			Ilaha Illa Allah, Subhan Allah.
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:59
			All prayers are due to Allah, as the
		
00:03:59 --> 00:04:02
			creator of all things, the all-knowing, the
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:06
			all-seeing, the all-hearing, the one who
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:10
			will provide for us the one who will
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:14
			give us our lives until the time He
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:16
			has ordained that we would have to return
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:17
			back to Him.
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:22
			May Allah's mercy be upon all of us
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:27
			as seeker of knowledge, student of knowledge, as
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:32
			a family, as the ummah of the Prophet,
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:36
			who was granted by Allah as khairul ummah,
		
00:04:36 --> 00:04:39
			the best ummah, the best generation.
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:45
			Brothers and sisters, alhamdulillah, we have been asking
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:50
			Allah for guidance every single day.
		
00:04:51 --> 00:04:57
			We have been asking Allah for forgiveness after
		
00:04:57 --> 00:05:00
			each of our obligatory prayers.
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:06
			And we keep on asking Allah to strengthen
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09
			our iman, because that is the most valuable
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:11
			thing in our life.
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:15
			And we hope Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:18
			will make us istiqamah.
		
00:05:19 --> 00:05:22
			To stay istiqamah is a big test for
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:23
			every one of us.
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:29
			Istiqamah means to be consistent in all the
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:31
			good things that we are doing, in seeking
		
00:05:31 --> 00:05:32
			knowledge.
		
00:05:33 --> 00:05:35
			That is a challenge.
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			On behalf of Al-Kadhim, we always try
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:44
			our level best to make sure that we
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:47
			ourselves are consistent in doing all the good
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:47
			things.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:51
			We are consistent in our prayer.
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:57
			We are consistent seeking Allah's guidance and not
		
00:05:57 --> 00:05:59
			just asking for His guidance.
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:02
			We want to follow His guidance.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:07
			A lot of people have been asking, but
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:12
			they are not following up with what they
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:13
			have been asking.
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:15
			It is just a lip service.
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:18
			A lot of people have been reciting the
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:21
			Quran without understanding.
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:25
			A lot of people try to learn the
		
00:06:25 --> 00:06:29
			Quran and understand, but have no intention to
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:31
			implement the verses of Allah.
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:38
			We would like to share with you this
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:43
			ayah, which Allah has granted us as the
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:48
			best nation, the best ummah, with the title,
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:51
			kuntum khayru ummah, ukhrijat din nas.
		
00:06:53 --> 00:06:57
			Among mankind, you, the ummah of the Prophet,
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:59
			is the best ummah.
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:06
			Ukhrijat din nas, not only the best among
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:10
			you, but the best among humanity.
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:14
			Because we are here to represent the weak
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:17
			ones, to protect them, the innocent ones.
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:21
			We are here to fight for justice for
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23
			all or no justice for all.
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:30
			We are here to champion freedom of speech,
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:33
			expression, but guided.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:38
			Not just anything that you can do, anything
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:40
			you want to say, you can say now.
		
00:07:41 --> 00:07:44
			You have the freedom to express yourself, but
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:46
			whatever you want to say must be guided.
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:50
			You cannot just use any word to talk
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:51
			to humans.
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			You must choose the best word.
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:58
			Because your intention, if it is good, then
		
00:07:58 --> 00:07:59
			the word must be good.
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:03
			So this is how we move on.
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:09
			And you consider yourself as the best as
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:13
			long as you carry out your responsibility, like
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:15
			what Allah has said in this ayah.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:21
			kuntum khayru ummah ukhrijat din nasi ta'murum tabi
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:24
			'l-ma'ruf wa tan hawna an-munkar
		
00:08:26 --> 00:08:29
			The main responsibility to make sure that we
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:32
			are the best, you must always be ready
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:35
			to engage in anything that is good.
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:38
			Amal ma'ruf.
		
00:08:40 --> 00:08:44
			Amal ma'ruf is here to remind us,
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:48
			if you want to be good, you must
		
00:08:48 --> 00:08:50
			also look into your environment.
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:55
			You want to have a good family, and
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:57
			that is why Islam always starts with ya
		
00:08:57 --> 00:09:01
			ayyuha lazina amanu ku an fusakum O you
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:04
			who believe, save yourself.
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:09
			We ourselves must try our level best.
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:11
			We cannot be perfect.
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:12
			Nobody can be perfect.
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:16
			But at least you try your level best
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:19
			to do what you have to do.
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:23
			And Allah, who created us, is aware of
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:28
			our own weaknesses, and that is why He
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:32
			said, la tukallifullahu nafsan illa wus'aha I
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:34
			will never burden any one of you.
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:41
			That is why Allah said, You do whatever
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:41
			you can.
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:47
			That is why Allah said, I intend ease
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:49
			for you, not difficulty.
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:55
			Only if you follow the guidance, then you
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:58
			see how smooth it is, how easy to
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			move forward.
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:04
			But we feel very, very sad.
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:06
			The book that we are talking about is
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:07
			Don't Be Sad.
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:10
			Why do we feel that we are sad?
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:13
			To see what is happening among this ummah.
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:15
			I am not talking about other nations first.
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:20
			We are focusing on this great ummah, the
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:22
			ummah of Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him.
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:29
			Why are we so confused when we face
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:30
			problems?
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:34
			Problem is knowledge.
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37
			Problem is information.
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:40
			Problem is wisdom.
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:45
			You will never become better without knowing how
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:46
			to solve problems.
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:51
			If there is no problem, then your knowledge
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:53
			about life will be very limited.
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:58
			Because of the problem, it exposes you to
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:00
			a lot of other things.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:08
			But then Allah, who has created all of
		
00:11:08 --> 00:11:11
			us, and informed us about who He is.
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:16
			He is the Creator, the All-Knowing, the
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:17
			All-Seeing.
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:19
			He knows.
		
00:11:23 --> 00:11:27
			Whatever is hidden, even in your heart, you
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:31
			may not remember, but Allah remembers.
		
00:11:32 --> 00:11:37
			So Allah is talking to us, asking us,
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:42
			telling us, to just follow His guidance.
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:52
			We know that every single day, last night
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			we had about two hours of online discussion
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:58
			with a group of scholars, to look into
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:01
			the affairs of the ummah.
		
00:12:02 --> 00:12:04
			Not only here, but worldwide.
		
00:12:06 --> 00:12:07
			To understand.
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:13
			And we keep on reminding one another, how
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:16
			blessed are all of us.
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:21
			Because we have a divine guidance from Allah,
		
00:12:22 --> 00:12:26
			who keeps on reminding us, فَإِن تَنَزَقْتُ فِي
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:31
			شَيْءٍ فَرُدُّهُ إِلَىٰهُ وَرَسُولُهُ If you have any
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:38
			disagreement, dispute, confusion, come back to me, Allah
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:38
			said.
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:43
			Because the knowledge of human beings is very
		
00:12:43 --> 00:12:43
			limited.
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:49
			Whatever we see, whatever we know, is very
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:50
			limited.
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:52
			Allah, the All-Seeing, the All-Knowing.
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:57
			And the command of Allah is not only
		
00:12:57 --> 00:12:59
			for us living in this country, Malaysia.
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:02
			Not only for the Arabs.
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:08
			Allah said, قُدَلِّ النَّاسِ The Quran was revealed
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:11
			as a divine guidance for mankind.
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:18
			Wherever you are, your problem may differ because
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:24
			of the environment, of time zone, but the
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:26
			solution is always the same.
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:29
			You just come back to Him, the One
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:32
			God, who created all of us, who knows
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:34
			what is the best for all of us.
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:40
			And He sent the Prophet Muhammad, with a
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:43
			very, very unique responsibility.
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:48
			He set the best example, لَقَدْ قَانَ لَكُمْ
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:53
			فِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أُسْوَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ Allah said, indeed,
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:57
			in the life of Prophet Muhammad, peace be
		
00:13:57 --> 00:14:00
			upon him, he set the best example for
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:01
			all of us.
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:06
			Those who want to be a good, healthy,
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:11
			youngster, youth, look at him when he was
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:11
			young.
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:15
			That was when he was not yet a
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:15
			prophet.
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:19
			He was a very active person.
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:22
			He had been a shepherd before.
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:26
			Had done a lot of things that normal
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:27
			people used to do.
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:31
			He's known for his good character.
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:32
			He never lied.
		
00:14:33 --> 00:14:35
			He never used bad words.
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:37
			He never disrespected elders.
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:40
			He never bullied anybody.
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:46
			He always was very respectful to the elders.
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:52
			And he loved and cared for people who
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:52
			were younger than him.
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:56
			He's a very clean person.
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			You can trust him with anything.
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			He will never betray you.
		
00:15:03 --> 00:15:06
			And when he speak, he's known for his
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:07
			character.
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:13
			He never used any bad word, except what
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:14
			is good.
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:16
			Sometimes you are good.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:20
			Your intention is good, but the way you
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:22
			talk, the word that you use is not
		
00:15:22 --> 00:15:23
			good.
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:27
			Then it defeat your purpose.
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:29
			People will not listen.
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:34
			That is why when he was young, anybody
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:39
			who have any problem, if he is there,
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:40
			their problem solved.
		
00:15:40 --> 00:15:41
			You see, we ask him.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:45
			We will ask him.
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:48
			If we have a dispute, let him help
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:49
			us.
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:51
			Let him decide for us.
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:53
			Allahu Akbar.
		
00:15:54 --> 00:15:58
			And when he became a prophet, because before
		
00:15:58 --> 00:16:02
			that he became a businessman to Khadija, and
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:05
			he brought back a lot of profit in
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:08
			a short time because when he do business,
		
00:16:09 --> 00:16:10
			he never lie.
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:12
			He never cheat.
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:15
			He never betray any of his customer.
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:18
			What is good is good.
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:20
			What is fresh is fresh.
		
00:16:21 --> 00:16:23
			What is not fresh is not fresh.
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:28
			In business, it is always give and take.
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:31
			You can ask for discount.
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:34
			When you agree, you just buy it.
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:36
			That is Muhammad.
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:42
			And when he become the husband of Khadija,
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:47
			he prove to everybody that he is the
		
00:16:47 --> 00:16:48
			best husband.
		
00:16:50 --> 00:16:53
			Not just by word, but by action.
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:58
			Never once you heard that any of the
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:01
			wives is being punished by him.
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:04
			Is being humiliated by him.
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:09
			Even they are not happy sometimes, being human.
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:11
			Jealousy is there.
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:16
			But the Prophet, peace be upon him, never
		
00:17:16 --> 00:17:18
			belittle any of the wives.
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:23
			The same goes to, he is the best
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:25
			father to all his children.
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:31
			And he also is the best leader for
		
00:17:31 --> 00:17:32
			his Ummah.
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:37
			Brothers and sisters, Inshallah.
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:40
			Today we will be focusing on page 201.
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:42
			Is that page 201 today?
		
00:17:45 --> 00:17:45
			Yup.
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:50
			10 Gems for a Good and Noble Life.
		
00:17:51 --> 00:17:53
			We have discussed a lot of things before
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:53
			this.
		
00:17:54 --> 00:17:55
			We hope you remember.
		
00:17:56 --> 00:18:00
			Because knowledge that we have learned and we
		
00:18:00 --> 00:18:03
			don't remember, cannot help us a lot.
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:08
			Anything to do with knowledge.
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:10
			And the knowledge that we are sharing with
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:15
			all of us here is the knowledge to
		
00:18:15 --> 00:18:16
			strengthen our Iman.
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:23
			Now, 10 Gems for a Good and Noble
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:23
			Life.
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:26
			We all always want to have a good
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:26
			life.
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:31
			We want to be honoured, to be respected.
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:35
			First we have to look into ourselves.
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:37
			We don't look at others first.
		
00:18:37 --> 00:18:41
			We have to look into ourselves.
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:46
			Number one, wake up in the last third
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:48
			of the night to beg forgiveness from Allah.
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:55
			Meaning, as a human, it is very, very
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:57
			important for us to be humble.
		
00:18:57 --> 00:18:59
			Especially to Allah.
		
00:19:01 --> 00:19:04
			Remember the four noble characters the Prophet said,
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:06
			that will save us from hellfire?
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:13
			Hayyin, Layyin, Kharid, Sahlan.
		
00:19:14 --> 00:19:16
			The Prophet said, if you have four of
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:20
			these characters, these characters will protect you from
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:21
			hellfire.
		
00:19:23 --> 00:19:25
			You must be humble.
		
00:19:26 --> 00:19:28
			You must be polite.
		
00:19:29 --> 00:19:34
			You must make yourself easy for others and
		
00:19:34 --> 00:19:37
			also make others feel easy with you.
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:42
			And you must be a simple person.
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:45
			Even if you are somebody, but it's good
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:48
			to live as simple as possible.
		
00:19:52 --> 00:19:56
			Humbleness will remind us how important to keep
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:58
			on asking Allah for forgiveness.
		
00:19:59 --> 00:19:59
			Why?
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:04
			By asking Allah for forgiveness, brother and sister.
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:08
			Then we realize, if we are not perfect,
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:11
			how do you expect perfection from others?
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:17
			It is a kind of reminder for every
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:18
			one of us.
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:21
			Look at our Prophet, peace be upon him.
		
00:20:23 --> 00:20:27
			He himself, if he commits a sin, the
		
00:20:27 --> 00:20:29
			sin will be forgiven by Allah.
		
00:20:29 --> 00:20:31
			It is a very minor, it is not
		
00:20:31 --> 00:20:34
			considered sin, mistakes that he has made.
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:38
			Allah forgives him.
		
00:20:38 --> 00:20:39
			He is sure to go to paradise.
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:45
			But every day and every night in 24
		
00:20:45 --> 00:20:50
			hours, he asks Allah for forgiveness for 100
		
00:20:50 --> 00:20:51
			times.
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:55
			Let us look into ourselves.
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:58
			How many times do we ask Allah for
		
00:20:58 --> 00:20:58
			forgiveness?
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:04
			Most of us don't ask Allah for forgiveness
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:06
			more than 100 times.
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:09
			No time to ask.
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:15
			Too busy thinking of other people's problems, other
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:18
			people's faults and weaknesses, you forget about your
		
00:21:18 --> 00:21:20
			own weaknesses.
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:27
			But the beauty of this first gem is
		
00:21:27 --> 00:21:30
			that you wake up in the last third
		
00:21:30 --> 00:21:34
			of the night to beg forgiveness from Allah.
		
00:21:35 --> 00:21:38
			Why this kind of time is better?
		
00:21:40 --> 00:21:43
			I believe all of us do shed tears
		
00:21:43 --> 00:21:44
			sometimes.
		
00:21:45 --> 00:21:47
			When you recall something that is very, very
		
00:21:47 --> 00:21:49
			hurting, you will cry.
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:52
			Why people do this to me?
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:55
			Why people say this to me?
		
00:21:57 --> 00:22:00
			Why am I so bad?
		
00:22:01 --> 00:22:03
			No, everybody can reflect.
		
00:22:05 --> 00:22:07
			The Prophet, peace be upon him, in another
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:12
			hadith said, سَبْعَاثٌ يُزِلُهُمُ اللَّهُ فِي زِلِّهِ يَوْمَا
		
00:22:12 --> 00:22:17
			لَا زِلَّ إِلَىٰ زِلُّ There are seven groups
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:20
			of people who will be under the shade
		
00:22:20 --> 00:22:22
			of Allah in the Day of Judgment when
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:25
			there is no other shade except the shade
		
00:22:25 --> 00:22:26
			of Allah.
		
00:22:26 --> 00:22:33
			And one of them, رَجُلٌ زَقَلُ اللَّهُ خَالِيًا
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:44
			وَفَادَتْ أَيْنَهُ يَبْقِي حَتَّى فَادَتْ أَيْنَهُ Example, a
		
00:22:44 --> 00:22:47
			person who isolate himself.
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:52
			Now, one third of the night normally you
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:52
			are alone.
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:55
			People are sleeping.
		
00:22:56 --> 00:23:01
			So you wake up alone, خَالِيًا and then
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:06
			you remember, you recall about what you have
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:07
			done that day.
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:12
			You shed tears until two of your eyes
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:14
			got swollen.
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:20
			That kind of tears is valuable to Allah.
		
00:23:22 --> 00:23:28
			That kind of reflection is important because you
		
00:23:28 --> 00:23:30
			are talking to Allah by yourself.
		
00:23:31 --> 00:23:33
			You are not showing off to other people.
		
00:23:35 --> 00:23:39
			You are trying to remember, recall your own
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:43
			weaknesses and you beg Allah for forgiveness.
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:49
			Now, how many of us do that today?
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:51
			Very few.
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:56
			We have been asking Allah for many things
		
00:23:56 --> 00:23:58
			but how many of us ask Allah for
		
00:23:58 --> 00:23:59
			forgiveness?
		
00:24:00 --> 00:24:02
			Oh, we did say Astaghfirullah, Astaghfirullah, Astaghfirullah.
		
00:24:04 --> 00:24:07
			But how about your heart and your mind?
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:10
			Are you really asking Allah for forgiveness?
		
00:24:13 --> 00:24:18
			If you are asking Allah for forgiveness, you
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:19
			have been changing a lot.
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:21
			You should be a better person.
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:25
			No, sometimes the ego is there.
		
00:24:25 --> 00:24:27
			I am not wrong.
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:29
			I am okay.
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:30
			Overconfident.
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:36
			This is what makes us become very weak.
		
00:24:38 --> 00:24:43
			Arrogant and also become very hard-hearted.
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:49
			And look at the verses of Allah in
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:51
			chapter 3, verse 70 and those who pray
		
00:24:51 --> 00:24:54
			and beg Allah's pardon in the last hour
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:57
			of the night because there is a time
		
00:24:57 --> 00:25:00
			when nobody is looking at you, you yourself
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:04
			are crying for the sake of Allah.
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:09
			There are people who cry too but in
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:09
			front of people.
		
00:25:09 --> 00:25:11
			When people cry, they cry.
		
00:25:12 --> 00:25:14
			Somebody will go for a movie and look
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:16
			at the story of the movie and the
		
00:25:16 --> 00:25:18
			hero cries, he also cries.
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:20
			Very emotional.
		
00:25:22 --> 00:25:25
			But we want that thing that you feel
		
00:25:25 --> 00:25:27
			sad about to come from your heart.
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:31
			Then you start to look into it seriously
		
00:25:31 --> 00:25:33
			and say, I am going to change.
		
00:25:36 --> 00:25:38
			Meaning the next morning I want to be
		
00:25:38 --> 00:25:39
			a different person.
		
00:25:40 --> 00:25:41
			That is how you move forward.
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:46
			If you don't have that intention, brothers and
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:48
			sisters, you will see you never change.
		
00:25:50 --> 00:25:58
			Number two, the important character we should have
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:00
			at least once in a while, seclude yourself
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:03
			from people in order to contemplate.
		
00:26:04 --> 00:26:07
			This is part of the exercise of all
		
00:26:07 --> 00:26:08
			the prophets.
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:16
			They will make khalwah because environment plays a
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:20
			very important role in our development.
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:24
			But before you want to get into the
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:26
			community, you must be strong.
		
00:26:27 --> 00:26:31
			You must learn how to protect yourself.
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:34
			You know the prophet has said to us,
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:48
			All of us was born pure, fitrah, uncorrupted,
		
00:26:48 --> 00:26:49
			very innocent.
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:50
			We are all good.
		
00:26:53 --> 00:26:55
			Why so many bad things are happening around
		
00:26:55 --> 00:26:55
			us?
		
00:26:55 --> 00:26:59
			If everybody was born good, fitrah, pure, why?
		
00:27:00 --> 00:27:02
			Why there is so much problem that we
		
00:27:02 --> 00:27:03
			are facing?
		
00:27:05 --> 00:27:06
			But we are all good.
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:11
			I believe in every one of us, we
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:12
			still have a lot of good things in
		
00:27:12 --> 00:27:13
			our life.
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:17
			We try to do good things.
		
00:27:18 --> 00:27:20
			We try to help one another.
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:24
			Everybody has some good in them.
		
00:27:25 --> 00:27:31
			But to stay consistent in a good environment
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:33
			is very, very difficult.
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:37
			Unless you are strong.
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:41
			That means wherever you go, you will never
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:43
			let the environment change and corrupt you.
		
00:27:43 --> 00:27:50
			You will bring changes to the environment because
		
00:27:50 --> 00:27:51
			you are strong.
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:55
			But majority of us, we are not strong.
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:01
			Easily, you can be corrupted with your environment.
		
00:28:04 --> 00:28:07
			At home example, none of our parents teach
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:08
			us all the bad words.
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:11
			Suddenly you pick up some bad words.
		
00:28:13 --> 00:28:14
			From where?
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:17
			From the environment.
		
00:28:17 --> 00:28:19
			But today's environment has changed.
		
00:28:19 --> 00:28:20
			You don't have to go out.
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:23
			You just stay in your own room.
		
00:28:25 --> 00:28:27
			And the children today, they like to be
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:28
			secluded.
		
00:28:28 --> 00:28:30
			They like to cover up.
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:32
			And they are not just by themselves.
		
00:28:33 --> 00:28:34
			They have a gazette.
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:40
			Now they expose themselves to the world.
		
00:28:41 --> 00:28:43
			And you get all the rubbish.
		
00:28:46 --> 00:28:50
			All that you just name it will come
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:50
			to them.
		
00:28:53 --> 00:28:57
			So it's very important to always find time.
		
00:28:59 --> 00:29:03
			And do some reflection.
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:07
			If not, there's no time.
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:13
			What we learn is brother and sister.
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:16
			If you know that something you experience is
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:20
			bad, what do you learn from that?
		
00:29:21 --> 00:29:24
			For you to know that it's bad and
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:26
			what is happening is true, a bad thing,
		
00:29:26 --> 00:29:27
			is a bad thing.
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:28
			And you know that it's bad.
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:29
			That is good.
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:34
			Then you must always remember, I don't want
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:35
			to be like them.
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:36
			That should be the feeling.
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:41
			You don't just say bad, bad, bad, bad.
		
00:29:41 --> 00:29:45
			You are also in the same environment.
		
00:29:46 --> 00:29:48
			The way you think, the way you talk
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:48
			is the same.
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:53
			Anything bad that happens in front of us,
		
00:29:53 --> 00:29:54
			lesson learned.
		
00:29:55 --> 00:29:58
			If you don't like that kind of behaviour,
		
00:29:58 --> 00:30:00
			you don't behave like them.
		
00:30:01 --> 00:30:04
			If you don't like what they say, you
		
00:30:04 --> 00:30:06
			don't use the same word like they use.
		
00:30:09 --> 00:30:14
			So actually you are just learning from the
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:14
			environment.
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:18
			And that's why in the Quran, in chapter
		
00:30:18 --> 00:30:21
			3 to verse 191, Allah reminds us the
		
00:30:21 --> 00:30:22
			meaning.
		
00:30:22 --> 00:30:27
			And those who think deeply about the creation
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:29
			of the heaven and the earth, how can
		
00:30:29 --> 00:30:32
			you reflect if you don't have time?
		
00:30:33 --> 00:30:35
			Today everything we take things for granted.
		
00:30:35 --> 00:30:37
			We only want the best, but we forget
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:38
			to be the best.
		
00:30:41 --> 00:30:44
			We want people to respect, care for us,
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:46
			but we don't care about others.
		
00:30:47 --> 00:30:49
			Everything starts from yourself.
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:58
			If we are positive, inshallah, even if the
		
00:30:58 --> 00:31:01
			environment is negative, you are able to survive.
		
00:31:02 --> 00:31:03
			Because you know.
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:08
			You know your limitation.
		
00:31:08 --> 00:31:11
			If you feel weak, you retreat.
		
00:31:13 --> 00:31:14
			You have to retreat.
		
00:31:14 --> 00:31:17
			You don't try to allow yourself to be
		
00:31:17 --> 00:31:19
			in an environment that is going to drown
		
00:31:19 --> 00:31:24
			you with a lot of negative force.
		
00:31:24 --> 00:31:25
			Get out.
		
00:31:28 --> 00:31:32
			Getting out from the bad environment is a
		
00:31:32 --> 00:31:33
			minor hijrah.
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:40
			But moving from one bad environment to another
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:41
			is a big hijrah.
		
00:31:44 --> 00:31:47
			Big hijrah means you are not going to
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:47
			be here anymore.
		
00:31:47 --> 00:31:49
			I am going to migrate.
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:53
			Migration takes a lot of sacrifice.
		
00:31:56 --> 00:31:58
			Even our Prophet had to migrate.
		
00:32:00 --> 00:32:04
			Because when the tension is getting stronger, and
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:08
			people say, no, no, no, there are ways
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:11
			or no way, then there will come a
		
00:32:11 --> 00:32:13
			time, time to migrate.
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:18
			Sometimes today the thing gets more confused.
		
00:32:19 --> 00:32:23
			You are good, your friend is good, but
		
00:32:23 --> 00:32:25
			they are very judgmental.
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:30
			They just keep on condemning people left and
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:30
			right.
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:35
			Anything that they are not happy with, anything
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:36
			that they envy.
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:39
			If you look into the lifestyle of human
		
00:32:39 --> 00:32:43
			character, why people do good things, they still
		
00:32:43 --> 00:32:43
			comment.
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:47
			They still don't like you doing all the
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:47
			good things.
		
00:32:47 --> 00:32:50
			They still have something to say about you.
		
00:32:51 --> 00:32:52
			But you are not doing anything bad.
		
00:32:53 --> 00:32:53
			Why?
		
00:32:53 --> 00:32:53
			Why?
		
00:32:54 --> 00:32:59
			They should be supporting you, be happy with
		
00:32:59 --> 00:33:01
			all your good things, but they are not,
		
00:33:04 --> 00:33:07
			because the evil eye is there.
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:13
			The jealousy, envious, hasad.
		
00:33:15 --> 00:33:18
			And the Prophet had warned us, whoever has
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:23
			this hasad, jealousy, unnecessary jealousy.
		
00:33:23 --> 00:33:25
			If you are jealous, if he is so
		
00:33:25 --> 00:33:28
			healthy, I want to be like him to
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:29
			be healthy.
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:36
			Go to the gym, do exercise, do something
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:37
			for yourself.
		
00:33:38 --> 00:33:40
			If you are so good in reciting the
		
00:33:40 --> 00:33:46
			Quran, I envy him, learn, learn and recite
		
00:33:46 --> 00:33:47
			the Quran like him.
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:50
			Maybe you can recite better than him, there
		
00:33:50 --> 00:33:50
			is nothing wrong.
		
00:33:52 --> 00:33:56
			But don't try to judge the person in
		
00:33:56 --> 00:33:57
			a negative manner.
		
00:34:00 --> 00:34:03
			We thought that fitra, anything you do good,
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:05
			people will be happy, correct?
		
00:34:06 --> 00:34:07
			Normally.
		
00:34:08 --> 00:34:09
			Do you find that that is very common?
		
00:34:10 --> 00:34:12
			If you do something good, everybody will say,
		
00:34:12 --> 00:34:15
			okay, I like what you say, I like
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:15
			what you do.
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:17
			But there are times people don't like.
		
00:34:20 --> 00:34:21
			Why?
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:23
			Because you are ahead of them.
		
00:34:24 --> 00:34:28
			Now you can dislike the person for the
		
00:34:28 --> 00:34:29
			right reason.
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:34
			If they want to show off about how
		
00:34:34 --> 00:34:37
			good they are, you learn, I hope I'm
		
00:34:37 --> 00:34:38
			not like them.
		
00:34:39 --> 00:34:41
			I want to be good, I want to
		
00:34:41 --> 00:34:43
			be low profile, I want to be sincere
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:46
			in my good activities.
		
00:34:46 --> 00:34:48
			I'm not here to show off, I'm not
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:51
			here to go and tell the whole world
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:52
			I'm doing what I can.
		
00:34:52 --> 00:34:55
			If people appreciate, Alhamdulillah, people don't appreciate.
		
00:34:56 --> 00:34:57
			I have no problem.
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:57
			Why?
		
00:34:58 --> 00:35:00
			Because I'm doing for the sake of Allah.
		
00:35:01 --> 00:35:04
			Even the intention that we should have, brother
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:07
			and sister, is being challenged every day in,
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:09
			every day out.
		
00:35:09 --> 00:35:11
			Our intention is being challenged.
		
00:35:15 --> 00:35:19
			So always remember, you must reflect by looking
		
00:35:19 --> 00:35:23
			at the environment, looking at the day and
		
00:35:23 --> 00:35:26
			night, is there a difference between activities in
		
00:35:26 --> 00:35:29
			the daytime and activities at night?
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:29
			Is there a difference?
		
00:35:31 --> 00:35:33
			Is there a different lifestyle, day and night?
		
00:35:35 --> 00:35:36
			Yeah.
		
00:35:37 --> 00:35:40
			Day, everybody will be busy working, Alhamdulillah.
		
00:35:41 --> 00:35:43
			And night, most of the people who are
		
00:35:43 --> 00:35:47
			not guided will be busy collecting sins.
		
00:35:47 --> 00:35:50
			Commit a lot of sins.
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:53
			They work so hard and then use their
		
00:35:53 --> 00:35:56
			money to do things that do not benefit
		
00:35:56 --> 00:35:56
			them.
		
00:35:57 --> 00:35:59
			A lot of self-destruction.
		
00:36:01 --> 00:36:03
			That's why you don't have day club sometimes.
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:06
			You are only known as night club.
		
00:36:08 --> 00:36:12
			The night life, for this night club, is
		
00:36:12 --> 00:36:13
			very, very different.
		
00:36:14 --> 00:36:16
			You work so hard, you go and spend
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:18
			your money in the wrong environment.
		
00:36:19 --> 00:36:24
			You get drunk, you get high, and then
		
00:36:24 --> 00:36:25
			you destroy yourself.
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:28
			Can you imagine what is happening to the
		
00:36:28 --> 00:36:28
			human today?
		
00:36:29 --> 00:36:32
			They work so hard to destroy themselves at
		
00:36:32 --> 00:36:32
			night.
		
00:36:35 --> 00:36:38
			So we must always remember Allah created day
		
00:36:38 --> 00:36:40
			and night for a reason.
		
00:36:41 --> 00:36:44
			Day you are outside with other people, at
		
00:36:44 --> 00:36:46
			night you spend more time with the family.
		
00:36:46 --> 00:36:48
			That should be the value.
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:53
			Day you are out, night also out, you
		
00:36:53 --> 00:36:54
			only come home to sleep.
		
00:36:55 --> 00:36:57
			You don't know what is happening.
		
00:36:58 --> 00:37:00
			You don't care what is happening at home.
		
00:37:02 --> 00:37:05
			That is not the Muslim lifestyle.
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:10
			Everything that Allah created, there is a reason.
		
00:37:11 --> 00:37:14
			Allah said, I never create the heaven and
		
00:37:14 --> 00:37:16
			the earth or anything that you see.
		
00:37:16 --> 00:37:19
			Even a mosquito without a purpose.
		
00:37:21 --> 00:37:30
			To the extent Allah said, Allah is not
		
00:37:30 --> 00:37:32
			ashamed to create a mosquito.
		
00:37:35 --> 00:37:36
			Mosquito, what is that?
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:41
			So tiny, it just disturbs a lot of
		
00:37:41 --> 00:37:41
			people.
		
00:37:42 --> 00:37:43
			Do we feel disturbed by mosquito?
		
00:37:47 --> 00:37:50
			Every morning I always get disturbed by mosquito.
		
00:37:52 --> 00:37:53
			When I'm having my breakfast, he also wants
		
00:37:53 --> 00:37:54
			to have his breakfast.
		
00:37:55 --> 00:37:56
			He gives me a vaccine.
		
00:37:57 --> 00:37:59
			If he wants to give me a vaccine,
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:03
			without I feeling being vaccinated, okay.
		
00:38:05 --> 00:38:06
			Suddenly I feel itchy now.
		
00:38:09 --> 00:38:10
			We don't mind.
		
00:38:10 --> 00:38:12
			If you want to take my blood, take
		
00:38:12 --> 00:38:13
			it, so that I don't have to go
		
00:38:13 --> 00:38:14
			to blood donation.
		
00:38:16 --> 00:38:18
			There is something that come and just suck
		
00:38:18 --> 00:38:20
			my blood out, it's good.
		
00:38:22 --> 00:38:24
			But the thing we cannot bear because the
		
00:38:24 --> 00:38:24
			itchiness.
		
00:38:28 --> 00:38:30
			But Allah said, I never create that without
		
00:38:30 --> 00:38:31
			a reason.
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:35
			I'm not ashamed to create even smaller than
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:36
			a mosquito.
		
00:38:39 --> 00:38:41
			You know what the people used to say
		
00:38:41 --> 00:38:42
			to us?
		
00:38:44 --> 00:38:46
			We all have a bed.
		
00:38:47 --> 00:38:47
			They have what?
		
00:38:47 --> 00:38:49
			What kind of thing that is on the
		
00:38:49 --> 00:38:50
			bed?
		
00:38:53 --> 00:38:54
			What you have on the bed?
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:58
			On the mattress, what always left behind the
		
00:38:58 --> 00:38:59
			mattress?
		
00:39:05 --> 00:39:07
			You hear that if you use a microscope
		
00:39:07 --> 00:39:10
			to look into, on the bed you find
		
00:39:10 --> 00:39:10
			what?
		
00:39:15 --> 00:39:16
			Bed mat.
		
00:39:17 --> 00:39:18
			Bed mat.
		
00:39:18 --> 00:39:20
			You find every time.
		
00:39:20 --> 00:39:21
			What is his duty?
		
00:39:25 --> 00:39:26
			What is his duty?
		
00:39:27 --> 00:39:28
			Where you are, he is there.
		
00:39:34 --> 00:39:37
			He is consuming the dry skin of our
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:37
			body.
		
00:39:39 --> 00:39:40
			He also survive on us.
		
00:39:42 --> 00:39:44
			But if you will see it by your
		
00:39:44 --> 00:39:46
			eye, I don't think you want to sleep.
		
00:39:49 --> 00:39:51
			I don't think you want to keep your
		
00:39:51 --> 00:39:52
			body dry.
		
00:39:52 --> 00:39:54
			You may want to just be in the
		
00:39:54 --> 00:39:57
			toilet and soak yourself.
		
00:39:57 --> 00:40:00
			If not, he is going to come again.
		
00:40:02 --> 00:40:05
			But Allah make it so well balanced.
		
00:40:06 --> 00:40:09
			There's certain thing that he create for certain
		
00:40:09 --> 00:40:12
			thing that benefit both party.
		
00:40:13 --> 00:40:15
			Thing that you don't need, your body don't
		
00:40:15 --> 00:40:17
			need that you are going to discharge, he
		
00:40:17 --> 00:40:19
			is cleaning up for you.
		
00:40:21 --> 00:40:22
			But you can't see you.
		
00:40:22 --> 00:40:23
			Allahu Akbar.
		
00:40:24 --> 00:40:25
			If you can see, I don't think you
		
00:40:25 --> 00:40:26
			want to sleep anymore.
		
00:40:27 --> 00:40:29
			You want to sleep on other bed, still
		
00:40:29 --> 00:40:30
			he is there.
		
00:40:33 --> 00:40:35
			Just an example, you can see you know
		
00:40:35 --> 00:40:36
			the harbor.
		
00:40:37 --> 00:40:41
			When there's a sun, can you see anything
		
00:40:41 --> 00:40:43
			that is floating in the air?
		
00:40:44 --> 00:40:45
			Can you see?
		
00:40:48 --> 00:40:50
			Normally, I will look at that.
		
00:40:51 --> 00:40:53
			If you are in the room every morning,
		
00:40:53 --> 00:40:55
			you can try to do this exercise.
		
00:40:57 --> 00:41:01
			When you open the window, when the sun
		
00:41:01 --> 00:41:04
			is coming in, then you just look.
		
00:41:05 --> 00:41:08
			According to the sun, the sun ray, you
		
00:41:08 --> 00:41:09
			just follow.
		
00:41:10 --> 00:41:10
			What do you see?
		
00:41:13 --> 00:41:14
			Can you see anything floating?
		
00:41:18 --> 00:41:19
			So active.
		
00:41:20 --> 00:41:21
			It's moving.
		
00:41:21 --> 00:41:23
			You cannot just catch it.
		
00:41:23 --> 00:41:25
			There's no way because it's there.
		
00:41:26 --> 00:41:27
			Allahu Akbar.
		
00:41:29 --> 00:41:31
			Sometimes I was thinking, you see, we cannot
		
00:41:31 --> 00:41:33
			live without the sunlight.
		
00:41:34 --> 00:41:38
			But when you see the sunlight, you see
		
00:41:38 --> 00:41:41
			all this tiny, tiny dust, it's floating.
		
00:41:41 --> 00:41:44
			And this is something that you are breathing
		
00:41:44 --> 00:41:47
			in day, in, day and night.
		
00:41:48 --> 00:41:49
			Allahu Akbar.
		
00:41:50 --> 00:41:52
			But Allah has His own reason.
		
00:41:55 --> 00:42:01
			Now, it's very important the second quality that
		
00:42:01 --> 00:42:02
			we should have.
		
00:42:03 --> 00:42:05
			We must seclude yourself.
		
00:42:06 --> 00:42:07
			Do Qalwa.
		
00:42:08 --> 00:42:11
			Number three, stay in the company of the
		
00:42:11 --> 00:42:14
			righteous and keep yourself patient with those who
		
00:42:14 --> 00:42:15
			call on their Lord.
		
00:42:16 --> 00:42:18
			Those who are closer to Allah, you get
		
00:42:18 --> 00:42:19
			close to them.
		
00:42:21 --> 00:42:25
			Allah said, be among the righteous people so
		
00:42:25 --> 00:42:27
			you can easily be righteous.
		
00:42:29 --> 00:42:32
			It's very important because the environment is important.
		
00:42:33 --> 00:42:35
			If you are close to the people of
		
00:42:35 --> 00:42:40
			Akhira, your knowledge of Akhira is getting stronger
		
00:42:40 --> 00:42:41
			and stronger.
		
00:42:41 --> 00:42:44
			If you are busy with people of dunya,
		
00:42:44 --> 00:42:47
			you can see you will get involved in
		
00:42:47 --> 00:42:48
			dunya deeper and deeper.
		
00:42:49 --> 00:42:53
			If you are people who are politicians, then
		
00:42:53 --> 00:42:55
			whether you like it or not, you are
		
00:42:55 --> 00:42:56
			going into politics.
		
00:42:57 --> 00:42:59
			And if you are among the people of
		
00:42:59 --> 00:43:04
			businessmen, inshallah, you will pick up some business
		
00:43:04 --> 00:43:05
			ideas.
		
00:43:06 --> 00:43:10
			It's very, very important but always choose the
		
00:43:10 --> 00:43:11
			right company.
		
00:43:13 --> 00:43:20
			That's why the Prophet said, your lifestyle depends
		
00:43:20 --> 00:43:23
			on your company, your friend, your environment.
		
00:43:24 --> 00:43:29
			Number four is very important to remember Allah
		
00:43:29 --> 00:43:30
			often.
		
00:43:31 --> 00:43:33
			Remember Allah with much remembrance.
		
00:43:36 --> 00:43:39
			Remember me but please, a lot of us
		
00:43:39 --> 00:43:42
			when people say, dhikr, remember Allah, we are
		
00:43:42 --> 00:43:49
			starting to say, that is one of the
		
00:43:49 --> 00:43:50
			way.
		
00:43:54 --> 00:44:07
			Everything, the Prophet said, two
		
00:44:07 --> 00:44:11
			words is very like on your tongue.
		
00:44:15 --> 00:44:19
			But it's very heavy in the scale of
		
00:44:19 --> 00:44:20
			Allah.
		
00:44:27 --> 00:44:30
			But when the remembrance of this book that
		
00:44:30 --> 00:44:34
			trying to share with us, remember Allah often
		
00:44:34 --> 00:44:39
			is not just the dhikr but remember Allah,
		
00:44:40 --> 00:44:42
			what Allah want us to do and Allah
		
00:44:42 --> 00:44:44
			hate us to do.
		
00:44:45 --> 00:44:47
			Remember the do and the don't.
		
00:44:49 --> 00:44:52
			A lot of people who remember Allah, they
		
00:44:52 --> 00:44:54
			remember Allah in the wrong way.
		
00:44:55 --> 00:44:57
			They don't remember Allah in the way Allah
		
00:44:57 --> 00:44:59
			want you to remember Him.
		
00:45:01 --> 00:45:03
			If you are doing business, do you remember
		
00:45:03 --> 00:45:03
			Allah?
		
00:45:04 --> 00:45:06
			Yes, then you do not cheat, you do
		
00:45:06 --> 00:45:07
			not lie.
		
00:45:09 --> 00:45:11
			If you have people to work under you,
		
00:45:11 --> 00:45:13
			you remember them, yes, they work for you.
		
00:45:13 --> 00:45:17
			So you must value their time, pay them,
		
00:45:17 --> 00:45:18
			pay them a salary.
		
00:45:19 --> 00:45:20
			They have to survive.
		
00:45:22 --> 00:45:24
			How much is up to your agreement?
		
00:45:24 --> 00:45:26
			If you have agreed that I'll pay you
		
00:45:26 --> 00:45:30
			so much every month and you just carry
		
00:45:30 --> 00:45:31
			out your responsibility.
		
00:45:33 --> 00:45:35
			Everybody have to survive.
		
00:45:36 --> 00:45:38
			Even our wife have to survive.
		
00:45:39 --> 00:45:40
			You cannot say I marry you, call us,
		
00:45:41 --> 00:45:42
			you belong to me, you my slave.
		
00:45:43 --> 00:45:45
			You just do anything I want you to
		
00:45:45 --> 00:45:46
			do.
		
00:45:46 --> 00:45:47
			No salary.
		
00:45:47 --> 00:45:49
			Do the wife get salary, most of us?
		
00:45:50 --> 00:45:52
			Do we get salary at home?
		
00:45:53 --> 00:45:54
			No.
		
00:45:55 --> 00:45:58
			Wow, we are so blessed we have a
		
00:45:58 --> 00:46:01
			husband who love us so much, care for
		
00:46:01 --> 00:46:01
			us.
		
00:46:01 --> 00:46:05
			We don't need a good wife, they don't
		
00:46:05 --> 00:46:05
			ask for that.
		
00:46:06 --> 00:46:08
			But a good husband, they do value their
		
00:46:08 --> 00:46:09
			sacrifice.
		
00:46:10 --> 00:46:12
			Maybe they have certain personal thing they want
		
00:46:12 --> 00:46:13
			to buy for themselves.
		
00:46:14 --> 00:46:16
			Certain food that they like to pick up
		
00:46:16 --> 00:46:16
			here and there.
		
00:46:18 --> 00:46:19
			If you can, what's wrong?
		
00:46:20 --> 00:46:21
			You give him some allowance.
		
00:46:23 --> 00:46:27
			Even 200, 300, in anything they do, whatever
		
00:46:27 --> 00:46:30
			they pay, you say, no problem, give me
		
00:46:30 --> 00:46:30
			the bill.
		
00:46:31 --> 00:46:32
			This is the money back for you.
		
00:46:34 --> 00:46:38
			Because the wife, the best thing for them
		
00:46:38 --> 00:46:40
			to be is the keeper.
		
00:46:41 --> 00:46:43
			They keep whatever you give, they keep.
		
00:46:45 --> 00:46:49
			When you have problem, then you bring it
		
00:46:49 --> 00:46:49
			up.
		
00:46:51 --> 00:46:53
			Then everything is well balanced.
		
00:46:55 --> 00:46:58
			We like to give and who is the
		
00:46:58 --> 00:46:59
			best person to give?
		
00:46:59 --> 00:47:00
			Those who are closer to us.
		
00:47:01 --> 00:47:06
			Don't be calculative with people who are very
		
00:47:06 --> 00:47:07
			close to us.
		
00:47:08 --> 00:47:10
			But for us, as a good wife, we
		
00:47:10 --> 00:47:10
			never ask.
		
00:47:13 --> 00:47:16
			As long as whatever we need, the basic
		
00:47:16 --> 00:47:19
			thing is being provided, we don't ask.
		
00:47:19 --> 00:47:21
			But a good man will always look into,
		
00:47:22 --> 00:47:25
			especially when you are traveling, you may leave
		
00:47:25 --> 00:47:29
			your wife behind, you have prepared everything, but
		
00:47:29 --> 00:47:33
			did you also give them some money behind?
		
00:47:33 --> 00:47:36
			Maybe there's certain emergency that they have to,
		
00:47:36 --> 00:47:39
			Alhamdulillah, now you don't have to have cash,
		
00:47:39 --> 00:47:40
			now all is cut.
		
00:47:41 --> 00:47:42
			Go credit card.
		
00:47:44 --> 00:47:46
			Today, sometimes you go to the shopping complex,
		
00:47:46 --> 00:47:47
			you get confused.
		
00:47:49 --> 00:47:52
			You want to pay cash, they say, they
		
00:47:52 --> 00:47:52
			don't accept cash.
		
00:47:52 --> 00:47:58
			I just experienced last night, I went to
		
00:47:58 --> 00:48:02
			the mall, I forgot to bring my parking
		
00:48:02 --> 00:48:07
			kind of card, so I just picked the
		
00:48:07 --> 00:48:08
			ticket.
		
00:48:08 --> 00:48:11
			So I went to the machine, I want
		
00:48:11 --> 00:48:14
			to pay cash, they don't accept cash now.
		
00:48:16 --> 00:48:17
			I said, what happened?
		
00:48:17 --> 00:48:19
			I put my money, they never take in
		
00:48:19 --> 00:48:20
			my money.
		
00:48:21 --> 00:48:23
			What is happening to the machine?
		
00:48:24 --> 00:48:27
			Then somebody waiting behind me said, I think
		
00:48:27 --> 00:48:28
			they don't take money now.
		
00:48:29 --> 00:48:32
			Then how can I, what should I do
		
00:48:32 --> 00:48:33
			now?
		
00:48:34 --> 00:48:36
			Alhamdulillah, if I have a credit card with
		
00:48:36 --> 00:48:38
			me, if I don't have a credit card,
		
00:48:38 --> 00:48:39
			I cannot go out now.
		
00:48:42 --> 00:48:44
			They say, life has changed.
		
00:48:46 --> 00:48:48
			I mean the future, the oldies will suffer
		
00:48:48 --> 00:48:49
			a lot.
		
00:48:50 --> 00:48:52
			Now you go to the restaurant, they don't
		
00:48:52 --> 00:48:54
			have a menu to show you anymore.
		
00:48:55 --> 00:48:56
			What they want you to do is do
		
00:48:56 --> 00:48:56
			what?
		
00:48:57 --> 00:48:58
			You scan.
		
00:49:01 --> 00:49:02
			The QR code is there, scan.
		
00:49:03 --> 00:49:05
			We were waiting for some menu to see
		
00:49:05 --> 00:49:06
			what is it.
		
00:49:06 --> 00:49:07
			I can see with my eyes.
		
00:49:07 --> 00:49:08
			No, no, scan.
		
00:49:10 --> 00:49:11
			I'm not a good scanner.
		
00:49:13 --> 00:49:16
			Example, things have changed, brothers and sisters.
		
00:49:17 --> 00:49:20
			We hope, we remember Allah.
		
00:49:22 --> 00:49:24
			You see, all this technology can be good,
		
00:49:24 --> 00:49:25
			can be very harmful.
		
00:49:28 --> 00:49:30
			Anything you do, it's been recorded now.
		
00:49:31 --> 00:49:33
			But it's good to remind us, you see,
		
00:49:33 --> 00:49:35
			Allah also record our deeds.
		
00:49:36 --> 00:49:37
			You cannot escape.
		
00:49:39 --> 00:49:41
			Through all this technology, people are tracking where
		
00:49:41 --> 00:49:43
			you go, what you buy.
		
00:49:46 --> 00:49:48
			Something is good to remind us.
		
00:49:49 --> 00:49:53
			If human can know what you're doing, they
		
00:49:53 --> 00:49:54
			have the record.
		
00:49:55 --> 00:49:56
			How about Allah?
		
00:49:57 --> 00:50:00
			Allah send two angels to us.
		
00:50:01 --> 00:50:02
			Whatever you do, they have a record.
		
00:50:04 --> 00:50:08
			So remember Allah often meaning, you remember the
		
00:50:08 --> 00:50:09
			do and the don'ts.
		
00:50:10 --> 00:50:12
			Whatever Allah want you to do is for
		
00:50:12 --> 00:50:13
			your own benefit.
		
00:50:13 --> 00:50:15
			Whatever Allah said don't do is also for
		
00:50:15 --> 00:50:17
			own benefit, not for Allah.
		
00:50:17 --> 00:50:18
			He don't need that.
		
00:50:19 --> 00:50:20
			We need guidance.
		
00:50:22 --> 00:50:24
			Whatever Allah want you to eat is for
		
00:50:24 --> 00:50:25
			your own good.
		
00:50:25 --> 00:50:27
			And He said don't eat this, it's for
		
00:50:27 --> 00:50:28
			your own good.
		
00:50:28 --> 00:50:29
			It's not good for your body.
		
00:50:33 --> 00:50:36
			Number five, pray two units of prayer with
		
00:50:36 --> 00:50:38
			sincerity and devotion.
		
00:50:39 --> 00:50:43
			Meaning the Prophet peace be upon him and
		
00:50:43 --> 00:50:45
			Allah love all of us.
		
00:50:47 --> 00:50:51
			To stay connected to Allah, if you think
		
00:50:51 --> 00:50:54
			that I need to pray two rakat before
		
00:50:54 --> 00:50:58
			you make a choice, Salatul Istiqara example, just
		
00:50:58 --> 00:50:58
			do.
		
00:51:00 --> 00:51:03
			To remind us that we don't know a
		
00:51:03 --> 00:51:04
			lot of things.
		
00:51:05 --> 00:51:07
			We don't know about the unseen, who knows
		
00:51:07 --> 00:51:08
			Allah.
		
00:51:08 --> 00:51:10
			So when you want to make a decision
		
00:51:10 --> 00:51:16
			is highly recommended to take wudu and make
		
00:51:16 --> 00:51:17
			two rakat prayer.
		
00:51:18 --> 00:51:19
			Seek Allah's guidance.
		
00:51:21 --> 00:51:22
			Oh Allah, if this thing is good for
		
00:51:22 --> 00:51:27
			me, for my religion, for my family, make
		
00:51:27 --> 00:51:28
			it easy for me.
		
00:51:29 --> 00:51:31
			Sometimes it's good for you but it's not
		
00:51:31 --> 00:51:32
			good for your religion.
		
00:51:32 --> 00:51:34
			You get more money, it's good for you.
		
00:51:35 --> 00:51:38
			But now you have no time to learn
		
00:51:38 --> 00:51:41
			about Islam, no time to attend classes because
		
00:51:41 --> 00:51:43
			they want all your time to be for
		
00:51:43 --> 00:51:44
			the work.
		
00:51:46 --> 00:51:48
			Or, now you don't have time with your
		
00:51:48 --> 00:51:48
			family.
		
00:51:49 --> 00:51:50
			They want you to send you over here,
		
00:51:51 --> 00:51:53
			you get more allowance but you have no
		
00:51:53 --> 00:51:59
			time with your family and it's not healthy
		
00:51:59 --> 00:51:59
			sometimes.
		
00:51:59 --> 00:52:01
			A family is a family.
		
00:52:01 --> 00:52:03
			You have right upon your wife, your wife
		
00:52:03 --> 00:52:05
			have right upon you, the children have right
		
00:52:05 --> 00:52:06
			upon you.
		
00:52:06 --> 00:52:09
			They need a father, a papa figure sometimes
		
00:52:09 --> 00:52:10
			but you are not there.
		
00:52:11 --> 00:52:13
			Then they look for another papa.
		
00:52:14 --> 00:52:15
			Then you get upset.
		
00:52:17 --> 00:52:20
			All this can happen and it's happening.
		
00:52:20 --> 00:52:23
			In the West, it's happening because everybody is
		
00:52:23 --> 00:52:24
			so self-centered.
		
00:52:25 --> 00:52:27
			Me, me, you, you.
		
00:52:29 --> 00:52:32
			There's no family value anymore.
		
00:52:35 --> 00:52:36
			I hope there are a lot of changes
		
00:52:36 --> 00:52:37
			even in the West.
		
00:52:38 --> 00:52:40
			There is when I was there in the
		
00:52:40 --> 00:52:44
			early, late 70s, early 80s.
		
00:52:45 --> 00:52:49
			I spent quite some time in Europe and
		
00:52:49 --> 00:52:52
			I get to know some good family, some
		
00:52:52 --> 00:52:55
			friends but I have a very unique experience.
		
00:52:56 --> 00:52:57
			They invite me for lunch.
		
00:52:58 --> 00:53:01
			I went with them and then when the
		
00:53:01 --> 00:53:03
			bill come, they pay their own bill.
		
00:53:06 --> 00:53:07
			Alhamdulillah, I have some money.
		
00:53:09 --> 00:53:11
			They are the one who come and join
		
00:53:11 --> 00:53:12
			us for lunch.
		
00:53:13 --> 00:53:17
			I say Alhamdulillah but when the bill come,
		
00:53:17 --> 00:53:20
			not only they don't pay my bill.
		
00:53:22 --> 00:53:24
			Husband and wife, everybody pay their own bill.
		
00:53:27 --> 00:53:29
			Deep in my heart, I say, why they
		
00:53:29 --> 00:53:39
			go and why they go and waste extra
		
00:53:39 --> 00:53:42
			money because every bill there is a charge,
		
00:53:43 --> 00:53:44
			a service charge for a bill.
		
00:53:46 --> 00:53:49
			But I don't argue with them because maybe
		
00:53:49 --> 00:53:51
			that is their style but at least I
		
00:53:51 --> 00:53:53
			have some money and I don't order expensive
		
00:53:53 --> 00:53:56
			food Alhamdulillah so I'm able to pay.
		
00:53:59 --> 00:54:01
			I was in Paris.
		
00:54:01 --> 00:54:03
			I was in Germany.
		
00:54:05 --> 00:54:06
			Maybe not everybody is like that.
		
00:54:07 --> 00:54:11
			Certain people, certain individual, we are boyfriend, girlfriend
		
00:54:11 --> 00:54:14
			or old friend or husband, wife but come
		
00:54:14 --> 00:54:17
			to money, yours is yours, mine is mine.
		
00:54:18 --> 00:54:20
			Very, very individualistic.
		
00:54:21 --> 00:54:23
			Maybe they are used to that.
		
00:54:26 --> 00:54:28
			It's a shame you invite a guest and
		
00:54:28 --> 00:54:29
			you call the guest to pay.
		
00:54:31 --> 00:54:35
			So Alhamdulillah these people after some time I
		
00:54:35 --> 00:54:38
			came back home I invite them to visit
		
00:54:38 --> 00:54:39
			Malaysia.
		
00:54:40 --> 00:54:42
			Two couple came.
		
00:54:43 --> 00:54:47
			So they are my guests and each time
		
00:54:47 --> 00:54:51
			when we go to eat everything Alhamdulillah I
		
00:54:51 --> 00:54:55
			will go to the cashier earlier because they
		
00:54:55 --> 00:54:57
			are going to ask different, different bill.
		
00:54:57 --> 00:55:00
			I say, this one if they want to
		
00:55:00 --> 00:55:01
			pay also don't accept.
		
00:55:02 --> 00:55:03
			Say consider pay.
		
00:55:04 --> 00:55:04
			This is mine.
		
00:55:05 --> 00:55:05
			How much?
		
00:55:06 --> 00:55:06
			I pay first.
		
00:55:07 --> 00:55:08
			We pay in advance.
		
00:55:09 --> 00:55:11
			We don't want them to pay also.
		
00:55:12 --> 00:55:13
			They were surprised.
		
00:55:15 --> 00:55:18
			First the bill when they ask this bill
		
00:55:18 --> 00:55:21
			and his bill even our people here were
		
00:55:21 --> 00:55:22
			surprised.
		
00:55:22 --> 00:55:24
			You eat all together why must you have
		
00:55:24 --> 00:55:25
			so many bills?
		
00:55:26 --> 00:55:30
			No, each bill you have service tax again.
		
00:55:33 --> 00:55:35
			But anyhow I said it's okay consider.
		
00:55:36 --> 00:55:38
			What do you mean consider pay?
		
00:55:38 --> 00:55:39
			No, no, no, no.
		
00:55:39 --> 00:55:40
			I never pay yet.
		
00:55:40 --> 00:55:41
			You don't have to pay.
		
00:55:41 --> 00:55:41
			You are my guest.
		
00:55:44 --> 00:55:45
			We don't have that value.
		
00:55:45 --> 00:55:49
			Our value when you my guest we will
		
00:55:49 --> 00:55:49
			take care of them.
		
00:55:52 --> 00:55:54
			Sometimes you see among the Chinese people you
		
00:55:54 --> 00:55:56
			see the Chinese people they are they are
		
00:55:56 --> 00:55:58
			very good in that because they work very
		
00:55:58 --> 00:55:59
			hard and they love to eat.
		
00:56:00 --> 00:56:05
			So sometimes when come to paying they were
		
00:56:05 --> 00:56:06
			fighting to pay.
		
00:56:07 --> 00:56:09
			No, no, no, no.
		
00:56:09 --> 00:56:10
			Take my card.
		
00:56:11 --> 00:56:12
			Not like us.
		
00:56:13 --> 00:56:15
			We are just pretend to fight.
		
00:56:16 --> 00:56:18
			Maybe we pretend to put our hand in
		
00:56:18 --> 00:56:21
			the pocket but we are not pulling out
		
00:56:21 --> 00:56:21
			anything yet.
		
00:56:24 --> 00:56:28
			But Chinese people normally because they like to
		
00:56:28 --> 00:56:28
			eat.
		
00:56:28 --> 00:56:30
			They work very hard.
		
00:56:30 --> 00:56:33
			They are not stingy in food.
		
00:56:34 --> 00:56:36
			Anything to do with food they are ready
		
00:56:36 --> 00:56:39
			because they have their own culture and belief.
		
00:56:40 --> 00:56:43
			You see whoever sleep at night with the
		
00:56:43 --> 00:56:48
			tummy full if they die there is good
		
00:56:48 --> 00:56:50
			ending.
		
00:56:50 --> 00:56:52
			That mean they go to paradise.
		
00:56:54 --> 00:56:57
			Their paradise is you must not be hungry.
		
00:56:58 --> 00:57:00
			Hunger is a sign of * fire.
		
00:57:02 --> 00:57:04
			That's why they eat a lot and they
		
00:57:04 --> 00:57:05
			are not calculative.
		
00:57:07 --> 00:57:12
			Number six please remember prayer is very important.
		
00:57:12 --> 00:57:15
			Anything when you want to travel you don't
		
00:57:15 --> 00:57:18
			know whether what is good or not you
		
00:57:18 --> 00:57:20
			make two rakat istiqara.
		
00:57:21 --> 00:57:27
			Reciting the Quran with understanding and reflection and
		
00:57:27 --> 00:57:30
			this is what we as a person who
		
00:57:30 --> 00:57:34
			believe in Allah who love Allah who is
		
00:57:34 --> 00:57:36
			proud to be a Muslim you must stay
		
00:57:36 --> 00:57:40
			connected to Allah and recite his book.
		
00:57:41 --> 00:57:44
			Today you have the apps with you now
		
00:57:44 --> 00:57:48

00:57:51 --> 00:57:52
			try to understand.
		
00:57:53 --> 00:57:57

00:57:57 --> 00:58:02
			أَحَدٌ اللَّهُ الصَّمَدٌ What do you learn?
		
00:58:03 --> 00:58:05
			We have been reciting this ayah we memorize
		
00:58:05 --> 00:58:08
			this ayah but do we reflect or not?
		
00:58:09 --> 00:58:14
			Say Allah is one he is the one
		
00:58:14 --> 00:58:17
			that you must stay connected he is the
		
00:58:17 --> 00:58:19
			one that you must talk to.
		
00:58:21 --> 00:58:21

00:58:30 --> 00:58:37
			he create everything everyone depend on him even
		
00:58:37 --> 00:58:41
			the Satan who is trying to tempt us
		
00:58:41 --> 00:58:45
			to misguide us he cannot do anything without
		
00:58:45 --> 00:58:50
			the permission of Allah فَبِعِزَّتِكَ you see only

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

00:59:02 --> 00:59:11
			Allah for permission that is Satan we are
		
00:59:11 --> 00:59:15
			not Satan but do you ask Allah?
		
00:59:16 --> 00:59:20

00:59:20 --> 00:59:22
			Quran the Quran will tell you what to
		
00:59:22 --> 00:59:26

00:59:40 --> 00:59:46
			back to him number seven fast on a
		
00:59:46 --> 00:59:50
			hot dry day this is a bit tough

			Ramadan no problem we all are ready to
		
00:59:54 --> 00:59:57
			fast how hot is Ramadan we still have
		
00:59:57 --> 01:00:01

01:00:01 --> 01:00:03
			of Ramadan is that easy?
		
01:00:04 --> 01:00:06
			fasting outside Ramadan is that easy?

01:00:23 --> 01:00:25
			you are eating left and right is eating
		
01:00:25 --> 01:00:30
			and you but it is good sometimes to
		
01:00:30 --> 01:00:32
			have self-control fasting actually is the train
		
01:00:32 --> 01:00:36
			to have self-control you have the desire
		
01:00:37 --> 01:00:41
			towards that but by fasting you control your
		
01:00:41 --> 01:00:47
			desire but anything to do with sunnah you
		
01:00:47 --> 01:00:52
			don't do especially the sisters why?
		
01:00:52 --> 01:00:55
			don't fast the sunnah without the permission of
		
01:00:55 --> 01:01:01
			your husband there is rule adapt but if
		
01:01:01 --> 01:01:04
			you are supposed to work very hard for
		
01:01:04 --> 01:01:09
			your company your job need your energy fasting
		
01:01:09 --> 01:01:15
			may slow down your activities become very unproductive
		
01:01:15 --> 01:01:18
			then you don't do because it is not
		
01:01:18 --> 01:01:25
			wajib but fasting sunnah if you feel that
		
01:01:26 --> 01:01:33
			without burdening yourself without costing any kind of
		
01:01:33 --> 01:01:38
			self-destruction do it if you can normally
		
01:01:38 --> 01:01:41
			people who fast they will get excuse please
		
01:01:41 --> 01:01:43
			don't call me you do extra work I
		
01:01:43 --> 01:01:47
			am fasting don't send me outside I don't
		
01:01:47 --> 01:01:50
			like the heat because I am fasting this
		
01:01:50 --> 01:01:54
			kind of fast have no value the fasting
		
01:01:54 --> 01:01:58
			in the time of our prophets all of
		
01:01:58 --> 01:02:01
			them are ready to go through all the
		
01:02:01 --> 01:02:05
			hardship and they are still fasting they never
		
01:02:05 --> 01:02:14
			become unproductive because of fasting number 8 give
		
01:02:14 --> 01:02:18
			charity secretly Allah and the prophet love us
		
01:02:18 --> 01:02:25
			to give charity without making any public announcement
		
01:02:25 --> 01:02:30
			unless you have a good reason one of
		
01:02:30 --> 01:02:32
			the group of people that the prophet will
		
01:02:32 --> 01:02:34
			get the shade from Allah in the day
		
01:02:34 --> 01:02:41
			of judgment are those who give a sadaqa
		
01:02:42 --> 01:02:44
			with the right hand and left hand knows
		
01:02:44 --> 01:02:47
			not that means you don't go and show
		
01:02:47 --> 01:02:51
			off unless you have a reason meaning you
		
01:02:51 --> 01:02:54
			want to encourage other people also to donate
		
01:02:54 --> 01:03:05
			then it's good back to your intention but
		
01:03:05 --> 01:03:09
			if you just want to let everybody know
		
01:03:09 --> 01:03:11
			that I am a good donor there is
		
01:03:11 --> 01:03:15
			nothing wrong you can give but the worry
		
01:03:15 --> 01:03:17
			we have if you are not sincere that
		
01:03:17 --> 01:03:20
			means there is no value in the sight
		
01:03:20 --> 01:03:24
			of Allah people will praise you people talk
		
01:03:24 --> 01:03:28
			good about you but from Allah nothing in
		
01:03:28 --> 01:03:31
			the day of judgment the prophet did mention
		
01:03:31 --> 01:03:33
			that there are three group of people that
		
01:03:33 --> 01:03:37
			Allah will call them and judge them first
		
01:03:37 --> 01:03:39
			and one of them a person who like
		
01:03:39 --> 01:03:42
			to give sadaqa who like to do charitable
		
01:03:42 --> 01:03:48
			work then Allah ask what have you done
		
01:03:48 --> 01:03:49
			with the wealth I give it to you
		
01:03:49 --> 01:03:51
			then he say oh I give charity here
		
01:03:51 --> 01:03:54
			I give charity I give donation here I
		
01:03:54 --> 01:03:58
			help Gaza I help Lebanon everything you have
		
01:03:58 --> 01:04:01
			been doing that it's not that you are
		
01:04:01 --> 01:04:05
			just saying you are doing that then Allah
		
01:04:05 --> 01:04:09
			ask for whom do you do this for
		
01:04:09 --> 01:04:12
			who then we say for you oh Allah
		
01:04:12 --> 01:04:16
			and what did Allah say qad zabta in
		
01:04:16 --> 01:04:17
			the day of judgment you still want to
		
01:04:17 --> 01:04:20
			lie you want to lie in front of
		
01:04:20 --> 01:04:26
			Allah qad zabta you are a liar Allah
		
01:04:26 --> 01:04:29
			know what you are doing and many people
		
01:04:29 --> 01:04:33
			also know and Allah know that you don't
		
01:04:33 --> 01:04:35
			do for his sake you do to show
		
01:04:35 --> 01:04:36
			the people I am a good donor I
		
01:04:36 --> 01:04:39
			help this I help then you got all
		
01:04:39 --> 01:04:41
			your good name people have been talking about
		
01:04:41 --> 01:04:44
			you people have acknowledge you as a good
		
01:04:44 --> 01:04:48
			donor nothing from me now go and ask
		
01:04:48 --> 01:04:50
			that people to reward you now who can
		
01:04:50 --> 01:04:52
			reward us in the day of judgment only
		
01:04:52 --> 01:04:59
			Allah so it's very important in whatever we
		
01:04:59 --> 01:05:01
			do even you give charity if you want
		
01:05:01 --> 01:05:04
			to do it secretly it's better you want
		
01:05:04 --> 01:05:07
			to do it openly also it's allowed but
		
01:05:07 --> 01:05:11
			take care of your intention not to show
		
01:05:11 --> 01:05:15
			off but to give encourage other people to
		
01:05:15 --> 01:05:19
			do if we are normal people people ask
		
01:05:19 --> 01:05:22
			for donation we give 100 we are normal
		
01:05:22 --> 01:05:26
			people we don't have big salary but the
		
01:05:26 --> 01:05:33
			people businessman he give 100 we are normal
		
01:05:33 --> 01:05:36
			people we give 100 it's big money for
		
01:05:36 --> 01:05:43
			a director to give 100 bit shame how
		
01:05:43 --> 01:05:46
			much also you got the 0 and 0
		
01:05:46 --> 01:05:49
			and also 1 also but you only have
		
01:05:49 --> 01:05:55
			2 0 give plus one more 0 the
		
01:05:55 --> 01:05:59
			normal person 2 0 extra person 3 0
		
01:06:01 --> 01:06:05
			example why can't you do that you just
		
01:06:05 --> 01:06:06
			don't do for the sake of doing you
		
01:06:06 --> 01:06:11
			must ask yourself if I am somebody should
		
01:06:11 --> 01:06:16
			I give that small amount no value but
		
01:06:16 --> 01:06:19
			for normal people our children who don't work
		
01:06:19 --> 01:06:21
			but they got some saving the parent give
		
01:06:21 --> 01:06:23
			them and they keep on saving suddenly you
		
01:06:23 --> 01:06:28
			can't do they give they give 100 100
		
01:06:28 --> 01:06:34
			is a lot for them Allahu Akbar they
		
01:06:34 --> 01:06:37
			break their what you call it the coin
		
01:06:39 --> 01:06:41
			they have the box sometimes they give them
		
01:06:41 --> 01:06:44
			some call them to put coin coin coin
		
01:06:44 --> 01:06:47
			suddenly they break the coin wow the box
		
01:06:47 --> 01:06:52
			so much coin Alhamdulillah to them is big
		
01:06:52 --> 01:06:56
			money don't underestimate the children if they can
		
01:06:56 --> 01:07:01
			give 100 is big so always when you
		
01:07:01 --> 01:07:04
			do something good make sure that your sincerity
		
01:07:04 --> 01:07:09
			is there and give the best give the
		
01:07:09 --> 01:07:14
			best that's why until the left hand doesn't
		
01:07:14 --> 01:07:16
			know what the right hand has spent that
		
01:07:16 --> 01:07:20
			would be the best one number 9 provide
		
01:07:20 --> 01:07:24
			relief and aid to the afflicted Muslim this
		
01:07:24 --> 01:07:27
			is what everybody is trying to do the
		
01:07:27 --> 01:07:29
			level best here we are not in Gaza
		
01:07:29 --> 01:07:30
			we are not in Lebanon but thing is
		
01:07:30 --> 01:07:33
			happening we know they are suffering what you
		
01:07:33 --> 01:07:35
			can do try your best to do we
		
01:07:35 --> 01:07:39
			hope we all are sincere and we hope
		
01:07:42 --> 01:07:47
			we plan properly there are certain thing is
		
01:07:47 --> 01:07:48
			not easy for us to do from a
		
01:07:48 --> 01:07:51
			far distance the best is those who are
		
01:07:51 --> 01:07:54
			closer to them they know the situation over
		
01:07:54 --> 01:07:57
			there they know whether they can go in
		
01:07:57 --> 01:08:01
			or not it's not just taking photos here
		
01:08:01 --> 01:08:04
			and there sometimes we get very confused they
		
01:08:04 --> 01:08:07
			have been blocking everybody from entering even you
		
01:08:07 --> 01:08:11
			cannot enter but we can enter sometimes we
		
01:08:11 --> 01:08:13
			start to think whether this thing is new
		
01:08:13 --> 01:08:17
			or this thing is somewhere else we don't
		
01:08:17 --> 01:08:21
			know things are very confused today but everybody
		
01:08:21 --> 01:08:24
			is asking for this fund for that fund
		
01:08:24 --> 01:08:27
			for this fund for that fund everything is
		
01:08:27 --> 01:08:29
			saying oh it's our group it can be
		
01:08:29 --> 01:08:32
			trusted our group can every group is claiming
		
01:08:32 --> 01:08:37
			their group can be trusted but use our
		
01:08:37 --> 01:08:41
			common sense we must ask are you sure
		
01:08:41 --> 01:08:43
			that it's safe for you to deliver all
		
01:08:43 --> 01:08:46
			this thing there's no problem at all if
		
01:08:46 --> 01:08:49
			not it's a waste it's really a waste
		
01:08:50 --> 01:08:55
			we have people who go by themselves bring
		
01:08:55 --> 01:08:58
			their money by themselves bring something but everything
		
01:08:58 --> 01:09:02
			was been robbed oh you you come in
		
01:09:02 --> 01:09:05
			to bring okay you can go out now
		
01:09:06 --> 01:09:12
			it defeat the whole purpose when situation like
		
01:09:12 --> 01:09:14
			that only Allah knows we do not know
		
01:09:14 --> 01:09:16
			public do not know public have good intention
		
01:09:18 --> 01:09:21
			but we do not know about the group
		
01:09:21 --> 01:09:23
			of people who are claiming we represent this
		
01:09:23 --> 01:09:26
			we represent that this is something it's very
		
01:09:26 --> 01:09:31
			challenging today but we do our level best
		
01:09:33 --> 01:09:39
			number 10 yeah be as as tenuous yeah
		
01:09:39 --> 01:09:43
			as seamless as possible in the fleeting world
		
01:09:43 --> 01:09:46
			always be careful when you talk about dunya
		
01:09:47 --> 01:09:51
			don't let the dunya enter your heart we
		
01:09:51 --> 01:09:54
			love dunya but let dunya outside our heart
		
01:09:54 --> 01:09:58
			put akhira inside our heart nobody say I
		
01:09:58 --> 01:10:00
			don't like dunya even Allah in the Quran
		
01:10:00 --> 01:10:11
			said Allah
		
01:10:11 --> 01:10:14
			said even you are striving for akhira you
		
01:10:14 --> 01:10:17
			want the best for your akhira prepare for
		
01:10:17 --> 01:10:25
			your akhira don't forget your dunya yeah you
		
01:10:25 --> 01:10:27
			must have some balance for the dunya that's
		
01:10:27 --> 01:10:38
			why the best prayer is balance but
		
01:10:39 --> 01:10:41
			most of the time akhira will be more
		
01:10:41 --> 01:10:45
			important than dunya because the life in akhira
		
01:10:45 --> 01:10:49
			is everlasting life dunya life is limited 40
		
01:10:49 --> 01:10:54
			50 60 70 most of us 40 now
		
01:10:54 --> 01:10:59
			alhamdulillah yeah but still young yeah we some
		
01:10:59 --> 01:11:03
			of us 80 alhamdulillah still young because as
		
01:11:03 --> 01:11:05
			long as you are two digit is young
		
01:11:05 --> 01:11:08
			so don't worry yeah anybody ask you how
		
01:11:08 --> 01:11:10
			old when you know that you are below
		
01:11:10 --> 01:11:14
			100 you are young yeah so don't feel
		
01:11:14 --> 01:11:17
			bad yeah everything will feel good to yourself
		
01:11:17 --> 01:11:20
			but don't ask people about the age people
		
01:11:20 --> 01:11:24
			don't like something makruh yeah it's not haram
		
01:11:24 --> 01:11:29
			yeah so always remember al-akhira is better
		
01:11:30 --> 01:11:34
			than this dunya and more lasting yeah so
		
01:11:34 --> 01:11:38
			we hope Allah will protect all of us
		
01:11:38 --> 01:11:42
			yeah and give us all the good quality
		
01:11:43 --> 01:11:46
			so that we will have a noble life
		
01:11:47 --> 01:11:51
			yeah among the delusion of prophet no son
		
01:11:51 --> 01:11:55
			was his saying I will betake myself to
		
01:11:55 --> 01:11:58
			a mountain it will save me from the
		
01:11:58 --> 01:12:01
			water you see Allah is showing us what
		
01:12:01 --> 01:12:04
			happened to the early prophets not only we
		
01:12:04 --> 01:12:09
			even the prophet family yeah have problem even
		
01:12:09 --> 01:12:13
			the prophet have to face some test from
		
01:12:13 --> 01:12:16
			Allah not all the family of the prophet
		
01:12:16 --> 01:12:20
			is safe one is a son of Noah
		
01:12:21 --> 01:12:28
			who choose not to follow Allah's command and
		
01:12:28 --> 01:12:30
			follow the father who was a prophet at
		
01:12:30 --> 01:12:34
			that time yeah go into the ship because
		
01:12:34 --> 01:12:38
			Allah is going to send rain and he
		
01:12:38 --> 01:12:41
			is going to flood the earth his son
		
01:12:41 --> 01:12:43
			said no no no I am not going
		
01:12:43 --> 01:12:45
			to the ship I better go up to
		
01:12:45 --> 01:12:50
			the mountain to show us that even Noah
		
01:12:50 --> 01:12:52
			is a prophet there is no guarantee that
		
01:12:52 --> 01:12:56
			his son or will follow him he have
		
01:12:56 --> 01:13:01
			four son he have Kanan Samham Yafut the
		
01:13:01 --> 01:13:04
			one who refuse to follow is Kanan no
		
01:13:06 --> 01:13:09
			over confident why must I go into the
		
01:13:09 --> 01:13:11
			ship and my father go and build a
		
01:13:11 --> 01:13:16
			ship yeah beside the mountain not beside the
		
01:13:16 --> 01:13:21
			sea because the flood is coming in so
		
01:13:21 --> 01:13:23
			he said then to just go into the
		
01:13:23 --> 01:13:25
			ship that I better go up to the
		
01:13:25 --> 01:13:30
			mountain but the flood come and flooded the
		
01:13:30 --> 01:13:35
			land all the mountain is gone yeah just
		
01:13:35 --> 01:13:38
			an example so there is no guarantee that
		
01:13:38 --> 01:13:41
			if you are a good person your children
		
01:13:41 --> 01:13:44
			can be like you no guarantee you just
		
01:13:44 --> 01:13:47
			have to try to give them the guidance
		
01:13:47 --> 01:13:51
			they need the encouragement may Allah make them
		
01:13:51 --> 01:13:58
			righteous yeah had he he be taken himself
		
01:13:58 --> 01:14:01
			to Allah his outcome would have been very
		
01:14:01 --> 01:14:04
			different yeah the same go to the cause
		
01:14:04 --> 01:14:08
			of misery for Namrud was he saying I
		
01:14:08 --> 01:14:12
			bring about life and I cause death when
		
01:14:12 --> 01:14:14
			the people were in his time telling him
		
01:14:14 --> 01:14:17
			no Allah who give life and give death
		
01:14:17 --> 01:14:19
			Namrud one of the king at a certain
		
01:14:19 --> 01:14:22
			time said no I also can give life
		
01:14:22 --> 01:14:26
			and I also can yeah kill or take
		
01:14:26 --> 01:14:30
			life no he just command his soldier bring
		
01:14:30 --> 01:14:33
			two prisoner up and one he said I
		
01:14:33 --> 01:14:34
			give you life I free you one he
		
01:14:34 --> 01:14:36
			said I kill you he said I also
		
01:14:36 --> 01:14:39
			can give life they are trying to show
		
01:14:39 --> 01:14:42
			off that they also have the same power
		
01:14:43 --> 01:14:47
			yeah it's like when Abraham approach them and
		
01:14:47 --> 01:14:49
			then they say ok Allah come up to
		
01:14:49 --> 01:14:52
			make the sun come up from the east
		
01:14:52 --> 01:14:55
			and set the west so can you make
		
01:14:55 --> 01:14:57
			the sun come up from the west now
		
01:14:59 --> 01:15:02
			now they got stuck they thought they can
		
01:15:02 --> 01:15:04
			do this to human but the creation of
		
01:15:04 --> 01:15:09
			Allah is not only human but what is
		
01:15:09 --> 01:15:14
			important don't be over confident yeah because if
		
01:15:14 --> 01:15:17
			you want to pray God then with a
		
01:15:17 --> 01:15:22
			small example you will be beaten you will
		
01:15:22 --> 01:15:27
			be defeated yeah the key to our happiness
		
01:15:27 --> 01:15:30
			can be summed up in some simple yet
		
01:15:30 --> 01:15:36
			profound phrase that the phrase of Tawheed there
		
01:15:36 --> 01:15:41
			is la ilaha illallah Muhammad Rasulullah by doing
		
01:15:41 --> 01:15:44
			that brother and sister we save ourselves from
		
01:15:44 --> 01:15:49
			a lot of problem when one pronounce the
		
01:15:49 --> 01:15:53
			shahadatain yeah it only speak should be pronounced
		
01:15:53 --> 01:15:55
			here there is no value over there anymore
		
01:15:56 --> 01:15:59
			over there nothing can help you so in
		
01:15:59 --> 01:16:02
			the day of judgment I will pronounce but
		
01:16:02 --> 01:16:06
			there is only one group of people only
		
01:16:06 --> 01:16:08
			one group of people that Allah will give
		
01:16:08 --> 01:16:13
			them the last test who are they like
		
01:16:13 --> 01:16:21
			what I will not punish any one of
		
01:16:21 --> 01:16:25
			you until I have sent a messenger the
		
01:16:25 --> 01:16:28
			message of Islam have reached you now brothers
		
01:16:28 --> 01:16:29
			and sister a lot of us who have
		
01:16:29 --> 01:16:31
			friends who are not yet Muslim and you
		
01:16:31 --> 01:16:34
			don't convey the message of Islam to them
		
01:16:34 --> 01:16:37
			you will be asked by Allah in the
		
01:16:37 --> 01:16:41
			day of judgment because the prophet will witness
		
01:16:41 --> 01:16:46
			against us and then the prophet will be
		
01:16:46 --> 01:16:49
			a shahid upon all of us he conveyed
		
01:16:49 --> 01:16:53
			the message and he said convey even one
		
01:16:53 --> 01:16:56
			ayah to somebody who are not yet a
		
01:16:56 --> 01:16:59
			Muslim have we conveyed we failed to convey
		
01:17:00 --> 01:17:04
			and it's very very bad we have to
		
01:17:04 --> 01:17:06
			share the message of Islam but those who
		
01:17:06 --> 01:17:09
			do not know at all nobody talk to
		
01:17:09 --> 01:17:17
			them about Islam zero exposure then Allah said
		
01:17:18 --> 01:17:23
			Allah punished them until Allah sent a messenger
		
01:17:23 --> 01:17:27
			then the day of judgment Allah will give
		
01:17:27 --> 01:17:33
			them the final test whether they will succeed
		
01:17:33 --> 01:17:37
			or not is between they and Allah sometimes
		
01:17:40 --> 01:17:45
			they are saying what kind of test of
		
01:17:45 --> 01:17:47
			course that time is easy you know the
		
01:17:47 --> 01:17:49
			one who's talking to you is Allah what
		
01:17:49 --> 01:17:54
			is there to deny you know but the
		
01:17:54 --> 01:17:56
			test may come in a different way only
		
01:17:56 --> 01:18:03
			Allah knows just give an example Allah said
		
01:18:03 --> 01:18:10
			go to * just example and we saw
		
01:18:10 --> 01:18:12
			we are seeing * fire fire is burning
		
01:18:12 --> 01:18:14
			oh no no no I don't want to
		
01:18:14 --> 01:18:18
			go to * then you are going to
		
01:18:18 --> 01:18:24
			* because you disobey him if you were
		
01:18:24 --> 01:18:28
			just move to * then Allah said you
		
01:18:28 --> 01:18:31
			are now you go there jannah because you
		
01:18:31 --> 01:18:37
			obey me you believe in me is that
		
01:18:37 --> 01:18:42
			easy it's not easy that you leave it
		
01:18:42 --> 01:18:56
			to Allah inshallah
		
01:18:56 --> 01:18:58
			yeah I will give you the quick question
		
01:18:58 --> 01:19:03
			answer time inshallah when one pronounce this phrase
		
01:19:03 --> 01:19:08
			it will be said to him in the
		
01:19:08 --> 01:19:11
			heaven you have spoken the truth and he
		
01:19:11 --> 01:19:15
			prophet Muhammad has brought the truth the Quran
		
01:19:15 --> 01:19:19
			and Islamic monotheism and those who believe therein
		
01:19:19 --> 01:19:22
			you know the bear witness when you say
		
01:19:22 --> 01:19:26
			what Allah want you to say the angel
		
01:19:26 --> 01:19:30
			will bear witness everything will bear witness remember
		
01:19:30 --> 01:19:33
			when Allah said to the earth said to
		
01:19:33 --> 01:19:37
			the mountain said to the sky about the
		
01:19:37 --> 01:19:43
			Quran nobody there to accept this as an
		
01:19:43 --> 01:19:49
			amanah except human being every Christian obey Allah
		
01:19:49 --> 01:19:58
			Allah said everything that Allah
		
01:19:58 --> 01:20:01
			created in the heaven and the earth submit
		
01:20:01 --> 01:20:05
			to him the only creation of Allah that
		
01:20:06 --> 01:20:12
			are ungrateful are divided into two and Allah
		
01:20:12 --> 01:20:18
			said only two creation will go to *
		
01:20:19 --> 01:20:24
			jinn and human other creation all submit to
		
01:20:24 --> 01:20:32
			Allah and when one life one live his
		
01:20:32 --> 01:20:35
			life in harmony with their face on a
		
01:20:35 --> 01:20:38
			practical level he will be safe from destruction
		
01:20:38 --> 01:20:43
			shame and from * fire yeah and Allah
		
01:20:43 --> 01:20:46
			will deliver those who are the pious to
		
01:20:46 --> 01:20:55
			the place of success jinn when one not
		
01:20:55 --> 01:20:58
			only apply the face of tawheed but also
		
01:20:58 --> 01:21:02
			call other to it his name will be
		
01:21:02 --> 01:21:06
			remembered and he will be made victorious yeah
		
01:21:06 --> 01:21:11
			that is the best for all of us
		
01:21:11 --> 01:21:15
			don't only keep the shahada to yourself time
		
01:21:15 --> 01:21:18
			for you to go out and inform others
		
01:21:18 --> 01:21:22
			like our prophet when he get the tawheed
		
01:21:22 --> 01:21:27
			then immediately Allah said to him wake up
		
01:21:27 --> 01:21:32
			and go out yeah those who are just
		
01:21:32 --> 01:21:37
			sleeping cover themselves feel comfortable to yourself it's
		
01:21:37 --> 01:21:41
			time for you to get out and call
		
01:21:41 --> 01:21:45
			other people to tawheed that's how Islam spread
		
01:21:45 --> 01:21:49
			and that's how we all became a Muslim
		
01:21:51 --> 01:21:56
			why our father become Muslim because their parents
		
01:21:56 --> 01:22:00
			are Muslim our grandfather when do our grandfather
		
01:22:00 --> 01:22:04
			become Muslim we don't know once upon a
		
01:22:04 --> 01:22:07
			time they are pagan they follow the Hindu
		
01:22:07 --> 01:22:09
			they follow they worship so many other things
		
01:22:09 --> 01:22:14
			then suddenly because of the good preacher the
		
01:22:14 --> 01:22:19
			good dua those who travel around this country
		
01:22:19 --> 01:22:23
			with business intention they don't come here as
		
01:22:23 --> 01:22:28
			a business man but while they are doing
		
01:22:28 --> 01:22:31
			business they are practicing Muslim they pray by
		
01:22:31 --> 01:22:34
			themselves and people are looking at them who
		
01:22:34 --> 01:22:37
			what kind of God do these people worship
		
01:22:37 --> 01:22:41
			who is they worshipping they want to know
		
01:22:41 --> 01:22:46
			and then they start to talk you know
		
01:22:46 --> 01:22:48
			a Dain is like a business man you
		
01:22:48 --> 01:22:51
			have a good product it's time for you
		
01:22:51 --> 01:22:54
			to promote your product but we keep on
		
01:22:54 --> 01:22:58
			failing and that's why every Saturday we have
		
01:22:58 --> 01:23:03
			our activities on new Muslim community to train
		
01:23:03 --> 01:23:09
			everyone of us how to participate how to
		
01:23:09 --> 01:23:11
			get close to the not yet Muslim how
		
01:23:11 --> 01:23:15
			to win them over with the will of
		
01:23:15 --> 01:23:19
			Allah they get Hidayah it's very very important
		
01:23:20 --> 01:23:24
			yesterday when we came back from Sarawak some
		
01:23:24 --> 01:23:27
			people just called us from Indonesia there's a
		
01:23:27 --> 01:23:31
			brother whose mother is a Catholic and the
		
01:23:31 --> 01:23:34
			father is a Shinto believe Japanese you know
		
01:23:34 --> 01:23:40
			they are from Chinese but they can follow
		
01:23:40 --> 01:23:42
			so many other things and the sisters all
		
01:23:42 --> 01:23:47
			are stone Christian and now the brother is
		
01:23:47 --> 01:23:50
			confused the brother is exposed to Islam and
		
01:23:50 --> 01:23:54
			he's the youngest boy and they are doing
		
01:23:54 --> 01:23:59
			business family business he was not ready to
		
01:23:59 --> 01:24:02
			say it out clear to the parent that
		
01:24:02 --> 01:24:06
			he is a Muslim we were informed that
		
01:24:06 --> 01:24:09
			he made Shahada already but he did not

01:25:41 --> 01:25:46

01:25:46 --> 01:26:02
			said whoever love what
		
01:26:02 --> 01:26:06
			Allah love for the sake of Allah hate

01:26:11 --> 01:26:15
			Allah and withhold don't give for the sake
		
01:26:15 --> 01:26:18

01:27:15 --> 01:27:17

			the prophet said you have a sound Iman
		
01:27:25 --> 01:27:31
			your Iman is complete so may Allah make
		
01:27:31 --> 01:27:34

01:27:34 --> 01:27:36
			if there any question now we open for
		
01:27:36 --> 01:27:54
			Q&A again provide
		
01:27:54 --> 01:27:58
			relief and aid to the afflicted Muslim whoever
		
01:27:58 --> 01:28:02
			gives relief to a Muslim from one of
		
01:28:02 --> 01:28:06
			the visitors of this life Allah will relieve
		
01:28:06 --> 01:28:12
			him why is it specifically Muslim why not
		
01:28:13 --> 01:28:18
			man you repeat if a Christian needs help
		
01:28:18 --> 01:28:21
			or a Jew needs help or a Buddhist
		
01:28:21 --> 01:28:24
			or a Shinto or I will help them
		
01:28:24 --> 01:28:27
			who need help you mean who need help
		
01:28:27 --> 01:28:33
			yeah but here it specifies Muslim why based
		
01:28:33 --> 01:28:37
			on the book the author put this his
		
01:28:37 --> 01:28:41
			word but Islamically when you do charitable work
		
01:28:41 --> 01:28:44
			when you do good thing you do good
		
01:28:44 --> 01:28:48
			for everybody but I just quote what is
		
01:28:48 --> 01:28:51
			written in the book by the author but
		
01:28:51 --> 01:28:54
			Islamically in the time of our prophet when
		
01:28:54 --> 01:28:57
			they talk about be kind be good be
		
01:28:57 --> 01:29:03
			helpful is to mankind even to animals you
		
01:29:03 --> 01:29:08
			must also care for other beings because they
		
01:29:08 --> 01:29:12
			are also part of Allah's creation yeah but
		
01:29:12 --> 01:29:15
			the author use this term we just quote
		
01:29:15 --> 01:29:18
			what he said but Islamically when you say
		
01:29:18 --> 01:29:21
			good you're talking good to mankind that's why
		
01:29:21 --> 01:29:26
			I said you are the best for humanity
		
01:29:26 --> 01:29:32
			not only for Muslim no just reminded of
		
01:29:32 --> 01:29:38
			the fires in Australia in 2011 and it
		
01:29:38 --> 01:29:42
			was a bad time particularly in eastern Australia
		
01:29:42 --> 01:29:46
			because the whole east coast was on fire
		
01:29:47 --> 01:29:55
			and the Sikhs the Indians Sikhs did relief
		
01:29:55 --> 01:30:00
			work and the Chinese did relief work and
		
01:30:00 --> 01:30:04
			the Muslims did relief work and so it
		
01:30:04 --> 01:30:09
			went on all these disperse groups were helping
		
01:30:09 --> 01:30:15
			feed the firefighters helping the firefighters everybody was
		
01:30:15 --> 01:30:19
			helping and so this this paragraph to me
		
01:30:19 --> 01:30:24
			I think that's wrong yeah sometime but we
		
01:30:24 --> 01:30:28
			could want the author like to share but
		
01:30:28 --> 01:30:31
			then we also recorrect it that's why we
		
01:30:31 --> 01:30:35
			said we talk about humanity we talk about
		
01:30:35 --> 01:30:39
			not only Muslim but we are dealing with
		
01:30:39 --> 01:30:43
			fellow mankind yeah what you have just said
		
01:30:43 --> 01:30:46
			is very very true that's why when you
		
01:30:46 --> 01:30:49
			see what happened in the time of our
		
01:30:49 --> 01:30:53
			prophet from the early generation when anybody need
		
01:30:53 --> 01:30:56
			help the Muslim is always there to help
		
01:30:56 --> 01:31:00
			anybody who need their help that should be
		
01:31:00 --> 01:31:02
			right spirit like what you just said what
		
01:31:02 --> 01:31:05
			happened in Australia when there's a big fire
		
01:31:05 --> 01:31:09
			everyday is there because we are all like
		
01:31:09 --> 01:31:13
			a big family you see in Islam we
		
01:31:13 --> 01:31:16
			always believe that all of us mankind we
		
01:31:16 --> 01:31:20
			are children of Adam and Eve we are
		
01:31:20 --> 01:31:24
			all one family only when God decide to
		
01:31:24 --> 01:31:27
			make us nation and tribes not for you
		
01:31:27 --> 01:31:31
			to humiliate each other Allah said I make
		
01:31:31 --> 01:31:34
			you nation and tribe not for you to
		
01:31:34 --> 01:31:37
			fight against each other say I'm better than
		
01:31:37 --> 01:31:39
			him just because of race because of color
		
01:31:39 --> 01:31:42
			no so that you get to know each
		
01:31:42 --> 01:31:46
			other help each other and live together in
		
01:31:46 --> 01:31:49
			peace and harmony and the best among you
		
01:31:49 --> 01:31:54
			Allah in the Quran chapter of said is
		
01:31:54 --> 01:31:59
			those who are piety who are connected that
		
01:31:59 --> 01:32:02
			you do not to show off you do
		
01:32:02 --> 01:32:05
			purely for the sake of God then you
		
01:32:05 --> 01:32:09
			feel different you feel satisfied and everybody feel
		
01:32:09 --> 01:32:13
			good so my argument is not with Islam
		
01:32:13 --> 01:32:17
			but with the author of this yeah sometime
		
01:32:17 --> 01:32:20
			the author may have certain wording they use
		
01:32:20 --> 01:32:22
			based on how they feel at that time
		
01:32:22 --> 01:32:26
			so then we will try to rectify it
		
01:32:26 --> 01:32:29
			from time to time Alhamdulillah thank you for
		
01:32:29 --> 01:32:43
			your comment now any next question yeah yes
		
01:32:43 --> 01:32:46
			Sheikh if we wake early in the morning
		
01:32:46 --> 01:32:50
			and there is time before fajar to pray
		
01:32:50 --> 01:32:56
			three rakat is it better to pray once
		
01:32:56 --> 01:32:59
			with two rakat and then pray another time
		
01:32:59 --> 01:33:03
			with one rakat or just to pray three
		
01:33:03 --> 01:33:06
			rakat together yeah it depends on what prayer
		
01:33:06 --> 01:33:09
			we are talking about if you are talking
		
01:33:09 --> 01:33:12
			vitil prayer if you are just talking about
		
01:33:12 --> 01:33:16
			vitil prayer then highly recommend three rakat one
		
01:33:16 --> 01:33:21
			shot yeah if you say i want to
		
01:33:21 --> 01:33:24
			only pray vitil one rakat so two rakat

01:33:29 --> 01:33:31
			you pray two and then you end one
		
01:33:31 --> 01:33:36
			vitil but if your intention is vitil three
		
01:33:36 --> 01:33:43
			is highly recommended okay alhamdulillah now any last
		
01:33:43 --> 01:33:48
			question now fatah sister salam alaikum sheikh alaikum
		
01:33:48 --> 01:33:53
			salam i have two things to ask for
		
01:33:53 --> 01:33:57
			clarification the first one followed the gentleman who
		
01:33:57 --> 01:34:01
			asked about the book the author saying that
		
01:34:01 --> 01:34:06
			help afflicted yes say in a situation where
		
01:34:06 --> 01:34:08
			you have one muslim and one non-muslim
		
01:34:08 --> 01:34:12
			to help you can only help one is
		
01:34:12 --> 01:34:15
			it the muslim that you help first you
		
01:34:15 --> 01:34:18
			must see which one need more okay okay
		
01:34:18 --> 01:34:21
			yes first you must look who need more
		
01:34:21 --> 01:34:25
			more urgent okay that one come first yeah
		
01:34:25 --> 01:34:28
			okay thank you the other one is about
		
01:34:28 --> 01:34:32
			the sunnah prayers as well say if i
		
01:34:32 --> 01:34:37
			intend to do three sunnah prayers um so
		
01:34:37 --> 01:34:44
			uh sunnah wudu tahajjud and witir okay is
		
01:34:44 --> 01:34:46
			that the order that i should do oh
		
01:34:46 --> 01:34:48
			yeah that mean if you want to pray
		
01:34:48 --> 01:34:50
			sunnah wudu after you take your evolution then
		
01:34:50 --> 01:34:54
			the sunnah wudu start it must start with
		
01:34:54 --> 01:34:57
			sunnah wudu okay then you still have time
		
01:34:57 --> 01:35:01
			i want to pray tahajjud then tahajjud tahajjud
		
01:35:01 --> 01:35:05
			witir is always the last okay yeah yeah
		
01:35:05 --> 01:35:08
			you don't pray tahajjud first and wudu no
		
01:35:08 --> 01:35:39
			no earlier
		
01:35:39 --> 01:35:40
			after Ishaq.
		
01:35:41 --> 01:35:44
			Suddenly you wake up because you cannot sleep
		
01:35:44 --> 01:35:47
			now and then you say it's better for
		
01:35:47 --> 01:35:50
			me to pray sunnah than to waste my
		
01:35:50 --> 01:35:54
			morning without doing anything.
		
01:35:55 --> 01:35:59
			Then you can pray your sunnah tahajud or
		
01:35:59 --> 01:36:01
			other sunnah that is recommended by the Prophet
		
01:36:02 --> 01:36:04
			but then there is no more witr.
		
01:36:05 --> 01:36:10
			Please remember because the Prophet said there is
		
01:36:10 --> 01:36:11
			no two witr in one night.
		
01:36:12 --> 01:36:14
			But if you have a plan that I
		
01:36:14 --> 01:36:18
			am going to wake up tonight maybe at
		
01:36:18 --> 01:36:22
			4am or 5am to pray my other sunnah
		
01:36:22 --> 01:36:25
			prayer, tahajud prayer, then you delay witr.
		
01:36:26 --> 01:36:28
			But when you don't have a plan but
		
01:36:28 --> 01:36:30
			suddenly you wake up and you cannot sleep,
		
01:36:30 --> 01:36:31
			you want to pray the sunnah, you can
		
01:36:31 --> 01:36:35
			do but don't repeat the witr again because
		
01:36:35 --> 01:36:38
			the Prophet himself said la witran filay, no
		
01:36:38 --> 01:36:41
			two witr in one night.
		
01:36:42 --> 01:36:46
			So may Allah guide all of us so
		
01:36:46 --> 01:36:49
			that we know how to practice the prayer,
		
01:36:49 --> 01:36:54
			the sunnah prayer and following the adab so
		
01:36:54 --> 01:36:56
			that we follow the system.
		
01:36:57 --> 01:36:57
			Alhamdulillah.
		
01:36:59 --> 01:37:02
			Until we meet up again inshallah, so don't
		
01:37:02 --> 01:37:04
			forget anybody who are free that you can
		
01:37:04 --> 01:37:08
			come and join us every Saturday, you are
		
01:37:08 --> 01:37:11
			highly recommended, Sunday, all of us are recommended
		
01:37:11 --> 01:37:13
			if you have the time.
		
01:37:13 --> 01:37:17
			So that we can be proactive and we
		
01:37:17 --> 01:37:20
			are not just thinking of ourselves, learning for
		
01:37:20 --> 01:37:22
			ourselves but we are here to learn and
		
01:37:22 --> 01:37:23
			share with other people.
		
01:37:28 --> 01:37:31
			Subhanakallahumma wabihamdika.
		
01:37:31 --> 01:37:33
			Let us recite this together.
		
01:37:34 --> 01:37:39
			Subhanakallahumma wabihamdika.
		
01:37:39 --> 01:37:46
			Ash hadu an la ilaha illa anta, astaghfiruka
		
01:37:46 --> 01:37:48
			wa atubu ilaik.
		
01:37:49 --> 01:37:52
			The meaning of this prayer, glory be to
		
01:37:52 --> 01:37:54
			you O Allah, we bear witness there is
		
01:37:54 --> 01:37:57
			none and all praises belong to you.
		
01:37:58 --> 01:38:00
			We bear witness there is none worthy of
		
01:38:00 --> 01:38:01
			worship except you alone.
		
01:38:02 --> 01:38:04
			To you we ask for forgiveness, to you
		
01:38:04 --> 01:38:07
			we repent, forgive us and accept our repentance.
		
01:38:08 --> 01:38:08
			Ameen.
