Of commitments.

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

One of the things that we could really

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

try to do in these last few days

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

is not sleep throughout the night.

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

The second

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

point,

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

to aid and assist our

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

family members in doing the righteous deeds.

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

And both of these points, they were mentioned

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

in hadith. Aisha

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

she said,

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

The hadith is in Bukharian Muslim. That when

00:00:31 --> 00:00:34

the last 10 days entered, the Prophet

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

he would tighten his belt, figurative speech.

00:00:39 --> 00:00:42

Or maybe in Somali terms, he would tighten

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

his Ma'awis.

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

Some other scholars, they mentioned that he would

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

up his game in the last 10 days.

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

Some of them they mentioned that

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

he would leave his wives to the side.

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

He was trying to busy himself with these

00:00:57 --> 00:00:59

and he would also encourage his family members

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

to stand up in this

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

last few days. Also you have the hadith

00:01:03 --> 00:01:04

of

00:01:14 --> 00:01:14

when the prophet

00:01:16 --> 00:01:17

prayed with them

00:01:17 --> 00:01:19

on the 23rd night, and also on the

00:01:19 --> 00:01:20

25th night,

00:01:21 --> 00:01:22

on 27th,

00:01:23 --> 00:01:24

he called out his family

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

and he woke up his wives to pray

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28

on this day.

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

Specifically on this day. So some of the

00:01:33 --> 00:01:35

scholars they looked at this and they said,

00:01:35 --> 00:01:36

it

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

is most hope that on this night it

00:01:39 --> 00:01:41

is most likely to be later to Qadr,

00:01:41 --> 00:01:42

on this night.

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

And also you have the hadith, the narration

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

of

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

It was mentioned that the laylatul kadr is

00:01:55 --> 00:01:58

on his 27th night. But again brothers and

00:01:58 --> 00:02:00

sisters, there's other narrations that

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

some scholars they feel that it could have

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

been more on the 23rd and 25th.

00:02:04 --> 00:02:05

So in order to get out of all

00:02:05 --> 00:02:06

this and

00:02:07 --> 00:02:08

the disputation

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

and to, you know, argue with one another,

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

especially in the last 10 days of when

00:02:12 --> 00:02:13

it will be,

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

is to really strive on every single day.

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

Just to get out of his khilaf

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

because even in the Hajar al Asqalani, after

00:02:23 --> 00:02:26

mentioning this generation, in Buluqal Maram, you will

00:02:26 --> 00:02:27

find he said,

00:02:31 --> 00:02:32

I'm late to have the

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

scholars have differed

00:02:35 --> 00:02:37

with over 40 views

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

of when laylatul kadr could exactly be.

00:02:40 --> 00:02:42

So this is the scholars.

00:02:42 --> 00:02:43

This is the scholars,

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

the people of knowledge, those who dedicated their

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

lives

00:02:47 --> 00:02:48

with ilm,

00:02:48 --> 00:02:51

who differed and they have different views

00:02:51 --> 00:02:53

on one latest of other could be. This

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

is why I always say to the brothers

00:02:55 --> 00:02:57

and sisters in Muhammad,

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

you'll find that in America they will say

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

to, okay, we have morning.

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

In the other side of the world we

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

have an evening, we have a night.

00:03:05 --> 00:03:08

So if it's 23 over there, then it's

00:03:08 --> 00:03:10

24 here. When will later be?

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

This is a some of the

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

questions that gets posed.

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

This is why the scholars, they say a

00:03:17 --> 00:03:20

person, he strives on every single day of

00:03:20 --> 00:03:22

the last 10 days. But he ups his

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

game even more because you find the prophet

00:03:24 --> 00:03:26

sallallahu alaihi wasallam he said,

00:03:40 --> 00:03:41

Try to look for in the last 10

00:03:41 --> 00:03:45

days. Whoever becomes lazy, whoever becomes weak, then

00:03:45 --> 00:03:47

don't let the last 7 days slip away

00:03:47 --> 00:03:49

from him. Then another hadith,

00:03:52 --> 00:03:53

Try to search for it in the odd

00:03:53 --> 00:03:56

nights of the last 10 days. So they

00:03:56 --> 00:03:57

said the last 10 days, you up your

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

game.

00:03:58 --> 00:04:00

You get to the last 7 even more,

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

you even get better

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

and stronger in your ibadat.

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

Then you get to the organized and even

00:04:06 --> 00:04:07

bigger and stronger.

00:04:08 --> 00:04:11

Just so you don't end up missing out.

00:04:12 --> 00:04:13

Also, you find brothers and sisters, as I

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

mentioned,

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

these are the days when we try to

00:04:16 --> 00:04:17

burn ourselves out.

00:04:18 --> 00:04:19

If we have the ability and we don't

00:04:19 --> 00:04:22

have other commitments that prevent us from this,

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

that we don't sleep, the night is very

00:04:23 --> 00:04:24

very short.

00:04:25 --> 00:04:27

You have the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam

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

who, as Allah tells them,

00:04:37 --> 00:04:39

His past and his future sins, they were

00:04:39 --> 00:04:41

forgiven. He was walking on the face of

00:04:41 --> 00:04:44

this earth knowing he was guaranteed a jannah.

00:04:45 --> 00:04:47

And that he doesn't have any sins.

00:04:48 --> 00:04:50

And on top of that, look how he

00:04:50 --> 00:04:51

would burn himself out

00:04:51 --> 00:04:53

to such an extent where ayesha would say,

00:04:53 --> 00:04:55

why are you doing this to yourself?

00:04:55 --> 00:04:58

His feet have become so swollen when Allah

00:04:58 --> 00:05:00

has forgiven your past and future sins. He

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

will

00:05:02 --> 00:05:04

say, shall I not be a thankful slave?

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

A very thankful one because shukur

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

there's a difference between saying shakir and shakur.

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

It's like saying the sometimes,

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

we call an individual
