My brothers and sisters,
I intended to talk to you about today
the most important thing
in our life, which is that
of achieving and attaining and gaining and getting
the forgiveness of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. Nakfirah.
There are only 2
things which can be called is
something which
the absence of which will cause harm.
It's not something which you like to have.
It's something that if you don't have it,
it will kill you or it will cause
you some major damage.
This is the rule.
Now in that context, there are only 2
the rule yats of the human being.
1 is Hidayah,
is guidance in this life
and 2 is Maghfara when he dies.
Is forgiveness of Allah
Everything else is
not daroori.
We need help, we need, wealth, we need
food, we need children, we need families and
whatnot and whatnot. But none of those are
the rules. If somebody does not have that,
if somebody is sick and remain sick all
their lives and dies, they will not go
to Jannah.
If somebody has no money and dies in
a state of poverty, they won't go to
Jannah
and so on and so on and so
on.
But if somebody dies without Hidayah,
without Islam,
that's it.
If somebody has Islam, but the way he
or she
lives that Islam or fails to live that
Islam and they do not gain
the forgiveness of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala when
they meet them,
there is no hope after that.
So he died in his life and
when we
die. The question is not about them. The
question is about me.
Because I'm alive.
That is why
the Sahaba used to say
and,
Abdullah bin Masood Al Anhu
is one of the famous ones. He used
to say, follow those who are dead
because they have achieved. So if they died
on iman, alhamdulillah, Allah forgave them, they are
on the right path. They are safe.
But those who are alive,
we don't know.
So we ask Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala for
forgiveness. And this is the the the dua
that our mother
increase her
and be pleased with her.
She asked Rasoulas Salam
this specific question with respect to.
She said,
if
I happen to find
if
I happen to find
what should I ask Allah? What dua should
I make?
And he taught her the dua which all
of us know.
You are the one who forgives.
You like to forgive. You are the forgiver.
You like to forgive, so forgive me.
See the see the beauty of this dua.
We have to reflect on
the language.
The Arabic language is difficult, I know, but
it is a miracle in itself.
See this Dua. This Dua is not saying,
allah, forgive me because
because
yeah. You like to forgive,
so please yourself.
It makes you happy, so be happy.
You like to forgive, so forgive me.
See the see the the the the this
is the essence of. Yeah. I don't exist.
I'm asking you, Arab, you do something with
me.
Right? Think about this.
Forgiveness.
There is a beautiful story
about this man
who was in the time of Musa alaihi
salaam. And Rasulullah mentioned this story in the
hadith behind this.
Now this man was so evil, so bad,
and he was so troublesome, such a big
nuisance to everybody that eventually
the people of the town, they threw him
out of town.
They they vanished him. He said, get out
of here.
So this man now is on his own.
He's in the wilderness somewhere and,
nothing happened to him and so so forth.
No one to take care of him. He
died.
Allah
sent Wahi to Musa alai Salam
and Allah
said that man which all of you throw
away, throw out from here, expelled him,
he has died in such as a place.
Go and do
his
and make his
and bury him.
Who is being sent through that?
Alaihi Salam. One of the greatest of the
prophets.
Not only that Allah says
to him,
announce it in the town that whoever accompanies
you, Allah will forgive all of them.
So obviously, the whole town now goes there.
They find the body of the man. They
do his.
They bury him. Musa alaihi salami is dua.
All of these people pray behind him.
When all of this is over and then
Musa alaihi salami is
he had this relationship with Allah Subhanahu Wa
Ta'ala.
So Musa Alai Salam said, yeah, Rab, I
did everything you told me to do. You
saw this. Now tell me why.
What is this thing? Because this man was
such a big nonsense, such a big nuisance.
We threw him out. And not only do
you send me to make his jannah, you
tell everyone to go and you forgive everybody.
Good for us but why?
Allah
said, Musa,
listen carefully and reflect on this.
Allah
said, yeah, Musa, when he was lying there
alone, there's no one there
And he cannot move. Whatever happened to him,
he was, you know, dying last
minutes of his life.
He said he called to me and he
said, if I
knew
if I knew
that by punishing me,
it would increase
your rank by an iota, I would not
seek seek forgiveness.
If I knew that by punishing me, it
would increase your
jalal and your jamal and your rank even
by an iota,
I would not seek forgiveness.
Then he says, oh, Arab.
If I knew that by punishing me, it
would make you happy even by an iota,
slightly happy.
I would not seek forgiveness. I would say,
like, punishment.
But I know that by punishing me, it
will not increase your and
you will not be happy.
So forgive me. So
Allah says I forgive him.
Now that is not the bottom line of
the story. The bottom line of the story
is who gave this man this tophir to
make this dua?
How did you get this from where?
This is our app.
That is why he said in this collab,
Again, reflect on the Arabic language.
Ask yourself a question.
If your own child you hear this in
language all the time.
Your children do something wrong,
so what do you say to your wife?
See what your son did.
Now if he does something good, see what
my son did.
Whoever does anything wrong, we distance them.
Yes?
See Allah
language. Say to them, oh, my slaves.
Slaves.
Say to them, oh, Muhammad
my
slaves. Who?
Those who have disobeyed me. Those who have
transgressed against themselves because we cannot have Allah.
When we when we do,
this is against ourselves.
My slaves. Who are my slaves? Not the
and
Those are the the my slaves are sinners.
My slaves, the people who make mistakes. My
slaves, the people who commit crimes. My slaves,
the people who disobey me. My my slaves
who are haram. My slaves who eat haram.
My slaves, but who turn towards me.
Those who have transgressed
against themselves.
Do not despair of the rahmat of Allah.
According to me, this ayat was complete by
itself. Idiot. But Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
Do not despair of the
mercy of Allah.
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala forgives all sins.
The ayat is completely aware. No. Allah is
Allah.
Verily, he is the one who is the
most forgiving, most possible.
My brothers and sisters, I ask my I
remind myself when you seek forgiveness of Allah
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
If this if Allah loves a slave, he
reminds him again and again of the sins
that he had committed in his life.
Allah has forgiven those sins. Alhamdulillah. If you
make tawah, make it complete. Insha'Allah. Allah said,
he will forgive, he forgives. But Allah reminds
the slave
of his sins or her sins so that
they can seek forgiveness again and again.
This is a sign of the mercy of
Allah.
We don't forget. We remind it again and
again.
Right? So very important. Seek forgiveness.
The Hadis of, of, from, Muslim Mohammed
and Mohammed. Rasulullah said that the one who
seeks forgiveness
again and again and most often,
Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
will remove him and take him out of
his difficulties
and will provide him from sources that he
cannot imagine.
And Allah
will become sufficient for him.
This hadith is the tafsir of the ayat
of
of Surat,
Atalak.
Atalakh.
Exact meaning.
And now, the wizard of Islam is saying
that with respect to tawah and istighfar.
So what does it mean? The connection between
istighfar and tawah and taqwa. Taqwa begins with
istighfar and tawah.
Allah said seek forgiveness and turn towards Allah.
Right? So we ask Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala
in these nights especially.
This is the time. Seek forgiveness.
Turn towards Allah
We ask Allah
to forgive us. We ask Allah
to open the doors of his forgiveness and
his mercy for us. We ask,
Allah, to turn to turn towards us with
mercy and to turn us and put us
on the path of righteousness and to keep
us there with
with steadfastness.
