Many of you have mentioned feeling desperation because you're on your

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

period in the last 10 nights, but I want you to see this as an

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

invitation. Do you know the status of someone who chooses to worship

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

Allah when they can use their free will not to do so consider the

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

status of someone who not only wants to worship, who wants to

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

make Salah and fast, but the only reason that they don't is because

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

Allah, Spano to ALLAH ask them not to in a particular time, what do

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

you think the status is of someone who doesn't understand why, who

00:00:27 --> 00:00:31

maybe understands for some things? For example, physically, our body

00:00:31 --> 00:00:35

goes through so much in this time, honoring our bodies, by nurturing

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

it, by resting, by giving it what it needs is an act of worship with

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

the intention. But if you don't quite understand the wisdom, and I

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

don't quite understand the wisdom, and yet we still do it for no

00:00:46 --> 00:00:50

other reason than our submission and obedience to our Lord, our

00:00:50 --> 00:00:54

trust that his wisdom is greater than our lack of wisdom, do you

00:00:54 --> 00:00:59

understand the level, the status that you have in the sight of

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

Allah, the Prophet psyhanam, taught that a person who does good

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

deeds and then has to stop because they get sick or because they

00:01:05 --> 00:01:08

travel those good deeds continue as if they were doing them. So

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

Inshallah, all that you would be doing, Inshallah, you're still

00:01:11 --> 00:01:13

getting the reward for all of that, even while you're eating

00:01:13 --> 00:01:16

during the day of Ramadan. And the Prophet peace be upon him, taught

00:01:16 --> 00:01:19

us that whether you are going through anxiety or sadness or the

00:01:19 --> 00:01:23

prick of a thorn, that you are forgiven for sins. So imagine

00:01:23 --> 00:01:26

every migraine, every cramp, every moment of bloating, every

00:01:26 --> 00:01:30

emotional intensity, being forgiven over and over for simply

00:01:30 --> 00:01:34

existing. So one, Inshallah, it's an invitation for your status to

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

be raised in your submission to Him. Two, it's a means of your

00:01:37 --> 00:01:40

rewards continuing inshallah and your forgiveness inshallah. But

00:01:40 --> 00:01:44

how can you connect to him in a different way? One focus on dua.

00:01:44 --> 00:01:48

Write a dua list. Say it everywhere, all the time, and any

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

emotion that you have that may come during your period,

00:01:50 --> 00:01:55

specifically, dive into dua with that demotion. To make the kid a

00:01:55 --> 00:01:58

remembrance of Allah, spanoa, taala. But contemplate it. Think

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

about it. Sit down where you feel comfortable. Instead of the time

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

of Salah, you can sit and just say Alhamdulillah, and think about

00:02:06 --> 00:02:09

what you're grateful for. If you sit with dhikr, remembrance of

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

Allah, Spano Tala, and really think about what you're saying and

00:02:11 --> 00:02:15

how it applies to you, it softens your heart so much. InshaAllah

00:02:15 --> 00:02:18

recite the Quran. There's a lot of discussion amongst the scholars

00:02:18 --> 00:02:20

for this issue. So if you follow the opinion that it's not

00:02:20 --> 00:02:25

permissible, focus on your dhikr and your DUA. Ibn Hazm and Al Bani

00:02:25 --> 00:02:29

are two well known scholars who support the position of the

00:02:29 --> 00:02:32

permissibility of the recitation of the Quran as well as entering

00:02:32 --> 00:02:36

the Masjid. So if you miss just terwier, you can go to the masjid.

00:02:36 --> 00:02:40

Listen, and while they're in Quran, sujood read the Quran, make

00:02:40 --> 00:02:45

Doha race to see this as an opportunity, an invitation to

00:02:45 --> 00:02:50

worship Allah in a gentle way, full of love and yearning and.
