00:01:23 --> 00:02:01
			this being the first Juma of the explicit month of Ramadan. I want to begin with a hadith of our
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam because it was his common practice that especially for this
month of Ramadan, he would greet his companions with this month. Now this wasn't always the general
practice of our Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam for every act of worship, he wouldn't for example,
greet his companions or his followers after the obligatory prayers. And this is something which is
prevalent in some communities, that when they offer one of the obligatory prayers in congregation,
they greet one another after the Salah. It's not from the Sunnah. Maybe you can do it once or twice
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:38
			as a one off thing but it's not from the Sunnah of the Prophet son alone, he will send them wooden
greetings companions during the time of Hajj. For those people that don't perform Hajj wouldn't just
go and greet them on any and every occasion. But one time in which he would speak to them and he
would greet them. At the beginning of a season of worship is this month of Ramadan. What is
collected in the Muslim Imam Muhammad in the center of the Mammon necessity on the federal level
before a lot of the law what under our Prophet said sort of the law while he was selling them for
the commission mobarak for the commission Ramadan Mubarak, for the law when it comes
		
00:02:39 --> 00:03:25
			to photography ababu sama, wa Taala Kofi available jehane mahalo fi shoppin fi Laila to Roman
official, man holy Messiah raha for the Quran, he said that indeed that has come upon you a blessed
month, the month of Ramadan, and a large surgeon has obligated upon you to fastest month within this
month on large scale regionals open wide the gates of Paradise, and he has closed shut the gates of
the fire. And he has ordered and commanded that the devils be chained. And then he sits on a log
while he will send them within this month is a single night, it is equal to 1000 months, whosoever
is prevented from attaining the good of that night than they have been prevented from all good. So
		
00:03:25 --> 00:04:02
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would speak to his companions, he would address them and he
would speak to them about the importance of the explicit man. And that's because this man has an
amazing opportunity for reward. And it has many lessons, and many things that we can take and
benefit from it. And all of those lessons go back to a single point. And that is the point that I
want to bring to your attention in this hotbar. If you think of all of the footballs that you've
heard over the years concerning this month of Ramadan, and the different aspects and the different
virtues and the different benefits, the different acts of worship that you've heard of being spoken
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:34
			of, in the context of Ramadan, from charity to fasting from prayer to the recitation of the Quran,
from Toba and seeking a large xeljanz forgiveness. If you think about the do's and the don'ts and
the concessions that are offered in this month of Ramadan, they will come back to a central point.
And that is one thing that trauma bond brings to us and to our attention is the beauty of Islam. The
beauty of the Sharia. There are many occasions in which you can see the beauty of Islam, the few are
as big and as
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:59
			emphasized as the month of Ramadan. The beauty of Islam. This is a month in which we're told to
excel in our good deeds. And that is from the beauty of our religion, that Allah subhanaw taala has
given to a seasons and times and places in which we need to up our efforts. We need to put in some
more time some more effort into attaining a large amount of pleasure
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:40
			This month of Ramadan is a prime example of that. We as humans, all of us without exception of
people of sin, we sin by D and we sin by night we sin an open and we sin in secret. We sin alone and
in seclusion, and we sin openly and publicly. And in congregation, we have so many sins that if you
were to try to write them down, to remember them to enumerate them, it would be beyond our
capabilities. And that is our nature as humans. And a large religion has given us opportunities
throughout the none greater than the month of Ramadan, to seek forgiveness, for those deed for those
sins that we've committed. Our Prophet told us a little lower, it was seldom, and perhaps one of the
		
00:05:40 --> 00:06:00
			most oft quoted ahaadeeth when it comes to this month of Ramadan, men sama Ramadan, Eman and the
Saba of your Allah who Metapod them among them a woman Hama, Ramadan Eman and de Saba warfare
Allahumma to put them in them a woman commonly referred to the man and mighty Saba of your Allahumma
Taka.
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:45
			Whosoever fasts this month of Ramadan, having a man believing in a large set of agenda, knowing that
Allah is alone worthy of worship, and then making the worships and CD for him and having the stab
hoping in the reward from Allah, knowing that Allah is the one alone who gives and grants reward,
but at the same time fearing his punishment, in case the good deeds or our good deeds are accepted,
at the same time fearing his punishment, his anger and his wrath in case we fall below that minimum
level that is desired of us as Muslims, Whosoever has those two components of faith and hope and
fear. And the fastest month of Ramadan, Allah will forgive them for all of their sins. And whosoever
		
00:06:45 --> 00:07:25
			stands the nights of Ramadan, in taraweeh prayer, praying to a larger agenda, again with those two
conditions of Eman and hope and fear that a large religion will forgive them for all of those sins.
But such as the greatness of this month that our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam then went on to
see and whosoever stands just the one night of Lila to recall, just that single night, but they have
a man and belief in Allah. And they have those components of hope in the laws reward and fear from
Allah punishment, then Allah will forgive them for all of their sins. And that is why our Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who already had all of his sins forgiven, who already didn't need to
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:40
			feel a loss punishment was already given salvation by a loss of Hannah Montana, in this month of
Ramadan, he too would exam he too would realize that this is too good of an opportunity to pass by
Abdullah Abbas or the Allahu anhu.
		
00:07:42 --> 00:08:22
			Turner Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam adroitness what kind of Adama, Kumasi Ramadan, our
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was the most generous of people. Outside of Ramadan, he was the
most generous of people. No one ever came to him to ask for something, except that he gave it to
them. And if he didn't have it, he would ask for someone else to give it to them. No one would come
to him with some need, or some issue or some problem or some advice that he needed, except that they
would find the profits and a lot while he was selling them open and willing. He epitomized
generosity in all of its forms. But then he said he was the most generous when it came in the month
		
00:08:22 --> 00:09:02
			of Ramadan, you will think that generosity couldn't be surpassed, there was a more that he could do.
But in the month of Ramadan, he would do more. He would do more not only in charity, but in terms of
his players in terms of his recitation of the Quran, in terms of generally coming closer to Allah
subhana wa tada as an example for me and you. And that is part of the beauty of our religion. A
large religion has given us this amazing opportunity to gain reward given us this opportunity for us
to seek forgiveness for our sins. And you may think that it's only one Ramadan, that is only one
month, there is only a few days of fasting or a few nights of prayer. But there is a big difference
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:38
			between those people who fast, even one month of Ramadan, as opposed to those people who are large,
there was a decree that they passed away last year, and then are able to see another month of
Ramadan, and what is clicked in suddenly blue. Imagine the Muslim measurement on the authority of
God hegner obey the law, the law one, he said that there were two companions in the time of the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. One of them was more ardent in his worship strove more in his
worship than the other, and that one who strove more died, passed away. And then a year later, his
brother, his friend, also passed away, but hard on your loved one was one of the 10 companions,
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:59
			promised paradise and amazing senior companion. He said that I saw the two of them in a dream, and I
sold the one who died a year later, even though he apparently seem to be less in motivation less in
his acts of worship, he was given a greater reward than the one who died the year before. So he
mentioned this to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:40
			And the profit settings on a low hourly or send them did mock this man who died a year later. Please
so many prayers that his brother didn't pray. I did not this one who died a year later, fast another
month of Ramadan, that his brother was unable to pray fast. The companion said yes, so messenger of
Allah, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. So the difference between the two is like the
difference of the heavens and the earth. That amazing opportunity, that one month of Ramadan, that
someone else wasn't able to give, wasn't able to have a larger which gives the reward, its
differences like the heavens and the earth. And that is part of the beauty of our Sharia. But also
		
00:10:40 --> 00:11:20
			from the beauty of our study are that this month of Ramadan brings to our attention is that the
Sharia is easy. It is a Sharia and a religion of mercy is the Sharia when things have been made into
such an extent, that there are things that we can manage with and cope with a loss of data tells us
in the Quran, Masha, Allah, Allah, demon Herat, Allah hasn't placed any difficulty burden upon you
in this religion that you can't bear. Yes, there is effort. And yes, there is a need to push
ourselves in this month of Ramadan. And we don't do anything in this life, except that there's some
effort that is part and parcel of that action. But at the same time, this religion is easy. Any
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:57
			component that we find too difficult to bear that has adverse effects upon our health or our well
being the shady outcomes, and it makes it easy for us. And it's not just in the normal bank, but
outside of Ramadan as well. The harita van Chateau de la grande inside Buhari, just to show you the
beauty of this religion. She said that we were traveling with the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam and we were coming back from a battle from an expedition of war. And we stopped at a place to
rest. And we were at a time in our journey where all of our water had finished, didn't have any
water left that we were carrying. And the place that we stopped to rest also didn't contain water.
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:35
			But as we were there and as we were resting. I lost a necklace. She said what are your long run how
I lost a necklace that was dear to me. So I was trying to find it and I couldn't find it. So I told
the profits on a low while he was sent them and he began to search for it. And then the profits on a
lot while he was still him spent so long searching for it that the evening session and it was too
late to continue to travel. The whole army is now stationary because of a necklace belonging to an
Chateau de la Juana. The companion some of them became agitated and upset, they don't have water.
They don't have water to drink. They don't have water for the animals. There's no watering holes
		
00:12:35 --> 00:13:11
			nearby, and they don't have water for will do don't have water to make model. So they came to Abu
Bakr rhodiola one and they said it's because of your daughter and her necklace. The women in this
predicament Abubakar on your loved one sensing the frustration of the companions who came to the
Prophet son alone while he was sent him and his daughter, Alisha rhodiola, Juana, and the Prophet
son alone, while he was sent him was sleeping in the lap of Asia. And he began to see to his
daughter, it's because of you and your necklace that you held up a whole army, no water to be found
or water to be drunk. And the whole army is now waiting because of you and your necklace. And then
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:30
			she says he began to poke me to show me how severely upset he was. And she said that I did remove
because of fear that I will disturb the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was sleeping in my lap.
They spent the night there. And in the morning when they woke up for a job, and they needed to make
Waldo Alonzo will send to them the verses of the Mo.
		
00:13:31 --> 00:14:10
			And this is the beauty of the Sharia. Whenever we're in a situation and the difficult place that we
think that there's no way out, there surely are always comes and it facilitates ease. In the Sala
many of our elders and our brothers are sitting on chairs. That is from the concession that is
Sharia from the beauty of the Sharia, and the procedure of the law and the companion. He said that I
came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and he complained of hemorrhoids piles and I
couldn't pray because of this condition. So the Prophet said to me is on a low while he was selling
them suddenly enough for them to stop it either for inlanta started Fila gym free standing but if
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:46
			you can't please standing then please sitting down and if you can't please sitting down then play
lying down on your site. The profits on a low Arlene was Silliman yet a third example of this and
what is clicking on say hello Buhari. When the people were getting ready to perform Hajj. He passed
by an elderly man, a man was origin age, he was leaning on the shoulders of his two sons on either
side, and they were walking with Him and He was dragging his feet. The Prophet sets on a lot while
he was tell them what's wrong with this elderly man. Why is he walking like this? Why doesn't the
ride Why doesn't the rest? Why are his two children dragging him along and he's in Ramiz going for
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:59
			lunch. They said O Messenger of Allah he made an oath to Allah that He would only make Hajj walking
on his feet. He made an oath to Allah, that he would travel from Medina to Mecca, walking on his
feet and he's an old man he can walk
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:41
			Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in Allah and Tara Devi had enough Salah honey. Indeed Allah is
free and rich from this man having to punish himself. Allah doesn't need him to go through that
extent of ordeal and difficulty harm his life, his health makes so much difficulty for his own
children. Omar doesn't need that kind of worship, rather tell him to go and write. And this is the
beauty of the Sharia. And that is when a large soldier in the army speaks to us about fasting he
says, For men, kana Maria one Oh Allah suffer for it the two men a man or whosoever from amongst you
is sick while they're traveling, then make up those days after the month of Ramadan. And if you
		
00:15:41 --> 00:16:21
			can't make up those days because of your elderly age, or because of some other condition that you
have the new feed or poor person for every single day that you missed. That's from the beauty of the
Sharia. And from the beauty of the Sharia is when you take that concession, Allah gives you exactly
the same reward as if you were fasting. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in the shekel,
Abdullah Muslim, Carla Mahoney, Latina, Dr. Boone, tabula, who have Paloma Komiyama. When a person
has a condition, when they have a valid excuse that prevents them from doing any act of worship. A
large religion says to the angels that write down the good deeds, right for this person, the best of
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:23
			the actions that they use to perform
		
00:16:25 --> 00:17:03
			any action, not just any deed, the best of the good deeds that they used to perform. And that is
from the beauty of the Sharia. So when we in this month of Ramadan, our sisters who don't fast
because of their monthly cycles, our elders who don't fast people who have medical conditions that
prevent them from fasting, if you're traveling for a valid reason, and you have to travel, then
those are all concessions in the Sharia. And that is from the beauty of Islam. And this is what we
learn in Ramadan, that this religion is a religion, that is amazing. So how do we, what is the
Sharia? What is it given to us as individuals in order to maximize this opportunity of Ramadan, on
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:42
			the one hand, we're told to strive and to excel and to do as much as we can. And then on the other
hand, we're told that this religion is easy, that it facilitates mercy that it makes makes things
comfortable for people. And so the way that we balance between the two is also from the beauty of
this religion. And that is that Allah subhana wa Taala has gifted to each and every single one of us
to command our own schedule, to determine what it is that we can and cannot do. A large surgeon has
told us all of the opportunities that are available to us, all of those doors of good deeds and
those gates of reward that are before us. But then a large surgeon only obligated fasting upon us,
		
00:17:43 --> 00:18:20
			and everything else he left for us to choose, so that it fits in with what is easiest for us.
Because there's some of us weren't able to fast. And some of us will complete the turabian prayer
maybe. And maybe there's other people because of their work schedule and how early they have to wake
up in the morning, that it's not easy for them to do the actions and the good deeds, that are the
people who don't have those same commitments are able to perform. The beauty of the Sharia, in every
single aspect is that it gives to you the ability to choose what is better for yourself on the
condition that you do so with sincerity, that you do so to the best of your ability. So when the
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:57
			spinners or when the people used to come to scheffel Islam, even the taenia Rahim Allah they used to
ask him, what is the best type of hedge that you can perform? Is it the hedging which you make
tomra? And then you come out over time and you make the hedge the tomato? What is Iran? Or is it a
fraud, which type of hedge is best, he would reply, the one that is best for you is best. If it is
easy for you to do the two things separately, that is better. If it's not, then it is better for you
to combine them. And if you can only make Hajj alone with that camera, then do so. And that's how it
is in the month of Ramadan. Allah Subhana Allah has given to us many opportunities of good deeds and
		
00:18:57 --> 00:19:36
			those good deeds. Yes, we know that we should read as much or an preferably finished the Quran once
if not twice, or three times, that we should pray as much as we can, and give as much charity as we
can. But that may not always be possible in the case of every person, you know your best and Alonzo
which knows your sincerity. And Allah subhanaw taala knows if you're performing those actions to the
best of your capability, but from the beauty of the shinier and from the ease of the Sharia. And
from the amazing nature of this religion that a large surgeon has given to us is that there are so
many small deeds that we can perform that if we were to concentrate upon them in this month of
		
00:19:36 --> 00:20:00
			Ramadan small actions that we take for granted small deeds that we often overlook and neglect. They
contain amazing amounts of reward. things that we take for granted that we do every single day that
outside of Ramadan have become habitual and routine to us. If we were to spend some time focusing on
them in this month of Ramadan. They are gates to amazingly what from amongst them is missing.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:38
			Although everyone makes what do we make will do multiple times a day. But the window that is being
referred to is what is called is Babel. perfecting your dough, making model properly and calmly
doing it to such an extent that you make sure that you wash each and every single limb properly as
it should be watched the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and he spoke about the gates of Genoa,
the gates of Paradise are eight gates, each one of those cases for a single act of worship, there is
a good for the people of fasting called Aurora Yang, and there is a good for the people of jihad and
for the people of charity and for the people of prayer. And then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
		
00:20:38 --> 00:21:19
			sallam was asked about those people on that day of judgment will be allowed to enter from any of the
eight gates that they choose, only gates will be open before them. And he will think that it takes
amazing amounts of deeds and amazing actions of worship, to be able to take that honor. But the
Prophet told us sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that whosoever makes widow, and they perfect they will
do they do it to the best of their ability, do it properly. And then afterwards they see a shadow
Allah, Allah Illallah Muhammad Rasul Allah, Allah will open for them all of the eight gates of
gender simple action that we take for granted in this month of Ramadan, if you're busy, if you don't
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:57
			have time or if you're at work, but you're going to make Waldo irrespective of where you are just
taking some extra time a couple of minutes more and doing that we'll do properly has amazingly what
Not only that, but then when it comes to our Salah, if normally we're busy and we only pray the
follow up records, only the obligatory part of the salah and we miss our Sooners, this is an amazing
opportunity for reward, the prophet Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam karate and federal hero Mina
dunya mafia, those two records of Salatin fudger are better than this world and everything within
it. And whosoever please 12 optional records a day Allah will build for them a palace in paradise.
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:36
			Not only that, believe in in our Salah when we're praying, another issue that's become habitual to
us. We pray and we rushed and we pray and we rush. And so many times our mind mind is so busy and
preoccupied that we rarely Connect only connect very little with our Salah, in this month of
Ramadan, an act of worship that again is easy to perform, that you're going to be performing anyway.
You take two or three minutes extra, and you slow down the pace and you think about what it is that
you're reading. It contains amazing reward. The Hadith in Sahih al Bukhari, the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam, when he saw companion into the question, and he played himself was praying. And
		
00:22:36 --> 00:23:09
			then as he stood up from record, he said something allowed him and hamidah robina Well, I can hand
over our Lord all praises do to you. He said it in such a way that the Prophet sets an alarm while
he was sending them to Middleton with a Latina Malika, here to the to the Runa. Home to buena one, I
saw over 30 angels, each one of them racing to be the first one to write down that good deed, just
because of the way that he said it. One single statement of the Salah over 30 angels raced towards
it. And that had it isn't so
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:46
			it is an amazing opportunity for reward, reciting the Quran. When you're traveling to work or you're
coming back from work when you have a few moments to spend. It's not a condition of the plan that
you have to have it open all the time and to read from cover to cover. Yes, that's something that we
should do. And we should into perform in this month of Ramadan. But those times where that
opportunity isn't available to read what you know from memory is also equally rewarding. So to live
last, that sort of the role of a snow that we think is not enough to read, then the Prophet Allah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that it is equal to a third of the Quran. That's all you can know and
		
00:23:46 --> 00:24:25
			only can read. Once you're busy Once you're at work once you have a few moments to spare, it is an
amazing amount of good deeds, making the kind of alarms that were generally remembering Allah
subhana wa tada those simple statements that flow so easily from the tongue. It most of us don't
have the mind or the the ability to remember that it's something that we need to do. It is an
amazing source of reward. The Prophet told us sallallahu alayhi wa sallam single hamdulillah just
pleasing Allah signal hamdulillah fills the skills of good deeds, to see Subhana Allah He will be
hemmed in seeing all Glory be to Allah all praises to him Subhana Allah He will be humbly a lot of
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:59
			plans for you a tree in paradise to say Subhana Allah He will be humbled the use of Hannah Laila
when the Prophet told us on a loved one, it was seldom in the last hydrated emammal Buhari collected
in his famous book of Hadith. He said that there are two statements of Han Allah who will be harmed
Subhana Allah, Allah or lien that are beloved to Allah, they are light upon the tongue, but
extremely heavy upon the skills to say Subhan Allah He will be handy 100 times the Prophet said on

of the ocean. takes you two minutes, three minutes.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:41
			Wherever you want to see Subhanallah he will be handed 100 times and it gives you forgiveness for
all of your sins, to say Subhana Allah 100 times the Prophet told us sallallahu alayhi wa sallam

general, he said that it is from the treasures of Paradise, to say that how noble La quwata illa
Billah to show you how amazing this opportunity of reward is, our mother, the wife of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Julia rhodiola when she said that one day the Prophet sallallahu alayhi
		
00:25:41 --> 00:26:20
			wa sallam left for Salatin fudger and I was sitting in my place of prayer, remembering Allah, making
Vicar of Allah. And then he returned many hours later, once the sun had risen, and I was still in
the same exact spot, remembering a large soldier should make him think of Allah. The Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said to her, have you spent all of that time in that same position,
remembering Allah azza wa jal? She said yes. So messenger of Allah, I've been making decode the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam By Allah, I have said four statements only for things during
that whole time, that are heavier in the skills than all of that record that you made. All of that
		
00:26:20 --> 00:27:04
			out of making record for things I said, they are heavier in the skills that everything that you just
did. So panela he will be handy, either the holiday worried or NFC was in a terace me that the
climax or praises due to Allah by the number of his creation, and by the, by the weight of his
throne, and by how much he's pleased by himself. subhana wa Taala. And by the number of his words,
seeing this simple liquor which doesn't even take you 1015 seconds, gives you more reward than 234
hours of sitting there and making them the opportunity for reward is amazing. Doing things that we
can do in the month of Ramadan. Visiting people who are sick, visiting people who want to take your
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:40

Muslim, a larger region will keep them within the hillfort regenda. They said what is the headphone
general messenger of Allah, He said it is in the trees of paradise. It's as if they plucking the
fruits of gentlemen, simple actions that we can perform, that a large soldier has shown us that in
the beauty of Islam, it's not just about the great actions that we should also be attempting to
perform as much as we can. But don't let it be an opportunity or an excuse when you're busy when
you're working. When for many hours during the day, you're preoccupied with other things that you
		
00:27:40 --> 00:28:14
			have to do. That is also part of your role as a husband or a mother or father, as your role as a
Muslim that you're preoccupied with. Don't let it be an excuse to not also worship Allah subhana wa
tada with those simple small deeds that you can perform. And the reward is amazing outside of
Ramadan. And as we know, in the month of Ramadan, those rewards are multiplied male, large soda
makers from amongst those people who use our time wisely and allow us to benefit and maximize our
time. And that allows that we can make this month the month in which we truly earn his forgiveness
and increase in our scale of good deeds and rewards and that we ask Alonzo to that he forgives our

at the Sleeman kathira Mbah the mazing nature of our religion, the beauty of our Sharia is something
which Allah subhanaw taala has built in to our religion. And one of the amazing lessons that we
learn from this month of Ramadan and it is perhaps the greatest lesson that we learn. It is the
learner it is the lesson of submission, to submit to Allah subhana wa Tada. That is the most basic
component of faith, the most basic component of our religion, and our worship and our duty to our
Lord in Crete. Allah subhana wa tada is the duty of submission. And what submission means is that
		
00:29:21 --> 00:30:00
			when we hear that a large soldier has commanded us with something was prohibited us from something
we submit willingly and we submit immediately when a large soldier speaks about the Prophet Ibrahim
Ali Salam in the Quran, he describes in surah baqarah and he says, If God Allah hora boo Islam,
Allah Islam to the mean, when Allah commanded him and he said to him submit, he said, immediately I
submit to the Lord of all creation, and that is why man Allah describes him in the Quran, he says in
the Ibrahim aterna Ibrahim, who was one man was like a nation. Why? Because the trials that he was
given the tests that a la police before
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:41
			Him, whole nations whole communities would fill those tests. But Ibrahim a single man would pass
those tests. And that's why he's like the nation. Every single test that Allah mentions in the Quran
that was placed before Ibrahim alayhi salam, he passed with flying colors, because he submitted when
a lot commends him to leave his wife and child in the desert. he submits. When Allah commands him to
go and to sacrifice his son with his own hand. he submits, when Alonzo and gentlemen is told by his
people, his own parents, his own family, that is going to be thrown into the fire, because they
don't like what is preaching, he submits to the will of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And that is Islam.
		
00:30:41 --> 00:31:19
			That is the lesson of Ramadan. So now that a large region has told us to fast 1718 hours, we wake up
so early in the morning despite having worked despite having children despite having families and
chores, and responsibilities, and then we stay awake till after midnight because we're in the
masjid, praying Torah. That is a sign of our submission. We don't have any qualms we don't have any
issues. We don't have any problems within our heart doing so it is a testament and a sign of our
faith. And that's not only something that we have to do in Ramadan, but in every single aspect of
the Sharia. That is the test of Eman how willing you are to submit to something that you hear from
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:52
			Allah, or from his prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Finally, my dear brothers and sisters in
Islam, as you know, this month of Ramadan is a month of charity in the month of giving it as a month
of generosity and our profits on a low quality when seldom would be at his most generous in this
month. And there are many causes vying for your attention. And all of them are worthy from our
brothers and sisters in Palestine to our brothers and sisters in Syria and in Burma, and across the
world. And even those brothers and sisters who are needy within our own community, but also from
amongst those causes that is extremely important is your own question. And the need for you to
		
00:31:52 --> 00:32:27
			donate willingly and openly towards this Masjid so that he can continue to function provide the
services that it does was colossal panel data that he makes this month a month of blessing for us.
And there are large social shows His mercy upon us and our families. And our large origin makes it a
month in which we achieve emancipation from the fire and salvation in this life and the next under a
large social grants us our parents, our families, our children, all of our brothers and sisters, the
highest ranks of gender, wrestlers, oh God makes easy for our brothers and sisters across the world,
their affairs that a large soldier brings peace and stability to them that Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:38
			helps those who are under stress and that allows origin kills those who form amongst them are ill
and he has mercy upon those who have passed away. So cannot be carboneras that Yamanashi foon
