			lagoon way overfilled lagoon lugar con woman up Hi, la hora Sula, who
		
00:01:30 --> 00:01:30
			died.
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			My dear brothers and sisters.
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:38
			We as an oma.
		
00:01:41 --> 00:01:44
			Today, our problem is not
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:49
			that we don't know the solution to our problems.
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:53
			But rather, we have full knowledge
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:58
			of the solution to all of our problems.
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:10
			But rather, our issue is not identifying the solution, but rather implementing it.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:14
			And so our example
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:23
			is like that of a sick person. He goes to the doctor, and the doctor prescribes the medicine.
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:26
			And he explains him how to use it.
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:32
			He tells him this is your daily dosage. He gives him the message, he gives him the medicine.
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:44
			And he takes it home. And he even reads the instructions given the medicine, providing every detail
that he needs to know about this medicine and its usage.
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:55
			But then, when he takes the medicine, he doesn't bother implementing what he learned from the doctor
and from the instructions.
		
00:02:57 --> 00:03:02
			And so he doesn't care about how he uses it. He misses his dosage.
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:06
			He takes it however he wants
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:14
			and he doesn't bother implementing what he needs to implement.
		
00:03:15 --> 00:03:31
			And so my dear brothers and sisters, likewise, is the seat of our oma today. We all know that the
solution to all of our problems is in returning back to the book of Allah subhana wa Tada.
		
00:03:32 --> 00:03:35
			Returning back to the book of Allah subhana wa Tada.
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:41
			But the question is, how many of us
		
00:03:43 --> 00:03:44
			how many of us
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:47
			have made the Quran
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:51
			a central part of our lives today?
		
00:03:53 --> 00:04:13
			Not only reciting it, not only reading it, but pondering over understanding what Allah subhanho wa
Taala has said in it. And then above all, acting by it, implementing it in our lives. And so my dear
brothers and sisters AS Roma Yvonne came to an end
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:19
			there were those of us who actually
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22
			took our time
		
00:04:24 --> 00:04:26
			to reading the Quran in the month of Ramadan.
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:37
			Those of us who did so once Ramadan came to an end, we took that mustache and we took dapper and and
put it back on the shelf.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:40
			And for many of us,
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			we will return back to it
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:51
			until the next Ramadan. This is if we opened the Quran in the month of Ramadan.
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			Otherwise the vast majority of Muslims Today,
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			many of them they don't even bother opening the door.
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			I'm in the month of Ramadan.
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:03
			And so today we live
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:15
			in unprecedented times where the oma has never been so far from the Quran, as it is today. And this
is something
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:23
			that the enemies of Islam, they recognized. They recognized a very long time ago.
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:28
			And so when they colonize many Muslim lands
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:34
			and they tried their utmost best
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:39
			to revert Muslims from their deem
		
00:05:41 --> 00:05:43
			through physical force they were unable to
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:52
			and they recognized that the only way that we can make Muslims to leave their Deen
		
00:05:53 --> 00:06:08
			is by detaching them from this book from the Quran from the book of Allah subhanho wa Taala. And so
my dear brothers and sisters, we have some serious reality checking to do, how many?
		
00:06:09 --> 00:06:12
			How much time have we given
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:14
			to the Quran?
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:18
			Not only reading it not only reciting it.
		
00:06:19 --> 00:06:27
			How many of us have revolved Looker and have revolved our lives around the book of Allah subhanahu
Adana.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:30
			Many of us we complain
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:41
			that Arabic is not our mother tongue. But how many of us have made an effort
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:45
			have made a determined effort
		
00:06:46 --> 00:06:51
			to try to read the Quran to learn how to read it.
		
00:06:52 --> 00:07:10
			When the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us about the reward for those who struggle with
the recitation of the Quran, who was he talking about? He wasn't talking about those whose mother
tongue is not Arabic. And yet, they don't bother
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:41
			to try to learn how to recite the Quran. He was talking about those whether their mother tongue is
Arabic or not those who made an effort, who put their time and their effort into reciting the Quran.
And so he sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said that the one who recites the Quran, while struggling with
it, meaning they put the effort into it, and then they make their mistakes, they will have a double
reward.
		
00:07:44 --> 00:07:49
			But the question is how many of us have even bothered to put that effort into it?
		
00:07:52 --> 00:07:56
			In the month of Ramadan, many of us we finished the entire prayer.
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:03
			And then once Ramadan is over, we struggle.
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:06
			We struggle with the Quran.
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:10
			It will Kodama rahima he says
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:19
			it is mcru. He says it is disliked to delay finishing your recitation of the Quran
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:22
			beyond 40 days.
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:26
			And then Ian reputed to be
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:43
			he commented on this statement, and he says 40 days is for the week and the busy meaning even 40
days is nothing you should be finishing your recitation of the Quran in less than that much time.
		
00:08:46 --> 00:08:48
			But forget about even 40 days.
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:51
			Many of us struggle
		
00:08:53 --> 00:08:56
			to finish the Quran in even a year.
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:02
			And so my dear brothers and sisters, today we witnessed
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:05
			a neglect of the Quran.
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:14
			A neglect of it, abandoning it, turning away from it. like never before
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:17
			reciting the Quran
		
00:09:18 --> 00:09:32
			has been replaced with our phones and social media. We spend hours upon hours going through the
various messages the posts
		
00:09:35 --> 00:09:38
			but we can even spend a single hour with the hora
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:50
			listening to the Quran has been replaced by listening to music to dub or reflecting over the Quran
has been replaced
		
00:09:52 --> 00:09:59
			with video games, putting our energy and our intellect into that instead of putting it into
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:03
			Trying to reflect over the meanings of the hora
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:08
			instead of the Quran.
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:28
			Instead of the Quran being a complete way of life, where we implement it in our lives, making it a
central part of our lives, we have left operand to be for certain occasions on the death of an
individual
		
00:10:29 --> 00:10:36
			reciting the Quran at that time, and then giving its reward to the dead without realizing
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:55
			that it is the living who are more in need of that reward. Yes, we who are alive today are more in
need of the Quran than those who have gone on the Quran. It revives the hearts
		
00:10:56 --> 00:11:05
			as a prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, in a meta lemma ethany Allahu be he mean alhuda him?
Can I tell you why he didn't also
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:14
			that this guidance and this knowledge that Allah has sent me when this Quran is like
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:16
			it is like
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:27
			rain that is set from the sky and hits the ground. What does it do to the ground, the dead Earth, it
brings it back to life.
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:28
			And so
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:39
			it revives the hearts it gives life to the hearts and just like it gives life to the hearts.
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:42
			It also gives us the light
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:51
			by which we are guided in this life. And so if you find your life to be dark,
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:55
			if you find your life to be dark,
		
00:11:56 --> 00:12:41
			then it is because you have turned away from the source of light. And that is a book of Allah
subhanahu wa tada for Allah subhanho wa Taala described it throughout the Quran as being light. What
ends in LA come from Medina that we reveal to you a clear light. And Allah subhanho wa Taala tells
us about those who turn away from his remembering the Quran. Woman out although I'm victory for
inilah he in Allahumma, Isha tanganga, one shoe Yeoman Tiana Tiana, those who turn away from my
remembrance the Koran, then for them is a wretched, a depressive life
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:46
			and they will be reserved on the Day of Judgment.
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:50
			They will be raised up on the Day of Judgment
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:52
			being blind
		
00:12:53 --> 00:13:10
			barakallahu li walakum feel for him. One of our annual er can be male or female, it will declare

			What tequila in the law house or the room the matter on the room.
		
00:14:13 --> 00:14:15
			My dear brothers and sisters
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:20
			1400 years ago when the Quran was revealed
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:24
			to our Prophet salallahu alayhi wasallam.
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:26
			And he took it
		
00:14:27 --> 00:14:32
			and he recited it to his people. And he preached it and he taught it to them.
		
00:14:35 --> 00:14:41
			The vast majority of them did not only reject it did not only disbelieve in it
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:45
			but they turned away from it.
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:56
			Running away from it, bolting fleeing whenever it was mentioned as Allah subhana wa tada tells us in
the
		
00:14:58 --> 00:14:59
			from Allah humanity. Thank you
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:01
			altimari when
		
00:15:02 --> 00:15:06
			What is wrong with them turning away from the remembering the foreign
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:13
			car and home showroom Mustang feel for rottman qaswarah
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:16
			like
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:20
			wild donkeys,
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:28
			prays that bulls that flee that run away, when,
		
00:15:29 --> 00:15:37
			when they hear when they sense a predator when they sent a hunter, ready to attack them.
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:42
			That's what this is how they treated.
		
00:15:44 --> 00:15:45
			And this is why
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:48
			they would advise one another,
		
00:15:49 --> 00:15:51
			to stay away from this brand
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:58
			to block their ears, when a newcomer would come to Macau, they would warn them
		
00:16:00 --> 00:16:06
			they would warn them from this Quran. Why? Because they knew of the impact that the Quran had
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:14
			on the hearts as long as there was nothing preventing the hearts
		
00:16:16 --> 00:16:18
			from hearing this message,
		
00:16:19 --> 00:16:35
			from stubbornness from the Hawa of the neffs, from the warnings of these kuffar and these enemies of
Islam, as long as as a pure clean heart comes and listens to that message of the Quran, it will
accept it right away.
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:37
			And so they recognize that
		
00:16:39 --> 00:16:40
			and this is what made them
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:44
			to flee from this.
		
00:16:46 --> 00:16:47
			And this is why
		
00:16:48 --> 00:16:53
			the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam finally had enough of it
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:57
			and meet his complaint to Allah subhana wa Tada.
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:03
			And whenever a prophet or a messenger complains to Allah,
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:22
			about anything, then it is a grave matter. It is a serious thing, the prophets and the messengers of
the past, when they complain to Allah Subhana Allah subhana wa tada about something about their
people, a loss of Hannah who had to hide or would hasten the punishment.
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:26
			And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam complained,
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:29
			walk on Rasool E.
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:37
			What on earth was Julio rugby in komeito, who had a locker room
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40
			and the messenger he said,
		
00:17:41 --> 00:18:04
			he, oh, my Lord, the messenger, he refers to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, my people,
they have taken this as an as neglect. They have neglected it, they have abandoned it. They have not
only disbelieved in it, but they're turning away from it. They don't even want to hear it.
		
00:18:07 --> 00:18:08
			And so although
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:12
			this area was revealed, describing
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:32
			the Prophet salallahu ad he was sending them and his complaint about his people crush. It is an idea
that can be applied to every single person who comes after the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
until the day of judgment,
		
00:18:33 --> 00:18:40
			who abandons the Quran? neglects the Quran doesn't have any place for the Quran in his life.
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:43
			Ignore him.
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:46
			Rahim Allah he says.
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:50
			He says that 100 of the
		
00:18:51 --> 00:19:12
			neglect of the Quran abandoning the Quran is of various types. The first is to abandon listening to
it, abandon believing in it like right, like the kuffaar of Mecca, who did not want to even listen
to it and did not believe in
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:16
			set. Secondly, he says neglecting,
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:19
			abandoning acting by
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:32
			not stopping at its halaal any term, even if a person says he believes in it, and he reads it, but
he does not implement it in his life. Thirdly,
		
00:19:33 --> 00:19:59
			neglecting judging by it, making it it making it the judge between us in matters pertaining to the
OSU of the dean the fundamentals of the dean, as well as the furore the secondary matters of the
deen and believing that it does not provide certainty meaning you may believe in the Quran has been
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:00
			from Allah.
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:18
			But you're not convinced that every single word of it is truth from Allah. Like some people today,
who would rather put their faith and their belief in what sciences over what Allah subhanho wa Taala
has said in the four three,
		
00:20:20 --> 00:20:24
			abandoning neglecting to dub borovets
		
00:20:25 --> 00:21:13
			reflecting over it, trying to understand it, trying to gain knowledge of what Allah has intended by
each and every single word that he has revealed. Yes, receiving it is a good thing. But there is no
benefit of reciting the Quran. If you abandon and neglect, trying to understand its meanings, even
if you don't understand the Arabic language, pick up, pick up a translation of the meanings of the
Quran, pick up a deaf seed of the Quran, say in lessons of Tafseer to try to gain an understanding
of what Allah subhanho wa Taala has revealed. And what has he intended by each and every single idea
that he has revealed. Fifth, we
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:30
			neglecting and abandoning using the Quran for treatment for the diseases of the hearts, rather
looking for treatment, looking for treatment from other places.
		
00:21:31 --> 00:22:12
			And so even after you he concludes, and he says all of this, all of this comes under Allah subhanho
wa Taala statement or call or Rasulullah Robbie in ohmmeter how to handle Quran amadora that
complaint that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu it was in the made when he said yeah, Rob, my
people have taken this grand in neglect, and have abandoned it. And then finally ignore him. He
says, even if some types of neglect may be lighter, and less dangerous than others. Finally, my dear
brothers and sisters, let us not forget
		
00:22:15 --> 00:22:16
			let us not forget
		
00:22:18 --> 00:22:20
			that in the Quran, Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
00:22:22 --> 00:22:31
			he used the word filthy Len heavy, two times and two times only.
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:40
			Let us ponder over this. Allah subhanho wa Taala had mentioned the word heavy, only twice in the
		
00:22:43 --> 00:22:46
			end until one time it was a parent who attalla said
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:48
			in
		
00:22:49 --> 00:22:50
			a boon and it
		
00:22:52 --> 00:22:55
			was a rune awara whom he omen for
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:58
			these people the kuffaar
		
00:22:59 --> 00:23:00
			they love
		
00:23:02 --> 00:23:02
			this
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:06
			temporary dounia
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:11
			this quick enjoyment that they get in this dunya.
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:23
			And they have abandoned and they have neglected what is to come. And the Lord describes it as a
heavy day Yeoman Sati.
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:56
			As for the other time that alumnae mentions the word heavy in certain rupee, cloverland tequila, we
will definitely reveal to you a heavy word. And this was in the very beginning of the revelation of
the Quran in surah, two Muslim men, Allah subhanho wa Taala told the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam that he will reveal to him something which is very heavy. And that is nothing other than the
revelation, the
		
00:23:57 --> 00:23:59
