respected ulama, ikaram, elz and brothers in Islam,
inexorably, the precious moments of this Mubarak month of Ramadan
are passing us by. The month
which Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam addressed his ummat and
said, ata * Ramadan, Shahab, Baraka, Yav Shah, kumullah, bhufi
fayunje lu Rahma wa Yakut al khataya wa yas tajib bhufi hid
Goa,
he said, the month of Ramadan has dawned upon you, the month of
barkats and blessings, the month wherein ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala
encompasses you, covers you, enshrouds you with His mercy,
Allah dala wipes away your sins. So what must you do? Allah dala
accepts your duas. So what must you do for arula, hataalampusi,
kumfihi, mahayra, fihi, faira,
Fahim, Allah's mercy, enshroud. You in this month,
Allah dala accepts your DUA.
Allah dala closes the doors of Jahannam, Allah Dalai opens the
door to Jannat. So what should the reaction be from us?
The way pastoral Islam says, Allah looks at your endeavors in this
month, your endeavors to gain his closeness, to gain his mercy, to
gain his forgiveness, your exertion in iwaj, your competing
with one another. Allah, a looks at this, and Allah boasts about
this in front of his angels. So this is the month wherein we have
to increase our exertions. This is the month wherein we have to apply
ourselves. Spend as much time as possible in the masjid, spend as
much time as possible in doing in the ways of good, in seeking
Allah, Allah's forgiveness,
in seeking the Mercy of Allah, subhanho wa Taala and the beauty
of my respected brothers. If you look in the lives of the Salat
assalaheim, these were those
who when they had applied themselves, when they had exerted
themselves in the worship of Allah subhanho wa taala, then Allah
Taala gave them that sweetness
and that ecstasy in his ibadahs
which cannot be found in any of the things of this world.
Ahluwal, if he lay him, I love them. In ahlulahu, if he love him,
like the Salafi. Salihim used to say that the people of Salah in
the dead of night, those who get up and cry in tahajjud before
Allah subhanho wa taala, who spend long, long hours in Salah Walla,
they have more Lazard and ecstasy in that Salah than the people who
are engaged in Haram in the dens of vice, in the dens of Allah's
disobedience, the so called ecstasy, which they experience
Walla, those whose heart.
Have been linked and connected with Allah. Allah gives them more
sweetness in his worship. The aka tarmal Iman zakat, tar Imaan man
Ravi Abu lahi, Rabbah, Wabi Isla Medina wavi Muhammad Sallallahu,
alayhi wa sallam, Nabi ya om APALA SallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam,
Rabia SallAllahu, sallam said the one who brings Yaqeen in Allah as
his Rab in Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam, as his Nabi, brings Islam
in his life, then Allah will give him the sweetness and enable him
to experience the sweetness and the ecstasy of iman in this world.
Allah, used to say that in this world, there is a Jannat.
In this world, there is a Jannat, the one who has not emptied this
Jannat will never experience the Jannat of akirat. What he meant
was the Jannat that is found in the worship of Allah subhanho wa
taala. That is why, if you look in the lives of our pious
predecessors, many of them, and the time for them, what would come
near they would be crying. When asked, Why are you crying? They
will not say we are crying because we are leaving our homes behind,
or leaving our shops behind, or leaving our worldly possessions
behind. They would say, we are crying because we will no longer
be able to make salah. We will no longer be able to fast. We will no
longer be able to make Tila with the Quran,
the Imam of the muttaqin,
the master of the two worlds, Janab rasulallah, sallAllahu,
alayhi wa sallam. Look at his own words. Look at his own example. He
says, joy, let kura to Ayni, if his Salah Allah has kept the
coolness of my eyes in Salah one, rewind it comes. He says that my
Lazard and my ecstasy is in tahajjud salah, josepa Radi Allahu
taala, who says, salay to man Nabi ya SallAllahu, alaihi wasallam
laylatan. He says, One night I saw Rasulullah sallallahu, Sallam in
tahajjud Salah. So I came and stood behind him, Fatah Al
Baqarah. Allah. Alai Salam began reciting Surah Baqarah. So he
says, faul to your cow in Dalmia. I thought to myself, after 100
verses have passed, NaVi salaam would go into ruku. So I joined
him, thinking, the salah will not be very long.
Kaala, tummada, 100 verses came and went. Then he says, I thought
in my heart, you swalli, Bihari, rakaatan, that perhaps he would
this divide Sura Bakara between the surakat, half in this rakat
and half in the next rakat? We know how long Surah Baqarah is.
Summa, mother,
he says, Navis Lam, carried on reading, carried on reading,
carried on reading. Then the thought came in my heart, ir
covidha, perhaps at the end of Surah Baqarah, nabislam would go
into Ruko.
Summa, mother, he says he completed Surah Baqarah.
Swapstaka, Nisa, fakaraha, summa, tahala, Imran fakaraha, he says,
Allah Islam finished Surah Baqarah, then he started Sura
Nisa.
He completed the entire Surah Nisa. Then he started Sura ala
Imran, and he completed the entire Sura ala Imran. And how? Not like
the tarawi of today, when we look at the clock and we see which
Masjid is finishing first, and that Masjid has a very big crowd,
not like that. He says, yaka Rao muta rashilan, he was reading
slowly, pausing at each verse. Isa Marva bi ayat in fihatas vihan sab
Baha, Vaida Mara vi swalim salah. Vaida Mara vitaudha. He describes
the kirat of Janabi, Rasulullah salami tahajib salah. He says,
Whenever he passed an ayah in which there was praise of Allah
Tala, he praised Allah Salla. When he passed an ayah where in there
was mention of asking Allah for anything, he asked from Allah.
When he passed an ayat wherein there was mention of seeking
protection from Allah for anything Allah AJ rasulallah Islam sought
protection from Allah, pausing like that, Surah Baqarah, Surah
Nisa, Sula, ALA, Imran, one rakat of tahajjud, Salah.
He was here Allah.
His past and future had already been forgiven. He was the Beloved
of Allah. He was the chosen of Allah. What was the need for him
to exert himself like this?
Sahaba Sehat, Tara Kama, his Mubarak feet would swell to that
extent he would exert himself in the worship of Allah. He.
Ruku, fajala
ya full. Subhana Rabbi Al Azim. He began saying, Subhana Rabbi
alazim, glory be to May Allah, who is the most glorified. What type
of a ruku? He says, fakana, ruku, oh Kariba, Min kyamihi, the length
of his ruku was equal to the length of his Qiyam. As long as it
took him to read those three Surahs of the Quran that was his
ruku, thummakala, Sami, Allahu, liman hamida. Then he said, Sami,
Allahu, liman hamida, Allah, the One who has praised him. Fakana,
kyamihi, Kariba Min rukuihi, he says he stood as long in coma as
he stood in ruku then he went into Sajida. And his Sajida also was
the length that of the kirat of the Quran. That was the Salaam
alasulullah, sallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam, my respected brothers,
Satya is Salah is impossible
unless that sweetness and ecstasy which Allah has kept in his
ibadahs and his worship, which cannot be found in anything in
this world until and unless, one does not experience that Satish
Salah is Impossible.
Why is it that we don't find that sweetness? Why is it that we don't
find that ecstasy? Why is it that we have to exert ourselves and
Ibadan of Allah has become like a burden, whereas hours and hours on
a cricket field watching a match or hours and hours in front of the
shaitan box is very easy for us to spend that five or 10 minutes more
in the masjid is difficult, but to spend hours and hours in Allahu,
yat and in the disobedience of Allah has become easy. Why am I
respected? Brothers ulama explained, they say that we are
not staying away from Guna. We are not staying away from the
disobedience of Allah Tala. These eyes are looking at haram. His
ears are listening to haram. This heart and mind is planning haram,
even in Ramadan,
even in Ramadan, we are not staying away from haram. That is
why the obedience of Allah has become a burden that is one
suburban calls and another. My respected brothers Alabama
explained is that the yakin of Jannat and the yakin of Jahannam
has not entered our hearts,
Abu Rehana Radi Allahu Taala and who returns from the Path of Allah
dala.
Naturally, when husband and wife have been separated for a long
period of time,
they say separation makes the heart grow fonder.
She would have been waiting for him. He would have been waiting
for her.
He returns home. She beautifies herself for her husband, who had
been away for a long time.
He says, give me permission to make sure rakat salah.
She gives him permission. He starts the Salah, churrakat of
Salah, he starts after a long period of separation. And the next
thing is the Azaan for Fajr.
He prepares himself to leave for the Masjid. Yaabaa, Rehana,
vazhov, varaja, watayim, amalana, you strove in the bath of Allah.
Dala, you finished yourself in Allah's way. You returned after a
long time now, what energy you had left. You tired yourself in Salah.
You have left no share for me, don't I also have a share, don't I
also have a right?
He says, Yes, you have a right. Yes, you have a right, but I was
not aware of you. She says, I was sitting next to you. How could you
not be aware of me? He says, love me. Yahui, kalbi, Hema was of
Allahu. Janet, walatiha, Samir. He says, When I said Allahu, Akbar,
Allah transported me to Jannet.
Allah took me in my salah to Jannat, and my heart was flying
around in Jannat, looking at the streams of Jannat, looking at the
rivers of Jannat.
I became so immersed in that that Allah's Qatar, I was not aware of
you. The next thing I heard was the azana Fajr,
the Yaqeen of accurate Janam, Rasulullah, sallAllahu, alayhi wa
sallam, created a special link of this month of Ramadan with the
desire for Jannat and jahannam. When Nabi ABA salaam, at the onset
of Ramadan, addressed his ummat and said, increase in this month
four things
was that he rufi Him in arbae if he saw increase four things in
this month, two things
you will please Allah, thereby make excessive. Zika, Raila,
illallah, seek the forgiveness of Allah. And then he said, hustle
attain. Lahina, abhikum and Huma, there are two things you must do
in this month which my ummat cannot do without.
Out,
what are those two things? A command Huma, you cannot possibly
do without it. He said, alone, Allah al Jannah. What? Awana,
behem Nana, excessively beg Allah for Jannat in this month,
excessively beg Allah for Jannat in this month and excessively seek
the protection of Allah from Jahannam in this month.
Unfortunately, our attitude towards deen is very relaxed.
We do not take Deen seriously, our dunya. We take seriously my
respected brothers. We have to understand, if we look at Hadith
and Quran terminology, that when Allah SWT exhorts us to ask for
Jannat and seek protection from Jahannam verbal lip service,
asking is not intended. What is meant when he says excessively,
ask for Jannat to understand that we have to look at another Hadith,
which I mentioned in the beginning, whenever Sala Islam
said ut lobul, Jannat jugdacum,
he said, seek ALLAH Jannat. Seek Allah Jannat, Judah, come with
everything that you have. Wahab, Mina, Nari, jodakum and run from
jahannam. Run from Jahannam with everything that you have. One
final, jannatha, Layana, mutalibu ha Wain, nanara, la Yana, muhari
buha, because the one, the one who desires Jannat, will never rest,
the one who seeks protection from Jahannam will never rest. It's
like the equivalent of a father exhorting his child. You want that
degree, you want that diploma, you want that job. You want that
wealth. My son, burn the midnight oil. My son, finish yourself. If
you want that, then you are sincere in that, in the same way
my respected brothers, if a person from morning till night is making
dua, Ya Allah, give me children. Ya Allah, give me children. But he
does not get married. He doesn't find a wife. He doesn't populate
with his wife. Anyone will tell you that he is not sincere in the
DUA Hassan Basri, Rahmatullah used to say, mankala ini, OHIP una for
wakabib, that person who says to Allah, I desire Jannat ini,
ohipul, Jannah, he says, that person who says, Ya Allah, I
desire Jannat. I want Jannat, but he is Amal. His actions, his
efforts, are not that of the people of Jannat. He says he is a
liar. He doesn't desire Jannat.
Hindi woman, Kala ini apa phunar, that person who says, Ya Allah, I
fear jahannam.
Follow ya kapun NAR Lam, Yamal di Amal yahli na he says, The person
who says that I seek protection from Jahannam, I fear jahannam. He
is making dua, but his actions are the actions of the Jahannam is His
days are spent seeking Jahannam, his nights are spent seeking
Jahannam, and he is making dua of protection from jahannam. Hasan
basi Rahul Ali says such a person is a liar.
On occasion, Nabhi Sala, he said, laat Saul Avi matain O my Sahaba,
never forget the two great things they said. Mala Avi, matanya,
rasulallah, what are the two great things he said, Al Jannat. Awa
NAR, never forget Jannat. Never forget Jahannam, because they do
not forget you.
They do not forget you. Mamin, yomin, illallah, Al Jannat, narya,
pulan Not a single day passes, Jannat falls out. Jahannam calls
out Kapoor Jannah. Jannat says, Ya Rabbi kadhimari wat an Hari was Oh
my Allah, my rivers are flowing. O, my Allah, my fruits have become
ripe. O, my Allah, my maidens are singing happily and awaiting. O,
my Allah have shopped for my residence. Send my residence to
me. Jannat, every day is making this dua. Jahannam likewise is
making dua that Ya Allah, my Azam has been prepared send my
residence over to me. On the other hand, we are living in this world.
Allah protect us and Allah forgive us. As if there is no Jannat, as
if there is no Jahannam, those who are guaranteed protection from
Jahannam, those who are guaranteed given Basharat and their tithing
of their home in Jannat. In this world, what was their kefirth?
What was their manner?
Once again, we return to the example of Imam Al mutaqin Janabi,
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. He says to Jibril on one
occasion, Jibreel sifli Jahannam Oh. Jibreel describes jahannam.
To me. Jibril begins describing jahannam. Nabi ABA Sala Ali
asallam says has be husbi, Lion Sadi o kalbi, fah moot o Jibreel,
enough now, enough now. Lion Sadi o kalbi, fah moot, the fear of
Jahannam is going to make my heart split if you are going to carry on
describing jahannam.
But on occasion he is sitting with his Sahaba. He recites the verse
of the Quran, yay, you and LADEE na Amanu Hu and Fusa KU Ali Kum
Nara wahan, Nasu wa sijara. O believers, save yourself and your
families from Jahannam, the fuel of which is men and stones.
One elderly person,
this is Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam. When he hears
this,
Quran and Hadith were not fairy tales. They were not things that
went through one year and came out of the other year. Sahaba were
affected by this. He says, ashjara to Jahannam, Kahi, jarat, dunya,
honabi, avala are the stones of Jahannam, like the stones of this
world. Allah. Abshi, the Sakara tune means Safari. Jahannam ka
AMI, Jiva, Dinya, kulliha o Kama, Palla, sallAllahu, Alam, he said,
No, my sahabi, by the Qassam of that being in Whose Hand lies, the
life of Muhammad, sallAllahu, sallam, one stone of jahannam. One
stone of Jahannam is more enormous than all the mountains of this
world put together. When he hears this response, when he hears this
reply, the sahabi starts breathing heavily. Allah rushes forward and
says, full, La ilaha illAllah. Kulah ilaha illAllah. Say, La
ilaha illAllah. He says, La ilaha illallah, and passes away on this
spot.
Then navies Lawson says, zalika, Liman, khafa, makami, wa ka FA, WA
Eid. Allah has promised Jannat for the one who will fear the warnings
of Allah Taala and the one who will fear having to stand in front
of Allah,
a youngster takes off his kurta. Is Avi takes off his kurta, and he
lies on the burning sands of the desert,
rebuking himself. Ru ki Anas ru ki Anas onas Tesh, now taste now.
Feel this heat. Feel this heat. Naru Jahannam, ashadhuhallah, the
fear the heat of Jahannam is worse than this. The heat of Jahannam is
worse than this boiling sand. Jifa tumbi, Lael Batala to minnahar in
the day, it is easy for you to disobey Allah in the night. You
waste your time in useless pursuits. Taste this heat and know
and understand that the heat of Jahannam is greater than this,
this Yaqui of accurate, this conviction of akirat Sahabah made
such an effort on accurate everything was given understand,
my respected brothers, the summer of the heart, the wealth of the
heart Allah gives according to the effort one makes.
If from morning till night, it is random dollars that are ringing in
our heads and our tongues and our minds, then the love and the
attachment of that will enter the heart.
On the other hand, like we are told, Go in the path of Allah, go
in the environment of iman, go in the environment of masjid, bring
the halt of Talim alive in your home. Strive for Akira. Strive for
Jannat. Strive for the protection of Janam. If our effort is like
that. Then the Samaras and the world which Allah will give in the
heart is the key and conviction of that. When Saab gave everything
for akhirat
on Ahad Ravi salaam says to Zayd bin Sabi Radi Allahu ALA, look for
Saad bin Rabia and ask him in what condition he finds himself
Zayd when Savitz finds Saad bin rabbi, or the Allahu taala, and
who, in the last gasp of life, he addresses him, and he says, Ravi
Sala Islam conveys his Salaams to you. And he says, Kei faji, do in
what condition are you finding yourself?
He says, Say to the NABI of Allah inni aji DNI, ajiduri Hal Jannah,
tell my Nabi that right now I am already experiencing the fragrance
of Jannat. Tell my Nabi I can smell Jannat already. Convey my
Salaams to him, convey my salaam to him and say to him, Allahu,
anhu, Jaza, Nabi annum, matihi, may Allah reward you. May Allah
reward you. More than any other Nabi has been rewarded. And then
he says, Why? Because everything was given for Akira.
He says, Say unto my.
People, say unto my people,
he says, say to my
people amongst the answer that
is, the NABI
of Allah is hurt if the NABI of Allah is heard and anyone of you
are standing still and allow this to happen tomorrow on the Day of
Judgment, tomorrow, on the Day of Judgment, you will have no excuse
in Allah's court. I will hold you responsible if you allow my Nabi
to be heard whilst you are still standing in the last gasp of life.
This is the Tamanna and desire that was there in the heart of
Sahaba and it's been another he says, wahan Liri Hil, Jannah.
Wahan Liri, Hil, Jannah. Osad, how beautiful is the smell of Jannat?
How beautiful is the smell of Jannat ini, aji Duri, haham in
Duni, he says, I can smell Jannat coming from. I can smell Jannat
coming from. What smell do we experience? What Tamanna and
desire do we have? I'm going to terminate plenty revise few
minutes we have to make us understand what was the
environment of Madina, manovara? How much muzakara of Jannat and
Jahannam would take place so that this became a living reality in
the hearts of Sahaba, the famous Hadith vaksala Islam walks in the
masjid, harissa bin Mani pradi, Allahu daalan, who is sleeping
Allah Sam praje Modi speech,
hadisab wakes up. We have to understand, when a person just
wakes up from deep sleep, he is disorientated. Rabbi Islam asked
him, K for Asmaa Haditha, those who know Arabic, this question
literally translates, how are you? How are you? If we ask, How are
you, we say, I'm okay. I'm fine. Alhamdulillah. What was the
response of the sahabi? Such was the environment of iman in Madina
Manohara, that he immediately understood, even in this drowsy
state, that Nabi Islam is not asking about my health. He is
asking about my Iman.
So what was the response as baht to mukmin and hakkaya rasulallah I
have gotten up in this state that the reality of iman has permeated
my heart only of Allah. Allah says to him in nali, kuliko in hafiqah,
from a hafiq to Ivani, oh, harisa, every statement has a proof. What
is the proof of your iman?
He says, azafat nafsyani Dunya, pass her to lay Ali Padma tuna
Hari, he says only of Allah, understand my respected brothers.
Let us not fool ourselves. Let us not be hypocrites. If nothing
else, learn this lesson of Ramadan that a person's efforts
what he asked for, his efforts, has to be in conformance with
that. If we desire Jannat and protection from Jahannam, our
efforts have to be those of accurate from morning till night.
We cannot be making effort of dunya and make dunya the goal and
the figure and concern for dunya, and then one dua for Jannah, then
expect Allah to give us gentleness. The Sahabi says, I
have the reality of iman. What is the proof of it? He says, Oh Nabi
of Allah, I find in my heart absolutely no attachment to this
dunya. My heart is turned away from the attractions of this
world. My days are spent in fasting, my nights are spent in
crying before Allah. And what did Allah give me? What did Allah give
him? Ni anuru, ILA, arshira. He says, On Nabi of Allah, I am in
Madinah, munovara. Allah skasam. Allah skasam, it is as if I can
see the arshama. Allah
waila Ali, it is as if I can see the Jannat is meeting one another.
Allah mentions our new job, one whom you turn up at Abu. Rula,
tabulnaha, Allah ayun rat walaon, tahidan. Allah ASEM describes the
meeting of the jannatis. Very, very briefly,
Navis lasalan said one of the nyamats of Jannat is the zyarat of
the jannatis, the meeting of the jannatis. This, Sahabi says it is
as if I can see it. What is the description? Navislasen says
horses will be brought. These horses will have wings.
They will be saddled and rained. These horses will be pure. They
will not urinate or defecate. The gennadies will mount them. They
will fly to a meeting place. When they come to that meeting place, a
cloud will come. This cloud will be filled with things which no eye
has seen, no ear has heard of. They will address this cloud. Rain
down upon us. Rain down upon us. Your pleasures. This cloud will
start raining down things which no eye has seen, no ears heard of.
They will enjoy themselves. Then a wind will blow, which will be
carrying musk. They will put this Musk on their bodies, this Musk on
their horse. Now they will separate. They will go in
different directions. Why another pleasure waits for them? What is
that pleasure? Allah, they will reach a point for tonight,
Abdullah, Amala, kafiam in Haja. They will come to a woman of
indescribable beauty women who are such. Noor ruva, jiha mean, Noor
Illa hit Allah. The noor of her face is from the noor of Allah.
The noor of her face is from the noor of Allah. She will address
this Jannati and say, Don't you desire me? He will say, I don't
know who you are. She will say, Anna Zo jathuki, worship book, I
am your beloved. I am your wife. He will say, I don't know of you.
She will say, Don't you know that? May Allah says, pala, talam, ma
uphiyala Hum, named no soul knows that which we have kept for them,
things which will cool their eyes return for their Amal visas. And
says, One gaze at that woman will last for 40 years. Harissa in
Madina says, I can see this. Jarad, I can hear that Jahannam is
barking like dogs protection from Jahannam the VISTA. Assam says to
him, Anta Imran, no other Allahu. Kalbad, Allah has filled your
heart with the lure of Iman and arafta phalsam. Hold fast to this.
Harissa says, Oh Nabi of Allah, make one dua for me. Allah says,
What dua Do you want? Harissa? He says, Oh Nabi of Allah, you have
given me the certificate that Iman as ends in my heart. Now make dua
that Allah accepts my life in his way. Allah accepts my life in his
path. Maybe Islam made the DUA Hari sa was accepted in the path
of Allah. This was the jesva Sahaba, Jannat and Jahannam were
not taught. Jannat and Jannah were not just muzakaras. It was the
reality that it entered their heart when their effort was for
accurate, and they turned their effort away from this dunya so
that Ali RadiAllahu dalam has said to himana, if the way between us
and Akira that will be removed, we saw Jannat, saw Jahannam still our
Imaan would not increase in this month. Maybe it's exhort his
ummah, excessively ask for Jannat, excessively seek protection from
Jahannam, not only asking his agendas. My respected brothers,
let us make the effort for Akira. Make over those things which are
distancing us from Akira, and make effort to endeavor in those things
which will give us Jannat, may Allah give us SoFi go after.
