			wa sallam or Shara Lumo remark data to her well coup d'etat in VEDA what couldn't be the agenda
Allah Allah will call it a lot in for now. Brothers and Sisters in Islam today are hotbar is about
an F Dakar in Allah meaning being impoverished in front of Allah subhanaw taala impoverished meaning
deprived of strength meaning being broken in front of Allah subhanaw taala showing Allah azza wa jal
that you're in need of Him, not coming up in front of Allah azza wa jal arrogant or showing that
you're not in need or that you're self sufficient, but I am in need of you yet Allah I am deprived
of strength without you. Being impoverished in front of Allah azza wa jal and showing an IF to power
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:43
			and showing the need for Allah azza wa jal, this is one of the shortcuts to getting close to Allah
azza wa jal, and it's one of the ways for your DUA to be answered. And it's from the characteristics
of the prophets and the righteous and it is the source of strength of the believer. As much as you
are weak with Allah you will be strong and as much as you show strength to Allah, you will be weak.
And we have a lot of evidence for this from the Quran.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:04:28
			Tharun who is a very wealthy man from amongst the people of Musashi salaam Kala in namah, OTT who an
ailment and he said all this wealth I got through my own knowledge, not through the help of Allah,
He didn't give any credit to Allah subhanaw taala through my own intelligence and knowledge, again,
this wealth, the rest of the story, he loses all of that a bliss, Allah subhanaw taala tells him to
bow down and to prostrate to them, he says unavailable, Minho. halacha 20 Min Noreen Wahaca Holman
clean, I am better than him. And then what is the result of that story? A bliss is the worst of the
creation. If you're asked what is the worst thing of the creation, you would think immediately a
		
00:04:28 --> 00:05:00
			bliss for own. He said Alisa Lee mill commissural. Do I not have the kingdom over Egypt and all
these rivers that are running beneath my feet? And what's the end of that? He ends up drowning in
the middle of the sea. Bill case, her advisors, Paul Luna, Honolulu, what in Hulu, but since Chedid,
and we are these mentioned how much power they have. They believe they were powerful, but they were
nowhere near as powerful as the army or the king that they were
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			We're discussing meaning the kingdom of Sulaiman.
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:50
			So we see people attributing power and strength to themselves, they claim that they're powerful. And
the reality is they're weak or they lost that power. So when are the believers strong?
Interestingly, look at better versus her name in the Quran, one of Agnes or Kamala, who will be
bedridden, we're unto Adela and Allah gave you victory at better when you were a villa you were a
few you are the minority you are the ones in the lesser position. But look at her name. The Muslim
numbers were so huge at Haneda was the largest Muslim army ever assembled up in that point, we OMA
when aining is Agia but come Kathrada cathro to come for them. Togni uncom che and on the day of
		
00:05:50 --> 00:06:09
			honey, when you were fond and pleased and proud of your numbers, and it didn't avail you, it did not
benefit you. Well, though, what are they coming out tomorrow but through more later motivating, and
so this wide expanse of Earth, constricted around you and you run away at the end of it.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:59
			We're seeing this contrast so the first lesson show weakness in front of Allah subhanaw taala show
dependence on Allah azza wa jal and express to Allah azza wa jal, even though he knows well express
that you are very much in need of his assistance and in need of his help and his sustenance. And
when you do that, and Allah will make you strong, successful and victorious. Second lesson is,
whatever good you have whatever blessing and capability or capacity that you already have. Always be
conscious that Allah subhanaw taala is the reason you have it. That Allah subhanaw taala is the
reason behind it. Go into any situation with humility. Don't go into any situation overconfident or
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:17
			arrogant or thinking it's because of your achievement. Always remember Allah subhanaw taala has link
in the situation. So don't walk in thinking I am wise you walk in Yeah, Allah give me wisdom. Don't
go in thinking I'm eloquent. And I'm a good speaker. You walk in saying, Yeah, Allah make my tongue
eloquent.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:59
			Doctor walks in to a surgery. Yeah, Allah allow me to be successful in the surgery. Don't be proud
of your children and your achievements. Remember Allah subhanaw taala decreed that they were not
born with defects that Allah put them on that specific path. Same thing when you see your house or
your bank account, Allah subhanaw taala chose the path for me that led me to this place where I am
today. He could have decreed me to be poor, he could have decreed someone else in my place. lineage,
don't be proud of it. Allah subhanaw taala chose it for you. You didn't exist, you had no part in
choosing it. Skills looks, the scholars say never be proud of something that you had no part in
		
00:07:59 --> 00:08:43
			gaining. And this is from foolishness. To be proud of something that you didn't have any part in
gaining. And if someone is boasting that they're tall, or someone is boasting that they're handsome
by did you perform any exercise in the womb to ensure you come out tall or to ensure you come out
handsome it is nothing but genetics and Allah decreed that for you. So how can you boast about
something you had no hand in gaining whatsoever? This is not something you boast over. Third lesson.
Even when you're capable of doing something, remember that you're still in need of Allah azza wa
jal. Allah subhanaw taala reminds us this in the Quran. Yeah, you Hannah's untrammeled for Corrado
		
00:08:43 --> 00:09:10
			it Allah will Allah who who will wanna you will Hamid oh people you are the ones who are in need of
Allah you are the ones who are impoverished before Allah and Allah is the One who is self
sufficient, the one who is worthy of praise. And we see a lot of examples of this. The righteous the
prophets, they're capable of doing something. They don't just go ahead and do it. They make dua to
Allah, they, for lack of a better term involve Allah azza wa jal in the process.

idols involving Allah subhanaw taala in the process.
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:59
			And from the dua of the Prophet sallallahu Sallam from the morning Edgar that we mentioned, we ask
Allah subhanaw taala
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:18
			And in the end of this dua specifically, what are the kidney ADA NFC, total Fatah ICT and don't let
me depend on myself. Don't leave me to my own abilities and vices Don't leave me to my own, even for
the blink of an eye. This is every morning in the morning of Qatar.
		
00:10:20 --> 00:10:50
			And so we don't act brave with Allah subhanaw taala Ahmed Abdul Aziz, he was the Khalifa. And when
the wind would blow, he would become fearful thinking that the destruction is going to come down
upon him, always linking everything and making dua to Allah subhanaw taala never feeling that
they're self sufficient, never feeling that they're not in need of Allah azza wa jal Akula Cody ha

00:11:06 --> 00:11:51
			hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala Rasulillah Hill, I mean, why the early he was so
happy you marry Brothers and Sisters in Islam, the more humbled and the more impoverished you are
with Allah the closer you become to Allah azza wa jal, we see this in surah. Allah Allah, Allah
subhanaw taala says at the end of it can learn, learn to clear who was good, what Qatari. So Allah
was really saying, do not obey those who are trying to take you away from Allah azza wa jal was
good. Go make sujood prostrate, and draw nearer when you prostrate to Allah azza wa jal you are
nearest to Allah subhanaw taala. and contemplate why you are closest to Allah azza wa jal when
		
00:11:51 --> 00:12:35
			you're in your suit. First of all, you're putting the most honored part of your body, which is your
face, flat into the ground where people step and sit, and so on. And this is the part that you spend
the most time looking at people spend the most spending the most to make this part of their body
look good. And now you're putting it to the ground where people step with their feet out of
humiliation and submission to your Lord. And you're at this lowest point and while you're at the
lowest point, you're praising Allah, who is the most high at the highest point? That's why in
sujood, you say, Subhan, Allah, Allah, Allah the Most High and you're acknowledging and realizing
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:45
			that and you reminded that you're in the low position and Allah subhanaw taala is in the one who is
in the high position, and Allah azza wa jal is always highest.
		
00:12:47 --> 00:13:39
			The danger is when we are comfortable and we think all as well and we forget that being broken in
front of Allah azza wa jal. This is an essential part of our relationship with Allah azza wa jal,
not only broken and in need of Allah and there's a calamity but all the time even when everything is
ok we are still just as in need of Allah azza wa jal as different as during the time of calamity. So
in dua, as well the more broken you and impoverished you are the closer you are to getting an
answer. About 450 years ago, a man by the name of admonitory bin Saeed Rahim Allah, the Khalifa
asked him to go out and lead the st. Scott prayer. So meaning the prayer for rain, and before he
		
00:13:39 --> 00:14:23
			left he sent his servant boy, he said go and convince the guards to let you into the Khalifa. And go
and listen and see what state the Khalifa is in. So this man and mother and Mother Robin said Rahim
Allah, he is asked to go and make the dua for rain. He wants to get an idea if the dog is going to
be answered or not. And he understands that dua being answered is linked to how much you humble
yourself in front of Allah azza wa jal so at the end of the day, the Khalifa is the one in charge,
if He is arrogant and he's not humbled is not impoverished, knowing that there is not going to be
answered. So it was the boy to go and listen and see what state the Khalifa is in. So the boy goes
		
00:14:23 --> 00:15:00
			and he hears the Khalifa saying, hola Houma LA to add the Hancock be Marcia de khalifa to him, Oh
Allah, do not punish your creation, because of the sins of their Khalifa. So he found the khalifa to
be broken. And he came back and he said this to a man that had been married, who told us the Boy

00:15:00 --> 00:15:47
			If the Jabara of the Earth, meaning the Khalifa, if he is humbled and impoverished, then the Jabbar
of the heavens will have Rama, to conclude our hotbar. With that, I was asked to remind that in this
month of Ramadan, we are, first of all, always thankful and always satisfied with how much the
community gives back to its Masjid every month of Ramadan. And this year, we're going to require
people to give a stronger push than before, there are a lot of things to be done. And shahadah is
going to be going over all the details throughout the month of Ramadan, whether it be improvements,
construction, new projects, even not only that, but as some of you know very well, that there are a
		
00:15:47 --> 00:16:23
			lot of other organizations that rely on us even relief organizations, each of them have an allotted
amount that they get. So even these other organizations, many of them are expecting much from us. So
this month in sha Allah, everyone's going to push themselves a little harder and may Allah subhanaw
taala, accept and reward you guys. With that. We ask Allah subhanaw taala to make us of those who
recognize the truth as clear truth and follow the best of it and to make us of those who recognize
falsehood as clear falsehood and abstain from it. Allahumma convertable cultiva are in Alba Tila
