

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

remember Huseby is giving.

00:00:21 --> 00:00:27

We read this briefly last time was Sunday NACA Bill aqidah. was soon

00:00:27 --> 00:00:31

the NACA Bill exida. Which means protect your preserve your deen

00:00:32 --> 00:00:36

protect your deen by adherence by following someone by emulating

00:00:36 --> 00:00:37

someone.

00:00:38 --> 00:00:42

Because our deen is all based on that. That's why we've constantly

00:00:42 --> 00:00:47

had messages throughout. For the message of Allah, the message has

00:00:47 --> 00:00:50

never been thrown down to the people and said, Go and interpret

00:00:50 --> 00:00:51

it in your own ways.

00:00:54 --> 00:00:57

When people are left to interpret things, they run into a lot of

00:00:57 --> 00:01:01

inconsistencies. For example, currently, there's a consistent an

00:01:01 --> 00:01:06

inconsistency that we're seeing, you've got all of these major

00:01:06 --> 00:01:10

companies and organizations that are removing women from the,

00:01:12 --> 00:01:13

from the

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

exhibitions and, and presentations and so on, because

00:01:20 --> 00:01:25

they're saying that it doesn't fit with the modern, modern style and

00:01:25 --> 00:01:28

modern trends. Apparently, it's actually modern to remove women in

00:01:29 --> 00:01:33

skimpy outfits in revealing clothing with that * appeal

00:01:33 --> 00:01:34

oozing from them.

00:01:36 --> 00:01:39

So you've got that going on. It's like, finally somebody's woken up,

00:01:39 --> 00:01:45

but it had to have huge harassment cases for that to actually come to

00:01:45 --> 00:01:50

the fore. But then at the same time, you've got another group of

00:01:50 --> 00:01:53

people who are doing the very opposite,

00:01:54 --> 00:01:59

who are becoming old fashioned by trying to remove hijabs that are

00:01:59 --> 00:02:04

voluntarily worn by young children, young girls purely in

00:02:04 --> 00:02:05

emulation of

00:02:06 --> 00:02:10

their mother, their sister, or their aunties, or whatever.

00:02:12 --> 00:02:14

They may be somebody who's a bit

00:02:16 --> 00:02:20

extreme, who may be like one in a million people or one in several

00:02:20 --> 00:02:24

1000 people who may force even young girls to do that. But

00:02:24 --> 00:02:28

otherwise, it's just not an obligation at all. Right? I don't

00:02:28 --> 00:02:31

think there's any, any item or any scholar that would tell you that,

00:02:32 --> 00:02:33

but then you've got

00:02:34 --> 00:02:39

school head teachers, you've got the Ofsted now coming into that,

00:02:39 --> 00:02:43

whereas their job is something totally different. To this, I say,

00:02:43 --> 00:02:47

No, you can remove. So there's the big industry is trying to

00:02:48 --> 00:02:53

literally veil women, protect them from being commodities. And you've

00:02:53 --> 00:02:55

got these others who are trying to use the same arguments for

00:02:55 --> 00:03:00

something else. So that's the way the world will work. That's why I

00:03:00 --> 00:03:04

just hate debates, because it just depends on what the trend is at

00:03:04 --> 00:03:07

the time. That's what really matters. That's what's going to

00:03:07 --> 00:03:10

win generally. Otherwise, you're going to start a lot of people may

00:03:10 --> 00:03:13

not want to speak out, because they're just going to seem

00:03:16 --> 00:03:21

incorrect, even though the reality is something different. So that's

00:03:21 --> 00:03:25

why we've constantly had to follow role models. And if the role

00:03:25 --> 00:03:29

models mess up, then it's a big problem, which unfortunately can

00:03:29 --> 00:03:32

happen as well after the Prophet sallallahu sallam, and the sahaba.

00:03:33 --> 00:03:36

It's only up to the Sahaba, you can say whoever you follow from

00:03:36 --> 00:03:40

among the Sahaba Hamdulillah, you will be guided. But when it comes

00:03:40 --> 00:03:44

beyond the Sahaba, then one has to be very careful. But that's all

00:03:44 --> 00:03:46

we've got going for us. We're going to have to follow somebody.

00:03:47 --> 00:03:50

So we try our best but at the same time we ask Allah subhanaw taala

00:03:50 --> 00:03:55

for guidance, that Allah give me the right person to to help me

00:03:55 --> 00:03:58

guide me right and that's where there's a famous da Allahu Medina.

00:03:58 --> 00:04:02

Oh, Allah guide us. We had the * and guide through us. And

00:04:02 --> 00:04:04

where's your honor? Who that eliminated?

00:04:05 --> 00:04:10

Makers guides for guides for those who are guided. So if we're asking

00:04:10 --> 00:04:14

for to be guides for those who are guided, that we must become guided

00:04:14 --> 00:04:18

ourselves first. So the door is actually very eloquent, it's very

00:04:18 --> 00:04:21

far reaching. We are asking for something more than we would have

00:04:21 --> 00:04:24

thought we wanted. That Allah is saying, Don't just be rightly

00:04:24 --> 00:04:29

guided people, but also be guides of others. The forces forces for

00:04:29 --> 00:04:35

change, positive change. That's what's important. So it's quite

00:04:35 --> 00:04:37

amazing. This door is actually quite amazing. You should be part

00:04:37 --> 00:04:43

of our doors. So protect your deen by emulation by following

00:04:43 --> 00:04:46

something by following it. Don't come up with new ideas that don't

00:04:46 --> 00:04:47

work.

00:04:48 --> 00:04:51

That just seems savvy that seem crazy.

00:04:53 --> 00:04:54

quirky.

00:04:56 --> 00:04:59

And then he says waffle Amanda can be taller below him but don't

00:05:00 --> 00:05:03

As follow somebody, you need to learn knowledge for yourself. So

00:05:04 --> 00:05:05

you need to protect your

00:05:06 --> 00:05:10

Amana, the trust that has been given on you, by tolerable

00:05:12 --> 00:05:14

by seeking knowledge.

00:05:17 --> 00:05:22

Protect the trust given to you by seeking knowledge. What does that

00:05:22 --> 00:05:22

even mean?

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25

How does how does one

00:05:26 --> 00:05:30

interpret that? How do you relate to that? What should you do

00:05:30 --> 00:05:34

tomorrow to do that? I guess I guarantee there's probably

00:05:34 --> 00:05:36

different things going on through our minds right now. Like, how do

00:05:36 --> 00:05:40

I do that? So I'm going to give you something we'd say may seem

00:05:40 --> 00:05:42

very off, but I think it's part of this.

00:05:44 --> 00:05:48

So let's just say that somebody's got a medical problem.

00:05:49 --> 00:05:51

Right, whether that be anything from

00:05:53 --> 00:05:55

I mean, it doesn't sound doesn't have to be a medical problem, but

00:05:56 --> 00:06:00

somebody can't have children. Somebody is infertile. Somebody

00:06:00 --> 00:06:05

can't get a somebody's got maybe keeps getting flus colds or hay

00:06:05 --> 00:06:09

fever, right? That's quite common, isn't it? You get hay fever, a lot

00:06:09 --> 00:06:12

of people, a lot of people suffer with allergies, for example.

00:06:14 --> 00:06:17

What else headaches, migraines, what else is common

00:06:19 --> 00:06:23

pains at various types of the month, and so on and so forth.

00:06:24 --> 00:06:25

What are we doing about that?

00:06:27 --> 00:06:29

What do most people do? When you get a pain?

00:06:30 --> 00:06:30

What do you do?

00:06:35 --> 00:06:37

Okay, paracetamol is like a good answer for everything, isn't it?

00:06:38 --> 00:06:42

You go to a doctor otherwise, right? That's our shop that we go

00:06:42 --> 00:06:46

to we go, we go and see a doctor hamdulillah go to go to a doctor.

00:06:46 --> 00:06:48

Because that's actually one of the things that the prosecution has

00:06:48 --> 00:06:52

mentioned to us. It's in the Hadith, that you should, Allah

00:06:52 --> 00:06:55

subhanho wa Taala the prophets, Allah some said, Allah, any

00:06:55 --> 00:06:59

sickness that he has caused to descend or put onto the earth,

00:06:59 --> 00:07:03

he's also given a cure for it. That's the words of the Prophet

00:07:03 --> 00:07:07

sallallahu sallam. Anything the price of lorrison has caught has

00:07:07 --> 00:07:11

Allah has given as a sickness or an illness. He's also given a

00:07:11 --> 00:07:14

cure. Sometimes we know it, and sometimes we don't.

00:07:15 --> 00:07:18

And the prophets, Allah Islam has encouraged that, yes, you can use

00:07:18 --> 00:07:19

medicine.

00:07:20 --> 00:07:23

So there's actually encouragement in Hadith about that. So yes, go

00:07:23 --> 00:07:26

go and go and get encouragement for that. But

00:07:29 --> 00:07:31

as a Muslim is that oh, we should do? What about everything else

00:07:31 --> 00:07:33

Rosa? Lawson's told us.

00:07:35 --> 00:07:38

So for example, aside from the spiritual things we supposed to

00:07:38 --> 00:07:43

do, which is ask Allah, right to do da, da is the weapon of the

00:07:43 --> 00:07:47

believer, it's gonna give you whatever you need. Number two is

00:07:47 --> 00:07:51

the fire stick fire is the way to remove blockage.

00:07:52 --> 00:07:56

It's the way to remove blockage from blessing that is supposed to

00:07:56 --> 00:08:02

be coming to us. But because we've done certain things that we

00:08:02 --> 00:08:03

shouldn't have,

00:08:04 --> 00:08:06

or we're not doing certain things we should be doing. And that's

00:08:06 --> 00:08:10

what's preventing it. We just gonna never know unless we try

00:08:10 --> 00:08:15

that. So that's da and so far. But then we've got a number of other

00:08:15 --> 00:08:17

things, right? For example,

00:08:18 --> 00:08:24

isn't zum zum? Something that is for whatever is it's drunk for?

00:08:24 --> 00:08:27

Whatever people drink? Zum zum for they get that that's what the

00:08:27 --> 00:08:32

Hadith says. That you drink zamzam. And you will get whatever

00:08:32 --> 00:08:38

you ask for. Right. Zum zum is for whatever it is drunk for. So why

00:08:38 --> 00:08:41

not use some of that as well, for something as simple as hay fever?

00:08:41 --> 00:08:42

Has anybody tried that?

00:08:44 --> 00:08:47

It seems like once we hear it, I was like, Oh, I didn't even bother

00:08:47 --> 00:08:50

trying that that's in the Hadith. We're always worried about

00:08:50 --> 00:08:53

antihistamines and Claritin and Clarinex. And

00:08:54 --> 00:08:55

what's the other one called?

00:08:56 --> 00:08:59

You know, drowsy, non drowsy, that's what we're worried about.

00:08:59 --> 00:09:00

Take that. Absolutely.

00:09:03 --> 00:09:05

And you know what, it really works.

00:09:06 --> 00:09:11

It really works. There's been several occasions that I felt

00:09:12 --> 00:09:15

allergies coming along. I was like, No way this this is the

00:09:15 --> 00:09:18

wrong time for this. Like you're in hunch, you don't want to get

00:09:18 --> 00:09:22

sick. You're getting a sore throat. Believe me, put your hand

00:09:22 --> 00:09:26

on your throat, put your hand on your nose, wherever your problem

00:09:26 --> 00:09:31

is. stomach problems, headaches, and start reading Allahumma

00:09:31 --> 00:09:36

robinus of hibel Bus wash V and the Shafi la Schiefer Illa,

00:09:36 --> 00:09:39

Schiefer, orca Schiefer, and La you heard the Lusaka man seven

00:09:39 --> 00:09:45

times. I guarantee you I've had she felt from that several times.

00:09:45 --> 00:09:47

Like sometimes I read I'm like, it's not going to happen this

00:09:47 --> 00:09:52

time. This is too much like magic. Right? But I'm not joking.

00:09:53 --> 00:09:56

Not to say you don't take many you can take medicine as well. My

00:09:56 --> 00:09:59

coworker is not up there. I'm just gonna make dua not take medicine.

00:09:59 --> 00:09:59

Fishing is not there.

00:10:00 --> 00:10:01

But

00:10:02 --> 00:10:05

I'm not joking. It is like a miracle. What does it mean?

00:10:05 --> 00:10:11

Allahumma robinus Oh ALLAH the load of people as he will bus, get

00:10:11 --> 00:10:15

rid of this difficulty this affliction this pain, wash fee

00:10:15 --> 00:10:20

give me cure, because under Shafi you are the cure. You are the

00:10:20 --> 00:10:21

cure.

00:10:22 --> 00:10:26

Allah shifa, Illa Schiefer Oke, there is no cure except your cure.

00:10:27 --> 00:10:31

Right she far and such a cure law you have all the resettlement that

00:10:31 --> 00:10:35

can never miss a sickness, meaning it will take it and it will

00:10:35 --> 00:10:39

vanquish it. What a powerful dua calling Unto Allah with his name

00:10:39 --> 00:10:40

as a cure.

00:10:41 --> 00:10:45

In the right way, how many of us have done that? Right? So it's

00:10:45 --> 00:10:49

like simple things that we should be doing. So there's that. Then

00:10:49 --> 00:10:53

there's zum zum, to drink zum zum. So those two things, the prophets

00:10:53 --> 00:10:56

Allah ism, in fact, Allah says that she felt loneliness is in

00:10:56 --> 00:11:01

honey. Honey has she felt for people? So take some honey?

00:11:02 --> 00:11:07

Like, you could probably just do rock Rose was a call rose, honey,

00:11:07 --> 00:11:09

or is it our Oh, Reseda

00:11:11 --> 00:11:15

rose honey are ows II The ones you generally get in the shops? So

00:11:15 --> 00:11:18

maybe you think that's not good enough? So go and get some marucho

00:11:18 --> 00:11:21

Go and get some Sydor honey, right? Go and get some nicer

00:11:21 --> 00:11:25

honey, spend some money on it. Right? And take that as a large

00:11:27 --> 00:11:30

because honey suppose of Shiva, do it with the intention? Do it with

00:11:30 --> 00:11:33

the fact that Allah has said to Shiva and yes, I'm going to do it.

00:11:33 --> 00:11:36

But look, if you're diabetic, I've seen a guy who is diabetic and

00:11:37 --> 00:11:41

he is putting about three tablespoons of honey into his tea.

00:11:41 --> 00:11:45

And I'm like, What are you doing? Right, you're diabetic. So this is

00:11:45 --> 00:11:50

Shiva. Come on. Something means Shiva doesn't mean you drown the

00:11:50 --> 00:11:53

whole bottom and expect nothing to happen. She thought means the way

00:11:53 --> 00:11:56

it's you that the Shiva in there if you use it in the right way.

00:11:58 --> 00:12:00

So person has to be a bit ingenuous about that, and we will

00:12:00 --> 00:12:05

not just really use it as an excuse. So honey is another one.

00:12:05 --> 00:12:08

And then we've got black seed.

00:12:09 --> 00:12:13

So use black seed, however, you know, whether that be black seed

00:12:13 --> 00:12:16

oil, put it into something, if that's too strong for you get some

00:12:16 --> 00:12:22

black seed capsules. If that's too much, take the seeds and tell you

00:12:22 --> 00:12:26

know, put it in your foods. It's part of I mean, the Indian Asian

00:12:26 --> 00:12:31

cuisine has at least I think the last time I counted between 10 to

00:12:31 --> 00:12:37

15 different spices in any, you know, normal dish. So what's

00:12:37 --> 00:12:40

Blackseed gonna do like, you know, it's going to add to it.

00:12:41 --> 00:12:44

So Black seat, zone zamzam.

00:12:45 --> 00:12:47

Honey, and what else?

00:12:49 --> 00:12:52

Was that a three acid Blackseed honey

00:12:53 --> 00:12:56

zamzam and that I mentioned anything else?

00:12:57 --> 00:13:00

Dua is default. There's a few other things, there's at least

00:13:00 --> 00:13:03

seven things that the province of Assam has mentioned Chifa in right

00:13:03 --> 00:13:05

there kind of more.

00:13:07 --> 00:13:10

The kind of more exclusive products like coastal Hindi, I

00:13:10 --> 00:13:12

mean, to go and look for that, it's not going to be easy for you

00:13:12 --> 00:13:16

coastal Hindi, the center center is another one, right?

00:13:18 --> 00:13:19

There's also

00:13:20 --> 00:13:24

agile seeds, there's agile and as agile seeds, and in Saudia can

00:13:24 --> 00:13:29

actually buy agile powder, ground agile powder, that's maybe a bit

00:13:29 --> 00:13:32

more bespoke stuff, if you can go and get that as little

00:13:32 --> 00:13:32

Hamdulillah.

00:13:33 --> 00:13:36

In fact, a few years ago, when I'm in for Hydra actually picked up,

00:13:37 --> 00:13:40

somebody had made a potion of the seven things, including zum, zum,

00:13:40 --> 00:13:43

and everything. And it was a piece that they had made of these seven

00:13:43 --> 00:13:47

things. And he's a chef that I know is a friend. And he was

00:13:47 --> 00:13:50

telling me how many people that he's given this to, and they've

00:13:50 --> 00:13:54

actually been cured of some amazing diseases. Right?

00:13:55 --> 00:13:59

So but I'm saying that on a general basis, why don't we try

00:13:59 --> 00:14:02

these things and have these things at the same time, just purely

00:14:02 --> 00:14:06

because this is the Muslim way of doing things? This has been

00:14:06 --> 00:14:09

recommended by our Prophet sallallahu sallam, why can't that

00:14:09 --> 00:14:12

become part of our life? That's what I'm trying to say.

00:14:13 --> 00:14:15

So do Ah, so far

00:14:16 --> 00:14:20

are two things sadaqa is another one. Right? Those are the

00:14:20 --> 00:14:25

spiritual ways of doing things. And in terms of the food aspects,

00:14:25 --> 00:14:28

then the the nutrients, we're talking about the honey, the

00:14:28 --> 00:14:30

zamzam and

00:14:32 --> 00:14:35

the black seed, and the other things if you can get hold of

00:14:35 --> 00:14:38

them, but black seed and honey are quite simple things to get hold

00:14:38 --> 00:14:42

of. So make them part of your diet because we are Muslims. And we

00:14:42 --> 00:14:44

believe in what the private citizen has told us about these

00:14:44 --> 00:14:48

things. So let us do that as well and take your medicine as well. If

00:14:48 --> 00:14:50

you want to hamdulillah it's not a problem.

00:14:53 --> 00:14:55

Wife have a manner that can be tolerable

00:15:00 --> 00:15:03

Some people, you know, you get extremes. And all this once I got

00:15:03 --> 00:15:06

a call from somebody in the hospital, I can't remember exactly

00:15:06 --> 00:15:11

who called me, but it was somebody in the hospital and there was a

00:15:11 --> 00:15:16

guy who, who wasn't allowing the nurses, his wife had just given

00:15:16 --> 00:15:20

birth, and they weren't allowing him to put vitamin D drops into

00:15:20 --> 00:15:21

the ice.

00:15:22 --> 00:15:25

Right? Because he's like, I don't trust these guys, these are too

00:15:25 --> 00:15:29

far. And I don't know what they're going to be doing. So the thing

00:15:29 --> 00:15:32

is, look, there are conspiracies out there. But when you start

00:15:32 --> 00:15:35

reading into it to such a level that then everything seems a

00:15:35 --> 00:15:38

conspiracy, and you got conspiracy waiting for you around the corner.

00:15:39 --> 00:15:41

Right, then that becomes problematic. That's not a life you

00:15:41 --> 00:15:44

want to live, even if there is a conspiracy around the corner,

00:15:45 --> 00:15:49

right? It's just a tough life then Right? Because you're paranoid. So

00:15:49 --> 00:15:52

his wife just given birth, and he wouldn't allow them to have the

00:15:52 --> 00:15:56

vitamin D. So actually, I think there was a Muslims member of

00:15:56 --> 00:16:00

staff, she called me I think, and said, we got this case, what do I

00:16:00 --> 00:16:02

do? So I said, let me speak to the brother. So I spoke to him. And

00:16:02 --> 00:16:05

it's actually if you know, this, that another I don't trust these

00:16:05 --> 00:16:08

guys. I said, please share. I said, my brother, my babies have

00:16:08 --> 00:16:12

had this. My children have had the vitamin D, it's completely fine. I

00:16:12 --> 00:16:15

think it was either it was either the vitamin D in the eye that they

00:16:15 --> 00:16:17

put, you know, that is a vitamin K, sorry.

00:16:18 --> 00:16:21

Is it on the foot? There's something to put in that is no.

00:16:21 --> 00:16:26

Okay, maybe I'm getting it wrong. It was either that, or it was what

00:16:26 --> 00:16:28

else did they give straightaway?

00:16:29 --> 00:16:32

Or I think no, I think it had something to do with that. Maybe

00:16:32 --> 00:16:36

it was a bit jaundiced. Right? So, yeah, I think it was something to

00:16:36 --> 00:16:39

do. It was one of those things that are quite standard at the

00:16:39 --> 00:16:42

beginning. But he felt that there was a conspiracy.

00:16:45 --> 00:16:46

So you get that as well.

00:16:48 --> 00:16:54

But we need to be holistic. So why do we abandon our own when the

00:16:54 --> 00:16:57

professor was spoken so highly about these things that Blackseed

00:16:57 --> 00:16:59

has, she fell for everything except death.

00:17:00 --> 00:17:03

That's big. We're not giving you any guarantee for death, but

00:17:03 --> 00:17:04

anything else.

00:17:06 --> 00:17:10

And then he says, well, Huseynov Lockerby, Adobe will help me.

00:17:10 --> 00:17:15

Protect your intelligence, with the dub of the people of

00:17:15 --> 00:17:20

forbearance, with the etiquette of the people of forbearance. So

00:17:20 --> 00:17:23

don't get too smart. And then,

00:17:25 --> 00:17:28

in your smartness, abuse people,

00:17:29 --> 00:17:31

or lash out,

00:17:32 --> 00:17:32

or

00:17:33 --> 00:17:37

do things that will be unbecoming of a believer.

00:17:38 --> 00:17:43

Alcohol is important, but it's not to make you arrogant. It's not to

00:17:43 --> 00:17:48

give you the right to boast. Alcohol is there that you use it

00:17:48 --> 00:17:51

for the sake of Allah subhana wa Tada. And you temper it, you

00:17:51 --> 00:17:55

control it with Hilman forbearance, which means you take

00:17:55 --> 00:18:00

it easy, and you see how to act with these things. And prepare

00:18:00 --> 00:18:06

patience for every position, every circumstance, be ready to be

00:18:06 --> 00:18:08

patient when the time demands.

00:18:10 --> 00:18:13

Although some scholars say don't ask for patience if you don't need

00:18:13 --> 00:18:13

it.

00:18:15 --> 00:18:17

Meaning don't ask for patients against calamities when there is

00:18:17 --> 00:18:21

no calamity. Because if that dog gets accepted, then you're going

00:18:21 --> 00:18:26

to have a calamity and you'll have patients over it. But be prepared

00:18:26 --> 00:18:31

to exercise patience. And you can only do that if we've learnt

00:18:33 --> 00:18:36

how patients should be by seeing how other people who have

00:18:36 --> 00:18:38

patience. But generally,

00:18:40 --> 00:18:42

when a person doesn't act with patience, it's generally because

00:18:42 --> 00:18:46

of a spontaneous reaction, which we're so used to.

00:18:47 --> 00:18:52

We're so used to maybe lashing out swearing, scowling

00:18:54 --> 00:18:58

making a bad face, turning our face away. Whatever it is, these

00:18:58 --> 00:19:02

are normal things. That means that we're gonna have to learn to

00:19:02 --> 00:19:07

exercise patience at these times. And the way to do that, you know,

00:19:07 --> 00:19:10

patients, it's a very difficult thing to do. But it becomes very

00:19:10 --> 00:19:15

easy when you focus on the but on the, on the blessings that come

00:19:15 --> 00:19:18

with patience. A lot of the time you know, you're right.

00:19:21 --> 00:19:22

And the other person is wrong.

00:19:24 --> 00:19:29

So you are in the upper position, and you think, why should I?

00:19:31 --> 00:19:33

Why should I forgive?

00:19:34 --> 00:19:37

Why should I not lash out?

00:19:38 --> 00:19:42

Because you feel a sense of anger. There's a lot of anger. And the

00:19:42 --> 00:19:48

tension is between the anger and exercising patience. The only way

00:19:48 --> 00:19:52

that we will be able to control our anger and exercise patience,

00:19:52 --> 00:19:56

is if we read enough about the harms of anger, and the fact that

00:19:56 --> 00:19:59

it works alongside me saying don't be angry. Don't be angry. Don't be

00:19:59 --> 00:19:59

angry. Anger does

00:20:00 --> 00:20:03

this to you. Allah subhanho wa taala. Praises LKL demeanor leader

00:20:03 --> 00:20:07

well i fina and in us those people who control their anger and who

00:20:07 --> 00:20:10

generally pardon people when you've got that in your mind at

00:20:10 --> 00:20:13

that time, and then you've got rubbish it is Siberian Alladhina

00:20:13 --> 00:20:17

either. Asaba Tomas Eva Godwin alila who is the Roger on Willa

00:20:17 --> 00:20:20

Icardi him Salah to me, Robbie Moraga, what would I go woman,

00:20:20 --> 00:20:23

what they're doing, when you got that in your mind, and

00:20:24 --> 00:20:27

then you'll then it will come the anger down.

00:20:28 --> 00:20:30

Otherwise, if you've got nothing to calm the anger down, you just

00:20:30 --> 00:20:31

want to lash out.

00:20:33 --> 00:20:37

Husband and wife problems. Once in a while that kind of happens.

00:20:38 --> 00:20:40

Right? What happens is getting to happen more frequently, because

00:20:40 --> 00:20:43

it's become habitual, is becoming a trait.

00:20:44 --> 00:20:47

We need sober and sober

00:20:49 --> 00:20:53

really, really helps that when you know that if I control myself

00:20:53 --> 00:20:56

here, I'm not going to I'm not just going to be able to control

00:20:56 --> 00:20:59

the situation, but I'm going to be rewarded by Allah. Allah loves

00:20:59 --> 00:21:00

patience.

00:21:01 --> 00:21:05

When we know that, then psychological effects, it's just

00:21:05 --> 00:21:08

about knowing it at the right time and being conscientious at the

00:21:08 --> 00:21:11

right time of this fact. That's the difficulty.

00:21:13 --> 00:21:16

But we have to train ourselves to do that. Which means that if we do

00:21:16 --> 00:21:20

let ourselves go, and under weakness, sometimes we need to

00:21:20 --> 00:21:24

beat ourselves up. Not literally, but you know what I mean? Right,

00:21:24 --> 00:21:26

that look, that's the wrong way I should have reacted in this case.

00:21:27 --> 00:21:31

So that the next time that will because it's all personal

00:21:31 --> 00:21:31

training.

00:21:33 --> 00:21:36

It's all part and we're all we're all at different levels in this

00:21:36 --> 00:21:40

regard. Some of us are very calm people, and some of us are not

00:21:40 --> 00:21:44

very calm. So those of us who are not very calm, we've got a lot

00:21:44 --> 00:21:47

more to learn. Those of you who are calm, you guys have other

00:21:47 --> 00:21:50

challenges. Everybody has a challenge.

00:21:51 --> 00:21:53

Right? Everybody has a different challenge.

00:21:55 --> 00:21:59

Then he says, well, the middle hull with a big victory. Well, the

00:21:59 --> 00:22:01

middle hull water with victory.

00:22:04 --> 00:22:07

Hold fast to hold fast to

00:22:10 --> 00:22:11

Solitude

00:22:14 --> 00:22:15

by remembering Allah subhanaw taala

00:22:17 --> 00:22:22

Is he a lot of people, they need to be speaking to somebody. They

00:22:22 --> 00:22:24

can't sit and do nothing.

00:22:25 --> 00:22:28

That's why it's too boring for them to stay at home, they need to

00:22:28 --> 00:22:31

go out or they need to be online, they need to be doing something.

00:22:33 --> 00:22:37

So what he's saying here is that if you want to be in solitude, and

00:22:37 --> 00:22:40

protect yourself from a lot of stuff that goes on,

00:22:41 --> 00:22:44

then the best one to be with is Allah by doing a vicar of Allah.

00:22:45 --> 00:22:48

Because when you're alone, and you're doing vicar of Allah,

00:22:49 --> 00:22:52

you're not wasting your time you're with the best of friends

00:22:52 --> 00:22:54

you with the best of those that you could be with the best of

00:22:54 --> 00:22:59

companions. So get yourself used to it. And Allah will give you

00:22:59 --> 00:23:01

sweetness as you start doing that.

00:23:04 --> 00:23:08

And because of that sweetness, you will want to come back, but

00:23:08 --> 00:23:10

there's going to be a lot of other competition, especially if you're

00:23:10 --> 00:23:13

a very social kind of person who likes to do other things and then

00:23:13 --> 00:23:16

they shaytaan in the equation as well. So we're not saying this is

00:23:16 --> 00:23:20

easy, but at least if we know next time that if I want to be alone

00:23:20 --> 00:23:22

let me just sit and do something

00:23:23 --> 00:23:26

when you're alone in the bus and you have you've got a 20 minute

00:23:26 --> 00:23:28

ride. What are you supposed to do in that time?

00:23:31 --> 00:23:34

I mean, I guess that's like a stupid question now isn't it? It's

00:23:34 --> 00:23:35

like you're on your phone

00:23:36 --> 00:23:37

what are you gonna do

00:23:39 --> 00:23:41

i That's just like such a silly girl What are you going to do with

00:23:41 --> 00:23:43

20 minutes on the phone? I'm going to be on my on the on the bus I'm

00:23:43 --> 00:23:45

going to be on the phone on the underground we're on the

00:23:45 --> 00:23:47

underground you can't be on your phone

00:23:48 --> 00:23:51

when you can? Of course you can.

00:23:53 --> 00:23:58

So I don't know these are times when you know we need to we

00:23:58 --> 00:24:00

shouldn't be bored at anytime and we clearly need to work with the

00:24:00 --> 00:24:04

phone. We really need to really control the phone issue. I don't I

00:24:04 --> 00:24:06

don't want to make this discussion about that because I've spoken

00:24:06 --> 00:24:07

about that enough times.

00:24:08 --> 00:24:12

And then he says What's happenin Naomi Shoukry

00:24:13 --> 00:24:15

what's happening? I'ma be Shoukry

00:24:16 --> 00:24:20

accompany bounties with gratefulness. When you get a

00:24:20 --> 00:24:24

bounty from Allah subhanaw taala thank Allah subhanaw taala

00:24:26 --> 00:24:30

How many times do you think that's going to be if you think to us if

00:24:30 --> 00:24:31

we think to ourselves, right?

00:24:33 --> 00:24:36

That we need to thank Allah every time we get a bounty.

00:24:37 --> 00:24:41

And just think back to today only. Right because it's evening right

00:24:41 --> 00:24:43

now. So everything that's happened since the morning

00:24:44 --> 00:24:48

how many things come up in your mind that we need to be thankful

00:24:48 --> 00:24:50

to Allah subhanaw taala for for today.

00:24:54 --> 00:24:56

There may be somebody who thinks that there's nothing that he's got

00:24:56 --> 00:24:58

to be thankful for for today.

00:25:00 --> 00:25:03

Is that is that a? I mean? Is there anybody like that that's got

00:25:03 --> 00:25:05

like today? I got nothing to be thankful about.

00:25:07 --> 00:25:08

Must be somebody No.

00:25:12 --> 00:25:14

Can everybody think of at least one thing they got to be thankful

00:25:14 --> 00:25:15

for?

00:25:16 --> 00:25:17

Right? Probably.

00:25:19 --> 00:25:22

But would you have thought to be thankful for that? Have we done

00:25:22 --> 00:25:25

sugar today at all like Hamdulillah?

00:25:26 --> 00:25:29

Have you done? How many of us I mean, just put your hand up

00:25:29 --> 00:25:32

slightly and we've done sugar today too, but anything

00:25:33 --> 00:25:38

but anything? Okay, that's a minority. Right? That's about 40%

00:25:39 --> 00:25:39

It's not bad.

00:25:41 --> 00:25:44

But do you see what I'm saying? There's so much sugar should be

00:25:44 --> 00:25:47

part of our just like I talked about black seed and honey and all

00:25:47 --> 00:25:51

the rest of us is part of our regular diet. Part of our regular

00:25:51 --> 00:25:54

diet needs to be sugar. We got so many things to be thankful about.

00:25:54 --> 00:25:58

Just reaching work safely is a shocker. Having a job as a

00:25:58 --> 00:25:58

shipper.

00:26:00 --> 00:26:05

Right. Just having a nice meal yesterday I bought a bread, a loaf

00:26:05 --> 00:26:09

of bread from this new bakery that's just closes at three

00:26:09 --> 00:26:13

o'clock in the afternoon. managed to find it open. three pound 50

00:26:13 --> 00:26:18

for a loaf. But what a bread. Mashallah, sourdough. Right?

00:26:18 --> 00:26:23

Amazing. And it's sugar to Allah that Allah has given me this

00:26:24 --> 00:26:29

was definitely worth doing sugar for it's very expensive, but it's

00:26:29 --> 00:26:31

worth it. I mean, it's compared to the one pound Hovis.

00:26:34 --> 00:26:36

Because that's what mass produced, that's why, you know,

00:26:37 --> 00:26:40

come by three pound 50 bread all the time. But

00:26:43 --> 00:26:46

actually, what some are, the more recommend is that you buy good

00:26:46 --> 00:26:52

stuff, bit of it, and you eat less, be good. But that's a

00:26:52 --> 00:26:53

difficult one.

00:26:56 --> 00:26:59

So there's so much to do sugar for Believe me, there is just shoma so

00:26:59 --> 00:27:02

much to do sugar for when you hear that somebody else has died today,

00:27:02 --> 00:27:05

somebody else has got sickness and you're not going hamdulillah

00:27:05 --> 00:27:08

right. You got children and they've come back from school and

00:27:08 --> 00:27:11

you see them happy and say sugar man, you know, you do sugar to

00:27:11 --> 00:27:14

Allah for your, that you got children.

00:27:15 --> 00:27:18

You've got a spouse that's making you happy, do sugar for that

00:27:19 --> 00:27:22

hamdulillah there's just so much to sugar for needs to become part

00:27:22 --> 00:27:26

of the lifestyle, part of our habit to do that. And it's not

00:27:26 --> 00:27:29

difficult once you do that, and then you will see that once you

00:27:29 --> 00:27:34

start doing sugar, the baraka will just just just come upon you. You

00:27:34 --> 00:27:38

won't have to ask Allah for anything. He will give you the

00:27:38 --> 00:27:39

baraka the blessing will open up

00:27:41 --> 00:27:44

not doing sugar is a is a blockage.

00:27:46 --> 00:27:49

And like you know, I'm not even joking about this stuff. This is

00:27:49 --> 00:27:50

not just

00:27:51 --> 00:27:55

do sugar and I'm serious, Allah will start giving you

00:27:56 --> 00:27:58

because Allah says that in the Quran, Allah insha khardungla

00:27:58 --> 00:28:01

zedan Nico, you'll be thankful and I will increase

00:28:02 --> 00:28:05

I will do it abundantly I will increase in it.

00:28:08 --> 00:28:11

So always was happy now maybe sugar, just those five things that

00:28:11 --> 00:28:12

he's mentioned here is amazing.

00:28:14 --> 00:28:19

Just another point on doing vicar in solitudes. One of the reasons

00:28:19 --> 00:28:23

for doing victory in solitude is that that's going to be purely

00:28:24 --> 00:28:27

because you're only proving it to yourself.

00:28:28 --> 00:28:29

Doing vicar here

00:28:30 --> 00:28:34

could be that you're showing somebody with the other. But when

00:28:34 --> 00:28:40

you're doing vicar for yourself, in your heart alone,

00:28:41 --> 00:28:44

the only person that you're trying to do that for is yourself. And

00:28:44 --> 00:28:47

it's easier to deal with it for ourselves than when somebody else

00:28:47 --> 00:28:50

is in the equation. So inshallah we'll come out with much more

00:28:50 --> 00:28:52

sincerity, much more sincerity.

00:28:54 --> 00:28:59

So, the last two points I'll just make in brief before we move on to

00:28:59 --> 00:29:00

our vigorous was the in Billahi

00:29:02 --> 00:29:08

weststein biLlahi. Frequently amor seek assistance with Allah, for

00:29:08 --> 00:29:12

every one of your matters, was stuck in Allah have equally *.

00:29:13 --> 00:29:13

And

00:29:16 --> 00:29:22

there's two ways to translate this. One is ask Allah for

00:29:22 --> 00:29:27

decision in every one of your states, so do istikhara

00:29:28 --> 00:29:31

but the other meaning of istikhara is ask Allah for excellence and

00:29:31 --> 00:29:35

goodness in whatever you're doing for all of your states, do

00:29:35 --> 00:29:40

istikhara so it's the harder means to ask Allah for higher to ask

00:29:40 --> 00:29:43

Allah for the goodness in something. So it's the court is

00:29:43 --> 00:29:48

not always done for making a choice. But even once you've

00:29:48 --> 00:29:52

decided that yes, I'm going to marry this person. continued doing

00:29:52 --> 00:29:53

istikhara with the intention

00:29:56 --> 00:29:59

that oh Allah give me the best of this. Oh Allah give me the best of

00:29:59 --> 00:29:59

it.

00:30:00 --> 00:30:03

because it means tolerable hate to seek goodness in something.

00:30:06 --> 00:30:10

If it's the hardest benefited you in, hopefully making what you

00:30:10 --> 00:30:14

think is the right choice, then now do istikhara to ask for

00:30:14 --> 00:30:17

goodness in that choice. One of the things that Imam shot on he

00:30:17 --> 00:30:18

says,

00:30:19 --> 00:30:22

in the etiquettes, of remembering Allah, however you do your liquor,

00:30:24 --> 00:30:26

know, and you've sat down and you've done thicker, whether that

00:30:26 --> 00:30:28

be your meditation, we'll talk about some Tasbeeh how to

00:30:28 --> 00:30:29

whatever.

00:30:30 --> 00:30:34

And I think This even applies to prayer. He says, what you should

00:30:34 --> 00:30:38

do is after you finish your thinking, then just sit for some

00:30:38 --> 00:30:43

moments. And basically, I think what he's saying is, you know, the

00:30:43 --> 00:30:48

blessings and the mercy that you've just invoked through

00:30:48 --> 00:30:51

remembrance of Allah. Because you know, with the remembrance of

00:30:51 --> 00:30:54

Allah tranquility descends, right?

00:30:56 --> 00:31:00

You get blessings. You're invoking blessings, angels, and there's all

00:31:00 --> 00:31:04

of these narrations that speak about when you do remembrance of

00:31:04 --> 00:31:09

Allah that happens. So you're in that environment when you do vicar

00:31:09 --> 00:31:12

and if you've got 10 People 20 People 30 People are doing better

00:31:12 --> 00:31:17

than that environment is being created right? So once you finish,

00:31:18 --> 00:31:21

then just bask in that for a while just just just immerse yourself

00:31:21 --> 00:31:26

just allow it that wave of that to benefit you and to fall over you.

00:31:28 --> 00:31:31

So don't just you know do things and then rush off because you're

00:31:31 --> 00:31:34

losing a lot of the benefits like use it

00:31:36 --> 00:31:37

so anyway

00:31:42 --> 00:31:43

that's me call it do I know insha Allah.

00:31:45 --> 00:31:48

Allah Mantis Salam wa Minca Salaam Baalak there then God will the

00:31:48 --> 00:31:48
