Smilla Rahmanir Rahim
salatu salam ala Rahmatullah Mina V. Now have you been Ahmed inside Allahu Allahu Allah, Allah He was talking he was selling Muhammad Ali, a fairly Freeman Shadi ravine. Alfa Romeo comes into our own anamorphically
Tisa, Tasha Michelle September and finally with terra firma Sharon new asked you to their Santa Fe haven't Kitab Mobarak reality Sol Hain as our Allah subhanho wa Taala numedica phenol humanitaire lemma one Yaga Phil Elena has a lot work for a little while if you are father Jetta houfy allele. So today I believe we are supposed to be dealing with a new chapter chapter which is
it's the verbal biannual Calamy
we're done with that.
One while the one is decided
by will allow electricity niche after that we'll be dealing with a wealth. Love is
admonition reminding others about what Allah subhanaw taala says
sending that which benefits to others, advising others to do the right thing. So basically, this is while you were advising others to do the right thing, whether you do it in public, or you do it in secret or you go and talk to the people individually. In whatever form you are doing it as long as you are advising people to do the right thing. This is what is called alworth
While it is hard to vie and also be moderating the wealth been moderating in the world. Yeah because human beings it is part of our nature to get bored of something that is repeated many times.
Something that is repeated many times that's why Quran is amazing.
Different tastes different approach. Because Quran the more you repeat it the more you enjoy
reading it and the more you enjoy wanting to hear it from others
Yeah, that's why email shelter me says whatever dad who he has dad if he he takes a moolah
repeating the Quran, many times it is making the Quran more beautiful in the heart of the audience and the reader also us as well.
Other than that, you just have to do this one. I mean this, that which is narrated to us from the companions that are sort of lines that Allahu La Silla Macaulay to Hawala, whom Bill Murray.
If you have it everyday, people will get bored, you must have a break.
To keep them interested in meeting you once again.
They have it today, they have tomorrow after tomorrow, the same thing, you know. And that's why sometimes
people when they come to the masjid, the first thing they do on Friday is to look for the for the wall, so that they can lean because they know they're going to sleep.
Why is that because the whole team is going to give them the same thing that has been
I mean, recited maybe 2030 years ago.
The same thing in some places, it is the culture, you just have to read the same thing which may be great, great grandparents that have been read. Every Friday, when you come with the same thing you're going to this
and sometimes also we address people in different language the way they don't understand.
I went to a place
this place Islam is new in that place. There was some sad minority, very minority actually.
And those who speaks Arabic language, they're very, very few.
But they insist that the hotspot completely has to be done in that.
So what kind of benefits people are going to be generating from that? Nothing.
And throughout the week, you don't have people coming to your classes. If you do have classes.
Then Friday is the only time that Allah subhanaw taala is bringing everyone to you.
Everyone comes on Friday, you know So hello, even those who then pray sometimes they have they come from Friday to pray. So that's a very unique opportunity. Allah subhanaw taala has given the country
so that he can address the heart of the people to make sure that he keeps them.
There Iman intact
You Allah Allah says to the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam al Kalam Kolon believer, those who are the companions are weidel masajid, regular attendants Masjid goers, companions of the Prophet sallallahu sallam. If you want to see that best example of going to the masjid and not missing the prayer, read about the companions of the Prophet of Allah Allah Himself the lifeless old says
a witness a moment originally you heard there Boehner Raju lane, a person will be carried by two brothers to man
to bring him to the masjid in order you know, he cannot even raise off his his feet. It will be making line with the feet you know that kind of thing. Right? People are helping a person holding his hand but he cannot raise up his leg. So the legs will be dragging on the earth. Why? Because he doesn't want to pray at home is sick but he will be begging people please I want the mustard, mustard mustard.
These are companions of the prophets. Allah said
they don't want to miss a single prayer in the masjid And subhanAllah those best generation that the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam are praised for also like that. They mentioned about saving in the sleeve.
You know to have I think 20 years or 25 is the man said he never listened to the oven for a single prayer for a period of 20 something years when he was out of the Masjid.
20 is continuously the other man is always meeting him in the masjid.
20 years continuously we're not talking about missing the prayer in the oven he doesn't miss is in the masjid when they are bankruptcy.
You Allah, that's why they succeed. And we fail. Because our job is more important than coming closer to Allah subhanaw taala in our prayers, it can miss the prayer you can miss the pray, they can miss the prayer as long as we have something that we call important, not knowing that the most important thing is that which Allah subhanaw taala created you for whatever you're doing, you can sacrifice those five minutes 10 minutes to score, pray, come back to the to your thing and continue finish. You got the sight of Allah subhanaw taala and he will put baraka and whatever you do it
you know they mentioned
that is for those of you who speak Arabic I don't know whether this book is translated into English language
written by Sheikh Abdullah Abdul Razak, but the son of Sheikh
Abdul Majeed, one of the great scholars in this time of ours
he wrote a simple book about Tel Aviv Salah Tao himself respected respecting the play in the prayer very interesting book small but small law you will see a lot of things that will motivate you even like as the agenda to be
most key when it comes to praying in the massage and and having for sure, and valuing the prayer.
You mentioned in some of the righteous scholars, the meta, whatever they are doing, if they then start making the event, they put it down. One of them they saw Him He raised up is to cut woods and sell them you know, so he raised up the axe.
He's going to hit a man of Advent says Allah, it put it down.
Okay, just hit and then
he says no. Is this last time? Keep it aside. He will, you might find it so so silly. Also, you know, insignificant, wala hate is very significant. Because if a person does this with Allah subhanaw taala when the bigger things comes, you will see him being more serious.
It seems so simple. But you have to train yourself to understand that Allah subhanaw taala created you for wisdom and for an objective and that objective must be fulfilled by you before you go back to him.
So you must train yourself that these few amounts of times that Allah subhanaw taala took from you you know there are very few you must train yourself that these are the most valuable time you have in this dunya
you Allah they're the most valuable time you have in this dunya
trust me my Deborah says is the most valuable time you have in the dunya is when you're with Allah subhanaw taala Allah it luck, there is no time whatsoever that you are
so valuable than this time.
And therefore, you should understand that whatever you do it, you should say to yourself the priority is with a buyer that when the time arrives, And subhanAllah Arambula Lemina No wonder the nature of human beings, you know, it will not take from you a lot.
Otherwise most of us will not do.
Allah did not take a lot. How long do you spend when you pray? Prayer? Five minutes, 10 minutes?
Maximum it's seven to 10 minutes. And these are the best ones.
Otherwise, in some places we are talking about less than five minutes there they were done.
Allah did not take a lot.
So, why can't you be consistent in the way the priest says the predecessors were? So back to the topic, the Prophet sallahu alayhi wa sallam, although the Companions they are regular attendance to the masjid and wherever Celeste Allah Allah cinema is they try to go and catch up whatever they can get from him. But still Rasul Allah, He said, Allahu Allahu cinema doesn't give them continuous Moria, though.
Yeah, so if this is the adage of Muhammad Sallallahu sallam,
we should take this and apply it with our people more.
Because they are more distracted. How many people have the time? No, they have they have the time. But how many people have the courage?
You know, to sit down and listen to a lecture that extended to 30 minutes.
You know, nowadays, people will tell you people don't have time to listen to lectures and beneficial things, when they exceed it to three minutes.
Yeah, and this way, you can see the kind of life we're living in nowadays. Everyone is busy, busy with what
it does the question that we have to ask ourselves busy with what.
And you cannot sacrifice in one hour in your life, on a weekly basis, to listen to something that is beneficial to your life. Everything has to be just two, three minutes, and then you will listen if you if it goes to more than that you didn't have time for that.
And add to that things also have to be funny for you to listen. If a person is not saying something that is funny, you have no interest.
And Muslim should know that when it comes to religious matters. We're not talking about jokes here. There is no joke in religious matters. Because allah sallallahu sallam, he will see this whenever he talks about those religious matters.
But to have public Dunia lectures, make jokes and let people laugh is okay. When it comes to religious matters, if you have too much jokes in it, trust me, people will end up getting your jokes, but not getting any benefit from your lecture.
They will always remember the jokes you're making. And they'll come to you because of those jokes.
Because the lecture is so funny, you're gonna mention something that will make them live, laugh, they, they are getting relief. Because of that, not because of the lessons they derive from the lectures.
We have to be very careful, we don't have time to waste in this life.
When you tell yourself you don't have time Wallahi be honest. Is it really true that you don't have time? I believe 100% is not
you have time for Allah.
But we want to give that time for Allah subhanaw taala because the compensation in this dunya is not being seen by us.
But we do have time. And actually the time is supposed to be dedicated to Allah first before the dunya
but Allah is the most merciful, He knows our nature. So he did not ask you to give all of the time.
He asked you to give a little, very little out of 24 hours in that under daily basis, Allah do not take more than what more than 30 minutes actually. One calculate the time you spend when you pray, then less than 30 minutes.
The rest Allah just ask you just be honest here. So I'll be kind to everyone to this in the right way does it
to make sure that you enjoy life.
You Allah to make sure that you enjoy life. Because if you don't follow the system, you're going to pay the price in in the future. So what I'm trying to say is, we should look at the attitude of our people nowadays, you know, and they do this message of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Don't make your lectures continuous continuous means every single day you have an every single day
An hour you bring people back, they will get bored.
They will, they will get bored. And this is against their wisdom. Allah subhanaw taala says Oduro lsap lira bakeable Hickey Manuel Moy but it has
Allah subhanaw taala asked the Prophet salallahu Alaihe salam to invite people to the path of Allah subhanho wa Taala Bill hikma with wisdom.
Well know that it hasn't
had Hekima the wisdom was a means, while the Rashi theme had his say, putting things in their proper place,
putting things in their proper places. This is wisdom. Wisdom means to put everything in its proper place.
Whenever you hear hikma visible it means
That's why Allah subhanaw taala if you're looking for wisdom, that which is with the last minute is the reused. Whatever Allah subhanaw taala does is full of wisdom.
And there is an objective behind it. Everything whether we know it with anoint, doesn't matter but Allah doesn't play
because to do something without having any wisdom behind it. This is plain
and Allah doesn't do this. That's why according to the appeal of Allah sunnah will Gemma contrary to the Morteza Allah, that Allah whatever he does, there is a wisdom behind it.
There is wisdom behind they don't agree with this.
And Alison, I told them this is playing Allah never did anything without wisdom, we might not know it, but it is there. We might not know it, but it is it is there. So Allah says Oduro Illa sebelah bakeable Hekmati while more either till ha has it invites people to Allah subhanho wa Taala using what wisdom
the methodology endow should be based on wisdom
in my dear brothers, sisters will lie this is necessary. You should be very smart when you invite people.
There is always a way to convey the truth. I always mentioned this, but unfortunately, our Shabaab sometimes they are so enthusiastic.
You know, let them let me just say I don't care, you know, they like it. They don't like it. I don't care, you know.
That is a story that I always caught. But that is no harm. If we repeat it again, one of our scholars of Hadith, he died recently. Allah subhanaw taala and your hammer who he was saying that he was teaching in a classroom and one of the young boys in the classroom he said, Chef, but
these old people in the society when we tell them to do something, you know, he threw away they said, we know how to do it even before your grandfather is born.
Is it that was that was shaped our selling chef means an old man I was telling him to do. Carla Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam, he is me.
So a chef said
I asked the class who's writing
instead, of course, our friend is right, because he says ColorZilla Salah Salem.
And then the Sheikh said to me, he is wrong. He said how come he's wrong? He said our salon his long he said no, I'm not talking about colors hula
I'm talking about the method he is approaching that person with condoms. Hula is always hard.
You know, there are people who will reject you. If you say Paul or Sula, but oxy mobila. That person. If he hears you saying that there is a Hadith that is the you know those people sometimes they don't even agree that there is the Hadith. They believe that whatsoever it is said that Rasul Allah sama has said it shouldn't be correct. They don't care about whether it is authentic or not authentic, and they will never agree with you to say that this is weak.
But then you will begin to ask, but how come I told him yesterday Carla rasool Allah He rejected he was the one who was telling me that everything that is said to be said by Rasulullah sallallahu my should be true, but now how come he is rejecting this? And the first question is how should question my method first, only when I convey it in a nice way and he rejected it then I will start to blame him as you start to blame my method first. How did I fail in convincing him that this is the Sunnah of Rasulullah Salah so
I like the question the shake us. He said, Let me ask you something he was asking the boy said if you want to marry the daughter of this, this old man that chase you away
How do you approach
it said I will be very humble you know
I
got him, his friend who has supported him. They said, keep them busy, his Lionshare is like he will never be, he would never go himself, he will choose from the family members, the smartest one to go, because he's afraid of making it in the wrong way and then lose the girl
and then checks it or when it comes to your dunya you know how to look for it. Or when it comes to the dean, you don't? Can you just go and throw it anyhow, whether they accept they don't accept He don't care.
He will lie. This is who we are. He hasn't a second funny example. He says if you apply in a university,
you know, I like this example. He said, if you're applying in a university,
and you have to go through the rector, you have to apply through the rector of that university. And it's happened that director of that university is caffeine.
This is not Muslim, non Muslim University, right, you're applying right? They told you is part of our conditions that you have to write an application letter addressing directly.
What do you say in the first part of the lecture? The letter, dear,
do you say dear calpheon?
I would like to join a university although your comfort but it's okay. You know,
do you do that? No, you don't. You said Dear sir,
and you respect and you do everything possible to make sure that you are accepted.
So why when it comes to your dunya we always know how to look for it. For when it comes to the ACA with uncap Allah who we have to hear Allah Smarty now, Adela, because you have so many people in our communities, wherever you go. Oxy mobila. The vast majority of the things you think they are so simple, and ABC in Islam, they don't know. And they are just looking for somebody who has simple heart that is approachable, that can approach them with wisdom, they will listen.
Not the person that will want blame and fight No, understand that these people, if they don't do the correct thing, they might be going to *.
By getting them back to the truck, you are saving them. So you should be no more patient than them.
Yeah, they might reject you, they might think that you come to say this and that you know, just be patient. You will love choose your word correctly. And approach people my experience in Dawa, you know, led me to conclude that most of the people have good,
they have good they just need somebody who is patient. They just need somebody who is patient, and somebody who knows how to talk. And somebody who understand how to address and when to how to address matters and when to approach people
that are inappropriate moments that when you go 99% You will be rejected. What is the wisdom
in this matter? Don't go at this moment, wait for us.
There are some moments when you talk you will not be hurt. And there are moments which had the best time for you to talk. And people will listen and they will understand.
But unfortunately, we don't utilize this properly. So Allah says Oduro LSBU Rebecca Bill Hekmati. Well, Moriarty has mentioned that Imam Muhammad and yeah had been my Allah, Allah, this famous story that we're told by our scholars of Hadith, said Mr. Muhammad, have been married. One day, they realize that there is an old man there who doesn't know how to pray. You know, life is just the same, you know, people, people, they just have different features, but the same mentality from the past 1000 years ago, the same thing, if you read history properly, a technical you read enough, so the same mentality is repeated.
So they also don't know how to approach Him because they are afraid of talking to him, he will tell them, I know how to pray more than your grandfather had been praying for ages. This is what has been repeated. I know how to pray before your mother or your father is born, you know?
So they decided to teach him but in their own way, what did they do? They told themselves we got him he might not accept. So let us just let us just pretend that we don't know how to pray and we have in a heavy argument and go to him for for solution.
So they go to him. Mama told them and he says, Uncle, please help us here because I'm telling my friend that he doesn't know how to how to make Google and he's telling me I don't know how to make
and I don't agree with his he doesn't agree with mine. So Alhamdulillah we saw you then we said Oh, Uncle uncle is that let's go to him. He knows how to make although better than us. Probably you know he can guide us
the man
And most likely started to have doubts so he told one of them maybe could do let's see
if Mohammed made will prophesy according to the Sunnah
and then he told
me, it said you also make oboe, he also made it perfectly according to the Sunnah. Subhanallah they mentioned that that old man said to them immediately right after seeing them, he smiled. It says both of you are better than me, they can all do.
So how they send him the message, you know, in a very simple way, what do you need from people to see them being guided? What do you need from them to see them following a pseudo lie? Somebody said
sometimes he goes to the people, okay, people don't want to see they want to hear anything from Abdirahman sorry of drama. Yeah, I go to them, but I know what he's saying is the absolute truth.
What is the wisdom? I go and tell them to call up the ramen? Before I finish the statement, maybe two thirds of them left the majority.
What do I do? I will take the statement I will keep my side I will tell you a Brahma we meet after afterwards Inshallah, I will apologize but your name will not be inside there. I will just tell them the statement and keep right.
Allah here I believe if all of us will take this message, train yourself. Always try to get something from Rasul Allah just see cholera. So as long as you know that the prophets Allah sama said it as to digital Rasul Allah, you don't need to mention any other scholars in between. Why do you need to put somebody in between if you show that rustlers, Allah Somoza who said it and the community most of them the vast majority, if not all of them, they will accept it if they know that Rasul Allah is Allah Azza is the one who said it.
But if I come to you, and then I tell you, Imam Malik is wrong.
Because of a surah Allah He said, Allahu Allah Himself has said this and that
I might be truthful and correct in my statement that that statement of Imam Malik is wrong because it contradict this hadith of the Prophet Salah Salem. But you know, the audience, the moment I mentioned, Imam Malik, they will start having issues with me. Why do you need to put him in the picture at the first place? Actually the statement to Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam and that's it people will take it and apply it and the case close
Subhanallah we like to collide with people and that's what creates problems. So wisdom is necessary in in the Dawa May Allah subhanaw taala grant is good and Tofig and be with us wherever we are inshallah we'll continue to interpret this is the next class Allah subhanaw taala grant is good and to fit in the Zuni and Africa in the hood ecology meaning cathedra Subhana Allah Mohammed Allah land as the full cover to Lake syllabary
Allah
thank you
thank you for clarifying
what is going on.
Our
Long, long sort of
didn't get any question
here's a question from my brother, Salam Alikum. Chef. Last week you we answered a question regarding crying while praying. It's a sunnah to cry while reading the surah. But what if we can't understand? Because we don't know Arabic? If we cry because we're thinking of do our just because we're sad in general, and we are seeking help. Is it Stillson?
Smilla Rahmanir Rahim salatu salam ala Rahmatullah al Amin and a V in our Habib, Mohammed in South Allahu Allahu Allah al salam, my God.
Somebody is asking about crying
during the prayer is okay to cry.
Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam I cried when he was spraying at night reading the scene of Allah subhanaw taala into a visible home for him no matter
what interfere longer in the countenance is key.
He read this ayah he's taught this ayah and he cried lot.
Crying when reciting the Quran in general also is a sunnah of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam because of the lesson to the effect. So that should be the basis of the crime when somebody cries, it shouldn't be a reason, understanding or the feeling of in meeting Allah subhanaw taala on the Day of Judgment, there has to be something not just forcing himself to cry when he doesn't know why is he crying?
It doesn't make that much of sense is better for him to focus on what he is reading rather than spending time crime and he doesn't know what is the source of cry cry. Why is he crying?
I get it but if he's crying because of the feeling that he has, well, he's praying about his mouth Mala huzzah Giuliana piano, that will be okay, isn't it even if he doesn't know the meaning of what he what he is reading? Allah grant is good.
Second question is from a brother, a certain molecule Misha, regarding the tabby there was always present intimacy before the other. Is this better than praying sooner head home?
No, I'm just addressing the matter of
coming to the masjid on time, not missing its ability.
The sooner it when it comes to the sooner praise is to pray them at home. The watch about to pray them in in the masjid. But both Okay. Islamically if a person knows that, they can pray at home he's going to lose the first line. It's better for him to come to the masjid and pray in the masjid the Sunnah and get the first line rather than praying at home and losing the first line and tech bulletin around because he delayed coming to the masjid
yet but still praying at home. In general, the Sunnah prayers is better than praying them in in the midst of a less if you don't have you will not have a chance to get the first line. Then I will advise the person to come to the masjid and pray in in the masjid. The Sunnah prayers as well and get the first line shall
have the law may Allah grant you good and Tofik the dunya and after the privilege of meeting caffeine Subhanak Allah humbly, humbly mashallah interested to go to the lake Assalamu alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh
Is
