With His lofty names and His attributes

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

to make this a Ramadan that He accepts,

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

to all accept our tiyam,

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

our Siyam, and our

00:00:44 --> 00:00:45

Dua. We're still fasting.

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

Prophet

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

he said,

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

3 people won't have their dua rejected. And

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

one of those that was mentioned, al Sahihi

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

Hata Youssira. The person who's fasting until he

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

breaks. So while we're still fasting, we really

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

ask Allah

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

to accept our actions

00:01:03 --> 00:01:05

from us that we have been striving to

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

do in this month.

00:01:06 --> 00:01:08

We most most of us, you know, brothers

00:01:08 --> 00:01:10

and sisters, that instead of they used to

00:01:10 --> 00:01:12

ask Allah as a wujud for 6 months

00:01:12 --> 00:01:13

after the month of Ramadan

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16

to accept their righteous actions.

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

That they die in the month of Ramadan.

00:01:19 --> 00:01:21

And then the other 6 months, they would

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

ask Allah

00:01:24 --> 00:01:25

to give them the success to be able

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

to reach Thee following Ramadan.

00:01:28 --> 00:01:30

You know, brothers and sisters, when

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

Abu Bakr

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

when the Prophet

00:01:34 --> 00:01:35

passed away,

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

Abu Bakr

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

he

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

went on the mimbar,

00:01:40 --> 00:01:42

and he mentioned a very, very powerful statement.

00:01:43 --> 00:01:43

He said,

00:01:52 --> 00:01:54

Whoever used to worship Muhammad

00:01:55 --> 00:01:56

Sallallahu Alaihi

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

Wasallam,

00:01:57 --> 00:01:58

then indeed

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

the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam has passed away.

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

But whoever used to worship

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala,

00:02:06 --> 00:02:09

then Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala still lives, and

00:02:09 --> 00:02:11

he doesn't pass away.

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

I say to you brothers and sisters,

00:02:14 --> 00:02:15

whoever

00:02:15 --> 00:02:17

used to worship Ramadan,

00:02:18 --> 00:02:20

then Ramadan has departed us.

00:02:22 --> 00:02:24

For that which remains is Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:02:24 --> 00:02:25

Ta'ala.

00:02:27 --> 00:02:30

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala still remains. He doesn't

00:02:30 --> 00:02:32

pass away. He is still there as a

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

Samir and Basir

00:02:33 --> 00:02:34

to be worshipped

00:02:36 --> 00:02:37

because we are in need of worshiping Allah

00:02:37 --> 00:02:40

Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Allah subhanahu doesn't need our

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

Ibadat.

00:02:41 --> 00:02:43

Today you find that the trend has become

00:02:44 --> 00:02:45

in the month of Ramadan,

00:02:46 --> 00:02:48

we worship Allah, we strive, we stay away

00:02:48 --> 00:02:50

from smoking, we stay away from girls, we

00:02:50 --> 00:02:53

stay away from all these, allam haramad, shisha,

00:02:53 --> 00:02:54

you name it.

00:02:54 --> 00:02:55

Drops,

00:02:55 --> 00:02:56

cigarettes.

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

But as soon as the Ramadan

00:02:58 --> 00:02:59

finishes,

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

we go back to our old filthy ways.

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

Some brothers message me right now

00:03:06 --> 00:03:08

saying that they wanted me to come down

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

to

00:03:08 --> 00:03:09

Southport

00:03:10 --> 00:03:13

because the streets are already packing up to

00:03:13 --> 00:03:14

do some street that were on the mic,

00:03:14 --> 00:03:16

to give a reminder to those brothers

00:03:17 --> 00:03:18

who today have decided

00:03:19 --> 00:03:21

to go back to the old ways. Everybody

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

is already playing music.

00:03:23 --> 00:03:26

The shee Shabaz are getting ready.

00:03:27 --> 00:03:29

Just because the Ramadan is coming to an

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

end.

00:03:30 --> 00:03:32

Do we really have to ask ourselves, do

00:03:32 --> 00:03:34

we just worship Ramadan or do we really

00:03:34 --> 00:03:37

worship Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala at the same

00:03:37 --> 00:03:37

time?

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

Then these brothers

00:03:39 --> 00:03:41

who use the month of Ramadan as a

00:03:41 --> 00:03:43

stepping stone, they want to get better.

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

But then the shaytang is the better of

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

them.

00:03:46 --> 00:03:48

They have that mentality where they want to

00:03:48 --> 00:03:48

continue.

00:03:49 --> 00:03:51

But some people they have that mentality

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

as soon

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

as the Ramadan finishes,

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

Khalas, they already booked the hotels.

00:03:59 --> 00:04:01

The hotels that they are going to be

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

going with, their girlfriends, their you know, all

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

these maha'lamah they plan to do on this

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

day.

00:04:08 --> 00:04:10

It's something very very common. You go to

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

Ezra Road

00:04:11 --> 00:04:12

in London.

00:04:12 --> 00:04:14

Somewhere that is very packed with Muslims

00:04:15 --> 00:04:17

smoking shisha and doing all kinds of mad

00:04:17 --> 00:04:19

stuff. Birmingham, they have that

00:04:20 --> 00:04:21

road. I forgot the road's name.

00:04:22 --> 00:04:24

Not Coventry Road. Apparently, they have another road.

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

Manchester, likewise. In Leicester also,

00:04:28 --> 00:04:31

at a time when everybody's fasting, you find

00:04:31 --> 00:04:33

that a shisha. Cafe is empty. There's a

00:04:33 --> 00:04:35

shisha cafe right on the main road in

00:04:35 --> 00:04:37

Lestar. You go past the water time. It's

00:04:37 --> 00:04:38

empty. It's called alfina.

00:04:41 --> 00:04:43

But as soon as everywhere breaks the fast,

00:04:43 --> 00:04:45

it starts becoming full again. Why are you

00:04:45 --> 00:04:46

smiling?

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

Are you from Lestat? Okay.

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

Esther?

00:04:55 --> 00:04:56

Okay. Brothers and sisters.

00:04:56 --> 00:04:58

We worship Allah

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

that 12 months of thee. Year.

00:05:01 --> 00:05:04

The Lord of Masha'Allah and Safarabia. Oh wait

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

until the end of the months.

00:05:07 --> 00:05:09

Ramadan is not the only month which we

00:05:09 --> 00:05:10

worship Allah

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

The Lord of all these months is still

00:05:13 --> 00:05:14

living.

00:05:15 --> 00:05:18

Continue your righteous actions. Ibn Aradhim

00:05:19 --> 00:05:21

he says from the signs, from the

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

of an accepted the Ramadan

00:05:24 --> 00:05:27

is that a person continues his righteous actions.

00:05:28 --> 00:05:30

If this month you stayed away from the

00:05:30 --> 00:05:31

Muharramat,

00:05:31 --> 00:05:33

carry on staying away from it after a

00:05:33 --> 00:05:34

month

00:05:34 --> 00:05:35

of Ramadan.

00:05:36 --> 00:05:38

You weren't able or you started wearing hijabs

00:05:38 --> 00:05:40

in the month of Ramadan, carry on wearing

00:05:40 --> 00:05:43

it. It's a sign. You stayed away from

00:05:43 --> 00:05:45

all these fa'ais, carry on. It's a sign

00:05:45 --> 00:05:46

that Allah

00:05:47 --> 00:05:48

accepted your Ramadan.

00:05:50 --> 00:05:51

Brothers and sisters, today inshallah

00:05:52 --> 00:05:54

what I want to speak about is

00:05:55 --> 00:05:56

Qiyam will lay

00:05:57 --> 00:05:58

the night prayer

00:05:59 --> 00:06:00

after the month of Ramadan.

00:06:12 --> 00:06:14

The most virtuous prayer

00:06:14 --> 00:06:17

after the obligatory prayers is the night prayer.

00:06:19 --> 00:06:21

We have been given a success

00:06:22 --> 00:06:23

to be able to stand in the night

00:06:23 --> 00:06:25

in this month, in the month of Ramadan.

00:06:26 --> 00:06:28

Brothers and sisters, if we are not engaging

00:06:29 --> 00:06:30

in that beautiful Ibadah

00:06:31 --> 00:06:33

of the night prayer outside the month of

00:06:33 --> 00:06:35

Ramadan, we are really missing out.

00:06:36 --> 00:06:38

We are really, really missing out.

00:06:39 --> 00:06:39

It's not

00:06:40 --> 00:06:41

that I say to you, if you don't

00:06:41 --> 00:06:43

do it, you're going to be sinful.

00:06:44 --> 00:06:47

But rather, the true reality is we are

00:06:47 --> 00:06:50

seriously missing out on that beauty

00:06:51 --> 00:06:53

that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:06:53 --> 00:06:54

has only

00:06:55 --> 00:06:57

given the tawfir to some people in this

00:06:57 --> 00:06:58

world.

00:06:59 --> 00:07:01

And sometimes to encourage an individual is by

00:07:01 --> 00:07:04

mentioning the virtues and the rewards that a

00:07:04 --> 00:07:05

person would attain

00:07:06 --> 00:07:08

through a certain act.

00:07:08 --> 00:07:10

Sometimes you find a parent, he might go

00:07:10 --> 00:07:12

to his child and tell him to pray,

00:07:12 --> 00:07:13

Come on,

00:07:13 --> 00:07:15

sir. And deals with him in a very

00:07:15 --> 00:07:16

rough and tough way when commanding him to

00:07:16 --> 00:07:17

do so.

00:07:18 --> 00:07:19

But he might not mention the reward

00:07:20 --> 00:07:22

and the virtues, or even

00:07:22 --> 00:07:24

the shali the way the shali,

00:07:25 --> 00:07:26

the painful threats,

00:07:26 --> 00:07:29

punishment that comes with leaving off, and speaking

00:07:29 --> 00:07:30

to them in a nice way.

00:07:31 --> 00:07:32

And this is exactly

00:07:33 --> 00:07:36

the methodology that Ibn Hajdul Asfir alaykum allahu

00:07:36 --> 00:07:38

ta'ala has spread it on

00:07:38 --> 00:07:40

when he authored his kitab. For

00:07:40 --> 00:07:43

anyone who has memorized it or studied it,

00:07:43 --> 00:07:44

intensity would know this.

00:07:45 --> 00:07:46

When you come to the chapter of Babu

00:07:46 --> 00:07:48

Surat at the Tawba,

00:07:48 --> 00:07:50

the chapter of the voluntary prayers,

00:07:51 --> 00:07:52

before he went into the different

00:07:54 --> 00:07:55

the different

00:07:55 --> 00:07:58

rulings pertaining to voluntary prayers when it comes

00:07:58 --> 00:08:00

to Allah's duhah, when it comes to the

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

the

00:08:02 --> 00:08:04

the one prays before the Duhr and after

00:08:04 --> 00:08:07

Duhr, before Maghrib and after Isha and before

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

Fijal.

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

He starts it off with one beautiful

00:08:16 --> 00:08:16

hadith.

00:08:30 --> 00:08:33

I ask you to be from those who

00:08:33 --> 00:08:34

accompany you in Jannah.

00:08:35 --> 00:08:36

So the prophet replied

00:08:37 --> 00:08:38

back and he said to him, okay, Naderik,

00:08:39 --> 00:08:40

is there anything else that you want?

00:08:42 --> 00:08:43

He

00:08:44 --> 00:08:44

said,

00:08:45 --> 00:08:46

that's what I want.

00:08:46 --> 00:08:49

So the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam told

00:08:49 --> 00:08:49

him

00:08:50 --> 00:08:51

how to be from those who are going

00:08:51 --> 00:08:54

to accompany the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:08:54 --> 00:08:55

in a journal.

00:08:56 --> 00:08:57

He said to

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

him,

00:09:01 --> 00:09:02

If you want to be from those who

00:09:02 --> 00:09:04

are accompanying in a Jannah, then be from

00:09:04 --> 00:09:06

those who has many frustrations.

00:09:07 --> 00:09:09

Someone who has many sujood.

00:09:10 --> 00:09:12

Someone who prays a lot.

00:09:13 --> 00:09:15

So if you wanna be from those being

00:09:15 --> 00:09:17

excessive in your.

00:09:18 --> 00:09:20

There's another beautiful hadith of the prophet

00:09:24 --> 00:09:26

upon you used to have many sujoods, many

00:09:26 --> 00:09:27

prostrations.

00:09:34 --> 00:09:35

There's not a time

00:09:36 --> 00:09:38

when you frustrate to Allah

00:09:39 --> 00:09:43

accept that He raises you in status, raises

00:09:43 --> 00:09:43

you around.

00:09:44 --> 00:09:46

So now you walk into the mistreat. Right?

00:09:47 --> 00:09:48

For those who

00:09:48 --> 00:09:50

believe that the hate of misty is wajid,

00:09:50 --> 00:09:52

I personally believe is wajid.

00:09:53 --> 00:09:53

Prophet

00:10:13 --> 00:10:15

the base ruling of a command is that

00:10:15 --> 00:10:17

it is worship and the prophet he commanded.

00:10:17 --> 00:10:18

Unless you have another proof that takes it

00:10:18 --> 00:10:21

down being worship, mister Ham. The point is,

00:10:22 --> 00:10:23

you walk into the messian, you feel a

00:10:23 --> 00:10:25

bit lazy or something. It might even prevent

00:10:25 --> 00:10:26

us from entering into the masjid

00:10:26 --> 00:10:28

because of the burden that we're looking all

00:10:28 --> 00:10:30

have to pray to rakat. Let me just

00:10:30 --> 00:10:31

stand outside.

00:10:32 --> 00:10:34

Rather remember these halay brothers and sisters, every

00:10:34 --> 00:10:36

session that you make,

00:10:37 --> 00:10:39

every rakat that you pray, you are being

00:10:39 --> 00:10:41

raised and everyone else

00:10:41 --> 00:10:43

is being left behind while you are being

00:10:43 --> 00:10:44

raised in rank.

00:10:46 --> 00:10:49

And it's a beautiful big reason as to

00:10:49 --> 00:10:50

why you're going to be from those who

00:10:50 --> 00:10:51

are accompanied upon

00:10:52 --> 00:10:54

So after hearing this to Hadith, brothers and

00:10:54 --> 00:10:55

sisters,

00:10:56 --> 00:10:59

will that now stop us from being lax,

00:10:59 --> 00:10:59

lazy,

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

and praying on the wafil?

00:11:02 --> 00:11:04

It could be that which becomes a real

00:11:04 --> 00:11:06

benefit for us in your Al Mu'tiyam.

00:11:06 --> 00:11:07

Here on this hadith.

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

This hadith of Yahya ibn Yama.

00:11:12 --> 00:11:14

He heard this from a companion.

00:11:15 --> 00:11:17

Companion was mentioned in hadith, and we know

00:11:17 --> 00:11:19

that all of the companions are ulul. So

00:11:19 --> 00:11:20

we need to ask, is he authentic? Is

00:11:20 --> 00:11:21

he not trustworthy? And so on and so

00:11:21 --> 00:11:22

forth.

00:11:23 --> 00:11:23

Prophet

00:11:28 --> 00:11:29

he said,

00:11:30 --> 00:11:31

The first

00:11:31 --> 00:11:33

thing that a person is going to be

00:11:33 --> 00:11:34

held to account for

00:11:35 --> 00:11:36

when the accountability starts

00:11:37 --> 00:11:38

is a saat.

00:11:39 --> 00:11:39

Prophet

00:11:45 --> 00:11:48

said, If his obligatory prayers were complete,

00:11:49 --> 00:11:50

that which is with the non Fani and

00:11:50 --> 00:11:51

that are completed,

00:11:52 --> 00:11:53

perfected his prayers.

00:11:56 --> 00:11:59

But if he never completed it, Allah says,

00:12:09 --> 00:12:11

Check for my servant. Does he have any

00:12:11 --> 00:12:13

voluntary prayers to complete

00:12:13 --> 00:12:14

his prayers for

00:12:15 --> 00:12:17

him? That's the beauty of the

00:12:19 --> 00:12:21

prayers. Narrated by Ahmed with a sound chain

00:12:21 --> 00:12:22

of narration.

00:12:23 --> 00:12:24

Brothers and sisters,

00:12:25 --> 00:12:26

the Nawafil

00:12:26 --> 00:12:28

generally speaking about the Nawafil,

00:12:29 --> 00:12:30

it is something

00:12:31 --> 00:12:32

that will make a difference.

00:12:33 --> 00:12:35

It's how it becomes different from other beings.

00:12:36 --> 00:12:38

You're already getting closer to Allah subhanahu wa

00:12:38 --> 00:12:39

ta'ala through the

00:12:39 --> 00:12:39

obligatory

00:12:42 --> 00:12:43

prayers.

00:12:47 --> 00:12:49

And a person will keep doing the nawafir

00:12:50 --> 00:12:51

and say Allah

00:12:57 --> 00:12:58

And then when I love him, I become

00:12:58 --> 00:13:01

the hearing that he hears with, the sight

00:13:01 --> 00:13:02

that he sees with.

00:13:03 --> 00:13:04

So brothers and

00:13:05 --> 00:13:07

sisters, the issue of Adakhiyaam al Layl. As

00:13:07 --> 00:13:10

I mentioned before, we are truly truly missing

00:13:10 --> 00:13:11

out.

00:13:11 --> 00:13:12

The issue of Adh Qiyam

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

is something special that Allah

00:13:15 --> 00:13:17

has blessed with just a couple of people

00:13:17 --> 00:13:18

in this world.

00:13:19 --> 00:13:20

The majority of the people are sleeping in

00:13:20 --> 00:13:23

the night. It's the most enjoyable part of

00:13:23 --> 00:13:24

the day as they say.

00:13:24 --> 00:13:26

The man, he rests at this time.

00:13:28 --> 00:13:28

The prophet

00:13:29 --> 00:13:30

told us in a hadith

00:13:31 --> 00:13:33

that was made by Tim Ndi

00:13:33 --> 00:13:36

and it was authenticated by Sheikh Al Bani.

00:13:37 --> 00:13:37

He said,

00:13:41 --> 00:13:43

upon you is to wake up

00:13:44 --> 00:13:46

at night and pray the night prayer.

00:13:52 --> 00:13:54

For indeed, this is the way of

00:13:55 --> 00:13:56

of those before you.

00:13:56 --> 00:13:57

It's the way

00:13:59 --> 00:13:59

of that

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

were there before you.

00:14:06 --> 00:14:09

It is also a means of getting closer

00:14:09 --> 00:14:09

to Allah

00:14:10 --> 00:14:13

and it also expats on sins.

00:14:17 --> 00:14:17

And it also

00:14:20 --> 00:14:22

assists the person of staying away from sins.

00:14:28 --> 00:14:29

And it also expels,

00:14:30 --> 00:14:30

removes

00:14:31 --> 00:14:32

the sicknesses

00:14:32 --> 00:14:34

that a person might have in his body.

00:14:34 --> 00:14:37

You've tried every medicine. You've tried to visit

00:14:37 --> 00:14:39

every country in the world. Mostly, they go

00:14:39 --> 00:14:41

to Germany. Right? Many of them, they come

00:14:41 --> 00:14:43

back. They weren't able to solve their problems,

00:14:43 --> 00:14:46

the sicknesses that they had. Go to America,

00:14:46 --> 00:14:47

likewise, they come.

00:14:48 --> 00:14:49

Some do but some don't.

00:14:50 --> 00:14:52

You've tried every medicine that you know, and

00:14:52 --> 00:14:54

you visited every doctor that you were able

00:14:54 --> 00:14:55

to visit,

00:14:56 --> 00:14:58

but nothing has changed.

00:14:59 --> 00:14:59

Try

00:15:04 --> 00:15:06

The prophet doesn't speak out of desires.

00:15:07 --> 00:15:09

So only revelation coming down.

00:15:13 --> 00:15:14

Try

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

this means that the prophet

00:15:17 --> 00:15:18

has told you about.

00:15:19 --> 00:15:21

You know, I remember the first benefit that

00:15:21 --> 00:15:24

I took from Sheikh Ibrahim Raheili. Muslims, you

00:15:24 --> 00:15:26

know, you know Sheikh we know Sheikh Ibrahim

00:15:26 --> 00:15:27

Raheili has come to Luksen a couple of

00:15:27 --> 00:15:28

times

00:15:28 --> 00:15:29

at the Prophet's Masjid.

00:15:31 --> 00:15:32

I remember the first thing that I took

00:15:32 --> 00:15:34

from him when I went there was,

00:15:34 --> 00:15:35

he said that

00:15:36 --> 00:15:37

if you wanna be from the best of

00:15:37 --> 00:15:39

the people, you have to try

00:15:39 --> 00:15:41

and imitate the best

00:15:41 --> 00:15:42

around.

00:15:43 --> 00:15:45

And if we look back in history,

00:15:47 --> 00:15:49

closely are those who were the best and

00:15:49 --> 00:15:51

hit great heights.

00:15:52 --> 00:15:54

They always had standards

00:15:56 --> 00:15:57

that they

00:15:57 --> 00:15:58

built on.

00:15:59 --> 00:16:00

You have the prophet

00:16:05 --> 00:16:07

never became the great scholar.

00:16:08 --> 00:16:10

And the greatness he achieved through piety,

00:16:12 --> 00:16:12

Muhammad,

00:16:13 --> 00:16:14

obedience,

00:16:14 --> 00:16:15

ta'a,

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

a man, except by trying to imitate whom?

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

Prophet

00:16:21 --> 00:16:22

This is why you find so many hadith

00:16:22 --> 00:16:23

narrations.

00:16:37 --> 00:16:39

The prophet exited and also

00:16:41 --> 00:16:43

Waqah Many narration you find that they have

00:16:43 --> 00:16:43

together,

00:16:45 --> 00:16:47

constantly, continuously try to be like him.

00:16:49 --> 00:16:51

The other example that he brings, he says,

00:16:51 --> 00:16:52

he always mentioned the three examples,

00:17:04 --> 00:17:05

Muhammad

00:17:18 --> 00:17:18

Who?

00:17:19 --> 00:17:20

Ibrahim Tayl.

00:17:21 --> 00:17:21

Ibrahim

00:17:22 --> 00:17:22

Tayl,

00:17:23 --> 00:17:24

what we know of him when he came

00:17:24 --> 00:17:26

to him, is something else.

00:17:26 --> 00:17:27

Exceptional,

00:17:28 --> 00:17:28

Immense.

00:17:28 --> 00:17:29

Ibrahim

00:17:29 --> 00:17:30

tried

00:17:30 --> 00:17:33

to be the best in his time. Imitate

00:17:33 --> 00:17:34

him as much as possible.

00:17:35 --> 00:17:37

And they hit great heights that many people

00:17:37 --> 00:17:39

in this time will struggle to even come

00:17:39 --> 00:17:40

anywhere close to it.

00:17:41 --> 00:17:43

I share you the brothers and sisters.

00:17:46 --> 00:17:48

The was the way of the salihim before

00:17:48 --> 00:17:48

us.

00:17:49 --> 00:17:50

In

00:17:50 --> 00:17:51

what is the person doing?

00:17:52 --> 00:17:53

You know, they say there's connections

00:17:54 --> 00:17:56

when you look at and There's

00:17:57 --> 00:17:59

many connections between the 2.

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

Was a judah?

00:18:04 --> 00:18:06

To not follow Abuja'al, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:18:06 --> 00:18:07

says to the Prophet

00:18:09 --> 00:18:12

was good, was straight, and also gained closeness

00:18:12 --> 00:18:12

to me.

00:18:13 --> 00:18:15

When a person is standing in the night,

00:18:16 --> 00:18:17

we already know

00:18:17 --> 00:18:18

that in

00:18:21 --> 00:18:22

the sujood,

00:18:23 --> 00:18:25

the closest that a servant comes to his

00:18:25 --> 00:18:26

Lord is when he's in his prayer.

00:18:27 --> 00:18:28

In his in his sujood, sorry, in his

00:18:28 --> 00:18:29

prostration.

00:18:29 --> 00:18:31

So you already came close.

00:18:32 --> 00:18:35

Now the hadith tells us the closest that

00:18:35 --> 00:18:37

or the time when Allah

00:18:37 --> 00:18:39

gets the closest to his servant.

00:18:47 --> 00:18:49

The closest that Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:18:50 --> 00:18:52

comes to His third is in the last

00:18:52 --> 00:18:53

part of the

00:18:55 --> 00:18:55

night.

00:18:56 --> 00:18:56

Prophet

00:18:57 --> 00:18:59

he said then after that,

00:19:05 --> 00:19:07

If you are able to be from those

00:19:07 --> 00:19:09

who stands up in this part of the

00:19:09 --> 00:19:11

night, then be it and do so.

00:19:13 --> 00:19:16

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala comes close to you.

00:19:16 --> 00:19:18

These people, they acted upon the hadith of

00:19:34 --> 00:19:36

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala comes down.

00:19:37 --> 00:19:38

Last 3rd of the night

00:19:39 --> 00:19:40

to the 7th heaven.

00:19:41 --> 00:19:42

Prophet Sallallahu Alaihi wa Salam mentioned this. I'm

00:19:42 --> 00:19:43

not taking this out of my own back

00:19:43 --> 00:19:44

pocket.

00:19:46 --> 00:19:47

And He says to those who are woken

00:19:47 --> 00:19:48

up,

00:19:50 --> 00:19:51

especially to those,

00:19:51 --> 00:19:53

because most people are sleeping.

00:19:54 --> 00:19:55

Who's going to

00:19:55 --> 00:19:57

invoke me so I can respond back to

00:19:57 --> 00:19:59

his dua? Who's going to ask me so

00:19:59 --> 00:20:00

I can give to him? Who's going to

00:20:00 --> 00:20:02

seek my forgiveness so I can forgive his

00:20:02 --> 00:20:02

sins?

00:20:03 --> 00:20:04

Says it.

00:20:05 --> 00:20:06

Go get him tomorrow. We're gonna go get.

00:20:06 --> 00:20:07

Right?

00:20:07 --> 00:20:09

Says the richest, one of the richest. Top

00:20:09 --> 00:20:10

3.

00:20:11 --> 00:20:13

That's currently walking on the face of this

00:20:13 --> 00:20:13

earth.

00:20:14 --> 00:20:17

And he said, whoever comes to me at

00:20:17 --> 00:20:18

3 in the morning 3 in the morning,

00:20:19 --> 00:20:21

every single person, I'm going to give him

00:20:21 --> 00:20:22

a couple of £1,000.

00:20:24 --> 00:20:26

The room that he's sitting in,

00:20:27 --> 00:20:28

the amount of people that are going to

00:20:28 --> 00:20:30

rush in there, the door is gonna get

00:20:30 --> 00:20:31

broken.

00:20:32 --> 00:20:34

Everyone is going to be rushing this home.

00:20:35 --> 00:20:36

This is Bill Gates, the creation.

00:20:37 --> 00:20:38

Because what?

00:20:39 --> 00:20:40

We can physically see the money that he

00:20:40 --> 00:20:44

has. We know where he's reached. Everybody's got

00:20:44 --> 00:20:46

Microsoft in his house, right? And every person,

00:20:46 --> 00:20:47

why is it? He gets making money out

00:20:47 --> 00:20:48

of it.

00:20:49 --> 00:20:50

So we genuinely believe

00:20:51 --> 00:20:53

that Bill Gates will

00:20:53 --> 00:20:54

give us that money.

00:20:55 --> 00:20:58

What about Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala? Will I

00:20:58 --> 00:20:59

build a system living in this country

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

makes us so detached from Allah and

00:21:04 --> 00:21:06

so connected to the creation.

00:21:08 --> 00:21:09

When you have all these freebies,

00:21:10 --> 00:21:11

free health,

00:21:11 --> 00:21:13

free money, you lose your job, you have

00:21:13 --> 00:21:14

JSA.

00:21:15 --> 00:21:18

A person never ever pull up, you become

00:21:18 --> 00:21:19

ill straight away. You can go to the

00:21:19 --> 00:21:20

GPS straight away.

00:21:21 --> 00:21:24

No one's thinking, don't take these means.

00:21:25 --> 00:21:27

And as bad that Allah has

00:21:27 --> 00:21:28

made halal for you.

00:21:29 --> 00:21:31

But what about when we

00:21:31 --> 00:21:33

could just easily

00:21:33 --> 00:21:34

turn to Allah

00:21:35 --> 00:21:35

straight away?

00:21:37 --> 00:21:39

The time we become sick, we put our

00:21:39 --> 00:21:40

hands up to Allah

00:21:42 --> 00:21:43

Or we wake up in that night, we

00:21:43 --> 00:21:45

turn to Allah first.

00:21:47 --> 00:21:48

That dua

00:21:48 --> 00:21:50

that we are able to make in the

00:21:50 --> 00:21:52

last part of the night. Imam Shadr

00:21:53 --> 00:21:55

said that a dua that a person makes

00:21:55 --> 00:21:56

in the last part of the night

00:21:57 --> 00:21:59

is like the arrow that hits his target

00:22:00 --> 00:22:00

doesn't miss.

00:22:02 --> 00:22:03

Try make that dua.

00:22:04 --> 00:22:06

And I'm making serious try anything you want

00:22:06 --> 00:22:07

with any

00:22:07 --> 00:22:09

thing they work from Allah

00:22:09 --> 00:22:12

and Allah throughout the night. I know brothers

00:22:12 --> 00:22:13

who say, there's not a time that I

00:22:13 --> 00:22:15

make dua except that Allah

00:22:16 --> 00:22:17

always accepts it.

00:22:18 --> 00:22:20

Ibrahim alayhi wa ta'ala has something similar to

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

this. He said, it's not a time that

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

our pastor has been given the opportunity to

00:22:24 --> 00:22:26

ask Allah except Allah wants to respond back

00:22:26 --> 00:22:26

to him.

00:22:27 --> 00:22:28

But most people, they don't make that to

00:22:28 --> 00:22:29

Allah

00:22:30 --> 00:22:31

Most people don't do that.

00:22:34 --> 00:22:36

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala mentioned in the Quran,

00:22:44 --> 00:22:46

Only some part of the night they used

00:22:46 --> 00:22:47

to see.

00:22:47 --> 00:22:50

And on their sides, they used to do

00:22:50 --> 00:22:50

istighfar.

00:22:51 --> 00:22:52

Hassan al Abbasid

00:22:55 --> 00:22:56

said,

00:22:57 --> 00:22:59

They strived hard in the night.

00:23:02 --> 00:23:03

And they stretched

00:23:04 --> 00:23:06

their prayers all the way to the time

00:23:06 --> 00:23:07

of Sahab, which is the last time of

00:23:07 --> 00:23:08

the night.

00:23:13 --> 00:23:14

Then they sat down,

00:23:15 --> 00:23:16

invoking Allah

00:23:18 --> 00:23:20

and seeking his repentance, and showing Allah

00:23:20 --> 00:23:22

that they are in need of him.

00:23:22 --> 00:23:24

Not being haughty about it.

00:23:25 --> 00:23:27

This was the way of the sali alayhi.

00:23:28 --> 00:23:30

Look at the lead that they are in.

00:23:30 --> 00:23:31

Look how they thought. Look what they strived

00:23:31 --> 00:23:32

for.

00:23:33 --> 00:23:36

Amin al Nasirah, I'll mention Hassan al Wasir

00:23:37 --> 00:23:38

used to stand in the night

00:23:41 --> 00:23:42

and beg Allah

00:23:42 --> 00:23:45

to forgive those who oppressed him.

00:23:47 --> 00:23:48

He would ask Allah

00:23:50 --> 00:23:50

O

00:23:55 --> 00:23:57

Allah, I ask you to forgive those who

00:23:57 --> 00:23:59

have oppressed me.

00:23:59 --> 00:24:01

So much so that someone came to me

00:24:01 --> 00:24:02

and he said to him, You Hassan,

00:24:03 --> 00:24:05

you know, I began to terminate and terminate

00:24:07 --> 00:24:08

I began to hold that I was from

00:24:08 --> 00:24:11

those who oppressed you. Why are you making

00:24:11 --> 00:24:13

so much dua? Because you're making so much

00:24:13 --> 00:24:14

dua at this best. I wish I was

00:24:14 --> 00:24:16

from those who end up, you know, getting

00:24:16 --> 00:24:18

your dua.

00:24:18 --> 00:24:20

He recited the statement of Allah.

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

Whoever pawns

00:24:26 --> 00:24:28

and rectifies, then his reward is with Allah

00:24:30 --> 00:24:31

Look at the league that these people are

00:24:31 --> 00:24:32

in.

00:24:33 --> 00:24:35

We know it's already very difficult to stand

00:24:35 --> 00:24:37

up in the night, and Hassan al Qasr

00:24:37 --> 00:24:38

goes out that way.

00:24:38 --> 00:24:41

It's great terabiyyah, the most tremendous of them,

00:24:41 --> 00:24:42

to really ask Allah

00:24:43 --> 00:24:44

to

00:24:44 --> 00:24:45

forgive

00:24:45 --> 00:24:47

those who oppressed them.

00:25:13 --> 00:25:15

Be patient on it. We don't ask you

00:25:15 --> 00:25:17

for any provision, but Allah will give it

00:25:17 --> 00:25:18

to you.

00:25:19 --> 00:25:20

You say one of the means that a

00:25:20 --> 00:25:22

person get an increase in his provision through

00:25:22 --> 00:25:23

salat.

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

Look what the prophet

00:25:43 --> 00:25:43

Prophet

00:25:44 --> 00:25:46

once in the middle of the night went

00:25:46 --> 00:25:47

to knock on their door,

00:25:48 --> 00:25:50

disturbed them at a time when

00:25:51 --> 00:25:52

the husband and the wife are having the

00:25:52 --> 00:25:53

most enjoyable

00:25:54 --> 00:25:55

time of the day,

00:25:55 --> 00:25:57

The time when they are resting.

00:25:59 --> 00:26:00

It's the time of peace.

00:26:01 --> 00:26:02

This is the time when they get down

00:26:02 --> 00:26:03

to business.

00:26:04 --> 00:26:06

He wants to be with his family, right?

00:26:06 --> 00:26:08

Throughout the day, everybody is busy

00:26:08 --> 00:26:09

trying to

00:26:09 --> 00:26:10

earn a living.

00:26:11 --> 00:26:13

Everyone's tired at that time, no one's then

00:26:13 --> 00:26:14

disturbing

00:26:14 --> 00:26:15

it. The Prophet

00:26:16 --> 00:26:17

goes and disturbs them.

00:26:17 --> 00:26:19

He says to him, Azza Sanliyah,

00:26:20 --> 00:26:22

aren't you going to be praying in the

00:26:22 --> 00:26:22

night?

00:26:29 --> 00:26:30

All souls are in the hand of Allah

00:26:31 --> 00:26:33

If Allah wishes will stand up, otherwise

00:26:36 --> 00:26:37

Prophet walked away

00:26:38 --> 00:26:40

and he started hitting his thighs.

00:26:41 --> 00:26:43

Started reciting the statement of Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:26:43 --> 00:26:44

Ta'ala.

00:26:57 --> 00:26:59

The virtue and the great reward

00:26:59 --> 00:27:01

that a person attains

00:27:01 --> 00:27:03

through the night prayer.

00:27:03 --> 00:27:05

He wouldn't have gone out his way in

00:27:05 --> 00:27:06

disturbing

00:27:07 --> 00:27:09

his son-in-law and his daughter Fatima At

00:27:09 --> 00:27:10

a time,

00:27:14 --> 00:27:15

Allah

00:27:15 --> 00:27:17

has chosen for his servants,

00:27:17 --> 00:27:20

his creation, a time to really rest.

00:27:22 --> 00:27:24

But the prophet knew the great reward that

00:27:24 --> 00:27:25

they were missing out on.

00:27:28 --> 00:27:29

This is why at this time he went

00:27:29 --> 00:27:30

to disturb them.

00:27:31 --> 00:27:32

You have the prophet

00:27:32 --> 00:27:33

also.

00:27:34 --> 00:27:35

We know the prophet

00:27:37 --> 00:27:39

past and future sins were forgiven. Right?

00:27:50 --> 00:27:51

He was praying so much

00:27:56 --> 00:27:58

and then his feet became so red and

00:27:58 --> 00:27:59

swollen.

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

Why are you doing mister Surah?

00:28:02 --> 00:28:04

Your past and your future sins have been

00:28:04 --> 00:28:05

forgiven.

00:28:05 --> 00:28:06

He says to her,

00:28:08 --> 00:28:10

shall I not be a thankful slave?

00:28:10 --> 00:28:12

This is the man, the prophet, who walked

00:28:12 --> 00:28:14

on the face of His

00:28:16 --> 00:28:17

past and his weaknesses were both forgiven.

00:28:18 --> 00:28:18

And

00:28:20 --> 00:28:22

on top of that, Kawhi's tying himself up,

00:28:22 --> 00:28:24

trying to show his gratitude,

00:28:25 --> 00:28:26

his thanks to

00:28:26 --> 00:28:27

Allah

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

at this time

00:28:29 --> 00:28:31

through the night prayer.

00:28:41 --> 00:28:43

Their sides draw away

00:28:44 --> 00:28:46

from their comfortable beds.

00:28:48 --> 00:28:50

They call on to Allah

00:28:52 --> 00:28:54

with hope and also fear.

00:28:57 --> 00:28:58

And from that which we

00:28:59 --> 00:29:01

have provided for them, blessed them with, they

00:29:01 --> 00:29:02

spent

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

out of it.

00:29:06 --> 00:29:08

1 doesn't know

00:29:08 --> 00:29:10

that which has been hidden for him.

00:29:12 --> 00:29:13

That which is going to bring utter joy

00:29:14 --> 00:29:15

to his heart.

00:29:18 --> 00:29:20

As a reward for that which they used

00:29:22 --> 00:29:23

to do.

00:29:35 --> 00:29:36

Allah

00:29:36 --> 00:29:38

He mentioned in a hadith ul say, I

00:29:38 --> 00:29:40

have prepared for my servants that which an

00:29:40 --> 00:29:41

eye has never seen,

00:29:42 --> 00:29:44

and the hearing has never heard, and a

00:29:44 --> 00:29:46

heart has never felt an experience.

00:29:47 --> 00:29:49

Let me recited this verse. That comes straight

00:29:49 --> 00:29:50

after the verse

00:29:51 --> 00:29:53

of those who are being praised that withdraw

00:29:54 --> 00:29:57

away from their comfortable beds, their sides draw

00:29:57 --> 00:29:57

away.

00:29:59 --> 00:30:01

Brothers, this is walaiah.

00:30:01 --> 00:30:03

If we are not praying this night outside

00:30:04 --> 00:30:05

the month of Ramadan, we are truly missing

00:30:05 --> 00:30:06

out.

00:30:07 --> 00:30:09

This month is set the scene for us.

00:30:10 --> 00:30:11

It really gave us the opportunity to do

00:30:11 --> 00:30:12

well

00:30:12 --> 00:30:13

and to

00:30:14 --> 00:30:15

have a habit. This is the month that

00:30:15 --> 00:30:18

they say it either makes or breaks habits.

00:30:18 --> 00:30:18

Right?

00:30:19 --> 00:30:21

Sister finds it able to wear the hijab

00:30:21 --> 00:30:22

after the month of Ramadan

00:30:23 --> 00:30:25

when she has been consistently doing it in

00:30:25 --> 00:30:28

this month. Why? Because this is the month

00:30:28 --> 00:30:29

where the scene has been set.

00:30:34 --> 00:30:36

The doors of Jannah have been swung open.

00:30:36 --> 00:30:39

The doors of have been snap shut, and

00:30:39 --> 00:30:41

the have been changed, shut.

00:30:42 --> 00:30:44

So it's easier for a person to leave

00:30:44 --> 00:30:47

a habit or to start doing new habits.

00:30:49 --> 00:30:51

And we have been able to do so

00:30:51 --> 00:30:53

in my prayer. We've been able to get

00:30:53 --> 00:30:54

used to Hasfir.

00:30:54 --> 00:30:55

If

00:30:55 --> 00:30:57

a person, our brothers and sisters,

00:30:58 --> 00:30:58

cannot

00:31:01 --> 00:31:02

wake up for the night prayer,

00:31:03 --> 00:31:04

then there's all the things that we could

00:31:04 --> 00:31:05

do that

00:31:05 --> 00:31:07

we shouldn't be missing out on.

00:31:08 --> 00:31:10

The next step that I wanted to say

00:31:10 --> 00:31:11

is

00:31:11 --> 00:31:13

the 2 are kahad before fajr.

00:31:13 --> 00:31:15

If you're missing out on the night prayer,

00:31:15 --> 00:31:17

you have been chosen to do so. Because

00:31:17 --> 00:31:20

all my brothers and sisters, I've realized I'm

00:31:20 --> 00:31:20

seeing this.

00:31:21 --> 00:31:23

It's a very common asked question to the

00:31:23 --> 00:31:26

as well as. Amen, he says, yeah, shayef.

00:31:26 --> 00:31:27

I want to be from those who wake

00:31:27 --> 00:31:29

up in the night. I can't. I'm trying

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

to, but I can't.

00:31:32 --> 00:31:34

Some people have, you know,

00:31:34 --> 00:31:36

these very loud alarm clocks. I'm not talking

00:31:36 --> 00:31:38

about the one in iPhone.

00:31:38 --> 00:31:40

That's very, very you know, the sound is

00:31:40 --> 00:31:41

very, very low.

00:31:42 --> 00:31:44

It's how you could buy one of these

00:31:44 --> 00:31:44

big ones.

00:31:45 --> 00:31:46

You will even wake up the neighbors.

00:31:48 --> 00:31:50

Some people have 2 of them, but they

00:31:50 --> 00:31:51

still can't wake up.

00:31:52 --> 00:31:53

Because brothers, this is like I said to

00:31:53 --> 00:31:55

you, there's only a few people in this

00:31:55 --> 00:31:57

world who have been given the opportunity to

00:31:57 --> 00:31:58

stand up in the night.

00:31:58 --> 00:31:59

It's

00:31:59 --> 00:32:00

Allah

00:32:02 --> 00:32:03

handpicks these people.

00:32:04 --> 00:32:07

And once you comprehend these virtues that I

00:32:07 --> 00:32:08

mentioned,

00:32:08 --> 00:32:11

I'm sure nobody here wants to now miss

00:32:11 --> 00:32:11

out

00:32:12 --> 00:32:15

because he was that as I mentioned in

00:32:15 --> 00:32:15

the hadith.

00:32:19 --> 00:32:21

It was the way of

00:32:21 --> 00:32:22

before us,

00:32:22 --> 00:32:24

and it expiates sins and we're getting close

00:32:24 --> 00:32:25

to Allah

00:32:25 --> 00:32:28

and it removes any sicknesses that a person

00:32:28 --> 00:32:29

might have. Whether it is the heart

00:32:30 --> 00:32:33

issues, sicknesses in his heart or sicknesses in

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

his body.

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

I'm

00:32:36 --> 00:32:37

going to leave after

00:32:37 --> 00:32:38

this.

00:32:39 --> 00:32:42

The gets asked all the time, I'm trying.

00:32:42 --> 00:32:43

I wanna wake up in.

00:32:46 --> 00:32:48

One of the means that they mentioned is

00:32:48 --> 00:32:51

that a person could be engaged in sins

00:32:52 --> 00:32:54

to leave off the sins in the mornings,

00:32:54 --> 00:32:56

in the daytime, and also in evenings.

00:32:57 --> 00:32:58

Good way to start to

00:32:59 --> 00:33:01

be able, by al Adaiq, and to really

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

ask Allah

00:33:03 --> 00:33:04

I mean, I believe

00:33:06 --> 00:33:07

so many a few people that wake up

00:33:07 --> 00:33:08

in the night.

00:33:10 --> 00:33:12

Second thing that I wanted to mention, brother

00:33:12 --> 00:33:13

and sister, at least,

00:33:13 --> 00:33:14

we can't

00:33:14 --> 00:33:15

wake up for to

00:33:16 --> 00:33:17

engage in another

00:33:18 --> 00:33:20

prayer that comes at the end of the

00:33:20 --> 00:33:20

night.

00:33:30 --> 00:33:33

There wasn't a prayer that the prophet

00:33:33 --> 00:33:34

prayed so continuously.

00:33:58 --> 00:33:58

It.

00:34:20 --> 00:34:21

Or he became tired,

00:34:21 --> 00:34:24

he became sick, the prophet would pray sitting

00:34:24 --> 00:34:24

down.

00:34:25 --> 00:34:28

These prayers that I mentioned, brothers, you can't

00:34:28 --> 00:34:30

pray standing up, pray pray sitting down.

00:34:32 --> 00:34:33

There's 2 prayers that the prophets never ever

00:34:33 --> 00:34:35

left off. It was the night prayer

00:34:36 --> 00:34:38

and also the Al Qaeda fajr

00:34:38 --> 00:34:39

even

00:34:39 --> 00:34:40

while traveling.

00:34:40 --> 00:34:42

These were 2 prayers that he never left

00:34:42 --> 00:34:43

off.

00:34:48 --> 00:34:51

Which takes approximately maybe 2 minutes

00:34:51 --> 00:34:54

or just a little bit more to pray.

00:34:55 --> 00:34:55

As Aisha

00:35:07 --> 00:35:07

The 2

00:35:08 --> 00:35:10

before fajr, just such an external thing to

00:35:10 --> 00:35:10

myself,

00:35:11 --> 00:35:12

did you only read?

00:35:12 --> 00:35:14

Did you only read the fajihat?

00:35:15 --> 00:35:17

You can't pray standing up for whatever reason,

00:35:17 --> 00:35:18

pray sitting down.

00:35:19 --> 00:35:21

Try to pray sitting down.

00:35:22 --> 00:35:24

He never ever left an orphan.

00:35:25 --> 00:35:27

And Aisha is advising, 'Abdu'l Bani, let me

00:35:27 --> 00:35:28

face this.'

00:35:29 --> 00:35:31

because brothers and sisters, you find how many

00:35:31 --> 00:35:34

people we have in this world who their

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

ultimate

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

objective in life is to buy a house

00:35:38 --> 00:35:39

in this dunya.

00:35:40 --> 00:35:43

And it's Hidarik. Some people even go to

00:35:43 --> 00:35:44

an extent

00:35:44 --> 00:35:45

of

00:35:47 --> 00:35:48

Mortgages.

00:35:49 --> 00:35:51

They are ready to go and wage war

00:35:51 --> 00:35:53

with Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:35:55 --> 00:35:56

Turn, attain that house.

00:35:59 --> 00:36:00

Or someone who's just there, you know, their

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

main objective in life, I'm going to try

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

whatever

00:36:03 --> 00:36:05

I can to get the house. Whether it's

00:36:05 --> 00:36:07

through Haramis, through Haramis, it doesn't matter. It's

00:36:07 --> 00:36:09

a bad might even get affected, but his

00:36:09 --> 00:36:11

main objective in life might even get the

00:36:11 --> 00:36:11

house.

00:36:39 --> 00:36:41

In the day and also in the night,

00:36:43 --> 00:36:45

then I guarantee this individual a house and

00:36:45 --> 00:36:45

a jannah.

00:36:46 --> 00:36:49

That's the 2 before fajal, the 4 before

00:36:49 --> 00:36:51

duhr, the 2 of the door, the 2

00:36:51 --> 00:36:54

of the maghrib, and the 2 after Isha.

00:36:55 --> 00:36:56

These 2

00:36:57 --> 00:36:59

are. Toning is easy.

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

Sometimes you pray all the way, but you

00:37:02 --> 00:37:03

end up missing one. Oh, you remember, oh,

00:37:03 --> 00:37:04

I missed that. I

00:37:04 --> 00:37:05

missed that on a house.

00:37:06 --> 00:37:08

This is why there's such a great reward.

00:37:10 --> 00:37:11

Before.

00:37:12 --> 00:37:13

Person might be able to do the others,

00:37:14 --> 00:37:16

but then, you know, it gets very tight.

00:37:17 --> 00:37:19

Or now the door 1 is most hard.

00:37:19 --> 00:37:20

Why? Because people are working.

00:37:21 --> 00:37:22

We only get maybe 5 minutes to go

00:37:22 --> 00:37:24

and pray our prayers, so we miss out

00:37:24 --> 00:37:25

on the 4th.

00:37:25 --> 00:37:27

And then 2 after that is all.

00:37:29 --> 00:37:30

Is this might be a and

00:37:30 --> 00:37:31

Isha.

00:37:34 --> 00:37:36

If we then also miss out on this

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

fader, there's something else that I could mention

00:37:37 --> 00:37:38

to you today.

00:37:39 --> 00:37:41

It is the winter prayer.

00:37:42 --> 00:37:44

The winter, brothers and sisters,

00:37:45 --> 00:37:47

that would take us less than a minute

00:37:48 --> 00:37:49

or just a bit more.

00:37:50 --> 00:37:52

It's not a bad honor to anyone.

00:37:52 --> 00:37:54

And you could pray this at the beginning

00:37:54 --> 00:37:56

of the night or the end of the

00:37:56 --> 00:37:57

night.

00:37:57 --> 00:37:59

But it's better to pray a deep end

00:37:59 --> 00:38:00

of the night.

00:38:13 --> 00:38:16

Whoever is scared of missing the

00:38:17 --> 00:38:19

winter prayer at the end of the night

00:38:19 --> 00:38:20

and then he prayed at the beginning of

00:38:20 --> 00:38:21

the night.

00:38:22 --> 00:38:25

But whoever now desires and has hope of

00:38:25 --> 00:38:26

praying the last part of the night, then

00:38:26 --> 00:38:28

let him make it at the end of

00:38:28 --> 00:38:29

the night.

00:38:29 --> 00:38:31

For indeed, the waiter at the end of

00:38:31 --> 00:38:32

the night is better.

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

Prophet

00:38:57 --> 00:38:59

The point is, brother and sisters,

00:38:59 --> 00:39:00

one

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

could pray.

00:39:02 --> 00:39:04

And you obtained such a great reward.

00:39:05 --> 00:39:07

Wasn't the virtue of the written prayer?

00:39:07 --> 00:39:09

Came another hadith where the prophet

00:39:29 --> 00:39:31

that is better than red comers.

00:39:32 --> 00:39:33

The red comers in a time when the

00:39:33 --> 00:39:36

Prophet Muhammad brothers and sisters was like the

00:39:36 --> 00:39:38

BMWs and the Mercedes and the Audi's that

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

we have today.

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

That every teenager,

00:39:40 --> 00:39:42

every young person desires and runs off to

00:39:42 --> 00:39:43

ride.

00:39:45 --> 00:39:46

The red camels was out of time. They

00:39:46 --> 00:39:48

were the most expensive and the most sought

00:39:50 --> 00:39:52

after. Prophet is

00:39:53 --> 00:39:54

better than this.

00:39:55 --> 00:39:57

It is better than red kamos. So they

00:39:57 --> 00:39:59

asked, You Rasulullah, what is it? He said

00:39:59 --> 00:40:01

the wither prayer between isha'at

00:40:02 --> 00:40:03

all the way to the fajal.

00:40:05 --> 00:40:07

Because brothers and sisters, the salaf

00:40:08 --> 00:40:08

prophet

00:40:09 --> 00:40:11

who came after, they really frowned

00:40:13 --> 00:40:15

on the individual who continuously

00:40:16 --> 00:40:18

leaves of the greater prayer. We don't say

00:40:18 --> 00:40:20

that you're sinful or that you're a or

00:40:21 --> 00:40:21

that

00:40:22 --> 00:40:23

you are not engaging in that which is

00:40:23 --> 00:40:25

of course, you know, we we don't say

00:40:25 --> 00:40:27

it in that, you know, you're doing something

00:40:27 --> 00:40:28

bad.

00:40:42 --> 00:40:44

Oh, Abdullah, do not be from that do

00:40:44 --> 00:40:45

not be like the person

00:40:46 --> 00:40:48

who used to pray some part of the

00:40:48 --> 00:40:50

night, and then he ended up leaving it

00:40:50 --> 00:40:50

off.

00:40:59 --> 00:41:01

It was mentioned to him that a person,

00:41:01 --> 00:41:03

he continuously lives on the withered prayer. You

00:41:03 --> 00:41:04

know what he said?

00:41:07 --> 00:41:09

This person is a bad man.

00:41:12 --> 00:41:13

Saw this individual

00:41:14 --> 00:41:16

because there's also a narration that is weak.

00:41:21 --> 00:41:22

The prophet

00:41:24 --> 00:41:24

the

00:41:29 --> 00:41:31

Whoever doesn't wake up for the winter, he's

00:41:31 --> 00:41:32

not from us.

00:41:34 --> 00:41:36

Even though there's a weakness in that narration,

00:41:37 --> 00:41:40

Imam Ahmad used to say

00:41:40 --> 00:41:42

that the weak narration is more beloved to

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

me

00:41:43 --> 00:41:45

than the opinions of men.

00:41:47 --> 00:41:48

And when you look at all the narrations,

00:41:48 --> 00:41:50

how the prophet was encouraged

00:41:50 --> 00:41:52

and how we spoke about the person

00:41:52 --> 00:41:54

who used to wake up in the night

00:41:54 --> 00:41:56

and then he it was something that was

00:41:56 --> 00:41:57

really frowned upon.

00:41:58 --> 00:42:01

So brothers and sisters, all these different examples

00:42:01 --> 00:42:02

that I mentioned,

00:42:03 --> 00:42:05

After this, brothers and sisters,

00:42:06 --> 00:42:07

I don't think

00:42:08 --> 00:42:09

we're going to be want to be from

00:42:09 --> 00:42:10

those

00:42:11 --> 00:42:12

who leave of the night prayer even if

00:42:12 --> 00:42:14

it is at the end of for the

00:42:14 --> 00:42:16

beginning of the night to pray 1 which

00:42:17 --> 00:42:18

takes maybe a minute,

00:42:19 --> 00:42:20

just a little bit more.

00:42:21 --> 00:42:24

And to attain that great reward

00:42:25 --> 00:42:26

of getting your dua

00:42:27 --> 00:42:29

accepted in the last part of the

00:42:30 --> 00:42:31

night.

00:42:31 --> 00:42:32

Allah

00:42:33 --> 00:42:33

in the Quran.

00:42:35 --> 00:42:38

I'm going to conclude with this in regards

00:42:38 --> 00:42:39

to this issue.

00:42:43 --> 00:42:45

When Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:42:46 --> 00:42:47

talks about

00:42:49 --> 00:42:51

that which has become beautified for the people.

00:42:56 --> 00:42:58

Women filled up gold and silver till they

00:42:58 --> 00:42:59

run off

00:43:18 --> 00:43:19

For those

00:43:19 --> 00:43:20

who

00:43:20 --> 00:43:21

have

00:43:21 --> 00:43:22

taqwa,

00:43:22 --> 00:43:23

as pure

00:43:24 --> 00:43:25

wives,

00:43:26 --> 00:43:28

in a jinnah that a person will attain.

00:43:28 --> 00:43:31

The satisfaction of your lord, then Allah

00:43:32 --> 00:43:33

mentioned specifically.

00:43:44 --> 00:43:46

Those who are patient,

00:43:47 --> 00:43:48

the truthful ones,

00:43:49 --> 00:43:50

and those who

00:43:51 --> 00:43:52

are obedient, those who spend

00:43:53 --> 00:43:53

in

00:43:54 --> 00:43:57

Allah way excessively. And the last one I

00:43:57 --> 00:44:00

was mentioning while those who say

00:44:01 --> 00:44:02

at the night.

00:44:03 --> 00:44:05

You feel tired, you feel lazy, you don't

00:44:05 --> 00:44:06

wanna pray,

00:44:07 --> 00:44:09

put your alarm on for 5 minutes in

00:44:09 --> 00:44:10

that night

00:44:10 --> 00:44:12

And you could wake up and just do

00:44:12 --> 00:44:12

and

00:44:14 --> 00:44:15

go back to sleep.

00:44:16 --> 00:44:18

5 minutes is not going to happen.

00:44:19 --> 00:44:21

And you are from those who are mentioned

00:44:21 --> 00:44:22

in this verse, the best of the people.

00:44:24 --> 00:44:26

Also, brother and sister, I wanna quickly mention

00:44:28 --> 00:44:30

at some point, it's maturing the salif

00:44:31 --> 00:44:32

and how they used to be

00:44:33 --> 00:44:34

on

00:44:35 --> 00:44:36

the day of Eid.

00:44:36 --> 00:44:38

So I can see a lot of young

00:44:38 --> 00:44:39

brothers here.

00:44:39 --> 00:44:40

And the fitna

00:44:40 --> 00:44:43

is really big, especially in the summer.

00:44:43 --> 00:44:45

Find the majority of the sisters, they're walking

00:44:45 --> 00:44:45

around

00:44:46 --> 00:44:48

more than half naked. Before Yusuf said, you're

00:44:48 --> 00:44:49

actually half naked. It's a bit more than

00:44:49 --> 00:44:50

that now.

00:44:51 --> 00:44:53

And as time goes on, you find

00:44:53 --> 00:44:56

that the dress code is becoming more worse.

00:44:58 --> 00:45:00

Brothers and sisters, the prophet said,

00:45:10 --> 00:45:12

hijab, as you're saying now, I was like,

00:45:12 --> 00:45:13

you know, the other day I was saying

00:45:13 --> 00:45:14

and then someone said to me, I think

00:45:14 --> 00:45:16

we already have this. Is this the way

00:45:16 --> 00:45:18

hijab and the saying is you're in miniskar?

00:45:19 --> 00:45:20

Someone said to me, moustah,

00:45:21 --> 00:45:22

you know, we already have this.

00:45:25 --> 00:45:28

The nouns we've seen, the future of women

00:45:28 --> 00:45:30

like you know, how they dress, your body

00:45:30 --> 00:45:31

showing and everything.

00:45:32 --> 00:45:34

Oh, maybe later on, in Bilqin is in

00:45:34 --> 00:45:35

a way in the job at the same

00:45:35 --> 00:45:37

time, it's not far off.

00:45:38 --> 00:45:39

Because if you was to think,

00:45:39 --> 00:45:41

oh, of of our elders

00:45:42 --> 00:45:43

30, 40 years ago,

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

that which we are seeing now,

00:45:46 --> 00:45:48

that we're currently seeing in this time,

00:45:49 --> 00:45:51

would we have seen it 30, 40 years

00:45:51 --> 00:45:52

ago?

00:45:53 --> 00:45:57

We wouldn't see this. Most elderly would agree.

00:45:57 --> 00:45:59

Most of our elders will agree to this.

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

And it's getting worse. It's getting more worse.

00:46:02 --> 00:46:03

It's getting more

00:46:07 --> 00:46:07

worse.

00:46:12 --> 00:46:14

He said that he heard Sufyanath Thawri,

00:46:15 --> 00:46:16

2 tremendous great Taibileen.

00:46:19 --> 00:46:21

He said that he heard Sufyan al Thawr

00:46:21 --> 00:46:22

say,

00:46:27 --> 00:46:29

The first one that we're going to start

00:46:29 --> 00:46:29

with,

00:46:30 --> 00:46:31

on this day, on the day of Eid,

00:46:33 --> 00:46:34

is by lowering our gaze.

00:46:36 --> 00:46:37

So they left their homes. A lot of

00:46:37 --> 00:46:37

us

00:46:39 --> 00:46:40

are going to be bringing pots. I don't

00:46:40 --> 00:46:43

know what's happening in Newtown. It's taking place

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

in pots. Right?

00:46:46 --> 00:46:47

It's going to be a horde of women

00:46:47 --> 00:46:48

there as well.

00:46:48 --> 00:46:49

And may Allah

00:46:50 --> 00:46:51

help and guide our sisters.

00:46:52 --> 00:46:53

But on this day you find that the

00:46:53 --> 00:46:55

makeup tends to come out.

00:46:58 --> 00:47:00

Beautification on the face,

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

matte makeup,

00:47:02 --> 00:47:04

bb cream, and all these, you know, the

00:47:04 --> 00:47:06

sense is not what I'm talking about.

00:47:07 --> 00:47:09

Everybody wants to beautify themselves on the day

00:47:09 --> 00:47:09

of age

00:47:10 --> 00:47:12

when it's only a thing that is specific

00:47:12 --> 00:47:14

and special to their husbands. You're not there

00:47:14 --> 00:47:15

to

00:47:16 --> 00:47:18

grab the attention of others. And

00:47:19 --> 00:47:20

the guy is

00:47:34 --> 00:47:36

I don't know of the scholars of the

00:47:36 --> 00:47:36

past.

00:47:37 --> 00:47:38

When he went home at CNN,

00:47:39 --> 00:47:40

when he went home,

00:47:40 --> 00:47:43

his wife said to him, how many beautiful

00:47:43 --> 00:47:45

women have you checked out today?

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

And she kept on repeating. You

00:47:58 --> 00:47:58

system

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

It's perfectly normal for a sister to think

00:48:01 --> 00:48:02

like that.

00:48:03 --> 00:48:04

Very, very jealous, especially if she loves the

00:48:04 --> 00:48:05

husband.

00:48:05 --> 00:48:07

She realized that all got in love, sister-in-law,

00:48:08 --> 00:48:09

you like the way he looks.

00:48:10 --> 00:48:12

Must have been a very handsome guy. I

00:48:12 --> 00:48:14

have to say, keep repeating it to him.

00:48:14 --> 00:48:16

He says that he left his old mysterious

00:48:16 --> 00:48:17

tongue,

00:48:32 --> 00:48:33

from the biggest

00:48:33 --> 00:48:34

of foundations

00:48:34 --> 00:48:35

when it comes to

00:48:36 --> 00:48:38

preserving your heart.

00:48:40 --> 00:48:42

No blind man. What's the

00:48:43 --> 00:48:45

possibility of him going and falling into zenal?

00:48:46 --> 00:48:47

That is blind.

00:48:49 --> 00:48:52

Think it's under 1% right, goes into 0.000

00:48:53 --> 00:48:54

probability

00:48:55 --> 00:48:57

because he's blind. He can't see anything.

00:48:58 --> 00:48:58

His

00:48:59 --> 00:49:01

his desire is not like those who when

00:49:01 --> 00:49:04

he sees a very nice, pretty young sister,

00:49:05 --> 00:49:07

and he likes the way she looks. And

00:49:07 --> 00:49:09

a thought start coming to his mind, and

00:49:09 --> 00:49:11

a thought leads to something else and so

00:49:11 --> 00:49:12

on and so forth.

00:49:14 --> 00:49:15

And destruction it could lead to.

00:49:17 --> 00:49:19

This is why the person lowered his gaze,

00:49:19 --> 00:49:22

he become more far away from calling it

00:49:22 --> 00:49:22

to zina.

00:49:23 --> 00:49:25

Is why the first thing that was mentioned,

00:49:29 --> 00:49:31

Same parting or private part was mentioned after

00:49:32 --> 00:49:33

lowering a

00:49:36 --> 00:49:36

gate.

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

The

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

of the hand

00:49:50 --> 00:49:53

is stretching out to her, holding her hand.

00:49:54 --> 00:49:56

And the of the feet is walking towards

00:49:56 --> 00:49:56

her.

00:49:59 --> 00:50:01

Bani Adam and his fair share of zina

00:50:01 --> 00:50:02

written down on him.

00:50:04 --> 00:50:06

So brothers and sisters, this is how the

00:50:06 --> 00:50:08

salafuya. You wanna look after your heart?

00:50:09 --> 00:50:10

This might be a good place to start

00:50:10 --> 00:50:12

by staring at your thumb.

00:50:13 --> 00:50:15

People are gonna think you're crazy,

00:50:15 --> 00:50:17

but which one do you prefer? Safeguard your

00:50:17 --> 00:50:18

heart?

00:50:18 --> 00:50:19

Because

00:50:29 --> 00:50:31

There is a piece of flesh inside your

00:50:31 --> 00:50:31

body.

00:50:33 --> 00:50:35

If it becomes corrupt, everything else becomes corrupt.

00:50:36 --> 00:50:38

Now it becomes rectified, everything else becomes rectified.

00:50:39 --> 00:50:40

What is this? You say

00:50:43 --> 00:50:44

We ask

00:50:45 --> 00:50:46

Allah to benefit from what we heard,

00:50:47 --> 00:50:49

and to make you say, Ramadan, that He

00:50:49 --> 00:50:51

accepts our atiyan, our siyam,

00:50:52 --> 00:50:53

to not make this from those who were

00:50:53 --> 00:50:56

mentioned in hadith. Oh, Masai, he said in

00:50:56 --> 00:50:57

Jordan.

00:50:57 --> 00:50:59

Perhaps he fasted because nothing out of the

00:50:59 --> 00:50:59

fasting

00:51:27 --> 00:51:28

reaches in the Majah.

00:51:29 --> 00:51:31

We've got a few minutes remaining, brothers and

00:51:31 --> 00:51:32

sisters, ask

00:51:32 --> 00:51:34

Allah Last few moments

00:51:36 --> 00:51:37

from what we know, as I mentioned right

00:51:37 --> 00:51:38

at the beginning of the lecture,

00:51:39 --> 00:51:39

the dua

00:51:41 --> 00:51:41

is accepted.

00:51:42 --> 00:51:44

You have a couple of minutes, ask Allah

00:51:44 --> 00:51:47

subhanahu wa ta'ala to accept your actions. And

00:51:47 --> 00:51:48

all the hard work, the last thing we

00:51:48 --> 00:51:49

want is

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

of 2,017,

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

the

00:51:54 --> 00:51:55

in 2,009,

00:51:56 --> 00:51:58

the dua that we made in 2,000, nothing

00:51:58 --> 00:51:59

was accepted.

00:52:19 --> 00:52:21

And for attending today even though I thought

00:52:21 --> 00:52:22

they were no going to attend

00:52:22 --> 00:52:25

cause the aid and everybody's busy running around

00:52:25 --> 00:52:26

trying to

00:52:26 --> 00:52:28

prepare for the
