			Hello, Rahim al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil alameen wa salatu salam ala
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:12
			Sayyidina Muhammad Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa seldom at the Sleeman Catherine cathedra. from
Abu
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:18
			Avira, Mohammed Saleh Ali. Salaam in nama Rama Winnie yet.
		
00:00:21 --> 00:00:23
			Oh c'mon, Kannada, Serato Sara.
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:30
			And I will and Allahu fi mohyla Muslim, my brothers and sisters,
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:39
			and also allies and sell them in the same as Hadees, which is narrated by Marina Catalano. And which
is
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:45
			the first Hadith in Bukhari and Muslim is where he sets an alarm,
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:54
			that the value of a deed, the basis of a deed, the reward of a deed, is based on its intention.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:01:01
			Now, I want you to think about this very carefully. And to keep this in mind.
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:16
			Because today, one of the biggest problems that we have with respect to Muslims, learning about
Islam and practicing Islam is their attitude towards Islam.
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:21
			Before I go there, let me tell you something, which
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:39
			I learned from one of my friends, who is a airline pilot, many friends of our pilots, and I love
flying, I don't have a license, but I have flown in small planes, big planes, all kinds of planes.
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:47
			One, this person said to me, I asked him once I said, What do you do if your plane is crashing?
		
00:01:49 --> 00:02:03
			So, you are flying or whatever attitude say, you know, 20,000 feet or 25,000 feet and your plane
goes into a tailspin. You are headed downwards. What is it that you do?
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			This friend said to me,
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			we are taught is
		
00:02:14 --> 00:02:30
			go back to the manual, go back to the manual. So I said you mean you actually pull out a manual and
start reading in the cockpit when you are facing down when he said no, he said the first thing in
the manual is check your instruments.
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34
			So before you start to fly,
		
00:02:35 --> 00:03:07
			right, when you are on the ground, before you take off, you do as a pilot, you do an instrument
check. And there's a sequence that you have to follow, you go from one end of the cockpit to the
other all the entire instrument panel to check everything you check off, check off, check out check
out Finally, give the thumbs up sign to say everything is functioning all systems going, ready to
start and then the engines are and then you're given the permission to start taxiing to take off.
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:25
			So he said when you are in a tailspin. And almost 100% you're going to crash. What do you do? You go
back to the basics. You go back to your instrument check and see what is happening now on this
instrument panel. What is this thing telling me?
		
00:03:27 --> 00:03:35
			About Me and my situation about this play and about what is likely to happen or not happen? What is
this instrument check? What is it that this thing is now telling me?
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:49
			That is the meaning of going back to the basics. Now why am I saying that? I'm saying that because
today we seem to be in a situation in Islam as Muslims as people who are of the Muslim faith all
over the world
		
00:03:51 --> 00:03:56
			is that thanks to a number of reasons I can I can talk about my
		
00:03:58 --> 00:04:08
			assessment for the reasons why we are in this place. But I'm not going to do that. I don't want to
take your time on that. But take my word for it for a number of reasons.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:17
			Muslims are in a state are in a kind of siege mentality. They are they are they feel threatened from
everywhere.
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:37
			ideologically speaking, of course, in many cases, also, Muslims all over the world are physically
threatened Muslims all over the world are there is a wholesale slaughter of Muslims happening.
Nobody likes to talk about that. Nobody mentioned that it doesn't show up on headlines anywhere. But
take EMR take Syria.
		
00:04:39 --> 00:04:50
			Take in Egypt what is happening take what the what is happening to the wiggers in China take what's
happening to the Myanmar Muslims in in the Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar
		
00:04:52 --> 00:05:00
			and many other places. I mean, I am not making an exhaustive list of this but many many other places
Muslim
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:34
			On the hit list, it is open season. And nobody bothers me You can anybody can kill a Muslim, you can
wipe out entire villages. And no questions asked now because of that, even Muslims like us who are
sitting in comfort and in safety in lands where Muslims are not threatened, where Muslims have have
rights and their privileges and and they have position, they have some level of authority, they have
wealth, even they are they feel threatened, they feel as if you know something's gonna happen.
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:39
			And then what will happen to me now because of that
		
00:05:40 --> 00:06:14
			there is a strange attitude towards Islam. And that attitude for a lot of people and believe me, I
am speaking now generally so obviously like all generalizations it will not apply to everybody. So
if you are one of those who have when you are listening to me, if you feel that this doesn't apply
to me, I'm very happy for you. I'm very lucky I give you all power, may Allah protect you May Allah
keep you there and keep you protected. So make dua to Allah subhanho wa Taala for steadfastness May
God Allah subhanaw taala to thank him for keeping you in that place where you are not like what I'm
saying.
		
00:06:15 --> 00:06:28
			But if not, here is my problem definition and also inshallah a solution. And the problem definition
is that we people like this, we're feeling threatened. And so therefore, we start seeing Islam as a
burden.
		
00:06:29 --> 00:06:31
			We start seeing Islam as a,
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:39
			like, I've been inflicted with this, what do I do? I mean, I was born in a Muslim, Muslim name, I've
got a Muslim face.
		
00:06:40 --> 00:07:20
			I, you know, my my parents and my ancestral everybody's Muslim. And now this is a liability. This is
a problem. And believe me, we none of us is actually saying this in so many words. But if you look
at our actions, if you put a if you put a you know, candid camera video and start videotaping us and
our lives, believe me a lot of the stuff which I'm telling you, you will see on that video. And if
you then sit and interpret that video and said, Okay, here is this man or this woman who's behaving
like this? Why are they doing that this is the conclusion you will come to that they feel burdened,
they feel that this is a problem, this is a see. But
		
00:07:22 --> 00:07:28
			as I said, you will not say it in so many words. But the thought in the mind is I wish I was not
Muslim, then I would be free of this.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:31
			Now stay with that thought for a second.
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:34
			As I'm talking to you today,
		
00:07:36 --> 00:08:10
			just yesterday, I heard I learned about the passing away of one of my closest dearest friends who
have been friends with me, we've been friends for over 35 years. Very nice human being very good
person. And I loved him very much like a brother, he loved me very much like a brother. He was. I
mean, I was like a mentor to him. And Alhamdulillah I he spent a lot of time in my company,
including in massages, including listening to lectures and bands and everything else. And
		
00:08:12 --> 00:08:14
			and yesterday, he had a massive heart attack and he died.
		
00:08:16 --> 00:08:22
			And when I got this information, I got his news. Of course, I was absolutely devastated. I wept.
		
00:08:23 --> 00:08:37
			And then I thought to myself, I do not know what stage he died in. I'm only hoping that he died
having accepted Islam. But I don't know that. And as far as the world is concerned, he died on his
religion
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:57
			which was not Islam. Now, that is when it hit me for the nth time, the value of these two small
statements and what are those two strong statements? What is true is false statements.
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:03
			La ilaha illAllah, Muhammad Rasulullah
		
00:09:04 --> 00:09:16
			there is nobody worthy of worship except Allah. And then Muhammad Sallallahu Sallam is the Messenger
of Allah and the Last and Final one, after boom, there is no message.
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:27
			And so I say, I shadow Illa Illa Illa. I bear witness to this, that there is no one worthy of
worship except Allah. Well, I shall do one number.
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:40
			And I bear witness to this, that there is that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu Sallam is Mohammed
most of us have it and that is the last and final messenger, after whom there is no message.
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:45
			What struck me
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:48
			was the value of this
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:53
			is one statement. Or this this pair of statements
		
00:09:54 --> 00:09:58
			is the difference between gender and the other place.
		
00:10:02 --> 00:10:03
			No matter what you may have done or not done,
		
00:10:07 --> 00:10:11
			if you die without this statement in your heart,
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			believing it and living by
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:17
			and that is not a depth
		
00:10:18 --> 00:10:21
			that I would wish on anybody.
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:38
			So the whole attitude of treating Islam as a birder, I would say that anytime you're feeling that
this having to pray five times a day
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:42
			that this dress code
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:49
			that these restrictions on what to eat and what not to eat, that is restrictions on behavior
		
00:10:53 --> 00:10:57
			anytime, and I can add to this, but I want you you know, you know the list
		
00:10:59 --> 00:11:02
			anytime you feel that this is a burden,
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:08
			I want you to do this exercise, I want you to leave everything,
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:14
			sit quietly and imagine your deaths
		
00:11:16 --> 00:11:18
			imagine that you have died
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:27
			whatever the reason, don't get into the into the data of it was was it a heart attack was it this
whatever it was, you are dead
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:34
			and your body is lying there you are lying there, nobody said you are lying. Do you like the
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:40
			picture that
		
00:11:42 --> 00:11:46
			close your eyes if you like picture that lie down the picture there.
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:48
			And then see,
		
00:11:49 --> 00:11:50
			at that time,
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:53
			you died without Islam.
		
00:11:55 --> 00:12:00
			You died thinking and believing that Islam was a burden.
		
00:12:03 --> 00:12:11
			You lived all your life thinking and feeling that Islam was a burden. So, you try to do the minimum
you tried to do the least
		
00:12:13 --> 00:12:14
			and then you died.
		
00:12:16 --> 00:12:18
			And then what opened before
		
00:12:20 --> 00:12:22
			what opens before you is what is called reality.
		
00:12:23 --> 00:12:33
			And that reality will tell you the actual wasn't the actual weight, the actual worth the actual
meaning
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:38
			of La ilaha illAllah Muhammad Rasul Allah,
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:43
			that is what I want you to think about.
		
00:12:45 --> 00:12:58
			And so when you approach this Dean, approach it, keep your eyes wide open, and your heart wide open
and remembering that none of this stuff in the world,
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:02
			not your oppression, not your freedom,
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:19
			not your health, not your sickness, not your wealth, not your poverty, not your need, not the
fulfillment of that need, not your desire, not the curtailment of that desire, nothing matters.
		
00:13:21 --> 00:13:41
			On the day when you are lying there on that slab dead, none of that will have any significance will
have any value whatsoever. Zero. Whether when you are lying on that, on that slab whether you own a
Bugatti
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:48
			or you own a Mercedes or you own a bicycle will not make a whit of a difference.
		
00:13:51 --> 00:14:05
			When you are lying on that slab, whether you had a wife and children, whether you had none, we make
no difference. When you are lying on that slab, whether you had money or you were a beggar on the
street will make no difference.
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:13
			The only thing which will make a difference and that difference is our difference which will be
forever.
		
00:14:15 --> 00:14:22
			The only thing which will make the difference is whether you died with La ilaha illAllah Muhammad
Rasul Allah or not
		
00:14:23 --> 00:14:24
			nothing else.
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:33
			And today you got that for free. And that is your problem.
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:42
			You got it for free, so you have no value for it. As I told you, those to whom this does not apply,
please feel free hamdulillah Good for you.
		
00:14:43 --> 00:14:46
			But those who it applies to listen very carefully.
		
00:14:47 --> 00:14:59
			As I told you cannot cover it's not a matter of I'm saying this has well known. What does my life
show? What does the Candid Camera picture look like? Does it look like somebody who has worked
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:02
			What does it look like somebody who has no value?
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:05
			That is the question.
		
00:15:09 --> 00:15:12
			My brother and sisters, we have a situation where people
		
00:15:13 --> 00:15:37
			Muslims are even studying Islam they are they are reading they are searching the internet. Not
because they want knowledge to improve their understanding of the Quran and the Sunnah. Not because
they want to discover better and more powerful ways of pleasing Allah subhanho wa Taala. But because
they are searching for loopholes,
		
00:15:39 --> 00:15:41
			you're searching for loopholes?
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:51
			I want to see what is the least I can do and get away with it? Believe it or not, one genius sends
me a question and says that I read
		
00:15:53 --> 00:16:03
			and he sent me the link also. I read incense as a place in the on the internet. That reading durood
Ibrahim after the shadow
		
00:16:05 --> 00:16:08
			is not fourth. So I decided not to do it.
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:33
			Now two years have passed. And I don't know Allah Allah Allah even told me that this is his good
fortune. So he asked me he's asking me a question saying is my Salah valid? Has my Salah been valid
for these two years and I just finished praying for whatever it was. And I did not deliver it. I
mean, imagine not forgetting deliberately I did not read do they were in because
		
00:16:35 --> 00:16:36
			it's only as soon
		
00:16:37 --> 00:16:41
			please notice my my gesture my face. It's only a certain Suna teach Hana.
		
00:16:42 --> 00:16:49
			For us today, Hannah is sort of for Robin kanehara. It's not Oregon, it's not a pillar of this era.
		
00:16:52 --> 00:16:53
			So I didn't do it
		
00:16:56 --> 00:16:57
			in Moodle
		
00:16:59 --> 00:17:01
			I read what are the four eyes Oh.
		
00:17:03 --> 00:17:04
			So, that is how I would do
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:11
			not because there is very little water. So maybe if I leave out the tsunami of Udo
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:24
			and I just do the fluoride to make sure that I have proper odo given that I have lived elevated
Water Water not fall that is deliberately that so it is only assume
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:28
			is my Salah valid?
		
00:17:33 --> 00:17:33
			What is the?
		
00:17:35 --> 00:17:36
			What is the answer?
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:55
			So it is searching on the internet. This person was searching on the internet, what is he looking
for? Is he looking for better and more ways of pleasing Allah subhanaw taala? Or is he looking at
what is the minimum I can do?
		
00:17:57 --> 00:18:00
			That if that is the case, if he's looking because I mean,
		
00:18:01 --> 00:18:07
			I don't want to buy put myself in his heart and talk about him. But I'm just saying that the action
shows the intention
		
00:18:09 --> 00:18:11
			is the if the action was
		
00:18:13 --> 00:18:21
			to still read the road because I love Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam, then no problem. Have you
found out one of the
		
00:18:23 --> 00:18:25
			details about Salah hamdulillah.
		
00:18:27 --> 00:18:38
			If you ask for example, somebody who knows, please narrate for me, what are the Arcana of Salah?
What are the five? What are the soudan? What are the most
		
00:18:41 --> 00:18:43
			and the person lists everything down for you correctly.
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:50
			Abdullah is very good. So he knows what is fun. He's not he knows what is not fun.
		
00:18:52 --> 00:18:54
			When you ask him, how do you pray?
		
00:18:55 --> 00:18:56
			What is he going to tell you?
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:02
			If you go for example, if you went to
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:05
			Russia
		
00:19:08 --> 00:19:14
			if you went to Abdullah Abdullah if you went to Abdullah with Omar Abdullah
		
00:19:16 --> 00:19:23
			if you went to manage Mr. shafa Imam Abu hanifa Imam Malik will Anna's email Ahmed bin humble
		
00:19:24 --> 00:19:29
			mo later if you went to jail, either July mode like that.
		
00:19:31 --> 00:19:34
			If you went to him with me I am Algeria.
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:36
			Rainbow lighter.
		
00:19:38 --> 00:19:41
			If you went to JSON Alina
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:44
			if you went to Hussein Obama
		
00:19:45 --> 00:19:52
			if you went to jail when Barack Obama to lie, if you went to Albania have to learn how to
		
00:19:55 --> 00:19:56
			make a list.
		
00:19:58 --> 00:19:59
			Right make your own list.
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:03
			If you were to all of these people are visual.
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:06
			And you ask them this question, please tell me
		
00:20:08 --> 00:20:14
			the list of our Gang of Four I have sunan of mustafabad of Santa
		
00:20:17 --> 00:20:30
			Fe, they will all give you the list. I don't like this app, I would have done it because in their
time there was no there was no no booster hub and, and and the rest of the things in, in. In fact,
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:33
			I was
		
00:20:34 --> 00:20:47
			simply told you don't waste my time I pray the word. Celebrate. Because he said Shalu Kamara, I
timoni. Sadly, Coca Cola de la salatu salam, he said, Pray as you have seen me pray, I pray as I saw
him pray.
		
00:20:48 --> 00:20:51
			But the others later on because we have the fifth. So they would have told you
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:54
			then you ask them another question.
		
00:20:56 --> 00:20:56
			You asked Have
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:01
			you actually been bad, not too bad?
		
00:21:02 --> 00:21:04
			You are safe to
		
00:21:05 --> 00:21:06
			use Asia.
		
00:21:07 --> 00:21:08
			May Allah bless you
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:24
			for giving me this list of things. But tell me how do you pray? When you pray? Can I watch you? And
please, you know, decide everything loudly so I can record you. And let me see whether you recite
durood in the shuffle.
		
00:21:25 --> 00:21:35
			Because you just told me it is not fun. Let me see whether you recite that this will be had in ruco
and sudo. Because you just told me it's not it's not
		
00:21:36 --> 00:21:41
			that easy to do that. Let me see if you reside anything after Soto Fatiha
		
00:21:42 --> 00:21:47
			because the second Surah or whatever part of the Quran you say after sotapatti is not a rule.
		
00:21:50 --> 00:21:53
			So, let me see if you do that or not let me let me now What did you find?
		
00:21:55 --> 00:21:56
			What did you find?
		
00:22:00 --> 00:22:01
			learning something.
		
00:22:04 --> 00:22:07
			And that's why I began with the use of intention.
		
00:22:09 --> 00:22:12
			learning something we need to ask, why am I learning?
		
00:22:13 --> 00:22:14
			What is the purpose of minor?
		
00:22:17 --> 00:22:34
			Do I want this knowledge to be a witness for me on the day of judgment? Or do I want his knowledge
to be the means by which I will be thrown into the Hellfire because this knowledge will prove that
my intention was shaytani
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:45
			I was not following the Hanafi Fiqh, I was not following Shafi fifth, I was not following Maliki
fifth. I was not following humble if I was thought I was following shaitan if you
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:54
			because I then came into my mind and told me that whatever Mohammed Salah Salah did which is sooner
is only a sweetener.
		
00:22:56 --> 00:23:01
			Then for your good inferior grade information Let me tell you, the whole Salah is only asuna
		
00:23:03 --> 00:23:08
			the whole core Anil Kareem is only had these because where did you hear the Quran from?
		
00:23:12 --> 00:23:13
			Where did you
		
00:23:15 --> 00:23:16
			Muslim?
		
00:23:17 --> 00:23:21
			From the first of them to the last one. Where did you hear the Quran from did Allah speak to
		
00:23:24 --> 00:23:25
			the Jabez lamb come to you?
		
00:23:27 --> 00:23:31
			Or did you hear it be salty Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa he was
		
00:23:34 --> 00:23:35
			literally
		
00:23:36 --> 00:23:38
			or by implication.
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:45
			So what is the definition of Hadith? Whatever Rasool Allah is Allah Sallam said,
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:50
			Whatever he did, and whatever he allowed
		
00:23:55 --> 00:23:58
			whatever he said, Whatever he spoke, what is hora?
		
00:24:01 --> 00:24:10
			Para is Kala mala be zoete Muhammad Mustafa sallallahu alayhi wa and he was happy with them.
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:18
			It is the kerravala I don't say it is the Mohammed saucer. No it is not. It is the Kalam of Allah
but where did you get it from?
		
00:24:20 --> 00:24:27
			You got it from the tongue. And in the beautiful voice of Mohammed Salah Harrison
		
00:24:28 --> 00:24:31
			and what did Allah subhanaw taala say in this column?
		
00:24:32 --> 00:24:44
			Allah Allah, Allah ha one malai Cotta, who you soluna Allah nebby yeah are you and Edina Amano San
Lucia Lee was Sunday Buddhists Lima.

00:24:57 --> 00:24:59
			They send blessings.

			On surah lies is lm those who believe or you who believe yeah you are Latina. Armando,
		
00:25:11 --> 00:25:44
			what is the meaning of that address in the Quran? It means it is an address of Hong Kong, it is an
order and instruction being good balance to those who believe if you want to if you want to refuse
that instruction, then you are saying by your action will Amell you are saying I am not among those
who believe because the instruction you gave is for those who believe I refused to follow the
instruction. So, I am not from those who believe your instruction does not apply to me.
		
00:25:46 --> 00:25:49
			And I said yeah, whether the domino, son do it.
		
00:25:51 --> 00:25:59
			You also send, make dua that Allah subhanho wa Taala should bless him Allahumma salli ala Sayyidina
Muhammad
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:04
			wa ala Ali Mohammed Gama Salida Rahim Allah.

			Allah, Allah Muhammad, Ali Mohammed, Omar Abdullah Ibrahim Ali Ibrahim.
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:24
			Please understand, you don't want to send salatu salam wa sallam, please don't.
		
00:26:25 --> 00:26:30
			He doesn't need it. Good Allah subhanho wa Taala sends allamani What is your solemn worth?
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:44
			We send zelican sulamani because we need it. As soon as our salons are the one who sends Allah Salam
on me, Allah send Salam on that person 10 times for every one time
		
00:26:46 --> 00:26:54
			he told us Do not be burfield he said Do not be a person who is stingy in sending syrup and salami.
		
00:26:57 --> 00:27:07
			The head is that we have our million times almost every single Ramadan by our in every country in
the world will have this rasulillah salam centered the rainbow
		
00:27:08 --> 00:27:15
			when you stood on the first episode, I mean, then you went on the second step easier. I mean, when
you went to the third step reser I mean,
		
00:27:16 --> 00:27:29
			the Sava rizwana had a minivan they asked him when he had finished his Salah When he had finished
his hold back. They said you know sola sola Allison sallam, you did something today which you had
never done before. So please
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:45
			tell us and you know, guide us. You said I mean three times why Rajaratnam said when I stood on the
first step of the of the member dubray ceram came to me and he said, Yasser Allah
		
00:27:48 --> 00:28:00
			for the one who gets Ramadan and does not manage to get the forgiveness of Allah, meaning he gets
Ramadan but he regrets he neglects Allah.
		
00:28:02 --> 00:28:08
			Maybe he doesn't fires you doesn't pray, doesn't give sadaqa does not do anything and like any other
month which comes and goes.
		
00:28:10 --> 00:28:20
			So someone who gets Ramadan and is not able to get the forgiveness of Allah subhanho wa Taala Allah
subhanho wa Taala has cursed him as cast him far away See, I mean,
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:51
			and I said I mean, then he said on the second step, he said, Oh Yasser Allah sallallahu sallam, if
somebody finds their parents and they are in the presence of their parents, and Allah has given them
elderly parents, do one or both of them. And this person does not serve them and does not get their
daughter and does not and does not help them and is not kind to them. Then Allah has cursed him and
cast him far away. Say I mean,
		
00:28:52 --> 00:29:12
			that was that I said, I mean, and then the third step during the ceram said, Yasser Allah sallallahu
sallam, if your name comes, I'm not talking about the Shabbos drooling show, just the name Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, just the name the title Rasulullah sallallahu sallam.
		
00:29:13 --> 00:29:29
			Ya Rasulullah sallallahu sallam, if your name comes before some before Muslims of the year, your
name and they do not send salah and Salah Manu, Allah has cursed them and cast them far away. You
say I mean, the original Serbs and I said I mean,
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:51
			now you will tell me an action. Which if you do it one time, it gets you 10 salam and Salawat and
and blessing from Allah. And if you deliberately leave it and refuse to do it, Allah has cursed you
and asked to faraway you. What do you what do you want do that action?
		
00:29:52 --> 00:29:59
			What is your value for that action? This is the value of the road. This is the value of settings
Allah, Allah Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. They don't do
		
00:30:00 --> 00:30:03
			Everything begins with the attitude. You're studying Islam forward.
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:14
			Are you studying Islam for the deen? To have to be your shaeffer to be your intercessor with Allah
		
00:30:15 --> 00:30:16
			for general john
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:21
			because the religion will do both.
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:23
			That is why
		
00:30:25 --> 00:30:38
			we need the Amal, I'm studying Islam. Is it good for me or not? I don't know depends on my knee
depends on my knee I am studying Islam and that is why Arizona sanim said this
		
00:30:40 --> 00:31:01
			restaurant said do not study Islam for three reasons. One to argue with the fuqaha to to look good
before the sofa to impress the fools and regular people and three to attract the eyes of people
meaning for popularity for money for you know Facebook likes he didn't say well
		
00:31:04 --> 00:31:08
			do not study for these three go sorry to argue.
		
00:31:09 --> 00:31:17
			don't study to look good before fools. They don't have anything so you localize the bureau good
before the obatala Mashallah, oh bottom row.
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:21
			And the third thing is
		
00:31:22 --> 00:31:25
			do not study then, in order to
		
00:31:27 --> 00:31:31
			become popular to attract the eyes of people to make money out of Islam.
		
00:31:34 --> 00:31:36
			My brother sisters seriously think about this.
		
00:31:38 --> 00:31:46
			Islam is the biggest. Absolutely the number one wealth
		
00:31:47 --> 00:32:05
			that Allah subhanho wa Taala would have given us any give it to us. Without asking. He gave it to us
because of his Rama. He gave it to us as a blessing. The give it to us free of cost. And May Allah
forgive us that's the reason why we have no value for it.
		
00:32:07 --> 00:32:23
			We think size of border where a Salah is the biggest benefit, it is the biggest asset. It is the
biggest strength it is the weapon it is the power it is I don't have words to try to explain to the
value of something
		
00:32:24 --> 00:32:27
			and you think it's a border. You want to make shortcuts out of it.
		
00:32:29 --> 00:32:34
			And you want to shorten your Salah by not resetting the rule. I mean how misguided is that?
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:45
			Really is one way to think so why don't I go BMD how schatten plays games with the minds of people.
		
00:32:49 --> 00:32:51
			Mega stefarr matoba
		
00:32:52 --> 00:32:53
			Magnus departamento
		
00:32:55 --> 00:32:56
			ask yourself why am I studying Islam?
		
00:32:58 --> 00:32:59
			Correct that Nia
		
00:33:02 --> 00:33:14
			engineer before you reach a stage where that knowledge becomes a problem for you. It is already a
problem. But meaning you will see the results of that problem and that is when the last British
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:22
			study Islam out of love. Study Islam out of shock.
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:26
			Otto's great enthusiasm
		
00:33:28 --> 00:33:32
			you know when I was in my youth, and I was in school and got it.
		
00:33:33 --> 00:33:34
			I used to ride every single day.
		
00:33:36 --> 00:33:43
			I still love horses, I still love riding but I don't get an opportunity or too much or at all. But
in those days
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:46
			every single day.
		
00:33:48 --> 00:33:49
			I love riding
		
00:33:51 --> 00:33:56
			in those days. The winning quotes worst day for me it was Monday because Monday the writing club was
closed.
		
00:33:58 --> 00:33:59
			That was a big holiday.
		
00:34:01 --> 00:34:10
			Every single day I would wake up at the crack of dawn I would you know go all the way to the writing
club xtracycle or I used to go on a had a moped
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:18
			I used to I used to ride there and then I would ride horses for two hours.
		
00:34:19 --> 00:34:24
			And I would come back home every single day of my life.
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:33
			I lived and I for me the best and most beautiful perfume was what the stables smelled like
		
00:34:35 --> 00:34:50
			go and groom the horse and I would clean out this mock out the stables and then I would saddle the
horse and I would ride and I would then take that off and groom dogs back again and take it to the
water drink and then I'd say this is what every single day This was my routine.
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:52
			And I loved it.
		
00:34:54 --> 00:35:00
			Nobody was paying me for it. I was actually paying but I was paying a fee. Those days it was it was
money but in those
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:09
			There's a very little money when what was you know? Today if I say I was paying two rupees, you
might say, well you know what is that it doesn't even buy a cup of tea true
		
00:35:10 --> 00:35:12
			in those days two rupees bottle eight cups of tea
		
00:35:13 --> 00:35:14
			so it had value.
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:23
			The point I'm making here is not about I am saying the point I'm saying here is that if you have
Shulk if you love something, if you really want to do something,
		
00:35:24 --> 00:35:26
			then doing it is a pleasure.
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:45
			If you take the amount of effort it made in those days, one liter of petrol costs less than one
rupee Indian rupee I remember the day petrol plus to tea oil, you know, there's to put oil in the in
the petrol itself in the tank, the lubricant in the water poppet.
		
00:35:46 --> 00:35:56
			That day, I paid a full rupee and I paid him one rupee, and he didn't give me any any change back. I
thought to myself, my God, I mean, this world is coming to an end and how expensive things have
become.
		
00:36:00 --> 00:36:09
			So there I was, a kid in senior school, had no obviously no income. And you know, my parents were
kind enough to give me that money for my horse riding.
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:14
			So I was spending money, I was spending a lot of time.
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:17
			Obviously, a lot of energy.
		
00:36:18 --> 00:36:37
			No one had to wake me up. No one had to ever. And I didn't miss it one single day, and never
overslept. Because it was this love for horse riding, which gives me which ensures that I woke up on
time, and read more sunshine, I went,
		
00:36:38 --> 00:36:46
			I loved it. And today, 4050 years later, I still think of those days with great nostalgia with, you
know, literally in my mouth waters.
		
00:36:51 --> 00:36:54
			question I'm asking you is, what is your orientation towards a lot?
		
00:36:56 --> 00:37:02
			What is your orientation towards Bahamas? itself? What is your orientation towards Islam?
		
00:37:04 --> 00:37:05
			Is it like what I'm describing to you?
		
00:37:08 --> 00:37:13
			Is it that you this is this is where you are, this is where you want to be? This is what I want?
I've got it under
		
00:37:18 --> 00:37:18
			my umbrella.
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:23
			All praise and glory to you.
		
00:37:26 --> 00:37:31
			What is it to say, Oh, God, again, time to pray.
		
00:37:32 --> 00:37:34
			Man, I wish Why did we have this fight? I mean, you know,
		
00:37:36 --> 00:37:38
			why does Allah need five minutes? Now?
		
00:37:45 --> 00:37:45
			Which one?
		
00:37:48 --> 00:37:48
			Do you think about this?
		
00:37:50 --> 00:37:51
			Please think about this.
		
00:37:52 --> 00:38:04
			Because this is critically why as I told you, this is the most important thing that you will ever
hear from you or I will tell you that is what is your attitude towards Islam.
		
00:38:06 --> 00:38:20
			And I told you, they will come when that attitude and the implication of their attitude will become
absolutely crystal clear. And that day would be the day when you are laying on a slab.
		
00:38:23 --> 00:38:26
			And that day will come to every single one of us.
		
00:38:28 --> 00:38:32
			Every single one of us nobody but nobody is exempt
		
00:38:34 --> 00:38:34
			from
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:36
			that day
		
00:38:38 --> 00:38:41
			are from that line on that slab
		
00:38:42 --> 00:38:47
			I'm speaking figurative Do you might say well you know, what if I get vaporized in a,
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:52
			in a nuclear explosion on something May Allah protect all of us on these things.
		
00:38:53 --> 00:38:55
			But no matter what, no matter what.
		
00:38:59 --> 00:39:04
			We will stand before Allah And on that day before anything else,
		
00:39:05 --> 00:39:14
			this hedis will be the criteria based on which our Amal will be judged. What was the intention of
this person?
		
00:39:15 --> 00:39:18
			When he or she did this action? What was their intention?
		
00:39:20 --> 00:39:32
			What are they trying to escape obedience? Or were they being grateful slaves that they were seeking
to obey more and more,
		
00:39:33 --> 00:39:36
			with more and more shock? Which one?
		
00:39:37 --> 00:39:59
			Ask Allah subhanaw taala. To be pleased with you and never to be displeased ask Allah subhanaw taala
to enable us to be thankful to him and to really and really and really thank him for Islam. Because
there is no word wealth better than that. ask Allah subhanaw taala to be to help us to live this
religion and to practice this religion with great joy and great
		
00:40:00 --> 00:40:00
			leisure.
		
00:40:01 --> 00:40:18
			And we ask Allah to accept this from us and to wipe out our faults and to accept our actions in a
way that suits His Majesty and grace. And I we asked a lot smarter to cover you with His mercy and
His forgiveness. And we asked him to grant to Jonathan for those without any reason, whatsoever.
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:22
			He was happy it may be Robert Muller, he made 100
