			Smilla Rahmanir Rahim Al hamdu lillah wa salatu salam ala Rasulillah He Allah Le he also he has
mine. My Brothers and Sisters in Islam we are standing now in bacteria on Wattpad This is a place
that it is a sunnah when you come to El Medina to visit this place and to see the diet that and to
be sallallahu alayhi wa sallam taught us. This is the cemetery of El Medina, where the believers are
buried from the time of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Until this day, when you come into a
cemetery it reminds you of death instantly reminds you of death. Hundreds and hundreds and 1000s of
bodies are surrounding us when the V Sun Allahu alayhi wa sallam said, act fill in victory held him
		
00:00:41 --> 00:01:24
			in Lovette. Remember, the destroyer of pleasures in abundance. Death was described as a destroyer of
pleasures, because this is what it does. And this is why one of the rewards in the Paradise was that
the believers live forever, because living forever allows you to enjoy whatever you are given of
blessings. So death is described as a destroyer of pleasures because whatever you have in your hands
in this life, you know that it will not last and that you will be separate and separated away from
it very soon when your soul comes out. So Nabi SallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam he said, make mention of
death in abundance at Pharaoh mean victory had the will that we're going to hammer home Allah they
		
00:01:24 --> 00:02:08
			say that the purpose the the wisdom and the benefit of remembering death in abundance. Three things
number one, a person he stuns to ADAMA, when you remember this your Eastern October, and a person
becomes pleased with Allah subhanahu Medina and a person finds energy to continue to worship Allah
subhanho wa Taala these are the benefits of continuously remembering death. When we come into a
cemetery. I remember the Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, in where he once he
said, Can I mean men can have Kubla Khan or Raj you don't monovision Juma there was a man much
before us of a narration is mentioned that he was from Benny slide. He came past a skull. Now a
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:55
			skull would be in a in a cemetery. He went into a cemetery and he saw a skull on the ground for
Nevada, la. He looked at the scope, photography in FCW shape, he remembered something within himself
as sin transgression between him and Allah subhanho wa Taala is remembering his reflecting. And so
another sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he says about this man, this moment is standing he's looking at
the skull. He said Allah Houma and or Anna Anna, and allow word to be more aware to be Zulu. He said
Allah, you are who you are. Yeah, it is Allah, Allah azza wa jal is the great the superior of the
mighty. Well, Anna Anna and I am the sleeve, the weak, the ignorant sleeve, the humbled sleeve,
		
00:02:56 --> 00:03:42
			until our word will morphia you are the one who continuously forgives over and over and over again,
while anilao were to be vulnerable, and I am the one who continuously turns to the sin over and over
and over. Then he has to say he did. He went into Suzhou for Allah subhanho wa Taala and he heard a
voice saying to him, Eero fow, suck and allow were to be vulnerable and allow were to build on
filler, raise your head. I indeed, am the one who continuously forgives, and you're the one who is
the one that continuously returns to the sin. So he raised his head from the floor from his sujood
for Horfield Allah and Allah azza wa jal forgive him. And when I'm out here, Muhammad Allah took
		
00:03:42 --> 00:04:23
			from the Hadith that a visit, a visit to the graveyard. And a moment of reflection between you and
yourself, could be a reason for why you're forgiven from your sins. It could be a reason for why you
are forgiven from your sins and transgression and rebellion against Allah subhanahu wa taala. This
is what happened to this man, my brothers and sisters in Islam. This is the result of death when you
remember death, and you come to the cemetery. It results in forgiveness. It shouldn't result in you
being depressed and worried and anxious. This is an enjoyable moment in where you're seeking the
forgiveness of Allah subhanahu wa taala when you remember this, and you remember your shortcomings
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:55
			with Allah subhanho wa taala. As a matter of fact, the best moments in the life of a believer are
his final moments on Earth. As an abyssal Allahu alayhi wa sallam says that when the believer is
approaching death, he is given good news which she'll have believed when he left he will karate he
is given good news of the pleasure of Allah subhanho wa Taala upon him. So then in the be sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam he said that this believing servant that is dying, or how bad Should I have met?
Mmm hmm. He becomes
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			passionate for that which is before him, which is
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:45
			Meeting Allah subhanho wa Taala and meeting what Allah azza wa jal has set for him of reward for
humbly Allah for Allah Allah Who Luca, when he is the good news from the angel, even at this moment
loves the meeting with Allah and Allah loves to meet him servant when the visa Allahu alayhi wa
sallam and I ended with this when he was dying. He mentioned to names of the names of Allah
subhanahu wata, and anyone that is anxious and worried and afraid of death needs to reflect over
these two names of Allah subhanho wa Taala these are the names that Allah says. Allah Allahu alayhi
wa sallam mentioned at the time of his death, when he said, Bella rafiqul Allah, Bella rafiqul
		
00:05:45 --> 00:06:26
			Allah, and in another narration as he was dying sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said Allahumma
fieldly Will hammy one hit me the rafiqul Allah, he mentioned the name of Allah Allah Fie, and his
name Allah Allah. There is difference of opinion as to what a rafiqul Allah refers to an imam nawawi
Rahim Allah. He said that Allah rafiqul Allah is Allah Himself is Allah subhanahu wa taala as in
every sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was dying, he was saying Bella rafiqul earlier meaning I choose
Allah over this worldly life and I am prepared to go and meet Allah subhanahu wa dyal. Look at these
two names. I don't know if it comes from the word that if which means compassion, and gentleness,
		
00:06:26 --> 00:07:11
			mercy and care, and nobody sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is remembering Allah's name that refers to
compassion and gentleness and mercy, because this is what Allah subhanho wa Taala does with the
believer, as he is dying. So it's like this worldly life is full of evil and corruption and
hypocrisy and transgression. And I am ready to go to Rafiq to the one who is full of mercy and
compassion and gentleness and his name and Allah, Allah azza wa jal the Most High. So what that
means is that this worldly life is it was called dunya. Many Dehner something that is inferior,
something that is belittle Allah subhanho wa Taala is Allah as though I am leaving this dunya I am
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:42
			leaving that which is inferior, that which is low, and I am going to Allah Allah to the highest
subhanho wa taala. So remember these names of Allah azza wa jal and it comforts the person whenever
he remembers the topic of death, we ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to grant us a good ending. And we
ask Allah subhanahu wa taala to forgive the debt around us here and to forgive the debt of the
Muslims all around the world in a whole new vertical called La wa sallahu wa salam ala delicata you
know, Muhammad wa ala alihi wa sahbihi as much
