			wa sallahu Wa alaykum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:51
			Last week we went through
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:56
			a few names of Allah subhanho wa taala, already related to
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:01
			his generosity and and him giving.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:09
			And we mentioned in the beginning of Ramadan, that we will go through Names of Allah subhanho wa
Taala that are related
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			specifically to the month of Ramadan.
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			So today in sha Allah hota hai Allah we have
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:26
			names of Allah, that are related to his forgiveness
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:32
			related to him forgiving and pardoning, etc
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:39
			and so the four names that we have today
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:41
			are
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:44
			alpha for
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			alpha
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:51
			and last Laffel and the web
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:58
			of a food of afar Laffel and the web
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:07
			and so a food is a name of Allah Allah has been mentioned quite frequently in the Quran.
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			And so it has been mentioned
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:13
			approximately 90 times
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:22
			and most times, combined with Allah's name or Rahim throughout the Quran we hear another for Rahim
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:30
			and so for example loss of Hannah who Italia says he barely a knee and another photo Rafi
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:36
			inform my servants that I am Aloha food and a right
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:40
			as for a love afar
		
00:02:42 --> 00:02:48
			then this name has only been mentioned five times in the Quran. It has been made or it has been
mentioned five times in the Quran.
		
00:02:49 --> 00:02:53
			And so for example, Allah subhanahu Allah says in surah Taha
		
00:02:55 --> 00:03:15
			we're in need of 1000 Lehmann Tada we're gonna we're amulet saw the handsome Tada. We're in Need
Love afar. Indeed I am as afar for the one who repents and believes and does good deeds and then
persists upon true guidance.
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			And Allah subhanho wa Taala says in Surah Nua
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:23
			when new hallelujah Salam is
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:27
			you know, complaining to Allah about his people not believing.
		
00:03:28 --> 00:03:47
			He says for call to steal Pharaoh robber come in who can have a foul rah you know who Cana was a
pharaoh? No Hello Islam says and I said to them to my people seek forgiveness from Allah Indeed he
is of a far indeed he is of a far as for Apple.
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:52
			It has been mentioned also five times in the Quran.
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:57
			Four of these five times it is mentioned with
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:01
			four of these five times it is mentioned with awful
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:15
			it is mentioned with our food and our food and our food. So for example in Surah Nisa, Allah
subhanahu Attallah says that without you care is Allah Who are you? Yeah, for whom?
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:23
			What kind of well who I for one of our fora okay and Allah who I for one was awful Ron.
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:28
			And once it has been mentioned with Kadir
		
00:04:31 --> 00:04:42
			and so in Surah Janessa as well Allah subhanho wa Taala says in to do Hi Ron L to hoo hoo, otaku and
Xuxa in Allah Hi, Karina. I for one Khedira
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:51
			What does Khedira mean? It means the one who is most capable, the one who has ability he has
capability He has power.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:57
			So what's the wisdom behind a war combining between a rifle
		
00:04:58 --> 00:04:58
			and Kadir?
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:08
			Before we understand unlawful, unlawful can allow for one of our fora it's related to forgiveness.
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:12
			But what does forgiveness have to do with
		
00:05:13 --> 00:05:14
			capability or ability?
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:19
			The wisdom behind Allah mentioning these two names together is that
		
00:05:21 --> 00:05:28
			forgiving and pardoning is only praiseworthy when it comes from someone who has
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:38
			the ability to punish and the ability to take revenge. But he doesn't. Instead, He pardons
		
00:05:39 --> 00:05:41
			Instead, He pardons and he forgives.
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:46
			So Allah subhanho wa Taala His forgiveness comes from.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:51
			It comes from the fact that he is all capable.
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:55
			He is all capable of punishing
		
00:05:59 --> 00:06:03
			and so it's not because he forgives because he is unable.
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:15
			Some people they may forgive people because, you know, they don't have the ability to take revenge.
They're not as powerful.
		
00:06:16 --> 00:06:17
			So they say I'll forgive you.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:37
			That's not the case with Allah subhanho wa taala. And so, Allah is perfect in him forgiving, and he
is perfect in his power, his ability, and he is perfect in his forgiving while while being capable
of punishing.
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:42
			Also awful is a name that was mentioned by the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
		
00:06:44 --> 00:06:47
			In the Hadith when I showed all the Allahu Anhu asked,
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:49
			or messenger of ALLAH,
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:54
			if I happen to be
		
00:06:56 --> 00:07:00
			praying and be in the data of Allah on Laylatul Qadr
		
00:07:01 --> 00:07:06
			then what do How should I make to Allah so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:16
			there say this dua, Allahu Allah Inaka a full word to help build Alpha Phi Alpha honey, Oh Allah,
you are a fool.
		
00:07:18 --> 00:07:19
			Which means the one who pardons
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:23
			and you love partying?
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:25
			Therefore, pardon me.
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:34
			So this is a life who asked for a web to web. It has been mentioned 11 times in the Quran.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:40
			And out of these 11 times, nine times it has been mentioned with Rahim
		
00:07:42 --> 00:07:46
			nine times it has been mentioned with Rahim and once it has been mentioned with Hakeem.
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:50
			And once it has been mentioned on its own
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:54
			without being mentioned with another name.
		
00:07:55 --> 00:07:57
			Where is that to worship?
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:00
			It's a surah that all of us have memorized
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:02
			the web on its own.
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:05
			Without any other name.
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:08
			In the who cannot
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:14
			know character web Surah Nasir in Ocala to weather.
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:16
			So these are
		
00:08:18 --> 00:08:19
			these are the names
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:26
			of for afar, Alaska. And
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:37
			now what do these names what do they need? What do they need each one of them. They're all related
to forgiveness, pardoning, overlooking,
		
00:08:38 --> 00:08:40
			but each has a different meaning.
		
00:08:41 --> 00:08:48
			So as for alpha four, and alpha, they come from the same root word of Allah.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:09:01
			They come from the same root word in the Arabic language of ALLAH Farah, which means to cover in the
Arabic language will offer a means to cover
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:03
			to conceal
		
00:09:05 --> 00:09:07
			to vil to hide.
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:14
			And so there's something called a middle third, which is the helmet or the shield
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:24
			that the warrior wears on his head to protect himself. It's called middle four. Because it hides
him.
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:28
			It protects him. It covers him.
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:43
			And so in the context of Allah subhanho wa Taala food and so far means the one who covers our sins,
the one who conceals and hides our sin.
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:54
			As for the difference between the food and refer, then refer means the one who is the most forgiving
		
00:09:55 --> 00:10:00
			for food is the one who forgives. And how far is is the one who
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:06
			Who forgives the most, he is constantly forgiving. There is no one who forgives more than him
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:13
			and stole the federal law. When we say a stole federal law, it comes from the same
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:17
			from the same meaning of over food.
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:23
			And so when you say a stellar federal law, you are basically asking Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:25
			to forgive you,
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:32
			Oh Allah, I seek your forgiveness, Oh ALLAH forgive me, hide my faults,
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:38
			protect me from my faults, conceal my faults, etc.
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:43
			So, this is the meaning of before and as far as for LFO
		
00:10:44 --> 00:10:45
			it means to party.
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:58
			So while a food means forgiving, or concealing our sins LFO indicates complete removal of the sin
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:11
			LFO means complete removal of the sin and the condition in which you are in when you are sending
such that there is no consequence after that.
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:16
			completely eliminating the sin and all of its traces.
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:21
			That's the difference between food and hassle.
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:30
			So as who don't who pardons means, the one who completely erases the sin and any trace of it.
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:34
			And so this is why
		
00:11:36 --> 00:11:45
			this is why there is no more punishment after that. This is why there is no more punishment after
that, because Allah has completely removed
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:50
			completely remove the sin and any of its traces.
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:57
			And in human terms are awful. A term that is used
		
00:11:58 --> 00:11:59
			is amnesty.
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:02
			For example,
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:15
			there's a leader of a country, he says, I'm gonna offer a general amnesty for all criminals behind
bars. They're all free to go, I've forgiven them all. I've pardoned them all.
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:18
			This is the meaning of a laugh.
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:27
			As we're at the lab, it comes from the root word of tilde and tilde, which means to return
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:33
			to come back and to repent. And so
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:54
			when you make tell that when you repent to Allah, what are you doing, you're basically coming back
to Allah, you are returning. There came a time when you became negligent of Allah, and you committed
sins and you forgot about Allah. And then once you realize your mistake, you are now coming back to
Allah.
		
00:12:55 --> 00:12:57
			That's the meaning of toga.
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:00
			As in the example of Adam it his Salam.
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:09
			When he committed his sin, Allah mentions in his story, that he returned tab, he returned to Allah.
		
00:13:11 --> 00:13:17
			And so to Webb means the one who accepts the Toba of the repenting person.
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:28
			Allah being a to lab means that he is accepting their repentance their Toba but the fact that Allah
uses tel lab
		
00:13:30 --> 00:13:38
			indicates that he not only accepts the repentance, but He is constantly accepting the repentance.
		
00:13:40 --> 00:13:53
			From one individual until his death, how many times is he constantly accepting that person's
repentance? And this is just one person. So how about the 1000s of the millions of people
		
00:13:54 --> 00:14:04
			who are constantly going back to Allah and repenting from their sins? So this is why Allah refers to
himself as a to whap.
		
00:14:06 --> 00:14:10
			So what do these names of Allah teach us? First of all,
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:18
			Allah subhanahu Attallah in and of itself, in and of himself, he is described by these names
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:33
			in an oven of himself, he is on her for another far a laughable and utter web. It's because of who
he is that he forgives, and he overlooks
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:35
			not because
		
00:14:36 --> 00:14:38
			of some external
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:40
			influence,
		
00:14:41 --> 00:14:47
			like in the case of human beings, sometimes you may forgive someone and pardon him
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:52
			because of other people who are constantly insisting on you.
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:59
			Forgive him, let him go. And they're constantly on your case. And so you forgive him because of
that.
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:04
			Allah subhanho wa Taala in and of himself.
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:12
			He is the all forgiving, not because of anyone else, not because anyone is making him to,
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:16
			to forgive. And that's why
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:19
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said,
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:22
			By Allah
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:31
			by Allah, the one in whose hand my soul is, if you were not to commit sins,
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:35
			if you are a people who did not commit sins like the angels,
		
00:15:37 --> 00:15:40
			then Allah subhanho wa Taala would replace you.
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:42
			He would get rid of you
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:48
			and replace you with the people who would commit sins and then seek forgiveness from Allah.
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:54
			And then seek forgiveness from Allah and Allah would forgive them,
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:56
			showing us work
		
00:15:57 --> 00:16:05
			that Allah subhanho wa Taala He is described as one who forgives because of who he is not because
		
00:16:06 --> 00:16:12
			not because of the people, not because someone is making him to forgive. Secondly,
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:20
			the second lesson that we learned from these names, is that our shortcomings and our transgressions
against Allah subhanho wa taala.
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:25
			They necessitate that Allah punish us.
		
00:16:29 --> 00:16:33
			Our sins, deserve punishment.
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:38
			But Allah subhanho wa Taala lets us go.
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:46
			We deserve all kinds of punishments, not just punishments, but removal of blessings.
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:52
			Allah Subhan Allah to Allah created us and constantly provides for us.
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:57
			And yet we sin and we transgress and we disobey him.
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:01
			If he wants, he doesn't have to give us
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:04
			but he still gives us
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:06
			and he doesn't punish us.
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:18
			And Allah subhanho wa Taala mentions this in the Quran. Whenever you ask you, the Allahu Nasser Dena
kessa boo,
		
00:17:19 --> 00:17:22
			na Taraka, Allah wa Haley, having done that,
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:33
			if Allah were to punish people for what they have committed of sins, He will not have left a single
living creature on the face of the earth.
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:45
			Meaning that the justice of Allah means that he punished us, he doesn't let us go in this dunya
we're not talking about the Acharya. Right now we're still talking about the dunya.
		
00:17:47 --> 00:18:09
			Because of our sins, we deserve the punishment of Allah. And that's why Allah says here, if he was
to punish us for what we do, he wouldn't leave anyone on the earth. He would have destroyed us long
time ago. While I can you agree Romila agilely Musala. But he delays them. He DELETES THEM for an
appointed term.
		
00:18:11 --> 00:18:19
			He gives us chances, He's given us time. And then once that time comes that it then he will punish
us.
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:30
			And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam also says that if Allah were to punish the inhabitants
of the heavens and the earth,
		
00:18:31 --> 00:18:36
			he would do so. And he would not be unjust in doing so.
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:42
			He will not be unjust in doing so.
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:48
			Meaning that everyone there's not a single human being.
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:53
			Who doesn't deserve Allah's punishment, even the righteous
		
00:18:55 --> 00:19:05
			for what? For their shortcomings. Maybe they don't have that many sins but they are not worshipping
Allah in the manner that Allah commanded them to do so.
		
00:19:06 --> 00:19:17
			We all deserve to be punished. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, if Allah were to punish
the inhabitants of the heavens and the earth, he would do so and he would not be unjust in doing so.
		
00:19:18 --> 00:19:19
			He would be completely
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:25
			he would be completely just in doing that.
		
00:19:27 --> 00:19:31
			And if he were to have mercy on them, His mercy would be better for them than their own deeds.
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:37
			Thirdly, these names of Allah subhanho wa Taala also indicate that
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			He only forgives and pardons
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:44
			that he not only forgives and pardons, but
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:50
			he completely erases any ill effects of those sins.
		
00:19:54 --> 00:20:00
			And so contrary to human beings, who when they part in one in
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:00
			Other,
		
00:20:01 --> 00:20:05
			they may still have ill feelings within them
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:09
			the trace of that crime of that,
		
00:20:10 --> 00:20:17
			of that injustice that was done to them, even after they have pardoned even after they have
forgiven, it still remains within them.
		
00:20:19 --> 00:20:23
			Obviously, Islam teaches us not to hold such feelings,
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:27
			not to hold such grudges within us.
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:31
			But it's natural. It's part of our human nature.
		
00:20:33 --> 00:20:35
			Allah subhanho wa Taala is not like that.
		
00:20:36 --> 00:20:51
			When Allah forgives when Allah pardons, he completely obliterates and eliminates the sin and all of
its traces all of its ill effects, leaving nothing behind.
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:58
			And we can see that in the example of
		
00:21:00 --> 00:21:08
			a person who accepts Islam, what does the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wasallam say about the one who
accepts Islam, all of his previous sins are forgiven
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:12
			as if
		
00:21:13 --> 00:21:18
			he is coming out of the womb of his mother for the first time, without a single sin.
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:29
			And so we find in a hadith, in Hadith Kotze, where Allah subhanho wa Taala is speaking.
		
00:21:31 --> 00:21:32
			Allah subhanho wa Taala says,
		
00:21:34 --> 00:21:35
			Oh, son of Adam,
		
00:21:37 --> 00:21:44
			I forgive you, as long as you pray to Me, and hope for my forgiveness. Whatever sins you have
committed,
		
00:21:45 --> 00:22:17
			oh son of Adam, I do not care if your sins reached the height of the heavens, then you asked for my
forgiveness. I will certainly forgive you, Oh, son of Adam, if you come to me, with an earth load of
sins, while meeting me coming to me on the day of judgment without associating any partners with me
without committing shirk, then I will match it. I will match that Earth load of sins with an earth
load of forgiveness.
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:21
			So this is the forgiveness of Allah subhanho wa taala.
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:28
			Completely erasing the sins and getting rid of any trace of it.
		
00:22:29 --> 00:22:30
			The fourth lesson that we learn
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:32
			is
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:34
			that there is no limit
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:38
			to the forgiveness of Allah subhanahu wa.
		
00:22:39 --> 00:22:44
			There is nothing too grave too serious for Allah to not forgive.
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:57
			And so no matter how grave your sins, no matter how humongous they are, no matter how many times you
repeated the same sin
		
00:23:00 --> 00:23:03
			do not forget that Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
00:23:04 --> 00:23:07
			there is no sin that he cannot forgive.
		
00:23:08 --> 00:23:16
			And so Allah subhanho wa Taala reminds us of this when he says Kalia either the lady in a surah fu
Allah and fusi him
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:23
			all my servants who have transgressed against their own souls.
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:31
			Last takanobu Rahmatullah. Do not despair.
		
00:23:32 --> 00:23:50
			In the Mercy of Allah, do not give up hope in the Mercy of Allah. In Allah years, if you don't do
that, Jamie, indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Allah did not make any exception here. Allah forgives
all sins, in the who who will have a food or right
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:57
			except that there is one sin that ALLAH does not forgive, which sin is a
		
00:23:58 --> 00:23:59
			check.
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:02
			But even that,
		
00:24:03 --> 00:24:06
			even that is only if you die upon that.
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:16
			Meaning that Allah does forgive Sheikh while we're still alive, and we ask His forgiveness for it.
		
00:24:18 --> 00:24:19
			Otherwise,
		
00:24:21 --> 00:24:24
			no mushrik who accepts Islam would be forgiven.
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:36
			But on the day of judgment, once a person dies and he has not, he has not sought forgiveness for
schicke
		
00:24:37 --> 00:24:59
			then he will not be forgiven by then he will not be forgiven by Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah
mentions this in Surah Teresa, when he says in the Allahu Allah He was a funeral and you should rock
heavy oil if you don't I do and radically Masha Allah does not forgive associating partners with him
schicke but he forgive
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:03
			Beyond that, besides that for whomever he wills
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:20
			so what this means is in the app era, ALLAH does not forgive, committing shirk. But otherwise all
other sins Allah subhanahu Attallah will forgive, meaning that a believer and workmen, a Muslim who
comes on the Day of Judgment,
		
00:25:21 --> 00:25:25
			having not associated any partners with Allah not committed any shit.
		
00:25:26 --> 00:25:33
			If he had sins that he did not repent from, there is still the chance that Allah will forgive him.
		
00:25:34 --> 00:25:40
			There is still the chance that Allah will forgive him. He is under the will of Allah.
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:43
			As long as he died as an admin,
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:55
			and not associating any partners with Allah, we say he died as a believer, and his case rests with
Allah. We don't say that he is destined for the Hellfire for sure.
		
00:25:56 --> 00:26:23
			We say it is feared that he will end up in the Hellfire because he was a wicked person. He was a
murderer. He committed all these major sins, and He did not he did not ask Allah to forgive him. It
is feared that he will end up in hellfire. But we don't say for certain. We say his case rests with
Allah. Why? Because he did not commit ship. He did not commit ship.
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:27
			The fifth lesson that we learned from these names
		
00:26:29 --> 00:26:47
			is that not only has Allah subhanaw taala commanded us to seek his forgiveness and to repent to Him,
but it is something that he wants, and it's something that he desires, and it is something that he
loves. As indicated in the Hadith that we mentioned
		
00:26:49 --> 00:27:05
			Allahumma indica, if you want to hit Bulleh, for faster Honey, what a great dua that we should all
have memorized by now. And we should be saying this dua in these last 10 Nights, especially when we
are in sujood.
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:16
			The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says Accra now you're Kunal Abdullah Robbie Wahoo, Sajid,
the closest that the serving gets to his Lord is when he is Institute.
		
00:27:19 --> 00:27:30
			And so as we mentioned, in that hadith I showed all the Allahu anha asked the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam what to do, how should I say, if it happens to be later to Carter, and he
instructed her to say this to her?
		
00:27:31 --> 00:27:32
			Oh Allah.
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:35
			You are
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:41
			the one who partners to hit bull afro, and you love pardoning.
		
00:27:42 --> 00:27:47
			It's not just that Allah is the One who pardons and the one who forgives, but he actually loves it.
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:50
			He actually
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:57
			desires it. He wants to forgive us. He loves forgiving us,
		
00:27:58 --> 00:28:00
			for her for and neither for forgive me.
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:08
			This is also indicated in a very profound Hadith, in which the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
describes
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:14
			the joy of Allah subhanho wa Taala when one of us
		
00:28:15 --> 00:28:19
			turns to him in repentance, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said
		
00:28:20 --> 00:28:22
			that Allah is more joyful,
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:33
			at the repentance of someone when he turns to him in repentance. Then one of you if you were riding
your camel in the desert,
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:35
			in the wilderness,
		
00:28:36 --> 00:28:38
			and suddenly it runs away from you.
		
00:28:40 --> 00:28:48
			So you may have stopped for some rest for a nap. And you wake up and you find that your camo has
left.
		
00:28:50 --> 00:28:54
			And it was your only means of transportation, and now you're stuck in the desert.
		
00:28:56 --> 00:28:59
			Your camel also had all of your belongings,
		
00:29:00 --> 00:29:03
			your food, your drink, everything was with him. And now
		
00:29:05 --> 00:29:05
			you have nothing.
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:21
			And so, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, he loses all hope and getting it back. And
then he comes to a tree. And he lies down in its in its shade. And he says, I'm just going to wait
here for depth.
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:27
			When all of a sudden, out of nowhere.
		
00:29:28 --> 00:29:33
			I don't know where his his camels suddenly appears before him.
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:39
			And so out of sudden joy,
		
00:29:40 --> 00:29:48
			he says, Oh Allah, you are my servant, and I am your Rob, by mere Lord. It's a slip of the tongue.
He says it out of extreme joy.
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:59
			So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says his mistake comes from intense from intentionally.
Now the question is
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:01
			What is so special
		
00:30:02 --> 00:30:08
			about the one who repents that he earns this level of joy from Allah subhanho wa taala.
		
00:30:10 --> 00:30:11
			Basically
		
00:30:14 --> 00:30:23
			when we commit sins we commit sins because we forget about Allah subhanho wa Taala we forget about
the punishment of Allah.
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:30
			We end up in a state of love in a state of heedlessness negligence.
		
00:30:31 --> 00:30:36
			Shaitan. deludes us the dunya attracts us
		
00:30:37 --> 00:30:42
			and our knifes desires to fulfill its pleasures.
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:48
			And so in this state, we forget about Allah subhanho wa taala.
		
00:30:50 --> 00:30:54
			So once we realize our mistake,
		
00:30:55 --> 00:31:05
			and we turn to Allah in repentance, we are coming back to Allah, we are returning to Allah. So why
would he not be joyful?
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:10
			Why would Allah not be joyful? If someone is coming back to him?
		
00:31:12 --> 00:31:14
			After becoming lost?
		
00:31:16 --> 00:31:23
			After becoming lost, and forgetting about Allah and then finding your way back to Allah? Why would
Allah not be joyful?
		
00:31:25 --> 00:31:38
			And so these names of Allah, they teach us that not only does Allah forgive, but he loves to do
that. And he is joyful when one of us turns to him in repentance.
		
00:31:41 --> 00:31:51
			The sixth lesson that we learned from these names is that one should never fall into despair, and
should never give up hope. No matter how many times you sin.
		
00:31:52 --> 00:31:59
			Don't abandon don't give up seeking Allah's forgiveness. Don't say that this is a sin.
		
00:32:01 --> 00:32:02
			I am constantly committing.
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:05
			And
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:11
			every time I do it, I turn that to Allah and repentance. But what's the point?
		
00:32:13 --> 00:32:14
			And then you give up
		
00:32:16 --> 00:32:17
			and then
		
00:32:19 --> 00:32:22
			that sin overtakes you and it becomes your life habit.
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:27
			The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says, in Hadith coatsy. Again,
		
00:32:29 --> 00:32:31
			he says that Allah subhanho wa Taala says,
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:43
			a slave committed a sin. And then he said, Oh ALLAH forgive me. And Allah said, My slave committed a
sin. And then he realized that he has a rub, who forgives
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:46
			and punishes for the sin.
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:50
			So he sought my forgiveness.
		
00:32:52 --> 00:33:07
			He then he then again commits a sin. And He says, Oh Allah, forgive my sin. And Allah subhanahu
Attallah responds. In the same way, Allah says, My slave committed a sin, and then realize that he
has a Rob who forgives
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:13
			his sin and punishes for his sin. So he's taught my forgiveness.
		
00:33:14 --> 00:33:15
			And then again,
		
00:33:16 --> 00:33:22
			the slave he commits the same and he says the same thing, and Allah subhanahu Ana says the same
thing.
		
00:33:23 --> 00:33:28
			Finally, in the end, Allah subhanho wa Taala says, I have granted forgiveness to my slave.
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:44
			I have granted forgiveness to him. So let him do whatever he likes, let him do whatever he likes.
What does this mean? Let him do whatever he wants. It doesn't mean now he's free, let him indulge in
the sin, no the opposite.
		
00:33:46 --> 00:33:58
			This person is committing a sin. And He is constantly going back to Allah, as long as he is in this
state, in this continuous cycle, then let him do whatever he wants.
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:02
			As long as he is constantly coming back to me,
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:13
			as long as he is constantly coming back to me, not a justification for committing sins, no. And that
brings us to the next point,
		
00:34:14 --> 00:34:28
			that Allah subhanho wa taala, although he is the author Forgiving, the Most Merciful, it does not
mean that we should use this as justification for persisting in committing sins. And so there are
people out there
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:33
			you come to them and you tell them, you should not do this.
		
00:34:34 --> 00:34:39
			It's haram and they say Allah is the all forgiving Allah is the All Merciful.
		
00:34:40 --> 00:34:48
			And so they use these names of Allah as justification for persisting in sin. But what does Allah
subhanahu Attallah tell us in the Quran,
		
00:34:49 --> 00:34:59
			Allah has told us that he is the author giving the he is the all merciful. But on many occasions,
when Allah mentions that he follows it up
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:01
			By speaking about his punishment
		
00:35:04 --> 00:35:10
			and so for example, we mentioned the IRA. Now, are you bad the N ni Anila Fuhrer, Rafi.
		
00:35:12 --> 00:35:25
			And then what does Allah say? What Ernie will neither be who will right after that. One now Diaby,
who will addable Allah says, Hey, Daddy, I need to
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:42
			inform my servants, that I am indeed another four and Rahim. But right after that in the next area,
and inform them, that My punishment is indeed a severe punishment.
		
00:35:44 --> 00:35:48
			And so, on more than one occasion, Allah subhanahu Attallah does this why?
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:59
			As a refutation of those who will try to justify the forgiveness of Allah for their sins.
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:02
			Finally, in the last lesson,
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:04
			that we can mention,
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:13
			we should not we should do those things we should aim to do those things that enable us to be
forgiven by Allah.
		
00:36:15 --> 00:36:15
			And so,
		
00:36:17 --> 00:36:23
			obviously, we should be asking Allah for forgiveness, and especially in these in these last 10
Nights.
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:33
			But besides seeking forgiveness from Allah in dua, and in vicar Besides that, there are certain
things that we can do
		
00:36:34 --> 00:36:37
			to have our sins forgiven by Allah subhanho wa taala.
		
00:36:39 --> 00:36:41
			Such as doing good deeds.
		
00:36:43 --> 00:36:48
			And so Allah subhanho wa Taala says, in Al Hassan RT, you'd Hibben us a year.
		
00:36:50 --> 00:36:55
			The good deeds, cause evil deeds to go away.
		
00:36:56 --> 00:37:10
			Good deeds cause sins to be erased. So among the means of having our sins forgiven is to do good
deeds. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Well, to be a Seattle has an attempt to
		
00:37:12 --> 00:37:16
			follow up a scene with a good deed, it'll erase the sin.
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:20
			So for example, let's say you committed a certain sin.
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:27
			Go right after that and give sadaqa it will completely erase that sin.
		
00:37:28 --> 00:37:33
			It will completely erase that sin and its effect.
		
00:37:37 --> 00:37:37
			And so
		
00:37:39 --> 00:37:47
			doing good deeds is among the among the ways of having our sins forgiven by Allah subhanho wa taala.
Also,
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:49
			also,
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:52
			pardoning others forgiving others.
		
00:37:55 --> 00:38:01
			When you show certain good qualities, Allah subhanho wa Taala meets you with those same qualities.
		
00:38:02 --> 00:38:04
			When you forgive others, Allah forgives you.
		
00:38:05 --> 00:38:15
			When you cover the faults of others, Allah will cover your faults. When you help others Allah will
help you. This is the Sunnah of Allah subhanho wa taala.
		
00:38:16 --> 00:38:30
			This is the Sunnah of Allah. How you behave with people is how Allah will behave with you. Remember
this golden rule, how you behave with others, is how Allah subhanahu wa taala will behave with you.
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:34
			And how you treat others is how Allah will treat you.
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:41
			You treat others good and with respect Allah will treat you in the same way you treat others
		
00:38:43 --> 00:38:43
			in a bad way
		
00:38:45 --> 00:38:46
			than what you expect from Allah.
		
00:38:49 --> 00:39:02
			And so likewise on this topic of forgiveness, be forgiving to others and you will be met with
forgiveness by Allah subhanho wa Taala where do we learn this from we learn it from the story of Abu
Bakr Radi Allahu Ahad.
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:06
			In the story of the if
		
00:39:08 --> 00:39:12
			in the story of the slander of Sharabi, Allahu Allah, when
		
00:39:13 --> 00:39:17
			one of his relatives one of the relatives of Abu Bakr
		
00:39:18 --> 00:39:20
			was involved in that slander.
		
00:39:21 --> 00:39:32
			And so Abu Bakr Radi Allahu Allah, he, he made an oath he made a vow, I'm going to stop giving him
sadaqa because he was someone who used to give him sadaqa and he was one of his relatives.
		
00:39:34 --> 00:39:37
			So Allah subhanahu Italie revealed Surah to note
		
00:39:38 --> 00:39:43
			freeing Akshata the Allahu anha of what they accused her of, along with
		
00:39:45 --> 00:39:48
			an area addressing Abu Bakr Radi Allahu Ahad
		
00:39:50 --> 00:39:56
			the he should forgive he should pardon and to hit Boonah and your feet Allahu Allah Karim.
		
00:39:57 --> 00:40:00
			Allah asks, don't you want that ALLAH forgive
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:05
			You don't you want that Allah pardons you? Pardon him? Forgive him?
		
00:40:06 --> 00:40:08
			Don't you want that Allah pardons you and forgives you.
		
00:40:10 --> 00:40:17
			And so when we pardoned others and we forgive others, this is among the means of having our own sins
forgiven. Finally,
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:24
			among the ways that we can have our sins forgiven, is by choosing those times
		
00:40:25 --> 00:40:30
			to ask Allah for, for forgiveness, that are special times.
		
00:40:32 --> 00:41:10
			And so among those special times are these last 10 nights, and that Doha that I mentioned, many
times already along the in the castle when to hit will Alfa France running repeat it in your, in
your Doha in your sujood in these last 10 minutes, also, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
told us there in the last third of every night, Allah subhanho wa Taala descends and asks, Is anyone
out there who is making dua to me so that I could give him Is there anyone out there who is seeking
my forgiveness, so that I may forgive him?
		
00:41:12 --> 00:41:20
			So the last third of every night, and this is in general, in Ramadan and outside of the month of
Ramadan, it's a time
		
00:41:22 --> 00:41:33
			when it's an opportunity to have our sins forgiven, to ask Allah subhanho wa Taala for our needs of
whoa, this about this dunya and akhira
		
00:41:34 --> 00:41:35
			there is no
		
00:41:36 --> 00:41:52
			better time to be making dua and to be asking Allah subhanahu Attallah then this time, the last
third of the night, and also part of the last third of the night is a part of the night known as a
Sahara.
		
00:41:54 --> 00:41:56
			A Sahara is that our before Fajr.
		
00:41:58 --> 00:42:08
			And the loss of Hannah who had to Allah praises those who seek his mother Pharaoh His forgiveness at
that time.
		
00:42:09 --> 00:42:11
			Well, Bill as Harry whom yesterday if you rule
		
00:42:13 --> 00:42:22
			at the time of Sahar, they are seeking forgiveness from Allah. So if you want to know when is the
best time to say I still fear Allah.
		
00:42:23 --> 00:42:34
			It is before Fajr and this is something that each and every single one of us we could easily be
doing, especially nowadays in Ramadan. When we are already up at that time,
		
00:42:35 --> 00:42:38
