00:00:18 --> 00:00:19
			In the name of Allah and praise be
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:21
			to Allah and peace and blessings be upon
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			the Messenger of Allah and his family and
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:24
			companions.
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:28
			O Allah, teach us what benefits us and
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:29
			benefit us with what You have taught us
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:30
			and increase us in knowledge.
		
00:00:31 --> 00:00:33
			O Lord of the worlds, O Allah, help
		
00:00:33 --> 00:00:36
			us to remember You and thank You for
		
00:00:36 --> 00:00:37
			Your good worship.
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:44
			Last we met, we were talking about zina,
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			if you remember.
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:52
			And the end of this particular section, Ibn
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:58
			Qayyim talks about whether the repentance of someone,
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			in particular he who commits the actions of
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:05
			the people of Lut, peace be upon him,
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:10
			would he have and can he repent or
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:10
			not.
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:14
			So this section I just want to skip
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17
			over and return to later inshallah.
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:20
			So when he starts talking about the sin
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:23
			of the people of Lut, I'll bring it
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:23
			back.
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:27
			But I'll skip over it for now and
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:28
			move on to the next section.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:32
			Where Ibn Qayyim is talking about the good
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:36
			end and the bad end.
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			And how he arrives at it is connected
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			to the issue of tawbah, meaning he is
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			going to say that if a person truly
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			repents, Allah Azza wa Jal will accept his
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:52
			repentance and reform him and lead him into
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:53
			Jannah.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			But a lot of people, they fail to
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:56
			repent.
		
00:01:57 --> 00:02:00
			They fail to abandon their sins.
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:04
			And so these sins, they catch up with
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:07
			them at the most vulnerable and weakest of
		
00:02:07 --> 00:02:08
			moments.
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:11
			So this is how he arrives at that
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:14
			discussion of the good and the bad end.
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:24
			So he said, if you look at the
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:27
			condition and situation of a lot of people
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:28
			who pass away, a lot of people who
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:31
			die, you'll find that there is a blockage
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:34
			between them and the good end.
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			That there is something that prevents them from
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:38
			attaining that good end.
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:45
			He says, as a punishment for their bad
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:45
			deeds.
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:47
			So they are dying, you want to have
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:49
			a good end, meaning die in a righteous
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:50
			way.
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			Say something righteous before you die.
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:55
			Or do something righteous before you die.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:58
			He says, there is something that stops them
		
00:02:58 --> 00:02:59
			from reaching that stage.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:00
			What is it?
		
00:03:00 --> 00:03:01
			He is saying past sins.
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:10
			Then he said, So he is quoting someone,
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:11
			another scholar.
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:13
			And he is an Andalusian scholar.
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:23
			And his book is Al-Aqiba.
		
00:03:25 --> 00:03:28
			So he said, this is Al-Ishbili he
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:29
			is saying.
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:38
			He says, know that a bad end, a
		
00:03:38 --> 00:03:41
			bad death, may Allah protect us from it,
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:45
			has causes and gateways and doors that lead
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:46
			to it.
		
00:03:48 --> 00:03:49
			So he is going to tell you what
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:50
			leads to it.
		
00:03:53 --> 00:03:59
			He says, its greatest causes are obsession with
		
00:03:59 --> 00:03:59
			the dunya.
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:03
			Over-preoccupation with the dunya.
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:05
			And turning away from the akhira.
		
00:04:08 --> 00:04:11
			And to be bold and audacious when it
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:13
			comes to the sins of Allah and His
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:14
			prohibitions.
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			Meaning he commits them without thought.
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:19
			He commits them without compunction, without regret, without
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:20
			sorrow, without repentance.
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:32
			And maybe a person would be overwhelmed by
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:33
			a particular sin.
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:36
			And a particular turning away from Allah.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:42
			And a portion of being bold against Allah.
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:47
			So these things will overtake his heart.
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:49
			Will control his heart.
		
00:04:50 --> 00:04:53
			And will kidnap his mind.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:54
			And extinguish his light.
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:56
			And engulf him.
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			Or engulf his heart, engulf his mind, engulf
		
00:04:59 --> 00:05:00
			his senses.
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:03
			So no reminder, no admonition would help.
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09
			So when death arrives at that stage, when
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:10
			he is so distant.
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:16
			So he would hear the call from a
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:17
			distant location.
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:20
			Meaning he would hear the call of death.
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:22
			Or the call of repentance.
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			Or the call of remembering Allah Azza wa
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:24
			Jal.
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:26
			From a very distant location.
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:28
			Meaning the call is faint and weak.
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			Why is it faint and weak?
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:33
			Because he is already far.
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:36
			He is totally somewhere else.
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:39
			So enmeshed in the dunya.
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:40
			Only cares about it.
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:41
			Away from the akhira.
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:45
			Drowning in sin.
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:48
			So he is not ready to hear that
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:48
			call.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:50
			He is not interested in it.
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			So when the moment of death arrives.
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:55
			And he hears repent.
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			Say la ilaha illallah.
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			Ask Allah for forgiveness.
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:01
			These things are so weak.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:03
			That they don't register.
		
00:06:04 --> 00:06:06
			Just like if you were to go.
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:08
			And tell one of us.
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:10
			Who is at this moment is sinful.
		
00:06:10 --> 00:06:11
			Repent.
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:13
			Does it register?
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:16
			Pray.
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:17
			Does it register?
		
00:06:17 --> 00:06:18
			Does he respond?
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:21
			So the call is so distant from where
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:21
			he is.
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:24
			That it doesn't really change anything in him.
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:25
			So he says in the same way.
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:28
			When that call is so weak.
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:30
			It does not affect him at that moment
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:30
			of death.
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:32
			So he continues to do.
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:33
			What he used to do.
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:40
			He says so he does not understand.
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:42
			What the call is.
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:43
			He does not understand.
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:45
			What he wants from him.
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:47
			Even if he keeps repeating and repeating.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			Do this and do this.
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:50
			Or don't do that.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:52
			He is in a very different location.
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:54
			Than the one calling him to Allah.
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:57
			Then he will now tell you.
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:58
			Few stories.
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:01
			And stories on the one hand are interesting.
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:04
			Because these are.
		
00:07:04 --> 00:07:06
			The fulfillment of whatever.
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:07
			Allah and his prophet.
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:09
			Whatever the scholars are talking about.
		
00:07:09 --> 00:07:11
			Here is this in theory.
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:12
			But here is what happens.
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			So they are powerful in that sense.
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:16
			And they stay with you because of it.
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:19
			Because here is again a clear example.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:20
			Demonstration.
		
00:07:20 --> 00:07:21
			Fulfillment of it.
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:25
			It is said that.
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			One of the men of Al Nasir.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:29
			Al Nasir was a leader.
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:30
			Like a king or a prince.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:31
			So he had dominion.
		
00:07:31 --> 00:07:32
			He had power.
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			So one of his men.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:36
			When he says one of his men.
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:38
			It means either one of the people in
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:39
			his court.
		
00:07:39 --> 00:07:40
			Or one of his soldiers.
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:41
			Maybe soldiers.
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:45
			He is about to die.
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:47
			So his son would tell him.
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:49
			Say La ilaha illallah.
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:51
			So what he would say is.
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:53
			Al Nasir Mawlai.
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:55
			Al Nasir is my master.
		
00:07:56 --> 00:07:57
			Al Nasir is my king.
		
00:07:57 --> 00:07:58
			Al Nasir is my prince.
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:00
			So he is saying Al Nasir Mawlai.
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:02
			So he tells him.
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:04
			Say La ilaha illallah.
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:06
			He continues to say this.
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:09
			Then he lost consciousness.
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:10
			When he woke up.
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:11
			He again would say.
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:13
			Al Nasir is my master.
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:15
			And he continued to say this.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:17
			Whenever they tell him.
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:18
			Say La ilaha illallah.
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:20
			He would say Al Nasir Mawlai.
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:23
			Then he said to his son.
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:25
			He says so and so.
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:26
			He is talking to him.
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:30
			He says.
		
00:08:30 --> 00:08:32
			Al Nasir will only recognize you.
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:33
			Through your sword.
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:35
			What does that mean?
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:36
			Through your excellence.
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:39
			Through killing people or listening to him.
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:41
			Then he will know you.
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:42
			Then you will be extinguished.
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:44
			Then he will honor you.
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:47
			This is how you gain favor with him.
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:49
			And then there is death.
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:51
			Then he died.
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:53
			So here.
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:54
			That's an example.
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:56
			Of a person who served another.
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:58
			That at the moment of death.
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:00
			When he was told.
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:01
			Say La ilaha illallah.
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:04
			His loyalty to that person.
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:05
			Or obsession.
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:07
			To be loyal.
		
00:09:08 --> 00:09:09
			To gain his favor.
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:11
			Overcame him.
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:13
			And he couldn't say La ilaha illallah.
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:15
			Qala Abdul Haq.
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:16
			It's Abdul Haq again.
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:17
			The same scholar.
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:19
			And another was told.
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:21
			Again before his death.
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:22
			Say La ilaha illallah.
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:24
			He would say instead.
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:26
			This particular house.
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:27
			Fix this and that in it.
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:29
			This particular garden.
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:30
			Fix this and that in it.
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:32
			And that's what he said.
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:33
			And this is how he died.
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:36
			Now notice with these things.
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:39
			Are these things.
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:40
			In themselves.
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:42
			Visibly sinful.
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:45
			Like if a person fixes homes.
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:46
			And fixes lands.
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:47
			Is that a sin?
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:49
			It's not a sin.
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:50
			It's not a visible sin.
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:52
			But when does it become an obstacle?
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:55
			When it is what?
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:56
			The obsession.
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			When it is the thing that you care
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:01
			about more than anything else.
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:04
			Then it becomes an obstacle between you and
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:04
			Allah.
		
00:10:05 --> 00:10:07
			So the things that you will hear.
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:08
			Not all of them are sinful.
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:11
			Some of them are actual sins.
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			Some of them do become sins because you
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:16
			exaggerate your attachment to them.
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:19
			Until they dominate and they become greater than
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:19
			Allah.
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:22
			And the dunya becomes greater than the hereafter.
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:24
			Then yeah, that is a problem.
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:27
			So you have to watch out for both
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:28
			of these things.
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:30
			The things that are visibly, clearly.
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:31
			Everyone would know that that is a sin.
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:35
			And the things that attach to you and
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:38
			you attach to them in a sinful way.
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:40
			Until they become dominant.
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:42
			More important than Allah Azawajal.
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:44
			Another man.
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:46
			When he was about to die.
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:49
			He was told, Say la ilaha illallah.
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:52
			He would say in Persian.
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56
			Meaning 10 with 11.
		
00:10:57 --> 00:10:59
			So either something that has to do with
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:00
			business or math.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:01
			Something like that.
		
00:11:01 --> 00:11:03
			Or a play of some sort.
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:05
			But that is his obsession.
		
00:11:06 --> 00:11:06
			Alright.
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:09
			So if that's the thing that he cares
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:10
			about the most.
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:14
			When it's time to die.
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:16
			The thing that you care about the most
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:17
			is the thing that you are going to
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:18
			remember.
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:19
			Alright.
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:23
			So you will see for instance if a
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:26
			person lived their life worried about his kids.
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:29
			Before his death what does he say or
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:30
			what does she say?
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:32
			Take care of my kids.
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:34
			Make sure that so and so is taken
		
00:11:34 --> 00:11:35
			care of.
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:36
			Not that this is bad.
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:38
			I'm just giving that as an example of
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:42
			whatever you care about floats to the top.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:43
			It has to.
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:47
			So if you care about then your house
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:50
			and renovations in it or a business and
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:53
			how to succeed or how to enrich yourself
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:56
			or you play video games and that's your
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:57
			obsession day and night.
		
00:11:58 --> 00:11:59
			When it is the moment for you to
		
00:11:59 --> 00:12:01
			remember Allah azawajal.
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:03
			Well you weren't remembering Allah before were you?
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:05
			The only thing that you cared about are
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:06
			these things.
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:08
			So when someone tries to say la ilaha
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:08
			illallah.
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:10
			It is so foreign.
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:13
			That's nothing that really comes natural to you.
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:15
			But rather what would come natural to you?
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:16
			The thing that would you do the most.
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:18
			Care about the most.
		
00:12:18 --> 00:12:20
			Talk about the most then it comes.
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:25
			وخيل لآخر قل لا إله إلا الله فجعل
		
00:12:25 --> 00:12:29
			يقول أين الطريق إلى حمام منجاب Is another
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:32
			was asked say la ilaha illallah.
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:35
			So he continued to say where is the
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:37
			path to the hammam of Minjab.
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:42
			Minjab is a city and it's probably in
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:47
			Persia, in Iran والله أعلم حمام, what is
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:47
			hammam?
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:53
			Not exactly washroom bathhouse, right?
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:56
			So you know the Turkish bathhouse or the
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:56
			Moroccan bathhouse.
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:58
			That's what hammam is.
		
00:12:58 --> 00:12:59
			That's where actually it comes from.
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:00
			Right?
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:03
			So the hammam comes because there is hot
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:04
			water in it.
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:08
			So if a person is sick with fever,
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:09
			what do we call it?
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:12
			حُمَّ Because it's hot, right?
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:15
			Or the water that is very hot, we
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:16
			call it حَمِيم as it's called in the
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:17
			Quran.
		
00:13:17 --> 00:13:19
			So why is it called hammam?
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:21
			It has nothing to do with the toilet
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:22
			or washroom.
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:23
			Why is it called hammam?
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:24
			Because there is what in it?
		
00:13:25 --> 00:13:25
			Hot water.
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:28
			It was hot water.
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:32
			So he says, where is the path to
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:34
			the bathhouse of Minjab?
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:39
			So this is a man who whenever they
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:41
			would tell him this, that's his answer.
		
00:13:41 --> 00:13:43
			There is a story that Ibn Al-Qayyim
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:44
			tells.
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:47
			It's a famous story that you find it
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:48
			in different books.
		
00:13:49 --> 00:13:53
			Now did it happen exactly as it is
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:54
			narrated here or not?
		
00:13:54 --> 00:13:56
			It doesn't really matter.
		
00:13:56 --> 00:13:57
			I'll share with you the story.
		
00:13:57 --> 00:13:58
			It doesn't really matter.
		
00:13:58 --> 00:14:01
			What matters really ultimately is that a person
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:04
			has failed to say لا إله إلا الله
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:05
			because of an obsession.
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:10
			So the story goes and again it's a
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:13
			bit disturbing to kind of can share that.
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:16
			A person was once standing and a woman
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:19
			passes by and she's looking for the bathhouse.
		
00:14:20 --> 00:14:22
			And she got tired looking for it.
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:27
			So she asks him, where is hammam of
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:27
			Minjab?
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:29
			Where is the bathhouse of this city?
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:33
			So she is beautiful, he is tempted.
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:35
			So he says from here.
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:37
			And he volunteers to guide her.
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:39
			But instead of guiding her to that place,
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:41
			he guides her to his house.
		
00:14:42 --> 00:14:43
			And then he leads her inside, locks the
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:46
			door and he says, you know, man I
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:47
			have my way with you.
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:50
			She was smart enough, wise enough to say,
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:53
			well she pretended as if she's in agreement,
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:54
			she's in.
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:57
			But instead, you know, by doing it like
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:58
			this, we need some food, we need some
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			water, we need this and that.
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:00
			Why didn't you go ahead and buy it?
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:03
			He, the stupid man that he is, but
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:07
			alhamdulillah that he did, left to get all
		
00:15:07 --> 00:15:07
			of that.
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:09
			She slipped out.
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:12
			He came back hopeful with all this food
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:14
			and all the water and all the drinks
		
00:15:14 --> 00:15:15
			and whatever that yes, we're going to have
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:16
			a great time.
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:18
			He didn't find her over there.
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:20
			So he kept looking for her.
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:21
			Right?
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:22
			Where did she go?
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:22
			Where did she go?
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:23
			Where did she go?
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:26
			And he had this verse of poetry.
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:30
			يَا رُبَّ قَائِلَةٍ يَوْمًا وَقَدْ تَعِبَتْ كَيْفَ الطَّرِيقُ
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:31
			إِلَى حَمَّامِ مِنْ جَابِي؟
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:34
			She was once tired and she had asked,
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:37
			how do I reach the bathhouse of Minjab?
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:39
			And he kept looking for her and he
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:39
			was enchanted.
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:42
			His mind was stolen.
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:46
			Still, he's he has his mind, but he
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:49
			was enchanted with her to the extent that
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:51
			before his death that's the only thing he
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:52
			could say.
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:56
			So as a repayment for that sin, which
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:59
			he did not repent from, he failed to
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:02
			say, لا إله إلا الله before his death.
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:08
			And he brings here Sufyan al-Thawri رحمه
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:12
			الله as an example of a scholar who
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:15
			understood the importance of that good end or
		
00:16:15 --> 00:16:15
			bad end.
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:19
			He said, Sufyan al-Thawri, one of those
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:22
			nights, cried and continued to cry till the
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:22
			morning.
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:26
			Sufyan al-Thawri before all of his worship,
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:29
			all of his knowledge, he cried and continued
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:31
			to cry till the morning.
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:34
			فلما أصبح in the morning he was asked,
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:36
			you're crying this much out of fear of
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:37
			sin?
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:40
			I mean, you're so terrified of sin that
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:41
			you're crying so much?
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:45
			So he picked up a straw from the
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:48
			ground and he said, my sins or sins
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:51
			in general are less in my eyes than
		
00:16:51 --> 00:16:51
			this straw.
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:54
			What I fear is the bad ending.
		
00:16:56 --> 00:16:58
			Are less in my eyes than this small
		
00:16:58 --> 00:16:58
			straw.
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:00
			But what I fear is what?
		
00:17:00 --> 00:17:01
			A bad ending.
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:04
			Now Ibn al-Qayyim says, وَهَذَا مِنْ أَعْظَمِ
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:07
			الْفِقْحِ And this is of the greatest fiqh,
		
00:17:08 --> 00:17:11
			a deep understanding, a wise understanding of the
		
00:17:11 --> 00:17:13
			sharia, that a person would be afraid that
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:16
			his sins will let him down when he's
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:16
			about to die.
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:19
			So it would stop him from reaching that
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:19
			good end.
		
00:17:21 --> 00:17:23
			And if you think about it, you'll understand
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:26
			why Ibn Thawri was crying.
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:31
			If we're just talking about sins, as terrifying
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:33
			as sins are, you could say to yourself
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:33
			what?
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:35
			You could say, Allah could forgive them.
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:38
			You say, I could do good things and
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40
			that will erase them, maybe.
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:43
			So you could have that hope.
		
00:17:43 --> 00:17:45
			But what was he afraid of?
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:47
			He says, I'm afraid of that these sins
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:48
			will persist.
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:51
			And now at the moment of death, when
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:56
			I am my weakest, I will be let
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:56
			down.
		
00:17:56 --> 00:17:59
			I will not be able to survive the
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:00
			test of death.
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:04
			So I will not have a good end.
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:09
			See, in our lives we're always tested.
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:14
			So when you're confronted with a sin, if
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:17
			you have enough iman, you'll triumph over that
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:18
			sin.
		
00:18:19 --> 00:18:21
			So shaitan is presenting you with a proposal,
		
00:18:21 --> 00:18:22
			do this bad thing.
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:26
			If you have enough iman, you'll triumph.
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:29
			If you don't have enough iman, what will
		
00:18:29 --> 00:18:29
			happen?
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:31
			You'll fail.
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:32
			You'll commit that sin.
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:35
			Death is also a test.
		
00:18:35 --> 00:18:37
			And it is the strongest and the hardest
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:38
			of tests.
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:41
			So when you're confronted with that test of
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:44
			death, if you don't have enough iman, you'll
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:46
			not be able to triumph, just like with
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:47
			that sin.
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:50
			If you have enough iman, you'll triumph by
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:51
			the will of Allah Azzawajal.
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:53
			So if you're weak, you can't triumph.
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:54
			If you're strong, you will triumph.
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:59
			So if you fail with sin, what makes
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:00
			you think that you are safe when it
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:01
			comes to death?
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:05
			And death is harder or easier than just
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:06
			a small sin here and there.
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:08
			Death is the end of your life.
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:10
			The exit of your soul.
		
00:19:11 --> 00:19:12
			The complete unknown.
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:15
			Agony in body.
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:16
			Agony in spirit.
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:22
			So all of this, will your sins let
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:23
			you still have iman?
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:26
			Or will you reject it?
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:27
			Will you abandon it?
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:30
			Will your sin overtake you?
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:33
			Or will your sin be weak enough and
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:35
			you're strong enough to be able to say
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:37
			la ilaha illallah for you to be able
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:39
			to do a good thing just before your
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:39
			death?
		
00:19:40 --> 00:19:41
			So this is what they're afraid of.
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:46
			Your sin catching up with you, overcoming you,
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:48
			when you are the weakest and when you
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:50
			need your iman the most.
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:54
			وَقَدْ ذَكَرَ الْإِمَامُ أَحْمَدُ He says, Imam Ahmed,
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:56
			I forgot to say this.
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			When we go to the bath house, حَمَّم
		
00:19:59 --> 00:20:02
			مِنْ جَبْ Women in general are not supposed
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:03
			to visit the bath house.
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:09
			There's a hadith in the Prophet ﷺ where
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:11
			he said that a man who believes in
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			Allah in the last day should not let
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:14
			his wife visit a bath house.
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:19
			حَمَّم And another where when Aisha رضي الله
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:22
			عنها met some women who came from Homs
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:23
			in Ash-Sham.
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:26
			So she said, لَعَلَّ كُنَّ لَا تِيَتْ خُلْنَا
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:29
			الْحَمَّمَاتِ Are you among those who enter the
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:30
			bath houses?
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:34
			Indeed I hear the Prophet ﷺ that any
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:37
			woman who takes off her clothes and other
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:40
			than her husband's home has broken the seal
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:42
			that is between her and Allah عز و
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:42
			جل.
		
00:20:42 --> 00:20:45
			Or the protection that is between her and
		
00:20:45 --> 00:20:45
			Allah عز و جل.
		
00:20:46 --> 00:20:47
			So of course a woman who goes to
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:48
			a bath house has to strip.
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:51
			And that is not safe.
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:54
			And even a male who is going to
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:55
			go to a bath house you have to
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:56
			go with an izar.
		
00:20:57 --> 00:20:58
			A sarum.
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:00
			Or a lower garment.
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:03
			So you don't expose your nakedness.
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:05
			It's not an open invitation.
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:06
			It's just a bath house.
		
00:21:07 --> 00:21:08
			Do whatever you want there.
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:09
			So no, if you're going to go there
		
00:21:09 --> 00:21:11
			or you're going to go to a place,
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:13
			you can't have * in that place.
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:15
			Including yourself.
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:16
			So that's the condition for the hammam.
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:19
			So I decided just to mention it before
		
00:21:19 --> 00:21:20
			we move on.
		
00:21:21 --> 00:21:23
			قَدْ ذَكَرَ الْإِمَامُ أَحْمَدُ He says Imam Ahmad
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:26
			mentioned from Abu Darda that when he was
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:29
			about to die, جَعَلَ يُغْمَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَفِيقِ
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:31
			He would lose consciousness and then wake up
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:35
			and say, وَنُقَلِّبُ أَفْئِدَتَهُمْ وَأَبْصَارَهُمْ كَمَا لُمْ يُؤْمِنُ
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:38
			بِهِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةً He says, and we will
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:41
			turn their hearts and their eyes away as
		
00:21:41 --> 00:21:43
			they did not believe in it the first
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:43
			day.
		
00:21:44 --> 00:21:46
			And we will leave them في طغيانهم drowning
		
00:21:46 --> 00:21:47
			in their rebellion.
		
00:21:48 --> 00:21:51
			So here is that thing that Abu Darda
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:53
			was saying and was afraid of.
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:56
			That we will turn their eyes away and
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:59
			hearts away from the truth because they did
		
00:21:59 --> 00:22:01
			not believe in it to begin with.
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:03
			So when they see and this is about
		
00:22:03 --> 00:22:07
			the disbelievers that is, when the disbeliever receives
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:13
			the message first and they understand it and
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:16
			they stubbornly reject it and that there is
		
00:22:16 --> 00:22:19
			a seal on their hearts, then the next
		
00:22:19 --> 00:22:21
			time it comes their heart will not be
		
00:22:21 --> 00:22:25
			able to accept because Allah will turn them
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:25
			away.
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:27
			Why?
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:30
			As a punishment for that first offense of
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:32
			theirs that they rejected the truth now they
		
00:22:32 --> 00:22:34
			can't even get to it even if they
		
00:22:34 --> 00:22:34
			wanted.
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:37
			They don't but even if they wanted.
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:39
			So there is that connection here that he
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:41
			is talking about رحمه الله which is what?
		
00:22:41 --> 00:22:44
			That you could be turned away from a
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:47
			good end simply because of your past sins.
		
00:22:50 --> 00:22:53
			It's because of this the Salaf were afraid
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:56
			of sins that will be a barrier a
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:59
			hijab, a curtain between them and a good
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:04
			end قال and he said this is still
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:08
			Abdul Haq قال وعلم and know that سوء
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:11
			الخاتمة the bad end, may Allah protect us
		
00:23:11 --> 00:23:14
			all from it will not be for someone
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:18
			who is upright externally and internally this was
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:20
			not heard and was not known to be
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:21
			the case.
		
00:23:21 --> 00:23:24
			والحمد لله So this is an assurance from
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:27
			Abdul Haq رحمه الله which is what?
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:29
			Who will suffer that bad end?
		
00:23:29 --> 00:23:31
			So he is saying as far as we
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:34
			know, as far as we have seen, if
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:37
			a person is upright, is righteous externally and
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:41
			internally he is safe from it it doesn't
		
00:23:41 --> 00:23:44
			affect him and in fact this is what
		
00:23:44 --> 00:23:46
			you would expect and hope from Allah عز
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:47
			و جل right?
		
00:23:48 --> 00:23:49
			What do you expect from Allah?
		
00:23:49 --> 00:23:52
			Whom Allah is just and merciful that if
		
00:23:52 --> 00:23:54
			a person is good on the inside and
		
00:23:54 --> 00:23:56
			good on the outside, do you expect that
		
00:23:56 --> 00:23:59
			all before their death they'll leave their faith?
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:02
			Or Allah عز و جل will abandon them?
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:05
			Or their sins will have the upper hand?
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:08
			He says no, that's not possible So we
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:10
			believe that's the case because that's what we
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:11
			know about Allah عز و جل but he
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:16
			also says practically we've never seen this to
		
00:24:16 --> 00:24:19
			be the case وَإِنَّمَا تَكُونُ لِمَنْ لَهُ فَسَادٌ
		
00:24:19 --> 00:24:22
			فِي الْأَصْلِ But it happens to those who
		
00:24:22 --> 00:24:25
			have corruption to begin with, that there is
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:28
			already a corruption, an insistence upon the major
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:33
			sins and boldness in committing great crimes فَرُبَّمَا
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:37
			غَلَبَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ This dominates him حَتَّى يَنْزِلَ
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:39
			بِهِ الْمَوْتُ قَبْلَ التَّوْبَةُ So this sin dominates
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:42
			him and then death arrives before he repents
		
00:24:43 --> 00:24:45
			so it takes him before he had fixed
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:48
			what's on the inside before he had repented
		
00:24:48 --> 00:24:53
			and the Shaytan overtakes him and kidnaps him
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:58
			at that moment of frightfulness at that frightful
		
00:24:58 --> 00:25:01
			moment he takes him وَالْعِيَاذُ بِاللَّهِ So you
		
00:25:01 --> 00:25:05
			understand here to whom does this happen he
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:09
			says there is something there's a corruption if
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:13
			you're good inside and outside then بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ
		
00:25:13 --> 00:25:16
			عَزُوَجَلِ you are safe but if you're not
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:21
			good on the inside or you pretend to
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:25
			be good but you're insisting on committing major
		
00:25:25 --> 00:25:27
			sins and you hide it and you're not
		
00:25:27 --> 00:25:30
			struggling with it you're not trying to overcome
		
00:25:30 --> 00:25:34
			it you're not pleading with Allah عَزُوَجَلِ and
		
00:25:34 --> 00:25:36
			you're trying to your best that's not what
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:38
			you're doing, you're content with that you're happy
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:41
			with it, you're hiding it and it's repetitive
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:45
			and it's normal so you look one way
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:48
			but you behave privately a different way you
		
00:25:48 --> 00:25:51
			look to people one way but privately you're
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:53
			very different so he says if there is
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:55
			that type of corruption and insistence upon major
		
00:25:55 --> 00:25:58
			sins and repetition of that sin until it's
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:01
			accepted and you have not rushed to repent
		
00:26:01 --> 00:26:03
			then it is always a possibility that when
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:05
			you're about to die that sin will come
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:07
			up the shaytan will come in and the
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:09
			shaytan will be able to kidnap you at
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:11
			that moment and seal or put a seal
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:14
			between you and saying لا إله إلا الله
		
00:26:14 --> 00:26:17
			between do and doing righteousness and you'll end
		
00:26:17 --> 00:26:21
			up with a bad end that's what happens
		
00:26:21 --> 00:26:24
			and this is how it happens قَالَ وَيُرْوَى
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:29
			again a couple of stories قَالَ وَيُرْوَى أَنَّهُ
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:33
			كَانَ بِمِصْرَ رَجُلًا وَيَلْزَمُ مَسْجِدًا لِلْأَذَانِ وَالصَّلَةِ it
		
00:26:33 --> 00:26:35
			is said that there was in Egypt a
		
00:26:35 --> 00:26:39
			man who was resident in the masjid for
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:43
			adhan and salah وَعَلَيْهِ بَهَاءُ الطَّاعَةِ وَأَنْوَارُ الْعِبَادَةِ
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:45
			and you could clean from him you could
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:48
			see from him the beauty and the light
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:52
			of obedience and ibadah right so this is
		
00:26:52 --> 00:26:54
			good for next time if anybody tells you
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:58
			mashallah you look glowing with iman if anybody
		
00:26:58 --> 00:27:00
			tells you that and you really take that
		
00:27:00 --> 00:27:02
			to heart and you say mashallah I am
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:04
			that person so he is saying about this
		
00:27:04 --> 00:27:07
			person he is a resident in the masjid
		
00:27:07 --> 00:27:09
			for adhan and for salah and when you
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:11
			look at him you see a reflection of
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:13
			that noor of iman or the noor of
		
00:27:13 --> 00:27:18
			ibadah but there is something missing قَالَ فَرَقِيَ
		
00:27:18 --> 00:27:19
			يَوْمًا he was on the minaret one of
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:22
			those days as it was its habit for
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:25
			adhan and under the minaret or beneath it
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:28
			where he could see look inside there is
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:33
			a house for a christian family he looked
		
00:27:33 --> 00:27:34
			inside one of those days and he said
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:37
			he saw the daughter of the owner of
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:41
			that house and he was enchanted immediately he
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:44
			was in love immediately he lost his mind
		
00:27:44 --> 00:27:46
			immediately what I say lost his mind it
		
00:27:46 --> 00:27:48
			didn't go insane right otherwise he would be
		
00:27:48 --> 00:27:50
			excused but in a sense he lost all
		
00:27:50 --> 00:27:54
			sense so he left the adhan climbed down
		
00:27:54 --> 00:27:58
			came into that house and he said so
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:00
			she was surprised when he came in like
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:02
			that he said who are you what do
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:04
			you want he said I want you she
		
00:28:04 --> 00:28:06
			said why he said indeed you have stolen
		
00:28:06 --> 00:28:09
			my mind and captured my heart I want
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:12
			you and you wonder here what did he
		
00:28:12 --> 00:28:14
			want exactly did he just want to commit
		
00:28:14 --> 00:28:15
			zina with her or did he want to
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:17
			marry her she is the one who had
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:20
			to say I will never do anything wrong
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:22
			she is the one who had to say
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:24
			I will never do anything wrong anything suspicious
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:27
			he said I will marry you she said
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:29
			you are muslim I am christian my father
		
00:28:29 --> 00:28:31
			will never give me to you he says
		
00:28:31 --> 00:28:36
			fine I will be christian she said ok
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:38
			if you do this then I will be
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:41
			married to you so he accepted christianity right
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:42
			there and then so he would marry her
		
00:28:42 --> 00:28:44
			and he stayed with them in the house
		
00:28:44 --> 00:28:48
			same day he wanted something from the roof
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:50
			he went up to the roof he slipped
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:57
			he fell and he died he died he
		
00:28:57 --> 00:28:59
			didn't get her and he lost his religion
		
00:29:01 --> 00:29:04
			now you think about it a person who
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:07
			is in the masjid every single day right
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:09
			and he is worshipping Allah and he is
		
00:29:09 --> 00:29:10
			the one who is calling adhan he is
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:12
			the one who is inviting everybody to the
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:17
			salah but something was missing wasn't it something
		
00:29:17 --> 00:29:20
			was missing on the inside so two things
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:23
			don't just simply be deceived by the outside
		
00:29:25 --> 00:29:28
			especially when it comes to you because you
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:31
			know you so what was on the inside
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:33
			for him that as soon as he saw
		
00:29:33 --> 00:29:36
			her he said I want you and as
		
00:29:36 --> 00:29:37
			soon as she said you have to be
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:40
			christian he said yes he didn't say let
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:42
			me give her dawah let me maybe try
		
00:29:42 --> 00:29:45
			to convert her to islam he said I
		
00:29:45 --> 00:29:46
			want you and it doesn't matter what I
		
00:29:46 --> 00:29:48
			have I will trade it all for you
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:52
			what was missing from his heart from his
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:54
			iman from his practice from his love to
		
00:29:54 --> 00:29:58
			Allah azawajal what was that inside that was
		
00:29:58 --> 00:30:01
			empty that he was willing as some of
		
00:30:01 --> 00:30:04
			us and maybe sometimes a lot of times
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:08
			it's ni'mah from Allah azawajal the only thing
		
00:30:08 --> 00:30:10
			that is stopping us from committing a particular
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:12
			sin is our inability to commit that sin
		
00:30:12 --> 00:30:17
			remember when we talked about from Allah's protection
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:21
			is your inability to find something right you
		
00:30:21 --> 00:30:22
			look at those all those rich people and
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:24
			you see who look how wicked look how
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:27
			terrible look if Allah were to give you
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:31
			that money how would you behave right how
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:34
			would you behave as some of the zuhad
		
00:30:34 --> 00:30:36
			or some of the scholars have said Umar
		
00:30:36 --> 00:30:38
			ibn Abdulaziz is better than me he says
		
00:30:38 --> 00:30:42
			he has the dunya and he rejected it
		
00:30:42 --> 00:30:45
			I don't have it you know what you
		
00:30:45 --> 00:30:46
			understand when you are the khalifa and you
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:50
			can have everything and you say no to
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:52
			it like somebody tells you here is 10
		
00:30:52 --> 00:30:53
			million dollars what would you do with it
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:55
			and you say none I don't want to
		
00:30:55 --> 00:30:58
			do anything wrong with that versus somebody who
		
00:30:58 --> 00:31:01
			is just dreaming he says as long as
		
00:31:01 --> 00:31:04
			he is poor or you know modest living
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:06
			he is fine he is a good person
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:08
			but if you were to give him 10
		
00:31:08 --> 00:31:14
			million dollars all restraints are removed I'll do
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:17
			everything that everybody else does I'll live because
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:19
			I never had the chance to live so
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:22
			maybe in that person's heart was wet okay
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:25
			I'm here I'm fine as long as I'm
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:28
			here but I wish I could do other
		
00:31:28 --> 00:31:31
			things I wish I could get a woman
		
00:31:31 --> 00:31:33
			like that I wish I could commit zina
		
00:31:33 --> 00:31:35
			I wish I could go out and travel
		
00:31:35 --> 00:31:37
			and commit this haram I wish I could
		
00:31:37 --> 00:31:39
			do this and it's all simmering on the
		
00:31:39 --> 00:31:41
			inside it's there and the person does not
		
00:31:41 --> 00:31:43
			detect it or if he is aware of
		
00:31:43 --> 00:31:47
			it does not treat it but it's there
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:50
			until you have the opportunity and when you
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:52
			have the opportunity I'll say I'll sell everything
		
00:31:52 --> 00:31:56
			for this so this probably explains why he
		
00:31:56 --> 00:31:58
			was so eager because there was an emptiness
		
00:32:00 --> 00:32:04
			right and it's not detectable if a person
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:07
			just looks at you from the outside so
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:10
			this is left to what left to you
		
00:32:10 --> 00:32:14
			and to your dua that Allah azawajal cleanse
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:17
			me purify my heart if there is something
		
00:32:17 --> 00:32:20
			missing show me if I love a sin
		
00:32:20 --> 00:32:24
			take that love away from me so I
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:28
			don't collapse at the first invite of that
		
00:32:28 --> 00:32:35
			sin و يروى أن رجلا عشق شخصا and
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:37
			you'll see that Ibn Qayyim rahimahullah that will
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:40
			even become clearer as we move into the
		
00:32:40 --> 00:32:44
			next section Ibn Qayyim rahimahullah is explicit right
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:46
			if there is this sin if this happened
		
00:32:46 --> 00:32:50
			he'll just tell you because if he shares
		
00:32:50 --> 00:32:52
			that with you it means that a lot
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:57
			of other people may find it useful none
		
00:32:57 --> 00:33:00
			less afflicted by exactly the same thing but
		
00:33:00 --> 00:33:05
			something similar to it right but at least
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:08
			you know that this happened and what to
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:11
			do with it قال و يروى أن رجلا
		
00:33:11 --> 00:33:15
			عشق شخصا and it is said that a
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:17
			man fell in love with another mean another
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:21
			man right and his name is Aslam and
		
00:33:21 --> 00:33:23
			he was so obsessed with it with him
		
00:33:23 --> 00:33:26
			and he loved him so much right until
		
00:33:26 --> 00:33:29
			he fell ill and he was bed ridden
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:32
			because of it now I don't know if
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:33
			we have a lot of examples today of
		
00:33:33 --> 00:33:35
			anyone who loves another so much that they
		
00:33:35 --> 00:33:38
			are bed ridden ok I don't know do
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:40
			you guys know of examples like that but
		
00:33:40 --> 00:33:43
			at least right at least in the past
		
00:33:43 --> 00:33:46
			some people would feel like that so I
		
00:33:46 --> 00:33:48
			don't know if this still happens or we
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:52
			have changed الله أعلم anyway so he got
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:54
			bed ridden because of it so sick because
		
00:33:54 --> 00:33:56
			of it and that person did not want
		
00:33:56 --> 00:33:57
			to see him did not want to have
		
00:33:57 --> 00:34:01
			anything to do with him فلم تزل الوسائط
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:04
			يمشون بينه ما حتى وعده بأن يعوده so
		
00:34:04 --> 00:34:06
			mediators who felt sorry for this person he
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:10
			was so sick so terribly ill and so
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:13
			they tried to mediate at least just see
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:15
			him at least just talk to him right
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:18
			maybe that will alleviate some of his pain
		
00:34:18 --> 00:34:20
			some of his sickness maybe at least this
		
00:34:20 --> 00:34:23
			nothing more so they said he's gonna visit
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:27
			you so when that person knew that he
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:29
			actually is gonna come and visit him he
		
00:34:29 --> 00:34:31
			was so elated he was so happy and
		
00:34:31 --> 00:34:34
			he kept waiting for him and the one
		
00:34:34 --> 00:34:36
			mediator who was supposed to bring him he
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:40
			said I escorted him but while he's on
		
00:34:40 --> 00:34:44
			his way he stopped and he said إِنَّهُ
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:50
			ذَكَرَنِي وَفَرَّحَبِي وَبَرَّحَبِي he mentioned me and he
		
00:34:50 --> 00:34:52
			kind of disgraced me and shamed me and
		
00:34:52 --> 00:34:55
			made this public and it's not supposed to
		
00:34:55 --> 00:34:57
			and I will not put myself in a
		
00:34:57 --> 00:35:01
			suspicious location or be with a suspicious person
		
00:35:01 --> 00:35:03
			I don't want to be accused of anything
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:05
			that is haram so I'm not gonna leave
		
00:35:05 --> 00:35:07
			and I'm not gonna go and see him
		
00:35:07 --> 00:35:11
			so when the other person heard that that
		
00:35:11 --> 00:35:13
			he's actually not gonna see him he became
		
00:35:13 --> 00:35:16
			more ill than before and you could see
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:18
			on his face the signs of death he
		
00:35:18 --> 00:35:23
			was approaching death فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ فِي تِلْكَ الْحَالِ
		
00:35:23 --> 00:35:27
			he said two verses of poetry before his
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:31
			death قَالَ يَأَسْلَمُ يَا رَاحَةَ الْعَلِيلِ he says
		
00:35:31 --> 00:35:34
			يَأَسْلَمُ who is comfort of the sick and
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:37
			a cure of one who is sickly and
		
00:35:37 --> 00:35:41
			thin now listen to this because you understand
		
00:35:41 --> 00:35:45
			how love sometimes could be shirk he says
		
00:35:45 --> 00:35:49
			رِضَاكَ your happiness or your satisfaction with me
		
00:35:49 --> 00:35:52
			is closer to my heart than the mercy
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:57
			of Allah he says your happiness with me
		
00:35:57 --> 00:36:01
			your satisfaction your love is dearer to me
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:04
			than the mercy of الخالق الجليل of Allah
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:07
			the creator so the person next to him
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:09
			he says يَا فُلَانِ اتَّقِ اللَّهِ what are
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:13
			you saying قَالَ كَتْكَانِ he says as you
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:18
			hear meaning I am I am as this
		
00:36:18 --> 00:36:21
			is what I feel قَالَ فَقُمْتُ عَنْهُ I
		
00:36:21 --> 00:36:23
			stood up when I reached the door he
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:26
			passed away that's the last thing that he
		
00:36:26 --> 00:36:29
			had said so is this a good end
		
00:36:30 --> 00:36:34
			yeah absolutely not because this statement of his
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:36
			is a statement of disbelief when you love
		
00:36:36 --> 00:36:38
			someone so much and Ibn Khayyam is going
		
00:36:38 --> 00:36:40
			to talk about عِشْق and how it reaches
		
00:36:40 --> 00:36:43
			those levels but when you love someone so
		
00:36:43 --> 00:36:45
			much you attach so much it doesn't matter
		
00:36:45 --> 00:36:49
			another man another man or another woman or
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:52
			this dunya when you attach so much that
		
00:36:52 --> 00:36:54
			it matters to you more than Allah عَزَّ
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:58
			وَجَلَّ and then it becomes your true destination
		
00:36:58 --> 00:37:01
			and that becomes your true God so you
		
00:37:01 --> 00:37:06
			will be failed if that happens so this
		
00:37:06 --> 00:37:08
			is what Ibn Khayyam has and next week
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:11
			we will go into talking about the sin
		
00:37:11 --> 00:37:13
			of the people of Lut and then we'll
		
00:37:13 --> 00:37:19
			talk about inshallah the repentance repentance from the
		
00:37:19 --> 00:37:22
			sin of the people of Lut so let
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:27
			me know inshallah if you have anything any
		
00:37:27 --> 00:37:37
			questions yeah go ahead نعم
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:41
			so the brother is asking if the hammam
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:43
			is prohibited is it the same thing for
		
00:37:43 --> 00:37:51
			massage places if the massage place is untrustworthy
		
00:37:51 --> 00:37:53
			if the massage place is a place where
		
00:37:53 --> 00:37:55
			they have to take off their clothes if
		
00:37:55 --> 00:37:58
			it's suspect then definitely if a massage can
		
00:37:58 --> 00:38:00
			be done well she has her clothes on
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:03
			chiropractor let's say you go to a chiropractor
		
00:38:03 --> 00:38:06
			it's a female chiropractor and they can just
		
00:38:06 --> 00:38:09
			flex and stretch and the body is not
		
00:38:09 --> 00:38:12
			exposed is it if a massage that she
		
00:38:12 --> 00:38:17
			has to strip and it's very likely close
		
00:38:17 --> 00:38:19
			to the condition of a bath house especially
		
00:38:19 --> 00:38:21
			that these places may or may not be
		
00:38:21 --> 00:38:24
			secure that you never know who's there and
		
00:38:24 --> 00:38:26
			you never know who's watching you never know
		
00:38:26 --> 00:38:29
			if there's something someone recording or not so
		
00:38:29 --> 00:38:32
			it's best especially if a person does not
		
00:38:32 --> 00:38:34
			need it it's best that a person does
		
00:38:34 --> 00:38:41
			not go there نعم so what are the
		
00:38:41 --> 00:38:44
			conditions of tawbah so a person has to
		
00:38:44 --> 00:38:49
			regret what they have done and decide never
		
00:38:49 --> 00:38:52
			to go back to it and compensate a
		
00:38:52 --> 00:38:56
			person if that person is involved so you
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:58
			regret it and you say I'm not going
		
00:38:58 --> 00:38:59
			to go back to it you ask Allah
		
00:38:59 --> 00:39:02
			for forgiveness from it and you do certain
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:08
			acts so kind of balance the bad that
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:12
			has been done so salah is one like
		
00:39:12 --> 00:39:15
			salatul tawbah or sadaqah or any good deed
		
00:39:15 --> 00:39:17
			to balance the bad that had been done
		
00:39:17 --> 00:39:19
			and if you have wronged someone to make
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:46
			it up for them so
		
00:39:47 --> 00:39:59
			نعم نعم
		
00:40:05 --> 00:40:07
			so I mean even if you don't go
		
00:40:07 --> 00:40:09
			out on a trip even if you're just
		
00:40:09 --> 00:40:11
			out and about in the city and a
		
00:40:11 --> 00:40:14
			woman would need to use the washroom that
		
00:40:14 --> 00:40:17
			wallahualam is not included in the prohibition because
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:19
			there's a need there's a special need for
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:21
			it whereas the hammam there is no need
		
00:40:21 --> 00:40:23
			for it right or the masaj right there
		
00:40:23 --> 00:40:24
			is no need for it but that there
		
00:40:24 --> 00:40:26
			is a particular need for it so even
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:28
			if you were to travel as you said
		
00:40:28 --> 00:40:30
			and go on a picnic out of the
		
00:40:30 --> 00:40:32
			city on the outskirts of the city and
		
00:40:32 --> 00:40:33
			because of the sheen you need to use
		
00:40:33 --> 00:41:15
			the washroom there's no restrictions there inshallah so
		
00:41:15 --> 00:41:17
			the brother is asking what about those who
		
00:41:17 --> 00:41:19
			are struggling with sin so sometimes he wins
		
00:41:19 --> 00:41:22
			sometimes he loses then what if on one
		
00:41:22 --> 00:41:24
			of those occasions when he's about to lose
		
00:41:24 --> 00:41:26
			or he loses to that sin and he
		
00:41:26 --> 00:41:30
			dies right would when the end is near
		
00:41:30 --> 00:41:32
			would Allah azawajal hold him accountable for that
		
00:41:32 --> 00:41:35
			end for that last act or for the
		
00:41:35 --> 00:41:36
			fact that he was struggling and he was
		
00:41:36 --> 00:41:39
			trying to do good and sometimes he actually
		
00:41:39 --> 00:41:41
			would win and do good so we say
		
00:41:41 --> 00:41:43
			in general wallahualam that if a person is
		
00:41:43 --> 00:41:45
			struggling and by the way who is not
		
00:41:45 --> 00:41:48
			right everybody is struggling with one sin or
		
00:41:48 --> 00:41:50
			another so if a person is struggling with
		
00:41:50 --> 00:41:51
			a sin now what do we mean by
		
00:41:51 --> 00:41:54
			struggling with a sin he hates it so
		
00:41:54 --> 00:41:56
			remember that when I was talking about it
		
00:41:56 --> 00:41:58
			and I said what are the what is
		
00:41:58 --> 00:42:01
			problematic with a sin is a sin that
		
00:42:01 --> 00:42:04
			you have grown accustomed to and you are
		
00:42:04 --> 00:42:07
			happy with or contented with or it's part
		
00:42:07 --> 00:42:09
			of your life it's a normal part of
		
00:42:09 --> 00:42:12
			your life so it's you're not fighting with
		
00:42:12 --> 00:42:13
			it you're not trying to dislodge it from
		
00:42:13 --> 00:42:16
			your routine from your life no this is
		
00:42:16 --> 00:42:18
			it and maybe you even embrace it and
		
00:42:18 --> 00:42:20
			maybe you even are happy with it that's
		
00:42:20 --> 00:42:22
			the type of sin that we're really talking
		
00:42:22 --> 00:42:24
			about but a sin that has embedded itself
		
00:42:24 --> 00:42:27
			into your life but you are unhappy with
		
00:42:27 --> 00:42:29
			it and you're fighting with it and you're
		
00:42:29 --> 00:42:32
			trying to and sometimes as you said you
		
00:42:32 --> 00:42:34
			win and sometimes you lose and that is
		
00:42:34 --> 00:42:36
			the mark of a believer that he's always
		
00:42:36 --> 00:42:38
			struggling and sometimes he will win and sometimes
		
00:42:38 --> 00:42:41
			he will lose if a person is struggling
		
00:42:41 --> 00:42:44
			like that then as we said before this
		
00:42:44 --> 00:42:47
			is jihad this is a state of jihad
		
00:42:48 --> 00:42:51
			and as in a physical actual jihad some
		
00:42:51 --> 00:42:53
			battles will be lost right and some men
		
00:42:53 --> 00:42:56
			will be lost and other battles will be
		
00:42:56 --> 00:42:59
			won so as long as that is the
		
00:42:59 --> 00:43:01
			case then that person was excluded from what
		
00:43:01 --> 00:43:04
			we're talking about he's excluded from what we're
		
00:43:04 --> 00:43:07
			talking about and it's not likely that that
		
00:43:07 --> 00:43:09
			person will die in a state where the
		
00:43:09 --> 00:43:10
			last thing that he has done is a
		
00:43:10 --> 00:43:14
			bad thing no because he's not happy with
		
00:43:14 --> 00:43:17
			it, he's fighting and he's asking Allah azawajal
		
00:43:17 --> 00:43:19
			it's likely that the last thing that he
		
00:43:19 --> 00:43:20
			will do will be something that is pleasing
		
00:43:20 --> 00:43:23
			to Allah azawajal because Allah knows in his
		
00:43:23 --> 00:43:25
			heart he hates that thing in his life
		
00:43:25 --> 00:43:27
			and he doesn't want it and he's trying
		
00:43:27 --> 00:43:29
			yet there's that element of human weakness if
		
00:43:29 --> 00:43:31
			that's the case he's not going to die
		
00:43:31 --> 00:43:33
			doing something bad he's going to do something
		
00:43:33 --> 00:43:39
			good dying while doing bad that's reserved for
		
00:43:39 --> 00:43:41
			those who have been concealing that sin so
		
00:43:41 --> 00:43:45
			apparently ostensibly they look fine but on the
		
00:43:45 --> 00:43:49
			inside they are not absolutely so that's what
		
00:43:49 --> 00:44:21
			we say inshallah okay so
		
00:44:21 --> 00:44:23
			the other is asking is there a difference
		
00:44:23 --> 00:44:26
			between a natural feeling of regret and something
		
00:44:26 --> 00:44:29
			that you force on yourself so sometimes when
		
00:44:29 --> 00:44:31
			you commit a sin especially that happens in
		
00:44:31 --> 00:44:34
			the beginning of the act or the adoption
		
00:44:34 --> 00:44:38
			of that sin you're naturally regretful because you've
		
00:44:38 --> 00:44:39
			done something like this as you get more
		
00:44:39 --> 00:44:44
			used to it that natural regret declines so
		
00:44:44 --> 00:44:46
			you want to force yourself to feel regret
		
00:44:46 --> 00:44:49
			so is there a difference between them obviously
		
00:44:49 --> 00:44:52
			the first regret is stronger because it's more
		
00:44:52 --> 00:44:55
			genuine and it comes from you but the
		
00:44:55 --> 00:44:59
			second regret is nonetheless regret because you know
		
00:44:59 --> 00:45:01
			that it's wrong and you're trying to remind
		
00:45:01 --> 00:45:04
			yourself that it is wrong and to instill
		
00:45:04 --> 00:45:07
			in your heart that feeling of regret so
		
00:45:07 --> 00:45:09
			as long as you are doing it that's
		
00:45:09 --> 00:45:11
			part of the process of fighting that sin
		
00:45:11 --> 00:45:13
			because not all sins are going to be
		
00:45:14 --> 00:45:17
			easily you could easily get rid of them
		
00:45:18 --> 00:45:20
			some sins as I said they do embed
		
00:45:20 --> 00:45:22
			themselves into your life, into your mind, into
		
00:45:22 --> 00:45:24
			your routine so of course you're not going
		
00:45:24 --> 00:45:27
			to be as repulsed as other sins that
		
00:45:27 --> 00:45:30
			are totally new and you're not even being
		
00:45:30 --> 00:45:32
			attracted to them, so to that you need
		
00:45:32 --> 00:45:36
			to enforce that regret and when you do
		
00:45:36 --> 00:45:41
			it could turn again into a natural regret
		
00:45:41 --> 00:45:45
			or natural repulsion but it needs time so
		
00:45:45 --> 00:45:47
			yes they are different but both of them
		
00:45:47 --> 00:45:50
			are essential so whether you find it within
		
00:45:50 --> 00:45:52
			yourself that it is wrong or you force
		
00:45:52 --> 00:45:55
			yourself to feel it, both are important and
		
00:45:55 --> 00:45:57
			by the way if you force yourself to
		
00:45:57 --> 00:46:00
			feel it enough times it becomes natural but
		
00:46:00 --> 00:46:02
			you just have to remind yourself of why
		
00:46:02 --> 00:46:06
			it is so wrong, so something like zina
		
00:46:06 --> 00:46:09
			let's say even though a person on one
		
00:46:09 --> 00:46:13
			side is attracted to an act like this,
		
00:46:13 --> 00:46:16
			but if you remind yourself of all the
		
00:46:16 --> 00:46:21
			impurities and contamination, internal and internal, all of
		
00:46:21 --> 00:46:24
			the sins, all of the repercussions of it
		
00:46:24 --> 00:46:26
			why Allah hates it, and you think about
		
00:46:26 --> 00:46:29
			who does zina, and what type of person
		
00:46:29 --> 00:46:33
			is he, how Allah looks at them you'll
		
00:46:33 --> 00:46:35
			start to actually be disgusted by it even
		
00:46:35 --> 00:46:38
			though part of you likes it so if
		
00:46:38 --> 00:46:41
			you force yourself like that, psychologically mentally and
		
00:46:41 --> 00:46:45
			iman wise that forcing turns it into something
		
00:46:45 --> 00:46:55
			more natural, what makes
		
00:46:55 --> 00:47:02
			kibr so dangerous because kibr is dangerous because
		
00:47:02 --> 00:47:05
			it leads let's say mainly to two things
		
00:47:05 --> 00:47:07
			when the prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
		
00:47:09 --> 00:47:11
			batrul haqqi wa ghamtul nas rejection of the
		
00:47:11 --> 00:47:13
			truth and belittling people it leads to two
		
00:47:13 --> 00:47:19
			things rejection of the truth and belittling of
		
00:47:19 --> 00:47:22
			people that's why it's dangerous because when it
		
00:47:22 --> 00:47:24
			comes to the truth you'll reject it because
		
00:47:24 --> 00:47:27
			of kibr so all of the sharia becomes
		
00:47:27 --> 00:47:30
			beneath a person so he doesn't follow it,
		
00:47:30 --> 00:47:32
			or he follows what he likes anything else
		
00:47:32 --> 00:47:34
			that he does not like is beneath him,
		
00:47:34 --> 00:47:37
			so he rejects the truth so that's on
		
00:47:37 --> 00:47:41
			it's own extremely dangerous ghamtul nas, belittling people
		
00:47:41 --> 00:47:44
			again everybody around you is less than you
		
00:47:44 --> 00:47:47
			so if you think about people like that
		
00:47:47 --> 00:47:48
			think about what you will do to them
		
00:47:48 --> 00:47:52
			how you will treat them from simply being
		
00:47:52 --> 00:47:54
			rude and unkind all the way to killing
		
00:47:54 --> 00:47:57
			a person because he is less than you
		
00:47:57 --> 00:48:00
			that's why it's so dangerous what else did
		
00:48:00 --> 00:48:00
			you ask?
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:10
			how does it develop?
		
00:48:10 --> 00:48:12
			it develops when a person thinks that he
		
00:48:12 --> 00:48:15
			is better than another because of what they
		
00:48:15 --> 00:48:19
			have what they have earned that's how so
		
00:48:19 --> 00:48:21
			if a person does not have money but
		
00:48:21 --> 00:48:24
			he has money he starts thinking that he
		
00:48:24 --> 00:48:25
			is better than other people because of the
		
00:48:25 --> 00:48:28
			money that he has or because of his
		
00:48:28 --> 00:48:32
			degree or because of his position so whenever
		
00:48:32 --> 00:48:34
			you gain things in life when you don't
		
00:48:34 --> 00:48:36
			have anything you can still be arrogant even
		
00:48:36 --> 00:48:39
			if you have nothing you can be poor
		
00:48:39 --> 00:48:41
			and still be arrogant thinking that you are
		
00:48:41 --> 00:48:43
			better than anybody else it's just that you
		
00:48:43 --> 00:48:45
			are not fortunate enough like anybody else were
		
00:48:45 --> 00:48:46
			you to be fortunate you would be better
		
00:48:46 --> 00:48:48
			than the best people you can still be
		
00:48:48 --> 00:48:52
			arrogant but typically it's when you have things
		
00:48:52 --> 00:48:54
			and these things kind of feed that arrogance
		
00:48:54 --> 00:48:56
			and you think that you are better than
		
00:48:56 --> 00:48:59
			others because of these things but you need
		
00:48:59 --> 00:49:01
			to medicate yourself you need to understand that
		
00:49:01 --> 00:49:05
			things are not you and Allah has given
		
00:49:05 --> 00:49:09
			you but has also given other people you
		
00:49:09 --> 00:49:11
			are not the only person who is rich
		
00:49:11 --> 00:49:12
			you are not the only person who is
		
00:49:12 --> 00:49:13
			smart you are not the only person who
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:16
			is talented other people have talents as well
		
00:49:17 --> 00:49:20
			and as you also have skills you have
		
00:49:20 --> 00:49:22
			deficiencies so you have to be aware of
		
00:49:22 --> 00:49:26
			your own deficiencies shortcomings so when you look
		
00:49:26 --> 00:49:29
			at these things then you will be able
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:32
			inshallah to treat it and of course if
		
00:49:32 --> 00:49:36
			you simply read the Qur'an with understanding
		
00:49:36 --> 00:49:37
			and read the Sunnah with understanding you will
		
00:49:37 --> 00:49:40
			find that on multiple ways and in multiple
		
00:49:44 --> 00:49:46
			places and in multiple ways they will treat
		
00:49:46 --> 00:49:48
			it even if you are not aware that
		
00:49:48 --> 00:50:32
			they are doing that so
		
00:50:33 --> 00:50:36
			the brother is asking we talked about unconscious
		
00:50:36 --> 00:50:39
			or subconscious obsessions where a person would not
		
00:50:39 --> 00:50:41
			be aware of what he is attracted to
		
00:50:42 --> 00:50:45
			until it actually he is presented with those
		
00:50:45 --> 00:50:48
			opportunities and then he finds out that he
		
00:50:48 --> 00:50:51
			is capable so it says how do you
		
00:50:51 --> 00:50:54
			know that you are attracted to these things
		
00:50:56 --> 00:50:58
			you could ask yourself first of all am
		
00:50:58 --> 00:51:01
			I attracted to sin like am I pleased
		
00:51:01 --> 00:51:03
			with it, am I happy with it do
		
00:51:03 --> 00:51:05
			I admire it, do I admire the people
		
00:51:05 --> 00:51:08
			who do it so if you find yourself
		
00:51:08 --> 00:51:11
			for instance you admire, let's take an example
		
00:51:12 --> 00:51:17
			entertainers and you admire athletes and you admire
		
00:51:17 --> 00:51:19
			their lifestyle even though you go to the
		
00:51:19 --> 00:51:22
			masjid, you pray but you admire that lifestyle
		
00:51:22 --> 00:51:25
			you are impressed by it what does that
		
00:51:25 --> 00:51:27
			say about your values and what does that
		
00:51:27 --> 00:51:30
			say about what you would want for yourself
		
00:51:30 --> 00:51:35
			because that's attractive and you see yourself following
		
00:51:35 --> 00:51:37
			their news and interested in what they have
		
00:51:37 --> 00:51:40
			done and interested in their last escapades and
		
00:51:40 --> 00:51:45
			their last foray into this and that and
		
00:51:45 --> 00:51:47
			purchase and transfer so if you are that
		
00:51:47 --> 00:51:50
			interested it means that part of you is
		
00:51:50 --> 00:51:52
			there part of you is living that life
		
00:51:52 --> 00:51:55
			through them, so if someone were to actually
		
00:51:55 --> 00:51:57
			offer you the opportunity and say would you
		
00:51:57 --> 00:51:59
			want to be one of them that part
		
00:51:59 --> 00:52:00
			of you that is attracted to it that
		
00:52:00 --> 00:52:05
			keeps following it would say what yes and
		
00:52:05 --> 00:52:07
			then you could see that in yourself based
		
00:52:07 --> 00:52:08
			on how you spend your time what you
		
00:52:08 --> 00:52:11
			think about so what I am saying is
		
00:52:11 --> 00:52:13
			you are not conscious of it, you are
		
00:52:13 --> 00:52:15
			not conscious of it because you haven't thought
		
00:52:15 --> 00:52:18
			about it but if you just simply examine
		
00:52:18 --> 00:52:20
			what you think about, what you are interested
		
00:52:20 --> 00:52:23
			in what makes you happy and what makes
		
00:52:23 --> 00:52:25
			you sad and how you spend your time
		
00:52:25 --> 00:52:28
			and how you would say if I had
		
00:52:28 --> 00:52:31
			an opportunity how would I live differently if
		
00:52:31 --> 00:52:32
			you would say that path that would tell
		
00:52:32 --> 00:52:35
			you what you are attracted to and what
		
00:52:35 --> 00:52:36
			you would do if you had the opportunity
		
00:52:36 --> 00:52:40
			and ultimately if a person is unaware of
		
00:52:40 --> 00:52:42
			these things he asks Allah for them if
		
00:52:42 --> 00:52:45
			I am attracted to sin if I am
		
00:52:45 --> 00:52:46
			attracted to it but I am unaware of
		
00:52:46 --> 00:52:48
			it take that attraction away from me if
		
00:52:48 --> 00:52:51
			I am tested if there is a fitna,
		
00:52:51 --> 00:52:53
			protect me from the fitna that is why
		
00:52:53 --> 00:52:55
			we pray to Allah that he protects us
		
00:52:55 --> 00:52:57
			from the fitna because some of these fitna
		
00:52:57 --> 00:52:59
			are so strong that you do not know
		
00:52:59 --> 00:53:01
			if your iman is strong enough to be
		
00:53:01 --> 00:53:03
			able to survive that is why we ask
		
00:53:03 --> 00:53:05
			Allah for it so you ask Allah for
		
00:53:05 --> 00:53:21
			it so inspection and then dua the
		
00:53:21 --> 00:53:22
			best amsari what?
		
00:53:39 --> 00:53:41
			like as a remedy right?
		
00:53:41 --> 00:53:43
			yeah as a remedy do you think that
		
00:53:43 --> 00:53:45
			as a remedy like saying istighfar the whole
		
00:53:45 --> 00:53:49
			day is a good way to overcome the
		
00:53:49 --> 00:53:51
			sins that we have done and the attraction
		
00:53:51 --> 00:53:53
			to that sin definitely anything that keeps you
		
00:53:53 --> 00:53:57
			connected to Allah azawajal istighfar is very effective
		
00:53:57 --> 00:54:00
			because it removes those sins and if it
		
00:54:00 --> 00:54:03
			removes those sins hopefully it also removes attachment
		
00:54:03 --> 00:54:06
			to them so when there is distance between
		
00:54:06 --> 00:54:09
			you and a sin you will find that
		
00:54:09 --> 00:54:11
			it has less of a hold on you
		
00:54:11 --> 00:54:14
			just because there is distance you forget so
		
00:54:14 --> 00:54:17
			any one of you and there is always
		
00:54:17 --> 00:54:21
			perils to to life, to sin and other
		
00:54:22 --> 00:54:24
			aspects of your life if you want to
		
00:54:24 --> 00:54:25
			stay away from let's say you are on
		
00:54:25 --> 00:54:27
			a diet and you want to stay away
		
00:54:27 --> 00:54:28
			from bad food right?
		
00:54:29 --> 00:54:31
			your diet is not going to be successful
		
00:54:31 --> 00:54:33
			if the food is always around you but
		
00:54:33 --> 00:54:35
			if you are distant from it you are
		
00:54:35 --> 00:54:38
			not going to think about it and if
		
00:54:38 --> 00:54:40
			you stop thinking about it for a while
		
00:54:40 --> 00:54:41
			it is not going to be as attractive
		
00:54:42 --> 00:54:42
			right?
		
00:54:43 --> 00:54:45
			but if every time you are living under
		
00:54:45 --> 00:54:48
			like next to a bakery let's say and
		
00:54:48 --> 00:54:51
			every time you come back home you smell
		
00:54:51 --> 00:54:53
			whatever they have baked that would be incredibly
		
00:54:53 --> 00:54:56
			hard for you to maintain a diet right?
		
00:54:56 --> 00:54:58
			away from whatever they are selling but if
		
00:54:58 --> 00:55:00
			you move away from it you are not
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:01
			going to think about their product so the
		
00:55:01 --> 00:55:03
			same thing with sin if you just stay
		
00:55:03 --> 00:55:05
			away from it because you think I can't
		
00:55:05 --> 00:55:07
			live without it there are a lot of
		
00:55:07 --> 00:55:08
			things that we say how can I live
		
00:55:08 --> 00:55:09
			without it right?
		
00:55:09 --> 00:55:11
			because it is part of my life it
		
00:55:11 --> 00:55:12
			is part of society it is part of
		
00:55:12 --> 00:55:14
			how I grew up but it is just
		
00:55:14 --> 00:55:17
			it is not natural it is artificial somebody
		
00:55:17 --> 00:55:19
			put it there if you just move away
		
00:55:19 --> 00:55:22
			from it it is done if you move
		
00:55:22 --> 00:55:24
			away from it it is done and what
		
00:55:24 --> 00:55:26
			will help you is putting more of Allah
		
00:55:26 --> 00:55:28
			azza wa jal into your life that will
		
00:55:28 --> 00:55:30
			give you strength and distance from that sin
		
00:55:30 --> 00:55:32
			and then energy to stay you know to
		
00:55:32 --> 00:55:34
			it the next time shaytan comes and says
		
00:55:34 --> 00:55:37
			well how about that okay let's go back
		
00:55:37 --> 00:55:40
			to that he is saying no I have
		
00:55:40 --> 00:55:43
			an alternative and then once you brush it
		
00:55:43 --> 00:56:04
			aside it will be done yeah no
		
00:56:17 --> 00:56:18
			so if there is a call if you
		
00:56:18 --> 00:56:20
			feel a call on the inside to do
		
00:56:20 --> 00:56:26
			something haram it is typically typically your nafs
		
00:56:26 --> 00:56:29
			and the shaytan because then your nafs will
		
00:56:29 --> 00:56:32
			gravitate towards some wrong things as well as
		
00:56:32 --> 00:56:35
			some good things right some innocuous halal things
		
00:56:35 --> 00:56:36
			you know no one cares about they can
		
00:56:36 --> 00:56:38
			do whatever you want but also will gravitate
		
00:56:38 --> 00:56:41
			towards haram things if it goes towards haram
		
00:56:41 --> 00:56:43
			things it is guaranteed that the shaytan is
		
00:56:43 --> 00:56:45
			right next to it because he will always
		
00:56:45 --> 00:56:48
			invest in that opportunity of let me push
		
00:56:48 --> 00:56:51
			him towards things that he wants and they
		
00:56:51 --> 00:56:52
			are haram he is not going to push
		
00:56:52 --> 00:56:54
			you towards haram that you don't like that
		
00:56:54 --> 00:56:56
			is a later stage if he convinces you
		
00:56:56 --> 00:56:59
			to transition from this haram into another type
		
00:56:59 --> 00:57:01
			of haram he will do that but that
		
00:57:01 --> 00:57:07
			involves changing your fitrah loving for instance you
		
00:57:07 --> 00:57:09
			know to kill people or loving the fitrah
		
00:57:09 --> 00:57:12
			has to change for him to convince you
		
00:57:12 --> 00:57:14
			that this is also good and then the
		
00:57:14 --> 00:57:16
			self will ask you to do this as
		
00:57:16 --> 00:57:19
			well but in terms of kind of natural
		
00:57:19 --> 00:57:22
			attractions if the self is asking you and
		
00:57:22 --> 00:57:23
			the nafs is asking you to do something
		
00:57:23 --> 00:57:25
			haram you bet that the shaytan is actually
		
00:57:25 --> 00:57:26
			doing the same thing he is right there
		
00:57:26 --> 00:57:29
			he is not going to be independent yeah
		
00:57:30 --> 00:57:31
			and he is not going to ask you
		
00:57:31 --> 00:57:34
			to do something that is haram but the
		
00:57:34 --> 00:57:36
			nafs is not attracted to you are not
		
00:57:36 --> 00:57:46
			going to listen so he is saying
		
00:57:46 --> 00:57:49
			istighfar does it wash away major sins or
		
00:57:49 --> 00:57:53
			also minor sins so scholars you know have
		
00:57:53 --> 00:57:56
			two opinions about major sins so some scholars
		
00:57:56 --> 00:57:58
			will say the only thing that can erase
		
00:57:58 --> 00:58:02
			a major sin is tawbah okay so istighfar
		
00:58:02 --> 00:58:05
			works but only with minor sins and other
		
00:58:05 --> 00:58:08
			scholars will say no there is enough of
		
00:58:08 --> 00:58:12
			it if it is sincere enough then yeah
		
00:58:12 --> 00:58:14
			it can go all the way into erasing
		
00:58:14 --> 00:58:18
			major sins as well so what we say
		
00:58:18 --> 00:58:22
			is to be safe if you know of
		
00:58:22 --> 00:58:26
			any major sin repent from it you want
		
00:58:26 --> 00:58:28
			to be safe right based on what both
		
00:58:28 --> 00:58:31
			say any major sin repent from it but
		
00:58:31 --> 00:58:34
			also say as much istighfar as possible because
		
00:58:34 --> 00:58:35
			you do not know it is not only
		
00:58:35 --> 00:58:37
			going to take care of the minor according
		
00:58:37 --> 00:58:40
			to some scholars the major as well the
		
00:58:40 --> 00:58:42
			least of what it does and it is
		
00:58:42 --> 00:58:44
			not the least but the least of what
		
00:58:44 --> 00:58:46
			it does if it does anything it gives
		
00:58:46 --> 00:58:50
			you energy the istighfar gives you energy to
		
00:58:50 --> 00:58:53
			say no because you have more of Allah
		
00:58:53 --> 00:58:57
			azawajal's fear and love in you so when
		
00:58:57 --> 00:58:59
			the shaitan comes you are strong enough to
		
00:58:59 --> 00:59:02
			say no so that protects you from future
		
00:59:02 --> 00:59:07
			sins minor and major so if we say
		
00:59:07 --> 00:59:09
			if we stress the mercy of Allah azawajal
		
00:59:09 --> 00:59:12
			the all encompassing mercy of Allah we say
		
00:59:12 --> 00:59:14
			it takes care of all sins but we
		
00:59:14 --> 00:59:15
			say you know what if you want to
		
00:59:15 --> 00:59:18
			be really really safe if you know of
		
00:59:18 --> 00:59:20
			a major sin that you have done repent
		
00:59:20 --> 00:59:24
			in particular from that sin then be in
		
00:59:24 --> 00:59:38
			Allah azawajal yusuf hmm
		
00:59:44 --> 00:59:54
			now now so the brother is
		
00:59:54 --> 00:59:56
			asking he says we say that the person
		
00:59:56 --> 00:59:57
			who is safe from a bad end the
		
00:59:57 --> 01:00:00
			one who is inwardly and outwardly good but
		
01:00:00 --> 01:00:01
			who could ever say about themselves that they
		
01:00:01 --> 01:00:04
			are inwardly good wouldn't a believer always say
		
01:00:04 --> 01:00:05
			that they are inwardly deficient yes you are
		
01:00:05 --> 01:00:09
			right no one can say about themselves no
		
01:00:09 --> 01:00:11
			never should they say about themselves I am
		
01:00:11 --> 01:00:15
			inwardly good I am inwardly fine I have
		
01:00:15 --> 01:00:18
			a great iman they are always suspicious and
		
01:00:18 --> 01:00:20
			that suspicion is good it's not an obsession
		
01:00:20 --> 01:00:26
			it's not it's not a debilitating kind of
		
01:00:26 --> 01:00:31
			suspicion it's an uplifting suspicion where you say
		
01:00:31 --> 01:00:33
			I am not sure let me do more
		
01:00:33 --> 01:00:36
			right just like a person who may believe
		
01:00:36 --> 01:00:37
			that he doesn't have enough money so he
		
01:00:37 --> 01:00:39
			keeps working and working and collecting more money
		
01:00:39 --> 01:00:41
			because he never thinks that he has enough
		
01:00:41 --> 01:00:43
			that's why you don't think you ever have
		
01:00:43 --> 01:00:45
			enough so you keep working and working and
		
01:00:45 --> 01:00:47
			working but you never say I've reached I'm
		
01:00:47 --> 01:00:49
			at that level I'm great because you never
		
01:00:49 --> 01:00:51
			know maybe there is like an element inside
		
01:00:51 --> 01:00:55
			that is hidden from you that is corrupt
		
01:00:55 --> 01:00:56
			and Allah hates and you don't know about
		
01:00:57 --> 01:00:59
			maybe you've done a lot of good things
		
01:00:59 --> 01:01:00
			but you think that it's good things but
		
01:01:00 --> 01:01:02
			a lot of it wasn't for Allah azawajal
		
01:01:02 --> 01:01:05
			so you never ever say I'm good on
		
01:01:05 --> 01:01:08
			the inside but it is for others right
		
01:01:08 --> 01:01:11
			who will look at you or would know
		
01:01:11 --> 01:01:14
			things about you or in theory because he's
		
01:01:14 --> 01:01:15
			talking about those who are good and bad
		
01:01:15 --> 01:01:18
			good on the inside and outside he's talking
		
01:01:18 --> 01:01:20
			theoretically so if you happen to be that
		
01:01:20 --> 01:01:22
			person but we don't know if you are
		
01:01:22 --> 01:01:23
			and you don't know if you are but
		
01:01:23 --> 01:01:26
			only Allah knows if you are that person
		
01:01:26 --> 01:01:28
			then you will escape it so then you
		
01:01:28 --> 01:01:30
			try to be as good on the inside
		
01:01:30 --> 01:01:35
			as you are on the outside Peace be
		
01:01:35 --> 01:02:23
			upon you so
		
01:02:23 --> 01:02:25
			you're saying that one of the conditions for
		
01:02:25 --> 01:02:27
			repentance is a person to be sincere in
		
01:02:27 --> 01:02:31
			his repentance so a person wants to repent
		
01:02:31 --> 01:02:33
			from a sin but he knows that the
		
01:02:33 --> 01:02:35
			following day he's not going to be strong
		
01:02:35 --> 01:02:38
			enough to abstain from that sin how could
		
01:02:38 --> 01:02:43
			that repentance be accepted or be sincere enough
		
01:02:43 --> 01:02:49
			so let's say first of all a person
		
01:02:49 --> 01:02:52
			could resolve at that moment right after the
		
01:02:52 --> 01:02:55
			committing of that sin is that I will
		
01:02:55 --> 01:02:57
			quit like I will quit it I will
		
01:02:57 --> 01:03:01
			do everything in my power to stop and
		
01:03:01 --> 01:03:07
			at that moment he may not have a
		
01:03:07 --> 01:03:09
			forecast of what's going to happen tomorrow necessarily
		
01:03:09 --> 01:03:12
			that maybe he will have enough strength but
		
01:03:12 --> 01:03:15
			at least if he's resolved to do everything
		
01:03:15 --> 01:03:16
			in his power he says that's it for
		
01:03:16 --> 01:03:20
			this sin never more I ask Allah for
		
01:03:20 --> 01:03:23
			forgiveness and I will stop at that moment
		
01:03:23 --> 01:03:26
			if he's honest if he's sincere that's a
		
01:03:26 --> 01:03:30
			repentance whether or not he returns to that
		
01:03:30 --> 01:03:32
			sin the very next day because of circumstances
		
01:03:32 --> 01:03:35
			that he could not avoid or what have
		
01:03:35 --> 01:03:38
			you does not interfere with the fact that
		
01:03:38 --> 01:03:42
			that sin or that repentance was as sincere
		
01:03:42 --> 01:03:44
			as he could at that moment now that's
		
01:03:44 --> 01:03:48
			one answer the other answer is you also
		
01:03:48 --> 01:03:52
			build up your repentance so you may not
		
01:03:52 --> 01:03:55
			have the best of repentance at this moment
		
01:03:55 --> 01:03:58
			but you build up towards it you build
		
01:03:58 --> 01:04:00
			up to a moment where your repentance is
		
01:04:00 --> 01:04:03
			strong enough that you actually do not return
		
01:04:03 --> 01:04:05
			to that sin or if you return it's
		
01:04:05 --> 01:04:08
			not a frequent return so you build up
		
01:04:08 --> 01:04:10
			so you say no I will not do
		
01:04:10 --> 01:04:12
			this and you ask Allah for forgiveness and
		
01:04:12 --> 01:04:14
			you take one or two steps towards that
		
01:04:14 --> 01:04:17
			solution but maybe you commit that again the
		
01:04:17 --> 01:04:20
			next day but then you repent again and
		
01:04:20 --> 01:04:22
			then you climb a little bit higher and
		
01:04:22 --> 01:04:23
			saying okay I'm going to try to avoid
		
01:04:23 --> 01:04:24
			it this way and I'm going to make
		
01:04:24 --> 01:04:27
			more dua and if you come back then
		
01:04:27 --> 01:04:29
			do it the next week but then you
		
01:04:29 --> 01:04:31
			also take a few extra steps and you
		
01:04:31 --> 01:04:35
			do more dua and your repentance grows stronger
		
01:04:35 --> 01:04:38
			and you grow in determination until it is
		
01:04:38 --> 01:04:41
			strong enough that it is bigger than that
		
01:04:41 --> 01:04:43
			sin and then you've reached that level, that
		
01:04:43 --> 01:04:46
			threshold where you okay now your repentance is
		
01:04:46 --> 01:04:48
			good but you built up to it so
		
01:04:48 --> 01:04:51
			yes it may not be the stellar repentance
		
01:04:51 --> 01:04:54
			that moment but it doesn't mean it doesn't
		
01:04:54 --> 01:04:57
			work or that it is like sincerity but
		
01:04:57 --> 01:05:00
			it's incomplete but you're working towards the completeness
		
01:05:23 --> 01:05:27
			so if you pray if you pray the
		
01:05:27 --> 01:05:29
			prophet said as if you prayed the whole
		
01:05:29 --> 01:05:32
			night the whole night in qiyam so if
		
01:05:32 --> 01:05:39
			you die that time yes yeah yeah yeah
		
01:05:39 --> 01:05:42
			if that is accepted from that person that's
		
01:05:42 --> 01:05:49
			what is written for him okay okay see
		
01:05:49 --> 01:05:49
			you next week
