So I asked you to forgive them forgive the sins in the canter. alemu they will continue with the second part now will azima Allah rushed the result to adhere to the path of guidance. So here we're talking about determination in practicing the deen of Allah subhanho wa Taala and determination could be we need your attention voice right? determination could be defined as you know firmness firmness of purpose. Or it could mean the ability to continue doing the same thing. Despite the difficulties and

00:03:42--> 00:04:07

the hardship that you face. You continue with patients with suffer. You continue doing the same thing you believe in it. This is the right path. This is the right thing to do. You continue doing it. This is the determination or this is a lesson that's why loss pantalla talks about Allah as Amina Rasul prophets and messengers of great determination we'll talk about them today in sha Allah being lighter.

00:04:08--> 00:04:23

and determination year one is is universally Yani recognized and appreciated in different cultures, different people, Muslims and non Muslims. All of them recognize the importance of determination.

00:04:24--> 00:04:57

And some of them some of the people who deal with the science of we call it science the size of a TV, it became a science nowadays, the science of personal development. They said some of them some of the teachers, they said the number one reason people win or lose is their use or non use of determination. And they give examples of people who grew up in the same family within the same family. Some of them

00:04:58--> 00:04:59

are losers.

00:05:00--> 00:05:33

failures. And some of them were able to succeed in the era, of course, talking about dounia talking about the financial, succeed in their plans, and we became very successful people in this society, people who grew up in the same society in the same family. And he said, the number one reason or the main difference between them is determination. I heard one time some rownum, a talking, mentioning some names of greater rule. And they said that this great rule must have studied with other students of knowledge.

00:05:36--> 00:05:54

But they decided, they were determined, and they had a firmer plan to seek knowledge, until the last no doubt helped them and they became great scholars. And Allah subhanaw taala benefited the oma through the efforts. And their their, their in their knowledge.

00:05:56--> 00:06:05

We know their names, and we appreciate their efforts. We read their books, while the other the same students who are attending with them the same halaqa

00:06:07--> 00:06:08

didn't do anything we

00:06:09--> 00:06:17

didn't make they were not able to make any contribution. So what is the difference here? He said it is their determination.

00:06:19--> 00:07:07

To lie, Ali said, Alonzo is trying to give us a definition in Arabic, about an ASME which is determination because we're talking about azima and azima. Allah rushed to try to understand the dog food loss as well as you know, what is last Eva, we said it is determination, it is an Arabic called azima oralism. So, here, I am is trying to give us a definition. What is this determination? He said alas mo who will cause do lgnz matassini bill fan? He said it is a firm intention that is connected with action. That means if there is no action, then this is not determination. This is not as he azima it could be called wishful thinking. Like I should be going to the gym. I should I be doing

00:07:07--> 00:07:36

this I should be coming to the masjid I should be saving some money for Hajj but without doing anything. So this is wishful thinking. I will claim he said unfair Lula with any atrocity, Nia various must be some connection between the intention and the action. So mccarl had a fita heavy but that he said again, our modality, Sally can hook it up. He wrote the book modality Sally King steps of the seekers. It's a famous book that was authored by my favorite ally. So,

00:07:38--> 00:08:09

what is the essence of this determination? lasme happy to who he said who was teach marocco and irata alafair. Very, very precise definition. He said that you gather you the powers of your will to perform the action, you gather the powers of your will to perform the action. Now, that's why I must pelota Allah said to his messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in Surah Al Imran either as into Fatah can Allah

00:08:11--> 00:08:44

will you make a firm decision? When you place your trust in Allah Subhana Allah rely upon Allah and then which means you any start fulfill what you the conclusion that are the decision that you made. So put it into action. So but there is a process before it. He was talking to him. That the way you the best way to deal with your companions forgive their sins, their mistakes, pardon them share with Whoville, Mr. E these are requirements of leadership, good leaders.

00:08:46--> 00:09:28

The qualities of good leaders in Islam because he was talking to Mohammed Salah Allahu alayhi salam about his role as a as a leader in the community. So what do you do? If you take everyone to account for his mistakes, you will have no friends, you will have no companions. You will have no relationship no friendly relationship with people. So he said forgive their sins, forgive their mistakes, pardon them, we'll share we will consult with them don't take make decisions by yourself. This is the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the importance of Shura and being a member of a team, a team of plan, so that when you reach this firm decision that they will call

00:09:28--> 00:09:29

Allah.

00:09:31--> 00:09:37

And in a different area, Allah subhanho wa Taala told him that you need to be patient.

00:09:39--> 00:09:54

As those are where those prophets have a great determination First, well kemer savara rosmini Rasul Allah, Allah says Allah was facing rejection. His people were making fun of him the marking is his message.

00:09:55--> 00:09:59

You know, you know what happened to him in the city of Mecca for 13 years. Salli salatu salam

00:10:00--> 00:10:22

So what was the instruction? What was the commander for las panatela? First bear came savara realize Me, me know Russell, he said Be patient, like those prophets of great determination, they will patient before you, they face the same problems with their people. So that means, you know, this path, the path of the hour was not covered with flowers.

00:10:24--> 00:10:26

They had there is a methylene

00:10:27--> 00:11:04

blue route. I don't know if this proverb or the saying is found in English, you know, the path is not covered with the flowers that could this is a literal, basic, literal translation of this Arabic statement. That means this task their task was not easy, even though their prophets and messengers, but he faced problems and he dealt with hardship. How do you salatu salam? So here last Hotel in Salt Lake is talking about kulula as me meaner Rasul prophets and messengers who had a great determination Who are they the most famous opinion there are only five

00:11:05--> 00:11:10

five of them new Halle Salaam, Ibrahim Ali salaam,

00:11:11--> 00:11:24

salaam Isa and Mohammed Salah Hollywood. So they said no, of no Halle Salah Ibrahim Abraham Musa Moses, he said Jesus and and Mohammed sallallahu wasallam

00:11:25--> 00:12:13

there is no clear proof. Then there is no Hadith that says these are the prophets and messengers for great determination. That means this, this matter is not agreed upon. So let's look looked at 282 verses from the Quran in which Allah subhana wa Taala mentioned the names of these five messengers, like one of them in solid, in sort of lost weight or have not been in the vena mytho home. Remember when we took the covenant, our covenant from the prophets are the messengers were minca and from you so he started with Muhammad Sallallahu sallam, when we knew what Ebrahim were moose, there were so many bunny Maria will have them in home without Elisa, and we took a heavy covenant from them. So in

00:12:13--> 00:12:53

this ayah there is a different area where Allah, Allah mentioned those five messengers, so some ruler, Maddy said he must be it's a conclusion he said he had it's a matter of wished he had. There are some other lemma who said no, all Prophets and Messengers had a great determination. All of them could be described as people have a great determination on our island. There is a third opinion that says the number is more than five but not all of them could be described as people of great determination. Allah Allah Allah but the word hula has me mean urusan is found in the Quran in the book of Allah subhanho wa Taala

00:12:54--> 00:13:12

there is something that very famous in Arabic Allah, Allah said here it's a famous matter of grammar in the Arabic language, he said Mr. Russell min could be could mean part of a group being part of tabrizi and

00:13:14--> 00:14:02

the other type of min is Bernier is to indicate to demonstrate say like method and all of them, you know, how this this great determination a lot anyway, and azeema and a rush here when you use these two, you're asking Allah subhanaw taala to grant you the power of determination to follow what the right guidance because the root of the word rational means guidance or means the right way. It could mean sometimes in the Arabic language maturity sinner rushed, they say so and so has reached signal reached the age of maturity. And they use the word the term sin or rushed sin the age of maturity, but maturity here also meet could mean sometimes knowledge wisdom. So you are asking Allah subhana

00:14:02--> 00:14:19

wa Taala to grant you the power to you know, to follow guidance and and wisdom and a way that Allah Allah is pleased with now we need this to hire one because knowing what is right and what is wrong is not enough.

00:14:20--> 00:14:49

And majority of people overwhelming the overwhelming majority of people they know what is right and what is wrong. Many majority of Muslims who earn enough they know what is haram and what is halal. In the deen of Allah subhanho wa Taala and they know what they are supposed to do. They know what is right and what is wrong. But when it comes to practicing, or acting there is a big difference. There are people who know what they are supposed to do and we do it

00:14:50--> 00:14:59

because they they have the made a firm decision to follow the right of guidance and they made it a priority in their life.

00:15:00--> 00:15:04

The following this way, Miss Allah subhanaw, taala phycology jamir Lima field,

00:15:06--> 00:15:42

but there are people who struggled with this, they cannot make the right decision. They cannot take the decision. I mean, they said yes, I should be coming to the masjid. But they don't make the decision to come for the solid five daily prayers, I'm talking about five daily prayers, for example. It's important, we'll talk about it today inshallah. Anyway, the nature of this determination again, there are some indicators, who said, you need three elements for determination. And this is something that is found, as I said, within other cultures, and it is found within our Islamic

00:15:43--> 00:15:48

Islamic teachings to either go to a commitment and focus.

00:15:50--> 00:16:23

ie to have a goal, we cannot have to have a determination about nothing you need to have, you need to have a determination, you've got to have a determination to do something, or to stay away from something. So there is a goal and what is better than, you know, what is the better than entering the agenda for last panel to add and be among the successful people on the agenda. So this should be our ultimate goal. And we should be working for this baby lighter. By the way, this is called great success, great success.

00:16:24--> 00:16:30

And the Quran in the Quran, and for those who love Him, or vaniqa, who will also love him, it's only mentioned about Jenna

00:16:32--> 00:16:49

then you can close your RV that is a great achievement. That is great success. This term is only used about Juna in the Quran, and the definition of a great success, even if we don't say it, which you have in mind actually makes a big difference in your life

00:16:51--> 00:16:52

makes a big difference in your life.

00:16:53--> 00:17:02

There are many people who don't say it, but we come here with a full example to this land and great success in their mind in their you know,

00:17:03--> 00:17:09

in their perspective is to achieve the American dream, which is what what is the American Dream

00:17:11--> 00:17:11

now

00:17:12--> 00:17:18

to maybe own house, I think owning a house is a is a major element in this dream, right?

00:17:19--> 00:17:30

owning a house not renting, having your house maybe a car and have some money and have a secure job. So money in the bank account right? This is the American dream.

00:17:31--> 00:17:59

And it's very known any and I'm not talking about only Muslims, there are people who many people who immigrated to this land with this dream in mind. So what do you see that when a Muslim thinks that this is the the great achievement or this is the great success, then his life will be different than someone who believes that the great success of fosun Avi is what Allah Subhana Allah described in the Quran as a great success.

00:18:00--> 00:18:28

Right. So they will have different lifestyles different ways they will be they will be treated the way the This person will not treat his salad or him or Quran, the Book of Allah subhanaw taala the way the other person treats the book of Allah subhanaw taala or his finally five daily prayers or his relationship with the last panel dad, or that will work. This is the first person maybe he doesn't care about them. He wants a second job.

00:18:29--> 00:19:01

A second income because he is His goal is to have this to buy this house. Not saying buy houses isn't how dumb. Okay, I'm not saying that. They're talking about priorities here. And Muslims, how we organize our priorities, good to have money. Money is good, it will help you but if you use it in the right way you earn it from Helen source or use it in sha Allah in the right way is good, it will help you it will help you but it doesn't take you to gender unless use it in the right way.

00:19:03--> 00:19:14

Your money might take you to gender if you use it in the right way. Give sadaqa up your sexuality and use it in sha Allah be even Elijah Allah, you stand for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala.

00:19:17--> 00:19:24

So the first thing is goal we're talking about, we have to have a goal here. And our ultimate goal

00:19:25--> 00:19:32

is to go to general commitment. This is the state of being dedicated to a cause or a purpose.

00:19:33--> 00:19:59

And we know what is commitment when we talk about mithuna and working in the masjid Muslim organizations doing their work doing volunteers in our community. We talk about commitment, and we talk about lack of commitment. We talk about lack of volunteers. You know, sometimes we don't we want to do something and because of lack of volunteers, we cannot do it. I'm telling you the truth. I'm being honest with you. There are things that we wish sometimes to do them. We sit down

00:20:00--> 00:20:05

We talk to each other, and we like to do it but we don't have enough people.

00:20:06--> 00:20:18

We don't have enough people to do it. So but here I would like to talk about commitment in general. And they say, you know, people in general who believe in their goals, so you need to believe in your goal

00:20:20--> 00:20:41

and they are committed to achieve them will have more energy and more success in their life. So they have a clear goal, and they have commitment, then these people Allah Subhana, Allah to Allah will provide his aid his help for them, why we have some proofs in the Quran. Where is it? Allahu livina houden

00:20:43--> 00:21:01

Allah, Allah saying soret meriam Allah increases those who are guided in guidance. So they made the decision the first step, they made the decision to follow the path of guidance. And Allah subhanaw taala is increasing that he promised that he will increase them in guidance.

00:21:03--> 00:21:33

And I always tell people, it's impossible. I cannot imagine that you want guidance. As a person you want guidance, you want to go to Zhanna you want to be a good Muslim, then Allah Allah will not help you to achieve this goal. It's impossible. We know Allah subhanho wa Taala. He loves the people of Telford. Toba, he loves the people who makes too far who comes they come back to him they want you know to please Him. Do you? Can you imagine that you want to be close to Allah, Pantheon. And then he will keep you away.

00:21:35--> 00:22:13

And at the end, he will keep you away. He will say no, I don't care about this person. He will go to hell fire. Even though I mean no matter what you do go to hell fire. No, this is not the mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala. So now he is promising in a different women you mean below here the callback. This is a rule like a basically, whoever believes in Allah who will guide his heart, even if you have some problems here. If you believe in Allah Subhana Allah you want to be a servant of Allah, Allah, Allah will provide his guidance, He will guide his heart This is promised from Allah subhanaw taala. Number three, the said focus, which means that your goal is the center of your

00:22:13--> 00:22:19

interest or activity is the center of your attention. What is the center of your attention?

00:22:21--> 00:22:30

Every Muslim should ask himself, what is the center of your attention in this life? Here again, we are talking about your goal as a Muslim.

00:22:31--> 00:23:16

So Allah subhanaw taala is giving us some guidance here. He wants us to make an error, the center or the focus of our efforts. You know, when we make an athlete at the center of our efforts, even if we lose our money, if we don't have a good life, from a material perspective, we still happy we still happy you will be a happy person. Because your goal is not to accumulate money, even though it's held to accumulate money, as I said in the right way. But this is not your priority. Even if you don't achieve your goal because you have another goal, which is going to Shana pleasing. The last part of it doesn't cost you money to come to the machine. It doesn't cost you money to remember the

00:23:16--> 00:23:57

last half hour, it doesn't cost you anything to read the Quran, right? So it's easy to please Allah subhanaw taala if you don't have money, you don't have to pay zakat. You don't have money, you don't have to pay sadaqa. So it's easy to please Allah subhanho wa Taala There are many ways that you should take you out that could take you to gender be the latter. But Allah Subhana Allah told us about it. What should be the center of our attention as Muslims, this message was made sent to our own, by whom by his own people or the believers, the believing people from his own people. Then we saw it because he lived at the time of Moosa, he was actually the cousin of Musa Harun chapter in

00:23:57--> 00:24:09

certain classes. Chapter 28 What is a message is a very strong message he will be to the female attack Allahu darnel. When it in Salah Siva kameena dunya

00:24:10--> 00:24:25

so beautiful, actually principle here, the people of qarun told him this, he was rich, wealthy, and he was arrogant and he thought that he was because of his, you know, his intelligence and his his power, he was able to accumulate this wealth.

00:24:26--> 00:24:44

These people were telling him or believing people from a man from his people will tell him No, this is a this is a bounty from Allah subhanaw taala. So anyway, but we told him wept every female attack, seek through that which Allah subhanaw taala has given you the home of the after,

00:24:45--> 00:24:59

which means and Allah, Allah approved what he said that's why it was revealed as a form of guidance in the Quran. Allah approved with he said, this is the statement of his believers among his people. He at

00:25:00--> 00:25:45

Have a seat that is the center of your attention seek through that which Allah has given you, it could be a degree, it could be money, could be a status could be connections, could be anything, anything that you have knowledge skills, is what Allah subhanaw taala want you wants you to do, whatever you have in your hand, see COVID the whole of the here after. And then at the end of the I will attend San Jose de Baca Mina dunia and yet do not forget your share of this life you have a life to live in this on this earth, a short period to spend and in this life, it's okay i mean you have needs you have basic needs, you cannot forget forget these basic needs, give them some

00:25:45--> 00:26:20

attention, but is what is the center of your attention is an error based on this idea. So little passes. So this is what the believers should do. Now, the next part of this too, was Luca Mooji, berthier asthmatic who as their inner man theoretic I asked you for that which obligates Your mercy and resolutions which cause my sins to be forgiven or resolutions of my of your forgiveness. So beloved rbma, Mooji, better Rama and Rama carlu heal akua

00:26:21--> 00:26:35

akua Lucifer atleti Tasha Laura metal Kirby Serbia. Amanda has a dua Woolfolk Nia, Allah in fn will acquire wazifa suffered and let the tassel or metal cabassa

00:26:36--> 00:26:43

which means Oh Allah, you are saying he when he say alarming Yes, Luca Mooji Bertie aromatic

00:26:45--> 00:26:56

Oh Allah helped me or enabled me to do all the actions and make all the statements and get all the qualities through which your mercy is granted.

00:26:58--> 00:27:03

This is Mooji better Rama, anything that will bring obligate Rama for Allah to coming into your life.

00:27:05--> 00:27:08

This is the it's a very comprehensive Darius beautiful

00:27:11--> 00:27:21

Allah subhanho wa Taala so I would say that all the EVA that the acts of worship that we do, should bring the mercy of Allah subhanaw taala and our life

00:27:22--> 00:28:07

should obligate the mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala to come. Let's hurt Alameda to rule if you do this. You will be included in his mercy canal Farah Medina. at Cal. Now he told us about some prophets and messengers, we included him in our mercy. You'd hear my iesha of Iraq matter. He includes whom ever he wishes or wants, in His mercy. So you want the last family to include you in his mercy. But he told us about some qualities, few things that we do if we do, we will be included in his mercy Allah will have he he will have mercy on us if we knew these things, and we need to pay attention to them. This is the guidance of Allah. Allah in the Quran in one eye for example in salty

00:28:07--> 00:28:13

tober he said well move me noona will move Mina to Babu Alia of

00:28:15--> 00:28:19

this very important one. We are lacking this big time.

00:28:20--> 00:28:32

Yeah, we're all the way in Helena and in Lucca will be Mona salata, we tune in circuit. We will tayrona Mahara hula, hula. Look at this statement. hula hula

00:28:34--> 00:28:45

hula aka se or hula in the law has isn't hacking. So in this is Sora tob. Allah said, the believing men and believing woman are allies of one another.

00:28:46--> 00:29:20

We'll come back to it, we'll talk about it, our allies of one another, the enjoying what is right. The invite to what is right, is what we're supposed to do. In our halaqaat in our family life in our circles, this is what we are supposed to do. But nowadays, of course, you know, we feel we're very, I mean, we don't want to talk to people we don't want to afraid. So if I tell him this, do this or don't do this, they might not accept it. And we have problem now with the concept of an ml model for an animal.

00:29:21--> 00:29:25

I mean, if you start telling people about what is right and what is wrong all the time, the

00:29:27--> 00:29:30

the field that you are boring, you are a boring person, you're not cool.

00:29:32--> 00:29:57

You're not cool. So anyway, this is what we are, what we see these days, the enjoying what is right and forbid what is wrong, establish the prayer and give Zakat and obey must parrot Allah and His Messenger those, this is a promise, those Allah will have mercy upon them. So those people who have this suffered these qualities Allah who would include them in his mercy.

00:29:58--> 00:30:00

Indeed, Allah is Exalted.

00:30:00--> 00:30:12

It in Might and Wise. So this one is a proof that those who love each other for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala you have all the believers, whether they are from your country from your culture, or they are not

00:30:14--> 00:30:51

they speak the same language you speak or they don't they have the same color like yours or they don't. They are believers. They believe in a lie. Mohammed Rasul Allah, you should be allies, allies Jani you support each other? What community are we one community now? We are not. We have different names in different groups and different. This division did not exist at the time first and last. So what Allah Allah is talking about here, maybe the community of the Sahaba didn't have his Marius didn't have she didn't have Cardenas didn't have, I don't know, what are the names, all the names, Sophie's didn't have these names, naksha, bundys,

00:30:52--> 00:31:35

challies, and all these names there. We didn't have these names. This is enough proof that no this this methodology is should be should be rejected. Right? It is only one way to Allah. Allah Serato, stocky, and that is the way of Rasulullah Salim and his companions, one community, one community. So the believers should we should they should be together they should be working, even if the I mean they have their own massage, it will but they should love each other and talk to each other and cooperate with each other this What am I saying? allies, you know an ally, when you see that person is my ally and he you support him, he supports you. He defends you. He protects your honor and

00:31:35--> 00:32:07

dignity. The word ally means a lot, right? So this is what the last part Allah is saying about what the word should be or what kind of relationship the Muslims are the believers should have the enjoying what is right and forbid what is what is wrong. Islam. And mocha Of course, we live in a time we live in an in a place in a land and a time we're not able to talk about many things. But at least what is the minimum level?

00:32:09--> 00:32:15

The minimum level is that you shouldn't be happy or satisfied with the moon

00:32:17--> 00:32:30

that is happening around you. The mockery and the evil that is taking place. You cannot just ignore it or become familiar with it. To the extent that you have no feeling towards it.

00:32:32--> 00:33:07

If you need your level, then this is this is this is a problem. And that's why there are many rules. When we when the the talk about Muslims living in a non Muslim land. They said this one this problem could be one of the consequences. But it is everywhere. To be honest with you, even in Muslim countries, you only see the same things that are happening here. You see things happening there to Muslim or non Muslim lands Muslim or non Muslim countries. It's a globalization of evil.

00:33:09--> 00:33:10

Right, it's everywhere.

00:33:11--> 00:33:47

But no, I'm not trying to talk now about should we stay here or leave? Well, that's a different subject, right? But what I am saying is Allah subhanho wa Taala is talking in the Quran about the concept of inviting people to what is more of what is right and forbidding. And there earlier Maddy said, there are three levels, and the least are the minimum level and this is good if you have this Allah will not take you to account because you're not able to do anything. You're not able to change anything. You're not able to do anything you walk in the street, you see many things that are not that are more

00:33:48--> 00:33:52

evil, right, but you're not able to do anything about it. At least

00:33:54--> 00:33:57

in your heart. You tell Allah subhanaw taala I'm not happy with this.

00:33:59--> 00:34:06

Urbina Genie Whalley Maya model that was a flawed la center. For example, talking about moon Valley center.

00:34:07--> 00:34:55

That was his rabina Genie Allah, protect me, save me from the consequences of what they do. was not his problem. was a prophet of Allah subhanaw taala and many people in his community were not involved in that evil, but many of them were happy and were were fine with it. And this is what's happening now in many countries, in many countries. majority of people are fine, this is okay. This is fine. There is nothing wrong with it. So Muslim cannot cannot think this way. When they're talking about this specific evil or any type of evil, why drinking or you know, anything, any type of evil, if you see it with your eyes, at least between you animals and our to Allah, you should

00:34:55--> 00:34:56

have something here.

00:34:57--> 00:35:00

You show us panatela that you are not

00:35:00--> 00:35:06

satisfied with this even even though you know that you are not involved in it, but you're not happy with it.

00:35:07--> 00:35:49

And this is the minimum level of incur in Korea and forbidding evil, you're not, you're not doing anything about it physically or we're not talking because the second level is talking about it, talking to people trying to do something about it. There are people who talk about other things that are happening around us. And they send petitions, this is new thing. It's very popular these days. You send a petition and people sign it, it's good. There are many I signed many petitions, hoping that Allah subhanaw taala will include me, among those whom if I reject, you know, what's happening, regarding a specific or a particular problem, we cannot do it about you, I know about everything.

00:35:49--> 00:35:51

But anyway, at least you try your best.

00:35:53--> 00:36:03

Now, as I said, Now, if you spend some time, you know, with this idea, this idea, as I said, I told you, it's 71 in Surah Tila in salty tober.

00:36:05--> 00:36:12

You'll find that Allah subhanaw taala here is talking about people who are involved in communal work.

00:36:14--> 00:36:45

The Muslims who are productive Muslims who work for positive change in the community, they are involved in the community, the invite to what is good, what is right and we try to forbid evil. We participate in the establishment of the prayer. You know, Allah subhanho wa Taala said, Here, it always talks about Allah Subhana Allah iqama to solid were against Allah to add to Zakat, he you never find in the Quran that Allah says hello.

00:36:46--> 00:36:56

Salut means to perform the prayer. So you can do it by yourself you can do it in any way. But it armor to solid. What is a polymer two solid,

00:36:57--> 00:37:08

solid 2pm solid is to establish the prayer and to establish means to set up something on affirm or a permanent or permanent basis.

00:37:10--> 00:37:15

There are rules regulations may be a place for people to come together

00:37:16--> 00:37:29

and establish the prayer together. That's why some rules are not from this is this word it common to select a comma to establish we concluded that salado Gemma for male

00:37:30--> 00:38:13

community members could be an obligation they need to come to the message and establish the prayer together. We have a famous Hadith, in which was from Lhasa Selim said many flf if you're creating will ever doing lead to comfy husana illustre what the shaytaan Oh, and he him Fadi Campbell Gemma. So how the heck do you throw a Buddha the Buddha or the Allah I know he said, narrated the Messenger of Allah sallallahu Sallam said, there are no three people who live in a village or a desert, whether it is a village or a desert, and the salad is not established. Among them. It's talking about three people is a minimum number. And Assad is not established among them, except that shaitan

00:38:13--> 00:38:42

will have mastery over their affairs. So basically shaytan will be leading them and guiding guiding them to the wrong path will have mastery that means he will if tema cadmium Chez Panisse, Allah Salamone haffi for na kamiyama that was the naseeha for Sula cisilion. So keep stay with the Gema with the congregation and the odema. He said he meant here the group in a congregation of salad.

00:38:44--> 00:39:25

So any from these different proofs summary lemma concluded that salad will murshid offering your salad in the message could be an obligation upon male members of the community I'm saying main members of the community as well as advised women to pray in their houses. But at the same time, he said if they want to come to the masjid, then they should be no problem. You cannot prevent them from coming to the mercy but it's better for them maybe to perform their five daily prayers at home. But if there is a helicopter program Allah they should be coming they should come and you know participate with the rest of Muslims like method and during read prayers. Sula system is to commend

00:39:25--> 00:39:41

every community members to attend a prayer. So now as I said, when I read when I read the first part of the AI of believing men and believing woman I thought about unity. So unity is a source of what

00:39:42--> 00:39:42

from

00:39:45--> 00:40:00

when we are united, we deserve what the rationale for Allah subhanaw taala at the mercy of Allah subhanaw taala. When we are not even when we are not united when we are divided then it is a form of suffering and this statement was made by some

00:40:00--> 00:40:41

Scholars settle for aka either. Division is a form of suffering. And we suffer when we are divided. When we don't work to we don't achieve anything, we don't help ourselves, we don't help our communities when we are divided. Sometimes we waste time with each other, you're trying to, you know, create problems to, for each other, we waste our time, instead of paying out no turning our attention to more important issues in the community, trying to achieve something for our community, nope, we're wasting our time talking about so and so. And so and so, and discussing what's also said, and what the other group did, or what the other message did, and so on and so forth. And it

00:40:41--> 00:41:24

will be wasting our time not achieving anything. Someone told me. I heard it from someone who is a member of a board in one of the Muslim organizations. He told me what law when we meet 90% of our discussions about disagreement and disputes and problems between people 10% of our discussion about about community issues. He said, That's why I resigned, I left I couldn't, I couldn't finish. I couldn't you know, work in this in this environment. 90% He said it's backbiting and gossip and, and issues and problems. And now, yeah, 90% is a 10% is about our community affairs. And I said they couldn't I couldn't continue with this board. And I left.

00:41:25--> 00:41:50

This is a very sad situation. So here, yeah, because we are not united, even in places where Muslims are supposed to be united, they are not united. If you think about Syria, and you think about Iraq and other places, Muslims who are Mashallah tried to defend their land and defend their people, and the might have a good cause. They're not divided. Sorry, they are not united.

00:41:51--> 00:42:00

We have this problem. It's a real problem. When we become united under the leadership of Maddie, then we deserve victory for Allah subhanho wa Taala. This is what they believe.

00:42:02--> 00:42:29

So Muslims are supposed to care for each other, they love each other and help each other to support each other, what I say support each other and help each other Of course, at least you should have this deal. Hello example we have an organization have been working in this organization for a long period of time, people come to my office asking for help. I have to be honest with you, most of the time we're not I mean, sometimes you're not able to offer your your help this help.

00:42:31--> 00:42:45

You're not able it's beyond your method and beyond your your means or what you have beyond your ability, but at least you should have the intention inside that if you are able to help this brother or sister You should do it.

00:42:46--> 00:42:54

And Allah only Allah knows about your intention at least you should have this intention that if you are able to do what you do it

00:42:55--> 00:43:01

but sometimes you're not you're not able but at least this is what I mean here they're having good intention is very important to one

00:43:03--> 00:43:20

time. So anyone you look at this I II feel like these believers are part of the solution in to build the Muslim Amal productive ummah. They are not part of the problem. And this is what Muslims, all Muslims should aspire to be Willow tile and

00:43:21--> 00:44:05

these are the things that we if we do we deserve Allah's mercy, we will be able to earn Allah's mercy. Another thing that will bring Allah's mercy in your life. allistic foreigner is the far sileye Prophet sallallahu alayhi salatu salam, when he was talking to his people, he said Lola, this stuff Iran, Allah La La come to him and he was inviting his people to accept his message, or to make Toba. He said Why do you not seek forgiveness of Allah? And what is the purpose that you may receive His mercy and mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala. So the rule mfe said is still far is a great way to earn Allah's mercy in this life and the hereafter. And that's why our solar system used to advise

00:44:05--> 00:44:50

Muslims to increase is too far and there are many ways, many forms sophister far there are statements well known statement, that if you memorize them, or you read them from a book, you see them keep saying them on a daily basis. Allah subhanaw taala forgive your sins, if he forgives you since then you will be included in his mercy. It's a process and you know, the sage will suffer the master supplication of seeking Allah, repentance seeking repentance or ask forgiveness method and the other dura suffer la isla de la de la Jorge up you were to boulais another great form of VISTA form, or method to do out of Eunice la Santa Maria La Land subhanak in nikulin to me avani me, or

00:44:50--> 00:44:59

the statement that was made by by Adam nslm and his wife, Robin, and fusina while mtap Filipina water Hannah, then akun and Amina

00:45:00--> 00:45:48

Mr. Farr if you keep saying them on a daily basis, hopefully you will be included beat me later on in the mercy of Allah subhana wa. Now Isaiah aima mk ferritic la mean worse elica Mooji Bertie arithmetic whereas a mammal thermophilic we said the resolutions of your forgiveness and you're asking the last panel or towel to do all the things which make you earn the forgiveness of Allah subhanho wa Taala as again the words as a musataha azima and we said azima is determination or Asan. So, he only basically you are asking las panatela to empower you or give you the power of determination, the ITU to make these

00:45:48--> 00:46:15

plans, you make plans and actions that will you know, you you execute these plans or these actions with commitment, and then you will be Sharla Bz later Allah among those who earned the forgiveness of Allah subhanaw taala one example here in the Quran method and last part Allah told us about a permit salatu salam, we'll come back to the salad. We're adding the solid toffee in hurry Harry was the elephant in LA.

00:46:16--> 00:46:37

We're going to sell out this is in salt hood, and performed a salad at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night. Some earlier Maddy said this statement includes all the five daily prayers. They shouldn't be problem there are some Muslims who have a problem with this. They said Allah subhanaw taala did not mention the five daily prayers in the Quran.

00:46:38--> 00:47:05

And yes, that's that's right. He didn't mention the five daily prayers Bora Nasser and Maghrib and Isha. But this is something that is well established lasala hasulam when he received why during the trip of Lisa on Mirage, she believed the next day came and he taught him the five daily prayers, and it is an established sooner, sooner. mutawatir. What is a mutawatir Hadith is a heavy that was

00:47:07--> 00:47:10

reported by such a large group of people.

00:47:11--> 00:47:18

And it is impossible to the extent that it is impossible to believe that they could have agreed upon a lie.

00:47:19--> 00:47:45

This is something that is well established, it was narrated by all the Sahaba older Sahaba used to pray these five daily prayers with Rasulullah Salim No one said something else. No one said we used to pray for the prayers or for prayers. The there was no disagreement about the five daily prayers. There was almost as you mentioned, these five daily prayers in many a hadith authentic hadith. Now, the authority of the Sunnah is well established in the Quran.

00:47:47--> 00:48:31

And what I'm trying to say is something doesn't have to be explicitly mentioned in the Quran to believe in it. And if the word Isha Salatin, Russia is not mentioned in the Quran, then I don't believe in it, you become a karate who rejects the sooner the authority of the sooner. But there are plenty of authentic hadith about these five daily prayers. And Allah is telling you in the Quran that you need to follow the wave of the Prophet when I talk to women, how can I know Santo so these people have the plenty of iron in the Quran telling us that we need to follow it's an obligation upon all Muslims to follow the way of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. So the authority of

00:48:31--> 00:48:33

the Sunnah cannot be

00:48:34--> 00:48:48

questioned, cannot be a subject of disagreement. And yet there are Muslims who deny the authority of the center these days and they call themselves cronies. But they don't know why the what do they do with

00:48:49--> 00:49:32

with the five daily prayers and they are not mentioned their times the number of their records are not mentioned in the Quran, forecasts for Dora NASA three four Mahi benicia they're not mentioned these details are not mentioned in the Quran. So because Allah is telling us Quran is a source of guidance, and the sooner for Salah Salem is a source of forehand guidance or revelation and we have to put them together cannot separate between the Quran and the authentic sooner of Rasulullah sallallahu it was said So here it's a general statement that Runa met he said Allah saying before the Salah at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night they have different explanations

00:49:32--> 00:49:59

they said some hours of the night could be in Asia could be maryborough Asia together the beginning of the day could could mean so bad by itself. And the end of the day Laura Nasser different interpretations, but we all all of them agreed there is no qualified scholar who said no, that Muslims are not supposed to pray five daily prayers. They're supposed to pray only four or three. I mean, there is no Sunni Muslims caller who said

00:50:00--> 00:50:49

You know who questioned the validity of this sooner this well established to know which is praying or obligation I would say praying the five daily prayers. But after this, Allah Subhana Allah made a very important statement. He said inhale has entered at you the hypocrisy at the then you can Vicarage, Zachary, he said Verily, the good deeds, remove the evil deeds was talking about solid. So, this is an example of our good deeds, a good example a major obligation which is solid. So, after that he said in that has anything you the hypocrisy that means when you pray, when you do your your daily prayers, what happened is your sins will be forgiven. So, this is one example one of this

00:50:49--> 00:51:28

example of the things that you do Bismillah on a daily basis or weekly basis, like Juma or a yearly basis like Ramadan fasting the month of Ramadan, and Allah Allah will forgive your sins basically later. So here as a monk ferritic asking the last patch it gives you the power here to make good decisions, and the result of which will be Allah's forgiveness, the Mk theater of Allah subhana wa tada is Allah subhanho wa Taala and he will phonetically fail is a como la vida will continue with this to insha Allah, the next halaqa and maybe the one after and then we're done with it as akula Clayton Baraka lofi come as this
