My brothers and
sisters, the topic of my today
is
sadness.
I wanted to begin this with the
ayah.
And recited that as the first ayat in
the first of,
of.
So Insha Allah,
The word
means sadness,
regret, sadness.
And,
in the Qayb, he
says, hosun is haram in Islam.
And he says, this is haram because the
word
in the Quran
does not appear except in the form of
forbidding it.
So Allah said,
Allah negates it.
So
in
the
said
to
he
said to his
friend, his companion,
in the cave.
Do not be sad. Allah is with us.
Right?
The I which I recited, Allah
said,
those are the people
So these are the 2 conditions.
We accept
We have accepted Allah
as our
So
actions which take us towards the.
This is the is
the.
So for them,
Allah
said
There is no
fear for them and there is no sadness
for them. Now fear is with respect to
the future.
Tomorrow what will happen? I don't know. What
will happen to the economy? Will there be
a 3rd world war? Will I be sick?
Will I be there's there's there's many things.
And huzun is with respect to the past.
Oh, I did this, I did this, I
did I should have made this decision. I
took a wrong decision. Whatever. Right? So Allah
is saying for these people,
there is no fear and there's no sadness.
And these are the people of Jannah and
they will be in Jannah forever.
Right?
So
the reason is because
there is no benefit
of having sadness
in the heart
and the most beloved thing for Satan is
to make the believing slave Abdullah and Amatullah
sad by taking them off track.
Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
took
refuge from Allah
from sadness.
Now, Ibn Qayyim says
that sadness weakens the heart
and it
diminishes
determination
and wanting to go forward. And there is
nothing more beloved to Shaitan than the sadness
of a believer
because sadness goes and takes us towards
hopelessness, towards despair
And despair is lack of faith. Despair is.
Right? We if somebody says I have no
hope, he's.
That is where it leads. Sadness is the
first step
but if you leave it there, then it
takes you.
This is negative, that is negative, that is
negative, and so on, so on, so on.
What is the hope in this world? See
what is happening in philosophy. See what is
happening in this place, that place. All our
leaders are bad leaders. I mean, there is
no end to this,
and that is the reason I say always,
whenever this kind of conversation happens, either leave
the place, go away, or
turn it,
and force yourself to look at
the good things.
For example, alhamdulillah,
whatever is happening anywhere else, we are sitting
here
in comfort,
in safety,
and we are remembering Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.
We prayed Salatulisha.
We heard such beautiful khira'at of Quran.
Right?
Now where is the thankfulness for this?
How much of our conversation is on this
on these
lines?
No. We should monitor our it's very important.
We monitor our conversation. When we are speaking,
just think about it. How many times do
you talk about the about politics of this
place, that place? And
never not one word have I ever heard
of any politics of any place which is
positive.
Only negative.
Right?
Why?
So if you simply listen to our conversation,
it seems as if we are already living
in Jhana.
Everything is
bad.
Where there is so much of good.
So much of good.
I was in based here this morning for
an MRI, and I was looking at the
at the hospital,
the facilities,
the people,
and, you know, we talk about ins say,
insurance. This is a big insurance racket in
the American.
Okay. Leave that aside. But the fact of
the matter is, if you have insurance,
then all that treatment for you is free.
If you take that treatment
in I know what what it cost in
India.
I'm not mentioning names and so on because
these things go all over the world, but
I know friends of ours who all of
you also know
the kind of treatment that they had to
give for their child and the child, alhamdulillah,
fully recovered
from
something where this child on the face of
it was as good as dead.
Completely recovered. And I know of 2 2
such cases.
To get that same treatment
in India,
that man would have been on the street.
He would have had to sell his house,
his wife's jewelry, his everything, and he would
have been standing with a begging bowl on
the street to give that same treatment to
his parents. Still, he would not get that
treatment of that quality which he got from
the Boston Children's Hospital.
So should we not thank Allah for this?
Alhamdulillah. Allah
brought us and kept us in a place
where we have all this.
Shaytan takes us off track.
Always negative.
I'm not saying negative is not there. Please
understand this. I'm I'm not trying to spin
some no. There is negative. I agree. But
it's our choice.
Do I want to look at that or
do I want to look at this?
My principle in life is I will look
at the negative which I can change.
If I can't change that, I don't look
at it. I will say leave it all.
What can I do?
Our hot topic, we should have it also
in our hearts because it's something which is
close to us and which is painful, which
is what is happening in Palestine. This is
happening in Rafa, Gaza, so on and so
on. But can you change that? Can I
change that? No. What can we do?
And I asked this question to many many
people. You are making so much of talk
about
Philistine.
Did you pray 2 rakaat of the Hajjut
tonight, last night, this night, and did you
cry before Allah did tears come in your
eyes? Did did this happen or not? If
it did not happen, then you have no
right to talk about it because Allah is
the one who can correct it. You don't
talk to Allah.
But you want to waste your time and
everybody else's time by saying this is bad,
that is bad. See, look at this.
Please stay away from this. There's no benefit
in sadness.
There's no benefit in huzul.
Look at the positive things in life.
Negative things, look at those which you can
control. Go control them. Do something about it.
Not
this. This doesn't help anybody. Go and do
something about it.
And what you cannot do anything about, and
there are things like this. Turn to Allah.
See, Arab, this is yours.
I can cry before you, I will cry.
I can ask you. I will ask. I
I can wake up in the night when
you are when you are there close to
me. I will wake up and I will
do. This much I will do because this
is this is in my control. I will
do this. I will not be lying there
sleeping in my bed.
And then I wake up and I pray
fajr or not even. And then I make
a big noise. Look at this. Look at
this.
And that's why Ibrahim says this is something
which is very bad. He said don't ruin
your happiness with worry and don't ruin your
mind with pessimism.
Don't ruin your success with deception and don't
ruin the optimism of others by destroying it.
Don't ruin your day
by looking back at back at yesterday. If
you think about your situation, you will find
that Allah
has given you things without asking. So have
trust in Allah.
This is so true, Allah.
Allah has given us, if you simply make
a list, the things I have from Allah
make into 2 parts.
Those I made dua and I got. And
those I got without making dua.
Just do this.
You know, we this is very unfortunate. Even
our deenie education
is only books. This, read, this, read, this,
read, this. Quran, Tajweed. Okay. This is Tajweed.
This is the correct oh, no, no. This
should be there. No here. There should be
a mom, no mother.
Nobody ever asked the question. You recite a
desire. What did it do in your heart?
Does somebody ask this question? What happened to
your heart?
Why don't you ask this question? Allah asked
this question.
Tomorrow when we talk about you know, on
Saturday, we'll be talking about the foundation of
faith I will tell you. But my point
is that this question, I've never heard of
anybody. Right?
Now I'm not saying that this is not
of course it is important. But which is
more important?
That the Quran must change my heart? Is
this more important? Or that I must pronounce
it correctly? Is that more which is more
important?
Please pronounce correctly. I'm not saying do it
wrong. Please pronounce correct. But with the best
pronunciation in the world, if it is not
touching your heart.
One day somebody complained to me. What about
Sheikh?
He said, Sheikh,
why does he recite 1 ayah 3 times,
4 times?
He he what is it?
I said, if you can understand what he
say, you will recite it 10,000 times.
He recited he recited it 4 times because
he understands what he's saying. You don't understand
why you're in music.
We listen to the. Oh,
beautiful. What do you mean beautiful girl? What
is the meaning of that? Is there a
difference between this and and and some song?
A tune for you and the nice tune,
nice voice.
Is that the Maqsa of the Muslim of
the Quran?
So remove all sadness. Alhamdulillah.
For the believer, big smile on the face.
No sadness.
What we can change, we will change.
What we cannot change, we
beg Allah to change.
Alhamdulillah.
And our job,
gratitude,
thankfulness, we thank Allah. Alhamdulillah, Alhamdulillah,
Don't spoil your happiness and don't spoil the
happiness of others
by talking negatively. No.
We ask Allah
to fill our lives and our hearts with
his no and with his barakah and with
the hope of of himself
and the hope of.
And we ask Allah
to help us in ways that only he
can do and the ways in which we
cannot even imagine. And we ask Allah
to use us in order to spread goodness
and happiness
