The speaker discusses the importance of the "has been" moment in the book of Koran, which describes the death of the person or something they say will happen. They use the example of death to remind people of the "has been" moment, and how it is a "has been" moment that brings the truth of death. The speaker also discusses the importance of being ready for the "has been" moment, as it is a reminder to avoid becoming too busy and too focused on the current moment.

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

1 of the absolute

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

truth

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

or one of the most certain thing or

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

the only certainty

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

that we can say for sure this thing

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

is gonna happen is actually

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

we're gonna die,

00:00:21--> 00:00:24

and we're gonna go and meet Allah's Panmata'il.

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

And the Quran actually covered

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

death and dying

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

in many angles, from many angles. But one

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

of the powerful

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

verses is when he talked about the moment

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

of death,

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

meaning

00:00:37--> 00:00:39

we are not dead yet, but it is

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

there.

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

The moment of death

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

came in

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

and Allah didn't say moment. He said, wajaat

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

sakratulnu.

00:00:56--> 00:00:59

Sakra is literally from sakara.

00:00:59--> 00:01:00

It's intoxication.

00:01:01--> 00:01:04

So Allah described the moment

00:01:04--> 00:01:06

of death or the dying moment

00:01:07--> 00:01:09

is like someone who is intoxicated,

00:01:10--> 00:01:11

meaning

00:01:11--> 00:01:13

he does not or she does not know

00:01:13--> 00:01:15

what is going on around them externally,

00:01:16--> 00:01:18

but internally they are completely different.

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

And

00:01:19--> 00:01:21

Wah used waja at kaim

00:01:22--> 00:01:24

sakra, the moment of intoxication,

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

Bilhaq.

00:01:26--> 00:01:28

And Bilhaq is a truth. So what is

00:01:28--> 00:01:32

this truth? Many commentary on it. Basically,

00:01:32--> 00:01:34

death is here. That moment

00:01:35--> 00:01:36

brought the truth.

00:01:39--> 00:01:40

That's what you were,

00:01:41--> 00:01:41

running away

00:01:42--> 00:01:45

thinking it's not going to happen, thinking somebody

00:01:45--> 00:01:46

else. We see this every single day, but

00:01:46--> 00:01:49

we don't think we will die. But this

00:01:49--> 00:01:51

moment of dying, and some of us may

00:01:51--> 00:01:52

have witnessed this,

00:01:53--> 00:01:55

and you see the person dying, they change,

00:01:56--> 00:01:58

they look at something, you don't know what

00:01:58--> 00:01:59

they are looking.

00:01:59--> 00:02:01

Are they hearing us? Allah knows, but they

00:02:01--> 00:02:04

are still alive, but the last breaths is

00:02:04--> 00:02:05

coming out.

00:02:08--> 00:02:09

Death is true.

00:02:11--> 00:02:13

This is what you are running

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

away from.

00:02:15--> 00:02:17

And Allah is very close to us because

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

before that Allah says,

00:02:21--> 00:02:24

We are closer to that human being than

00:02:24--> 00:02:26

the jugular vein. We know everything he does,

00:02:26--> 00:02:29

he does and everything he doesn't and what

00:02:29--> 00:02:30

he feels and what he doesn't.

00:02:31--> 00:02:34

And Allah knows that, but still we have

00:02:34--> 00:02:36

the angels who are writing everything.

00:02:40--> 00:02:43

This isn't life before I die. The angels

00:02:43--> 00:02:45

are writing every single thing. Why, you Allah,

00:02:45--> 00:02:47

you know everything so on the day of

00:02:47--> 00:02:48

judgment,

00:02:48--> 00:02:50

I will have no way

00:02:50--> 00:02:52

to deny what I have done or said

00:02:52--> 00:02:55

because Allah will show it to me. SubhanAllah.

00:02:56--> 00:02:57

The good news is

00:02:59--> 00:03:01

that the the 2 angels, one

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

write the good deeds, which is the right

00:03:03--> 00:03:06

side, and left angel write the sins. But

00:03:06--> 00:03:08

then when the left angel, and then the

00:03:08--> 00:03:10

hadith, the meaning of it, is that the

00:03:10--> 00:03:12

left angel will wait. He will not send

00:03:12--> 00:03:14

it or write it right away. He is

00:03:14--> 00:03:16

gonna wait for about 6 hours.

00:03:16--> 00:03:20

Hopefully that person who committed that sin will

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

repent

00:03:20--> 00:03:22

because once we repent,

00:03:22--> 00:03:24

this sin is removed completely.

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

One of the

00:03:28--> 00:03:29

moments

00:03:29--> 00:03:31

that is very powerful in the life of

00:03:31--> 00:03:32

Rasul 'satan,

00:03:33--> 00:03:35

actually when he was dying and Saida Aisha

00:03:36--> 00:03:39

described it. She said, Rasu, alaihis salatu sanan,

00:03:39--> 00:03:40

when the

00:03:40--> 00:03:41

intoxicating

00:03:41--> 00:03:43

moment of death came to him, in his

00:03:43--> 00:03:46

hand there was a wood container

00:03:46--> 00:03:48

and it has water, and he put his

00:03:48--> 00:03:49

hand

00:03:50--> 00:03:52

and he was washing his face and he

00:03:52--> 00:03:53

said,

00:03:55--> 00:03:57

there is no god but worthy of worship

00:03:57--> 00:03:58

but him.

00:04:00--> 00:04:02

Death or dying moment

00:04:02--> 00:04:06

has sakharat is actually agony, pain. And then

00:04:06--> 00:04:07

the angel came to him and they gave

00:04:07--> 00:04:09

him the choice, do you want to stay

00:04:09--> 00:04:10

here or do you want to be with

00:04:10--> 00:04:13

the Rafiqul Ala, the high companion,

00:04:14--> 00:04:15

and he said,

00:04:16--> 00:04:18

and he passed. So for you and me,

00:04:18--> 00:04:20

what do I think? What do I need

00:04:20--> 00:04:22

to comprehend? If he

00:04:23--> 00:04:25

the real servant of Allah, the one who

00:04:25--> 00:04:27

the kib, the first one who's gonna open

00:04:27--> 00:04:30

Jannah, the one whose all his sins were

00:04:30--> 00:04:30

forgiven.

00:04:33--> 00:04:36

All the sins were forgiven, and he felt

00:04:36--> 00:04:37

it, that

00:04:37--> 00:04:39

what about you and me?

00:04:39--> 00:04:42

Now we will feel it, but in another

00:04:42--> 00:04:43

hadith,

00:04:43--> 00:04:46

the meaning of that when the soul leaves

00:04:46--> 00:04:48

the body, if the soul is leaving the

00:04:48--> 00:04:52

body of the believer, the righteous person, it

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

will leave very quickly and very softly, and

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

the opposite.

00:04:56--> 00:04:58

Allah described also this moment in another verse

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

in the Quran,

00:05:03--> 00:05:06

When it will reach, it is the soul.

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

Is

00:05:07--> 00:05:09

actually the throat.

00:05:11--> 00:05:13

And you are looking at that dying person,

00:05:13--> 00:05:15

but we don't know what's going on.

00:05:18--> 00:05:20

And we are much closer to him than

00:05:20--> 00:05:22

what you are seeing.

00:05:22--> 00:05:23

These moments

00:05:24--> 00:05:26

should serve to you and me as reminders.

00:05:26--> 00:05:28

Why did Allah put it in the Koran?

00:05:28--> 00:05:30

Because you want to remind me that one

00:05:30--> 00:05:33

day I'm going to be living that moment.

00:05:33--> 00:05:35

And the question always have to come to

00:05:35--> 00:05:37

all of us is, are we ready?

00:05:38--> 00:05:40

If this happened this moment, if this happened

00:05:40--> 00:05:41

today,

00:05:41--> 00:05:43

if this happened tomorrow,

00:05:43--> 00:05:45

are we ready to go and meet Allah

00:05:47--> 00:05:48

It's true.

00:05:48--> 00:05:50

It is for sure happening.

00:05:50--> 00:05:53

I just need to be ready for it

00:05:53--> 00:05:55

and Allah described it to me in the

00:05:55--> 00:05:57

Quran all over the Quran.

00:05:58--> 00:05:59

What does it mean to be ready?

00:06:02--> 00:06:04

Those who believe

00:06:04--> 00:06:06

and do a good deed, we have nothing

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

to worry about. As long as we have

00:06:08--> 00:06:11

changed everything in our life, in our daily

00:06:11--> 00:06:13

life, to make it an act of worship

00:06:14--> 00:06:15

and pleasing to Allah

00:06:16--> 00:06:19

Then the believer on the contrary, as Sayyid

00:06:19--> 00:06:21

Nabiral, when he was dying

00:06:21--> 00:06:23

and he was happy and he said, finally,

00:06:27--> 00:06:30

Finally, tomorrow, I'm gonna go and meet Muhammad

00:06:32--> 00:06:32

and

00:06:32--> 00:06:33

his companion

00:06:34--> 00:06:36

because he spent all his life in the

00:06:36--> 00:06:38

obedience of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala so he

00:06:38--> 00:06:40

knows where he will be.

00:06:40--> 00:06:42

May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala make us learn

00:06:42--> 00:06:45

this, make us ready for that moment. May

00:06:45--> 00:06:48

Allah make that moment easy for us. May

00:06:48--> 00:06:48

his mercy on us and everybody.

00:06:48--> 00:06:48

his mercy on us and everybody.
