Amjad Tarsin – Sincerity Of The Heart

Alhamdulillah.

Alhamdani wa fi ni'ma huwa yukaafi mazeeda.

Allahumma salli wa sallim ala Sayyidina Muhammadin maftahi

babi rahmatillah.

Adadama fi ilman la salatan wa salaman daimayni

bidawami mulki Allah wa ala alihi wa sahbihi

wa man walah.

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says in the

Quran, Wa man ahsanu qawlam mimman da'a

ila Allahi wa amila salihan?

Wa qala innani minal muslimeen.

Who is better in speech?

In other words, it's rhetorical.

There's no one better than one who uses

the faculty of speech to invite and call

people to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

Wa man ahsanu qawlam mimman da'a ila

Allah.

The greatest thing that you can do is

invite people to Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala,

to call them to their Lord, to connect

them to their Creator jalla jalaluhu.

Then the verse continues, Wa amila salihan.

And does righteous deeds, engages in the things

that we have to do for our Lord

subhanahu wa ta'ala.

The five daily prayers, zakat, beautiful character, and

so on and so forth.

And then finally, Wa qala innani minal muslimeen.

And says I am one of the Muslims.

Scholars say that it's not necessarily a verbal,

Hey everyone, I'm Muslim.

I'm Muslim.

Hey everyone, I'm Muslim.

But actually, everything that that person does testifies

to the fact that they are a Muslim.

Their neighborliness testifies to the fact that they're

Muslim.

Their truthfulness and integrity shows that they are

a Muslim.

The way that they treat their family, the

beautiful reminders that we just heard.

Every single thing that we do that indicates

our sincerity and embodying what it truly means

to be a Muslim speaks for itself.

And it's not a lot of words, and

it's not fancy speeches, and it's not people

who are on, you know, big podiums necessarily,

who are the ones who are really going

to change people's hearts.

It's not just fancy words.

It's not necessarily even just being eloquent.

If that was the case, Prophet Harun was

more eloquent than Prophet Musa Alayhi Salaam.

But he was of a higher rank with

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

And he's the one who included his brother

Harun Alayhi Salaam in prophecy.

But Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, the state

of the hearts, the sincerity, the trueness, the

genuine care and concern, and embodying what Allah

Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala wants from us, that

is what speaks volumes.

We ask Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala for

tawfiq, and that he makes us people who

are true and sincere in all that we

do, and that Allah makes us keys that

open doors of goodness and locks that close

doors of evil.

Wa salallahu wasalam ala Sayyidina Muhammad wa ala

alihi wa sahbihi ajma'in.

walhamdulillahi rabbil alamin.
