There is no path closer to getting to Allah subhanaw taala closer to
being a believer closer to being success successful in the
hereafter closer to being a good human being than than
truthfulness. Now, let's look at it from another perspective. When
you have truth, then there's a balance in the world, when there's
truthfulness, there's a balance in the world relationships become
stronger. I generally always tell couples, husbands and wives, that
any of you make a mistake, just be upfront with the partner. Just be
upfront with your spouse that I've made a mistake. Because they will
always find out if you managed to hide it for a while with anybody,
actually anybody close to you, whether that be your spouse,
whether that be your family, or anybody else, if you manage to
hide it for a long enough time. And then it's found out it's
actually even worse, because how did you deceive us for so long?
People take it as a major affront. Recently, I had a case like that
where they say we lied to me for this long instead, it was
apparently a guy was husband was having an affair and then he lied
afterwards. So the wife is getting really really upset by the fact
that he lied. I was trying to understand I said, Why are you
getting so upset by that? I know it's something to be upset about.
But you're not complaining about the affair as much as you're
complaining about his deception afterwards. Like what else do you
expect him to do? He's done something wrong he wants to hide
it now nothing is justified to do that but you're getting more angry
about the line but that's the weird thing here that's what I
want to try to highlight here that you know people can make mistakes
but then to lie on top of that is seen as a much bigger affront was
really strange. I've had two cases like that recently where they're
more upset about the you know, the follow up than they are about the
solos like they've said, Okay, you made a mistake, but should should
have come should have been upfront about

a mother in his reselecting structure the
Imam how little or has he be? He says
while I'm on the hula toddy

and Jaya who? Me mineral.
Wala as well as the Abdullah who Mina Taqwa
these are a few short short advices that Imam hydrothermal
HiCP is providing each one of them is actually quite rich. And it
needs to be pondered over and benefited from to see how we can
relate it to our lives. Each one of these will have benefits in our
life in sha Allah. So the first thing he says is that know that
there is no path closer than the path of truth. No plot path closer
to the path of truth.
Now, this basically is a number of things. Truthfulness is an
extremely important aspect in good humanity, good ethics being an
insane camel. Because everything is related to the truth. We are
here because of the true one which is ALLAH SubhanA wa Tala al helg.
Dara, Allah,
He created us, he this he had the truth come to us. The Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is the truth and nothing but the truth.
He gave us his words, which is the Quran have to mean that's the
clear truth as well. Thereafter our life is supposed to be full of
truth. Truth is what helps to keep a balance in this world. When you
have untruth, there's an imbalance that gets created. For example,
there are a number of establishments in the world today,
number of institutions, which have now lost their reputation lost any
kind of reliance upon them or trust or whatever, for example, a
political system, because we're living in a really weird time
where it's almost accepted to have some untruths, and it's tolerated.
And people get away with so much on untruth, just because you can
be a bit more savvy about it. You can be a bit more clever and
intelligent and slay about it. So we live in a really, really
strange situation. So many things we read about.
It's almost like the news media, in its various different forms,
most of them, the relationship we have with them is that it's almost
like people think is necessary to read them. But at the same time,
the people who are reading them who think it's necessary to read
them know that not everything in there is the truth. If it's not
completely inaccurate
Read, then there's definitely a spin. And if there's no spin, then
there's selective reporting, where you ignore certain aspects based
on the narrative, and the policy and the outlook of the particular
news organization. But yet, we still take news from them, we
still read it, for whatever reason, what a life we're living,
what a time we're living in, that if something is not true,
something is not always true and is open to doubt, reporting about
certain countries or reporting about certain organizations and
certain people or certain religions, we've seen over and
over again,
not even mistakes, not even blunders just complete
misreporting. And yet we still have to read them. We still have
to go to such outlets, this is probably no single outlet that's
100% Among the me among the mainstream.
So we're living in very, very strange times of the year, he says
that there is no path closer to getting to Allah subhanaw taala
closer
to being a believer, closer to being success, successful in the
Hereafter, closer to being a good human being than than
truthfulness. Now, let's look at it from another perspective, when
you have truth than there's a balance in the world, when there's
truthfulness, there's a balance in the world relationships become
stronger. I generally always tell couples, husbands and wives, that
any of you make a mistake, just be upfront with the partner. Just be
upfront with your spouse that I've made a mistake. Because they will
always find out.
And if you managed to hide it for a while with anybody, actually
anybody close to you, whether that be your spouse, whether that be
your family, or anybody else, if you managed to hide it for a long
enough time. And then it's found out it's actually even worse.
Because how did you deceive us for so long, people take it as a major
affront.
Recently, I had a case like that, where they say they lied to me for
this long I said,
it was apparently a guy was a husband was having an affair, and
then he lied afterwards. So the wife is getting really, really
upset by the fact that he lied. Like why I was trying to
understand I said, Why are you getting so upset by that? I know
it's something to be upset about. But you're not complaining about
the affair as much as you're complaining about his deception
afterwards. Like, what else do you expect him to do? He's done
something wrong, he wants to hide it. Now, nothing is justified to
do that. But you're getting more angry about the line. But that's
the weird thing here. That's what I want to try to highlight here.
That, you know, people can make mistakes. But then to lie on top
of that is seen as a much bigger affront was really strange. I've
had two cases like that recently, where they're more upset about
the, you know, the follow up than they are about the solos, like
they've said, Okay, you made a mistake, but should should have
come should have been upfront about it. Now with Allah, You
can't lie anyway. You know, there is no lying with Allah subhanaw
taala, he knows there's no way to lie. But yes, people like some
kind of system, some kind of transparency and clarity, even if
people make a mistake, and people are willing to forgive that. But
when you lie on top of that, that's seen as a greater problem,
that's seen as a much bigger problem, because that creates
instability in the world. And when you have instability in the world,
you can't live a * of a harmonious, predictable,
consistent life.
It's really troubling, because you're doubting all the time. Can
you see how bad lying is, is a doubt all the time.
There's a doubt all the time one person was telling me, they are
part of the him and his group of people, they are part of inherited
businesses, or ongoing family business in another country. So
their parents have started businesses or grandparents or
whoever it was, and they are now in the business. And in that
particular country, there's a lot of what they call the
I forget what it's called them.
In order to avoid import tariffs, import taxes, and so on, they
under invoice. So they show less on the invoice and they find other
means to pay and so on, just so that they don't have to pay so
much tax. He's telling me that I want to avoid it. But I can't
because it's my father's business. And he won't, you know, because
they won't be as valuable. And
so I was just wondering, you know, I just I was just curious. Why,
you know, because he was very, very very
aggrieved about it.
So he said, what happens is that I've noticed that because it
happens in there, it kind of then follows up on too many other
things.
You because that becomes a kind of a mindset. You start doing that in
other things as well. It becomes easier to do because once you've
broken a taboo, it becomes easier to do it and other things.
So cheating with benefits, welfare
and so on, then it becomes easier to do that elsewhere.
It's very difficult to be like very selective. Now I can't lie
here, but I'm okay to lie here. Some people do actually, they just
think it's okay to lie in this case, but not in this case. So he
said, it just carries over to many other things. And I don't want to
do that because it upsets the whole balance of your life, toward
balance of your function, the whole balance of you as a human
being when you want to be a straight human being, with no
doubts in your life
with no inconsistencies as clear as possible.
So there is that and the benefit of truthfulness is directly
related to spirituality. Absolutely, and directory
spirituality. Because if a person can be
untruthful in other things, then why you can't really be untruthful
with Allah, but they will do they'll be so deceived that it
actually try to be untruthful with Allah subhanaw taala.
So really strange conundrum even though the belief tells us that
you can't be in truth with Allah because he knows everything.
Yeah, and the more math is so do you knows everything acquirable in
a common Hublin worried Acaba, Raman Hubble worried, but it just
becomes chronic, it becomes a chronic problem.
Now what's really interesting is if you remember that the soul of
lectures
it shows that when you start ascending the McCombs ascending
the makan of
the various Maxim's of spirituality, the highest one, the
highest one, which is just below that of prophecy.
prophethood can only be gained through Allah subhanaw taala and
that's ended anyway. So is no more members in the Prophet McCollum
anyway, meaning the station of prophethood. The one below that,
that humans can reach that everybody else can reach aside
from prophets, is the MACOM of Siddiqui year
of absolute veracity, being the absolute champions of truth
that can only be reached, that is called MACOM of Sidiki. Like it's
a MACOM, of being truthful, like there is no that its name is that
those people who have shown absolute truthfulness and
sincerity to Allah because when a person is very, very truthful,
they become sincere.
That's what a class is excellence is absolute veracity with Allah
subhanaw taala.
So that's how a person becomes truthful with Allah subhanaw
taala. And that's how they can ascend that. And what's
interesting, the Anima says that that MACOM that specific
designation, there's no end to that. You can keep ascending in
the It's an endless ascent into that MACOM of CDT so you don't
reach there and you're all the same, then there's people at
different levels within that, but it's tough, and it's quite, quite
an intense MACOM to reach anyway, because you have to show yourself
to be absolutely truthful, as Allah says in the Quran about the
Sahaba and others I mean, human cover Ananda who I mean who may
interview or not but diluted de la
so that is why I'm an unloved and the hula tariqa acquirable Muna
sick, there is no path closer and more facilitated except by civic
and truthfulness. Then he says
wala Delila.
Angelholm ina level,
there is no delille there is no sign, there is no evidence.
More
providing of success than knowledge.
More success providing gives you success if you want success is
knowledge. And that's in a worldly sense. That's in a spiritual
sense. That's in a Imani sense, the more you know, today
Subhanallah we believe in Allah. As we talked about last week, we
lost in the last session we actually believe in Allah and if
you're a believer, you believe in Allah. But I think there's a
massive unawareness of Allah subhanaw taala of who He really
is. We know what we must believe hopefully we know that much to be
qualified as believers but
in order to love him, you need knowledge of Him because you can't
love somebody unless you know their characteristics. The way to
love something through there, why do you love something is because
of their characteristic you like a characteristic of this? And Allah
has all the beautiful characteristics but Allah Hill
Asmaa Hill HERSA,
Warilla Hill, methadone Erda.
So if you don't know it, you don't you can't love something you don't
know that the more you know, and they have characteristics and you
can't even help but love them. And that's the beauty of this. So it's
the names of Allah subhanaw taala that will really, really help. So
knowledge there is no way
have success except through knowledge. You become more aware
of anything and you become more skilled at it, you become better
at it.
You become less prone to be deceived regarding it shaitan
can't deceive us if you have a knowledge of Allah subhanaw taala
shaitan can't deceive us in sha Allah, if we have knowledge of the
deen, at least we'll know that we're doing wrong. It's worse to
do something wrong and not knowing you're doing wrong or is it worse
to not do something wrong? And you know, you're wrong. What is worse?
I don't know. It depends. If you know you're doing wrong, at least
you have a possibility of making Toba and repentance because you
have a guilty feeling. But if you don't know that you're doing
wrong, and you actually think you're doing right. And it's
misconceived misconstrued because shaytaan creates a deception. And
that's even worse. Well as the above Amina taco.
There's there's no provision provision that is more effective
than taco effect, what is effective provision mean? I think
effective provision just means the most suitable provision that you
can have that helps you get to your destination. So for every,
you can say that for every active sport, there are provisions that
they provide for that, you get into biking, you have these
various different
replacement, minerals, and so on that you're supposed to take on
your way so that you can have enough energy. They provide you
different packets that you know, you can purchase at different
levels. For each thing, there's something different for runners,
there's something for bikers, there's something for hedge,
there's provisions, you take on the way for a journey, you take
provisions. And the idea of provision is the most appropriate
provision is that which helps you reach your,
your destination. So the provision of this world is taqwa.
God fearing us, it helps in many, many different aspects. So in the
world, as we're going through this world, we have to deal with
some major issues. The biggest factors that confront us the
biggest challenges that confront us is what one is how do we make
ourselves truthful to Allah subhanaw taala and fulfill his
obligations? And number two, how do we deal with people?
How do we deal with Allah subhanho wa taala? Number one, fulfill the
obligation stay away from the prohibitions? That's two things.
But there's other levels that we which we deal with Allah subhanaw
taala, which is, how do we thank him for anything good that he
provides us? And how do we deal with any loss and shortcoming?
Because those two are important? They all come from Allah subhanaw
taala. Right. So there's no way to escape that either. So to worship,
to avoid to show your devotion to avoid
prohibitions, and then to deal with the calamities or successes,
adversities, prosperity, good and bad, that happens to us. How do we
deal with that. And for that Taqwa is the best that God fearing this
because that is what tempers it, along with knowledge, and so on.
Then the second thing that we deal with is others. And sometimes the
most aggravating factors could come from your closest ones,
because you deal with them on a more frequent basis. The closest
ones, whether that be physically close, or close through kinship,
so that means you're dealing with your father,
you're dealing with your brother, you're dealing with children,
you're dealing with your spouse, And subhanAllah while you could
change a spouse, but how would you change a father? How do you change
a mother? The stories that come up, mother's father's being
unfair, being oppressive, unreasonable,
too demanding?
And so on and so forth? Extremely crazy stories. What do you do?
Recently, I've had two or three stories like that. My advice is,
especially with your close ones, who you can avoid, in the sense
that they are yours Allah has given them to you so firstly,
understand that that father of yours or Mother of yours, is who
God gave you.
Is no changing that you can change your spouse. Right, you can change
a lot of other things, but you cannot change your parents or your
brothers and sisters, for that matter. So number one, you're
stuck with that. Okay. Now what people, a lot of people
what a lot of people the conundrum a lot of people go through here is
that especially if they're religious, and especially if they
want, everyone wants to be with their family.
Everybody wants a stable stability.
In the family, that's a nice thing to have. They are closest ones.
That's where you would like your stability. If you have stability
everywhere else at work, and so on when you go back home, interacted
family and you have trouble.
That's a bit troublesome. You know, you can change your group of
friends, you can change a company, you can change a lot of other
things. But you have trouble with your friends, is it with your
family is very, very difficult. So
there's this inherent desire to have stability with your family,
to be on good terms. But what do you do? So I'm being asked the
question by the son or daughter,
I'm not speaking to the parents. So I can't say your parents are
bad. And they must do this, because they're not going to do
that. They're not even listening to me, I'm speaking to the child.
So my advice to anybody who's in that situation is
the same advice that the Prophet sallallahu Sallam has given for
the end of times. Right? And what is that the time will come when
there's going to be a thaw, there's going to be preferences
given to unsuitable people, over the suitable people. We already
see parts of that happening in different intensities around the
world. All right, but it's just gonna get worse apparently. So if
that's the case, in your family, as well.
Sometimes there's a favorite in the family.
And that favorite then abuses their position, I can throw in
terms of demanding inheritance or other favoritism or whatever the
case is. said look, your responsibility is that you fulfill
your rights towards your family, to your towards your parents,
which means you are there when they need you. You call them up
once in a while you may visit them or whatever the case is, don't
expect anything in return.
Just don't expect anything in return. In fact, expect that
there's going to be a problem. And then you'll be fine. Because when
you know and expect that there could be some potential
aggravation or harm coming from a place you're prepared for it, you
don't like it, obviously, it's not nice to have that. But rather than
be sudden, or rather than, you know, when you know it's going to
come, then you can just deal with it. Now, obviously, with anybody
else, you can ignore them. But your parents you cannot ignore,
you have a responsibility. So you fulfill your responsibility. And
if they don't give you anything, nope, or if they give you thank
Allah don't even think anybody just think Allah.
I know it's not ideal. But there's no magic to change it in any other
way. This is the reality, and this is the best way to deal with it.
If I was speaking to your parents, I tell them something else. But
I'm not speaking to your parents, I'm speaking to you. And then you
will tell me that no, my parents won't listen to anybody this how
they've been for the last 50 years or 60 years. So would you expect
to change, if maybe a miracle, you can only ask Allah, that don't
expect anything.
That makes it easy when you don't expect anything but from Allah
subhanaw taala. But you are fulfilling your responsibility to
everybody else, that you will be rewarded by Allah for fulfilling
our responsibilities to others, and will be rewarded. And Allah
will provide us a replacement for what we're not getting from our
loved ones that we should have received in an ideal situation.
And the third thing is don't perpetrate the same thing when
you're in that position.
What's happening in a lot of these cases, is that things have been
happening for generations, between mother in law's and daughter in
law, for example.
And literally you you will hear that the mother in law has now
given him a saying, This is how we were treated by our mother in law,
so you must do the same thing.
It has to stop somewhere.
It has to stop somewhere you do something different and start a
new trend and better trend. So that's where it is just don't ask
for anything from somebody else. And if they do give it to you if
you do get it hamdulillah hamdulillah but otherwise, don't
expect it and you will be much better off when you do it for
yourself. So well as the unblock minute Taqwa there is no provision
that is more effective in allowing you to reach your destination than
Taqwa.
And maybe that is the reason why the Sunnah hotbar, recited before
Nica before two couples come together. Right is the three
verses include this includes the three verses of Taqwa from the
Quran, because if each of the spouses is trying to uphold God
fearing nurses trying to uphold the laws of Allah what they want,
it just makes it easy because it provides invoking a an authority
above ourselves says
is not me, it's not you. It's Allah that I'm doing something
for. May Allah make that useful. And then one hour a day to earn a
little worse worse see him in Turkey for Dooley. I've not seen
anything that is more removing
and a greater defense from whisperings
OCD, I guess,
whisperings, uncertainties and doubts, than just abandoning
what's unnecessary, abandoning anything in excess, abandoning
anything, which is not needed.
That's what he's saying. So he's from the way he's saying it, he's
saying that look, people can be can fall prey to what's worse,
right.
But if you want to avoid it, I've not seen anything better in
defense and to negate it,
than just to abandon anything in excess.
Because there's less things to bother about, you've just got a
few things to bother about. So that should be beneficial. Well,
because while Anwar al Calbee, means Salah mat is suddenly
not seeing anything more illuminating of the heart, than a
sound, chest.
Meaning don't fill the chest area, internally, with different
thoughts, keep it safe sound, don't have negative thoughts, try
to be positive all the time.
Try not to be negative, try not to think bad of people. Try not to
interpret situations that you see in the most negative way possible.
There's always various ways of interpreting something, and you
will see different people, many people are moderate in the way
they, you know, they quite
adept understanding when genuinely there is something negative and
positive. But they generally keep it positive. There's others who
are overly positive, right, there's nothing ever negative,
then they get caught up sometimes, right? But their positivity just
goes through the roof. Sometimes it's a bit over the top, but I
don't know Hamdulillah, then there's others who are just mostly
negative, they just look at everything to critically.
You have to be aware, can't be silly and naive. But you have to
give the best interpretation that's possible. And in many
affairs of the world is various different narratives that you can
follow.
Islam, Muslims have split because of negative narrative narratives
are one of our biggest splits between the sheer you know the
sheer who split is because of negative narratives towards
probably the more than half majority of the sahaba.
So some of the closest to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam,
a worker or Omar Earthman or the Allahu Anhu.
He shouted the Allahu Anhu have started the Allah Juana. The most,
some of in fact, the most closest to the prophets, Allah lowson.
They've got a negative narrative about it.
It's caused the high cause the Muslim ummah to split.
And a number of other things happens on a normal basis, the way
we interpret events.
Somebody didn't call you for, for two weeks, generally speak to you,
you know, they see you once in a while they speak to you once every
now and two weeks. But rather than think, though, they may have just
become occupied with some kind of really engaging issue. Right, they
may have been going through some trouble or whatever you something,
you know, they don't like me anymore, it's because of this or
it's because of that. It's just some simple examples for that. So
try not to do that. So these were just three advices. I think that's
enough for that's enough for us to
make good with insha Allah if Allah can help us with that. So
the three things you mentioned are the four things or other is that
there is no path that is going to be more effective in getting you
closer to Allah subhanho wa Taala closer to being human being in
this in many ways, and truthfulness, and there is no
sign. There is no path Blaser there is nothing to illuminate the
path for you that is more successful in doing so the
knowledge and there is no provision that is more effective
in getting you to this destination than Taqwa. And I've seen the most
effective removal of doubts from people's hearts is when they is to
for them to abandon excessive things or superfluous things or
things that are beyond their need. And I've not seen anything more
illuminating of the heart than just having
a safe sound and a good thinking
heart essentially, to the best of their ability. You
Allah subhanaw taala give us the feet and enablement to become good
human beings and to benefit ourselves and then benefit others

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