00:00:00 --> 00:00:13
			One of the great scholars of our religion one of the great scholars of the set of manda Cuban dinar
Rama, Allah Tala was once walking by a graveyard.
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:37
			And as he walked by the graveyard, he remarks and he said, Massa keen to do dunya Hora juman Ha,
woman out we have mafia. He said, How unfortunate are these people of the dunya that they left this
dunya they left this world and they didn't get to taste the best of it.
		
00:00:39 --> 00:00:45
			So those were with him they asked him called woman out here movie what is the best of this world?
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:57
			So he said to the man artifacts in LA he Azerbaijan had battle. He said it is knowing Allah subhanaw
taala and having love for Allah azza wa jal.
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:01
			This is the greatest of the dunya
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:04
			How difficult is life?
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			When a person does not know Allah subhanaw taala?
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:22
			How difficult is it for them to know how to react to the events happening in their life? How
difficult is that? Is it for them to know what their role their responsibility is in this world?
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:36
			How difficult is it to live? When you don't know who the human being is to begin with? What the
human being is to begin with, what your role is in life, what your purpose is in this world.
		
00:01:38 --> 00:01:40
			So what he said is imminently true
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:50
			that those who do not have the relationship with Allah subhanaw taala. Those who don't know Allah
azza wa jal, they live a very difficult life.
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:58
			And those who know Allah azza wa jal, they've tasted the best of what there is in this world.
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:31
			And so in today's football, I want to speak shortly about one of the names of Allah subhanaw taala.
Just so that we can develop some knowledge of Allah azza wa jal, so that we can know how to have
some form of relationship with our Creator Subhana Allah. Allah gives us His names and attributes,
so that we develop a relationship with Him, so that we understand who Allah subhanaw taala is, Allah
azza wa jal says in the Quran,
		
00:02:32 --> 00:03:12
			your fear home Oduro home, why is he the human family in no foreign Shaco he says that he may give
them in full the reward and that means that he may increase for them their bounty, and that he is
afforded forgiving, and shockula the one who is appreciative. Allah subhanaw taala gives himself
these names, a shack here, and attributes and innate attributes of being appreciative. And a Shaco
subhanho wa taala, either the one who by His will and His generosity, he always increases
		
00:03:13 --> 00:04:02
			he increases for the one who gives him Schuco literally is to increase something. Allah subhanaw
taala is a shithole and that when you give him something subhanahu wa taala. He increases it.
linguistically, the Arabs would say a damper Shaku the animal, the beast that is shackle, the horse,
the camel, what did they mean by that, they meant you would give it a little bit of food, a little
bit of water, and it would go a long distance, it will give you a great amount of output, even
though you gave it a small amount of inputs, a small amount of water and food and they gave you a
lot of energy. So they would say this animal is shackled. They would also say out of the shuffled
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:36
			the land that is shackled, you will give a very little water and yet somehow it would give you a lot
of produce. It would give you a lot of fruits, where you gave us a little and yet the reward was
multiplied. So they would call it shockula. And this is the reality of understanding Allah subhanaw
taala either with this name of being a Shaku is that he is the one who appreciates and increases the
very little that you present Allah azza wa jal you gain some very little and
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:59
			you gain from very little in devotion. Yet Allah subhanaw taala took it and he multiplied its
reward. He increased its reward and he gave you in this dunya and he gives you in the next but the
key is for you to have a relationship with Allah azza wa jal through this name of being a Shaco. The
key is you have to give him some
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:39
			One thing, you have to present something, you can't go with nothing. Allah gives, He takes what is
little from you, and He multiplies you gives you more back. But you have to give something. Allah
subhanaw taala says, all my active has written Musee de la houfy HyperSnap whoever commits a good
deed, we will increase for him the good. Allah subhanaw taala will give you an increase in it in the
home of oran shellcode indeed He is Forgiving and Appreciative, any good deed, even the small good
deeds are glorified in this religion.
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:48
			Not because of the smallness of the deed, but because of the greatness of the one who appreciates
the good that we do.
		
00:05:50 --> 00:06:31
			We know our religion. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us if you remove something
harmful from the street, this is a super fun. If you smile in the face of your brother, this is a
Celica, the smallest of deeds, kissing the hand of your mother, taking care of an animal. These
small deeds are ones that are appreciated by Allah subhanaw taala because you're dealing with a
shithole you're dealing with the one who is the most appreciative. You may forget these deeds you
pick up some literally throw it in the garbage, you forget that you did it. Allah subhana wa Tada
did not forget. I shuffled it does not forget them. I shuffle rewards them, and increases it's good.
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:49
			Our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam tells us it took me now well, I'll be shocked if I'm wrong.
He said protect yourself. guard yourself against the hellfire, even if it is with half of idiots.
And you think you know this statement of our Prophet sallallahu
		
00:06:51 --> 00:07:02
			you may be above receiving half of the dates. If someone took a date and broken in half and gave you
half you may say I don't want it. I'll take the one that's untouched.
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:24
			Yet Allah subhanaw taala if someone gave even that small amounts in southern Africa, with sincerity,
the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says this may protect the person from the hellfire. So he
tells you guard yourself against the hellfire, even if all you're giving is half of a day's Allah
subhanaw taala it is a shocker.
		
00:07:26 --> 00:08:03
			And he will give you when you give to Allah azza wa jal the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
tells us they are the one that had the comb mineral in our fish. He said Do not let any one of you
belittle anything that is good. Do not belittle any good deeds. Do not ever be the person who says
you know this, this is too small of a deed. This is too small of a good deed. I'm gonna do something
else. Never do that. He's an even if it is meeting your brother with a cheerful face. Even if the
good deed is that when you see a Muslim brother you smile. You're cheerful.
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:18
			He's a nurturer. Never be Lilith. Why? Because you are dealing with a Sharkwater Subhana wa Tada.
You're dealing with the ones subhanaw taala can take that good deed and give you multiples and
reward in return.
		
00:08:19 --> 00:08:22
			The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Once he said
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:30
			manfaat Allah saw Iman Kana icon, the Rakata human and now whoever feed someone who is fasting,
		
00:08:31 --> 00:08:35
			it may be what frees their neck from the hellfire.
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:55
			Some of the companions that came to the prophets, Allah where it was sent in the city, Allah so
Allah, this, what you said, prefers the wealthy over us. He said the wealthy Sahaba they can buy a
meal, and they can feed the person who's fasting. They said, We're poor, we don't have anything.
		
00:08:57 --> 00:08:58
			So we don't get the reward.
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:14
			The Prophet sallallahu either you send them he said, this reward is even for the One Who fetches a
cup of water and gives it to the one who's fasting. Just go get the water and give it to the one is
fasting, you will get the same reward.
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:38
			Because it's not enough to deed it's another one. Subhana Horta, Allah who appreciates the good
deeds that we do. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam tells us manakala Hashem Nikita villa,
Farah will be Hassan, whoever recites a single lecture from the book of Allah will receive a good
deed and the good deed is multiplied by 10.
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:59
			And then he said, a pool Alif Lam him how to further can elephant how to follow up on heartful
memory and the Prophet sallallahu sallam said I'm not saying and if learning is a harder is a letter
is a word. Is it? No I'm saying Elif is a lecture that you will be rewarded one reward multiplied by
10 and lamb is a lecture you will be rewarded one reward multiplied
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:43
			by 10 and mean is the letter one reward multiplied by 10. All of this reward I remember sometimes
when I'm younger, and our teachers would tell us read the Quran each letters are award and each
reward is multiplied by 10. I'd say why like why all these numbers? But you realize the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is teaching us this for us to understand who is it you're dealing with?
You're dealing with Allah subhanaw taala. And just the small effort you present, Allah subhanaw
taala will give you a reward and multiply the reward on top of it, to tell you given efforts to tell
you take a step towards Allah subhanaw taala to tell you present something with sincerity to Allah
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:47
			azza wa jal. We know the hadith of our Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
		
00:10:48 --> 00:10:50
			that a man was in the deserts
		
00:10:51 --> 00:11:11
			and he was thirsty. And he finally comes across a well, and he gets himself some water and he
punches his thirst. And then he looks to see a dog and the dog is also thirsty. And he says, This
dog is in the same situation I was in. So he goes down into the well again.
		
00:11:13 --> 00:11:26
			And he fills his slipper with water and he comes out and he gives it to the dark. And the Prophet
sallallahu where it will send them says, For Shaka Allahu Allah who, for woofie Radha who fed
hullavington Silva for an ova.
		
00:11:27 --> 00:11:56
			Allah subhanaw taala appreciated. Fisher for Allah Allah, Allah appreciated what he did, and forgave
his sins and entered him into Jana. Just forgiving water to a dog. Why? Because of his sincerity,
and because he is dealing with a lord Subhana wa Tada who appreciates the good that we put forward.
We know that hadith of our Prophet Sall Allahu Allah usnm All of these Hadith are telling you what,
don't give up on the good deeds.
		
00:11:57 --> 00:12:43
			Even more than this, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam tells us this world is for four people.
He said the first is a man whom Allah has given him knowledge, and Allah has given him wealth. So he
gives for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. He said, and it is for a second person who sees the
first man. Allah has given him knowledge but has not given him wealth. So he sees the first person
and he says if only I had the money he had, I would give just like him. He says fauna and Allah He
Seiwa they are equal in the sight of Allah subhanaw taala the generosity of your Lord subhanho wa
Taala is just having the sincere, truly sincere intention to do something good. Even if you are not
		
00:12:43 --> 00:13:03
			capable of doing that good deed, Allah will reward you as this you did that good deed. Why? Because
he is shockula Subhana wa Tada. Even the pure sincere intention to do good and Allah will reward you
as if you did the good because this is how he appreciates his servants and the good that they bring
forward.
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:50
			And look at how Allah subhanaw taala points, our, our our eyes to this reality throughout the Quran.
Allah subhanaw taala says Leo Ophea who modular home Why is he the human family that he may give
them compensate them for their good way as either home and to increase from His bounty subhanaw
taala he doesn't just compensate your good. You do something good. He says okay, I give you back
good in return equal for equal No. He gives you in return wire as either home and holiday. And he
increases for them out of His Bounty in the hole of food on Shaco He is Forgiving and he is
appreciative when they upset a fascinating news. This is Alfie HyperSnap whoever commits a good deed
		
00:13:50 --> 00:14:29
			we will increase for them what is good in the whole affair on shellcode He is Forgiving and he is
appreciative. Allah says Allah, Masha, when when are they known as eat, they will have an paradise
whatever they desire, whatever they want, that's it's no wonder they never eat and we will give them
even more than what they desire. Things that you cannot even desire. You don't even know that. Allah
subhanaw taala will give you of them. Little Athena and husana was Jada. Allah says to those who do
good, they will have good was the idea and an increase in more, even more they will have
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:59
			all of these verses are telling you you're dealing with a lord subhanaw taala he's not going to give
you back equal to what you give him. He's gonna give you far more than what you give him Subhana
water either. In the Lila room it's called as a rotten. Allah does not cause injustice, even an
Adam's wait. When Tebow has an attorney will do it for her. And if it is a good deed, he will
increase and multiply it. If you do the smallest of wrongs Allah will not punish
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:48
			issue more than what you have done, but if you do good, he will multiply your good. If you do good,
it will be multiples of good that you will see in return. Subhana wa Tada is why our Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, mentor ZocDoc, big day tomorrow, whoever gives sadaqa that is
equal to a date, just one date of soda. Milk has been fired from pure wealth, health and wealth. He
said Allah subhanaw taala will take this and he will grow it just like any of you raises a horse.
When the horse is first born, it is weak, it can barely stand, but they raise it and they feed it
and they train it until the horse is strong. He said just like you do this, Allah will raise the son
		
00:15:48 --> 00:16:10
			or that you give until you come on the day of judgment and it is like the mountain of hurt. The
person gave one date of sadaqa sincerely, from pure Halal wealth. Allah subhanaw taala will grow it
until it is like the mountain of arts. And you look throughout the Quran and the Sunnah. You see
this theme over and over again.
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:12
			Yusuf Ali Hassan,
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:29
			you gives up sacrifices, being a servant, in the home of a wealthy person, where he's living in the
luxury of his house, he gives it up for the sake of Allah, what does Allah do? Allah brings him out
of prison as a king.
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:30
			Jaffa
		
00:16:31 --> 00:16:34
			alarm goes and he fights in battle.
		
00:16:36 --> 00:17:05
			And so both of his arms are cut off and he is killed. What does our Prophet say? He says Aurora Hill
and Phil Jana Adela hula hoop is Aurora ie Jenna Haney, Minneapolis. He says I can see him in
paradise right now. Allah has replaced his two arms with two wings that are made of gems made of
rubies and gems. You'll see rueful Jana. Yeah, Kuruman somebody here we are shareable man. And
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:48
			he said the Prophet said he is flying in paradise. He is eating from its fruits and he is drinking
from his rivers. He gave up his arms for the sake of Allah. Allah replaced it with wings that are
made of jewels. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, we know the hadith of Sodom more eyes
are the Allahu Akbar of the 10 who are giving glad tidings of Jannah. This young man was going to be
the one of the leaders, if not the leader of yesterday, of the city, that would become Medina. Yeah,
he met the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam, and he accepted Islam. And he followed the prophet the
power that would have been his he gave it to the Prophet Sall Allahu Allah, he was sending him and
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:56
			followed him until he died. What did the Prophet SAW Allah where it was and I'm saying, Oh, I said
Gardena, Allah, feminine mother acre, Yamuna Jeunesse
		
00:17:57 --> 00:18:40
			Allah and he said, 70,000 of the angels came down to carry the funeral procession of Saudi Radi
Allahu Allah and He gave up something for the sake of Allah. Look at how Allah subhanaw taala
rewarded him. Look at how Allah azza wa jal took care of him. And we see this again throughout the
sea at all. We see the story of on the center of the Allah and it was kept prisoner in Mecca, torn
away from her husband. Her husband was going for Hinshaw. She was going for hedgerow with him, they
prevented her. They said if you go you can't take your child. And so they were pulling on the child
until they dislocated his arm. She saw this she started to cry and she said I'm staying in Mecca
		
00:18:40 --> 00:19:24
			with my child. But every day she wanted to go to Medina to perform the Hijra. They said she would
walk to the boundary of Mecca looking towards Medina because she wanted to go but she couldn't go.
Then finally, her family felt sympathy for her. And they told her you can go and she didn't want to
wait an extra minutes, afraid that they might change their mind. So she took whatever she had
started walking towards Medina, or smell live upon her. But the Allahu Akbar at this time is not
Muslim. He comes and he sees a woman with a child walking by themselves on the path to Medina. He
said where are you going to go to Medina? Is it by yourself walking? She said yes.
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:29
			So he said no, he was not Muslim, but he had chivalry.
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:52
			He had generosity. He said, No, you're gonna go on my camel. And he got off his camel. And she got
on and he walked and he led her all the way from Mecca to Medina. Until he got to the outskirts of
Medina. She came down. He took his camel he left and she remarked she said I know Allah will
appreciate what he did.
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:58
			And when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam conquered Mecca
		
00:19:59 --> 00:19:59
			and he
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:20
			accepted Islam, the Prophet sallallahu annual send them the people of Mecca people like Earth man
and they were afraid the prophet is going to take revenge against them and said the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Where's this man even thought, hmm? And he came forward, and the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said take this, these are the keys of the Cava. Take them.
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:57
			Lyons, Darrell Hammond, Camilla Bonner. No one will take this from you, except that they are a
tyrant. And he gave it to her Snapple the Allah who won the keys of the caravan. And until today,
the offspring of Earth man even have the keys to the camera. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
honored him for the good that he did. We see this throughout our religion, you give up something for
the sake of Allah azza wa jal, and Allah azza wa jal will always appreciate the good that we give
for the sake of Allah subhana wa rnfl pono Cody had our software they will throw in order for OSHA.
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:13
			Similar from the Los Altos cinema Rasulillah he was it he was the woman water
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:59
			throughout the Quran, Allah subhanaw taala. When he speaks about his attributes of being a shekel,
he pairs it with two other attributes. Well, can Allah who is Shaq urine Alima, Allah is
appreciative and he is Aileen that he is knowledgeable. Why does Allah pare his appreciative nature
with his knowledge? Because Subhanallah sometimes in life, we help people we help other people. We
do them a favor. We help them out here and there. And they don't thank you. They don't appreciate
it. Why? Because they don't understand what you did for them. Maybe they don't know you did it
behind their backs. Or maybe even if they do know they don't understand how you did them a good
		
00:21:59 --> 00:22:44
			favor. So they don't thank you and they don't appreciate you for it. But Allah is appreciative and
he's also Anina he's all knowing, so any good you do Allah azza wa jal knows it and he subhanaw
taala will appreciate it. The other name of Allah that He pairs with being shackled is referred
forgiving. And the scholars say Why does Allah pair these two together? In the Ramana della fall on
Shaka, indeed our LORD is forgiving, and he is appreciative. And they said this is because the
greatest form of appreciation is Allah forgiving your sins. And so if you want Allah Subhana Allah
to forgive your sins, do good deeds, Allah will appreciate it, and he will forgive our sins. Now
		
00:22:44 --> 00:23:25
			there's three other points before we conclude, number one, in order to have a relationship with a
shekel subhanho wa taala. In order to receive his appreciation, you have to give manifester and
movement competent Makoto bentonia The first Allahu anhu, competitive, incredible yelman piano
whoever removes the difficulty from a believer in this dunya Allah will remove the difficulty for
them on the Day of Judgment. Whoever makes easy something for another Muslim in this world, Allah
will make it easy for them something that in the next world, you do something Allah will give you
something even more, something even better, but you have to do something for the sake of Allah. The
		
00:23:25 --> 00:24:10
			second is to worship Allah often, if you truly believe and the depths of your hearts, that Allah is
appreciated. If you really believe this, that Allah will appreciate your good, then you will take
advantage by doing good deeds, big and small, you will not see them as being insignificant. You will
try your best to do as our Prophet sallallahu wasallam said as a farmer to Sarah will philia
honeycomb. Firstly that's Infineon. If you see the Day of Judgment happening and in your hand there
is a seed that let them plant that seed. Why because you know Allah is appreciative. You know that
Allah will reward you for that good deed. But to have that ability, you do the good deeds, and you
		
00:24:10 --> 00:24:47
			take advantage of them. And you don't be lazy because you believe that Allah azza wa jal will
appreciate the good. And the final point is to be sincere. Allah is a shareholder, he appreciates
the good, but only if it comes with sincerity. Only if we do it's only for the sake of Allah azza wa
jal. We don't do it so that people appreciate us and praise us, but only that Allah azza wa jal
appreciates us. And so if we keep these three together, we will have a relationship with Allah azza
wa jal through his name and shockula May Allah azza wa jal appreciate our good and inspire us to do
more good I mean, in the Lahoma data because it was so non and Debbie I will Adina Amazon do it
		
00:24:47 --> 00:24:48
			yourself.
