			Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen ilaha illAllah amin will be here in a
serene on Osan Leona Salim Allah her Tamil ambia even more serene the Bina Mohamed Salah. He was
like me he married a lot Marisa in love john Moosa
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:42
			hasn't either she has
		
00:00:43 --> 00:01:10
			obvious Sinhala to assume hmm we'll hire what we can a story. We send colossal cannon who and Tyler
for having gathered us here once again. And we ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to surround us with the
meta aka, and to cause his mercy and His Sakina to descend upon us and to raise us with the MBR
alayhi wa Salatu was Salam and those whom he has mentioned with them, I mean
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:15
			the names of Allah subhana wa tada
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:21
			are only taken from he himself or boulerice that he will
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:44
			or Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. The reason for this is because who knows Allah subhana wa
tada better than himself. Nobody can describe Allah subhana wa Tada. Better than he can to us.
		
00:01:45 --> 00:02:40
			And nobody has knowledge of Allah subhanahu wa tada except that knowledge which he has given to
mankind, and that can only come from a newbie of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And we all know that the
final messenger from above subhanho wa Taala is Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam money on
quantum However, he does not speak of his own desire in who in what you knew her. Indeed it is why
he and revelation from Allah subhanahu wa Tada. So whichever the names are lots of kind of who Allah
told us of himself, we affirm them to him, and whichever names Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told
us of Allah subhana wa tada we affirm those names to Allah subhanho wa Taala and anything else that
		
00:02:40 --> 00:02:47
			we have heard from others, then we will not affirm these as names and attributes of Allah subhanho
wa Taala.
		
00:02:48 --> 00:03:12
			The name or was ik and our Rosa belong to a bullish that he was jealous he says in Allah who are
Rosa poo till Mateen Indeed Allah subhanahu wa tada is the one who sustains constantly and he is the
one who is the possessor of the firm power.
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			Allah subhanho wa Taala says,
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			woman is the
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:34
			and there is no thing that treads on earth with its two feet tall with how many feet it has.
		
00:03:35 --> 00:04:17
			In law here is skaha except that it's raised is upon Allah subhanho wa Taala. So if anything is
treading on Earth, then that thing is its risk is taken care of by Allah subhanho wa Taala It does
not have to worry about its risk, the ends the cockroaches, the mouse, the mice, the rats, the human
beings, the vermin, all taken care of by Allah how cool is that you are jealous, yet we find that
human beings there is was guaranteed to them
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:34
			by Allah subhanho wa Taala and that which they were created for which is the worship of Allah
subhanahu wa tada which leads to Jana was not guaranteed to them. Yet you find a human being
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:48
			he engages his entire life in finding that which was guaranteed for him and completely discards that
which was not guaranteed for him which is
		
00:04:50 --> 00:05:00
			so what kind of minds do we have? What kind of understanding do we have in order to engage in such
behavior? A lot of people
		
00:05:00 --> 00:06:01
			Who? attallah he says yeah yohannes Oh people with Coronavirus Allah He I remember the name and the
bounty of Allah subhanho wa Taala upon you hadn't even heard it in La Jolla, Zoo Mina Santa, is
there any being Is there any creator that will grant you that risk besides Allah subhanho wa Taala
there is nobody that sustains us besides propolis that he will general there is nobody that provides
for us besides Allah subhanho wa Taala yet we find ourselves engaged in that which we engage in that
which leads us to that which was made for us, the entire world and everything that is contained in
it was made for us. Yet we find ourselves engaging in that which was made for us, and discarding
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:43
			that which we were made for. We were made for the worship of Allah subhanho wa Taala or Mahalo to
Jean Noah insert in early Abu Dune, and I did not create mankind and Jim kind except that they may
worship. So let us work towards that which we were created for and forget about or don't forget
about it. But let us not worry so much to the extent that we make it our life purpose, in order to
find the risk that was guaranteed for us. Allah subhanho wa Taala says in Allah was preserved indeed
he is the one who constantly provides now when a person finds himself at times,
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:46
			getting from a certain direction
		
00:06:47 --> 00:07:35
			for years on end, he is receiving from his employer for years on end he is receiving from his
business. He sees that the risk comes from the business or not from the business, but through the
business. Or he sees that that risk comes from or through his boss when he begins to rely on that
boss or on that business, for the risk. But Allah subhanahu wa tada sometimes will change that in a
split moment. In order for him to understand that he is our boss, you find that a person loses his
job, you find that a person's business burns down. Why Because Allah subhana wa tada is reminding
you that it is Allah subhanho wa Taala who is
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:38
			a fellow at
		
00:07:40 --> 00:07:42
			the Tisha Boone
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:46
			to moon
		
00:07:47 --> 00:08:04
			and new moon the new moon Do you see the water that you drink? Are you the ones who bring it down
from the cloud or is it is it us that bring it down from the cloud for a tool of a tomato?
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:09
			Do you see that which you plant into the earth and
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:12
			and
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:15
			Tesla owner who
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:23
			is it you who causes it to grow? Or is it us who grow causes it to grow?
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:31
			to more novelty to rune? Do you see the fire that you ignite? And
		
00:08:33 --> 00:08:48
			are you the ones who cause the trees to grow from which the fire comes from a national munchy own?
Or are we the ones who cause those trees to grow? It is a massive Hannah hula tada ultimately who
our risk comes from.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:50
			There were two brothers
		
00:08:51 --> 00:08:53
			and these brothers,
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			they were arguing with each other
		
00:08:56 --> 00:09:15
			and one was telling the other that you know risk it will come to me whether I am sitting in my home
and doing nothing to attain that risk or not. And the second brother says to him that Allah subhanho
wa Taala will not provide for you if you do be sitting and you will die of hunger.
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:37
			So use it here I am going out. I am going to work and look for that risk. So the second brother he
goes out and he walks and after some time he comes to an apple tree and he plucks an apple and he
says you see Allah subhanahu wa tada provided for me because I went out and looked for that with
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:40
			and he goes back to his brother.
		
00:09:41 --> 00:09:52
			And when he gets to the brother He says, you see Allah subhanahu wa tada provided me with this apple
because I went out and I looked for it, and then he takes it and he throws it at him
		
00:09:53 --> 00:09:54
			and
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:05
			sent his brother and he says yes, but who ate from this apple? Do you not see that?
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:09
			provided for me even though I was sitting in the home.
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:11
			So amongst
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:27
			us It is not our moving on the earth that will provide for us it is not our businesses that will
provide us It is not our employers that will provide for us it is Allah subhanho wa Taala but
someone may us
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:33
			two brothers who was doing that which Allah subhanho wa Taala was pleased
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:36
			was the first one because you
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:39
			can have one
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:47
			vote and look, look for your risk. Thumbs up man I can go out and tread upon the earth
		
00:10:50 --> 00:10:51
			was
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:56
			another was this obedient to Allah subhanho wa Taala.
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:17
			The two types of risk number one, the one that Allah subhanho wa Taala provides for everyone. This
includes the catheter. This includes the machinery This includes the one who is disobedient to Allah
subhanho wa Taala also pseudo loss Allahu alayhi wa sallam he mentions in a
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:51
			lecture on us bawana minima, there is no one more. There is no one more patient upon the harm then
Allah subhanho wa Taala in the homeland Runa who wanted indeed they call out to him a son. They
associate a son with Allah subhana wa tada what loyalzoo and he has his there is he provides for
them. We are hammer him and he has Rama upon them imagined whilst they are calling out
		
00:11:52 --> 00:12:24
			and associating a partner with Allah subhanho wa Taala that he provides for them and he has urashima
upon them. Allah subhanho wa Taala says to do something, what do you mean only him are meaningful to
him? The skies were to split asunder from what they were saying that Allah subhanho wa Taala has a
son. It whilst they are saying this, Allah subhanho wa Taala continues to provide for them. Allah
subhanho wa Taala continues to grant them
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:26
			when
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:28
			a loved one who
		
00:12:31 --> 00:12:34
			have a loved one who he
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:38
			would trust in Allah subhanho wa Taala to provide for
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:54
			the loved one who was a Sahabi of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that we know very well. And
this is a hobby. He once had a beggar who came to his home.
		
00:12:55 --> 00:13:27
			And this beggar came to the home and he was asking for something something so while you're on the
Allahu anhu goes back into his house, and he begins to look for some Durham's, some gold coins, or
some silver coins that he had. And he cannot find this. So he took some time to come back. In the
meanwhile, the beggar found a bridle of the horse of earlier on the Allahu anhu that was sitting in
the home. So he snatched this bridle and he left he went, he stole it.
		
00:13:29 --> 00:13:47
			So an idea of the Allahu anhu came, he noticed that his bridle was missing and this man was gone. So
he left it to a muscle panel over time. And he told me his servant that was there that take these
gold coins that I was going to give this man and give it and going by a bridle that we need.
		
00:13:48 --> 00:14:32
			So he went out to the marketplace. And he looked for a bridle, he found one and he bought it and
when he bought this bridle and it came back to earlier the a lot more and then earlier the man who
is looking at it, and he says will lie It is as though it is my bridle, the very same one that this
man stole. So this man had actually stolen this and taken his risk by a hammer means yet had he
waited for a few moments, you would have received the same Durham's that Harley or the loved one who
would have given him by they hadn't means. So sometimes we find ourselves trying to hasten our risk,
		
00:14:34 --> 00:15:00
			yet it is written for us Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says that if a human being was to
run away from his risk in the matter, that he runs away from death letter aka Horace Koo Kumba, you
will note his race would have found him in the same manner that his death would have found him. So
let us not hasten our trust in our Razzaq to provide for us trust in our
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:30
			Was it to provide for us. The next game that we will be discussing is and why? Allah subhanho wa
Taala. He mentioned this in a sutra that we all resigned so often in our Salah. He says guru Allahu
Ahad say He is Allah, the One. Now this surah is so small in its verses. If we look at it, it is a
few verses who who Allahu Allahu Samad Let me read what am unit what am ia kulambu
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:48
			and the surah has ended. Yet it is so vast in meaning that Allah subhanahu wa tada has made it equal
to a third of the Quran. Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam asked me companions One day, he says
if I had to come near
		
00:15:50 --> 00:16:16
			any fee later, is it impossible for one of you to recite a third of the Quran in one night. So, the
companions they found this difficult and Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told them that cold
war love is equal to a third of the poor. Now someone may ask, why is it that the surah has so much
value in it?
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:27
			The reason is if we take a look at the meanings of pulwama well I had it is Allah subhanho wa Taala
discussing Allah.
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:57
			It is Allah subhanahu wa taala talking about himself, Guru Allahu Ahad, say He is Allah the word. So
Allah subhanahu wa tada is the only one that is worthy of worship. He is the only one that is unique
in his actions, he is unique in his names and his qualities. He is unique in the fact that he is to
be worshipped. When the Jews and the Christians
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:35
			they worship they associate partners with Allah subhanho wa Taala. So you find that some some Jews,
they claim that Jose is the son of Allah, and the Christians they claim that Raisa is the son of
Allah. And when it comes to the Zoroastrians, then they claim that the Son is worthy of worship and
the moon is worthy of worship and the idolaters they worship the idols. So when all of these people
were doing all of these things, then Allah subhanho wa Taala revealed the surah Allah,
		
00:17:36 --> 00:18:25
			saying he is Allah, the one the only one worthy of worship. So look at the beauty of our religion,
it is based on this rule, it is based on the fact that Allah subhanahu wa tada is the only one
worthy of worship some of the lessons that we learn from God who Allah say He is Allah, the One is
that Allah subhanho wa Taala there is nothing similar to him. So if a person thinks that perhaps the
hand of Allah subhanho wa Taala is similar to the hand of a human being, that this is a completely
wrong understanding. Yes, Allah subhanho wa Taala has a hand yes Allah subhanahu wa tada has a foot
but ladies that come with me shade, there is nothing similar to him in any way. What who was Sonny
		
00:18:25 --> 00:19:11
			Rubenstein? And he is the old hearing the old seeing human being see human beings Yeah, but the
hearing of Allah subhanho wa Taala is not like that of a human being. When he hears he hears
everything in existence, when he sees he sees everything in existence. So that is why we are not
similar and Allah subhanho wa Taala is not similar to us in any way whatsoever. Someone may ask, how
is it that these qualities come about? Our minds are too small to fathom. And to understand how
these qualities take place. Our minds are too small to understand who Allah subhanho wa Taala is in
reality
		
00:19:12 --> 00:19:24
			and this is why when you have the hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam telling you or
ramudu la ha can Nikita Allah worship Allah subhana wa tada as though you see him
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:59
			then never describe this description that you see of Allah subhana wa tada in your mind. Because
whatever you have seen in your mind of Allah subhanho wa Taala is not actually the real and true
description of Allah subhanho wa Taala our minds are too small to understand who he is. Our minds
are too small to fathom who he is. We will only realize this on the day of the AMA when the job is
lifted, and we will see Allah subhanho wa Taala this sight of Allah subhanho wa Taala is so
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:06
			mazing to the human being, and so amazing to everything in existence, that Allah subhanho wa Taala
says,
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:08
			the home
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			owner fee
		
00:20:14 --> 00:20:29
			fee that they will have in general, whatever the heart's desire, whatever they want of the heart's
desire they will have, but we have more than that. What is more than the heart's desire?
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:39
			It is the sight of Allah subhanho wa Taala when the hijab is lifted and the people will stare at of
Allah subhana wa tada
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:53
			the believers in Allah subhanho wa Taala will be enjoying the sight of Allah subhanho wa Taala
Imagine seeing the being whom you placed your head on the ground for your entire life.
		
00:20:54 --> 00:21:09
			The being home, you gave us a cap for the being whom you fasted the entire month of Ramadan for you
gave up all of these desires for the sake of this being You will now see him. Imagine the pleasure
that you feel see you make.
		
00:21:11 --> 00:21:37
			So Allah subhanho wa Taala is too huge for us to imagine him whatever is in our minds, let us not
describe this to anybody else. The third benefit that we can benefit from kulu Allah who say He is
Allah the one ultimately all of perfection belongs to Allah subhanho wa Taala what an ILA
		
00:21:38 --> 00:22:24
			and it is to Allah subhanho wa Taala that is the end. So there is nothing beyond Allah subhana wa
attallah there is nothing after Allah subhanho wa Taala there is nothing greater than Allah subhana
wa Tada. And that is why he is the ultimate of perfection. When we learn about the Allah and who was
being punished, there were some, there were some companions with him. And these companions were
being punished one by one, they would say whatever the co founder of coalition wanted them to say,
is alert your god they would say yes is all manner to God, they would say yes, because they did not
believe in their hearts, that this was the case. But they just said it in order to get away from the
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:39
			punishment. But Billa lipno raba are the Allahu anhu. Being a companion who had emerged in his heart
to the extent that even if you were killed, you would he would not give up that Shahada. He
continued to say
		
00:22:42 --> 00:23:05
			it is only a lie, worship it is only a lie, worship, do whatever you want to do to me, it is only
Allah worship. Because this man had tasted kafir. This man had tasted this belief in his heart. He
knew what it was to disbelieve in the maker. And then all of a sudden he tasted the beauty of he
man, the
		
00:23:06 --> 00:23:53
			opening of the chests that the man brings into the heart of a believer. So he continued to hold on
to this. And no matter how much we are persecuted in our lives, we should never let go of this man
in our hearts. People will come to you and tell you give up your values give up your your your your
principles. But don't give us give up give up this man because how long are you going to live in
this dunya? How long are you going to live in the studio? room at Medina see Tina Elizabeth II, the
age of my own mother, the average age of my oma is between 60 and 70 years. So you will live 60 and
70 years, and then you will die and then they will be the everlasting not 1000 years, not 2000
		
00:23:53 --> 00:24:03
			years, not 5000 years, not 10,000 years everlasting forever and ever. It never comes to an end. So
if you sacrifice for a little bit in this dunya
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:53
			and you worship Allah subhanho wa Taala alone until you die, then you will receive everlasting
bliss. A person who has a bit of understanding, you will understand that it is a bargain that Allah
subhanho wa Taala has given him 50 to 60 years in this dunya in exchange for everlasting bliss. This
is not something that a believer even questions he does it without question. So this Islam, that
Allah Subhana who Allah has bestowed us with, is the greatest nightmare that a human being can hold
on to. And this is why Pablo de Allah and who would say no come on, as an Allah who will Islam we
are a people whom Allah subhana wa tada raised with Islam, pharma
		
00:24:56 --> 00:25:00
			as an animal, so whenever we choose to have all
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:05
			with anything besides it, Allah subhanahu wa taala will discipline us.
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:06
			So our,
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:37
			our faith in Allah subhanho wa Taala is the prized possession that we have, and we should hold on to
it regardless, regardless of what systems are placed into our lives in order to control those lives,
remember that the ultimate system and the best system is the system that belongs to Allah subhanho
wa Taala the Sahaba harrowby Allahu anhu value the man and they value the belief and faith in Allah
subhanho wa Taala because remember that people like
		
00:25:38 --> 00:26:23
			the Allahu anhu they say that we made idols from dates and we worship those idols. They knew what it
was to taste Cofer in Allah subhanho wa Taala. So when they enjoyed that belief in Allah subhanho wa
Taala, then they never gave up the belief even those of us hab who uttered the word of disbelief but
believed in the hearts they remained true believers in the hearts and this is why Allah subhanho wa
Taala says in them and except for the one who is being completely forced, someone is holding a gun
to your head, hey, this believe in Allah subhanho wa Taala you are allowed to utter the word of
disbelief, but you will believe in your heart in order to get away from that.
		
00:26:24 --> 00:27:18
			He is Allah The only one who is worthy of worship, the only one who is unique in his actions and his
names and attributes. The next name is a summit. Allah subhanho wa Taala after he mentioned polvo
Allahu Ahad. He mentioned Allah or summit. Allah is a summit. The Arabs used to call a being or a
person who had no stomach. They would call this person a summit. They would call this person a
summit because this person, it was as though they were saying he is not in need of food and drink.
Although this is not true, because a summit is only for Allah subhanho wa Taala. So they would call
a person who had no stomach a summit because they felt that this person is so independent that he
		
00:27:18 --> 00:28:06
			will never bother about food and drink, he will never need to worry about where his next meal is
coming from. Now Allah subhanahu wa tada is a solid because he does not need to eat he does not need
to drink he does not need to procreate, Allah subhanho wa Taala does not need to give birth to a
child. And that is why the end of the surah says lemmya it he did not give birth what a mule at nor
was he given birth to what am I putting the hoopoe on a hat and there is no body that is equal to
Allah subhanho wa Taala. Now, when a person is in dire need, and when a person is in a dire
situation, then who will that person go to? Will they go to the beggar on the street? Will they go
		
00:28:06 --> 00:29:00
			to the one who is so poor that they cannot feed themselves? Or will they go to the one who is
independent of everyone who needs not to be fed? Who needs not to be clothed? Who needs not to be
granted some water in order to drink? So a person who understands who a summit is will only go back
to Allah subhanho wa Taala even I bus a lot the Allahu anhu he says a summit a say you do let the
camela feel that he he is the master who is complete in his mastery was Sharif and ledee camela Fie
Shafi and he is the noble one who is complete in his nobility, one lousy, Allah the camela fee
ultimately he and he is the great The one who is complete in his greatness will Aleem and Lady
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:32
			Kamala V and the one who is all knowledgeable and he is complete in his knowledge, while Hakeem and
Lady Kamala Hekmati and he is the one who is most wise and he is complete in his wisdom, which one
of us can claim that we are complete in our wisdom, which one of us can claim that we are complete
in our element, and we are complete in our knowledge and we are complete in our mastery, none of us
can claim this. It only belongs to Allah subhanho wa Taala mm
		
00:29:34 --> 00:29:37
			hmm Allahu taala. He mentions a man.
		
00:29:38 --> 00:29:49
			He mentions of a man who came to LA sudo masala Allahu alayhi wa sallam, and he asked him, he says
that to which Allah Are you calling? So
		
00:29:50 --> 00:29:59
			are two What are you calling to? Sort of pseudo lasala hora de He will send them says to Allah
Subhana Bhutan, the one whom when ha
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:52
			befalls you he relieves that harm and that distress, the one whom when you are lost in the
wilderness, then he is the one who brings you back. The one who when drought afflicts you, then he
