Abu Bakr says this, I heard directly from my beloved one year

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

ago on this member. And then he starts crying, Such was his love

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

for Rasulullah, sallAllahu, sallam. And then he said, mahinavi

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

said, isallah, isallah Allah. He said, beg from Allah, cry before

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

Allah, make dua before Allah, for forgiveness and for protection.

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

Why this is a human, human nature. We want to be protected. We want

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

to be safe. We want our families to be safe. But do we let this

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

culture of fear overtake us? Do we become those who hide away in some

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

cave out of fear. Do we become those who become paranoid out of

00:00:44 --> 00:00:48

fear? Do we become those who start pointing the finger now in every

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

direction? Allah, protect us. You went to the masjid. You caught the

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

virus. You went certain place. You caught the virus. You met a

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

certain person, you caught the virus. Do this, do that. You will

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

be protected from the virus, face the reality. My respected

00:01:04 --> 00:01:09

brothers, face the reality. Face the reality. Science has failed in

00:01:09 --> 00:01:12

the face of this virus. The medical fraternity of this world

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

has been shaken to its core. In the face of this virus. Every

00:01:15 --> 00:01:20

system of protection, so called protection, has been utilized, and

00:01:20 --> 00:01:23

yet, still, people are getting this virus. It's not an accident,

00:01:23 --> 00:01:28

it's not a coincidence. It is mallikul muluk Allah waking you up

00:01:28 --> 00:01:33

to the reality that, by the custom of May Allah, no blade of grass

00:01:33 --> 00:01:35

moves in the heavens and earth without the permission of Allah.

00:01:36 --> 00:01:39

No one of you will get this virus without the permission of Allah.

00:01:39 --> 00:01:43

This virus cannot exist also without the permission of Allah.

00:01:43 --> 00:01:48

It is a lie in control. It is a lie in control. Turn back to

00:01:48 --> 00:01:52

Allah. Turn back to Allah. Knock on the door of Allah. Listen to

00:01:52 --> 00:01:55

this khutbah that Abu Bakar Radi Allahu talanu gives on the

00:01:55 --> 00:02:00

authority of Muhammad Rasulullah. He said, ask Allah for protection,

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

and then what does he say, for in vain? Lam, your tabadhali, akin,

00:02:06 --> 00:02:10

Saya, Ramin al Afia, Allahu Akbar, the sums up the entire reality for

00:02:10 --> 00:02:15

us, my Nabi said, My Nabi said, My Nabi said, There is nothing better

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

than protection that Allah will give you as long as there is one

00:02:19 --> 00:02:24

condition, one condition may not be attached to it. Bad Ali Akin,

00:02:24 --> 00:02:29

badali yakin, badali yakin Minal AFYA. Nothing is better than

00:02:29 --> 00:02:34

protection. As long as your Yaqeen in Allah is intact, as long as

00:02:34 --> 00:02:38

your yakin in Allah is intact, it is not that mask that protected

00:02:38 --> 00:02:42

you. It is not your social distancing that protected you. It

00:02:42 --> 00:02:45

is not your isolation that protected you. It is Allah that

00:02:45 --> 00:02:50

protected you. And if you got the virus, it was his design, yakin.

00:02:50 --> 00:02:55

Yakin conviction, because on that day in Allah's court, this is the

00:02:55 --> 00:02:59

thing that's going to count. This is falayam and Allahu ladi in a

00:02:59 --> 00:03:03

sadhaku. Walayalam, this is it where Allah says, We will find out

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

who was true. You said, Laila hail, Allah, Muhammad, Rasulullah,

00:03:07 --> 00:03:14

were you true? You said, fala man you said, Rabbul Mahi wa Rabin.

00:03:14 --> 00:03:18

You said, Rabbul mashari. You said, Rabbul sama. Waki, Sabah,

00:03:18 --> 00:03:22

Wada, Bula Adim. You said, I am SAS Allahu, bedou, fala, Kashi,

00:03:22 --> 00:03:27

falahu, Allahu, why you read kabihali Fati you said, Allah, you

00:03:27 --> 00:03:30

are my Malik. Allah, you are my Hafiz. Allah, you are my

00:03:30 --> 00:03:34

protector. Ya Allah, I can never be harmed without your permission.

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

I can never be benefited without your permission. You read La

00:03:37 --> 00:03:41

Ilaha, illallah, this was your Imaan. You said to Allah, my life

00:03:41 --> 00:03:45

is in your hands. My death is in your hands. You said, all this,

00:03:45 --> 00:03:48

Allah says, We want to see whether you are true in this, at your hour

00:03:48 --> 00:03:53

of need, when my test came, when my test came, when the harlot

00:03:53 --> 00:03:57

came, when the condition came, did you shrivel away in fear

00:03:57 --> 00:04:01

somewhere? Did you start pointing the finger of blame elsewhere? Did

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

you abandon the house of Allah, or did you get up in the dead of

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

night and cry before Allah? Did you frequent the house of Allah?

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

Did you knock on the door of Allah? Did you connect yourself

00:04:12 --> 00:04:17

with Allah? Allah says we were testing you. Halat and conditions

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

are not there for us to focus on the actions of others. Halat and

00:04:20 --> 00:04:24

conditions are not there for us to start pointing the fingers at

00:04:24 --> 00:04:27

others. Halal and conditions. What does Quran tell us? You want

00:04:27 --> 00:04:31

afire, you want protection, you want comfort, you want sucker. You

00:04:31 --> 00:04:34

want May Allah, who is called who in one second, brought this

00:04:34 --> 00:04:38

violence to take it away. You want the condition to be changed. What

00:04:38 --> 00:04:43

does Quran say in Allah and

00:04:44 --> 00:04:51

fussim, Allah says, introspect. Introspect. Look within yourself.

00:04:52 --> 00:04:56

Allah will never change the condition until you don't change

00:04:56 --> 00:04:59

not the next person may not be in the first foot by.

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

Delivered SallAllahu, alayhi, wa sallam in Madinah. Or what did he

00:05:03 --> 00:05:10

say? Man aslakha, mabenah, wabay, Allah, aslaka, Allahu ABA. He

00:05:10 --> 00:05:13

said, you correct your relationship with Allah. You ask

00:05:13 --> 00:05:19

yourself, What did you do? Did you focus on others? Did you start

00:05:19 --> 00:05:22

pointing the finger at others? This is the trap of shaitan. The

00:05:22 --> 00:05:26

requirement my respected brothers, is point the finger to yourself.

00:05:27 --> 00:05:31

Point the finger to yourself and ask yourself, this condition has

00:05:31 --> 00:05:35

come from my Allah. Has he taken me closer to my Allah?

00:05:36 --> 00:05:39

Am I knocking the door of Allah? Have I made over?

00:05:40 --> 00:05:44

Have I changed my life? Have I asked Allah forgiveness for my

00:05:44 --> 00:05:48

major sins? Have I revised my objectives and understood my Nabi

00:05:48 --> 00:05:54

said, Count yourself amongst the residents of the grave. Have I

00:05:54 --> 00:06:00

analyzed my objectives in my life? Am I crying in dua? Have I come

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

back to the masjid, Allah, protect us. Allah, forgive us. I hope I am

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

wrong. As an ummat, we have failed. As an ummat, we have

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

failed our masjids are empty. When it was four, five subsids, two

00:06:11 --> 00:06:14

cells in every direction. We can blame the authorities. Blame

00:06:14 --> 00:06:18

whoever you want. The question is, has this brought us closer to

00:06:18 --> 00:06:23

Allah? Has this condition brought us closer to Allah? That is the

00:06:23 --> 00:06:27

only question. If it has brought you closer to Allah, if you are

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

frequenting the masjid, if you have changed the objectives of

00:06:31 --> 00:06:35

your life, if you have understood that you are on borrowed time,

00:06:35 --> 00:06:39

this time has to be given to the service of humanity. This time has

00:06:39 --> 00:06:42

to be given for the work of Rasulullah, if you have made that

00:06:42 --> 00:06:46

decision with Allah, then by the custom of May Allah, everyone

00:06:46 --> 00:06:50

around you can die. You can lose everything, but you have gone

00:06:50 --> 00:06:53

closer to Allah. I'm sitting on a member 100 customs. There is noone

00:06:53 --> 00:06:56

more successful than you. But if you have be, if this has not

00:06:56 --> 00:07:02

happened, if this test has not taken you closer to Allah, if it

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

has made you abandon the masjid, if it has made you abandon Allah,

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

if your mayor of Quran and DUA and crying before Allah hasn't

00:07:11 --> 00:07:15

increased, if you have entered into a culture of fear. You are

00:07:15 --> 00:07:18

afraid of your own shadow. You haven't connected yourself with

00:07:18 --> 00:07:22

Allah. You haven't understood that he is my Malik. He is in control.

00:07:22 --> 00:07:26

There is still time. There is still time. Allah's clemency,

00:07:27 --> 00:07:30

Allah's forgiveness, Allah's kindness, we can't even describe

00:07:30 --> 00:07:35

it, the condition around us. Wala, this is Allah's rahmat to bring us

00:07:35 --> 00:07:39

closer to him. Nothing May Allah does except sad and good for us.

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

Aja banli, amrill, mumin, my NaVi said, for a believer, everything

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

is good. Tell let it take us back to Allah. Let it, let it cause us

00:07:47 --> 00:07:51

to connect ourselves with Allah. Coming back to that first khutbah,

00:07:51 --> 00:07:54

my NaVi said, correct your relationship with Allah. Each one

00:07:54 --> 00:07:58

of you, correct your relationship with Allah. Introspect. Don't

00:07:58 --> 00:08:01

point the finger at others. Don't worry whether he's wearing the

00:08:01 --> 00:08:05

mask or not. Don't worry whether he social distancing or not. Don't

00:08:05 --> 00:08:09

worry about whether whatever the next person is doing come out of

00:08:09 --> 00:08:12

this. You are going to lie alone in your cupboard. You're not going

00:08:12 --> 00:08:15

to lie in his cupboard. And when Allah questioned you, it will only

00:08:15 --> 00:08:18

be you. He's not going to be there. Allah is not going to ask

00:08:18 --> 00:08:21

you about anything, about the next person come out of this trap of

00:08:21 --> 00:08:27

shaitan, manasla, correct your relationship with Allah. And my

00:08:27 --> 00:08:30

NaVi says, Allah will solve every problem of yours. Allah will

00:08:30 --> 00:08:34

correct your relationship with the entire creation. Allah will never

00:08:34 --> 00:08:38

change the condition of a people until you yourself do not change.

00:08:39 --> 00:08:44

This is the crunch question, has this connect? Has this taken me

00:08:44 --> 00:08:48

closer to Allah as an ummat today? Cry tears of blood when we see

00:08:48 --> 00:08:52

what has happened to our masajid, cry tears of blood Allah, when we

00:08:52 --> 00:08:54

see what has happened to our massage,

00:08:55 --> 00:08:59

what has happened to this ummat coronavirus is Allah's test to

00:08:59 --> 00:09:04

make us come closer to Him, not to run from his house and not to

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

point the figures that others you enter the masjid that just

00:09:06 --> 00:09:11

happened to you. Fear for your Imaan. Fear for your fear for the

00:09:11 --> 00:09:14

day when you are going to stand in Allah's court. Don't fall into

00:09:14 --> 00:09:18

this trap. The Companions of Rasulullah sallallahu sallam said

00:09:18 --> 00:09:21

this. Many Sahaba said this, I'm quoting the words of Abdullah bin

00:09:21 --> 00:09:24

Masood, or the alarm, and when this I will terminate. You want to

00:09:24 --> 00:09:28

die with iman. You want to die that Allah is happy with you. You

00:09:28 --> 00:09:32

want to die when that that when you meet Allah, that is a meeting

00:09:32 --> 00:09:36

of serenity and calmness. That is our goal and our objective. He

00:09:36 --> 00:09:41

says, mansar Rahu. Mansar Rahu can't call karsulenah. Mansar Rahu

00:09:42 --> 00:09:45

and yelka,

00:09:46 --> 00:09:49

laha

00:09:50 --> 00:09:59

radhan, muslimanil Huda, he said, Anyone of you?

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

Many Sahaba said this, Abdullah bin Masood, I'm quoting of the

00:10:03 --> 00:10:07

Allahu Anhu. Anyone of you who wants to meet Allah with his Iman

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

intact, with his Deen, intact, with his akhirat, intact. Then God

00:10:13 --> 00:10:19

religiously, your five Salah in Namaste, because Allah, Allah has

00:10:19 --> 00:10:25

ordained for his Nabi practices of Hidayat that will bring Hidayat

00:10:25 --> 00:10:31

for you and humanity. And this Salah with Jamaat in the masjid is

00:10:31 --> 00:10:35

amongst those practices of Hidayat, Walo salatum,

00:10:35 --> 00:10:40

fibuyotikumal Tom, Masjid,

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

ladum, Abdullah Masur of the Allah, who says, if you will,

00:10:45 --> 00:10:49

start getting into the habit of making Salah at home. And in the

00:10:49 --> 00:10:51

latter part of this hadith, because I'm running out of time,

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

he has mentioned that in our time, in the time of Rasulullah

00:10:55 --> 00:10:58

sallallahu, sallam, it was only the munafiq that would do this,

00:10:58 --> 00:11:02

malum nifaq, whose nifak was known only he would read Salah at home

00:11:02 --> 00:11:06

and not in the masjid. Abdullah min Masood goes on, if you will do

00:11:06 --> 00:11:12

this, Lal Tum, you will go astray. Allah, protect me. Protect you and

00:11:12 --> 00:11:15

protect the entire omen. If you will abandon this practice of

00:11:15 --> 00:11:19

Iraq. Walla, my respected brothers, take the precautions.

00:11:19 --> 00:11:24

Don't argue with one another about this, focus on yourself. Focus on

00:11:24 --> 00:11:30

yourself. Introspect, introspect, introspect. Wallah. This condition

00:11:30 --> 00:11:33

has come from Allah. Protect everyone of us. Make it easy, but

00:11:33 --> 00:11:36

the objective is preparation for that day when we are going to

00:11:36 --> 00:11:40

stand in front of Allah. Has it taken me closer to Allah, or has

00:11:40 --> 00:11:41

it distanced me from Allah? You?
