My dear brothers and sisters,

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

it's my honor once again

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

to welcome you to another episode in our

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

series of duas to cover your day.

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

And we are still meditating or reflecting on

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

our small Khushnah,

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

the most beautiful names of Allah Subhanahu Wa

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

Ta'ala.

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

And today, I have chosen

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

3 of the most beautiful names,

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

Razaq,

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

Al Fattah, Al Ali.

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

As I said earlier,

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

we need to invoke and call upon Allah

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

by

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

his beautiful names.

00:00:49 --> 00:00:52

So you can say, you are yeah. You

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

Allah, You Razaq

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

or Zukna.

00:01:10 --> 00:01:13

Alimna. So, this is one way of

00:01:13 --> 00:01:16

interaction with these names and, of course, I

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

will also explain,

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

how do we benefit also

00:01:20 --> 00:01:22

most profoundly by these names from these names.

00:01:23 --> 00:01:25

Al Razaq means the provider.

00:01:26 --> 00:01:28

Al Fata' means the opener.

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

Al Ali means the all knowing.

00:01:33 --> 00:01:34

The name of Rezaq

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

refers to Allah

00:01:36 --> 00:01:38

as the provider of his creatures.

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

He provides for all of them

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

without him in need of anything from anyone.

00:01:46 --> 00:01:49

He sustains all of his creatures by providing

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

them

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52

with the means and resources

00:01:53 --> 00:01:54

that they need.

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

Surah 51 verse 58.

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

Truly Allah is the provider,

00:02:03 --> 00:02:05

the processor of strength,

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

the firm.

00:02:08 --> 00:02:09

Al Fata,

00:02:10 --> 00:02:11

the other name refers to Allah

00:02:12 --> 00:02:14

as the opener of the doors

00:02:15 --> 00:02:19

to our material and spiritual means and abundance.

00:02:20 --> 00:02:21

So, You

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

Whatsoever

00:02:49 --> 00:02:51

mercy God opens into mankind,

00:02:52 --> 00:02:53

none can be told it,

00:02:54 --> 00:02:56

and whatsoever he be told,

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

none shall release thereafter,

00:02:58 --> 00:03:01

and he is the mighty, the wise.

00:03:02 --> 00:03:04

The next name is Al-'Aleem,

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

refers to God almighty's

00:03:06 --> 00:03:07

omniscience,

00:03:08 --> 00:03:12

his perfect knowledge, immaculate knowledge, ultimate knowledge of

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

all things.

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

He had the ultimate knowledge. He had the

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

perfect knowledge,

00:03:18 --> 00:03:19

past, present, and future.

00:03:20 --> 00:03:23

So what is our share in these names?

00:03:23 --> 00:03:25

How do we benefit from these names?

00:03:26 --> 00:03:28

First of all, we mentioned that we call

00:03:28 --> 00:03:29

upon Allah

00:03:29 --> 00:03:30

by

00:03:30 --> 00:03:31

invoking

00:03:31 --> 00:03:32

his favors

00:03:33 --> 00:03:34

using these names

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

as we mentioned earlier. And another point is

00:03:37 --> 00:03:40

seeking provisions and favors from Allah alone

00:03:40 --> 00:03:42

while putting forth the best of our efforts.

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

We need to go out and work,

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

but still we need to pay to Allah

00:03:49 --> 00:03:52

to provide for us because our efforts without

00:03:52 --> 00:03:54

his will and power

00:03:54 --> 00:03:56

is futile and absurd.

00:03:56 --> 00:03:58

So we should not be totally

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

relying upon on our efforts,

00:04:02 --> 00:04:03

but we should put forth the best of

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

our efforts

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

while calling upon and seeking the blessing

00:04:07 --> 00:04:10

and grace of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Number

00:04:10 --> 00:04:12

2, we must turn to Allah Subhanahu Wa

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

Ta'ala

00:04:13 --> 00:04:15

to open all the cross doors

00:04:15 --> 00:04:16

and facilitate

00:04:16 --> 00:04:18

ways and means for us.

00:04:18 --> 00:04:21

Always, we need to turn to Allah because

00:04:21 --> 00:04:22

wherever, whenever,

00:04:23 --> 00:04:26

every step of the way, we may find

00:04:26 --> 00:04:27

our doors are blocked.

00:04:28 --> 00:04:29

So how do we

00:04:31 --> 00:04:32

call upon Allah,

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

of course, call upon him by saying, You

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

Fata, You Allah.

00:04:38 --> 00:04:40

W'Allaah, open the closed door for me and

00:04:40 --> 00:04:43

facilitate the this affair for me.

00:04:44 --> 00:04:46

Seeking knowledge from Allah

00:04:46 --> 00:04:49

because he alone is our This

00:04:50 --> 00:04:54

means that we must read, we must think,

00:04:54 --> 00:04:57

we must have write, we must observe, we

00:04:57 --> 00:04:58

must do research

00:04:58 --> 00:05:01

while also turning to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

00:05:01 --> 00:05:02

The Muslims sign this,

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

like even a sinner,

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

would think and reflect and research

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

and then go to the masjid and pray

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

to raka.

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

Even though

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

he is not such a,

00:05:15 --> 00:05:17

legal Muslim legalistic Muslim,

00:05:18 --> 00:05:20

but, spiritually, he's attuned

00:05:20 --> 00:05:22

to turning to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala because

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

he knows, after all,

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

the success of his research

00:05:27 --> 00:05:29

is dependent on the mercy of Allah's opening

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

the doors

00:05:31 --> 00:05:32

of that knowledge.

00:05:33 --> 00:05:35

So even though we put for the best

00:05:35 --> 00:05:37

of our words, seeking the

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

resources

00:05:39 --> 00:05:41

and the avenues and the methods of learning,

00:05:42 --> 00:05:44

we need to all we're also open to

00:05:44 --> 00:05:45

correction.

00:05:45 --> 00:05:48

This is another wisdom we learned from

00:05:48 --> 00:05:50

our case callers and scientists

00:05:50 --> 00:05:53

because whatever theories they formulate,

00:05:53 --> 00:05:56

whatever solution they arrive at, they would still

00:05:56 --> 00:05:58

follow it up by saying,

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

Allah knows best.

00:06:01 --> 00:06:02

Because they are

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

they know that

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

they could be open to correction.

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

It could be open to criticism.

00:06:09 --> 00:06:10

It could be upon your enrollment.

00:06:11 --> 00:06:13

So we must practice that humility

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

to say

00:06:15 --> 00:06:18

Allah, allahu alam, Allah knows better,

00:06:19 --> 00:06:20

and we should never be,

00:06:22 --> 00:06:24

overly proud of our knowledge

00:06:24 --> 00:06:25

because

00:06:27 --> 00:06:30

of. Above every knowledgeable person is someone who

00:06:30 --> 00:06:31

knows

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

faster than that. Who is that?

00:06:34 --> 00:06:37

Greater in knowledge is none but Allah Subhanahu

00:06:37 --> 00:06:39

Wa Ta'ala. Akoolukum LiHada. WASTAAFULLULAYI

00:06:40 --> 00:06:42

WALLACOM. WASSALAMU'LAYI WALLACOM. WASSALAMU'LAYI WALLACOM. WASSALAMU'LAYI

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

WALLACOM.
