Mirza Yawar Baig – Guard your Niyyah

			To love our evil hamdulillahi rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala shuffelin v one more city Muhammad
Rasul. Allah it right it was
		

			the Steven Kavita and cathedra.
		

			Sisters, we know the first studies in Bukhari and Muslim.
		

			The first of these in the RB Novia, which is the Hadees.
		

			Narrated by Omar Abdullah Delano, who said, as well as salam said, in our llama Lavinia
		

			that the reward of the deed, the reward for the deed is based on its intention.
		

			Now,
		

			you know, the Hadith, but what is it that we need to do?
		

			First of all, we have to see, what is
		

			what is it that
		

			constitutes near any action? How do we check the knee?
		

			Again, if I'm not around to Lolly, and these other books are so serene in the Mocha Dima, in the
introduction, he says, A Lithonia V will lead a man of equally acquired
		

			of equally as well as bodies that will coffee.
		

			He said, The HA the expression, the awareness,
		

			the bringing forward of the intention, frequently Am I in every action for people to call in all our
		

			speech have equally in all conditions? And why is that well, coffee, weather these things are
visible, open, or whether they are hidden inside.
		

			Now, if you think about this,
		

			it shows a extremely high level of self awareness.
		

			The Importance of Being aware of who I am, what I am, where I am, what I'm doing, why I'm doing it.
		

			All of this
		

			extremely important to be aware of all of these things.
		

			And just being aware is not enough, being aware with the intention of correcting the idea to do that
thing only for the sake of Allah.
		

			Let's see the Hikmah of this. If I am completely and totally and constantly aware of every speech of
mine, everything that I say, and I'm, I have this my mind that I'm doing this only to praise Allah,
then it is impossible to say anything which is haram to say anything which is a sin, because if I'm
saying something to please Allah, obviously, if I have a thought, for example, if I think of doing a
river or the amoeba or or slander of water or deceive somebody or tell a lie, or use any bad
language or anything, the woman the thought comes in my mind, the NIA is there to say, you are going
to do this to please Allah. Obviously, Allah is not pleased with these things. So I will not speak
		

			it. So it is like a gateway it is like a protection from sin. Similarly for action, every action,
whatever the action might be, immediately if by Nia is clear to me, that I say what I'm about to do
this, should I do it or not? obvious answer is no, I should not do it because this is a sin. And
vice versa if it is not, if it is not as if it's a good thing I Hamdulillah I do that with awareness
frequently, in every condition, I find myself in now what is the situation with conditions, there
are two situations one is if the condition is good, or Hamdulillah, then the position of the Muslim
is to be thankful. Every single Hamdulillah robola Allah subhanaw taala has given me well, and I'm
		

			thankful to Allah, if the condition is not good. If it is some there is some pains of suffering some
difficulty then immediately usual Allah, we ask we make a stuffer. We make Toba for the condition to
go because Allah subhanaw taala says Rama we know gonna perform for the what is to be done when
these difficulties make us different though and Allah subhanaw taala forgive, we do that, and we
have a summer we don't complain we don't cry, moan, groan complaining we behave with some see the
beauty of this now.
		

			What is it that corrupts the knee.
		

			Now the olive I have mentioned several things. Among them is and usually the most common one is the
need for and the desire for name and fame.
		

			All
		

			right, I should be known if I for example, if my resignation is good, I want to lead salah and the
intention there is so that people can hear my resignation.
		

			Right? If you make if you if you think many people think they are good speakers, they are actually
not but they think so. So you're if you think you're a good speaker, then you want to
		

			make a speech or give a lecture or bad or hope or something, because the intention is or I want to
impress people. So, this is one of the most important one of the most important thing one of the
most common, not important most common ways in which the NIA is corrupted by Shatta Wale you can
extend that in terms of charity in terms of Salah itself, somebody standing like this you know bent
down and the people also are looking at is crucial, but there is not so that that person is doing
that to show people the danger of that is that only Allah knows and only you know, right. So think
about is how tragic it is. For example, if the if the car if the Imam is residing in a beautiful way
		

			beautiful,
		

			but his intention is to is to please the people, he is committing shirk while standing on the masala
but the people themselves they are mashallah because of this Quran, they are getting a lot of shows
that people are doing well hamdulillah but this man, he's earning sin, he is committing Sheikh was
selling on Amazon, how tragic is that. So the first and foremost thing to guard against is
		

			this desire to please people are rare. The second one is where this is related also to some form of
material gain. So for example, the Hadith, or the Imam is giving a hotbar and he's seeing in the in
the, in the in the crowd, he sees the president of the machine, he's seeing the treasure or the
magic, he's seeing this person who is a millionaire, that person who's a big businessman and so on
and he knows the business is haram he knows that this is billionaire is doing something and he but
he will not mention those things. I'm not saying he should not in any case, he should not take the
person's name and mentioned but saying for example, that interest based banking is haram or not
		

			declared war, because this person sitting there is a banker.
		

			So, now you have a
		

			hidden desire there you know I was not so let them not be displeased because they will give me some
gift or some kind of thing maybe they give me a raise make me a head of our supremium or
		

			god knows what their luck with everything. So, that is the second one Biggie which is looking
forward to some material gain
		

			from the people instead of pleasing Allah smarter, these are the two main things I mean, there are
many other smaller things that they have mentioned. But these to name and fame and money. Now what
to do
		

			oh my god, he mentioned I made a very beautiful give a baby for example, he said
		

			if the NIA at the beginning of the action, and the near at the end of the action is the same then
Allah Allah subhanaw taala will forgive whatever comes in between Now what does that mean? It means
that you began the action with a good day obviously I mean nobody will begin with a bad day. So
begin with a good idea Allah subhanaw taala should be pleased with me. Now when the action is
finished check your knee again if this if the if the near the still the same that hamdulillah Allah
should be pleased with me then you have another other law says that we're not in our favor. He said
that in between if the near and dear then inshallah Allah subhanaw taala will forgive but if the
		

			beginning is good, and at the end you find yourself as this one Allah You know, I went off somewhere
else. Now I my my my my mind is where all this source is. Then he said making stuff aren't always
wajib otherwise your action is not accepted Allah
		

			will remove this action so we reject this action. So it's very important to keep checking the near
again and again. Some of them are given a very nice example they said that, imagine that you are
going through a big market sales, a lot of people milling around here or there and you have money in
your pocket, you got your wallet, you got money in your pocket, how will you go through that fear?
You will have one hand on that pocket. Right? You will not you won't leave it alone. You won't get
distracted by the people because there are big pockets and if you get distracted, they will steal
your money.
		

			So your car one at least one part of your brain is against you. That is my is my money safe. So the
Obama said that this is the way we must guard our near constantly keep on checking is my near safe
or not? Is it being corrupted by shatta is somewhere is it going away as to say this time
		

			You know, you don't say I am doing it to please even the one who's doing it won't say that. But that
is what is happening is that and as I said, only Allah knows, we don't know nobody else can know.
And that is the reason why it's so dangerous. It's so so important to be constantly aware.
		

			And this is the beauty of Islam see the degree the granularity to which this Congress between
thought and feeling and speech and action. All of these must be in Congress, then inshallah we're
safe. But if these things if there is a dissonance between them, that the thought is something and
then the species something else and the action is something else, that this is a sign of never, we
ask Allah subhanaw taala to cure that. We ask Allah subhanaw taala to
		

			fill our hearts with His last with cluster Nia with the sincerity of intention. We asked him to
surrender to protect our Nia we asked him to surrender to protect us from the from the cupola the
shutter, to protect us from the Vasa associated to protect us from all forms of corruption. whatever
actions we have, he asked us to accept them and put Baraka in them. And to reward us it gave him his
majesty and this was a lot on the military while he was grumpy
