All praise due to Allah

00:00:40--> 00:00:42

The second night that Allah

00:00:47--> 00:00:49

to learn, to receive

00:00:50--> 00:00:51

00:00:52--> 00:00:53

scholars.

00:00:53--> 00:00:54

We ask Allah

00:00:54--> 00:00:55

to bless

00:00:55--> 00:00:57

our doctor Karim

00:00:58--> 00:01:01

Hussain. Myself, I have learned from him a

00:01:01--> 00:01:04

lot through YouTube. May Allah

00:01:04--> 00:01:06

reward him by the best reward in his

00:01:06--> 00:01:07

life and hereafter.

00:01:08--> 00:01:09

Alhamdulillah, Allah

00:01:10--> 00:01:11

00:01:13--> 00:01:14

like, this event,

00:01:15--> 00:01:16

this good sign that Allah

00:01:17--> 00:01:17

loves you.

00:01:18--> 00:01:18

You are

00:01:19--> 00:01:19

seeking

00:01:20--> 00:01:22

the inheritance of the prophet Muhammad

00:01:24--> 00:01:25

And especially

00:01:25--> 00:01:27

if you are seeking the inheritance

00:01:28--> 00:01:29

from the,

00:01:30--> 00:01:31

the the the authentic

00:01:32--> 00:01:33

source of knowledge

00:01:34--> 00:01:34

that Allah

00:01:36--> 00:01:38

loves you as well. And,

00:01:38--> 00:01:39

alhamdulillah, Allah

00:01:39--> 00:01:41

granted us this opportunity

00:01:41--> 00:01:43

to receive our

00:01:43--> 00:01:46

Sheikh, doctor Kariba Boseit. We ask Allah

00:01:47--> 00:01:49

to bless him and to bless his family,

00:01:49--> 00:01:50

and we ask Allah

00:01:51--> 00:01:54

to reward him. He came from USA and

00:01:54--> 00:01:55

a long journey

00:01:56--> 00:01:58

to see us, to teach us,

00:01:59--> 00:02:01

to attend this event with us. We ask

00:02:01--> 00:02:04

Allah to reward all all of you, and,

00:02:04--> 00:02:07

we ask Allah who gathered us here in

00:02:07--> 00:02:09

his house to gather us around his beloved

00:02:09--> 00:02:11

prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam. I will

00:02:11--> 00:02:13

not take long the time. I will leave

00:02:13--> 00:02:15

you with our, doctor

00:02:16--> 00:02:17

Sheikh Karim Huzayd. May Allah

00:02:18--> 00:02:19

bless him.

00:02:51--> 00:02:53

My dear respected brothers and sisters in

00:02:57--> 00:02:57

Islam,

00:03:01--> 00:03:03

for the kind words,

00:03:05--> 00:03:07

but I would just disclaim I'm not a

00:03:07--> 00:03:10

scholar. I'm just a student of knowledge. I'm

00:03:10--> 00:03:11

not a scholar.

00:03:13--> 00:03:14

For his

00:03:15--> 00:03:16

beautiful words.

00:03:17--> 00:03:19

I chose tonight to

00:03:20--> 00:03:21

talk

00:03:22--> 00:03:25

about the word that our imam used

00:03:26--> 00:03:27

a couple of times,

00:03:28--> 00:03:31

which is the word love,

00:03:33--> 00:03:34

that Allah loves you.

00:03:36--> 00:03:37

You know,

00:03:38--> 00:03:39

we we all claim

00:03:40--> 00:03:43

that we love Allah. If you ask any

00:03:43--> 00:03:43

Muslim,

00:03:44--> 00:03:44

we

00:03:47--> 00:03:50

do you love Allah? They will not,

00:03:51--> 00:03:53

even you will find claimants who are not

00:03:53--> 00:03:53

truly,

00:03:55--> 00:03:56

you know, fulfilling the

00:03:57--> 00:03:57

obligations

00:03:57--> 00:03:59

of of the love

00:03:59--> 00:04:01

because we know love

00:04:02--> 00:04:04

comes with a loyalty, with a commitment to

00:04:04--> 00:04:05

Allah

00:04:06--> 00:04:06

to

00:04:07--> 00:04:08

loving his messengers

00:04:08--> 00:04:10

and loving his religion.

00:04:11--> 00:04:13

And also loving the believers,

00:04:13--> 00:04:15

those who adhere to that.

00:04:17--> 00:04:19

You will find a lot of claimants, but,

00:04:20--> 00:04:21

truly the people who

00:04:23--> 00:04:24

showcase that love,

00:04:25--> 00:04:26

you know, and

00:04:27--> 00:04:27

their observance

00:04:28--> 00:04:29

and adherence

00:04:29--> 00:04:30

to the religion,

00:04:31--> 00:04:32

very few.

00:04:34--> 00:04:35

Ibn al Khaim,

00:04:36--> 00:04:37

a scholar,

00:04:38--> 00:04:40

which you all hear his name every now

00:04:40--> 00:04:40

and then,

00:04:41--> 00:04:42

Rahimahullah,

00:04:43--> 00:04:45

he made a very profound statement.

00:04:47--> 00:04:47

He said,

00:04:59--> 00:05:00

Whoever strives

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

to get to know Allah

00:05:03--> 00:05:04

through his names

00:05:06--> 00:05:06

and

00:05:07--> 00:05:07

attributes

00:05:09--> 00:05:10

and actions of lordship.

00:05:18--> 00:05:20

You will find your heart

00:05:21--> 00:05:21

to

00:05:21--> 00:05:23

love Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.

00:05:25--> 00:05:26

And this is

00:05:26--> 00:05:29

the jannah when you find that love in

00:05:29--> 00:05:31

your heart for Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala

00:05:31--> 00:05:34

is the jannah that you live in earth.

00:05:35--> 00:05:39

Because when you achieve that, you will find

00:05:39--> 00:05:39

yourself

00:05:40--> 00:05:43

engaged in listening to his words, the Quran,

00:05:43--> 00:05:46

and reciting his words, the Quran,

00:05:49--> 00:05:50

in observing

00:05:50--> 00:05:52

his commands, establishing the

00:05:53--> 00:05:53

salah,

00:05:55--> 00:05:56

and, you know, performing

00:05:57--> 00:05:58

acts of worship

00:06:00--> 00:06:01

from the

00:06:02--> 00:06:05

window of love makes a big difference than

00:06:05--> 00:06:07

looking at it as obligation.

00:06:09--> 00:06:10

You know,

00:06:10--> 00:06:13

the people who observe the salah,

00:06:14--> 00:06:16

normally, whether they

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

observe it Unfortunately,

00:06:21--> 00:06:23

many of us, when we observe the salah,

00:06:23--> 00:06:25

I just wanna get done with it.

00:06:26--> 00:06:29

But the the people who have that love

00:06:29--> 00:06:30

in their hearts,

00:06:31--> 00:06:33

they enjoy the salah.

00:06:33--> 00:06:36

Like, Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Salam used to say

00:06:36--> 00:06:36

to Bilal,

00:06:37--> 00:06:38

let

00:06:39--> 00:06:41

us find comfort in it. And

00:06:42--> 00:06:43

in multiple

00:06:43--> 00:06:45

hadith, Rasul

00:06:46--> 00:06:46

would actually

00:06:47--> 00:06:49

stand in salah for hours.

00:06:50--> 00:06:53

Hudayfah said I prayed behind him 1 night.

00:07:17--> 00:07:20

One of the ways according to the statement

00:07:20--> 00:07:21

of Ibn al Qayyim

00:07:22--> 00:07:23

to know about Allah

00:07:24--> 00:07:25

because obviously

00:07:27--> 00:07:28

to love someone

00:07:29--> 00:07:30

you have to know him.

00:07:37--> 00:07:39

The love that you have for Allah

00:07:40--> 00:07:42

has to be consciously

00:07:43--> 00:07:45

chosen by you. It's not something that you

00:07:45--> 00:07:47

have a choice over.

00:07:48--> 00:07:50

It's not something that you choose. You have

00:07:50--> 00:07:51

an option.

00:07:52--> 00:07:53

Actually you have

00:07:54--> 00:07:56

to decide to love Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.

00:07:56--> 00:07:57

But now

00:07:57--> 00:08:00

to make it easy Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala

00:08:00--> 00:08:01

given us means

00:08:02--> 00:08:04

in order to learn about him

00:08:05--> 00:08:06

and in order to

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

develop, cultivate,

00:08:09--> 00:08:10

instill,

00:08:10--> 00:08:13

plant this love in our hearts, and actually

00:08:13--> 00:08:14

make it grow.

00:08:14--> 00:08:16

And one of these ways is knowing Allah

00:08:18--> 00:08:21

Ideally, brothers and sisters in Islam, if if

00:08:21--> 00:08:24

you wanna know about someone, the ideal

00:08:25--> 00:08:26

that you use your senses,

00:08:28--> 00:08:29

that you actually look

00:08:30--> 00:08:31

at the

00:08:31--> 00:08:32

individual.

00:08:33--> 00:08:35

In this case, we're talking about created beings

00:08:35--> 00:08:36

here.

00:08:36--> 00:08:38

But when it comes to Allah subhanahu wa

00:08:38--> 00:08:41

ta'ala, we know that we cannot see Allah

00:08:41--> 00:08:43

subhanahu wa ta'ala in this world.

00:08:44--> 00:08:47

In this world we cannot see Allah subhanahu

00:08:47--> 00:08:48

wa ta'ala.

00:08:49--> 00:08:49

The prophet

00:08:51--> 00:08:51

hadith

00:08:52--> 00:08:52

ed dejal,

00:08:53--> 00:08:55

he warned the Ummah

00:08:56--> 00:08:59

regarding him, and he said something very interesting,

00:08:59--> 00:09:02

which you should think about the relevance here.

00:09:02--> 00:09:03

He said,

00:09:10--> 00:09:13

Be informed that none of you is going

00:09:13--> 00:09:15

to be able to see Allah

00:09:15--> 00:09:16

until you die.

00:09:17--> 00:09:18

Now the question, what this has to do

00:09:18--> 00:09:20

with the Dajjal? Dajjal is gonna claim that

00:09:20--> 00:09:23

he is God. So, basically, the fact that

00:09:23--> 00:09:25

I'm able to see you, this in itself

00:09:26--> 00:09:28

refutes your claim that you're lying. That's not

00:09:28--> 00:09:29

true.

00:09:29--> 00:09:31

Because if you're truly God, if you're truly

00:09:31--> 00:09:32

Allah,

00:09:33--> 00:09:35

I should not be able to see you

00:09:35--> 00:09:37

because your greatness is too,

00:09:38--> 00:09:42

much for these small eyes to comprehend it.

00:09:43--> 00:09:44

Your your your your

00:09:45--> 00:09:47

your majestic greatness,

00:09:47--> 00:09:49

brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:09:50--> 00:09:50

Oh,

00:09:50--> 00:09:53

and we have the experiment of Nabiullah Musa

00:09:54--> 00:09:55

alayhi salatu wasalam.

00:10:21--> 00:10:24

Allah. Oh, Allah. Can you make me see

00:10:24--> 00:10:24

you?

00:10:27--> 00:10:29

I wanna upgrade. You know? I I spoke

00:10:29--> 00:10:31

with you. I wanna see you.

00:10:33--> 00:10:35

You're not gonna be able to

00:10:35--> 00:10:36

see

00:10:38--> 00:10:39

me.

00:10:41--> 00:10:44

But look at this mountain, which is miter

00:10:44--> 00:10:46

in creation than you, human.

00:10:47--> 00:10:48

If this mountain

00:10:49--> 00:10:50

stays still,

00:10:51--> 00:10:52

you're gonna be able to see me.

00:11:07--> 00:11:09

Based on hadith Abu Hurairafi musnat Ahmad,

00:11:10--> 00:11:12

the prophet did like this, Allah lifted the

00:11:12--> 00:11:13

veil that much.

00:11:14--> 00:11:16

So the mountain was exposed to the greatness

00:11:16--> 00:11:17

of Allah.

00:11:37--> 00:11:39

1 day, the prophet sallallahu alaihi wa sallam

00:11:39--> 00:11:42

stood up and he delivered 5 meaningful

00:11:43--> 00:11:44

words,

00:11:44--> 00:11:45

5 meaningful

00:11:46--> 00:11:46

sentences,

00:11:47--> 00:11:49

5 meaningful things.

00:11:49--> 00:11:50

1,

00:11:52--> 00:11:53

Allah doesn't sleep

00:11:57--> 00:11:58

and is not befitting for Allah

00:11:59--> 00:11:59

to

00:12:02--> 00:12:02

sleep.

00:12:03--> 00:12:04

He lowers people.

00:12:04--> 00:12:06

He elevates some.

00:12:10--> 00:12:13

Whatever we do during the night is presented

00:12:13--> 00:12:14

to him before the daylight.

00:12:19--> 00:12:21

And whatever we do during the course of

00:12:21--> 00:12:23

the day is presented to him before the

00:12:23--> 00:12:23

night.

00:12:25--> 00:12:27

The veil between Allah

00:12:28--> 00:12:29

and his creation

00:12:29--> 00:12:31

is made out of light.

00:12:33--> 00:12:34

Of this veil is to be lifted.

00:12:42--> 00:12:43

Everything

00:12:44--> 00:12:45

that Allah has sight

00:12:45--> 00:12:46

encompasses

00:12:46--> 00:12:48

will burn

00:12:50--> 00:12:52

Impossible to see Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala in

00:12:52--> 00:12:53

this world.

00:12:55--> 00:12:56

Love Allah.

00:12:56--> 00:12:58

We need to know about Allah.

00:12:59--> 00:13:02

The only way for us to know about

00:13:02--> 00:13:03

Allah

00:13:13--> 00:13:16

The his creational signs

00:13:17--> 00:13:18

that we look at the universe.

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

And

00:13:21--> 00:13:24

you ask this question, who created such a

00:13:24--> 00:13:25

perfect

00:13:25--> 00:13:26

setting

00:13:26--> 00:13:27

of the universe,

00:13:28--> 00:13:30

of this universe that we have?

00:13:31--> 00:13:33

Mahwade, there must be a creator

00:13:33--> 00:13:34

for

00:13:34--> 00:13:35

this. We,

00:13:37--> 00:13:37

we have,

00:13:39--> 00:13:42

an evolving religion, which they say the fastest

00:13:42--> 00:13:44

growing religion in the world, atheism,

00:13:45--> 00:13:46

thanks to the education,

00:13:47--> 00:13:48

you know, system

00:13:48--> 00:13:49

in the world.

00:13:50--> 00:13:52

Even in the Muslim world, we have those

00:13:52--> 00:13:54

people appearing because of the,

00:13:55--> 00:13:56

US

00:13:56--> 00:13:59

American curriculum and the British curriculum where they

00:14:01--> 00:14:01

remove,

00:14:02--> 00:14:03

Allah

00:14:04--> 00:14:05

from the creation from the

00:14:06--> 00:14:06

teachings.

00:14:07--> 00:14:09

So you you send your child for 12

00:14:09--> 00:14:11

years. All they learn is

00:14:12--> 00:14:14

you can be successful without Allah

00:14:14--> 00:14:16

You can be happy without Allah.

00:14:18--> 00:14:18

Yeah. Yeah.

00:14:19--> 00:14:19

Subhanallah,

00:14:20--> 00:14:20

they

00:14:21--> 00:14:23

you cannot imagine that they deny

00:14:24--> 00:14:25

the existence

00:14:25--> 00:14:26

of Allah.

00:14:27--> 00:14:29

They say, Allah, there is no god. That's

00:14:29--> 00:14:30

what they say.

00:14:31--> 00:14:33

That is why Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala addressed

00:14:33--> 00:14:36

them in one verse in Surah Taqtu.

00:14:37--> 00:14:38

Ask them this question.

00:14:45--> 00:14:45

So

00:14:46--> 00:14:47

if there is no creator,

00:14:48--> 00:14:51

were you created out of nothing, or did

00:14:51--> 00:14:52

you create yourself?

00:14:52--> 00:14:54

You answer this if you have intellect.

00:14:55--> 00:14:57

The answer is no. So there must be

00:14:57--> 00:14:57

a creator.

00:14:58--> 00:15:01

There must be one, and that's what you

00:15:02--> 00:15:04

reach if you use your intellect

00:15:05--> 00:15:06

fairly and justly,

00:15:07--> 00:15:09

devoid of arrogance and pride.

00:15:09--> 00:15:12

Normally, those people have arrogance and pride in

00:15:12--> 00:15:15

their hearts. They know inside them

00:15:15--> 00:15:16

that this is the way it is. There

00:15:16--> 00:15:18

must be a creator.

00:15:21--> 00:15:22

The, Bedouin,

00:15:23--> 00:15:25

you know, when we say a Bedouin, someone

00:15:25--> 00:15:27

who is, you know, simple,

00:15:27--> 00:15:29

They asked him,

00:15:29--> 00:15:31

how did you end up believing in Allah?

00:15:31--> 00:15:33

How did you figure out that there is

00:15:33--> 00:15:34

a God? He said, listen.

00:15:38--> 00:15:40

If I see a dung of a camel,

00:15:40--> 00:15:42

that means there was a camel here.

00:15:48--> 00:15:50

And if I see the, printing of the

00:15:50--> 00:15:52

feet, the footprint on the ground, that means

00:15:52--> 00:15:53

someone walked here.

00:15:54--> 00:15:55

Then he says

00:15:56--> 00:15:56

to approach

00:15:57--> 00:16:00

the heaven, the stars, the beautiful sky with

00:16:00--> 00:16:01

the stars.

00:16:05--> 00:16:08

This Earth with these beautiful valleys and mountains.

00:16:12--> 00:16:14

These oceans and seas with the waves.

00:16:18--> 00:16:20

This doesn't tell you that there is someone

00:16:20--> 00:16:21

who created this. Come on. Give me a

00:16:21--> 00:16:22

break.

00:16:22--> 00:16:23

Something wrong with you.

00:16:25--> 00:16:28

Of course, you know, we we use intellect

00:16:29--> 00:16:30

as far as here.

00:16:31--> 00:16:33

Then to learn about Allah

00:16:35--> 00:16:36

his names,

00:16:36--> 00:16:37

his attributes,

00:16:38--> 00:16:40

we have to go to the revelation.

00:16:41--> 00:16:43

We have to get this from the revelation.

00:16:54--> 00:16:56

The names of Allah is

00:16:57--> 00:16:58

What does it mean?

00:16:59--> 00:17:03

That you're not allowed to name Allah with

00:17:03--> 00:17:06

any name that was not found in the

00:17:06--> 00:17:06

revelation.

00:17:07--> 00:17:09

Because we haven't seen Allah. We just said

00:17:09--> 00:17:10

that a minute ago.

00:17:11--> 00:17:13

Add to this, there is no one

00:17:13--> 00:17:14

of his creation

00:17:15--> 00:17:16

resembles him.

00:17:16--> 00:17:17

Now

00:17:17--> 00:17:20

listen, whether you've seen Allah, which has never

00:17:20--> 00:17:21

happened,

00:17:21--> 00:17:24

or whether Allah created something on earth that

00:17:24--> 00:17:26

looks like him, subhanah, which has never

00:17:27--> 00:17:29

happened. So how would you talk about Allah

00:17:29--> 00:17:31

without see without having those

00:17:31--> 00:17:32

elements?

00:17:43--> 00:17:46

He described himself, subhanahu wa ta'ala,

00:17:46--> 00:17:48

in the revelation. So we have to go

00:17:48--> 00:17:49

to the revelation,

00:17:50--> 00:17:52

and this is the major

00:17:52--> 00:17:53

difference between Muslims and,

00:17:54--> 00:17:56

Christian and Jews.

00:17:57--> 00:17:59

You know, this is the major difference, and

00:17:59--> 00:18:01

some of you may, you know,

00:18:01--> 00:18:03

hear this for the first time. You need

00:18:03--> 00:18:06

to understand that they believe in a god.

00:18:07--> 00:18:09

But what their issue with Allah? They distorted

00:18:09--> 00:18:12

his names. Why? Because they run their mouth.

00:18:13--> 00:18:15

They say Allah has this, Allah has that,

00:18:15--> 00:18:16

Allah has this, Allah has that.

00:18:18--> 00:18:20

When a Muslim speaks of Allah,

00:18:20--> 00:18:21

he never

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

utters

00:18:23--> 00:18:23

an attribute

00:18:24--> 00:18:25

or a name

00:18:25--> 00:18:28

without a reference in the Quran or in

00:18:28--> 00:18:30

the sound sunnah of the prophet sallallahu alaihi

00:18:30--> 00:18:31

wa sallam.

00:18:35--> 00:18:36

Wanted to encourage us

00:18:36--> 00:18:37

and,

00:18:39--> 00:18:39

you

00:18:40--> 00:18:41

know, mobilize our forces.

00:18:43--> 00:18:45

So he said in an authentic hadith,

00:18:46--> 00:18:48

which is a Quran jahul imam al Bukhari

00:18:48--> 00:18:50

a Muslim actually agreed upon by both of

00:18:50--> 00:18:51

them, hadith.

00:18:57--> 00:18:59

You guys don't don't say here.

00:19:00--> 00:19:01

Cambridge knows?

00:19:28--> 00:19:30

The stingy is the one I mentioned

00:19:31--> 00:19:33

in front of him, and he doesn't send

00:19:33--> 00:19:35

his salas on me.

00:20:03--> 00:20:06

Whoever does Asaha, and I'm intentionally using the

00:20:06--> 00:20:08

Arabic because, unfortunately, Asaha now,

00:20:08--> 00:20:10

according to a lot of Muslims, is really

00:20:10--> 00:20:13

singing it, chanting it. You know? They,

00:20:13--> 00:20:15

you know, they chant it in a wedding

00:20:15--> 00:20:17

or, you know, when there is a divorce

00:20:17--> 00:20:19

or something, it's just it's

00:20:19--> 00:20:22

just the names of Allah is just for,

00:20:22--> 00:20:22

you know

00:20:23--> 00:20:23

but

00:20:24--> 00:20:24

Asaha,

00:20:25--> 00:20:27

brothers and sisters in Islam,

00:20:27--> 00:20:28

means

00:20:29--> 00:20:30

that you,

00:20:31--> 00:20:32

number 1,

00:20:33--> 00:20:34

bring it from

00:20:34--> 00:20:36

the Quran and sunnah.

00:20:36--> 00:20:37

Number 2,

00:20:38--> 00:20:41

understand it the way the first generation of

00:20:41--> 00:20:42

Muslims

00:20:42--> 00:20:43

understood it,

00:20:44--> 00:20:45

that you affirm

00:20:45--> 00:20:46

and you negate

00:20:47--> 00:20:47

without,

00:20:48--> 00:20:49

without resemblance,

00:20:50--> 00:20:52

without that wheel, without distorted

00:20:53--> 00:20:54

interpretation of these names,

00:20:55--> 00:20:57

without the harif, without

00:20:58--> 00:20:58

deviating,

00:20:59--> 00:21:02

and also not seeking the how about or

00:21:02--> 00:21:03

without the kief,

00:21:04--> 00:21:06

Hekada. And all of these terminologies,

00:21:07--> 00:21:07

you know, I

00:21:08--> 00:21:10

I have a a book which is available

00:21:10--> 00:21:11

online for free,

00:21:12--> 00:21:13

in my website

00:21:13--> 00:21:16

called know your lord. All of this is

00:21:16--> 00:21:16

explained.

00:21:17--> 00:21:19

But I'm trying just to touch on these

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

principles

00:21:22--> 00:21:24

that we affirm the names of Allah and

00:21:24--> 00:21:27

the attributes of Allah. Whatever Allah

00:21:28--> 00:21:31

named himself with, called himself with,

00:21:32--> 00:21:33

we affirm it.

00:21:33--> 00:21:36

And we don't try to

00:21:36--> 00:21:39

take its apparent meaning to a hidden meaning.

00:21:39--> 00:21:41

We don't say Rahma.

00:21:42--> 00:21:45

Rahma is we don't say Rahma is Rahma

00:21:45--> 00:21:46

is is,

00:21:47--> 00:21:48

Allah descends in the in the 3rd night

00:21:48--> 00:21:49

of

00:21:49--> 00:21:51

the the the third part of the night

00:21:51--> 00:21:53

is is Allah has rahman

00:21:53--> 00:21:55

dissends. Allah has descends in a way that

00:21:55--> 00:21:56

suits his majesty.

00:21:57--> 00:21:59

I just don't know how he descends

00:21:59--> 00:22:01

but he said I descend.

00:22:02--> 00:22:05

He said that so I affirm that. I

00:22:05--> 00:22:05

affirm that.

00:22:06--> 00:22:09

Now I don't worry about how does he

00:22:09--> 00:22:09

as descent.

00:22:10--> 00:22:11

It's not my business.

00:22:16--> 00:22:16

Allah

00:22:17--> 00:22:19

did not demand us to figure out how

00:22:19--> 00:22:19

he descends.

00:22:20--> 00:22:23

So why why why are you engaging in

00:22:23--> 00:22:24

something that Allah

00:22:24--> 00:22:25

told you to stop?

00:22:26--> 00:22:29

Just believe it and leave it.

00:22:33--> 00:22:35

Just let it pass. Believe it the way

00:22:36--> 00:22:38

and move on. Don't get stuck there,

00:22:39--> 00:22:40

brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:22:41--> 00:22:43

So Allah has 99 names.

00:22:44--> 00:22:44

Whoever

00:22:45--> 00:22:46

does

00:22:46--> 00:22:47

for these names,

00:22:47--> 00:22:49

he will enter Jannah.

00:22:50--> 00:22:51

Now the misconception

00:22:52--> 00:22:54

that we may have here is

00:22:54--> 00:22:56

are Allah his names

00:22:58--> 00:23:01

limited to number 99?

00:23:02--> 00:23:02

I wanna ask

00:23:03--> 00:23:05

you. Yes or no? No.

00:23:05--> 00:23:06

No.

00:23:06--> 00:23:08

So how do you reconcile that with the

00:23:08--> 00:23:10

hadith? We know that

00:23:10--> 00:23:12

Allah has infinite

00:23:13--> 00:23:14

names, and we have

00:23:14--> 00:23:17

more than one hadith. Hadith is Shafa'a is

00:23:17--> 00:23:17

an evidence

00:23:18--> 00:23:20

on the day of judgment when a when

00:23:20--> 00:23:22

a rasul salallahu alaihi wa sallam prostrates in

00:23:22--> 00:23:23

front of

00:23:23--> 00:23:24

the throne of

00:23:32--> 00:23:33

Allah

00:23:34--> 00:23:36

will reveal to me attributes and names of

00:23:36--> 00:23:39

his that no one else ever praised Allah

00:23:39--> 00:23:41

with it. That's on the day of judgment.

00:23:42--> 00:23:43

Also,

00:23:53--> 00:23:54

I call upon

00:23:55--> 00:23:57

you by the virtue of every name you

00:23:57--> 00:23:58

named yourself with,

00:23:59--> 00:24:00

you revealed in your books,

00:24:01--> 00:24:01

you

00:24:02--> 00:24:04

taught any of your servants, or you kept

00:24:04--> 00:24:05

the knowledge of

00:24:06--> 00:24:07

with you.

00:24:08--> 00:24:11

The the way that we understand this hadith

00:24:11--> 00:24:13

that out of the out of the infinite

00:24:13--> 00:24:14

numbers

00:24:15--> 00:24:15

of names,

00:24:16--> 00:24:17

there are 99 names.

00:24:18--> 00:24:21

Whoever hid these 99 names and does a

00:24:21--> 00:24:23

for them, he will enter.

00:24:23--> 00:24:25

It's a way to get to Jen.

00:24:27--> 00:24:28

Amazing. I was,

00:24:28--> 00:24:30

you know, the brother who,

00:24:31--> 00:24:31

drove me

00:24:34--> 00:24:35

to Cambridge,

00:24:36--> 00:24:37

brother of Oman.

00:24:37--> 00:24:40

Is is he around or he Inside. He's

00:24:40--> 00:24:41

inside.

00:24:42--> 00:24:44

He brought his 2 boys.

00:24:44--> 00:24:46

One of them is

00:24:46--> 00:24:47

Abdul Rahman,

00:24:48--> 00:24:50

and the other one is Abdul Rahim.

00:24:52--> 00:24:52

SubhanAllah.

00:24:53--> 00:24:55

So so I was, like, you know, trying

00:24:55--> 00:24:57

to figure out I I would like to

00:24:57--> 00:24:58

talk to my brothers about

00:24:59--> 00:25:01

one of the names of Allah subhanahu wa

00:25:01--> 00:25:01

ta'ala.

00:25:02--> 00:25:04

So maybe we can, you know, develop this

00:25:04--> 00:25:06

love for Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala because I'm

00:25:06--> 00:25:06

telling you

00:25:07--> 00:25:08

the key to success,

00:25:09--> 00:25:12

the key to enjoy Islam if you begin

00:25:12--> 00:25:13

loving Allah

00:25:14--> 00:25:17

you have that love in your heart for

00:25:17--> 00:25:17

Allah

00:25:18--> 00:25:20

This love will lead you to love his

00:25:20--> 00:25:21

messenger, to love his,

00:25:22--> 00:25:23

abide by it,

00:25:24--> 00:25:25

to love

00:25:25--> 00:25:27

the religion, to love the Quran,

00:25:27--> 00:25:28

to love to pray,

00:25:29--> 00:25:30

and to love the believers.

00:25:31--> 00:25:34

And you tell them I love you, And

00:25:34--> 00:25:35

I want to say this to all of

00:25:35--> 00:25:36

you. I love you all for the sake

00:25:36--> 00:25:37

of Allah.

00:25:38--> 00:25:40

Wallahi for nothing. I just love you for

00:25:40--> 00:25:40

the sake of

00:25:42--> 00:25:42

Allah.

00:25:43--> 00:25:44

You're my brothers and I love you and

00:25:44--> 00:25:46

Allah destined that I come and see you

00:25:46--> 00:25:48

tonight and I love you for the sake

00:25:48--> 00:25:49

of Allah.

00:25:51--> 00:25:52

Before

00:25:53--> 00:25:53

to

00:25:54--> 00:25:54

see

00:25:55--> 00:25:56

you.

00:26:00--> 00:26:02

The attribute of mercy.

00:26:03--> 00:26:05

The attribute of mercy we needed

00:26:06--> 00:26:07

at this time and age.

00:26:08--> 00:26:12

We're becoming so harsh with one another. We're

00:26:12--> 00:26:15

becoming so harsh with our families.

00:26:16--> 00:26:18

And if we actualize

00:26:18--> 00:26:20

the name of Allah, the

00:26:21--> 00:26:22

name of Allah,

00:26:23--> 00:26:25

and the attribute of mercy.

00:26:27--> 00:26:29

I'm telling you, this can resolve

00:26:29--> 00:26:31

a lot of conflicts in our lives.

00:26:32--> 00:26:33

This can help

00:26:34--> 00:26:35

us be a better community,

00:26:37--> 00:26:38

be better Muslims.

00:26:38--> 00:26:40

This can be a way for us to

00:26:40--> 00:26:41

unite

00:26:41--> 00:26:42

on the truth

00:26:42--> 00:26:44

in order to serve the deen of Allah,

00:26:44--> 00:26:47

especially us living here in a predominant non

00:26:47--> 00:26:48

Muslim community.

00:26:49--> 00:26:50

We need to be together,

00:26:51--> 00:26:53

and the only way we can be together

00:26:54--> 00:26:54

is we

00:26:55--> 00:26:56

see that mercy

00:26:57--> 00:26:59

in our lives when we realize it, when

00:26:59--> 00:27:00

we recognize it.

00:27:04--> 00:27:06

Subhanallah, the only name

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

Allah

00:27:08--> 00:27:09

names

00:27:10--> 00:27:11

a chapter after

00:27:13--> 00:27:15

Ar Rahman. Don't we have a chapter called

00:27:15--> 00:27:16

Ar Rahman? Yeah.

00:27:17--> 00:27:17

Ar Rahman.

00:27:19--> 00:27:21

Also, this name Ar Rahman,

00:27:23--> 00:27:27

Allah made it equal to his proper name.

00:27:27--> 00:27:28

What is the proper name?

00:27:29--> 00:27:30

Allah.

00:27:35--> 00:27:36

A widow.

00:27:37--> 00:27:39

Call me Allah or call me

00:27:40--> 00:27:42

what? Ar Rahman. He made it equal to

00:27:42--> 00:27:43

that name.

00:27:45--> 00:27:45

Also,

00:27:46--> 00:27:47

there is a ban

00:27:47--> 00:27:48

for us

00:27:49--> 00:27:50

to name ourselves

00:27:50--> 00:27:51

Rahman

00:27:51--> 00:27:52

or Rahman.

00:27:54--> 00:27:55

We may call

00:27:56--> 00:27:58

ourselves or our children Rahim,

00:27:59--> 00:28:01

but Rahman knew.

00:28:02--> 00:28:04

And imagine the only one

00:28:05--> 00:28:07

in history who transgressed

00:28:07--> 00:28:08

that rule

00:28:08--> 00:28:09

was Musaileema.

00:28:11--> 00:28:12

He called himself what?

00:28:17--> 00:28:18

But, but subhanallah,

00:28:20--> 00:28:21

how do we know Musaileema?

00:28:21--> 00:28:23

Musailema what? Alkadah.

00:28:24--> 00:28:24

The liar.

00:28:26--> 00:28:28

Although his name is not the liar, but,

00:28:28--> 00:28:31

subhanallah, look at this name now this is

00:28:31--> 00:28:32

title the liar

00:28:39--> 00:28:42

The attribute of Rahma, and this is actually

00:28:42--> 00:28:43

what differentiator

00:28:43--> 00:28:45

Rahman from Rahim.

00:28:49--> 00:28:50

When Allah

00:28:51--> 00:28:53

wills, whenever he wills, he is Rahim.

00:28:53--> 00:28:54

But Rahman

00:28:55--> 00:28:56

is

00:28:56--> 00:28:57

an attribute

00:28:57--> 00:28:58

of the essence,

00:29:00--> 00:29:01

an attribute of the essence.

00:29:03--> 00:29:03

And

00:29:04--> 00:29:06

for you to really appreciate

00:29:08--> 00:29:09

the attribute of mercy

00:29:11--> 00:29:12

pertaining to Allah

00:29:14--> 00:29:15

You need to realize

00:29:16--> 00:29:17

that he doesn't need you.

00:29:18--> 00:29:21

Normally, I may become merciful to you because

00:29:21--> 00:29:22

I want something from you.

00:29:23--> 00:29:26

But Allah doesn't need us, yet he's merciful

00:29:26--> 00:29:26

to us.

00:29:27--> 00:29:29

Look at this verse.

00:29:34--> 00:29:36

Who owns what's in the heavens and what's

00:29:36--> 00:29:36

in the earth?

00:29:37--> 00:29:38

What is the answer?

00:29:46--> 00:29:47

Look at this now.

00:29:47--> 00:29:48

He mandated

00:29:49--> 00:29:52

when he obliged himself to be merciful.

00:29:53--> 00:29:54

You know,

00:29:57--> 00:29:58

Or

00:30:07--> 00:30:07

Likewise, Allah

00:30:10--> 00:30:12

mandated mercy upon himself.

00:30:13--> 00:30:14

Muslim.

00:30:23--> 00:30:24

Hadith

00:30:36--> 00:30:37

He wrote a book

00:30:38--> 00:30:40

which is in the preserved tablet. What is

00:30:40--> 00:30:41

written in that book?

00:30:49--> 00:30:49

My mercy

00:30:50--> 00:30:51

overrides my anger.

00:30:53--> 00:30:54

Imagine Allah wrote this.

00:30:55--> 00:30:56

My mercy will always

00:30:57--> 00:30:58

override my anger,

00:30:59--> 00:31:01

brothers and sisters in Islam.

00:31:02--> 00:31:04

And, you know, there is a a beautiful

00:31:04--> 00:31:05

concept here, which is,

00:31:06--> 00:31:07

so beautiful.

00:31:09--> 00:31:11

You know, when we see the kings and

00:31:11--> 00:31:12

the rulers

00:31:12--> 00:31:14

of this world, when they,

00:31:14--> 00:31:17

you know, win election and

00:31:17--> 00:31:18

and they

00:31:19--> 00:31:19

assume

00:31:20--> 00:31:20

power,

00:31:21--> 00:31:24

they normally have something called integration like we

00:31:24--> 00:31:26

have in America. You know, the integration day

00:31:26--> 00:31:28

that the president becomes what?

00:31:28--> 00:31:30

Have you ever seen these integrations,

00:31:30--> 00:31:31

the celebrations,

00:31:32--> 00:31:33

the army, the marching, and

00:31:34--> 00:31:36

you know, basically, the guy is sending a

00:31:36--> 00:31:38

message to everybody, because he just, you know,

00:31:38--> 00:31:40

ripped off election or won election.

00:31:41--> 00:31:44

Obviously, he has some, you know, opponents.

00:31:44--> 00:31:47

He's basically tell them letting them know, listen,

00:31:47--> 00:31:48

I'm strong, guys.

00:31:48--> 00:31:50

Nobody come near me.

00:31:51--> 00:31:52

Imagine this, when Allah

00:31:54--> 00:31:55

created the creation,

00:31:56--> 00:31:57

including us,

00:31:58--> 00:32:00

the name he chose

00:32:01--> 00:32:01

to rise

00:32:02--> 00:32:02

above

00:32:03--> 00:32:03

the throne.

00:32:04--> 00:32:05

Which name?

00:32:12--> 00:32:14

The most merciful rose above the throne.

00:32:15--> 00:32:17

I'm gonna be merciful to you.

00:32:17--> 00:32:19

Don't be afraid of me.

00:32:19--> 00:32:21

I'm gonna be merciful to you.

00:32:22--> 00:32:24

This is how beautiful this name is, brothers

00:32:24--> 00:32:26

and sisters in Islam,

00:32:26--> 00:32:28

and the attribute of mercy.

00:32:31--> 00:32:31

And,

00:32:32--> 00:32:32

Rasul

00:32:35--> 00:32:37

The best of the teachers

00:32:37--> 00:32:38

always seizes

00:32:38--> 00:32:39

opportunities

00:32:41--> 00:32:44

to teach the Ummah about Allah Subhanahu Wa

00:32:44--> 00:32:44

Ta'ala.

00:32:46--> 00:32:47

Post one of the battles

00:32:48--> 00:32:50

according to Hadith al Bukhary, Hadith Omar Ibn

00:32:50--> 00:32:51

Khattab

00:32:52--> 00:32:52

the prophet

00:32:53--> 00:32:54

was standing with his companions,

00:32:56--> 00:32:58

but his eyes was busy

00:32:58--> 00:32:59

with a mother

00:33:00--> 00:33:01

who lost her baby,

00:33:02--> 00:33:05

a mother who is actually a prisoner of

00:33:05--> 00:33:05

war,

00:33:06--> 00:33:09

who had a baby, but she cannot find

00:33:09--> 00:33:09

her baby.

00:33:11--> 00:33:13

So you can imagine, you know, a battlefield,

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

and

00:33:14--> 00:33:16

and you're going to have your infant,

00:33:16--> 00:33:19

your your your baby, and you're a mother.

00:33:19--> 00:33:22

So she's going crazy looking for her baby.

00:33:24--> 00:33:27

Finally, she was able to allocate the baby.

00:33:27--> 00:33:28

She grabs the baby,

00:33:29--> 00:33:31

and you can imagine now a scene of

00:33:31--> 00:33:33

love and compassion.

00:33:33--> 00:33:34

You know?

00:33:35--> 00:33:35

A mother

00:33:36--> 00:33:37

who loved her baby.

00:33:41--> 00:33:41

Then immediately,

00:33:42--> 00:33:42

the prophet

00:33:44--> 00:33:46

looked at his companions, and he said to

00:33:46--> 00:33:46

them,

00:33:55--> 00:33:58

Do you expect this mother at any time

00:33:59--> 00:34:01

to throw her baby in fire?

00:34:03--> 00:34:05

No way after this scene. Look at this

00:34:05--> 00:34:06

now.

00:34:13--> 00:34:15

Allah is more merciful to you than this

00:34:15--> 00:34:16

mother to her baby.

00:36:33--> 00:36:36

Respected brother and sister. Inshallah, we will, pray

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

Isha

00:36:37--> 00:36:37

after

00:36:38--> 00:36:39

Zaida's conclusion.

00:36:39--> 00:36:42

I won't chastise you. Inshallah, we'll make it.

00:36:42--> 00:36:43

Inshallah.

00:36:53--> 00:36:54

One day, the,

00:36:56--> 00:36:57

the Bedouin,

00:36:57--> 00:36:59

again, we go back to the Bedouins,

00:36:59--> 00:37:01

who urinated in the Masjid.

00:37:03--> 00:37:05

Imagine some Bedouin came from the desert,

00:37:07--> 00:37:10

and he decided to urinate in the masjid.

00:37:11--> 00:37:13

Of course, you know, you really have to

00:37:13--> 00:37:15

look at the situation here. The masjid of

00:37:15--> 00:37:15

the prophet

00:37:16--> 00:37:18

did not have carpets or rugs or was

00:37:18--> 00:37:19

sand, dirt.

00:37:20--> 00:37:22

So for him, you know, even he when

00:37:22--> 00:37:24

he was asked why did you do that,

00:37:24--> 00:37:26

he said, listen. I you know, for me,

00:37:26--> 00:37:28

there is no big difference. This place is

00:37:28--> 00:37:29

just has some walls.

00:37:30--> 00:37:33

In any rate, the companions, of course, of

00:37:33--> 00:37:34

the prophet

00:37:34--> 00:37:35

rebuked him.

00:37:36--> 00:37:37

The prophet

00:37:38--> 00:37:41

treated him with mercy. Let us remove

00:37:42--> 00:37:44

just bring a bucket of water and pour

00:37:44--> 00:37:46

it on the urine and just leave him

00:37:46--> 00:37:47

alone. Let him finish even.

00:37:49--> 00:37:51

This bed win came to the prophet

00:37:52--> 00:37:53

and he

00:37:54--> 00:37:56

made a very interesting statement.

00:37:57--> 00:37:58

He said

00:38:12--> 00:38:14

accept you urinating in the masjid. But this

00:38:14--> 00:38:15

one, no.

00:38:16--> 00:38:18

This one, we're not gonna buy it from

00:38:18--> 00:38:18

from you.

00:38:19--> 00:38:20

He said to him,

00:38:22--> 00:38:22

you confine

00:38:23--> 00:38:24

Allah's mercy

00:38:24--> 00:38:26

into just 2 of us.

00:38:26--> 00:38:28

When Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala says,

00:38:43--> 00:38:44

the grand

00:38:44--> 00:38:45

grandson

00:38:45--> 00:38:45

of

00:38:46--> 00:38:48

Omar Al Khattab. He used to make this

00:38:48--> 00:38:49

dua often.

00:38:57--> 00:39:00

Oh, Allah. I know due to my shortcomings

00:39:01--> 00:39:02

and my sins and my

00:39:04--> 00:39:05

not doing very well.

00:39:06--> 00:39:08

I don't qualify to receive your mercy.

00:39:14--> 00:39:15

But I know for a fact that your

00:39:15--> 00:39:18

mercy will encompass me.

00:39:20--> 00:39:22

Because you said in the

00:39:25--> 00:39:27

Quran, my mercy encompasses

00:39:27--> 00:39:28

everything.

00:39:37--> 00:39:39

Let your mercy encompass me,

00:39:40--> 00:39:42

the merciful of all mercifuls.

00:39:45--> 00:39:46

How can we

00:39:47--> 00:39:47

actualize

00:39:49--> 00:39:49

Ismailahir

00:39:50--> 00:39:50

Rahman?

00:39:51--> 00:39:52

How can we do?

00:39:53--> 00:39:54

How can we do

00:39:55--> 00:39:57

for those two names tonight?

00:39:58--> 00:40:01

The first thing brothers and sisters in Islam,

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

don't

00:40:03--> 00:40:04

ever

00:40:04--> 00:40:05

ever

00:40:05--> 00:40:07

give up on Allah's mercy.

00:40:08--> 00:40:10

And I wanna tell you, this is one

00:40:10--> 00:40:12

of the gateways of shaitan

00:40:13--> 00:40:16

because himself given up on Allah's mercy.

00:40:17--> 00:40:19

Some of you may hear this again.

00:40:20--> 00:40:21

Iblis,

00:40:21--> 00:40:22

that is the name of,

00:40:23--> 00:40:23

shaitan,

00:40:24--> 00:40:25

is derived

00:40:25--> 00:40:26

from the noun

00:40:27--> 00:40:27

Albalas.

00:40:35--> 00:40:39

Means despair. So his name actually is derivative,

00:40:39--> 00:40:41

originates from despair.

00:40:42--> 00:40:45

Lucifer, please, before the shaitan thing.

00:40:47--> 00:40:49

For sure, the police is gonna come to

00:40:49--> 00:40:51

you. Come on. You're too sinful.

00:40:51--> 00:40:53

I don't think you have a chance.

00:40:53--> 00:40:56

Just stick with the dunya. You know, enjoy

00:40:56--> 00:40:58

the dunya at least. No. Don't do that.

00:41:10--> 00:41:13

Tell my slaves who transgress

00:41:15--> 00:41:17

don't ever give up on Allah his mercy.

00:41:17--> 00:41:18

Allah his mercy

00:41:19--> 00:41:22

is for there for you. Allah will forgive

00:41:22--> 00:41:23

all the sins.

00:41:35--> 00:41:38

If you come to me with earth filled

00:41:38--> 00:41:38

with sins,

00:41:40--> 00:41:41

I can forgive your sins.

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

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala can forgive it for

00:42:02--> 00:42:04

you so you yourself

00:42:05--> 00:42:05

never

00:42:06--> 00:42:08

give up when Allah has mercy

00:42:08--> 00:42:11

that is why brothers and sisters in islam

00:42:11--> 00:42:11

immediately

00:42:12--> 00:42:14

as soon as you sin as soon as

00:42:14--> 00:42:14

you

00:42:15--> 00:42:15

commit

00:42:16--> 00:42:18

something that allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is not

00:42:18--> 00:42:20

pleased with rush

00:42:37--> 00:42:38

Secondly,

00:42:38--> 00:42:40

the second thing now we're talking about how

00:42:40--> 00:42:42

to actualize this name.

00:42:43--> 00:42:45

You should not

00:42:46--> 00:42:48

let people despair in Allah's mercy,

00:42:49--> 00:42:51

especially if you are a speaker like myself,

00:42:51--> 00:42:52

if you are an imam,

00:42:53--> 00:42:56

you should always try to give people hope

00:42:56--> 00:42:58

in Allah's mercy.

00:42:58--> 00:43:00

You're not entitled

00:43:00--> 00:43:02

to let people despair

00:43:02--> 00:43:03

from Allah's mercy.

00:43:07--> 00:43:09

There were 2 brothers from Bani Israel.

00:43:10--> 00:43:11

One of them used to be righteous and

00:43:11--> 00:43:14

pious living on the top of the mountain,

00:43:14--> 00:43:16

and the other one was living

00:43:17--> 00:43:18

in the valley.

00:43:19--> 00:43:20

The one living on the top of the

00:43:20--> 00:43:21

mountain was

00:43:21--> 00:43:22

strict, was

00:43:23--> 00:43:24

righteous and pious,

00:43:25--> 00:43:26

but the one who was living in the

00:43:26--> 00:43:29

valley was off and on, like we say,

00:43:29--> 00:43:31

wishy washy, you know.

00:43:31--> 00:43:32

So,

00:43:32--> 00:43:34

he came to see his brother. He came

00:43:34--> 00:43:35

to visit his brother.

00:43:36--> 00:43:38

And he happens to arrive when his brother

00:43:38--> 00:43:39

was sinning

00:43:40--> 00:43:42

he saw him actually committing a sin

00:43:43--> 00:43:44

look what he said

00:43:48--> 00:43:50

he said to his brother by Allah

00:43:51--> 00:43:53

Allah will never forgive you

00:43:53--> 00:43:54

Allah

00:43:54--> 00:43:57

revealed to the prophet this is Bani Israel

00:43:57--> 00:43:58

at the time

00:44:01--> 00:44:03

who's taken oath on me.

00:44:04--> 00:44:05

Let him know

00:44:05--> 00:44:07

that I have forgiven the sins of his

00:44:07--> 00:44:09

brother because of what he said,

00:44:10--> 00:44:12

and he needs to start working over because

00:44:12--> 00:44:14

of that statement.

00:44:14--> 00:44:16

All what he done in the past is

00:44:17--> 00:44:17

in

00:44:21--> 00:44:23

vain now. You know, Hadith, the man who

00:44:23--> 00:44:25

killed 99 souls.

00:44:25--> 00:44:28

Right? It was originally 99. Right?

00:44:28--> 00:44:30

But he went to this man who looks

00:44:30--> 00:44:31

like a scholar.

00:44:32--> 00:44:35

But he doesn't know the names and attributes

00:44:35--> 00:44:36

of Allah.

00:44:36--> 00:44:38

You know, not everyone who is a devout

00:44:38--> 00:44:41

worshipper can have access to that knowledge, brothers

00:44:41--> 00:44:43

and sisters in Islam. So he asked him

00:44:43--> 00:44:45

this question, do I have a chance?

00:44:45--> 00:44:47

He said, no way.

00:44:48--> 00:44:49

99 souls.

00:44:49--> 00:44:51

Come on. I mean, not even smart. You

00:44:51--> 00:44:53

know, that's not even smart to say that.

00:44:55--> 00:44:55

We

00:44:56--> 00:44:56

have a city in,

00:44:57--> 00:45:00

in America, which we call Trump City,

00:45:00--> 00:45:02

called Atlantic City.

00:45:03--> 00:45:05

And this is a true story. The brothers

00:45:05--> 00:45:06

told me about it.

00:45:07--> 00:45:07

So

00:45:08--> 00:45:09

it looks like there was, like, a fitna

00:45:09--> 00:45:10

in the masjid.

00:45:12--> 00:45:13

So, of course, when there is a fitna,

00:45:13--> 00:45:15

always you get those 2 groups.

00:45:16--> 00:45:18

So the imam already sided with 1 of

00:45:18--> 00:45:20

the groups. You know, he's already.

00:45:21--> 00:45:23

So he was delivering Khotbat al Jumwa, and

00:45:23--> 00:45:25

he's already, you know, like,

00:45:26--> 00:45:26

tacitly,

00:45:27--> 00:45:27

implicitly,

00:45:28--> 00:45:30

already, Birnik Allam, Ali, Yani

00:45:31--> 00:45:32

is Yani

00:45:32--> 00:45:35

is talking about the other group. So one

00:45:35--> 00:45:36

of them stood up.

00:45:36--> 00:45:38

You know? He didn't say a word, but

00:45:38--> 00:45:40

he pulled a gun out,

00:45:40--> 00:45:41

and he did like this to him.

00:45:45--> 00:45:46

He didn't even talk because,

00:45:47--> 00:45:49

I guess he assumed that if he speaks,

00:45:49--> 00:45:51

he's gonna be nullified, but

00:45:52--> 00:45:53

if he holds a gun, that's

00:45:54--> 00:45:56

that's okay. But look at the katib. He

00:45:56--> 00:45:57

was smart. You know what he said?

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

Right away.

00:46:03--> 00:46:04

This is a serious business. I mean, some

00:46:04--> 00:46:06

guy killed 99

00:46:06--> 00:46:08

souls, and you tell him you have no

00:46:08--> 00:46:09

chance?

00:46:10--> 00:46:12

So he he toppled the 100 that's

00:46:13--> 00:46:16

that's that's not smart even that's not but

00:46:16--> 00:46:17

look at the next man he said

00:46:18--> 00:46:19

what comes between you

00:46:20--> 00:46:20

and

00:46:20--> 00:46:22

and we know this man ended up in

00:46:22--> 00:46:26

somehow although with the heinous ness of of

00:46:26--> 00:46:26

of killing,

00:46:27--> 00:46:29

but Allah will find a way for him

00:46:29--> 00:46:31

that he will ransom him on the day

00:46:31--> 00:46:32

of judgment from those people.

00:46:33--> 00:46:34

Number 1,

00:46:34--> 00:46:35

we should

00:46:35--> 00:46:38

not give up ourselves on Allah's mercy,

00:46:39--> 00:46:40

nor we should

00:46:41--> 00:46:43

invite people to give up in Allah's mercy.

00:46:43--> 00:46:45

Always give them a hope brothers and sisters

00:46:45--> 00:46:46

in Islam.

00:46:46--> 00:46:47

Finally,

00:46:47--> 00:46:50

insha'Allah, so we can pray a shout here.

00:46:55--> 00:46:56

Every

00:46:56--> 00:46:58

single name

00:46:58--> 00:46:59

has a servitude

00:47:00--> 00:47:01

attached to it.

00:47:09--> 00:47:12

Actualize it, you have to be merciful yourself.

00:47:22--> 00:47:24

If you want the 1 in the heaven

00:47:24--> 00:47:25

to be merciful to you, then you should

00:47:25--> 00:47:27

be merciful yourself to others.

00:47:33--> 00:47:36

Whoever does not show mercy to others is

00:47:36--> 00:47:38

not gonna be shown mercy by Allah.

00:47:39--> 00:47:40

Where

00:47:41--> 00:47:45

where can you display this mercy, reveal that

00:47:45--> 00:47:46

mercy? The first

00:47:47--> 00:47:49

place? Subhan Allah, your parents.

00:47:58--> 00:48:00

Your parents who have taken care of you.

00:48:01--> 00:48:04

Brothers and sisters in Islam, very unfortunate, many

00:48:04--> 00:48:05

Muslims now,

00:48:06--> 00:48:09

they treat their parents like a non Muslim

00:48:09--> 00:48:09

does.

00:48:10--> 00:48:10

They copycat

00:48:11--> 00:48:13

the Brits and the Americans

00:48:13--> 00:48:16

in treating their Muslim and treating their Muslim

00:48:16--> 00:48:16

parents.

00:48:17--> 00:48:17

No.

00:48:18--> 00:48:18

No.

00:48:24--> 00:48:26

May he lose. This is actually a dua.

00:48:26--> 00:48:28

Jibril made this dua, and the prophet said

00:48:28--> 00:48:30

Amin after him.

00:48:38--> 00:48:40

That you come to this world and you

00:48:40--> 00:48:42

find your 2 parents alive or one of

00:48:42--> 00:48:44

them, and you do not become your way

00:48:44--> 00:48:45

to gender,

00:48:45--> 00:48:47

that you do not use them. I wanna

00:48:47--> 00:48:49

use you to get to gender, father.

00:48:50--> 00:48:51

I wanna serve you.

00:48:53--> 00:48:53

Children,

00:48:55--> 00:48:56

when was the last time you told your

00:48:56--> 00:48:57

child I love you?

00:48:58--> 00:48:59

You know,

00:48:59--> 00:49:02

Children are a attraction now for the West,

00:49:02--> 00:49:04

especially Muslim children. Look what they are doing

00:49:04--> 00:49:06

to them in the public school.

00:49:06--> 00:49:09

The l b g t k w x

00:49:09--> 00:49:10

y z.

00:49:10--> 00:49:10

It's

00:49:11--> 00:49:13

a crazy world, what they are teachings.

00:49:14--> 00:49:17

You gotta show them their your love, brothers

00:49:17--> 00:49:19

and sisters, in Islam so that they are

00:49:19--> 00:49:19

not become

00:49:20--> 00:49:22

attractive to the other side.

00:49:23--> 00:49:25

You know, that beating up that we use

00:49:25--> 00:49:27

to, you know, entertain

00:49:27--> 00:49:28

and enjoy

00:49:30--> 00:49:32

where we come from is not gonna work

00:49:32--> 00:49:33

here.

00:49:33--> 00:49:34

So you have to

00:49:35--> 00:49:36

regarding

00:49:39--> 00:49:40

The

00:49:42--> 00:49:45

prophet one day he was sitting down,

00:49:46--> 00:49:49

and Al Hassan wal Hussain entered the room

00:49:50--> 00:49:52

and next to the prophet Sallallahu Alaihi Salam

00:49:52--> 00:49:53

was sending a companion,

00:49:54--> 00:49:55

who was known to be harsh.

00:49:58--> 00:50:00

Grabbed Al Hasil Al Hussein and he kissed

00:50:00--> 00:50:01

them.

00:50:04--> 00:50:05

And

00:50:05--> 00:50:06

said,

00:50:07--> 00:50:08

do you kiss your children?

00:50:10--> 00:50:13

Has some, you know, some crazy ideas. Like,

00:50:13--> 00:50:14

if you kiss your child, that means you're

00:50:14--> 00:50:15

not a man enough.

00:50:16--> 00:50:17

That's, you know,

00:50:19--> 00:50:20

said what?

00:50:21--> 00:50:24

By Allah, I have 10 children, 10 boys.

00:50:27--> 00:50:29

I never kissed any of them one day.

00:50:30--> 00:50:31

What did the prophet say to him?

00:50:41--> 00:50:43

What can I do if Allah has extracted

00:50:43--> 00:50:44

mercy out of your heart?

00:50:45--> 00:50:46

That you don't show

00:50:47--> 00:50:48

mercy and love to your children.

00:50:51--> 00:50:52

You know what is the divorce rate in

00:50:52--> 00:50:54

some Muslim world now? 65

00:50:56--> 00:50:57

percent. Allah.

00:50:57--> 00:50:58

Very sad.

00:50:59--> 00:51:01

And there is a chapter in the Quran

00:51:01--> 00:51:02

called the Talaq.

00:51:02--> 00:51:05

It talks about the Talaq, and towards the

00:51:05--> 00:51:07

end of it, it talks about the destruction

00:51:07--> 00:51:07

of nations.

00:51:09--> 00:51:10

A lot of people assume that there is

00:51:10--> 00:51:13

no connection between the 2. No. No. No.

00:51:13--> 00:51:13

No.

00:51:14--> 00:51:16

The problem begins at home.

00:51:17--> 00:51:20

Why? Because many of spouses forgot the foundation

00:51:21--> 00:51:23

upon which this relationship was founded.

00:51:35--> 00:51:35

Is love.

00:51:36--> 00:51:38

Baby, baby, love you.

00:51:38--> 00:51:40

Low eyes, black hair,

00:51:41--> 00:51:42

and normally disappears

00:51:43--> 00:51:44

after the 3rd month.

00:51:45--> 00:51:46

Good luck with that.

00:51:47--> 00:51:49

So what should come?

00:51:50--> 00:51:50

Rahma,

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

mercy.

00:51:53--> 00:51:53

Rahama,

00:51:54--> 00:51:54

Rahami,

00:51:55--> 00:51:57

have mercy on him. Have mercy on her.

00:51:58--> 00:52:00

Brothers and sisters in Islam, even with the

00:52:00--> 00:52:02

animals in clothing,

00:52:03--> 00:52:05

don't we know that there is a woman

00:52:05--> 00:52:07

who used to be a prostitute

00:52:08--> 00:52:09

who's gonna go to Jena

00:52:10--> 00:52:13

because she's showing mercy to what?

00:52:14--> 00:52:15

To a dog.

00:52:16--> 00:52:17

But now a lot of the people may

00:52:17--> 00:52:18

assume that

00:52:19--> 00:52:21

let me do what I wanna do with

00:52:21--> 00:52:23

my life and get 3, 4 dogs in

00:52:23--> 00:52:24

in the house

00:52:25--> 00:52:27

and give them water every day. No. No.

00:52:27--> 00:52:28

No. That's not how that's not how we

00:52:28--> 00:52:31

understand. The other side can be No. No.

00:52:31--> 00:52:33

No. No. What is meant here that this

00:52:33--> 00:52:35

because of this because of this act, Allah

00:52:35--> 00:52:38

guided her to repent. And she became a

00:52:38--> 00:52:39

good Muslim, and she died.

00:52:40--> 00:52:42

That's how we understand it, but not,

00:52:43--> 00:52:44

the way that we understand.

00:52:46--> 00:52:48

I love you all for the sake of

00:52:48--> 00:52:48

Allah.

00:52:49--> 00:52:50

I'm blessed to be with,

00:52:51--> 00:52:52

I have known,

00:52:52--> 00:52:54

brother Ali Khan for a while.

00:52:55--> 00:52:56

May Allah reward

00:52:57--> 00:52:57

him.

00:52:59--> 00:53:01

What I love about this brother is always

00:53:01--> 00:53:01

he,

00:53:02--> 00:53:05

he treats us with the, always with the

00:53:05--> 00:53:06

books, and I love books. You know, I

00:53:06--> 00:53:08

wrote 12 so far.

00:53:09--> 00:53:11

My goal is to write at least 20

00:53:11--> 00:53:12

before I die inshallah.

00:53:13--> 00:53:14

For me inshallah.

00:53:16--> 00:53:17

They are all available, by the way, in

00:53:17--> 00:53:18

00:53:49--> 00:53:51

Alhamdulillah. It was a great, a great, a

00:53:51--> 00:53:53

great, and a chance to see him, to

00:53:53--> 00:53:55

sit with him. This is our honor, Allah.

00:53:55--> 00:53:55

We

00:53:56--> 00:53:58

ask Allah to bless him and his life

00:53:58--> 00:54:00

and his family. And we ask Allah to

00:54:00--> 00:54:03

bless all of you. Just in few minutes
