send out another tip on hungry there have been Alameen wa salatu wa salam ala Shara film ba vermouth, Sally Muhammad Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam doesn't even consider and consider for my mother. My brothers and sisters we are looking at in our session on the shelter we were looking at to two very, very critical and important words. One is the word Ethernet and the other one is the word.
Now, he that we know means obedience to obey somebody.
And with regard to Allah and His Rasul alayhis, salaam, Allah subhanaw taala mentioned it very clearly when he said oh my UTI Allah wa rasuluh for further falls on Azima that the only one who is successful is the one who is obeyed the one who obeys Allah subhanaw taala and His Rasul Faqad the father falls under the only that person is successful, this is something that Allah subhanaw taala has mentioned very clearly in the Quran.
So, therefore insha Allah with it that you get Jana Inshallah, this is what we want, we want to get done.
But Allah subhanaw taala used one more word with regard to proselytize Allah, Allah and that is the word Shiva.
And the word diva is used in a very different context.
It was used in a context which is even higher than that, because that is something which
and I cannot explain that to you in it. So, it is used in higher context. Now, before we go to the context, let's understand what is it that it added obedience and obedience by definition means that there has to be a Hong Kong which has to be obeyed. So, if there is a rule, if there is a Hong Kong there is an order,
then the person who is the recipient of this order.
Gann is now in a position where this person can be a material, he can be somebody who is obedient, or he can be somebody who is disobedient, who will not obey that order.
To give a very simple or simplistic even example if I say to somebody, please give me a glass of water.
Now this person can do it or he can't do it. So you know, he doesn't do it. So this is the most simple way of understanding. So Allah subhanaw taala said Aki Musala Allah said establish Salah, now there is a Hong Kong and when the hokum is there, then the person either establishes Salah Alhamdulillah or he does not establish Salah, stop going Allah Allah, Allah Allah and Allah will be led. So therefore, he is in trouble. Now,
first part, second part is that unless there is a bomb, unless there is an order, it is not possible to obey. So for example, if I simply say to you,
why didn't you obey? Then you will say, Well, you know, what did you say you didn't you didn't say anything. I mean, you are you are accusing me of not obeying you, but you did not give me any hope. You have not asked me to do anything. So how can I obey.
So two things run as I met them, and firstly, for a Hohokam to be
obeyed. For for somebody to be a material for somebody to be obedient, there has to be an order number one, number two, unless there is an order, you can't do it. So, this is something to understand as far as obedience is concerned. Third thing to understand as far as obedience is concerned is that obedience can also be out of fear can also be out of compulsion.
So, if somebody is being obedient, it does not necessarily mean it need not necessarily mean anything other than that this person is
or rather, let me I don't want to sound too harsh.
One one reason why the person is obedient could be out of fear to the person is afraid of negative consequences. So therefore, this person is obedient, otherwise, this person would not perhaps not have been obedient if they could get away with it. And we have in our lives, we see plenty of examples of that, starting from ourselves. So let's not look anywhere else. There are many things we do only because we are compelled to only because otherwise, we will be punished, whether the punishment is from Allah subhanaw taala the punishment is from the world. It is out of fear that we obey
it diva on the other hand, is a very different
a very different thing. If divine means to emulate, to emulate means to copy, maybe even do it better.
But try to be as close to the origin as possible to try to be as as like the original as possible. So you could say emulate or imitate it. Me too. I use the word emulate more because imitate imitation can also be out of mockery. Some people can commit can imitate because they are joking or something. I don't mean this obviously in that sense here, because this refers to us all as a seller
So, if it isn't with the respect that is due to the Prophet salallahu Salam or even better what use is immediate
now the issue of emulation is very simple the issue of emulation is that unlike ithuba Unlike obedience emulation is not dependent on an instruction immediate emulation is not done because of fear emulation emulation is not done because of any incentive any external incentive emulation is not done because somebody has ordered emulation is a sign of love emulation is a sign of enormous respect emulation is a sign of wanting to be like the one that you are emulating. Again to use a very common example, we see this all the time this is the whole basis on which the advertising industry for example, in the especially, lifestyle industry is best, which is that the advertising
industry the lifestyle advertising industry places before us iconic role models, you can be anybody iconic role models, it can be people in the area of fashion and in the area of you know, kinds of cars, they drive clothes they wear their fashions, the the houses and whatnot whatnot, these examples these icons are put in front of us on the television and various places social media, so that we try to be like that that the whole the whole idea is this. So, you have these fitness models you have
you have you know,
fashion models, hairstyle models, you name it, right all of these people there the whole idea is to get you to emulate them now, the advertising industry of course their single minded focus is to get you to buy So end of the day emulation is not they don't care if you just look like that. The whole point is if I want to look like so and so then I have to buy their products what they buy, I must go and do something to myself and what not what not so the whole idea is to do that now think about this. If you are emulating somebody again very simple example to give if you are if you're wearing a Michael Jordan
had no cap or sneakers or if you if you if you dress like him or you walk like him or talk like him. Remember Michael Jordan doesn't even know you exist. He doesn't care two hoots right. He didn't ask you to do that. But why do you see kids doing that? Because they love them. They love them and they love his style, right? And I'm just using using one example because very, very famous and common example in America. But it could be anybody that could be anybody. Some of them some of these these role models are positively obnoxious and positively harmful, right? They are they absolutely toxic but people do way people when people emulate them people try to imitate them. Now all of these
things are signs that the people who are emulating they love that model. They love they want to be like them, they want to look like them or they want to talk walk and talk like that. Because they believe that doing so adds value to them. They think they look you know more smart, more cute more. Whatever. Right more cool. If they walk and talk and dress like those models who they want to emulate. It's a emulation is a sign of love. It's a sign of love. The person emulating doesn't even care whether the one they are emulating knows them or not. They just want to be like that person. They love that person so much that they want to be like that person now. When you do that with Rasul
Allah so Allah, Allah subhanaw taala up the ante, and North America will give us Woba ut la hora solo forgot Faza Fosun Azima, the one who obeys Allah and His Messenger, so salah, only that person will will be finally successful and we know the alumni have said the final success means that it is Jana Insha Allah we ask Allah for this.
But with respect to the love of Rasul Allah is a sunnah expressed through emulation of the promises of Remember, you're not talking here about just claiming to love they are talking about proving that claim by emulating the prophets are very similar. What does Allah say? What does Allah say is the reward of that? Allah subhanaw taala said, Colin Kuntum to hipbone Allah, wa oni you have qumola where you are for lack of Uber como la hora Rahim, Allah subhanaw taala said said to them, yeah, Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said whom say to those who claim to love Allah, calling Gundam to hipbone Allah said to those who claim to love Allah, what should they do? Emulate me emulate you
meaning for who need say to them be like me walk like me talk like me do like
Me, may be make yourself like me make yourself like Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam and then what will happen? You become Allah Allah will love you.
You will
you will be Kula for your fellow kumoko Wonderful right? And what will happen if Allah loves you the boundary condition the first thing, minimum, Allah Subhana Allah Allah will forgive all your sins and He is the most forgiving, Most Merciful fellows ratha vog is all your sins Jana is yours anyway.
But ghost and before that Allah will love that person
is Jana also has a limit right? We are in Jana. So this is a location so place it has a limit. But what if Allah loves you?
This thing has no limits. If Allah loves me, then what about my daughter?
What about my mother? What about if I'm in trouble and I say yeah, Allah help me.
What about if I need something and I see Allah give me this thing I need this thing. What about if I make dua for somebody as the honest ones who is in trouble, please help that person
who's saying this, somebody who Allah subhanho wa Taala loves and remember, the person is not making the claim. He's not saying Allah loves me. Allah is saying that how is Allah saying that Allah is saying that because this person is doing the diva have also realized this person is emulating Mohammed Sana. So Allah subhanaw taala said said to them, or Muhammad Sallallahu ala URI, he was abused. I love that if they imitate you, if they emulate you, if they if they love you, and they demonstrate this love by emulating you that Allah subhanho wa Taala will love them.
Remember Allah Martha did not say I will give them a million dollars unless I Allah will love them. If Allah loves them, then there is no limit to what they can get.
If the if the Creator of the heavens and earth loves them, then what is the heavens what is there?
Think about this, this is so so beautiful. The, the the the power of the obedience of sunnah.
Now there are five essential ativa one is to love Russell's above everyone and everything else, you know, the police officer seldom where he said your email is not complete until you love me more than you love yourself or anyone else.
Second, follow the sunlight joyfully and proudly, don't don't Don't you know, try to do the minimum number three demonstrate the sun nine o'clock.
So, not only the the covering of the head of the beard and so on, all of these are all of these are. So now these must be done the beard act incidentally some the anti diva boat, it is the Hong Kong of the library Sara as well as it is the Theva of rasa
then zart, vicar, Salah fasting sadaqa
very very important
very important understand, when you go into this area now, where
we are talking about the level processor, there are no limits
right. So, if you find yourself looking for the minimum here what is the minimum I can do then believe me there is no love or
some somebody who loves being with somebody will spend any time in you or will literally throw them out of the house and they will go on the road because they love being there so much.
So very clearly. Let us understand this. Now we know the Hadith
which is a agreed upon mocha Hakuna Hadith in Bukhari Muslim without there'll be an essay and imagine all the key tabs where as soon as salam said none of you shall become a true believer Shana we will be moving until I become dear to him, then his own son and his own father and automatically
repeat process ourselves and none of you will become a true believer, until I become dearer to him than his own son, his own father and all mankind meaning that there is a solemn is dearer to them than anyone and everyone else in their lives, including their own parents, their own spouses, their own children, everybody else. This is a part of love. Please understand this. This is something which is sometimes people get mistaken the love of rasool Allah Azza wa sallam is a part of Amen. It's a part of Islam. It's not a favor you are doing to the rebellious. It's not a discretionary thing, right? If I feel like loving the province of Islam, I will do it if I don't feel like like
So what can I do? No, no no no no. If you do not love Rasul Allah is Allah. So Allah and Allah subhanaw taala specified the and amateurism specified this the the, the measure the metadata,
how much should I love even that is basically more than anyone everything else, right. So, understand this number two
you know this is again by the Harrison Mojari where sorceress alums Omar Chaparro Dylan who came to me and he said jasola
and this is the integrity and honesty are ordered themselves out of Iran. Think about this. He comes and says, Yes, well, allah sallallahu sallam, you are dear to me that everything except myself.
As soon as I was upset by the one in whose life in whose hand is my life, I must tell by the one in whose hand is my life. Your Eman will not be complete, until I become dearer to you than your own self.
Now see the integrity of America. He could have said, Oh, no, no, of course that's what I meant here, sir.
No, not one of those.
He went away.
And then after some time, he came back.
And he said, Yasser Allah, you are now dear to me. Even then, my own self and Russell Russell sallam said, and
he said now yo, now Yama, the MA D Xena said that this now Yeah, Omar can mean two things. One is Ross Ross Ross Ross saying only now your Eman is complete.
Or he can say now your image is complete.
Right. So either is either saying it took you this long to understand this or he saying? Yes Now your image is complete.
So the level rasa Salaam is not a discretionary thing this Allah subhanaw taala has decreed and remember I'm saying Allah subhanaw taala the
the words of Rasul Allah is Allah Sanlam.
The revelation of Allah subhanaw taala. As we know, there are two forms of revelation one is the Quran, which is the Kitab of Allah subhanaw taala. And the second one is the head this is a cylinder head these are here, which are
also a revelation which is called the way he ran with law, though he did not not recite it in Salah, but it's also a revelation. So please understand that.
Then, we also have the Quran itself, where Allah subhanaw taala very clearly mentioned, the position of the love of the NABI SallAllahu Isa, in sort of Dawa, the famous Ayat we're almost Mantella Zed
and that's mountain actually counted out eight things. And last round that I said called say, call in gara OCO webinar what was word you call Why shoot
what am word liftoff? What the Jonathan duck Shona what the Jonathan duck Shona casada my sag Luthor Donna
so it thinks right?
Coding Kara about say to them if your parents well I'm gonna go with children and your children why Huanchaco and your brothers meaning brothers and sisters was why a double your your wife's meaning spouses as
well as Shirato meaning your whole families extended families tribes whatever. And then while I'm while Nathan off to
the one that you like to accumulate what the Jonathan doc Shona cassava and your trade in which you fear a decline, while masala keynoter Donna, and your houses which you build a new love
have by La come if you love them, if these are more beloved to you are have by Les Coleman Allah He was also he was he had infeasibility
three things if these are more beloved to you than Allah. If the if these are more beloved to you then is a salon a salon. If these are more beloved to you then then spending in the path of Allah struggling the path of Allah GEOG visibile Fatah, Rob Basu Yachty Allahu be angry. Allah who lay dill Komal ferocity and I said if that is the case, then get out go away
and wait for the punishment of Allah subhanaw taala wait for the other vamos and Allah matter of further clarified so Allah who lie had little Komal Vaseline ALLAH SubhanA wa
will not guide rebellious people.
Now think about is how serious this is Allah subhanaw taala
is any rating eight things?
Allah is not me numerating Eight haram things. Allah subhanaw taala is a numerating eight Halal things and some of those things are
things in which about which Allah subhanaw taala and other places in the Quran Allah actually emphasized that take for example will be relevant today to be dutiful and obedient to your parents.
How many different places have as almost Rantala mentioned this in the Quran three four different places.
right these are the local managers so these are temporary places Allah subhanaw taala has mentioned the importance of obedience to parents being kind to parents lower the window being of kindness, don't be arrogant with them, obey them everything except unless they ask you or or try to compel you to come and check their total complete obedience to parents. The duty the the rights of parents on children are the number one Superbrands after the rights of others rather, and that comes the right to bear. Same parents Alassane Ouattara saying if you love them more than you love Allah and if you love them more than you love rasool Allah Azza wa sallam,
then this is a problem for you.
Right, children, Allah subhanaw taala mentioned children, they're 30 and so on and so forth. But you love those children more than you love Allah and His wa salam.
You are a problem Harold risk
to earn halaal risk is a hamdulillah it is something which is a form of weather.
But if you love that more than you love Allah and
you got a problem now, and Allah subhanaw taala didn't leave it there and say
I have by Lumina live or SULI
if you love it, more than you love Allah and Islam, because anybody can claim it. I can say oh, no, no, no, no, I love Allah subhanho wa Taala more than I love anybody as I love rasa sell more than I love anybody I can I can claim this from the rooftops
what is the evidence unlacing show the evidence and the evidence is be prepared to struggle in the path of Allah subhanaw taala if you love Allah, and you love the Ibiza Rozella then demonstrate that by obedience, demonstrate that by the by the by by emulation.
demonstrate that by living your life the way around so Allah is seldom taught us to live our lives, not just talk about it, demonstrates show it
and Allah subhanaw taala even didn't leave it there he said if you do not do that,
then go and wait for the punishment of Allah.
Think about how serious this is.
You're not playing any games yet.
Right? You're not playing against think about our citizens.
Plus rather saying if you don't do this
you are going to be in serious trouble.
And the trouble is oh series Allah smart Allah says if you don't love Allah and he we do not love is Robbie la Salam, if you are not prepared to show evidence of that, then go we don't I don't even need you. And that doesn't need us anyway.
But being sent away
is rejection by Allah Subhana Allah and Allah saying, it will not be just rejection you will be punished. Go and wait for the punishment meaning this punishment is sure to come
through on the one hand,
the obedience to Allah Maratha will get millions to Allah Swatara and is the visa loss and we'll get a general emulation of the prophets Allah reseller a developer officer Salah will get us the love of Allah.
And on the other hand, not loving Rasul Allah is Allah salah, not emulating him
not bolding our lives our character on the beautiful character and life also Salah
will get us the Hellfire
how much clearer can this get?
Think about that.
How much clearer can this get?
Our sisters really seriously think about this and say that Allah subhanaw taala gave us this beautiful religion.
A lot of our data centers into this world
with a teacher. Allah sent us with a book and he sent us with a teacher. He sent us with a teacher so that we can learn from the teacher and become teachers to others and teach this to others.
Allah Samantha did not send us into this world to adjust ourselves to a haram system.
As JD Krishna Murthy, Gita, Krishna Murthy, as he said, very famous philosopher
theosophist
he said it is not the sign.
It's not a sign of good health
to be profoundly adjusted to a sick society
and that's worth thinking about.
It's not a sign of good health.
That's what we're doing.
We have a very, very sick society.
We are literally terminally ill.
As a species, we are at the point of going into self, self,
you know, self driven extinction.
We are destroying this, this this planet, we are destroying ourselves.
We are materially on in the external world we are destroying ourselves and internally in our o'clock in our hearts, in our in the purity of our souls, we are destroying ourselves even more.
If Allah subhanho data, may Allah protect us, I tell you, I thank Allah so much that Allah subhanaw taala kept some things hidden. Right?
If Allah subhanaw taala had allowed the sickness of our souls to be seen on our faces,
we would have been so incredibly ugly that we would have scared the daylights out of ourselves. If you look in the mirror, you would have scared you would have been we would have looked like monsters because of Allah subhanho data, allowing the sickness of our hearts to be manifested in our faces. Allah did not do that.
Unless Mandela hid this
otherwise, what do you call a heart in which there is no love of Bahamas or send them what you call a call a heart in which there is no love for Allah subhanaw taala What do you call a heart which is constantly pulled and attracted towards sin and towards disobedience of Allah subhanaw taala
very sick, a heart full of jealousy of cruelty of hatred, of arrogance.
Somebody else has a bus route to Lolly one of my Savannah asked was ran into to enable me to see him and to make salaam to him when I went in gentlemen Shanna.
Somebody asked celibacy Raja lazy. Why are you how is it that you are not bothered about anybody's opinions?
Hasn't been around to listen, I was born alone.
He said I stand before Allah subhanaw taala in Salah alone.
He said When I die, I will die alone.
When I go into my
cupboard, into my into my grave, I will go alone.
When I'm resurrected, I'll be resurrected alone.
And when I stand before Allah subhanaw taala to answer him, I will stand alone. He said what do I have to do with people?
What do I have to do? Where do people come into this?
Every single thing in my life? I have to do alone. There's nobody there.
When I was born, there is nobody there when I die when I go into my cup when I'm dying when my my soul is being extracted a molecule mug nobody. I can be surrounded by people but nobody will be with me.
When I'm put into my grave, I will go alone.
When I'm questioned in my grave, I will go alone. There is nobody there to answer those questions for me.
You can be people can be surrounding my grave nothing will ever I will be answering my questions alone.
Then when I'm resurrected on the Day of Judgment, I will be alone. I will be in the home of the of the of the hazard, but I will be alone. When I started before Allah I will be alone. He said what do I have two people
around sisters today one of the biggest curses that we have is social media is Facebook is Instagram is all of these things
because they completely divert and distract our attention from what is essential.
And take it away into things which have really no meaning.
measure all the comments and this and that that you get from
completely inconsequential things, which has no meaning no Sabbath.
was also said this about militancy. How does it matter? How does it matter
focus on
obedience to Allah subhanho wa Taala to be federalized and focus on emulating sources and out of his out our love for sources.
Not only will we get done Inshallah, not only will we get the love of Allah subhana Inshallah, but our lives this dunya them say itself will become very good
because almost no data will put the love of the individual of that individual, the one who loves him and the one who love the sources Allah, Allah will put his love into the hearts of other people.
And you will suddenly find yourself becoming the most beloved the most respected person in the world and you will be wondering what happened to me nothing happened to you because of the love of Rasulullah Salaam in your heart, because of the love of Allah subhanaw taala and you are
when the lamp is lighted the whole room gets lighted
but that lamp will be lighted only when the fire of the of the love of Allah is very bonded.
As color to fill your hearts with the love of Allah subhanaw taala and the love of Russell license
to enable you to live like that to die like that to be resurrected like that to start before Allah subhana wa Tada and like that to meet a source and celebrate
some of the anatomy you carry while he was heavier named after our Eco Morocco
