00:00:01--> 00:00:06

I'll say this a lot in the last piece, invest in Indiana glass on the federal level.

00:00:08--> 00:00:11

And then algos and follow the path of righteousness,

00:00:12--> 00:00:13

until the last day

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

of

00:00:18--> 00:00:21

this afternoon's presentation

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

is that of salvation and repentance.

00:00:27--> 00:00:29

And this topic

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

is not often talked about

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

in

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

Muslim circles.

00:00:41--> 00:00:44

Many of us who come from different backgrounds, familiar with

00:00:45--> 00:00:47

the idea of salvation,

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

essential to Christian

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

theology.

00:00:59--> 00:01:02

Why according to them, God became man

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

to die

00:01:06--> 00:01:10

for man's salvation. So it's a very central principle

00:01:11--> 00:01:12

in Christianity,

00:01:14--> 00:01:15

essence of

00:01:16--> 00:01:17

Jesus being God,

00:01:18--> 00:01:20

and Jesus becoming an object of worship.

00:01:26--> 00:01:27

In Islam actually,

00:01:29--> 00:01:31

without proper salvation is also

00:01:32--> 00:01:33

a very important

00:01:35--> 00:01:37

concept, very important

00:01:38--> 00:01:39

principle,

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

which is

00:01:42--> 00:01:44

the principle of repentance,

00:01:46--> 00:01:49

from Christianity, in that

00:01:50--> 00:01:51

retention,

00:02:00--> 00:02:01

we have no

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

intermediary,

00:02:05--> 00:02:07

no one can save us,

00:02:09--> 00:02:11

salvation is in our own hands.

00:02:13--> 00:02:16

So, the principle of retention

00:02:17--> 00:02:18

and salvation

00:02:20--> 00:02:23

is fundamental to the system.

00:02:29--> 00:02:31

human weakness,

00:02:33--> 00:02:36

possibilities for men to become perfect,

00:02:42--> 00:02:44

we have been given certain

00:02:46--> 00:02:47

responsibilities

00:02:50--> 00:02:55

along with the blessings is allowed, as bestowed on us as human beings.

00:02:57--> 00:03:00

However, the fulfillment of these responsibilities

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

in the fullest sense,

00:03:04--> 00:03:05

complete you

00:03:11--> 00:03:12

will have

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

created us

00:03:20--> 00:03:23

and one of the consequences of

00:03:26--> 00:03:27

our

00:03:29--> 00:03:30

human failings

00:03:38--> 00:03:40

has provided for us

00:03:41--> 00:03:45

a route by which we can atone for the failures

00:03:50--> 00:03:51

provided for us

00:03:56--> 00:03:57

to salvation

00:03:58--> 00:04:01

through repentance from these

00:04:02--> 00:04:05

which are inevitable for us to commit

00:04:16--> 00:04:16

when we

00:04:19--> 00:04:20

utilize forgiveness

00:04:23--> 00:04:26

and Allah is merciful to us

00:04:32--> 00:04:35

attribute of being the most merciful

00:04:36--> 00:04:37

manifest

00:04:39--> 00:04:43

that is this quality of commitment.

00:04:45--> 00:04:46

And repentance

00:04:48--> 00:04:50

means his allies chosen

00:04:51--> 00:04:53

and he could take any means that he wishes

00:04:55--> 00:04:57

for the manifestation of his message

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

I'm not saying that

00:05:03--> 00:05:05

as a philosophical point

00:05:08--> 00:05:11

that this is actually based on the statement of Mohammed

00:05:13--> 00:05:14

was, he thought that

00:05:15--> 00:05:17

if mankind didn't come,

00:05:28--> 00:05:30

a lot would have destroyed mankind

00:05:32--> 00:05:35

and replace them with another people who

00:05:36--> 00:05:39

turn back to alive the sentence. And he was

00:05:43--> 00:05:44

on the words of the Prophet Muhammad,

00:05:55--> 00:05:58

when we look at the story of Adam,

00:05:59--> 00:06:00

and Eve,

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

the essence of that story

00:06:08--> 00:06:09

is one,

00:06:14--> 00:06:16

repentance and salvation.

00:06:20--> 00:06:32

I know some people make Adam and Eve in symbolic senses, when they will give a variety of interpretations as to who Adam really represented,

00:06:34--> 00:06:35

and who he represents,

00:06:36--> 00:06:48

what the error was, and what the tree was, etc, such that these interpretations are not found in the teachings of the Prophet Elias

00:06:50--> 00:06:52

and as such, we should avoid them.

00:06:55--> 00:06:59

Believe that Adam and Eve were the first two

00:07:04--> 00:07:05

we can see

00:07:08--> 00:07:11

that alarm provided them with certain knowledge

00:07:13--> 00:07:14

or human weaknesses,

00:07:18--> 00:07:19

disobeyed

00:07:30--> 00:07:36

a lot provided them with knowledge of how to attain salvation,

00:07:41--> 00:07:42

asking his forgiveness.

00:07:44--> 00:07:45

And he

00:07:53--> 00:07:54

became the first

00:07:56--> 00:07:57

among men,

00:08:01--> 00:08:03

when he was usually the first of

00:08:07--> 00:08:09

which has been given to a very few,

00:08:16--> 00:08:18

there was no original

00:08:20--> 00:08:23

in the sense that the air of Adam and he

00:08:27--> 00:08:28

inherited in any way

00:08:33--> 00:08:37

the essence of the story is there for us to learn,

00:08:43--> 00:08:44

turn back

00:08:56--> 00:08:59

and this is very, very important for us as Muslims,

00:09:00--> 00:09:01

if we do not

00:09:02--> 00:09:06

make it a regular part of our life,

00:09:13--> 00:09:15

other acts of worship we do like

00:09:18--> 00:09:19

fasting,

00:09:21--> 00:09:25

we make it a purpose regularly seeking allows forgiveness.

00:09:26--> 00:09:29

Then he tries to become hardened,

00:09:32--> 00:09:33

committed so many errors,

00:09:38--> 00:09:43

forgiveness and as such, we fall into the

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

transgression

00:09:47--> 00:09:47

and he will.

00:09:50--> 00:09:58

So it is a principle which is really essential for us to maintain and to develop our spirituality

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

Principle of committing errors

00:10:02--> 00:10:05

and seeking repentance for the errors.

00:10:08--> 00:10:11

This principle is from human development.

00:10:15--> 00:10:20

As we know, it does not move, for us to turn to him.

00:10:22--> 00:10:25

It is we who needs to turn to him.

00:10:28--> 00:10:33

Allah has placed this principle in our lives for our benefit

00:10:36--> 00:10:42

whereby we as human beings, when we commit errors,

00:10:43--> 00:10:45

and we realize these errors

00:10:47--> 00:10:48

and we turn that to a law,

00:10:50--> 00:10:54

sincerely His forgiveness, then we become better people.

00:10:56--> 00:10:58

This is a process of

00:11:00--> 00:11:04

the fastest of the spiritual development of human beings.

00:11:05--> 00:11:09

And the more he turns in repentance,

00:11:10--> 00:11:12

the better person he becomes

00:11:15--> 00:11:15

Adam,

00:11:18--> 00:11:20

Adam descendants are

00:11:21--> 00:11:25

continually committing errors, the heart of hearts are

00:11:27--> 00:11:34

the death and those who commit these errors are those who turn back frequently to allow repentance.

00:11:38--> 00:11:39

This is a principle

00:11:40--> 00:11:44

that we need to be turning back to allow

00:11:46--> 00:11:47

sincerely

00:11:50--> 00:11:51

protection of

00:11:54--> 00:11:55

our spiritual development.

00:12:00--> 00:12:02

When we talk about repentance,

00:12:04--> 00:12:05

seeking forgiveness,

00:12:07--> 00:12:08

common

00:12:09--> 00:12:12

common people tend to think of it in terms of saying

00:12:16--> 00:12:16

I seek

00:12:18--> 00:12:19

forgiveness from you.

00:12:22--> 00:12:23

And those become

00:12:25--> 00:12:26

bad then on the fingers.

00:12:28--> 00:12:28

With accounts

00:12:30--> 00:12:32

when people will be

00:12:34--> 00:12:38

almost nervously going through this

00:12:39--> 00:12:41

finger movement, a rapid finger movement

00:12:48--> 00:12:51

a particular number 100 they want to complete you know, get on with a business.

00:12:57--> 00:12:58

But we need to stop

00:13:06--> 00:13:08

is this really of any benefit to

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

the elderly?

00:13:37--> 00:13:43

Whatever we say allows phrases it should come from our heart

00:13:49--> 00:13:51

and it may involve our fingers.

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

But it should come from our heart

00:13:55--> 00:13:57

should come with reflection

00:14:01--> 00:14:03

being conscious of what we're saying.

00:14:08--> 00:14:10

And it can have a real effect

00:14:16--> 00:14:18

after looking over

00:14:20--> 00:14:23

many of the various sets from the Quran and the Sunnah.

00:14:26--> 00:14:29

Some scholars have identified

00:14:30--> 00:14:33

certain conditions which are necessary

00:14:34--> 00:14:38

for repentance to be truly sincere and acceptable.

00:14:43--> 00:14:48

These conditions are found within the text of the violence.

00:14:51--> 00:14:51

Things made

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

by certain

00:14:55--> 00:14:59

individuals who consider themselves to be spiritual

00:15:00--> 00:15:03

Lots of people around change boxes.

00:15:04--> 00:15:09

They can look at you and see what your problem is. And they will tell you what you need to do.

00:15:10--> 00:15:18

And we have people like that. So what I'm speaking here now is things which are not spoken about.

00:15:19--> 00:15:23

The Prophet Muhammad, Allah has identified as necessary

00:15:26--> 00:15:27

to achieve

00:15:31--> 00:15:33

acceptable to Allah.

00:15:34--> 00:15:38

The first principle is that we should remember,

00:15:39--> 00:15:42

it should involve the remembrance of Allah.

00:15:43--> 00:15:53

Because, in essence, all of the worship that we do, every act of worship that we performed, it is ultimately

00:15:54--> 00:15:58

to develop in ourselves, a consciousness of a law,

00:16:00--> 00:16:02

it is for the remembrance of Allah.

00:16:08--> 00:16:12

We find this in the description of fasting,

00:16:15--> 00:16:19

describe it for us, as we did before

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

you may become

00:16:27--> 00:16:27

conscious.

00:16:33--> 00:16:35

A lot also speaks about follow

00:16:37--> 00:16:38

up in this fella

00:16:40--> 00:16:43

established the prayer for my

00:16:47--> 00:16:48

various acts of worship,

00:16:49--> 00:16:50

factor,

00:16:51--> 00:16:52

foundation.

00:16:53--> 00:17:00

Why because it is in the remembrance of Allah, that we become righteous individuals.

00:17:02--> 00:17:07

It is when the forgetfulness of Allah that we stray,

00:17:11--> 00:17:16

because Islam once or once from us, licenses

00:17:17--> 00:17:21

us to become righteous individuals, then we have

00:17:23--> 00:17:30

to develop in us, this consciousness of God because if in fact, the efforts of

00:17:33--> 00:17:34

the consciousness of Allah

00:17:36--> 00:17:38

which makes us do good

00:17:42--> 00:17:44

even though we may feel

00:17:45--> 00:17:45

that

00:17:47--> 00:17:48

no one

00:17:49--> 00:17:49

will no

00:17:57--> 00:17:58

policeman,

00:18:02--> 00:18:03

artificial

00:18:17--> 00:18:19

life will be good.

00:18:23--> 00:18:24

We're working on a job.

00:18:26--> 00:18:27

We do our best

00:18:30--> 00:18:35

not because we're trying to put on a show for the supervisor or boss

00:18:38--> 00:18:41

work syndrome where and people are hard workers, whenever the

00:18:43--> 00:18:46

supervisor from the working life is

00:18:49--> 00:18:50

born and you see them fall back into

00:18:52--> 00:18:53

work.

00:19:01--> 00:19:04

Because you know, if you signed a contract,

00:19:07--> 00:19:08

that he will do

00:19:10--> 00:19:11

so much.

00:19:13--> 00:19:18

So much, then for him not to do that. And that money is

00:19:20--> 00:19:21

simply It is

00:19:26--> 00:19:27

said about the individual.

00:19:47--> 00:19:48

He does his best

00:19:50--> 00:19:54

he committed himself to because of his fear of Allah.

00:19:58--> 00:19:59

This is what separates us.

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

The rest of the world

00:20:05--> 00:20:08

the rest of the world does good

00:20:09--> 00:20:12

whenever the first is a far cry

00:20:15--> 00:20:15

number

00:20:17--> 00:20:18

50

00:20:21--> 00:20:22

sometime in the 80s

00:20:24--> 00:20:26

and there have been a blackout

00:20:29--> 00:20:30

electrical grid

00:20:34--> 00:20:37

and New York City was plunged in darkness

00:20:38--> 00:20:39

today

00:20:42--> 00:20:43

when I got there

00:20:45--> 00:20:46

look like Germany after world war two

00:20:50--> 00:20:53

windows stores was smashed glass all over the streets

00:20:55--> 00:20:57

windows have boarded up shops

00:20:59--> 00:21:03

and they were showing on the television back in the day after they

00:21:04--> 00:21:09

showed on the television people had been used to plugging into the television cameras in the

00:21:11--> 00:21:12

old sublicense

00:21:13--> 00:21:17

require the people in or just driving up to the car in the window.

00:21:22--> 00:21:24

What is happening is that the person is

00:21:25--> 00:21:33

going to the supermarket or getting the food in the newspaper also driving up to the Mercedes Benz first story the diamonds

00:21:34--> 00:21:35

with juice.

00:21:40--> 00:21:41

Why because

00:21:43--> 00:21:43

you know,

00:21:45--> 00:21:49

the function everybody saw us nobody was going to catch them nobody could see them.

00:21:52--> 00:21:52

Only how

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

to deliver his rights based on his consciousness of

00:22:08--> 00:22:09

he knows that whatever he does,

00:22:11--> 00:22:12

he will have to

00:22:13--> 00:22:15

answer to allow

00:22:21--> 00:22:23

the beginning of retention.

00:22:25--> 00:22:26

Remember remembrance of Allah

00:22:36--> 00:22:38

speaks to this factor.

00:22:40--> 00:22:41

He says

00:22:50--> 00:22:51

For

00:22:54--> 00:22:58

those who haven't done some central or having

00:22:59--> 00:23:00

their own souls

00:23:05--> 00:23:06

and immediately asked forgiveness.

00:23:19--> 00:23:22

We're coming arrows when they do serve.

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

Remember

00:23:26--> 00:23:26

remember,

00:23:27--> 00:23:31

they turned back to a law seeking is

00:23:44--> 00:23:46

when we turn back to allow

00:23:50--> 00:23:51

to impress anybody.

00:23:53--> 00:23:54

We're turning back

00:23:55--> 00:23:59

because we have remembered him and

00:24:06--> 00:24:07

collected in Ohio

00:24:08--> 00:24:11

inform others about his good deeds

00:24:14--> 00:24:16

against them in public for acclaim.

00:24:25--> 00:24:28

When we turn to enough, we don't do so

00:24:29--> 00:24:31

to impress others

00:24:33--> 00:24:35

to show others how pious we may be.

00:24:38--> 00:24:39

This is why

00:24:52--> 00:24:53

the middle of the night

00:24:57--> 00:24:59

because you can't be impressing anybody.

00:25:11--> 00:25:14

Unfortunately, most of us

00:25:15--> 00:25:16

miss this opportunity

00:25:21--> 00:25:24

this is the best of friends it means that if needed

00:25:38--> 00:25:41

to utilize this type of information is

00:25:42--> 00:25:42

provided

00:25:45--> 00:25:47

as a term to align with infants

00:25:51--> 00:25:53

when we are closest to them

00:25:55--> 00:25:57

when there is no one to impress

00:26:06--> 00:26:07

the second principle

00:26:09--> 00:26:10

is that immediately

00:26:15--> 00:26:16

you don't come in

00:26:18--> 00:26:19

and then you wait.

00:26:21--> 00:26:21

And you wait.

00:26:23--> 00:26:25

Before you turn back to Allah

00:26:29--> 00:26:30

you commit the sin

00:26:31--> 00:26:39

Do you enjoy the the pleasure which comes from that for a while until it wears off and then you decide okay, now

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

just again,

00:26:47--> 00:26:48

you think fun,

00:26:49--> 00:26:51

is not aware of what you're doing?

00:26:53--> 00:26:56

No sincerity. This is why

00:26:57--> 00:26:58

Allah says

00:26:59--> 00:27:00

in no matoba

00:27:09--> 00:27:09

me

00:27:12--> 00:27:15

show you allow forgiveness of the sins in ignorance.

00:27:16--> 00:27:17

And soon

00:27:29--> 00:27:30

a lot of subjects were

00:27:35--> 00:27:37

in a race of forgiveness.

00:27:53--> 00:27:54

Actually what we do

00:27:55--> 00:27:56

when we delay

00:27:57--> 00:28:00

besides the fact of enjoying the pleasure,

00:28:03--> 00:28:04

we are in fact

00:28:08--> 00:28:10

that we know the future

00:28:12--> 00:28:15

that you will have time to turn back.

00:28:18--> 00:28:18

And in fact,

00:28:21--> 00:28:22

you don't know when you're going to die.

00:28:24--> 00:28:26

So we should never keep

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

coming back to

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

you later.

00:28:33--> 00:28:34

Because we have no guarantee

00:28:59--> 00:29:00

to speak of loss.

00:29:07--> 00:29:08

Something really, really important

00:29:12--> 00:29:12

to think about

00:29:14--> 00:29:17

how many times you come up with an error and we just keep on going.

00:29:40--> 00:29:45

The third major principle is that the sufficient

00:29:46--> 00:29:50

sufficient meaning that you cease and desist, stop.

00:29:53--> 00:29:54

Stop immediately.

00:29:57--> 00:29:57

You cannot

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

be committed

00:30:03--> 00:30:05

And continue to do the same

00:30:07--> 00:30:09

to a lot of forgiveness

00:30:11--> 00:30:12

comes together

00:30:21--> 00:30:23

because as long as you continue to do it

00:30:28--> 00:30:29

you're become

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

disobedient.

00:30:33--> 00:30:35

In the previous verse that I mentioned

00:30:42--> 00:30:44

in ignorance, we do this wrong

00:30:48--> 00:30:50

sin becomes a deliberate sin

00:30:52--> 00:30:53

flattening

00:30:55--> 00:30:56

Can you continue to do it?

00:30:59--> 00:31:01

This is an expression of a hardened heart

00:31:05--> 00:31:07

that has virtually no hope.

00:31:15--> 00:31:16

You telling us

00:31:21--> 00:31:22

to reflect on

00:31:24--> 00:31:27

the quality of our worship

00:31:35--> 00:31:36

delivers

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

not

00:31:57--> 00:32:02

we do not knowingly persist in the wrong we have done

00:32:06--> 00:32:08

forgiveness under law

00:32:11--> 00:32:13

they do not learn with the system that

00:32:14--> 00:32:15

the condition

00:32:16--> 00:32:17

otherwise

00:32:18--> 00:32:20

we do not attain forgiveness for that

00:32:24--> 00:32:25

person, for example,

00:32:44--> 00:32:49

are alive His Messenger has declared war against those who do not

00:32:54--> 00:32:57

have said that his interest has 70 branch

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

branches

00:33:02--> 00:33:04

is like a man having sex with his mother.

00:33:09--> 00:33:11

That is not the law.

00:33:12--> 00:33:13

If you commit

00:33:15--> 00:33:16

the sin of dealing with river

00:33:18--> 00:33:24

The law says that you must be taken and stormed or beaten as you would be if you're

00:33:25--> 00:33:27

having sexual relations with your mother.

00:33:28--> 00:33:30

This is not what the past is comparing here.

00:33:31--> 00:33:32

What are you comparing

00:33:35--> 00:33:36

a consciousness

00:33:39--> 00:33:45

by the individual who suggested to somebody suggested to you

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

to have relations with your mother your reports

00:33:52--> 00:33:53

your stomach wide

00:34:01--> 00:34:02

the same way that

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

somebody suggests you could

00:34:11--> 00:34:13

take out a loan

00:34:14--> 00:34:16

the same way you should feel

00:34:17--> 00:34:18

this is the point.

00:34:22--> 00:34:24

And if you don't feel that way,

00:34:25--> 00:34:28

then there is something wrong with your face.

00:34:31--> 00:34:32

Feel

00:34:34--> 00:34:39

to your stomach to the idea of going to the bank

00:34:40--> 00:34:41

and dealing with interest.

00:34:44--> 00:34:46

Then there is something wrong with your feet

00:34:50--> 00:34:50

is not

00:34:51--> 00:34:53

allowed declaration of war.

00:34:54--> 00:34:56

You are among those who are lost.

00:35:15--> 00:35:16

If we commit them,

00:35:19--> 00:35:23

we cannot achieve salvation, atonement,

00:35:24--> 00:35:26

unless we do

00:35:33--> 00:35:33

our brother

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

life to Him,

00:35:44--> 00:35:48

we cannot turn off Forgive me. And that covers this

00:35:53--> 00:36:01

has chosen a federal contract principle that he will not forgive me for saying you commit against your brother,

00:36:04--> 00:36:13

for sins, you commit against him, in your disobedience to him, the work you have committed against your brother, he will not forgive.

00:36:15--> 00:36:18

Unless you ask forgiveness from yoga.

00:36:24--> 00:36:25

You know,

00:36:27--> 00:36:30

one occasion he asked his companions, you learn

00:36:33--> 00:36:34

a bankrupt person.

00:36:52--> 00:36:53

The truly

00:36:56--> 00:36:57

the one who

00:36:58--> 00:37:01

is the one who comes before a lot of the day judges.

00:37:08--> 00:37:14

There's so many good things among this winning side, guaranteed.

00:37:24--> 00:37:26

Individual he suffered.

00:37:27--> 00:37:28

He cheated.

00:37:29--> 00:37:31

He did this he did that he did that.

00:37:34--> 00:37:36

To make up for what

00:37:37--> 00:37:40

that individual did, they will fix some of his good

00:37:42--> 00:37:46

standing there judgment, taking from the scale of with these things,

00:37:49--> 00:37:50

continue to take

00:37:52--> 00:37:53

good deeds or finished

00:37:57--> 00:37:58

evil deeds

00:38:00--> 00:38:02

and he will be thrown in hell.

00:38:05--> 00:38:07

This is the one is fully

00:38:13--> 00:38:14

connected

00:38:20--> 00:38:30

regards with honor, or anything else should seek His pardon. Now, before the time when neither Geno's

00:38:31--> 00:38:33

will be of any benefit.

00:38:34--> 00:38:43

At that time, if he would be an amount equal to the wrong will be taken. But if he has learned

00:38:44--> 00:38:46

from the wrong person will be put on him.

00:38:50--> 00:38:53

So, if we have committed an error against our best

00:38:54--> 00:38:56

we should turn to Him

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

and ask His

00:39:01--> 00:39:02

express our

00:39:05--> 00:39:06

feeling of round

00:39:07--> 00:39:07

after that.

00:39:10--> 00:39:13

And this is an area where

00:39:19--> 00:39:19

because

00:39:21--> 00:39:24

it is one in which you have to struggle with

00:39:25--> 00:39:27

the original sin.

00:39:29--> 00:39:30

side.

00:39:32--> 00:39:35

Original Sin for us is five

00:39:38--> 00:39:41

which called Satan. He believes

00:39:43--> 00:39:45

a lot better than you are.

00:39:48--> 00:39:50

When he was commanded to bow to Adam.

00:39:54--> 00:39:57

Say I am better than him.

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

You

00:40:00--> 00:40:02

I mean from clay and you made me

00:40:03--> 00:40:05

I am better than

00:40:06--> 00:40:06

Dr.

00:40:10--> 00:40:16

Norman who has a mustard seed worth of pride in his heart would enter Paradise.

00:40:21--> 00:40:22

One of the things that

00:40:30--> 00:40:33

I heard in different ways as experience

00:40:35--> 00:40:38

deeper feeling proud because we are

00:40:40--> 00:40:40

these people

00:40:44--> 00:40:45

I'm a Jamaican

00:40:47--> 00:40:48

you're only a Trinidadian.

00:41:24--> 00:41:24

This is

00:41:26--> 00:41:27

the opposite.

00:41:32--> 00:41:38

Together got people together from various military, the motor manufacturers,

00:41:40--> 00:41:41

Ethiopian

00:41:51--> 00:41:56

but the stories are just read about we enjoy

00:41:58--> 00:41:59

our children

00:42:08--> 00:42:11

and communities reflected

00:42:14--> 00:42:15

and we can be certain

00:42:17--> 00:42:21

that Islam will never be established here

00:42:22--> 00:42:23

until

00:42:25--> 00:42:27

the National Rail show

00:42:33--> 00:42:34

in the heart of

00:42:38--> 00:42:39

it will never be

00:42:50--> 00:42:51

this is a rather bad

00:42:56--> 00:42:56

weather

00:42:57--> 00:42:59

it is pointed out to him.

00:43:14--> 00:43:15

None of you

00:43:26--> 00:43:27

without

00:43:33--> 00:43:35

the elevation

00:43:47--> 00:43:49

into humility.

00:43:57--> 00:43:58

Most of us

00:43:59--> 00:44:00

have missed the message.

00:44:03--> 00:44:05

Most of us have missed the message.

00:44:18--> 00:44:18

The

00:44:21--> 00:44:23

principle of condition

00:44:25--> 00:44:25

and

00:44:33--> 00:44:41

just above the last one, actually a few more but in order to give you an opportunity to ask some questions before we run into

00:44:42--> 00:44:43

Monday.

00:44:45--> 00:44:47

I will try to just cut it short

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

is

00:44:58--> 00:44:59

that we must

00:45:08--> 00:45:16

Having done something wrong returns to a lot, we have to feel sadness within ourselves.

00:45:17--> 00:45:19

We have to feel truly sorry.

00:45:20--> 00:45:21

It has to be there.

00:45:22--> 00:45:25

Otherwise that training isn't real.

00:45:26--> 00:45:28

It's a just a ritual

00:45:30--> 00:45:36

that sadness is one of the core principles of retention

00:45:39--> 00:45:42

is collected by the manager that is authentic,

00:45:44--> 00:45:45

authenticated by

00:45:49--> 00:45:50

the manager.

00:45:51--> 00:45:58

I came with my father to have the law and heard him say, I heard a lot messenger say,

00:45:59--> 00:46:01

his repentance.

00:46:03--> 00:46:08

Did you actually hear the Prophet sorry, immersively comes in? He replied, Yes,

00:46:09--> 00:46:11

remorse is repentance

00:46:13--> 00:46:15

is the essence of repentance.

00:46:16--> 00:46:19

remorse, has got to be here.

00:46:22--> 00:46:27

This is a product of being aware of a life an expression of God's

00:46:29--> 00:46:32

desire than corruption. And

00:46:33--> 00:46:34

somehow that

00:46:36--> 00:46:39

in summary can go home and you know, we're on The God

00:46:47--> 00:46:48

Delusion

00:46:50--> 00:46:51

doing a righteous deed,

00:46:53--> 00:46:53

which is when

00:46:55--> 00:46:59

resent some error. We check ourselves to stop doing

00:47:00--> 00:47:07

we feel sorry about it. He turns when we tried to do some good this is when we're going to do whips.

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

of value.

00:47:19--> 00:47:20

last measure principle

00:47:22--> 00:47:22

is that

00:47:24--> 00:47:29

forgiveness is only acceptable. If it comes before

00:47:34--> 00:47:36

when the death rattle begins,

00:47:38--> 00:47:38

the man

00:47:40--> 00:47:44

when he realizes the excesses upon return, forgive me.

00:47:53--> 00:47:54

It will be too late.

00:47:57--> 00:47:59

If the sun rises

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

in the West,

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

if you're looking

00:48:06--> 00:48:07

to be living at that time,

00:48:09--> 00:48:15

the sun starts to rise and the rest were finished. no forgiveness is accepted at that point.

00:48:16--> 00:48:20

This is one of the major signs of the ending of this world.

00:48:28--> 00:48:32

When three things that you will not benefit one with that

00:48:33--> 00:48:42

have not derived any good from his faith. Right sun in this case of setting the Antichrist and the beast of the earth.

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

another occasion he said Allah will accept the presence of anyone who seeks it before the sun rises.

00:49:01--> 00:49:03

I just wanted this to be brief.

00:49:06--> 00:49:09

To give you an opportunity to grab some sections on the topic.

00:49:11--> 00:49:12

This topic which

00:49:13--> 00:49:14

is vital

00:49:16--> 00:49:17

for every believer

00:49:20--> 00:49:22

to understand intellectually,

00:49:25--> 00:49:30

to accept as a spiritual principle applies in his daily life.

00:49:35--> 00:49:36

He constantly remembers

00:49:39--> 00:49:40

feeling

00:49:42--> 00:49:44

sorry for the air that he does.

00:49:49--> 00:49:53

Stop stopping wherever you realize this is wrong.

00:49:55--> 00:49:56

Turning back to a law

00:49:58--> 00:49:59

and strategy with

00:50:00--> 00:50:02

Yep knows not to repeat that.

00:50:05--> 00:50:05

I should add

00:50:10--> 00:50:11

that into the statement

00:50:13--> 00:50:15

that Islam erases What

00:50:18--> 00:50:19

if a person becomes

00:50:22--> 00:50:24

a non Muslim. In fact,

00:50:26--> 00:50:31

she decided to choose Islam at a point in time or having been a nominal Muslim.

00:50:32--> 00:50:36

That is a Muslim, written in his passport or his identity card.

00:50:38--> 00:50:42

And realizing that this was not the slide when they need besides the CD slot,

00:50:44--> 00:50:45

these individuals who

00:50:47--> 00:50:49

enter into a slot

00:50:50--> 00:50:55

that eautiful righteous do have enter into this lab

00:50:56--> 00:51:01

erases the sins that came before him, except rules

00:51:03--> 00:51:06

which involve the properties of others.

00:51:09--> 00:51:10

If you

00:51:12--> 00:51:13

robbed the bank,

00:51:15--> 00:51:21

and somewhere along the line, you decided to accept Islam, but you still have the sash.

00:51:22--> 00:51:23

You cannot accept Islam and

00:51:26--> 00:51:28

continue on with your stash.

00:51:30--> 00:51:31

You have to return that money

00:51:36--> 00:51:42

involves the faculties of others, that acceptance or repentance will not take place unless you return

00:51:45--> 00:51:48

to yourself and specialists in your house. Now you don't remember where

00:51:54--> 00:51:57

learn this material that you have

00:51:58--> 00:51:59

to give away to

00:52:01--> 00:52:02

the poor people when

00:52:05--> 00:52:09

you keep it knowing that this is a product of your past, then you've

00:52:12--> 00:52:13

got to get rid of it.

00:52:18--> 00:52:20

Stop here, two minutes before

00:52:24--> 00:52:26

anybody has any questions they'd like to ask,

00:52:48--> 00:52:50

had spoken about this massive

00:52:53--> 00:52:54

item.

00:52:55--> 00:52:59

He prohibited the sale of alcohol

00:53:01--> 00:53:04

prohibited the sale of data

00:53:09--> 00:53:11

the size of a practice

00:53:14--> 00:53:15

and

00:53:16--> 00:53:18

the measures earned by Fortune teller.

00:53:20--> 00:53:21

The general principle

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

if you have,

00:53:24--> 00:53:28

for example, a lot of you like to collect artifacts

00:53:29--> 00:53:34

you bought from Buddhism, as idols and stuff right? You become a Muslim,

00:53:35--> 00:53:38

it is prohibited for you to sell these items

00:53:39--> 00:53:48

as a result of some material, either methodology, you know, utilize the value of that material. And that's another situation. However, to solve it, I

00:53:49--> 00:53:50

you know,

00:53:53--> 00:53:57

accepted Islam and you found in your house, somebody

00:53:59--> 00:54:00

bought some of the best

00:54:02--> 00:54:06

effort down the drain. You can even give it away.

00:54:14--> 00:54:14

Musical

00:54:15--> 00:54:17

the musical instrument is

00:54:22--> 00:54:29

when we talk about the charts of ABCD instruments which involve windows and stringed instruments

00:54:30--> 00:54:30

to clarify that

00:54:32--> 00:54:33

there's instruments

00:54:34--> 00:54:35

you cannot sell them

00:54:38--> 00:54:39

and you can't give them away.

00:54:42--> 00:54:44

If you did it before you ask the question.

00:54:47--> 00:54:50

You ask the question. You can do it.

00:54:58--> 00:54:59

The third is me.

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

That

00:55:02--> 00:55:03

difference

00:55:04--> 00:55:05

is different

00:55:06--> 00:55:09

for needy people and you can pass it on to others.

00:55:10--> 00:55:11

But we

00:55:12--> 00:55:13

will be talking about

00:55:14--> 00:55:16

several of these items

00:55:18--> 00:55:26

especially the one which corrupts the society corruptive influence grows beyond the individual

00:55:28--> 00:55:29

it is private

00:55:31--> 00:55:31

money

00:55:33--> 00:55:35

that means we are losing this money

00:55:36--> 00:55:38

this record now you know

00:55:40--> 00:55:42

if you destroy these records

00:55:44--> 00:55:44

the money

00:55:47--> 00:55:49

the value of the assets you have

00:55:50--> 00:55:53

has been in a barrel

00:55:56--> 00:55:58

good deeds have decided to sign

00:56:09--> 00:56:18

around the senate itself, because you can just record which has material that you're allowed to record for is a neutral instrument

00:56:21--> 00:56:27

like a television or video these are neutral instruments, they become haram when you put certain things on them.

00:56:30--> 00:56:38

Say for example, because, you know, there's not too much allowed for prolonged use of these instruments. So if you keep it and be tempted to put some harmonics again,

00:56:41--> 00:56:44

which is okay because so the instrumental analysis is not

00:57:05--> 00:57:17

to get rid of this is a session for those who have inherited Repton. If a person has certain things of practical nature, like clothes, you know, they weren't into the practical things.

00:57:19--> 00:57:27

These things have to be that you're wearing something which is haram. It is the property of others, if you don't know who to

00:57:29--> 00:57:30

take it back to the

00:57:32--> 00:57:33

agenda.

00:57:35--> 00:57:38

We'll give it to some needy peoples you know, it's such a dense

00:57:52--> 00:57:53

money

00:57:55--> 00:57:58

on the right side of that money before.

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

If we owed money, especially medical debt, which involves depth of interest, being of interest, etc. Prior to Islam, we come into Islam these debts are still honored. Now, if your Muslim is obliged to fulfill his words,

00:58:19--> 00:58:22

this is a contract we assign the lease manager

00:58:24--> 00:58:49

we should prepare this contract that we're going to vote on, on on ads, we should we have to get permission from them because this money that we're going to use as money which actually belongs to the people who are the victims, before we can use that money for acts of worship, to get the permission to do so. Okay, go ahead because you have your plan, you're going to pay them up to source and they say okay, fine.

00:58:51--> 00:58:54

But you have to get the permission otherwise that money is for you to use and

00:59:01--> 00:59:06

some people are saying that if you're taking the internet, you can take it, give it

00:59:19--> 00:59:20

well, you know, Prophet Muhammad

00:59:22--> 00:59:24

had said that four people

00:59:25--> 00:59:26

are cursed.

00:59:27--> 00:59:30

Equally in the

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

adventure.

00:59:36--> 00:59:41

One receive one who writes the contract and one who witness

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

one.

00:59:50--> 00:59:51

We see that

00:59:53--> 00:59:57

whether you keep it or you give it to somebody else, you have received it.

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

You know, I've heard this rationale and there's a number of people.

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

Among them

01:00:11--> 01:00:13

is that rationale of logic?

01:00:15--> 01:00:27

Why should we leave this money in the bank that is using it to support the World Council of Churches, which is spreading Christianity and our Muslim brothers and they're supporting Israel and

01:00:29--> 01:00:39

this is logic, Russia. Now, Allah says that those who refuse to use with the principle

01:00:40--> 01:00:41

Allah has declared

01:00:43--> 01:00:45

and you're going to come out with logic.

01:00:46--> 01:00:47

This is a serious

01:00:48--> 01:00:49

issue.

01:00:50--> 01:00:52

If we have been prohibited,

01:00:53--> 01:00:56

surely in the time of the Prophet Muhammad, our fellow

01:00:58--> 01:01:04

dealers, which involved the Jews and others, for this alliance was not given,

01:01:05--> 01:01:07

we were commanded to give

01:01:09--> 01:01:17

the names of the leaders we set our principle, we are not oppressed and we do not oppressed.

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

This is

01:01:22--> 01:01:27

this is what is clear, is clear. The hierarchy

01:01:28--> 01:01:33

between them is that shaded area not really known except to

01:01:38--> 01:01:39

show the area

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

as protected his religion and his honor,

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

the river falls into the Schengen Area, he saw this, eventually

01:01:51--> 01:01:58

he says in the intro, you're giving it to the party, he keeps collecting the interpret giving up to be fair, but then

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

he goes to these

01:02:07--> 01:02:09

two to following clearly incidences.

01:02:12--> 01:02:14

So, in my opinion,

01:02:16--> 01:02:17

which is the opinion of many

01:02:19--> 01:02:20

that

01:02:22--> 01:02:36

have the interest in giving it to others without the intention of seeking the word from the last word or using it to make fights for the masjid or you know, things which are considered abnormal,

01:02:37--> 01:02:40

this does not change the fact that we have taken the country

01:02:42--> 01:02:51

and the paragraphs on them I said such a person is first. So, better for us to protect our religion and our honor. And

01:02:52--> 01:02:53

avoid

01:02:59--> 01:03:01

with so many you know,

01:03:02--> 01:03:06

institution with a consumer interest payments, how do you cope with that

01:03:10--> 01:03:12

you have to fulfill

01:03:14--> 01:03:14

that

01:03:16--> 01:03:20

you should not be offering any desaturate garbage in garbage out.

01:03:22--> 01:03:23

Bottom line is

01:03:26--> 01:03:35

if you have to put yourself into that situation, when you try to extricate yourself as quickly as possible, because forgiveness means you've committed a major sin

01:03:39--> 01:03:44

the second major sin and he started off a shift

01:03:47--> 01:03:51

in what is in the third bag almost as

01:03:54--> 01:03:55

interesting

01:03:56--> 01:03:57

among the major

01:04:13--> 01:04:13

players,

01:04:24--> 01:04:27

but before the coming of the last hour

01:04:28--> 01:04:31

that a wind would come in it would take photos of all the believers

01:04:32--> 01:04:33

okay.

01:04:35--> 01:04:38

is not the end of the road, it is among beside

01:04:40--> 01:04:42

the point is that if you happen to have

01:04:44--> 01:04:45

access

01:04:46--> 01:04:48

to our statements from behind the scenes.

01:04:50--> 01:04:59

So we take it you know on the face value in terms of the actual order we know definitely before the end of the world this is where the thickness or the rising of the sun fruit

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

Coming up

01:05:36--> 01:05:37

that nature,

01:05:38--> 01:05:40

I would say islamically, you should

01:05:43--> 01:05:45

know, that which was clear

01:05:48--> 01:05:49

corruption

01:05:51--> 01:05:56

in terms of the individual who says that we don't follow hobbies.

01:05:59--> 01:06:04

That's an individual, in my opinion is one who's saying I don't follow the similar.

01:06:05--> 01:06:07

I don't follow the suit a lot.

01:06:10--> 01:06:13

Because the signal is conveyed through heavy,

01:06:17--> 01:06:21

heavy denial, and he denies the Sundance.

01:06:22--> 01:06:25

And when he denies the IDS in the cinema,

01:06:26--> 01:06:33

he is also he's also heading for the fraud, because the same people who brought the heavy

01:06:34--> 01:06:36

actions of the populace to us

01:06:40--> 01:06:42

and this is why you fall in like a shadow

01:06:43--> 01:06:44

in America,

01:06:45--> 01:06:50

in this idea of 19, being the miraculous numerical miracles,

01:06:51--> 01:07:09

you know, which became popular for a while, until you started to claim that some of this 19 and the multiples of 19 was able to calculate the day of yomo Fiamma when it was coming. And people started to wonder about it. Then from there, I started to deny the sooner not to deny recently, any claim that they were fast versus in the

01:07:12--> 01:07:17

past and the last is that he was killed.

01:07:36--> 01:07:37

Now, you know, if he didn't

01:07:39--> 01:07:43

allow you, to him seeking His forgiveness,

01:07:44--> 01:07:45

a lot of

01:07:47--> 01:07:54

attention is murky in covering up for that person to demand judgment because he or

01:07:56--> 01:07:58

she didn't say

01:07:59--> 01:08:06

Okay, can you do this is a necessity for you to obtain a license? So,

01:08:09--> 01:08:20

the point is that, you know, the deeds advisor attention is where that process is valid here. You turn back into serious attention swimmer swimming and that is forgiveness

01:08:21--> 01:08:25

will cover for you under their judgments, you will be absolved of

01:08:30--> 01:08:32

censorship mentioned right.

01:08:34--> 01:08:37

There are some errors that you may have committed,

01:08:39--> 01:08:40

which are assets.

01:08:43--> 01:08:49

That for you to tell your brothers will create a bigger problem that are really

01:08:54--> 01:08:54

areas of

01:08:58--> 01:09:08

looking at this principle, have suggested that if discipline which comes from eternity is greater than what you found by seeking His forgiveness,

01:09:10--> 01:09:15

you know, he turned to allies to forgiveness, protection on the Day of Judgment.

01:09:22--> 01:09:23

Okay.

01:09:25--> 01:09:26

We're on the bridge of the

01:09:30--> 01:09:31

Sharma

01:09:32--> 01:09:33

can become bigger

01:09:35--> 01:09:35

than

01:09:37--> 01:09:48

we like the Lord to give us the spirit and the desire to turn to Him in repentance whenever we commit.

01:09:50--> 01:09:57

Give us the courage in the strength to turn back to our brothers and ask for their forgiveness when we compare it against them.

01:09:58--> 01:09:59

And we are to ask

01:10:00--> 01:10:04

To strengthen our faith and to allow us to die as believers
