00:01:04 --> 00:01:06
			I felt was and how we
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:11
			My dear brothers and sisters last week,
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:13
			we spoke about
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:21
			the importance of the second pillar of Islam or Salah
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:28
			its importance, its significance, and some of its benefits.
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			However, many among us,
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:37
			who consider themselves
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:41
			to be regular at their salah,
		
00:01:43 --> 00:01:46
			praying their five daily Salawat
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			on time
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:53
			many
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:56
			they lack
		
00:01:57 --> 00:01:59
			an integral part of the Salah.
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:07
			The very spirit of the Salah, the very heart of Salah
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:14
			and because of that, they find that they don't achieve that benefit of the Salah.
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:20
			And that essence that spirit that heart of Salah
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:24
			is none other than unusual.
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			Uh huh sure
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:34
			is to humble yourself before Allah subhana wa Tada
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:44
			to free your heart of everything besides Allah subhana wa Tada when you're standing before him
		
00:02:46 --> 00:02:55
			to feel the presence of Allah subhana who were to Allah in your heart, to focus on your Salah, to
concentrate, not to become distracted,
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:04
			to know what you're doing in your Salah to know what you're seeing. All this is the essence of
Salah.
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:11
			And so it exists in the heart, but then it appears outwardly as well.
		
00:03:14 --> 00:03:16
			And so this whole show is something
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:22
			that is difficult for almost every single one of us.
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:25
			But we vary.
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:33
			We vary in the degree of a lack of wushu in our Salah for some
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:40
			when we enter the salon until we leave the salon
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:44
			we haven't paid attention to anything.
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:52
			We have zero for sure in our salon. But for others it's on off it's in between
		
00:03:54 --> 00:03:56
			and no one no one is safe
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:05
			from a lack of Kosher in our salah, but we vary in degrees and that's why Omar Abdullah,
		
00:04:06 --> 00:04:08
			for whom original photography Allah was
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:12
			being who he was.
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:16
			Even he says that in my salah.
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:20
			I will be preparing an entire army
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			in another narration it says
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:36
			the overall the Allah one he would say that in my salah. I will be calculating the jizya that is
coming from behind
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:55
			and so no one is saved from having a completely perfect Salah with complete perfect for sure. But we
vary in degrees. And so some of us don't care and we continue being heedless, and continue with our
thoughts.
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:58
			But others
		
00:04:59 --> 00:04:59
			which
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			mental struggle
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:06
			and we fight those thoughts and we try our best to concentrate.
		
00:05:08 --> 00:05:24
			And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam explaining the various degrees of people in their salah.
He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says in no Roger Lyon sorry Fleming Salah T one Ikuti Bella who Illa
shrew ha?
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:33
			What is Ruha whoo hoo ha was Suguru ha was sudo su ha homeless who had what I was talking to her
when
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:37
			he says some people they would observe their soul
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:43
			but in terms of the Agile that they get from it,
		
00:05:45 --> 00:06:01
			some only get a 10th of it. Others only a ninth others only an eighth others only seven others only
a six others only a fifth of fourth or third and some only a half of the measure of Salah.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:06
			And so praying is one thing, praying or five daily Salawat
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:21
			making sure you don't miss any of them. Making sure that you pray on time. That's one thing that
saves you from the punishment of those who will be punished due to their abandoning of Salah.
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:26
			But the reward gained from each Salah
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:34
			that is not something that everyone achieves Ibaka you Ibrahim Rahim Allah he says
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:38
			explaining this point he says
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:41
			that Salah without Huzoor
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:46
			Salah without the sugar and mental presence
		
00:06:48 --> 00:06:50
			is like a body without a soul.
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:57
			Isn't it shameful for a person to gift another human being like himself
		
00:06:58 --> 00:06:59
			a dead slave.
		
00:07:00 --> 00:07:11
			In the past, a slave was a very precious commodity. And if you wanted to gift a king or someone
special with something, you would gift them with a sleeve.
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:15
			How does it feel to gift someone but that's
		
00:07:16 --> 00:07:17
			and so that is how
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:26
			that is how your Salah is with a Cushaw you're gifting to Allah subhana wa Tada something dead.
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:34
			Abraham says in another place, every person must stand before Allah subhana wa Tada twice.
		
00:07:35 --> 00:07:39
			Each and every single one of us must stand before Allah twice.
		
00:07:40 --> 00:08:00
			The first if he stands in his Salah when he stands before him in this dunya and the second, when he
stands before Allah, on the day of judgment. He says, Whoever stands before Allah in this dunya in
his Salah, the way he should,
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:05
			then the second standing on the Day of Judgment will be easy for him.
		
00:08:06 --> 00:08:12
			But if he doesn't stand in this dunya in his Salah, the way he should,
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:24
			then the second standing, the standing on the Day of Judgment will be made difficult for him. Why?
Because as the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:33
			the very first thing that we will be brought to account on the day of judgment before Allah is none
other than our salah.
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:53
			Whoever perfected it, then everything that comes after will be made easy for him. But whoever was
heedless and neglectful of his salah, then the rest of the questioning by Allah will be made
difficult for him to answer. And so why is it that many of us we lack in our social
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:56
			The reason is very simple
		
00:08:57 --> 00:09:02
			because of a lack of Eman and a lack of your team
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:06
			a lack of Eman and a lack of your team
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:10
			or lots of China who have data describing the people of Eman
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:18
			with several different characteristics. Allah subhanho wa Taala says, If law has been
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:39
			successful indeed are the people of Eman the believers the mean Who are they? And then all our lists
several characteristics of who they are starting with and let you know whom few so that you can call
she rule those who endures Allah. They have who Sure.
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:46
			So this shows us that those who don't have for sure and there's a lot they're lacking in their Eman
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:49
			and ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada
		
00:09:51 --> 00:09:54
			he says, What's the you disobey? Allah?
		
00:09:55 --> 00:09:59
			We're in the rotten Illa Allah hace la
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:07
			In that Salah is burdensome it's difficult for who?
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:14
			For everyone except those who have for sure. Who are those who have for sure
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:17
			and let you know whom
		
00:10:19 --> 00:10:27
			fix for naughty him hace room. Allah subhana wa Tada says Illa Allah hace en el Medina.
		
00:10:28 --> 00:10:45
			Medina Johan Munna hula de him? What an easy Raji rule? Who are the people of for sure, they are
those who know, with certainty with the opinion that they will meet a walk meaning on the day of
judgment.
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:50
			And so a lack of Eman and a lack of your team is why
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:59
			we lack in our role, because if you certainly surely, with conviction from the bottom of your heart
knew
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:02
			who you are standing before
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:07
			you wouldn't allow yourself to wander off in your soul.
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:10
			Which is why the setup
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:16
			were completely different to us. In terms of their crucial and their salon.
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:21
			We have so many stories of how they would stand in their salon.
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:41
			until they've been Zubair rubeola who they say that he would be standing as if he was a tree
standing in the forest not moving. When he would go down into sujood. The birds would come onto his
back, thinking that he was a wall that they're standing on.
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:45
			One of the set of
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:49
			Muslim mdsr He was praying in the masjid.
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:54
			And an entire side of the masjid fell.
		
00:11:56 --> 00:12:00
			The people in the market they rushed in commotion, what has happened
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:03
			while he found him still in his salon
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:06
			unchanged in his continuous condition.
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:13
			And we even find examples of this today.
		
00:12:15 --> 00:12:18
			There was this clip that was circulating on social media
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:24
			of a man who was praying with his son who may have been eight years old, next to him
		
00:12:26 --> 00:12:27
			on the sidewalk,
		
00:12:28 --> 00:12:32
			and suddenly, a canine dog came barking at him,
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:39
			stood right next to them barking at them. The sudden he was frightened and wanting to get up.
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:42
			And the father was holding him down.
		
00:12:44 --> 00:12:51
			He held him down. He continued his salah, he was in his final Tisha hood. The dog was barking,
		
00:12:52 --> 00:12:57
			but he was continuing in his salon. When finally the dog calmed down
		
00:12:58 --> 00:13:07
			and sat down next to them and finally laid down. What does it show us? It showed us that you're
clean of this man this father
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:18
			showed us his Eman and his your cane in the one who he was standing before. If that was one of us,
what would we do?
		
00:13:19 --> 00:13:34
			We would run off. Why? Because of a lack of our iman. He knew that the one who he was standing
before was the same one who had control of the stock and who could bring it under control.
		
00:13:35 --> 00:13:38
			That is the salah of the people of crucial

00:15:05 --> 00:15:06
			My dear brothers and sisters
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:10
			having crucial are in our Salah
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:15
			is an integral part of perfecting our Salah.
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:20
			So if we want to truly benefit from our Salah
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:25
			if we want to gain that benefit from it
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:30
			which we spoke about last week
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:39
			of how this Allah we are the ones who benefit Allah subhanho wa Taala does it benefit anything from
our ADA and our salah
		
00:15:41 --> 00:15:43
			the benefit is gained by us.
		
00:15:45 --> 00:15:59
			So if you truly want to gain that benefit from our salah, then we have to have for sure in it, why
is it that most of us, we don't benefit from our salah, not gaining that peace, that serenity that
tranquility in our lives.
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:06
			Not having this Allah to prevent us from an fascia and sins.
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:15
			Not feeling that connection with Allah subhana wa Tada. The reason for it is because of our lack of
crucial.
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:23
			So there are many things that we can do to help us to gain this crucial in our salah.
		
00:16:24 --> 00:16:26
			Among these things is first and foremost,
		
00:16:28 --> 00:16:32
			showing importance to this pillar of Islam
		
00:16:33 --> 00:16:39
			showing importance to it, like the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam would show importance to it.
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:53
			And so when that event will be called, and he would be among his family or among his companions, he
would leave whatever he was doing, and he would rush to the salah.
		
00:16:54 --> 00:17:07
			Most of us, we don't care when the exam goes, we say we'll pray later, until the end time. Some of
us the end time comes and we find ourselves we pray after the time has already finished.
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:17
			Among the things that will help us to gain crucial in our Salah is by realizing the reality of who
were standing before.
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:25
			We're not standing before anyone. We're not standing before any creative being.
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:39
			We're not standing before any notable person in this world, not before a president not before a
king, but rather before the King of all kings, the creator of the universe.
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:46
			In every model, the Allah who he wants saw his sleeve nephila.
		
00:17:48 --> 00:17:51
			He took off his turban and he was praying.
		
00:17:53 --> 00:17:54
			And so he said to him, Jana
		
00:17:57 --> 00:18:00
			How would you stand if you were to stand before the assault on
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:02
			the Khalifa.
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:14
			He said I would put all my best clothes, I would wrap my turban nicely, and then stand in His
presence. So it'd be normal said to him
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:23
			that you should stand in an even better manner. When you stand before Allah subhanahu wa Tada.
		
00:18:25 --> 00:18:26
			Among other things that will help us
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:37
			to gain our control or in our Salah is by making sure that nothing in our surroundings will distract
us.
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:45
			Many times we pray in a place where things are distracting us, either objects
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:54
			or designs or noise. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam once he prayed in a garment that had
a design on it.
		
00:18:56 --> 00:18:57
			So after his Salah
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:05
			he took it off and he threw it away. He said it hurts me honey Salah It distracted me from my salah.
		
00:19:07 --> 00:19:14
			Among the things that will help us to gain crucial in our Salah is to pray, as if
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:18
			you see Allah subhanahu wa taala before you
		
00:19:19 --> 00:19:27
			and that is the very definition of sun and Telugu the Wahaca Ana Katara
		
00:19:28 --> 00:19:33
			to worship Allah as if you can see him for inlanta Contura for in New York
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:57
			to pray to Allah as if you can see him. But then realize that although you cannot see Him, then
surely he is watching you. He is seeing you your every movement, your every your every statement
that you see in your salon to the point where your every thought in your heart
		
00:19:58 --> 00:20:00
			is heard by all
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:00
			So
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:11
			among the things that will help us to gain who are in our Salah is by focusing on the meanings of
what we are seeing,
		
00:20:12 --> 00:20:44
			from the moment, we say Allahu Akbar, ponder over that. What are you seeing? You'll see saying Allah
is the Greatest. What does that mean? It means that Allah is far greater than everything else in
this dunya. So if thoughts come to your mind, remind yourself that Allah subhanahu wa, is far
greater than my worries, ALLAH SubhanA what data is far greater than these thoughts?
		
00:20:46 --> 00:21:30
			Among the things that will help us to gain crucial in our Salah is by focusing on the meanings when
we see a rule to bIllahi min ash shaytani regime, what does it mean? We are seeking refuge in Allah
from shaitan. Among the things that she thought does, is that he comes to us in our salah. And so
think you are asking Allah to pretend to from the whisperings of shaitan when you receive too little
fat you have ponder over the fact that you are conversing with Allah subhanho wa Taala every single
statement that you make in spiritual Fatiha, Allah responds to you as a Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam informed us when you go down into the cool
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:40
			imagine the greatness of Allah, the one you are bowing before when you get up and see some yeah
Allah holy man Hamidah.
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:49
			Allah here is the one who praises him. Remember, Allah is Hearing your every word, when you go down
to sujood.
		
00:21:50 --> 00:22:05
			Ponder over the fact that you are lowering yourself and you have not lowered yourself to such a low
state, except because of the greatness of the one who you are lowering yourself before.
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:23
			The only way we can achieve that is if we ponder over the meanings, even if we don't understand the
Arabic language. Read the meanings, memorize them, so that they are present in our minds when we
pray.
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:35
			Among the things that will help us to gain crucial in our Salah is by not rushing through it, not
rushing through our salah, which unfortunately many of us do, especially our young ones.
		
00:22:38 --> 00:22:47
			And so we should move through the steps of our Salah in a gradual manner. The Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam once asked his companions
		
00:22:48 --> 00:22:51
			What do you consider to be theft?
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:53
			And so they said,
		
00:22:54 --> 00:22:56
			for someone to steal from his brother,
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:00
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said no.
		
00:23:01 --> 00:23:15
			That is not the meaning of theft, but rather, the meaning of theft is to steal from your salon. They
ask them How can a person steal from his salon? He sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, law you Tim
marucho
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:24
			What has to do? What are for sure? He does not perfect. He's a little cooler nor has to dude. No,
he's for sure.
		
00:23:26 --> 00:23:46
			Among the things that will help us to gain who in our Salah is by seeking refuge in Allah from
shaitan every single time that Sheikh shaitan comes and whispers to us distracting us. Among the
things that will help us to gain crucial in our Salah is to pray,
		
00:23:48 --> 00:23:59
			to pray, as if we will never prix ever again. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said either
come to either Kentucky Salah attic for solidly Salah tell me what
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:11
			he said to one of his companions, when you stand up to pray before Allah pray the prayer of the one
who is bidding farewell from this dunya
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:16
			How would you observe your salon
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:21
			How would you observe your salon
		
00:24:23 --> 00:24:24
			if you knew
		
00:24:26 --> 00:24:34
			that right after you see your salon and complete your salon, the Angel of Death is waiting to take
away your soul.
		
00:24:36 --> 00:24:39
			And so this is why the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:45
			to pray as if we will never pray again.
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:57
			It is among the greatest means that will help us to perfect our salah. If this is the state in which
we want to meet Allah subhanahu wa taala and depart from this dunya
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:17
			One of the ways that we can help ourselves to perfect our Salah and to gain crucial are in it is by
developing the habit, developing the habit of seeing our car after Salah and praying the Sunnah and
robotic.
		
00:25:18 --> 00:25:20
			All these things they help us
		
00:25:22 --> 00:25:37
			to perfect the shortcomings that we had in our salah. And finally, among the greatest means, that
will help us to gain crucial in our Salah is by turning to Allah subhanahu Bucha Hana and seeking
His help,
		
00:25:39 --> 00:25:42
			there is nothing possible in this dunya whether it be
		
00:25:44 --> 00:26:01
			our goals in the dunya or what we seek to achieve in our a bad except through the help of Allah
subhanahu wa taala This is why one of the Dewar's weren't as caught up and say right after Salah is
what Allah whom I had added rica or shook rica
		
00:26:02 --> 00:26:12
			that IC O Allah helped me helped me to be grateful to you helped me to remember you and helped me to
perfect my iba of you.
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:22
			We ask Allah Subhana Allah who were to Hannah, to make us from among those who have for sure in our
salah. We ask Allah subhanahu wa Tada
		
00:26:23 --> 00:26:38
			to help us to have for sure in our Salah to such an extent that our Salah will be the delight of our
eyes to such an extent that after we finish our Salah we will be longing to pre our next Hola.
		
00:26:39 --> 00:27:17
