AI: Summary ©
As for the topic and brothers and sisters,
the Prophet
told us,
The month has come to you, and in
it is a day that is better than
a 1000 months.
Whoever is prevented
this night, he has been prevented of all
good.
And no one is actually prevented it except
an individual had been prevented of all goodness.
Brothers and sisters, I wanna address a type
of mentality.
Alai Wa'hu Wa, this type of mentality,
I'm only going to practice,
or inshaAllah ta'ala, I'm going to fix up
when we come to the month of Ramadan.
And now when the month of Ramadan comes,
the whispers are still there.
The day that is better than 84 years,
that is equal to a 1000 months.
Yesterday also we mentioned,
we went to see some of our prophets
and say, oh, but something very, very similar.
Most of us, we know an individual called
Ibn Majah.
When we mentioned the Qutb as Sittag,
that if Nurmagir Rahim Muhammadu Ta'ala,
he passed away 8 days before the end
of Ramadan.
8 days.
So having this kind of mentality,
I'm only going to do whatever I'm going
to do on the day of
What makes you think that you might even
reach
the latest of Allah?
Most of us, and I mentioned this before
as well, Muhammad Ali. Right?
How many days before the month of Ramadan
did he die? 2 days before the month
of Ramadan.
Do you think it's crossed the law of
people's minds
of the Angel of Death taking your hook?
Just maybe 2 days for the hunt of
the Lord. Everyone's planning.
Everyone is planning. Everyone's getting ready for the
month of Ramadan.
Everyone's in that Ramadan
mode.
Prepare mentally and physically. We're ready to start
the month of Ramadan.
The food is bought. Everything that is required
inside the house is bought.
But then the Angel of death came and
he took him.
Allah tells
us,
is going to take you unexpectedly.
So for us gay 2, complacent brothers and
sisters,
it's a type mentality that is havoc,
destructive.
You know brothers and sisters, we have 2
kinds of people.
This is normally when the planning for each
possible.
You have the type of individual
who uses the Ramadan as a stepping stone.
Why? Because the prophet said,
And the shayateen have been locked up.
The shayateen have been locked up.
There is many opportunities of this, especially in
the month of Ramadan. Imam Skyhaya.
Everyone around. You see the brothers and sisters,
all of them coming to the masjid
reciting the book of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
And they learn it amongst themselves,
and the rahman is coming down,
mercy is coming down, the malaikas surrounding them.
This happens around the month of Ramadan. So
the iman goes sky high
and the person he wants to use this
month in order to change and become a
better Muslim.
But then you have the other type of
individual brothers and sisters.
And I'm telling you this, as someone who
came from a jahiliyah,
especially when aid is coming up,
on days like this, on nights like this
when the the youngsters, the youth have gone
to them and said, and they're together.
This is when the planning starts. What cars
we're going to rent?
The hotels? Who we're going to meet? What
part we're going to do?
Why did you stop in the month of
Ramadan, but then you're going to carry on
after the month of Ramadan?
We are in the month of forgiveness and
then we waste it.
The days are coming on us.
Allah talks about these kind of people, brothers
and sisters.
Whoever now turns away from my remembrance, turns
away from my Quran,
this person we are going to give him
a depressive life.
And then he says,
You Allah, why have you called me?
You knew you have to stay away from
a girlfriend. You knew you have to stay
away from shisha. You knew you have to
stay from all of these haramats.
There's a difference between a person that knows
and the one that doesn't know.
So prophet insisted on Allah, we have a
blessing.
If we are still breathing,
after this
we have been blessed.
So we need to be like those that
the prophet Muhammad alayhi was mentioned.
When you wake up in the morning, don't
wait for the night. You're going to say,
don't wait for the morning.
Being in this dunya and think you're a
stranger or someone that's just
crossing a
path.
So in a simple terms
terms,
be on your toes, as they say.
Be on your toes. When you're training, who
who did it take to you? Be on
your toes. Right? You don't have to keep
going. Keep jogging.
That's how it meant to be. On our
toes.
Expecting anything to come our way.
This very moment in time, are you ready
to meet Allah, Dua jen, and your soul
must
be
taken?
Brothers and sisters,
Laylatul kadr.
There's numerous hadith of the Prophet
that talk about laylatul kadr.
He told us in a hadith,
search for the Laylatul Qadr in the last
10 days.
Then the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam told
us another hadith that restricts it even more.
Look for it in the last 10 days.
If a person gets lazy
or he becomes weak, then don't let the
last 10 days sorry,
slip away from him.
So you've been restricted. Right? You have 10,
and then it's been
restricted to how it's 7.
That's not hadith. From inshallah wa'alehi wa'alehi wa'alehi
wa'alehi said,
And this hadith
tells us how
this whole issue of Laylatul Qadr came about
and what happened to it. How come we
don't know exactly when it is?
And perhaps this is better for you.
Search for it
on 9th, 29th,
27th, and 25th.
This dispute goes and you see it all
the time, brothers and sisters,
especially
in the Masajid, outside the Masajid. When is
it going to be, Nourish today?
Imagine we knew what labor toqadr would be.
And I don't think
the rest of the Muslims,
they would take the last 10 days as
serious.
Because we see today,
you find on 27th,
the Masjid Amor passed out.
You find on the 23rd, everyone was fine.
But now it's part of 27th.
And the next day dies out.
You know what the scholars say in regards
to all of this to just
summarize it.
Worship Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala on every day
of the last 10 days as a minister
to Tala.
The Prophet
He used to strike in the Ibadan in
the last 10 days while no other day.
He will bring the night to life.
He would wake up his family
and he was tied.
In Samadhi they call it, and
I think in Pakistan they call it.
He would tie it, beat him in tow
with a badat.
His family,
he worshiping Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
Every day he would worship Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala
as if it was related to khadar.
This is why someone has called as they
mentioned,
even small things that we might not look
in such a great way,
Every single night
of the last 10 days,
if £10 is a lot for you, pay
£5.
Is a lot for you, pay £3. £2
is a lot, pay £5.
Every single night. But you're going to miss
going to be it's definitely one of these
nights. Right?
So whatever night it ends up being, you
pay that charity with sincerity, with the you've
done it properly being the
Allah accept it with
you get the reward of paying a pound
for 84 years.
Recite Quran on every single day.
Try and do something good every single day.
Even if it is something small, brother says
no, but it's in it.
Smiling your brother's face.
Try and attain every single day, brothers and
sisters.
Every single day.
It's the day of Tawba.
These 10 days, brothers and sisters,
it's incumbent
that we try for the best of our
ability
to constantly ask Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala for
Tawbah.
What shall I do? What shall I read?
He told her hadith, Udua
Allahu'ma'innaqa'afawal
to help
So you tend to hear it a lot
when it comes to the Quran of the
imam who's leading the prayer.
You know, brothers and sisters,
there is something that universally every single person
falls into. Every single person.
Every single person. He can be the biggest
chef in the world, he can be the
smallest guy, the biggest fajr. Something
that we are all bound to do is
make
mistakes. Full
But that which most people don't do and
it's not in the DNA of many,
is the next part of the hadith. 1st
off,
Seek my forgiveness so I can forgive you.
You know what someone has said, brothers and
sisters?
Before they went to sleep,
they will constantly reflect.
What did I do the whole day?
Okay. I did this. I said this to
this this guy. I took this step. This
move that I made, They would
evaluate
our directions of the whole day just before
they go to sleep.
And then they will say, staghfirullah.
They make towards Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala constantly.
When's the last time, brothers and sisters,
especially in the kind of environment that we're
living in today?
An environment of fitan, baraya,
fawajesh, fasad.
You step outside,
in the summer, you find the angry woman.
They're naked and not naked at the same
time.
And today they're reaching a limit where
read between the lines.
You go to work, they're speaking of all
sorts of filth.
Your colleagues, your workers, those who are working
around you, they're discussing what they done last
night or what they done on Friday night.
When party went to the crowd, we did
this, we saw it
So everything that we hear,
what we see, you walk left, you walk
right, you walk in front of you, you
walk behind you, you find also a standard
for
Did we even think to
just maybe go back to Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala and just,
you know,
make tawba to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. It's
not rocket science, promises. It doesn't require a
lot. It doesn't require a lot of effort.
It's the
far. If the promise follow Allah and it
was a diminishing
in a city, he will send to Allah
as of 70 times.
70 times, probably.
And sometimes he gave us some narrations a
100 times.
Where do we stand?
He was standing so much, brothers and sisters,
that his feet will become red.
I should say to him, you Rasulullah,
your path and your future is gonna be
forgiven.
Why you do this to yourself?
Why you do this to yourself? Where do
you stand brothers and sisters?
Where do we stand
with this narration of the prophet sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam?
And guess what, brothers? The last time we
came, we spoke about Euro 2016. Right?
Just the bottle is about to get tasty.
The quarter finals
are clashing with
later
tomorrow or the last 10 days.
So you have a choice.
People might say, okay, but the game's at
8 o'clock. We're fully aware of Kurt De
Vez. It's at 8 o'clock. Right?
Yeah. That's going to be only for 1
and a half hours.
Then I'm going to go create Huawei later.
Most of you are aware how some people
are very, very addicted.
England. I've lived in England all my life.
I've got British passports.
I'm supporting England.
England's in our hearts.
Hayat,
we love them so much.
Why was there a day they lose?
Allah is going to affect us.
I used to be a former former Arsenal
squad.
When I used to live in London, I
even played with the Haile one time.
I used to live right next to it.
When they lose the effect of it,
tear it off me, you know, getting small.
It's affected by this.
Very very staunch.
And it will have an effect on a
person's
I'll give you a part of an example.
Yeah.
What happens
if
bad to him. It's evil to him. He
done something or he says something to him.
He's going to come home, and it's going
to affect the rest of his family. Right?
The people around him they're going to see
this person is affected.
People think I only need to
bring myself to the masjid and pray.
In the last 10 days,
wallahi
requires emotional preparation,
mental preparation,
that you put yourself in the right,
state of mind.
Before and
after.
Remember,
brothers
and
sisters,
You are interacting in the road.
The last thing you wanna be thinking about
is an overhead kick goal that was scored
from outside the box that everybody went, wow,
wow.
Could we go to the tournament? Some of
you might be no no one's speaking about.
Everyone's thinking about it. You go into your
salat, okay, my team lost, it's affecting me.
Haya, that goal, that team.
That's the last thing you want to follow
is this is for your mind to be
absent after you brought your body present
inside the Masjid you are praying and your
mind's not there.
Don't think that everyone when Jama prays and
when Mohammed prays or
and you only got 1 tenth of the
reward or 1 20th
or 1 30th or 1 50th.
People are all different. Do you think that
the guy who's thinking about Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala trying to be
in the best, in the best mode, concentrating,
his mind's present, and the guy who's thinking
about football throughout the whole playoffs and see.
Or thinking about all his wands for good.
Or
Or when a person here plays all the
sunnah.
Like for example, I'll give an example, brothers.
After they record or before they record or
after the second
of
a ayat. But it's something that the prophet
used to do. Highly recommended. Carry your dam
in aiha. He is the one that he
do it.
The one that
does it, can you say that the the
reward is equal? Of course not.
He put some stone into application
that the other one didn't do.
So people are not equal promises when it
comes to this.
Another thing that you tend to find
seeing Prophetess Allah is a lot of shahana,
baddaba, you know, pastoral issues,
pass along differences,
all pathetic things.
Over pathetic things.
Brothers and sisters,
we tend to find a lot of
time, especially when a person's going out to
Hajj. Right?
Or just about when Ramadan is about to
start, everyone sends text messages,
everyone sends text messages, Akhiba I ever have
oppressed you.
And he knows he's oppressed that person.
Generally like that.
Don't forgive me.
As if there's a specific
reward
or there's a specification
of asking the people for forgiveness
just before Hajj.
You've been oppressing someone. You've took up someone's
money.
Just to send a general text like that,
you backbited someone, you've slander someone, you mistook
his son.
The prophet sallallahu alaihi was telling brothers and
sisters, he told us
Whoever has oppressed any any of his brothers,
spoken about the honor,
let him seek forgiveness today.
Let this person do it today.
The evil deeds, the sins of the person
you backbite in, he will put in your
back. Just imagine brothers and sisters. Yeah? When
in 2016,
you died in 2017,
you get resurrected when you want the yama.
Someone comes, he takes your heart and
the yam.
The lay little qadr that you've been aspiring
to get.
The fasting that you will do throughout the
whole month. 17
hours of tiredness, of.
Someone comes and just takes it from you.
That's one
hash that you've done. Hash is why it's
upon a person once in a lifetime. Right?
That one hash that you've done.
Hey. Another person you spoke about, you come
to take it.
The fact that you got in 2010,
all them good deeds in 2012 is going
to get taken from you.
It's something brothers and sisters
that Allah of us find difficult to do,
and I'll tell you why.
We're scared of what that person is going
to say to us. Why you be back
by the dean? Who cares what he's going
to think?
If he begins to think things about you,
you've done your You've fallen into his feet,
you're bound to do that.
Whatever he wants to think, that's unto him.
Explain to him, I'm very very sorry. I
made a mistake. When the eyes make a
mistake, but when we're more concerned
about what he may think of us,
then that which Allah
is going to think of us.
As the As
the prophet told us,
Too little, too late.
There's no pattern. He's going to stand in
front of Allah
There's no translator
between you and him.
He looks on his left, he sees what
he what he done.
He looks in front of him for I
am not.
Free your souls, providence, assistant.
You have 10 days remaining. Seek forgiveness from
Allah
Let it be a warning to myself and
a warning to my brothers and sisters
to get
rid of what we may have said about
other people.
We forget what we said in the morning,
brothers. Every little word that
The sahabar is one of my brothers and
sisters
before the month of Ramadan started
we may not be aware of this adar
but before the month of
And now which we just mentioned, Roman says
that I'm going to conclude with this Insha'Allah,
And this came to my mind and I
think it's important that we mention it.
That is more specific to women.
Guys, when we think
yes, my wife's sitting on the other side
of the message, she's gonna get
it.
The Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, he told us
The Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam he said,
I will show nafaya and the majority of
those nafaya are women.
They are ungrateful to the husband. Kufr is
of 2 types from us.
The kufr that we all know about and
the kufr which means ungratefulness.
Be ungrateful.
Why?
If you speak good to her for the
whole year,
she sees one little thing from you, I
was the enemy from you.
You don't spend any time with me. You
never take me out.
Pay attention brothers and sisters especially.
A lot of these indefinite are used in
a negative context.
Never don't.
You never spend any time with me. Even
though they wanna mean it,
but it's a very big statement.
I understand this before someone has a personal
agenda against me. No. Did my shirk say,
I prophet, salamu alayhi, who said it.
When very, very inconsiderate
or heinous about these statements,
You never spent any time with me. You
never done any good deed to me.
You never take me out.
You never do this. You never do that.
When she knows herself, you do do that.
Why is it such a big deal?
Some of my say, okay, they don't mean
it. I will mean it
As they take, I don't mean it.
1st, it's a form of dul.
It's a big piece of oppression that you're
oppressing the husband with.
And that you're required now to seek forgiveness.
And also because the Prophet Sallallahu alaihi wa
sallam told us
does it she he does it or she
does in any consideration, and
it's most common way.
And what happens because of this one word,
fayahuwibihi
fiyanari jahanmasubayahuwifan.
Because of this one word that she never
gave any care to or he never gave
any care to
gets trapped into her fight for 70 years.
That's just one way, right? You never spent
any time with me. When the reality of
the matter is that she did.
So we ask Allah
to benefit us from what we heard.
And again, brothers and sisters, I apologize
for being late. What time is this far?
Yeah?
28.
You know, better than this time.
And inshallah, if any, you know,
no.
Oh, no.
Good.
As an opportunity to get together
by me and lots of people.
My friend is doing Iftikar so I'm doing
the Iftikar as
all. Firstly, your attention. Why are you doing
Why were you fasting?
You know this hadith problem you had time
and time again, maybe a 1,000,000,000 times,
Ain't no action is accepted for me except
the correct intention.
Why you need to cut off?
That's the first question you should ask yourself.
Look at this heavy brother and sisters.
When a servant now is placed in his
grave
and those who came to drop him off,
they begin to go. They leave him. He
begins to hear the movement of the shoes
or the sandals.
2 angels come to him, and they say
to him, what did he use to say
about this? Messenger.
You know, he's gonna say,
And
then after he'll say,
why are we doing Iftikar? Any action that
we do,
whether we're fasting, whether we're doing Hajj, because
everyone else is doing it, or because maybe
my family is doing it,
Ask yourself.
When I plan in Iqtaqah brothers and sisters,
and I try to I'll find a lot
of problems with this, it's to designate a
time where
you
are
by
yourself.
You, yourself, and I'm supposed to say I
but yourself again.
You're by yourself,
you're pondering, you're doing your istighfar, thinking about
Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, making du'a,
making du'a, you yourself and yourself.
You can easily get caught brothers and sisters
with some of the chucking that's taking place
in the side of the biscuit
and then they'll wait in your tikar and
you waste the last 10 days,
the most important days of Ramadan.
If you could seclude yourself, brothers and sisters,
be far away from everyone else. You can
check to your master. Check to me,
I'm still here,
Remember, like we mentioned before, Rabbi said, you
might not get this 10 days again.
Quran.
Why you're not tikaf?
If you have money, pay Salatah. Every single
day, try Salatah.
Salatah. Busy yourself in circles of knowledge.
Basically, sharing nonsense.
Or the one say, sharing bop.
You're talking nonsense.
Speak good or keep silent.
So these four things I mentioned, brothers and
sisters,
specify a time of the day.
Go by yourself.
Sometimes the person, he wants to get away
from his wife. Right? Or he wants to
get away from his sisters.
Haydani comes to the religion. He has people
around him. Haydani, but he tried to get
away from his family, though. You know how
to not be distracted.
You've got all the distraction here, and do
not feel shy to tell your close friends,
yeah, how are you? We're talking.
Leave me alone.
Let me worship Allah
Let me have this alone time with Allah
Just sitting there, doing a stand far, thinking
about
Allah make him
have 17 hours, Walaiah, we're blessed.
We are more blessed than those in Saudi
Arabia and other people. Where is this blessing?
We have 17 hours to ask for life
wherever we need.
We have all sorts of problems, brothers and
sisters.
We have issues in life,
marital problems.
Some of our brothers and sisters they are
on the sharia.
They are walking around on the road doing
after all sorts of mischief.
We are ill. We have health problems. It's
a big opportunity. People think only at the
time of Ustaa, that's when your dua has
been accepted. That, that's 1.
The prophet
said, You're
in Iftikar. You're in a good place.
Hopefully, the malaric are there as well because
of the
Yeah.
I was dealing with the
because I see brothers a year and year
up, a lot of people waste the.
They wanna get away from the destruction, they
end up getting to another destruction.
So please,
brothers and sisters, and again, I repeat, we
might not get another Ramadan.
If no Majid didn't get a little color,
remember,
Muhammad Ali didn't get a Ramadan.
Firstly,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said Allah
even though it's all that form of as
well as say, just basically go away from
it anyway, even though a person might have
been sinning, and the eye says,
the flesh of his brother. Now I'm just
talking about a believer.
Okay? But then, you know,
if someone's basically talking about something that happened
without mentioning name, then,
there's no issue with it. And
Very nice. It's translated into English as well,
InshaAllah Wa Ta'ala. It'll take a long time
explaining it, but the person was through exactly
what ziva is, the meaning of ziva, when
ziva is allowed. Because they have the whole
chapter, bad magnitude of the liberty,
There's books that have been written about hot
softness and things like that.
And also
to read the
stories of the Salaf,
To read the story of the salaf, how
they used to be when they came to
maybe dealing with their families, how they used
to be in the month of Ramadan, how
they used to perform the hajj, how they
used to pray.
You see? So,
now these are ways and likewise reading the
Quran, understanding the Quran, coming upon the Quran.
He mentioned a very powerful statement. He said,
that if the Quran
doesn't soften your heart in this dunya,
then certainly
in the akhirah,
you'll be you'll feel the shaking of the
like that. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala time and
time again he tells in the Quran
that the
that the Quran is the main
source of
purification and also suffering your heart, understanding it.
How Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala destroyed all these
nations and how they, you know, the Anbiya,
they were all very, very patient upon them.
So the Quran is the main source. And
he finds the books of
I suppose.
I
forgot
the title of it, but there's books of
Raqqai that specifically speak about how softness try
to purify your heart, especially books of Ibn
Taym Rahim Allahu Ta'ala. Ibn Taym Rahim Allahu
Ta'ala has many books.
They call him the doctor of the heart.
Nam,
with some of his books that he has
purifies the heart and it's all from the
Quran and the Sunnah. It's all from the
Quran and the Sunnah.
Say, inshallah.
Like as in
like seeking knowledge.
That knows the jobs really, really well. Nayan,
that's been working. Maybe he's been spending times
in the morning, working in the morning, sometimes
working in the evening. Because you find, brother
and sister, and this is what I can
tell you from also how the salat used
to be.
The barakah is in the morning.
It's something that's been tried. It's seen as
though the is in the morning.
Okay. If that period is from after fajr
and after the door goes, you find that
it's more difficult for a person to study
or even
memorize or do anything after that.
They used to dedicate a lot of time
to memorization in the morning.
Always before them, they used to have a
saydula, sleep maybe for an hour or 2
and then carry on after that.
So maybe your person has a part time
job in the night. He's working from
5 to 9,
5 to 11, 5 to 12. That might
be. Or maybe it's best to ask Allah,
our brothers, who may work.
But the morning, is that the time should
be dedicated for
That's the best time. And that's when the
memorization goes in the zone.
Now in the soul, as they say, to
memorize in the morning. To memorize in the
morning, that's when the mindset is precious. No.
InshaAllah.
Assalamu alayhi, brothers and sisters for listening very,
very attentively
We optimize, we maximize,
and we don't waste it, and we don't
fall under the hadith, brothers and sisters, when
the prophet said,
May the nose of that person be dragged
on the floor. It's an expression that accused.
You've been given something and then you waste
it.
That when Ramadan reaches him,
