00:01:08 --> 00:01:13

bestowed on us. I seek refuge in Him from our own weaknesses and

00:01:13 --> 00:01:18

00:01:18 --> 00:01:23

00:01:33 --> 00:01:38

of mankind may Allah heal the more shallow and remove this biggest

00:01:38 --> 00:01:41

test that humankind has faced in recent times.

00:01:42 --> 00:01:45

I bear witness there is none worthy of worship but Allah

00:01:45 --> 00:01:49

subhanho wa Taala I also bear witness that Rasulullah sallallahu

00:01:49 --> 00:01:53

alayhi wa sallam is the final messenger. Through him Allah

00:01:53 --> 00:01:57

subhanho wa Taala sent the final testament and the messenger of

00:01:57 --> 00:02:04

Mercy embodied he practiced the great ideas, the virtues of the

00:02:04 --> 00:02:10

Quran, so that people could look at him as a walking Quran as his

00:02:10 --> 00:02:14

own beloved wife described when she was asked to describe the

00:02:14 --> 00:02:18

character of Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam. She could not do that

00:02:18 --> 00:02:21

she asked the man did you read the Quran?

00:02:22 --> 00:02:28

The man said yes. So what if Quran was working, and sitting and

00:02:28 --> 00:02:33

standing, that was Rasulullah sallallahu. So in other words, he

00:02:33 --> 00:02:38

embodied the beautiful teachings of the Quran, and lived by it. So

00:02:38 --> 00:02:43

we can look up to messenger of Mercy Salallahu Salam, everyone to

00:02:43 --> 00:02:45

follow the guidance and practice it.

00:02:46 --> 00:02:52

Today I have chosen a beautiful Hadith from the 40 Hadith of Imam

00:02:52 --> 00:02:56

nawawi. This is one of those beautiful collections of Hadith

00:02:56 --> 00:03:01

that we should keep for our own study and benefit of our children.

00:03:02 --> 00:03:07

And we should always have basic references at home so that people

00:03:07 --> 00:03:13

can refer to it, read it constantly, and thereby mold our

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

character and

00:03:15 --> 00:03:20

transform our outlook on life and our behavior.

00:03:21 --> 00:03:26

This hadith is reported by Imam Muslim and many others is a well

00:03:26 --> 00:03:31

attested tradition. When you speak of tradition, there are 1000s of

00:03:31 --> 00:03:35

them. And most of them are fabricated dubious weak. So we

00:03:35 --> 00:03:39

should not be cotinga We should not be citing them but

00:03:39 --> 00:03:44

unfortunately they are always on the social media people send them

00:03:44 --> 00:03:49

because of ignorance or because of wrong understanding they have but

00:03:49 --> 00:03:53

this is one of those feet few traditions that are well attested.

00:03:54 --> 00:03:58

So therefore, we can make sure I understood first certainly it goes

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

back to Rasulullah sallallahu. So this is reported on the authority

00:04:03 --> 00:04:05

of a great companion of the Prophet

00:04:08 --> 00:04:13

Abu Musa luxury Allahu Anhu. He said the messenger of allah

00:04:13 --> 00:04:16

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said at the whole Chateau Limon

00:04:17 --> 00:04:20

purification cleanliness is half of faith.

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

Well, hamdulillah Tamela will Misa

00:04:26 --> 00:04:30

the formula of Alhamdulillah our praise to Allah.

00:04:31 --> 00:04:35

It weighed heavily in the scales of the Judgement Day.

00:04:37 --> 00:04:41

And your formation Subhan Allah Glory be to Allah and Praise be to

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

Him.

00:04:43 --> 00:04:47

Comme la anima by in a summer you will learn it fills the space

00:04:47 --> 00:04:50

between the heaven and earth. This is symbolic way of

00:04:51 --> 00:04:56

you know, telling us that these formulas, these affirmations when

00:04:56 --> 00:05:00

we repeat them reflect on the meditator

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

on them, we will be meriting tremendous rewards countless

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

blessings from Allah subhanho wa taala.

00:05:07 --> 00:05:12

And then the Prophet said was Salah to rule on prayer is light.

00:05:13 --> 00:05:17

Of course, it's a light for the believer in this world and in the

00:05:17 --> 00:05:23

grave. And when we stand up on the resurrection day of faces or part

00:05:23 --> 00:05:30

will be illuminated. So Salah is light was sadaqa to Wuhan, charity

00:05:30 --> 00:05:32

is evidence proof of faith

00:05:34 --> 00:05:39

was Soboleva patience is illumination. Well, Quran objeto

00:05:39 --> 00:05:46

laka how alake Quran can be a witness for you, and advocate for

00:05:46 --> 00:05:48

you, or an advocate against you.

00:05:50 --> 00:05:55

You know, it cannot be a third alternative. Either we accept the

00:05:55 --> 00:06:00

Quran and read and study and practice it, then it will be an

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

advocate pleading for us before it looks vulnerable.

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

Or it can be an advocate against us, pleading against us before

00:06:09 --> 00:06:12

Allah subhanaw taala or the Judgment Day, and then the Prophet

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

said Kulu Nursia do

00:06:15 --> 00:06:21

you have to do everyone starts out is you know life in the morning

00:06:21 --> 00:06:27

from the morning onwards. And you can look at people divided into

00:06:27 --> 00:06:31

two groups. They are are engaging in a transaction.

00:06:33 --> 00:06:37

That transaction either they are selling themselves

00:06:38 --> 00:06:43

to get to you know they are by obeying the last one or whatever

00:06:43 --> 00:06:49

they are purchasing their seat in paradise war they are selling

00:06:49 --> 00:06:53

themselves to shaitan and then landing up

00:06:54 --> 00:06:55

in hellfire.

00:06:56 --> 00:07:01

So this is a beautiful Hadees today we are in Mundo from Milan.

00:07:02 --> 00:07:06

And I pray to Allah subhanho wa Taala that Allah continue to show

00:07:06 --> 00:07:10

us his blessings in this month, and continue to inspire us to

00:07:10 --> 00:07:14

seize the maximum blessings of this month. And there is nothing

00:07:15 --> 00:07:21

more important for us. They're being guided, you know, to the

00:07:21 --> 00:07:28

light of prophecy, and here is a beautiful Hadees repeat a

00:07:28 --> 00:07:32

reflection and pondering the meaning and acting upon them

00:07:32 --> 00:07:38

surely will enrich will enhance our faith and surely will help us

00:07:39 --> 00:07:43

you know attain salvation and success in this world. And the

00:07:43 --> 00:07:47

next one, the first point that the prophet is talking about is

00:07:47 --> 00:07:48

purification.

00:07:49 --> 00:07:51

You know, Islam has,

00:07:52 --> 00:07:57

is multi dimensional it everything that Islam teaches says there is a

00:07:57 --> 00:08:00

form to it and there is a spirit to it.

00:08:01 --> 00:08:07

Because the purification in Islam is physical and mental and

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

spiritual. There are three levels of purification.

00:08:11 --> 00:08:16

Physical purification, involves, you know, taking a bath, and of

00:08:16 --> 00:08:22

course, performing ablutions. And there are rules. And, you know,

00:08:22 --> 00:08:29

even the chapter on purification. In fact, encyclopedias, spans two

00:08:29 --> 00:08:36

big huge volumes. In a work spanning 35 volumes, two volumes

00:08:36 --> 00:08:39

are dedicated to the rules of purification.

00:08:41 --> 00:08:45

And of course, this is our talking about physical purification, this

00:08:45 --> 00:08:50

Takimoto whistle and Willow. Then when it comes to spiritual

00:08:50 --> 00:08:56

purification, there are 1000s of works written by our spiritual

00:08:56 --> 00:09:03

masters, virtually 1000s on explaining how do we protect our

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

heart of the diseases of the heart, the toxins that you know

00:09:08 --> 00:09:13

corrupt our mind corrupt or Tiggy, corrupt our soul. So we need to be

00:09:13 --> 00:09:16

engaged while we are performing. All the prophets are allowed, as

00:09:16 --> 00:09:22

Ron said, don't look at it as a physical purification. Because

00:09:22 --> 00:09:26

when you wash your face, and you should make that meow that Allah

00:09:26 --> 00:09:30

washes away the sins that you committed by your face, when you

00:09:30 --> 00:09:35

wash your mouth. Imagine by doing that you are also washing the sins

00:09:35 --> 00:09:41

committed by the mouth every the hand when you wash it, spiritual

00:09:41 --> 00:09:46

aspect of ablution is that you intend that ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala

00:09:46 --> 00:09:50

cleanse you are the sins that you've committed by the hand and

00:09:50 --> 00:09:55

then wash when you wash your feet. The sins committed by the feet. So

00:09:55 --> 00:09:59

look how you know this is a very very that's why Mohammed Hassan

00:09:59 --> 00:09:59

Rouhani

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

Allah He said, he's a convert from Judaism to Islam, after leaving an

00:10:05 --> 00:10:11

entire life, he had this to say about Islam that this is a perfect

00:10:11 --> 00:10:15

work of art, you cannot take anything away from it, you cannot

00:10:15 --> 00:10:21

add anything to it, this is all complete and perfect immaculately

00:10:21 --> 00:10:25

perfect is the word he used. So, that is why we need to reflect on

00:10:25 --> 00:10:29

our aspects, you know, every single act of worship,

00:10:29 --> 00:10:35

multidimensional This is Salah has a social dimension, Salah has a

00:10:35 --> 00:10:41

physical dimension, because one you will do Salah going boil down

00:10:41 --> 00:10:45

and prostrate, and the way the prescribed to us, surely it will

00:10:45 --> 00:10:51

also help us to get fit physically as well. And there are people

00:10:51 --> 00:10:55

praying hundreds of sometime 100 Rakhi day and they are physically

00:10:55 --> 00:11:00

fit. Of course, if you have time, you should do that. Of course, and

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

this is a kind of physical fitness as well. But of course, it's a

00:11:04 --> 00:11:09

mental fitness, the Prophet sallallahu wasallam said. So after

00:11:09 --> 00:11:15

talking about purification, the prophet one has to remember to

00:11:15 --> 00:11:16

celebrate the Corolla.

00:11:18 --> 00:11:22

And the best form of zikr for us is to be able to say always

00:11:22 --> 00:11:23

Alhamdulillah

00:11:25 --> 00:11:29

why Alhamdulillah important, because everything I enjoy now,

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

the breath I take

00:11:33 --> 00:11:39

the side, the way the the fact that I can speak the fact I can

00:11:39 --> 00:11:40

taste a morsel of food,

00:11:41 --> 00:11:46

the fact that I can grasp something, the fact I can digest,

00:11:46 --> 00:11:51

all of these are blessings. And you cannot value them.

00:11:52 --> 00:11:59

Priceless. Nobody can put a value on these proceedings. So there is

00:11:59 --> 00:12:04

nothing greater than a person saying Alhamdulillah from his

00:12:04 --> 00:12:09

heart. This was the basic quality of the believers, you know, which

00:12:09 --> 00:12:14

non Muslims, you know, visiting the Islamic countries, they would

00:12:14 --> 00:12:19

go to the hospital and this man will be suffering. And yet, if you

00:12:19 --> 00:12:24

ask him, How are you, he will smile and say Alhamdulillah

00:12:24 --> 00:12:30

because you know why? Even though I am suffering, still, I should be

00:12:30 --> 00:12:34

thankful to God Almighty, because I am alive. And I have the

00:12:34 --> 00:12:41

opportunity to get to Jana. So our hamdulillah saying Alhamdulillah

00:12:41 --> 00:12:45

from your heart is a great rewarding act. And then Subhan

00:12:45 --> 00:12:50

Allah Subhana Allah means recognizing that God alone is

00:12:50 --> 00:12:56

perfect. He is beyond all imperfections. He the absolute he

00:12:56 --> 00:13:03

the unique, he the incomparable he divides, ie the arguing, so

00:13:03 --> 00:13:08

recognizing that uniqueness and incomparable transcendence of

00:13:08 --> 00:13:14

Allah subhanaw taala. So these two phrases, the Prophet said, Subhana

00:13:14 --> 00:13:19

Allah will hamdulillah is so rewarding, it's filled the space

00:13:19 --> 00:13:23

between the Heaven and Earth meaning this is symbolic way of

00:13:23 --> 00:13:28

telling us how magnificent these words are, how rewarding these

00:13:28 --> 00:13:35

words are. Actually, Islam has witnessed so many saintly people

00:13:35 --> 00:13:43

1000s of them home will always attract these formulas always. And

00:13:43 --> 00:13:48

then Allah subhanaw taala says on the Day of Judgment, these people

00:13:48 --> 00:13:52

you will have on a test be karma you will have on enough us you

00:13:52 --> 00:13:55

know they will be automatically breathing just be

00:13:56 --> 00:14:02

as they are breathing spontaneous. So you and I have this opportunity

00:14:02 --> 00:14:07

of conditioning ourselves to making the car constant. There is

00:14:07 --> 00:14:12

nothing more valuable than that that we could do because it will

00:14:12 --> 00:14:19

inch save us keep shaytan away from us and bring us closer to

00:14:19 --> 00:14:24

Allah subhanaw taala because Allah said Anna Jalisa manga Karani, I

00:14:24 --> 00:14:29

am the Companion of the one who remembers me. So do you want

00:14:29 --> 00:14:33

anyone else as a companion? But Allah subhanho wa Taala What a

00:14:33 --> 00:14:38

great honor. And then the Prophet said was Salah to noon. Prayer is

00:14:38 --> 00:14:39

light.

00:14:40 --> 00:14:44

You know when the day of judgment Allah subhanaw taala says when

00:14:44 --> 00:14:50

they wake up, arise from their graves, yes sir room, Euro they

00:14:50 --> 00:14:55

are surrounded with light, light shining for from friend and from

00:14:55 --> 00:15:00

behind or the left and why and the profit

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

Hola Hola Silva said, a believers faces will be radiating with that

00:15:04 --> 00:15:09

light, because of the light of the law, because of the light of

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

purification, the effect of it. And of course, a person spiritual

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

person can see look at the face of a person who is praying regularly,

00:15:21 --> 00:15:25

and baking will regularly the effect will be on his face or her

00:15:25 --> 00:15:32

face. This is the right from Allah Azza wa Taala is a gift was sadaqa

00:15:32 --> 00:15:37

to Baja. And the Prophet said, charity, of course the top of

00:15:37 --> 00:15:41

charities occur on top of that we should give extra charities also,

00:15:41 --> 00:15:46

it's a boron is evidence of faith, the fact that you trust in Allah

00:15:46 --> 00:15:50

subhanaw taala the fact that you trust in the Promise of Allah,

00:15:50 --> 00:15:54

because when you give for the love of Allah, Allah will replace it

00:15:54 --> 00:15:58

for you. So the car will not diminish your charity, it will

00:15:58 --> 00:16:01

enhance it, it will bless it.

00:16:02 --> 00:16:07

And people who don't give the car who don't give sadaqa they will be

00:16:07 --> 00:16:12

deprived of that blessing in their world. So this is something people

00:16:12 --> 00:16:18

can experience. I had it this kind of experience in various massages

00:16:18 --> 00:16:23

when people were, you know, told to give sadaqa and I recited the,

00:16:23 --> 00:16:28

the Hadith of the Prophet sadaqa will never diminish your world. It

00:16:28 --> 00:16:33

will only increase and enhance it and bless it. And people one after

00:16:33 --> 00:16:36

the other came to me that we believe in the promise of

00:16:36 --> 00:16:41

Rasulullah sallallaahu Salam and the person. You know, one person

00:16:41 --> 00:16:42

came to me and said,

00:16:44 --> 00:16:52

You asked me to give you know, you know 300 Every day $1 A day, a

00:16:52 --> 00:16:56

contribution pledge for the foundation and you recited this

00:16:56 --> 00:17:01

hubby's and I believe it in it. And then when I went home, and I

00:17:01 --> 00:17:06

told my wife about it, she asked me how can we vary the budget.

00:17:07 --> 00:17:12

I said Allah will provide the budget. And next morning when I

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

went back to work, my boss called me and said I have increased your

00:17:15 --> 00:17:22

salary to $100 a month. So immediately recognized the

00:17:22 --> 00:17:26

blessing of Allah subhanaw taala there are many people telling the

00:17:26 --> 00:17:29

similar stories because they believed in the promise of a last

00:17:29 --> 00:17:35

one was Somalia. Patience is illumination. You know, patience

00:17:35 --> 00:17:39

is required to carry out the orders of Allah subhanaw taala to

00:17:39 --> 00:17:46

wake up for Salah Fajr patience is needed to stand long in prayer if

00:17:46 --> 00:17:50

the hard job or to have the patience is needed. Fasting

00:17:50 --> 00:17:54

require patience, and staying away from seems whenever everybody is

00:17:54 --> 00:17:59

sinning. Everybody is lusting after women or men in the case of

00:17:59 --> 00:18:05

women, you know, so it requires tremendous patience. And what

00:18:05 --> 00:18:09

happened the result is its illumination, you know, allows one
