Bismillah al Rahman al Rahim Al hamdu Lillahi Rabbil Alameen wa salatu salam ala I should have freedom the most serene. Muhammad Rasul Allah is Allah Allah Allah who I know only He will save you seldom doesn't even consider and cathedra from Nevada why brothers and sisters, this is the second in the series of lectures spirit of Ramadan.

00:00:24--> 00:00:31

Ramadan is the month of self reflection and introspection with intention of getting our lives back on track.

00:00:32--> 00:00:36

Our life is a journey which we hope will end in Jannah insha Allah

00:00:37--> 00:01:10

our parents Adam Alayhis Salam and how are they is around came from Jana. And when ALLAH SubhanA wa della sent them down to the earth He gave them the key to return home which is too far. They said to Allah subhanho Tana, Kala bananas, Nan Posada toquilla Now with the handle and Hakuna nominal facility, which means they replied our rub we have wronged ourselves. If you do not forgive us, and have mercy on us, we will certainly be losers.

00:01:14--> 00:01:37

to Vegas, Nevada Dawa is to acknowledge that we have a Creator, our rock geladeira law and to accept that we need him to be pleased with us in all matters, and therefore, to humble ourselves before Him and seek his bar. This is the key to Jana because it's the foreign dogma is the first step to develop Taqwa.

00:01:38--> 00:02:10

The mistake that our parents are the Malays, sallallahu alayhi salam made was to give precedence to their desire over the will of Allah subhanaw taala. They didn't deny Allah. But in that one instance, they denied the superiority of ALLAH SubhanA alters will, over their own desire to give Allah subhanaw taala as well it's do place as being superior to anything and everything that we may wish for is the essence of tequila.

00:02:11--> 00:02:38

A single instance of neglect caused our parents to lose Jana, but Allah subhanaw taala gave them the key to return which is the fourth I began with this primordial and fundamental incident because it is such a powerful message for us about where we need to start to return to Allah subhanaw taala It is never too soon or too late.

00:02:40--> 00:02:53

I remind myself a new to identify the things in our lives that must change and to change them and turn to Allah subhanaw taala and seek his forgiveness. Change proceeds and is evidence of the sincerity of seeking forgiveness.

00:02:55--> 00:03:05

Because Allah is about that already Yeah buddy and Lillian Asana for Allah unforeseen laptop annatto may Rahmatullah in hola yo federal xumo by Jamie.

00:03:06--> 00:03:08

In the whole world photo Rahim.

00:03:09--> 00:03:24

He said which means all say or messenger SallAllahu Sallam that Allah says, all my slaves who have transgressed against their souls. He says my slaves, even though we have transgressed

00:03:26--> 00:03:46

all my slaves who have transgressed against their souls against themselves, do not lose hope in Allah subhanho Dinah's mercy, for honest about Allah certainly forgives all sins, and He is most forgiving, and most merciful, all forgiving, Most Merciful.

00:03:48--> 00:04:40

In a beautiful Hadith and has been Malika Delana reported that Rasul Allah, He summarized his sentiments said, I'm not about that I said, all southern Nevada, I forgive you, if you worship Me alone, and hope for my forgiveness, whatever sins you have committed, or son of Adam, I do not care if your sins reached the height of the heavens, then you ask for my forgiveness, I will forgive you. Or sanowara If you come to me with an earth load of sins, and meet me, associating nothing with me, I will match it with an earth road of forgiveness. And this is so heavy in determining and Hamdulillah we have a merciful and forgiving Rob geladeira. Let us let us return to Him. The

00:04:40--> 00:04:59

blessing of Ramadan is to help us to develop taqwa, which is the secret to solve all our worldly problems and becoming deserving of a Muslim ban alternates forgiveness, and most amount of data declared the benefit of Taqwa and he said Rama yet tequila Jana whole Masada what

00:05:00--> 00:05:39

Here's where Zuko min Hazel dieters, him and her whoever is, has Dakwah our most valued key will make a way out for them and provide them from sources that they could never imagine. Not only did Allah subhanho The promise to help them with degree, the person of taqwa, but said that he would help him in ways that he couldn't imagine. Imagine the blind man is sitting in the cup of the troubleshoot a trussed up in ropes, about to be flung into a huge fire. Ask why he showed no signs of fear or worry. That is the meaning of Taqwa.

00:05:40--> 00:05:46

When a person has stopped what he has no will of his own. His will is the will of Allah subhana wa Danijela.

00:05:47--> 00:06:37

He wants whatever is wrapped Jana Jana who wants for him, in the case of Ibrahim alayhi salam when he demonstrated historical his trust in complete and total trust in Allah Subhana. Allah subhanaw taala directly ordered the fire to become a means of safety for him. Allah subhanaw taala did not put the fire out. The fire continue to burn. The people who throw him into the fire thought that they had one. But when he walked out of it safely, they knew that they had failed and that Allah subhanaw taala had protected his holy. Nobody at our club and Allah He for whom a husband and whoever puts their reward their trust in Allah that He alone is sufficient for them. The reward of

00:06:37--> 00:06:39

Taqwa is our call.

00:06:40--> 00:06:43

The reward of Taqwa is the workload.

00:06:47--> 00:07:24

When the slave is concerned about the pleasure of Allah subhanho data, and makes effort to try to get it, Allah subhanaw taala grants him peace of mind and freedom from all anxiety and stress. Darko is to have total trust in Allah subhanaw taala. And the reward for it is that Allah subhanaw taala will help us to feel his sufficiency for us. I remind myself I knew that this sufficiency is not only for this life, but much more importantly, for the hereafter, where we will need it the most. What can you say about the one

00:07:25--> 00:07:29

who Allah subhanaw taala assured that he would be sufficient.

00:07:30--> 00:07:49

Ask us around for this for us all, to make us with the code and solve our problems and extract us from our difficulties to keep us in the ranks of the waterworks alone, and to fill our hearts with his note and grace and love and to be sufficient for us in this world. And the next

00:07:50--> 00:08:24

I ask Allah subhanaw taala to make this Ramadan, the best in our lives and enable us to to maximize his blessings and earn the pleasure of Allah subhanaw taala. Ramadan comes to reset our standard, the criteria of what has value and what doesn't. When we stay away from even the halal during the hours of daylight, we are emphasizing for ourselves, that that what makes something good and valuable is not the thing in itself. But whether it pleases Allah subhanaw taala or not.

00:08:26--> 00:08:28

That is the meaning of odia

00:08:30--> 00:08:53

the slave has no will of His own, His will is the will of the Creator Allah subhana Hutan he wants whatever Allah wants for him, and not only accepts it, but is pleased with it. This is the essence of readability for that, to be pleased with the destiny that Allah subhanaw taala wrote for us, we see the worst part we see the most powerful example of that.

00:08:54--> 00:09:32

In the Sierra, in the incident drops forever Libya, let us put ourselves in the caravan going with Rasul Allah, Allah for Allah, he invited us and we knew that invitation was the result of a hate. And so we were going with complete belief that we would be able to do hombre and then thank Allah subhanho that this did not happen in our case. And Allah subhanaw taala saved us from this test. Because not only were the Sahaba not only were celibate the Sahaba stopped at Libya, but also as a seller signed a one sided treaty

00:09:33--> 00:09:59

and they had to return to Medina without performing Cobra. As we know from the details of the story, the Zabba were very upset and sad at this unexpected turn of events. Imagine the severity of the spiritual and emotional test that they faced a test of belief or test a very fundamental test of their belief itself. To the extent that said an armory was on Katara Delano even questioned

00:10:00--> 00:10:44

was was a solemn about it. Imagine the severity of this test here they were following as soon as Santa who they believed it, who had promised them that they would make over. But it turns out that they will not be able to do that they will not be able to do so. Their desire was pure, what is purer than the desire to worship Allah subhanaw taala yet they were stopped by the four h and refused entry into Makkah. And also salam accepted this and signed a one sided treaty. So when the salah ordered the Sahaba to shave their heads and sacrifice the animals, Nobody moved. They did not refuse to obey Him. But they did not move as soon as Santa was shocked, but he didn't insist or

00:10:44--> 00:10:54

repeat his command out of His mercy for his ummah, because to deliberately disobey. I command of Ross Ross Cerebus, Cofer

00:10:55--> 00:11:39

and takes you out of his left. He got up from where he was sitting, and went inside his tent. His wife, our mother, on the Santa Monica Delana saw his expression and asked him what was wrong. He said, My mama is destroying itself. She asked him what had happened when he told her she said Yasser Allah, please go out and do it yourself and and inshallah they will follow you. So as I said, I took her advice, and did that. On a side note, pause for a moment and think of this beautiful relationship between Rasulullah saw Salaam and his wife. He didn't argue with our boomerang gonna. He listened to her and accepted her advice. And so it happened. He came out of his tent, and called

00:11:39--> 00:11:45

said earlier with Oliver Delano to bring the sacrificial animals to slaughter and to shave his own breasted.

00:11:51--> 00:11:53

The Saba Lama

00:11:55--> 00:12:11

got up and followed his actions. Nobody argued or descended. With tears flowing down their cheeks, they shaved each other's heads and made their sacrifices but not even one of them, refused to obey Rasul Allah so

00:12:13--> 00:12:25

when the Saba accepted Rasulullah salams decision and return to return to Medina, Allah subhanaw taala called it a manifest victory

00:12:27--> 00:12:31

and revealed Surah Surah unfort

00:12:32--> 00:13:11

the real victory and Allah revealed this enough time will be in a very Allah has given you a manifest victory. The real victory there was the victory over the knifes over personal desire. In this case, the desire was noble and pious, but with ALLAH SubhanA wa Jalla, the obedience to Him and Russell's Salem was more worthy of reward. The reward was that though the treaty was for the suspension of hostility for a period of 10 years, I'm not gonna give the Muslims maca itself after two years, that is why

00:13:12--> 00:13:33

I called them they be the final qualifying exam of the sahaba. This reiterates the fundamental criteria of right and wrong and Islam, that without the pleasure the approval of another man odana decides if something is right or wrong, not the thing and it's not the thing itself.

00:13:34--> 00:14:22

But whether Allah so whether it pleases Allah subhanaw taala or not virtue is to do what Allah subhanaw taala wants us to do. Sin is do is to do the opposite to do what we want to do, even though that is against what Allah subhanaw taala wants us to do. It is not the action, but whether it pleases Allah subhanaw taala or not, which is important when the Saba followed Rasulillah Salam, despite whatever difficulty or reservations they may have had Allah subhanaw taala call it a manifest victory and open Bucha for them. That is why Allah's Valterra declared that to obey rasool Allah says Allah is to obey Allah subhanho wa Taala himself. Allah said My UT Rasul Allah, Allah

00:14:23--> 00:14:59

momento Allah from Santa chi li Murphy's law. In Surah Nisa, Allah said, Whoever obeys the messenger has truly of it. But whoever turns away then know that we have not sent you Oh hamazon Center as a keeper over them. And then he said then I didn't know who were my Otago. rasuluh for Hello, Mama and I had Qumran who Fanta who what the cola in the Lucha shaadi.com He said, whatever the messenger gives you take it, and whatever he forbids you from leaving it And fear Allah surely

00:15:00--> 00:15:16

Light is severe and punishment. This is the spirit of Ramadan and the essence of Taqwa. In Ramadan. We make what is normally Halal haram on ourselves. Only because ALLAH SubhanA wa Donna ordered it. There is no other reason

00:15:18--> 00:15:40

that emphasizes for us the foundation of Islam or Madea complete submission to Allah subhanaw taala in everything, and as it happened in the case of the Sahaba it will they be, it will happen with us insha Allah, Allah subhanaw taala granted them success in this world and honored them in the akhira by declaring that he was pleased with them.

00:15:42--> 00:15:47

Allah subhanaw taala acknowledged the value of their obedience

00:15:48--> 00:15:51

and called it obedience to himself.

00:15:53--> 00:16:36

In an arena you buy your own aka innama Yubari. When Allah your doula, you photocopy the hem for about NACA for Innova young Kosova NFC, mobile Alpha we've had a lot. Firstly, the agent on our Zima obedience to the Rasul Allah says is obedience to himself. Allah said Surely those who pledge allegiance to you or Prophet Muhammad, Salah actually pledging allegiance to Allah, Allah subhanho della land is over, there's whoever breaks their pledge will only be to their own loss, it will only be to their own loss and whoever fulfills their pledge to Allah, He will grant them a great reward.

00:16:39--> 00:17:12

And he said, Let's not drop the Allahu O'Neill what we need is Yubari Onaga data shujaa Rottie for Alima mivue Blue Beam for under the key that I lay him what Essa home Photron kyriba Allah said Indeed, Allah subhanaw taala as was pleased with the believers, when they pledged allegiance to you or Muhammad Salah under the tree, he knew what was in their hearts, so he sat down serenity upon them, and rewarded them with a victory at hand.

00:17:15--> 00:18:05

That is the value of obedience, which is the essence of Islam. Today as we face a hostile world and different problems as the Muslim ummah, we seek solutions in material means we look to politics and political leadership and material means and technology for solutions. In the process. We forget that the effectiveness to the solution on comes only from Allah. It is like wiring up a whole house with the latest technology and expecting it to work without connecting it to the power source. Without the power of the transformer, the house will remain dark. The transformer in our case is taqwa and Ramadan comes to connect us to it so that our lives can be eliminated and empowered with this

00:18:05--> 00:18:56

connection. total obedience is the fundamental conditional step, total obedience out of love out of tasting and reveling in the glory and majesty of Allah and in our connection with him, which we wish he gave us through his messenger Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam that comes first. The rest, like in the case of Ibrahim Ali Salam follows, success is not difficult, it is inevitable for the good Duffy, but only for the Motoki I ask Allah subhanaw taala for His mercy and His protection from all disobedience, which is the real danger for Salah Hana Nabil Karim Ali was heavy he made the erotica Raveena 100 Is that you're on me?
