Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakato.
In Alhamdulillah Narmada who
want to be here at our curl rally when we let him in surely I'm fusina Mensa Dr. Molina, may Allah, Allah, Allah,
Allah, Allah. Allah Allah Allah Allahu la sharika lahu Anna shawanna Mohammed Abu Rasul Allah sallallahu taala without a bashira one Avira the IE Neela law he is and he was the Raja monniera on my bad.
My dear brothers and sisters,
I remind myself I knew
that Allah subhanaw taala
informed us about a deal.
He informed us about a transaction that has taken place.
And he confirmed his part of the transaction.
This is a transaction This is a deal
that has taken place between the moment in the believers and Allah Allah Allah.
And Allah subhanaw taala confirmed his part of the transaction.
And what is this transaction? Allah subhanaw taala said that he is sold his gender to us.
Allah subhanaw taala said that he sold his gender to us
and our end of the bargain for what? In exchange for our lives and our wealth.
So what is this deal? The deal is that the agenda of Allah subhanho wa Taala has already been purchased and what it has already been sold to the believers in exchange for their lives and their wealth.
How great is His mercy Jalla Allah Allah, that he chooses to call what is really his as ours, and he even accepts it in exchange for his gender.
Imagine what his life is ours is his life is ours, then we should be able to live as long as we want, and there should be no time of death for us. If this life is ours, then we should be able to live as healthily as we want. There should be no sickness for us, if this life is ours, and we should be able to lead this life with enormous amount of success in this world as we wish there should be no failure for us. And if this wealth is ours, then we should be able to increase it to the extent that we want without any problem, because it is ours, we can do what we want with it. If this wealth is ours, then we should be able to protect it without any problem for as long as we
want, and nobody should be able to take it from us. And if this wealth is ours, then we should be we should have the freedom to give it to who we want and hold it back from who we want without any question.
Yet, even though this life is not ours, even though this wealth is not ours, even though the life has been given by Allah, even though the wealth has been given by Allah, Allah subhanho wa Taala in his great mercy, ne ne ne ne ne, and in his greatness, chooses to call it as ours, and it says that I will.
And he says that I will give this
this life and this wealth. Allah subhanaw taala chooses to chooses to call it as ours and he says that I will give this life
I will give my agenda in exchange for your life and your wealth. Even though when he says your life and your wealth, it is neither ours, neither the life is ours, nor the wealth is ours.
As a
poet, there is a beautiful shift in
where the poet said about somebody who died fiza vilella. about somebody who gave his life for the sake of Allah. He said john Dee Dee who CGT Hakka Hakka Donna O'Donoghue. He said I gave my life but really it was his own. I only gave back What did not belong to me. I only I only gave back what was his he says the reality is that I was not able to do justice.
So john Dee Dee who's easy, we have little t NATO Derek as well, but it wasn't mine. So therefore How could I have given it?
JOHN dee dee, dee dee haka, Donna, john Decker, Bianca, Tanaka, k john Decker, Bianca Donna. The truth and the reality is that justice and the justice is that even if we give our life and our wealth in the path of Allah subhanaw taala. effectively we cannot say I have done justice because I've not done justice. It is it is only the mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah subhanaw taala chooses to see
It is something that is worthy. And he gave us genda to us. How can we possibly thank him? Because he accepts from us what is transient and temporary and full of deficiencies in exchange for something which is permanent and perfect? how can how can we thank him for this? What kind of a deal is this? What kind of a bargain is this? Do we realize the value of this deal? Do we realize the value of this bargain that Allah subhanaw taala accepts from us something which is deficient and gives us something which is perfect, how can we possibly thank Allah subhanho wa Taala in a way that does justice to him and to his mercy and to his blessings on us?
My dear brothers and sisters,
Allah subhanaw taala mentioned this deal in Surah Tauba where Allah subhanaw taala said in a larger Amina mini fusa home mama home Bian Allah hormonal Jun yoga de Luna visa Amelie La Jolla auto loan our Yokota alone widen
with Dora Tijuana de
la mano de la la mano
de mein Allah He was first row. First, she wrote a como la de vida de la liga who alfonzo lousy.
Allah subhanaw taala said, Verily, Allah subhanho wa Taala has purchased from the believers, their lives and their properties, their wealth, for the price, that there's shall be the agenda.
They fight who are the believers, these are the people who struggle in the path of Allah subhanaw taala and who fight for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala. And when the need arises when they are fighting the enemies of Islam, they kill and are killed. It is a promise in truth, which is binding on him on home on Allah. Allah subhanho wa Taala is making a promise and he's saying that this promise is binding on me, that when my slave gives his life and his wealth to me, then I will give him gender. And Allah subhanaw taala said and his promise is binding on him. In the Torah and the angel and the Quran, the same promise was made and it is reinforced and reaffirmed and who is truer
to his covenant than Allah. Allah subhanaw taala said who is more true?
Why than Allah haka, who is more true to his promise than Allah subhanaw taala and then Allah subhanaw taala says first tamashiro then rejoice in the bargain, first Abu Shiro be by a comb. The word bargain is used, the word trade is used by a first Abu Shiro by whom Allah subhanaw taala said rejoice in the bargain which you have made with Allah which you have concluded and that is alcohol as well as him. That is the supreme success. My brothers and sisters asked you to reflect
on what is the responsibility on someone who has entered into a deal and he or she wishes for this deal to be honored. And for this deal to go through. Imagine that you sold your house I'll give you two examples. Imagine imagine that you sold your house to somebody for a certain price and you are very happy about the price you sold the house to somebody for a certain price, but when the time for delivery comes, the person is unwilling to pay the price. The person is unwilling to do the deal. Will you still give the house to the person? Will anyone say that this deal if you now say fine you know if you don't want to pay the price, that's okay. But now the house you can't have the house is
are you being unjust? Can someone say how can how can you did the deal? What is the meaning of a deal?
a deal has two sides to it a transaction has two sides to it.
And as far as the deal is concerned, if I if one side one person is willing to keep one side of the deal, but the other person is not willing to fulfill his side of the bargain, then there is no
there is no deal.
So is this still valid?
Imagine another situation where a person sold you his car.
Imagine the situation a person sold you his car and the person says and you took the price of the car. You took the price of the car, the person sold you the car, you took the price of the car you use of the price of the car, the person said to you No problem. I have sold my car to you. And I have you know I have bought your car. You sold the car to the person bought the car. So the person says I bought the car from you here is the price full price of the car. You can use it
I will not collect the car. Just I'll come and collect the
After some time, right, I immediately cannot take delivery of the car. So I will take the delivery of the car after some time. Meanwhile, you can use the car, no problem. So this is now a beautiful thing, because now you got the car for free. The car now belongs to the other person, you took the price of the car, and you made use of the money. And you also still have the car to use. So the person said, Please use the car, no problem. And I will collect this car after some time. Now, the day comes when the person comes. And he says, Please give me my car. Because I bought the car from you, I gave you the money. So please Can I have my car. So now when you take him to the Guardian who
saw it, that car is totally trashed, the car is in a mess.
The engine is shot through the tires are bald, the transmission is gone. There is more noise in the gear than there is in the engine and this car is in a mess. Right? Or maybe even worse. When the person comes to get the car. And you say I don't have the car anymore. It's what?
You took the price of the car and now you're telling me you don't have the car anymore? You say no, I don't have the car because sold it to somebody else.
So now what did you do? You sold a cat?
Zola car twice. Yeah, you had the car once, and you took the money from somebody.
So the deal is done. But then you take this car and you sell it to someone else.
Now what do you say to a person like that?
What do you say to a person like that? What do you do?
I'm asking you to give these examples style Allahu la Sol. We do not give example of Allah. But I'm giving you these examples of this transaction, to help us to really understand what is it that we are doing with our lives?
What is it that we are doing with our lives?
This D this Deen of ours, my brothers and sisters is not a figment of our imagination. It is not a philosophy or a theory that is concocted by somebody in somebody's imagination. It's not a theory or a practice that is concocted by somebody to and where they're promised various things. This day in Israel, a deal is a deal. And a day will come when all payments will have to be made.
Now think about that. What do you say about someone who does? Or actually for someone for whom the deal is done by the one who knows the true value of it. This deal was done by Allah subhanaw taala? And who knows what the agenda of Allah is better than Allah subhanaw taala who is the creator and the owner of the agenda?
So what do you say about somebody who does a deal where he has been able to get something of immeasurable value very cheaply, and yet he fails to secure the deal. Because he reneged on the contract. He reneged on the contract, and he abuses the trust. What do you say about somebody like that? Someone got the something's got his thing, which was enormously valuable. And he got it very, very cheaply. As a matter of fact, in this particular case, the one who owned the thing also financed the deal for him.
Imagine,
imagine a situation
I want to buy this Enzo Ferrari. So I say Wow, fantastic, you know, million dollars plus, and somebody says, You know what, I'll give you the Say, say the makers of Ferrari, there's no problem. We will not only give you the Enzo Ferrari, but we will also give you the money to buy that Ferrari. Right. So you have the money, you buy the variety, we do the whole deal.
Now, what do you say about that?
Does that kind of thing happen in this world? It takes only Allah subhanaw taala to do things like this. It takes the King of Kings that Allah Allahu
Allah subhanaw taala who are Maluku hopko La ilaha illa Huwa, Rob bhullar, shell Karim. Only Allah subhanaw taala can do things like this. But what do you say about somebody for whom this whole deal is done? signed and sealed, promised by the one
who never breaks a promise?
And yet, when the time comes for delivery, the person is unable to take delivery? Not because the one who is giving doesn't want to give, but because the one who's taking doesn't want to take
now how tragic is that?
So how do we make sure that we are able to collect on this deal? My brother and sisters The answer is very simple.
We collect by asking ourselves only one question. One simple question before we say or do anything in this life. I want you to listen very carefully. How do we ensure that insha Allah almost and when we reach
the throne of Allah subhanaw taala that we will get this gentleman How do we ensure this by asking ourselves only one simple question. Now what is the question? Does this please Allah?
This thing which I'm about to say, or this thing, which I'm about to do, does it please
Allah subhanho wa Taala that's all we ask only one simple question, does it please Allah.
Now, how complicated is that?
So what can happen when we ask this question? one of three things we know for sure, yes, this pleases Allah. So we do it
we do it.
Second situation, we are not sure does it please Allah or not.
So what do we do? We go and find out from somebody who knows.
And then we find out yes, it pleases Allah This is okay we do it. And someone says no, this is not okay. We don't do it. And the third situation is that we know for sure that this thing does not please Allah. Then what do we do? We don't do it. So three possible situations when we ask this question and that is why
the hadith of Bokhari in Albania the verse Hadees, in Bukhari Sharif, wherever Salam narrated by Omar Catalano Carlos Allah is Allah Allah is Allah minimal am Albania oakmark Allah Allah He salat wa salam.
He said the value of the deed is based on the intention Why? Because this is the show the intention, the show, The intention is that we ask Allah subhanaw taala that we make sure that for every action, every deed, we ask this question, does this please Allah?
And if the answer is yes, it pleases Allah we do it. The answer is no, this does not please Allah subhanaw taala we don't do it. And the third situation, I'm not sure in which case I find out. Now until I find out, if the matter is a doubtful matter the matter, we are not sure. And I'm unable to find somebody to ask. Then until that time, what do I do with that thing? I don't do it. I don't do it. And that is why I said stay away from that which is not. The measure of taqwa is not whether you stay away from Haram. The measure of taqwa is whether you stay away from the doubtful
staying away from the Haram is you know at least should be simple for Muslims and if something is haram, then where is the question? Where is the question of going near it Why should you I mean, we know gambling is haram. So why How can a Muslim gamble we know alcohol is haram How can a Muslim drink we know Zina is haram How can a Muslim commit Zina we know that rebirth is haram so how can a Muslim committed Riba? We know that lying and cheating is haram? How can a Muslim lie and cheat? Yes, but things which are doubtful
things which are doubtful. I'm not sure when I'm about to eat these wonderful tandoori chicken from this restaurant. I don't know the antecedents of that chicken. I don't know the answers to that chicken. Where does chicken come from?
How did this chicken died? He wrote kilowatt right. So what do you do about the restaurant man that has a has a stamp saying halaal? Therefore like all the chickens or Allah, or do you find out I always tell people supposing instead of the word Haram, I substituted by the word poison, what will you do?
Instead of saying Haram is a poison, what do you do? Instead of doubtful you say poison, possibly poison.
The measure of taqwa is a measure of turquoise, does it keep you away from the doubtful?
does it keep you away from the doubtful?
So now
and that's why they say
the benefit is in the execution. Life is simple. But in the execution is the complexity.
My brothers and sisters, I remind myself when you that results come from taking action, not from thinking about action. results don't come from thinking about acting. results come from actually taking action.
And therefore we need to bring about and create changes in our lives.
The operative question, therefore, with regard to the agenda, is this.
The operative question is to ask ourselves, do I want this deal to go through or not?
Seriously, I remind myself when you let us go today, after this Juma find a quiet place, sit down.
And do not go to sleep tonight until you
get an answer for this question for yourself.
You might say, well, this is a no brainer. You know, what kind of a question is this? Will I see I don't want Jana. a stupid question. But believe me in that stupid question, is our salvation.
Because the question is so stupid, that how come we don't do the things that we know we should do?
So is it really a stupid question, or is it really a very foundational, fundamental, seminal question that we really need to ask? Do I really want this deal to go through
Do I really want this deal to go through?
Because Allah subhanaw taala promised to keep his end of the bargain. He promised to give up his part of the bargain, he's not going to Allah will not go back on his bargain.
So, we have to ask ourselves,
do I want this deal to go through, because as I mentioned before,
a bargain has two sides, there is no such thing as a one sided bargain. It has two sides.
And if the one side of the bargain is kept, and the other side of the bargain is not kept, then there is no bargain.
So we have to ensure that we keep up our side of the bargain.
So what will happen if we do keep the bargain?
See the beautiful eyes of Allah subhanaw taala see the Bashara that Allah Allah Allah gave us
Allah subhanaw taala said there is column 02 headed

Allah subhanaw taala said on that day, on the day of judgment, you will see the believing men and believing women, their light, they will emanate light, their light running forward before them and by their right hands. Bushra Kumar Leone glad tidings for you this day. Glad tidings award. Jonathan daydreamin Tatiana
Holly Deena Viva La Liga who all foes will azeem Gardens under which rivers flow to stay there and dwell there in forever.
Truly, this is the great success.
On the day when the hypocrites men and women will say to the believers, wait for us. Let us get something from your light.
It will be said to them go back
and then seek alight. So a wall will be put up between them. And there will be a gate in this wall. Inside it will be mercy and outside. It will be Azhar
torment, the advocates will call the believers were we not with you. And the believers will say, they will reply, yes, you are with us. But you lead yourselves into temptations, and you look forward to our destruction. you doubted in faith, and you were deceived by false desires, until the command of Allah came to pass. And the chief deceiver shaitan deceived you in respect of Allah. So this day, no ransom will be accepted and or taken from you.
The hypocrites, nor from those who disbelieved, nor from the kafar or mushrikeen
your abode is the fire and that is the proper place for you. And worst indeed, is that destination. And then the ayah where I said Allah subhanaw taala is asking this question. Um, yeah, and Isla de la mano, Allah says, has not the time come, for the hearts of those who believe to be affected by the vicar of Allah has not the time come for the hearts of those who believe to be affected by this Quran,
have has not the time come for those who believe in the in the column of Allah subhanho wa Taala, to be affected by that column. And that which has been revealed of the truth, lest they become as those who received the scripture before them, the Jews and the Christians, and the term was prolonged for them, so that their hearts were hardened.
And many of them were fast. They were rebellious to Allah subhanaw taala.
My brothers and sisters, I remind you to please notice, and these are sort of the Hadith number 12 to 16.
Please notice that Allah subhanaw taala and this is also mentioned our present day advisors who tempt us and invite us to disobey Allah. All those people who we call friends, be careful of who your friends are. Because on the Day of Judgment, we will be with our friends. Make sure you have friends with whom you want to spend the rest of eternity, because that is what will happen. So Allah subhanho wa Taala mentioned
those advisors of ours who invite us to disobey Him. These are the advisors who must look to their own situation, and those whom are who we must never fall prey to. How foolish is it to claim to believe in Allah and His Messenger Salah Salem, yet we disobey them and follow those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messenger sallallahu sallam, either by word or by deed, or by both? Please understand, it is not sufficient to simply say la ilaha illAllah.
It is not sufficient only to sell Allah Allah.
The conditions of the kalama are three
does the Campbell come to believe that there is no one worthy of worship except Allah Subhana Allah, and that Muhammad Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam is his last and final messenger to believe this in the heart, where you karamba Listen, and to express this belief with your tongue to say a Chateau La ilaha illallah wa sallahu la sharika Allah wa shawanna Mohammed Abu rasuluh.
And the third condition is Amal Bilal Khan, to actually act on this karma
to live our lives according to this karma. So if a person says Laila heilala, Muhammad Rasul Allah, and then the person goes and worships at a grave, is the person goes and makes a top of the grave, if the person goes and makes dua at the grave and ask the person who has died to make Shabbat for him and to ask this favor or that favor, a person goes and make a mixer such that a grave then what do you say to this person?
Is he living by the schema, or by His Word is he denying the schema?
The person said La Ilaha Illa La, La La La La, the person stood in salah and said he cannot, he cannot stay in. And then he asked me other than he asked for help from this person or that person. He has mothered from Jakob de cada Gilani and he gives him a title, which is shared. Gilani knew this title, then he would have slept it back in the face. They call it was also
in Allah why in Nigeria he raggio
we don't even understand what we say.
What is the meaning of loss?
The rescuer, the Savior, I'll ask them the greatest of saviors.
whose title is this? You don't even know what you're saying are so bloody stupid, that you don't even know what to say.
Make tower.
Make tower? How can you call a human being alone?
Adam,
who is
who is Muslim?
Allah subhanho wa Taala
Shahada Gilani, Rama de la la vida mahad. This was a movie. He was among the debate and he was one of the greatest allamah of this oma subhanaw taala fill his cupboard with no malice vannatta increases with Allah.
If Gilani knew what we were doing in his name,
he would have slapped us in the face.
And there are those of us who say yeah, Ali Ahmed.
May Allah save us from the Hellfire?
I live in Abu Talib, radi Allahu anhu kurama Allah. May Allah subhanho wa Taala glory make his face shine with glory? May Allah subhanho wa Taala be pleased with him.
Is there an alibi? La and you knew what they were doing in his name, he would not have slapped them in the face, he would have separated their heads from their bodies.
If these two are right,
then what the Christians do is even more right? Because they are asking help from the nappy of Allah is an A Salam. I mean, use your brain for God's sake, except for something better than growing hair on.
How are the Christians wrong when they ask the help of the Navy of Allah when we ask the help of a Sahabi of Rasulullah sallallahu or we ask helper watabe one of the alama or we ask help from everyone that we can imagine how is this correct? And this is Islam
is this Islam?
The Hindus go to their temples, I don't know how many of you have actually seen
the puja in a temple I have seen it in complete detail in Kerala and Tamil Nadu.
Total detail I stood and watched a complete Pallavi Shaka, which is done in Tamil Nadu for three hours.
When the Buddha is a Brahmin sits and research block after block after block of three hours.
You know what they do? Let me describe this for you. And then you compare this with what happens in our burgers.
You know what they do?
They wash the before they before this whole thing begins. They get sandalwood paste ready. And they take the sandalwood paste around in the city in the town.
Then they come to the idol. And they wash the idol with water. And the water which flows out temple construction is done in such a way that from the innermost chamber, which is called the Sanctum Sanctorum, there is a little drain pipe which comes out. And this drain pipe is meant for the water or whatever is inside to come out. And there are people standing there and they take it in their hands and they drink it and they rub it over their bodies. And they call it prasada.
And I'll tell you what we call it.
So they wash this idea with water. And in this water they make saffron and so on. And once that whole water has been taken out and the people have drank it and they have you know, wash themselves with it and rub it over their bodies. Then they wash the idle with milk.
And in some cases, they also wash the idle with ghee with clarified butter. And after that they smear sandalwood paste on the idle.
And then they closed the idle with saffron clothes.
And then they put flowers on the idol and gallons and so on and depending on which devotee has given what they put various kinds of jewelry on the idol.
Now what happens in our Vegas
exactly the same thing with two very important differences. The first difference is that we use green cloth and not suffering cloth
for the final clothing. And the second importance is that their idol is vertical and ours is horizontal.
In alila, why nyla urogen Have some shame.
Don't sell this then for the sake of money of for the sake of I don't know what
May Allah forgive us? Remember, the column of Allah subhanaw taala is Huck.
And if you bought the car, you know the example I gave in the beginning that you bought the car, you took the money for the car, and when the owner of the car came, what did you do? You told the owner I already sold it to somebody else.
You understand the example?
You got this life from Allah?
What is the one who's committing shark? What is he doing? He's giving it up somebody else.
So if you took the money
You went and sold the car to someone else, I would trash this car, what do you call that deal?
What do you call that deal?
My brothers and sisters, please understand
that it is not sufficient to be born in a Muslim home, it is not sufficient to have a Muslim name. It is not sufficient to have Muslim parents.
It is not sufficient to be related, we all talk about Silsila this unzila that
we can we consider ourselves to be very exalted because we are related to this pious person or that pious person. Please understand, there is no one more pious than the Gambia of Allah. There is no one more pious than the prophets and messengers of Allah subhanho wa Taala.
Yet those related to them, were not spared by Allah. When the time of reckoning came.
The wife of Luth Allah is Allah was not spared.
The father of Ibrahim Alayhi Salam was not spared. The son of new Allah Salam was not spared. Think of your setting for yourself. Why is Allah subhanaw taala giving us these examples not only of ambia but all as a mineral soul?
Why did Allah subhanaw taala not talk about who the lay Salam or somebody is talking about the people who Allah, Allah subhanaw taala gave them a PSA, even among the Gambia.
tilaka rasuluh for de la mala, but
the uncle of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who supported him all his life was not spared.
So where do you think
we will land up? And what do you think will happen to us? And what do you think all these relationships that we talk about? Will they help us? What do you think?
My brothers and sisters it's only our own deeds, which will make us or break us nothing else. our aqeedah and our Amel the only two things nothing else, not our relationships of our family or race or nationality or tariqa or via or hunka or HELOC or Yamato mother or Maslak nothing none of these or anything else that we might invent. None of these will save us The only thing that will save us The only thing which will guarantee Jana for us insha Allah Busan is our Akita and our Iman, if we have the data of tawheed without shirk and if we have the IML which go with that Akita then inshallah almost on it is our kin that our Rob will keep his end of the bargain. Allah subhanaw
taala does not lie in Allah, Allah, Allah. Allah subhanaw taala does not go back on his promises. And therefore if we keep to our side of the bargain, then inshallah Allah subhanaw taala will keep his side of the bargain. I remind myself when you have Taqwa of Allah and to obey him without question, and to follow the son of his messenger Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam without hesitation and to stand out as standard bearers of Islam in every aspect of our life, ask Allah subhanho wa Taala to make us among those who will experience these glad tidings for the believers on the day of judgment and bear witness to the truth of Islam. I ask Allah subhanaw taala to enable us
to do what is pleasing to Him and to protect us from that which is displeasing to him. Was Allah Allah Allah Nabeel Karim? Allah Allah He was Javi Germaine B Rama Tika Amara hamina al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil aalameen
