00:06:04--> 00:06:12

smalls, Phil cobalamin they ask Allah subhanaw taala to bless us all with sincerity in all that we say and all that we do.

00:06:14--> 00:06:18

In many places in the Quran, Allah subhanho wa Taala told us

00:06:19--> 00:06:22

that we are in this dunya

00:06:23--> 00:06:24

to be tested.

00:06:27--> 00:06:38

Allah the fella called moto will hire Atelier beluga COMM A you can accent One, the One who created death and life so he can test you who's the best indeed,

00:06:39--> 00:07:05

in a HELOC and I'll insert I mean not fatin unshared inevitably we have created mankind from a mixed sperm, semen so he will be tested. When an evolution nirgundi che mean and how he will do anyone oxen Meenal M word he will enforce what some rot and we will definitely test you with fear and hunger and loss of wealth and loss of dear ones and loss of crop.

00:07:06--> 00:07:14

And many other places. Allah subhanho wa Taala told us that we are here definitely to be tested.

00:07:16--> 00:07:21

My brothers and sisters, no one sitting in this room, whether it's a brother or a sister,

00:07:22--> 00:07:26

except he or she is going through something

00:07:28--> 00:07:31

through through some kind of test, either physical

00:07:33--> 00:07:37

health wise or emotional or financial.

00:07:39--> 00:07:39

Everyone

00:07:43--> 00:07:59

and the one who says whether it's a brother or a sister he said no, no, nothing is happening to me. Everything is good. I have a great job my house is perfect. Family is great. We will tell this brother or the sister this is your test.

00:08:01--> 00:08:11

Because law lot of people think that the test is only when evil with hardship Allah said so when a below can be shattered well highly fitna.

00:08:13--> 00:08:14

We will test you

00:08:15--> 00:08:16

with both

00:08:18--> 00:08:20

evil and good

00:08:23--> 00:08:38

so if you feel that there's nothing wrong my brother my sister, those none that you have these are your tests. What are you going to do with that wealth with that health, with that peace of mind that Allah bless you When are you going to use it for the pleasure of Allah or not?

00:08:39--> 00:08:47

But today's sha Allah Tala talk is about since we are definitely going through hardship.

00:08:49--> 00:08:51

Definitely we will witness hardship.

00:08:53--> 00:08:57

How to cope with this hardship and what to remember.

00:08:59--> 00:09:04

While we are going through that calamity, what to remember to ease that calamity

00:09:08--> 00:09:09

Abdullah

00:09:10--> 00:09:13

bin Abdullah Asad Elma zoomy

00:09:14--> 00:09:17

Abdullah bin Abdullah sad Matsumae

00:09:18--> 00:09:33

as a hobby and not only as a hobby, but he's the 10th person who became the Muslim 14 budget 14 odd and he died after Assad with wounds that he received in

00:09:35--> 00:09:40

when he died, his wife Hynde didn't Abby will Mejia

00:09:41--> 00:09:45

was extremely, extremely sad and upset

00:09:49--> 00:09:52

and is known to us as mo salah.

00:09:54--> 00:09:59

And Abdullah is Abu sedima Radi Allahu Anhu our God so when I was

00:10:00--> 00:10:02

Hello I'm Dr. Dre Silversides seldom came

00:10:03--> 00:10:05

to almost selama and said

00:10:08--> 00:10:13

Men in Muslim into Cebu see for your cool in

00:10:14--> 00:10:22

we're in LA he Raji Han Allah Who journey female see Betty where she left me Hi, Mina

00:10:24--> 00:10:26

Mina he told her

00:10:28--> 00:10:30

yeah masala no Muslim

00:10:33--> 00:10:47

who's afflicted by calamity and he says, I belong to Allah and to him I shall return your Allah reward me in this calamity and replace it with something better except Allah does so.

00:10:48--> 00:11:19

So Musella venerating the Hadith she said I said in Allah he were in LA he Raji own but when I came to the part your Allah has replaced me with something better. I said to myself, men have been mean Abu Salam o weatherbeaten Hara Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam who's better than Abu Salam, the First Family that migrated to the Sunnah allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, but I have to say it because it's a prescription from Rasul Allah he seldom

00:11:20--> 00:11:24

left any Allah Rasool allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:11:25--> 00:11:29

So when I said that Allah replaced me something better than this masiva

00:11:30--> 00:11:32

Allah has replaced me

00:11:33--> 00:11:38

with the best man ever created. Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa salam.

00:11:41--> 00:11:43

So the first thing we should remember

00:11:45--> 00:11:48

when we are going through a calamity, is

00:11:49--> 00:11:53

that fair? As an Tek Roshi, and

00:11:55--> 00:12:15

the first thing we should remember that you might hate something and it's the best thing that ever happened to you. This is the best thing that ever happened to me was salam ala Rasulillah, Islam is better than Abu Salam were better from Mill in Abu selama with all earthwool of ABI selama.

00:12:18--> 00:12:28

Chu, who could have ever imagined that loss of a spouse is something good. So the first thing is, the higher maybe it's good.

00:12:29--> 00:12:30

A woman

00:12:31--> 00:12:39

came to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam, and she had a child in her hand and she said yeah, rasool Allah, Allah

00:12:42--> 00:12:47

rasool Allah, please make dua for my son for in need

00:12:49--> 00:12:51

for in the defend to Thalassa

00:12:53--> 00:13:00

ya rasool Allah make dua for my son because I have buried three of them already. Color samosa, insulin deficiency Thalassa

00:13:02--> 00:13:03

you haven't burned through you already

00:13:04--> 00:13:05

said yes, yes.

00:13:09--> 00:13:10

She didn't mean

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

it was

00:13:14--> 00:13:23

actually great news. You have saved golden you have shielding yourself from with a major strong shield from the hellfire.

00:13:26--> 00:13:29

Who could have imagined that the loss of a child

00:13:31--> 00:13:36

with patience and perseverance will lead to protection from that fire.

00:13:37--> 00:13:38

Brothers and sisters

00:13:39--> 00:13:45

every once in a while we hear this brother has cancer somewhere. This sister has cancer somewhere.

00:13:50--> 00:13:51

sicknesses

00:13:56--> 00:13:56

and

00:13:57--> 00:14:01

we get extremely upset. Remember Yeah, one.

00:14:03--> 00:14:15

called our Sula. He is someone who alayhi wasallam May your Cebu Muslim meanness sobbing when I was sobbing Wanda has an in one eye. When I

00:14:16--> 00:14:18

had the show Katie you share a

00:14:19--> 00:14:21

Kaffir Allah

00:14:22--> 00:14:24

be harming Hatha Yoga would have you

00:14:25--> 00:14:29

know, Muslim afflicted by calamity. By

00:14:30--> 00:14:34

sicknesses. Grief, distress.

00:14:37--> 00:14:38

hardship,

00:14:40--> 00:14:44

discomfort, even a pick up the phone

00:14:46--> 00:14:47

except

00:14:48--> 00:14:52

Allah subhanho wa Taala will erase some of his sense.

00:14:53--> 00:14:59

So that sickness that you were diagnosed with, if you're patient if you were patient and accepted

00:15:01--> 00:15:07

you are deleting some of your sins. My brothers and sisters

00:15:08--> 00:15:14

Hadith Subhan Allah Azza wa sallam said you would do and your life here

00:15:16--> 00:15:18

in the Euro

00:15:19--> 00:15:20

a Helen Helene Bella

00:15:22--> 00:15:26

the Healthy People, the Healthy People in this dunya

00:15:28--> 00:15:35

when, in the akhira they see the reward of the people who were tested

00:15:37--> 00:16:04

when they see the reward the huge reward of the people who were tested and were patient, yeah, what color the curry that they wish that their bodies were cut in scissors in this dunya because of the huge reward they saw for the people who were testing was sicknesses and they were patient. They wish they could come back to the dunya and cut with scissors.

00:16:05--> 00:16:10

Because of the huge reward they have seen for the people of Bella for the people

00:16:11--> 00:16:12

of test.

00:16:13--> 00:16:18

So the first formula we should remember yeah one is asset and Takahashi and well

00:16:21--> 00:16:22

you might hate something

00:16:24--> 00:16:26

but you do not know

00:16:27--> 00:16:30

how much care is hidden in it.

00:16:31--> 00:16:34

For Allah the stuff you do in the hall for right

00:16:40--> 00:16:43

Smilla salatu salam ala min learn.

00:16:45--> 00:16:48

So the first thing I should remember when I'm going through difficulty the

00:16:49--> 00:16:50

second

00:16:52--> 00:16:53

my brother and my sister

00:16:55--> 00:17:04

when we are a hit by a calamity remember and compare what Allah took to what he left.

00:17:07--> 00:17:08

He took your wealth,

00:17:09--> 00:17:10

but he left you.

00:17:12--> 00:17:17

He took your health. He gave you righteous children.

00:17:20--> 00:17:24

The shaytaan makes me and you concentrate only

00:17:25--> 00:17:27

on what Allah took.

00:17:28--> 00:17:34

I lost my job for two weeks. I start becoming nervous, crying,

00:17:35--> 00:17:40

complaining and I forgot that I was working for 30 years.

00:17:41--> 00:17:43

I got sick for a month.

00:17:44--> 00:17:49

I start complaining and I forgot I was healthy for 70 years.

00:17:52--> 00:17:56

The shaytaan makes me concentrate only

00:17:58--> 00:17:59

the calamity

00:18:01--> 00:18:10

and forget that I'm drowning with blessings from Allah subhanho wa Taala so the second thing is when you compare

00:18:12--> 00:18:14

what Allah took to what he has left

00:18:15--> 00:18:19

you will find out that it's inconsiderable nothing

00:18:20--> 00:18:22

Subhanallah third

00:18:25--> 00:18:28

remember when you are tested my brother and my sister

00:18:30--> 00:18:33

that the one who's testing you is our hammer. I mean

00:18:37--> 00:18:40

the one who's testing you is Camille hacky mean?

00:18:41--> 00:18:45

He is the Most Merciful. He loves you more than your own mother.

00:18:48--> 00:18:51

And he's so wise Subhana

00:18:53--> 00:19:08

he knows what I end you can handle. He will never test me with something I cannot handle and punish me for not handling it. This is not the way dude

00:19:11--> 00:19:13

she's the one who's testing me is

00:19:14--> 00:19:18

he's the most merciful. He's the most wise.

00:19:20--> 00:19:23

When I remember that Subhan Allah

00:19:24--> 00:19:42

it will ease my pain because I know that there will be failure coming from this test. Forth here. One remember the area that we all know by heart for in the last three Yusra in the last three years throw twice,

00:19:43--> 00:19:44

right after each other.

00:19:45--> 00:19:53

Definitely after hardship there will be ease after hardship there will be is.

00:19:55--> 00:19:55

promise.

00:19:57--> 00:19:59

A promise from Allah subhanho wa Taala

00:20:01--> 00:20:10

Keep in mind, that there will be light at the end of the tunnel. Do not despair, from the Rama of Allah subhanho wa taala.

00:20:13--> 00:20:14

Remember

00:20:17--> 00:20:30

my brothers and sisters when you are being tested that Rasulullah sallallahu sallam said, either a hyperbola who call many patella feminine Ravi FLR or Reba, women Sufi fellows.

00:20:31--> 00:20:42

Remember my brother my sister that was who was I sent him said, when Allah loves people, he will test them to whosoever is patient,

00:20:44--> 00:20:57

he will gain the pleasure of Allah subhanho wa Taala and also ever complain and is not content with what Allah has decreed. He will get the Wrath of Allah subhanahu wata

00:20:58--> 00:20:59

by brothers and sisters

00:21:02--> 00:21:04

when we are going through a test remember

00:21:06--> 00:21:08

something extremely important

00:21:10--> 00:21:16

and be extremely grateful to Allah subhanho wa Taala that the test is not in the deen

00:21:21--> 00:21:24

be grateful that the test is not in the gene.

00:21:26--> 00:21:31

You got cancer, you lost a child, you lost the business hamdulillah

00:21:32--> 00:21:40

and if you died after that you could even be a Shaheed but can you imagine dying and having doubts about Allah?

00:21:42--> 00:21:48

Can you imagine dying and having doubt about the day of judgment or Rasulullah sallallahu is

00:21:49--> 00:21:56

that sick calamity that some will see but can you imagine dying and you do not pay?

00:21:57--> 00:22:05

That soon we'll see. So thank Allah that the museum is not in the deen and you will see that in the dunya

00:22:07--> 00:22:10

can be replaced but if the mafia isn't the dean,

00:22:11--> 00:22:12

Allah and Stan

00:22:18--> 00:22:27

when we are going through calamity, my brothers and sisters, remember, Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam,

00:22:29--> 00:22:52

the most beloved to Allah subhanho wa taala. Remember, he was born an orphan. He lost his mother, his grandfather, his uncle, his wife, all his children except Fatima while he's alive. This is the most beloved to Allah subhanho wa Taala forced to leave his city called names. Poet,

00:22:53--> 00:22:57

crazy magician. Who am I

00:22:59--> 00:23:08

to complain when the best man ever created was tested this much. Remember Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.

00:23:10--> 00:23:21

My brothers and sisters, when we are being tested, remember the hadith of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when he said on the Day of Judgment

00:23:23--> 00:23:27

it will be brought with the most miserable man ever.

00:23:29--> 00:23:45

most miserable man ever and he will be dipped one dip in Jannah and then he will be asked hamre eatable some cut? Have you ever seen any hardship? He would say, Oh Allah, I did not see any hardship.

00:23:46--> 00:23:50

All this misery, all the hardship that we're going through right now

00:23:51--> 00:23:56

will disappear with the one dip in Jana, along with

00:23:57--> 00:23:58

me.

00:24:00--> 00:24:02

My brothers and sisters when we are going through hardship

00:24:06--> 00:24:08

ask yourself two questions.

00:24:11--> 00:24:15

Ask yourself two questions. First question.

00:24:17--> 00:24:19

Does Allah know about it?

00:24:20--> 00:24:24

Does Allah know what I'm going through?

00:24:25--> 00:24:28

And the answer is obviously, yes, indeed.

00:24:30--> 00:24:32

Then you move to the next question.

00:24:33--> 00:24:35

Can he solve it?

00:24:37--> 00:24:39

Can he solve it?

00:24:40--> 00:24:43

And the answer again, is yes indeed.

00:24:44--> 00:24:49

100% no doubt in my heart. So why am I worried?

00:24:50--> 00:24:51

All I have to do

00:24:53--> 00:24:58

raise these hands in the middle of the night in the last third of the night.

00:25:00--> 00:25:00

Oh

00:25:03--> 00:25:05

my health, my children.

00:25:06--> 00:25:11

Yeah hola my parents. Yeah Allah Jenna. Yeah Allah.

00:25:12--> 00:25:16

If I have certainty in my heart that he knows about it, and he can solve it.

00:25:18--> 00:25:19

I remember when he said,

00:25:21--> 00:25:24

when ALLAH SubhanA wa Knutsson called Buka who I

00:25:27--> 00:25:39

remember that Allah said, it is easy for me to kill you from cancer to pay all your debts to find you the best spouse to make your children righteous.

00:25:41--> 00:25:43

To bring peace between you and your in laws.

00:25:45--> 00:26:02

Who are they? Yeah, it's very easy for me. So I get up in the last third of the night when he's asking Subhana Hellman sir Elon, is there someone asking so I can give him and I raise my hands and I talk to him instead of complaining to one another.

00:26:04--> 00:26:05

My brothers and sisters

00:26:09--> 00:26:11

if a man a very poor man

00:26:13--> 00:26:15

a very poor man was told

00:26:19--> 00:26:21

you have been selected

00:26:23--> 00:26:24

to receive

00:26:25--> 00:26:26

$10 million

00:26:30--> 00:26:32

the man was so happy I

00:26:34--> 00:26:35

was so excited.

00:26:36--> 00:26:41

When he picked up the cheque and he was very, very happy. He looked at the cheque and it says

00:26:44--> 00:26:49

the date to be cashed is January 1 2018.

00:26:55--> 00:26:56

He's very happy.

00:26:58--> 00:26:59

Doesn't matter to him.

00:27:01--> 00:27:29

Where does he live from now to January? What does he eat from now till January? What kind of car he's driving from now till January. Who's gonna bother him? Nobody's gonna bother him. I'm gonna be a millionaire if you want even though nothing has changed in his life. He still live in the same house, drive the same car go to the same job. Nothing has changed. But he's so happy. Why? Because it's full of hope.

00:27:32--> 00:27:33

00:28:07--> 00:28:19

That promise from the check. The check could dance, the guy could lie, the guy could die, he could go bankrupt. But Allah said, we are promised you an excellent promise.

00:28:21--> 00:28:23

And you will definitely find it.

00:28:26--> 00:28:34

A promise from Allah subhanho wa Taala when he said Salam Alikum sabaratnam

00:28:38--> 00:28:45

00:28:46--> 00:28:50

00:28:52--> 00:28:53

My brothers and sisters

00:28:56--> 00:28:58

beautiful Hadith I will end with sha Allah.

00:29:00--> 00:29:03

Rasool Allah say Salman said the meaning of the hadith is

00:29:05--> 00:29:25

ALLAH SubhanA wa Allah has decreed for so and so any one of us, all of us, he has decreed a certain rank. And I'm paraphrasing the hadith of Rasul Allah says, He has assigned a certain rank for each one of us. The hadith continued and said,

00:29:26--> 00:29:27

but the person

00:29:29--> 00:29:38

did not reach with his man with his deeds that Trank so Allah will test him

00:29:39--> 00:29:45

with his body, property or children, and he will endure him

00:29:46--> 00:29:55

to be patient for that test. So he could be elevated to the rank that was decreed for him or for her. Allahu Akbar.

00:29:57--> 00:29:59

So after hearing all this Yeah, one

00:30:03--> 00:30:04

Every calamity

00:30:05--> 00:30:06

that will hit us

00:30:08--> 00:30:10

after remembering all these things, it should bounce.

00:30:12--> 00:30:14

And I take by the means I do my job.

00:30:15--> 00:30:21

I obey Allah subhanho wa Taala and stay away from his prohibitions

00:30:23--> 00:30:26

and only expect good from Allah.

00:30:27--> 00:30:41
