Oh,
ah,
WA Allah yakulu and Noel did Allah subhanahu says in the Holy Quran,
but shaytan, Your rajim, Shah ru Rama, Lady unzila fil guru and are
now fasting in the
month of Ramadan. Allah says, In the Quran shahru, Ramadan, the
month of Ramadan is the month wherein Allah has revealed the
Quran. Allah,
the Quran was revealed in the month of Ramadan
on Laylatul Qadr, the Night of Power. And this particular night
Allah has given only to this
ummah because of the greatness of the Quran, Allah has given us
every year there's one particular night in the month of Ramadan that
is considered to be better than 1000 months, more than 83 years.
So whatever you do in that particular night is considered by
Allah. Allah will reward you the Day of Qiyamah, as if you have
done good deeds for more than 83 years. Allah Akbar
would only nurse. Allah says in this Quran that we've revealed in
The Man of Ramadan is a guidance for all of mankind,
a my beloved ones,
if hamu Kalam, Allah Jaidyn, please have a good understanding
of the words of Allah
badama, Amaran abhisheya after Allah has commanded us to fast the
Mandarin. And Allah explained that the reason why I've made the
fasting compulsion in Mandarin Allah so that you can become of
the mudkin the best people. Allah wants all of us to be of the best
people, the people of piety, people of Taqwa.
And then Allah mentioned this Ayah shahru Ram Lady unsilafield Quran,
to confirm
that it is impossible to become of the mutaki, if you are not
connected to the Quran Allah
Now, please let us follow again, because this is a crucial point.
Allah says, Yay. Bahala Kumar, kuti Baal and LADEE namin
kablikum, la Allah, kung tatakun,
and then soon after that, Allah says, shahru, Ramadan, Al dahi un
silafi Quran. The month of Ramadan is a month where in Allah has made
that Allah has revealed the Quran to make sure that we understand if
you.
Want to become of the mutakim, you must be connected to the Quran.
Listen to what Allah says right at the beginning of the Quran,
immediately after Suratul, Fatiha, Allah says, alif lamim, Dali Kal
kita Abu la rebafi, Udal, Lil utqim A
this book, this great book,
there's no doubt in the book of Allah. And
then Allah says, and this book is a guidance for the people of
Taqwa.
Look at the connection of the Quran. And if you want to become
of the mutakim,
my beloved ones, the Quran, being the word of Allah,
is the most precious book on the face of the earth.
It is worthwhile to repeat that statement. The Quran is the word
of Allah, and it is the most precious book on the face of the
earth.
It is more valuable than anything else in our possession, in our
possession. Sometimes there's something that is something that
is something valuable, but it's not in our position. It belongs to
somebody else. But the most valuable thing that Allah has
given us
in our position, in our position, is the Holy Quran. It is the
message and the official communication between Allah and
us. The official communication, communication directly from Allah
to us.
That's ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala and yahuwahna,
the taqsirina wa imali Nawa Al Quran Al Majid, my dear beloved
ones, we ask ALLAH SubhanA to forgive us and pardon us for our
shortcomings and our negligence
regarding the Holy Quran,
but this is the time,
and this is the month to change things around
the month of Ramadan is here for us to reform and to renew. So this
is the time. There is no better time to change things around where
the Quran is concerned,
and that we make that crucial decision,
to make more time for the Quran
and to show more love and respect and concern for the book of Allah,
I want
to
draw your attention
to a question that Allah is asking.
And Allah is asking the question to each one of us, to each and
every
Muslim. Isn't
it time for the believers to connect their hearts with the
Quran?
Listen to the words that Allah is using the hearts, not only the
mouth, not only reading, to connect your heart. Isn't it time?
And how are we going to respond?
It will be, it
will be disrespectful not to respond to Allah.
You, My dear brother and sister, you must now see in your heart,
after you've heard the question that Allah has revealed in the
mandala to you and to me, you must now say in your heart, oh, Allah,
I am going to respond immediately. I am going to connect my heart
with the Quran Ya Allah,
that is proper respect
to Allah wa Allahu, the best of you is he who learns The Quran and
he who teaches the Quran to others, the best of you are those
who learn the Quran and those who teaches the Quran to others say,
Oh, beloved Nabi Muhammad,
furthermore, might be their beloved ones,
all males and females. You.
Young and old who are associated with the Quran, who are involved
with the Quran, who are connected the Quran,
are referred to as the family of Allah,
and they are referred to as the special servants of Allah, subhana
wa taala. And this, this is an honor
given to no other in the history of mankind Allah.
This honor
has not been given to anybody else, only to the ummah of
Sayyidina Muhammad in Salawa, salam, and listen to what the
nabili muhammadjit
ibn Ali lahina mean, a nurse, verily, from amongst mankind,
there are those who are Allah's family.
Kalu man whom, ya rasulallah, the sahabat in us, who are these
people, O Messenger of Allah and our beloved, Nabi Muhammad,
implied, whom,
ah waha satu, they are the people of the Quran. They are the family
of Allah Abu.
Allah, it is a known fact, Allah has got no family. SubhanAllah.
Glory be to Allah. Allah's got no children. Allah's got no brothers
and sisters. Asafir, Allah, Allah's got no mother and father.
Kumu Allahu, Ahad, Allah is alone. Allah is unique.
But just imagine the people that are associated with the Quran
and connected to the Quran and love the Quran and read the Quran
and memorize the Quran. They are considered to be the family of
Allah,
waha satu, and they are the most special people in the eyes of
Allah. This is not just another Jumaa. This is the Juma that you
must decide from today onwards, you're not going to waste your
time anymore. You are going to be connected to the Quran.
This is a crucial decision. Life is all about making the right
decision.
Gone are the days when we look at sports and so peace and films,
whole day and whole nights and no time for the Quran.
Our beloved Nabi Muhammad said, Yati Allah nurses
word in one A time will come. And my people, they will, they will be
on the one side of the world, and the Quran will be on the other
side of the world, far away. What does it mean? They've got no time
for the Quran.
Please. Muslims of South Africa get involved and associate with
the Quran in a serious way, in a determined way,
turn your house around
to a house of the Quran Allah.
Turn your house around to a house of the Quran.
Teach your children to love the Quran,
My Dear mothers and fathers and grandfathers and grandfathers and
mothers, did you realize that this is the advice of our beloved Nabi
Muhammad, one of the things that you need to teach your children
says Rasulullah. Teach him to love the Quran and teach him to love
Rasulullah, sallAllahu, alayhi wa sallam. Just imagine, just imagine
you have children that love Allah, that love Rasulullah and love the
Quran.
They don't love Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston and all these
singers. They love the Quran.
They can't go wrong.
It is your responsibility. It is your duty, and it is highly
possible. Children are beautiful. They have been born with a natural
instinct to love Allah.
They are born with a natural instinct to love Rasulullah.
They are born with a natural instinct to love the book of
Allah.
It is you, the parents, that's going to take them further
inshaAllah Abu Inshallah,
beloved mothers and fathers
and grandmothers and grandfathers. I always include the grandmothers
and grandfathers, because don't think that you are excluded. No,
you are the grandfather the grandmother.
The big father, the big mother.
You must also take responsibility. You play important role in the
upbringing of your grandchildren.
Grandchildren are naturally close to the grandparents. Wallahi,
so mothers and fathers and grandmothers and grandfathers make
sure that at least one of your children or grandchildren are
going to learn to become half Israel. Quran
bolanda Ali golden made a powerful and a profound statement. He says
every child must be given the opportunity to memorize the Holy
Quran Allah.
With the memorization of the Quran, Allah is going to protect
you. Allah is going to protect the family. Allah is going to protect
the community. The people in the Gaza in Palestine, please make dua
for them. But look at their understanding.
A few years ago. They say they came to teach their children, most
of their children to learn. Half is the Quran. You know why?
Because they say this is the understanding of the Quran. And
this ayah in particular, Allah says in the vikra wa in lahua
hafidun, we have revealed the Quran, and we will preserve the
Quran. The understanding is, if we are going to memorize the Quran,
and Allah is going to preserve
us, Allah,
Allah is going to preserve us
honorable brothers and sisters, this is my special appeal.
I want to say it with tears in my eyes. This is a special appeal.
Please support those people who teach our children the
memorization of the Quran.
Please support and help those children, young girls and young
boys that are memorizing the Quran, sitting whole day, spending
hours of the night to memorize the Quran. Be in their support. Yell
them, make dua for them, encourage them.
So the appeal is for each and everyone, if we are not harvestful
Quran, that we can play a major role,
and we yell these Harvey schools and these teachers and those
children within me that Allah must consider us also to be of the
family of Allah, because our concern for the Quran, our love
for the Quran,
I'm saying again,
all of us will not have this new Quran,
but we can support and help to make sure that our children are
going to memorize the Quran. They are the future leaders of this
community. Just imagine if most of our children become half the
Quran. What the community will we? Will we have in the future? Allahu
AK, and not only memorize the Quran. They live by the Quran.
They've got the character of the Quran.
Part of the special appeal is that we, we support,
we support the half institutions in South Africa, wherever they
are,
if, if the people of the Rasulullah says the best of you
are those who learn the Quran and teach it to others,
then we must make sure that these institutions must be the best
institutions. They must have the best of facilities so that these
children can become the best leaders for the ummah of
Sayyidina, Muhammad in SallAllahu, sallam.
So what must mean?
I also want to add
that one of our very successful institutions in Cape Town and in
South Africa is jabiya Tu Qura. And
I want to say in honor
of one of our great fathers of this community, Sheik Yusuf Buli,
who was the founder of Jamia to Quran
and Allah has honored him the reason, one of the reasons why
this school is so successful, because Sheik Yusuf bully at the
concern and the love and At the great concern that people must
read the Quran correctly. It was very strict,
and Allah granted Alhamdulillah that the institution that he has
established is one of the successful and most successful
institutions of of Cape Town and South Africa. Alhamdulillah.
So give your support to the institutions. Give your support to
Jamia to Quran. I also want to make note that last year we had a
pledge line for Jamia to Quran. I was part of the people on ITV and
this year, Inshallah, the 19th of July. Remember that date, the 19th
of July, after the tarahu Salah in Makkah, they will be again a
pledge line for Jamia to Quran. The appeal is to all South African
Muslims to support. Make it the support last year was very
overwhelming. We make dua that this year must be even more
successful. Inshallah, we
unfortunately, beloved ones, our time is almost out.
And remember,
soon,
very soon, Malakal moat is going to knock on your door and say to
you, your time is out. The time is over.
So may Allah grant us that we make this Ramadan the best Ramadan
ever,
because noone in the masjid young and old has got any guarantee that
you will be still alive the next Ramadan. So make it the best
Ramadan ever.
Watu muy illallah, and make sincere Toba to Allah.
Cry in front of Allah for our wrongdoings. Don't say, by the
way, I still love to believe ALLAH forgiveness. I ask Allah
forgiveness, and may Allah be Toba. No, ask with tears in your
eyes, Ya Allah, please forgive me. Ya Allah, for all my wrong doings,
I regret nothing too. I regret what I've done of wrong Ya Allah,
unto the word you are the most unforgiving you are the word you
will never refuse any repentance. And that is the truth. Listen to
what our beloved baby, Muhammad says, a term Ibu mean, dambihi,
kamalla, dambalahu, a person that returns and repents of his sins by
Allah, it is as if he has never, ever done anything wrong clean,
because it came back to Allah sincerely and our beloved Nabi
Muhammad says, kun Lumini Adam khadwa on wahayu Khata in natogun.
Each and every child of Nabi Adam makes mistakes and wrongdoings and
evil doings, but the best of them are those who return to Allah, the
Lord must mean, as you know, for the last 25 years, I remind you
that you are, if you are negligent with the Salah,
please come back to Allah.
Thank Allah that you are still here, just imagining Allah to take
you away for before today, and you will still neglect for the salah.
The famous Hadith that you know, I'm just reminding the NABI
Muhammad says, any person that leaves this world whilst he or she
was neglectful with the Salah, Allah, don't want to see you. The
devkiyama, Allah is not interested in all your good deeds. You could
have gone for Hajj every year.
You could have given millions to the poor. But because of your
negligence of the Salah, the Malaika will come and tell you and
speak to you, Allah, don't want to speak to you, and they will tell
you your your place is there with the kufar and with the words of
kufar,
I also
want to want to end off again. We haven't heard from Rasulullah for
a long time. The guarantee to the Jannah,
you know? And I repeat it every week, but Alhamdulillah, I'm
excited.
I'm very excited to say to you again, because it comes from the
best leader ever, our beloved Nabi Muhammad. Listened to Muslim, and
the words of Rasulullah are more valuable than all the money in the
world. Rasulullah says it manuli sittan Atman, guarantee for me six
and I will guarantee you the Jannah. Oh fu Ida had to carry out
your promise. The first one, ustuko, Ida had that to guarantee
for me you'll speak the truth that will be part of your guarantee to
the Jannah.
The third one, Rasulullah says, carry out your responsibilities. I
always remind my honorable brothers, one of your
responsibilities is to look after your wife, to honor your wife, to
respect your wife, to love your wife.
The fourth mana Rasulullah says, How have you do furujang guarantee
for me, you going to protect your private parts? You.
The first one, and that's a crucial one, because many of us,
we are victims only victims. We are perpetrators. Rasulullah says,
guarantee for me, you're going to lower your gaze. Don't look at
haram.
The * is easily available. There are so many
Muslims looking at *. Allow me to say, sis, astafir,
Allah,
in front of Allah, you're looking at *, and Allah is
looking at you. Rasulullah says, You guarantee for me you're going
to lower your gaze. You're going to protect your eyes from haram
that will be part of your guarantee to the Jannah Allah and
the last one, the NABI Muhammad, says, guarantee for me, you're
going to keep your family together.
Keep your family together. How can you not talk to your own brother,
your own sister, your own cousin, your own family, your own
neighbor, your own friend. No Jamaat al Asmaa. We are in the
month of Ramadan, the month of mercy, the month of forgiveness,
whatever you've done of wrong, 100 times, a million times, Allah will
forgive you. Why can't you forgive?
So you keep your family together. If you are prepared to forgive and
overlook, you keep your family together, if you've got the
correct understanding that all your family members, they are
human beings. They're not Malaika, they're not prophets. They are
like you, full of mistakes and wrongdoings. So forgive them. You
guarantee for me, you keep your family together. I will guarantee
you the Jannah. I will learn a regime
we end up with a peace of speech. Allah says in Quran, Quran Allah,
Jabal, Allah, raita, who has a
if we had to reveal the Quran and the mountains, you would have seen
the mountains crumble into pieces, humbling itself, crumbling into
pieces out of respect and honor and fear for the words of Allah,
watil Qalam fell Allah says, We give you these type of examples.
Allah give these up exam for us, la Allahu,
so that we can contemplate and ponder as mean so once again, may
Allah grant us a Ramadan Kareem,
a generous Ramadan, a Ramadan full of Khir in barakah. And may Allah
grant us, as we meet every week,
that we will meet in the Jannah and enter the door of Rayyan, the
one, one of the eight doors of the Jannah is only prepared for the
people, for the umbrellas. We have fasted the month of Ramadan,
rasulallah, Muhammad, Alhamdulillah, sir.
