Mirza Yawar Baig – Ramadan Reminders – Day 5

			Hello Hello.
		

			Hello Bill alameen wa salatu salam ala freedom v when was really hammered Rasul Allah is Allah Allah
highly evolved he was able to send them to sleep and within kathira from Abbado My dear brothers and
sisters, we continue with our series of reminders for Ramadan al Karim, we ask Allah subhanho wa
Taala to enable us to become a tepee and to use this month in a way that pleases His grace and
majesty and which will become a source of great higher and Baraka for us in this life and in the
next life. inshallah. We're talking about the issue of
		

			the purpose of Ramadan which Allah subhanaw taala described and said Hootie Valley Kumasi, Latina
Ave quotevalet Kumasi, amo Camargo de vida Latina Camila, Camila condado, which means all you
believe
		

			fasting has been prescribed upon you, as it was prescribed on those before you so that you have
become a motor home. And over the last four days, I have also mentioned to you and explained to you
my understanding of taqwa and how we can build the which is by entirely increasing our show, and
increasing our hope of Allah subhanho. We increase her show by reflecting and contemplating on the
glory and majesty and the holder of the power of Allah subhanho wa Taala and increase our
		

			hope of Allah the love of Allah by reflecting on and thanking Allah subhanho data for his blessings.
My brothers sisters, I remind you and myself
		

			that the blessings of Allah subhanho wa Taala, it is very important not to understand the glory and
majesty of Allah subhanaw taala is comparatively easy, because
		

			it's very visible, and it's very clear, right? Be it small or big, whether you are contemplating on
the size of the universe, for example,
		

			there is a beautiful video where this man tries to explain the size of the universe. And he holds up
a grain of sand on the tip of his tongue, tip of his finger. And then he holds it up like that at
arm's length. And he says, shut one eye and look at that. And he says the part of the sky or the
universe that is
		

			blocked out by that grain of sand on the tip of your finger
		

			contains billions of galaxies, the size of our galaxy, which is called the Milky Way, billions of
galaxies, we're not talking about planetary system, we're not talking about solar systems, we're
definitely not even talking about planets and forever The earth is not doesn't even come into the
into the calculation, billions of galaxies the size of our Milky Way. So if you whether you're
contemplating on that, and this is the, what is called the known universe, which is what is visible
to us through the Hubble telescope, and through various space probes that we have, and whatever
technology that is available to us today.
		

			That's the visible universe. Now what is the invisible universe which is beyond that only Allah
knows. And Allah subhanho data is not just the creator of the sun and the moon, compared to this
size, the sun and the moon are nothing they're less than nothing. And the earth is even less because
the Earth The sun is
		

			roughly what is it the exact number I forget, but it's like, you know 300,000 times or something
like this
		

			bigger and more massive than the Earth and more. And if that is nothing, then the earth can you can
imagine the significance of the earth.
		

			So, that is the glory and magnificence of Allah subhanaw taala when we reflect on it from in the in
the in the context of massive thing, if you look at it in the in, in the context of small things, we
have the most glaring example of that, which is the which is the corona COVID virus. One thing which
is microscopic, which cannot even be seen, by the naked eye, brought the earth to its knees brought
the human race to its knees, all the power and all the wealth and all the weapons and all everything
of the human race could do nothing to prevent
		

			themselves from being affected. They could do nothing. The only thing they could do was to shut
themselves down and even that didn't prevent literally hundreds of 1000s in I think if I take the
global number it's it's a couple of million people from dying because of this virus.
		

			Even today, even with the vaccine,
		

			we do not have an effective cure for the virus we don't we don't even have an effective 100%
protection from the virus, everything has become relative. Right? Now the point is, this is also the
glory and majesty of Allah, and everything else in between and everything is beyond the biggest and
everything is beyond the smallest, smaller than this one is bigger than the biggest. These are the
glory of Allah Sparta. But with regard to the nehama of Allah to the blessings of Allah, this is a
more complex process, because in many cases,
		

			the blessings of Allah subhanaw taala sometimes come disguised as trials and tribulations as
difficulties. Right, you think of the beginning of the earth, water came to this earth in the form
of a strong, and you can imagine the colossal size of that storm, the kind of what it must have
done, because that water is the sum total of the water that we have on the earth today. What we see
and what we don't see even the subterranean water is part of that storm. All the oceans are part of
that straw. Imagine that we imagine the water of all the oceans together, hits you what happens to
you. And then of course, that storm was bigger than that, because it all that water which came to
		

			the earth also went to Mercury and Venus.
		

			Right. And then the earth had a colossal collision with another planet called Thea, which was about
the size of the Earth and on an intersecting orbit, and we met and the result was that the central
core of sia, which was made of iron,
		

			entered the earth and became part of the core of the Earth and the mantle of the accreted onto the
mantle of the earth.
		

			So both Earth both iron and water came to us from outer space. Allah subhanaw taala sent that to the
earth. And of course, that last one that I mentioned this in the Quran,
		

			Allah says we have sent to Aladdin
		

			and Zelda and Zelda al Haddad. Allah has sent down muscle of the habit of iron.
		

			Now,
		

			today, if I ask you is water a NEMA blessing which of course because life cannot exist without
water? We are 70% made out of water. And of course Allah subhanaw taala told us that every living
thing he created out of water.
		

			But imagine that storm at the time of the stop did it look like an AMA didn't look like a blessing?
If you had to be there if I had been there of course we were not the object if we were if we had
been there did that look like? Would that have looked like a blessing? What about a collision? What
do you call a call you call a collision? May Allah protect us but you know if this earth even
collides with,
		

			with something no forget about some colliding with another planet, the size of the Earth.
		

			Even if it collides with something much smaller than that, we are looking at catastrophic
		

			catastrophe. The entire cities might get annihilated and you know millions of people and animals and
everything else might be might be wiped off the face of the earth. So a collision and a strong an
absolutely terrifying storm and a collision. You wouldn't call these blessings that I by any stretch
of the imagination. But that but today if you think about that, is that what what were these two
things blessings?
		

			These two things are probably the biggest blessings as far as in a material sense that as far as the
earth is concerned.
		

			What would the earth be without any water?
		

			It will be like Mars
		

			it will be like Venus.
		

			Right? No life is possible.
		

			Imagine iron and water all we do with
		

			the lesson we do from this is that let us now look into our own lives and say what are the storms
and collisions in my life and try to look at them with a different perspective and say, This is a
blessing from Allah subhanaw taala except that I am not able to see how it is a blessing. So two
things one is I thank Allah hamdulillah even if I don't see it 100 is a blessing. And secondly, you
ask Allah to show you how it's a blessing so that you can thank you even more.
		

			But there should be no word of thankless ness on our time. When we talk about what comes from Allah.
When we talk about what Allah subhanho wa Taala sends us in whichever way he serves us because he
knows.
		

			He knows
		

			the blessing sometimes comes disguised
		

			and you just throw
		

			thankfulness that we are able to see. Beyond the disguise was Allah Allah Allah Allah will carry
