R Rahman r Rahim. hamadani rd I'm sorry. The first one is Hameed, ne rd and then Nana Rahim as now Allah yardi. So every time that you recite a verse from soloable Fatiha Allah subhana wa Tada This one's deal. And this is why we have Omar Abdullah Aziz Rahim Allah, that every time he would

00:01:58 --> 00:02:05

lead the Salah, and he would pause after each verse in Surah Fatiha

00:02:07 --> 00:02:35

So, by doing this, you you you will have the presence of the heart, the mind and the Salah. As if you're having a conversation with Allah subhana wa Tada. That's the first benefit. The second benefit which we started Part Three

00:02:37 --> 00:02:40

with is the benefit of tauheed.

00:02:42 --> 00:02:46

Brothers and sisters in Islam sobat Fatiha

00:02:47 --> 00:03:07

is about the heart of the hate, because of the verse iya cannot yakka nestorian z you alone we worship Allah, you alone, we seek help in worshiping you.

00:03:09 --> 00:03:10

And this is what

00:03:12 --> 00:03:26

made a lot of scholars, author of books about this particular verse like menaggio Sadie keen for example, the Stations of the seekers is a famous book

00:03:27 --> 00:03:35

which is written just about this verse. And I shared with you the statement of it has an anniversary

00:03:36 --> 00:03:36

which

00:03:37 --> 00:04:22

NAMM in Bay Happy fisherville. Eman fisherville. Eman compiler to show I believe man, he mentioned that Allah Subhana Allah revealed 104 books. And he summed up the knowledge in these 104 books into three books the Torah, the gospel and the sons of the old. Then he summed up some Hannah all the knowledge in these three books into the Koran. And then Allah subhanaw taala summed up all the knowledge in the Quran in Surah Fatiha and sola to refer to how was summed up in Surah in that verse, a Naboo was nasty. So as if you know, if you know,

00:04:23 --> 00:04:50

the meaning of Erica Nabu was yakka. Next time, you have learned the meanings, and understood the meanings in these 104 books. Consequently, that are on the Injeel and the Psalms, consequently the Quran and consequently Al Fatiha. Why brothers and sisters in Islam

00:04:51 --> 00:04:59

because, for you to worship Allah and that's what you're asking. You're saying

00:05:00 --> 00:05:02

Allah, I want to worship you

00:05:03 --> 00:05:10

alone. And this is by the way, the way it's done in Arabic When you place the object,

00:05:11 --> 00:05:25

before the verb in the Arabic language, this is a form, which is no one in the Arabic grammar, by caging and hust.

00:05:26 --> 00:05:38

When you say he yakka you see he yakka he yakka is an object. Now who do we will ship?

00:05:40 --> 00:05:49

warship you, Yara is not worship you is you, we wish you we want to worship

00:05:51 --> 00:06:18

when you do this, so you want to single out Allah subhana wa Ida with your worship. And this is what the scholars call that we do Lulu here that you worship Allah that our eight which is pertaining to you. It though at Llanelli, the action, the action of the hearts, the action of the limbs, the action of the tongue.

00:06:20 --> 00:06:38

So you want to give this to Allah subhanho wa Taala that's the message that you're trying to do now, for you to be able to do this. The first step is to know Allah subhana wa Tada. So for you actually, to single out Allah subhana wa tada with your action,

00:06:40 --> 00:06:58

whether it is the action of the heart, sincerity, the intention, the reliance in our code, the love, the fees, the whole, all of these are acts of worship which are exercised with the heart,

00:07:00 --> 00:07:09

the action of the heart, and which normally would trigger the tongue to speak. Last comme la ilaha illa Allah, Lamar stuff for law,

00:07:10 --> 00:07:26

the recitation of the Quran, the utterance of the Universal Declaration of faith, I said, well, La Ilaha Illa, Allah, it Tao, are you giving Dawa with your tongue and so forth, and of course, the action of the limbs as well.

00:07:27 --> 00:08:13

So for these three actions, the action of the heart, the action of the tongue, and the action of the rest of the limbs, for this to happen, it must be based on the statement of the heart, which is what the knowledge of Allah so the scholars quoted the statement of the heart, that you know who Allah subhana wa Taala is, and this is why brothers and sisters in Islam the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam always connected the quality pertaining to your knowledge of Allah subhana wa tada with the quality of your action, whether it is the action of the heart.

00:08:15 --> 00:08:58

You see, when those three individuals came to his house, and they asked about the manner of his worship, he got on and one of them said, I will pay 200 every single night and the other one he said, I will fast every single day and the third one said, No, no, no, no marriage and no family, because they will distract me from the worship of Allah subhanaw taala the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam got on the boat with and he said, well, and the most knowledgeable of you about a lot. No one knows a lot better than me. And I'm the most fearful of Allah. You see the connection, the connection between the act of the heart which is the fee of the hucha that a loved one can be left.

00:08:59 --> 00:09:34

What I said to Camilla Ohashi, will, the verse and sort of fathers in nema yaksha la her min a daddy he added the whole Mr. Wu indeed the people who feel a love so pine I want to honor most are the most knowledgeable for Allah subhana wa tada is, the first thing brothers and sisters in Islam is you know who Allah subhana wa Taala is because we know who Allah subhanaw taala is that's why you're seeing right away what you're going to study. You see your knowledge of Allah when you request it to single Allah

00:09:36 --> 00:09:59

with your worship that you do not associate others in worship with Allah, that you do not worship others besides Allah, Allah either way, because you know that you're weak and Allah is the strong one. You know that you are poor and Allah is the rich one. You know that you know you're misguided and alized on who will guide you. You know, that is

00:10:00 --> 00:10:51

Yo, you're in need to Allah subhanho wa Taala and immediately said, what a year Can I stay? Is because of your knowledge of Allah subhanho wa Taala That is why brothers and sisters in Islam the moment that you forget who Allah is, you will forget yourself. The moment that you lack the knowledge of Allah, you forget who you are. Yeah, you have Lavina Amma No. Oh, you believe it duckula be conscious of Allah, Walton don't know some academic livet and let every soul think and reconsider what they have done for the day of judgment. What tequila and and again be conscious of Allah subhanho wa Taala in the lobby will be metalman one at a coup, Ken Levine and national law had

00:10:51 --> 00:11:05

to answer whom fusa whom, and do not be like those who forgot who Allah is, who lacked the knowledge of who Allah is. And as a result of this, they ended up with what

00:11:06 --> 00:11:30

being ignorant about themselves. And when the people have had and the people of our brothers and sisters in Islam and some of the books, they were so strong that the size was 40 feet. Imagine this. This is how tall they were. And they were very strong. They used to build houses out of the mountains.

00:11:33 --> 00:12:14

June 1 tech bubble fill of video leading up to a call to men ashes domina poo, as for act, they became arrogant in earth. Look what they said, who is more stronger than us? Who is stronger than us? No one is stronger than us. Look how Allah answer them. Our lm Mira and Allah, Allah, Allah Allah, Allah, Allah, Allah who said to me, don't they you know that the one who created them, the one who created them, is stronger than them.

00:12:18 --> 00:12:29

Yeah, cannot wait for you to be able to worship Allah, you must know who Allah is. So the way to worship Allah and you truly, and this is what I said, you see,

00:12:30 --> 00:12:41

the scholars they call the statement of the heart, what is the statement of the heart, their knowledge of Allah, the knowledge which leads to certainty, which leads to

00:12:42 --> 00:13:03

compliance submission. And you do this and this is why brothers and sisters in Islam The first step to the eighth, that you know who Allah is that I'm Anna who La ilaha illAllah. Learn who Allah is, learn to Allah is and this is why the Surah Surah Al Fatiha before he

00:13:04 --> 00:13:54

can stay in before requesting to worship Allah. It presented to you, the Lordship of Allah, and the names and the attributes of Allah. Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil aalameen is the Lordship of Allah. Allah Magna Rahim names and attributes of Allah Maliki only 18 attributes of Allah subhanho wa Taala the kingship of Allah Subhana then he cannot do yakka Next time, brothers and sisters in Islam and brief for you to know how to worship Allah subhana wa tada I'm sorry how to learn about Allah subhana wa Tada. The best way of course is to look at Allah subhana wa tada is actually to see Allah and we know as Muslims, we cannot do this in this world.

00:13:56 --> 00:14:33

Massoud sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in a context of hooning us against the Antichrist. He said to us alemu and nakulan tabula rasa tetamu to rest assured that none of you will see Allah until you die. Why? Because the Antichrist will come and he will claim that he is Allah. So the fact that I'm able to see you this in itself refute the fact that you are Allah subhana wa Tada. So we cannot see Allah subhana wa tada in this world. So the only thing we're left with is an Al konia. Well,

00:14:34 --> 00:14:43

Arnie, what is it is konia by looking around you and seeing this universe, who created this universe?

00:14:44 --> 00:14:59

unholy aku min. V Rishi in a mall harpoon? Will they create it out of nothing? Or did they create themselves that, you know, who created this world who created this universe?

00:15:00 --> 00:15:38

And the big one when he was asked, How did you learn that there is a law he said, Listen, that done with a camel even though I do not see a camel tells me that there was a camel here. When I see that the printing of a feet on the ground that tells me there was somebody walking here. And now the earth with all these valleys and the mountains, the heaven with all these thoughts, and that the seas and the oceans with all these waves, this doesn't tell you that there is a creator Come on, there's something wrong with you. There's something wrong with you. So the first thing that you look at is an Al konia and this is why brothers and sisters in Islam, we were instructed in many places

00:15:38 --> 00:15:52

in the Quran, to travel in earth and ponder upon the creation of Allah subhana wa Flm jambu ila summer if I can he said by Nina her was a young woman.

00:15:53 --> 00:16:33

Have they looked at the heavens above them? How we created it and how we beautified it for them? And there is no holes there is no breaking breaks and and the heaven alone Luna Elan EBD ke for Julio? Have they not looked at the camels how they were created? So they were asked to travel and ponder? What have you ll Konya, this is the area the evidence for Allah Subhana, WA tada existence, our creation, the creation of the things around us. But normally out of this particular

00:16:34 --> 00:16:38

sign or signs in plural, because there are plenty of them,

00:16:40 --> 00:16:50

you conclude two principles, or you deduce two conclusions, you come up with two conclusions. Conclusion number one,

00:16:51 --> 00:17:05

or Principle number one, that this universe must be creative. Because what is the other options they have? created itself? Or

00:17:07 --> 00:17:08

created out of nothing?

00:17:10 --> 00:17:17

And both No, no. So there must be a creator. So this is Principle number one. Principle number two,

00:17:18 --> 00:17:29

the qualities and the attributes of that create total, must be way greater than what he created.

00:17:31 --> 00:17:36

This is why we say what warship deck create or not deck created.

00:17:37 --> 00:18:22

So if you look at the earth, look at the qualities of Earth. Look at the perfection of the sun and the moon. I'm not going to worship the sun and the moon, even though the sun and the moon are perfect, and they're factually how they function. But I'm not going to worship them. Because the attributes and the qualities of the one who made them, the one who created them logic, this is logic, this is making sense must be far greater. Jesus, even though he was a wonderful messenger, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but I'm not going to worship him like Christians do, I'm going to worship the one who created him, because he must be far greater than what he created. Now. So this

00:18:22 --> 00:18:27

is what you get out of pondering what you get out of looking around you.

00:18:28 --> 00:18:29

And

00:18:30 --> 00:19:21

you conclude that there must be a creator, this is one to you conclude that the creator must have better, greater qualities and attributes. No one is like him, no one is equal to him. Once it comes to his divine essence, once it comes to his name, once it comes to his attributes, once it comes to his actions, and that is why I'm going to single him out alone with my with my worship. Now for me to learn who the Creator is, and what are his attributes? What are his qualities, I need to look at an area or an area, I need to look at the revelation, because like I said earlier that Allah did not enable us to see him. And there is no one else who looks like a law that I can go and look and go

00:19:21 --> 00:20:00

this is looks like a lot, right? We said that no one is like no one is clear. This is like a law. So the only way for me to learn about Allah is the names and the attributes of Allah subhanho wa Taala is his action. And this is why it showed up to the Fatiha before saying he was gonna stay in it presented to you, the Lordship of Allah, the actions that creation, the sovereignty, the fact that he takes care of what he created, he gets life he gets death and then the names and the attributes of Allah subhana wa Tada. And then at the end the you know, the fact that he is Master of the Day of Judgment and then so

00:20:00 --> 00:20:13

panela then you call upon Allah saying that you want to worship Allah subhana wa tada I won't. I hope this is clear jacamo halos panic alarm over Hamburg I have to pray a share Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh

Tawheed II
