He is the one who is a semi well Brazil. He is the one who hears everything and who sees everything.
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:19
			I begin with this Ayat al Karima of the surah because this is the opening.
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:40
			And this is the door through which this greatest gift that Allah subhanaw taala give to Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and through him to his ummah, which is which is the salah. This is the
door through which that gift came.
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:57
			Rasul Allah is Allah alayhi wa sallam was taken. This is not a ban on Mirage, an ESA so I'm not
going to talk about the details of that. But Allah subhanaw taala took Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam
on a multi dimensional tour
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:10
			from one dimension to another dimension to another dimension, from one heaven to another heaven to
another heaven, the actual details of which are known only to Allah subhanho wa ala
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:32
			Rasulillah Israel SLM was taken to this on this tour, and then eventually at the end of that he was
presented before Allah subhanho wa Taala a little. And then whatever happened between the app there
is Rob Jalla Jalla, who only his Rob and only the, to whom it happens, happened. No,
		
00:03:33 --> 00:03:58
			we know what we have been told. And what we have been told is that Allah subhanaw taala then said to
them, and gave him this gift of appearing of the right to appear in the Darbar in the court. And in
the presence, the glorified Presence of Allah subhana wa Taala 50 times a day.
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:04
			Divide 24 hours by that and you get about every 30 minutes
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:08
			50 times a day, but more than that, because that's what eight
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:24
			to another two times every 30 minutes. And then we know the details of the rest of it also how Musa
alayhis salam advised Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and the consequence of that advice and
eventually, it was this
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:36
			honor and privilege of appearing in the giroir of Allah subhanho wa Taala was reduced in number
alone to five times a day.
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:51
			But it is the Shan and the glory and the magnificence of Myra Jalla Jalla who that what he gives he
does not take away. So he said they will appear in my server five times a day what they will give
you but they will get the reward of appearing 50 times a day
		
00:04:53 --> 00:04:55
			because the original thing was 50 times a day.
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			This my brothers and sisters is
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:01
			The essence of Salah
		
00:05:02 --> 00:05:18
			Salah is not a burden at all of course, Salah is a fourth but I would like to say even that Salah is
not able to be seen as a fourth, Salah is to be seen as the greatest honor and privilege that we
could possibly get.
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:28
			And that is why rasool Allah is Allah alayhi wa sallam called the Salah, El Mirage will moment. He
said this is the mirror of the moment.
		
00:05:30 --> 00:05:34
			The Mirage of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was when he went on this journey.
		
00:05:35 --> 00:05:39
			The Mirage of the moment is when he stands before he's up
		
00:05:40 --> 00:05:42
			in the masjid or wherever he stands.
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:58
			And that is the reason why Rasul Allah is Allah sallam said In another Hadith that when the slave
makes soju on the earth, he is actually making such though before the throne, the earth of his Rob
geladeira
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:10
			This is the real value of Salah, Salah is the conversation between Allah subhanho wa Taala and his
ad.
		
00:06:13 --> 00:06:19
			Salah is the place where you talk to Allah subhanho Then you say Bismillah R Rahman r Rahim.
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:27
			I begin in the name of Allah subhana hotel Adela Jana Lu, who is a Rahman Al Rahim.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:34
			Beneficent, the Merciful at the peak of beneficent and mercy
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:42
			Alhamdulillah Hera bailar, Allah Amin, all praise all thanks
		
00:06:44 --> 00:07:05
			to Allah subhanho wa Jalla Jalla DeLallo who is Rob Bula Alameen He is the Creator he is the
sustainer he is the mentor he is the owner he is the provider for not just for you and me and asked
me for all of creation all that we know and all that we don't know.
		
00:07:07 --> 00:07:09
			Arwa Rahman Al Rahim
		
00:07:10 --> 00:07:11
			who is
		
00:07:14 --> 00:07:15
			a rock man
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:24
			the same wasn't the same form as Joe an afghan.
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:26
			Not when
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:33
			extremely hungry, super, extremely hungry. extremely thirsty extremely angry
		
00:07:38 --> 00:07:44
			but what is the within quotes the problem of any extreme the peak
		
00:07:46 --> 00:07:51
			the problem of a peak is a peak doesn't stay forever. Peak always declines
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:59
			you're extremely hungry until when? Until you get the first morsel of food your stomach doesn't have
to fill
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:07
			if there was a meter that you could attach to see which showed you the the intensity of hunger
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:14
			then even if you had been hungry for three four days, absolutely starving peak of hunger
		
00:08:15 --> 00:08:24
			and you start eating you haven't eaten your stomach is not fooled you just ate one morsel of food
there will be a dip in the pick. Yes
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:36
			same thing with just everything with anger are you You are extremely angry absolutely insane with
anger. But the moment somebody says I'm extremely sorry please forgive me comes down may not come
down completely.
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:44
			But you are just now willing to slaughter that person with a blunt knife but okay, now I use a sharp
knife you know, not a blunt knife.
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:58
			Pick always comes down. But what are the last words are rahmanir rahim? What is Rahim? Same wasn't
same form as Jamil Kareem
		
00:09:00 --> 00:09:02
			beautiful, honorable.
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:07
			You're not beautiful? One day and next day you become ugly no
		
00:09:09 --> 00:09:13
			Allah Masha Allah except for you no accidents and so on. May Allah protect us but otherwise,
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:27
			it maintains over time. Our Rahmani Raheem is the peak of mercy which remains forever doesn't come
now. Or Rama pika mercy or Rahim that mercy remains forever.
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:37
			And who is this? Rahim? Maliki yo MIDI in. He is the one before whom we are going to go.
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:40
			He is the Owner of the Day of Judgment.
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:55
			He is the king on the Day of Judgment. Liberal mole cool yo de la Hilda he took a hub. This was said
in that place. But the beginning Allah did not cry. Haha Allah said Have a
		
00:09:57 --> 00:09:59
			conversation between the Abdullah Rob
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:07
			allege introducing himself I am a Rahmani Raheem, I am the owner of the Day of Judgment so my slave
when you come before me don't worry
		
00:10:09 --> 00:10:22
			don't worry you're coming before the one who's mercy is not exceeded by anybody. There is no one and
nothing that can be more merciful that Allah Subhana Allah Allah this is the one you are going to
come before
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:25
			Rahman Rahim Malik here with you
		
00:10:27 --> 00:10:30
			and then what is the slave say conversation has been two way right
		
00:10:32 --> 00:10:33
			so what is the safe say
		
00:10:34 --> 00:10:37
			he gonna Irabu a kindness there II
		
00:10:42 --> 00:10:43
			only you I worship
		
00:10:46 --> 00:10:48
			only you I asked for help.
		
00:10:51 --> 00:10:52
			Why do you think that?
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:58
			He's saying that and he's being taught to say this because this is the collab of Allah subhanaw
taala.
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:02
			To establish
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:07
			and reiterate his connection with his rock Jana, Jana Lu
		
00:11:10 --> 00:11:12
			who are you? I am yours
		
00:11:14 --> 00:11:17
			the ally of yours. I belong to you.
		
00:11:19 --> 00:11:22
			I don't worship anybody else. I was one you
		
00:11:25 --> 00:11:27
			don't ask anyone else ask only you.
		
00:11:30 --> 00:11:33
			Like give me because I am asking you
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:38
			give me because I don't ask anybody else.
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:42
			Give me because only you can give
		
00:11:46 --> 00:11:50
			and give what if you didn't know surat al Mustafi we
		
00:11:52 --> 00:11:56
			show me the way to the path of steadfastness.
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:08
			Allah did not tell us to say in the unassailable Jana No. Oh Allah we asked you for Jana know the
path of steadfastness
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:16
			that path leads to Jana. But this life the journey
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:21
			Jana is the destination
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:36
			a little model is teaching us to ask for the right path because only that path will take us to
Jannah to the right destination. And that path is the path of steadfastness throttle was the key.
		
00:12:41 --> 00:12:45
			And to be able to stay on that path, which is the comet
		
00:12:47 --> 00:12:48
			which steadfastness
		
00:12:49 --> 00:12:51
			this is what we have to ask for.
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:55
			Is in Estrada loose debris.
		
00:12:57 --> 00:13:11
			And then we call this the seal. further explanation. What is the rattle muster? Que Sera De La Vina
and I'm Charlie him viral Moldoveanu, a Malabo orally.
		
00:13:15 --> 00:13:28
			What is this path of steadfastness, the path of those who received your pleasure, who received your
inner arm, who received your blessings.
		
00:13:32 --> 00:13:33
			Further, the
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:40
			further explanation, not the path of those who earned your displeasure your anger,
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:58
			not the path of those who were misguided or misled and who went astray, whoever they might be, we
usually translate that as Jews and Christians. But I submit to you that Allah subhanaw taala could
have said Yo, Massara.
		
00:14:00 --> 00:14:05
			Allah does not have to speak in riddles and say something and expect us to find our meanings.
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:14
			Allah did not say oh, the wrong one Asara. Allah said those who have incurred Allah's Anger could be
anybody including Muslims.
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:21
			And those who are misguided or who went astray can be anyone including Muslims.
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:34
			There is no guarantee that just because you said Lila Hey Lola, or just because you were born in a
Muslim home or just because you call yourself a Muslim, that you are guaranteed that you will never
go astray. No.
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:47
			And that is the reason why we need to be careful with ourselves and with the kinds of decisions we
take and with the kinds of things we do. Our actions and and our
		
00:14:48 --> 00:14:51
			choices must be made intelligently.
		
00:14:54 --> 00:14:59
			This is Allah this is what happens when you stand before Allah subhanho wa Taala your star
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:16
			meaning before your Rajala general who and you are speaking to him and obviously when you are
speaking to him you are asking him for that most important and critical thing which spells the
difference between Jana or Johanna, which spells the difference between everlasting
		
00:15:17 --> 00:15:22
			pleasure and everlasting happiness and everlasting unhappiness in pain.
		
00:15:27 --> 00:15:28
			This is Salah.
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:35
			And this was the gift that was given to Rasulullah sallallahu ala usav You sell them
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:42
			and through him, this is the gift given to his ummah,
		
00:15:43 --> 00:16:14
			the ability to connect with Allah subhanho wa Taala five times a day, compulsorily. And then as many
times a day as they wish. There is no number limiting the number of Nava fields that you can pray
anytime of the day or night except the private times. You can pray as many number field as you like.
Allah subhanaw taala has not put a condition on the amount of Nerville that you can pray.
		
00:16:17 --> 00:16:39
			My brother and sisters, this is this whole class inshallah we will have totally four sessions to two
sessions today and two sessions tomorrow is focused on this most important of elements of our deed
and that's why I've titled it Salah, the proof of Auriemma Because salah is the proof that we are
Muslim.
		
00:16:40 --> 00:16:52
			When we say Allah Allah Hi, Lola when we How do you enter Islam and Islam by the shot by accepting
the shahada into Shahada. I shall we Allah ilaha illAllah wa shawanna Muhammad Rasool Allah.
		
00:16:53 --> 00:16:54
			So what do you do?
		
00:16:55 --> 00:17:00
			You believe that in your heart, you say that with your tongue and you act on it?
		
00:17:02 --> 00:17:02
			Does it will call
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:07
			for you cannot be Lisa will Ahmed will occur?
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:22
			What is in our heart we know Allah subhanaw taala knows what is on our tongue inshallah. We can all
see that and see it now so that inshallah we ask Allah subhanaw taala to be witness. So repeat after
me I shall do Allah Allah Illallah
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:27
			Well, I had one night Mohammad Rasool Allah
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:40
			Alhamdulillah so we have said it with our tongue. Now what is the Apple will be ruling what is what
are the actions with our hands and feet.
		
00:17:41 --> 00:17:54
			This applies to all the actions of a person, all of which must be in obedience to the order the
oneness with hotel and the sunan visa. But primarily and first and foremost is applies to Salah.
		
00:17:56 --> 00:18:04
			Within there is no one worthy of worship except Allah subhana wa Tada Allah to Allah Allah, Allah
Illallah there is no one worthy of worship except Allah.
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:09
			And we prove that by doing what by worshiping Allah.
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:21
			So if you have somebody who said Lila Hi Lola and then the other one is called Hara salah, but the
person does not go for Salah then where is the proof of the month
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:25
			and that is the reason why
		
00:18:26 --> 00:18:41
			rasool Allah Azza wa sallam will look at all the Hadees and so on in the course of this of this
lecture, but nevertheless, Selim said this, and all the Sahaba are agreed upon, that a person who
deliberately refuses to pray.
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:57
			I'm not going into the nuances of what, what what constitutes deliberate refusal, but you know, and
I know what it means. So somebody who does not pray, who deliberately refuses to gray has exited
Islam, the person is no longer a Muslim.
		
00:18:58 --> 00:19:00
			And if that person dies, the person has died without demand.
		
00:19:03 --> 00:19:28
			He has not died as a Muslim, she has not died as a Muslim, if that person has left Salah and
therefore we ask Allah subhanaw taala to enable us to appreciate this great gift that Allah subhanaw
taala gave us and to not just fulfill that as an obligation, but to use that as leverage to use that
in the best form that we can use it.
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:44
			So what is Salah as I meant as I mentioned before, Salah is an honor salah is the key to Jannah and
Salah most importantly is a reminder of our meeting with Allah subhanho wa Taala delusional
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:48
			that one day we will stand before Allah.
		
00:19:49 --> 00:19:59
			We remember that at least five times a day when we stand before Allah subhanho That Salah is like a
course correction. You know if you are if you take
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:02
			a guided missile for example.
		
00:20:03 --> 00:20:39
			So what happens to guided missiles, you don't just press a button and it goes as it is going. The
server's keep correcting the course. So it goes a little bit to right bring it back a little bit
this way and bring it back and up and down and so on. So that it finally hits the target that it was
with the seller five times a day is that course correction, whatever I may have done between Fajr
and zohore. In czar I correct my course I make my job I ensure that I'm on the right path and then
from door to Azur. I do that, quite apart from the fact that we sort of Salam said Allah Subhana
Allah forgives the sins between one salah and the other Salah so Hamdulillah we are also forgiven
		
00:20:40 --> 00:20:51
			those sins, but more importantly is that salah is the reminder and salah is the course correction
for us between the two Salawat some Allah Allah Allah will carry value he was
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:53
			alive
