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

So we're still talking about the matters of

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

the heart, a'mal al-quloob.

00:00:05 --> 00:00:07

And I keep repeating in the beginning of

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

every class that the a'mal of the quloob

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

are extremely important and they are more important

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

than the actual a'mal.

00:00:16 --> 00:00:19

And the more the qalb is involved in

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

the a'mal, the more the a'mal is rewarding,

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

right?

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

Today's a'mal of the qalb is al-sabr,

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

sabr.

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

Sabr is a'mal of the qalb, patience.

00:00:37 --> 00:00:43

Patience, in the language, it means to hold

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

back and restrain yourself.

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

In the shara, in the language, to restrain

00:00:52 --> 00:00:52

yourself.

00:00:54 --> 00:00:56

Shara'an, Islamically, what does patience mean?

00:00:57 --> 00:01:01

Patience is the restraint of the soul from

00:01:01 --> 00:01:05

being impatient and to restrain the tongue from

00:01:05 --> 00:01:09

complaining and to restrain the limbs from sinning.

00:01:11 --> 00:01:14

To restrain the soul from showing impatience, to

00:01:14 --> 00:01:17

restrain the tongue from complaining.

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

Why?

00:01:18 --> 00:01:19

I don't deserve this.

00:01:21 --> 00:01:25

And to restrain the limbs from sinning.

00:01:25 --> 00:01:30

How does the limbs sin when they lose

00:01:30 --> 00:01:30

patience?

00:01:32 --> 00:01:33

Right?

00:01:33 --> 00:01:34

We've seen it in our countries a lot,

00:01:35 --> 00:01:35

unfortunately.

00:01:36 --> 00:01:37

It's called an Arabic niyah.

00:01:38 --> 00:01:40

They start hitting themselves.

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

Or it could be any kind of, because

00:01:44 --> 00:01:46

we're gonna see there are different kinds of

00:01:46 --> 00:01:46

patience.

00:01:46 --> 00:01:49

So they might do something with their limbs

00:01:49 --> 00:01:53

that is, could not, they could not be

00:01:53 --> 00:01:58

patient on ibadah, or a patient on, from

00:01:58 --> 00:02:00

disobeying Allah.

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

So they did something with their limbs and

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

they will not be able, they were not

00:02:04 --> 00:02:05

able to be patient.

00:02:06 --> 00:02:09

Is it a must upon every Muslim?

00:02:10 --> 00:02:12

Taba'un, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said,

00:02:12 --> 00:02:18

Ya ayyuhal ladheena aamanu sbiru wa saabiru wa

00:02:18 --> 00:02:24

raabitu wa attaqullaha la'allakum tuflihun.

00:02:24 --> 00:02:27

Anytime we see a verb after ya ayyuhal

00:02:27 --> 00:02:31

ladheena aamanu, it means it is an order.

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34

Here, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala said, last

00:02:34 --> 00:02:37

ayah in surah Ali Imran.

00:02:37 --> 00:02:39

Ya ayyuhal ladheena aamanu.

00:02:39 --> 00:02:40

Yes, Ya Allah.

00:02:40 --> 00:02:41

Sama'an wa ta'a.

00:02:41 --> 00:02:42

We listen and we obey.

00:02:43 --> 00:02:43

Order me.

00:02:44 --> 00:02:49

Sbiru wa saabiru wa raabitu wa attaqullaha la

00:02:49 --> 00:02:50

'allakum tuflihun.

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

So it's an order from Allah subhanahu wa

00:02:54 --> 00:02:54

ta'ala.

00:02:55 --> 00:03:01

Now, patience is divided, three kinds of patience.

00:03:01 --> 00:03:04

There are three kinds of patience.

00:03:05 --> 00:03:07

Patience upon the ibadah.

00:03:09 --> 00:03:13

Patience to stay away from the disobedience of

00:03:13 --> 00:03:16

Allah and the patience on the qadr of

00:03:16 --> 00:03:16

Allah.

00:03:16 --> 00:03:19

The patience on the calamities and the hardships.

00:03:20 --> 00:03:21

Let's take them quickly one by one.

00:03:22 --> 00:03:24

First, patience upon the ibadah.

00:03:26 --> 00:03:28

Patience upon performing an act of worship.

00:03:30 --> 00:03:33

Getting up to come to fajr needs patience.

00:03:35 --> 00:03:37

Fasting in the month of Ramadan when it's

00:03:37 --> 00:03:40

June and July and August needs patience.

00:03:40 --> 00:03:41

It's ibadah.

00:03:41 --> 00:03:45

Hajj, literally, if you want to put one

00:03:45 --> 00:03:47

word for hajj, it's patience.

00:03:48 --> 00:03:51

Whomever went to hajj, before you left and

00:03:51 --> 00:03:52

you asked somebody to give you an advice,

00:03:53 --> 00:03:54

all of them, they said one word, be

00:03:54 --> 00:03:55

patient.

00:03:57 --> 00:03:59

Hajj needs ibadah, hajj needs patience.

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

Even zakat, when I'm giving my money, I

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

worked so hard for it and then you're

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

telling me to give it to this guy,

00:04:05 --> 00:04:06

I don't know who he is, that needs

00:04:06 --> 00:04:07

patience.

00:04:07 --> 00:04:09

To get up and perform tahajjud needs patience.

00:04:10 --> 00:04:12

To sit down like our brothers and young

00:04:12 --> 00:04:14

sons and daughters upstairs, wallahi, such a beautiful

00:04:14 --> 00:04:15

scene every day.

00:04:15 --> 00:04:18

To sit down and memorize the Quran from

00:04:18 --> 00:04:20

eight to two every single day, that needs

00:04:20 --> 00:04:21

a lot of patience.

00:04:22 --> 00:04:28

To be, to respect and honor your parents

00:04:28 --> 00:04:30

when they become very old and they become

00:04:30 --> 00:04:33

very demanding and they become sick, that needs

00:04:33 --> 00:04:35

a lot of patience because that by itself

00:04:35 --> 00:04:36

is an act of worship.

00:04:37 --> 00:04:38

Bir al-walidayn, that needs patience.

00:04:39 --> 00:04:41

So the first kind of patience is the

00:04:41 --> 00:04:43

patience to perform an act of worship.

00:04:44 --> 00:04:45

That needs patience.

00:04:48 --> 00:04:52

And specifically, I want to say it's a

00:04:52 --> 00:04:57

side note, it's still related to the topic.

00:04:58 --> 00:05:01

Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, listen carefully, ya

00:05:01 --> 00:05:01

Akhwan.

00:05:02 --> 00:05:08

When it came to our spouses and to

00:05:08 --> 00:05:12

our children, what did he say in surah

00:05:12 --> 00:05:16

Taha, last page, third ayah from the bottom?

00:05:19 --> 00:05:23

وَأْمُرْ أَهْلَكَ What does ahlaka means?

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25

It means your family.

00:05:25 --> 00:05:28

Family includes wife and children.

00:05:29 --> 00:05:34

وَأْمُرْ أَهْلَكَ بِالصَّلَاةِ Command.

00:05:35 --> 00:05:38

وَأْمُرْ is not a habibi, baba.

00:05:39 --> 00:05:40

If you would like to pray, pray.

00:05:40 --> 00:05:41

If you don't want to pray, no problem.

00:05:41 --> 00:05:42

No, no, no.

00:05:43 --> 00:05:46

وَأْمُرْ Command your family to pray.

00:05:47 --> 00:05:50

وَأْمُرْ أَهْلَكَ بِالصَّلَاةِ And then what did he

00:05:50 --> 00:05:50

say?

00:05:51 --> 00:06:00

سُبْحَانَهُ وَصْبِرْ عَلَيْهَا وَصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَا We all know

00:06:00 --> 00:06:02

that the verb is wasbir.

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

How come here there's a taa added to

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

the verb?

00:06:08 --> 00:06:10

And we all know there's a formula in

00:06:10 --> 00:06:11

the Arabic language.

00:06:12 --> 00:06:18

زِيَادَةِ المَعْنَةِ زِيَادَةِ المَبْنَةِ means زِيَادَةِ المَعْنَةِ When

00:06:18 --> 00:06:22

the مَبْنَة, when the format of the verb,

00:06:22 --> 00:06:23

you add a word to it, you add

00:06:23 --> 00:06:26

a letter to it, that means it's more

00:06:26 --> 00:06:27

emphasis on that verb.

00:06:28 --> 00:06:30

Because the verb naturally is wasbir.

00:06:30 --> 00:06:32

Here, Allah added the taa.

00:06:33 --> 00:06:38

وَصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَا يعني have extra patience on your

00:06:38 --> 00:06:40

family when it comes to salat.

00:06:43 --> 00:06:45

How many of us, don't raise your hand,

00:06:46 --> 00:06:47

we told our kids, if you don't pray,

00:06:47 --> 00:06:48

you're going to *.

00:06:52 --> 00:06:53

This is not sabr.

00:06:53 --> 00:06:56

You see your kid sometimes 8, 9, he's

00:06:56 --> 00:06:58

not responsible yet, we're supposed to train them

00:06:58 --> 00:06:59

at that time.

00:06:59 --> 00:07:01

You see the father beating him at 8,

00:07:02 --> 00:07:03

because he did not...

00:07:03 --> 00:07:05

يا أخي, because he's dancing in the salat.

00:07:05 --> 00:07:07

Who among us did not dance when they

00:07:07 --> 00:07:09

were 7 and 8 and moved so many

00:07:09 --> 00:07:09

times?

00:07:10 --> 00:07:12

وَصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَا Be patient, يا أخي.

00:07:12 --> 00:07:14

الحمد لله that your son is standing next

00:07:14 --> 00:07:15

to you and praying.

00:07:15 --> 00:07:16

Be patient.

00:07:16 --> 00:07:17

Take it easy.

00:07:17 --> 00:07:21

وَصْطَبِرْ عَلَيْهَا وَصْطَبِرْ Extra patience.

00:07:22 --> 00:07:24

Extra patience when it comes to teaching our

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26

family the salat.

00:07:28 --> 00:07:33

Now, this kind of patience, it is also

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

the first patience, is the patience to perform

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

ibadah.

00:07:37 --> 00:07:39

That patience is also divided into three.

00:07:40 --> 00:07:45

Patience before the ibadah, patience during the ibadah,

00:07:45 --> 00:07:47

and patience after the ibadah.

00:07:48 --> 00:07:50

So the first one is divided into three.

00:07:50 --> 00:07:55

Before the ibadah, to purify my intention, that

00:07:55 --> 00:07:57

this salat is only for the sake of

00:07:57 --> 00:07:57

Allah.

00:07:57 --> 00:07:59

I did not come to the masjid so

00:07:59 --> 00:08:00

the people can see me and this and

00:08:00 --> 00:08:02

that, and mashallah and...

00:08:02 --> 00:08:02

No, no, no.

00:08:04 --> 00:08:06

I came only for the sake of Allah.

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

This is before the ibadah.

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

During the ibadah, the patience is...

00:08:11 --> 00:08:13

How many of us right now got distracted

00:08:13 --> 00:08:16

during the salat, even though the sheikh recited

00:08:16 --> 00:08:18

ayat that shakes mountains.

00:08:21 --> 00:08:23

He spoke about the shuhada in Ali Umran,

00:08:24 --> 00:08:26

when Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala don't call

00:08:26 --> 00:08:27

them shuhada.

00:08:27 --> 00:08:30

They are alive with Allah azza wa jal.

00:08:32 --> 00:08:37

So, patience during the ibadah to find khushu'

00:08:37 --> 00:08:38

for example in salat.

00:08:39 --> 00:08:41

I want to be patient and try to

00:08:42 --> 00:08:44

fight all these distractions.

00:08:44 --> 00:08:45

That needs patience.

00:08:45 --> 00:08:47

Otherwise the easy thing is, Allahu Akbar.

00:08:49 --> 00:08:50

I can't wait to go home.

00:08:51 --> 00:08:52

Yalla ya sheikh, yalla ya sheikh.

00:08:52 --> 00:08:54

This doesn't need patience.

00:08:54 --> 00:08:55

This is automatic.

00:08:55 --> 00:08:56

This is by default.

00:08:56 --> 00:08:58

Patience is to fight this.

00:08:59 --> 00:08:59

Right?

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

And what is the...

00:09:00 --> 00:09:01

Okay, let me ask you.

00:09:01 --> 00:09:03

What is the patience after the ibadah?

00:09:07 --> 00:09:07

Hmm?

00:09:10 --> 00:09:11

No, no.

00:09:11 --> 00:09:13

Patience before, intention and all that.

00:09:13 --> 00:09:16

Patience during, as we gave example, salat, khushu

00:09:16 --> 00:09:16

'a.

00:09:16 --> 00:09:19

Patience after...

00:09:20 --> 00:09:20

Huh?

00:09:23 --> 00:09:25

Excellent, not to brag about it.

00:09:26 --> 00:09:27

You know who was the big donor?

00:09:29 --> 00:09:30

You're looking at him.

00:09:31 --> 00:09:32

You know?

00:09:32 --> 00:09:35

After that, that's...

00:09:35 --> 00:09:36

Everybody wants to be praised.

00:09:37 --> 00:09:39

And you're trying to be patient not to

00:09:39 --> 00:09:40

anybody to know that you're the one who

00:09:40 --> 00:09:42

donated that much.

00:09:42 --> 00:09:43

That needs patience.

00:09:44 --> 00:09:46

Or, you know, alhamdulillah, Allah blessed us with

00:09:46 --> 00:09:49

a salat that was full of khushu'a.

00:09:49 --> 00:09:50

Khalas, I keep it to myself and I

00:09:50 --> 00:09:53

ask Allah to give me more and I

00:09:53 --> 00:09:53

be grateful.

00:09:53 --> 00:09:56

I don't go and boast about it or

00:09:56 --> 00:09:57

any kind of ibadah.

00:09:58 --> 00:09:58

Okay?

00:09:58 --> 00:10:00

So, this is the first patience.

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

Patience to perform the ibadah.

00:10:03 --> 00:10:06

The second patience is the patience to stay

00:10:06 --> 00:10:10

away from sins.

00:10:10 --> 00:10:11

That needs patience also.

00:10:12 --> 00:10:15

Subhanallahulahi, I always, every time I mention this,

00:10:15 --> 00:10:19

I remember our sons and daughters which are

00:10:19 --> 00:10:20

bombarded.

00:10:20 --> 00:10:21

Bombarded.

00:10:21 --> 00:10:25

Wallahi, our growing up, our era compared to

00:10:25 --> 00:10:28

this, wallahi, it's nothing.

00:10:28 --> 00:10:29

Nothing.

00:10:29 --> 00:10:32

The haram is literally on your fingertips.

00:10:33 --> 00:10:36

And you're telling them day and night, day

00:10:36 --> 00:10:41

and night, fight, resist, lower your gaze, do

00:10:41 --> 00:10:43

not talk to this, do not go there,

00:10:43 --> 00:10:45

don't eat this, don't drink that, don't be

00:10:45 --> 00:10:46

there.

00:10:46 --> 00:10:47

All the time.

00:10:48 --> 00:10:50

Subhanallah, that needs a lot of patience.

00:10:50 --> 00:10:51

And how old are they?

00:10:51 --> 00:10:53

11 and 12, and you're asking him with

00:10:53 --> 00:10:54

such a task.

00:10:54 --> 00:10:55

Huge task.

00:10:56 --> 00:10:58

Needs patience to lower your gaze in a

00:10:58 --> 00:10:58

country.

00:10:59 --> 00:11:01

Brother, two brothers, literally last night, they came

00:11:01 --> 00:11:02

to my office.

00:11:03 --> 00:11:04

Said, Sheikh, I'm 20 and he's 21.

00:11:06 --> 00:11:08

And khalas, we wanna get married, we cannot

00:11:08 --> 00:11:09

take this anymore.

00:11:10 --> 00:11:13

I said, ya habibi, tayyib, fast.

00:11:14 --> 00:11:16

Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, Sheikh, wallahi,

00:11:16 --> 00:11:17

I fasted two months in a row.

00:11:21 --> 00:11:23

Look at me, I lost so much weight.

00:11:24 --> 00:11:25

I can't, I wanna get married.

00:11:28 --> 00:11:30

Another brother came the other day, he said,

00:11:31 --> 00:11:33

a woman came to me and she said,

00:11:35 --> 00:11:39

non-Muslim, she said, hey, honey, would you

00:11:39 --> 00:11:42

like to go to my cabin in Oklahoma

00:11:42 --> 00:11:42

for the night?

00:11:42 --> 00:11:44

You go spend the night and come back.

00:11:46 --> 00:11:48

Sheikh, wallahi, she was very pretty.

00:11:49 --> 00:11:51

And I'm trying, wallahi, sheikh, I need to

00:11:51 --> 00:11:52

get married.

00:11:53 --> 00:11:54

Now, this is a side note, please, ya

00:11:54 --> 00:11:58

akhwan, if you have daughters, do not make

00:11:58 --> 00:12:00

it very complicated for the young men to

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

get married.

00:12:01 --> 00:12:02

Wallahi, they are suffering.

00:12:02 --> 00:12:03

They are suffering.

00:12:03 --> 00:12:06

They are trying so hard to stay away

00:12:06 --> 00:12:09

from the haram and we are not helping.

00:12:11 --> 00:12:14

30,000 dollars, mahr, I need an apartment,

00:12:14 --> 00:12:16

I need this, I need this.

00:12:16 --> 00:12:18

And you know what the guy said?

00:12:18 --> 00:12:20

Sheikh, how old are you?

00:12:21 --> 00:12:21

He said, 20.

00:12:22 --> 00:12:24

What are you looking for?

00:12:24 --> 00:12:26

18, 17, still too young?

00:12:27 --> 00:12:29

He said, no, no, no, this is why

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

I came to you.

00:12:30 --> 00:12:31

Can I marry a 30, 35?

00:12:34 --> 00:12:35

Divorced or widowed?

00:12:35 --> 00:12:37

I said, Islamically, you can.

00:12:37 --> 00:12:39

He said, but can I ask you why?

00:12:40 --> 00:12:40

What was the answer?

00:12:43 --> 00:12:44

It's cheaper.

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

It's cheaper.

00:12:48 --> 00:12:51

He said, everybody in my age, when we

00:12:51 --> 00:12:53

go approach them for marriage, they throw numbers

00:12:54 --> 00:12:56

that I have to take a loan to

00:12:56 --> 00:12:57

get married.

00:12:59 --> 00:13:04

One brother, one brother, literally, he made a

00:13:04 --> 00:13:07

contract to make a payment for his wife,

00:13:07 --> 00:13:09

for the mahr, without an interest.

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

He's giving her payment every month, because how

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

huge was the mahr, subhanallah.

00:13:16 --> 00:13:21

So, sabr an al-maasiyah, sabr ala al

00:13:21 --> 00:13:24

-taa'a, and sabr an, to avoid falling

00:13:24 --> 00:13:26

in the sin, needs a lot of sabr.

00:13:27 --> 00:13:29

Everybody around you is naked, and you have

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

to lower your gaze.

00:13:30 --> 00:13:32

That needs sabr, needs a lot of sabr.

00:13:32 --> 00:13:37

Everybody around you is going into that business

00:13:37 --> 00:13:40

that's making tons of money, but it's haram,

00:13:40 --> 00:13:43

and you are not, because it's haram, there's

00:13:43 --> 00:13:44

haram in it.

00:13:44 --> 00:13:45

There's no Jumu'ah in it.

00:13:45 --> 00:13:47

They won't allow you to do this.

00:13:47 --> 00:13:50

I cannot pray my duhr, and you're stopping.

00:13:51 --> 00:13:53

That needs patience, because the temptations are so

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

many.

00:13:54 --> 00:13:59

So, patience from performing maasiyah.

00:14:01 --> 00:14:03

Let me ask you a question.

00:14:03 --> 00:14:09

We all know that our Prophet Yusuf, went

00:14:09 --> 00:14:10

through so many trials.

00:14:11 --> 00:14:14

Thrown in the well, sold for darahim ma'duda,

00:14:15 --> 00:14:20

tempted by the woman, the dawjah of the

00:14:20 --> 00:14:23

aziz, thrown in jail, all this.

00:14:26 --> 00:14:28

Which one among these was the toughest?

00:14:33 --> 00:14:34

Fighting the woman.

00:14:35 --> 00:14:36

Temptation.

00:14:36 --> 00:14:38

When I'm thrown in the well, and I'm

00:14:38 --> 00:14:39

10-11 years old, what am I going

00:14:39 --> 00:14:40

to do?

00:14:40 --> 00:14:41

I have to be patient.

00:14:42 --> 00:14:43

When I'm thrown in jail, I have to

00:14:43 --> 00:14:44

be patient.

00:14:44 --> 00:14:47

But the patience of resisting a woman, while

00:14:47 --> 00:14:50

he's young, he's a abd in that house,

00:14:51 --> 00:14:54

she's gorgeous, she owns the house, she's all

00:14:54 --> 00:14:54

that.

00:14:55 --> 00:14:57

That needs a lot of patience.

00:14:58 --> 00:15:00

So the patience, sometimes patience not to fall

00:15:00 --> 00:15:04

into a sin, is bigger than other patience.

00:15:04 --> 00:15:07

And the last patience, is the patience upon

00:15:07 --> 00:15:09

the musibah.

00:15:09 --> 00:15:13

You lost subhanallah, tomorrow we have janazah for

00:15:13 --> 00:15:14

a 2 year old.

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

I cannot even imagine may Allah subhanahu wa

00:15:18 --> 00:15:20

ta'ala give the family the patience, and

00:15:20 --> 00:15:22

may Allah make this baby a reason for

00:15:22 --> 00:15:23

them to enter jannah.

00:15:24 --> 00:15:25

That needs a lot of patience.

00:15:25 --> 00:15:27

You have to remember that you know, this

00:15:27 --> 00:15:30

is an amanah from Allah, he gave it

00:15:30 --> 00:15:31

to me, and he can take it at

00:15:31 --> 00:15:32

any time.

00:15:32 --> 00:15:34

Rasulallah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam promised that this

00:15:34 --> 00:15:36

baby will stand at the door of jannah

00:15:36 --> 00:15:38

and he will hold, he will tell Allah

00:15:38 --> 00:15:41

ya Allah, I will not enter jannah until

00:15:41 --> 00:15:42

you bring my parents with me.

00:15:43 --> 00:15:45

You gotta keep talking to yourself, and reminding

00:15:45 --> 00:15:48

yourself about the reward of patience in such

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

a matter.

00:15:49 --> 00:15:51

Our brothers and sisters that are going through

00:15:51 --> 00:15:54

chronic pain, and they have so much pain

00:15:54 --> 00:15:57

all the time, that also needs a lot

00:15:57 --> 00:15:57

of patience.

00:15:58 --> 00:15:59

My brother and my sister, if you are

00:15:59 --> 00:16:02

one of these people, remember that Rasulallah sallallahu

00:16:02 --> 00:16:04

alayhi wa sallam said that this patience will

00:16:04 --> 00:16:08

keep purifying you until you walk on earth

00:16:08 --> 00:16:11

with no sin upon you, if you have

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

patience.

00:16:13 --> 00:16:14

You have patience.

00:16:15 --> 00:16:20

Now when things happen, when a calamity, now

00:16:20 --> 00:16:22

we're talking about the last one.

00:16:22 --> 00:16:24

Patience when you're hit by a calamity.

00:16:24 --> 00:16:27

The calamity, when a calamity takes place people

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

are divided into four kinds, four groups.

00:16:30 --> 00:16:33

Number one, person angry.

00:16:33 --> 00:16:34

Why?

00:16:34 --> 00:16:36

And screaming and yelling, I don't deserve this,

00:16:36 --> 00:16:38

I pray, I fast, I do this.

00:16:38 --> 00:16:39

This is sinful.

00:16:41 --> 00:16:42

The second is patient.

00:16:44 --> 00:16:46

Alhamdulillah he's patient, he's taken it.

00:16:46 --> 00:16:48

No complaint, no nothing, he's very patient.

00:16:48 --> 00:16:49

That's the second level.

00:16:50 --> 00:16:51

The third level.

00:16:52 --> 00:16:54

Anybody knows what's the third level?

00:16:55 --> 00:16:56

Rida.

00:16:57 --> 00:16:58

He's pleased.

00:16:59 --> 00:17:04

He's pleased with what happened as if nothing

00:17:04 --> 00:17:04

happened.

00:17:06 --> 00:17:08

That's a higher level than sabr.

00:17:08 --> 00:17:13

And then there's a level that is beyond,

00:17:14 --> 00:17:16

which is shukr.

00:17:19 --> 00:17:20

Who taught us this?

00:17:20 --> 00:17:25

Rasulullah S.A.W. When something evil happens,

00:17:25 --> 00:17:26

what did he tell us to say?

00:17:27 --> 00:17:32

Alhamdulillah على كل حال For someone to remember

00:17:32 --> 00:17:35

to say Alhamdulillah when he loses his son

00:17:35 --> 00:17:37

or his daughter or his father or his

00:17:37 --> 00:17:40

house or his business or he gets fired

00:17:40 --> 00:17:43

to say Alhamdulillah that is a very high

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

level.

00:17:43 --> 00:17:45

That's the level of shukr.

00:17:46 --> 00:17:50

Now when do we become patient?

00:17:51 --> 00:17:51

Instantly.

00:17:52 --> 00:17:54

Not after one week of complaining.

00:17:55 --> 00:17:58

Not after ten hours of screaming.

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

Instantly.

00:17:59 --> 00:18:00

What's the dalil?

00:18:00 --> 00:18:02

The hadith that we all know Rasulullah S

00:18:02 --> 00:18:04

.A.W. A woman was sitting on the

00:18:04 --> 00:18:05

grave of her husband.

00:18:05 --> 00:18:08

He passed by and he said Have taqwa

00:18:08 --> 00:18:09

of Allah and be patient.

00:18:10 --> 00:18:12

She said She did not know it was

00:18:12 --> 00:18:13

Rasulullah S.A.W. Leave me alone.

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

So when she found out it was Rasulullah

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

S.A.W. She went in to apologize.

00:18:18 --> 00:18:23

He said Al sabr Patience is when you

00:18:23 --> 00:18:25

are first hit with the calamity.

00:18:26 --> 00:18:27

Your son died.

00:18:30 --> 00:18:35

Your car is on fire.

00:18:36 --> 00:18:37

You're sitting here.

00:18:38 --> 00:18:38

You looked at your phone.

00:18:39 --> 00:18:39

You're fired.

00:18:40 --> 00:18:42

Tomorrow is your last day.

00:18:44 --> 00:18:46

Is that your first statement?

00:18:46 --> 00:18:48

If that it is or any kind of

00:18:48 --> 00:18:49

remembrance of Allah.

00:18:50 --> 00:18:54

Allahu Akbar Allahu Akbar That's amazing.

00:18:54 --> 00:18:58

Mabrook Now we'll finish with this.

00:18:59 --> 00:19:01

What are the fruits if I am patient?

00:19:01 --> 00:19:02

What are the fruits?

00:19:02 --> 00:19:03

What are the results?

00:19:03 --> 00:19:05

What are the rewards of being patient?

00:19:05 --> 00:19:11

Number one, the ayah we recited It is

00:19:11 --> 00:19:12

a reason for falah.

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

For success.

00:19:14 --> 00:19:16

Sabr is a reason for success.

00:19:17 --> 00:19:20

Second, it is one of the reasons that

00:19:20 --> 00:19:21

if you are patient you are not a

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

loser.

00:19:26 --> 00:19:28

All of us are losers.

00:19:29 --> 00:19:30

Can you imagine?

00:19:30 --> 00:19:39

Except So it will take you out from

00:19:39 --> 00:19:41

the group of losers if you are patient.

00:19:42 --> 00:19:46

Third, it will forgive all your sins.

00:19:53 --> 00:19:56

The one who do righteous deeds and be

00:19:56 --> 00:19:59

patient all their sins are forgiven.

00:19:59 --> 00:20:00

Look at this.

00:20:00 --> 00:20:04

The angels will welcome the people who were

00:20:04 --> 00:20:06

patient on the day of judgment.

00:20:06 --> 00:20:08

The angels will welcome them.

00:20:16 --> 00:20:18

May Allah have peace upon you.

00:20:18 --> 00:20:19

Why?

00:20:20 --> 00:20:21

Because you were patient.

00:20:23 --> 00:20:25

Go ahead.

00:20:25 --> 00:20:26

This is your Jannah.

00:20:27 --> 00:20:30

Fifth, like the ulema said, if this is

00:20:30 --> 00:20:33

the only reward for patience it is sufficient.

00:20:34 --> 00:20:39

Allah will love you.

00:20:40 --> 00:20:43

Allah will love the person who is patient.

00:20:43 --> 00:20:45

If that is the only goal I will

00:20:45 --> 00:20:48

get from being patient Wallahi, it is sufficient.

00:20:49 --> 00:21:02

Allah said, seek

00:21:02 --> 00:21:03

help with two things.

00:21:04 --> 00:21:05

Whenever you are going through any kind of

00:21:05 --> 00:21:07

difficulty, seek help with two things.

00:21:08 --> 00:21:10

Sabr and Salat.

00:21:11 --> 00:21:12

Patience and Salat.

00:21:13 --> 00:21:21

And did Allah say after that Why?

00:21:22 --> 00:21:24

Because everybody can get up and pray but

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

not everybody can be patient.

00:21:27 --> 00:21:29

And if Allah is with you, He will

00:21:29 --> 00:21:35

turn the poverty into richness the sadness into

00:21:35 --> 00:21:41

happiness the sickness into health You might be

00:21:41 --> 00:21:45

in a situation that is really really bad

00:21:45 --> 00:21:47

but because Allah is with you you will

00:21:47 --> 00:21:48

not feel it.

00:21:48 --> 00:21:50

Allah will put something in your heart that

00:21:50 --> 00:21:53

you will feel content with whatever state that

00:21:53 --> 00:21:54

you are in.

00:21:55 --> 00:22:07

And then, seventh, Subhanallah No

00:22:07 --> 00:22:13

unlimited No Jannah one million hasana No, no,

00:22:13 --> 00:22:19

no Nobody knows your reward except me just

00:22:19 --> 00:22:21

because you were patient.

00:22:52 --> 00:22:56

three rewards in this ayah Allah will mention

00:22:56 --> 00:22:58

your name will boast about you in front

00:22:58 --> 00:23:00

of the angels you will get the mercy

00:23:00 --> 00:23:04

of Allah and officially officially if you are

00:23:04 --> 00:23:11

sabr and you said officially declared by Allah

00:23:11 --> 00:23:14

that you are muhtadi you are guided Those

00:23:14 --> 00:23:16

00:23:16 --> 00:23:17

00:23:17 --> 00:23:24

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

is subhanallah entering to Jannah look at all

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

always you see the reward Jannah because they

00:24:24 --> 00:24:29

were patient and finally if anyone of us

00:24:29 --> 00:24:31

which is supposed to be every single one

00:24:31 --> 00:24:33

of us if you are in the dawah

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

if you are in the field of calling

00:24:35 --> 00:24:39

to Allah you need a lot a lot

00:24:39 --> 00:24:43

of patience every prophet if you look at

00:24:43 --> 00:24:46

their seerah you will find that they were

00:24:46 --> 00:24:49

drowning in patience this is what led them

00:24:49 --> 00:24:52

to whoever they are and look at the

00:24:52 --> 00:24:54

success of every single human being that you

00:24:54 --> 00:24:56

know you will find out that they were

00:24:56 --> 00:24:59

extremely patient till they got to where they

00:24:59 --> 00:25:02

are right now they did not overnight become

00:25:02 --> 00:25:04

rich or become famous or become this or
