00:00:00 --> 00:00:23
			We were at the point of the issue of fortitude or Sabha and as I mentioned to you server is not
simply to sit around doing nothing, because that's the usual understanding of server where people
say the word supper with a sense of helplessness. Like you know, the wizard casts up, somebody's got
an outer jacket, but that's a completely false impression about our
		
00:00:24 --> 00:00:40
			summer is completely and totally doing all that you can possibly do in a situation, making all the
effort using all resources, all strategies, and then having faith and trust only and only on Allah.
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:49
			That is also the meaning of Taqwa. Why did Allah Svarta This is Why did Allah subhanaw taala say
this Sabri was salah.
		
00:00:52 --> 00:00:59
			Effort first, then Salah in the in the meaning of namaste as well as the meaning of the linguistic
meaning of sunrise.
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:07
			Why do I say summer is summer means all effort where is my real for that?
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:14
			My drill for that is the fact that Allah subhanaw taala used this word Siberian people have summer
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:17
			for Mujahideen
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:28
			in three or four places in the Quran, Zakharova and other places, Allah subhanaw taala used this
word Siberian to mean Mujahideen. Now,
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:30
			if you look at who is
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:43
			the soldier fighting, in a just war, for the sake of Islam, protecting Muslims and protecting
communities, which may not even Muslim, but protecting them against oppression,
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:53
			who is more of a symbol of action and complete and total commitment than a soldier fighting in
battle?
		
00:01:54 --> 00:02:01
			Right. So it's total action and its commitment to the extent that the man is even putting his life
on the line.
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:27
			Those are the people that Allah subhanaw taala referred to as Sabaidee. Allah did not call the
people the mousseline. For example, people who are praying as arbery, Allah did not call anyone
else. Sabine, Allah subhanaw taala called Bucha he didn't summary and therefore my understanding is
summer means to completely and totally commit to the course of action that that results in goodness.
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:39
			But at the same time after that, to start in Salah why, because this is the in my understanding,
this is the third call of the call.
		
00:02:40 --> 00:03:09
			This is what saves you from arrogance. This is what saves you from feeling that success was a result
of my strategy. success was a result of my effort, success was a result of my victory came to me
because of what I did. That is a very big danger. So it saves you from ship from making yourself
shriek in the victory that comes from Allah subhanho wa Taala geladeira. So what saves you from that
this dua
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:28
			having made all the efforts the person is not relying on the effort alone the person stands over
Allah subhanaw taala and says your anatomy, success and failure is in your hands. I did what I could
do, please give me success. If I get success, it will not be because of my effort because my effort
is has no meaning.
		
00:03:29 --> 00:03:45
			Why do I still make the effort because this is your hook. Because you made this world a world of
cause and effect. So Allah did not tell us. For example, the famous quote of Omar will kappa Delano.
He said they said what is our college said Allah subhanho wa Taala
		
00:03:46 --> 00:03:51
			he said the bird leaves the nest every morning with an empty belly and returns with a full belly.
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:56
			So Allah subhanaw taala feeds the bird, but not in the nest.
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:09
			The bird leaves the nest, to go and find food and it finds food. But if the same bird sits in the
nest, does Allah subhanaw taala have the power to still feel the feed forward? Yes of course.
		
00:04:10 --> 00:04:13
			But Will Allah feed him Will Will Allah fetus but
		
00:04:16 --> 00:04:28
			Illa mashallah, you unless it is a hammer of Allah, Allah says the will of Allah otherwise, Allah
subhanaw taala does not feed the worst bird in the nest because this is not the sunnah to lie. The
difference between Hodor Artola and Sunnah.
		
00:04:29 --> 00:04:33
			The hydra Tala the holder of Allah subhanaw taala has no limits.
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:38
			The Sunnah of Allah also does not have limits, but the sooner the Allah comes with rules.
		
00:04:40 --> 00:04:47
			Can Allah subhanaw taala create a human being without parents? Neither mother nor father? Yes.
		
00:04:48 --> 00:05:00
			Anomalisa no mother or father can create a full grown human being from day one. The day he is born
is full
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:12
			Is it possible? Yes, Adam Melissa had never I was never a toddler he was never an infant. He was
never two years old. You know, he was never a teenager and when he was born, full grown man
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:21
			however a Salem his wife, who is the William cord, mother of our a man,
		
00:05:23 --> 00:05:25
			because she came out of out of Alyssa,
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:33
			see mother is the one you come out of there who is the within quotes the mother of our adolescence.
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:41
			So Allah is proving that all the rules that Allah made, Allah is not subject to those rules.
		
00:05:43 --> 00:05:45
			But having said that, I will say what I want.
		
00:05:46 --> 00:05:51
			Very good. So what must I do? Get married? No, I don't want a wife.
		
00:05:52 --> 00:05:53
			No problem then what you do?
		
00:05:55 --> 00:05:56
			Adopt.
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			But I want my own son and my progeny.
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:05
			Keep wanting it's not gonna happen. Because that is not so not to Allah.
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:16
			If Allah wants he can give, of course we don't we don't do we do not deny that? We don't say Allah
subhanaw taala created either Melissa once and He's incapable of doing it again. Now we'll know.
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:19
			But is this going to happen?
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:21
			No.
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:28
			Allah subhanaw taala created this world with certain rules, we call them the rules of physics.
		
00:06:31 --> 00:06:39
			The same rules What does not rule the fish is the rules of Allah subhanaw taala. So you call them
the rules of physics we accept when you call them the rules of Allah you don't accept
		
00:06:41 --> 00:06:47
			what is gravity, law of physics, who meant Allah's Mahanta
		
00:06:51 --> 00:06:51
			and so on and so on.
		
00:06:53 --> 00:07:07
			Summer is to understand this and therefore make your best effort and stand before Allah Now, you're
talking about the Sierra Vista salah, where do you see someone you see somewhere in his entire life,
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:10
			but one of the finest examples of summer
		
00:07:11 --> 00:07:20
			which illustrates this whole concept which I explained to you is the Batmobile. What did he do? He
made the maximum effort that he could possibly make,
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:24
			in terms of whatever resources he had,
		
00:07:25 --> 00:08:00
			he used them he took the advice of people, one of the Sahaba when they when he said when they came
to the field of bother and sort of said let us camp here, this Abbey gave to Sal Salah is this a
hook of of Allah are you communicating a order of Allah subhanaw taala or is this your assessment?
Let me say this is not a hug of Allah. Then in the Sirisha I have a suggestion if you accept
services, say say what is it he said let us cap at a different place where there was there was a
well there have there was a system they made later but there's also well some water he's a little
have the water in our control.
		
00:08:02 --> 00:08:06
			So we can behind the water so the water is in our control. When the enemy comes then we will not
have water
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:10
			accepted this hubby's advice
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:13
			he did not say are you?
		
00:08:14 --> 00:08:16
			Are you waiting? Why am I getting away No.
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:21
			Good advice handler will take the rest. So he did all of that.
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:25
			deployed the troops appointed Candace,
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:48
			head of the head of the mahadji route and so on and so on. And then what did you do? And then he
stood before Allah subhanaw taala they had made a shelter for him, he stood there and he made Salah
and he made dua, and he kept on asking Allah subhanho wa Taala geladeira who and you know the famous
dua brother is a Yeah, yeah, Allah. If these people die, they will not be anyone left on the face of
the earth to worship.
		
00:08:52 --> 00:09:05
			And he kept on asking Allah until our workers said Yara Salah Allah bus, I couldn't see the solar
cell in that state. Is a bus you're Rob has promised to Victoria.
		
00:09:07 --> 00:09:08
			Europe Wilson is
		
00:09:10 --> 00:09:11
			that enough?
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:19
			Of course Allah subhanaw taala sent and last month Allah mentioned that in the Quran, Allah subhanaw
taala said the Malaga.
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:38
			wa salam gave and the bad rubella as you know, the rest, as they say is history. So what is our
therefore is to make the maximum effort and stand before our last run into another aspect of summer.
Is that summer is to respond not to react.
		
00:09:39 --> 00:09:49
			There's a difference. When you are reacting. You are like a puppet. You your actions are in the
hands of the puppeteer.
		
00:09:50 --> 00:10:00
			I'm sure all of you have seen some puppet show at some point in time. If you haven't seen it, go to
YouTube. So you're the puppeteer. We had a screen who's got a strings in his finger
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:02
			us under the puppet and he does this and
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:06
			so the puppet is moving, who is actually moving the puppet.
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:23
			So when you are reacting, you have made yourself into a puppet, you react depending on what the
other person does, therefore, who has the control button who has the remote the other person.
		
00:10:26 --> 00:10:30
			So, reaction is usually or almost always produce only negative
		
00:10:31 --> 00:10:32
			responses
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:46
			to respond is not to react respond is to consciously take a decision to act in a certain way, not
because of what the other person did, but because of what you think is the best way to act in that
situation.
		
00:10:47 --> 00:11:01
			In the library, we have the issue of we know the story of the woman who used to throw rubbish in his
path and sometimes maybe we'll I'll have on him also something would fall. Every time he passed by
our house he would she would do this.
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:24
			What was his reaction? Nothing. He would just observe and he would continue on his path. What was
his response and differentiating between these two terms reacting and responding? What was the
response? The day the woman did not throw this? He turned around and came back and he asked where is
this lady? They said, She's not well, she's sick.
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:40
			He said Can I see her? They said yes, please come. He came to her and he said, I came to find out I
believe you're not well melasma the luckier you also are two started weeping she said I throw
garbage on you and you are making the offer me.
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:44
			There was an absurd you do what you do. I do what I do.
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:51
			Adrain karkhana was going somewhere.
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:55
			And an old woman she threw a stone
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:10
			so the soldiers grabbed her and they brought her to him. So he said to his treasure he said give her
a bag of 100 gold coins. So unbag of Russia was given to her
		
00:12:12 --> 00:12:12
			she went away
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:23
			so they asked him he said what is this he throw a stone at you whenever you're giving a gold coins?
He said what happens if you throw a stone at a tree which is full of fruit?
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:31
			If she does what she does, I do what I do, I can only do this
		
00:12:32 --> 00:12:37
			that's why we got the yellow This is an abbot of yours.
		
00:12:39 --> 00:12:43
			Who responds to something negative like this? You are robbing me.
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:49
			You already own handmade Pokhara all of us are
		
00:12:54 --> 00:12:59
			not reacting but responding. These are before these incidents.
		
00:13:01 --> 00:13:04
			Some of them are at the beginning of in Makkah.
		
00:13:08 --> 00:13:08
			elements going
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:14
			it's either old woman standing by the side of the road, she's got some luggage.
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:29
			So what luggage where she's going to go. I need someone to help me with this luggage I waiting for
somebody if I can find some, you know, laborer to carry this because I have to get to the place
where the caravans go.
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:33
			So as soon as I said, I'll help you he picked up the luggage.
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:43
			And now he's getting the luggage of hers and she's walking by side she says he asked her I said,
Where are you going? She said I'm leaving.
		
00:13:46 --> 00:13:50
			You said leaving mucca mucca. He said because this is big of a backlash.
		
00:13:51 --> 00:14:10
			There is this man called Mohammed. And he's preaching that we should not worship our gods and we
should worship only Allah. And he says I have grown up like you have been worshipping these gods all
my life, my family worship these gods and so on. And this man comes and is creating all this fitna
and this problem with the families and so on and so on.
		
00:14:11 --> 00:14:14
			That was the result of a continuous release of GTA she says all this
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:16
			he doesn't say anything.
		
00:14:17 --> 00:14:30
			Another one says you know you're such a nice person you help him with baggage and so on and she
gives him you know, maybe you'll be well absorbed. Finally there is the place she tries to pay which
I don't know so I don't need anyone to help you.
		
00:14:32 --> 00:14:34
			So she's at least send me your name. Muhammad.
		
00:14:38 --> 00:14:39
			Muhammad does anyone he does
		
00:14:46 --> 00:14:46
			he says that
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:52
			I don't have to worry well, if you are warmer than accept
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:55
			I accept Islam you will what you're saying has to be correct.
		
00:14:58 --> 00:15:00
			That's why I always say Islam spread because
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:03
			People fell in love with Muhammad Sallallahu sallam, Islam spread because
		
00:15:05 --> 00:15:09
			Islam did not spread because of theological argument when this woman is talking all of this stuff
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:23
			against Allah subhanaw taala all of this stuff in favor of her God did not argue with her. He didn't
debate with it. He didn't tell her you are critical. What nonsense. Are you talking about the
distribution of worshipping idols and so he didn't say any of that. He said nothing.
		
00:15:24 --> 00:15:25
			Only he's
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:38
			the one accept Islam without one single theological argument without one single debate without
wanting anything. Just the o'clock Obama, sir.
		
00:15:43 --> 00:15:51
			Seriously, Abdullah bin Salam are the Law No, the Medina, the very rabbi of the banana, the the
Jews.
		
00:15:53 --> 00:15:57
			He talks about His coming to Islam when he went to meet Robin Koba.
		
00:15:59 --> 00:16:02
			And he said, When I looked at his face, I knew this is not the face of our life.
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:06
			So the man who looks like this cannot tell lie.
		
00:16:08 --> 00:16:11
			He's not talking about physical beauty. He's talking about the radiance of truth,
		
00:16:12 --> 00:16:20
			which was also physic physically very handsome and very beautiful, but he's not talking about that
he's talking about the radius of Buddhism. This is the face of somebody who cannot realize
		
00:16:23 --> 00:16:54
			that is the meaning of Sabah This is what someone gets when now in their life is awesome so many
such incidents were because of his our people who are enemies of Islam. I already mentioned you
Harlequin volley number of the last each one of them there is a story I don't want to go into the
into too many details because we need to finish but point being that fortitude and server is a
expression of confidence. It's an expression of courage because somebody who's afraid cannot have no
patience. You have to immediately react.
		
00:16:55 --> 00:17:00
			Somebody comes to you you call him back. Somebody says you are a donkey and you prove it.
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:03
			Somebody says You are an idiot and you prove it.
		
00:17:05 --> 00:17:06
			Why forth?
		
00:17:07 --> 00:17:09
			If you're not a donkey, why do we have like a dog
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:16
			so seriously, that is something that we need to work on. Then we come to
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:18
			rely will come up
