Bismillah was not the was salam ala Rasulillah ala alihi wa sahbihi wa salam, I want to share with you a personal story that was very, very intense when I was at the University of Windsor, when I was doing my engineering degree. In one of the classes, known as deformable bodies, there was a midterm. That was worth 40% of our final grade. I was studying very, very, very hard for the class. I was so ready for the class. And I was leaving the library, the lady library at about roughly 10:11pm at night. As I was leaving, one of the brothers was entering the library. So he saw me he said, magic, are you ready for tomorrow? I said, Yes, Inshallah, I'm ready. He's a girl, I'm so nervous, I don't
think I'm going to do well, I think I'm gonna fail. And he may not been someone that really follows up with homework and so on. So I said, You know what, I'm gonna come with you. I'm gonna go along with you to the library, and I'll help you study inshallah. So part of it as perhaps reward but another thing we all have to keep note of, to master something, teach it to master something, teach it. So I said, if I were to help him, then I will be even more prepared for my test. So then I went, and I helped him out, help them out. And fortunately, we kind of lost track of time. We left the library at 4am in the morning, when we left this late, I told the brother, why don't you sleep over
my place? Because I live right next to the university. He said, Are you sure as they I'm sure? 100%. So we went up to our house, we went to the basement, I set up a mattress for him. I slept also in the basement. And he asked me what time should we put the alarm at? The exam started at 9am ends at 11am. So what time if it's, let's say a 10 minute walk? What time should I put the alarm?
Raise your hand.
9am Eight, eight, like wake up fresh enough, right. Any other options answers?
A 39? Three, I'll be a little bit because the exam starts at nine. Right? So that's why he says about a 36 federal
say 6am solid federal is like Okay, I think we're going to either wake up right? I'm lucky and shallow wake up.
He puts in the alarm. I would no exaggeration. He comes
I don't know what time is it? I'm sleeping. He comes to me.
Magic. Get up. And the SP it's 10:30am nikla. Will love Rose 1030 in the morning. I said oh my goodness. See, I'm like, Oh my god. So I said I'm gonna I'm gonna go I'm gonna go right now. Do you know where to go? I'm just gonna run is the girl. I'm not going
like What do you mean? It's like bro doctors. Nope.
I'm gonna go to some doctor. Just Allah here, brother. So and So Dr. SO and SO. Hi, G please. My stomach hurts. Give me a doctor's note. That's all I'm doing. You go. I'm like, I'm like I think I can do in 30 minutes. So I get ready. He's like, bro, there's no way. I was thinking about it. 10 minute walk. I got about 20 minutes. Can you do it? Can I not do it? Then I kind of broke down. I don't think I can do it.
So then I started thinking this whole doctor's note thing. How much does it cost? $20.
Even though we have health insurance in Canada, yes. $20 Okay. So I was thinking like, should I go for it or not? So the and the brother left and I was so nervous. I can't believe this. This never happened in my life before. I missed the exam. I was so ready. Now I have a zero. This is a 40% of my final grade. What should I do? Is it helpful to get a doctor's note?
Is it hilarious? I was going through is it Khaled is it haram Yet Allah? What should I do? I was nervous. I was anxious. My scholarship is on the on the line. It's okay. You might get a D but doesn't mean I'm maybe gonna get support a grant or so maybe the professor will be disappointed my mom, my dad. What should I do? Doctors, no doctor is not a talent because my life is on the line. Yes, my life is on the line that my life is not on the line. I'm lying. That's not what should I do? What should I do?
I sent so this way said I'm going to try no joke. I said I'm going to try to Google search the life out of it for one person to say it's halal. So I went to a shopping. When is it okay to lie? What if I slept in and I had an exam? Amager please help me chef, please know, until I remembered one of the mushy who he used to give us Friday foodbuzz So I called him. I said chicks on so Salam Alikum walaikum salam, she I need your help. I told them the whole story that I just shared with you. So I said Is it okay if I go to the doctor and get a doctor's note
Just so the weight of the midterm and it can be redundant. And let's say three days later, I can reschedule the exam. They do that in university. He said again, is your life on the line?
said no.
Is the professor your spouse to grow the love between, you know?
Is this a war? I'm like wealthier Kuffar. No, no, no, no. Are you trying to reconcile between people? No, he said, since you don't have any of these cases, you cannot lie.
So I said in the delay when they hear Rajaram, this is a disaster. So I go to my computer, and I start typing the email to my professor, before I actually put this lecture together. I went in search for the professor, many This was long, long time ago. So I looked him up. He was a very tough professor. So he's going to see what people say about him. And the top statement or comment about an tough grader. And I knew that and that's why I was even Ultra terrified. Like Russia is zero engineering, people have no rough math. One plus one is two. There's no one plus one plus a little bit of Rama there isn't. May Allah help every spouse who's an engineer, married to an engineer. I
mean,
may Allah protect us anyhow. So then I emailed him, and I told the professor's Hello, Mr. So and So. I want to be very honest with you. I was so prepared for the exam. You know me from class, I was so ready. I was leaving the library at about 11pm. I saw this guy and I mentioned his name. I saw this guy walked into the library. And I said, You know what, let me help you out. We still beforehand, then I don't sleep over my place. He slept over my place, then I don't put the alarm for failure. And I didn't say that for Fajr. Okay, so I told the whole story. Then I said, we slept in. We woke up at 1030 in the morning. He told me he's gonna get a doctor's note. That it's okay. Okay, that was
not he was not the only one. Okay. All right. And he told me that he got a doctor's note. And I called my shake. My chef. So I called my Imam I shake and I asked him if I can lie in the situation, get a doctor's note. And he told me that it's not one of the three cases where I can lie. Someone somehow a young man, right, it's typing an email. And I really wish that you understand my situation. Thank you so much, and press send.
Then I'm like, what was that? Right? What was that give him a HELOC. I gave this the doctor so and so a lecture. So I was waiting, no response. I got so nervous Hallas. Now he can't get a doctor's note on a different what? day it is very difficult not to convince our sick yesterday, but I couldn't go. Then you have to don't have to hook her up. So I waited a day or two. And I was so nervous. Until one time I was walking on campus. And then a professor, another one. Walks in sees me he was walking towards me. And he saw me he's like,
what was that?
Like, what was what is another professor?
He's like, what was that? And who is the Muslim? Brother? What was what? He said the email that you sent. I'm like, How do you know about it? He's like, the whole department knows about it. I said really? Is that a good thing or a bad thing? He said, You're gonna hear the news. You're lucky man. Dr. So so he appreciate the emails so much. You've never seen anything like that before. And you know how tough he is. But he's willing to put the weight of the midterm on to the final exam. So you know, make up for you.
But you have to put the weight of the midterm 40% on to the final finals. 55% So my final exam is 95% 5% was assignments. And I'm like in the Lahaina, Leroy John was born to Al Hamdulillah. So I started studying and I left all my other classes focusing on the final examination, studying working hard your, your 95% you can't mess up and then Hamdulillah I end up with an A plus by the will of Allah Thailand, Thailand. hamdulillah other classes I messed up. Brother What does this have to do with today's session
Alhamdulillah was saved us was saying the truth was saved us was a suit, saying the truth before the lie subhanho wa taala. And sometimes things like that are shared to encourage us all including myself to remember my my good old days. And to remember Allah saved you imagine, so stick to it. Allah will always save you in sha Allah. This was an appetizer. This was the lettuce in a huge main dish, an entree that you're about to hear in sha Allah, not from us, but from the greatest of generations that ever walked on Earth. In the ninth year after emigration, after the hatred of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam from Mecca to Medina. The Prophet was about how old nine
theoriginal he was how old approximately roughly
close he died 11th year early in South Sudan. So he is 61 because he died at 63 So about 61 years old. Now if you repeat you're not
That was after the conquest of Makkah. Islam was spreading very much Allahumma barik Islam was spreading so much so that the Roman Empire started to get nervous Allah wack about the Roman Empire. Were getting concerned. So much so that one of the narrations saying that the Roman Empire sought to assemble a massive army 10s and 10s of 1000s to go finish the Muslims once and for all. Alas, we can't handle this too much pressure. Let's face the Muslims head on. They're growing. Let's end them.
So this is one of the narrations. Now before I proceed, I want to go and talk based on the hadith of cat even Malik Radi Allahu Anhu scabbed. Let me tell you about cab. Cab is a grand companion cab the American or the Allahu Anhu. He's telling you the story after he became an old animal like he's really old, so old, he even lost his eyesight. That was many years ago. He's sharing the story with us, isn't the * Buhari. And then he says back in the day, when this news was coming, rasool Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam pay close attention. He never proceeds in a battle and tell people that destination he does not tell people where he's going. Get ready. There's a battle. Get ready.
There's a fight.
No one knows the destination. Strategic matters. Maybe someone will convey leak information. Gab said except for this one. Why? He said because the Romans basically army was massive 10s and 10s of 1000s. One. The weather was extremely hot. It was the summer the heat of Arabia to I mean three, the destination it was a long trip. It's not like we know Mecca, Medina, Ohio desert, no weird traveling, we're talking hundreds of miles for there was not much rain and not much water. Five, we did not have enough rides equal to the number of soldiers, Yanni 10 soldiers would share one ride every hour, they switch and he would walk it was very difficult, not just that, cabin emetic says it
was so difficult because that was the season where we harvest the fruit and so on. That's when we take off the dates from the palm trees and things of that sort. That's when we collect rent. Anybody here who has a parent that owns an apartment building? You don't ever dare to tell them? Baba, let's go on May 1, because that's when I collect rent. Right? I'll go middle of the month. You will never tell an accountant. You want to go to Orlando on April. No, that's tax season. That's how I make my money. So it was so difficult because that's when they made their money. And that was the time where they had to leave. So everything is at risk from the dunya perspective. And Catherine medic says, I
have never ever ever missed any battle in my life with a Prophet SAW Salem. Not one battle I missed, except one. Well, I have it I have an excuse for it. The Battle of better the Battle of better was not initially about all that was scheduled. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was going after a year Quraysh the caravan of Qureshi of Abu Sufyan. Things didn't work out, it turned into a battle, and no one who did not show up was admonished Fair enough. They said hold on, but I tended something before the Prophet came to Mecca. What was that? They actually aka the pledge of allegiance of an AKA What's that? That was the pledge which the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam
and the people in Medina gave one another that we're now willing to host you on Mohamed Salah Salem. It was a very small group of people kept said I was one of that group. So he said to me, to be honest, to me, it's more beloved than better. That's why he said, this is more beloved to me than better. Though he said Though most people talk about better because it's more famous. So then he continues, he's telling you Subhanallah what he's going through. He said but in this battle, rasool Allah is Allah Allah has every time some Allahu alayhi wa sallam, he told the people we have to go to this battle, we have to go to taboo, what taboo for those who don't know the name, because what
Tabuk
What is he saying? He said the Muslims are getting ready in large numbers. So much so that if someone does not attend the RME, no one will notice because there was no D one was the one there was no one taking names. Okay, check in
yourself, okay, and there wasn't. So the only way someone can know that someone didn't show up is from Revelation. Did you get that? It has to be way from Allah that so and so did not show up. So then what did he say company medical or the Allah one? He says from my case, when people are getting ready and I think I want you to think of a camp everyone's like camp before you get ready for a camp. Right? You prepare the day before not a camp. You prepare a week, two weeks before you got to order stuff from Amazon a bottle of water flashlights batteries, or no tight some type of mattress or
Whatever because you're gonna camp. So he said what rasool Allah salAllahu alayhi wa sallam told that people get ready, people start getting ready purchasing stuff, ordering things. Is it for me, I said, You know what I'm gonna go, I'm gonna start doing my stuff for traffic to actually k at a Jahaz. I'm at home. So I started, you know, putting my plans together, I'm gonna get this in sha Allah, whatever. Then he goes, and he says for autos, yeah, well, I'm pretty sure Yeah. It's like you go into Amazon to buy something. Then you go on every other website, but Amazon, right? Or you go on Amazon or you go to every other product. What is this your suggested items for you based on
yesterday's research, right? Like, what is this? Right and something you don't need? So that he was just distracted? He would just like, You know what, not really putting so much effort into it for the SAT. If enough see an accordion alley, you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna do this tomorrow. Tomorrow. I got this all right. For them yesterday or tomorrow. I said, Man, I keep procrastinating. What's wrong with me? And he was so disappointed, said tomorrow. We'll work on it. Tomorrow. I'll work on it. He said until it was announced. Everyone was ready. Now the day of the camp, we're about to go to the car, get onto that van, you pack your stuff, and you load the car and travel. He's
like, I'm not even half ready. Not at all. So I said to myself, well, I'm actually Bucha as you say, I don't have anything ready. So I said, You know what, let them go. And I'll get an Uber.
Right, they can go and I will get ready. And he said, I was never I was never as rich and as strong as that day. Like that was my peak dunya like means of strength. Because he said to the point that never in my life that I own two cars, but they were two cattles Two camels, but this was the time they own two camels I don't know about you guys. That if you want to create a special for yourself right? Then someone has a car that goes to work and one car for the weekend Masha Allah Tabata kala right May Allah bless your wealth I'm gonna build alanine so he said I had so much money that I had two camels but he said he kept procrastinating no day one after the army has left so he said for
call to attach it has to be on all your money this one two days since now they're gone. I'll take care of everything very quickly. I'll pay off in quickly Amazon Prime you know overnight shipment No problem $35 order is not above 35 It's okay I'll pay the fee whatever the case may be. And one day passed by two days back passed by did cargo
for her though too bad and for salutely Elijah has I stopped getting ready and that was not done. So I said Tomorrow I will work on it. Tomorrow Tomorrow morning for sure. Next day comes and what happens from my project well I'm actually shader
happens this is the real example. This is how life works. How many times will lie Be honest with yourself in Ramadan? How many times the first day does it one you missed that one? It's like it's 2120 pages right? And then you go to the next day the shift is reading from just at number two okay, so only two days I think I got this handler I read Quran very well right it will climb very well right okay. Oh my god. Okay, I got this I got fifth day oh my god. 520 times five that's 100 pages 100 pages. So if I go on YouTube times to speed is He that's when you start going through? That's what we go through. Many of us media many of us right? So he said I kept procrastinating I kept
procrastinating until it was not possible for me to reach them in a way that I will join them in the battle. Philomena will be hard to swallow water Farhatullah Has Has everybody left. So he said even though I missed them, so I will not reach to the point that maybe I'll reach them on the way back. What caused him to I wanted to grow and he still didn't go. He went to be like, you know, late better than never. He said. So when I remained behind, and it was a long trip. And I would to leave and walk in Medina. Nobody knows what empty. Very few people are there. He said the two groups the two majority groups were either people accused of hypocrisy. people accused of hypocrisy, or people
who are old and Allah gave them their permission, let's say their handicap. They have a disability or severe sickness that he didn't go. So he said has any harder I got so disappointed myself. All the people laughed. He said about 80 plus people have so remained from the people who are perhaps accused of hypocrisy.
Scab said I was told after this whole thing was done. I was told that when the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam reached taboo he asked about me
you know, what did he say? No one thought that anyone will recognize who's present and who's not present like in Fiji one remember I said that there was no like attendance check. The he said I was told when he when we when rasool Allah is awesome arrived finally to tell book, he said a niqab masala Camus kava anybody knows we've carved this out for Colorado in Venice. selama one person from the mini cinema perhaps a relative of gab, Cydia rasool Allah, Oh prophet of Allah. I think I gotta tell you this hubba houbara Tao who another room
See elsewhere. He's busy with dunya he's a big shot. Now remember cuz he said, I got so wealthy. It's a big shot now he's so busy with materialistic stuff dunya he got fascinated by it. Now who went and defended a cab? What are the German? Or the German said this is called Shame on you for saying that about cat, then well as directs his attention to the Prophet, not to that man. And you know what's so amazing?
We know the one who defended we do not know the one who criticized
this out of respect. Maybe he repents, maybe he changed his ways. So they kept that name anonymous though they all know exactly who was that person Allahu Akbar. But then when I said this, am I called Shame on you for saying that Wallahi rasool Allah and Moran spoke to the Prophet defending cap. So they are also Allah man, I didn't know.
We don't know anything about cat except that he was a great man. He's wonderful. In our honorable individual, whether the Prophet sallallahu Sallam for a second, he remained silent. And one of the things you want to appreciate here is defending your brother and sister whenever they're being stabbed verbally, okay? Or so right in front of you, right? And backbiting and so on? Gossiping, et cetera, as a perhaps heard it before, and I share it again. Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Men the bad and the ugly. He belieber whoever defends their brother and sister when they're being back bitten right in front of them. Oh, you see this guy? You see this girl in a negative way
like that? And you defend them. Allah will never take you to Johanna. That's it for good forever. You will never go to *, Taka hula. And I mentioned that before what if someone says What if that person who defended eventually I know started slacking off and leaves Islam No, Allah will guide you for that moment you defended your brother and sister Allahu Akbar, as rewarding as it sounds, as what? As punishable it is to contribute. So you see both extremes of hope and fear. Someone chose to defend now that the battle take place for those that know the Sierra, was there a battle that took place with a large number of Muslims against the Romans?
Who knows what the book was their war? After all, that was their battle, no battle. After all, this Matthew as well. Matthew, how did the Muslims win or lose?
How would they win when there was no battle?
They did not meet so the Romans were terrified like these people traveled all the way here you see that? They went through the heat of the sun. They barely have money and they sacrificed almost the old Muslim men were there.
We're not facing these human beings.
We're not We're not there's no way there's impossible, led by the prophets of Allah and Mr. hain, we stay in our homes. So then the Muslims had that land free. Right? And then the other ones besides the Roman Empire, they're like, bro, if the Roman Empire didn't face them, we're not other kofod around Arabia. We're not going to face them. Right. So rasool Allah is Allah, Allah, Allah and say, sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,
when he eventually finished the camping in caribou, and now he's heading back to where we're back home, which is Medina, the news came up, there's a guy who like sends the mail but it was one of the horsemen that goes perhaps very fast, says the rasool Allah SallAllahu Sallam is now returning. So Academy Malik, he said, When I heard the news that now the prophet is coming back now can remember he did not go and he was so ready, and he has no legitimate excuse. He said, I start thinking of every good excuse, I can give as a developing like a machine like a laboratory. What should I say? What is okay, my wife was pregnant. I think that's, I haven't had a death in the family. Yes,
definitely the family. And then he will understand why he did not join what happens. Many, many of us go through that many of us go through that. There's a project you're supposed to submit. And you're late for the project. What do you do? I think some of us they think shaitan comes and he whispers to you. I got a flat tire. Stanley had a flat tire. Okay, hospital flat tire, flat tire. Oh, now it's on zoom on by Comcast got disconnected. Yes, Comcast got disconnected. And you thinking about it. When you arrive late to a meeting? Oh, that's embarrassing. Oh, sorry, guys. I had a connection issue. No, you didn't have a connection issue. You're on Instagram. You have an Instagram
issue.
Okay, you didn't Subhanallah so can you Malik was thinking what should I do? What should I do? What should I say? He says, you know, a lab a lab in my mind of what to say. He said was the anti allergenic and equally the raw, even angry. And I went to my family members, the ones with wisdom. And he asked him helped me out see some harmless Shura. What should I say? What excuse should I make up? And then he made up some stuff in mind. Then an announcement was made the three announcements. The second announcement was made. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and the Muslim army will arrive anytime soon has it's a matter of moments. He said when I heard this news, all the lies I
prepared
I deleted them. No way. We're out of two I want you to pay attention. I will read the anatomy shallow one out of two and Nealon our crew, German whoever, then we say in vehicle and I came to the conclusion that there's no way I'll be saved if I choose to lie. Allahu Akbar, I came to the conclusion that there is no way to be saved. If I choose to lie. For as mattress at the house, I chose to say the truth that I have no What excuses whilst about how Rasulullah Kadima third one the prophet has arrived sallallahu alayhi wa sallam test ready for the test? Test on a Sunday on a Sunday and a nice weather nice weather inshallah. What was the first thing Rasool allah sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam known to do when he comes back from a trip or Asian when it comes back from a trip, girlfriend?
I sent you her diabetic fee he used to come to the masjid and your Carnac it and pray to Allah carrot. So May Allah help me and help us all you come back from DPW or whatever the airport if you're capable pacify the mister to rock and then head home. Perhaps Allah knows best to you know reconnect your connection, reconnect your relationship with the masjid because when you travel, you kind of weaken that connection and you want to come back that's perhaps one of the wisdoms and Allah knows best. So Kevin Mitnick says Rasool allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam he came and he went to the masjid and prayed to rock out when he finished the salah. What do you think happened? Some major
incident as he sat and he started to listen to people, may Allah grant us wisdom and strength, immutable alanine for people Yeah, Teddy Runa LA, then groups of people 80 plus people who did not show up, came to him and they started to give excuses. Why Yeah, Holly foon Allah, Allah rasool Allah, and he I'll be honest with you, if I was able to make it I would have been the first one actually, I would have probably been first row with you. But you know, subhanAllah my arm broke, right? And you probably wrapped or something, making up stuff. And you know, I had death in the family. And actually my wife went through labor but Subhanallah Where's the baby that deviates from
that and they're lonely, they're not your own.
Anything just excuses, excuses. And not once Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam very far asked for evidence Fair enough. He just whatever they say he takes it. So Kevin Malik says for AQa that the Islandia team so the province are selling me accepted everything they said was still for Allah Allah home and he made do out for them. May Allah forgive you guys for not showing up. I understand your excuses. May Allah forgive you and Allah have mercy upon you. Well, what Keller Surah Hamid Allah, but the prophets he relied on Allah to judge their intentions Fair enough. So I will take what you said. Even though might not look makes sense that you have a broken arm because you keep
doing this Wallahi Okay, it looks like you're good. That's okay. Whatever, right? So he just judged based on what is being said and he let the hearts be judged by Allah. Then finally, who came Khabib mnemonic fella Mr. Lim to ally capital when it came to the Prophet as it Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah Suman, Audubon. He smiled the smile of someone who's angry, no one's going to agree.
Then he said, Tal, come forward cap, come down. fragilis to rainy day. So then I came in I sat right in front of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, then the Prophet told me malefic Why didn't you show up? Is you have something going on? Did you not just buy a new ride? Remember the two rights did not just buy a new ride to carry you around? To cab said yes sir Rasul Allah, I had this ride Bella, then cab before telling his excuse, or the reasoning or anything he wants to give an introduction. Can we hear the introduction to Dr. Oz who Allah let me tell you something, please. If I sat in front of anyone on Earth besides you, I believe I have the tools, the eloquence, the
fluency in speech to get out of the problem.
Allah blessed me, I'll tell you to judge Allah. I was blessed with a way to speak, and I can get away with any problem. I believe that's my belief. Besides you like I don't think I can get away if I speak to you. For I will tell you exactly what's going on. Because if I were to tell you a lie, you may be pleased by me for a moment. But then Allah eventually expose me then you will be angry at me. Or I have another option. I tell you the truth exactly why I did not show up. You will be angry, but I'll be hopeful that Allah will forgive me Subhanallah in Hector, even Caveny Malika the Allah one and this was very powerful. I learned from Shama chagrin.
He was not willing to please the profit at the expense of displeasing Allah. Unbelievable. Well, I heard this and he paused, pause the video.
Cagney Malik was not willing to please Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam at the expense of displeasing Allah not even for a minute.
So what Why would some of us struggle in a way we all struggle, but don't ever try to please someone who's
Regular Navy regular man or woman lamang were fatherless son or daughter no one at the expense of displeasing Allah. God did not do it even with Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said he says yes to Allah. With that being said, let me tell you what happened. love Allah He Malka nirodha from bottom line. I dropped the ball. I have no excuses. Not a single this use not just that yet also Allah He could have he could have stopped, right? It's not just that I was never as ready for a battle as much as that time. I even had to cattles I had so much money, I reached my peak of physical strength. That was the moment so I had 00 Even in the minus of excuses. So when the Prophet
sal Allahu Allah, You sent me heard this, he looked at the Sahaba, who the prophets I seldom looked at the sahaba. He said, A Maha caatsa. Duck.
That's where this man he said the truth. What is this kind of hint? Allah knows about the other 80 plus people.
Is it a Maha Sadhak? Then he told him, may Allah forgive you? Did he make dua for them? That was a major sin. You committed a major sin you were commanded by Allah, and by the soul sallallahu alayhi wa sallam to join the army of taboo to go fight the Romans and one of the biggest expeditions in the history of Islam and you were able fully capable of God yet he didn't show up.

So then Kabaneri Melaka says for Wallahi mezzaluna U S. Mizel. Un Eboni they can make me feel bad. Like I messed up. I should have never said the truth. I should have lied. I should have lied. Hi, Kid two hours on the verge of going back to tell the profit well cuz the UFC. You know, when I told you I have no excuses. Yeah, that's a lie. I'm just trying to be critical. You know what I mean? Like, don't be like the only guy that says the truth. And he was actually thinking to go tell the prophet that I lied when he actually said that truth. But before he made that move, he asked one question, what was it? Here's one question.
He asked his family. Do you know anyone that did what I did, and heard what I heard?
And the answer was
only two to two people. Yes. There were two men who said the same thing. I have no excuses. And they were told boycotted, who are they to? Hillel Look, no omega, and Morato neuroglia. So Cabb says, when he heard these names that are giulini, asylee Hain these are really good brothers. And they witnessed the Battle of better Shahida Godhra. He said, When he heard this, I said, You know what? I'm not changing my mind. I'm going to stay on saying the truth. What helped cab stick to the truth. Good friends, Allahu Akbar. Good friends many friends they don't want to lie. They don't want to say something that is wrong. They don't want to do that which is haram but the Friends Influence either

This was many years ago so this link was like a party and so on and you remember a comment without going into a lot of detail that hurt me so much as I was asked to cry so hurt you like gross not that bad. But let me tell you there was a comment by a sister she said in this party or and so on. I'm thinking to wear a very short skirt. I don't usually wear those I feel uncomfortable help like in his like what do you guys think? So you can tell the sister is on what on the fence it's clear on the fence I'm

She was on the fence and you could have given goodness see how she would have listened to me Allah protect us.
Mila grid has raised his friendship many times even cab brothers sisters can add Sahabi Sahadi prophets friend, he was on the fence of haram and hella Salah yes or no. And what pushed him to the right was a good friend. So what about you and I who is not a companion Level One comment from a friend can take you east or west May Allah protect us and greatest good friends Jada, Bella and me. She said since the friend said that I'm not changing my mind. He said as a result, Fitzgibbon and NAS firstly never noticed that people were away from us. And no one was saying salaam no one would say no response. No one no role at all. Not even the shop ordered not nothing
ever done? Absolutely not. He said he's to walk in the markets of Medina. No one says salam Tanaka to yell org. Wala he says the land the very land I lived and walk on is no longer the same. It feels weird. You know what, like, let's say you got a big problem at work. Next day you show up and you feel like the office is not really comfortable. The atmosphere is not the same. Because everybody's looking down. Everybody's away. Hatanaka team epsilon sama here let's get out of this is not that land. It's not the medina die, you know, and he was so much in pain. He says extra my two friends. They stayed home. Yep. Kian they kept crying and crying nonstop. As for me, I was the youngest watch
that the home and I was the strongest of all three, like I was a young man. And I used to actually go to the market. I used to go to the masjid and one time as I went to the masjid, I saw rasool Allah SallAllahu Allyson and praying and then after the Salah, when the Prophet has finished his salah, I looked at him and he was not looking at me. So I said a Salam o alaikum.
Shouldn't cap says, Well, I don't know. Did he move his lips and say what Alikum Salam or not?
He was devastated. Salam aleikum, WA Allah what sin in the world is worth you putting your hand at the moment of seeing the prophet at risk Salah what moment wala what video on YouTube well let Instagram or whatever social media or any move in life is worth putting your sight to the Prophet on your McLamb at risk.
He says salaam aleikum, he says I was looking at him with his lips. I can confirm. He said then also more solid than I used to pray right next to me comes early. Allahu Akbar. First row. As soon as a prayer Allahu Akbar. He said when I pray, I can feel him looking at me. You know when you're standing you don't have an icon. I know you guys are looking. He said that when I'm done my salah said I'm gonna look at him. He looks away.
When I look at him, he looks away. When he looks at me. I'm not looking and then I switch and then back and forth. You can see Rasul Allah Salem this boycott is not because I hate you. This boycott is because I love you. Some people Subhanallah it works with them. Some people changes in his pain. May Allah protect us yada Bill Alameen then he said, I was so sad this is this is devastating. This is so difficult. Had to sell water to the data Hyatt I actually climbed the fence of one of my friends. What he jumped into his backyard wine. He said this was my best friend Abu Qatada. My husband has a hobby this may have been my beloved. And it was really struggling emotionally. I was
in one of my toughest moments in my life. So I said Yeah, baka Tada Salam o alaikum. So Allah him Allah Dahlia Sinha? My best friend BFF Best Friends Forever After the name of one equals Salam.
Then capsid yeah berkata Yeah, Becca Tada. I asked you by Allah. Do you not know that I love rasool Allah and Allah it's a yes or no question. Just yes or no. Do you not know that I love Allah does Prophet sallallahu Sallam second abakada Doesn't even answer yes or no. Not not even a nod. La hawla wala Quwata illa Allah. Then I repeated my question. Yeah, I got Qatada. I said who Kabila? I asked you by Allah. I beg you Yabba Qatada? Yes, sir. No. Do you not know me your best friend? Whether I love Allah and the Prophet or not for a second
then he's a third time you asked him I beg you by Allah answer. He was devastated. About Qatada replied, and he said yes or no. He said, Allahu wa salam, O Allah, Allah and the Prophet they know best for file dot ini. And they start crying. Not even this. This is now being doubted. Class. This is That's it? I know what I did was bad. Your job. He knew no one can help. He came to the conclusion that even the prophets of Allah Allah use them can help him. Not even though Sahaba can help him now even emotionally for father Tineye he's the one that was walking, walking in the markets of Medina. No one is talking to me just walking by myself. And someone says Who here knows
Oh is where CARDONE Malik is what? Who here knows where Academy Malik is? Who is this man? He was a Christian, who was a businessman coming to sell some grains in Medina and he has something for him. What's the thing? We will tell you in sha Allah. But let's take a quick break. Seven Minutes in sha Allah. Then we'll resume in the line subhanho wa Taala Bismillah Sato was salam ala Rasulillah ala alihi wa sahbihi wa salam. So we stopped where Kabaneri Malik Radi Allahu Anhu. He has been struggling very, very, very much. And he has been walking in the markets of Medina. And no one is talking to him. Nobody's replying to Salam, not at all, until one time as he's traveling, what
happened? He said, probably Allahu Anhu. There was a man Nabati he's a Christian man who came and he should sell some grains. And when he came, he asked the people do anyone know where is God in the Malik? So Cab said for the people. Yes, you see Runa la people are pointing. He's right there. So then he came to me and what in the world does this man want that came all the way up from North selling some grains. He said to him Jakub, I have a letter from you a letter for me from who mean Maliki risen from the King of sun before you even know what the sun or anything I came sending a letter just for me and not have at that time and Medina someone they're not still that strong that
everybody knows about them that prestige? No. So I king of Lausanne comes to send me a letter? Yes. Who is a son? What's that nation? The son is a Christian tribe, tribe that was allied with the Romans. You see the connection? A Christian tribe that was allied with the Romans? Where did the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam come from?
From taboo core he was about to fight that. So it's not coincidence right? As we learn from our teachers, not coincidence they know what they're doing.
Let's read the letter read the letter. It looks similar and bad. So the king now has letter written and now sent to kami Malik. They know that Bella running Jakob I have heard when NASA Hey Becca javac that your friend meaning who Mohamed Salah Salem is treating you harshly he's no longer nice to you. Well, let me tell Allah who will be Daddy, why didn't Well Ahmadiyya and Allah doesn't accept and does not Allah does not appreciate for you to live in a place where you are inferior, where your rights are not being given to you Allahu Akbar sounds very familiar. Filipina. So come to our land, come up to the Romans come up to the Sun area, new ASIC we will mend your broken heart
will take care of you.
And that's it. very concise. To the point come, we'll take care of you. I know they're not nice. So when can I read this letter? This is This is crazy.
I'm gonna be making money.
Right or wrong? There's a lot of money in this, you know, I believe was Imam Suraj if I'm not mistaken, he said you want to make a lot of money out of out of writing a book. The most books that make you so much money even if they're horribly written books against Islam. He said you will be rich support anything so they know up there up north that this man this Muslim man is broken. He's alone. So let's use that low point of this and tell them you have no rights come to our land. Let's give you the rights that you deserve. And it happens maybe till this day may Allah protect us. Right? Your mom tells you not to eat and drink really? Does she like encourage you or does she kind
of force you
this appeal and limit to the twist your ears can actually record that you don't mind? Thank you sweetie. So does mom tell you to do me Allah forgive us we smile but this is serious. May Allah protect us era Bill alanine some stuff are dangerous. Yes. Understand. May Allah protect the kids, but some stuff is taken out of proportion. Agreed. Oh, you don't want to learn this? Come on. What's wrong with you guys? Your mom tells you this is wrong. Go tell your mom that love is love and coffee is coffee. And honey just heard the gentleman has asthma. May Allah protect us and those who understand the understand. Right? It's okay why not? So what May Allah protect us yada yada. So
Kevin Malik when he got this letter, what did he say? What are you done? Meanwhile, Bella. Cap said and this letter is also a test. This letter is also a trial and tribulation, testing my sincerity, testing whether I need my repentance are not familiar to her. Then I went through it and I burned it. Allahu Akbar. I'm not taking chances. And that's how we should deal with fitna. Let me just keep the email unread just made out I never know what happens. Now delete

I never know what happens tomorrow, whatever the profit never comes and gets back to me with an update law I want to burn it because I'd rather die in this case than sell my didn't for anything in Estonia Allahu Akbar. So cap said, many nights have passed by Guess how many 40 What? In this whole story you told us was not one or three days? Is it 14 nights have passed? 14 Nights has passed until someone came?
knocked on the door. Who was it? It was a messenger from the Messenger of Allah. So somebody being sent on behalf of the prophets I seldom what is you want? Someone is talking 100 Allah talking to me, what is it? Is it in rasool Allah is Allah Allahu alayhi wa sallam, the prophet is commanding you. He has to do what? To be away from your wife.
Stay away from your Atlanta club. Do not approach your wife. So Cab the his response shows you what he cares about. He's a asked OTA liberal How do I divorce her? Or what should I do? So the man says, No, you're not being taught to divorce, just don't approach it. Don't be intimate, stay away from her. So now even the wife is with the entire Muslim community obeying who rasool Allah is Allah alayhi wa sallam, look at the obedience. So then cabin medic, he said, Okay, he went to his wife. He told her Go Go with your family, go to your family's place until Allah decides about my situation. And she listens and She obeys ALLAH, Rasool Allah and her husband may Allah subhana protect us era
Bill Allah mean, but caps at something he said asked for the wife of Hillel, the wife of heat and who are the two people halal and Morata. Right. As for the wife of Ilan, she went to the prophets of Allah Allah Santa why? She said my husband, che Han BA and my husband is very dependent, and an old man and he has no one to serve him but to me, would you disapprove for me to stay behind and serve Him because my husband's really old? He said law it's okay. You can stay Allahu Akbar Islam. There's the Rama part, right? It's things of extreme no Islam intervenes and comes in and adjusts accordingly Allahu Akbar. Then he says La will lack in LA Aklavik. However, don't let him approach
you don't be intimate. She said Dr. Rasool Allah. When Allah He from the day the announcement was made of to be boycotted until today. He has no appetite, no desire of anything in this world and all with my husband does for 40 days. Yeah, rasool Allah was what cry 40 days crying Rasul Allah. So he approved the wife of Hillel to stay with her husband. Then cab or the Allahu Anhu. He had his one of his family members or so sneak a note or something. I don't know exactly how it went through. But they sent him something you remember the family, sometimes they intervene, right? They say why don't you go tell the prophet to give an excuse? It's halal. It's not a lie. Okay, God. Tell them to have
your wife stay with you. The way the wife of Ilana stayed with Ilan. Can you do that? He said, I will not lie last dad in law, Allah Allah has permission. He said, I'm a young man go to the province and someone to help me. He's like, I will never do that. There's no way look at this truthfulness. I like Radi Allahu, and then he said 10 more nights have passed by. So now the total is 50 Nights. On the day of the 50th night on the 50th day. He said I prayed further. And I sat on the roof of my house. And I was so down at a point that I never was this low in my life of grief, sadness, anxiousness, disappointment, all feelings together. I felt choked. I felt like this world
is so different to me. And I realized that no one can help me but Allah while while I was sitting, I heard someone calling my name yaakob mnemonic. What is it? The name came as if someone came on top of a hill like the name then that yelling is from very far away distance. yaakob mnemonic app. Sure. Congratulations. He said the moment I heard app share I went into such the frustration is that I knew this means for us. This means Allah's Relief has come. This means is good news. I'm sure she was so happy. He said then someone on a horse was running towards me so fast. I can see the horsemen running, running, running, running, running. And then I kept in the Malik he could not wait. The guy
went on the hill. could not wait to go to cab and knock on the door cars. Good morning.
I got something
For you, congratulations. He couldn't wait. That's how much they loved one another. That's how much they cared about one another. This Boyka was not because we hate you, but because we love you, Allah, Allah Akbar. And that man could not wait. And also allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, what did he say? The best of believers, the best of deeds have will emmalin Allah. So rude onto Twitter we call the Muslim is a good news. Wonderful news that you share with someone. A joyful moment that you can share with someone is one of the greatest deeds that you can do. And this man could not wait to say knock on the door. I have good news. I'm gonna yell while I'm walking to you since you're
texting someone. Abraham I'm coming right now you're driving this as an example. Right? You call them like, I'm on my way, you know, come outside because of the urgency. That's how much he loved him or the Allahu Anoma. He said then the man on the on the horse came to me and gave me the same what news? But I wanted to give the one who gave me the news from the hill before the one that wasn't the horse. Why is it because the voice of that man beat the horse man Subhanallah because he told me first say thank you so much. Then the guy came the one who's yelling God, then canceled I was so happy. I gave him my outer garment. Look, you know what, bro? That's my favorite jacket and
take it. He said I took it off and gave it to him. He's like at that moment. Wallahi I had no garments besides the one I'm wearing the exterior one. So I had to borrow. I had to like rent, rent a suit or something. Right? So he said for staff to soybeans and I went and I rent it to thobes Then I went to Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he's excited on his way what's going on? But he has think imagine groups and groups folds and folds or groups of people. Come in. Congratulations, God, congratulations. ABSHER congratulating the Danica the Tanika Taguba to Allah He I like be happy Allah accepted your Toba. Allah accepted your apology. Allah accepted your repentance. So then Cat
said that I entered the masjid when I came in. I saw it I saw a lady sallallahu alayhi wa sallam sitting around them are people. One of the people his name was Paul have no Obaidullah remember that wonderful name. Fall have no Obaidullah cab said when his cab saying the story. Remember the intro I told you. He's telling you the story when he's when he's what? Very old? Very, like I'm talking like maybe decades later Allah knows best. So he said when I walked in, while having Obaidullah got up and he's not rushing towards me was an offer honey, well, her nanny, he came, shook my hand and he greeted me and he embraced me. And he said, Well, Hola Hola. Hola. Hola.
Hola. Hola. We'll never forget what that had it to me. He was the only one from them. Oh, hygiene, the immigrants who got up and walked to me to greet me to congratulate me Subhanallah probably told her does not remember. Correct. Maybe doesn't remember that I got up and I said I did that. But sometimes these moments that you do to people are moments that you will never forget for the rest of their lives. Maybe it's that congratulations for passing the MCAT maybe it's a letter that you wrote a light for a post a comment, write something that I'll never forget that. I have. For example, I will never forget that when my dad passed away. Check with the Sunni called me Messiah. For example,
His very busy schedule. He called me he said, Well, Elijah, may Allah subhanaw taala have Rama on your father and so on these moments, not that you're upset that others now Allah, but sometimes these moments until now we can't forget it. Subhanallah right. I'll never forget. For example, there's one chef I love so so much so much. So many years ago, when I hardly ever used to seem like except there's a lot of people around him. I loved him so much, but I wasn't really strong enough to express that love to him. So then I was like walking and I see him getting to his car. So they're having eye contact, you know, the awkward eye contact. She saw me and mashallah is a very
intelligent man. So he looked at me, he said, Dad, come here, says
dad's dad, so then he came, and then he gave me a hug. And I'll just cannot forget that moment. That was maybe 10 years ago, right? But somehow these moments and I shared that story with him. He doesn't remember at all. So God says I'll never forget haha, standing up rushing towards me and shaking the hand. I'll never forget that. Then he says then I went to Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. Then he said, said Salam, and without a doubt with your gut response. This aleikum wa Salam wa rahmatullah wa barakato. Then captures that also Allah then the prophet tells him Yeah, cab upset Yeah, cab congratulations, for what? For Allah accepted your forgiveness. But you know what he
tells cab? Yeah, cab. Congratulations for going through today is the best day you have ever lived in your life. And when the prophet tells you what's the best day then nothing beats that day agreed. The best day of your life is not the day you graduate, though. That's nice. It's not the day you get married though. That's great. It's not the day Good job though. That's phenomenal. But the greatest day of your life is the day Allah accept your apology is a day Allah erases your sins and substituted into good deeds. That's the greatest day of your life. May Allah grant it to all of us that are behind me. He says the radioman manga la chemin du Lac como
So Academy medic says yet also Allah, is this forgiveness coming from you or from Allah, Minka and Manila. He says La is from Allah is from Allah subhana wa Tada. It's not like me making dua for you. It's Allah Jalla Jalla Allah, He revealed yet about the situation. Allah revealed Quran He revealed Quran that will be recited to the day of yarmulke Yama and we'll touch on these verses. So then Kab says two things to the Prophet, two of three, the first one when he asked him Is this from you or from the second thing he says, You are also Allah? I promise because of Allah accepting my repentance. I'm going to donate every single penny I have couldn't manage. So the coffee Sevilla
rasool Allah Azza wa sallam for Allah and His Messenger all my money. So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, No, don't donate all your money, at least keep some with you. So he said, Okay, by the way, this hadith that I'm sharing with you is one Hadith in Bukhari, 100 this whole thing, and there's obvious some parts that I might have forgotten while I'm narrating the Hadith. But one of these scholars said you can extract 100 lessons from this hadith 100. And Allah this was so great of a hadith so great of a story they call Amara Shoukry, who has a short session, written record, and relatively about two and a half hours, three hours on YouTube, and I strongly encourage
you to watch it. One of the best videos I've watched and heard about this hadith is called the redemption of katni Malik, Amara Shoukry. And you will not regret it, trust me. Wonderful, phenomenal way of teaching it. And I heard this and while I feel like you know what, maybe had to do a series about cabling. This is headed SubhanAllah. Why? Because he just said, I will donate all of mine.
The Prophet said don't so now we'll learn something aspect that in Islam should not donate all your money like that.
So he said, keep some of your money. So he said, Okay, I'll keep a share from Hiber. Brother Brother, I have a question. Yes. What is it? Well, Abu Bakr Siddiq one time, he donated all of his money. That's true, but that was in case of an emergency.
That was a battle life or death. That's a different situation. Here's the one sadaqa that is generally Fair enough. So here he said you know what, I will do everything the private said No, keep some of your money. It Okay. I'll keep some of it. See another lesson. Don't argue with the Prophet. Don't think you're more holy. No, I got it luck. Keep some of it. The last thing, Kevin relic tells the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. Please pay close attention. He said them. You are also allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. He says in them in Toba t part of my repentance out of appreciation and gratitude for Allah accepting my forgiveness. I promise. Allow Hadith Allah sitcom advocate, that I
will never for the rest of my life ever say anything except the truth. Can we make the promise of cap?
Can we make the promise of cap that you will never say a word that comes from your mouth? Except it's a word of truth. You don't want to lie. You can refrain. You don't want to lie. You can tell them I don't want to talk about he can find ways but don't you ever say a lie? And he said, Oh Allah He. I don't know anyone that was blessed for saying the truth as much as I was blessed. For it was a moment that Allah saved me. Why? Because Allah also revealed verses. For those who lied. Allahu Akbar.
Remember the 80 plus people remember, how did when they were walking the people say Salam aleikum to them
that people say what? Alikum Salaam. They live 50 days.
No one knows that they're liars. Remember, the guy got food poisoning and they didn't. I broke my arm. Remember, my wife was delivering all these examples. They got away with it for how long? 50 days, but I can guarantee you something. These 50 days they were still not comfortable. I promise you why? Because the private says we're in El Khatib. arriba. Lying off always makes you uncomfortable. When you get whenever you lie, you're uncomfortable. If I get caught, you didn't get caught me still uncomfortable. So you say the truth. You might get in trouble, but the longer outcome will always be more fruitful. And that's what Cat said. I will never ever lie. I will always
say the truth as long as I live and may Allah make a slight gap. So with that being said, are we ready to go through the verses be in the love for next 30 minutes ready inshallah Bismillah. There are verses 117 118 and 119 of chapter number nine from Surah Tober. May Allah grant us Baraka Amira, Bill alanine.
Other way Miss Mila, Allah subhanho wa Taala and this verse starts by saying, I will be lynched Rajim locka Turb Allahu Allah Nibi Allah subhanho wa Taala has forgiven the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. There's a lot that can be said the prophets commit sins. Do they do major? Do they do minor? There's a lot of talk, but there's one thing to share with you for the sake of time. Never does a prophet say anything about the religion that is wrong. Fair enough. When it comes to religious specific
Take matters they never make mistakes. Never ever proof. Allah says 1 million tiempo en el Hawa. inuwa Allah, wa you knew when it comes to Revelation, it's always from Allah led to the Prophet to Jabril Gibreel says a prophet and there's no mistakes in that. There's another area. Allah says Allah Allah Who and the same surah Allah says to the Prophet, may Allah forgive you. The man didn't tell me why did you accept the excuses? You should have waited until it was distinguished the truthful from that liar, no problem. So Allah has forgiven Rasulullah Salah and you can tell the standard Allah is holding the prophet is very, very, extremely high. Then Allah says I forgave the
Prophet and when we had Rena will answer the immigrants those who were in Mecca and they moved to Medina and the support is unsolved. Alladhina Tabata Wolfie satin, also Allah, Allah says I forgave them those who follow the Prophet sallallahu I knew he wasn't doing the what what's the word?
Hour of great difficulty when Allah tells you is difficult What is it Mahadeo says is right I can handle this No If Allah does is difficult is difficult. Remember the heat of the sun very long trip huge enemy the Roman Empire there was not much water. It was harvest season remember like tax season? No way you guys we get your money. All that put on the line. I'm gonna go join the prophets Allah Allah Allah. So Allah says, Allah forgive those who follow the Prophet so I said and during the hour of difficulty can we appreciate the word here? What's the word wouldn't appreciate that on every word every letter that's the word I want to look look into more was what word?
Our
what our sound it was not to say I was a trip.
The trip was long trip. There was days and weeks and Allah knows if it exceeded a month or so. There was a long long trip. But Allah says sir because no matter how difficult the situation may be when you fulfill an obligation of Allah is difficult but just a moment and what you will get a free award is so long, that makes that difficult moment, sir. Just a moment. Allahu Akbar how difficult it can be to wake up for failure. Be honest. Right? You wake up you're struggling cold water you wait till the water warms up right like I'm wasting waters are hot. I'm like best I want water. It's in Yammer. And you're going through this I feel you right and then you're waiting you're exhausted you
do this
right and then you make wudu and forgot your right arm and
then you go back to the right and he's struggling suffering right hardship sad. It's a moment when say he doesn't mean 60 minutes and you go pray not Fajr to to work as before Fajr the sooner or later to what's the reward of the Toorak autophagy Rasul Allah Islam said Go ahead. How we'll try to take a shot. What's the real world?
The world I sent Allah here very fake me Allah grant you that rewards say I mean I sent you about Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, like I tell Fajr the Toorak ad before Fajr Hiren Mina dunya wa mafia is more rewarding to you will benefit you more than someone tells you you're on Earth and whatever is on it. If someone tells you all the stocks of Tesla will be yours, or you choose to get the reward of the truck or the forfeiture.

I hope you guys got that. Because when they came to give their excuses the people the province accepted accepted for them. They were held behind. There's no
response yet. It's like when you get your license, but you don't actually get the car to get a paper right like a temporary hold. So those were held for 50 Nights, they too are forgiven. Check this out. Allah describes to you how they felt, had to in our dark alley, human Adobe marhaba three explanations. Allah said the way he felt as if Earth became so tiny, though it was very vast. Allahu Akbar, is so painful. They felt so sad after being boycotted for 50 Nights, as if they were living in a tiny cell. They can walk, they can travel everywhere, but Subhanallah some emotions only Allah knows about people look at you, they think you're fine, but only Allah knows that you're in prison.
Yeah, Allah, may Allah forgive us. May Allah release us. May Allah grant us freedom Yato beta alanine, the proper freedom. Then Allah says number two or three, while daqarta Allah him and for some, not just that the world seemed tight. They could not stand their own selves. Yeah, Allah. They talked even their own sounds. They felt tight as if Subhanallah Yeah, now give an example of a fish in a bowl. But that fish is in an ocean. But the fish pretends in an ocean there's an A bowl the Allah's stuck, I can't go I can't walk. I can't breathe. I'm struggling. And you know what happens? This what happens when you love someone so much and you disappoint them? Agreed? You love someone so
much that you disappoint them? How hurt do you become? I came up with a debt to my mom and dad, I can't believe I did that to my spouse. I can't believe I did that to my child. I can't believe I did that to my friend. You feel horrible. And there's no greater pain than disappointing Allah subhanaw taala. I was never as ready. Many of us here. Never knew we will have what we have today. Agreed. Many of us here never knew we will drive the car that we have today. Many of us here never knew I had the cash that we have today. And what have we done? I hope we're much better than before. yarrabilba alanine, and you realize from cap that what we're missing is not the means sometimes,
because cab never had stronger means than Tabuk and he still did not go. What we miss sometimes is not the money is not that physical strength is that really strong heart may Allah protect us and sometimes will lie. Remember this? Sometimes Allah can make people not so rich for their sake. Please remember that. Sometimes Allah protects you. I know some things may get angry. But please be patient with me. Please be patient. And understand there's multiple ways to look at it. Sometimes Allah may protect you from going to medical school. Allah protection. You try you did you studied you failed. You cried, you draw and still don't go Allah's Rama. You don't know what would have
happened. You never know how many people we know personally, were so active in the massages, right? Always. They're always attending, always delivering and so on and so forth. Not like they got occupied with other things that are great. May Allah protect all of us? Same, I mean, but he's like went elsewhere. I got a job at this company. Are you helping you in any level? I'm just very busy with this thing and so on. Are you getting back in any way? No. Subhan Allah, may Allah protect us and yada but I didn't give us what's best for us. I mean, so this is what they're going through. So then Allah says the last part. Well, one new manager, I mean, Allahu La and they came to the
conclusion, the final conclusion they came to it, there is no one that can help me from Allah's Anger except Allah.
No one can help you and I feel better better than Allah that's it. That was the conclusion it's over to them it's a no brainer. Usually when you fear someone what do the teachers tell us? When you fear someone? What do you do?
There's a thief coming your way you do that? What do people do when
they run away from them? Right? You run away he's here you run away. There's a dog. How many times have you run out from dogs dog?
Now Yeah, hey, Lola, and you jump and you do all kinds of stuff. Running dog came, you fear something? You don't away from it right? You're told to stay in whatever Allah Allah.
But what happens when it comes to Allah the best of examples, basically, cliche, is when Allah is angry at you. There's nothing better for you to do than run back to Allah. And Allah me for this example, not a perfect example. But a child and their parents. It's a good example we hear a lot. A child goes to a store, and he messes up something very bad breaks a jar. Okay? He's a Kroger or whatever.
In Nutella, Nutella drops and breaks. What is it in this kid's mind that he has to pay for it? No. People are gonna think He's weird. No. People are gonna yell at him. No, he's worried about one and only thing. Mom.
Not the cops not being in jail. He'd rather be in jail. I'd rather to go to prison now has been completely different outcomes. But what does the child do? Everyone is like, it's okay, sweetie. It's fine. Right? Everything's gonna be just okay. I'll pay for it. Auntie, sister. Whatever. Don't be angry. No, the kid though. Everyone is nice. Everyone is smiling. He knows something the kid knows. No one can help me but Mum from Mum.
No one can help me from Mom's anger except mum. So what happens? That kid runs
and he hugs the mom. And she so angry. Then when he does this?
I know you moms are the bad cops out there. Right? Right. That's what happened to us. I'll share with you two days ago. Actually not was it yesterday, two days ago. So we're having a thought of me. My wife and my kids. Then I have my youngest table loveless all our children. So we're eating and she was like yelling.
Mama, you're supposed to be sleeping in nature, yelling and crying. He's supposed to be sleeping. So then my wife says, Let me see what's going on. Brother. You should have got up okay, relax. I'm hungry.
Okay, so then my wife she got up and then she went to the room. Then my wife came to me. She says magic. Come see what he did. So he walked in, and he was a mess. She had lotion all over.
Okay, Avene Well, whatever. She had slow it was like a bucket. Not like the one that whatever. Forgive me. I don't know my terms. But it's okay. May Allah forgive us. Okay, so she did this. And she probably played the car. So of course he did this.
And she made Waldo.
Right? And it was all over the bed and all over the sheet. And what was she saying? Well, Ma, because she knows no one will save her from Mama. Except mom.
Because while Lola can do something about this now right? How was I got this now give away I got this nothing but knowing even the kid knows. And in a way we are children. Right? In the way we're still Subhan Allah may Allah protect us and forgive us. Hello, Bill. Alameen when Allah is angry at you, what drink you're trying to drink to forget about Allah.

I tell you, and then now I didn't swear but now I swear, will Allah He just added an exponential level of misery to yourself. Exponential misery, the one you're running away from and the one you tried to cut off is the one that you need more than anyone in the world. Because Allah said women out of the industry to in Allahumma Chetan Blanca, because Allah said Whoever goes astray the further away you go from Allah the more miserable your life will be.

Is this what does it mean? Some metabo Allah, Allah accepted or not accepted, Allah returned to them. That was step one. That's what many of us don't talk much about, which is Allah opening the door for you.

Two things it took Allah. That's one there's two, this one it does Allah, Be conscious of Allah to be mindful of Allah. Make Allah the most important thing to Attila mean. Protect yourself from Allah's Anger, it tequila, what do we do because of the COVID. We wear a mask, we take a shot, we take a booster, we do all things we avoid large gatherings. All of this because Taqwa from the corona, protection from the COVID, right? Allah is the best example it tequila. Your mask is doing what Allah told you to do.

And may Allah returned to us step one, so we can repent back to him so he can repent back to us and accept me Robert alanine. So a tabula and the conclusion. Step number two, we're Kuno mouse Argentine. Allah is telling you what saved can be
Malik was saying the truth agreed. We clearly saw that his statement of truth though that was brought so much pain. This is what saved Khabib in Malik Radi Allahu, and what did Allah say be with who?
The truthful and who does this include? The three men, which the world boycotted, right, the OMA boycotted, they were sinners, major centers 50 days ago, and now they're role models for all of humanity, Allahu Akbar, Allah when I came across this, I said to myself, the previous I indicated that they created the sin but Allah forgave them. And now Allah is telling us that they are what are role models? I said to myself, what a beautiful Deen we have what a beautiful religion do we have? The you can bounce from a mistake, you can bounce from a sin to the extent not that you're one of the regular people you become from the lowest of low to the highest of high. This is Islam, from
repentance to Allah subhanaw taala it's like you go all the way down like oh, I don't know, this is gonna make you jump higher. Because you bend your knees, you're gonna jump high, you're gonna jump higher and then you jump after October to Allah subhana wa Tada. They became role models. And scabbing medic says, I think Allah subhanho wa Taala for allowing me to say the truth. And he made a promise now he's very old in its shares it he says, Alhamdulillah I was strong enough to say the truth, and I will never lie, I will never lie and I will never lie. Because Allah revealed words. They are the worst of painful words. Any human can hear these two ayat I will not go in detail, but
these two if that were revealed for who, the ones who lied, I'll just read them off will not go into depth. Allah subhanaw taala says in the Quran, I will be lambs. Rajim say Calif Billahi la comida even collaborating li him, literally do annuum follow them when you return. Oh Muhammad when you return from what?

May Allah protect us. They are Bill alanine, you we may lie to the world, but we may never ever lie to Allah Subhana Allah to Allah, continuously repent to Allah. And the best way to keep your steadfast is to be with who the truthful people. Beware when you're hanging out with
someone who lies a lot. Someone right next to you, their mom calls them I know so and so when I call you and you're right next to you and they say I'm a domestic when they're not. Or I'm at playing basketball when there's
somewhere completely else are wrong. Beware of those friends do I tell you to cut them off? I tell you it's a red flag. I tell you this is dangerous I tell to beware May Allah protect a CRO but I mean beware of being around those who encourage you to fake your resume to put experiences that you never had qualifications that you're not qualified for put that you are excellent in Excel you are proficient in wish out of this and that application when you're not just to get the job will lie there maybe no but I can that be where be with those that will struggle be with those I will put the effort and the fail sometimes in the past sometimes, and we will be tested day and night. Now. I say
day and night, because never does a time came with so much trials and tribulations like today, as many of them have said, we're reaching a point of fitting of trials and tribulations that someone perhaps may wake up as a Muslim sleep as a Kaffir. Sleep as a Muslim wake up as a Kaffir. That's how difficult our times have been. And you see it right, left and center. You see people getting jobs and they're not qualified yes or no. And the light will lie. I remember when I was in college, it was so painful. I had this one brother. Okay. Obviously no mention of names. Someone asked me in the break. The if the professor ended up knowing who got a doctor's note. No, the professor did not
know. And the guy given the doctor's note that everything was fine. All right, for those who are concerned about my friend, but I remember when we were about to graduate, and I graduated for those that remember, one of the worst recent recessions was horrible. And there was no jobs. I applied for over 200 jobs. I shared some of this before with you before, but this part that did not share with you. I have others that graduated with me. I remember one of the Muslim brother, he faked his resume. He put experiences that he never had. I worked here in summer, you never went in a sob. You never went anywhere. He stayed in the city. And he put that his references is so and so manager in
who was the manager, our other colleague will allow will never forget it. And what happened? He got a job and I didn't
remember the letter the son sent. And this comes like do that do that thing. Subhan Allah then Allah opens the door for you. But sometimes Allah tests you. I remember some of the ways that Allah brings you back to him sometimes is through pain.
Sometimes the way Allah brings you back to him is through pain. What does Allah say? When you do panda home, we will make them taste menial others will Edna from the pain in this life doing an adorable
doodle adorable Akbar before the great punishment in the afterlife. We punish them lightly here. We make them taste a little whooping white.
So perhaps they may return. Sometimes the best things that happened to us are the most painful moments. May Allah make us strong. May Allah come back strong May Allah make us of the soldier clean and the Moroccan amenable al Amin we're four minutes early and I'm going to stop inshallah Zack will know how you run
