The speakers discuss two examples of "monster's" use to describe a reality that is "will" and "will", including Hannah's loss and a woman upsetly expressing her "monster's". They stress the importance of understanding the effect of the "monster's" on people's satisfaction and enjoyment, including temporary damsteoths and real damsteoths. The speakers also touch on the royal family's impact on people's living situations and the choice between a mansion or modest home.

00:00:57 --> 00:00:58
			Hello
		
00:01:04 --> 00:01:05
			my dear brothers and sisters,
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:09
			we are currently in the time of the year
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			when we see a change
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:16
			in the environment around us
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			and so we see the leaves change in color
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			and we see them after they have changed color
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:34
			that they start to fall and become scattered
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			and blown by the winds.
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:40
			My dear brothers and sisters,
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			we see this every single year.
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49
			But how many of us have stopped to think and reflect
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:51
			and ponder
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:54
			over this phenomenon
		
00:01:56 --> 00:02:03
			something that Allah subhanho wa Taala has brought our attention to in Oberon not just in one place,
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:06
			but in two different
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:14
			Allah subhanho wa Taala uses this phenomenon to describe a reality
		
00:02:15 --> 00:02:17
			a reality that we all do.
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:22
			And so in the first example of loss of Hannah what
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:27
			he says well the regular who method and hierarchy
		
00:02:30 --> 00:02:30
			can
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:32
			mean a similar effect
		
00:02:36 --> 00:02:38
			at present to them
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:39
			a parable
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:46
			of water that we send from the sky
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:54
			rain that comes down and then it mingles it mixes with the vegetation in the earth.
		
00:02:59 --> 00:02:59
			And so
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:04
			this rain it produces fruit it produces vegetation.
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:08
			It brings the dead land to life.
		
00:03:11 --> 00:03:13
			It brings greenery
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:17
			and beauty to our I use
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:21
			karma and then Amina summer
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:31
			and then what happens after that for her she mentored through her Yeah.
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:35
			It isn't forever
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:38
			but rather
		
00:03:40 --> 00:03:42
			it turns dry
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:53
			and then it becomes scattered to the ruler Yeah, blown away by the wings makanda logo
		
00:03:55 --> 00:03:58
			and a lot is powerful, able to do everything
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:00
			and it
		
00:04:02 --> 00:04:03
			says, Yeah, I love
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:08
			to do like, what was he?
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:10
			What?
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:12
			What
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:14
			you will
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:17
			know
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:21
			that the life of this world is nothing but
		
00:04:22 --> 00:04:23
			play
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			amusement, entertainment,
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:29
			beauty, adornment, luxury,
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:32
			boosting with one another
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:38
			and competing with one another for wealth and children.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:43
			And then Allah gives us the example cometa Lee awaiting
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:47
			some
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:51
			further our houmous for raw retana
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:54
			It is like
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			this rain that comes down from the sky
		
00:05:01 --> 00:05:08
			causing the plants to grow, causing the farmer to become filled with delay at what he sees.
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:17
			Then
		
00:05:18 --> 00:05:20
			it turns dry wizard
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:24
			becoming yellow
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:28
			and then becoming scattered debris
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:30
			will fill
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:34
			my funeral to meanwhile you will feel as guilty as
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:37
			well no zero to me no law.
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:46
			In the US euro is either severe punishment or forgiveness
		
00:05:47 --> 00:05:52
			and satisfaction from a law. Well then how to do it?
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:53
			for
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:57
			the enjoyment of this dunya is nothing but
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			a deceptive enjoyment.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:13
			What do we learn from these two examples that loss of Hannah who represents these two parables? What
we learn are two descriptions of this of this dunya that we live in.
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:18
			The first is that it is temporary, it is short.
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:30
			Just like this greenery, this vegetation, it has its season. But then it finishes.
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:37
			And just like these leaves that we see today, scattered on the ground,
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:40
			we too one day
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:48
			will become scattered debris, but not above the earth, but rather scattered booms beneath.
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:55
			The second description and reality of the dounia is
		
00:06:56 --> 00:06:57
			that it is deceptive.
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:02
			Its enjoyment is deceptive.
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:10
			It's not a real enjoyment. And that's why the people are the dunia who chase after the dunya they're
never satisfied.
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:17
			Today they have what they aim for of the dunya they attained their pleasure.
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:26
			But they want more they turn to something else. And this is how they continue until the D
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:35
			until the D they have to visit their greens and Hakuna takato Hector's or Tamil Nadu
		
00:07:36 --> 00:07:44
			this piling up of the dunya Allah tells us this piling up of the dunya it has deceived us
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:45
			until when?
		
00:07:47 --> 00:07:48
			Till we visit.

00:08:58 --> 00:08:59
			Mario brothers sisters
		
00:09:02 --> 00:09:07
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam one day was walking through the markets of Medina.
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:12
			And he noticed
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:16
			a small skinny Lamb
		
00:09:19 --> 00:09:21
			that was dead and lying on the ground.
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:24
			So if you went to it,
		
00:09:25 --> 00:09:29
			and held it by its ear, and asked the companions
		
00:09:30 --> 00:09:32
			who among you wants this for a deal?
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:36
			So they said yes to the law.
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:42
			None of us would want it. Even if we were to be giving it free.
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:49
			What would we do with something like this? When if it was alive, it would be worthless because it's
skinny.
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:52
			So how about now that is dead?
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:56
			So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		
00:09:58 --> 00:09:59
			He said well, why
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:04
			Let's do one more Allah He,
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:09
			he said,
		
00:10:11 --> 00:10:11
			the dunya
		
00:10:13 --> 00:10:21
			is worthless in the sight of Allah, then this skinny dead lamb is to you in your eyes.
		
00:10:24 --> 00:10:25
			But who will realize that
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:33
			who will realize how worthless the dunya is that we day in day out after
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37
			they will realize it those
		
00:10:40 --> 00:10:41
			who give thought
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:51
			to think ponder over these examples that Allah gives, and that his messenger sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam gives us
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:58
			it is the who will truly understand how worthless this duty is.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:02
			Those who understand how worthless it is.
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:07
			They will treat it as a prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam treated it
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:11
			when he was presented their duty
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:20
			and they said Yasuda law, take this cushion. We see that you lie on the ground, you sleep on the
ground on this hard met.
		
00:11:21 --> 00:11:23
			They said take this cushion, the profits and
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:27
			I even this dude.
		
00:11:29 --> 00:11:33
			Like a man who travels and he comes across a tree
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:41
			and he stops to take rest in exchange for an hour. And then he moves on.
		
00:11:43 --> 00:11:52
			Those who understand how worthless this dunya is, they will treat it as the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam commanded us couldn't fit dunia.
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:59
			Be in this dunya as if you are a traveler.
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:07
			You only take of this dunya what you need. You don't hoard it, you don't chase after it.
		
00:12:08 --> 00:12:09
			piling it up.
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:17
			Those who understand how it works. This is jr is they treat it as their temporary home
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:20
			not as their permanent home.
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:31
			Think about it. If you are given the choice between either living in a mansion for a week,
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:36
			or living in a simple mind his tone
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:41
			for the rest of your life, what would you choose?
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:48
			If you were wise, you would obviously choose to live in a modest home.
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:56
			But the foolish ones, they are the ones who will say no. Let me live in that mansion for just one
week.
		
00:13:00 --> 00:13:02
			If you are given a choice between
		
00:13:05 --> 00:13:07
			traveling on a donkey
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:09
			that will take you
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:12
			to a palace
		
00:13:13 --> 00:13:14
			to garden,
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:16
			two rivers.
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:21
			And you are told that this will be your home forever.
		
00:13:24 --> 00:13:26
			If you are given a choice between that
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:38
			and writing in a luxurious car that will take you to a tent in the desert. What will you choose?
That my dear brothers and sisters is the reality
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:44
			is the reality of the difference between an agenda and
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:47
			we read the Koran
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:51
			but seldom do we ponder over its verses.
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:59
			Look at how Allah compares the people of Jin na and the people of the hellfire.
		
00:14:01 --> 00:14:06
			Throughout the power and the people of Jenna are those who abandoned
		
00:14:08 --> 00:14:13
			they are those who they don't hear was taken away from them
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:15
			because they prefer the
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:21
			horrible the people of the Hellfire they are those who enjoyed it.
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:25
			who enjoy the dunya and everything
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:27
			to offer.
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:35
			My dear brothers and sisters, when the Roma rhodiola when he saw the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:38
			in the state that he was
		
00:14:40 --> 00:14:45
			lying on the ground on a simple map. He wept. He cried.
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:51
			So the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam asked him Yeah, Why do you cry?
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:53
			He said
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			I see
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:05
			The Emperor of Persia
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:07
			and the emperor of Rome,
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:11
			are living into luxuries that they're living in.
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:14
			And then I see you,
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:19
			who are far more valuable in the sight of a lot and then
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:22
			and this is why.
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:28
			And so Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said, Oh,
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:30
			yeah humara
		
00:15:32 --> 00:15:35
			a total LA, a total la takuna.
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:41
			We
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:46
			are not satisfied that for them is a duty
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:48
			for us is
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:54
			that my dear brothers and sisters,
		
00:15:56 --> 00:15:59
			is the reality of those who understand
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:02
			the reality of this dunya
		
00:16:03 --> 00:16:06
			which was inherent compared
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:08
			to what we see today.
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:20
			As we see the leaves, turning color, turning red, yellow and then Brown, and then falling to the
ground,
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:30
			becoming scattered and blown away by the winds. My dear brothers and sisters, this is a reality of
the journey
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:40
			that everyone is chasing after soon it is coming to an end. And when it comes to an end, it will be
too late.
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:44
			Or we'll all that we will be taking with us
		
00:16:45 --> 00:16:47
			to our Greaves on that day.
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:58
			The only thing that we will be taking with us is our demons. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
says, You have to eat.
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:05
			Only three things follow the dead person to his grave, and who wanna know who
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:13
			his family, his wealth, and his deep biology isn't any
		
00:17:15 --> 00:17:18
			two of these three, returned back to the
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:22
			only one remains with him in his grave.
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:24
			Yo.
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:26
			While
		
00:17:28 --> 00:17:33
			his wealth and his children returned to the dunya
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:46
			and his deeds rooming with him which millionaire on the face of this earth, had his fortunes follow
with him and become buried with him in his grave?
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:56
			Which King had everything that he had to follow with him to follow Him and remain with him in his
grave?
		
00:17:58 --> 00:18:03
			Today he is in his grave, just like the poorest person on the face of this earth.
		
00:18:05 --> 00:18:07
			And that my dear brothers and sisters,
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:10
