My brothers and sisters, I remind myself and
you that all of Allah
promises are for the
for the people of Taqwa, for the people
for whom Allah
will is the one and only final
criterion of decision making.
People who live their lives
to please Allah.
And every decision they take is based on,
does it please Allah
or
not? For such people, Allah
promised Jannah.
Now, Allah sent Ramadan
for us to become.
We are now halfway through Ramadan.
So let's
try to assess for ourselves how many of
the qualities of
we have been able to inculcate in ourselves.
I remind myself anyway that in the end,
it's only action that counts.
We will not be asked, what did you
know? We will be asked, what did you
do?
Knowledge that is not acted upon will become
witness against us.
Let us not be those who knew but
did not act.
Allah defined
the.
He said
Allah said which means verily
the will
be amid
in gardens and springs in Jannah.
We ask Allah
to make us among those.
Taking joy in the things which the Arab
has given them.
Verily,
they were before this.
They used to sleep,
but little by night,
invoking their and
praying with fear and hope.
And in the hours before dawn, they were
found asking Allah for forgiveness.
And in their properties,
there was the right
of the beggar and the.
Is somebody who is poor, but who does
not ask, who doesn't beg.
And on the earth are signs for those
who have faith with certainty
and also in in your own selves.
Will you not then see?
If you see these beautiful,
Allah
mentioned 4 qualities of the.
So let's see what we
have. Number 1,
they spend time with their in
in
the night
and in
the.
I cannot possibly overemphasize
the importance of this wonderful time
of the Hajjut.
And I remind myself when you let us
use
to make this into a lifelong habit.
In Ramadan, we are getting up now for
so we wake up early.
And
I recommend that we wake up earlier than
the time for so
and
pray some
at least
and ask Allah
and
then have
to maybe read some Quran.
Allah said about this time and the people
who wake up.
Allah said, they abandoned their beds. They get
up from their sides invoking their up with
hope and fear.
They make
this is the position of the believer
between the fear of the punishment of Allah
and hope in his forgiveness.
And Allah said, and they spend they donate
from what we have provided for them.
We are alone. Allah said no soul, no
person
can even imagine what delights are kept in
store for them as a reward for what
they used to do.
2nd quality, they make and seek forgiveness.
Making
is a sign that Allah loves
you.
Said that the sign that Allah loves a
slave
is that he
reminds him of the sins that he committed
so that he can make his tafar. He
can seek repentance again and again and again.
When we make his tafar, we make his
tafar with the complete certainty that InshaAllah Allah
Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala has forgiven us.
But we are not. So therefore, when we
make it so far a second time and
a third time and a 10th time is
not because we doubt
the forgiveness,
but because
the more we make it so far, the
more we are showing our,
our our,
you know, our regret,
and our conscience,
at,
at what we did. We were so sorry
about what we did. So making istafar again
and again is a sign of,
the mercy of Allah.
Allah said, but Allah would never punish them
while you,
yeah, Muhammad SAWSAWA
were in their midst.
We're among them, nor would he ever punish
them if they prayed for forgiveness.
The way we can have Rasulullah
to this day with us is by following
his sunnah.
So when he the ayat when the ayat
came, he was there physically with the Saab.
Today, he's not physically with us. But
in his sunnah, we have his presence. So
never leave any sunnah of the of the
thinking it is too small because it is
not the action. It is who the action
represents.
So we we we ask Allah to make
us among those who
follow the sunnah of Rasoolullah
with our hearts filled with love for him.
And Allah said and Allah will never punish
them
As long as they keep making
As long as they keep praying for forgiveness,
Allah will not will not punish them. So
second quality. 3rd quality,
they consider the one who asks and the
one who is in need but doesn't ask,
alsail
wal mahrog,
to have a right in their property.
And the question is not just, you know,
giving charity.
The question is doing it with
dignity, treating the person who's asking with dignity,
being thankful to that person that they asked
to
so that you could
have an opportunity to spend in the path
of Allah
because remember,
whatever you had with you, as long as
it was with you, it was expendable. It
was something which was,
which would finish.
You would spend it. It's gone. But when
you take the same thing and you spend
it in the path of Allah,
it becomes eternal.
It becomes
forever because it goes to Allah
Charity is a matter of that's why I
all I always call it investment because it's
an investment a charity we used to invest
in.
It's a matter of transferring of,
wealth from
point a to point b. Point a is
which will finish.
Point b
is which will be forever.
What is with Allah will remain forever.
Allah mentioned this and he praised this.
They feed despite their own desire for it
to the poor,
to people, to the orphan and the captive
saying to themselves,
we feed you only for the sake of
Allah, seeking neither reward nor thanks from you.
So when they're giving the charity, they're not
waiting for the person to say thank you.
They're not saying they're thankless people. They never
thank me. No. You do the work for
the sake of Allah
alone.
And finally, the 4th quality is they reflect
on the creation of Allah both
outside and within, and they recognize and glorify
Allah
and turn towards him. Allah
says,
We will show them our signs in the
universe and within themselves
until it becomes clear to them that this
Quran is the truth.
Is it not enough that your Rabb is
a witness over all things?
So Allah asked, remind myself and you, let
us remember Allah
and let us remember Allah
with great humility and humbleness and thank Allah
for having given us the opportunity
to remember him and to,
worship him. And we ask Allah to enable
is pleasing to him.
is pleasing to him.
