will not be like those who forget Allah in in the process he forgets himself. Howard, what life can they be for someone who forgets Allah, Who is neglectful of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And this is one of the tragedies of the Western civilization, that they're forgotten Allah. These, they don't remember law, they don't want to remember law, they can take it if anyone remembers a law, you know, has it marvelous and that we use Kitab Islam in the world, If only you could read that section only speaks about the harm of Western civilization.

00:17:24--> 00:18:03

Sometimes it can happen but waqia Matura there's a very important you know, incident, that level of humor in it, that a person was going to sell his horse go to Disney College Aleta and someone told him by so where are you going? I'm going to the Monday I'm going to the bazaar I'm gonna sell my house, buy say say inshallah, say inshallah, I'm gonna sell my house don't say I'm gonna sell my house isn't what you say everything inshallah everything inshallah, idea is the horse days the market people are selling the horse I will go and sell the horse day in the market, what am I say inshallah, on the way someone stole his horse. So there was nothing to sell. So, when he was coming

00:18:03--> 00:18:17

back, the person asked him and said, What happened? What happened? He said, inshallah, I was going, inshallah, my horse was also what me inshallah someone stole my horse and inshallah everything went finished. So then say inshallah,

00:18:19--> 00:18:29

inshallah, Shannon, and brothers, this word, insha. Allah is not only let me repeat it, it's not only to let the Jamaat go away from your house.

00:18:30--> 00:18:34

inshallah is, it's a motto. When the Fulani militia in

00:18:36--> 00:19:25

Iran de la casa de Illa, Yasha Allah, it's, it's our motto, I will not be able to do anything in the next minute, in the next day, except if Allah wills this inshallah, that we just say routinely, it makes it hits at our heart brothers, that nothing can happen in our life without color. So my brothers, this is a very, very important point devotee aspects with regard to Seeker let me just get it why why do we remember loss Hunter wattana you know this seeker is very important. It has many benefits. The more you love something, the more you will remember it. The more you love, love, the more you must remember Allah subhanaw taala And do you know what amazing thing is?

00:19:32--> 00:19:35

remember you, it comes in dreams

00:19:36--> 00:19:59

come towards Almighty Allah subhanho wa Taala a little while and that Allah will come to you more, you come to Allah subhanho wa Taala you know a hand spit letter will come through, you know, you come to a small hand and letter will come through the entire end. You remember that Allah in solitude, Allah remembering the gathering of the angels. First qurani The more you love Allah The more you will remember Allah subhana wa

It lightens every burden. It is immunity from default. It is immunity from hypocrisy. In Manasa, Tina Johar the owner Allahu wa hodja. Makati. Oh wait acabo de la strada, kombu Santa Yura una nurse. Well, una de la la kalila the munafo gets up for Salah leisurely, he remembers Allah very little. So, if you remember Allah in abundance it means you are not a hypocrite.

00:20:35--> 00:20:43

Because the hypocrite remembers Allah very little. If you remember line abundance, it is immunity from hypocrisy monaci Allah tala

00:21:04--> 00:21:44

Everybody to do? It is for the sake of Allah. Why do you keep fast La La Quinta takuan to fear Allah subhanho wa Tada. And then one of the greatest aspects My dear respected brothers, which is such an important thing zeker keeps us away from sin. One day, Omar, a theologian who was lost and he came to a cross, he was in a desert, he was going somewhere. And he found a person who has had many sheep, Homer started testing him and said, Give me one of your sheep. I'm hungry, I need it, I will give you something, you can go and tell your boss that no sheep got lost in the desert, it happens many times. It happens many times. So you can get whatever you want, I will get whatever I want. And

00:21:44--> 00:22:00

in this particular way, no one will bear no one will lose. You know, we see, you know, a win win situation, a win win situation. And he turned on and he said, find a law with a law in this whole situation. Find a law What about a law? So

00:22:01--> 00:22:12

as long as there are people like the sinners who remain steadfast, it will keep you away from sin because Allah is watching me, whether other people are watching me or not. And Allah, Allah

00:22:13--> 00:22:53

let me conclude with this point zeker of Allah gives us It means none of it gives us that contentment. Now, there are two types of contentment, it gives us serenity, it gives us tranquility. You see, there are two types of one to one was aspect I asked you for your concentration. There are two types of tranquility. One tranquility comes about because everything is going well in your life. So you've got a high standard of living, you are smug, you are arrogant, because of that. Your business is going well. You got a lot of wealth, you've got a lot of resources, you know, so you have a high standard of living, you have resources at your disposal, you have influence, if you

00:22:53--> 00:23:45

will, you have fame people talk highly about you, you even feel that Listen, I can continue this I can always spend money to always get these benefits. That is a type of tranquility, that in reality is short lived and false because Allah can pull the plug away. There's another type of tranquility and that tranquility comes that Allah is the one that controls every aspect of the universe. It happens with his knowledge and His justice. And whatever he is his decision, I will submit to it. Allah basically law he took mine your code that is the real tranquility. It is like if anything happens in Angkor Wat Alhamdulillah Allah, Allah, Allah, praise me to align all circumstances, that

00:23:45--> 00:23:52

type of it meaning, that types of satisfaction only comes with the remembrance of Allah, Allah the decree law,

00:23:54--> 00:24:10

with the remembrance of Allah will tell me Allah make us among such that we all the time, remember Allah subhanho wa Taala Remember, all your doors, mighty respect of others, you know these doors we sometimes take for life, when you start getting Bismillah Alhamdulillah
