The Sahaba Iran culture has impacted their personality and actions, including belief in Islam and the need for people to be aware of its negative consequences. The speakers discuss the negative impact of losing time and the importance of knowing and using one's own wealth before allowing others to use it. They stress the need to use one's time before death and fast before avoiding losing their eye. The importance of fasting and not giving up on one's obligations is emphasized.

			Hi, I'm Lila and Amata who understand you know, a few who will be here on a Toyota Corolla when we
learn him in surah and fujinami See? Molina de la la la la la, la la de la
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:38
			la la ilaha illallah wa la sharika wanna shadow Anna Muhammad Abu who are solo Salatu was Salam O
Allah, Allah Allah He was heavy woman da da e la Amity Ahmad brothers and sisters in Islam. Assalamu
aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato. Can somebody please ask the people across the road to just
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:40
			give us a bit of time.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:56
			allow for Allah speaks to us to know the Quran Allah says smilla rahmanir rahim for Lawson in Santa
Fe Illa la Vina amanu Romulus all he had with our solar hot water. Also, the sub
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:02
			very famous verse of the hood of Iran is revealed in Makkah.
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:06
			And
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:08
			it deals
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11
			with a question of time.
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:15
			And is highly narrated,
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:22
			which tells us that whenever two companions used to meet,
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:27
			whenever they completed the conversation, they would read through at a loss.
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:31
			And after reading certain losses, they would greet one another.
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:37
			And the reason they would read or recite was last
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:41
			was to remind each other
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:46
			of the importance of not wasting time.
		
00:01:47 --> 00:02:33
			That when that ended the conversation, whenever the end of the conversations they will remind one
another that whenever we meet and we talk about anything, it should be something which is
meaningful, should something which is relevant, something which is beneficial, not just idle talk
Sahaba didn't indulge in idle talk. It doesn't mean that the Sahaba Iran's or Salam were very dour
and sour people. No they were they were they used to entertain each other a lot the prophets of
Salaam like himself to take like themselves to be humorous to tell jokes. And so there's a harbor
used to be very humorous with the Navy so allowed us a lump. And Abdullah Abbas was asked about the
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:51
			the Sahaba you know, because the young people after the prophets day, they get the impression like
today that Sahaba never smiled. They never allowed the very serious people ready for Jihad and so
forth and so on. So they asked, you know, tell us about the companions of the Navy of Salaam and
after an Abba to say
		
00:02:53 --> 00:03:14
			we used to laugh and we used to laugh and we still laugh. Well Can he mono therapy to feel perugina
but the man the belief in Allah He made very firm. In other words, we never made jokes about by the
religion of our Deen and the prophets of Salaam like to laugh sometimes the Prophet laughs So, so
much that he could see his back teeth.
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:50
			So the nerissa salam and the Sahaba and he was a very loving husband as you know, we ran races with
his wife. So to say that the Sahaba were always very serious is to miss the point. The point is,
when they were serious, they were extremely serious. And especially when they were with one another,
and they shared their knowledge of the deen of Allah subhanaw taala which of course is the best
conversation the best conversation is to talk about the deen of Allah was final What are so what
after then is Allah swears by time
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:52
			Allah swears
		
00:03:53 --> 00:04:10
			by time in an instant internal office allows partner says manual always been the last manual always
be at a loss manual always be either thinking about the past either thinking about the future, think
about is money either thinking about things that worry him
		
00:04:11 --> 00:04:37
			and it causes psychological loss to him or puts him into a depressive state, etc, etc, etc. So that
is a loss of different speaks about we don't we don't consider time as the biggest gift which allows
us to handle it endowed us with inland levena. Ehrman allows one that says but those who really
believe in allows those who truly believe in allows
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:40
			those who love allows them
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:46
			to solve the heart and those who do good. Now today we have become very selfish.
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:59
			When we think about doing good, I think only about myself, my own liquor that I make my own sadaqa
that I give my own sheep corbon my own family I must look after and so forth and so on.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			That is not a Muslim
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:02
			is a Muslim.
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:14
			A Muslim is a person who is a man makes him transform his own life and the life of those people
around.
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:21
			A Muslim has not been put here for himself.
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:37
			If it was like that, the Sahaba would have stayed in Medina, Medina, there was no better place to be
than in Medina. We we cried to go to Medina, we cried to go to Makkah. When the province of Salaam
died, they packed their bags in the left.
		
00:05:39 --> 00:06:04
			We would have saved to be near the profits a lot. So no, they left. Why did they leave because they
Islam taught them and the Quran told them that they Islam must transform humanity, not even a
society that you imagined is useless unless you have this idea in your mind that I have to transform
myself. But that's not the end of the road.
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:09
			I also have to transform those around.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:16
			So that is when Allah Allah says, while I'm really sorry, hot
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:21
			in LA LA Vina Manu Whammy, Rosada and those who do good.
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:25
			And what is the best good that a person can do?
		
00:06:26 --> 00:06:35
			The best good that the person can do is to believe in Allah as he wishes us to believe in Him with
food or heat.
		
00:06:37 --> 00:06:46
			That is why he man and good deeds was put together. You can be good unless your goodness is based on
the character.
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:58
			So today people every man has his own faith. Every Muslim makes his own Deen every watsapp group as
their own faith their own way of of the
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:23
			and what is the general view today? Everybody's fine. Don't rock the boat. Don't judge other people.
Don't do this. If people come here to represent the Palestinians and they don't look like a Muslim.
And they don't sound like a Muslim. And they don't dress like a Muslim. Don't judge them.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:07:48
			What nonsense is this? Who judges allows around the law tells us how to judge and who to judge and
when to judge is indeed, we can't say that this Dean is now No, no, no, no, you can't you can't
judge people. What about your own wife with your own children in your own self? You're also not
going to judge you so if you like salah and people say she was mixer Are you saying you can't judge
me?
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:58
			Or your children that mixer and they say well Daddy, today you know, we told I mean we must be non
judgmental, we must not be We mustn't
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:34
			mean we now we you know feminism is now the verb you know we are now equal etc, etc, etc. This is
the general verb today and what do we do? We smile and we keep quiet. And I say this is the way the
dounia goes today. Otherwise you can upset our colleagues in the organization or in the group or
wherever we may find ourselves. Yet there is only one truth in LA Latina hermit. Inland Latina
Allah, Allah says except those who believe believe like what like, like 2017 in Cape Town now, like
it was revealed in the poor.
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:41
			And so the Quran was a meaningful,
		
00:08:43 --> 00:08:47
			relevant and transformative book
		
00:08:50 --> 00:09:05
			that was embraced in that fashion and manner by the Sahaba Allah him of salatu wa salam. And so they
transformed the world. And they made Islam meaningful. And they sacrifice which they made.
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:09
			We see the fruits of it every single day in the world.
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:11
			So
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:18
			today we, when we when we talk about time today,
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:24
			we use a narrative or a metaphor, if you like,
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:32
			or motivated, if you like, by the saying that time is money.
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:43
			Don't waste my time, time is money. As the clock ticks, it makes money and if I lose the time, I
lose the money.
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:46
			And we repeat this narrative.
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:49
			So if a child comes and says,
		
00:09:50 --> 00:09:54
			time is candy time is sweets. We will love that the child
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			will say no my child died.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:09
			Time isn't candy or sweets or chocolates all the time of playing all the time. Time is time is also
money, you must use your time effectively so you can make more money.
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:13
			And so
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:15
			today
		
00:10:17 --> 00:10:18
			literally
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:28
			everything costs money. Everything is a money equivalent, like time is a money equivalent today we,
we buy time.
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:30
			This
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:37
			This can't function without time without money, buying time, we buy time diamonds become
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:59
			a item that you can buy and you can sell and you can lose money you can lose time a lot. So this is
the wasted mind. It's about time. It's about time when we come to the Juma it's about time Shira
started late today. He's going to end late today, I was made work at such and such a time.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:06
			I must be at work at two o'clock. So it's next week, I'm not going to come here because it takes too
long.
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:31
			But if you had to go and see the doctor two o'clock, you'd have made an arrangement with your boss
to say, I'd be back at three o'clock. It's okay, I'll work the timing. But for Allah, what do we
say? No to lunk? So hon Allah. And yet, for a lot of us, for most of us, it's probably the only time
that we spend with Allah.
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:48
			How many excuses Didn't we make the time when we quoted our wives? With the time that we spent? How
many excuses did we make to our fathers, our mothers, our bosses, and whoever else was set up. But
we have to make an excuse for our laws.
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:52
			There we blame it on the shame
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:54
			and shame the poor Shaka just trying to
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:57
			do his duty
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:14
			to try and inspire himself in you with this great transformative Deen which allows for and is given
to us. So and this was the key metaphor, the key propellant for the Industrial Revolution, which
took place in, in Europe and, and and,
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:19
			and in Britain and north in the Middle East.
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:37
			But what was the what was the cry at the time? It was time is time is money. And what did they do to
foster that idea amongst the people, they create the technology to save time, they made things that
would save time.
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:45
			And the people that were at the forefront of technology were the Dutch and English.
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:56
			They were the forefront maybe in the 14th or 15th century onwards, that started with technology.
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:32
			And countries like Italy, and Greece and all these even Turkey, the great Ottoman Empire was left
behind because they did not venture into the field of technology. And today Italy is one of the
poorest countries in Europe. Still, what role did Italy take? Italy took the road of providing at
least the hedonistic needs of the Europeans, meaning Italy was the brothel of Europe.
		
00:13:33 --> 00:14:01
			That was what it provided all the niceties of life like Dubai and Abu Dhabi and all these places
today, they fulfill that role. Whereas the European countries, not all of them, but some of them
invested heavily in technology. And up to the day they are reaping the fruits of that technology.
And we're just talking about technology and what was the purpose of technology, it was to save time.
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:20
			So they made better ships to go to the east to get the stuff faster ship smaller, smaller ship. The
technology on the ships improved with a tenancy like these massive ships, which after, after a
while, they couldn't use anymore because it was too big technology was behind and so forth and so
on. And
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:34
			today, we have the most advanced technology in everything. You name it. If you can do it fast. There
is another guy around the corner who can do it even faster.
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:59
			And another guy in in Joburg can do it even faster. And if you talk about Germany, they can even do
it faster, and the Chinese can even do it faster. So it's always somebody outpaces the other one in
terms of saving of time. And so in our ordinary lives. the ironic thing about this is that the more
we develop in technology to make our lives easier and faster
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			Busy we become
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:15
			when you look at your morning, for example, now Jamal, you know exactly you were in Juma and you
know this is time spent well I hope so. But what have you done for the morning?
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:20
			Starting before Pfizer or maybe add further
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:26
			what is the account that you can give of yourself?
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:29
			Extra many of us will say now is busy.
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:34
			We asked people at the end of the day so what will you actually busy with?
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:38
			What do you actually wear today? We say Where were you?
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:44
			What were the nose busy man? What are we doing? You know, so many things I can't remember.
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:47
			So
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:49
			we have
		
00:15:50 --> 00:16:05
			we can move people and goods and information at the fastest speeds ever. Look at the Internet. I
mean, you know, I can talk to you now and somebody in England can listen to me in in what do they
call in, in real time?
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:08
			in real time, and
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:26
			we have more time now. Because of technology. We cannot put the food in the microwave. We don't have
to go and fetch water and make fire. But yet we still we spend less time eating now. Because we
don't have time to eat.
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:42
			Telling lies you know what I'm talking about? The least time is when airtime is another enormous
finished girl after dinner give me Tina
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:45
			so
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:55
			what we don't realize is that we have so much spare time which we waste we waste our time
		
00:16:57 --> 00:17:00
			How much time did we spend on social media
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:12
			all of us every day the whole day? Checking your your email inbox checking your watch whatever else
you busy on Twitter or whatever else and
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:14
			we
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:30
			waste our time on frivolous discussions we just read we want to respond also. I look at people I
look at look at some of the web or some of the watchers just want to read his every time he's there
and he always wants to know
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:40
			all this time we we do people get all this time from and talk about surfing the internet. I mean
really. So we are Allah has given us all this time.
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:45
			And we supposed to use it more effectively, we don't use it more effectively.
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:47
			So,
		
00:17:49 --> 00:17:50
			time
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:54
			is money
		
00:17:55 --> 00:18:00
			is not the metaphor that we must blame. Because now we have a lot of time.
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:08
			If we look at very quickly at early Muslims,
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:32
			you know we talk people talk about they say ah you know people in seventh century Arabia, they had
all the time you know, they relax that will that if everybody had four wives and they just lived in
a mud hut and they you know, just a date and drank water, you know, went to the masjid for Salah.
You know, that was their life and people in Egypt probably lived the same and probably people in
Baghdad and
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:36
			a quick comparison will tell us that
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:43
			those people were involved in intense military activity, armies went up from Medina America
		
00:18:45 --> 00:19:23
			to travel 1000s of kilometres. In order to take the Tao of allows Hamilton. It was a time of
heightened political activity. Islam established came broke out of Medina and Mecca to establish the
greatest civilization that man has ever known. Greatest in terms not only of its the fact that it
conquered other countries, but what it contributed in terms of science, in terms of writing, in
terms of justice, in terms of justice, the whole of human activity was re invented by Muslims and
given free to the world.
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:28
			And yet,
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:33
			those people could spend more time in worship than we will ever spend in worship.
		
00:19:37 --> 00:19:39
			They had four wives, they looked up to them.
		
00:19:41 --> 00:19:43
			They were warriors they fought.
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:49
			They were dicicco to Islam. And later on, they became writers they wrote books.
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:57
			And they didn't just I mean, I want to give you just an example. I mean, I want to talk about people
that you know, even Buhari wrote,
		
00:19:58 --> 00:19:59
			who memorized I mean, wrote
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:26
			memorized about 60,000 Hollies. And they had to travel sometimes for months to get to a person to
get one Hadith from him. There was no internet. Despite all that time that was used, they provided I
mean, factual body, which is the shadow, which is the commentary on human behavior is a highly is a
major work. That is still the major work on hudy
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:31
			explanation ever to be that in by anybody.
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:38
			He was the Chief Justice at the time of Egypt. And if we look at him, he hasn't been he hasn't was a
12th century.
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:46
			You wasn't even a philosopher, he was everything. He was an evolution scholar not referred to him
before.
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:54
			He was a fucky to such an extent that he established his own mother hub, this quality
		
00:20:55 --> 00:21:00
			the literalist Mother, Mother, which interpreted the deen
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:15
			not in terms of how we can explain it, but in terms of what is there you have to read the Quran and
not interpret you should just take it as it is. It was a great on top of that, he was a he was a
Doctor of Medicine. He wrote
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:26
			10 books on myths and books which will later use at the University of Paris to train European
doctors in the science of myths.
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:34
			He wrote about 100 volumes on Deen on Hades on Fifth on
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:37
			when people get the time from
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:45
			the imsi you know, these people had big beards and they were like sour people and they sitting the
whole day with just writing books and faith and so forth and so on.
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:51
			But he also wrote a book called Total human
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:56
			feel our love and attention this too before
		
00:21:57 --> 00:22:05
			to show you the balanced mind that these intellectuals had he wrote a book on takahama the ring of
the dove
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:27
			with called call the ring of the dove nine which meant what I said he created the mother, he wrote
100 volumes on Khurana sunan. Honey, the major work was written on the interpretation of honey. By
the way, there's no call to call Hannah, the ring of the dove will all fall on love and lovers.
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:35
			Can you take the band agneta mute expect maybe, you know in our time, you know only authors will
write books on love and lovers.
		
00:22:36 --> 00:22:59
			But the book wasn't when we when we of course when I mentioned the word love and lovers with the
news panel because we have a 20th century view a Western view of love and lovers. Nobody says
Alamosa lover yet so many ways Mashallah you loved all of them. We call him a lover isn't it it's
true love within the bounds of the Sharia of allows handle. Love allows omelet schools, Mohammed
salam wa
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:04
			have Ebola is the Beloved of a loss.
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:09
			And so there is love between me and you. There is love between me and
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:16
			my wife, my children, we all have this great need for love to share it.
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:24
			And our children today live in a different world with love mean *, to be very straightforward with
you.
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:30
			And this is sad, because we missed out on all
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:34
			a major part of our lives on the stuff.
		
00:23:37 --> 00:23:48
			And so this man had to write this book Why did you write this book in 12th century Spain? Because
the young Muslim people wanted to know what is love in Islam.
		
00:23:49 --> 00:24:05
			And he wrote a book to guide them as to what love and love is loving ease in the deen of Allah was
Hannah who thought they had time for that another argument of said, No, no, no matter but love and
love, I have to stick to my you know, the hadith of
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:10
			my chick and so forth. So
		
00:24:12 --> 00:24:24
			we as Muslims are not driven by the metaphor or the narrative of time is money. What drove the
Sahaba? What drove them? How do they interpret time they saw time as a gift from Allah.
		
00:24:26 --> 00:24:58
			His idea from Allah as a Namah from allows berhanu time the Amazon Web Services in a hurry and they
saw this gift as that which will determine the eternity in the after. Allah gave them this time for
them to use and the use of this time we'll determine how they will enjoy themselves in the aft. So
the Navy's hasulam says now mahtani bugaboo known FEMA. Nafisa Salaam says
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:06
			That there are two gifts which Allah has given to mankind which he
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:18
			wastes. Maybe it trivializes, maybe doesn't see the real value of a two gifts inshallah given that
we don't see the real value with
		
00:25:20 --> 00:25:30
			us they had to offer our services, health and free time, health and free time. And when are you at
the best of health when you're young?
		
00:25:31 --> 00:25:31
			When you're young?
		
00:25:32 --> 00:25:35
			And when do you have the most free time when you old?
		
00:25:37 --> 00:25:52
			So allow them to give you your health Yang so that now you can do all the things you have to do make
Attica because you have the strength to do it. Do all the go for Amara go for her. Don't wait till
you 17 when you die at 69 and you don't go.
		
00:25:54 --> 00:25:59
			Many people plan to go for hikes when they're old. And what have you done six months before you go
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:02
			in trouble Well last time.
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:07
			And for our free time, our free time.
		
00:26:08 --> 00:26:21
			Although older people have more free time, they have less energy. So you have to use your free time
in your old age with your energy levels which are lasala given to you. And all this is the harbor
did
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:25
			by
		
00:26:27 --> 00:26:41
			basing their lives on the Quran. So as I said in the beginning, the Koran for them was meaningful.
It was relevant, and it was transformative. It wasn't just a book of Baraka
		
00:26:43 --> 00:26:55
			or an easy book of Baraka, but it's not just the book of Allah. Allah says, What zero till 410
meaning for any mawashi for
		
00:26:57 --> 00:26:57
			the Koran
		
00:27:00 --> 00:27:18
			was sent. And in that karate is to be found. Shiva metzen a healing for you. And a mercy for you. In
it not Oprah and Baraka easy, but the major part of the Quran is that it is transformative.
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:45
			So time then the Sahaba thought like that. And they they realize they were bought in time, all of us
are born in time everybody's born at a particular period of time, everybody's got a birthday,
everybody even remembers and as much as you're born at three o'clock on Wednesday afternoon. So we
both in time, we live in time surrounds us all the time. And we depart
		
00:27:47 --> 00:27:51
			on time, not in time on time
		
00:27:53 --> 00:27:54
			we depart.
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:08
			So that is the ambit and the orbit of time as the have understood it and they knew that that on time
was going to come. The only people who could delay the death was who
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:11
			am we are in such law.
		
00:28:12 --> 00:28:15
			The only people who could say to Malik mode not now
		
00:28:16 --> 00:28:26
			was the MBR. And we know this the big story of Nabhi. Nabil musala salatu salam, when the angel came
to him, angel of death came to him.
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:34
			And the angel of death came to him because the angel of death was sent by Allah to take his roof. So
what he Moosa do,
		
00:28:38 --> 00:28:38
			famous Eddie,
		
00:28:43 --> 00:28:44
			he's an active.
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:53
			In fact, we had to hurry the other hand, he said he smacked him so hard is I came out.
		
00:28:55 --> 00:29:05
			So many people, they say no, we don't accept the Saudis. What is this? How can Moses make Malik
Moulton? How can I follow? Because we don't understand
		
00:29:10 --> 00:29:13
			the language of Hadi and even his own language.
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:17
			Any we as
		
00:29:20 --> 00:29:27
			21st century Muslims look at an event. That doesn't make sense. No, no, no, no, no. I think it's
extremely dangerous.
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:35
			And so I say to you, that being said, within the caddy, and the Hadith is interpreted again by
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:40
			Hazara as Kalani. The man who wrote
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:46
			the explanation of Sahih al Bukhari gives a beautiful expression of that but inshallah we'll do that
at some other time.
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:50
			So only the MBR could say no.
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:58
			jabril was sent to the nurses to ask him before Malik welcome say Allah say me to ask you you really
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:03
			To be the last one, but are we ordinary mortals?
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:05
			No.
		
00:30:07 --> 00:30:19
			So this harbor knew that what they did was the time was what they did what they lives. Time and life
is the same time is life. Life is time. And we serving the time.
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:27
			And it is said then that you must live while in the prison like you're used to seeing now. Yeah,
this is your present, you know where else?
		
00:30:29 --> 00:30:41
			So used to live in this moment, absorb this moment, learn in this moment, try and memorize and and
you can take your mind payments, when you know, I can't remember, you know, I can't No, no.
		
00:30:43 --> 00:30:54
			You must make the intention when you go from home that I'm going to go to Juma wherever you go. And
I'm going to remember, all the main things that the shack spoke about at the moment I spoke about.
		
00:30:56 --> 00:31:06
			So what are the characteristics of time? What is time we define time? What is it? First of all time,
we know goes very quickly. It's the only thing of time you know, it takes a buyer Whoa,
		
00:31:08 --> 00:31:08
			whoa,
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:14
			whoa, whoa, it goes so quickly that when somebody says to you, let's go, you say
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:30
			we will do an isolate, not guilty or guilty. But it tells us how much
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:36
			we put on salah and on time.
		
00:31:38 --> 00:31:45
			It's more about the time, then about the Salatu allows. Secondly, we must know that time doesn't
come back.
		
00:31:46 --> 00:31:55
			And thirdly, it is the most precious thing that we have. And I can tell you the older you get the
more realize how precious time is.
		
00:31:56 --> 00:31:58
			It's a very precious commodity.
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:02
			So
		
00:32:05 --> 00:32:12
			our attitude to time must be the correct attitude. If you want to purchase something
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:16
			what do you do you you use what?
		
00:32:19 --> 00:32:20
			bitcoins
		
00:32:23 --> 00:32:29
			you use money in the buys and you go to the shop to buy something. I don't think the shopkeepers
will accept bitcoins yet.
		
00:32:32 --> 00:33:05
			And if you want to do something, so you need the capital of unique financial capital to buy
something, whether it's a house whether it's a car with his brain with it, whatever it is, and if
you want to do something you have to use the capital of life. What is the capital of life, the
capital is life is time when you want to do something you need what time that is the capital of
life, that's the money of life. It is time allows Muhammad Allah reminds us of the value of time now
let's say is one pupil Mimara xakanaxa Allah says
		
00:33:06 --> 00:33:07
			spend
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:13
			of your money not
		
00:33:14 --> 00:33:20
			only save or spend your money I will never ask you to spend your money never ever in the forum's
Allah says pinjaman
		
00:33:22 --> 00:33:27
			What does Allah say? spend one merasakan spin of the money which I gave you.
		
00:33:31 --> 00:33:36
			So when you when you're a bit stingy, to give something usually
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:58
			it's not your money. You actually you actually you It's so easy for a Muslim to give. Why? Because
this is bad masalas money. It's so nice isn't as to give other people's money away. Your children
say that every day to you. Or you say that your child maybe they are very jealous. Or your wife your
husband my My name is Phil
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:07
			so you must have the same attitude unison Allah as money. Allah says, Why did you call me Morocco?
Speaker The Man Who gave you
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:10
			spend your money because when you came here no money.
		
00:34:11 --> 00:34:14
			So unless you spend the money which I gave you
		
00:34:16 --> 00:34:19
			mean public before policy? Public I
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:33
			mean, I had a couple notary before your time of death arrives. Because what will happen when you
lie, then you're dying.
		
00:34:34 --> 00:34:43
			You lie then you look at your air conditioner and you look at your downlighters all the stuff that's
upstairs, you look at the chandelier.
		
00:34:44 --> 00:34:45
			And you look around
		
00:34:47 --> 00:34:49
			and you double those claws, toes.
		
00:34:50 --> 00:34:52
			And you say to yourself, oops.
		
00:34:53 --> 00:34:57
			Barack Modi standing there defeated the beta knife to leave all this stuff behind.
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:08
			What do you say Allah? Allah says What do you say? Allah says, Allah Allah, Allah says what we say
what do we say? Robin? My Lord
		
00:35:09 --> 00:35:15
			Lola Hertha Nila jelly curry for Africa welcome
		
00:35:17 --> 00:35:35
			we say those of us who neglect to give charity always delayed delayed you know I'm gonna give
tomorrow first our nonprofit on this first I want to do this first I want to do that first I must
say to myself first I must say to my children, first I must see that that child has got so much in
that child's got the house and this childhood person then each other.
		
00:35:37 --> 00:35:39
			We will say then when we lie there
		
00:35:42 --> 00:35:44
			a certain era Kimmy
		
00:35:46 --> 00:35:48
			can Allah 10 minutes
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:56
			just my son is standing there, I can tell him that the money's there at the bottom row of the right
side.
		
00:35:58 --> 00:36:02
			Please imagistic without any means give it in charity now.
		
00:36:08 --> 00:36:11
			Allegedly me, I didn't carry me to two minutes.
		
00:36:13 --> 00:36:23
			So that I can pass up data so I can give charity. That's what he wants to do. He just wants a minute
from Allah give him an extra minute. So you can give the child
		
00:36:26 --> 00:36:40
			or maybe he can do something good, some righteous deed. Maybe he wants to say Subhana Allah. Maybe I
want to say Alhamdulillah maybe wants to say a statue but still it is tongue stick is mine is
probably going
		
00:36:42 --> 00:36:44
			he wants to make that word last righteous deed.
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:51
			So Allah gives us in this ayah the value of of time,
		
00:36:52 --> 00:36:55
			value of time. So when you have time,
		
00:36:56 --> 00:36:59
			especially people of my age,
		
00:37:01 --> 00:37:02
			you must use your time.
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:08
			And you know for you to say Alhamdulillah Subhana Allah, these are the things you can do now.
		
00:37:10 --> 00:37:17
			Maybe you can't get up in the middle of the night and make a hatchet or whatever. You don't have the
energy, but you should use your other time
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:22
			to use it so that when you lie on your deathbed and Malak Malcolm's
		
00:37:24 --> 00:37:29
			done my masataka I've done my liquor I've done what I had to do when I was alive.
		
00:37:31 --> 00:37:37
			So when we are when we get born, when we when our mothers give birth to us
		
00:37:39 --> 00:37:39
			what happens?
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:42
			A clock starts ticking.
		
00:37:44 --> 00:37:47
			clock starts ticking you one up, and it starts ticking.
		
00:37:49 --> 00:37:52
			But the clock is not ticking forward. This clock is ticking.
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:55
			backwards.
		
00:37:56 --> 00:37:57
			This clock is
		
00:37:58 --> 00:38:00
			counting down the time.
		
00:38:03 --> 00:38:04
			clock is not increasing your time.
		
00:38:05 --> 00:38:12
			It's not like well, it's not two o'clock. So you're looking forward to three o'clock. No, no, no,
no. Once that clock starts ticking, it goes backwards.
		
00:38:14 --> 00:38:18
			And then it is now a lot of times during the day of tiama.
		
00:38:20 --> 00:38:26
			We will not move from the position where we are standing until Allah has asked us for questions.
		
00:38:28 --> 00:38:30
			The first question Allah would ask us is about our life.
		
00:38:32 --> 00:38:33
			How we spend our life?
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:40
			The second question will be about our youth, how we utilize our youth What did we do it we weighed
down
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:43
			this equation is
		
00:38:46 --> 00:38:47
			about our wealth.
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:55
			And Allah will be not so much interested in how we spend our wealth. He will ask the first question,
how did you
		
00:38:57 --> 00:38:58
			acquire?
		
00:39:00 --> 00:39:01
			That's a more important question.
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:17
			Because if you acquire the world in a hollow manner, then the little that you gave Subhanallah is
very happy. But if you acquired your wealth in a haram manner that whatever you give is 00.
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:21
			Because the Nagisa Salaam said
		
00:39:22 --> 00:39:26
			in Allah nepata Fie, Fie Rue de
		
00:39:28 --> 00:39:42
			la tomato Nelson Hata Mariska Marisa Salam said that allows you to handle inspired me in my mind,
Allah sent a message directly to me and what is the message are listening directly to the Navy Salah
		
00:39:44 --> 00:39:58
			lanta Mouton, so no man shall die. no person shall pass from the dunya until he has consumed all the
resin which Allah has written for him when Allah created the heavens in the earth.
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:05
			goes when allowed to have a handle created the pin, the column
		
00:40:07 --> 00:40:14
			the pin RCR of whiteness I write in allows me to say the rights of every single person that I'm
going to create.
		
00:40:22 --> 00:40:38
			So whenever Hassan says that no man will leave this dunya until he has consumed all the result which
Allah has given to him, so do not seek your ASIC in a haram way, because it's there, you must fit
today in the United States, they must take it. So don't take a road to it, which is haram.
		
00:40:39 --> 00:40:43
			Because you will get it you won't die, don't worry, guaranteed.
		
00:40:44 --> 00:40:46
			Allah guaranteed it before you made the
		
00:40:48 --> 00:40:49
			the dunya.
		
00:40:51 --> 00:40:53
			And fourthly, Allah will ask about your knowledge,
		
00:40:55 --> 00:41:12
			or your quiet, acquiring knowledge, what kind of knowledge you acquired, and how you transfer that
knowledge, not only knowledge of the new kinds of knowledge, so if you have a secret in your
business, that you haven't transferred to other people, because you are afraid that other people
will get more recently.
		
00:41:14 --> 00:41:15
			Because we think like that,
		
00:41:16 --> 00:41:18
			this is business secret.
		
00:41:19 --> 00:41:25
			There are no such things as secrets, if there was anybody who would have kept a secret.
		
00:41:29 --> 00:41:34
			And the thing that he said on arafa tacos, he didn't have any secrets. He said,
		
00:41:36 --> 00:41:37
			Oh Allah.
		
00:41:38 --> 00:41:52
			He said to the people have Bella, have I given you the message three times he said, Have I given you
mommy give me am I giving you the belajar. So as of course you've given us every single thing which
Allah gave you gave to us.
		
00:41:55 --> 00:41:56
			So hello.
		
00:41:58 --> 00:42:03
			And then me Sanchez. And so when we look at life, and we look at time,
		
00:42:05 --> 00:42:05
			there are five
		
00:42:07 --> 00:42:17
			opportunities that we have to grasp before it overtakes us. The first is, we have to make use of our
youth before our old age,
		
00:42:18 --> 00:42:22
			were to make use of our health before we get sick, and you're definitely going to get sick.
		
00:42:24 --> 00:42:26
			Some people don't even get sick, they just fold it.
		
00:42:28 --> 00:42:31
			We ask a lot of diversity, so that we have time
		
00:42:33 --> 00:42:51
			and time to do the good inshallah. And use your wealth effectively before allows Pilate Allah takes
it away from you. And you may say, Well, and if Allah doesn't take it away from you, Allah will take
you away from you.
		
00:42:53 --> 00:42:54
			So either way, you're going to lose your
		
00:42:56 --> 00:43:00
			eye when you give it away, politics away from it, and
		
00:43:01 --> 00:43:05
			use your life effectively before your death comes.
		
00:43:06 --> 00:43:09
			So believe it or don't have the slogan of we kill time.
		
00:43:14 --> 00:43:18
			We then have this thing about over a couple of minutes is a couple hours,
		
00:43:19 --> 00:43:29
			skill time. But what I've seen now doesn't diminish the fact that men is in need of entertainment
and realization.
		
00:43:32 --> 00:43:33
			It's a bit of relief, isn't it?
		
00:43:34 --> 00:43:37
			Because anything gold mines a ship is now putting us into
		
00:43:38 --> 00:43:46
			now even just we must have like the parentheses I'm doing my time. This is like a prison. No, no,
no, no. There's time for everything.
		
00:43:48 --> 00:43:57
			This time for everything, provided the everything that we do is within the ambit of the Sharia of
Allah, this panel.
		
00:44:01 --> 00:44:02
			So a very
		
00:44:04 --> 00:44:05
			intelligent man. He said
		
00:44:07 --> 00:44:08
			that when we are born
		
00:44:11 --> 00:44:13
			an account is open for us.
		
00:44:15 --> 00:44:30
			You know today parents are like this, oh, I must open the counter. My child is born now. You know,
I'm Mr. Carter, a unit trust for my child. I must take out insurance mistake, educational policy.
And all these things. It's all good. I'm not saying it's wrong.
		
00:44:32 --> 00:44:44
			But when you get born allows for Halton opens an account for all of us. every Jew on this earth,
every Christian, every Muslim, every atheist, every feminist every whatever it may be, an account is
opened.
		
00:44:47 --> 00:44:49
			It is called an account of time
		
00:44:52 --> 00:44:53
			and imagine
		
00:44:58 --> 00:44:59
			you open an account at your bank
		
00:45:03 --> 00:45:04
			Every morning
		
00:45:08 --> 00:45:10
			the bank put into your account
		
00:45:11 --> 00:45:14
			86,400 grand.
		
00:45:15 --> 00:45:20
			So you go to the bank, the manager smiles with you says, Mr. familien. He
		
00:45:21 --> 00:45:25
			says, Don't worry, I'm going to put in your account every day at 6400.
		
00:45:30 --> 00:45:34
			And you when the bank closes,
		
00:45:37 --> 00:45:40
			you you're not allowed to have a balance in the account.
		
00:45:44 --> 00:45:45
			Isn't that nice?
		
00:45:46 --> 00:45:54
			What does it mean? It means the managers, you must necessarily spend all that money if you don't win
it, your account goes back to zero.
		
00:45:57 --> 00:45:58
			Nice, isn't it?
		
00:45:59 --> 00:46:09
			You have no Magno deposits, you make no deposits, there is the account at 6200. And an account is
painted as you want no overdrafts,
		
00:46:10 --> 00:46:12
			you might just spend it.
		
00:46:14 --> 00:46:19
			And at the end of the day, counters cancel new accounts starts the next day, again that is put in.
		
00:46:21 --> 00:46:23
			So what will you do with that money
		
00:46:24 --> 00:46:29
			to spend at all isn't it spend it on aspirin to make sure that aspirin
		
00:46:33 --> 00:46:36
			so all of us are logged on with openness an account called time
		
00:46:37 --> 00:46:46
			and the count of time and every day Allah put into that account 86,400 seconds, every single day.
		
00:46:47 --> 00:46:54
			Right that you get MPD every man in his in his time account. And at the end of the day,
		
00:46:56 --> 00:47:00
			that 86,400 seconds is if you didn't use it, what happens to it?
		
00:47:03 --> 00:47:04
			You can't take an overdraft.
		
00:47:06 --> 00:47:07
			You can't use it tomorrow.
		
00:47:10 --> 00:47:11
			You have to use it today.
		
00:47:12 --> 00:47:18
			Today Today today. And so a lot about how not Allah
		
00:47:20 --> 00:47:27
			has given us this facility and we as Muslims understand this more than anything else. What do we
understand about
		
00:47:28 --> 00:47:30
			we understand that time
		
00:47:31 --> 00:47:35
			is only for a period of time.
		
00:47:38 --> 00:47:41
			And that when this time is over, it doesn't end.
		
00:47:43 --> 00:47:44
			It continues
		
00:47:45 --> 00:47:58
			for millions and millions and millions of years afterwards. Not one year. You live till 90 when you
die you're not going to live another 90 days after your death No. When you die you're going to live
for billions
		
00:47:59 --> 00:48:00
			of years.
		
00:48:02 --> 00:48:02
			Harley
		
00:48:04 --> 00:48:12
			Harley Delphia holiday holiday allows foreigners is the other life is forever.
		
00:48:15 --> 00:48:24
			This life for now, other life is wave. So May Allah Allah give and what is it about? Why did I bring
up this? Why am I discussing time today?
		
00:48:25 --> 00:48:27
			Because last week, we spoke about what time
		
00:48:30 --> 00:48:43
			the 10 days of the Elijah three is gone. Three of those days is gone. That I can read at 6403 days
we had in the bank. We spent it spent it all
		
00:48:45 --> 00:48:46
			and we now have we now have
		
00:48:48 --> 00:48:49
			Mashallah, how many days left?
		
00:48:52 --> 00:48:53
			Seven days late.
		
00:48:55 --> 00:49:03
			So we asked a lot for hunter to grant us the trophy, understanding commitment, never late
		
00:49:04 --> 00:49:08
			to change our lives, whether you're 90 or 19
		
00:49:10 --> 00:49:11
			and allows rantala
		
00:49:18 --> 00:49:23
			the first Hadith which isn't easily related in the books of Hadith, which was
		
00:49:24 --> 00:49:27
			taught by the Navy Salah 13. It was a hobby
		
00:49:29 --> 00:49:30
			was the hadith of IR hammer.
		
00:49:32 --> 00:49:33
			Have mercy on
		
00:49:34 --> 00:49:37
			on those who are perfect or lower left on you.
		
00:49:38 --> 00:49:40
			That we must understand
		
00:49:42 --> 00:49:46
			that the God would we believe in is the God of forgiveness,
		
00:49:48 --> 00:49:58
			that we must understand that this allow in which we believe says la takana to me Rahmatullah don't
know this pay of the mercy of your Lord
		
00:50:00 --> 00:50:07
			Even if you kill 99 people and you're on your way to killing 100 bandit person, there is forgiveness
for you.
		
00:50:11 --> 00:50:16
			So May Allah grant us inshallah that we make use of this seven days
		
00:50:17 --> 00:50:18

00:50:19 --> 00:50:26

then evisa salon says the person who first on the day of arafah allows the high note Allah will
forgive a year past sins of the year past and sins of a year coming.
		
00:51:09 --> 00:51:26

previous year is forgiven and the future is forgiven panel. And this is the glory and greatness of
Allah was Pyro tada and Remember if you can afford to make or burn.
		
00:51:27 --> 00:51:35

00:51:43 --> 00:51:46
