Ammar Alshukry – How to Start Life With a Clean Slate

			hamdu lillah wa salatu salam ala Rasulillah, to not be intimidated by a Pokerface.
		

			There was a brother who came to the message he had a friend of his friend was non Muslim. And he
came and he sat down across from me at the desk, and he said that he had a number of questions about
Islam. And by the second question, I realized that he had basically went to an anti Islamic website,
and he basically pulled off all of the questions that he could. And so it was one question after
another one about *, one about tattoos one about the beheading of an apostate one about
marrying cousins. And there's just a wide range of questions. And I would answer each question and
after I was done with the question, waiting for a response from him, he would just go on to the next
		

			question. He wouldn't give me a not so much even to indicate that he understood and comprehended
what I said he would just move on to the next question. And so after a while, I was wondering if I
was even having any sort of effect on this individual. And then by the end, he came to the final
question, he said, Is it true that accepting Islam forgives all of your previous previous sense. And
as soon as he said that, I began to appreciate that particular reward. I began to think of Ahmed and
asked how he would pull back his his hand from the Prophet sallallaahu synonyms outstretched hand
and he until he got a guarantee that
		

			if he accepted Islam, everything that he had done until that moment will be forgiven. How powerful a
promise. How great is that reward? You know, the human experience is filled with a life that's
filled with shortcomings and mistakes and lots of stupid ones. Many of them are intentional, a lot
of them aren't. Some of them are inspired by greed of a moment or ignorance, or lust, or
miscalculations, or any of these things, and how many are they? We wouldn't be none of us would be
able to count our mistakes and our shortcomings. And so this person is encouraged by this promise
that if he accepts Islam, in that moment, all of their previous sins will be forgotten. I began to
		

			appreciate just a little bit more of the wisdom of Allah azza wa jal that he paired that reward with
that action, there is no money that is equal to the freeing of a conscience, or the feeling of of,
of entering a new slate, the beginning of a new slate, beginning and life again. And so and he
accepted Islam and Hamdulillah. And it was a very beautiful moment. And I wanted to share in this
video just that thought, as well as the a couple of items that we can do actions that we can do as
muslims that have the same promise. The first of them is Toba to repent. That a person who repents
from a sin is like the one who never committed it. The second is Hajj, the prophet cellulitis and
		

			and he told us that hajj when a person commits Hajj, and does not commit any lewdness or indecency
in the hajj, they return as if their mother has just given birth to them also fasting the month of
Ramadan, the province of Alberta cinema said that whoever fast the month of Ramadan out of Eman and
seeking its reward will have their previous sins forgiven and whoever stands the nights of Ramadan
at of Iman and seeking its reward will have all of their previous sins forgiven and whoever
experiences later to other the night of power out of iman in it and seeking its reward will have
their previous sins forgiven. So we ask Allah as they're just to forgive our sins. So Allah Allah is
