00:00:21 --> 00:01:03
			sort of colloquialism respected viewers and listeners We begin by praising Almighty Allah for the
many favors Allah has bestowed upon us. We send salutations upon our beloved nivia Kareem sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam This is our last program for our Ramadan and the series that we have done May Allah
subhanho wa Taala accepted May Allah tala make it beneficial for you and I and we make dua that
Allah subhana wa Taala accepted and we can inculcate those things that we have been able to speak
about in here about in the month of Ramadan. We know that this has been a Ramadan like no other. We
have never ever experienced Ramadan like this. We are our normal activities in Ramadan going to the
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:47
			masjid for iftaar and tarawih Juma was curtailed. Now this is something that was not in our control.
And it is important for us that there are certain things that are not in our control. We leave it in
the hands of Almighty Allah subhanaw taala Allah knows the reasons we cannot completely understand
and fathom the reasons what we are supposed to do is to do the best under the situation that we find
ourselves in and we hope inshallah, that we have been able to do so it's always good when we do end
of something to end off with what Nivea cream sauce the man said in a hadith Allah man obaidul
hopefully what Raja Eman is suspended and Eman is between open Allah has mercy and fear between hope
		
00:01:47 --> 00:02:32
			and fear. The real cream sauce from one day came to a person who was on his deathbed and asked him
how do you feel? And he said yeah, Rasul Allah, I'm afraid of my son's pipe, but I am expectant of
Allah's mercy. Now via cream sauce can praise Him and said, No men, leaves this world with these two
qualities. But Allah subhanho wa Taala will grant him immunity from his fears, and will give him
what he expects. If the data was money one of our great scholars has made mentioned in one of his
books of Tafseer, when he said that wherever after Salat reads as far as the federal law stuff in
Alaska fetullah then does Alhamdulillah he breaks the back of Satan and the devil. Why? Because he
		
00:02:32 --> 00:03:13
			has combined these two things. He has combined fear Allah I perform salad, I'm not sure whether it
is going to be acceptable by you or not. I'm not sure whether you will be accepting it or not. But
at the same time, he is also thankful that Allah has given us the ability to do so. So we don't only
say as the far after salat, we also say Alhamdulillah, Allah could not Allah Allah could have taken
away that ability for us. But we in this particular way, we also sell 100 Allah because Allah has
given us the ability. And this particular aspect of fear prevents us from pride upon our ibaadat in
righteousness. We don't know whether Allah is going to accept or not. Therefore we have no right to
		
00:03:13 --> 00:03:59
			feel proud and arrogant with regard to our ibaadat. So this is one aspect with regard to the ending
of of anything, which is to end on fear that maybe our deeds are not worth your presenting before
mighty Allah. It inculcates humility, it doesn't allow pride and arrogance to get within us. That
also we have expectations of Allah subhanho wa Taala has mercy. The last two days we have been
speaking about Allah Allah has mercy. But in this regard, we also like to end off Ramadan in
expecting and that Allah has mercy and acceptance, there is no guarantee. But we expected why Allah
Allah says, in law law, you do a general mazzini and law never allows anyone's effort to go to
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:28
			waste. It's a Muslim. There's an amazing narration that it is said that Abu lahab because he
expressed happiness on the birth of Namibia, Kareem saw some he freed his slave girl who came and
give him the news. Because of that even because he is this time to the fire of janome as mentioned
in Surah lahab but because of this one small detail of his some form of liquid will be placed in his
mouth on a given interval.
		
00:04:29 --> 00:05:00
			If Allah could take that into account, why and we have this expectation, why won't Allah tala take
into account the striving of people who have strove during the month of Ramadan to keep fast to
return we make the LAO it may Allah subhanho wa Taala accepted in sha Allah and in this particular
regard is a very beautiful balance. You know Sufi tales tells us many great things. So she has sorry
Rama tulalip has made mention of this incident. And this incident is a person a very
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:43
			pious person used to get up every morning for tahajjud prayers. And, and after 30 years of
performing tahajjud prayers. Now these type of Tales could be real could be hypothetical to give a
lesson. like to share a lesson after 30 years One day while getting up according to his normal
custom to get up for tahajjud prayers. While he was making Wazoo he heard an unseen voice saying
that you're 30 years of tahajjud has not been accepted because it has not been performed in a
correct manner. So the person he continued making boo. The second day he heard the same unseen voice
telling your tahajjud has not been accepted. The third day he heard the very same voice, your
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:49
			tahajjud has not been accepted. So he continued, but the person who was pouring his water for who
said as
		
00:05:50 --> 00:06:07
			if Allah subhana wa Taala has not accepted your hatchet for 30 years. Why do you continue striving
to get up in the early hours in the morning? Why don't you just leave it as a lost cause and
continue? Why are you continuing? So given amazing reply, he said that
		
00:06:08 --> 00:06:33
			I can leave that door when there is another option to go to another door besides the door. Show me
another door besides the door for mighty Allah subhana wa Tada. I have got no door. So even if
apparently I'm rejected, I'm going to knock at the very same door again and again. And then Shadi
Rahmatullah Persian poet, then said, then voice came cumulus
		
00:06:34 --> 00:07:14
			nested can use map and digger nested that now the voice change and the voice said that worth your 30
years of paper it was not worth you have been accepted because it was not done correctly or for
whatever reason. But your statement today there is no one will see can no other door other than the
door for mighty Allah, because of us and Latinas except that you're 30 years of humanity. So when we
conclude, we also say Allah, whatever we had done, we had done it for your sake, it might not have
been worth your presenting in your court. It was done. There was no reason for us to get up in a
facility and then do our fast but because of a lotta less love, but because of the commands of
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:28
			Allah, and in this particular way, we do what has it Ibrahim Alayhi salat wa salam did after he
completed the building of the Kaaba when he said, No pinata coppermine Allah accept from us You are
all hearing and all seeing and you know, at the back of me you will find,
		
00:07:29 --> 00:08:13
			you know, a frame of surah to NASA. And I read this in the beginning of the of today's program, when
Kareem said a lot while he was telling me this verse in the surah was revealed to be occurring so
Muslim said that my mission seems to be coming to fruition, coming to completion. And Allah has told
me that on the end of a mission and an accomplishment and a coming to the end of something, I'm
supposed to do two things for some behind the Rebecca Westerfield praise Allah and seek the
forgiveness of Almighty Allah and cream sauce lemmings to recite this frequently after the
revelation of the surah Subhana Allah He will be humble he has the federal law to Winnie it is with
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:28
			this that we conclude inshallah the month of Ramadan May Allah subhana wa Taala forgive our
shortcomings in a lotta except a little bit of endeavors that we have done and crown it with
acceptance and success. Well hold on and reliability
