00:00:00 --> 00:00:00
			Aliflamim.
		
00:00:02 --> 00:00:04
			Its first position is where the first 1
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:06
			is in the beginning of the Quran, Surat
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:07
			Al Baqarah.
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:09
			What does it mean?
		
00:00:09 --> 00:00:11
			Does anyone know what it means?
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:13
			Allahu Anam. That's the answer.
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:14
			Consensus
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:17
			among the entire Ummah of Islam, no 1
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:18
			knows what
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:20
			it means. And no 1 will ever know
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:22
			what it means in this worldly life. They're
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:24
			gonna ask you a question. When you read
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:25
			Aliflamim,
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:29
			do you worship Allah by reading that and
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:32
			expect 30 hasanat from Allah? 10 for every
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:33
			letter? Yes. Yeah.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:35
			So there you go.
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:38
			There is a moment in life
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:40
			in which you are worshiping Allah
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42
			by reading something.
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			You got no clue what it means.
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:47
			Yet you submit and you read it as
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			Quran and you're worshiping Allah.
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:50
			And that
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			is training your heart
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:55
			to submit to a command of Allah, even
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			if you got no clue
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:00
			of the wisdom and the reason behind it.
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			It is enough for you to know that
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:03
			every commandment
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:05
			that is in the Quran and in the
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			sunnah came from Al Hakim
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:08
			Al Aleem.
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:12
			They're all knowledgeable, they're all wise. And so
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:15
			that means that every commandment and every prohibition
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			must be full of knowledge and full of
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:17
			wisdom.
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:21
			You see in 1 Quran Al Hakim. Al
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			Quran is full of wisdom in its laws
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:26
			and prohibitions and everything that he say. The
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			human being is weak. The human being is
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:29
			intellectually
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:30
			deficient.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:32
			The human being is incomplete.
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:34
			Allah
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:35
			is
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:36
			complete.
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:37
			Allah
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:38
			is perfect
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			and everything that comes from Allah is complete
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:41
			and perfect.
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:45
			Why would you think an incomplete human being
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			wants to challenge
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:49
			a complete being
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:50
			in that which he legislated?
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:53
			Abi Allah. Abi Allah, this is a sickness.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:55
			This is a sickness. This is an arrogant
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:57
			human being. This is why when Iblis
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			And he was the first 1
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:03
			to neglect the first command of Allah,
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:05
			when Allah said to you make sujood to
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:06
			Adam,
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			Allah considered that kibr,
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:10
			arrogance.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:14
			Every commandment you turn away from is arrogance.
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:18
			Whether you like this word and being labeled
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:20
			with this word or not, that is the
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:20
			reality.
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:23
			So, Dhani Ali come and say,
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			That's all it is.
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:34
			And didn't Iblis have a justification with him?
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:35
			Saying,
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:37
			but now I am created from fire, he
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:40
			is created from clay. So let's let's assume
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:42
			let's assume fire is better than clay. So
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:43
			what?
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:46
			Allah commanded to make a sujda. That's not
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:48
			about who's better and what's better.
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:49
			It's about there's a commandment.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			Follow it. No justification,
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:55
			no reason, no complaint, no rubbish.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			So anyone, anyone
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:01
			who receives the Commandment of Allah
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			and says, I'm not ready for it. I'm
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:06
			not in the best situation for it. You
		
00:03:06 --> 00:03:07
			don't know what's happening in my life. You
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:09
			don't know the stress I'm going through. You
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:11
			don't know the difficulty and the calamity I'm
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:12
			going through.
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:15
			This is not the time 5. 1llahi
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:15
			arrogance.
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:20
			And you are only increasing your calamity upon
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:20
			calamity.
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:21
			Allah
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:26
			says
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:29
			Whenever they told
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:40
			Allah labeled their rejection with 1 word. He
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:41
			said,
		
00:03:44 --> 00:03:45
			They would arrogantly reject.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:48
			That's it. That's all it is.
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			So go on find a solution for yourself
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:53
			because that's the reality.
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:56
			As harsh as it may sound, that's Allah
		
00:03:56 --> 00:03:56
			mercy.
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:00
			Teaching us you're a human being owned by
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:00
			Allah.
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:04
			Allah knows you more than you know yourself.
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:06
			So don't give excuses to Allah.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:10
			Allah
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:12
			did not burden us more than what we
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:14
			can carry. You see all these commandments in
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:15
			the Quran, He
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:18
			every human being can fulfill them.
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:20
			No matter what your situation was, didn't I
		
00:04:20 --> 00:04:22
			give you the situation of Musa alaihis salam?
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:24
			He can consider that like the biggest calamity
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:25
			you're going through.
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:27
			Did he say, let my life, it's not
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			times now. What am I gonna obey now,
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:31
			Allah and take a stone and throw it
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:32
			and cast
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			a stuff onto those see, It's not time
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			for it. I'm in a huge calamity now.
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:38
			My life's on the line. Nothing
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:41
			will save you from your calamity other than
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			being Allah's command and rushing to it. We
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:44
			We ask Allah
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:47
			to instill within our hearts submission to him
