All praises to Allah, all praises to Allah,
all praises to Allah, all praises to Allah
who guided us to this, who guided us
to Islam and to iman,
and to his Mubarak house on this Mubarak
hour, this Mubarak day, and we were not
to be guided. Was it not that Allah
guided
us? Oh, Allah. To you, his praise as
his commensurate with the majesty of your confidence
and the greatness of your authority.
Oh, Allah, we do not limit you with
any praise. We can come up with ourselves.
Rather, we admit that you're the only one
who knows the true extent of your praise
worthiness.
And may the peace and blessings of Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala be upon his servant and
messenger,
our master, Saydna Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. May the peace and
blessings of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala be upon
him and upon his noble companions and upon
his
pure wives and upon his Mubarak family and
progeny and upon all of those who follow
all of their
ways until the day of judgment.
So we continue in the series of
that we started
when talking about the ayah of Suratul Baqarah,
where
Allah commands the believers
that you should spend in the path of
Allah from that which Allah gave you. Right?
That Allah says that
That the likeness of those who spend in
the path of Allah
is the likeness of
a
a a grain
that is planted and then from its 7
ears of grain come out, and each ear
of grain, there are a 100,
a 100 seeds.
Allah says that
and Allah will multiply for whoever he wills.
And Allah is expansive and all knowing.
And the idea is that what? Is that
there is
some standard by which a good deed is
done, by which the deeds
outcome can be amplified.
And we talked about what that standard was.
That the the they
said that that standard breaks down into
3 different 3 different parts.
Right? One of them we talked about last
week, which is the knowledge of the person
doing the good deeds. The greater the knowledge
of the person doing the good deed is,
the greater the understanding,
and the heart, and the and the sincerity,
and the, deliberateness with which that deed is
done, thereby, the greater the reward the person
doing the deed receives.
And then we talked about the second part
being what? The purity of the means by
which that deed is done. Like a farmer
will get a higher yield on a crop
with the better seed that he uses. Some
seed will give a crop that is resistant
to weather conditions, resistance to resistant to pests,
resistant to illnesses, resistance to,
fungal fungal infections, bacterial infections, etcetera.
And some seeds are very weak, and they
make fruit that is very small
and that is very bitter and that is
very sensitive to temperature conditions and very sensitive
to
infections, and very sensitive to any other sort
of disruption.
And the seed that the farmer uses has
a very high impact on,
on the yield that they receive, and that's
what we wanted to talk about. That that
seed or that means that a person uses
to
to do their good deeds,
that is
the analogy of how pure the means a
person uses to do what they do.
How pure the means a person uses to
do what they do, how halal
in in
in simpler terms, how halal is your risk
and how halal is what you eat and
drink, how permissible and lawful is your provision,
The money that you make, the things that
you look at, the things that you listen
to, the things that you consume, the things
that you eat and drink. How halal are
those things? The more halal they are, the
more reward a person will get with them.
There's 2 people, 1 person
will work hard,
manual labor, not make a whole lot of
money for what they do, but the money
that they make is pure. The sunnah, the
2 sunnah ways of making money, the 2
ways that have the most baraka according to
the sunnah of the Messenger of Allah
are those things that a person does with
their own hands.
And trade, honest trade, honest business.
Honest business where you,
disclose to the buyer all the defects of
the thing that you're selling, where you disclose
to the buyer the complete picture of what
he's buying, you bring him something he needs,
and he happily gives you a a a
a a small profit from it. You take
something that's in surplus in one place, and
you put it in a place that's in
demand in another place, and 3 people win.
The person with the surplus gets money that
they need, the person who has too much
money gets the the the goods that they
need, and you are the third one who
benefits in the middle because you make a
living, you make a livelihood out of out
of the middle of it. So these are
the 2 sunnah trades that that are there,
and after that there are many trades and
professions that a person can do that are
lawful.
The person who works hard,
the person who works hard and does the
the
the the the the labor of their own
hands,
maybe they won't make so much money. Maybe
they'll make a a wage that's hourly, that's
close to minimum wage. Some of the people
who do the hardest work, actually they pay
them less than minimum wage. Right? They say
so and so is an illegal alien, or
so and so is a
a a a nonresident. And so people pay
them under the table, and they give them
even less than what is the or what
is, the the customary decent amount that a
person is supposed to be paid. And oftentimes,
those people do the most honest work and
the best work. Maybe that person brings a
small amount of money with them, and they
give him sadaqa. Or maybe that person brings
a small amount of money with them and
gives zakat, or gives a zakat or gives
a donation to the masjid, or buy something
for somebody, food for a needy person, or
or for a person who is fasting, or
buy something with it. Maybe they use that
small amount of money to buy something very
small, and the reward with Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala is for that small amount of money,
something that we will throw on the sidelines.
People like us that Allah give great means
to, we'll throw on the side and we'll
not even bat an eyelash about it. Maybe
that person will give that amount, and Allah
will give in its exchange eternal life and
jannah forever, and forgiveness for all of that
person's sins.
Allah
first the thing first you have to understand,
Allah
is not impressed with your money. He's not
impressed with my money. He's not impressed with
a
$1,000,000. He's not impressed with $10,000,000.
He's not impressed with $10,000,000,000.
He's not impressed with a $1,000,000,000.
He's not impressed with any of it. He's
the one who created the from
nothing. He created the heavens and the earth,
something that you think you know and I
think I know, but we don't even know
what the secrets are in this earth, much
less in the heavens. He created all of
it and nothing, in one word,
He said to it, be and it is.
Our money doesn't impress him at all. In
that sense, a $1,000,000,000
and 1¢ is completely equal to Allah in
the fact that it's all nothing.
Allah wants to look at what? What's inside
of your your your heart. Right? Allah doesn't
look at your picture, your outward form. Right?
He doesn't look at your body. He doesn't
look at your outward beauty, rather he looks
at your heart. It's a Sahih Hadith of
the Prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam.
He wants you to give that 1 cent
of purity. He doesn't care about the 1,000,000,000
or $1,000,000,000,000.
He doesn't care about it. How many masajid
are built? They're built on the funding of
a person whose name is put on the
masjid. The money was not pure, Allah may
not accept it from that person. How many
masajid are built? They have no name of
the people who gave the small
amount of nafakah, the small amount of donation.
Small donations that they put together. How many
are built? Literally, they have no carpets, they're
sand, and there's grass,
just bundles of grass that are there to
shade a person. The people who put those
bundles of grass together in a halal and
a pure way, they're written with Allah
and the list of people He loves until
the
This is something, we don't get it.
To be very frank with you, we don't
get it. It's a very simple concept. We
understand conceptually but
very few of us get it. We don't
understand this. We think, oh, if I make
more, if I do this, everyone else is
doing it, etcetera, etcetera.
Again, I mentioned so many times and it's
worth mentioning, it bears repetition.
It's the first hadith of sunan al Imamt
Tilmidi. Allah doesn't
accept. Allah doesn't accept a salaam without wudu.
If you don't have wudu, if you don't
have ghusl, if you're in or if you're
in hadith, you don't have where you are,
in a major state of in ritual impurity,
if you pray, Allah promises you He won't
accept it. Don't show up to the masjid
and say, Allah knows what's in my heart
brother, you can't tell me what is this
between me and Allah. It is between you
and Allah. And who am I to say
what Allah will accept and what he won't?
But his messenger
said it very explicitly,
that he will not accept it. If you
make properly,
there's still no guarantee that he'll accept it
from you. So you should be humble, I
should be humble when we put our prayer
forth in front of the Lord
But if we don't have if we don't
come with the prerequisites,
his Nabi
promised us, he will not accept it. Just
as we would laugh at a person who
would stand up in front of everybody and
say, Allah will accept. Who are you to
tell me what what to do that I
have to make? It's between me and Allah
if I make or not. I can pray
all I want. We would laugh at such
a person. Our small children would laugh at
such a person that they have no idea
what they're talking about. That they have no
idea what they're talking about. Just like that,
the rabbi sallallahu alaihi wa sallam,
in the exact same the same sentence, what
did he
say? And he doesn't accept what?
Any money that you are trying to use
to spend by which you are trying to
gain closeness to Allah
Any cent that you are trying to spend
by which you are trying to get proximity
to Allah
that's from ill gotten means Allah will not
accept it. Allah will not accept it. If
it was a hot day,
imagine there's a cooler with water. Nowadays we
thump our nose at water because we're very
wealthy people, we have very expensive habits. Somebody
may want to drink coke, somebody may want
to drink lemonade, someone may want to drink
iced tea, and even when they drink the
iced tea, it has to be organic, and
it has to have cane sugar instead of
fructose corn syrup, and has to be this,
has to be that, has make name the
nicest drink that you can think of, that's
halal. Okay?
Imagine there's a cooler of it, it's your
favorite drink, it's a hot day, you're thirsty.
Okay? If somebody somebody said, this cooler, everyone,
it's for the public to drink from. I
just put, like, a small drop of urine
in it.
Who's gonna drink from it? Raise your hand.
Go ahead. Who's gonna drink from it? Who's
gonna drink from it? Even if you would
drink from it, you wouldn't raise your hand
because it's a shame in front of other
people. It's a shame in front of other
people.
What is it? It's a shame. It's something
to be ashamed of. We're clean people. Our
forefathers were clean people. We don't do those
types of things. It's something that anyone who's
on the fitra, anybody who has anything resembling
a normal and undamaged nafs,
and
and and and and and disposition,
and soul. That person would say, this is
disgusting. I'd rather just drink the the, you
know, the the water from the water fountain
than drink something that has urine in it.
This is what it means,
This is what it means. Allah doesn't accept
he doesn't accept
a deed that a person is doing,
by which they think they're getting close to
him, he doesn't accept it if it has
any ill gotten wealth in it. And it
doesn't mean that, oh, okay. I didn't rob
a liquor store to bring this money, so
it should be good. No.
Right? I didn't say that the cocooner is
full of urine. If the cocooner is full
of urine, maybe they'll call the health department
and shut the entire masjid down.
I said just one drop. Just one drop
makes it unacceptable to any of us.
Okay? Makes it unacceptable to any of us.
Alright? What do we say in our sadhda?
What do we say in our ruku?
Right? Glory be to Allah to Allah, the
great, the magnificent.
Glory be to Allah, the most high.
Subbuuh, the one who is,
who who who who is
innately
deserving of glory. Quduz, the one who is
sacred and holy.
The one who is the Lord of the
malaika and the ruh. The one who is
the Lord of all pure things, Right? The
angels and the the the spirits.
You and me are not even close to
that. We're not even forget about Allah ta'ala,
we're not even close to the angels. We
go to the bathroom so many times in
the day. Right? We eat things, and those
things, what happens to them? They become rot.
Right? When we die, our our our our
bodies go into the ground,
and after just a small amount of time,
the body is so full of worms, the
person who loved you, like nobody else loved
you in the world, that person even will
not want to look at you anymore.
That's what we are. Even then this is
too dirty for us. Imagine
Allah Imagine Allah who and
that we expect him to expect accept these
things from us. These are things our forefathers,
they got them, they understood them, they get
them, we don't get them,
We don't get them. Our forefathers got these
things, we don't get these things.
We see what? That if you wanna do
things the right way, you're going to be
not making as much money, and And if
you wanna take a little bit of wiggle
room in it, then you'll make a whole
lot more money, and then you'll build the
entire masjid, and you'll do all these things,
and you'll go on Hajj and Umrah, and
do all of these things. We'll do a
100 different things, and then afterward we'll accept
we'll expect Allah
to accept them. Brothers and sisters,
the one of the hikmas, one of the
the the wisdoms of Allah
describing
those things, the deeds that a person will
have in their favor or against them being
weighed,
and not counted, or not measured by volume,
is that weight is an intrinsic property. You
can see 1, 2 things that are outwardly
the same volume, and one has more weight,
and the other has less weight. It's an
intrinsic property. You cannot look and ascertain the
weight of something by looking at it. There's
a hikmah, there's a wisdom in it. That
2 people will give the same dollar, one
of them will be a a a reason
for punishment with Allah and one of them
will be a reason of forgiveness with Allah
and one of them will be the a
reason of going to a very high Maqam
with Allah All 3 of them will be
completely different. This is something we need to
get it before we leave this world, lest
we show up,
and we pile the steel pans with mountains
of deeds, but the weight is not even
the weight of a feather.
Because when we sin brothers and sisters, I
can tell you we sin with complete
with compete purity of evil inside of our
hearts.
When we do good deeds though, it's all
watered down.
I'm saying we. I'm including myself in this.
This is something
Remind one another because the reminder helps the
believers. All of us need to remember this
because we're living amongst the people who literally
worship material goods. They literally worship material goods,
they worship money, and we've had the greatness
of that money come into our hearts. And
brothers and sisters, the money is not like
that. It's not in and of itself, you
spend it, and you're gonna go to Jannah.
It doesn't work that way.
Right? What does Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says?
The hadith of the Prophet
it's narrated, in Sahih Muslim, nonetheless, in which
Nabi
said,
O people, Allah is pure, and He doesn't
accept anything other than that which is pure.
Right? If it's going to be
uh-uh, watered down and adulterated in any way,
he's not gonna accept it. It's a very
explicit it's a very explicit pronouncement. You'll find
pronouncements like this all the way through the
Quran, all the way through the sunnah of
the Prophet They're not they're not rare by
any means. Right?
What did we say before?
He doesn't accept
a charity from ill gotten wealth, hear what?
Allah
is pure, and he doesn't accept. If it's
not pure, he's not gonna accept it. Allah
is pure, and he doesn't accept anything other
than that which is pure.
So don't say this is something that's beyond
me.
Allah said, What? Allah commanded the believers to
do the exact same thing that He commanded
the messengers to do.
Right? This is not something that only the
prophets can do, and we you and I
can't do it.
Generation
generation after generation of this Umma understood this,
and they lived their life to the best
of their ability according to this standard.
It's something they got, for some reason we
don't get it. This is what? This is
that Allah
commanded the, the the messengers, the prophets to
the same thing that he commanded the the
believers to the same thing he commanded the
messengers and the prophets.
He said in
He said in and then quotes the holy
book of the of the holy Quran. He
says, oh, prophets, oh, messengers, eat from those
pure things that we gave to you and
do righteous deeds, and verily, I know all
of those things that you were you were
doing. And then
he quotes Allah
again, in Suratul Baqarah,
Who is the mukhatab before? It's the prophets,
the messengers.
Here the who is being addressed here?
The believers, those who believe, those who make
the claim that we believe.
Eat from those pure things that we gave
to you in in in in sustenance and
in provision.
Right? What? Only eat from the pure things.
Only consume the pure things. Food only pure.
Money only pure. That's a commandment from Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala. It's a farr. It's not
something that, oh, this guy is more taqwa
than me or whatever. These are the these
are the bases. These are the bases, these
are the foundations on which the structure of
sound iman is built.
It says that, oh, you believe, eat from
those pure things that we have given to
you in provision.
Then the prophet
after quoting these 2 ayaas,
he mentions a man who is
long in journey.
Disheveled, dusty.
That person is in a long journey, not
sitting in a car, but traveling like through
the desert on a camel or on foot.
And that person is so far away from
everything.
That person is alone, so far away from
everything that he's disheveled. He feels he feels
uncomfortable,
and he he, is dusty.
He's his hair has dust, his beard. I've
I've lived in the before.
Right? I've lived in the desert before.
Dust and sound gets into everything.
I still have certain things if I, like,
knock them against the wall, after like 7
years, dust will come out of them. From
just the the the the less than a
year I was in the Badia.
So there's dust in everything. That person is
in that state. That person is in that
state, and he raises his hand in front
of the heavens, and he calls out, O
my Lord! O my Lord! He's making du'a.
What's more pious than this? What's more pious
than this? The person is alone, the person
is in a state of need, and he
is he is raising his hands in front
of the heavens.
Right? Uh-uh. There's a
not the mufasser, although the mufasser is a
mufasser, and the mufasser is a mufasser also,
but there's uh-uh one Ahmed
who wrote
a commentary, it's one of the canonical commentaries
on Sahih Muslim called Al Mufim. Right? He
writes and comment on this hadith. He says
that the the the snippet
that the Nabi sallallahu alaihi wa sallam mentioned
a man who is long in travel,
long in sojourn.
From the from the way the hadith is
being being,
narrated,
that it's clear that this person is not
because person doesn't go through that much difficulty
or that much trouble to go and do
like average things. The only reason a person
would undertake a journey in which they would
go through so much difficulty is what? Is
Hajj or or Jihad
or something that's
of dire importance. Something of dire importance. Meaning
that the journey itself is a journey of
obedience to Allah
If you read in the old days, people
didn't go from Bukhara
to, you know, Andalusia
for free. They only used to do it
what? Either because it's a hajj journey, or
because they're going to seek knowledge for the
sake of Allah ta'ala or for Jiadf
People didn't use you know, maybe kings have
the luxury of doing those things. Even kings
have to look after their kingdoms. You can't
just go travel for no reason. So this
hadith is what? Imagine the guy is,
he's disheveled and he's dusty, and he's spreading
his hands in front of this guy alone
in the desert and asking, oh my Lord,
oh my Lord, he's making du'a. What could
be more pious and what could be more
acceptable to the Lord than that? But what
did the Prophet
mention? He says, he says, what? But his
his his food is haram,
and his drink is haram, and his clothing
is haram, and his
nurturing, his body grew on the food and
drink of haram. And then the prophet
asked a question. What's the question he asked?
He asked a rhetorical question. He says,
How is Allah going to accept his du'a?
How is Allah going to accept his du'a?
This is not a joke brothers and sisters.
This is real. This is happening to our
ummah, it's happening to us. If it's not
happening to you, make du'a for me. It's
happening to all of us right now. That
we do this and we say, how come
we're not finding success like other people found
success? But when it comes to taking the
money, when it comes to eating and drinking,
we make all sorts of compromises.
And the same question can be asked about
us, that when we cry at the katham
of the Quran, when we read
when we go for Hajj, when we go
for Umrah, when we fast the long summer
days,
and Ramadan, when we do all of these
things, and then the heart breaks, why is
my dua'an not being answered? Why don't I
feel spirituality? Why isn't this happening? Why isn't
that happening? What's the answer to that question?
How does a person is tainted every single
means that Allah gave him, or her, tainted
every single means and never cared
to ask, is this thing something sound or
not? Is this thing pleasing to my Lord
or not? Then how is that du'a going
to be answered? This is not something we
say we mentioned to browbeat one another. It's
something we can change, all of us can
change it. And brothers and sisters to be
very frank with you, one of the the
the the the most, poignant and salient parts
of making sure your means is halal is
the food that you eat. And that is
the issue that we have turned into a
complete and utter joke.
If someone mentions is this halal or not,
it either becomes a joke or someone will
tell person, Very seriously, brother, don't talk about
this, you're causing fitna.
What is the fitna? Okay. What is the
fitna? I'll tell you what the fitna is.
Allah revealed in suratul
the last ayah in which there's an order
in the Quran. What is an order? A
hukum and amr. Right? There are ayah that
are orders from Allah
The last order that is revealed in the
Quran
was revealed in the ayah of Surat Al
Maeda.
Brothers and sisters, this ayah, what is it
about? It's about meat.
What is it about? It's about meat.
Allah
says what? It's been made haram for you
to eat the carrion, the unslaughtered meat, and
to eat blood, and to eat the flesh
of swine, and to eat that thing that
was slaughtered for other than Allah subhanahu wa
ta'ala, and that thing which was
asphyxiated,
that thing which was beaten to death, that
thing that fell from a height, that thing
which was, gored, that thing that was eaten
by a wild animal except for any of
these if you can get to them and
slaughter them before they die, their death.
And And that thing that was,
slaughtered on the altars of idolatry,
and that you should, take things by casting
lots. All of these things are profligacy.
This day, the people who,
disbelieve have given up hope in your deen,
so don't fear them and fear me. Allah
says, don't fear them, fear me. Right? Imam
Zamakhshari, who is
one of the most brilliant mufasidin of the
Quran, his
tafsir of the Quran is
a a standard for,
linguistical
analysis of the Quran. Right? It's
a standard for the linguistical analysis of the
Quran. What does he say when what does
he say? It means that that that Allah
says here that this day, the people who
disbelieve have given up hope that they can
mess with your deen. What does it mean?
He says,
That the people who disbelieve, the reason they
give up hope is because all of these
disgusting and filthy things that are mentioned as
haram,
because you have given them up, now Shaitan
doesn't have a way of attacking you anymore.
You're secure. You're fine. You're you're in a
a good state now. You're protected.
You're never going to make those haram things
halal again. As long as you don't do
that, they're not gonna be able to assail
your deen. The is
what? And if you start taking these hadith
things into yourself, then shaitan has a way
of attacking you. So you also should fear
them as well because they have a way
of getting to you.
This is something this is not a joke,
this is something very real.
Allah
continues, Immediately after that, what did he say?
This day I have perfected your religion.
And I have completed my favor upon you.
And I have been pleased with Islam for
you as a deen. Now your deen is
complete. Now your deen is complete.
What does the the the hadith of Sahih
Bukhari said, no, Amir
during his caliphate, he mentions that a Yahudi
came to him. He said to him, oh,
is
it true that there's a a part of
your Quran in which it said
that and the Sadna Omar
who said to to this yahudi, he says,
yes, it's true. There is a part of
our book that says that, that Allah says,
Today I have,
I've perfected for you your religion, and completed
my favor upon you, and chosen Islam for
you as a deen. This Yahudi said to
say, Naammar alayhi wa hanhu, he said, O
Amir Mumineen,
if this if this ayah was revealed upon
us, the Jews, it would have been such
a
honor for us, we would have made that
day into an Eid. We would have made
that day into an Eid. What did Sayna
Amr
say to him? Says, wallahi, I was there
when this ayah came down on the Messenger
of Allah
and he was in Arafat
on the day of
in the sacred land. That this this ayah
came down upon him to say, what? This
was not just 1 Eid, it was several
Eids put together.
It was several Eid put together. It was
literally the most sacred hour of the nubuah
of the Prophet
is what he's trying to say. To who?
To this yahudi, to this Jew who is
talking with great adab to Sayna, Umar
What does this mean? Is this an important
matter or is this not an important matter?
This is a very important matter. This is
not something to dismiss and to throw away.
This is a matter even if you have
an opinion about it. That's different than my
opinion.
It is something that all of us should
be,
happy to show some sort of scrupulousness, and
some sort of caution about. Even if you
think something is halal, but there's something better,
it's worthwhile being cautious for it. Why? Because
if it turns out you're wrong, the
the
the,
destruction of this will not just be in
that one deed that you'll be punished for
that one deed that you did something wrong.
It will go and pervade and spoil all
of your good deeds just like that one
drop of urine spoils the entire cooler of
of drink. Just like that. It makes it
completely undrinkable, it makes it a complete waste.
Just like that, any small amount of
in your in your food, in what you
eat, and what you drink, it will completely
destroy all of the other things. Literally the
salaf
whom used to say what? They said, We
consider
being sure that everything I ate and drank
in the day is halal, to be better
than praying the entire night tahajjud, than praying
the entire night tahajjud. And the person who
eats halal, their body will wake up, because
halal carries a person to the halal, and
haram carries a person to haram, that the
person who hates the person who hates foul
speech, the person who hates lying and cheating,
that haram will carry them toward it even
against themselves, even against their own wishes. May
Allah
give all of us.
It's okay if you give up eating meat
one day, once in your life, and it's
seems so bad, Allah will reward you for
it. No one will die of hunger in
this country, I promise you, we will not
die of hunger in this country. Allah is
the razzat, wherever you are in the world,
in this country no one will die of
hunger.
Okay. It's okay if you went hungry one
time, you controlled yourself one time, there's nothing
wrong with it. I haven't I I I
have been I've you I've used to go
weeks without eating meat. I used to go
weeks without Am I starving to death?
I spend probably half of the week outside
of my house. I don't have a place
to eat a drink. I'm not I don't
have a place where I can be sure
of what what I'm eating, is it halal
or not. Am I starving to death? Allah
provides for everybody, brothers and sisters.
Don't fear them. He says what? In that
same eye, he says, don't fear them. Fear
Me. Allah says, don't fear them. Fear Me.
The people have given up hope that they
can assail your deen. Don't fear them. Fear
Me. Don't fear them. Fear
Allah May Allah
make us amongst those whose means are purified,
and whose means are pure. That if we
give a lot for the deen of Allah,
or a little, whatever we give, may Allah
purify it and make it clean, and something
that's acceptable. May Allah accept from us whatever
we do is large or small. May forgive
us whatever came before. May give us to
to to to to have the courage, and
to have the strength to to rectify those
things in our lives that need rectification.
And may Allah make it a means to
multiply the rewards of our good deeds.
