Brothers and my sisters, let us contemplate on
that blind man who came to the Messenger
The blind man my brothers and my sisters
that came to the Messenger
Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, This man says to
This
man says to the messenger sallallahu alaihi wa
sallam, I do not have anyone who can
take me to the masjid. I'm a blind
man. Look at me.
The messenger sallallahu alaihi wa
Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallallahu Alaihi
wa Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallallahu
Alaihi wa Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallallahu Alaihi wa
Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallallahu Alaihi
wa Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallallahu Alaihi wa Sallam
called him, he said, come and he asked
him the question,
Can you hear the azaan? Can you hear
the azaan? He said, No.
He told him to answer the call of
prayer. This is a blind man my brothers
and my sisters. A blind man who was
told to answer the call of prayer. Where
do me and you stand? These blessings that
we have that we might not necessarily
see much of it. Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
can take it away in a heartbeat.
If Allah will, He would have taken away
their hearing and their seeing, their sight. Indeed,
Allah is
capable of all things. A year and a
half or so ago, I saw a video
of a crippled paralyzed
child who every
single salah calls to the mitzvah and was
going viral all over Twitter, and people were
commenting
feeling so sorry for that child. You know
my brothers and my sisters, I tried to
count the amount of seconds that it takes
him to get up, 11 seconds it takes
him to get up from the ground, crawls
to the masjid, when he enters into the
masjid, 11 seconds it takes him to stand
up from the ground, and then walks towards
the early sufuh, the front rows, and then
he prays and then he goes home again.
This is the kind of effort that some
people are making to go to the Masjid.
Where do me and you stand? Messenger Sallallahu
Alaihi Wasallam, he says in another hadith,
to do the adhan, and then someone leads
the people in prayer.
And then after I've appointed an imam to
lead the people in congregation, I go to
the home of those who don't attend the
masjid, and I burn their home. This is
the messenger salallahu alaihi wa sallam. It crossed
his mind to carry this out. And then
the messenger salallahu alaihi wa sallam swears by
Allah, and he says,
by the one
whom my soul is in
his
hand.
If
one knew my brothers and my sisters that
in the Masj, they would distribute they would
distribute.
What is this? It is a very tender
type of meat, a bone that has tender
type of meat on it. All the other,
you know, the meats that we don't eat
are removed from it. Umir ma'atein ihasanatein. The
meat that is between the ribs has to
be distributed in the masjid, everybody would go
there. But like we say it in our
masjid, how packed the masjid becomes because
there is a walima in the masjid. And
this is my brothers and my sisters for
what? Some meats in order to fill our
stomachs that were going to defecate out in
into the toilet with all these reward that
we get for just coming to the house
of Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala.
