			One of the greatest challenges that every single Muslim faces every single one of us irrespective of
our age, our gender, our position in society, our level of knowledge, an issue that every single
Muslim faces is how to keep on strengthening the relationship with the loss of Hannah and mattarella
one of the greatest traps of shapen and one of the greatest ways that chiffon enters upon a person
is by weakening and diluting that link between us and our Lord and creator. Allah subhanho wa Taala.
And if he can sever that link, then he will do so. That is his objective in life. It is our
objective in life and our purpose in this dunya to strengthen to the best of our ability, that
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:56
			connection with Allah subhanho wa Taala. And everything within this religion revolves around that
central principle. That is the essence of the heat. It is what we find in the example of our Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. It is what a large silica gel wants from the Quran. It is the role and
the purpose of the Hatim and the scholar, the Imam and the day to connect the people to Allah
subhanho wa Taala to help them to find those things that motivate them and strengthen their
relationship with a large religion.
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:37
			When we look at the life of our profits on a lower hourly he will sell them you will find that even
he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was given things by Allah subhanho wa Taala that then would be used
by his own as well. But he was given means to strengthen and to bring him closer to Allah subhanho
wa Taala. There is no one who is closer and stronger in their relationship with a large religion
than our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, no one who is more beloved to Allah subhanho wa Taala
than our Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam, no one who has a higher state of Eman, or a greater
reward in the sight of Allah or a greater status in the sight of a large religion than our Prophet
		
00:03:37 --> 00:04:15
			sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Yet there are a number of verses in the Quran that show that the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would become sad. And he would it would sorrow and grieve him
what the Muslim king of Quraysh has to say about him. And what would happen to the Muslims would be
something especially in those early years of Makkah, it will be something that would weigh heavily
upon his shoulders. The responsibility that he was given of conveying this message and spreading the
religion of Islam and teaching the people and bringing them to Allah subhanho wa Taala and his
machine, there was something which used to have a physical effect upon him, wasn't just that it was
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:27
			something which was mentally draining something which was difficult to think about or to, to
comprehend, or even physically would manifest itself upon our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:30
			An example of this is
		
00:04:31 --> 00:05:00
			a surah there is mentioned in the Quran, and something which the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
said concerning this song, and it is somewhat unique, this surah and some of the other sources that
he mentioned within the same context, in the sense that it shows us how the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam used to connect with the loss of Hannah hautala and in particular through the
Quran, because the Quran is one of those means and one of those ways through which you can
continuously strengthen your
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:39
			relationship with a large surgeon. It is easier for the vast majority of people vast majority of
Muslims to have a strong connection with Allah in the month of Ramadan. It is easier, it is easier
for them to have a stronger connection with a large religion when they go for Umrah or when they're
performing hajj when they're sitting by the curb. It is easier when they're praying in the mosque of
the Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam. But the challenge that people face that me and you face is
how to keep that strength of a man going when we're not in those places. We're not in that
situation. We're not in those seasons of worship like the month of Ramadan. How do we keep that
		
00:05:39 --> 00:06:23
			connection strong with Allah. One of the greatest means is through the Quran. Allah subhanho wa
Taala taught this to the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam by revealing to him certain sutras at
certain times. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam lost his wife, Khadija rhodiola Juana and
then a few months later, he would lose his uncle Batali in the books of Sierra in the life of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam his biography this year. It is known as the Amel hosen The year
of grief in the year of sorrow, two of the closest people to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
died, he passed away a few months apart. It is after this that a large religion gave to the Prophet
		
00:06:23 --> 00:07:04
			salallahu alayhi wa sallam three things that would help console him and would help him to become
even strongly in his connection with Allah subhana wa Tada. And it is as if a large soldier is
saying to him, that yes, Khadija, the Allahu anhu was the one who would inspire you and you would
confide in her and she would motivate and encourage you, unless it was about Allah, who in public
outside in the public eye, he will defend you and He will protect your honor. But it is ultimately
Allah subhanho wa Taala, who protects and gives divine care and protection. So even if all of them
were to pass away these people and other than them from amongst the Muslims, Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:45
			is with you. Alonzo would you gave to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam three things. One is
specific to him, we as his own mudroom and sharing it. But two of those three are things that we to
participate in, we have a share of them. The first of them was the surah and Mirage, the Night
Journey, in a single night the professor limit from Mecca to Jerusalem to the seven heavens and
back, that is unique to him. But it was done to show the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the
amount of love and care and protection that a large religion has for His Prophet sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam it within that journey. And then after that journey, there are two other things that a
		
00:07:45 --> 00:08:27
			reasonable one of us can take from, in our problems in our issues, when we're struggling with our
Eman when we perhaps look at the world events and find that there's a test that has come to us that
we need to face up to as individuals personally doesn't necessarily mean that it's something you
share with other people but you yourself know in your heart, your level of Eman your connection with
a large religion, you can audit yourself. Allah subhana wa Taala gave to the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam and by extension to this ummah, the Salah, the prayer that five times a day and
night you have that connection that is unique between you and Allah subhana wa Tada. It is a
		
00:08:27 --> 00:09:05
			connection between you and a large soldier there even though every single Muslim is praying, and you
may well be in a ministry than praying with hundreds or maybe even 1000s of other people. Your
prayer is your personal connection with Allah subhanho wa Taala. And that is why people pray, but
they differ in their levels of reward and what they take from the prayer. people pray, but the
benefits that they take from the prayer will also vary. And the second thing that the prophets are
the third thing that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was given was the revelation of certain
sutras. After the death of those two people. Certain sources were revealed to the Prophet sallallahu
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:06
			alayhi wa sallam,
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:49
			the contemplation of the Koran, understanding the Quran reading the Quran, and merging them with
these a hadith where the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam pinpoints a surah or a verse or a
passage and he says that this is how it affected me. Or these are the benefits that you can
extrapolate from it. That is contemplation of the Quran. Understanding the Quran at a deeper level,
because reciting the Quran without understanding and contemplation will only take you so far. The
hadith of Xia dibala beating center even manager Xia debido libido the Allah Wang said that our
Prophet said sallallahu alayhi wa sallam spoke about the signs of the hour. And he mentioned a
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:59
			number of them and then he said that they are in the Ahwahnee the habit that will happen when
knowledge is taken from us. knowledge will be lifted. So Ziad he said
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			The last one that I said O Messenger of Allah, keep
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:29
			on wondering who am Nana Abner? Abner? Quran Allah yo p ama, or messenger of Allah? How can
knowledge possibly be lifted? How can knowledge be removed? When we read the Quran and we teach our
children to read the Quran, and our children will then teach their children how to read the Quran.
And that will continue until Yama pm.
		
00:10:30 --> 00:11:13
			And that's the case. We learned the Quran from the generation above us, our parents, our teachers,
people who are older than us and age. Now we teach it to our children. They will teach it to their
children from generation to generation, the Koran passes on, and that is from the miracle of the
preservation of the Quran. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam replied and he said that he let
Kamikaze and in the controller era anthem in Medina, may your mother be relieved of you. And this
was an Arabic expression or Arab expression to show someone the gravity and the seriousness of the
situation and how important it is that they grasp what is being said. May your mother be believed
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:19
			Have you over the OCR? I used to think that you are one of the most knowledgeable people in the city
of Medina.
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:36
			Elisa Harvey Hillier, who damansara your own authority will Injeel lie interferon I mean, Javi Shea,
don't we have amongst us the Jews and the questions will read their scriptures, the Torah and the
Injeel. But they take very little benefit from it.
		
00:11:37 --> 00:12:17
			So the prophet SAW Selim is saying it is not simply about the act of reading, reading will only take
you so far. And the Quran is blessing even in its recitation, we know that for every word that you
read, you have 10 rewards of the Quran. And those people who memorize the Quran according to their
levels of memorization, Allah will increase them in Rankin station on Yom Okayama. In general, these
are virtues of the Quran, but they will only take you so far. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam would stress to his companions, the importance of understanding and contemplating the Koran.
And that's why the companions would often take months and sometimes years over a symbol surah
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:49
			delving into its meanings, pondering and reflecting over what Allah subhanho wa Taala is saying, and
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would turn their attention towards certain songs towards
certain passages and verses so that they would go back and contemplate it even more. One such
example that I want to bring to your attention is the surah that was revealed after this year of
grief and sorrow, after the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam went on his Asana Raj, after Allah
had obligated and legislated the Salah upon all of the Muslim ummah.
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:56
			Allah subhana wa Taala revealed to him from amongst the sources that were revealed a surah by the
name of Surah
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:38
			Surah Hood in the Quran isn't one of those, maybe you could say more popular, more famous Searles?
In the sense that people don't normally wish to read or listen to the recitation of the surah it's
not like Surah Maryam or a man or calf or other sort of use from the Quran that people are more
familiar with. But the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam made an interesting observation
concerning the soil in the head ether is collecting the tiller million are hacking and other than
that, on the authority of Abdullah Abdullah bass rhodiola one Houma, who said that the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was one day in the company of his companions and Abubakar robiola, Wang
		
00:13:38 --> 00:14:18
			said to him, schibetta Rasool Allah, or messenger of Allah, you have gone owned, meaning that your
hair has white in it. Now the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was the most most youthful of
people, and the most courageous and the strongest of people even from amongst the companions. He was
known for his courage and for his strength, and for his youthfulness. And the companion say that at
the time that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam died, has honestly been mallinckrodt, the
laguan said in the narrations and body, the prophecies sent him didn't have more than 20 white
heads, in his head and in his beard, no more than 20 the younger companions would sit, and they
		
00:14:18 --> 00:14:59
			would count the white hands of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Such was the love and the
adoration and admiration for the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And assuming Malik said he
didn't have more than 20 white tears, the vast majority of them were in his hair that were attached
to his lower lip 20 hands, even that slight change was noticeable to the companions. That slight
graying of the hair of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was noticeable to the companions. And
that's because the companions used to pray, pay so much attention, so much care to every single
statement and every single movement of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. It was
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:36
			action is normally unusual. It's unusual for a person that you see every day to notice slight
changes about your family members who see you everyday, your wife, your husband, your children,
because they see you every day. They don't normally notice the slight changes within you. If you're
going more bold, you're going more gray, you've put on weight, you've lost weight. There is normally
others who when they see you after a few weeks will look at you and say, You look different. There's
something different about you. But those people who see you every day for them, it's more or less
the same. The subtle changes are difficult to notice. But the companions despite seeing the profits
		
00:15:36 --> 00:16:20
			on a low hourly we'll sell them on an almost daily basis, they would see even the slightest of
change. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam replied to Abubakar, the alarm rang, and he said,
Shay Bethany rudan mahato it is Suraj like Sora who would that have made me grow old? Now surah who
is a surah that was revealed after Islam mirage. But the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is
contemplating and contemplating and contemplating. We've all been around the surah so much that
years later, when people notice a physical change, this is how the Orion affected the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that he would manifest within him a physical change. So the prophet SAW
		
00:16:20 --> 00:16:35
			Selim says, That is not my worries that made me grow old. It's not age that has made me grow old or
white, but rather, it is the Quran shaiya Bethany houden wakawaka another narration he said she
Bethany, who will work
		
00:16:38 --> 00:17:22
			alone will either shampoo kuvira five sources of made me grow old from the Quran, Surah Hood, and
wealthier and more solid, and I made this alone, and either Shem suku five Searles have made me grow
old. This is how much the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam connected with the widow sutras from
the Quran. If you were to look at these Sutras, and you were to analyze them, and in particular
Surah Surah, who is the surah that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam received at this time in
his life, because Allah subhanho wa Taala gave to him within this surah the example of those who
came before him, the stories of those who came before him know who would solid Ibrahim Lord Shri
		
00:17:22 --> 00:18:03
			Musa alayhi wa salatu salam prophets who came before him and the stories and interactions that they
had with their people. Because now that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had lost a Batali.
The correlation increased in his in the oppression and transgression towards the Muslims, and they
even harmed the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam more personally than they will do during the
life of a butare. nahi God Allah has passed away. So when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
returns home, he only finds his children doesn't find his wife, he finds orphan children who have
lost their mother rhodiola one homage mine, yet still the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:46
			continued upon his path, because a large religion revealed to him sources like Surah Hood, Allah
Subhana Allah at the beginning of the soul, and I just want to draw your attention to two or three
critical points within the surah Allah subhanho wa Taala mentioned at the beginning of the surah
that every single thing that we need, in order to keep that connection strong with Allah, and that
we need in order to be successful Muslims, you will find it within the Quran Alif la Kitab on
schemata Yato sama facilite millennial Hakeem hobby, this is a book that it's verses are manifest in
clear and then they have been explained from the one who is all aware all wines, every single thing
		
00:18:46 --> 00:19:32
			that you need, as a Muslim, to be successful not only in your religious life, but in your worldly
life you will find within the Quran. So Allah Subhana Medina by begins by mentioning a couple of
those things that are extremely important, Allah taboo in Allah, that you should worship, only Allah
subhanho wa Taala. And then Allah says when you start a funeral or a back home, from matobo, la uma
Mata and Hassan Illa, jelly muslimah kalevi phenylene favela and that you should seek a loss
forgiveness and repent to Allah subhanho wa Taala and Allah azza wa jal will give you good and he
will increase you in good and He will give you enjoyment within this life, and He will give you from
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:59
			his bounty, and from his grace, provision, success, happiness all of this revolves around your
relationship with a large soldier. And that's when London says when I'm in da button, fill out the
Illa Allah here is where Allah Mustafa Ramos dada dada, that there is not a single creature on the
face of this earth except that it is Allah who provides for that creature. It is a large village and
who provide
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:38
			For his creation, it is in the hands of Allah to give happiness to people, to give them success, to
grant them to the way that will be the Serato, who stopped in the street path. And then a lot of
zildjian mentions, the two types of people when it comes to this message of the Quran, when it comes
to the message that was bought by the prophets of Allah subhanho wa Taala, those people who will
accept and they will persevere, and they will work, and they will put in effort and determination,
and they will sacrifice for the sake of a large soldier. And then you have those people who will
turn away, who will choose a different path, who will rather want to enjoy everything they can in
		
00:20:38 --> 00:21:17
			this life, and won't give any thought to what will happen after their death. Allah subhanaw taala
mentions both of them. But then he goes on to mention those examples in practical terms with the
people of New Delhi, his center, the people of know how to his solemn, refuse to believe in No. And
one of the reasons that they refuse to believe as Allah mentions in this surah is because their
people, the people who followed no Halley's ceram, were the weak and the poor. So they said, I don't
mean to like have a tabernacle of their own. Should we believe in you, when your followers are the
weak, when your followers are the poor, when your followers are those who don't have a noble station
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:41
			in society. But a large majority doesn't care about those things alone mention the story of who that
who that is salatu salam, who his people were people who are known to have military prowess, they
had the ability to construct fortresses everywhere. And Alonzo just says in the sort of the toolset
to them, that if you return to Allah and seek His forgiveness, he has it come to what and
		
00:21:42 --> 00:22:22
			then Allah will increase you with even more strength in addition to the strength that you already
have. But when they turned away from a large soldier, a lot didn't care about the way about the
military power, about the strength about the fact that they could go and conquer other lands and
other people's. Allah mentioned the story of Saudi Halley's ceram. And these people were given
technological advances to the extent that still today in the world, you can go and see the dwellings
of solidarity, his setup and his people, but that inside it with the built houses and palaces into
the sides of mountains carved into them 1000s of years ago, when they turned away from Allah subhana
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:53
			wa tada when they rejected the Prophet sallallahu sallam, Allah subhana wa tada didn't care about
those technological advancements that they had. You have the story of Srimati his sternum, whose
people were given economical means they had money, and they had wealth and they were extremely
prosperous, but they will do so by cheating others and by being unfair in the way that they used to
buy and trade and sell so large so Jill mentioned in the Quran that Sheree Valley is sometimes said
to them way or call me often Michela will
		
00:22:54 --> 00:23:36
			be just in the way that you weigh you just in the way that you buy and sell. But they too, tend away
from the profit and loss of Hannah Tyler. So Alonzo just didn't care about the well. So what does
Allah subhanho wa Taala care about? And all of these things are being leveled against the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and the few Muslims that he has with him. During that time in Mecca.
The Quraysh are more powerful, the more noble they have better weaponry, they have more advances in
every single form. The Companions of the postal system, the vast majority of them are weak and poor,
the women and children and slaves and so on. Yet a large religion is showing through the surah that
		
00:23:36 --> 00:24:15
			Allah subhanho wa Taala only cares about those people who believe in Him, who turned to him who hold
on to the path of Allah subhanho wa Taala. They are the people who are given success. They are the
people who if they strive, and they are they preserve and they are determined to reach what a large
soldier has promised them, that Allah subhanho wa Taala will make their path easy for them. The
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam took away these lessons, and he would think and he would ponder
and he will contemplate so much that he made a physical difference in his appearance, not only in
his appearance, but even in his mindset. As I showed the law when he mentioned to us that the
		
00:24:15 --> 00:24:52
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would sometimes see a cloud. And when he would see the cloud, he
would become agitated. And he would walk in and he would walk out of his house and he would become
upset. So she said, O Messenger of Allah, when the people see clouds, they rejoice because it's
bringing rain, especially in a climate like Arabia, where it's desert and hot when people see when
they rejoice, they see clouds, they become happy, but you are missing Java law, you become agitated
and upset. He said, Oh, are you sure Verily, there were people who came before us who would see
clouds like this thinking that it bought when and mercy from a large religion, but within it that
		
00:24:52 --> 00:25:00
			contained punishment for them. He's referring to the people of who that are his center. Those people
have who will give him
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:30
			drought and famine. That's how they would destroy a drought and famine. And who that is solemn
promise them that the punishment of Allah would come. They saw drought and famine for a number of
days. And they were extremely hard up. But then eventually clouds came. So when they saw those
clouds they rejoice and they said to hood, we knew that you were lying. clowns have come rain has
come, relief has come therefore you are not true. Your God is not true for them our overall Villa
Odia team.
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:38
			They wanna they saw those pounds. They said these are clouds bringing when Bell Hua Mr. gel to meet
		
00:25:39 --> 00:26:23
			him to them euro kulesza MBM euro. for Euro in law, Mr. kinome of law says berada is what you
hastened what you wanted mean the punishment of Allah. When you would say to who if you're true,
then ask a lot to punish us. If what you're seeing is true, show us this punishment of a lot. Rather
it is what you hastened. It is an extremely painful torment and a wind, it will destroy everything,
everything so that the next day you will not see anything standing except the houses other than the
rowboat. Everything was destroyed. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and he would read sources
like Sora hood, he wouldn't just read them and pass on. But he would understand and contemplate, to
		
00:26:23 --> 00:27:02
			the extent that if you saw something that is mentioned within that Sora something that happened to a
people who came before us by 1000s of yours, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would fear the
same for his own man, the process of psyllium would contemplate and he would change his physical
appearance. This is how a person connects to the Quran. This is how we strengthen our relationship
with the Quran. Allah subhanho wa Taala has given us the Quran has given us the sauna has given us
all of these means, but often the way that we treat them is very haphazard. We don't connect, we
don't stop to think and to ponder, even though a large religion says in the Quran, a fella to the
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:13
			burner or an Amana pulumi not follow her. Do they not contemplate and ponder the Quran? Or are their
hearts locked? resealed? barakallahu li walakum wa soon whenever I need

			is not meant to discourage people from reciting the Quran, or reading as much of the pronoun that
they can as they can to memorize the Quran for other areas to add another aspect and a different way
of also interacting with the Quran, one that is equally important, and perhaps in some cases, even
more so. And that is the importance of understanding and contemplating what you understand, not just
simply reading a translation, or even a book of difficile, but to stop and to think about it.
Abdullah bin Amaro de la Juan Houma, and in some narrations that has said that it was his father,

			10 years of the Rama La La Rahim Allah, one of the famous spellers of the tiberian. From the
students are from the students of many of the great companions. He was once reciting Surah Hood. And
a woman passed by and she said an elderly woman. And she said to him, oh, ebina be Layla. Do you
recite Surah Hood with this speed and he was reciting normally, he wasn't reciting very fast he was
reading normally. She said, Do you recite Surah Hood with such haste? It's taken me six months. And
I'm still on this for six months, and I'm still on the single surah because that's how the
companions were. That's how the scholars were yesterday would have a portion of the plan that they
		
00:28:57 --> 00:29:37
			would read daily, in order to finish the recitation of the Quran as often as they could. But they
would also have portions of the Quran where they would stop and ponder and they would contemplate,
and some of the companions would simply take a surah and they would spend as long as they needed in

Miss rhodiola answer. Don't read the Quran with haste. It is not poetry that you're reading, nor is
it a fable or a story that you're simply trying to read to pass time. But rather stop and ponder
amazing signs of Allah contain with every single verse. That is how you ponder the Quran. you
		
00:29:37 --> 00:30:00
			contemplate the Quran. If the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam tells us that a surah like Surah
Hood made him grow old, that it's something that brought fear within him. He would make him fearful
at times. They shouldn't we as people who love Allah, the Quran, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam want to go back to sources like Surah Hood and see why. What does Allah azzawajal say? What
is the
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:34

brothers and sisters in Islam is to connect with them. And it is one of the greatest ways of
strengthening your Eman and keeping that relationship with Allah strong, but not just simply by
reading the Quran. Also by contemplating and understanding the Quran, verse colarusso generally
