My dear brothers and sisters.
First of all, I Praise Almighty Allah for his tremendous
blessings.
I asked him, I invoke his mercy and protection on all of us. May
Allah subhanho wa Taala continue to shower us with His blessings
and protection. May Allah protect us all against the deadly pandemic

human beings, Muslims and others including me last one over Tala
also inspire all of us to always turn to him in repentance, and
seeking His mercy and forgiveness.
We have under a new year according to the Gregorian calendar, one of
the questions people ask, Is it okay for us to wish happy new
year?
The answer to the mean since one Ullswater, what Allah has told us
that we cannot wish well,
we cannot wish good regardless of time and place, surely the season
changing day changing the alteration of day and night, and
the sunrise and sunset and the fluctuation of seasons.
And the various changes in nature, Allah SWANA what Allah in the
Quran reminds us, these are times these are signs for us to
celebrate the remembrance of Allah subhanho wa taala. So we can use
the occasion nothing wrong with that, to wish well, and also to
benefit from the new year and the new season. It's customary for
people
one way under a new year. They use the time they reflect on the past.
And they make new decisions, new resolutions.
But unfortunately, these resolutions don't stick around.
They give up because they lack the discipline and the commitment.
Islam requires from every believer to develop a discipline,
to develop commitment and to follow the method excellent
principles and practices of Rasulullah sallallahu wasallam as
he achieved success in everything he set out to do.
Imagine the Prophet of Allah without resources, you and I take
for granted.
He struggled are by himself.
Trusting in allows one Rotella expending the best of his efforts.
And then within a short period of 23 years, he succeeded in
achieving what he set out to do. And realizing the goals he had.
The goals he had already planned in Makkah.
When the companion complained to him of the persecution they are
facing from the Quraysh
how long we have to endure this. The Prophet of Allah said, Sal,
Allahu alayhi wa salam,
surely I will continue to struggle.
No matter the sacrifices involved, and the suffering involved, and
persecution in all, I will continue to struggle until a young
girl can travel all by herself,
without any fear of molestation or assault.
From here to harem, all by herself. So the prophets are
Allah, Allah Salam had already seen you know what? tangible
things will materialize on the ground.
As he is struggling with the moment he started.
So the question for Muslims should be what are the goals that we
should formulate? What are the resolution we should have for the
new year? And how do we develop that discipline and commitment?
And how do we make sure we achieve these goals?
As is usual for everybody in the new year, you know, they said
statistics say that, in the new year in January, the gym
memberships shoot up, peak, but within three weeks, it declines.
And then within eight months,
completely validity of the people already gave up.
And they failed in sticking on with us resolution they had made
for themselves. Surely for the believers, Muslims, we should aim
for physical fitness, financial fitness, intellectual fitness,
mental fitness. But even more important for us is spiritual
fitness. Because in Islam,
the body, the mind and the soul, the Prophet taught us we need to
work hard on developing our physical muscle
and mental muscle, as well as a spiritual muscle.
And financial muscle is also important, the prophet to
encourage the believers to have good wealth, and the good word
earned through the law. For me, it's a valuable asset for a
believer.
But of course work through unlawful means is a source of
course. And it is not going to bless allows one authorized
notebook coin to bless our life if we earn our wealth through
unlawful means. So physical fitness, mental fitness, spiritual
fitness, these three goals, we need to have organized our time
around this
to develop
you know any habit, the principle of the Sunnah of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi salam, this is the way that is going to work and
the science a tests prove that their behavior science,
behavior modification, you know, the people who studied they will
watch for it. The Prophet said, in Allah you have to either Amina or
you took her in I have gulaman Ilahi, adorable. Ha You know,
Allah, Laos, whatever work we do, to do it as efficiently, as
professionally as beautifully as we care. And then he said, Allah,
no work is more loud by Allah than the work you do consistently.
So consistently.
Working on your body, physical fitness, consistently working,
consistently reading and reflecting and contemplating.
Consistently remembering allows one over Tala consistently
celebrating the praise of Allah subhanho wa taala. When we do that
day in and day out what will happen, repeated action become the
habit and the habit is your character.
So don't just start walking today and then after two days you'll
give it up. persist. But in order for Allah to bless you in that the
Prophet recommended another recipie another advice for us
Allahumma biologically motiv Hebrew Korea, Ya Allah bless my
own ma when they set out to do their work after praying Fajr
immediately after that. Today, we have developed this habit, we
change our biological clock. We wake up all through the night and
sleep through through the day or wake up late and we miss our
prayer Fajr
if you want the last one otter to bless your day, and you can see it
you can experience it within I experience it day in and day out.
When you start your day with Fajr and read the Quran spend some time
in remembering Allah subhanaw taala and then go for a walk or do
that physical exercise and then your work. Allah will bless your
day for you
And then at the end of the day, the prophet recommended go to bed
before that spend some time Bahasa to
examine the performance of the day.
Because you know, as you go to bed, the Prophet of Allah reminds
us this could be, you may not wake up.
You know when the Prophet woke up, opened his eyes first day, first
time.
Spontaneously he expressed that Thanksgiving Alhamdulillah Hilda
the Euro dollar euro fee are finally free just the was Italy,
basically, our praises to Allah altered my soul and to my body
and made me very healthy and sound in body and permitted me to
remember him.
So
suppose you didn't wake up, you are dead. And that is why before
retiring to bed, spend some time examining your day's work.
If you mess it up as forgiveness of Allah, because Allah says, All
My servants, who have wronged their souls, do not despair of the
mercy of Allah. Islam is not the way of despair. It is the real
hope, hope and mercy. We need to hope at the mercy of Allah. But
hope is not wishful thinking. And can you Samandar enough. So what
I'm really my brother Mote, a wise person is who can control his
self, his ego, corner soul, and then strive to work for the
hereafter. Whereas a foolish person is the one who just does
what he wishes, wants to do, and then hopes we leave for the Mercy
of Allah subhanaw taala so begin your day by starting the first
thing in the morning, wake up before sunrise, and pray that Fajr
and ask ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala in the manner of the Messenger of
mercy, Allah Wynia sir Luca Hydra Hydra yo yo Allah, I ask you to
bless my day, your Allah helped me achieve the success. And the
victory opened new opportunities for me for this day. And I seek
refuge and protection with you from the evil potential evil of
the day. You see, this is every single prayer that the messenger
of Mercy recommended for prescribe for us in the morning. That is
going to give you a positive mindset. They say those who study
about resolutions and why they fail is before because they don't
have a positive mindset. And the Prophet told us how to begin your
day affirming positively counting the blessings of Allah subhana wa
Tala. So when you count the blessings, don't learn the
blessings. You are better prepared in a positive mindset to achieve
what you don't have. And the Prophet tortoise. Yes, we can work
for wealth, we can work for a successful career, successful job
successful this leadership or whatever it is Allama young folk,
always aspire for things that are beneficial, have beneficial goals.
Strive so hard by putting your trust in Allah Husqvarna with Ira.
So discipline and that commitment and always seeking forgiveness of
Allah subhanaw taala but Allah wants us to know, then Allah will
forgive you only when you are willing to forgive others.
This is another discipline.
We may
many people may have wronged us. Yeah, surely they have wronged us.
Forgive them. Because otherwise you are carrying that burden
around baggage around and that emotionally draining, spiritually
draining, and health wise it is going to take a toll on your
health. So forgive Firefall was follow. Allah says forgive and
forget. Don't you like Allah subhanaw taala to forgive you. And
you know this worse was revealed when Abu Bakr Siddiq really
allowed who came to know that people have started slandering
Ayesha Ilona, the beloved wife and his beloved daughter Barone, wife
of the Prophet and his beloved daughter. And he will used to take
care of one poor member of his family, distant family member,
monthly stipend he used to give and that man is also
involved in spreading the slander against Aisha Ilona. When Abu Bakr
Siddiq are they allowed to hurt that. From now on, I am going to
cut off this tripod. I lost one or two like immediately revealed the
worse. Don't you like Allah to forgive you, if you want Allah to
forgive you forgive. So forgiveness, developing that habit
of forgiveness and asking forgiveness of Allah every night
before retiring to bed, and then also resolving in your mind to
begin a new day if you wake up and asking Allah subhanaw taala also,
if Allah decides to take your soul, may Allah subhanaw taala
have mercy on your soul, and also brothers and sisters. We need to
develop the habit of consistency in prayer. Prayer is the most
valuable work that we can ever hope to do in this world.
Remember, the wisdom of Abdullah Al Mubarak, one of the greatest
sages in Islam. He was one of the richest man and in the greatest
scholar and greatest ascetic, very rich, very generous, extremely
pious man. He said, If you walk through this wall, and you did not
connect yourself with your Creator, and you did not establish
that connection with Allah subhanaw taala you will miss
everything.
But if you have connected yourself with Allah, then you have
everything.
Everything.
Without that, you may be the richest man. You may have the best
wife most beautiful wife, you may have the boss, beautiful children,
you may have the best mansion in the world, and you may be driving
the best car. But if you miss that,
if you fail to connect with Allah subhanaw taala and did not know
allow Swan over the law. You lost everything. Because we believe you
and I will stand before Allah. That time is coming. So don't take
it for granted.
Don't take it for granted. I will go I will leave this world.
When I go to bed today I should ask myself if I were to die
tonight.
Am I ready to beat my Lord?
If you have a satisfactory answer to this question, well and good.
Surely
the Promise of Allah is true. Yeah. Are you gonna ask all
mankind in nawada Lie Huck, the Promise of Allah is true. The
Heaven is true, the handle is true. Meeting as is true, the
judgment is true. So, if you believe in the promise of Allah,
let not the shaytaan distract you from the remembers of loss. In
