00:00:41--> 00:00:53

when you want to connect with someone, not connect, reconnect, what makes you reconnect with somebody? Now we're going to take you through it. What makes you reconnect with someone? I want to hear it.

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

Because you like them?

00:00:59--> 00:00:59

Okay.

00:01:00--> 00:01:03

That's it. And if you don't like them, you don't connect.

00:01:05--> 00:01:05

I'm sorry.

00:01:06--> 00:01:12

I can't hear you. So you need you like them? Love them. You need them.

00:01:14--> 00:01:16

You benefit from them?

00:01:18--> 00:01:20

Yeah, why do you want to communicate with them?

00:01:24--> 00:01:27

I can't use the pin

00:01:28--> 00:01:48

to get but why why the start with you want to reconnect? There has to be a reason to reconnect with someone. So you love them. You need them. Right? You trust them? You rely on them. Right? You benefit from them. You think they can help you? Right? Okay, so I hope you're getting the point now.

00:01:50--> 00:01:53

To reconnect with Allah subhanaw taala you have to have one of these.

00:01:55--> 00:02:06

And the reason we are not connected with Allah subhanaw taala as we all are, but not as much as we should be, or we want to be because one of these or maybe all of them, or one of them is missing.

00:02:07--> 00:02:11

And I'm going to start with what is next week, what does this country celebrate next week?

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

Everybody knows.

00:02:17--> 00:02:20

So I'm going to start with a love of Allah subhanaw taala.

00:02:21--> 00:02:25

And I'm not talking about I love you the way we say it from the tip of our tongue.

00:02:27--> 00:02:30

How many of you now, again, the camera is on me. So don't worry.

00:02:32--> 00:02:33

Say I love Allah.

00:02:38--> 00:03:28

I doubt anybody will not raise their hand. Okay, so I'm going to take you through. What does love of Allah mean? What is the science? And we're going to find I will find how truthful I am or how much I am a clever, or I think I love but I am clueless about the love. And then once I find if I am where I should be at Hamdulillah I just need to keep going. If I am not which most of us will find we are not just to give you a heads up and disclaimer. We're going to see what should we do? Because I want Ramadan exactly in less than two months now because this is Rajab, I want to get to Ramadan, and my relationship with Allah is very strong. Right so I can get all the benefit. And I can treat it and I

00:03:28--> 00:03:34

can get stronger and I can leave and I'm even better. So number one, what is love?

00:03:35--> 00:03:45

I'm not talking about Allah subhanaw taala I'm talking in general, when you say to somebody, I love you, your child, your spouse, your parents, what does it mean? I love you

00:03:46--> 00:03:49

see basics, what is love mean?

00:03:50--> 00:04:35

I'm sorry, attachments, that's definitely number one. Your attach that person she or he? Right? And you feel you always want to be with them. And you miss them. And you always want to talk to them. You worry about them. You want to do things to please them. And if they get upset, you're sad. If they decide to leave you, you get very sad, true or false? Like everything I'm gonna say to stick it to Allah subhanaw taala how many of us can you hear me? Say I'm not gonna say claim. I miss Hola.

00:04:37--> 00:04:41

Alhamdulillah how many of us can say here?

00:04:42--> 00:04:44

I really want to talk to Allah.

00:04:45--> 00:04:46

I don't need anything.

00:04:48--> 00:04:51

I don't need anything. Everything in my life is going perfect.

00:04:52--> 00:04:55

I'm not saying when we need Allah, Allah when we need to.

00:04:57--> 00:04:59

How many of us says if he

00:05:00--> 00:05:02

He's upset with me. I'm so sad.

00:05:06--> 00:05:19

And how many of us can say and I'm gonna say claims say, I really want him to be happy with me and when I see and smiling, not him Subhanallah but I'm just making it closer to you. It's this is my day

00:05:23--> 00:05:30

okay Alhamdulillah you all are thinking. So let's say where is the world? How many people here speaks Arabic?

00:05:31--> 00:05:44

A good number. What's love in Arabic? Hope everybody knows it. Right? And it's only two letters. And it's one of the two easy letters to say. And there's a reason for that. What does the word hug mean?

00:05:45--> 00:05:46

The word itself

00:05:48--> 00:06:07

and this gonna tell you what is love is I'll share it with you for any of you want to read. It's one of the best people who wrote about this as a reminder of not I am Kim, my daughter, just Sadie King. I mean, you read this and you say your Hola, what did you give him? That he is writing this this? This book is more than 1000 years old.

00:06:08--> 00:06:37

Amazing what he said this is a man. What I can say obviously absolutely connected with Allah. Absolutely love Allah. Absolutely no Allah because from the words he's saying, so the hope he said number one, the meaning of the word. Right? It's not love because love in English is different. But the word that means one of the meanings of it is purity and whiteness. And they said they have herbalist now that the teeth are white, in Arabic, so pure.

00:06:39--> 00:06:51

Just memorize this and then it's gonna come to the law. So number one, number two, the humble mean the word hug me something is very obvious. Allah, Allah will empower something cannot be hide, cannot be hidden.

00:06:53--> 00:07:10

Is that clear? Now you look at her or you look at him and says he's in love. Look how he looks at her. It's obvious. Okay. 103 one of the meanings of love is that Lulu was so bad, it's stable, it's fixed doesn't change.

00:07:11--> 00:07:40

And I'm talking about when you are in love you will you say well, people change later on that. That's true. But when you are in love at that moment, you feel you're that's it. People tell you, it's not good for you. You don't know them. You don't know her. You don't know him. So I lose him. It's something fixed inside you. That's third meaning number four meaning of the word hotbar. Hubbard is a lobe is the inner core of the heart.

00:07:41--> 00:07:54

And where is the law of your seats here is she's living in my inside, he is living in my heart. They left this especially mothers, they say this when the children leave to call it says part of my heart went

00:07:55--> 00:08:17

hamdulillah y'all are not all nodding your head was one of the very common things. Also, we all came from back home or if you want to google it, for those of you who born raised do something very beautiful. And it's very natural. And it's very healthy. Unfortunately, we don't do it much. It's a container called when you put the water in it before the time of fridge.

00:08:18--> 00:08:19

It's called hemp,

00:08:20--> 00:08:35

which basically is a clay container. I have one in my house after you put water in it, it will purify it. And it is taste and cold. So is when you protect something.

00:08:37--> 00:08:47

So you love somebody, what do you want to do? You worry about them. You want to protect them, and you want them to be yours. You hold on them.

00:08:48--> 00:08:49

And yeah, that's

00:08:52--> 00:08:58

the one more Yep. So to love someone, it's actually five things, to love, to love.

00:09:00--> 00:09:01

It's obvious on you.

00:09:03--> 00:09:07

And now we're going to come how it is obvious on me when I love Allah and when I'm not.

00:09:08--> 00:09:27

And number two, it's constant. It doesn't change. So the day of Ramadan, I'm so close to Allah the day of aid, things changed. Tomorrow I have an exam I am mice Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah. Right. And then I'm done with my exam and I go with my friends and Allah knows what I do. And this is everybody.

00:09:28--> 00:09:55

Three, it's obvious on you and it's pure. You cannot I mean, don't allow anything else. It's this is extremely important. You do not allow anything to mix with it. You say you can love somebody else who say no, no, these are my friends. But this is the person I love. Unique. Only one and it's stable and it doesn't change and it penetrates inside your heart.

00:09:57--> 00:09:59

What is the sign that you

00:10:00--> 00:10:01

love Allah Now

00:10:04--> 00:10:05

you all claimed

00:10:06--> 00:10:10

you all raise your hand. Right? So what is the sign?

00:10:14--> 00:10:32

Okay, well at least you know the words but you're saying it like that. You didn't hear it I did. Number one sign when you love someone I'm gonna say love someone that will come to Allah. You go out with them you don't like coffee, but you love them and they say try it what do you do?

00:10:34--> 00:10:37

You tried and you don't like it the same room tastes good

00:10:40--> 00:10:41

because you love them

00:10:43--> 00:10:49

that's number one sign you love Allah subhanaw taala you do everything he told you.

00:10:52--> 00:10:53

Then you will not

00:10:54--> 00:11:39

hold in quantum to her Boon Allah Octavia, only your common law. Say If you love me, if you love Allah, follow me. Roswaal risotto sand and Allah will love you. And I'm gonna come at the end of the sign that Allah loves you. This too. It's two ways. I love him. And then he loves me. And I'll end up with what is the sign that Allah loves you is not dunya by the way, nothing to do with material things. And we all say, Oh Allah who loves me, you know, he gave me this. On the contrary. On the contrary, and I'm going to start with this, I ended up with this. Remember this hadith of Rasul Allah salatu salam, I remember it every time I am in the plane. You know, when you're looking like

00:11:39--> 00:11:55

spoke, especially when you're about to land and you see all the land under you, and you see the whole, as if it's the whole earth. And I remember this hadith, too. But this one related to hope that Allah subhanaw taala since the day he created this earth, He did not look at it.

00:11:57--> 00:12:23

Since the day he created this earth, He didn't look at it. You know, when you do something and you don't like it, you don't want to see it. And Allah the other one says, if Allah subhanaw taala, if this earth worth in the sight of Allah subhanho wa taala, the Wingo for mosquito, a wing for mosquito, not the mosquito, the wind, he will not have given the disbeliever a sip of water.

00:12:24--> 00:12:50

So let's put the disclaimer from the beginning that faculty have no duniya or you have material you have beauty, you have everything you want. I do we all do. That's not a sign that Allah loves. From the beginning. No way Allah loves the disbelievers. And you have you see, so many of them have everything in boy. So the sign that I love Allah subhanaw taala. Now I, the sign number one,

00:12:51--> 00:12:55

I obey him unconditionally.

00:12:58--> 00:12:59

unconditionally,

00:13:00--> 00:13:23

is not when I can, when I need when I am in a good mood, and when I am alone, but when when I am with my friends unconditionally. Number two, this is designed to me this is the sun. How many of you let's say today, you had to make a decision. Something in today you need to make a decision as simple as do I go right or I go left?

00:13:24--> 00:13:31

Do I go to icon or I'm going to listen to it online? How many of you have made a decision today? I mean, most of us

00:13:33--> 00:13:33

if

00:13:35--> 00:13:36

all the time

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

when you make a decision,

00:13:39--> 00:13:46

the reason that you made that decision is because is this is what Allah wants. You will love him.

00:13:48--> 00:13:58

They call it will ROV is titled maboob When the beloved one is more more important and beloved, that the new and what other people likes.

00:13:59--> 00:14:03

And look at all of us what makes you make a decision in life.

00:14:05--> 00:14:07

Any decision as simple as buying a car,

00:14:09--> 00:14:17

renting a house, going to college, moving to a country moving to a state, what makes us make decisions.

00:14:19--> 00:14:28

I want to hear it let's talk. I know this is a tough subject. This is one of the toughest subjects because it exposed me. It exposed my claim.

00:14:29--> 00:14:30

What?

00:14:32--> 00:14:33

I can't hear you

00:14:35--> 00:14:59

so it's benefited me in number one reason why you're doing it. The answer is I like it. I like it. I love it. It's nice, it's cool. Everybody else is doing it all these. It benefits me somebody else tried it. How many of us that decision is Allah wanted. I'm done. I don't like it. I'm doing it.

00:15:01--> 00:15:06

It's very hard on me but he wanted I'm doing it and you're Allah make it easy. How many of us?

00:15:08--> 00:15:17

Just to give you an example it's true. Satana Hassan basally he said the following what make him take make decisions.

00:15:18--> 00:15:25

And I've said that I think I've shared this with you before, but let's say it again that can remind people with me remind myself, I've never looked with my eyes.

00:15:27--> 00:15:31

Never mouth, never looked with my eyes.

00:15:32--> 00:15:35

Never heard anything with my use,

00:15:37--> 00:15:40

never used my hand and never walked.

00:15:42--> 00:15:43

But

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

look, not worth I look

00:15:49--> 00:15:55

is this is in obedience to Allah subhanaw taala or this is a disobedient

00:15:56--> 00:16:17

This is disobedience or this is obedience. And look at the next the next is literally makes me I was like your Allah give me what you gave him. And he say in kind of your law, if this is obedient to Allah, I'm doing it to Adam to use this word without in Arabic. I'm doing it. And this was disobedience. I moved back

00:16:20--> 00:16:21

what make us make decisions.

00:16:23--> 00:16:27

I say this to myself before anyone is a lot even in the equation

00:16:29--> 00:16:34

is it's Allah loves that Allah likes that. Don't do it. This is all what we say.

00:16:36--> 00:17:04

Again, I don't like it. It's not what everybody does. What people will say about me or what people will say about us where it is, and I always say this to myself where it is Allah 100 equation. So second sign, you will love Allah. Second sign your love of life is what he wants is a priority. What pleases Him is I'm doing it. What is not pleasing him. I'm not doing it. Number three.

00:17:06--> 00:17:11

And these are all practical things. How many of us have disobeyed Allah today?

00:17:13--> 00:17:14

Come on.

00:17:16--> 00:17:27

Right? At least we are honest, and then he will help us. What happens when I disobeyed Allah, I'm not talking about major things, you know, delayed my salah. What happened when I did that?

00:17:29--> 00:17:30

Nothing

00:17:31--> 00:17:38

at all. Allah has reformed Allah, he's gonna forgive me. If you love Allah, and I love Allah and I claimed it.

00:17:39--> 00:17:46

Anytime and every time I disobey Him, I see it like mountains.

00:17:48--> 00:17:53

And I see that his forgiveness is a possibility. But it's not for sure.

00:17:55--> 00:18:02

If you see this, so when again, think of somebody you love, really love, and they got upset with you. What do you do?

00:18:04--> 00:18:31

Really love you're attached to that person, and they got upset with you because of something you did? Or I did. Or you said what? How do you feel? Number one? Guilty? Why did I say that? Please forgive me an imagine this person doesn't? What do you feel sad? You try calling people go and talk to him or her. Let somebody change their mind. I can do this.

00:18:32--> 00:18:35

And when we do it with Allah subhanaw taala nothing.

00:18:37--> 00:18:45

Nothing. Allah is off or behind. When you learn hamdulillah he's off. All right, otherwise, what we're going to do, so that's number three.

00:18:46--> 00:18:47

Number four.

00:18:50--> 00:19:16

The words he used in Arabic. May Allah help me to translate and I'm going to say it says a good number of humor. He said Ma Nakata. Bah Bah, you know, told him Hollister hugging the obedience of Allah and pushing away for disobedience, then you love him. It's the same way and everybody in this room is going to do within two in two months, less than two months. They are from Oman. Why don't you drink water?

00:19:17--> 00:19:18

It's Halloween.

00:19:19--> 00:19:19

Why?

00:19:20--> 00:19:24

Because you're hugging the obedience.

00:19:25--> 00:19:38

And people especially if you work with you work with non Muslims. What do they tell you? It's a sip of water. What is the big deal? And you say no, it's horrible. I'll do it after my group. And you're so happy. You're hugging the obedience.

00:19:39--> 00:19:49

It's time to heal in taraweeh at nine o'clock, after a long day and your work or you're in college or two jobs, you still come here for two hours. Why?

00:19:51--> 00:19:59

Because you're hugging them the obedience remember this? Because this will keep you strong. And I say this to myself all the time. If I can do with the Ramadan I can do with that.

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

Outside Ramallah

00:20:02--> 00:20:13

no one said this. This is May Allah given to all of us he said, Sign You will love him, which actually you love anybody, you give him

00:20:14--> 00:20:15

your will.

00:20:17--> 00:20:45

Your resolve your your actions, and your time and your money. The one that you love the best of your time, the best of your money the best when you're the best of your ability to the person you love. If you do this will love the new love. What do we do? As one of my teachers one time looks at me and says don't give Allah the leftover time of yours.

00:20:46--> 00:20:47

She was right

00:20:48--> 00:20:54

when I was reading Quran to her and obviously I was very tired and she said don't give Allah the leftover

00:20:57--> 00:21:00

we all work when if somebody gives you left over what do you say?

00:21:01--> 00:21:09

If you are very polite and you're gonna say no thank you I'm not hungry. Right? And if this is somebody who knows like I'm not eating the leftover

00:21:11--> 00:21:30

and we give Allah who are left over time I don't I will never remember this word. How did she use it? To hit a point? So he says the sign your love of last pantalla you're given the best of everything. Best of your time. Best of your money, best of your resolve best of your focus.

00:21:31--> 00:21:56

This is a very nice story. Any one of you know in Junaid, have you heard this name? Okay, well Junaid is legendary in Love of Allah, and in acts of worship. So this is a true story as reported by one of the scholars. He said we were sitting together imagine the scene. He said we were scholars sitting in the courtyard of Makkah,

00:21:57--> 00:22:20

looking at the Kaaba Allah and discussing the love of Allah. Imagine what they are saying. And then they said, we saw a young man, he's from Iraq, and he said, hi to my indicare Iraqi is a young boy. And he said, Okay, the young Iraqi boy, tell us what you know about love. And look what he said.

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

Just give me your heart and ask Allah subhanaw taala for one day to give us all this just one day before I die. And he said four o'clock Arosa, he put his head down, and his eyes starts shedding tears. And he said,

00:22:36--> 00:22:44

the servant who love Allah, the slave who love Allah is a slave, moving away from what he loves,

00:22:45--> 00:23:16

always connected with the remembrance of his Lord, standing to do his duties, looking at him with his heart, if he speaks, speaks by him, and if he uttered a word is by him, and if he moves, he moves by him. And if he sit, he sits with him. He is always with Allah and by Allah and for Allah, that slot.

00:23:20--> 00:23:22

And now told me We love Allah.

00:23:24--> 00:23:41

You speak, because he told you to speak? And you don't? Because he told you not to? Meaning is not one. What I'm saying is not pleasing to Him. Everything I do is for him. I don't see human beings. I have seen people like that. Now.

00:23:43--> 00:23:50

It's everything is the answer is he doesn't like it. That's not how you should do it. Because that's what you told you and the he is always

00:23:51--> 00:23:52

no human being.

00:23:54--> 00:24:07

That's a column of a biller, by Allah the more you will in case you wonder how we're going to get this and I'll give you the some things at the end. If you are connected with a las Panatela

00:24:08--> 00:24:25

all the time, he will show you a lot in love Edina had no. This is something you don't read in books, this is something you do not memorize. This is something you learn and you practice. And the more you give up things for him.

00:24:26--> 00:24:56

And as simple as a coffee and as simple as a tea as simple as your beauty and all the other things you know, when he's with you know happiness in this world. If you have the millions and if you have everything you want no happiness ever lasting other than when you are with him. Walking linear level again. Try it and if you find something else come and tell me Subhanallah

00:24:57--> 00:24:58

how do I learn it?

00:25:00--> 00:25:01

Where do I start?

00:25:02--> 00:25:13

It's very simple. And most of us does it. But we don't do it with full heart said number one, nothing will get you close to him other than his words.

00:25:15--> 00:25:17

His words, if you love somebody,

00:25:18--> 00:25:34

and you want that person to love you, what do you normally? Do? You send them a text, let's say it's a writer. What do you do? You send him a text message, or you send out a text message with some lines from their book.

00:25:35--> 00:25:39

Or if somebody wants to love you, and you wrote something.

00:25:40--> 00:25:48

And now you look at the phone and you'll see exactly your words. You can aspire said, wow, this person really knows me.

00:25:50--> 00:26:01

Through our phones, we asked you, all of you, especially the youth are smiling. I like that because it's true. Say wow, they pay attention to my details. Or they say the same word you say?

00:26:02--> 00:26:03

Right.

00:26:05--> 00:26:07

Set clear auto Quran.

00:26:08--> 00:26:39

Be the board. That's the next word. You read it. And you try to reflect as much as possible. Take your time. Take your time, one verse a day for one hour more than enough. Who's Who's rushing him? Who's putting the stopwatch for him? Clearwater Quran because it's his word, a savior of man. This is what one of the signs in the school where I studied, says Save not man said lo and behold at coluna mashrabiya from economic Rabina

00:26:41--> 00:26:45

if our hearts were pure, we will never have enough from his words.

00:26:46--> 00:26:47

But we are too busy.

00:26:48--> 00:27:06

To visit the heart. May Allah help the heart I say this. It's full of meat not you full of junk. I see a lot of things. You know how you know you have a lot of things in your heart when you're alone. Completely alone. The phone is dead. Are you quiet?

00:27:07--> 00:27:11

There's so many things in there. He just wanted to like just just

00:27:12--> 00:27:31

just give me a minute with nothing. Because it's full. So number one are a lot of Quran. Number two, extra good deed not the bare minimum. Bare minimum will not get you there. No, we're looking at love. I'm not looking at relationship.

00:27:32--> 00:27:35

Excellence. Don't tell me it's sunnah.

00:27:36--> 00:27:38

Don't finish Russia and run to your phone.

00:27:40--> 00:27:48

Monday, why don't I fast? It's 12 hours. Some of us when we are working with don't even have time to sit.

00:27:49--> 00:28:07

Why not? Why giving, we're not giving a charity. Why not forgiving somebody? Why not helping someone? Why not respecting the house of Allah. These are all extras. And the more I do extra, again, back to the human being love to people.

00:28:08--> 00:28:17

Very nice to you. Everything is the same. But this person she or he, they just do a little bit extras. Which one you love more?

00:28:18--> 00:28:29

Which one you love more? The one who does little bit extra. For example, they both are bringing you let's say tea. Right? And that person who loves you.

00:28:31--> 00:28:35

He brings you the tea and says you know what? I put a little gray because that's what you like.

00:28:37--> 00:28:37

Extra.

00:28:39--> 00:28:40

It has to move you.

00:28:42--> 00:29:01

That's how it is. So Allah looks at all of us. We all are standing in Salah. But then you're doing a little bit extra. You're in your sujood and you're talking to him from your heart begging him to forgive you. I don't care what people think of me, Latinos. And he was saying

00:29:02--> 00:29:08

she gave me two minutes of her focus of her breath of her heart

00:29:09--> 00:29:18

extras Don't be miser I say this to myself all the time. Don't be mindset. We want to everything extra in life. Everything has to be extra.

00:29:19--> 00:29:23

Who is okay with driving a car 2010 Six who already

00:29:24--> 00:29:35

but it's okay if I do have a loss on our 2010 Six. May Allah forgive us extras. Extra extras. Three. When you love someone you remember them.

00:29:37--> 00:29:52

If you truly love them, they're always in your mind. Actually in another book he says the sign your love someone is that person he or she is the last thing you think when you go to bed. And the first thing you think of when you wake up

00:29:55--> 00:29:56

is that Allah

00:29:58--> 00:29:59

kadcyla to decree law

00:30:00--> 00:30:45

Let's moist our tongue with the Allah's remembrance and 23 hours. Let's do whatever we want to do. Instead of saying, Wow, let's say subhanallah instead of saying thank you let's see Jackie now here, this is all this is all demanders instead of saying how are you you see Santa Monica. That's a Doha. Actually that's supplication to you and to me, I always tell people don't you want me to pray for you? They look at you told me Salam Alaikum I'm gonna pray for you. I'm gonna say well I have a concern cathedra to victory now. Literally, there is a driver who when I go to gender is a driver of my friend. He always picks me up and takes me to mark this man. From the moment from today it's an

00:30:45--> 00:30:58

one hour at least to drive till we get to wherever we need to get in Makkah is nothing but Decker. I used to call him a duck. When my friend says that he's going to pick you up a driver is going to pick you up I said does that cut

00:30:59--> 00:31:02

Salalah maybe Ali saw it was none ending

00:31:03--> 00:31:10

it this is I witnessed. I like even sometimes I'm dozing. I wake up and I hear aloneness on the other side now.

00:31:11--> 00:31:13

And if you know his life story,

00:31:15--> 00:31:28

literally because I asked him I was like, You know what, what is this in this man that is always memorable to biller is always connected with Allah is full of tragedy. Anybody else will be long list of complaint

00:31:30--> 00:31:32

Kathira to the Karela for

00:31:34--> 00:31:38

to get to the love of Allah give up something you love for him.

00:31:40--> 00:31:43

Every single day, each one of you start.

00:31:44--> 00:31:55

Even if it's simple, even if it is nothing, even if it is small, doesn't matter. Small in your eyes is big in Allah's eyes, give up something for him.

00:31:56--> 00:32:01

From today, put a list of the things you love. Don't give up something you don't like.

00:32:03--> 00:32:15

Give up something you love, like what we do in Ramadan. We love food. We love to sleep, we love drink, but we do it for Allah nobody else is telling us to do.

00:32:16--> 00:32:25

Start giving up this is one of the ways to get you close to Allah is when you give up things for him. Subhan Allah

00:32:27--> 00:32:31

the names of Allah subhanaw taala the science that's forgotten.

00:32:33--> 00:32:35

It is just names on the wall.

00:32:36--> 00:32:42

Am I right? And I'm not going to tell you who told me and memorize it and how many bloods beautiful

00:32:44--> 00:33:02

one anytime I speak about the names of Allah subhanaw taala this verse right away come to me which is in surah Al Anon winder, Homer Fatiha he owns the keys of the unseen, not the unseen, the keys of the unseen lie Allah Maha Illa who no one knows it, but when

00:33:04--> 00:33:13

I look at the next one, it was very windy today. And I'm sure when you left your home you saw so many things on the floor, right? leaves or miters hot Omaha

00:33:15--> 00:33:21

not a single leaf that falls on this earth. But Allah knows it.

00:33:23--> 00:33:32

Not a single leaf. Not in Orange County, not in your background. Backyard. Not in the states in the Amazon in Africa everywhere.

00:33:34--> 00:33:36

Illa Allah Maha wala Humberto

00:33:38--> 00:33:47

when our habits in the automatic are well our auto beam Wilaya was not a single seed in the bottom of this earth era.

00:33:49--> 00:33:57

Not a single moist, saliva tears fluid, any fluid, but he knows

00:33:58--> 00:34:12

he could have been moving. Imagine if every single day I spend five minutes teaching myself number one and teaching the people with me in the house about one name of Allah

00:34:14--> 00:34:30

what will happen to my heart and yours and what is gonna happen to the relationship? Friend of mine verbally just texted me yesterday writing it it's so beautiful. I was like she's gonna give me a good news. You should I was just diagnosed with cancer

00:34:32--> 00:34:33

not even 14

And she said she's studying with us the names of Allah's Pantanal said immediately came to my mind and it will have

00:34:43--> 00:34:51

he is the one who was giving this scumming from him. It's all good. I couldn't believe when I was reading this. This is living with us.

00:34:52--> 00:34:56

The reflection on the names of Allah subhanaw taala get you so close to

00:34:57--> 00:34:59

it's not only one time they

00:35:00--> 00:35:05

li daily pick up a name, just read the translation and look around you.

00:35:06--> 00:35:17

You don't need to read books, just one name and look around you and you will see a very name is in front of you in action. And no

00:35:18--> 00:35:20

and half him

00:35:21--> 00:35:23

any of the names

00:35:27--> 00:35:28

and will have were here

00:35:30--> 00:35:45

right? And you can get to more and more and more of the names names of Allah get you so close to him. And he seemed here is not knowing he said no Carla had told me that words in Arabic by itself is when your heart starts seeing it

00:35:47--> 00:36:06

is not reading there is reading and there is reading I see it. I see Allah has operating. Allah is moving give me I see it I see Allah brought to me. I see Allah has guiding me. I see Allah is not very happy with me. This one you know him when you know his name,

00:36:07--> 00:36:10

and six, which we all are.

00:36:14--> 00:36:17

Full of it is when you start seeing the blessings of Allah when you

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

blessings of Allah on you. And you know what's blessings, we think of, oh, I don't have a house.

00:36:26--> 00:36:28

I'm renting.

00:36:29--> 00:36:38

I didn't go to the college I want. That's the blessings. We don't see the blessing, the fact that I'm sitting and looking at you, and you're seeing

00:36:39--> 00:36:44

the blessings, we have this, what did I do I say this to myself, What did I do to deserve this?

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

Finest?

00:36:47--> 00:36:55

What did I do to be born as Muslim? And then I don't have to worry where I am going to need. What? What did I do?

00:36:58--> 00:37:16

What did I do to live in this beautiful state. And some places today they are in gray, they are full of snow and ice. And here we are 55 whining? You know when we say why be when something not good happened to us, it should be the other way around?

00:37:17--> 00:37:20

Why me? What's so special

00:37:21--> 00:37:34

1000s of human beings around literally this morning, I was filling the gas and I was looking at somebody filling the gas. Right? And obviously Allah has blessed me more. And I looked at him as like why me?

00:37:36--> 00:37:49

I need to be grateful. Why not that person? When you start thinking this way, your relationship change because he start seeing his blessings that you chose you for no reason other than he is

00:37:52--> 00:38:24

no other reason? And what do I give him back? May Allah forgive me. Another one is the company, the company, the company, the company, who do you spend your time with? You need people who remind you of this in a good way not in a scary way in a loving way. As I say not a warrior I used to walk in the street and says it looks to one of the competitors let's go and have fun and remember Allah is are they saved?

00:38:25--> 00:38:28

Let's go and have fun and remember Allah What do we do for fun?

00:38:31--> 00:38:51

So we need to have the company I always say to myself, I was like I need people to help me to get close to Allah. I don't want people to push me away. Already my neffs is working and Shavon is playing. I need someone to pull me and I'm weak holy Elisa mobile Eva, we are all weak, none of us are strong.

00:38:53--> 00:38:57

And Allah subhanaw taala said this in the insert on baccara

00:38:58--> 00:39:09

how many of us before I share the the verse Now after you heard this, you say for sure in my life. There is people who I love more than Allah

00:39:15--> 00:39:29

and that's what he said woman a nasty man took it to Indonesia he and dad and your buena home kaha Billa Well, Adina Amanu I should have been the law. And he said from among people his creation

00:39:30--> 00:39:40

formula nursemaid tell you the window Nila they take from other than Allah and and MIDI in Arabic is somebody who is exactly like you.

00:39:41--> 00:39:56

And they they like the one you do competition and you say you know what I don't care about the students in the class said that person because she's exactly like me. She thinks like me study like me. That's an ID competition. And Allah has seen chrome among people.

00:39:57--> 00:39:59

They take people

00:40:00--> 00:40:27

is equal to Allah. And then the worst you could Munna who you're a boon Anca Billa they love them. They love Allah, you know, what's the sign? What's, what's the sign? Again choices when I need to make a choice. Clear. This is pleasing to Allah clear. And this is not pleasing to Allah, but it's not pleasing to people. What they will say about me and I chose this

00:40:28--> 00:40:46

then I put this more beloved to me than Allah Lavina Amanu Asha Hogben Lila, and the sign I am a real believer, real believer, we are all believers through deep depth is when I put a lot is number one

00:40:47--> 00:40:52

in everything. The last but not the least, what's the sign he loves me?

00:40:54--> 00:40:59

And what do I need to do? How many of you now claim or say I know Allah loves

00:41:02--> 00:41:05

it's really difficult. It's very difficult.

00:41:06--> 00:41:18

Muhammad Ali Willian are going to who will humble whomsoever declare war? On my friend or my airline? Allah? This is Hadith pudsey is Allah saying.

00:41:19--> 00:41:27

So when you start talking about scholars, when you start accusing people who are pious, be very careful.

00:41:29--> 00:41:31

And Allah says, you do this, I'll declare war.

00:41:32--> 00:41:35

You're alive Allah declared war on me what is going to happen?

00:41:37--> 00:42:14

And then this is the beginning of the Hadith. And then the steps to the love of Allah and the sign that Allah loves you. So all in this hadith one article robot la appdb che Hanbury McDonald probably nothing will bring my servant closer to me. That's Allah, other than what I made the obligation. So in case you all know I'm going to stay start say where do I start? So many things. What is the first thing I'm gonna say? I'm gonna say the first thing write a list of the obvious obligation. What is number one obligation? Sauna

00:42:25--> 00:42:46

I want to hear it. Absolutely dress properly the way pleases Allah not the way it pleases people. That's an obligation on my world. So rotten Anza now from the chapter we have sanded and made everything in it an obligation and it is the dress code for the woman what other obligation?

00:42:49--> 00:42:51

See Subhanallah that's it.

00:42:55--> 00:42:58

So yeah, I'm in Ramadan, outside outside.

00:43:00--> 00:43:10

obligation. Take care of your parents. It's an obligate it's not an obligation. This is an obligation or I will say the obligation of arboricola Budo

00:43:12--> 00:43:34

Dania Santa your Lord have decreed you do not worship but him and and he put them here together and you treat your parents with excellence that's an obligation it's not your your we are raised very well no Masha Allah who its obligation. You want Allah to love you. And I'm going to tell you what's happened when he loves you said the end of this hadith.

00:43:36--> 00:43:52

So here I am, I put a list of the obligation and I'm going to check the ones I'm doing and I'm very grateful to Allah and things I'm struggling and things I have not started yet don't be please help me put a list of Doha for you and Ramadan. What is the obligations you're still struggling

00:43:53--> 00:44:23

and everybody is different. No one is perfect. And one day I'm perfect or next day I'm not put the list and ask Allah to make it easy. So that's the first step today I left and I said that sit I am going to love Allah and I want him to love me Okay, start this that's not gonna get you where you want because now what he says when I resign well if the horrible era you have been in a waffle have offered my servant continue to do the extras

00:44:24--> 00:44:29

till the moment the time I love him

00:44:31--> 00:44:32

now I'm going to tell you the sign

00:44:34--> 00:44:37

that you gotta have up to your Allah make me one of them

00:44:42--> 00:44:45

if I love him, going to summer holiday Yes, ma'am.

00:44:47--> 00:44:54

I become his his hearing Avasarala the opposite will be in his eyesight,

00:44:55--> 00:44:59

where the Holy Theobald shall be an eye become his hand.

00:45:00--> 00:45:07

Another narration original Latium she'd be her and the hat and the length he or she walks with know the sign.

00:45:09--> 00:45:13

So let me explain this. And then I'll tell you the finale. How do you know Allah loves you?

00:45:14--> 00:45:20

You can look at haram, you're not struggling, you just can't look at them. Because you become your eyesight.

00:45:21--> 00:45:33

Let alone you're enjoying. And you're telling me Allah loves me? You can't. Anything that is not pleasing to Him. You just say I can't you know, when sometimes I can't. I can't.

00:45:35--> 00:45:45

And you can't hear anything that is not pleasing to Him, because He became your hearings, and your eyesight and you can do anything with your hand.

00:45:46--> 00:45:56

And now the two signs. Willa is learning. Now piano when you ask him, he gives it to you immediately.

00:45:57--> 00:46:04

Well, let me start Danila Are you done? When he seek refuge in Me? I am going to give him the refuge.

00:46:07--> 00:46:52

Where are we? One of my friends, I think I share the story. But every time I give this Holly so young woman, not even maybe now she's 30 Something that that time when we were together, she was 22 or 23 spent the last 10 nights and Ramadan together in the Haram. And it was so crowded that they had a law. I can't tell you how crowded it was no place. If you go for record, you will hit the person in front of you. Period. And this woman in Africa, this young woman in Africa for 10 days through a ticker, Antarctica for the phone with friends. True because I was watching her. Every time someone comes in, in this millions of people. And they are looking for a place she stands up and

00:46:52--> 00:47:08

says come and gives her place and gives her place at one point. And I was like Where are you going to pray? And she says says house is gonna give me a place and she disappeared and comes back and she prayed.

00:47:10--> 00:47:29

So this was after 200 3am in the Haram you are exhausted, can't eat barely you ate something. She was sitting next to me. And if you want to go out to get food and come back, you will miss your federal. She looked at me and said in Egyptian slang should have a fart never see Flama

00:47:30--> 00:47:32

I'm dying for a piece of meat.

00:47:34--> 00:47:51

I think it was the night 2829 sorts of the animal was a lie. I was there. She didn't finish it. She didn't finish the statement. That's a new app or the insulin the louthian. Yeah. And he asked me I'll give a woman comes in

00:47:53--> 00:48:01

local, carrying a plastic container. She put it in front of us. She opened it. It's meatballs.

00:48:02--> 00:48:05

And she said buy a lot. You're gonna eat it. I cooked it

00:48:10--> 00:48:13

I was like why didn't you ask for genetic for dose?

00:48:14--> 00:48:16

Honestly, I said that. I

00:48:17--> 00:48:18

was like I can't eat meat bowls.

00:48:21--> 00:48:22

Because Allah gave it to her

00:48:24--> 00:48:25

on the squat

00:48:26--> 00:48:28

on the spot.

00:48:29--> 00:48:40

And I heard her in Doha. She was next to me. She had no children at that time. And I hear her crying sobbing. She couldn't get pregnant. Now she has twins.

00:48:43--> 00:48:59

Or like you said, Ellen Lau Triana. When he asked me, I'll give it to him. You know why? Because at that moment, I can say and declare I deserve it. Because I worked for it. Well, let me start and either or even

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

if he seek or she seek refuge in Me, I'll protect them. And that's another story. But this is long time from the books. They said one of the righteous people was sitting in the outside area outside in like an empty place and taking a nap.

00:49:22--> 00:49:27

And a Lion King and the lion put his nose on his nose.

00:49:28--> 00:49:29

And this man didn't even know

00:49:31--> 00:49:33

it's a true story. You can read in the books.

00:49:34--> 00:49:37

And then the lion turned and moved.

00:49:38--> 00:49:41

On the people next to him says what is this?

00:49:42--> 00:49:50

He didn't answer. Next day, the same place and a fly King on his nose. And he said oh

00:49:53--> 00:49:59

and the people said Subhanallah yesterday, longing you didn't move and today a fly

00:50:00--> 00:50:04

I said yesterday, your friend was with him.

00:50:05--> 00:50:06

And he protected him.

00:50:08--> 00:50:12

And today, he was with himself. So the fly bothered

00:50:14--> 00:50:31

whether any star than not worry, then when I seek refuge in Allah, He will protect me. Because I earned it. This is what I want to share with everybody. The muhabba of Allah doesn't come with no cost.

00:50:32--> 00:50:42

But could be not a lot of work, especially if you're sincere, and you have it, and he see it in your heart, but he doesn't give it to a house.

00:50:43--> 00:50:53
