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

Brothers and sisters in Islam,

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

I want to share with you something about

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

a sujood prostration

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

and I hope this

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

completely changes your life

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

and it changes your attitude about Suzhou.

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

We all know

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

that the position we are most closest to

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

Allah Azojal

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

is in sujood in prostration.

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

As the messenger Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam informed us.

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

And

00:00:32--> 00:00:34

we are praying at least 17 rakat a

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

day, that's the 4th.

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

Every Raka' contains 2 Sujood,

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

so bare minimum

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

we are making 34

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

Sujood every single day.

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

Let's say we spent 10 seconds per Sujood.

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

I don't believe that's the majority of us.

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

People are making Sujood way less than that,

00:00:55--> 00:00:56

but let's just

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

say that every sujood you've spent 10 seconds.

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

That would equal

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

to a total of approximately

00:01:05--> 00:01:06

6 minutes per day,

00:01:07--> 00:01:08

from 24 hours

00:01:09--> 00:01:10

only 6 minutes

00:01:11--> 00:01:12

was spent

00:01:12--> 00:01:15

in the most beloved deed to Allah

00:01:16--> 00:01:18

in a deed that brings you the most

00:01:18--> 00:01:19

closest to Allah

00:01:23--> 00:01:25

Now imagine you prayed for an entire

00:01:25--> 00:01:26

year 365

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

days, and you only prayed the fard and

00:01:29--> 00:01:31

you only made the fort sujood

00:01:32--> 00:01:33

and each one 10 seconds.

00:01:34--> 00:01:36

You would have made a total of 1.5

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

days of sujood

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

out of

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

365 days,

00:01:42--> 00:01:44

1 and a half days in sujood

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

and if you prayed 60 years of your

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

life

00:01:48--> 00:01:49

you would have made

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

75

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

days of them in Suzut.

00:01:53--> 00:01:54

So that's

00:01:54--> 00:01:55

0.3%

00:01:56--> 00:01:57

of your life

00:01:58--> 00:01:59

spent in sujood,

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

the closest you would have been ever

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

in this earth to Allah Azzojal.

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

Are you ready to meet Allah Azojal

00:02:08--> 00:02:09

with

00:02:09--> 00:02:10

0.3%

00:02:11--> 00:02:12

of your life spent

00:02:13--> 00:02:15

in the most beloved deed to him Subhanahu

00:02:15--> 00:02:16

wa ta'ala.

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

I don't think we're ready and even let's

00:02:19--> 00:02:22

say we prayed double the amount of Alaka'at

00:02:23--> 00:02:25

we usually pray in a day. So instead

00:02:25--> 00:02:27

of praying 17, which is the fard, you

00:02:27--> 00:02:28

add it to this,

00:02:29--> 00:02:31

a sunan and so on. Even then

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

You would only

00:02:33--> 00:02:35

make about less than 1%

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

of your life spent in sujood.

00:02:38--> 00:02:40

So what is the solution brothers and sisters

00:02:40--> 00:02:43

in Islam? What is the solution? I give

00:02:43--> 00:02:44

you a solution.

00:02:45--> 00:02:46

Allah Azzawajal, he said,

00:02:52--> 00:02:53

Allah

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

says from the night

00:02:56--> 00:02:58

make sujood for him,

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

prostrate to him.

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

And so

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

the night

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

is

00:03:04--> 00:03:06

the time of the day

00:03:07--> 00:03:08

in where we have an opportunity

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

to increase

00:03:11--> 00:03:13

and to fall in love

00:03:13--> 00:03:15

with this act of worship

00:03:16--> 00:03:17

that Allah

00:03:18--> 00:03:18

loves

00:03:19--> 00:03:20

in the night.

00:03:21--> 00:03:22

Prolong your sujood.

00:03:22--> 00:03:24

This is the closest you'll ever be to

00:03:24--> 00:03:25

Allah.

00:03:28--> 00:03:29

Meet Allah Azawajal

00:03:29--> 00:03:31

Having spent a lot of your life

00:03:32--> 00:03:33

in sujood

00:03:34--> 00:03:34

so that

00:03:35--> 00:03:38

Allah saves you from the horrors and the

00:03:38--> 00:03:39

terrors of that day

00:03:39--> 00:03:40

on the day of judgment

00:03:42--> 00:03:42

sujood

00:03:43--> 00:03:45

This is something that we were doing

00:03:45--> 00:03:46

throughout Ramadan

00:03:46--> 00:03:49

in the night prayers, and we got used

00:03:49--> 00:03:49

to it.

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

So now

00:03:51--> 00:03:52

Carry on that momentum,

00:03:53--> 00:03:54

keep going.

00:03:54--> 00:03:55

With sujood

00:03:55--> 00:03:56

is going to be

00:03:57--> 00:03:58

a life changer.

00:03:59--> 00:03:59

Allah

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

says about

00:04:10--> 00:04:12

They had a brightness on their face.

00:04:13--> 00:04:14

They had

00:04:14--> 00:04:16

radiance on their face.

00:04:16--> 00:04:19

From the effects of a sujood Allah said

00:04:20--> 00:04:22

a sujood is going to instill happiness in

00:04:22--> 00:04:23

your life.

00:04:23--> 00:04:26

It's going to bring goodness and success in

00:04:26--> 00:04:28

your life by the permission of Allah

00:04:29--> 00:04:31

You're going to be calm and tranquil,

00:04:32--> 00:04:34

because the one who spends a long time

00:04:34--> 00:04:34

in sujood

00:04:35--> 00:04:36

knows his Lord,

00:04:36--> 00:04:37

knows Allah

00:04:38--> 00:04:40

as opposed to the one who pecks the

00:04:40--> 00:04:41

ground,

00:04:41--> 00:04:42

pecks the ground

00:04:43--> 00:04:44

goes into sujood

00:04:44--> 00:04:47

before his head is down. It's already up

00:04:47--> 00:04:49

This is a person that does not know

00:04:49--> 00:04:50

Allah

00:04:51--> 00:04:52

the one who knows Allah

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

will spend

00:04:55--> 00:04:57

many minutes in a sujood.

00:04:57--> 00:05:00

So start this, start this practice

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

before you sleep pray 2 raka'at

00:05:03--> 00:05:04

and in every sujood

00:05:04--> 00:05:06

spend 2 3 minutes

00:05:06--> 00:05:08

and gradually build build and increase.

00:05:09--> 00:05:11

And you'll know what I'm talking about. You'll

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

reach a stage

00:05:12--> 00:05:13

in your life

00:05:13--> 00:05:15

where you will not need this advice anymore.

00:05:16--> 00:05:18

A sujood becomes a part of you. It

00:05:18--> 00:05:19

becomes an identity.

00:05:19--> 00:05:22

It becomes something you cannot sleep without doing.

00:05:22--> 00:05:24

and accept from us. Allahu Alam,

00:05:22--> 00:05:24

and accept from us. Allahu Alam,
