prices due to Allah handmade the Peace and blessings of Allah be upon our beloved prophet muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, and upon all those who follow His guidance, follow his footsteps to follow his way, his methodology, his creed. until the last day. My dear respected brothers and sisters in Islam Assalamu alaykum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.
Today inshallah to Allah,
we will
be discussing some of the prophetic gems related to a chapter which mmm and nowhere in his book riata sila hain in titles as a farmer and the farmer or St. farmer.
And in this chapter, mmm, no Rahim Allah who Tyler he opens up with some verses, with some verses regarding or related to St. Varna. And then he includes only two Hadith to Hadith in this chapter, related to st karma. Now, first of all, as always, let's begin by defining is define what is this word is the karma. Now, karma is the notion or the concept of remaining steadfast, and that's why you the translation that you find in the books, translating the other side of hand, you find the word steadfastness is the economy in steadfastness literally steadfastness or, or end Polish we can use uprightness. You see the Arabic language is a very rich language. And so sometimes you need more
several words to relay the meaning, the intended meaning of an Arabic word. So it's the corner is translated as uprightness and steadfastness. However, in saying that, what are we talking about here? We're talking about remaining steadfast on the laws of Allah, on the Sharia of Allah subhanaw taala that is carrying out the instructions and the commands that we find in the Quran and the Sunnah of the prophet SAW Selim. And refraining and keeping away from the prohibitions
that we also find in the Quran, and the prophetic traditions, the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and that there needs to be of course, plus. So, one of the one of the components of it is the honor is that there needs to be a plus it needs to be sincerity.
The one the one who practices is the foreigner is the practitioner is a must have been a person who is most of him, he's on
following Gani, the straight path and this is why in sort of Fatiha, which is the opening chapter of the Quran that Muslims read no less than 17 times a day in their prayers in their salad.
We say, you know, Sarah Palin was talking in a Surat Al Mustafa.
Okay, you can hear the stick on the part of it, they're in a SWAT team. So
and Allah subhanho wa Taala. Elsewhere in the Quran, he tells us what is the sirata must have been. So when we say in our spirit, there must have been Surat Surat means a path or way. So it must have been it in a subtle masakan sirata Latina anantha la him The path of those that you have showered yoneyama on or provided your blessings upon
in a subtle masakan silica Latina an anti la him and I'm tada him. Elsewhere in the Quran in certainly set. Verse 69. Allah subhanho wa Taala tells us who taught specifically tells us and informs us who are those individuals that he has an AMA Allah him that he has blessed with his blessings. And Allah subhanho wa Taala says one minute in Lucha water, sola hula whoever obeys
Law and His Messenger when my daughter in law hawara salehoo for Ola, aka ma Latina and Imma love ya him they will be with those who Allah has provided his Nana upon his near his blessings. min and nabin they are the prophets and messengers. They are the prophets and the messages was said they attain the truth for once. They are the ones who believed
they are the ones who believed in the message of the profit
that was related to their time
what she had and the martyrs and the sila hain the righteous people.
That's the path that we want to be on the path that these people trot on.
And they are the best of companions and that's what Allah subhanaw taala he seals off this verse is within the set of 16 were hacer una una ikara fiocco. Now in the Hadith, which is found in Muslim, Imam Ahmed, one day, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he drew a line, he drew a line
in the sand.
And he said to them, that this is a lost path.
This is a lost path. And he drew several lines to the right and to the left of this line that's in the middle.
And he said, these are the paths
in other words of misguidance and each of which is a shape on at the head of each of these paths, there is a devil, there was a show bond, inviting people to follow it. And then he recited he recited the,
from sort of an iron which is the sixth chapter of the Quran, verse 153, whereby Allah subhanaw taala says, What
ciroc rocky mustafi Tabby Oh,
Allah subhanaw taala says, verily, this is my path leading straight for who follow it.
Allah subhanaw taala goes on and he says, what type who was while at Tebow sabula Fattah farakka become savvy and do not follow and do not follow the other paths. Do not follow the other path, for they will scare you about from Allah XPath. The path to Allah is one path one way and there are many other pathways that the prophet SAW Selim is telling us that the head of these pathways, there is a shapefile inviting you to that way to misguide you to mislead you to derail you from the true path that we need to be on.
Now the compiler in me know either him or her lover Tyler. He also include a number of verses having to do with Esteban, having to do with being steadfast and being upright.
And the first area that he mentions from sorted hood. Verse 112, Allah subhanho wa Taala says first step in Ghana, Amir, first Hakim comma omit, which translates as be or stay steadfast, be or stay steadfast, as you are commanded, as you are commanded. So here, the address Allah azza wa jal is actually addressing the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he's addressing him specifically.
So he's addressing the process of selling however, the command is applicable to both the prophet SAW Selim and his followers and he's on it's not just to the prophesied seller.
So when the poor and is addressing the Prophet Mohammed Salah Salem, it's actually also addressing his followers.
Except where there is evidence, there is evidence to suggest or that actually shows that it's, this address is specifically towards the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and not and not applicable to his followers. This happens in the Quran.
Otherwise, when the when the prophet SAW Selim is being addressed, we are also as Muslims being addressed. I'll give you an example of where the prophet SAW Selim is being addressed specifically in certain shijin which is of the Quran at verse 87. Allah subhanho wa Taala
He says, What? A NACA sabba and meenal masani Welker and I love him And We have certainly given you. So he has given him a small cell and the seven of the oft repeated verses, and the great quote and and the seven of repeated verses here is referring to certain facts you have. Now, going back to the going back to the verse, Allah subhanaw taala says, stuck in cannot
be or stay steadfast as you are commanded. This means that every single one of us must be upright and steadfast, as Allah has commanded us, what is this include? This means that we should not change the religion of Allah xojo
that we should not be distorting the faith of Allah azza wa jal that we should not be adding to the religion that which is not part of the religion, that we should not be emitting, taking out from the religion. So this is what we see happening with other faiths
that people have added to the faith that people have taken away that people have their own personal interpretation.
And I was speaking to a revert today, and Hamdulillah, Allah subhana wa Tada, Allah, He blessed him with Islam some two weeks ago. And I was asking him the very this very question. And I said to him, you know, what is it that brought you to Islam? And he said, You know, my, my previous faith did not make sense. There were a lot of questions that were unanswered.
And so, because people have added or emitted or distorted, that the original faith and he comes from a Christian background.
So
we find in the Quran, Allah subhanho wa Taala in sort of Shu assura in verse 15, Allah subhanho wa Taala says, and it gives a command was stuck in cannot omit whether
a home
and remain on the right course, okay, as you are committed and do not follow their inclinations.
So follow what Allah is telling you to do. And we find, you know, elsewhere in the Quran, Allah subhana wa tada says, What in total, Thurman fill out. You look at savvy realize that if you were to evade most of the people, if you were to submit to most of the words that people are spreading, they will lead you astray from the path of Allah. Most people are misguided is always the future. It is always the minority.
Now the next verse, that a man will know with a hammer Allahu taala, included in this chapter of this department
is from swift facilities.
vs 3232. Allah subhanho wa Taala says in the levina
Paulo Robin Allah
from Mr. Karma,
that unnecessarily Herman Miller, aka to Allah have one that
will
let you continue to do
that, indeed, those who said Our Lord is Allah,
and then remained on the right course, having that karma, that firmness that uprightness that steadfastness,
the angels, the angels will descend upon them
and they will say do not feed and do not grieve, but receive good tidings of Paradise, which you were promised.
A lot goes on and he says, The angels say earlier or can feed higher to dunya will feel sorrow, while a comfy her Manchester here and for socon. Willa comfy her method down we In other words, the angels
will your allies in this in the world, the life and so and so in the hereafter and you will have there in whatever your soul desires, and you will have there in whatever you request or wish. New Sudan minister
afford him or him as accommodation from a Lord, who is forgiving and who is merciful.
Now, if we analyze this verse, Allah Subhana, Allah is saying, in a loving Apollo rabona law, those who say a lot is our Lord our rub,
who single out and, and testify that only one God worthy of worship and that is Allah
so that he is out acknowledging that he's our Creator. He's our owner. He's our provider.
Those who worship Allah alone, ascribing no partners to him.
So Allah says in melody Nakamura Brahma from Master karma, and this is the this is why a moment No, we included this area, in this chapter, because of the word footmaster. Karma is the karma,
semester.
And they are those who continue to carry out their duties and obligations towards Allah, his Sharia, those individuals who have who say, Rob Boone, Allah, to those who say, Rob Boone, Allah, our Lord is Allah and they are steadfast. So, so here we have that belief and actions, actions, which which exemplify or which show that a person is actually a believer, if you possess these two things, Eman and st karma.
What is the result? What is the fruit? Allah paradisus that unnecessarily Herman Miller aka the angels will descend upon them.
The angels will descend upon them, one after the other, what do they say to the person and let the half full Well, that doesn't
that do not have any fee and do not have any grief.
In other words, the angels will descend by the command of Allah to every scary or horrifying moment, especially when a person is really stayed at the time of death, the angels will be there to come a person down and let a half will feel not what I do not be saddened or grief.
What up Shirou will just let the half work.
So in other words, that is any fee, not what lies ahead, don't have any fee. They give you this glad tiding and that's what you need in the moment that you know you're about to die and you've had the you're filled with fear what's going to happen to me, you need some sort of sign.
And so Allah subhanho wa Taala
he sends the believers, those who believe in Allah azza wa jal by himself who said Robin Allah and they have is the karma those people he sends them angels to give them this this happiness this glad tiding this Bushra
do not see what you're about to what is about to come and do not worry about what is past.
What apps you will be generating, let it continue to adorn but receive good tidings of gender. They give them good tidings of paradise of gentlemen, which you have promised. So every person who says a lot is my rub. Allah is my Lord and remains steadfast from the date of Allah will be from amongst the inhabitants of gem. The angels will also say to them, in addition,
not only or confirm hire to do never feel
that we are your own, yet we are your allies.
We are your allies, in this worldly life and in the Hereafter.
So, the angels will be the allies of the ones who say Allah is our Lord and remain steadfast in this life supporting them and likewise in the hereafter on a dove as a rich
they give them the glad tidings and good news in moments of extreme hardship and fee. Allah then says, when a comfy her malatesta he and for socon while a comfy her methadone and you will have in it other words, engender whatever your soul desires
and you will have in it, whatever you request, whatever you wish because in gender equality
paradise, there will be all that you yearn for all that you desire. And we know elsewhere in the end,
that they will have more than that desire.
So whatever you desire, Allah will give you more because it suited us. Verse 35. Allah says Lahu Maya Sha una v one a day in Emma z that
they will have whatever they will have whatever they wish they're in and with us is more.
Allah gives you even more than you desire and you wish.
And gender as you know, is beyond our imagination.
And that's why the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said, fee her Merlin iunknown right. What was going on semi at what a hot Allah Allah Allah Basha that in the agenda. There are things in it what your eyes have not seen. Your ears have not heard and things that you will not could not even imagine its engine
and and hamdulillah Islam. Islam has given us such a detailed description of Jenna unlike any other scripture of the past
of paradise.
And Allah subhanho wa Taala says New Zealand will Hakuna Rahim as accommodation.
This is your accommodation, gender from a lord who is forgiving Allah forgives and Allah is merciful.
Allah reminds us of his forgiveness, never too late to repent. That Allah Subhana Allah to Allah is Allah Farah, the one who forgives. And so Allah subhanaw taala he forgave their sins, and through His mercy He raised their race.
And this verse portrays the significance of karma, the importance of is the karma and that anyone who goes to extremes in the religion is not practicing is to con is the kind of means that you as I said earlier, that you fulfill the commands of Allah keep away from the prohibitions of Allah azza wa jal
This is what is needed.
Now, the first Hadees that remember we mentioned is the hadith of Sophia and a bin Abdullah.
Sophia, a bin Abdullah, or the loved one who file called to your Rasul Allah, holy fill Islamic colon, left us alone and who had an Iraq call a cool man to be law he semester.
This Hadith which is fed is originally in Sahih. Muslim.
So clearly bin Abdullah, a companion of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he came to him to the prophet SAW Selim, and he said to him, a messenger of Allah, tell me something of Islam about Islam, which I will not ask anyone else about it. So only You are the one who can give me something about Islam that nobody else can give me.
So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
he gave him again, a short phrase, but a very pregnant phrase, a very, a phrase, which is filled with meaning, very comprehensive, because it's from the jawaani, I will tell him the comprehensive words of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
He said, say, I believe in Allah, and then be steadfast. That's it, say, I believe in Allah and be steadfast. associati
meant to be led me to believe I believe in Allah, some mistaken and then follow it up with a Stefan
now saying I believe in, believe it, I believe in Allah. We're not just talking about something that you verbalize with your tongue. That's part of it.
But just about moving your tongue.
Some people, they say we believe in Allah,
and in the last day and all these other things, but they are not sincere believers. It could be hypocrites, whenever your own.
What is meant here is to also say it in your heart,
that you have firm belief in your heart. There is only one God worthy of worship, and that is Allah and that you believe in all of the tenets of faith at canon.
So it's a combination of both your tongue
And your heart and your tongue is
pretty much speaking, what your heart is believing and what your heart is saying. So, there must not be an iota of doubt in your heart about the teachings of Allah as the witches.
When the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam used to invite people to Islam, he would call out to them, and he would say, yeah, a yohannes are people. Yeah, you know, he's not calling out only the believers. Yeah, you know, oh, yeah, you have missed the moon. Yeah, you harness Oh people. kulula illa Illa Allah, c'est la ilaha illa Allah say, there is no god worthy of worship but Allah. Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, to flow and you will prosper. You'll be successful. So Pamela, one phrase, one phrase,
one phrase, and that's what that's what it is. It's a kaeleen.
When you enter Islam, what do you say? How do you enter Islam? You say, a shadow Allah Illa Illa Allah.
What a shadow.
I believe there is only one God worthy of worship Allah and the Prophet Hassan is the Messenger of Allah subhana wa.
Let's see become a Muslim. But you have to believe that not just saying it with your tongue, you have to have a belief.
So
he said kulu say he didn't just say so it's not only in your heart. You have to actually verbalize it and articulate Oulu, La ilaha illAllah to flow, you will prosper, be successful.
So
they're meant to be left.
So he approached us and he said, he meant to be like, I believe in Allah. What does it mean to believe in Allah subhana wa Island, it means to believe in his rubia that Allah subhana wa Taala is the one who controls all affairs of this world. He is the controller of rubia.
That Nothing happens without his permission.
To believe in Allah Subhana Allah in His Will or here, that he is the only god that is deserving of all of that acts of worship, we associate no partners to him, he has no son, he has no equals, he does not begin he was not be gotten
the absolute one and only God Allah azza wa jal is who we dedicate our acts of worship to. Not polytheism No shit, but complete an absolute monotheism. So heat.
It means believing in his names and attributes that Allah azza wa jal, he has named Beautiful Names, attributes.
We believe in all of the laws and all of the injunctions that are in the Quran, and that have come through the Sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam, that we believe in all of the stories that he told us about that happened in the past, that we believe in all of the things that are prophesized in the world and in the sooner process. That's what it means to be led. That's what it means to believe in Allah subhanaw taala. It's all of those things.
It's a package.
And once you believe in all of this, do not allow for the direct derailment of your for the derailment of your email going left or right. Don't add to the religion don't take out from the religion
remaining upright. So he or he said I meant to be left from my stuffing and remain upright. This is the is department. And so how do we say firm through our actions, actions of the limbs for that
the cat
fasting Ramadan, had an all of the other legislations that are legislated by the legislature, Allah subhanho wa Taala.
Now, you notice in this Hadith, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he said to Sophia liben, Abdullah, he says, pull men to be let say, I believe in Allah, then from the from the means them, or afterwards from Mr. Kim. So what this goes to show us is that it's the foreigner comes after him. So we have even then that is the common
belief first, then you implement that belief, implementation of the belief and this is one of the conditions for the exception
sense of actions is that they are built upon Amen. So you can't fast them along and not be a believer. So go to be accepted, okay to be counted for you in your record of good deeds. You can't pray, any good deed that you do, if you want it accepted by Allah azza wa jal, they must be the least before it, they must be mad because all of our deeds are built upon this foundation of belief of Amen.
So
what we can learn from this hadith
is that when a person carries out any act of worship, he should feel that he is doing it lilla
would be left with filler, which means that a person doesn't live there, that when you do any act, you do it for the sake of Allah Xhosa
and that this is a very, very important ingredient. Don't worry about the praise of people.
Because Allah will then just leave you and, and and to them, and how they go to benefit you. This is why for the acceptance of any act of worship in Islam, there must be two fundamentals. Remember this. The first one is
that you do something for the sake of Allah, not to please anybody else but Allah Azza which you don't want people's reward. You want a reward from Allah azza wa jal
and that the second fundamental is that the conformity that the act of worship should be done in accordance with the Sunnah of the Prophet Mohammed Salah who lives in
Sun.
So this is what we call it last Well, it's about that every act of worship, no matter what act of worship, you must have these two important ingredient if they if one of them is missing, that act of worship is now and void not accepted, but a lot of searching.
So, this is what we mean by doing things the left doing things pillar means seeking his hope and his aid always and doing things filler is following his Sharia following his way. And we find this again in certain Fatiha we find these components of Villa and filat infertile Fatiha whereby when we say a yakka or go to a yak and
you will learn we worship there's a sincerity so there is the little air component that's the Leela component a yak Anna Abu do you allow me worship? What a Yeah Can a starting and the biller can component is you alone we seek help
in our Sarah Palin was starting
Guide us to the straight path and that's the part we're talking by doing something filler
that doing it according to the way he wants us to do it.
That's very important.
So
a certain Mr. Kane is therefore the Sharia of Allah that leads to a loss of Hannah, what's
the second Hadith and the last Hadees that remember no we included in this chapter of St. Karma
is the hadith of Abu huraira radi Allahu anhu
in which the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Allah Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam caribou was set to do. Well, Alamo and who lent yanjiu Hayden milcom via Amelie Hello, weather enter your rasulillah Karla
weather Anna Illa Anita hamadani lobera matin Minho
from our homes
is Hades which is also found originally in Sahih Muslim.
It is reported that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Follow the right path of faith strictly
and be steadfast.
And keep in mind that none of you can achieve salvation through his good actions.
So somebody asked the prophet SAW said,
not even you,
not even you own messenger of Allah. In other words, not even your actions are what save you and into your agenda and save you from the fire. Listen to the response of the Prophet sallallahu sallam. The prophet SAW Selim he said, not even me, unless Allah grants me His mercy and grace. unless Allah grants me His mercy and His grace.
So,
this hadith
teaches us that is the karma is in accordance with one's ability.
That's why the prophet SAW Selim, he said baraboo was said to do, caribou was said to do, he said.
In other words, follow the right path have faith strictly and be steadfast. So, what he's saying here is ensure you perfect your deeds, perfect your deeds.
None of us are perfect. Nothing will ever be perfect because perfection only belongs to Allah azza wa jal, but you can be near perfect.
We aim for perfection. We don't achieve perfection, but we can shut a lot be at least Yanni very close to perfection.
And we have to ensure to get as close as possible to perfection that's what the process of me saying here. So when there's an act of worship, with the carried out to the best of our ability, and that's what else what else when the chorus has set up a lot must suffer from fear Allah revealed Allah be conscious of him as much as you can.
And set the due set the domains ensure that your actions are correct as much as possible. So you have to be watchful, that your actions are in accordance with the Sharia of Allah azza wa jal
in accordance with the actions of the prophets, Allah, Allah he was sent.
Whatever was religion, during the time of the Prophet, I send them his religion today, and his religion tomorrow, and every day until the day of judgment, and whatever was not religion. At the time of the prophet SAW, Selim is not religion today, and it won't be religion tomorrow, or until the day of judgment.
You have to bear this in mind.
Because
also what we have to know my dear brothers and sisters in Islam, no matter how much stuck where we have, no matter how much fear of Allah we have, and God consciousness we are,
you are bound to make mistakes. That's why I'm saying try and get it to perfection. Try and get to perfection. And in the Hadith, which is friends with Anna telemovie, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said, khulumani oedema, hapa Waheguru hapa in a boon that all of the sons of Adam make mistakes, were not infallible. Every single human being will make a mistake.
And the process Alan goes on, and he says, the best among them are those who do wrong and repent.
So, if you make a mistake or you do a wrong repent, you will be fine once the past the best among them. And in the habit, which is Venice, ahem Muslim, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. He said, had you not committed sins, had you not committed sins, Allah would have brought into existence, a creation
that would have committed sin,
and Allah would have forgiven them. Allah knows that we got to commit sin. He lives. He wants us to repent. He wants us to ask for forgiveness.
The next part of the Hadith
is the part whereby the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he says, He says, Well Allah, Allah hulan yanjiu I don't mean cambiamenti that none of you will be saved or will be saved will be spared the punishment because of your actions. So you can pray day and night fast every day. Give all of your wealth. You don't intergender because of that.
You don't you will not save from the Hellfire only because of that.
But
your actions because our actions will never be enough to thank Allah azza wa jal.
How do you think Allah for everything that he has graced us with? blessed us with? He's going to give us an eternal life of engender forever? How could you ever think Allah azza wa jal?
Even your thinking Allah azza wa jal requires thanks. The fact that you can thank you. That's an M.
So your actions will never be enough to fake allies though.
We enter Jenna and we are spared the punishment of the hellfire.
Because of the mercy of Allah Subhan, Allah subhanaw. taala is a rough man. And he is around him, the old Merciful, the specifically merciful.
And the next part of the Hadith, he was asked the question, do they said, well, Auntie Ursula, even you a messenger of Allah, that you will enter gender, not because of your actions, even you.
So what this is saying, and he said, Even me,
this is applicable to even me. So what this is saying, it doesn't matter what your status is.
It doesn't matter how you're a king, you're a queen, you're a prince, you're a prophet.
It doesn't matter that you're a leader of big organization, you're a chef, all of these things. It's not what enter your agenda.
Again, it is the mercy of Allah azza wa jal.
And so your actions, yes, they are a reason that I said that
your actions are a reason I said that to enter agenda. But it's not the only reason why you antigen, or why you were spared the punishment of the fight is something we have to understand and remember,
now, this Hadees In conclusion,
it teaches us not to have pride with regards to our actions that matter how much they add up to, no matter how much actions you've done, done, have pride. I think look how much I've done looking at soccer I've given Look how much I pray, look how much I do, because it's not your actions that will encijan don't have pride. Islam is very against pride, in a sense, whereby a person has this pride about him the process I said, I've said that a person will not intergender who has a mustard seed of pride in their heart.
Islam encourages being humble.
We also learn that your actions are very insignificant, a very little
compared to what Allah has offered us and given us and blessed us with.
What are our actions compared to what Allah is giving us?
We also learn to always ask Allah to envelop us, with his, with his mercy, to always ask him, you, Allah, Hamner, pura hermetica here, Allah, please make me intergender through your mercy and not through my actions. That way, you're acknowledging that you are that you want to intergender through the refinement of Allah azza wa jal, not through your actions.
We also learn about the keenness of the Sahaba of the companions, to seek knowledge, because they asked the prophets I said that that is general statement.
And this is the Sahaba were very eager to learn and to increase their knowledge. And they were always keen about learning about matters that would benefit them in this life, and benefit them in the hereafter. And that's how we should be as Muslims always asked me about beneficial things, how can we benefit ourselves, our family,
the people that are around us in this life, and how can we benefit and how can we invest for our hereafter? Let us strike that balance. Let us cure ignorance. And the cure for ignorance is to question is to ask about relevant things. Don't ask about irrelevant things. In one leg, in fact, there is knowledge out there that is not beneficial.
And there is ignorance that does not harm. What jehlen layer don't ask, even at best for the loved one who are the other famous companions of the Prophet SAW Selim.
He had so much knowledge he was a walking treasure chest of knowledge. And they asked him how did you attain such great amount of knowledge? He said, Billy sent in so all I had a tongue that questions much and by comprehending
what Calvin aku he would make an effort to understand let us not be superficial Muslims. Always just surfacing just yeah, we know the Hadith we know the act, but do you know the meaning? The depth, there is depth, but looking in between the lines, searching for the meanings and applying this knowledge, and when you apply knowledge, Allah blesses you with knowledge that you didn't know.
That's what the LMS said. Men are Mila Bhima what rasa hula Who? In met Mel amyrlin
that who
Ever act upon what he knows Allah blesses him
knowledge that he didn't know that's what we need to do. The way you keep knowledge alive is by implementation it's what Islam teaches us not just about how fancy the books on the cover and all that sort of thing in the print and his published in the printing company it's not about that all about all this pumping glitter and glamour and all that this is all irrelevant.
Let's look at the substance look at the content inshallah.
And these are the words in shallow title that I wish to live We leave you with about karma, we ask Allah subhanaw taala to grant a sister karma and to make us from other from monks, those who prosper in this life and from amongst those who are successful and prosperous in the hereafter. Allah who to Allah Allah was sallallahu wasallam Baraka Elena, Bina Muhammad
