00:00:06 --> 00:00:08
			I request if you don't have anything very
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:11
			important to please be seated because this is,
		
00:00:11 --> 00:00:12
			extremely important.
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:26
			Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:28
			out of his mercy,
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:43
			that are better than others. And every once
		
00:00:43 --> 00:00:45
			in a while, we got those seasons,
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			and they are gift from
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:48
			to accumulate
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:50
			as many
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			as possible.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:55
			When we have a wedding, we have
		
00:00:57 --> 00:00:59
			a graduation, we have a big thing going
		
00:00:59 --> 00:01:01
			on in our life, we plan way ahead.
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:05
			If we really understand
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			and know the virtue
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:11
			and the weight of these 10 days that
		
00:01:11 --> 00:01:13
			they are coming, wallahi, we will start planning
		
00:01:13 --> 00:01:14
			2 months before.
		
00:01:16 --> 00:01:18
			Right after Ramadan, we will start planning for
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:18
			this.
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			Why?
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:21
			Because these days,
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:23
			they are
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:27
			so important,
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:28
			so precious
		
00:01:28 --> 00:01:30
			that Al Aweem himself,
		
00:01:31 --> 00:01:33
			Allah swore by them.
		
00:01:35 --> 00:01:35
			Allah
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40
			can swear by any of his creation. But
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			we as Muslims, we are not allowed to
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:43
			swear except by
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			Allah. We have a
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:47
			we have a habit in our countries.
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:49
			I don't know about
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:52
			a lot of the Arab countries. They swear
		
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54
			by their father, by their mother.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			They swear by the Kaaba. They swear by
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			the many things. This is not allowed.
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			This is not allowed.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:02
			First of all, the Muslim
		
00:02:03 --> 00:02:05
			supposed to be always truthful and does he
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:08
			does not need to swear. But if you
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:11
			have to swear, you only swear by Allah
		
00:02:11 --> 00:02:12
			But Allah
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:14
			he could swear by anything he want.
		
00:02:18 --> 00:02:20
			So he swore by these days when he
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:20
			said,
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:25
			open the books of tafsir
		
00:02:25 --> 00:02:27
			and look what does
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:31
			mean. You will find that this means the
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:32
			first 10 days of their hija.
		
00:02:33 --> 00:02:35
			The first 10 days of their hija. This
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:37
			is one of the main things that make
		
00:02:37 --> 00:02:40
			these days very virtuous is that Allah
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:42
			himself swore by them.
		
00:02:44 --> 00:02:44
			2nd,
		
00:02:48 --> 00:02:49
			if you read the a hadith
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:51
			about the reward
		
00:02:52 --> 00:02:54
			and the virtue of these days, you will
		
00:02:54 --> 00:02:55
			see that Rasool Allah
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:58
			who is the most eloquent person ever,
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:02
			used words about these that he never used
		
00:03:02 --> 00:03:03
			any about any other days.
		
00:03:04 --> 00:03:06
			He said in the most famous hadith,
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:18
			No days, in the first hadith, he used
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:18
			the word,
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:21
			most beloved.
		
00:03:21 --> 00:03:21
			No
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:26
			is most beloved to Allah
		
00:03:26 --> 00:03:30
			than the amal, than the righteous deeds done
		
00:03:30 --> 00:03:31
			in these 10 days.
		
00:03:31 --> 00:03:34
			One hadith, he used the word ahab.
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:36
			Another hadith, he used the word aafal.
		
00:03:37 --> 00:03:40
			Another hadith, he used the word aavam.
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:42
			Greater,
		
00:03:42 --> 00:03:44
			more superior
		
00:03:45 --> 00:03:49
			about the amar saliha done in these 10
		
00:03:49 --> 00:03:52
			days. Now, listen to this. The Sahaba's mind
		
00:03:52 --> 00:03:54
			immediately went to jihad.
		
00:04:00 --> 00:04:00
			They immediately
		
00:04:01 --> 00:04:02
			not even jihad.
		
00:04:03 --> 00:04:04
			Not even jihad.
		
00:04:07 --> 00:04:08
			Rasulullah SAW Alaihi Wasallam said, not
		
00:04:17 --> 00:04:18
			these 10 days. Rasulullah
		
00:04:19 --> 00:04:20
			made one exception.
		
00:04:21 --> 00:04:22
			One exception
		
00:04:23 --> 00:04:25
			of a person that has two characteristics.
		
00:04:26 --> 00:04:27
			The only
		
00:04:27 --> 00:04:30
			that is more beloved to Allah
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:32
			than the actions in these 10 days is
		
00:04:32 --> 00:04:34
			a man or a person who goes to
		
00:04:34 --> 00:04:35
			jihad
		
00:04:35 --> 00:04:37
			and he will not come back
		
00:04:37 --> 00:04:39
			with himself or with his money.
		
00:04:41 --> 00:04:43
			What does that mean?
		
00:04:44 --> 00:04:46
			That means if a person went to jihad
		
00:04:47 --> 00:04:49
			from 11th Al Hijjah,
		
00:04:52 --> 00:04:54
			All the way 1 year he kept on
		
00:04:54 --> 00:04:55
			making jihad
		
00:04:55 --> 00:04:56
			till 1
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			of the next year. And he
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:03
			came back. He came back. The amal in
		
00:05:03 --> 00:05:05
			these 10 days, the person who was giving
		
00:05:05 --> 00:05:07
			sadaqah in these 10 days, the person who
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:08
			was
		
00:05:09 --> 00:05:10
			sadaqa in these 10 days, the person who
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:11
			was fasting in these 10 days, the person
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:12
			who was reading Quran in these 10 days
		
00:05:12 --> 00:05:14
			is better than that pujayd.
		
00:05:15 --> 00:05:16
			That's what Dadi said.
		
00:05:17 --> 00:05:20
			If he comes back, the only that
		
00:05:20 --> 00:05:22
			is better than the done in these 10
		
00:05:22 --> 00:05:24
			days is he goes and he never comes
		
00:05:24 --> 00:05:24
			back.
		
00:05:25 --> 00:05:28
			Allahu Akbar. I want you to feel what's
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:29
			coming up.
		
00:05:29 --> 00:05:30
			I want you to feel it.
		
00:05:34 --> 00:05:36
			Rasool wasallahu alaihi wa sallam, he did not
		
00:05:36 --> 00:05:36
			say
		
00:05:37 --> 00:05:40
			and then he said between brackets except Ramadan.
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:44
			No days
		
00:05:45 --> 00:05:47
			no days open.
		
00:05:48 --> 00:05:48
			The
		
00:05:50 --> 00:05:53
			last 10 days of Ramadan are very virtuous,
		
00:05:53 --> 00:05:54
			they said,
		
00:05:54 --> 00:05:57
			the nights, the last 10 nights of Ramadan
		
00:05:58 --> 00:06:00
			are the best nights of the year. But
		
00:06:00 --> 00:06:00
			daytime
		
00:06:01 --> 00:06:02
			daytime,
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:05
			the best that the first 10 days of
		
00:06:05 --> 00:06:07
			Dhul Hijjah are better in the daytime time
		
00:06:07 --> 00:06:09
			than the last 10 days of Ramadan.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:11
			And
		
00:06:12 --> 00:06:12
			the
		
00:06:21 --> 00:06:22
			No days.
		
00:06:24 --> 00:06:26
			3rd reason for the virtue of these days.
		
00:06:27 --> 00:06:28
			The only
		
00:06:28 --> 00:06:31
			time of the year that all
		
00:06:32 --> 00:06:33
			5 pillars of Islam
		
00:06:34 --> 00:06:34
			are
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:35
			gathered
		
00:06:36 --> 00:06:37
			are these 10 days.
		
00:06:39 --> 00:06:40
			Shahada, it's everyday.
		
00:06:40 --> 00:06:41
			There is
		
00:06:42 --> 00:06:42
			right?
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:44
			There is of
		
00:06:45 --> 00:06:48
			there is all the time. The there is
		
00:06:49 --> 00:06:49
			and there's
		
00:06:50 --> 00:06:52
			That's the only time of the year that
		
00:06:52 --> 00:06:53
			all 5 pillars
		
00:06:54 --> 00:06:54
			meet.
		
00:06:55 --> 00:06:57
			No other time of the year. You might
		
00:06:57 --> 00:06:59
			have 4 of them, maybe in Ramadan. But
		
00:06:59 --> 00:07:02
			you will never have the hajj except in
		
00:07:02 --> 00:07:03
			these 10 days.
		
00:07:03 --> 00:07:06
			Another reason that these 10 days are precious
		
00:07:06 --> 00:07:07
			is that they have
		
00:07:08 --> 00:07:09
			in them.
		
00:07:12 --> 00:07:14
			The day that Allah
		
00:07:15 --> 00:07:17
			boast to the angels about all the people
		
00:07:17 --> 00:07:19
			in and he tells them, look at my
		
00:07:19 --> 00:07:21
			slaves coming from everywhere
		
00:07:21 --> 00:07:22
			asking me.
		
00:07:23 --> 00:07:24
			Tell them I've forgiven
		
00:07:24 --> 00:07:25
			everything.
		
00:07:25 --> 00:07:27
			May Allah forgive all our sins.
		
00:07:28 --> 00:07:30
			In these days also,
		
00:07:32 --> 00:07:34
			the best day of the year, the hadith
		
00:07:34 --> 00:07:35
			of Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam,
		
00:07:37 --> 00:07:39
			the best day of the year is
		
00:07:43 --> 00:07:44
			ish.
		
00:07:48 --> 00:07:50
			Somebody said it. Some people think it's alifah,
		
00:07:50 --> 00:07:52
			but it's not alifah.
		
00:07:53 --> 00:07:54
			It is
		
00:07:58 --> 00:08:00
			The hadith said the best day of the
		
00:08:00 --> 00:08:01
			year is.
		
00:08:03 --> 00:08:05
			The day of. Now Arafa is
		
00:08:05 --> 00:08:08
			big, but if you ask according to the
		
00:08:08 --> 00:08:10
			hadith, the best day of the year is.
		
00:08:10 --> 00:08:13
			So it is included in these 10 days
		
00:08:13 --> 00:08:14
			also.
		
00:08:17 --> 00:08:18
			Now, if Allah
		
00:08:21 --> 00:08:22
			kept me alive
		
00:08:22 --> 00:08:24
			to witness these days, which
		
00:08:25 --> 00:08:26
			we always go by the moon sighting.
		
00:08:27 --> 00:08:28
			So approximately,
		
00:08:29 --> 00:08:30
			if today is 27,
		
00:08:32 --> 00:08:33
			tomorrow 28 of
		
00:08:35 --> 00:08:36
			the. Sunday will be 29,
		
00:08:37 --> 00:08:38
			so either Monday
		
00:08:39 --> 00:08:42
			or Tuesday. If the is 30 days, then
		
00:08:42 --> 00:08:44
			it will start Tuesday. If the is 29
		
00:08:44 --> 00:08:46
			days, then it will start Monday.
		
00:08:47 --> 00:08:48
			And usually,
		
00:08:49 --> 00:08:50
			the you
		
00:08:50 --> 00:08:52
			will know ahead of time when is the
		
00:08:52 --> 00:08:53
			Eid because there's 10 days. So
		
00:08:54 --> 00:08:55
			you will find out.
		
00:08:55 --> 00:08:57
			And the minute I find out,
		
00:08:58 --> 00:08:59
			then
		
00:08:59 --> 00:09:01
			I have to start or from have to
		
00:09:01 --> 00:09:03
			start planning from now. Because if it is
		
00:09:03 --> 00:09:06
			Monday, I'm ready. I have the plan already.
		
00:09:06 --> 00:09:08
			What we gonna do? Number 1, Before
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:11
			we start
		
00:09:13 --> 00:09:15
			the Ibadat, we have to
		
00:09:15 --> 00:09:16
			clean the house,
		
00:09:17 --> 00:09:18
			cleanse.
		
00:09:20 --> 00:09:20
			Please
		
00:09:22 --> 00:09:22
			don't
		
00:09:23 --> 00:09:25
			go into these days
		
00:09:26 --> 00:09:27
			and you
		
00:09:28 --> 00:09:31
			have any kind of ill feelings toward anybody,
		
00:09:31 --> 00:09:31
			please,
		
00:09:32 --> 00:09:33
			whoever it is,
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:35
			the closer it is,
		
00:09:36 --> 00:09:38
			the closer the person to you
		
00:09:38 --> 00:09:39
			in relationship,
		
00:09:40 --> 00:09:42
			the more he or she is deserving of
		
00:09:42 --> 00:09:43
			your forgiveness.
		
00:09:43 --> 00:09:45
			If you have problem with your parents, number
		
00:09:45 --> 00:09:47
			1, make sure you clean it before you
		
00:09:47 --> 00:09:49
			go into these days. You have problem with
		
00:09:49 --> 00:09:51
			your spouse, with your wife, with your
		
00:09:59 --> 00:10:01
			Masjid, make sure you go into these days.
		
00:10:01 --> 00:10:04
			Before these days come, you text your brother,
		
00:10:04 --> 00:10:06
			you call your brother and tell him, brother,
		
00:10:06 --> 00:10:08
			for the sake of Allah, please, let's go
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:10
			in the best 10 days of the year
		
00:10:10 --> 00:10:12
			with a clean heart. So Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:10:12 --> 00:10:14
			ta'ala will forgive me and you. We all
		
00:10:14 --> 00:10:14
			know
		
00:10:16 --> 00:10:17
			If we just
		
00:10:21 --> 00:10:22
			sallam said
		
00:10:22 --> 00:10:23
			that my
		
00:10:25 --> 00:10:27
			will be on hold on hold.
		
00:10:30 --> 00:10:33
			When Monday Thursday, the presented to
		
00:10:35 --> 00:10:37
			Allah everything will be lifted except
		
00:10:37 --> 00:10:38
			except
		
00:10:38 --> 00:10:40
			the people who have.
		
00:10:41 --> 00:10:43
			They have fight with each other. They do
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:45
			not speak to each other. Their
		
00:10:45 --> 00:10:47
			are on hold. So I worried I worked
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:49
			so hard in the 10 days of their
		
00:10:49 --> 00:10:52
			hija. I fasted, I we're gonna mention all
		
00:10:52 --> 00:10:53
			the things. And I did everything.
		
00:10:54 --> 00:10:56
			And then they're all standing right here because
		
00:10:56 --> 00:10:58
			I have a fight with my cousin for
		
00:10:58 --> 00:11:00
			5 years. He borrowed a $1,000. He never
		
00:11:00 --> 00:11:01
			gave it to me.
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:04
			His wife fought with my wife and we
		
00:11:04 --> 00:11:07
			because the kids said something and we haven't
		
00:11:07 --> 00:11:08
			spoken in in in 6 months.
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:12
			Everything on hold. So what is that amal?
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:15
			What did that person do that deserve that
		
00:11:15 --> 00:11:16
			my will be on hold?
		
00:11:18 --> 00:11:19
			All it takes
		
00:11:20 --> 00:11:22
			I'm not telling you become best friends and
		
00:11:22 --> 00:11:24
			go visit each other every single day.
		
00:11:26 --> 00:11:28
			May Allah give you in these 10 days.
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:30
			Done. For the sake of Allah,
		
00:11:31 --> 00:11:33
			like I always repeat, maybe that person does
		
00:11:33 --> 00:11:35
			not even deserve it. He's so bad. She's
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:38
			so bad. But I'm not working with you.
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:40
			I don't deal with you. I deal with
		
00:11:40 --> 00:11:41
			Allah. He ordered me. I'm doing it for
		
00:11:41 --> 00:11:44
			him. So then the will become easy because
		
00:11:44 --> 00:11:46
			for Allah, we do anything.
		
00:11:47 --> 00:11:50
			So start these days by forgiving everybody.
		
00:11:51 --> 00:11:52
			Go in there with clean heart.
		
00:11:53 --> 00:11:53
			2nd,
		
00:11:54 --> 00:11:56
			we always start start to the I cannot
		
00:11:56 --> 00:11:57
			tell you,
		
00:11:58 --> 00:12:00
			read Quran and you are not praying on
		
00:12:00 --> 00:12:00
			time.
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:03
			We always start to the because
		
00:12:04 --> 00:12:05
			this is the first thing we would be
		
00:12:05 --> 00:12:06
			questioned about is the
		
00:12:07 --> 00:12:09
			Then the and the sunan come. But the
		
00:12:09 --> 00:12:10
			main thing is the
		
00:12:11 --> 00:12:13
			So my brother, my sister,
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:14
			if
		
00:12:14 --> 00:12:17
			you are neglectful of your salat,
		
00:12:17 --> 00:12:19
			make sure this should be the start of
		
00:12:19 --> 00:12:20
			praying
		
00:12:27 --> 00:12:27
			on
		
00:12:29 --> 00:12:29
			time.
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:32
			Sister, when you hear the adhan
		
00:12:33 --> 00:12:34
			on your phone
		
00:12:34 --> 00:12:35
			at home,
		
00:12:35 --> 00:12:36
			immediately
		
00:12:42 --> 00:12:43
			days,
		
00:12:46 --> 00:12:47
			please, please,
		
00:12:48 --> 00:12:50
			just in these 10 days, train yourself.
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:53
			I'm looking at the faces, and I I
		
00:12:53 --> 00:12:56
			know that these faces are people of fajal
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:57
			and jamaah. I most of them.
		
00:12:58 --> 00:12:59
			For the brothers who do not come to
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:01
			fajal and jamaah, fajal in congregation,
		
00:13:03 --> 00:13:04
			please, let's make it a habit these 10
		
00:13:04 --> 00:13:06
			days. Let's start coming to the masjid
		
00:13:07 --> 00:13:08
			these 10 days.
		
00:13:09 --> 00:13:09
			Everything
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:14
			is multiplied. Everything is multiplied. How Yeah, Allah.
		
00:13:14 --> 00:13:16
			Who can guarantee me I'm gonna live and
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:17
			witness
		
00:13:18 --> 00:13:19
			another time, another
		
00:13:22 --> 00:13:23
			hasanam.
		
00:13:23 --> 00:13:24
			So
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:27
			those 10 days, let's make a
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:35
			That every and
		
00:13:36 --> 00:13:38
			at least because the rest of the days,
		
00:13:38 --> 00:13:39
			the rest of the salawat maybe I'm at
		
00:13:39 --> 00:13:41
			work, but at least
		
00:13:42 --> 00:13:43
			I am at home,
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:45
			or before I go to work or when
		
00:13:45 --> 00:13:47
			I come back at work, at least those
		
00:13:47 --> 00:13:47
			10 days,
		
00:13:48 --> 00:13:49
			in the
		
00:13:51 --> 00:13:52
			masjid. Agree, brothers?
		
00:13:53 --> 00:13:54
			Let me hear you.
		
00:14:04 --> 00:14:05
			So everybody,
		
00:14:07 --> 00:14:09
			these 10 days in the Masjid, plus, you
		
00:14:09 --> 00:14:12
			know, you you attend the the lectures and
		
00:14:12 --> 00:14:14
			the halakat and Allahu Akbar, you are surrounded
		
00:14:14 --> 00:14:16
			by the angels just like we are right
		
00:14:16 --> 00:14:19
			now. Allah will mention your name. SubhanAllah. A
		
00:14:19 --> 00:14:22
			lot of reward. Lot of reward. So first
		
00:14:22 --> 00:14:22
			is
		
00:14:24 --> 00:14:25
			in in jamaal.
		
00:14:26 --> 00:14:27
			2nd,
		
00:14:29 --> 00:14:29
			whom
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:31
			some people
		
00:14:31 --> 00:14:33
			are neglectful of the sun,
		
00:14:34 --> 00:14:37
			maybe they neglect sun at, dhor, maybe they
		
00:14:37 --> 00:14:38
			neglect sun at,
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:39
			maybe
		
00:14:49 --> 00:14:50
			concentrating on the sunnah.
		
00:14:52 --> 00:14:52
			Why?
		
00:14:53 --> 00:14:54
			Because the sunnah,
		
00:14:55 --> 00:14:57
			you know, if there's any holes, any defects,
		
00:14:57 --> 00:14:59
			any shortcomings in my,
		
00:14:59 --> 00:15:00
			I was neglectful.
		
00:15:01 --> 00:15:04
			I always get distracted in my salat.
		
00:15:04 --> 00:15:06
			Like the hadith said, said, does my have
		
00:15:06 --> 00:15:07
			any
		
00:15:08 --> 00:15:10
			Allah would ask and he is the all
		
00:15:10 --> 00:15:12
			knowing, does my slave have any extra
		
00:15:12 --> 00:15:15
			to cover for all these holes that happened
		
00:15:15 --> 00:15:15
			in the
		
00:15:16 --> 00:15:18
			If there's nothing, then you have a problem.
		
00:15:18 --> 00:15:20
			But if you have a lot of going
		
00:15:20 --> 00:15:21
			on, then we'll take from here and cover
		
00:15:21 --> 00:15:23
			all these holes here.
		
00:15:23 --> 00:15:25
			So increase the increase
		
00:15:25 --> 00:15:28
			the nafil in these days as much as
		
00:15:28 --> 00:15:29
			as you can.
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:30
			Then
		
00:15:31 --> 00:15:32
			we come to
		
00:15:34 --> 00:15:36
			Because the surah alaihi wasallam, keep in mind,
		
00:15:36 --> 00:15:37
			he said,
		
00:15:42 --> 00:15:45
			comes under righteous deeds is everything good.
		
00:15:46 --> 00:15:46
			Everything.
		
00:15:48 --> 00:15:49
			What is
		
00:15:51 --> 00:15:52
			the longest righteous deed?
		
00:15:55 --> 00:15:56
			What is it?
		
00:15:58 --> 00:15:59
			Right? Fasting.
		
00:16:02 --> 00:16:03
			15 hour
		
00:16:04 --> 00:16:07
			righteous deed. Salat maybe 5, 10 minutes.
		
00:16:07 --> 00:16:08
			But
		
00:16:10 --> 00:16:11
			15 hour righteous
		
00:16:13 --> 00:16:14
			deed is siyam. Can I fast the whole
		
00:16:14 --> 00:16:17
			9 days? Allahu Akbar. Why not?
		
00:16:18 --> 00:16:19
			There's
		
00:16:30 --> 00:16:32
			days. Cut. And there's a hadith and Hafsa.
		
00:16:32 --> 00:16:34
			Wife of Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam, it
		
00:16:34 --> 00:16:36
			says says he never left
		
00:16:36 --> 00:16:38
			fasting the 9 days.
		
00:16:38 --> 00:16:41
			How can we reconcile between both? Two wives
		
00:16:41 --> 00:16:42
			of the prophet,
		
00:16:43 --> 00:16:44
			one is saying he never.
		
00:16:54 --> 00:16:56
			On the days of Aisha,
		
00:16:57 --> 00:16:59
			maybe Rasool was not fasting.
		
00:17:01 --> 00:17:04
			They combined by they reconcile between the 2
		
00:17:04 --> 00:17:06
			hadith. They said, in order to reconcile between
		
00:17:06 --> 00:17:08
			2 hadith because they are both,
		
00:17:09 --> 00:17:11
			fast as much as you can.
		
00:17:12 --> 00:17:14
			Fast as much as you can.
		
00:17:14 --> 00:17:17
			And another interpretation, they said when Aisha said
		
00:17:17 --> 00:17:20
			he never fasted the 9 days, she he
		
00:17:20 --> 00:17:23
			meant she meant that he never fasted the
		
00:17:23 --> 00:17:24
			whole 9 days.
		
00:17:24 --> 00:17:25
			Because
		
00:17:27 --> 00:17:28
			when Rasool said,
		
00:17:30 --> 00:17:32
			a righteous deed is most beloved to
		
00:17:34 --> 00:17:36
			Allah in these days. And we all know.
		
00:17:36 --> 00:17:37
			Rasool Allah
		
00:17:38 --> 00:17:40
			said in the hadith al Qudsi, siam is
		
00:17:40 --> 00:17:42
			for me. Yeah. It's so rewarding.
		
00:17:44 --> 00:17:45
			And we all know
		
00:17:47 --> 00:17:49
			There nothing equivalent to siyam.
		
00:17:50 --> 00:17:52
			No nothing equivalent to fasting. And we all
		
00:17:52 --> 00:17:53
			know
		
00:17:59 --> 00:18:02
			Allah will keep him away from * 70
		
00:18:02 --> 00:18:03
			years.
		
00:18:03 --> 00:18:06
			So there's It's a very virtuous deed. We
		
00:18:06 --> 00:18:08
			all know and we have no doubt that
		
00:18:08 --> 00:18:10
			fasting is a great deed,
		
00:18:10 --> 00:18:11
			is a great amal.
		
00:18:12 --> 00:18:14
			So what do I do? Fast as much
		
00:18:14 --> 00:18:16
			as I can. I wanna fast the whole
		
00:18:16 --> 00:18:16
			nine,
		
00:18:17 --> 00:18:19
			I wanna fast 3, 4, 5 days,
		
00:18:20 --> 00:18:21
			problem. But
		
00:18:24 --> 00:18:26
			if you wanna say brother
		
00:18:28 --> 00:18:30
			bother me a lot and I can't fast
		
00:18:30 --> 00:18:32
			all these days. I would recommend and I
		
00:18:32 --> 00:18:33
			would tell you please,
		
00:18:34 --> 00:18:35
			fast 9th.
		
00:18:36 --> 00:18:37
			At least fast
		
00:18:38 --> 00:18:39
			9th, which
		
00:18:40 --> 00:18:41
			is the day of of
		
00:18:42 --> 00:18:42
			Arafah.
		
00:18:44 --> 00:18:46
			Definitely, we'll have some talks before that,
		
00:18:46 --> 00:18:48
			but just in case
		
00:18:48 --> 00:18:51
			Rasulullah said, whomsoever fast the day of Arafah,
		
00:18:51 --> 00:18:52
			what happened, Sheikh?
		
00:18:53 --> 00:18:53
			What happened?
		
00:18:54 --> 00:18:55
			2 years
		
00:18:56 --> 00:18:57
			of sins are forgiven.
		
00:18:58 --> 00:18:58
			1
		
00:18:59 --> 00:19:00
			passed, one coming.
		
00:19:02 --> 00:19:03
			You're talking about
		
00:19:05 --> 00:19:07
			12 hours of fasting.
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:10
			Let's do some math. I like the math.
		
00:19:10 --> 00:19:12
			12 hours of fasting will delete
		
00:19:13 --> 00:19:14
			24 months.
		
00:19:15 --> 00:19:16
			Yeah. Any one
		
00:19:17 --> 00:19:19
			hour will delete 2 months
		
00:19:20 --> 00:19:21
			of 2 months of
		
00:19:22 --> 00:19:23
			of sins.
		
00:19:25 --> 00:19:28
			Yeah. Any one minute will delete one day.
		
00:19:30 --> 00:19:32
			Allahu Akbar. So how can I let that
		
00:19:32 --> 00:19:35
			go? Make sure you you fast, your children,
		
00:19:35 --> 00:19:37
			everybody in the family fast.
		
00:19:39 --> 00:19:41
			If I fast the whole days,
		
00:19:42 --> 00:19:42
			If I
		
00:19:43 --> 00:19:45
			can't, just at least the 9th.
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:47
			But because
		
00:19:48 --> 00:19:49
			if you are
		
00:19:51 --> 00:19:53
			I'm intending to fast the whole 9 days
		
00:19:53 --> 00:19:53
			because
		
00:19:54 --> 00:19:55
			I need a lot of.
		
00:19:56 --> 00:19:57
			I need
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			so bad every I can
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:02
			grab. I have no clue if my siyam
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:04
			was accepted in the past 30, 40 years,
		
00:20:04 --> 00:20:06
			Allahu Alam. So I need so bad. So
		
00:20:06 --> 00:20:09
			I'm looking forward for these days to come.
		
00:20:09 --> 00:20:11
			I know it's very hard. You know why?
		
00:20:11 --> 00:20:12
			It's harder than Ramadan.
		
00:20:13 --> 00:20:16
			Why? In Ramadan, everybody's fasting and if you
		
00:20:16 --> 00:20:18
			don't fast, it's a sin. Here, if you
		
00:20:18 --> 00:20:20
			don't fast, it's not a sin.
		
00:20:21 --> 00:20:21
			In Ramadan,
		
00:20:22 --> 00:20:24
			it helps you, it encourage you. The shayateen
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:25
			are chained.
		
00:20:26 --> 00:20:28
			Chained. They're gonna come to you and tell
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:29
			you, forget about bajur.
		
00:20:30 --> 00:20:31
			This guy talks too much.
		
00:20:32 --> 00:20:35
			In Ramadan, he was chained. Now he's gonna
		
00:20:35 --> 00:20:36
			tell you, listen, this is optional.
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:38
			You don't have to fast.
		
00:20:39 --> 00:20:41
			You're a you're a big sheikh. You have
		
00:20:41 --> 00:20:43
			a lot of hasanat. No, no, no, no.
		
00:20:43 --> 00:20:44
			I have I don't have any.
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:46
			I need every single.
		
00:20:47 --> 00:20:49
			So whatever you can, as much as you
		
00:20:49 --> 00:20:52
			can, again, I repeat, it's not a sin.
		
00:20:52 --> 00:20:54
			It's not a sin not to fast. If
		
00:20:54 --> 00:20:55
			you fast,
		
00:20:55 --> 00:20:58
			if you don't fast, you're not sinful. But
		
00:20:58 --> 00:20:59
			you know when the the when the kid,
		
00:20:59 --> 00:21:01
			he wants to get a plus
		
00:21:01 --> 00:21:04
			in the exam, he finished all the exam,
		
00:21:04 --> 00:21:06
			all the questions, and then the end, there
		
00:21:06 --> 00:21:08
			was a bonus question. If you answer it,
		
00:21:08 --> 00:21:09
			you get 10 points.
		
00:21:10 --> 00:21:11
			I want those 10 points
		
00:21:12 --> 00:21:13
			because I don't know what I did up
		
00:21:14 --> 00:21:14
			there.
		
00:21:15 --> 00:21:17
			So fasting is one of the greatest Ibadah.
		
00:21:17 --> 00:21:19
			There's one beautiful hadith that said, whomsoever
		
00:21:20 --> 00:21:21
			his life ends
		
00:21:22 --> 00:21:23
			while he was fasting,
		
00:21:23 --> 00:21:24
			he will enter.
		
00:21:26 --> 00:21:28
			Whomsoever his last last was,
		
00:21:29 --> 00:21:31
			this is a sign of good
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:34
			end. It's a sign of a good end.
		
00:21:36 --> 00:21:36
			3rd,
		
00:21:38 --> 00:21:38
			there's
		
00:21:46 --> 00:21:49
			we are going to revive it. Ready?
		
00:21:49 --> 00:21:51
			Are you ready? Because what happens when you
		
00:21:51 --> 00:21:52
			revive a sunnah?
		
00:21:53 --> 00:21:54
			What happens?
		
00:21:54 --> 00:21:55
			What
		
00:21:56 --> 00:21:57
			happens when you revive a sunnah?
		
00:21:59 --> 00:22:02
			Everybody who did it, you will get the
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:02
			same
		
00:22:02 --> 00:22:04
			reward. What is that sunnah?
		
00:22:04 --> 00:22:07
			Anybody wanna guess? What is that sunnah that's
		
00:22:07 --> 00:22:08
			neglected in these days?
		
00:22:24 --> 00:22:27
			All 10 days you hardly see anybody doing
		
00:22:27 --> 00:22:28
			it. Umar
		
00:22:30 --> 00:22:33
			used to walk in the market and scream,
		
00:22:33 --> 00:22:35
			and everybody start repeating and, you know, they
		
00:22:35 --> 00:22:36
			remember, oh, takbir,
		
00:22:37 --> 00:22:40
			said, no amel is most beloved to Allah
		
00:22:40 --> 00:22:42
			than any amel done in these days.
		
00:22:47 --> 00:22:48
			So say abundantly,
		
00:22:53 --> 00:22:56
			Extra. Hardly anybody does it. So when you're
		
00:22:56 --> 00:22:58
			coming to the masjid for fajr,
		
00:23:07 --> 00:23:09
			All we mentioned that before. I will repeat
		
00:23:09 --> 00:23:10
			it just to remind you.
		
00:23:11 --> 00:23:12
			Look at
		
00:23:13 --> 00:23:13
			the
		
00:23:14 --> 00:23:17
			in the Quran where Allah mentions the word.
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:19
			Remembrance.
		
00:23:19 --> 00:23:20
			You will find
		
00:23:20 --> 00:23:22
			right next to it the word
		
00:23:38 --> 00:23:39
			Everywhere you see
		
00:23:39 --> 00:23:40
			dhikr,
		
00:23:40 --> 00:23:42
			every Ibadah is limited to a certain time,
		
00:23:42 --> 00:23:45
			a certain place, certain amount except dhikr,
		
00:23:46 --> 00:23:46
			unlimited.
		
00:23:47 --> 00:23:48
			The
		
00:23:50 --> 00:23:51
			same Allah said
		
00:23:53 --> 00:23:56
			He mentioned all the but he never said
		
00:23:56 --> 00:23:59
			except about zikr. And when Allah subhanahu wa
		
00:24:02 --> 00:24:04
			ta'ala wants to talk about the munafiqeen,
		
00:24:05 --> 00:24:06
			the hypocrites,
		
00:24:08 --> 00:24:09
			the hypocrites,
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:11
			he did not say they do not remember
		
00:24:11 --> 00:24:14
			Allah, the hypocrites. No. They do remember Allah.
		
00:24:14 --> 00:24:15
			But what happened?
		
00:24:30 --> 00:24:33
			They still remember Allah but kaleel. Yeah. And
		
00:24:33 --> 00:24:35
			the one who remembers Allah, kaleel, is one
		
00:24:35 --> 00:24:37
			of the munafiqeen, one of signs of nifaq.
		
00:24:38 --> 00:24:38
			Kaleel.
		
00:24:39 --> 00:24:40
			Just hardly.
		
00:24:40 --> 00:24:41
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:24:42 --> 00:24:44
			So all day long in these 10 days,
		
00:24:44 --> 00:24:44
			and
		
00:24:45 --> 00:24:46
			this is not only on the 10 days.
		
00:24:46 --> 00:24:49
			The 10 days are a charge for the
		
00:24:49 --> 00:24:50
			rest of your
		
00:24:53 --> 00:24:53
			life.
		
00:24:54 --> 00:24:56
			If you know the virtue of these four
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:56
			words, means lecture by itself. The most beloved
		
00:24:56 --> 00:24:59
			words to Allah. Lecture by itself.
		
00:24:59 --> 00:25:01
			The most beloved words to Allah.
		
00:25:05 --> 00:25:06
			Said,
		
00:25:06 --> 00:25:08
			to say these words is better than the
		
00:25:08 --> 00:25:10
			whole dunya and everything in it.
		
00:25:12 --> 00:25:14
			And the most beloved words to Allah
		
00:25:14 --> 00:25:15
			And
		
00:25:15 --> 00:25:16
			once he was holding
		
00:25:17 --> 00:25:19
			a branch with leaves and he shook it
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:22
			and the leaves start falling. He said, you
		
00:25:22 --> 00:25:23
			see how the leaves are falling? They said,
		
00:25:23 --> 00:25:24
			yes,
		
00:25:24 --> 00:25:25
			He said, when you say
		
00:25:28 --> 00:25:31
			all your sins will fall just like the
		
00:25:31 --> 00:25:32
			leaves are falling from this branch.
		
00:25:33 --> 00:25:35
			So how can I waste any Does not
		
00:25:35 --> 00:25:36
			even need
		
00:25:40 --> 00:25:41
			All the time?
		
00:25:41 --> 00:25:43
			So we mentioned salat on time.
		
00:25:43 --> 00:25:45
			We mentioned siyam, fasting.
		
00:25:45 --> 00:25:46
			We mentioned
		
00:25:47 --> 00:25:48
			zikr of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala.
		
00:25:53 --> 00:25:55
			Some of us are going to Hajj this
		
00:25:55 --> 00:25:56
			year, which is the best Tamil
		
00:25:57 --> 00:25:58
			ever to be done in these 10 days.
		
00:25:58 --> 00:26:00
			But some of us cannot go for one
		
00:26:00 --> 00:26:02
			reason or another. They cannot afford it financially.
		
00:26:03 --> 00:26:05
			Some people cannot afford it physically, and they
		
00:26:05 --> 00:26:06
			could not go.
		
00:26:11 --> 00:26:13
			I could not go to Hajj, but I
		
00:26:13 --> 00:26:15
			can get the of Hajj.
		
00:26:17 --> 00:26:19
			We've been practicing this sunnah and this masjid
		
00:26:19 --> 00:26:20
			every Sunday.
		
00:26:20 --> 00:26:21
			Every Sunday,
		
00:26:22 --> 00:26:23
			we sit down, we pray
		
00:26:24 --> 00:26:26
			We have a small and we stay and
		
00:26:26 --> 00:26:28
			we pray 2 raka. Rasulullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam
		
00:26:28 --> 00:26:29
			said
		
00:26:30 --> 00:26:31
			First condition.
		
00:26:32 --> 00:26:34
			My brothers, you pray in
		
00:26:35 --> 00:26:37
			2nd, you stay in the same masjid,
		
00:26:37 --> 00:26:39
			in the same place. You can move in
		
00:26:39 --> 00:26:41
			the masjid but the same masjid.
		
00:26:41 --> 00:26:45
			3rd, remembering Allah. Whether it's a reading Quran,
		
00:26:45 --> 00:26:45
			making
		
00:26:47 --> 00:26:49
			remembering Allah. 4th, you wait till the sun
		
00:26:49 --> 00:26:51
			to rise. After that, at that specific time
		
00:26:51 --> 00:26:54
			it's to pray. So you wait 10, 15
		
00:26:54 --> 00:26:56
			minutes after that and you pray 2 raka.
		
00:26:56 --> 00:26:56
			What
		
00:26:57 --> 00:26:58
			happened? Hajj
		
00:26:58 --> 00:26:58
			and
		
00:27:01 --> 00:27:01
			umrah.
		
00:27:06 --> 00:27:08
			The reward of Hajj and Umrah without spending
		
00:27:09 --> 00:27:11
			leaving your your family, without leaving your your
		
00:27:11 --> 00:27:14
			town, without leaving anything. Hajj and Umrah.
		
00:27:15 --> 00:27:17
			Why don't I have 9 Hajj?
		
00:27:18 --> 00:27:20
			9 Hajj these days.
		
00:27:21 --> 00:27:21
			Look,
		
00:27:22 --> 00:27:23
			aim high. Aim high.
		
00:27:24 --> 00:27:25
			If it was told to us, if you
		
00:27:28 --> 00:27:30
			stay till shuruq, honestly, between you and me
		
00:27:30 --> 00:27:32
			and the people who are watching.
		
00:27:34 --> 00:27:35
			I'm not gonna tell anybody.
		
00:27:36 --> 00:27:37
			But if it was told to us, if
		
00:27:37 --> 00:27:39
			you stay to every single day and you
		
00:27:39 --> 00:27:40
			pray to raka,
		
00:27:41 --> 00:27:41
			$5,000,
		
00:27:45 --> 00:27:47
			You would call your family overseas,
		
00:27:47 --> 00:27:49
			make sure I'll come this 10 days. Plane
		
00:27:49 --> 00:27:50
			was giving $5,000
		
00:27:52 --> 00:27:54
			Everybody will tell everybody come.
		
00:27:55 --> 00:27:56
			Giving $5,000
		
00:27:56 --> 00:27:56
			in
		
00:27:58 --> 00:27:59
			epic. But when you say
		
00:28:00 --> 00:28:01
			brother, it's okay
		
00:28:01 --> 00:28:02
			next year.
		
00:28:05 --> 00:28:07
			Are you taking the $5,000 with you? No.
		
00:28:07 --> 00:28:09
			But you're taking Hajj al Umrah with you.
		
00:28:09 --> 00:28:10
			Right?
		
00:28:11 --> 00:28:11
			So
		
00:28:12 --> 00:28:13
			let's aim high. Be
		
00:28:21 --> 00:28:22
			inshallah,
		
00:28:22 --> 00:28:23
			anybody would like to join,
		
00:28:24 --> 00:28:26
			We're gonna finish the Quran in these 10
		
00:28:26 --> 00:28:26
			days.
		
00:28:27 --> 00:28:29
			Who's with me
		
00:28:29 --> 00:28:30
			in reading?
		
00:28:30 --> 00:28:32
			10 days, 3 jizzur a day.
		
00:28:33 --> 00:28:34
			I would check up on you. Raise your
		
00:28:34 --> 00:28:36
			hand. Who would like to go with me?
		
00:28:48 --> 00:28:49
			A day.
		
00:28:49 --> 00:28:51
			You sit down after fashr, we're gonna sit
		
00:28:51 --> 00:28:54
			for anyway. Right? So we read 2, 3
		
00:28:56 --> 00:28:56
			every
		
00:28:57 --> 00:28:58
			letter every letter
		
00:28:59 --> 00:29:02
			And this is in regular days, not in
		
00:29:02 --> 00:29:04
			the days that there are the most beloved
		
00:29:04 --> 00:29:07
			to allah, what is the multiplication on that
		
00:29:07 --> 00:29:08
			day? It's only known
		
00:29:08 --> 00:29:11
			to the raheem. And for the sisters, I
		
00:29:11 --> 00:29:12
			don't want the sisters to think that we
		
00:29:12 --> 00:29:13
			will not get the.
		
00:29:14 --> 00:29:16
			One of our was asked,
		
00:29:16 --> 00:29:19
			and Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala is all. He's
		
00:29:19 --> 00:29:21
			the just. He said, the sister, same thing
		
00:29:22 --> 00:29:24
			She will get the reward. She gets up
		
00:29:24 --> 00:29:27
			and the sister is supposed to have a
		
00:29:27 --> 00:29:29
			in her home, right? Have her own place
		
00:29:29 --> 00:29:31
			at home. This is why she prays all
		
00:29:31 --> 00:29:32
			the time. So if your sister gets up
		
00:29:32 --> 00:29:34
			for fajr and she stays in her
		
00:29:35 --> 00:29:37
			remembering Allah till shuru and she prays to
		
00:29:37 --> 00:29:39
			rakah, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala did not make
		
00:29:39 --> 00:29:42
			this only for the men. No.
		
00:29:46 --> 00:29:47
			Male or female.
		
00:29:48 --> 00:29:50
			Sister will get the same same reward.
		
00:29:51 --> 00:29:52
			Now
		
00:29:53 --> 00:29:54
			we come to a very
		
00:29:58 --> 00:29:59
			a
		
00:30:05 --> 00:30:07
			We all know the virtue of charity.
		
00:30:13 --> 00:30:15
			Our brothers and sisters are suffering all over
		
00:30:15 --> 00:30:17
			the world, and we all know that. And
		
00:30:17 --> 00:30:17
			I'm sure
		
00:30:18 --> 00:30:20
			sure if you're like me, you have a
		
00:30:20 --> 00:30:22
			member of your family overseas that is
		
00:30:23 --> 00:30:24
			miskeen
		
00:30:24 --> 00:30:25
			or a faqiyyah. Right?
		
00:30:27 --> 00:30:28
			Who doesn't have that?
		
00:30:30 --> 00:30:33
			Our our our countries are are boiling.
		
00:30:34 --> 00:30:35
			How beautiful it is
		
00:30:36 --> 00:30:38
			to send them something in these 10 days
		
00:30:39 --> 00:30:41
			so they can, just like you,
		
00:30:42 --> 00:30:44
			are happy and looking forward for the Eid,
		
00:30:44 --> 00:30:46
			they will also be looking forward for the
		
00:30:46 --> 00:30:47
			Eid. My cousin
		
00:30:49 --> 00:30:51
			in Texas, he send me 500 dollars. May
		
00:30:51 --> 00:30:53
			Allah reward him. May Allah bless him. May
		
00:30:53 --> 00:30:56
			Allah, Allahu Akbar. Such a beautiful dua they're
		
00:30:56 --> 00:30:57
			making for you in these 10 days.
		
00:30:58 --> 00:31:01
			And that 2, 300, whatever you can afford,
		
00:31:01 --> 00:31:03
			it's not gonna bother you at all
		
00:31:03 --> 00:31:05
			at all. If you go outside right now
		
00:31:05 --> 00:31:07
			and you see the kids while they're praying,
		
00:31:07 --> 00:31:10
			they shatter your your your windshield.
		
00:31:11 --> 00:31:13
			The 300 dolls come from nowhere.
		
00:31:16 --> 00:31:18
			The car did not start tomorrow, new battery,
		
00:31:18 --> 00:31:20
			new starter, 34100 comes.
		
00:31:20 --> 00:31:22
			But when we say send to your brother,
		
00:31:23 --> 00:31:24
			help your sister, help an orphan,
		
00:31:36 --> 00:31:37
			kinds of stuff. The is
		
00:31:40 --> 00:31:40
			the only
		
00:31:41 --> 00:31:42
			thing that, you know,
		
00:31:42 --> 00:31:44
			you deposit here and you withdraw in the
		
00:31:44 --> 00:31:45
			akhirah.
		
00:31:45 --> 00:31:48
			Such a great, great, great. The only that
		
00:31:48 --> 00:31:50
			you will take with you is your that
		
00:31:50 --> 00:31:51
			you gave. The rest of the money is
		
00:31:51 --> 00:31:53
			gonna stay and we're gonna be wasted by
		
00:31:53 --> 00:31:53
			your children.
		
00:31:55 --> 00:31:57
			This, I'm investing
		
00:31:58 --> 00:31:59
			now for the akhirah.
		
00:31:59 --> 00:32:02
			Find a family. You know, the aid comes
		
00:32:02 --> 00:32:04
			and some of our family members do not
		
00:32:04 --> 00:32:06
			have new clothes, do not even have food
		
00:32:06 --> 00:32:08
			to eat. So
		
00:32:08 --> 00:32:10
			when I send that 50, $100, whatever it
		
00:32:10 --> 00:32:11
			is, whatever you can afford,
		
00:32:14 --> 00:32:15
			Whatever you can afford.
		
00:32:15 --> 00:32:18
			But don't let these days And let's say,
		
00:32:18 --> 00:32:19
			let's assume you wanna give
		
00:32:20 --> 00:32:20
			$500.
		
00:32:22 --> 00:32:24
			Divide it on on 9 days
		
00:32:25 --> 00:32:26
			so you will be giving
		
00:32:27 --> 00:32:28
			a every single day.
		
00:32:30 --> 00:32:32
			Every single day a on your way out
		
00:32:32 --> 00:32:33
			at the masjid,
		
00:32:34 --> 00:32:34
			dollars.
		
00:32:35 --> 00:32:37
			Don't let a day pass by without giving
		
00:32:37 --> 00:32:38
			a a
		
00:32:39 --> 00:32:41
			dollar, whatever you can, with the intention that
		
00:32:41 --> 00:32:43
			reward is not by the amount.
		
00:32:44 --> 00:32:45
			The reward is by the intention.
		
00:32:46 --> 00:32:48
			Allah knows that I can't afford what you
		
00:32:48 --> 00:32:50
			can afford and he can't afford what she
		
00:32:50 --> 00:32:53
			can afford. Allah knows but Allah wants to
		
00:32:53 --> 00:32:56
			know Allah knows that you are trying your
		
00:32:56 --> 00:32:58
			best to please him. This is what matters.
		
00:32:59 --> 00:33:01
			This is what matters. So whatever you can
		
00:33:01 --> 00:33:01
			afford.
		
00:33:03 --> 00:33:05
			I know brothers that send the money
		
00:33:05 --> 00:33:08
			overseas already and they told their family, please
		
00:33:08 --> 00:33:10
			don't give it now. Wait.
		
00:33:10 --> 00:33:12
			Wait till the 10th of the and then
		
00:33:12 --> 00:33:13
			you give
		
00:33:14 --> 00:33:16
			it. Because they're investing.
		
00:33:17 --> 00:33:18
			Great investment
		
00:33:18 --> 00:33:19
			with
		
00:33:20 --> 00:33:21
			Allah And the last one just because of
		
00:33:21 --> 00:33:22
			the time,
		
00:33:24 --> 00:33:26
			because the the the hadith is open.
		
00:33:27 --> 00:33:29
			Any I'm just reminding you and reminding myself
		
00:33:29 --> 00:33:30
			of some of the but
		
00:33:31 --> 00:33:32
			any
		
00:33:32 --> 00:33:34
			my young brothers in the
		
00:33:34 --> 00:33:37
			crowd, saying yes to your father, helping your
		
00:33:37 --> 00:33:38
			mother at home.
		
00:33:39 --> 00:33:40
			This is
		
00:33:41 --> 00:33:42
			being obedient to your
		
00:33:44 --> 00:33:45
			parents. This is You'll be rewarded immensely for
		
00:33:45 --> 00:33:46
			it.
		
00:33:47 --> 00:33:49
			Any kind of obedience to the parents is
		
00:33:50 --> 00:33:51
			Smiling in your
		
00:33:53 --> 00:33:55
			brother's face is So the last is one
		
00:33:55 --> 00:33:57
			of probably one of the best.
		
00:33:57 --> 00:33:58
			And now especially
		
00:33:59 --> 00:34:01
			with the days being
		
00:34:03 --> 00:34:03
			shorter,
		
00:34:11 --> 00:34:12
			When does
		
00:34:13 --> 00:34:13
			start?
		
00:34:15 --> 00:34:16
			Start after Isha.
		
00:34:17 --> 00:34:18
			You finished your Isha.
		
00:34:19 --> 00:34:21
			You finished of Isha.
		
00:34:21 --> 00:34:23
			Then after that, you decided I wanna pray
		
00:34:23 --> 00:34:24
			2.
		
00:34:24 --> 00:34:26
			Is that considered? Yes.
		
00:34:27 --> 00:34:29
			Is in now.
		
00:34:30 --> 00:34:32
			You finished all your duties, now you wanna
		
00:34:32 --> 00:34:32
			pray.
		
00:34:33 --> 00:34:33
			The best
		
00:34:34 --> 00:34:36
			is the last part of the night which
		
00:34:36 --> 00:34:36
			is
		
00:34:38 --> 00:34:39
			before
		
00:34:40 --> 00:34:41
			before
		
00:34:41 --> 00:34:43
			let's say 5:35,
		
00:34:43 --> 00:34:44
			whatever.
		
00:34:45 --> 00:34:46
			5:15,
		
00:34:47 --> 00:34:48
			5 o'clock,
		
00:34:48 --> 00:34:50
			I get up and I pray 2 raka,
		
00:34:51 --> 00:34:52
			4 raka,
		
00:34:52 --> 00:34:53
			whatever you can
		
00:34:54 --> 00:34:57
			handle. Keep in mind, every amil is multiplied
		
00:34:57 --> 00:34:58
			in these days.
		
00:35:00 --> 00:35:02
			There are brothers amongst us here. I know
		
00:35:02 --> 00:35:03
			they don't want me to name them. They
		
00:35:03 --> 00:35:06
			get up every single night with 1 juzuk.
		
00:35:08 --> 00:35:09
			Wake up brother.
		
00:35:09 --> 00:35:11
			There are people next to you. They are
		
00:35:11 --> 00:35:12
			dealing with Allah.
		
00:35:13 --> 00:35:14
			They're making tijarah.
		
00:35:16 --> 00:35:17
			One juzah a night.
		
00:35:17 --> 00:35:20
			They get up with 1 juzah every single
		
00:35:20 --> 00:35:22
			night, 1 hour, 1 hour and a half.
		
00:35:23 --> 00:35:25
			Why not me? They're not better than me.
		
00:35:25 --> 00:35:27
			They're not better than me.
		
00:35:27 --> 00:35:29
			This is what we should race and compete
		
00:35:29 --> 00:35:30
			and and
		
00:35:32 --> 00:35:34
			and and to Allah. You're making 1 hour.
		
00:35:34 --> 00:35:36
			I'm gonna get up 1 hour and a
		
00:35:36 --> 00:35:36
			half.
		
00:35:37 --> 00:35:38
			This is the way to Allah Subhanahu Wa
		
00:35:38 --> 00:35:39
			Ta'ala.
		
00:35:44 --> 00:35:45
			I don't know if I'm gonna make it
		
00:35:45 --> 00:35:47
			another day or not or so. I was
		
00:35:47 --> 00:35:48
			talking to a brother yesterday,
		
00:35:50 --> 00:35:51
			and he,
		
00:35:52 --> 00:35:54
			we know each other for 20 years.
		
00:36:02 --> 00:36:04
			Him, well, I'm gonna turn 50 next month.
		
00:36:04 --> 00:36:06
			I know exactly when is your birthday.
		
00:36:07 --> 00:36:08
			And brother, you remember
		
00:36:09 --> 00:36:11
			20 years ago when you see when you
		
00:36:11 --> 00:36:12
			used to see a guy who's 50 years
		
00:36:12 --> 00:36:13
			old, we used to say,
		
00:36:14 --> 00:36:16
			that guy is gone 50 years.
		
00:36:16 --> 00:36:18
			He's he's dead. When he used to be
		
00:36:18 --> 00:36:21
			kids, right? Like 9, 10 years old, and
		
00:36:21 --> 00:36:22
			you see somebody 50, 55,
		
00:36:23 --> 00:36:24
			finish.
		
00:36:25 --> 00:36:27
			Now when we become 50, we talk about
		
00:36:27 --> 00:36:28
			the guys who are 90.
		
00:36:28 --> 00:36:29
			Oh.
		
00:36:29 --> 00:36:30
			SubhanAllah.
		
00:36:30 --> 00:36:32
			So days are going by so fast,
		
00:36:33 --> 00:36:33
			so fast.
		
00:36:35 --> 00:36:37
			I have no no clue. I want to
		
00:36:37 --> 00:36:39
			accumulate as much as I can.
		
00:36:40 --> 00:36:40
			Now,
		
00:36:41 --> 00:36:43
			we are healthy. We are we can move.
		
00:36:43 --> 00:36:45
			We can do things. Let's take advantage.
		
00:36:47 --> 00:36:49
			I mentioned the story before. I will mention
		
00:36:49 --> 00:36:50
			it again. SubhanAllah. Zubaydah,
		
00:36:51 --> 00:36:51
			the wife
		
00:36:54 --> 00:36:55
			of Harun Rashid. Zubaydah, the wife of Harun
		
00:36:55 --> 00:36:57
			Rashid, she made
		
00:36:57 --> 00:36:58
			She made
		
00:37:05 --> 00:37:06
			the people
		
00:37:13 --> 00:37:15
			in Mina. And we all know that Rasool
		
00:37:15 --> 00:37:17
			alaihi wasallam said, the best you could ever
		
00:37:17 --> 00:37:18
			give is
		
00:37:19 --> 00:37:19
			water.
		
00:37:20 --> 00:37:21
			So
		
00:37:22 --> 00:37:24
			she providing water provided water not to everybody,
		
00:37:24 --> 00:37:24
			to the
		
00:37:27 --> 00:37:28
			huge reward. Huge.
		
00:37:29 --> 00:37:30
			So she died.
		
00:37:31 --> 00:37:33
			Somebody saw her in a dream.
		
00:37:37 --> 00:37:38
			What happened to you
		
00:37:38 --> 00:37:39
			She said,
		
00:37:40 --> 00:37:42
			I'm in the highest place in general. So
		
00:37:42 --> 00:37:43
			the person who saw in the dream, he
		
00:37:43 --> 00:37:45
			said, is it because of that water you
		
00:37:45 --> 00:37:46
			did in? She said,
		
00:37:47 --> 00:37:48
			no, there's nothing.
		
00:37:54 --> 00:37:57
			It was those 2 short I used to
		
00:37:57 --> 00:37:58
			make in the middle of the night.
		
00:38:00 --> 00:38:01
			2 in the middle of the night.
		
00:38:02 --> 00:38:03
			Not
		
00:38:04 --> 00:38:05
			small, quick. 2
		
00:38:05 --> 00:38:07
			rakas. Because like,
		
00:38:08 --> 00:38:10
			he left Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala, one of
		
00:38:10 --> 00:38:12
			the hadith, he said, he left the comfort
		
00:38:12 --> 00:38:14
			of his bed, the beauty of his wife,
		
00:38:14 --> 00:38:15
			and he got up
		
00:38:15 --> 00:38:16
			to pray for me.
		
00:38:18 --> 00:38:20
			So this does not go to waste.
		
00:38:22 --> 00:38:24
			Either before before you sleep
		
00:38:24 --> 00:38:25
			or when you get up before
		
00:38:27 --> 00:38:29
			and in your sujood, ask Allah
		
00:38:29 --> 00:38:31
			whatever you want. After you make your salaam,
		
00:38:31 --> 00:38:34
			raise your hands. This is when Allah descends
		
00:38:34 --> 00:38:35
			to the first heaven in a way that
		
00:38:35 --> 00:38:38
			befits his majesty. And he's asking, what do
		
00:38:38 --> 00:38:39
			you want so I can give you? What
		
00:38:39 --> 00:38:41
			do you want, You want You
		
00:38:41 --> 00:38:42
			want Jannah.
		
00:38:43 --> 00:38:43
			You want,
		
00:38:44 --> 00:38:47
			righteous children. You want a good husband.
		
00:38:47 --> 00:38:48
			You want money.
		
00:38:48 --> 00:38:49
			You want forgiveness.
		
00:38:50 --> 00:38:52
			What do you want? Allah is asking. And
		
00:38:52 --> 00:38:53
			me and you are snoring.
		
00:38:56 --> 00:38:58
			Snoring. And then he asked the brother, oh,
		
00:38:58 --> 00:39:01
			I'm having so much problems, so many problems
		
00:39:01 --> 00:39:02
			with my wife, so many problems with my
		
00:39:02 --> 00:39:04
			with my husband, so many problems with my
		
00:39:04 --> 00:39:06
			children. Yeah. He get up in the middle
		
00:39:06 --> 00:39:07
			of the night and ask Allah,
		
00:39:09 --> 00:39:11
			is there anything else, brother?
		
00:39:12 --> 00:39:13
			Yeah, Allah.
		
00:39:15 --> 00:39:17
			We want solutions and we don't wanna do
		
00:39:17 --> 00:39:17
			anything.
		
00:39:17 --> 00:39:19
			And he's he told us, alayhis salatu wa
		
00:39:19 --> 00:39:21
			sallam, he told us the solution. Allah is
		
00:39:21 --> 00:39:24
			asking, what do you want? Can you imagine
		
00:39:24 --> 00:39:26
			somebody say, come to the masjid at 4
		
00:39:26 --> 00:39:29
			o'clock in the morning and there will be
		
00:39:29 --> 00:39:30
			here a guy who
		
00:39:31 --> 00:39:31
			has $50,000,000,000
		
00:39:32 --> 00:39:34
			and he's gonna ask you, what do you
		
00:39:34 --> 00:39:34
			want?
		
00:39:38 --> 00:39:39
			We'll be here at 3 o'clock just to
		
00:39:39 --> 00:39:40
			be on the safe side, maybe there's no
		
00:39:40 --> 00:39:41
			space.
		
00:39:48 --> 00:39:50
			Is saying, what do you want?
		
00:39:51 --> 00:39:53
			Let him see you at that time raising
		
00:39:53 --> 00:39:53
			your hands,
		
00:39:55 --> 00:39:56
			my wife,
		
00:39:57 --> 00:39:58
			my
		
00:40:01 --> 00:40:02
			children. Cry.
		
00:40:03 --> 00:40:05
			We want stuff and we don't wanna do
		
00:40:05 --> 00:40:05
			anything.
		
00:40:06 --> 00:40:08
			We want so many huge list every one
		
00:40:08 --> 00:40:10
			of us have. Yeah. He get up. He's
		
00:40:10 --> 00:40:11
			asking,
		
00:40:11 --> 00:40:14
			the Rahim, the Rahman, the Kawi, the Abim
		
00:40:14 --> 00:40:15
			is asking.
		
00:40:16 --> 00:40:17
			And we have so many
		
00:40:19 --> 00:40:21
			needs. Let him see you at that time
		
00:40:21 --> 00:40:22
			raising your hands or let him see you
		
00:40:22 --> 00:40:24
			with your head on the ground and the
		
00:40:24 --> 00:40:26
			tears are wetting just like the
		
00:40:26 --> 00:40:27
			just like
		
00:40:28 --> 00:40:29
			our just like our
		
00:40:30 --> 00:40:31
			The place of sujood used to be so
		
00:40:31 --> 00:40:33
			wet. The wife of
		
00:40:33 --> 00:40:35
			the of the Ozai, remember Ozai,
		
00:40:36 --> 00:40:37
			a
		
00:40:37 --> 00:40:38
			woman came
		
00:40:38 --> 00:40:39
			to visit her.
		
00:40:40 --> 00:40:42
			And she while she was walking in her
		
00:40:42 --> 00:40:44
			room, she stepped on something wet. She told
		
00:40:44 --> 00:40:44
			her,
		
00:40:45 --> 00:40:48
			Somebody, maybe one of the children here have,
		
00:40:48 --> 00:40:49
			you know, urinated in your husband's
		
00:40:50 --> 00:40:51
			when he prays.
		
00:40:51 --> 00:40:52
			She said,
		
00:40:52 --> 00:40:54
			this is not urine.
		
00:40:54 --> 00:40:55
			This is his
		
00:40:55 --> 00:40:57
			tears from the night.
		
00:40:58 --> 00:40:58
			This is his tears. This is his tears
		
00:40:58 --> 00:40:59
			from the night. Like I always remind myself
		
00:40:59 --> 00:41:01
			and I remind you, tears from the night.
		
00:41:02 --> 00:41:04
			Like I always remind myself and I remind
		
00:41:04 --> 00:41:05
			you.
		
00:41:06 --> 00:41:08
			When is the last time you cried?
		
00:41:10 --> 00:41:11
			When is last time you
		
00:41:14 --> 00:41:15
			cried?
		
00:41:19 --> 00:41:21
			Came and fooled us and we thought that
		
00:41:21 --> 00:41:22
			jannah
		
00:41:23 --> 00:41:23
			is in my pocket.
		
00:41:25 --> 00:41:25
			Right?
		
00:41:26 --> 00:41:28
			Every time we imagine jannah, I see myself.
		
00:41:28 --> 00:41:30
			And every time I close my eyes and
		
00:41:30 --> 00:41:33
			imagine *, I see everybody I know that
		
00:41:33 --> 00:41:35
			sin but I never see myself. I am
		
00:41:35 --> 00:41:37
			No me, no for me.
		
00:41:38 --> 00:41:40
			Guarantee, Jannah is in my pocket. I pray
		
00:41:40 --> 00:41:41
			fajr in Jannah. I'm done.
		
00:41:42 --> 00:41:43
			I gave $1,000
		
00:41:43 --> 00:41:46
			to Epic last week. Finish. Jannah is guaranteed.
		
00:41:50 --> 00:41:52
			Please, a lot of people, a lot of
		
00:41:52 --> 00:41:54
			people do not know the weight of these
		
00:41:54 --> 00:41:54
			10 days.

00:43:08 --> 00:43:11
			keep us alive to witness these days, and
		
00:43:11 --> 00:43:11
			may Allah
		
00:43:12 --> 00:43:14
