and prepared, have that provision for indeed the best provision is TBWA it's the consciousness of Allah subhanahu wa Tada. So the question is, what kind of journey does a person PAC consciousness of Allah subhanahu wa Tada for? You see, that is the journey to Allah Allah believes that he will general Allah subhanahu Attallah. He says these verses and we know that they are related to those people of Yemen, who would actually go for Hajj saying we are trusting Allah subhanahu wa taala he will provide and they would not take any provision with them and they will get to the Hajj and then suffer from difficulty problems, lack of food, clothing, etc. Allah subhanahu wa Attalus is what is
overdue, and seek that provision make sure you come prepared for the journey. This journey of life is more important for us to prepare. And this is why Allah subhanahu Attallah says, For inhale Azadi at Taqwa for indeed the best provision is the consciousness of Allah subhanho wa Taala you know your suitcase of the earth here. Let's think of it like that. What have you packed in it? Have you packed your Salah Have you packed it in a professional manner you know, today you have those packing cubes that you get have You ensured that every little action of your Salah is perfect your father your your mother, your Isha? Was it in the masjid Did you ensure all of this and then put your Salah into
one corner and then pick up these occur and ensure that it was done on time properly ensuring that you gave it in the right cause? etc. So all of your actions Have you packed that bag of yours for the day that you will meet Allah herbalist that you will general you know, Sulaiman if not Abdul Malik was a leader of the past. And he was once asked, and will has him who was a scholar he said melon and Acropolis mount, what is it with us that we despise death? When we think of death, we think of sadness, we think of depression, we think of difficulty and hardship, why do we despise death? So much? So he replied Leanna Kumar Mattoon dunya come well how to overcome the inner contact
Kahuna and tentec Illumina la Milani la hub, because you have built up this world and you have destroyed your Akeelah you haven't built anything there you have left it derelict, abandoned. So you hate to go from that which you have built to that which you have destroyed. Allahu Akbar. You know, if I were to tell you that you're going to live for the next 30 days in this room, and you decide, okay, that's fine, but I'm going to make it a luxurious
leaving, I'm going to ensure that I have the best of bedding and the best of food and the best of clothing and only think about the 30 days that I'm going to live in this room. That would be absurd. We would all say, You will not. There's something wrong with you. Why are you building up this room? When you know you're going to leave it? You're pouring? 1000s if not millions of dollars into a room that you're going to ultimately leave? What do we do?
What do we do with this? dunya? Allah subhanho wa Taala has given us 50 years, 60 years, 70 years, if we are lucky, perhaps if we are fortunate, Allah subhanho wa Taala has given us 80 to 90 years in this world, after which we will go to meet him. But what do we do we prepare for this world? We make our existence luxury existence luxurious. So we want the best of cars and the best of houses. Not thinking about the fact that we are actually heading to the earth here. Nothing wrong with having for this dunya nothing wrong with building the dunya build it Allah subhanahu Attallah has given you to enjoy it, have partake of it. But don't forget the Athena. The problem with us today is we forget
the akhirah we think about this world at the expense of the archaea. The RTR doesn't matter anymore. Why? Because we're enjoying ourselves. And this is why we say that even trial and tribulation is a mercy from Allah subhanho wa Taala why you find a rich man in a castle a palace, enjoying his life, living a life of luxury, and all of a sudden, he is diagnosed with cancer. What happened? What's that? That's a reminder from Allah, Allah Boulez that he will Jellal come back to Allah subhanahu wa taala. Turn back to Allah subhanahu Attallah you are headed somewhere. Think about that. You know,
these, this existence of the earth healer is amazing. Because as we sit in this room, and we breathe, the air that we breathe, and we look at each other and we smile at each other and we see that the walls exist and the fan exists and these lights exist. And this Masjid exists and we are going home we will walk on a road and it is as real as it comes. There is a another existence. The angels are there. The devils are there. Allah subhanahu Attallah the greatest the highest is existent. It is all there it exists right here right now. The only difference is that you don't see it. Oh, in SAM, all that needs to happen is you're nervous, you know, your breath that you take
needs to stop and it becomes more real to you than this world that is in front of you. Have you ever thought of it like that? You know, any one of us at any time, just the veil needs to drop which veil, the veil of this world. It is simply an illusion that we're living in and after which we will have to return to Allah Who Will is that he will just let you know when that veil is lifted, then we will be able to see the reality of life. And this is what happened to be around. When death came to him. What did he do? He said, I believe in the Lord of Musa and Harun today I'm ready I surrender to Allah subhanho wa Taala and Allah Allah will is that he will Joab says
is it now is it now what are they outside? You tell come in work. Tell me and I'll move CD and you were from those who are disobedient before you disobeyed Allah subhanho wa Taala before and you are from amongst those who caused corruption on earth. Is it now that you're turning to Allah Arambula? Is that your general? Why did he turn to Allah subhanho wa Taala because he saw Jibreel he saw the angel of death he realized that this is all true. I didn't believe in it, but it's here right now it's in front of me. So there he was uttering the shahada yet all of his life. He said an hour bucola Allah I am your lord the highest Allahu Bucha is that he will prove to him that he is nobody
he is nothing
he said he you know minute dairy lamb Jaco che
Kula did a day not come upon in son when he was not even something remembered something mentioned. Then that day came that day happened, you will not even mentioned you will not even known before you came into this world. People never even knew that you would exist. And after you leave this world, they will pass a few years and people will not even know that you exist.
History Allahu Akbar. Take a walk into the graveyard. Take a walk into the cemetery. Alpha Zulu, ha, behold, visit the graveyard. The Imnaha to the killed Are Here For indeed, it reminds you of the RTR and look at those tombstones. Do you know who Muhammad is? My aim was who lived in 1900? And who Ibrahim Adam was who lived in the 1800s? Do you even know them? Do you even recognize those faces? Do you know these people existed? That is you and I 100 years from now. So all you have in this world is the access to the Life The life span that Allah subhanho wa Taala has given you the access to this dunya that's all and this is why the hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is
profound there could have no other money money. The son of Edward says it is my wealth. It is my wealth. Well Hannah can be Malika Kelton and is there anything for you from your wealth except for that which you ate?
Oh la vista for Anbieter or that which you actually our VISTA, the ablator or you wore it and it became raggedy and tone. Oh does a doctor underwriter or you sent it forward to the earth era. So you left it for yourself? You see, we think our wealth is ours. Perhaps if you own this, you think it is mine. You own this bottle you think it is yours. You own your clothes, you think it is mine forever. You own your house you think it is yours you have your children you think they are owned by you, you have your luxury car, you think it is yours, Allah subhanho wa Taala is telling you that that is yours for the time span that I have given you access to it for after which it will not
belong to you anymore, it will belong to your heirs it will belong to somebody else. So they will have access to it for a short period of time, after which they will move on into the earth here. So what does the human being who is intelligent do he sits and he thinks about his life? And he says Hold on? Is it better for me to sacrifice the everlasting? That which will be forever and ever and ever for a few years? 3040 50 years? Is it worth it? Is it a good trade? Or is it better for me to sell these 3040 50 years for the sake of Allah subhanho wa Taala
in Allah I still Amina meaning full sell home while I'm well bn Mellon Legion. Indeed Allah has bought the wealth and the souls of the people so that they may receive Jana in return. So Allah subhanahu wa taala has actually bought that from you. Are you offering it to him? Are you giving Him your life? Are you giving him your wealth? Are you giving him everything that is within your capacity to give him for the sake of the everlasting? Or are you doing the opposite by giving everything in the earth here for the sake of this world sacrificing your Jana sacrificing aldora Leave sacrificing the pleasures and the enjoyment of seeing Allah Allah believes that he will Jellal
