Then Allah Subhana Allah says, Rafa some half or so well, he
raised the heights of the heavens was an fossa, and he proportioned
it and made it perfect as we said in previous tours that we've read
Allah says Look, do you find any defects in the in the in the
heavens? Do you find any any cracks, any cleavages any things
sagging of the skies? No. Do you see any pillars holding them up?
No. So Allah subhanaw taala is telling us look at the flawless
creation, the perfect order and proportion of Allah's creation.
And he says, well after Shalala, Accra Jaga, ha ha and then Allah
SWOT analysis and he covers the night with darkness he brings the
night and then he brings the day with brightness. He's telling us
this creation ponder this is not just happening random while or the
by the Delica ha ha and then Allah has spread out the earth that is
not just made of, you know, rocks and and mountains and ridges as we
said before unless flattened it out. So we can travel and we can
earn a living we can see the earth and we mentioned this in previous
sutras. So Allah has spread out this earth for us.
After Raja minha ma, ma, ma, and and Isn't he the one who brought
out the water from deserts? I mean, they're looking all over the
universe and planets and Mars where his water where his water
who brought out the water unless one man who brought out this water
and the Murrah the, the vegetation, the vegetables, the
fruits, the trees, all the foliage, who Allah subhanaw taala
is asking a question again, telling us that all everything
while Jabba Allah Azza and then he fixed and these mountains as pegs
to stabilize the earth as it spins around so it doesn't vibrate you
know? counterbalancing so Allah smart Allah is telling us that I
have done all of this.
You still doubt that I cannot I created you from nothing I cannot
create it create you from dead bones and decayed bones is that so
difficult to imagine? So Allah subhanaw taala is appealing to the
intellect to think logically.
And then he says all of this I created Matala, camaleon amicon
For your enjoyment as a provision for you as your sustenance for you
and your cattle.
Animals that you have all of this I created for you.
Then Allah subhanaw taala after reminding us this in the next
eight ayat, Allah subhanaw taala goes back to again, the importance
of what the whole surah is about the PM. So Allah subhanaw taala
then goes back to the next
for either job, or material Cobra. Now again, the rhythm changes. yo
maya karoun In Santa new masa Babu resulting in Jahai Mooli mining
era fam man mammals toggle for Arthur L Hayato. duniya for in
Alger thema. Here
where am men Harpham upon my rugby when Neff sign in for in Janata
here
so Allah subhanaw taala now goes back to the events of the Tiama he
says for either Jha or Tom Mattoon Cobra, when there comes that Cobra
The great calamity he's talking about the Day of Judgment. This is
huge. This is nothing that we can even imagine. We believe in it. We
hear about it, we get scared about it. Then Allah subhanaw taala said
Yo Mama yet the duck girl in Santa masa on that day, every man will
remember what effort they made, what they were running after, what
effort, what they strove, what was the goal of their life. Now on
that day,
we will remember Can we change it them?
No,
it cannot be changed, okay.
Because now has come the time for recompense. The time for action
has ended.
What better is that till Jehoiakim Lima era, Allah subhanaw taala
says and the Hellfire will be displayed openly for people
whoever can see will see it and it will be a scary sight will be a
scary sight even the believers will see it and even the believers
have to cross over the bridge. So there is no escape from that
Hellfire that Allah has warned us about that the Hellfire will be
seen by everyone. Now Allah smart Allah describes two categories of
people
For a moment of ah the same word for the one who did to be on who
rebelled who transgressed for a moment taba and what was the sign
of that rebellion? Please listen to this carefully. Well Arthur L
HYAH dunya artha means give preference to the life of destiny
he did not deny the Alpha did not deny the Alpha but gave preference
to the dunya This is what Allah is calling Tolkien
Arthur L hired to do now this was the idea that affected me the most
last one I'll say
because I have to look at my life where am I giving preference to
for in nature Hamer here the Jehane which is one of the names
of the Hellfire is the abode of this person
person who preferred the dunya all of his effort preference means
majority of his effort was made for achievements of the dunya
then Allah subhanaw taala gives the mirror opposite pitch
what a man man haha my Palma rugby and as for the one who was always
afraid of standing in front of his law means he believed it was a
reality that I will stand in front of my rub. When a hand NAFSA an
inhaler, and he denied his restraint, his knifes his Lord
desires impure, his loss, and his unlawful inclinations, which was
disobedience. He suppressed them, even though he was tempted, He
suppressed them.
What about this person, for in Jannah, to heal, the Paradise is
the abode of this person.
What is characteristic he was always afraid. One day, I will
stand in front of Allah, it was a reality for him and therefore he
led his life according to that.
And he suppressed he had desires like everybody else, he saw others
enjoying life. In doing things that allowed forbidden, he felt
tempted, but he says no, I will have sub because I have something
greater coming.
Paradise will certainly be there aboard. And then the last five
verses of this
surah
is a direct address to the Koresh because the police were asking
questions of the Rasulullah sallallahu so not because they
wanted to know the truth, but just as ridicule. So Allah subhanaw
taala says
yes, aloo Nica Anissa a Jana Musa FEMA and Amin de gras Ihlara
becoming Taha in Nama and Moon the romaine Yaksha unknown yo mama,
yeah, no, no. Let me yell back to her she can do
that ends the surah
Yes, Aluna can they? The Kadesh ask you your Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi salam Anissa about this. Last, the PSA the bringing up the
Day of Judgment.
Or Jana was when will it come? This is
so you said this is also when it when is it? And then Allah
subhanaw taala responds by not saying anything he says FEMA
anthem in Decra
say you Rasul Allah salAllahu Alaihe Salam have no knowledge of
it. You have no way of responding to them. Why? Even Rasul Allah
Salah listen does not have knowledge for Allah, Rob pika
monta ha ha. It is only to your Lord belongs that knowledge and
its finality. If we remember in that famous hadith of, of Gibreel,
Allah Salam, one of the questions Gibreel, Allah Salam, in the end
asked after asking about what is Islam? What is Iman he asked, When
is when is when is the PSA, the Day of Judgment? And what is the
response of Rasulullah salAllahu alayhi salam to that? He says the
one who is questioning does not move more than the one who is
answering in other words, I don't know. And you Gibreel don't,
because only Allah knows last month Allah saying, what have you
to do with this ends? And if you remember many times, the people
used to come the Bedouins to Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam they
were innocent they used to when is the day of judgment. And his
response was, what have you prepared for? That's the important
what have you prepared doesn't matter where it is? Because for
most of us, when will the Day of Judgment, start with our debts
which is a little fear.
Even if it comes after 10,000 years, our book closes without
let's prepare for
have
you locked up the common Taha it's only to your Lord that that
knowledge belongs in Nama and Monza Oh, my Yorkshire I knew or
messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, your job is only to warn
them.
You're an idiot.
We talked about that. You are a warning for those minor Yaksha who
have fear of
who will listen.
And to whom your Morona because on the day that they see that the Day
of Judgment
lum yellow bathroom, Illa Shiota Nava, it will seem to them their
whole life on this earth that they had, whether it was 60 years, 100
years, 40 years, it will seem to them like
one evening, one day, that's how short this life I'm saying.
Because we are comparing finite, even if you live 900 years on mine
and 50 years like no Alesana compared to infinity, zero.
It will see like that, right now they're enjoying that thing. Oh,
you know, but when they see that, that whole life, our life, it
seemed like a blink of an eye.
So
the whole life is a very brief sojourn, as we said, before, we
are on a tourist visa. We came from Ghana, and that's our
destination, we go back there, Inshallah, we are here for a short
period of time. But this short life will determine our eternal
life that's coming.
So we should not lose focus of that horse was focusing that look,
there is an eternal life coming look, there are angels who will
take your soul Look, there is a day of judgment. Look, don't be
fooled by the power of people like surround, even they came to an
end. And then the eternal life will start and is determined by
what you did here.
So just
as we sit at the end of each Surah, and we still have 1015
minutes left here. What are the lessons that we learn? How does it
apply to me? And again, these lessons are just something that I
have derived from it. And you can derive many more lessons if you
sit and reflect. And I'm sure you you have, but some of what I've
derived number one is that death is real.
And it is inevitable, no matter what you do. And this is not about
you know, depression, depression because it's a reality. It's it's
a stage it's not an end. It's it's a gate that we passed.
Just like we came into this earth we will leave this earth to the
next life the preserve and then the aka the real life that comes
and only Allah subhanaw taala has determined how long we are going
to be here. Because Allah subhanaw taala says in Surah Lachman Mata
did enough to murder a taxi Bogota. Mata did enough soon be a
year into mode that no soul knows what is going to earn tomorrow and
no soul knows where on earth it is going to die. When it is going.
In Aloha Lehmann hubby. Indeed, Allah is the One who is the all
law and all the way
to this is a fact we have to know. And therefore, we come to the
Hadith of the prophets, Allah not us. One day Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi salam to this young companion, the son of, of Omar ibn
Al Khattab Sayidina, Omar Abdullah photogra, the Allah Han, his son,
Abdullah, Muhammad, the famous companion, who is known for many
things, but what he is most known for that he would imitate
Rasulullah Salallahu Salam in every detail. So one day Rasul
Allah salAllahu Alaihe Salam grabs him by the shoulder just like
this.
And he says to him,
couldn't fit dunya Anika very or Arbor Sami be in this dunya in
this world. Like you're a stranger. You don't belong here,
tourist visa
or
arborescent. Bill, you're a traveler.
Treat this world like that. This is not your permanent residence.
Then abdulai normal added his own to it. He said to the people who
inherited this hadith which is in Buhari, he said
if you see the evening
don't expect to be alive in the morning. You don't know. And if
you see the morning,
don't expect to be alive in the evening. He said take from your
health, for your sickness. In other words while you are healthy,
take advantage of that because when you're sick, you may not be
able to do what you want to do in terms of worshiping and setting up
your offer. And he said take from your life for your death. In other
words, you
Use your life in a way that when you die, it will be a value.
So, we have to prepare for that today without being depressed
about it. Because if we prepare for it properly, that no longer
becomes anything depressing it becomes something to look forward
to. And we're going to talk about that Hadith also hollyrock The
Allah Han Karim Allah who said that the hereafter the author is
traveling towards us through
and he says, and this life is traveling away from us. We're
leaving behind this dunya every day, every second every year, and
we're traveling to Accra is coming closer. So he said be children of
the Accra not the children of the dunya
because he said for today,
he said today is a day of action without accountability, Amal nor
Hassan but tomorrow will be no action. But accountability.
Once you die, you cannot do any more. You will then held
accountable today you can do and nobody's taking your account for
it. So he said lead your life according to
say the man with the Allah Allah said
Don't forget the angel of death because he does not forget you
