Alima Ashfaq – Be Active In Ramadan

			Santa Monica de la this Ramadan, I want to remind you about the importance of Iman and Muhammad, the
importance of faith and action. We learned through the example out of our beloved Prophet alayhi
salatu salam that he was seeking a way out he was seeking an answer. And he went and he self
isolated himself in the cave of Hira and Allah Subhan Allah, Allah He heard his there are and Allah
is part of the highlands saw his struggle, and he sent revelation to him, you know, and the prophet
Ali said to Sam, once the revelation came, he left the cave of Hira and he was at the service of his
people. And for that reason, the prophet it said Islam during Ramadan, he would recite all the
		

			Quran, but he also gave the most charity. And for this reason, Allah Allah Allah reminds us about
the importance of good action. He says, Men Amina Sally Hammond Decker in a concert. Well who are
not me I'm very lucky and no higher than a year but when an agency and Nahum edge are home BSN
America and we are doing, Allah, Allah, Allah in Surah, Allah had in ini D seven, he says, Whoever
does righteousness, whether male or female, you know Allah Subhan Allah and they are a believer,
Allah Subhana Allah he will reward you for your goodness, he will reward you for your good action.
And then we have another example of a concerned parent, a father, he turned around to his child and
		

			he says, Yeah, Bonnie, happy Masada What are motivated now? If you want her anymore Carrie was
better ILM and on for Becca inevitably came in as male or more. He says, Oh, my son established the
salah, and then enjoin in good and forbid evil. You know, he's telling his son that your salah is
the first thing you will be asked about, in the Day of Judgment. It is your conversation with Allah
subhanaw taala. But after that, you must be you must be in joining in good you must be in service of
his people you must be of those who do good. You know, we are not people who are just dedicated to
our salah, even though that's important. We are people who live the Salah, we are people who live
		

			Islam who live the spirit of giving. And for that reason, the Prophet alayhi salatu salam, he
reminded us in a Baba Ronnie, he said, the most beloved people to Allah are those who are most
beneficial to him, you know, and the most beloved people to Allah, those who bring happiness to
others. So this Ramadan, I want to ask you, what are you doing to bring happiness to others? What
are you doing to bring ease to others? What are you doing to help transform someone's darkness into
light? Whether it's your family, whether it's a community member, whether it's a neighbor, whether
it's a normal, new Muslim, you know, whether it's a struggling Muslim, because we have so many
		

			people who were struggling in the men, what are you doing to help them come closer to Allah? Because
this Ramadan cannot just be about me, myself and i It can't be about my Iftar and my taraweeh even
though that is wonderful, and that is important to me, Allah Subhana Allah reward you for your
struggle, but what are you doing to go the extra step to help someone else? What are you doing to
make a difference to somebody else's life and when you make that extra step, Allah subhanaw taala he
will make your life easier, he will find individuals in your life who bring you happiness. So this
Ramadan, I hope that you can be at the service of others and I hope Allah started the island sends
		

			wonderful people in your life who you know bring happiness to you. So I hope you continue to have a
wonderful from Yvonne and may Allah subhanaw taala he accept all your eyes, back Lo Fi come in slo
