There's a rule of thumb we want to

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

all think of, and I wish if there's

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

one thing people tell me, what should I

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

take from this session? Is the following

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

point which I already mentioned last month.

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

Allah

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

promised you something.

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

Never will you be afraid today

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

of tomorrow

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

except that Allah will save you tomorrow.

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

Never will you be afraid in this life

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

except that Allah will save you in the

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

afterlife.

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

And never are you careless,

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

never are you safe in this life

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

except that Allah will terrify the life out

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

of you in the afterlife.

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

So what's the model that you noticed here?

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

Allah will never have a human being

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

experience

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

2 moments of terrifying matters,

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

And never will a human being feel comfortable

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

in this life and the afterlife.

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

As in feeling like whatever the false hope

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

that is mentioned. So is that clear inshallah?

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

So how should the believers feel in this

00:01:03 --> 00:01:05

life towards that punishment and towards these things?

00:01:05 --> 00:01:06

How should you feel?

00:01:07 --> 00:01:08

Fearful?

00:01:08 --> 00:01:10

Concern? I don't wanna be there.

00:01:10 --> 00:01:12

So that's what is being pushed in a

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

way throughout these sessions, especially when it comes

00:01:15 --> 00:01:17

to the day of judgement. Sounds good inshallah?

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

Alright. Bismillah.

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21

Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala allows on the

00:01:22 --> 00:01:24

people are all over the place panicking.

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

Allah allows the sun to descend.

00:01:29 --> 00:01:33

The sun descends until it becomes 1 mile

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

above the heads.

00:01:34 --> 00:01:37

And people start to panic. People start to

00:01:37 --> 00:01:39

sweat. And there's 4 categories of sweating.

00:01:39 --> 00:01:42

And the amount of sweat is equivalent to

00:01:42 --> 00:01:44

the amount of sins a person had.

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47

People will sweat up to their ankles.

00:01:48 --> 00:01:50

People will sweat up to their knees.

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52

People will sweat up to their belly button.

00:01:52 --> 00:01:53

It's pretty bad.

00:01:54 --> 00:01:57

Horrible image, very embarrassing. How bad was it

00:01:57 --> 00:01:59

that you're sweating that it reached up to

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

here and some sweat all the way up

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

to their mouth and they're drowning from their

00:02:03 --> 00:02:06

own sweat. May Allah protect us. On that

00:02:06 --> 00:02:07

day, what is it that the people are

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

desperate for? Logical.

00:02:09 --> 00:02:10

Common sense.

00:02:10 --> 00:02:11

Shade.

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

But there's no shade on that day because

00:02:13 --> 00:02:14

I

00:02:14 --> 00:02:17

earlier mentioned that the earth is flat. Remember

00:02:17 --> 00:02:20

that? No rocks, no trees, so we want

00:02:20 --> 00:02:23

shade. There's one source of shade, only one

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

source,

00:02:24 --> 00:02:27

which is an area that Allah willed

00:02:28 --> 00:02:30

for people to seek shade under. And it's

00:02:30 --> 00:02:33

known as under the throne of Allah Subhanahu

00:02:33 --> 00:02:35

Wa Ta'ala. So Allah's throne may not be

00:02:35 --> 00:02:37

visible at that moment. Allah knows best, but

00:02:37 --> 00:02:39

there's only a group of people that can

00:02:39 --> 00:02:41

seek shade under that. May Allah make you

00:02:41 --> 00:02:42

of them. Say I mean.

00:02:42 --> 00:02:45

There's more than 7 actually, not just 7,

00:02:45 --> 00:02:47

but the most famous of narration says,

00:02:48 --> 00:02:51

7 people go under that shade. And I

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

think it's very important for us to spend

00:02:53 --> 00:02:54

a few minutes to discuss

00:02:54 --> 00:02:56

who are these 7. Right Insha'Allah?

00:02:58 --> 00:02:59

How many of the 7 will you aim

00:02:59 --> 00:03:00

to have?

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

How many?

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

All of them. We want all 7. We

00:03:05 --> 00:03:08

want Abu Bakr's Sadiq mentality. What do you

00:03:08 --> 00:03:09

mean Abu Bakr's Sadiq mentality?

00:03:09 --> 00:03:11

The mindset of Abu Bakr's Sadiq was as

00:03:11 --> 00:03:15

follows. The prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam says, Jannah

00:03:15 --> 00:03:17

has 8 gates paradise.

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

One gate,

00:03:19 --> 00:03:22

is be calls out the people who excelled

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

in their,

00:03:23 --> 00:03:25

fasting. Oh, you excelled in your fasting, come

00:03:25 --> 00:03:28

from this gate. There's another gate to those

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

who excelled in giving charity. Come over here.

00:03:31 --> 00:03:33

So Abu Bakr Sadiq heard this, so he

00:03:33 --> 00:03:35

said, O prophet of Allah

00:03:36 --> 00:03:39

is it possible for 1 guy to be

00:03:39 --> 00:03:40

called from all 8?

00:03:42 --> 00:03:43

Can you be like the,

00:03:44 --> 00:03:46

most athletic? Can you be v can can

00:03:46 --> 00:03:48

you be MVP in your high school in

00:03:48 --> 00:03:51

bowling and tennis and ping pong and soccer?

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

Can I get MVPs and everything?

00:03:53 --> 00:03:55

So Allah said so the Prophet

00:03:56 --> 00:03:57

says, Yes,

00:03:57 --> 00:03:58

it is possible

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

and you're one of them.

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

So let's be like that, inshallah. We want

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

all 7

00:04:05 --> 00:04:09

Alright. Number 1. Rasul Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam says,

00:04:11 --> 00:04:12

a just leader.

00:04:12 --> 00:04:15

And this leader can be someone from the

00:04:15 --> 00:04:16

a household individual

00:04:16 --> 00:04:19

who has people. He's a guardian over to

00:04:19 --> 00:04:22

a teacher towards students from an imam towards

00:04:22 --> 00:04:23

the congregation.

00:04:25 --> 00:04:27

And to know if you're a very fair

00:04:27 --> 00:04:30

leader even in your group project because there's

00:04:30 --> 00:04:32

a group leader in it. Whatever the case

00:04:32 --> 00:04:33

may be,

00:04:33 --> 00:04:34

are you willing

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

to establish

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

justice

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

even

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

against yourself?

00:04:40 --> 00:04:43

Because people think being is not too bad.

00:04:43 --> 00:04:44

What if the decision you will have to

00:04:44 --> 00:04:46

make is against yourself?

00:04:46 --> 00:04:48

What if you eventually have to say, you

00:04:48 --> 00:04:49

know what? I'm not

00:04:50 --> 00:04:52

sure if I'm qualified for this. Are you

00:04:52 --> 00:04:54

able to say that? Are you able to

00:04:54 --> 00:04:56

say to the person who you decided to

00:04:56 --> 00:05:00

do something, the one suggested another idea, they

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

were right, you were wrong. Are you willing

00:05:02 --> 00:05:03

to tell them you are right and I'm

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

wrong? I'm sorry?

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

That's one of the key ways to know

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

that you're a just leader.

00:05:08 --> 00:05:11

Another thing, the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam and

00:05:11 --> 00:05:12

Allah taught us,

00:05:12 --> 00:05:16

great fair leaders are ones who will judge

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

fairly

00:05:17 --> 00:05:19

even against the people they

00:05:20 --> 00:05:22

hate. And that's not easy.

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25

Right? We get so biased sometimes.

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27

Someone that we hate so much and something

00:05:27 --> 00:05:29

happened, you have to judge between them like

00:05:30 --> 00:05:32

you came. I'm the judge now. I'll show

00:05:32 --> 00:05:34

you what you've done to me that moment

00:05:34 --> 00:05:35

and that moment. But are you able to

00:05:35 --> 00:05:37

be fair in that? May Allah grant us

00:05:37 --> 00:05:38

the best.

00:05:39 --> 00:05:40

The second category,

00:05:43 --> 00:05:45

a young man or a young woman

00:05:46 --> 00:05:47

who grew into

00:05:48 --> 00:05:49

their adulthood

00:05:49 --> 00:05:52

while holding tight to their faith.

00:05:52 --> 00:05:54

Now the question that comes,

00:05:54 --> 00:05:57

what's the limit of shab? Right? Like to

00:05:57 --> 00:05:59

what age am I of that category?

00:05:59 --> 00:06:00

What do you guys think?

00:06:01 --> 00:06:02

27. Interesting.

00:06:03 --> 00:06:05

So if you're holding tight,

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

you have up to 27. So you can

00:06:07 --> 00:06:09

be of that category. That category is a

00:06:09 --> 00:06:11

young man or woman who grew holding tight

00:06:11 --> 00:06:12

to the religion.

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

Some push it. Yeah. And maybe the one

00:06:16 --> 00:06:17

who pushed it was an older person. They

00:06:17 --> 00:06:19

said up to 40 years old.

00:06:20 --> 00:06:23

But definitely, most definitely, who is included? Teenagers.

00:06:24 --> 00:06:26

So if you're a teenager sitting here, a

00:06:26 --> 00:06:27

young person,

00:06:27 --> 00:06:29

maybe early twenties and so on, and you're

00:06:29 --> 00:06:31

holding tight to the deen, congratulations.

00:06:32 --> 00:06:32

Allah,

00:06:33 --> 00:06:35

you have been blessed, you have been honored,

00:06:35 --> 00:06:36

and Allah himself

00:06:37 --> 00:06:39

has a category for you. Allah is something

00:06:39 --> 00:06:40

to be proud of.

00:06:40 --> 00:06:42

Next time someone makes a joke at you

00:06:42 --> 00:06:44

and says, oh my God, you're so Islamic.

00:06:44 --> 00:06:45

Right?

00:06:46 --> 00:06:48

Islamic at 17 and 18 and so on

00:06:48 --> 00:06:50

and so forth. Right?

00:06:52 --> 00:06:54

Oh you who had all these desires in

00:06:54 --> 00:06:56

front of you. Oh you who was told,

00:06:56 --> 00:06:58

let's go hang out in this place. And

00:06:58 --> 00:07:00

usually all the youth go there, but you're

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

like, you know what? It's haram. It's wrong.

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

You'll be honored.

00:07:04 --> 00:07:06

Though they made fun of you, let's see

00:07:06 --> 00:07:08

who's happy on that. May Allah make us

00:07:08 --> 00:07:09

of them. Say, I mean.

00:07:10 --> 00:07:12

I want you to imagine that moment

00:07:13 --> 00:07:14

the youth are being called, Oh, you young

00:07:14 --> 00:07:17

men and women who grew holding tight into

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19

the religion, come under the shade.

00:07:20 --> 00:07:22

And there's a young man or young woman

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

who does not go under the shade.

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26

How bad does it feel? Right?

00:07:26 --> 00:07:28

And and maybe

00:07:28 --> 00:07:29

Allahu ta'ala,

00:07:30 --> 00:07:31

maybe some of them will look at their

00:07:31 --> 00:07:32

parents.

00:07:33 --> 00:07:35

You didn't care to teach me Islam.

00:07:36 --> 00:07:38

All what you cared was making sure I

00:07:38 --> 00:07:39

have the

00:07:40 --> 00:07:41

ability to go to the best of schools.

00:07:41 --> 00:07:44

You cared over that system more than.

00:07:45 --> 00:07:46

You were not able to balance

00:07:47 --> 00:07:49

my life, mom and dad. You didn't care

00:07:49 --> 00:07:50

the at the fact that I can't read

00:07:50 --> 00:07:52

Quran or even know how to make wudu

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

or pray, but you just made sure you

00:07:53 --> 00:07:55

get a scholarship and go to the best

00:07:55 --> 00:07:57

college in the in the world. And look

00:07:57 --> 00:07:59

where the real deal was, and look where

00:07:59 --> 00:08:00

I went.

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

Maybe

00:08:02 --> 00:08:03

people have the best of both worlds. May

00:08:03 --> 00:08:04

Allah grant us the best.

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

But keep that in mind.

00:08:07 --> 00:08:09

The 3rd category out of 7, a heart

00:08:09 --> 00:08:11

that is attached to the masjid.

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

It's like you know you're in the Masjid

00:08:16 --> 00:08:17

and you hang your heart,

00:08:17 --> 00:08:20

and then you walk away. You cannot survive

00:08:20 --> 00:08:21

for too long without coming back.

00:08:22 --> 00:08:24

The one who goes into the masjid, the

00:08:24 --> 00:08:26

believer, the masjid is like the tank filled

00:08:26 --> 00:08:27

with water and you're the fish.

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

You leave the masjid, you want to go

00:08:29 --> 00:08:31

back to the water. You can't wait for

00:08:31 --> 00:08:33

the next salah. You're excited to go to

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

the masjid. May Allah make us of those.

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

Now, some may say, and I try to

00:08:38 --> 00:08:39

look it up,

00:08:39 --> 00:08:42

What about the sisters? Any of the brothers

00:08:42 --> 00:08:44

are very much encouraged. There's a lot of

00:08:44 --> 00:08:45

push. Right? How much,

00:08:46 --> 00:08:47

reward do

00:08:47 --> 00:08:50

the congregational prayer gets? How much more?

00:08:51 --> 00:08:54

About about 27 times more. So I want

00:08:54 --> 00:08:55

you to imagine you're being told,

00:08:56 --> 00:08:58

the people who work remotely Don't raise your

00:08:58 --> 00:08:59

hand. Right?

00:08:59 --> 00:09:01

Great stuff. Right? So let's say if you

00:09:01 --> 00:09:05

work remotely, you make $10 an hour. Then

00:09:05 --> 00:09:07

your boss calls you, listen, 2024,

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

you want to work in the office, I

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

will multiply your hourly wage which is 10.

00:09:12 --> 00:09:13

I'll give you

00:09:14 --> 00:09:16

$270 an hour. What will we all do?

00:09:16 --> 00:09:19

Do Hijrah to the company. Insha Allah. Right?

00:09:19 --> 00:09:22

So imagine this is the offer of Allah,

00:09:22 --> 00:09:24

the best of examples. You wanna pray?

00:09:24 --> 00:09:26

You get 10. You get this Hasina.

00:09:26 --> 00:09:29

But then you get multiplied by 27 times

00:09:29 --> 00:09:32

more had you pray in a congregation.

00:09:32 --> 00:09:35

Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam, this beautiful hadith.

00:09:36 --> 00:09:38

He had a sister. Her name is

00:09:39 --> 00:09:40

Umu Hamedin,

00:09:40 --> 00:09:42

a righteous sister. Why did I say righteous?

00:09:42 --> 00:09:45

Because the prophet taught told us how.

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

She went to the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam

00:09:47 --> 00:09:48

because she knows Islam

00:09:49 --> 00:09:51

really encourages the sisters to pray in the

00:09:51 --> 00:09:53

most private of places in the house.

00:09:54 --> 00:09:56

So she came across that, then she went

00:09:56 --> 00:09:57

to the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam. Said, you

00:09:57 --> 00:09:58

Rasool Allah,

00:10:01 --> 00:10:04

I really love praying behind you in the

00:10:04 --> 00:10:06

masjid. You're my imam, like, I love it.

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

So look what the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam

00:10:09 --> 00:10:11

said. I love the way he responded. The

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

first sentence, he says,

00:10:15 --> 00:10:16

I know that you love praying behind me,

00:10:16 --> 00:10:19

You Allah. Is this not an affirmation that

00:10:19 --> 00:10:20

she's a righteous lady?

00:10:21 --> 00:10:23

She loves the masjid, her heart is attached.

00:10:23 --> 00:10:24

But he told her,

00:10:28 --> 00:10:30

I'm gonna do a little bit of building.

00:10:30 --> 00:10:33

So bear with me. Ready? He tells her,

00:10:33 --> 00:10:36

your salah in the most private place in

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

your house

00:10:37 --> 00:10:40

is better than your salah in an open

00:10:40 --> 00:10:41

area in the house.

00:10:42 --> 00:10:44

So there's a place better than the living

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

room.

00:10:46 --> 00:10:48

And your prayer in inside the open space

00:10:48 --> 00:10:50

in your house as an example, the living

00:10:50 --> 00:10:51

room or so.

00:10:53 --> 00:10:55

Better than praying, for example, in the backyard,

00:10:56 --> 00:10:57

on the porch, etcetera.

00:10:59 --> 00:11:01

And praying in the porch or the backyard

00:11:01 --> 00:11:03

or the front yard is better than praying

00:11:03 --> 00:11:05

in your local masjid.

00:11:06 --> 00:11:09

And praying in your local masjid is better

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

than praying in my masjid.

00:11:13 --> 00:11:14

You see what has happened?

00:11:14 --> 00:11:17

So the closer and the more private the

00:11:17 --> 00:11:19

place of salah is, the more rewarding it

00:11:19 --> 00:11:20

becomes.

00:11:21 --> 00:11:22

While I was preparing this, I had a

00:11:22 --> 00:11:24

question. I'm not making a claim.

00:11:25 --> 00:11:28

He said, you doing that is better than

00:11:28 --> 00:11:29

praying in my?

00:11:31 --> 00:11:33

How rewarding is it to pray in the

00:11:33 --> 00:11:34

Prophet's Masjid?

00:11:35 --> 00:11:36

A 1000 times more.

00:11:38 --> 00:11:40

Right? So if you ever complained about our

00:11:40 --> 00:11:41

27,

00:11:42 --> 00:11:43

think of your 1,000,

00:11:45 --> 00:11:47

Then what did this righteous sister do?

00:11:48 --> 00:11:51

For Amara, she requested in her house, I

00:11:51 --> 00:11:53

guess she was financially comfortable or so where

00:11:53 --> 00:11:54

she had the space.

00:11:54 --> 00:11:55

She requested

00:11:56 --> 00:11:59

for a private place in her house. That's

00:11:59 --> 00:12:00

my area.

00:12:01 --> 00:12:03

This is the area of my prayer. Do

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

not mess around with it. In the most

00:12:04 --> 00:12:07

private of places, a place that kids don't

00:12:07 --> 00:12:08

run through,

00:12:08 --> 00:12:11

not everybody just sits there. She was able

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

to do that and the hadith says authentic.

00:12:17 --> 00:12:19

She kept praying in that. That was her

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

area until she returned back to Allah

00:12:23 --> 00:12:25

So your heart can be attached to the

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

masjid. May Allah make us of them. One

00:12:27 --> 00:12:28

last thing about the masjid. I love the

00:12:28 --> 00:12:30

masjid. May Allah make us all love the

00:12:30 --> 00:12:32

masjid more and more. Say I mean, lovely

00:12:32 --> 00:12:35

hadith. The prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam says,

00:12:38 --> 00:12:39

No Muslim

00:12:39 --> 00:12:42

who regularly attends the masjid, like you know

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

mountain. What does mountain mean? How do you

00:12:43 --> 00:12:45

translate mountain or whatan?

00:12:47 --> 00:12:48

How do you translate that?

00:12:49 --> 00:12:51

Your homeland in a way. Right? This my

00:12:51 --> 00:12:53

homeland. Your home court advantage is in the

00:12:53 --> 00:12:54

Masjid, Allahu Akbar.

00:12:55 --> 00:12:57

No one goes to the masjid frequently.

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

Except that Allah feels happy,

00:13:02 --> 00:13:04

looks forward for your coming to the masjid.

00:13:05 --> 00:13:05

Look at this.

00:13:06 --> 00:13:09

Just like how the person who comes back

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

from a long

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

trip and the family is all waiting for

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

that person. How excited are they?

00:13:16 --> 00:13:18

How much do they look forward to it?

00:13:18 --> 00:13:19

They cancel their meetings. They do all this

00:13:19 --> 00:13:22

to host the individual to greet them. That's

00:13:22 --> 00:13:25

how Allah is every time you walk to

00:13:25 --> 00:13:27

the masjid. Allahu Akbar. So let that be

00:13:27 --> 00:13:29

a moment of encouragement for all of us.

00:13:30 --> 00:13:33

Alright. Group number what now? 4.

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

4. Group number 4,

00:13:41 --> 00:13:43

2 people who love each other for the

00:13:43 --> 00:13:46

sake of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Simplify it

00:13:46 --> 00:13:47

for us.

00:13:48 --> 00:13:50

You see someone, you hang out with someone,

00:13:51 --> 00:13:54

and you love them for how respectful they

00:13:54 --> 00:13:55

are to Allah.

00:13:55 --> 00:13:58

You love them for their love to Allah.

00:13:58 --> 00:14:00

And when you love someone so much, may

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

Allah make us reach that level. We we

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

love Allah so much.

00:14:04 --> 00:14:06

You love Allah so much

00:14:06 --> 00:14:08

that anyone who loves Allah, you love them.

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

Even human being wise, we do that. Right?

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

You love someone

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

so much.

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

Method and example.

00:14:16 --> 00:14:18

Forgive us for the lines.

00:14:21 --> 00:14:22

And may Allah grant you

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

ease. So, you know, you're walking, I don't

00:14:25 --> 00:14:28

know, Kroger. You love the lions. The lions

00:14:30 --> 00:14:32

May Allah guide them to Jannah and everything.

00:14:32 --> 00:14:34

Then you see a guy who you do

00:14:34 --> 00:14:35

not know who he is.

00:14:36 --> 00:14:38

You don't know what city he lives in,

00:14:38 --> 00:14:40

but he wears a hoodie with a lion's

00:14:40 --> 00:14:42

logo. He's like, hey, what's up man? This

00:14:42 --> 00:14:45

Sunday. Right? And he's best friends forever because

00:14:45 --> 00:14:47

you love the lions and you love him

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

for loving

00:14:48 --> 00:14:50

the lions. Allah is the best of examples.

00:14:50 --> 00:14:52

There are people, they love Allah so much.

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

They see in the Masjid, I love you

00:14:54 --> 00:14:55

bro.

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

Why? Because you came to the Masjid. Show

00:14:57 --> 00:14:59

respect to Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. May Allah

00:14:59 --> 00:15:00

make us of them.

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

1 time, there's a great great man. His

00:15:04 --> 00:15:05

name is

00:15:06 --> 00:15:07

Abu He says,

00:15:08 --> 00:15:11

I entered the Masjid of. What Masjid is

00:15:11 --> 00:15:12

that?

00:15:12 --> 00:15:14

Damascus Masjid in Suriyya.

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

He says,

00:15:17 --> 00:15:18

There was like a young man,

00:15:21 --> 00:15:23

very beautiful white teeth,

00:15:23 --> 00:15:24

very cheerful,

00:15:25 --> 00:15:26

very beautiful.

00:15:28 --> 00:15:31

And this man, he's surrounded by people. If

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

they ever have a dispute, they go to

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

this man.

00:15:34 --> 00:15:36

Whatever he says, whatever he Wow, that sounded

00:15:36 --> 00:15:37

interesting.

00:15:37 --> 00:15:38

Whatever he says,

00:15:39 --> 00:15:41

people listen and they follow. So he said,

00:15:41 --> 00:15:44

I asked the people, who is this man?

00:15:44 --> 00:15:45

Who was this man?

00:15:46 --> 00:15:49

He's one of the top 4 Quran reciters

00:15:50 --> 00:15:51

at the time of the prophet

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

Remember, the prophet told us,

00:15:55 --> 00:15:58

Learn Quran from 4 people. Can you imagine

00:15:58 --> 00:15:59

the prophet's testimony?

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

One of these 4 is this man,

00:16:04 --> 00:16:05

So they said, this

00:16:06 --> 00:16:08

is. So this man says, Abu Khomeid,

00:16:09 --> 00:16:11

Khallas, tomorrow morning, I will come early right

00:16:12 --> 00:16:13

or a lot earlier than the salah.

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

Hopefully, I will find him coming, and I

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

will be the first one to say something

00:16:18 --> 00:16:19

to him. What is it? I'll tell you.

00:16:19 --> 00:16:22

He says, the next day I went

00:16:22 --> 00:16:25

I came early to the masjid. Guess what?

00:16:25 --> 00:16:27

He found them earlier than him. He thought

00:16:27 --> 00:16:30

he's coming early to receive him. He said,

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

He came before me, and I saw him

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

praying.

00:16:34 --> 00:16:36

So I waited and I waited until this

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

great man, what's his name?

00:16:39 --> 00:16:42

Finished his prayers. When he finished his prayers,

00:16:42 --> 00:16:45

I came from the front of him. Not

00:16:45 --> 00:16:46

to surprise from the back or tap on

00:16:46 --> 00:16:48

the shoulder, just come from the front. He

00:16:48 --> 00:16:49

saw me coming.

00:16:50 --> 00:16:51

Then I said,

00:16:52 --> 00:16:54

Then I told him ready to what Abu

00:16:54 --> 00:16:55

Hamed said? Ready?

00:16:56 --> 00:16:57

I told him,

00:16:59 --> 00:17:01

I love you for the sake of Allah.

00:17:01 --> 00:17:04

He saw someone who shows respect to Allah,

00:17:04 --> 00:17:07

talks about Islam, talks about the deen, answers

00:17:07 --> 00:17:10

people's questions, lifts people I'm sorry, people's hardships,

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

fixes problems. I love you for the sake

00:17:13 --> 00:17:15

of Allah. So Mu'azz asked him,

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

Allah, like,

00:17:18 --> 00:17:20

You love me for Allah's sake? Like no

00:17:20 --> 00:17:22

other reason, like you have a question. Can

00:17:22 --> 00:17:24

I ask you 2 questions? Right? Sheikh so

00:17:24 --> 00:17:25

and so, I love you for the sake

00:17:25 --> 00:17:26

of Allah, but I have 7 questions.

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

Right?

00:17:28 --> 00:17:29

Right? I love you for the sake of

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

Allah, but, can you help me out with

00:17:31 --> 00:17:34

my, resume? Right? There's nothing wrong with that.

00:17:34 --> 00:17:37

So wants to ask one question. You really

00:17:37 --> 00:17:39

love me just for the sake of Allah?

00:17:39 --> 00:17:41

Like just for the lion's jersey?

00:17:41 --> 00:17:43

Not because you saw my car and I

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

might donate something for you? He says, Allah.

00:17:46 --> 00:17:47

He's like, for sure, yes.

00:17:48 --> 00:17:50

Mu'ad asked him one more time,

00:17:50 --> 00:17:53

Allah. You really love me only for Allah's

00:17:53 --> 00:17:54

sake? He says, yes.

00:17:56 --> 00:17:59

Then he grabbed Mu'ad, grabbed Abu Hamid's clothing,

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

and he's and he brought him close. So

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

Mu'ad said, come here. He says,

00:18:04 --> 00:18:06

I have good news for you. What's the

00:18:06 --> 00:18:08

good news? I heard the Prophet

00:18:10 --> 00:18:11

say

00:18:12 --> 00:18:13

that Allah

00:18:13 --> 00:18:14

said

00:18:15 --> 00:18:17

No. Pay attention. That Allah said What did

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

Allah say?

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

I will definitely love the following 4 categories.

00:18:23 --> 00:18:25

See Allah How many of the 4 you

00:18:25 --> 00:18:26

wanna get?

00:18:27 --> 00:18:28

All 4. And that's your attitude inshallah and

00:18:28 --> 00:18:31

my attitude. Anything we hear about this, I

00:18:31 --> 00:18:33

want the highest level agenda. I want all

00:18:33 --> 00:18:35

of this as much as I possibly can

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

within reason, of course, and as much as

00:18:36 --> 00:18:40

your capacity goes. Number 1, I will definitely

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

love

00:18:42 --> 00:18:44

Those who love one another for the sake

00:18:44 --> 00:18:45

of Allah

00:18:46 --> 00:18:47

May Allah make us of them. Say, I

00:18:47 --> 00:18:49

mean, I'm not sure if I told you

00:18:49 --> 00:18:50

guys this or not, so bear with me

00:18:50 --> 00:18:52

if if you, heard it. But I I

00:18:52 --> 00:18:54

felt pretty bad, here.

00:18:54 --> 00:18:57

It was such a bad, bad fall, SubhanAllah.

00:18:57 --> 00:18:58

And what I mean is I fell in

00:18:58 --> 00:18:59

love with all of you guys for the

00:18:59 --> 00:19:00

sake of Allah

00:19:01 --> 00:19:03

Brothers, write note for your wife inshallah. Alright?

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

Are you okay?

00:19:05 --> 00:19:07

So I love you all for the sake

00:19:07 --> 00:19:10

of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, and may Allah

00:19:10 --> 00:19:11

make us of that 4th category

00:19:13 --> 00:19:14

And please, the QR code will be up

00:19:14 --> 00:19:16

inshallah for donations. Anyhow, listen.

00:19:16 --> 00:19:17

Alright.

00:19:29 --> 00:19:30

May Allah make us of them.

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

And the ones that visit one another for

00:19:35 --> 00:19:36

the sake of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. I

00:19:36 --> 00:19:38

came to visit you, check on you. How

00:19:38 --> 00:19:40

are you? No dunya. Nothing. Not that it's

00:19:40 --> 00:19:42

haram, brothers and sisters. I don't want you

00:19:42 --> 00:19:44

to be confused with that. But there are

00:19:44 --> 00:19:46

people that have such relationships with others. And

00:19:46 --> 00:19:48

sometimes sometimes,

00:19:48 --> 00:19:51

they actually avoid to have matters to make

00:19:51 --> 00:19:52

it as pure as possible. But there's nothing

00:19:52 --> 00:19:55

wrong with having matters. Last but not least,

00:19:58 --> 00:20:00

when and those who spend from their money

00:20:00 --> 00:20:02

for my sake alone. I love you. I

00:20:02 --> 00:20:04

love you. May Allah Allah love us.

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

Fantastic. Now, this is being called, oh, you

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

who love one another for the sake of

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

Allah, come under the shade. Who's standing in

00:20:13 --> 00:20:14

regret?

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

People that love the wrong people,

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

people that had the horrible friends, yes or

00:20:21 --> 00:20:22

no.

00:20:22 --> 00:20:24

That horrible friend is standing right there,

00:20:25 --> 00:20:26

and the guy is looking at him and

00:20:26 --> 00:20:28

looking at those who made it under the

00:20:28 --> 00:20:29

shade. And I could have been there, but

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

I used to make fun of these people.

00:20:30 --> 00:20:32

I used to call them haram police.

00:20:33 --> 00:20:35

Right? I call, okay, here comes the the

00:20:35 --> 00:20:37

the haram sister coming. Everything is haram, haram,

00:20:37 --> 00:20:40

haram. Used to mock and used to be

00:20:40 --> 00:20:42

sarcastic and look where she's at and look

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

where you're at.

00:20:43 --> 00:20:45

Now you regret not having that companionship. May

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

Allah not make us of those who regret

00:20:46 --> 00:20:47

that.

00:20:48 --> 00:20:50

That we're not present there because Allah

00:20:51 --> 00:20:52

I was searching in the Quran, maybe one

00:20:52 --> 00:20:54

of you can help me. No. Genuinely speaking,

00:20:54 --> 00:20:56

maybe one of you can help me. I

00:20:56 --> 00:20:57

searched a little bit. I won't say I

00:20:57 --> 00:20:58

searched a lot,

00:20:58 --> 00:21:00

but I'm trying to see throughout the day

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

of judgment which is the highest of levels

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

of regret.

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

So many times you hear,

00:21:07 --> 00:21:09

you heard that before. Right? I wish. I

00:21:09 --> 00:21:10

wish. I wish.

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

Sometimes you hear in the Quran, Right? Woe

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

to all of us. But

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

I don't know off the top of my

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

head anything more regretful in their judgment

00:21:23 --> 00:21:26

than the one who regrets hanging out with

00:21:26 --> 00:21:27

the wrong crowd.

00:21:27 --> 00:21:28

Hajib,

00:21:28 --> 00:21:29

what's the ayah?

00:21:31 --> 00:21:33

Close. But what's before that?

00:21:35 --> 00:21:36

You are right. But what's before that?

00:21:37 --> 00:21:38

Like, brother, what are they saying? Like, you're

00:21:38 --> 00:21:40

right, you're right, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Zach

00:21:40 --> 00:21:41

will take that advice.

00:21:41 --> 00:21:43

So what they're saying is that, oh, oh,

00:21:43 --> 00:21:45

woe to me, that I have such a

00:21:45 --> 00:21:48

friend. That is true. But other ayaat,

00:21:48 --> 00:21:50

woe to me, I did this, I did

00:21:50 --> 00:21:52

that. Woe to me, I never did this

00:21:52 --> 00:21:54

when I was supposed to. But when it

00:21:54 --> 00:21:56

comes to friends before woe to me, they

00:21:56 --> 00:21:57

do something.

00:21:58 --> 00:21:59

What what do they do?

00:22:01 --> 00:22:04

They they bite their hand. They're so angry.

00:22:05 --> 00:22:07

They're so angry. They bite their whole fist.

00:22:07 --> 00:22:10

Why? Why that level of regret unlike almost

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

anyone else?

00:22:14 --> 00:22:15

Because I chose to hang out with this

00:22:15 --> 00:22:16

person.

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

And why are these so much in pain?

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

Because they had another option.

00:22:21 --> 00:22:23

Because they were invited to a better circle.

00:22:24 --> 00:22:26

They were told, attend this event. They were

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

told, let's go to this potluck. Righteous, good

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

people.

00:22:29 --> 00:22:31

But they chose to hang out with the

00:22:31 --> 00:22:32

others, and that is one of the most

00:22:32 --> 00:22:34

regretful moments. May Allah not make us of

00:22:34 --> 00:22:35

them.

00:22:35 --> 00:22:38

So if you were in that position right

00:22:38 --> 00:22:39

now, no one is perfect.

00:22:40 --> 00:22:43

You saw what will happen. You heard what

00:22:43 --> 00:22:44

will take place to avoid it from the

00:22:44 --> 00:22:46

get go, inshallah. One of our teachers said

00:22:46 --> 00:22:48

something very nice. Ready for this? We're gonna

00:22:48 --> 00:22:50

test you. Ready Insha'Allah?

00:22:50 --> 00:22:52

Think of your, 3 best friends.

00:22:53 --> 00:22:54

Don't say their names.

00:22:55 --> 00:22:56

Halas, you have an image?

00:22:58 --> 00:22:58

Okay.

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

You're like between 34. I know. I know.

00:23:00 --> 00:23:01

Okay. These 3 people.

00:23:02 --> 00:23:05

If you're told on the day of judgment,

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

you will go

00:23:07 --> 00:23:09

wherever these 3 will go,

00:23:10 --> 00:23:11

Are you willing to go with them?

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

Some of you like, yeah.

00:23:15 --> 00:23:16

Some of you like,

00:23:16 --> 00:23:19

bro, I'm not sure This is the future.

00:23:19 --> 00:23:20

Answer the question.

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

Whatever your 3 best friends will go on

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

you'll be with them.

00:23:26 --> 00:23:28

If your answer is not yes,

00:23:29 --> 00:23:31

then it's time to adjust things. Either adjust

00:23:31 --> 00:23:32

them or adjust yourself.

00:23:33 --> 00:23:34

Right? May Allah protects

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

a lot of unfollows tonight. I can feel

00:23:36 --> 00:23:37

it from social media.

00:23:38 --> 00:23:39

For some reason, when people unfollow someone on

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

social media, they feel as if they filed

00:23:41 --> 00:23:42

for divorce. You unfollowed

00:23:43 --> 00:23:45

me. How how dare you. Alright? So may

00:23:45 --> 00:23:46

Allah make it easy for us. It's okay

00:23:46 --> 00:23:48

if you unfollow people. That that's

00:23:48 --> 00:23:49

group number?

00:23:50 --> 00:23:52

Group number what? 5. 5.

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

And a man whom a woman

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

has

00:23:58 --> 00:24:01

invited that man to commit that which is

00:24:01 --> 00:24:03

prohibited, to have an inappropriate

00:24:03 --> 00:24:04

relationship.

00:24:06 --> 00:24:08

That and she was of status and she

00:24:08 --> 00:24:09

was of great looks.

00:24:09 --> 00:24:11

She she's the one seducing him.

00:24:12 --> 00:24:13

But he tells her,

00:24:14 --> 00:24:15

I fear Allah. I can't do this as

00:24:15 --> 00:24:19

haram. Whether they verbally said it or their

00:24:19 --> 00:24:21

actions said it, They blocked that individual.

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

They,

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

did not accept that phone call. They tore

00:24:25 --> 00:24:27

apart that letter that they received.

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

They did not give them a chance to

00:24:30 --> 00:24:32

proceed in their seduction. May Allah protect us.

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

And

00:24:33 --> 00:24:36

this also applies to the women. When a

00:24:36 --> 00:24:38

man comes and tries to play a game,

00:24:38 --> 00:24:40

may Allah protect us to commit the haram.

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

And she says, no.

00:24:42 --> 00:24:43

I fear Allah

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

And this I pray to Allah. I pray

00:24:46 --> 00:24:48

to Allah. This also applies

00:24:49 --> 00:24:51

to social media stuff as well. As in

00:24:51 --> 00:24:53

someone inviting you to a website.

00:24:54 --> 00:24:55

How many times,

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

especially us brothers, forgive me, I'm not sure

00:24:57 --> 00:24:59

about the sisters, but I'm sure something equivalent,

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

a 100%,

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

We get these, spam messages of people inviting

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

you to this inappropriate website, right, on our

00:25:06 --> 00:25:08

social media. It's something customized

00:25:09 --> 00:25:11

to the men, and how filthy is that?

00:25:11 --> 00:25:13

And I'm sure something similar to the sisters

00:25:14 --> 00:25:16

of a link that is being shared to

00:25:16 --> 00:25:18

go to the Haram. It's a spam. You

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

never accepted them. It came out of nowhere,

00:25:20 --> 00:25:22

but you say leave the group or reject

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

that. May Allah make you of that group

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

who was able to reject because

00:25:27 --> 00:25:30

it cannot do not belittle how hard it

00:25:30 --> 00:25:31

can be for people, especially

00:25:31 --> 00:25:32

physically

00:25:32 --> 00:25:35

someone trying to seduce the other individual.

00:25:35 --> 00:25:37

I shared this maybe back in 2018

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

of a very interesting brother,

00:25:41 --> 00:25:43

We don't praise on Allah's behalf, but his

00:25:43 --> 00:25:46

story was remarkable. Our sheikh tells us a

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

story. He knows the brother

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

personally.

00:25:49 --> 00:25:50

This brother,

00:25:50 --> 00:25:52

our sheikh tells us,

00:25:52 --> 00:25:54

he went to New York, the sheikh, to

00:25:54 --> 00:25:55

give a lecture,

00:25:56 --> 00:25:57

and that was his second trip.

00:25:58 --> 00:26:00

When he went to the 2nd trip, he

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

asked, where is that brother from Al Maghrib,

00:26:02 --> 00:26:04

from Morocco? Where is that brother? He loves

00:26:04 --> 00:26:06

him a lot, the Sheikh. So they said,

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

Sheikh,

00:26:07 --> 00:26:08

that brother from Morocco,

00:26:09 --> 00:26:10

he's a multimillionaire

00:26:11 --> 00:26:11

right now.

00:26:12 --> 00:26:13

He's like multimillionaire.

00:26:14 --> 00:26:16

Like, last session, he was a,

00:26:17 --> 00:26:19

and he was like a multi negative millionaire.

00:26:19 --> 00:26:21

What's his story? He said, shit. His story

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

is unbelievable.

00:26:22 --> 00:26:25

One time in New York, as he was,

00:26:25 --> 00:26:27

you know, walking, he entered into a building.

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

He has like an appointment in one of

00:26:29 --> 00:26:30

the high rise buildings.

00:26:31 --> 00:26:33

And once he got to this elevator,

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

he made sure that he stands in a

00:26:35 --> 00:26:38

very respectful way and there were other men

00:26:38 --> 00:26:39

standing,

00:26:39 --> 00:26:42

and a woman who seemed to reveal much,

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

of herself, and she was very attractive, walks

00:26:44 --> 00:26:45

into the elevator.

00:26:46 --> 00:26:49

So others perhaps were staring at her, but

00:26:49 --> 00:26:51

that Muslim brother from Morocco was not. He

00:26:51 --> 00:26:52

looked away, looked down.

00:26:53 --> 00:26:55

Eventually, all these men,

00:26:55 --> 00:26:58

they left the elevator, and the brother floor

00:26:58 --> 00:27:00

did not come yet. So was that lady's

00:27:00 --> 00:27:02

floor, did not come yet.

00:27:02 --> 00:27:05

And then as he wants to leave, she

00:27:05 --> 00:27:06

asked him, please, I have a quick question.

00:27:06 --> 00:27:08

Quick question, if you don't mind me asking.

00:27:08 --> 00:27:10

I know it sounds awkward, it sounds outrageous,

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

but just let me ask you this question.

00:27:11 --> 00:27:13

From the brother of God knows his heartbeat.

00:27:14 --> 00:27:16

Right? Like, why did everybody to leave?

00:27:16 --> 00:27:17

Right?

00:27:17 --> 00:27:19

So she said, I know it sounds weird,

00:27:19 --> 00:27:20

but I have one question. Why did you

00:27:20 --> 00:27:22

not look at me the way others gave

00:27:22 --> 00:27:24

me that look? Why did you actually made

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

the

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

apparently, the conscious decision to look away?

00:27:28 --> 00:27:29

He said, because I'm a Muslim,

00:27:30 --> 00:27:32

and we're not supposed to, look in the

00:27:32 --> 00:27:33

sense of desire.

00:27:35 --> 00:27:37

Then she said, and I always wanted a

00:27:37 --> 00:27:38

man like that.

00:27:39 --> 00:27:40

I wanted a man not to look at

00:27:40 --> 00:27:43

me just out of desires and that nature.

00:27:44 --> 00:27:44

And

00:27:45 --> 00:27:48

she said, would you be able

00:27:48 --> 00:27:50

for me to hang out with you? Like,

00:27:50 --> 00:27:52

to be your my your boyfriend. I mean,

00:27:52 --> 00:27:54

you're my boyfriend. I'm like, I'm struggling. Imagine

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

him.

00:27:55 --> 00:27:56

Right?

00:27:57 --> 00:27:58

What did he say?

00:27:58 --> 00:27:59

For this one?

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

No. I still cannot.

00:28:01 --> 00:28:03

Why? Because there's Islam, I cannot, we have

00:28:03 --> 00:28:05

to be married and so on. She's like,

00:28:05 --> 00:28:08

I'm interested in Islam. Allahu Akbar for an

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

elevator ride.

00:28:10 --> 00:28:11

Who's that lady?

00:28:12 --> 00:28:14

She owned an entire floor

00:28:14 --> 00:28:16

and a corporation in that building.

00:28:17 --> 00:28:19

So now, where's that brother?

00:28:19 --> 00:28:20

Maldives

00:28:21 --> 00:28:22

Right?

00:28:22 --> 00:28:24

Right? He actually got married to her, they're

00:28:24 --> 00:28:26

married. I don't know, they have kids now.

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

What's the situation like? So that's when they

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

told the Sheikh, Sheikh, that brother, Allah.

00:28:32 --> 00:28:33

Right? Now watch all of you in the

00:28:33 --> 00:28:34

elevator.

00:28:35 --> 00:28:37

Doesn't work like that guys. Doesn't work like

00:28:37 --> 00:28:38

that. You know, like, write the sincerity, say

00:28:38 --> 00:28:39

I mean.

00:28:39 --> 00:28:40

Fantastic.

00:28:40 --> 00:28:43

So this is the 5th category. We'll do

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

6, 7, and then we'll take a break

00:28:45 --> 00:28:47

for Isha. What's category number 6?

00:28:48 --> 00:28:49

One who gives in charity.

00:28:51 --> 00:28:54

But there's something about that charity. It's not

00:28:54 --> 00:28:56

a normal charity. In what sense?

00:28:56 --> 00:28:59

This group number 6 out of 7, they

00:28:59 --> 00:29:02

gave a charity. 1 of their charities was

00:29:02 --> 00:29:02

so private,

00:29:03 --> 00:29:06

was so secretive that the prophet sallallahu alaihi

00:29:06 --> 00:29:08

wasallam to show you how secretive it was,

00:29:08 --> 00:29:10

that the left hand does not know what

00:29:10 --> 00:29:13

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

okay, love that. Sometimes you're gonna encourage people,

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

nothing wrong with it. But that charity, that

00:29:33 --> 00:29:35

group, may Allah make us all of them.

00:29:35 --> 00:29:37

Say, I mean, they gave that donation

00:29:38 --> 00:29:39

by trying to make it a little bit

00:29:39 --> 00:29:40

challenging number.

00:29:41 --> 00:29:43

Right? And and you know what's challenging for

00:29:43 --> 00:29:45

00:29:58 --> 00:29:59

I could have given something

00:29:59 --> 00:30:01

and I could have been under that shade,

00:30:01 --> 00:30:03

but I did not think it was worth

00:30:03 --> 00:30:03

it.

00:30:04 --> 00:30:06

People are sweating. People are devastated.

the atmosphere, bear the temperature, bear the hijab,

00:30:17 --> 00:30:18

may Allah grant you

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

because you can dare the heat of this

00:30:21 --> 00:30:23

world, but no one can dare the heat

00:31:49 --> 00:31:51

their blessings. They thought of how healthy they

00:31:51 --> 00:31:53

are. They thought how

00:31:53 --> 00:31:56

sinful they were and they felt bad for

00:31:56 --> 00:31:58

the sins and what their blessings or

There's obviously a few more categories,

00:32:25 --> 00:32:26
