salam ala Rasulillah while I do cyber circumcision cathedra shadow Allah Allah Allah Allah who will actually pick it up.

00:00:11--> 00:00:11

So

00:00:13--> 00:00:19

welcome everybody to this week's Friday Night Lights. And that Hamdulillah

00:00:20--> 00:01:00

you know, we're going to welcome back chef who eat he's been gone for a couple of weeks went to Oberon came back, and we missed them. So welcome back. Thank you, Zack. Absolutely. Today's session is on a really, really beautiful, obviously an important session. And that's Jenna. A description of Jannah. And believing in it, of course, is one of the pillars of our faith. It's one of the pillars of iman. And I just want to kind of start by introducing it from from a different angle that I think we can all really relate to. I shall not be Allah on how she says in a really beautiful Hadith in Sahara Behati. A statement that she makes, she says

00:01:01--> 00:01:27

to her mouth closer to my mouth, okay, so she says if the first verses that were revealed from the Quran, were don't drink alcohol, the people would have said we're never going to stop drinking alcohol. And if the first verses that were revealed from the Quran were don't commit fornication and adultery that people would have spawned to saying we're never going to stop. But she says the first verses that were revealed were closer so yeah, okay. The first verses that were revealed were

00:01:29--> 00:02:11

chapters from or sought from an Mufasa which is like the last seventh of the Quran speaking about Jana and not until the hearts became attached to their Lord, and then the halal and haram was revealed. So what she's describing is this Quranic ability or the Quranic methodology of creating change, a lot of us go through, and we know people who can't give up particular sins and we assume that it's just a matter of them not knowing that something is held up. But if you go and you interview people, your average Muslim they know drinking alcohol is haram. They know that dating is haram they know these types of things, but what they need and what we need is to be reminded of the

00:02:11--> 00:02:25

Hereafter to be reminded of Paradise and the hellfire and so Jolliff Allah today, we're going to be increasing our your mind by reflecting on the abode of Delights paradise and sha Allah Tala. So I just wanted to begin with that shift. What did you teach a course on this topic?

00:02:27--> 00:02:32

Forever draining between paradise and hellfire. So what are your initial thoughts on this topic?

00:02:34--> 00:02:41

I think when I think of Jana want to link that I always asked myself, How much I really believe in Jenna,

00:02:43--> 00:02:46

in how much my heart is attached to dinner.

00:02:48--> 00:03:31

And I think that's a key point is not about really how much detail information as much as about how much really your heart is attached to Paradise, how much you think about it, you know, and what's interesting there is so many things in our religion always connect us with gender. Always connect us with paradise. That's why that he words is also mentioned in the Quran. So many times every verse every page in the Quran, I guarantee you there is some kind of link to paradise or the Hereafter you will find it. So I think as an initial thought one of the thing that I hope that we can establish through this is for your heart to be always thinking about gender. So when you see something so

00:03:31--> 00:03:49

beautiful, it reminds you of gender. I will never forget I was in Canada, and a boat with a group of people in a lake in the middle of Lake one of the most beautiful serenity places I've ever been in my place I've ever been in my life. It was

00:03:52--> 00:03:54

a Lake Louise if you know what that is.

00:03:55--> 00:03:56

So

00:03:58--> 00:04:18

while I'm there, we print the Hello NASA hummed a lot earlier and Canada that time the days very long. Okay, so there was a lot of time ahead of us. So when I was sitting there with these guys who invited me just relaxing just not I forgot that I'm from Houston

00:04:19--> 00:04:27

I forgot that I'm married. I forgot that I have kids. I forgot that for a skit a few seconds I was completely

00:04:28--> 00:04:52

enjoying the moment there is no Salah there is no care about the Lord salah or anything is gonna come. I'm just relaxing no bills, no teaching nothing. Believe me these few seconds few moments. Okay, was so powerful that I can't even describe how much I appreciate it.

00:04:53--> 00:04:59

I'm not worried about anything. Then I said to the guys with me. And the beautiful, beautiful one.

00:05:00--> 00:05:12

Other the beautiful mountains and water and, you know, there's only thing was missing that day beautiful food and you know, and I said to them that time Can you guys imagine to live like this forever?

00:05:15--> 00:05:18

Can you imagine to live forever like this?

00:05:20--> 00:05:26

But the point is, at that moment, I was so happy that my mind took me to Jannah.

00:05:28--> 00:05:35

And I hope that this is something you guys start thinking about any look what's in the dunya can connect you to the agenda.

00:05:37--> 00:05:55

And that's a beautiful concept to connect yourself to the hereafter to the afro era. You know, when you enjoy some food, think about the food of dinner, when you enjoy some company, think about the company of gender, and so forth. For me, this is one of the most powerful point in regard to believing in Jana.

00:05:58--> 00:06:01

hamdu lillah wa salatu salam O Allah, I'm about.

00:06:02--> 00:06:52

So you know, Jana makes you realize that love is a very, very powerful emotion. Extremely powerful. It transcends time it transcends this world. Because even after we leave this world, and this world is destroyed, in a Jana, we're going to want things similar to things of this earth. Even though the point wasn't this earth, the whole point was for us to prepare for our final homes for eternal homes. So you think Earth was just like a passing station or something. But even after people making agenda, they desire things from the things of this world. And so some people will desire to go to the market and there's a market in Ghana, and people will go there and they'll come back more

00:06:52--> 00:07:37

beautiful and and all that but like the market in Ghana, if you want to get like technical doesn't make sense as far as nobody's buying and selling and profiting but we still love the market. There's the Hadith the man who loves farming, so he's gonna want to farm in a Jana and people will have riding animals things similar to this world. So we'll choose even children absolutely. And if people will desire children in Elgin like you and your wife will be in Janome let's have kids sure. And then the kids you know there's no trimester no throwing up and no nothing like no labor just they come up to handsome Father Who are you like that? But the but the point is that look at when you're

00:07:37--> 00:08:05

in Jannah you're still attached to love that was from another world. And you're still rewarded with things from that world. And then the real example you're not really looking forward to your grapes or the houses of gold, you're not looking forward to seeing the servants. Like I guarantee everyone in this room even if you're thinking of the wrong thing, when I remind you of this one thing you're gonna say yes, that's the number one thing I'm looking forward to. And that is

00:08:07--> 00:08:08

seeing the profits awesome.

00:08:10--> 00:08:34

I mean, look at the power of machines not what everyone's thinking of what level No not me. Really. By okay, I thought everyone's on the same boat as I just think that I'll be my biggest will be seeing Allah subhanaw taala that's just me Come on. You know what I'm talking about chef you know that didn't mean that included of course that's out

00:08:35--> 00:08:36

Oh, hey, yeah, boy.

00:08:38--> 00:08:42

Okay, let's do clever that's what's that's what's happening. But really,

00:08:45--> 00:09:04

of all the things you want to see an agenda and you don't mean Allah azza wa jal of course you know, you you don't care about the house you care about seeing the process. That's like the greatest thing there. And it's just amazing how your love of someone transcends into in takes precedence over the love of everything else.

00:09:05--> 00:09:43

Anyways, that kind of destroyed my my point Yeah, holy, but I thought like, that's what everybody cared about the most is like, look at love. You want to see the prophets of Silla. You want to see Abubaker you want to see your own model. You want to meet Omer Salama, you want to see Khadija Villa and you want to meet Musa alayhis salam, Ibrahim Ali Salam, and then I think is one of the coolest things in a Jana, you want to watch the battle of budder on the big screen. Or maybe you can be in it. I don't know. But you want to watch the battle of budder you want to watch the moment when Jabril came in the cave and squeezed in the prophets Allah sent them and said Accra and you want I

00:09:43--> 00:09:52

mean, come on these. So I always think about that's the stuff that I'm excited about. And all of them have to do with love.

00:09:53--> 00:09:58

Anyways, that's my opening which was somehow destroyed the sale and now you're good. You're

00:09:59--> 00:09:59

so sure how

00:10:00--> 00:10:02

Oh how spacious How big is gender?

00:10:06--> 00:10:09

Allah subhanaw taala said was Sadio

00:10:11--> 00:10:13

agenda in Ottawa this summer what you want.

00:10:15--> 00:10:22

The width of it is like the width of the heavens and earth, and heavens and earth, it means the universe

00:10:23--> 00:10:25

can imagine the universe.

00:10:27--> 00:10:31

You know, and you take the whole entire universe.

00:10:32--> 00:10:47

One of the interpretation for this, it's like the tailor would he bring a garment and he put it that he put another garment next to it, then he sold them together, he connect them together, then a third one and a fourth one. That's the width of it.

00:10:50--> 00:10:52

Just give you a perspective.

00:10:54--> 00:10:58

In Nabi SallAllahu. sallam said the example of the example of

00:10:59--> 00:11:01

ALLAH SubhanA data is courtesy

00:11:02--> 00:11:03

and courtesy

00:11:05--> 00:11:21

comparing to the size of this earth is like a ring that you threw in the desert. We are the ring and Allah has Chrissy, Chrissy the footstool, okay? And the Kersey is the desert.

00:11:22--> 00:11:45

Can imagine the comparison between our size and the curse? Then the comparison between the courtesy the footstool and the Throne of Allah is like the comparison between a shield like the warrior shield and it a coin you stick at it a coin. So I'll Kersey represent the coin and the shield represent the Throne

00:11:47--> 00:11:56

of Allah and Allah above that, that throne that throne is like a DOM in front in the tub of Jana

00:11:57--> 00:12:05

is like the ceiling of gin Allah's throne is like a dam like this and then there is a solemn pointed with his hand like this

00:12:07--> 00:12:10

you can you imagine how big the agenda is?

00:12:12--> 00:12:21

In it a tree a tree the shade of the tree you will travel for 600 years and you will not cross it

00:12:23--> 00:12:24

from how big that tree is

00:12:25--> 00:12:47

in the beasts of Salem set the people agenda yeah Tara own kumbaya Tara Alka Drea you will look at the person above you or someone in next level. And he so far like the way you see the far star in the sky, how many millions in your fears you travel from here to see some of the stars that you see in the sky today.

00:12:48--> 00:12:59

So she has this for perspective, like I live in an apartment the guy above me I always hear his footsteps and I hear him like banging and stuff like that. So you're seeing the above is like the star is far as the star

00:13:00--> 00:13:04

is huge. Huge unbelievable.

00:13:06--> 00:13:28

And one of the beautiful things about this like you know Texas was so blessed with a Texas bag you know and that's why people of Texas have different attitudes a little bit than many other states because you live and lit to live there is so many space it's not like crumble over each other in New Jersey or New York here now so here living like to live a very spacious place

00:13:29--> 00:13:38

can imagine gender like that so big so far. And don't worry about transportation or moving or going around this palette it just it just

00:13:39--> 00:13:44

everything is easy and it was made easy for you

00:13:47--> 00:13:56

that description that's the size of L Jana or everyone's personal Jana Elgin the whole entire product.

00:13:57--> 00:14:37

You know, shift your thinking, you mentioned this notion of connecting your experiences to Jana. And so for me whenever I think of the verse was if I live in a Takotsubo mutagenicity Sumatra had they died yeah Ooh HA HA HA HA part of the horizontal Hassan when it comes to in fact hula fighting ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada describes people entering into gender in groups and so when they enter it, the angels are waiting for them and the angels say to them sit down when they come Peace be upon you live to them for to fit in, you become purified, so enter into genuine eternally. So I had an experience that's not similar to this at all, but it just reminds me of it is that one time I went

00:14:37--> 00:14:59

to a hotel and it ended up being a really really nice hotel and I'll never forget the area too is Buckhead in Atlanta. This is really nice area. And so when I got out of the car, the valet there he asked me what my name was. And so I asked I told him I said my name is Mark Shoukry us like welcome Mr. Sugary cool. So that as I'm walking into

00:15:00--> 00:15:15

The lobby the guy before I say anything he's like, welcome, Mr. Sugary like how'd you know my name. And then as I'm going to the elevators are like Welcome, Mr sugary. And I'm just like I'm being ushered in by all of these people. Obviously the guy had a headpiece later on.

00:15:16--> 00:15:42

And then as I'm walking again, he's just let everybody know what my name was, but I was like, I still remember that experience. Like I've never forgotten it. I just felt so welcomed. And so you can imagine when you're entering into Jannah, and you're just being welcomed by these angels, but I'm just staying there for the night. At the end of the day, I have to leave but the angels the first thing they're telling you is that this is you got permanent residency, you're not leaving a total fit. And also the bill is gonna ruin the whole experience. You're gonna ruin it and everything

00:15:47--> 00:15:55

it's Palace, Montana said we'll see your car lady in a taco Rob boom, eel, genitive zumo.

00:15:57--> 00:16:02

They come to agenda and groups. You don't enter agenda individually.

00:16:03--> 00:16:14

Some of the LMS said because in order for you to go to Jana, you need also to work in groups. You need to be your family, your friends, are good people.

00:16:16--> 00:16:24

Because a lot of my said the reason is, is give you a hint. That in order for you to be righteous, you need to surround yourself with good people.

00:16:25--> 00:16:31

The same group so one of the things that I asked you those who you hang out with in the night

00:16:32--> 00:16:34

or the city taking you to gender

00:16:36--> 00:16:40

those who you spend most of your time with your family

00:16:41--> 00:16:48

are those people who are doing an encouraging and guiding you and offering you the thing that will lead to gender?

00:16:49--> 00:16:56

If the answer is yes, those the people that you hold into the company the most because you will be in their company and the Day of Judgment

00:17:00--> 00:17:02

had either

00:17:04--> 00:17:06

were 40 had a boo boo

00:17:07--> 00:17:28

and when they arrive the doors will be open later because they arrive the process alone will give the first the person knock on the door then it will be said who's Mohammed systems that this is Mohammed Then the angel said for you we've been opened then after that what happened when the process Allah asked the permission for people to enter agenda.

00:17:29--> 00:17:38

What happened to the to the to the gates have done Allah Sandra said Jen to either name. The Hata low we'll go

00:17:40--> 00:17:42

more techie Nephi

00:17:44--> 00:17:54

whenever he had the fact he had been cathedra the fact he hedging Cathy allottee you show all

00:17:55--> 00:17:57

the doors are wide open agenda.

00:17:59--> 00:18:00

The doors are wide open.

00:18:03--> 00:18:08

Am Rahim Allah says the doors are wide open in every place in Jannah. Why?

00:18:09--> 00:18:40

Because you don't need to worry about thief. You don't need to worry about someone breaking in. You don't need to worry about someone sneaking and looking at you inside or out or anything like that. You don't need to worry about anything. It's so safe. It's so peaceful. Also, when the doors are wide open, you can see what's outside your room. What's outside your house. So he enjoys everything outside. And even people enjoy what's inside.

00:18:41--> 00:18:50

So it's so different than the nature of it. And MUFA Taha yeah and he widely open

00:18:51--> 00:18:54

pot in the beasts of Solomon This is one of my favorite Hadith about Jana.

00:18:55--> 00:19:16

In Albania Maasai by Belgian camera been immeasurably. Well, Margaret, if you open the door of gate to paradise wide open one of the gates. It is as big and as wide as what is the horizon between the East and the West? The rest is the best part of the habit. I know we're in the hula

00:19:18--> 00:19:19

when nursery activity

00:19:21--> 00:19:27

there is a day will come where people entering from that door and it is jam traffic.

00:19:29--> 00:19:31

Yeah, and there's so many people shoulder to shoulder.

00:19:33--> 00:19:36

La ilaha illAllah. May Allah Allah make us among them.

00:19:38--> 00:19:59

So you imagine that moment that you walk in and just the door is so wide but people still rubbing shoulders coming in. Now you have to find your place. And the salam indicated that you will recognize your house in a Jannah and you will know the way to it better than you know the way to your house here on earth. You know

00:20:00--> 00:20:37

And when you get close to your neighborhood, you know everything you know that parked car, that tree that curve on the sidewalk, that bump in the road, even when you're on the highway, like the exits near your house, they get very, very familiar and you just without thinking you can just naturally steer your way or you can just cruise straight to your heart your doorstep. So in a Jana if Allah and that's why some scholars categorize this as the fourth type of guidance of the last time you need guidance to find your house and agenda. Because you have otherwise you need all eternity the opening door after door or the door or is the open this might not know sorry, this might lead

00:20:37--> 00:21:08

Solomonic but you go straight to it. And and it's amazing. You just I just imagined the things going through people's heads at that moment and because your main concern is just making it into Jana, you're worried about yourself. You never thought to ask about where's my mom? Where's my dad and my son my daughter My wife just let me get in there. And then you reignite and that's just such an amazing moment just anyways Shamar how many gates did in the house? eight

00:21:10--> 00:21:10

eight gates.

00:21:11--> 00:21:27

Yes. Final answer. Oh no, just not as AP Can you tell us a little bit about the gates what all why there is eight What is it like? I don't know why they're eight to be honest. I have no idea why they're eight but I know that the province of a lot is headed up.

00:21:28--> 00:21:34

He mentioned a number of actions that people people will be able to enter because of

00:21:36--> 00:22:03

OR gates are named after different actions or represent different actions and one of them of course is that a yawn which the people who fast will enter through and I will walk along the line who is of those who will enter through all eight gates or will be asked will be called to be entered through all eight gates yeah but yeah well there is there is a debate over is gender has eight gates or not that's not an agreed upon about among

00:22:05--> 00:22:53

the said yes and Abby solemn said very sorry Misato sai Hain in Neville Jannetty Theremin Yetta abou up in Jana there is eight gates but you see in Jana there is eight gates it doesn't mean they are limited to eight but you just said the gates to enter in Jana there is Yeah, eight eight gates access to tender but it doesn't the Hadith doesn't say only eight gates or agenda has only eight gates in it there is a gate. So the scholars looked at the Hadith that mentioned the gates of paradise. So some scholars looked at any heading said again to paradise. So, we know the famous Hadith say if you have had the the moral of the line that Shamar just talked about when Abu Bakr it

00:22:53--> 00:23:40

mentioned there is a gate for Al Jihad those who offered Jihad and the gate for those who Salah and a gate for sadaqa and a gate for fasting Orion. So those are four what other gates mentioned what other deeds were mentioned that there is a gate named after these good deeds. Elon Musk said there is so many good deeds. So that means has to be so many gates they said some of them so many after each one of these good deeds, you know mean good deeds that is a gate for it. So if you're among the people who smile a lot help people a lot there will be a gate for you to go from. So, they start looking at the Hadith that is specifically mentioned and even had on others mentioned that the the

00:23:40--> 00:24:01

16 gates were mentioned in the ahaadeeth 16 different gates 161616 Yes. So but to be honest with you not all these ahaadeeth are authentic, okay. And the number one number two, not because the person said for example, there is a Hadith said there is a gate for

00:24:03--> 00:24:09

those who say La hawla wala Quwata illa biLlah Allah, there is a gate for for example,

00:24:11--> 00:24:24

Baron holidayme also attended the middle gate of paradise for those are beautiful and good to their parents, okay, and so many things like that. So some enema said when you find this I had had one for a token

00:24:25--> 00:25:00

for say that he said for Animoto Killeen, they have a gate for Jana will be called a vicar will be called from a gate. So the elements of it might be the same gate have multiple reasons. Yanni it's the gate for vicar, the gate for Salah and the gate for jihad is just one gate but have multiple so people go all the people have solid come first and the people have degree but from the same gate. The only difference will be Orion. Only for those smooth, fast alot and perfect They're fast.

00:25:00--> 00:25:23

Ramadan, when the enter from this gate, the gate will be closed. No one else can enter from it versus the other gates give you an indication that people can come from. So there is a debate, some said limited to eight, some people said more than eight, you know, but I just want you to be aware of it, it doesn't really matter. We'll figure it out shall only go to general

00:25:25--> 00:26:16

questions about the gates? So the gate is your entrance into a Jana? Or could it be that they are just like archways that are an honor to go through it once you're already engine? There are also other gates just like there will be. Yeah, why didn't seem to be? No, it is. It is a gates that has locked door closed. That's why the knock on it, it will be open for him than the rest of the gates will be open. We don't know the details. If there's other more gates to each level on Jana or not, we don't really know, Allah knows best. So about the people who enter into paradise. I never forgot that when I was like 15 years old, I watched a interview of a famous actor. And he lived in Texas.

00:26:17--> 00:26:29

And he was talking about his Texas ranch. And he said, my ranch in Texas. And this blew my mind. I never forgot. He said my ranch is four times the size of the island of Manhattan.

00:26:30--> 00:27:06

And I was like Allah hug but I can't believe this guy has that much lent four times the size of the island and had this was elder How big is Texas? So could you imagine if a person has that type of a property. But imagine if a person had Texas as a property, like this was their property they own Texas, like how insanely wealthy will give this person B and then expand that imagine a person had the United States of America and then expand that a person had North America and he had that beautiful place that shed what he was talking about in Canada, or South America right and you just keep expanding the last person to enter Jannah the province level of whiteness, and then tells us

00:27:06--> 00:27:35

about this individual, the last person to enter gender. This person has been in the Hellfire for however long we've been slow, the lowest level and gender. And so it's a long, beautiful Hadith. But in conclusion, when this person enters into Jana, oh, he actually rather he finds gender to be full. And he's hearing the the party people laughter and the celebration and all of that. And so he's asking Allah Subhana Allah and Allah gives him and says, Would you be pleased? If I were to give you it is equal to the earth,

00:27:36--> 00:28:18

the entire Earth. That's all of the beautiful places in earth. It's Spain, it's the Maldives, it's Sudan. It's all of these places that you heard about. Imagine you had all of that. And then, and it's equivalent, and it's equivalent, and it's equivalent up till 10 times than the 10 times. This is the last person to enter then, and then the man himself can't believe it. He says, oh, Allah, are you are you like, are you? Are you mocking? Are you mocking me and You are the Lord of the words? Are you mocking me? I can't believe it. Right? But this is the last person so then what about sha Allah, all of us who enter way, way, way, way before that?

00:28:23--> 00:28:25

Subhan Allah Musa alayhis salam when he heard this hadith,

00:28:27--> 00:28:42

Prophet Musa when he heard that from Allah, that this is the lowest level agenda. Musa asked the question, the same question that I had in my head when I read the Hadith. And I'm sure you guys have the same question. If this is the lowest what's the highest?

00:28:44--> 00:28:50

He said, This is the lowest What about the highest? Then Allah Swatara said those orange Ginetta hadn't

00:28:52--> 00:28:53

This is on the top.

00:28:54--> 00:29:03

Us This is the top top those in the place and things never seen. Never heard of before.

00:29:04--> 00:29:08

What it means never heard never seen before. Never thought of before.

00:29:10--> 00:29:21

What that means, it means you Annie, even if I tell you what's in it, it will not make sense to you. Why? Because you didn't know what that means. If I tell you in Jannah that a sham balloon

00:29:23--> 00:29:29

Oh my God shut on balloon you will eat schamber All the whole day long sham balloon.

00:29:30--> 00:29:31

What's shown below.

00:29:33--> 00:29:59

Makes no sense to you because he never seen Chambal before you didn't know what Chambolle is. There is nothing similar to I never thought of it. You know, it just killed a random word. So exactly. That's how it's gonna sound if you start describing what's in Janna for you. Because something you never seen you never imagined. When this movie Avatar came, I was teaching the course somebody showed me some scene from the movie Avatar and it's just

00:30:00--> 00:30:02

then that will be like that I said no way more than that.

00:30:03--> 00:30:17

That's the imaginary imagination of the director and the people who made the movie and it was very fascinating actually. But can you imagine this is something beyond even any humans imagination?

00:30:20--> 00:30:20

Like

00:30:22--> 00:30:25

any one of the thing that really touched my heart

00:30:27--> 00:30:27

is power like

00:30:32--> 00:30:35

I sometimes it said like, do we really deserve that?

00:30:37--> 00:30:42

That Allah subhanaw taala criticality, horror story rasa bat

00:30:44--> 00:30:46

I planted

00:30:47--> 00:30:51

the trees of paradise with my own hand for you

00:30:57--> 00:30:58

I neither to Allah

00:31:00--> 00:31:01

that Allah subhanaw taala

00:31:02--> 00:31:04

he made this for you

00:31:06--> 00:31:30

will lie when I go to one somebody's house and he told me I cook the food for you purple my hand or somebody like start serving me or you know preparing the house mashallah very nice. I feel so special I feel like and it's just a human being. And if that person is older than me or somebody I respect or a chef to me, or I will be like out of my I will be flying

00:31:31--> 00:31:33

key for anyone out there who are blood I mean,

00:31:34--> 00:31:38

can you imagine this Allah Himself preparing this for you?

00:31:39--> 00:31:41

That's so much honor.

00:31:43--> 00:31:46

It just be that's enough for you to say

00:31:50--> 00:31:52

and also the choose the nature of this Lord.

00:31:54--> 00:31:56

How easy is to be pleased?

00:31:57--> 00:31:59

How loving Lord, he is.

00:32:01--> 00:32:08

No one of us deserve that. That's why no one deserves gender for their deeds. It is because of Allah's mercy.

00:32:10--> 00:32:13

But think about that think about how Allah Subhan Allah make this for you

00:32:15--> 00:32:15

yes

00:32:29--> 00:32:30

you enter only from one gate

00:32:32--> 00:32:42

but you can be given the choice because the rule was like this if you intergender you never leave that in. If you walk in you never the question why Abu Bakr asked for the eighth gate.

00:32:44--> 00:32:59

Any organ is not going to be cut eight pieces. Each piece goes from one gate. That's right, his head one gate is he's gonna enter the wrong gate. So why would he ask that? Is jasola Someone will be caught from the end gates of paradise.

00:33:02--> 00:33:03

Anybody else?

00:33:04--> 00:33:05

What do you think?

00:33:07--> 00:33:09

What would he ask that for?

00:33:13--> 00:33:17

I would imagine it'll be the having the honor of.

00:33:19--> 00:33:23

of, eh, you been called from every game? The honor beautiful.

00:33:25--> 00:33:31

It's like, it's like you get to choose your own like, it makes it seem like you get to choose your own game.

00:33:32--> 00:33:45

You want to make the choice? It's not like I go from here. No, no, I want to enter from whatever gate I want to go. That's that's that's aiming so high.

00:33:47--> 00:33:50

That's aiming so I want to make the choice

00:33:52--> 00:34:11

versus us today. If I tell you how to go to Jana, you say Shahar I don't care shall throw me from the window I'm gonna slide me from underneath the door. You know, just throw me from the window. I'm happy. No, no, I will buckle he doesn't aim that he doesn't very high. He said I want to make the choice.

00:34:14--> 00:34:15

What's the difference?

00:34:17--> 00:34:19

How about something about the houses of a gin?

00:34:21--> 00:34:25

House we went in through the door. Let's find the places right.

00:34:29--> 00:34:31

So where do we start?

00:34:35--> 00:34:58

Look at the sizes of the houses of agenda I mean built of gold or pearls, or silver. Now, the scholar said so Allah subhanaw taala will describe the bracelets of silver for example. So they said first of all, when Allah subhanaw taala describes bracelets of silver it doesn't mean that that's the only thing available because in other parts of the Quran

00:35:00--> 00:35:43

Allah mentions bracelets of gold, but they said the silver over the Jannah and someone might say that silver is not that expensive. So why is Allah describing silver gold is a big deal platinum, a Silver, who cares. So they said the silver of Elgin is not like any other silver. And they said if you in the Hadith and the BISAZZA mentioned that you will have your writing animal and you will tap it with this stick. He said just the stick that you tap your animal with is better than the whole world and everything in it. So that's a stick which is typically like a wooden item or something. So if the stick is better than the world and everything in it, what do you think of the silver of

00:35:43--> 00:36:28

agenda so silver and gold and pearls and musk and rivers and houses that are huge that when and servants and when you want to drink you would just like press the ground like this and there's a spring and this spring continues like because they're the resources are unlimited in agenda. Like no matter how rich you are on earth, you don't have a hot shower running all the time, in case you decide to step under it or not. The resources are limited and still costly. But in a jitna you press and the spring comes out and you drink a little from it and you leave it because the house is huge it will never flood and they said that the spring itself once it shows up it beautifies the house it

00:36:28--> 00:36:56

makes it more beautiful it's like adding a fountain somewhere. So every time you drink the place gets more beautiful and every time you need a drink the drink is right there because Allah subhanaw taala described the servants like scattered pearls and scattered because they're everywhere so you don't have to like you know clap ring a bell and when and Ola dead where are these boys? And you wait then he finally comes yeah come see you get me the thing that he goes about to get it you still waiting.

00:36:58--> 00:37:40

And then I also love that you drink just out of sheer enjoyment. And Allah described the drink itself a Doha Khedira that is measured perfectly for you. Some scholars said the amount is perfect. Because you know sometimes you drink and you've got a little left and because of this bad habit of you know finish your food finisher, your drink and all that you've got a little bit left and now you're full but you're just forcing yourself I'm wasting money. Go go go and then now you guys shouldn't have done that and you hate life and you can't move it. The amount was too much. And sometimes you get a drink and you use need that few more sips to possible right you just need a few

00:37:40--> 00:38:02

more sips it wasn't enough it was good but it was just too little but here it measured perfectly. That's one to say the other turf says that it's made to the way you like it it's not too sweet it's not too cold it's the way you perfectly would like and sometimes people offer you tea too much sugar too warm to hot it's going to be perfect

00:38:04--> 00:38:04

yes sir

00:38:24--> 00:38:26

something and it wouldn't be there and it was

00:38:28--> 00:38:28

just

00:38:30--> 00:38:33

so you could like go to the exact thing you

00:38:35--> 00:38:37

want to go without

00:38:43--> 00:38:52

so I heard there's some driving involved in how fast you can go with the speed though so if I'm understanding you correctly, you said everything will be immediate right

00:38:58--> 00:38:59

yes

00:39:03--> 00:39:03

yep

00:39:09--> 00:39:10

Exactly.

00:39:12--> 00:39:20

With everything that you want, it'll be perfectly how you want it. The settings are always just how you want it Sharla Escada

00:39:25--> 00:39:26

you're On what planet?

00:39:30--> 00:39:30

Your own world

00:39:32--> 00:39:58

isn't it that people will will only desire things that are that are good and pure and reasonable. Yeah, because they are good and pure reasonable. Yeah, there's no evilness so so nobody from gender for example, will wish haram or bad things on a kill people. Yeah, like a serial killer made Toba. His agenda is like I want to strangle somebody that just gets through because there is no evilness on people. Yeah, so

00:39:59--> 00:39:59

you

00:40:01--> 00:40:03

Speaking of the doors of Jana

00:40:04--> 00:40:07

you know as Pamela and W M

00:40:09--> 00:40:50

min che Enzo Jane tilaka to hijab battle Genetti and ruinart Colonia drew who and yet Holloman Endo, anyone spent twice from the same thing to end the day of judgment that Jana, when he approached paradise, every angel will tell come into from this gate. So in other word, he have access to all gates, but it is an Abu Bakr is not the only one will be called from the eight gates, there is other people too. And another thing that make you do that eligible for that is to give twice from the test. Same thing, what that means, for example, I'm in a fundraising. You know, I donated $100, then I donate another $100

00:40:53--> 00:40:55

Okay, I give food than I give another food,

00:40:57--> 00:41:36

munificence shake, no same thing you do twice in the same time. Somebody poor came to me and I gave him $1 That I said, You know what, I'm going to make them too. I double it. That person will be will be getting that honor. But genuinely like that. Yeah, meaning you gave $1 Then you genuinely thought, you know, let me give you another motion. No, you give them 50 cents, and you plan to give them $1. And like, come back. Here's another 50 cents. I just took a loss by that. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Yeah, sure. But why because it is hard to beat the ship and wants to beat him twice. And he'd be in the habit of beating the shape on several times. That shows that you will be a good

00:41:36--> 00:41:48

person, a person who can draw and there is many a hadith by the way, speaking about other ways to intergender from any gates that you wish many. Some of them are something as simple as

00:41:49--> 00:42:22

waste to enter into agenda. No gates agenda to be called from the Engage agenda of them is that you when you make will do that a person perfects their will do and then they say after completing their shadow dialect Hola. Hola. Hola. Hola. Hum. While Aquila Shane Kadir, all of the eight gates of paradise are open for this person. So something as simple as perfecting your robot and making that statement afterwards. Ya know what I know I should not lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie lie. Don't actually you cannot wash I don't know Muhammad Abdul rasool Allah maganda minutolo Beauty Gentlemen, gentlemen, join with Toby

00:42:24--> 00:42:42

Fuji Hello, Baba Jonathan thin area, the eight gauge progress will be overheard. Also those who lost children and their patient, and there is a solemn told a man, we lost a son. He said, if you wish, and you'll be patient, you will see your son in the Day of Judgment, taking your hand to enter from any gate you want.

00:42:43--> 00:42:45

You just reminded me shift with

00:42:46--> 00:43:25

the losing children. I remember once, even with a woman losing her husband, I remember once a sister had asked us a lot about she was basically saying like, I'm a widower. And I've got children and I'm raising them. And it's super hard for me, not a widower, she's a widow. She said it's super hard for me like can you tell me something? And so he said, there's a hadith of Ebola that's controversial and its authenticity. But the province of Elijah said when he's arriving at the gates of paradise, there's a woman who, like almost there with him. And so he says to her, who are you? And then she says, I'm a woman who was a widow, and I raised my children. I took care of my children, I raised my

00:43:25--> 00:43:41

children. So it shows this incredible high status of the one who takes care of their children in that difficulty. Oh, I have an important question. Someone asked this question some months ago. Was sister said, will the woman wear hijab in agenda? No, no hijab and Jenna good for you guys.

00:43:43--> 00:43:56

But what if a man doesn't want his wife to be doing the shampoo commercial in front of everyone else in the gym? He will not because that kind of was because nobody will look at any sister. Why there is hijab and dunya to protect them.

00:43:57--> 00:44:14

In agenda there is no need for protection. You no there's there's no bad desire. There is no crossing the line. There is no buddy. You know everybody. That's why I settled the Allah on her. She was with a group of Muslim woman and they saw some non Muslim woman

00:44:15--> 00:44:29

dazzling and showing their beauties and stuff like that. Then I said, she said something Soviet. That's what I'm talking about. Connect your hearts agenda to maternal behavior in the hula confit de Kooning dunya, Alana phylloxera.

00:44:30--> 00:44:48

Enjoy yourself, like showing off and showing your beauty in dunya. For us, we'll do that in the IRA. So she was sending a message to the young woman with her, the young girl with her because I know it's hard. I know it's hard for young girls to put a job.

00:44:50--> 00:44:58

It's not easy. Every every girl wants to show her beauty. So I actually said don't worry, you enjoy it now. We'll enjoy it and the girl

00:45:00--> 00:45:02

Wow, no hijab at that point

00:45:03--> 00:45:12

is it is it just the hood of them that were the female prophets I saw them said that the model commodity the hijab, commodities like a shawl like some dedicada

00:45:13--> 00:45:56

just like something you put a like a scarf like you know, these expensive scarf, you put it just so it's a fashion statement. It's a fashion thing. But just let's say motivation is powerful. Because today our young girls need they see other girls jumping up and down on night and day on Tiktok homes jumping up on people just jumping. And then the instead of knee feeling in that, that attitude of Isla de la Anna, they feel like I need to jump a bottle, jump a little bit tomorrow, jump higher, and they start to want to emulate and I remember one time it's just a sign of defeat. There was a there was a hotel where there was an Islamic conference and also some non Muslim wedding same hotel

00:45:56--> 00:45:57

for Gabon, people are bound to meet

00:45:59--> 00:46:26

those guys from the wedding. They brought a dancer I'm not gonna describe any outfits that was changing in the bathroom with the hijab, the sisters were there from the conference, and they all started telling her You look amazing, you look beautiful. And then she says you can't dress like this can you? And instead of telling her something strong like that, the old tried to show her that we're just like you and we can do it yes we're allowed by in our religion which religion is we're just so weak.

00:46:27--> 00:46:28

We don't know that our

00:46:30--> 00:46:39

you know, barely clothed, no Dawa to her just feeling beneath such people who just jumping up and down it's such a defeated the speaking of defeated

00:46:42--> 00:47:25

one of to me one of the proofs of prophethood of the province I said when I when I is when he describes Jannah it's like either this man is the most amazing political figure or military figure theologian and at the same time happens to have the most creative mind in the world. For this person to describe some of it I set it up like the trees of Jannah that they're that they're their bases their trunks are of gold and all of these beautiful like how does he knows that Elijah set it up that that a tree shining in and of itself is something beautiful? Like in the wintertime now we're in the Christmas Jenna that's where your clothes come from it the fruit that one of the trees and

00:47:25--> 00:47:30

Jana you go and the cloth come from it you take it or tell bossa nova

00:47:31--> 00:48:02

Thea Jana minha it's amazing. So I can imagine that. So now people I mean, we people love the lights right on trees in the holiday season and it's so beautiful and you want to walk down the streets and people are even getting Christmas trees right that defeated mentality that you're getting because it's like, oh, it's just we love the land of the lights on the trees and stuff like that. But to me the description that the province little light is and it gives in and of itself is is just it's a proof of his profit. So a lot it's a lot so you know,

00:48:04--> 00:48:22

even when he describes it as a mantra he says that it's its colors that I can't describe now like how does he How does he know like this is a psychological thing shift Come on, like this notion of you can't invent a new color. You can't you can't imagine a new color. And when the prophesy centum is describing all of these aspects, it's just unbelievable.

00:48:24--> 00:48:27

Combining all these things together, it's absolutely

00:48:29--> 00:48:35

an agenda levels. So check them out. I have a question for you. You'd like interesting questions.

00:48:36--> 00:48:40

In there be salatu salam said indifferent Genetti Miata da Raja

00:48:41--> 00:48:42

100 levels.

00:48:43--> 00:48:51

But yet inhibition Salam said when you walk to the masjid for each step you take to the masjid Allah raise you one level and Jenna

00:48:54--> 00:48:56

dive and I walked to the masjid more than 100

00:48:58--> 00:49:06

That's right. For each step you take to Mecca for Hajj or Umrah you have for each step one level and Jenna up

00:49:08--> 00:49:14

that's how many levels of Jenna there is H each and every step you take it to the master.

00:49:15--> 00:49:26

There is one level up and tender. That's why we miss route used to walk with baby steps, small steps, so increase the number of steps but when you hear the comma he made some big

00:49:28--> 00:49:28

white.

00:49:29--> 00:49:35

So how it's a it's 100 or it is billions

00:49:36--> 00:49:56

I'm also thinking of the hadith of Aisha Wasn't she wasn't quoting in the BISAZZA land but when she said that the number of levels of agenda is equal to the number of verses of the Quran and wherever you know that's my opinion. Nom Yeah, I actually said same thing I just said the level of Jannah is according to the number of verses in the Quran.

00:49:57--> 00:49:59

Why? Because Allah will be

00:50:00--> 00:50:22

In the day of judgment read and for each verse you memorize you go one level and genders and so those will only a koala had need to work a little bit more you know to another Surah third Surah for the every every verse you know you go one level up so I actually said based on this it will be according to the number of verses in the Quran

00:50:25--> 00:50:29

so what's the answer? How long do I have can I get till next week?

00:50:31--> 00:50:33

Anybody can know the answer heard this problem before

00:50:35--> 00:50:41

when the prophesy stem says there's 100 levels and Jen that's just like when he said they're a gates of paradise doesn't mean that there's only eight

00:50:42--> 00:50:44

Yeah, but what he means by that

00:50:45--> 00:50:51

what what that why he said it is 100 Some the Hadith actually if you know the Hadith you will might find that yes

00:50:57--> 00:51:04

very good way before I go to this, the Hadith goes like this in that it never Genetti me Raja Abdullah Al Mujahideen.

00:51:06--> 00:51:26

So there is 100 levels for the Mujahideen. So the Mujahideen is our level and 100. But that doesn't mean that everybody else has 100 to some other scholars said that actually, it's 100 levels. Okay, but these 100 levels in each level, there is so billions and billions and billions of levels.

00:51:27--> 00:51:43

Yanni let's say you go to number 10, number 10 in itself, many different levels. You deserve to go to number 10 or 11 or 12 or 100 or 60 whatever it is, in that rank. You have many billions of levels.

00:51:44--> 00:51:48

Allah subhanaw taala said I'm the cave.

00:51:49--> 00:51:58

Bom bom bom What if you were to act boulder or jet you Akbar root of

00:52:01--> 00:52:18

all you can remove me noon or help por la moonda. Raja to Noreen Dora be him. Allah Akbar, they have many levels there are so many levels, while equaling the Raja to

00:52:20--> 00:52:24

you, there is the Rajat levels based on your deeds.

00:52:25--> 00:52:30

See how people levels in this dunya and akhira also levels not the same.

00:52:31--> 00:52:37

So here something to reflect upon, that you want to raise your level and gender Howard by good deeds

00:52:40--> 00:52:44

and agenda are all as a whole is for

00:52:46--> 00:52:48

it the whole entire agenda for

00:52:49--> 00:52:57

and in these four Jenna's sections you want to say, two made of golds and two made of Silver's

00:52:58--> 00:53:13

everything in itself. So the gold is the top one, the silver is the lower lung. And these inefficient Denatonium in the habit in a tournament filled by Phil Harrington, say an individual Salah. So and among each of these so many levels.

00:53:14--> 00:53:19

So that's why the highest level Fula to mineral Awali and Rocklea luminal theory.

00:53:21--> 00:53:28

A large number of the people who will be in the top are from the early generations and few from the later generations.

00:53:31--> 00:53:47

And the one on the lower levels. A lot of that later generations and few from the early generations. That's why you should aim high, you should work hard. You remember that story of the tabby.

00:53:48--> 00:53:53

He used to hit his head like rake his legs and he said stand up and pray.

00:53:55--> 00:54:34

I love that quote, go home cinema COVID-19 He was praying in the night and he got really tired. No caffeine, no Red Bull or anything at that time. So he slapped his leg and he said I will notice how I'm hammered and yes that will be he doing he said do the Companions from homicidal lightest didn't think that they're gonna have him exclusively again. Carla Hayden is a human Nomad it helped said by Allah we are going to crowd them at the pool like the Sahaba obviously, other of Allah they got there with him and we missed out he was like No on the Day of Judgment we're going to be there. Had they? I don't know. I love woody Giada so that they know that they left behind the people who came

00:54:34--> 00:54:37

after him were after them were men as well. Yes sir

00:54:45--> 00:54:46

we go

00:54:49--> 00:54:49

to school

00:54:55--> 00:54:55

Yes,

00:54:57--> 00:54:58

peasy Yep.

00:54:59--> 00:54:59

available.

00:55:00--> 00:55:01

Yep.

00:55:05--> 00:55:07

That's a great question. People ask that question all the time.

00:55:08--> 00:55:15

Am I going to get bored in general, like you're talking about? I'm going to be there forever and ever and ever, like, do you run out of things to do? Or how does that work?

00:55:18--> 00:55:20

Allah subhanaw taala Liab Oh Nanhua

00:55:22--> 00:55:26

Allah says in the Quran, they never wish a change.

00:55:28--> 00:55:30

They will never wish change.

00:55:31--> 00:56:01

They will be so enjoying it every single moment of their life. You know, I was in New York one winter where it was so cold. They came up with this name we never heard of before, called a polar vortex. So what kind of winter is this? It was so cold. It's like 2012, I think or something like that. So then I got a flight to California. And I was like, I'm out. I went, landed in San Jose was beautiful. 70 degrees. And I go straight to the beach.

00:56:02--> 00:56:07

And I'm at the beach, and I go in a store and I need to buy something from the store. And she asked me for my driver's license.

00:56:09--> 00:56:45

So I gave her my driver's license, and it says New York on it. And she's like, you're from New York. I wish I was there right now. I was like Lady tequila. You mean you wish like we're fully there's, you're sitting here beach Sun ocean. And she was like, I just I'm so bored here like I can't stand. Like I just I need to leave California. And so that verse I remember that every time sort of Kaffir Allah subhanaw taala describes paradise and he says live guna and Hilda that's the one place it doesn't matter the more you go to the most beautiful places on earth. Again, you go to the Maldives, you go to Sudan, you go anywhere and you just will eventually get bored. You just get tired of it.

00:56:45--> 00:56:49

But Jana, you never want to relocate from Yes, sir. It's life

00:56:54--> 00:57:00

No sleeping agenda. Nobody sleeps agenda. What if you enjoy sleeping shift? Just asking for a friend. Sorry.

00:57:02--> 00:57:04

No sleeping agenda?

00:57:05--> 00:57:38

Because no, because sleeping is a form of death. And nobody died in and sleeping. Why do we sleep? Why do we sleep to recharge to recharge, you don't get tired? And then you think so? Also sleeping cut you off. I got sleep because I'm done with the day. Sometimes. I just want to go to sleep. You know? Well, you know that's in here. And yeah, I just go to sleep. Go to my dream world. You know what your dream world is reality

00:57:40--> 00:57:42

is no need for you to go to sleep.

00:57:43--> 00:57:57

Sleeping will cut you off from the enjoy. And there is no day or night right? And there is no day and night. There is no concept of day night. The concept of time does not exist in gender to that actually people understand there is a day

00:57:58--> 00:58:48

come but that's as came into some of the narration with a light shine from the underneath the Throne of Allah data. And people will know that this is the beginning of a day. That's why they still have a concept of Friday, there is a day a week, you know and Friday they go meet Allah subhanaw taala. Every Friday, once every week, the people get to meet Allah subhanaw taala. And to be there in a place it's called Anwar Dill efia. A valley that smells so good. So there is still a concept of understanding days and on time, but people don't feel it. And the time is the day because as you see in Jenna, there is no sun, there is no moon anymore. But there is light and the light of gender is

00:58:48--> 00:59:01

like the light that you experience after the sunrise like in the early early time and Fajr. Okay, that's how that light. That's how the agenda looks like. Yes, sir. In the back in the pink?

00:59:15--> 00:59:16

Very good.

00:59:17--> 00:59:34

Let's repeat the question. Yeah, he's saying what's the difference between the lower and the higher? If everybody is very satisfied in Jannah and happy in Jannah and is the best place ever? Why there is many levels that only affect you in the dunya not on the akhirah.

00:59:35--> 01:00:00

That's only for you in this life to aim high. But the moment you enter there, you're not going to feel envying the people on the higher level or you wish no, but obviously in the beginning maybe you wish you've done more but as you go on Sutherland has everybody but that's that's concept is for you

01:00:00--> 01:00:27

Now, to work hard. So you can aim high. Like, you want to be in the best you want to be into the higher level, you will see things in the higher level, you're not going to see in the lower level, you will be happy with it. But you're not going to have that things. Now you understand that you see that? You're looking forward. That's a human nature, that they're looking for something bigger and better and increasing. They're basically acids and Jana.

01:00:30--> 01:01:14

Remember the verse. So Allah subhanaw taala describes the life of the hereafter, it is bowed down, we'll hire one. And the old days is to tell one of my best friends, if you tell him this verse always reminds me of you and Nick Haiwan. And then he explained it to me when he explained it to me. So in Arabic, when you when you have to show an aesthetic record to show that it's something all the way to the fullest, or to the maximum, you add the noon. So it is life to the fullest. And that's why I lost how to how to describe it that way. Like every aspect, you get to the fullest, and there is no way you would get tired or bored of something like that. And naturally, if you think logically

01:01:14--> 01:01:45

and if you got bored of it, how would that be your reward to be bored for eternity? And maybe you have 200,000 years? How long okay, I'm bored, then. So there is no way the possibility of boredom would arise otherwise it would become a punishment. Right? I mean, even in the dunya there are things that we've never gotten bored of, like you might find a person who's like a fanatic of a movie, they watched it 1000 times they never get bored of it. They're people who experience certain things and they just over their lifetime. They've never gotten bored of it. And that's just human made things so to think what Allah created, that he's prepared for you forever that you would get

01:01:45--> 01:01:49

bored of it in and of itself as for the levels of Jannah.

01:01:50--> 01:02:03

In Nabi SallAllahu. sallam was asked by one of the companions, the Rasul Allah when I go home, and I don't see you from fajr and Malaysia, from Asia and to Voyager. I feel so like,

01:02:04--> 01:02:10

it's so hard for me for that long time to pass by without meeting you. From Asia to fetcher. I didn't see you.

01:02:12--> 01:02:13

What will happen when you go to Jana

01:02:15--> 01:02:18

and you are in very high level and we are in the lower levels.

01:02:20--> 01:02:21

How would you see

01:02:26--> 01:02:29

the interview salatu salam said a Nia Allah and fcwc Because

01:02:31--> 01:02:32

you want to raise your level and Jana

01:02:33--> 01:02:37

What do you do? Increase your sujood increase your Salah.

01:02:39--> 01:02:45

You want to raise your level on Jana? Can you guys think of things that elevate your status and gender?

01:02:46--> 01:02:47

I'm giving you Hence

01:02:50--> 01:03:16

your team the orphan? Yeah, the person said me and the one who take care of orphans like this and he joined his two fingers like that the scholars have to interpretation this like this Yanni my level and Jana is just one level ahead of him or her some said no, he's higher than him like this like the difference between the length of the two fingers.

01:03:18--> 01:03:33

You see that how high or some said no he intergender right after the Prophet SAW Salem is not with the level some scars but anyway it means that you are in a very high level very closer process Allah like that.

01:03:34--> 01:03:40

You know there is so many things like every step you walk to the message to pray Gemma raise your level and Jana

01:03:41--> 01:03:44

Subhan Allah Allah they will be Hamdi raise your level and Jana

01:03:46--> 01:03:50

so you know, it's up to you how much how you want to go

01:03:52--> 01:03:56

I mean, there's sorry for the levels of Jannah that people visit one another.

01:03:58--> 01:04:16

Like let's say you want to visit the processor Lemuria visit Omari one of his old Bekah you will visit but the way it works the lower one will be taken up to the higher one the higher one don't go down. So even if the the heroine wants to see someone they will be resin to them

01:04:17--> 01:04:45

to meet them then they go back to their status. Also those who enter Jannah in a higher level they can intercede for those in lower level to be elevated. So yeah and in mashallah your wife is a very good one imagine the only mashallah your wife go all the way up. Hi, Shad Kamal and Jana and you didn't make it. Yeah, I need to that Hi, sister, man. He's not gonna say Hey, come here. I'm gonna see she stay there, buddy.

01:04:47--> 01:04:55

No, she intercede for you to be elevated overweight to her level? Of course. How's it going to be Jen? If she doesn't have me next to her long?

01:04:57--> 01:04:59

Yes. Okay, that's it.

01:05:00--> 01:05:34

And that's why chef, you mentioned this notion of, we're going in as groups, I didn't ever thought about the law. And he said, befriend the believers as much as you can, because every believer will have an intercession. And so the idea of you want to have a higher place in Genda make sure that your friends are believers, make sure that you surround yourself with good people who will get to get done, inshallah. So I have an interesting reward an agenda. I mean, I think it's a clear reward, but it's not ever mentioned with the list of rewards. And we'll get you Allah subhanaw taala described in the Quran, someone will be setting an agenda, then he will remember a friend from this

01:05:34--> 01:06:09

dunya who used to make fun of him, you're covered up like that, do you believe in the God that this and you believe there is a life after that and, and you know, live once in Yolo, and all this nonsense trying to pull you to their side and you resist them. And then at that moment, it will open and you will see them in their place in the hellfire. And just like they used to taunt you, maybe that's not the best choice of words, but in the dunya, you will speak to them and you say, You know what, you almost made me go with you. You almost made me, you know, one of the losers. And I think that's

01:06:11--> 01:06:48

that's there's a great reward in that not that people in agenda are vindictive, or they want to see others but but I think there's also a great, great pleasure in invalidates your decisions as well. Your list of 20 people right now that will be a great pleasure to see them in that place. But we won't go through that list right now. There's so much still to mentioned in Jana. There's the food of gender we haven't talked about yet. People love taking pictures of their food in the dunya. They just love snapping and things like that. Jana, the food of Jana, Chef Kumar, you mentioned that people will never drink out of thirst, that thirst will be quenched from an Cova Correct. Yeah. So

01:06:48--> 01:06:56

on the Day of Judgment, they'll drink from an cosa and then they will never ever feel thirsty again. And so everybody and Jenna, they've quench their thirst for the aroma.

01:06:58--> 01:07:38

But every prophet will have a pool, right? Yes, every prophet will have a pool. So they'll have Muhammad sallallaahu Selim, they'll drink from a coaster and then they'll never feel thirsty again. And so everything we drink in Jeddah inshallah is going to be just pure bliss. And then you have the different rivers that Allah Subhana Allah mentions in the Quran, river of honey river of water, river of milk and river of wine. And even Ibis describes like she had mentioned that all of the negative qualities are removed in Jannah. So even my boss mentions even with wine, that it removes all of the negative qualities of wine such as intoxication, hangover, headaches, urination, all of

01:07:38--> 01:07:51

these negative qualities are removed from it. The first thing that the people have didn't know eat is before we go to the years the rivers of Jannah are very interesting. The River of Jannah lays it Lucha Hadid

01:07:52--> 01:07:59

it doesn't run in the earth, or in the ground, it runs above the ground.

01:08:00--> 01:08:04

How does that work? You can imagine the water running on the top

01:08:06--> 01:08:07

run like this

01:08:08--> 01:08:09

there's no sides

01:08:11--> 01:08:17

still with depth, the depth of the river run and you can see from the top to the bottom

01:08:19--> 01:08:34

you sit next to it on the water just running beside you next year. That's how it runs between homes between trees that's how the rivers are in Jana. So what all what you need you didn't even you just reach out and you drink from it.

01:08:35--> 01:08:37

And one of the thing is that the

01:08:38--> 01:08:50

Quran describe and the process of and describe it he said that these rivers that allows pupils pebbles, pebbles and and Jana and the end

01:08:51--> 01:09:22

and the rivers are what made of all these beautiful rubies and stones colorful ones and you know rivers are very murky you know that rivers and general murky they have so that's why people usually don't dive and rivers. Okay, why because the water is running. And it's you know, and the bottom of it is usually so the bottom of the rivers and Jenna made of what

01:09:24--> 01:09:24

musk

01:09:26--> 01:09:32

so when it's move the smell of the off the bottom of it's so beautiful.

01:09:33--> 01:09:38

It is unbelievable the way it's described. Imagine these rivers run like that.

01:09:41--> 01:09:48

Or beshear in Ludhiana wham you saw the Hertie and then

01:09:49--> 01:09:52

Teddy Tajiri mean tactical and

01:09:54--> 01:09:59

give the glutton for those who believes and do good deeds that there is God

01:10:00--> 01:10:00

ordens

01:10:01--> 01:10:04

runs and rivers rivers

01:10:08--> 01:10:17

and still the running water is one of the most beautiful thing to see the rivers running in front of you too can you imagine if it turns like in a very this unique way

01:10:20--> 01:10:20

yes sir

01:10:22--> 01:10:23

just over that

01:10:31--> 01:10:32

there will be a bridge over it

01:10:34--> 01:10:36

Are there going to be bridges over these rivers?

01:10:38--> 01:10:46

I don't know but maybe when you walk the water stop you can go the water continue after you pass you didn't have to have Yes

01:10:51--> 01:10:56

Will everybody be able to see Muhammad Salah lives every believers yes will meet the process

01:11:11--> 01:11:13

the one that you remember when you die?

01:11:14--> 01:11:37

Unless you lost your memory for Yeah, he's asking if somebody will memorize the Quran then he forgot and he which according to which he will go and Jana, he will go according to the thing that you will maintain before his death unless something tragic like had dementia or something like that. And he lost his memory. This will be different. But as a normal note what you kept with you upon your death, yes.

01:11:49--> 01:12:16

Very good. It's a great question. So would you if you're 18 When you pass away is that the age that you're going to be in Jannah people will be resurrected. The people of gender rather will be at the age of a seven Imodium at a sedan. It will be 33 years old people will be 33 years old, which is amazing. It's the peak of youth even when you look at athletes now you see that their peak performance and what have you is around 33 years old by and large any

01:12:17--> 01:12:18

Yeah.

01:12:19--> 01:12:24

Yeah, by the way, gender also has sees not only rivers and some of the Hadith.

01:12:26--> 01:12:38

I see. Some people said maybe no, it is the river but it's so big as if it looks like a sea. But some said no, it has actually seas and rivers and

01:12:39--> 01:12:42

Ryun like Wells and

01:12:43--> 01:12:44

oysters ices are like

01:12:46--> 01:12:54

like fountains of water coming. So it has many different shapes and of body of liquids.

01:12:56--> 01:13:24

There is names for unheralded Jana, we know coauthor for the believers only men from Mohammed Salim OMO drink from it, nobody else as an honor for them. But also there is another river it's called Al Badak. There is another side all this hadith, offending also I obeyed that I will be there. And that's one of the rivers that the process Allah mentioned. And all the rivers of Jinnah comes from the top of Genda

01:13:26--> 01:13:41

from the very top, from Sidra, to Montana, from this big huge tree in the top. Okay, the rivers run from underneath of that then goes down to the trickle down to all the people in Japan. Is it true that the Nile and the Euphrates Rivers of jedna

01:13:44--> 01:13:46

not only them, but also see Honan Jihoon

01:13:48--> 01:13:53

the fraud and the Nile and they'd be so solemn said they are

01:13:54--> 01:14:22

from Ghana, and there's a debate or what that means from dinner. It could be the initial start of these two rivers, where something is started from gender, okay, or they represents like these rivers will be running in the same manners in Jannah. So it was a lot of debate over this. Actually, we have to wrap up where we can't talk about gender without talking about the greatest pleasure in gender, which is seeing Allah subhana data.

01:14:25--> 01:14:34

Before that, I just want to say also that it's just there's certain things about the description of gender is very interesting to like the price of Allah Allah said they were bracelets

01:14:36--> 01:14:38

why men will wear bracelets

01:14:39--> 01:14:57

while gender talks about like clothe silk, or men and women wearing like, good clothes. Pamela it is because a lot of Muslims and a lot of people live in this dunya and they don't get chance to wear all these fancy clothes. All this jewelry and stuff.

01:14:59--> 01:14:59

And that's pretty

01:15:00--> 01:15:00

True.

01:15:01--> 01:15:04

You know, just look around look around the Muslim world

01:15:07--> 01:15:12

look at Egypt, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Malaysia, Indonesia.

01:15:13--> 01:15:23

Syria, refugee camps. Palestine, Gaza, Libya, Morocco. Look at all the Muslim world today.

01:15:25--> 01:15:28

Your alarms and community members are are poor.

01:15:30--> 01:15:39

Just now, can you imagine 100 years ago, 200 years ago, 500 years ago, Musa Musa will

01:15:40--> 01:15:43

die and he could not find something to cover his body well

01:15:45--> 01:15:53

if the cover his head, his feet is showing, and that's in the other companions there any that means none of them have anything to give

01:15:57--> 01:16:14

just amazing when you think about that, now you up because somebody said, What's the big deal about clothing? Gender? I have very good cloth. Yeah, but don't look at yourself. Look at the general term. And also that a certain quote, you know, it just, it's still it's means a lot.

01:16:16--> 01:16:30

You know, I, I couldn't understand. I don't do stuff like that. But there is people like we buy this purse, a sister, buy a purse that day is like $4,000 $15,000 just a purse.

01:16:33--> 01:16:34

And she's like,

01:16:35--> 01:16:42

it's a good purse? I'm sure it is. I hope it is, you know, but, but that's a luxury.

01:16:44--> 01:17:14

You know, I was in one of the conference once I saw a brother who's a tailor. And I saw some people doing suits to them. So I like I said, Okay, maybe I'll do a suit too. I never did like a special made suit. He said, Yeah, he doing us like 50% discount on his second law here. He's the father, brother, father in law. So one of our volunteers. I said, How much is it because they saw like two people like doing suits. He said, Oh, it's gonna be $4,000 with 50% discount.

01:17:17--> 01:17:45

I said for how many suits and all of us is it no person? I says I think you know, I don't have that money. And if I don't have that, I don't know if I will ever purchase a suit for $4,000 But you know what one of them such it's different. The quality the thing, but you know what, it has its own that's why it's close. It has value and also by the way, priceless and stuff like that because that's how kings are dressed in the old days.

01:17:46--> 01:17:51

The bracelets the fancy jury that it's a representation of that there is a crown

01:17:52--> 01:17:53

for the believers.

01:17:54--> 01:18:04

You know, there is just a different way you like description also the food of gender. Somebody asked me sure why there is no mention of banana and Janna.

01:18:05--> 01:18:12

Somali for sure. Did you tell her did you tell him that it is mentioned Bella Catarina and Misawa banana. And

01:18:13--> 01:18:26

so he said why there is no banana why there is no mango. I love mango. I said Allah subhanaw taala everything you wish. So a lot of people ask why there is mentioned specific foods specific items, whatever they don't like honey.

01:18:28--> 01:18:41

You see, I'm saying so the answer for this the examples we're giving according to the culture of the people who receive the Quran if you're lost either tell the Sahaba that time and there will be apples.

01:18:43--> 01:18:49

What's the banana? What's the tonight? They don't know what's been on most? Arab? They don't eat that they don't desire that.

01:18:51--> 01:19:08

So it has to be something that it's the What about Nanda Sahaba? The other people the other culture, Allah told them Maya shall they have whatever they wish? Or if I can't imagine how your own the fruit that they wish Shala you can eat Kiwi

01:19:09--> 01:19:16

Dorianne without smell. Yeah. What is the only pain of somebody who's eating food that they really enjoy?

01:19:18--> 01:19:19

Having to stop?

01:19:20--> 01:19:31

Yeah. And so the prophets of Allah Islam says that a person will have the strength of 100 men when it comes to eating and drinking. So that notion of just going to a buffet and being disappointed because

01:19:32--> 01:19:41

you're full. Surely you'll have gaining weight, gaining weight, getting out of hand. You can hold your fat anymore because it's getting better.

01:19:42--> 01:19:44

All bets are off yesterday.

01:19:58--> 01:19:59

That's it. I met

01:20:00--> 01:20:05

We'll talk about that's a whole Friday Night Lights we're going to need for that one fella. Yes.

01:20:17--> 01:20:18

We mean everything

01:20:22--> 01:20:32

you'll have your entire book, if you want to review it, you'll have your book with you. Look, it's something important to remember. Like, what are you? Your memories?

01:20:33--> 01:20:50

And what's the difference between you and anyone sitting here? What you went through and what you experience and those memories in your head. If you're resurrected, and you don't remember anything, you're just something that machine is going to eat. That's it. You have to be you. How's the reward if you don't remember anything?

01:20:51--> 01:21:02

Now, last month, I said the whatta Ferdinand and then the what happened and what's f9 Carbon Ambassador what else one, the trees of gender so colorful.

01:21:03--> 01:21:37

Its palette, very beautiful. You see trees with a different colors, amount of different colors. That's how the gentle looks like not only just one level greenery or just one color, no very colorful. And it is also so green with him Mactan it's like the greenery of it is so beautiful, so appealing. I did not understand the difference between greenery. Until I traveled to Europe, I traveled to the border of Switzerland and the Alps. I saw greenery there that I never seen in any place in the world.

01:21:38--> 01:21:42

No matter what you talk about, I've been to like, you know,

01:21:43--> 01:22:02

many, many different places or the greenery the level of grit is just so beautiful. So that means that there are so many different levels of greenery. And can you imagine dunya is nothing compared to Dhaka. That's one thing if not best said nothing from the Jana. Nothing in this dunya is similar to the agenda except only in the name,

01:22:04--> 01:22:06

tree tree, but the nature of the tree is completely different.

01:22:08--> 01:22:29

wine wine, no Yeti, whatever you think of it just have the same name. But the reality of it is so different. But I would imagine that even what you hated to hear you would not hate an agenda. No. And there's no way that would make sense. And either lactose intolerant guy won't go near the river of milk. Allah they own few you. He'll go near it. Yeah, Sister.

01:22:32--> 01:22:35

Sister, you said, Yeah, Sister behind. It just wants to get

01:22:43--> 01:23:24

in individual houses, you have your own house, you and your spouse, then your children, and you can have them around in the same level of yours. This girl happened to be him to read them. And they said they visit one another. It's a beautiful one. So we're going to have to wrap up. But there's so much that can still be said one of the important concepts, I think is that when you read about gender, and it's important that you read about gender, because like she had mentioned when he talked about fashion that different aspects of gender will resonate with you, even at different periods of your life. So when you're, you know, when things are hectic in your life, and all you need is just

01:23:24--> 01:23:27

stress free peace. You know, that notion of

01:23:29--> 01:24:04

that there's no there's no negative energy in general, that people will have no vision in their hearts towards one another. That might be what motivates you the most, there might be a digital doula. And when she was promised the house from Djibouti, and it said, this was described or Allah subhana data through Djibouti that it was a house that will have no noise in it, it will have no fatigue in it and digital GLONASS, and had the scholars mentioned that that's what it's called. But today, you know, it's you reap what you sow, she had a house that was without any noise. With the province of allied SLM, they never argued, and at the same time, she went through all of this

01:24:04--> 01:24:19

difficulty with the province and allied is that, um, so she's not going to tire in her house at all. And so you will find so many beautiful descriptions of gender that we can't go over tonight, but you'll find something that resonates with you personally, deeply, profoundly. And it's very important that you find that

01:24:21--> 01:24:23

I think one of the elephants in the room

01:24:25--> 01:24:59

that's also a concept that does indena And the Quran speaks about it a lot. And a lot of time people sister asked me, What about I'm like, we need to wrap up. She was like, What about it here today? Now we're here for another hour. Now, but that's a question that's been asked. First of all, I'll surely in our creatures that ALLAH SubhanA made for the people have gender. I am totally in our servants. Okay, and they serve men and woman. So even the female Muslim, she will have a hole into server and

01:25:00--> 01:25:18

To take care of her and to beautify her, I didn't nobody so someone told us all this description of how beautiful surely in our you know, Muslims, female Muslims will be more beautiful than unholy there's like a master and that's a lot of it to make you feel like you know Yanni

01:25:20--> 01:25:33

even if a man have a desire will always desire the one that is more beautiful the one that touches his own spouse. So what about a sister who have no spouse? What you will have? I will say that I will will get her what you wish.

01:25:34--> 01:26:19

What if she wants some as a spouse will give her shift? Can I work? Can I have someone else other than my husband? agenda? I said, you know, what if he made it if he made it to Jana, okay, don't worry, whatever falls on him it will be this disappeared. It will be as perfect as you two. Okay, but if it didn't make it in this case, no, you have someone else or you married multiple men married someone died, marry someone die marry, someone died. Okay. And in this case, what you do you wish you take whatever you wish, whoever you wish. It's not the last one. Not the last one. Thus the strongest opinion Sharon it means to say she will choose whoever she wished to be with. So to hold

01:26:19--> 01:26:26

it in is not a concept that a lot of once a reporter told me what's the deal with the Muslims

01:26:28--> 01:26:31

that when you die, you have a 70 Virgin antenna?

01:26:32--> 01:26:35

I said why you tell us? He said what?

01:26:38--> 01:27:13

What I mean, I don't understand what was the question? First of all 70 This is for the Shaheed love for everybody. Okay, number two, and these are servants like there is basically will down a mandala dune. Also boys who serve who take care of people who over servers and hurtling is an intimate relationship between the man and the hill. Yes, Quran speaks about that, you know, and that's part of the reward is to physical reward and emotional reward for the people of Jenna.

01:27:16--> 01:27:44

Now you're on the topic. Now they're on the topic, what does it mean that they're there like legs or see through you can see there, the marrow of their bones? And what does that mean? Yeah, so this is something if you say today, it might look scary, any you know, yeah, it's kind of it not necessarily to be a beauty. But it is. So that means that their skins and that's if this applies to a woman of gender as well, that their skin is so clear.

01:27:45--> 01:27:53

It's so smooth and so clear, that you can see the veins that runs inside or you see any through it.

01:27:55--> 01:28:09

But I'll tell you a rule of thumb has to do with Jana with hereafter or parallel hellfire. You You understand so many a hadith and so many verses what it means, but you cannot imagine it.

01:28:10--> 01:28:27

There are so many things in Jannah beyond your imagination, because in order for you to imagine something, you have to have some kind of similarity to something else. I understand what that means but how to put it together. It's like the process of them said that there will be cups made of silver, but see through

01:28:28--> 01:28:30

How can be silver but see through

01:28:32--> 01:28:36

How can be silver see through yellow you You tell me?

01:28:37--> 01:28:42

How can be a river liquid runs on the top of water and doesn't spill left or right.

01:28:44--> 01:28:50

I understand what that means. But really to imagine it that too, to know how that will function exactly. It's beyond your imagination.

01:28:51--> 01:28:52

That something beyond you

01:28:54--> 01:28:59

you know? And in the Day of Judgment, everyone will talk to Allah

01:29:01--> 01:29:02

in the same time

01:29:04--> 01:29:14

for you How do Kula Hedeman whom however, he speak to every one of us, in the same time how that can be imagining it's beyond your imagination

01:29:15--> 01:29:32

with your own tongue with your own language. And that's by the way, is people in general only speak in Arabic. Now, they speak everything in every language that they wish some elements and only in Arabic but there's no proof for that you can speak any language you want.

01:29:33--> 01:29:42

And then Allah speak to everyone and talk to everyone in the same time. And everyone feel he's the only one talking to Allah.

01:29:44--> 01:30:00

And that's, that's the best and the highest pleasure and gender Latina Isilon usno is Jada and his agenda for those who don't get agenda is for them and extra what's extra the agenda
