Bismillah, walhamdulillahirabbilahalamin

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

brothers and sisters in Islam, this is a

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

message

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

to these many Muslims that

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

are fasting, they observe the fasting of Ramadan,

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

but they do not pray. SubhanAllah.

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

They are fasting from food and drink

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

and intimate relations, and they are also fasting

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

from a salat,

00:00:21--> 00:00:23

and this is not something that is pleasing

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

to Allah a zwajal. We must fear Allah

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

a zwajal brothers and sisters in

00:00:28--> 00:00:32

Islam. Assalat is more important than fasting.

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

It is more important than all the deeds

00:00:35--> 00:00:36

that we know in Islam.

00:00:37--> 00:00:38

This is why it was the 2nd pillar

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

in Islam.

00:00:40--> 00:00:41

The one who fasts

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

and does not pray is like the one

00:00:44--> 00:00:45

who prays without Wudu.

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

His Wudu, his Salat is invalid, it is

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

not correct, and it is not accepted.

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

We need to fear Allah, Subhanahu

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

Llah that you are fasting, Alhamdulillah.

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

But make this fasting of yours

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

motivate you to establish a salat during your

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

life and to never abandon it.

00:01:05--> 00:01:08

Brothers and sisters in Islam, the first matter

00:01:08--> 00:01:10

that we are questioned about on the day

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

of judgment is our salat.

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

As the Messenger mentioned,

00:01:20--> 00:01:22

That's the first thing you'll be questioned about

00:01:22--> 00:01:24

your 5 daily prayers.

00:01:24--> 00:01:25

If

00:01:27--> 00:01:29

it was correct and it was in shape

00:01:30--> 00:01:31

and it was maintained

00:01:31--> 00:01:33

and you prayed on time

00:01:33--> 00:01:36

then all your deeds will be accepted and

00:01:36--> 00:01:38

they will all be good with their flaws

00:01:38--> 00:01:39

and their shortcomings.

00:01:40--> 00:01:41

And if a salat fasadasay

00:01:43--> 00:01:43

o amari,

00:01:44--> 00:01:45

if your salat

00:01:45--> 00:01:47

is neglected and it comes on the day

00:01:47--> 00:01:48

of judgment corrupt,

00:01:49--> 00:01:51

you don't have anything, you haven't established it

00:01:51--> 00:01:53

well, you did not look after it, then

00:01:53--> 00:01:56

all your deeds, no matter how perfect they

00:01:56--> 00:01:59

are, your fasting your sadaqa your Hajj your

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

Quran

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

all your deeds no matter how good they

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

are

00:02:04--> 00:02:06

will all be rejected and will all be

00:02:06--> 00:02:08

corrupted as well. So it is not worth

00:02:08--> 00:02:10

it that you skip a salat.

00:02:11--> 00:02:13

Brothers and sisters in Islam, let us take

00:02:13--> 00:02:16

the opportunity in this blessed month of Ramadan

00:02:16--> 00:02:19

to become serious in our salat, to become

00:02:19--> 00:02:20

committed upon a salat.

00:02:21--> 00:02:23

And it's very easy, just like you fast

00:02:23--> 00:02:24

for Allah,

00:02:24--> 00:02:25

you're establishing

00:02:25--> 00:02:28

a salat for the same Lord Subhanahu Wa

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

Ta'ala.

00:02:29--> 00:02:30

So we ask Allah

00:02:30--> 00:02:32

to make us of those who establish

00:02:33--> 00:02:34

a salat in their life. There are only

00:02:34--> 00:02:35

5 prayers.

00:02:36--> 00:02:38

Remember, they used to be 50 prayers. Then

00:02:38--> 00:02:39

Allah

00:02:39--> 00:02:41

reduced it to 5 prayers,

00:02:41--> 00:02:43

and he gave us the reward of 50

00:02:43--> 00:02:46

prayers when we pray 5 prayers, Allahu Akbar,

00:02:46--> 00:02:47

May Allah Azzawajal grant us forgiveness and acceptance.

00:02:46--> 00:02:47

May Allah Azzawajal grant us forgiveness and acceptance.
