			already, we can feel the effects
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:34
			of the departure of this great
guest and blessing of Allah
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:35
			subhanho wa taala,
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40
			the beloved and the blessed month
of Ramadan. Already, to some
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			extent, we can see
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			the crowds in our massages
diminishing
		
00:01:47 --> 00:01:50
			the level of masiyath and
disobedience of Allah subhanho wa
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:51
			Taala increasing.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:56
			This to a very large extent, my
respected brothers,
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:03
			is because we fail to realize the
objective and the purpose behind
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:09
			these occasions, or these periods
wherein ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:13
			increases his mercy, Allah
increases his compassion, Allah
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:16
			Dalai increases the opportunities
for us to gain his closeness.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:23
			Allah subhana wa Taala gave us
this month of Ramadan.
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:28
			The purpose and the object behind
it is not so that Allah Tala is
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:33
			only worshiped in Ramadan, but as
is mentioned in the Quran, Allah
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:37
			Kum tat tapun, so that you develop
tapwa, so that you gain the
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:43
			closeness of Allah. The point
being that the khayda, the
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:46
			Barakat, the blessings, the
spiritual elevatedness That is
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:51
			acquired in Ramadan has to
permeate throughout the rest of
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:51
			the year
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:58
			once bishar khafi Rahmatullahi was
told in nakomanyata of baduna
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:03
			vayadhunati Ramadan, that they are
a group of people that make
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:07
			ibadahs, that exert themselves in
Allah's obedience. In the month of
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:08
			Ramadan,
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:14
			his reaction to this was bisal ko
mukho mun Laya arifun, Allah,
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:15
			haqqan, illafi Ramadan.
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			He said, What a terrible people
they are.
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:23
			What was said to him, they are
worshiping Allah. He says, What a
		
00:03:23 --> 00:03:26
			terrible people are, those people
who only recognize Allah in
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:27
			Ramadan,
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:33
			what a terrible people. How
ungrateful they are, whose Ibadah
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:41
			and worship of Allah is seasonal
in the Saleh al adiya abut
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:42
			sanatha, kullaha a
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:47
			the true friend of Allah, the true
love of Allah, the One who is
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:51
			truly close to Allah, the truly
pious person, is that person who,
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:53
			whether it is Ramadan or not
Ramadan,
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:58
			throughout the entire year, in
fact, throughout his entire life,
		
00:03:58 --> 00:03:59
			He worships Allah,
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:07
			like the poet says. A dunya
kuluha, Shah rustaki, why do Fitri
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:09
			him? Yo Malikai, Rabbi, him
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:16
			for some Yom akal Adina for some
yoga. Adna la Allah. Kafir din
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:24
			tafu Zubi, WA Nasu, suvamu, wakat
sum to an LED zati dari kuliha
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			wakat sum to an lat dahri
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:31
			kulihakum Zakat fitrusyani.
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:37
			He says this entire life of this
dunya is one month of Ramadan.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:41
			The entire life of dunya is one
month of Ramadan
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:47
			and Eid al Fitr. The day when we
will stop fasting. Is the day when
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:49
			we meet Allah subhanho wa taala.
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:55
			So this short he says, Yo Maka
Adana. This short day, the short
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:59
			period when Ganya is compared to
Akira, it's insignificant.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:04
			It the life of this world, 60 or
70 years. For those who live that
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:08
			long, if you compare it to the
first day of akirat Kam, Singh
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:14
			Alfa Sana, 50,000 years the first
day this life is completely
		
00:05:14 --> 00:05:16
			insignificant, he says, For so
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:21
			the short life Allah gave you the
short day, fast
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:26
			what he means by Fast, fast away
from the disobedience of Allah.
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:31
			Exert yourself in the pleasure of
Allah. Tomorrow, you will be
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:35
			making aid. Tomorrow you will be
celebrating while other people
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:37
			will be swimming in their own
perspiration,
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:41
			while other people will be in
fear. You will be underneath the
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			shade of the ash of Allah.
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:49
			Aisha Ravi Allahu Taala was asked
about the ibadaht of Rasulullah.
		
00:05:49 --> 00:05:55
			Sallallahu alayhi wasallam. She
said his Ibadah was not seasonal.
		
00:05:57 --> 00:06:02
			His Ibadah was with dawahm
throughout the year. All the time,
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:05
			there was a set amount by which he
worshiped Allah, subhanho wa
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:08
			taala. And this is what we have to
aspire for.
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:15
			On one occasion in the time of
Rasulullah sallam, there was one
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:15
			person.
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:18
			He would make ribaud,
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:24
			ask make Toba to Allah dala, then
he would go back to sinning like
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:29
			how most of us do. Then the next
occasion comes again in mektova,
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:33
			Allah AJ and told him, ya
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:36
			ini vatahadim,
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:41
			your example is like someone who
starts putting up a structure in a
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:42
			building.
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:46
			Expends his time and energy to put
up this building, then, with his
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:48
			own hands, he destroys the
building.
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:52
			Then he starts building it again,
and then he destroys it like a
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:56
			person who puts a bucket in a
well, and he starts pulling the
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:59
			water up when it's about three or
few, four meters from the top. He
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:02
			says, My hands are painting. I'm
feeling tired. Let me leave the
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:06
			rope and relax for few minutes.
Take his foot off the pedal.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:11
			Relax. Then he'll go back. Start
pulling the rope again. He can
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:14
			carry on from now till kyama, like
that. He won't get one bucket of
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:15
			water also.
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:20
			So in Allah, some told this person
that, what are you doing? He says,
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:24
			Ya Rasulullah, I realized thereof
My ways now so far, Avani, wala
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:30
			Adim, now I will build, but I will
not destroy the building that
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:34
			taqwa, that piety, that closeness
of Allah, subhanho wa taala, that
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:35
			sweetness of ibadah,
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:40
			which we experience in Ramadan, my
respected brothers, has to
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:41
			permeate the yet,
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:49
			one person came to Rasulullah,
sallAllahu, sallam, he said, Murni
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:50
			Bill Islami,
		
00:07:51 --> 00:07:55
			amalan la assalu, Anhu Ahad And
Badat.
		
00:07:56 --> 00:08:00
			Murni bin Islami, Amram la asald.
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:03
			This hadith,
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:09
			which I have just mentioned, will
translate it just now. Alamai
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:12
			Kiram says this is one of the
Hadith on which the foundation of
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:13
			deen is based.
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:17
			So important is the meaning that
is found in this hadith.
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:23
			One Sahabi came to rasulallah, and
he says, On the behalf of Allah,
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			command me with something in
Islam.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:31
			Command me with something in
Islam, after which I don't have to
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:37
			ask anything more. Give me some
concise advice, which I can hold
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:42
			on to for the rest of my life,
which will preclude the need or
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:46
			the or the requirement to ask
anything more. What does
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:51
			Rasulullah say to him? Qul Aman to
bila? Thum
		
00:08:53 --> 00:09:00
			say, I believe in Allah, then have
his tikhama persevere.
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:04
			This is what is required by
respected brothers. We are to
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:12
			persevere even if it is little bit
AHA bul as the one oh in kala,
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:16
			Asmaa said, the most beloved
actions in the sight of Allah dala
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:21
			is that action which is dawam,
which you will hone on to even if
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:22
			it is little.
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:27
			Islam doesn't require you that in
Ramadan you make 10 khatam, and
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:28
			for the rest of the year you don't
open the Quran.
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:33
			Islam does not require you that in
Ramadan you come to the masjid,
		
00:09:33 --> 00:09:36
			and once the Hilal of E decided
for the next 11 months, you are
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:37
			somewhere else.
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:41
			This is when you are making a
mockery of Islam.
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:45
			In the verse of the Quran was
mentioned Omar of the Allahu gal
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:49
			and on the member of mercy, the
Navami, he recites, in the living
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:51
			Allah.
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:56
			Verily, those who say our Rabbi is
Allah, then they have ista Ahmed.
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			Omar explains histamine. He says,
Wallah.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:05
			He the lahi vita atihi wa Nami Yau
Hu Rogan,
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:09
			he says, Don't be cunning like a
wolf.
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:12
			Don't be cunning like a fox.
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:18
			That your worship of Allah is
seasonal, is the karma means
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:20
			persevere and Amal
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:25
			do not only on occasion, worship
Allah Tala and then exhibit
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:29
			cunnings Run away in the next big
night and the next big occasion or
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:31
			the next Ramadan, you come back to
Allah.
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:38
			This is why, my respected
brothers, because, to a very large
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:42
			extent, our Toba and our Ibadan is
seasonal. This is why the
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:47
			sweetness and the ecstasy which
Allah has kept in his Ibadan, his
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:52
			worship, we are not experiencing
that because we do not persevere
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:53
			on the Amal,
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:58
			regardless of circumstance,
regardless of situation. We have
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:01
			to persevere on the Amal, then
Allah. Allah will give us that
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:06
			sweetness, that sweetness in his
ibadah, which Walla you will not
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:10
			find in anything else. Abu Salim
and zarani Rahmatullah used to
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:19
			say, lay him a little lady him.
Allah, zoom in as love with he.
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:19
			Love with him.
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:26
			Walla, walla ma Lael, mAh Bab,
Tul, bakat, dunya, walatul,
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:33
			munajaat, le sat minute, dunya in
namahimin al Jannah, as Hara HUM
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:35
			laho, Taala le oliahi
		
00:11:37 --> 00:11:41
			used to say, Allah has kept that
sweetness, Allah has kept that
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:47
			ecstasy. Allah Tala has kept that
enjoyment in the night, in the
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:52
			ibadah, the Allah which the people
in the dens of vice, in the places
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			of haram, do not experience,
		
00:11:55 --> 00:11:59
			he is to say, if it were not for
the night and the sweetness of
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:03
			tahajjud and the sweetness of
crying before Allah Tala, I would
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:06
			not have even desired to remain in
this dunya. There's no other
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:10
			attraction left for me in this
world. How many Sahaba of
		
00:12:10 --> 00:12:14
			rasulallah Sallam on their dead
bed? Whether it was the beloved
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:17
			grandson of Rasulullah,
sallAllahu, alayhi, wasallam
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:20
			Sayyidina, Imam Hussain,
RadiAllahu Taala and who on the
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:24
			night before he passed away, or
whether it was mahasin Jabal
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:27
			RadiAllahu Taala Hu or whether it
was Ahmad bin Asad Yallah on so
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:30
			many Sahaba on the occasion of
Juma. There is no time to go into
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:35
			the details each one of them, when
the time came to leave this world,
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:39
			what are they saying? They are
saying, Ya Allah. Ya Allah, if it
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:43
			were not for the sweetness of
fasting. If it were not for the
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:45
			sweetness of your Ibadan, if it
were not for the sweetness of
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:46
			tahajjud,
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:50
			we would not have worried that we
are dying and leaving this world.
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:55
			But the only pain and concern is
that we will no longer experience
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:56
			this sweetness and this ecstasy,
		
00:12:58 --> 00:12:58
			he says,
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:04
			Abu salimah, darani, Rahmatullahi.
He says, Let the Tul munajaat,
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:08
			that sweetness of getting up in
the dead of the night and talking
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:11
			to your Allah and crying before
your law, he says, that is not of
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:15
			this dunya. There is nothing in
this world that can compare with
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:16
			that. He says that is of Jannat.
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:22
			That sweetness is from Jannat,
which Allah Tala gives in this
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:26
			dunya, to those who will persevere
in Amal, to those who are the
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:31
			friends of Allah Tala. What
greater example can we present
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:36
			than that of the master salAllahu
alayhi wa sallam himself?
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:40
			His multivain state is such
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:49
			re Allah come what is the crux of
the verse of the Quran Allah is
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:53
			saying, O Muhammad, sallAllahu,
alaihi wasallam, even if you
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:55
			wanted to anger me, you could not
anger me.
		
00:13:56 --> 00:14:01
			You are forgiven already, past
future. There is no way you will
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:07
			earn my anger that multivariate
status. Yet. Husayn, who says, One
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:09
			night I saw Rasulullah salasam in
Salah,
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:15
			Salah Nabi ya sal Allahu, alayhi
wa sallam, alaylatan. He says, I
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:18
			came and stood behind him, and I
said, Allahu, Akiva,
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:22
			Allah, rasulallah wa alayhi wa
sallam was reading Surah Batara.
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:28
			He says, I taught in my heart
yarkov indal niya, after 100
		
00:14:28 --> 00:14:34
			verses, he was going to rumma
mother. He passed 100 verses. Then
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:36
			he says, I taught in my heart,
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:40
			you slowly behalf. He wrote at
him,
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:45
			he will read half in this record,
half in the next record. We know
		
00:14:45 --> 00:14:48
			how long Surah Baqarah is, almost
two and a half. Shivaras,
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:56
			summa, mada. He carried on. Then I
said here, Kahu after at the end
		
00:14:56 --> 00:14:59
			of Surah Baqarah in me, guruku,
sabta.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:03
			Tahan Nisa, he finished surah
baqarah and Sada, Sura Nisa
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:10
			fakara, aha, you read Sura Nisa
Summa, Tahara Imran. Then he
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:16
			started Sura ala Iran, and he read
that Surah also 1/5 of the Quran
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:25
			in one rakat of Salah. And how was
he reading? He says he
		
00:15:26 --> 00:15:29
			was
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:36
			reading, pausing slowly when he
came past an ayat in which there
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:40
			was tasbih praising Allah Dalai
praised Allah. When he came past
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:44
			an ayah of Jannat. He may go off
of Jannat when he came past an
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:47
			ayat seeking protection from
jahannam. He sought Allah's
		
00:15:47 --> 00:15:52
			protection from Jahannam like that
one first of the Quran would get
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:53
			out like that.
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:58
			Then he says, Allah SWT went into
ruku and he began saying
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:04
			Subhanallah Rabbi Al aveen fakana
ruku, oh ho Nahum in qamihi. He
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:08
			says the length of his ruku was
equal to the length of his Qiyam.
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:14
			Then he said Sami Allah, William
and Hamidah stood up in coma. He
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:20
			says he stood for a long time,
almost as long as his ru then he
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:24
			went into sajda, and he began
saying Subhan Rabbi Al Adi Swaha
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:29
			na Rabbi Allah. And he says the
length of his sajda was the same
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:30
			as the length of his Priam
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:41
			Sahaba say his Mubarak feet would
swell as a result of standing so
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:44
			long period in Salah before Allah,
he
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:50
			used to save joy, let his salah.
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:55
			Allah has kept the coolness of my
eyes. Allah has kept my enjoyment.
		
00:16:55 --> 00:16:59
			Allah has kept my lesson. Allah
has kept my ecstasy in Salah. You
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:08
			my respected brothers, this type
of Salah and this type of exertion
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:14
			in Ibadah is impossible, unless
and unless there is ecstasy, there
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:15
			is enjoyment in it,
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:21
			Abu rahana, as the RadiAllahu,
Anhu goes out in the path of Allah
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:22
			for a long time,
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:29
			and then he returns.
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:33
			They say, separation makes the
heart grow fonder.
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:37
			The wife was waiting. She
beautified herself. Husband is
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:39
			returning after a long time.
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:43
			He asks her permission. Let me
read turakat salah. She gives
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:49
			permission. He starts the turakat
salah. She is sitting next to him,
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:55
			perfume, new clothing. Long time
he hasn't seen his wife yet.
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:59
			Turakat salah, and the next thing
is Azam for Fajr.
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:06
			He makes salaam ready to leave for
the masjid wa Rajat, what time?
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:07
			Amala, namin, Kana,
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:14
			Abu Rehana, you slow in the path
of Allah. Then you return. Now you
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:18
			tied yourself in Salah. I am your
wife, don't I have a share? Don't
		
00:18:18 --> 00:18:19
			I have a right?
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:25
			He says, Yes, you have a right,
but I was not aware of you. She
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:28
			says, I was sitting right next to
you. How could you not be aware of
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:35
			me? Look at the response. Lam
yazel, Yahuwah, fiva wasafa,
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:42
			Allah, Janetta Hu minnaimiha Wala
gatiha Washa, watihatul. Ma he
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:47
			says, I said, Allahu Akbar, and
Allah transported my heart to
		
00:18:47 --> 00:18:52
			Jannat. I saw the rivers, I saw
the streams, I saw the palaces of
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:56
			Jannat, and my heart was floating
in Jannat till I heard the Azaan
		
00:18:56 --> 00:18:56
			prophet.
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:02
			That is why Allah's Qassam, I was
not aware of you. Allah had taken
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:04
			me to Jannat in my salah
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:10
			such Ibadan, many respected
brothers, is only possible
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:15
			when that ecstasy and that
sweetness Allah Dalai gives us
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:24
			jalabi, rasulallah, Imaan, zakat
to Amal Iman manwali, a alayhi wa
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:31
			sallam Nadiya, he who is happy
with Allah as his Rab, with Islam
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:35
			as his deed and his religion, and
Muhammad sallall Islam as his
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:39
			Nabi, his life is brought in
conformance to Shariat,
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:44
			then Allah will give him the taste
of the sweetness of iman in this
		
00:19:44 --> 00:19:45
			dunya.
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:52
			Allah used to say there is one
Jannat in this dunya. There is one
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:57
			Jannat in this dunya till you do
not enter this Jannat, till you
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			don't experience the sweetness of
this Jannat.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:02
			You will not experience the
sweetness of the Jannat of akirat.
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:07
			And what Jannat that is that
Jannat and that ecstasy which
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:09
			Allah Tala has kept in his
ibadans,
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:15
			my respected brothers, why we
don't experience that? Why is that
		
00:20:15 --> 00:20:19
			sweetness no more there for us?
Why is Allah, Ibadah the burden
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:23
			and has become difficult for us
all. I explained there are one or
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:29
			two reasons for this. One is our
failure to stay away from guna and
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:33
			sins. Very clearly, this is
brought forth in the hadith of
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:41
			rasulallah. When he said in
another Iblis must move. He said,
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:45
			guard your gaze. Lower your gaze.
Allah hasn't given you these eyes
		
00:20:45 --> 00:20:48
			to look at the daughters of
others. Allah hasn't given you
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:51
			these eyes to look at haram. He
says, The gaze, the eyes, the
		
00:20:51 --> 00:20:55
			sight, is one of the most
poisonous of the poisonous arrows
		
00:20:55 --> 00:21:02
			of shaitan. Allah, say, Pelli,
Nazar parli, Nazar par dil ke
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:10
			dunya ka ujati On the first wrong
gaze, looking at haram, the inside
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:14
			the spirituality, the darkening of
the heart of the person, starts.
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:17
			And then what do the sulas Ram
say? He says, If you avert your
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:21
			gaze, if you lower your gaze, and
there is temptation in front of
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:26
			you. Allah will give you that
sweetness of iman, which you will
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:28
			taste in this dunya.
		
00:21:30 --> 00:21:32
			Somebody came to Ibrahim in Adham
Rahmatullah, and he
		
00:21:33 --> 00:21:39
			said to him, I find it hard. I
find it hard to get up at salah. I
		
00:21:39 --> 00:21:43
			find it hard to make Ibadat of
Allah at night. What was his
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:47
			response? What would be our
response? Sleep longer in the day
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:52
			or Don't tire yourself. No. What
was his response? He said, latahi
		
00:21:52 --> 00:21:53
			vinahar.
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:56
			Latahi vinahar
		
00:21:57 --> 00:22:05
			Yuki mukavein, he said,
		
00:22:06 --> 00:22:08
			Do
		
00:22:12 --> 00:22:14
			not disobey Allah in the day.
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:19
			Do not go towards haram in the
day, when Allah is giving you the
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:24
			opportunity to stand in front of
him at night, because this Mokka,
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:28
			this opportunity of standing
before Allah at night, is an honor
		
00:22:28 --> 00:22:33
			which Allah gives, and the one who
will sin openly is not entitled
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:35
			and is not worthy to that honor.
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:39
			Somebody came to Abdullah bin
Masood Ali Allahu taala, and the
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:44
			same complaint, I find it hard. I
find it hard to make the ibadahs
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:48
			of Allah. I cannot experience that
sweetness in worshiping Allah.
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:53
			What was the response of Abdullah
bin Masood Adi, Allahu, taala, Hu
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:57
			akhatu Kum Zulu, your sins because
you are disobeying Allah over and
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:02
			over again. That is why you are
finding it hard to worship Allah.
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:09
			That little exertion on the one
side towards Ibadah is there, but
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:12
			my respected brothers,
unfortunately, this attempt to
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:16
			stay away from Allah's
disobedience is not there amongst
		
00:23:16 --> 00:23:16
			us.
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:22
			Yet Allah has kept is that Allah
has kept dignity. Allah has kept
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:24
			honoring his Ibadah in his
worship.
		
00:23:25 --> 00:23:28
			Imam Ahmed bin humble of the
Allahu. Taala Hu Rahmatullahi is
		
00:23:28 --> 00:23:34
			to make dua Allah humma is an
evitatik. Allahuma izanni vitae,
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:38
			wana tuzilani vi masyatiq, he
would say, Oh Allah, give us honor
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:43
			to making your Ibadah through
serving your deen wana to zilani
		
00:23:43 --> 00:23:47
			vi mak do not disgrace us by being
disobedient to you.
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:53
			Let us stay away from Guna.
Ibrahim bin Adam Rahmatullahi to
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:59
			say, allahumman, kulli, min,
zulil, Masya, ILA, ijta O Allah,
		
00:23:59 --> 00:24:04
			take me away from the disgrace of
guna to the izrat and the dignity
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:07
			and honor that you have kept in
your Ibadan in one as it comes
		
00:24:07 --> 00:24:13
			Allah. Tala says, * Aziz. *
Aziz, famil Arad al izah, for
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:19
			literal Aziz. Allah says, I am
Aziz. If you and ijzad then obey
		
00:24:19 --> 00:24:24
			the exas and that being Who is
Aziz, stay away from Guna, and
		
00:24:24 --> 00:24:28
			Allah will give you the sweetness
of Ibadan. Stay away from Guna.
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:30
			Allah will give you the sweetness
of his worship.
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:39
			One tabi, 60 Hajj. He made 60
Hajj. One after the other. One day
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:41
			sitting in the hathim, and he's
thinking,
		
00:24:43 --> 00:24:48
			I have made 60 Haja, I've come to
this place so many times. I don't
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:52
			know, I don't know if Allah has
accepted me. It from me or not.
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:57
			And then he dozes off in his
dream, a voice calls out to him
		
00:24:58 --> 00:24:59
			that you would not call.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:04
			All to your house someone over and
over again, unless you love him
		
00:25:04 --> 00:25:07
			and have accepted Him. So why are
you worried whether your Hajj is
		
00:25:07 --> 00:25:11
			accepted or not? If Allah had not
accepted your * would not have
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:16
			called you here again and again.
The proof of the acceptance of our
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:19
			Amal, the proof of the acceptance
of our Ramadan, my respected
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:22
			brothers, is that, after Ramadan,
we stay away from Guna. After
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:30
			Ramadan, we stay in the worship of
Allah. Allah will give you tofi to
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:33
			come closer and closer to him, my
respected brothers, if you will
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:38
			persevere, if you will stay away
from his disobedience. That is one
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:43
			cause of his The other thing very
respected brothers ulama say, the
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:47
			reason why we find it difficult to
worship Allah subhanho wa taala,
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:50
			the reason why we find it
difficult to bring ista Kamath in
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:51
			our Amal
		
00:25:52 --> 00:25:57
			is because of weakness of Yaqeen,
because there is no effort that is
		
00:25:57 --> 00:26:03
			made on Iman, The talks of Jannat,
the thoughts of Jahannam in this
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:06
			Mubarak month of Ramadan, the
famous hadith of Salman, palsy,
		
00:26:06 --> 00:26:10
			RadiAllahu da on the eve of
Ramadan, Janabi, rasulallah, Islam
		
00:26:10 --> 00:26:17
			exhorted his Sahaba, beg Allah for
Jannat in this month, seek Allah's
		
00:26:17 --> 00:26:19
			protection from Jahannam In this
month,
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:24
			we have to understand my respected
brothers. The exhortation and the
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:30
			command was not just to ask for
Jannat, not just to verbally seek
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:32
			protection from Jahannam,
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:37
			but if you look at Shariat, what
is required, Hassan, basi,
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:44
			Rahmatullah used to say mankala
ini, ohibul, Jannah. That person
		
00:26:44 --> 00:26:49
			who says, I want Jannat, I love
Jannat, but he is not doing the
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:52
			Amal of the people of Jannat is a
liar.
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:57
			That person who says, I fear
jahannam. Ya Allah, save me from
		
00:26:57 --> 00:27:02
			jahannam. But he is doing the Amal
of the Jahannam is he is a liar in
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:04
			his claim that he fears Jahannam,
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:09
			the example is like one person
many years is coming to the muli
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:12
			Saab, Melissa, make dua, I get
children. Make dua, I get
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:15
			children. Give me tawis. Do this.
Amal, do that? Amal, what must I
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:16
			need to get children?
		
00:27:17 --> 00:27:21
			One day he crossed the muli sabs
mind. Asked him, Why are you
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:26
			married? He says, No, I'm not
married. So the man is says, What?
		
00:27:26 --> 00:27:31
			What sincerity do you have in
asking me? You never made any
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:35
			effort whatsoever. So you don't
really want children. You are just
		
00:27:35 --> 00:27:36
			asking,
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:40
			Allah, protect us from that being
our situation, also my respected
		
00:27:40 --> 00:27:41
			brothers,
		
00:27:42 --> 00:27:45
			we may have forgotten Jannat and
Jahannam, but Jannat and Jahannam
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:51
			doesn't forget us. Allah means to
say he exhorted Sahaba, latan,
		
00:27:51 --> 00:27:56
			Saul, Ali, matain, never forget
the two great things Sahaba said.
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:58
			Woman, Azim, aanya, Rasul, Allah,
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:04
			una we of Allah. What are the two
great things
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:09
			he said, Al Jannat, avanna, Jannat
and jahannam. Never, ever forget
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:09
			them.
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:17
			Every day, Jannat calls out to
Allah Ya Rabbi etini, the ALI Wabi
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:45
			ma Watney, fakat, kerahari,
waistavaraki was Sundar. To a Hari
		
00:28:45 --> 00:28:50
			ishtaq Every day Jannat is making
dua to Allah. Ya Allah, my silk is
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:54
			gone too much. My gold is too
much. My silver is too much. My
		
00:28:54 --> 00:28:58
			pearls, my emeralds, my my
maidens, my rivers, my trees, my
		
00:28:58 --> 00:29:02
			palaces, my enamour, my streams
are overflowing. Ya Allah, where
		
00:29:03 --> 00:29:07
			are my inhabitants? Send them to
me. Jannat is making the DUA
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:09
			Jahannam is making the DUA
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:17
			Allah. Ali Sallam taught us what
it means to ask Allah for Jannat,
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:21
			what it means to ask Allah
protection from jahannam. In that
		
00:29:21 --> 00:29:26
			hadith which I mentioned in the
beginning, he said, utilkum Wah
		
00:29:26 --> 00:29:31
			Abu minan Nari, Jo dakum, final,
Jannat, alayana, mutali, buha Wai
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:33
			nanayana, muhariboha,
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:39
			he said, Seek Jannat, with
everything that you Have, Jo
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:44
			dakum, give everything you have
for Allah's Jannat. Don't just
		
00:29:44 --> 00:29:48
			give lip service your life on
Jannat, finish yourself for Jannat
		
00:29:49 --> 00:29:53
			like a father tells his son on the
eve of his last exam for his
		
00:29:53 --> 00:29:57
			degree, what does the Father say?
My son? Burn the midnight oil. Do
		
00:29:57 --> 00:29:59
			what you have to do. Don't fail.
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:04
			Allah many times more is his
compassion and love for his
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:09
			ummats. Oh my ummud. Finish
yourself for Allah's. Jannat Wah
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:14
			Abu Mina, Nari jokum, and finish
yourself in running from Jahannam
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:19
			fainna, Jannat al mutali, buha Wah
inan Nara, laiana, muhari Waha,
		
00:30:19 --> 00:30:23
			because the one who truly desires
Jannat will never rest. The one
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:27
			who truly wants protection from
Jahannam will never rest. Do not
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:30
			fall into the deception of this
Vinya. Finish yourself for
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:35
			accurate. Finish yourself for
Jannat. Everyday, when Hadith
		
00:30:35 --> 00:30:37
			comes in and this, we
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:46
			will terminate some says,
inaudible. At the time of Sehri,
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:52
			at the time of dawn every day,
Jannat is opened up. Allah versus
		
00:30:52 --> 00:30:56
			Jannat is Daddy. Tivan Lee Ali
become more beautiful,
		
00:30:57 --> 00:31:01
			become more fragrant. For those
who are coming to you, Allah says
		
00:31:01 --> 00:31:06
			that cool breeze, that cool breeze
that you experience at the time of
		
00:31:06 --> 00:31:10
			sahih, is the breeze that is
coming from Jannat on the Command
		
00:31:10 --> 00:31:14
			of Allah that Jannat must become
more beautiful and more fragrant.
		
00:31:15 --> 00:31:19
			Sometimes those who finish
themselves for Allah. Such an
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:24
			effort was made on Sahaba. Such an
effort was made on Sahaba, when
		
00:31:24 --> 00:31:29
			they gave everything for that
breeze of Jannat, Allah gave them
		
00:31:29 --> 00:31:34
			in dunya also. And as ginnadara,
the Allahu Taala and who on the
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:38
			field of Ohad, he says to Saad of
the Allah, anhu, wahan Liri il
		
00:31:38 --> 00:31:44
			Jannah. Wahan Liri il Jannah. How
beautiful is the smell of Jannat?
		
00:31:44 --> 00:31:50
			How beautiful is the fragrance of
Jannat in meriham, sad Allah
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:58
			custom, I can smell Jannat coming
from Zayd bin Hari salad, he sent
		
00:31:58 --> 00:32:02
			where Saad bin Rabia look for him
and ask him what condition he is
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:07
			in Zayd in harissa, fine sad in
Rabia. Ravi Allahu, taala,
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:11
			muwadihi, ramak on the last gasp
of life. He says, Nabi Islam sent
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:16
			me. Allah rasoat sent me to ask
you what condition you find
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:21
			yourself in. He says, say to my
Nabi. Say to my Nabi. Ini Aji,
		
00:32:21 --> 00:32:27
			Duni, Aji, duri Hal Jannah, I can
smell Jannat. I can smell Jannat
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:31
			right now, may Allah reward him
more than any other. Nabi was
		
00:32:31 --> 00:32:35
			rewarded. Give my Salaams to him
and say to my brothers of the
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:42
			Ansar, say to my brothers of
anzar, Lala, come in Khun wahi Kum
		
00:32:42 --> 00:32:47
			Ainun, tatraf, there is one hair
on the body of Muhammad salasam is
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:50
			harmed, and you are still standing
tomorrow in Allah spot, I am going
		
00:32:50 --> 00:32:54
			to hold you responsible. Do not
let one hair be harmed on the body
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:59
			of my Nadi while there is still
life in you, that Jezebel and that
		
00:32:59 --> 00:33:04
			zeal and show for accurate Sahaba
Iran had my respected brothers
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:09
			when the correct effort was made,
Jannat and Jahannam was not talks.
		
00:33:09 --> 00:33:13
			Quran was not an irrelevant
message, the desire and the shock
		
00:33:13 --> 00:33:16
			and the dua for Jannat and
Jahannam was not lip service,
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:22
			my respected brothers, if we take
no other lesson, take this lesson
		
00:33:22 --> 00:33:27
			of Ramadan exhorted his ummah, beg
Allah for Jannah, great protection
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:30
			from jahannam. Our Ibadan should
not be seasonal.
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:36
			Ramadan has come. Ramadan is gone.
We don't know if you will live to
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:42
			see another Ramadan. Let the sail
in. Ramadan permeate, bring its
		
00:33:42 --> 00:33:46
			department in our lives, those
Gunas which we stayed away from in
		
00:33:46 --> 00:33:50
			Ramadan, after Ramadan stay away
from them. Also that Ibadan, which
		
00:33:50 --> 00:33:54
			we made in Ramadan, make an
attempt after Ramadan to make that
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:58
			Allah will give us that sweetness
and ecstasy in his ibadah. There's
		
00:33:58 --> 00:34:02
			no easy solution when respected
brothers, the Ummah has to come
		
00:34:02 --> 00:34:05
			back to the masjid. We have to
adopt the envilamat of masjid,
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:10
			Amal of masjid, those same Amal of
Hidayat, the janav rasulallah,
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:14
			established in masjid and abumi in
the time of rasulallah Islam. Our
		
00:34:14 --> 00:34:19
			masjids have to become Abad with
those Amal, the Amal of dawat,
		
00:34:19 --> 00:34:23
			calling to Allah's greatness, the
way of rasulallah, talking about
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:27
			Jannah, talking about Jahannam,
Talim in our homes. These are
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:33
			those aamal, the Allahu. They are
like the shepherd no Ali Salam
		
00:34:33 --> 00:34:37
			being given to this ummat again.
The tide is against us. We can see
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:40
			around us my respective brothers,
the doors of Allah's mercy are
		
00:34:40 --> 00:34:44
			open, but the Ummat has to come
back to the effort of eDay and
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:47
			come back to the Amal of Idaho,
may Allah give us sofiguha.
