Brothers and sisters in Islam, there is an

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

absolutely

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

incredible

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

deal that Nabi teaches

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

us. It requires from you minimum effort and

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

there is huge reward in return.

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

Nabi Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam taught us that the

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

one who fasts Ramadan

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

and then he follows it up with 6

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

days of Shawwal,

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

then Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala will give him

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

the reward

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

as though he has fasted the entire year.

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

What a deal, this is from the name

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

of Allah azza wa jal, and

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

aren't we believers

00:00:37 --> 00:00:39

Haven't we gotten used to the generosity of

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

Allah

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

Allah

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

extended our lives and allowed us to witness

00:00:43 --> 00:00:44

Ramadan

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

and then he allowed us to witness the

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

little Qadr which the worship in it was

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

better than a 1000 months of worship

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

and Allah

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

generosity continues upon us with this beautiful opportunity

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

that is ahead of us 6 days of

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

Shawwal

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

that's all you need to fast any day

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

of this month fast them

00:01:03 --> 00:01:06

with Ramadan and you earn the reward of

00:01:06 --> 00:01:08

fasting an entire year even though you will

00:01:08 --> 00:01:09

not fast the entire

00:01:10 --> 00:01:13

year imagine 4 months 5 months from now

00:01:13 --> 00:01:15

on a day you're eating and you remember

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

that

00:01:16 --> 00:01:19

I have received the reward of fasting this

00:01:19 --> 00:01:22

day because I did 6 days of Shawwal

00:01:22 --> 00:01:25

after Ramadan. We ask Allah azza wa Jal

00:01:25 --> 00:01:27

to grant us the ability that we're able

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

to fast these days. We're in need of

00:01:29 --> 00:01:30

fasting these days because

00:01:31 --> 00:01:32

these days of Shawwal

00:01:32 --> 00:01:35

are like the sunnah after the fard and

00:01:35 --> 00:01:37

it's always a principle that the sunnah after

00:01:37 --> 00:01:39

the fard, what does it do? What's his

00:01:39 --> 00:01:40

primary

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

role?

00:01:41 --> 00:01:43

It patches up and it cleans up the

00:01:43 --> 00:01:46

shortcomings and the errors that took place in

00:01:46 --> 00:01:47

the Fardb

00:01:47 --> 00:01:50

So these 6 days will wipe away anything

00:01:50 --> 00:01:51

you did wrong

00:01:53 --> 00:01:55

and we also need them as a sign

00:01:55 --> 00:01:55

of acceptance

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

because in Ulla Raha'i, they said the sign

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

of an accepted Ramadan

00:02:01 --> 00:02:03

is to follow it up with good deeds.

00:02:03 --> 00:02:05

So if you followed up your Ramadan

00:02:05 --> 00:02:07

with fasting 6 days of Shawwal,

00:02:07 --> 00:02:10

that's a good sign that ramadan was accepted

00:02:10 --> 00:02:12

from you, we ask Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala

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

to allow us to fast them, ask Allah

00:02:14 --> 00:02:16

to accept our deeds to forgive our sins

00:02:16 --> 00:02:17

and shortcomings.
