hub ob shortly sundry recently Emory was becoming the sounding of holy I mean, handler Grammy we're going to discuss today do our supplication that you all know about sha Allah. And if you don't know about it, at least you know the idea, but definitely I highly recommend you keep it with you because that's the communists Who are your heroes.
This is an A lot of people know it, or it's actually known as do our note, which means a supplication of the status of a note which is in the last ruka the last Salah in Ramadan. The last one, you know the waiter, when the Imam actually make a dua, they most of the time that's the dwad they do based on the habito Saraswati sakasa so I highly recommend you keep these papers with you. Right I mean it will be really nice all the papers you had put it in one folder. When Rama one comes in you have it ready there for you. And the more you practice it in sha Allah he will be able to memorize it vanilla, it's not very hard. It's just you need to get used to it. So I'm gonna read it
out. And then I'm going to translate healer and then we will go over it one by one by one. The data says like this. Have you thought of Swati? salatu salam that is actually narrated by Al Hassan Ali, his grandson, and it hasn't no it says I lemony Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam kalimat aku Luna fiocco naughty which I will translate Don't worry. And that is like this along my journey peyman had eight what alfine FEMA and our feet What's our land if he meant our late robotically FEMA are working in short Rama avoid inaho lady Luma
tabarrok late this is the way al Hassan Ali now rate and snare related in a Buddha would watermedia one nessa you may find it a little bit different in another narration. But everyone agree on this. There may be some additions. So if you hear some additions, it's another narration. This is what the roswaal leaders thought was missing. He said a hazard of not only his grandson says Rasul Allah usato sinner taught me the following taught me to say in a note meaning in the Georgia in the supplication that we normally do in the winter in the last row called the night we do it before or after record that's a different story. But the dog goes like this Allahumma Allah is me guide me
female had eight among those who have guided while Fini female athlete save me Give me health protect me We will explain among those who you have saved them. What what many females only take me protect me again we will describe in detail. What are we learning protect me among those who you protected or take me as a close ally to you like you had done with other people. While Berkeley faema operate Berkeley meaning Baraka meaning increase, puts blessings in what you already have given me. Working shawarma protect me Save me from the evil of what a degree a degree may bring in a whole layer, the Luma Wallet for sure. No humilation? We'll get to those who you befriend them or
protect them. tabarrok turban avatar late tabarka Bless you. Oh Allah, what eyelid elevated or glorified. That's a dua. Okay, I want everyone to read it. And look what Rasul Allah usato some teaching his grandson. Now again, we say this all the time. When you teach your family, what do you normally teach them, let alone your child or your grandson? What do you teach them? Normally, in general, something is very good. You want them to pay attention. That's probably one of the best they will need in their life. So how about when are Swati salatu salam teaches his grandson and who is his grandson signal Hassan How old was signal Hassan when he was taught to this just give a
guess.
Eight they say probably he was eight. Your law look what we teach our eight year old if we even teach them
right or we just let them to TV and the cartoons to teach them right? Because how do we know he taught him? Because that's what Satan hasn't said I lemony Rasul Allah, the prophet peace be upon him, talk to me, this so that you have if you look at it, and you have it in front of you, you're starting by saying Allah, Allah and then you are asking
Five things in between. and this is extremely important in a draw in a supplication. You're glorifying a lot. Every word, you're asking whether it you're glorifying and we're going to go through. So what are you asking Allah asking Allah to guide you, or guide us and asking Allah to give us health and save us from evil, we'll talk about it. And you want to love to be your protector and you are a close ally. And you want Allah to give you Baraka blessings in what you already have. You're not asking for extra already what you have, you want Baraka in it, and you want to be saved from evil. And then you're glorifying Allah
What is this do Ah, what did you so far Understood?
everything exactly. Everything in life. And how is that and another narration so Eden Anis said Cornejo, alumina rosu. He said, The ns are so heavy. He said the roswaal is autosar used to teach us this. Not me, this is something really important for you and me. And as I was preparing this for you, one of the scholars, I loved how he started. He said Subhan Allah and look at your feelings. And even in here, we do this job. They said people in general, when they hear this, do, they always like Okay, okay, let's, let's finish. So we'll get to the real job. And this is the real one.
You know what I'm saying when you hear this alone, my dinner a few minutes that you are okay, now I need but then I want I'm waiting for what I really want. Versus it should be. This is what we should ask. Because that's what was what he thought was taught us, he did get my point. So I'm not gonna wait and say, You know what, okay, I want to say law protects my children. He taught you v. They're saying that includes everything, don't invent the wheel. just memorize this because he was teaching it to his grandson, isn't he part of his family. So this is put this in your mind. So I need you to bring back the value inside you have this job. Enough. It's in which it's in a winter usually that's
even is the name of it is drought. So when you look it up, and when you read about it is Makana. autofill will fill you with I mean, when you look at it many ways, what's your roswaal as AutoSum used to say another word, or the application of an ode or URL, which are the application of fluids in which there is a single rock out we do at the last stroke of the night, whether before you sleep or after you sleep. So this is the name of it. Number one, let's learn what's a connote me.
You know this word.
When you read the Quran? What is the word mean? When you say on it, who was the woman who was described on it in the Quran? Say the marine. Right? I say, you know, Maria, so she was described as on eater. And who else say Abraham, and Abraham Akana mucha onita Lila, so you're in a grammar lesson. This is what
Ibrahim was a whole nation. One person equal to a whole nation on Italian, what's called?
submission
on what one of the meaning submission. obedience. Exactly.
There's one law another meaning. So it's, it's obedience, and its submission. And it is long standing insular.
long standing in solid on autofest Sala is when you stand long reading, so this is why I'm saying this because everything in this deed, learn the real meaning from the name Allah called it. So when Allah says do out, and that means when I am asking ALLAH and this, how is my status will be submission, humbled, I have nothing you have everything and take your time in asking. There is a longer version of it actually, there is more than one to follow. But I'm just going to focus on this one, at least you will learn and if Allah give us like maybe in the next one, we'll do the next one. So the first thing is, I want to be you want to be at least to struggle to be legacy dominium kanita
and one of the meanings of our quote is a stand still. Stand still you know who we are struggle in our Salah you still struggle in our center,
to focus to at least not to move parts of our body let alone the heart and to think of what we are saying. So this is the DA so when I lift my hand whether before or after Rico and I put my hand up and I am getting ready to make this job I need to remember this is a note I need to be quiet, still humble focus. So that's one now what are you asking a lot first, your Allah guide me among those
Whoo you guide it. Let's take it for one by four by one. What is guidance me? What is guidance? When you tell a lie, I'll be guiding me. You actually don't do this for yourself. You do it for your children all the time. Right? And you put yourself next put yourself first please. right because if you are guided Bismillah by His grace, your children will be guided. So when I say your Why didn't you Allah guide me or Allah guide all the Muslim? What is guidance me?
Sure, show me the right path. Good, huh? Show me the right path.
Okay, obedience to unlock your clothes. But number one, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No, that protection is coming next. Now you have to look, this is how you learn when you leave the door. He divided things. Right? So he separated guidance from protection from evil. That mean guidance mean means what? Let's think this way. Why do I disobey Allah? There's two reasons. Either I don't know. Right? Or I don't do true or false, either. I don't know. I have no idea. There's something called Witter for example. That there is one worker the end of the night there's some people don't know. All I know. And I've learned it and I know it by heart, but I don't do it. Why that's a different story. I'm lazy I don't
need to check on comes to me I'll do it tomorrow. All these reasons. So guidance means two of these. The two of them, your allotted to me, show me but more importantly, helped me to do it. helped me to apply it. So I know to move on. For example, we're going to keep talking about them. I want to get ready for it. I know for sure you all know at least the meaning that Saraswati salatu salam said muncom mon sama, Ramadan whomsoever fast Ramadan, he might not watch the Saba was fully belief with full certainty that Allah will reward him. And whosoever stands up in the night and Salah in Ramadan, also with full belief that Allah loves this, and Allah will reward him.
All his sins will be removed. We know this.
Why don't we don't.
So this is what you are asking Allah, Allah Teach me, a genie guide me, teach me. And as you are teaching me, helped me to apply it, and helped me to do it. You know, when you are when you know something, and you keep having this discussion, do with don't do it tomorrow, they after until week, next week, all this, this is when I'm the law to show me do it right now. And I will have the energy and I will have the resolve, you get what I'm saying. So le hedaya guidance law can you say to your, your baby guides my children? What do I really I'm asking ALLAH, your law, make them have the good company. That's good. That's guidance, your law, make them love the good company, your Allah and
this is extremely important, protect them from the bad company.
And let them see the bad company as bad company. Because that's another problem. We don't see evil as evil. We don't see it is hurting us. Or it's affecting us. For example, as a physician, we all know this. Somebody who has diabetes, if you have someone has diabetes in your family, right? What do you tell them? Don't eat sugar? Don't eat sweets, because it hurts you? Do they see this?
And they tell you what, what. So what is a small donut once a week is not going to hurt. And when they eat the doughnut? What's happening to you, if so much in pain, because you're seeing it. So this is what you're asking a lot that let them see. See that the donut is bad. But more importantly, give them the pill, the willpower to stay away from it. So Amy Freeman has guided me. And this is really we all need it specially for us who we think we know. Because a lot of us we learned and I always say this again and again and again. I say this, especially about St. Louis, how many Hello art you have attended.
Right? lost count how many classes how many seminars? Have I changed
it you get my point. And if I didn't change that I have a problem. It's not in the lecture. It's not in there in it's not in the knowledge it's there. It's solid. Why people some people two people one both hear the same. why someone completely change and what somebody don't change. That's what you're asking Allah
guide me, show me bring knowledge to me.
Make it easy. I don't have to go anywhere. I don't have to travel. You know, I'm looking for the internet and then the lecture comes up all these guidance, you don't pay attention to these, but these are guidance. These are all aging. And then make me sit down, have the patient to listen and push up on a way to tell me I know this. I've done that. I've heard this, oh, there's nothing new. Oh, I'm busy. My children needs me more. You know, all this. That's what you are. When you're asking Allah to guide me, you're telling Allah push all this away. And the most important thing is helped me to practice. Because I think, especially for this beautiful group that we see you almost every
week, is the problem is not the knowledge anymore. It's not the knowledge anymore. It's the practice. It's the practice. And this is actually more scary. Because the more I know, the more I will be asked, Why didn't you do it? So I turned to Allah says you're upbeat. This is what I'm telling Allah literally. I'm weak. I don't know right from wrong, show me and help me. See man had it. As you have guided people before, you're telling a lot two things. Number one guidance is from Allah alone. It's not because I listened to this lecture is not because I arrived. It's not because I'm so smart. is not because this is a very good speaker. That's not that it's a law, the one who
guide only. Please remember this so you never get
you never get arrogant. It's Lola forbo lai la colada. hermeto. Allah said the Torah su alayhi salatu salam, it was not for the grace of Allah and His mercy, you would have been misguided Torah swatting santosa. What kind of Allahu Allah carving and the grace and the blessings of Allah upon you was great, majestic. What about you and me? So every time I learn, and I see myself unchanging, short life to the better I think of the grace of Allah subhanaw taala upon and what you are asking a lot, it's the beautiful ima los portada put us all with them, that we will be with those who Allah guided, who Allah guided Allah, He came on levina and M Allahu Allah him. And then Nabina also do
you think was Shahada, your Salafi? Or Hassan Allah ecography Allah God did the following. He guarded of course the prophets and he guided
the martyrs and he guided the righteous people.
And I'm Allah who I think he might have been also the thing the one who really believed the martyrs or Shahada or soiling, I want to be with them. So when Allah entered them to Jenna, and they all go together, you're not i'm not left out. I'm with them. I mean, that's what you are asking Allah did you see what I'm trying to put very words this is the beauty of the linguistic beauty of this Deen and what Allah subhanaw taala gave us Wallis Auto Center. One word, one word has so many meanings. So you're asking a lot to guide you here. And to guide you there. And you're telling a lot It is not to me. It is you? You're gonna make it happen. That means nothing impossible. Don't tell me I don't
know how to be. I don't know how to read the Quran. Well, you know what? There's nothing impossible for Allah Don't tell me I don't know what they are saying there's nothing impossible for Allah that's me and my knifes my weakness and my shows one if Allah had guided somebody before me not everybody who knows this Deen speaks out true or false so if Allah guided those that means I can be guided to things I need I need to really wanted really wanted this is one of the main things we think we do. But I know how much we really do. And number two, that we need to put the efforts Don't you think visiting this knowledge getting close to Allah is free. There's nothing free in dunya let
alone and and I see this all the time with us ladies. You know you get so excited about a class then after two or three classes people drop out why
that's what you are asking Allah keep me any class I'm not talking about our classes, any class anything, don't you? Let's say Tom drops you out. And then he will bring it in this is this is one of the problems he put it sugar coated in a way that it is even closer to Allah. No, no. Anytime you took the path to get close to Allah, there's no other way. Keep keep on it. Any female headache number two alfine female athlete. What is our fear?
Everything good. Good for you. Meaning
what? What's up
I'll give it to you I fear I fear, basically. soundness, soundness from everything we always think of health. Health is part of it, for sure. But it includes everything includes health includes well being, including feeling good, including energy. They call it vitality, your that you are vibrant, you don't feel tired, you stood up and did six sericata only all I can do more. Why are the only wonders of the current only I can do more. I took care of my children and my husband and the house and now I have more energy to do something for myself. That's after you.
That's what you are asking a lot. Why Fini, female athlete? Same story. There's people before or with me. I see a friend I see a colleague could be part of my family that Allah gave them as a last year, meaning I am going to be healthy. And we always look at healthy external. Amin, amin without external health, a lot of the acts of worship will be difficult, right? If I'm not healthy, can I fast? Especially these days extra fast. For example, if I am not healthy, can I spend long in the night to do soda? If I am not healthy? Can I focus in my parent, let alone serve my family and children? But what about inside?
inside? Talk to me what is inside the problem?
There's no problem where Marshall lottomatica beauty
Okay, so what is what is the disease? What is external disease? You name it, it's there. small and big. What about internal?
internal, there's two groups and you're gonna tell me the details. There is disease because of my thinking. And there is disease because of my desires. These in general very easy to remember. So either I am thinking they called This is shuba. I am thinking in a way that's going to make me sick and ill with this D or no hamdulillahi Rabbil aalameen. But I am too weak in here for my desires. So let's talk about the desires.
Now what is these angels in this room today? Nobody's single word they don't even know much about what's
going on laughing Okay, huh?
Yeah, but give me detail.
What is desire? Think Simple, Simple. They don't want to money Jr. They told you I don't even have money. So it's not my I'm healthy. Don't we love food? Don't you love your coffee? And your tea? When I ask people why don't you fast Monday and Thursday. I can do without this coffee at 10 o'clock I'll get headache. And I always say it's not what do you do? Or Milan or Milan is different? What is it a Milan is different. It's the same. That's desire. Simple, Simple. This is what you're asking Allah as you need him. And I feel like when I look around, it's Monday. I see people around me are fasting and they are working like me. So I was like, What What did they have? I don't have Allah
gives me Laffy Allah make them sound internally. So their way of thinking and they're, they control their desires. So that's simple. What other
desires, your any.
Huh? For example, right?
Huh?
Okay, what is?
What is,
for example, chill out, chill out, you can translate to Islamic Islamic terminology. Chill out basically is laziness. Right? It's laziness, which we have talked about it last time. Remember, I'll do the Honeywell hazard ology, while kesar I seek refuge in You from being lazy. So chill out is what you know, you come back, especially for those of us who work or even if you don't work, but you work home, you finish dinner, you know, and you put everything in the dishwasher or you wash the dishes, and now you have no more breath. Right? So you're going to go on.
So Chyna, which basically is your lazy Meaning, if you're going to chill out and you're going to go to your room, and you're going to sit down in on the chair, and you're going to just do the curl that shit out. But that's a positive Cheeto. Most of us don't do that. shut out is. I'm not gonna say
exactly Bring me my tea. Well, maybe my biscuit and then lets me watch the TV and Allah knows what I am watching. If any female athlete there is people who are exactly like me, will have children will work who have responsibilities, but when everything is done, they have protected themselves from this. Did you get the point? So that's two, three. I'm I need more deeper
What about when you get upset and you want to talk about someone
asking if humans are fake meaning, keep me healthy and sound that when these feeding comes in, and I have the desire to talk, because I'm very upset, you don't know what they did to me. And when people remind you and say, You know what, but that's not pleasing to Allah, but you don't know what they did to me. That's how you answer. That's a disease. You asked for law to protect you. These are all desires, and there's so many, right? Thinking is another way.
It's actually more serious. And it's usually more with the education high, the more educated we get, when you say a lot doesn't mean my bad.
When you say a lot doesn't mean my worship. That's a disease of the brain. That's disease of shuba. A serious, exactly serious, because that's how shaitan comes to you. You know, you're perfect. you're serving this nation. you're serving this earth. Right? He doesn't need my son. I'm a very good human being. I don't hurt people, which is true. But we are sugarcoating it. Because we're not doing what he wants. I'm doing what I want. Did you get the point of any female athlete? And these two words? That means if there is people who have done it, I can do it? A law please help me You gave it to people please gave it to me. Please give it to me. Exactly. Like you say, and we all do
that. When you don't have children. And your sister has children. What do you say? Your law just like you gave her? Give me? That's right. There's nothing wrong with that, right? The same thing you do this, but unfortunately we our supplications is most about dunya. And we see dunia in it we saw life. So why are female female and a half eight and roswaal he thought was set up in another hand. He said Massa Allahu ma sweet Allahu Shea and have
nothing more beloved to Allah to be asked like allow for you to be sound and healthy.
Masada you That means it's something I have to ask. It's something we're not. It's not there. We normally have it when we are first born. But as we live and grow up, we get tainted. Dunya life changes changes us. So there is nothing more beloved to Allah then you ask Allah to be healthy, healthy externally unhealthy externally and he said that his It was his law he laughed for a laugh You asked Allah for forgiveness and for being healthy and sound fitting your upper body reacting higher Amina raffia human beings will not be given anything better after certainty in a law than being healthy. And again when you hear the word healthy, think of external and internal with a loss
pantalla if I can one 5k
marathon but I cannot control my desire that's not going to get me anywhere.
It may make me live a little bit longer if Allah wills but that's not going to get me there. Versus I want around the 5k because I want to be have a healthy body but I want to have a healthy heart also inside so when someone comes in really irritates me I am healthy and I can control my anger and I can control my tongue. And you know the other half when a younger man came to rasanya site or sit down actually he came to visit him and he saw him so thin and unhealthy like a chicken. And he said What did you ask Allah? What do you made? He said I said your Allah whatever you are gonna punish me in the hereafter. Give it to me now in dunya
Yeah, he said Subhan Allah, Allah, Allah. Allah is Exalted you cannot take it, meaning why you are asking this way. Right? And he said, don't do that. ask Allah Allah for Allah if you ask Allah pardon and forgiveness and ask Allah to be healthy and sound so don't forget this you always again we do this for our children all the time. You're lucky them healthy luck, keep them protected. hamdulillah but do this for yourself. So the two things alone Medina guide us among those who you guided. We're asking your Allah make us healthy, sound internal and external, as you did for others, and you can do it single or you can do it for everyone. The Hadith itself he taught seidner Hassan
in a single word, and Allahumma alfine Allah save me Allah make me help. But in general, you do it when you hear it. And in other words, in Ramadan, you hear it in the plural, because you're making the supplication for yourself, and for everybody. So two, three, what are one learning if you mentally lay out your army, and you go, protect me and guard me the same way you protect your army?
Yeah.
Who is it Olia from
when when the word will he comes to your mind what comes to you
Nick give me give me an example. So you'd know him and he said
those who follow the sooner it's way more than that.
All the MBA all the profits, it's not only a following the sun nights it's it's it's the special, a special status with Allah. special status with Allah, Allah certain sort of tools. Allah not only Allah He la homophone Allah him Wallonia, Hassan wordly Veolia, the friends the protectors the guardians that Allah is their protector guardians, close friends, all this law hopefully. No fear. What Ahuja has no no sorrow. Now Who are they? The description comes in the next day I levena amanu wakanow yet the
those who believe so believe is not alone. Believe and following the sooner isn't alone. Aha, what can you you're talkin what's the Aqua?
A loss conscious in every moment. And when you get to the point you're a bit I mean my last pantalla by His grace, give it to us. But with our deeds.
When you get to that point, you're not going to be looking at Holloman funnel anymore. Now the will of Allah is not past this long time ago. Don't say I am a Willie, of Alon you're still struggling with heroin. Or you're still struggling with doing the hula. You're still struggling with your Salah? No Will you have a law you know when you have when you really love for example, your mother and Allah is Exalted. But always when we think of human beings, we feel it and it becomes these your love Your mother, or your love your neighbor. Really good human being amazing human being right? When you're when you say she's a really good friend of mine, what does that you have two neighbors
one on the right one on the left, let's assume the left both are good, but the right is really good that you are that she's a special now you're getting my point. So there really is a special what do you do about this you're going to do everything that please her or him or them with not only with perfection,
you know, when you when you love your child and your child is coming home, and you're baking a cake, right chocolate cake? And you said no, no, no, this is a different one. Because this is for my child. So the Wali of Allah Allah is Exalted the will of Allah to get to there, because it's a two way relationship. You start acting and working, and he's going to get you by evening, by His grace closer and closer till you become there.
And that's when the protection of him is gonna come. So I'll worry that one who really, really look around for everything, and you need to put million lines under everything. This is not a special, this is the highest level. Everything that pleases Allah,
everything that pleases Allah, and stay from everything, that not only not pleased, but it's not the best way. You get my point. For example, should I come to the masjid for Salah or I stay in the house? It's worth so Alhamdulillah gerbrand I'm talking about food choice. I'm not talking about you have restrictions, food choice, right? driving on weedman and this is very common for everyone around us here. Right? So and it is our center. Right? Should I go and your home is very close. And hamdullah we all live very close to them. Should I stop and pray with them? Gema what I'm going to go home and pray your friend when he you have a lot there is no no. No doubt.
No, no issue is no fun. But absolutely the car will go to them as
you get the point me and Willie have a lot is the special human being. And these are human beings. These are not necessarily ambia and we are of course that's Allah chose them. But there is human beings. And I am sure living among us. living among us. These are human beings who have a special relationship with Allah, not based upon Who are they? How do they look, what do they do, how much money they make, that's nothing with a law is what do they do for a law? There's a lot of internal secret things between them and get our last panel with Allah. Allah subhanaw taala said a lot in the Quran. Allah who will be your living, Armen. Allah is the front protector of those who believe the
real Eman so the first question you and I were going to ask Amaya ye of Allah.
Can I claim this?
you get my point? Can I claim this? Show me? If my self is gonna say yes, I'm gonna tell her show me. What did you do for Allah that 90% of the people around me are not doing well everybody is praying hamdulillah everybody fast form of what I am doing things that only I, of course only Allah and then me knows I am doing it. So tell me if he meant our late that's what you are asking Allah. Did you get the point? This is really difficult. I cannot do it without a loss. pantalla wants me or he put the blessings and he will bring me closer to him. But I wanted
along these you wanted because that's why you're asking Allah. You're asking them like okay, I want to be guided. He's guiding you a lot. I want to be healthy and sound and I don't have I don't want to hate anyone. I don't want to have grudges in my heart that cause anyone. It doesn't matter what they did. And I want to be very close to you.
I want and then I turned to him sincerely with supplications What do you think he will do?
What do you think he will do? Do?
Of course, but what is the size? Of course isn't the law. Exactly. You will see things comes in your life. You don't know how this is happening. Things that will bring you close to a law you don't know how it is happening. Never. You use things you don't like it now it becomes so easy. Things you thought No way. No way I can do this. You don't know me? And then you surprise suddenly you find yourself so panela the feelings? This has feelings also really what's your feelings toward the last time let alone to even have a feeling or it's only a feeling of need when I need him? I'm turning to him and I'm in tears will cry.

So when you see someone right when you see someone and you watch you come to the masjid and you see a lady or you see one of them was standing in solder. Like for about 2030 minutes. What comes to your mind shouldn't be so careful what you give them. Right same I'm seeing a human being why I'm so Fiji after two minutes. Right? I'm too tired. My legs aches. I can't focus as you gave them gave me What? Three months only will he have a loss pantalla when you read about them.

woman. Woman. Right? And you see a lot of this woman no names added a worshiper, she worshiper no names, it doesn't matter who you are, is what are you doing? You know, the best and I wouldn't say the best but I will say
the first and the most important
action in this step your ob amin is your intention.
It has to be for Allah only. has to be has to be and the more tests you get, then you're going to say it's for you. You're that means when you say this, you don't see human beings anymore.
If they tell you thank you 100 love that and say thank you humbler, they invite your hamdulillah they didn't invite your handler it doesn't matter the people it's you and him Did you get the point? So I rely so huge word. I cannot claim it maybe you can i for shortcut because it's a higher state. So these are the third were byrdcliffe Hema Allah
bless me with all what you gave me. Now focus with bless me with everything you gave me. So number one, before you go to the DA you are acknowledging and that's part of your relationship with Allah it's everything you have is from Allah so what did Allah gave me and you Bismillah Let's count
number one you're alive yes you're still living yeah exam guide you and me and us to this beautiful Dean and to Him we don't think of this as as a right what else give me just five and then we will look at how he's gonna put bar canvas. Now let's say children. We all have to the number one is children in nema mwalimu como Laddu feature
wordly your wealth and your children is a test in a trial panel I look at every time we say anything children comes in. Right? What else? Baraka leafy mockolate. shelter, food, healthy, right status, clothing, safety, how home
Call. I can see I can swallow. I can. I'm sorry I can go to the bathroom. You name it in town, Danette Matala, he talks to her. If you're going to start counting the blessings of Allah He will not be able to count what might be coming here Amma tamina Allah, every blessing you have is from Allah to my dama Sakuma boyfriend.
Now you're saying to Allah, I acknowledge you give me all this. No, I want blessing. What is a blessing? What Berkeley Fima athlete. What is blessing me? Don't you also get one out Lord bless you. When you when you sneeze, and if I say Alhamdulillah you say your hammock Allah May Allah subhanaw taala bless you and shower you with mercy. What is the blessing?
What is the word blessing me Mama Mel Baraka Baraka, what is the word Baraka blessing is me.
That becomes enough for you.
Yeah, you're right. But the meaning of your absolutely or the meaning of it is a higher one gamma increasing, and for good in it.
Two things, I'll hire one NEMA, it's good. In it internally in it is good. And it is more. For example, this is very common example can easily be in the law here. I understand. You're invited five people to to dinner, and you arranged things for five people. For example, you had five cups, right? Suddenly you open the door and there is everybody brought their family. So there's 20 people after you have a heart attack, and then you wake up. Why? The borough coming back, lift him up, right? If you made this out right away, this five kebab or this is five bread or whatever the food that you made for five would be enough for these 20 and even leftover. That's albaraka.
This is the Baraka Did you see the point that said the Baraka is not always something tangible, I counted. For example, it's a Saturday and your to do list. If you look at it, by looking at them, you'll get tired, just by counting them, you know everything you have to do, especially those who have children who family work with your practice who cook all this by for, for example, on Saturday, you're done completely and you're not tired. That's Baraka. He puts the Baraka Did you see the point? Barkley Fima athlete. So I have a child, one child, for example, one child that Allah put in him or her, the blessings, the beauty, the Rama, the good care, the deen the manners, he or she is
equal to tential.
So Barkley, female athletes are four things you are asking Allah, that is not difficult. Of course, nothing is difficult for a lot, but we don't look at them as a priority. That's what I am trying to say. How many of us really, pray, make supplication for herself, that Allah guide her
daily?
Because this is a daily draw. If you who do Witter daily, this is a daily to guide me, we all do for the children again, but for me, so I need guidance. I'm asking a lot of guidance. I need to be healthy, external and internal. And I want to be close to your law. That's what you're asking. And then I don't want more. I don't want to work three jobs. I want to work one job, but the one job will give me enough what other people have to do three jobs to get the point. That's Baraka, or you have minimum, people look at you says, How are you living?
You know what I'm talking about? And you say,
it's beautiful. And it's like, What's wrong with her? Right? Because we don't know what Baraka mean. Because a book is not only external, Baraka is external Barclay, FEMA athlete, anything you give me fill it with Baraka now walking Shara makabe, this is the fifth draft the first part and protect me from the evil of the decree
of the decree. Now that's a tough one. Now you have to hear we may have to talk a little bit about arcade but believe
everything come from Allah is good. You have to know this is part of you and my belief. However, the good that comes from Allah, sometimes it's obviously good, but sometimes it is covered in something I or you, or we don't like.
So what are you asking? Allah Subhana Allah, if there is going to be an evil that's going to come with this decree and the evil could be in higher law
and the eve the decree can be in
evil and the degree decree can be in good a padala the decree of a law you could be absolutely fine everything we are having now is a decree of Allah. But also could you be in it is evil externally. For example, a son gets a son or a daughter a child gets sick externally This is something I don't like and I don't want so what are you seeing to Allah? The evil that maybe in this please protecting meaning the child gets sick what is the evil can be with us?
huh
that's what you always going to think you're going to think external. Now a lot I think the children child died. I'm not thinking of this. You have to think internally how I am gonna react to this illness of my child with Allah. Will I turn to him he says why my child? All my family's children are doing well. And look at my child. Know Kenny Shara McEvoy.
So when I am tested with something I don't like anything, when I'm asking a lot is to protect me from reacting to it in a way that's not pleasing to Allah.
Did you get the point? Because there's two people that children can be sick one he says Alhamdulillah which wasn't worse. And another person will say Why me? or, even worse, you say, you know what, I gave him the shot. And I told him I didn't send him to school, because everybody was sick and he still got sick.
So you have to be this is what you're asking him to protect you from things you say, that is not pleasing to Allah, let alone things you feel and things you react, walking in shadow mockolate
That's it. That's the
guidance, soundness, closeness to you. Baraka blessings in what you gave me and protect me from the evil. Now you turn to him because you wanted the inner katavi. When
you are the one, you are the one who decree and your decree is going to happen. No one else, this is what we have to believe. This is our belief, but we have to show no one else can change the decree of the law. No one else don't tell me your know what they what they can do. They can do nothing. unless Allah subhanaw taala allows it but we are still Please forgive me but we are still afraid from human beings. We still put the human beings sometimes as equal as Allah, even May Allah, May Allah forgive us all, sometimes even above our last Pantheon. But in Mecca ob What are you alike? And then you are still praising Allah? Waiting? No, no, now you're the lumen Wally. If you decide to
take me or you, as an ally, as a friend, as a protector, I will never be humiliated.
That's what you're saying to Allah. You know, when you say, Oh, I'm so happy, you're my friend. Because now I know for sure. And we say this, when I need something I know I have someone who will do it.
You know, I can count on you. I can depend on you. We say this, there's nothing wrong with that. As long as, as you are saying this statement, you know that Allah will make her do the things at a loss and you have to your life, but this feeling that you're fine. For example, you move to a new neighborhood, and then you find this, this beautiful sister is your neighbors.
As good, this is what you are turning on law. Now you're the lumen wallet, if you are my friend, if you are my protector, if you are my ilight I will never be humiliated. regardless what you're saying to yourself, regardless what people think of me. regardless what people say about me, this is a private relationship between you and our last Python layer, the lumen one, there is an addition which is not in this but it's an another narration. Well I assume an addict. What are you assuming that if you decide your law to humilate someone, no one will honor them.
You're telling yourself if Allah honkala decreed and May Allah protect us to humiliate me, no one can protect.
And can I read your exam, Melinda is with me. On also about wants to be dignified. And we all want I want to have status. I want people to love me. I want people to look up at me. It's only Allah owns them all. For the localizer to Jamia only a law, all the dignity all all owner is to is belongs to Allah subhanho wa Taala in the hula is illumine Malik. If you decide to take me as a worry, no one will humiliate
And the opposite is true. Finally, you're saying your law?
Yes, you we are and glorify your law, you know, at the end usual, like you're saying, Thank you. But normally Tomas pantalla, we don't say thank you for less pantalla We glorify, glorify Him. So look at the data and why we are doing all this series to change the way
ask Allah, how do we ask Allah number one, but number two, what I put this as number one is what I am asking Allah, I need you and I move from the narrow way of asking ALLAH, you know, give me give me give me give me? And then after two minutes, I'm done. Don't you sometimes look and say what are these people are doing? Now I was looking at the lines and I'm done with my draw. And you look around and see people for five minutes, or 10 minutes or 20 minutes while they are asking Allah.
This is what we are. We're trying to learn things way above, way beyond the small things move out from children and home and husband. These are dounia move to me with a law me with my after my family with the accurate with the hereafter my children with the hereafter. Ask them for a good wife. But why? And what's a good wife? Me?
I want a good job. What's a good job mean?
What's a good job mean?
Right? It's not a good job. It makes a lot of money. That's how we look at jobs. All of us. Why does everybody wants their children to be physician?
Somebody asked me this last weekend I was like, Can you tell me is being a physician? We'll go to Jenna for sure. Alhamdulillah I am very happy.
Everybody wants to children to be physicians. Why?
Because of the money? Because there's no other reason. Um, these are the answer you it's a secure job is or they say, I was like, okay, what's a secure job mean?
So it's I'm not saying I am a physician myself. I'm not saying but why it's only this Yanni. The point is we have narrowed what we want from a loss pantile can be a teacher. Yeah, they will make 40 or 50,000. But that teacher will be the reason why you as a parent will go to Geneva.
And that physician child could be the reason why he will you will or he or you or she or all will not be going to Gemini directly. So the DA is look at the priorities and the priority sets via los pantalla and set by our Swati software setup. Yes.
And that is the base.
Yes.
You know that's a blessing. Even if I try and fly and fly. I don't know.
What's the size that's it what what is the signs that you are willing to follow?
You claim whatever you want to clean but these signs actually what is the sign that you are aware of last one time?
I actually looked it up because I had a feeling someone will ask me.
Number one.
Absolutely no bottom one, you are in a state of remembrance of Allah all the time. Vic, you are the state of the
law basically known as the common man Shula. They call it the Vic. The status of remembering Allah all the time is a sign off, you are already of Allah. So the crew means what? Salah don't look at the color only my my tongue is moving. Liquor is Sunnah Vicar. So if I am if I am praying, I am in a state of remembering Allah. If I am reading Quran, I am in a state of remembering Allah if I go and visit a sick person, not because he's my friend, only because Allah subhanaw taala told me that all my servant I became sick and he didn't come and visit me and I say I am going to go and visit because Allah will ask me that civic Did you get my point? When you say this, Milan, your eating,
that's a big when you are for example, putting your clothes and you turn to the mirror and you make a joke out of the looking at the mirror, or this application when your dress when you're putting your dress. That's a dick. So the first sign off alula if you are in constant Vicar of Allah, not necessarily your lip is moving.
On the contrary,
but not every month, not as a habit every day. That's what I'm trying to make is not as a habit because all of us say so Panama will say it. But do you really know what you're saying? You feel it. You know what I'm saying?
So a vicar number one, that sign that you are aware of a lot you're getting there, you start missing it.
Not only number one, you're not struggling anymore, it's a habit. Natural, you're enjoying it and use it.
So if you are from the morning, the evening, you don't remember a lot, don't talk about tweet I
don't. Or if I Are you or we remember Allah only when I need him Don't talk about today.
For example, if you are a child again, child, you love the child, how often you remember the child.
Then you you compare.
So that's number one, a vicar. Number two.
obedience to a law becomes natural, you will love it. And absolutely extras, extras because you look at the obedience of Allah as a sign or as a way that I'm even getting closer to him that comes with it, you're not struggling anymore. With the obedience of Allah, let alone know haraam. Don't talk about we don't talk about getting close to Allah and that is harm in the house, or there's harm for any prohibitions in my life
in my life, and I usually either I by His grace, I get rid of them or he will remove them out of my life, or I don't like them anymore. That's a sign of a reader. So basically, you and then you see yourself as another sign you see yourself that you are that good deeds are facilitated for you.
facilitated for coming to the masjid and then you find that there's a janazah you didn't know that's a good we always used to say this when I lived there. They say you know when people call it of course mela bring us all these people used to call you and say you want to go to Morocco during the week. So I always say that's a sign of love once feeling. When someone calls you're in your homecoming for more. You want to go for amirav come and pick you up.
Yeah, that's a sign of hail. So when someone calls you and says you know what, tomorrow I am fasting you want to fast I will break the fast together.
That that's a sign that Allah subhanaw taala is facilitating the good deeds to you. Now pay attention when the other way around happens because that's very common. Someone calls you and say there is this and that an act of disobedience. You could be a Willie of a law because the answer will be absolutely no.
But if you are not then don't talk about today. So when Allah facilitate the hire for you, V. The easy a bad one of the signs of a we lie
a lot.
Hi, everyone.
I add a slide.
Oh.
So we're going to wrap it up with the size of one of the signs of Ahluwalia as well last pantalla always gives you victory
gives you a victory. So someone transgress over your rights. You go under huge problems and Allah will give you victory at the end. Absolutely Allah will you live in harmony when Allah says I am the protector of the real believers of the believers? This is one of the signs and one of the other sizes your data is always granted and do our job. Absolutely because and then you have to look at this. It is not it's not a one way relationship. It's a two ways relationship. And he actually have a law when he asked he or she asks for what is their status? What's the status of their heart? How they are talking to Allah. What do they say versus non Willie. And when he when he turned to
allowances, I have been transgressed. You are the only one who will protect you. versus someone who says you know what, I'm going to call that and this and this and that and then I was pantalla will protect you see a difference. So the signs of all wilaya is Jani it's a very rarely I wouldn't say anyone can claim this but there's signs one of the signs of will relay that Allah loves you. And this isn't a claim. And the signs of fault law loves you there's many signs one of them people loves you. Not because who you are, not because of the status you have or the money or the or the job you have a lot for the love of a human being in you, even those who don't know that's one of the signs
mahad but Allah I mean this always has had its behind it. So the will of Allah it is nothing from dunya standards. Not necessarily the Wali of Allah is very rich Could you be extremely rich could be very sophisticated would be could be very educated but also could be someone who you don't even know someone who you will not turn your face to. I always used to say this when I go for tawaf, you know all these millions are doing I was lucky Allah Who is that person from among these she or he is the special one for you.
You can never tell everybody's wearing the same especially in hajj there is it's an L wilaya is an internal number one's an internal feeling translated to an external actions and what we can always do it as homeless pantalla that's what your What's our linefeed mental elite your Allah protect me guide me Make me of those who you choose as a special Europeans panicle animal with a shadow
stuff glucotrol booty so Allahu ala Sayidina Muhammad Allah Allah He was hard for us to look at is long for you.
