Well that catered for in

00:00:04--> 00:00:04

the

00:00:06--> 00:00:16

federal meeting. Well now, I'm going to login now in

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

mode.

00:00:24--> 00:01:07

Salam Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh smell level hamdu lillah wa salatu salam ala Rasulillah Allahumma lymphoma and founder and founder of Yuma limped Anna Ozuna ailment. Amara, I mean, we ask Allah azza wa jal teach us what benefit us benefit is from what you told us and increase us in knowledge. Me and Brian, I mean, my dear beloved, respected brothers and sisters, ask Allah subhanaw taala to protect us all from any harm. So having a lot of time in In our previous episode, we mentioned the symptoms How do I know that my Eman is weak? How do I know that my Eman is weak? And today insha Allah to Allah. We will mention some of the reasons some of the causes of weak Iman and

00:01:07--> 00:01:40

absolutely the main goal of this episode is to mention the cure to mention the cure of the weakness of Eman. So as we all know, in our athletes that as the people that had a tsunami Jamar, we all know that our Eman goes up and down. The Eman goes up and down. It goes up with more acts of worship and it goes down with her more sins. So what are the causes of

00:01:41--> 00:01:44

weakness of Eman reasons, number one

00:01:46--> 00:02:23

ignorance of the attributes of Allah subhanaw taala not knowing not understanding the names and the attributes of Allah subhanaw taala I'll give you an example. One of the attributes of Allah is a rose up he is the one who provides when I do not know when I do not understand what does a reserve mean. And when I do not know that, my risk my provision has been already decreed to me when I was four months in my mother's womb, I go and I seek my provision from haram means

00:02:25--> 00:03:22

and because of my ignorance of the name of the razack I am seeking the income through haram means if I understand what does Arzak mean, I know that my risk is has been already decreed. It all depends on me how to earn it, but that this will not change SubhanAllah. Similarly, not knowing that ALLAH SubhanA wa Tala Al Bashir, not knowing what is the Al Bashir mean? He the old seeing it will make me think that if I look at haram, if I watch haram, if I do any kind of acts of disobedience, any kind of sins, that Allah subhanaw taala is not watching me. And that will cause of course the weakness of faith. So number one, being ignorant about the attributes of Allah subhanaw taala. Makes the Eman so

00:03:22--> 00:03:31

weak. Second, obviously committing a lot of sins, the more sins we commit, the more

00:03:32--> 00:03:33

stains

00:03:34--> 00:04:02

are on the heart or soul as I said them told us that the heart every time you commit a sin, a black spot goes in the heart and the Eman is from the heart. Right the Eman is in the heart. So the more I commit sins, the darker this This heart is the harder it is for this heart to accept the guidance and that would lead to the weakness of iman. Third,

00:04:03--> 00:04:49

failing to do acts of worship, failing to pray on time or failing to pray at all. Some people don't even pray and they wonder why their Eman is weak. They do not pray they do not have any relationship with the Quran. They do not fast they do not give any kind of charity the further I am from committing or my duties to Allah subhanaw taala the weaker is my faith. Fourth, distancing ourself from the massage from the Halacha of Elam from the circles of studies studying the Quran and studying the the our deen the more I stay away from this kind of environment. The weaker is my my Amen.

00:04:51--> 00:04:59

When I go and I listen to a lecture when I listen to football, I might hear something that will increase my Eman because all these lectures all these

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

stalks they are like a fuel they are there. They boost my Eman, Eman boosters SubhanAllah. So when I'm away from them, obviously the Eman is weaker.

00:05:14--> 00:05:53

Fifth, excessive eating and drinking and sleeping and staying up at night. All these lead to the weakness of iman excessive laughter Rasulullah sallallahu sallam, he said that catheter back to me to curb an excessive laughter laughter is good, moderately. But when we make all our life is mockery and laughing and joking, that will kill the heart and when the heart is dead, it leads to the weakness of iman. And finally, one of the main reasons for

00:05:54--> 00:05:59

weakness of Eman is the love the addiction to dunya.

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

All the concerns is dunya dunya dunya. There's nothing except dunya in the person's heart. When the when the dunya occupies the heart, the Eman gets out of the heart Subhanallah so these are some of the reasons that would lead the person to have weakness of faith. Let's get to the most important part. How can I feel a shift I heard the symptoms and I feel like from the symptoms you mentioned, I am weak in my faith. I want to increase my Eman. What should I do? sha Allah Allah Allah we will mention seven ways to increase our iman

00:06:39--> 00:07:36

first and foremost reading and pondering upon the Quran. Not only just reading, reading with the bull with pondering and contemplating upon the ayat of the Quran, Allah subhanaw taala told us in Surah Tober way then on zealot Surah, feminine Morocco are you considered to have the Eman when a surah is revealed? The Sahaba asked each other who among you this surah increased him in Eman. So that means when we read the sutras when we understand the sutras when we apply those ideas that are revealed, it will increase our iman Allah subhanaw taala told us Kitab and Enza Lau la que muda rock this book yeah Muhammad Sallallahu sallam, we have revealed it to you and we have made it full of

00:07:36--> 00:07:42

Baraka full of Baraka. What should we do that your Allah Leah Deb baru

00:07:43--> 00:07:45

so they can ponder upon the

00:07:47--> 00:08:00

the listening, the reading the memorizing these are all tools to get to the goal why the Quran was revealed, and that is the pondering upon the Quran. let's ponder upon one idea, just one Subhanallah surah

00:08:03--> 00:08:04

number 59.

00:08:06--> 00:08:29

Allah subhanaw taala set in the closest meaning, and with him are the keys of the vibe of the unseen, with Allah belongs the keys of the unseen, none knows them, but him Subhanallah no one knows the Unseen except Allah subhanaw taala. And he knows whatever there is on the earth or in the sea.

00:08:30--> 00:08:44

Not a leaf falls, but he knows it. Allahu Akbar, there is nothing green in the darkness of the earth, nor anything fresh or dry. But it's written in a clear record.

00:08:45--> 00:09:17

Not a leaf like you see, when I pondered upon this idea that Allah knows the Unseen. That means when I'm making dua, I am asking the one who knows what's going to happen, that me that gives me so much comfort that he will give me if it's good for me, because he knows what's happening next year, next 200 years, next morning. Allah knows the Unseen and he's the only one who knows the Unseen. And not only that, when I feel that Allah subhanaw taala has knowledge knows about every leaf when it falls, I feel so much

00:09:18--> 00:10:00

humbleness, and so much honor that Allah gave me the permission and made me from the people who worship Him and worship Him alone. So number one pondering my brother, my sister, let's really take these episodes very serious. I really want to increase my Eman. Let's take her as I from now on. I'm going to make a schedule for myself. I will dedicate 10 minutes a day, half an hour a day, whatever you can handle two pages a day two is to ponder upon, but to leave the whole day without touching the Quran without pondering upon the Quran. That's a major, major reason for the weakness of faith and to read the Quran with Eman and to dedicate I'm not going

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

Don't sleep tonight until I read that part that I promised myself. I'm going to read. I'm not going to sleep tonight until I understand one area, one area Subhanallah so please put that on your schedule so you can feel that we are benefiting from this episode number one.

00:10:19--> 00:10:55

Read reading and pondering upon the Quran. Number two, Allah He, this is number two is the one that really personally changed my life when I become consistent in my salad, consistency in the salon. being so concerned always that every salon has to be on time, on time, and to try during the salon to have as much hair sure as possible to concentrate as much as I can to read slowly

00:10:56--> 00:11:40

to ponder upon the Fatiha to praise Allah with humility Subhan Allah Vim, concentrating and being consistent on my salad will definitely increase my faith I start looking forward for the next salon. So the next cure is to be consistent on the salon. Third, remembering ALLAH SubhanA wa Tada my brother, my sister, if you're feeling weakness of faith, make a schedule. Tell yourself now that's it every single day, dedicate 1520 minutes, half an hour, whatever you can handle. I am going to sit down and remember Allah Subhan Allah what hamdulillah Well, number one law Akbar

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

Allahu la sharika the whole

00:11:45--> 00:12:38

other cliche in Korea, the whole La Quwata illa la isla Hey Lancaster Subhanak in the container volume in any form of vicar, remembering Allah subhanahu wa taala will increase the Eman it is a cure for the weakness of iman. Why? Because the remembrance of Allah will bring the heart will bring the heart to rest and be at peace like Allah subhanaw taala said Allah basically lay that globe verily in the remembrance of Allah subhanho wa Taala the hearts find the rest and when the heart is resting, the Eman will increase because the Eman the source of Eman is from from the heart. Number four performing a variety of good deeds. I am walking to the masjid, right and I'm remembering Allah

00:12:38--> 00:13:24

subhanaw taala I get to the masjid I say salaam to my brothers. I pray in Jamaica after I finish I sit down I remember Allah subhanho wa Taala after we finish we asked each other let's go visit so and so because he's sick let's go and help her brother so and so he's moving all the time Subhan Allah from wandering that to another Ibadah even my when I go to work, I changed my intention, I make my intention, I am going to work during work, I am going to lower my gaze, I am going to be there on time, I'm going to give everything that I promised my my employee to give all that time during work during the job will become a bad I am working to provide for my family because I am

00:13:25--> 00:13:35

responsible for them all that time will become a bed from one bed to another performing a lot of good deeds that will increase the

00:13:36--> 00:13:57

the imam in the heart by increasing the good deeds and obedience one nears himself from Allah subhanho wa Taala and purifies himself, and then they are less likely to fall into the desires and the worldly pleasures which take them or decrease the email. Number five,

00:13:59--> 00:14:14

remembering death and fear of a good fear of a bad and remembering death and fear of an evil. And if I constantly remember death Subhanallah that means I will be

00:14:16--> 00:14:59

encouraging myself to do a lot of API that and the more API that I do. The higher is my Eman? I might die any second. This could be my last episode. This could be the last thing that you're watching. Today's the whole replayed, could have been my last summit. I have to remember that the angel of death is just waiting for the order from Allah to take my soul. So when I constantly remember death, and I always fear I don't want to be I don't want to die on a bad on a bad omen because as soon as I saw them said Amell bahawa team actions are judged by the way they end. So I don't want to end in a bed and that will destroy my akhira so that will increase my

00:15:00--> 00:15:06

Amen and it will increase by the possibility of doing good good deeds Subhanallah so

00:15:07--> 00:15:13

remembrance of death, as follows SLM said, Remember often the destroyer of pleasure

00:15:14--> 00:15:59

axiom in victory had me like that. Remember a lot the destroyer of pleasures SubhanAllah. So the more we remember that that will increase us to do more before the time is up. Number six my brothers and sisters to increase our Eman surround yourself with righteous people will lie he this makes a huge difference. Huge difference. Surround yourself by brothers that will always advise you to let's go to the masjid let's hear this let's do that what you're doing is wrong. But why you're not praying. My sister surround yourself by sisters who remind you of Allah when they see you do wrong. They they remind you immediately to stop and when they see you doing something good. They take your

00:15:59--> 00:16:48

hand and they assist you and they go with you. And they encourage you and they praise you Subhan Allah, Allah, Allah Allah Dini Fellini, the person is on the dean of his best friend. So see who are your friends? They are the ones Subhanallah it depends every person's Eman depends on who he surrounds himself with who she surrounds herself with. The friends have a major influence on our our Eman, our M L or a Baghdad so surround yourself and make sure your your family your children are surrounded by righteous company that will increase their email. Finally, number seven, my brothers and sisters Rasul allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said in the Hadith Verily, the faith of one of

00:16:48--> 00:17:00

you will wear out within him just as a shirt becomes worn out. So ask Allah to renew the faith in your hearts.

00:17:01--> 00:17:07

ask Allah to renew the faith in your hearts. So the last point

00:17:09--> 00:17:57

ask Allah make dua to Allah Allah Houma Jed diddle amen if your call be ya allah revive the Eman in my heart ya allah I'm going through hardships your Allah my email is getting weaker. Yeah Allah I beg you, please yeah Allah increase my email, ask Allah azza wa jal, the owner of the hearts to increase the Eman and our hearts and ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala if he sees you, my brother, my sister that are sincere, he will increase your iman, I ask Allah azza wa jal with the best of his name is to increase all our iman to increase his own Iman and to bring us closer to him and make it may Allah subhanaw taala make our last man our last DS our best deeds and our last words La Ilaha illa
