I'll say this a lot in the last piece, invest in Indiana glass on the federal level.
And then algos and follow the path of righteousness,
until the last day
of
this afternoon's presentation
is that of salvation and repentance.
And this topic
is not often talked about
in
Muslim circles.
Many of us who come from different backgrounds, familiar with
the idea of salvation,
essential to Christian
theology.
Why according to them, God became man
to die
for man's salvation. So it's a very central principle
in Christianity,
essence of
Jesus being God,
and Jesus becoming an object of worship.
In Islam actually,
without proper salvation is also
a very important
concept, very important
principle,
which is
the principle of repentance,
from Christianity, in that
retention,
we have no
intermediary,
no one can save us,
salvation is in our own hands.
So, the principle of retention
and salvation
is fundamental to the system.
human weakness,
possibilities for men to become perfect,
we have been given certain
responsibilities
along with the blessings is allowed, as bestowed on us as human beings.
However, the fulfillment of these responsibilities
in the fullest sense,
complete you
will have
created us
and one of the consequences of
our
human failings
has provided for us
a route by which we can atone for the failures
provided for us
to salvation
through repentance from these
which are inevitable for us to commit
when we
utilize forgiveness
and Allah is merciful to us
attribute of being the most merciful
manifest
that is this quality of commitment.
And repentance
means his allies chosen
and he could take any means that he wishes
for the manifestation of his message
I'm not saying that
as a philosophical point
that this is actually based on the statement of Mohammed
was, he thought that
if mankind didn't come,
a lot would have destroyed mankind
and replace them with another people who
turn back to alive the sentence. And he was
on the words of the Prophet Muhammad,
when we look at the story of Adam,
and Eve,
the essence of that story
is one,
repentance and salvation.
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,
and who he represents,
what the error was, and what the tree was, etc, such that these interpretations are not found in the teachings of the Prophet Elias
and as such, we should avoid them.
Believe that Adam and Eve were the first two
we can see
that alarm provided them with certain knowledge
or human weaknesses,
disobeyed
a lot provided them with knowledge of how to attain salvation,
asking his forgiveness.
And he
became the first
among men,
when he was usually the first of

there was no original

inherited in any way
the essence of the story is there for us to learn,
turn back
and this is very, very important for us as Muslims,
if we do not
make it a regular part of our life,
other acts of worship we do like
fasting,
we make it a purpose regularly seeking allows forgiveness.
Then he tries to become hardened,
committed so many errors,
forgiveness and as such, we fall into the
transgression
and he will.
So it is a principle which is really essential for us to maintain and to develop our spirituality
Principle of committing errors
and seeking repentance for the errors.
This principle is from human development.
As we know, it does not move, for us to turn to him.
It is we who needs to turn to him.
Allah has placed this principle in our lives for our benefit
whereby we as human beings, when we commit errors,
and we realize these errors
and we turn that to a law,
sincerely His forgiveness, then we become better people.
This is a process of
the fastest of the spiritual development of human beings.
And the more he turns in repentance,
the better person he becomes
Adam,
Adam descendants are
continually committing errors, the heart of hearts are
the death and those who commit these errors are those who turn back frequently to allow repentance.
This is a principle
that we need to be turning back to allow
sincerely
protection of
our spiritual development.
When we talk about repentance,
seeking forgiveness,
common
common people tend to think of it in terms of saying
I seek
forgiveness from you.
And those become
bad then on the fingers.
With accounts
when people will be
almost nervously going through this
finger movement, a rapid finger movement

But we need to stop
is this really of any benefit to
the elderly?
Whatever we say allows phrases it should come from our heart
and it may involve our fingers.
But it should come from our heart
should come with reflection
being conscious of what we're saying.
And it can have a real effect
after looking over
many of the various sets from the Quran and the Sunnah.
Some scholars have identified
certain conditions which are necessary
for repentance to be truly sincere and acceptable.
These conditions are found within the text of the violence.
Things made
by certain
individuals who consider themselves to be spiritual
Lots of people around change boxes.
They can look at you and see what your problem is. And they will tell you what you need to do.
And we have people like that. So what I'm speaking here now is things which are not spoken about.
The Prophet Muhammad, Allah has identified as necessary
to achieve
acceptable to Allah.
The first principle is that we should remember,
it should involve the remembrance of Allah.
Because, in essence, all of the worship that we do, every act of worship that we performed, it is ultimately
to develop in ourselves, a consciousness of a law,
it is for the remembrance of Allah.
We find this in the description of fasting,
describe it for us, as we did before
you may become
conscious.
A lot also speaks about follow
up in this fella

various acts of worship,
factor,
foundation.
Why because it is in the remembrance of Allah, that we become righteous individuals.
It is when the forgetfulness of Allah that we stray,
because Islam once or once from us, licenses
us to become righteous individuals, then we have
to develop in us, this consciousness of God because if in fact, the efforts of
the consciousness of Allah
which makes us do good
even though we may feel
that

We do our best
not because we're trying to put on a show for the supervisor or boss
work syndrome where and people are hard workers, whenever the
supervisor from the working life is
born and you see them fall back into
work.
Because you know, if you signed a contract,
that he will do
so much.
So much, then for him not to do that. And that money is

said about the individual.
He does his best
he committed himself to because of his fear of Allah.
This is what separates us.

Remember remembrance of Allah
speaks to this factor.
He says
For

and immediately asked forgiveness.
We're coming arrows when they do serve.

they turned back to a law seeking is
when we turn back to allow
to impress anybody.
We're turning back
because we have remembered him and
collected in Ohio

against them in public for acclaim.
When we turn to enough, we don't do so
to impress others
to show others how pious we may be.
This is why

Unfortunately, most of us
miss this opportunity

when there is no one to impress
the second principle
is that immediately
you don't come in
and then you wait.
And you wait.
Before you turn back to Allah
you commit the sin
Do you enjoy the the pleasure which comes from that for a while until it wears off and then you decide okay, now

No sincerity. This is why

Actually what we do
when we delay
besides the fact of enjoying the pleasure,
we are in fact
that we know the future
that you will have time to turn back.
And in fact,
you don't know when you're going to die.
So we should never keep
coming back to
you later.
Because we have no guarantee
to speak of loss.
Something really, really important
to think about
how many times you come up with an error and we just keep on going.
The third major principle is that the sufficient

Stop immediately.

And continue to do the same

you're become

Okay, go ahead because you have your plan, you're going to pay them up to source and they say okay, fine.
But you have to get the permission otherwise that money is for you to use and

We see that

You know, I've heard this rationale and there's a number of people.
Among them
is that rationale of logic?
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
this is logic, Russia. Now, Allah says that those who refuse to use with the principle

This is a serious
