Ramadan 2024 Reminders #25

Still on the subject of ethical,

it's very important, as I mentioned to you,

to maintain

the sanctity of the other calf. There are

2 or 3 things that are important. Number

1 is to

make sure that you do not leave the

boundary of the masjid because the adhakaaf is

within the masjid.

The place where adhakaaf is the masjid, and

you should not leave the boundary of the

masjid

unless it is for something critical. For example,

if you are doing a takeoff in the

masjid where there's no toilet and no bathroom,

and you need to go to the toilet,

toilet is outside the masjid.

This happens in in, in some countries. I

mean, I

I've I've I have done a take up

massages like this, then it is permitted for

you to go to the bathroom outside the

masjid. Similarly, if you are alone and you

have nobody at all to bring food for

you, for example, and, obviously, you need to

eat and you can't cook in the budget.

So,

it is permitted for you to go,

either to your home or wherever your food

is and bring the food, but don't spend

time there. Don't sit around there and chat

with people and so on. If you go

home, then don't, you know, spend time with

your family

and so on in the name of collecting

food. No. Just go

collect the food. If necessary, don't even enter

the house. Just let somebody hand the food

to you, and you bring the food and

eat the food in the Masjid. Don't eat

there. Don't eat at the place

where you got the food from. That's very

important too. Make sure that you

maintain this sanctity

of the boundary of the masjid because if

you don't do that, then your becomes invalid.

If the breaks,

then you have to come back

to the same masjid in a state of

fasting and complete that. So it's a,

you know, it's a big problem. So don't,

don't put yourself in that situation.

The purpose of Ithacaq, as I said, is

to get close to Allah. So one of

the things to do in the Ithacaq is

to reflect on our own lives and say

what kind of life have I been leading?

Is this a life which will get me

close to Allah, or is it life which

is driving me away from

So make the near,

sit and introspect, write notes for yourself,

and make the near of changing your life.

Whatever in your life needs to be changed

must be changed. Whether it is how you

earn your money, whether it is what you

eat, how you treat people,

your family, friends, your relatives,

your outside,

your your employees, employers, whatever.

Right? Whatever changes that are needed to be

made in our life to please Allah must

be made, and you must be made to

make these changes. And after you come out

for ithagaf, you,

you make the changes.

Ithagaf is a very the biggest benefit of

ithagaf is that you were sure to get

lines of color because it's in those transden

lights. So whichever night it is, InshaAllah, the

person in etaGap

can be sure, InshaAllah, that he or she

has got itikaf, that he has got light

or color, and the reward of them to

Khazir is kayrum min alfisha,

more than the value of worshiping Allah

Allah continuously

for 1000 months.
