Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
smilla rahmanir rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa Salatu was salam, Allah sherfield MBA with mousseline
mohammadu Rasulullah, sallallahu alayhi, wa aalihi, wa sahbihi wa sallam Sleeman Catherine kathira from Nevada
My dear brothers and sisters, may Allah subhanho wa Taala bless you and keep you always in his protection from all forms of
evil from all threats that which you know and that which you do not know
Allah tala bless you and always be pleased with you and enable you to do things which ensure the pleasure of Allah subhanho wa Taala I remind myself when you there is absolutely nothing in life,
absolutely nothing in life
which is worth angering Allah subhanaw taala for
there is nothing in life which makes it
worthy to do at the cost of the anger of the ad the cost of the displeasure of Allah.
And that's for a very simple reason and the reason is, that there is nothing in the world which lasts
nothing lasts, everything ends.
Allah said, mama in the Columbian photo, Mama in the La hubback,
Allah subhanaw taala said which means whatever is with you will perish will finish will end
and whatever is with Allah will last.
So, it makes no sense to acquire something that you will lose any way at the cost of something which never ends at the cost of something which you will never lose, if you get that
and that is why we have these lectures and these teachings which
the purpose or which the purpose of all of them is the same which is how to practice them in our life.
This class on a class of the Almighty
we dealt with some Ayat of Surah 200.
And inshallah, we will deal from this lecture onwards with the ayat of Surah Al Furqan. And I asked Allah subhanho wa Taala to make this a means of higher and Baraka for us. So that we may learn, and we may practice these things in our life. Just think about it and reflect that, why does Allah subhanaw taala have to mention specific behaviors, specific character traits, specific matters and things about our dealings with other people?
Why does Allah have to mention that in such detail, right in my new detail, Allah is explaining things for us. So that we learn to live our lives in a way with beauty and dignity and grace and peace and harmony and tranquility, within ourselves, with our families, with our neighbors, in our societies and countries.
The Muslim must become the fundamental source for all goodness. That is why Islam came. That is what Allah told us about us. Allah said quantum chromatin rejet leanness, Allah said that you are the best of people.
That's a Holly.
That is a man on a Harley. That's my dream bike. A Harley Davidson make draw that one day I start I get one and I and I ride around in a Harley Davidson on a Harley Davidson.
So to come back to this, the purpose Allah said you are the best of people and you have been extracted you have been selected for the benefit of people leanness benefit of all humanity and by inference by definition, benefit of everyone who exists. All human beings, all birds and mammals, all insects, all plants, all rivers and seas, the air, the atmosphere, everything must benefit
From the presence of a Muslim in the midst, and if that is not happening, then there is something seriously wrong about how we understand Islam. And how we
represent Islam
is a great tragedy that the religion which came with specific instructions, with a specific focus on the benefit of the whole world today has become a religion which is hated by everybody. Everything is all your fault. No, it's not all your fault. It's, it's very much the vault also of the propagandists, and all the Islamophobic people, and all of their racism and all of their hatred, but believe me, it's also our responsibility.
Because neither you nor I can say that everything they say about us is wrong.
And some very painful truths in what they say about us. So let us focus on ourselves, we can't change them, we that's not in our power. What we can do is to change ourselves
in such a way that every time anybody says anything hateful about Rasul Allah, Salah, anytime anyone says anything hateful about Islam, or about Muslims, and about our culture, and about our habits, and about our beliefs, and about our behavior and our speech, there should be a counterpoint that the world can look to and say, Now, hold on a second, you are saying this about Muslims. But this is another picture of Muslims. And we're not talking about a picture that is 700 years old, or 10, or 1000 years old. You're not talking about the time of Rasulullah sallallahu sallam, we're not talking about the, the this kingdom or that we're talking about now.
About now.
That is our goal. And that's our challenge. That's the whole point of the lectures of life of the moody o'clock is what people see.
My brother sisters, we know this and many times we have heard this over and over again. You've heard it from me and you I'm sure you've heard it from millions of people.
And that is that
our prayers, our Salah, is inside the masjid, or is inside our homes.
Generally speaking, people who are not Muslim, do not come there.
By
fasting,
nobody knows. If I'm fasting today. You don't know that. Nobody knows that. except Allah subhanaw taala that's what Allah said. So mu Li wanna GB Allah said the fastest for me and I will reward it.
So that is secret. Zakat we give to Muslims
Hajj, we do with our other Muslim brothers and sisters, there is no non Muslim there at the time of Hajj.
Now, of course, Hajj videos are available, so non Muslims can see them on a video but what? Where is the, the essence of hygiene, the feeling of hygiene, and so on and so forth? I mean, obviously, you can't, you can't get that on television. You can't get that in a video anyway. You can't even get that even if you are there, unless you are a Muslim because that is all about being one of and one with the community. And if you are not Muslim, even if you are there, you are in a camp.
I mean you How are you? How are you going to link to what is happening there unless you believe in Islam?
So by and large as far as our about that, and as far as our worship is concerned, non Muslim brothers and sisters have no access to that. What do they have access to? They have access to you and me as we drive our car.
And maybe even more when we park our car. This is one of our major problems worldwide. We are united we have so many different.
We have so many different sects in Islam. But there is only one sect as far as carparking is concerned
that
people have access to that people are seeing that people. Why do you think most people object when you want to build a Masjid in any residential and locality because of parking because of how Muslims parked their cars.
It's very shameful. It is very shameful.
So we will have access to that people are seeing how we park our cars. People are seeing how we drive people are seeing how we deal with them in our businesses when they come to buy something foreign from us. Do we deceive them? Do we lie to them which it do we deal in things which we know are Haram.
We are Muslims who have shops where they are selling tobacco, where they are selling * magazines where they are selling beer, alcohol, where they are selling pork. And then if you tell them this is haram, they have lotteries. And if you tell them Allah has privated pork Allah is bribing
addictive substances. So there goes your tobacco
product, private and harmful things. There goes your * magazines and tobacco allows privated alcohol, there goes your beer. Allah subhanaw taala has private gambling, there goes no lottery tickets that Why are you in this business? Why are you doing that? is a no no, no, no, no, no, I'm not selling all of this to Muslims, I'm selling it only two strips in.
This is your understanding of Islam, that you think that Islam is something which authorizes you to spread corruption around yourself. As long as that corruption is being spread to non Muslims. This is what you think Islam is.
If that is what you think Islam is, and believe me you are the islamophobes dream come true.
And you have nothing to do with Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
If you don't, if you don't accept what I'm saying, Are you with me then find me one single instance in the zero prasada salon, where Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam caused harm to a non Muslim or permitted somebody to cause harm to a non Muslim.
In one of these nebuchadrezzar of Zen, if you believe in Allah and the Day of Judgment, treat your neighbor
with generosity and with goodness.
Treat him with honor. He didn't say treat your Muslim neighbor, he treat your neighbor, whoever the neighbor might be the nearby neighbor is a Jew, my neighbor is a Christian, my neighbor is a Hindu, my neighbor is a Sikh, my neighbor is an atheist, it doesn't matter if he is your neighbor. Then that neighbor has a right on me. They have a right to be treated
with honor and with dignity.
Number one, if you believe in Allah, and you believe in the last day, in the Day of Judgment, treat your guests with dignity didn't say to Muslim guests with dignity.
Which we pass it with grace.
Whoever the guest is.
People have rights on us. And I wish him said Allah will not forgive the person unless the one who's right you violated forgives you. So please don't even get don't even go there.
Right
now brother and sisters, this Deen is beautiful. It came for the benefit of everybody. It did not come to harm anyone or anything on the face of the earth.
That is not the reason why Allah subhanaw taala sent Islam so that we can harm people. No, Allah sent Islam so we can benefit people. So if you are doing a business in which you are selling harmful things to society, not just Muslims, then your business is haram, your business is prohibited. That income from that business is prohibited.
That is what you are showing to people you are showing to people that you are a B despite the fact that you are a Muslim, you are dealing in substances, which cause corruption in society.
This is what people are seeing. People are looking and people are seeing your speech, especially when you're angry.
Everybody speaks sweetly when you're happy. But when you're angry, what happens?
Do you rave and rant? Do you curse?
Do you use profanity?
Do you go completely Berserk?
If you do, people are seeing that. And if you don't,
people are also seeing that.
Right? They're not only seeing something which is negative design something which is positive, they are seeing what we show them.
So what is the picture we are presenting to the world?
This is the meaning of the clock. People do not see me praying but they will see how I treat my family. They will see how the wife treats the husband how the husband treats the wife how they treat the children, what is the example before the children
right?
People see all of this
what do we show them
and that is why these lectures on a clock of the Almighty so that we can look at ourselves and we can bring about the changes that are necessary.
If you are living alive or if I'm living a life
where no changes are required.
Not saying that every life needs to be changed. Maybe you are living a beautiful life which does not need to change. I know some people like this
who Allah Allah, Allah knows them better than I do, but at least as far as I know
can see there is really nothing in that person that needs to be changed. May Allah bless them. May Allah subhanaw taala give them Mr. Carmack, May Allah keep them firm on the path that they are all.
But if we are not like that,
then what must we do?
We must bring about changes. And that's the reason why as you know, at the end of his lecture, I remind you and I find myself to say, what is the one thing that you will start doing as a result of this lecture? What is the one thing you will stop doing as a result of this lecture, and what is the one thing that you will continue to do with great confidence and with more consistency than you used to it, then you used to do it because now you know that this is the right way to do right way to go.
Now, brothers sisters,
it does not require an explanation, to realize that the road can only take us to the destination that it connects with.
And, you know,
if I want to go to Boston, from where I am,
then I have to go east.
And if I want to go to New York, I have to go west.
Now, if I'm traveling West and I want to read Boston, it's not gonna happen unless I can go right around the world and come back from the come out from the other side.
So I need to change direction. So any rail any road can only lead
to the destination that it connects with. If we don't want to go to that destination, then we need to change the road
not merely make dua for a different destination, while speeding along down the same road.
This is the point I want to make too, because a lot of people are under the mistaken impression to think that if we just make this drop, and we're still many people tell somebody else. Chad, please make dua for me that Allah has given me that. Well, what is that?
You want either you ask Allah.
You want some third party to make dua for you to get Hidayat when you do have no desire for you that you don't want to do, you don't even want to make dua for that.
And you weren't allowed to give you today.
So, these lectures are all such. And such reminders really are in the nature of signposts along the road, telling us where we are headed.
And announcing exits, which we can change to big which we can take to change direction.
So if I'm headed down
the road to or I think I'm going to Boston
and I see signs for New Haven
and I see signs now for New Jersey
then what do I say?
I say I'm in the wrong day I'm on the wrong I'm on the wrong road because the road to Boston from where I am, I should not be seeing signs for New Jersey. If I'm seeing signs for New Jersey it means I'm going in the opposite direction. So what must I do? Let me find the exit.
next exit I take the exit I make a U turn I get back on the road in the opposite direction, which starts showing the signs for Boston design. I see design for Wooster and I say okay, I'm I'm on the right track towards Boston right.
Now, please remember,
I remind myself when you
like it happens on the highways,
there are exits and there are exits and there are exits until
we finally come to the target
and after the job, there are no exits.
Once we go through the target
then we are bound
to get to the destination that comes after that target.
So finally,
along the road, we are getting all the signs all the signposts all the exits, we realize we are on the wrong road.
But still we don't take any exits. We do not change direction. Finally there will come a time when we reach the last target. And after that there is no exit until we reach the destination that we chose.
And remember
the one who ignored all the exit science
cannot complain that he had no chance to get off the road.
He had all the chance in the world, he decided not to take it,
he decided he chose to stay on the road. And then he reached wherever that road was going
on, let us reflect and introspect. So that we can take the right exit
transistors, it is extremely important for us to do that, because without that we will be
we will be stuck with the wrong exit. And if that happens, and really, there will be no help.
ask Allah subhanaw taala to save us from that situation and to help us to take the right exit, so that we can be in a place where Allah subhanaw taala wants us to be
abundant sisters, the greatest
asset that we can have
is the US but it is the the glory, the magnificence the power, the the the greatness of Allah subhanaw taala in our hearts
This is the greatest
The greatest wealth that we can possibly have the Asmath of Allah in our hearts.
How do we get that?
Why is that? Why am I saying it's an asset to me? Why is it an asset?
It's an asset because of two things. Number one,
it is protection from sin.
The person whose heart is filled with the glory and magnificence of Allah subhanaw taala cannot possibly be cannot possibly consciously do something which he knows, displeases Allah.
I mean, the two are logically incompatible, right?
He cannot be saying that I know and I realize the greatness and glory of Allah my art is filled with the Asmath of Allah Spano Dada, and with love of Allah subhanaw taala. And yet, I am consciously dealing in interest with where Allah subhanaw taala promised war against the one who deals in interest.
If I realized the glory and magnificence and greatness of Allah subhanaw taala, would I want to go to war with him?
Really, we need to ask ourselves and check our email.
Do I really have in mind?
I think I'm Muslim. Is it true?
Is it really true?
Because I have this I claim that I have this great glory of Allah in my art.
Yet ideal
in interest
I learned on or borrow on interest.
As a result of which I have accepted a declaration of war from Allah. My name by default was in the list of Olia of Allah because Allah said Allah Who will you let me know Amano? Allah says Allah is the Wali of all the believers.
So my aim by default was in the list of the Olia of Allah.
in that list, somebody has more status, somebody has no status. Forget about all that. As far as you are concerned, if you are, if your name is in the list of the earlier of Allah, even if you are the last human being on that list, you are still a value of Allah. And if you are a value of Allah, believe me my brother and sister, Jana mazara. Manu, there's no way we're gonna dive in fully. How is Allah going to put somebody who is is really in the janin when Allah subhanaw taala promised and then allow when you live in armano euregio home Mina Zuma de la Lu.
Allah is the Valley of the believers and he takes them out from darkness into light. He takes them out from Jan Nam into Jan. He takes them out from his guidance into guidance. He takes them out from the list of people he's angry with and put them in the list of people is happy with.
So default setting for all believers in sha Allah is worthy of Allah
when you join
To deal in interest, you said, by your action,
by your action, you said, I'm not interested in that list. I'm going to put my name in the list of the enemies of Allah.
Because Allah declared war on the one who deals in interest, what do you call the one? Who is at war with you? You call that person your worry. You call that person, your friend, your helper, your protector, your supporter? Is it really true?
Is that really true?
That's why I always say, there's only one person in the world you can fool. And that is yourself.
You cannot fool anybody else. You can fool yourself, but I suggest you don't.
So if the heart is filled with the glory and majesty of Allah, you will never do this. And if you are doing this, then check your heart and say who is allowed to me?
Who is allowed to me Do I understand glory and magnificence of biology Lalo.
Check that because now you are on a road and you are getting an exit sign after exit sign you're getting a sign to signpost which is showing you that this road is leading to a place that you don't want to go to.
If you continue to remain on that road,
the toll gate will come.
And what is that toll gate? A toll gate is your and my death. And when that toll gate comes then there is no change.
A group of
tribal Arabs, Arabs came from salah
and they said you are sola. When is the day? When is the day of judgment?
Look at the group. There was a young boy with them. As soon as Adam said, If Allah gives this young boy a long life, then the day of judgment will come for every hour. Every other one of you before he dies.
What day of judgment is he referring to? He's referring to the day that they die. The day I die is my day of judgment. On that day I will know if I'm going to Jana or Johanna actual Jana or Jana will happen when I meet Allah subhanaw taala on the Day of Judgment ask Allah Allah Allah Allah agenda, asking for protection from the fire Allah Hi, my name is Nana Alma de la mina
Hillel Jana Tamara Aziz, we have a fun

even though
I will go to Jana only on the Day of Judgment, I will know whether I'm going there or not. The day I die.

Now, brothers and sisters fill your heart with the glory and magnificence of Allah.
The first thing it does is it protects you from sin, it protects me from sin. The second thing it does is it gives you tremendous confidence because the heart which is filled with the glory and magnificence of Allah cannot have the fear of any one or anything else in it. It cannot fear any human being. It cannot fear any creature. It cannot fear any circumstance. A heart which is filled with the glory and magnificence of Allah is not afraid of korona is not afraid of economic collapse is not afraid of political changes. It is not afraid of anything on the face of this planet. That does not mean that you don't take precautions against Coronavirus you do because this is also part
of Islam to do that which is beneficial and it is beneficial for you and for others for you to take precautions against Corona so be careful. Wash your hands wear masks, maintain social distance don't go out unnecessarily. Avoid all places where people congregate. Don't worry even if the lockdown is lifted in your country. That is a political decision. That is not a medical decision. It does not mean that the Coronavirus has disappeared. It does not mean that
That you are not in any danger. The danger is still there, it is still present. Be careful about that.
Don't go to big gatherings don't gather together, no matter what the law says the law can say, you can have 100 people 1000 people together, please don't go, don't go and don't join those gatherings, not because you are afraid not because you fear that Alhamdulillah Your heart is filled with the Asmath of Allah subhanaw taala you do not fear korona but you are doing it because this is good sense. Because this is what Allah subhanaw taala told us to do. And this is what our solar system taught us to do, which is to do that which is beneficial. And to stay away from that which is not beneficial. You're not afraid of economic collapse. But that does not mean that you are extravagant
in your spending, it does not mean that you have no savings, it does not mean that you have no investments, no, you have all of that. What it means is that you will not invest in something which is doubtful, you will not invest in something which is haram which is prohibited.
Right, the heart which is filled with the knower, and the glory and magnificence of Allah cannot simultaneously be filled with stress cannot simultaneously be filled with distress cannot simultaneously be filled with sadness cannot fire taneous Lee be filled with fear cannot simultaneously be filled with depression.
Because that heart is filled with the knower and glory and magnificence of Allah subhanaw taala. It's hard which is happy which are hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen.
We will come and tell you what happens if this government falls another government another party's elected and they those people are anti muslim, what do you say? You say?
Whoever is elected or not elected, cannot even take a breath cannot even take one single breath without the will of Allah.
That is the one I worship
who can harm me
who can harm me who can harm me against the will of Allah. If Allah does not want me to be harmed who can harm me and if Allah has written something for me who can stop it from happening?
And that is reason why Rasul Allah is Allah values Salaam said in the Hadith, he said that of all the people, all human beings and jinn,
from the first of them to the last of them, meaning every single one of them ever created. All the good ones and the bad ones, including all the ambia and rustle all the prophets and messengers, including all the kings and all the dynasts
including all the poor knowledge, including all the learned and the ignorant, ignorant, including all the strong and the and the and the weak, including everyone and everyone, if they all connected together in one place in one medine in one field. And simultaneously, if they asked Allah subhanho wa Taala
for every single desire in their heart,
everything,
material non material, physical, spiritual, moral, emotional, every single desire in their heart, if this simultaneously asked Allah subhanaw taala, for all of that together in one voice, and Allah gives it like can give it to them if you want because there is no end to the treasures and the Holy Spirit and the power and the glory and the majesty of IRA.
If they all ask, together, from the first man in the first gen to the last man in the last gen, they ask Allah subhanaw taala together in one voice for everything they want every desire and Allah gives it all to them.
It will not decrease from the treasures of Allah, even as much as not decrease even as much as the water that may stick to the tip of a needle. If that needle is tipped in the ocean and remove.
Try it and see.
Try it and see you may not be near an ocean but take a cup of water.
Same principle, take a needle
division, digit up, see how much water there is on the tip of that needle.
And now we shall Islam did not say that if Allah gives all of this, it is equal to the regional he said it is not even equal to that.
This is Allah Subhana Allah
that is the one whose glory and majesty if it comes into our heart inshallah,
then it will drive away everything negative.
And it will protect us from sin and it will give us enormous confidence.
live in this one,
sister, if you are Muslim, live with confidence, live with happiness.
Live in a way where you can help people.
never complain. Never be sad. Never be afraid.
Stand strong.
ask Allah. Because only Allah likes those who ask. Factor Allah into your life, because he is in it anyway.
ask Allah subhanaw taala geladeira be pleased with you and never to be displeased, as doTERRA to help you in ways that you cannot even imagine from sources you cannot imagine, I asked Allah to give you in ways that you cannot imagine. masala la la ville Karim, Allah Allah He was savage made erotica, Rama, Rama and before we go over to remember, the purpose is to bring about change in our lives. So think about what is one thing that I don't do now which I need to start doing, what is one thing which I
am doing now which is negative, so I'm gonna start doing it and what is one thing which I am doing now, which is good. So therefore I continue to do that consistently unconsciously. Just like Milan karate.
