00:00:25
dhankhar. in Canton we have
00:00:28 -->
00:00:31
a lot of Mustang Masami Alka lube
in the creek,
00:00:33 -->
00:00:37
your law, open the hearing
channels of our hearts to your
00:00:37 -->
00:00:43
remembrance. And don't let our
hearts deviate from the truth

00:00:49
after you have guided us, your lie
increase us in useful L.
00:00:50 -->
00:00:55
That knowledge, that essential
knowledge which brings us closer

00:00:56

00:00:57 -->
00:01:03
and helps us in your obedience and
helps us in the etbr of Rasulullah
00:01:03 -->
00:01:05
sallallahu alayhi wa alayhi wa
sallam.
00:01:07 -->
00:01:13
So welcome back to all of our dear
brothers and sisters. After a
00:01:13 -->
00:01:20
hiatus of almost a month, I hope
some of you missed these sessions.
00:01:21 -->
00:01:28
Because once you get hooked on the
Quran, it is difficult to to leave
00:01:28 -->
00:01:28
it
00:01:29 -->
00:01:35
and so we should always be
attached to the Quran even when
00:01:35 -->
00:01:39
nothing else is going on in terms
of formal classes, for our own
00:01:39 -->
00:01:44
reading for our own reflection,
and I had sent out a message
00:01:44 -->
00:01:48
yesterday advising our dear
brothers and sisters to do some
00:01:48 -->
00:01:53
reading ahead of time, so that we
can participate and get the most
00:01:53 -->
00:01:54
out of this gathering.
00:01:55 -->
00:02:00
So inshallah we are going to
continue in our
00:02:01 -->
00:02:06
pursuit of learning together some
of the Macan Qur'an that was
00:02:06 -->
00:02:13
revealed in the early part of the
Naboo of Rasulullah sallallaahu
00:02:13 -->
00:02:20
Salam revealed in Makkah, before
the hijra, in a hostile
00:02:20 -->
00:02:24
environment where the Prophet
sallallaahu Salam and his handful
00:02:24 -->
00:02:29
of followers were being
persecuted, where they were being
00:02:29 -->
00:02:34
rejected and ridiculed and belied
and denied, and tortured and
00:02:34 -->
00:02:34
killed.
00:02:36 -->
00:02:42
And as you all know, and recall
that most of the Macan Qur'an
00:02:42 -->
00:02:47
deals with iman yet, with the
template of Allah subhanaw taala.
00:02:47 -->
00:02:51
With the Day of Judgment with the
result of Rasulullah Salallahu
00:02:51 -->
00:02:51
Salam
00:02:52 -->
00:02:57
talks about the Quran, talks about
previous nations talks about the
00:02:57 -->
00:03:01
Day of Judgment in Africa. So it's
the same themes that we're going
00:03:01 -->
00:03:05
to cover in the Surah number 88
That we are going to cover today,
00:03:06 -->
00:03:12
which is surah. In Chicago, it is
also called in sharp cut.
00:03:13 -->
00:03:14
Number 88.
00:03:16 -->
00:03:20
In sharp cut means something
that's that's torn apart or rent
00:03:20 -->
00:03:21
asunder.
00:03:22 -->
00:03:25
And this refers to comes from the
first idea
00:03:27 -->
00:03:30
referring to the sky. So, this is
the Meccan surah. And
00:03:32 -->
00:03:37
the themes in this surah are
closely related to the previous
00:03:37 -->
00:03:44
surah number 84 at the query
number 82, in fitter, and number
00:03:44 -->
00:03:50
78. Another, all of which we have
covered in previous sessions,
00:03:50 -->
00:03:54
dealing with the Day of Judgment,
then they follow the same pattern
00:03:54 -->
00:03:59
and it's closely knit and similar
to at segwayed, an innovator and
00:03:59 -->
00:04:03
also to the one before it which is
own McDuffie in which we have not
00:04:03 -->
00:04:06
covered which is surah number 83,
which Inshallah, perhaps the next
00:04:06 -->
00:04:11
one, we can cover and complete
this whole series of surah. So
00:04:11 -->
00:04:17
this surah, Allah subhanaw taala
has four segments in this the
00:04:17 -->
00:04:24
first five Iots of the surah. They
talk about the start of the day of
00:04:24 -->
00:04:30
judgment, the events, and the
startling events that will held,
00:04:31 -->
00:04:34
which will give an indication to
the people who are alive at that
00:04:34 -->
00:04:39
time, that this whole system is
being destroyed that Allah had
00:04:39 -->
00:04:43
created, that the laws of nature
as we know them are being
00:04:43 -->
00:04:48
violated. And it's going to be a
very scary and startling event
00:04:48 -->
00:04:53
because it's like, nothing that
humanity has ever seen or even
00:04:53 -->
00:04:57
imagined. Just imagine when a bad
earthquake comes or a volcano
00:04:57 -->
00:05:00
erupts. What kind of even if there
is any
00:05:00 -->
00:05:04
To fire in a house in a building,
what kind of chaos takes place?
00:05:04 -->
00:05:09
What kind of stampede takes place
in crowds? Just this, these, the
00:05:09 -->
00:05:12
events that Allah Samantha was
talking about is just
00:05:13 -->
00:05:19
unimaginable. So those are the
first five Iots that deal with the
00:05:19 -->
00:05:23
events of the day of judgment. And
then from Iowa number six to
00:05:24 -->
00:05:28
number 15, Allah subhanaw taala
talks about the journey of man
00:05:30 -->
00:05:34
through this life, what his life
is where he is heading to, goes
00:05:34 -->
00:05:38
into the Day of Judgment and what
is going to be the end result of
00:05:38 -->
00:05:43
that day of judgment. And then
from iron number 16, to 19, Allah
00:05:43 -->
00:05:48
subhanaw taala takes an oath and
calls our attention to some of his
00:05:48 -->
00:05:52
signs, the laws of Allah in
nature,
00:05:53 -->
00:05:58
to reflect upon them and to derive
conclusions from them about
00:06:00 -->
00:06:03
the hate of Allah subhanaw taala
about the truth of this message
00:06:04 -->
00:06:11
and to increase a scenario pain
and then the last few is from iron
00:06:11 -->
00:06:17
number 20 to 25 or an admonition,
a warning, a final warning, if you
00:06:17 -->
00:06:18
will a warning warning
00:06:25 -->
00:06:25
about
00:06:30 -->
00:06:34
the end and what the end of the
two groups is going to be.
00:06:37 -->
00:06:42
So, let us start with the
beginning. The first is Allah
00:06:42 -->
00:06:47
subhanaw taala says are older we
lay him in a shape on your rejean
00:06:48 -->
00:06:53
Bismillah AR Rahman man who
roughly is
00:06:56 -->
00:07:00
shocked caught, what are they not
let Rob be
00:07:01 -->
00:07:05
caught. So these are the first two
Hyatts Allah Subhana Allah says
00:07:05 -->
00:07:12
either and the word either means
when and this is a conditional
00:07:12 -->
00:07:18
phrase. Normally, when we say
either means when this happens,
00:07:18 -->
00:07:22
then there is a consequence of
Java means when this happens, then
00:07:22 -->
00:07:27
such and such thing will happen.
Okay, so Allah subhanaw taala is
00:07:27 -->
00:07:35
telling us that when the skies are
torn apart,
00:07:37 -->
00:07:41
Allah Subhana Allah is not saying
if the skies are torn apart.
00:07:42 -->
00:07:46
He's saying when they are torn
apart, in other words, there is a
00:07:46 -->
00:07:51
certainty there is an
inevitability that the skies were
00:07:51 -->
00:07:54
created to be torn apart.
00:07:57 -->
00:08:00
They are going this is something
that's going to happen. It's
00:08:00 -->
00:08:06
almost like in past tense. So,
Allah subhanaw taala does not give
00:08:06 -->
00:08:07
after this
00:08:08 -->
00:08:09
a
00:08:11 -->
00:08:17
the answer to that then what will
happen when this happens? Why,
00:08:18 -->
00:08:21
because it has already been
spelled out in the previous sutras
00:08:21 -->
00:08:25
that have come before, like the
two sewers we talked about Allah
00:08:25 -->
00:08:29
subhanaw taala say, if a Samara,
Confederate needle ko Accubond
00:08:30 -->
00:08:34
after then, I limit Neff some
koderma to
00:08:35 -->
00:08:39
then man will know what he has
brought forward and what he has
00:08:39 -->
00:08:45
left behind. In the other Surah it
says ulimate na sama Bharat men
00:08:45 -->
00:08:52
will know what he has presented,
where he is. So here Allah
00:08:52 -->
00:08:56
subhanaw taala has not mentioned
what will happen then because we
00:08:56 -->
00:08:58
already know we are familiar with
it.
00:08:59 -->
00:09:04
So Allah subhanaw taala says, When
the skies are torn apart,
00:09:08 -->
00:09:11
what are the net lira behalf? What
00:09:13 -->
00:09:18
are they not knot has two meanings
from Odin which is to hear when it
00:09:18 -->
00:09:24
hears and the other is 11 which
means permission of a command that
00:09:24 -->
00:09:25
when
00:09:26 -->
00:09:31
the skies the heavens that we see
we see the lowest heaven out of
00:09:31 -->
00:09:36
seven but when all of the seven
heavens heavens with everything
00:09:37 -->
00:09:44
that is within all the galaxies
all the creation the planets and
00:09:44 -->
00:09:49
that we don't know the black holes
everything is torn apart. It's a
00:09:49 -->
00:09:56
ripped apart in a final
irreversible end for which it was
00:09:56 -->
00:09:59
created. What are they not lira
BIA? Wow
00:10:00 -->
00:10:05
But in other words, the skies are
listening for the permission of
00:10:05 -->
00:10:10
Allah to rip apart in shapcott
means they will do it by
00:10:10 -->
00:10:12
themselves there is no external
force.
00:10:13 -->
00:10:16
Allah subhanaw taala tells us
elsewhere in the Quran that the
00:10:16 -->
00:10:23
skies are raging to split apart.
Why? Because for all the
00:10:23 -->
00:10:29
disobedience that is going on on
the earth, because the skies like
00:10:29 -->
00:10:35
all the rest of Allah's creation,
are living in their own way. And
00:10:35 -->
00:10:38
they are in obedience of Allah
subhanaw taala and when they see
00:10:38 -->
00:10:39
disobedience coming,
00:10:40 -->
00:10:45
they get upset and angry and they
want to just destroy everything.
00:10:46 -->
00:10:49
Same thing with the earth, yet
they cannot because they are
00:10:49 -->
00:10:54
waiting for the Command of Allah.
But they already know it has been
00:10:54 -->
00:11:00
programmed into them that a day
Allah's command will come now you
00:11:00 -->
00:11:03
may disintegrate, you may tear
apart.
00:11:05 -->
00:11:07
So the skies were created
00:11:08 -->
00:11:13
for that end, because then only
will the reality, the heartache of
00:11:13 -->
00:11:18
the Accra start. And we don't know
what the skies are hiding from us
00:11:18 -->
00:11:22
of reality. It's only when the
skies are torn apart, then we will
00:11:22 -->
00:11:24
know the reality of everything.
00:11:28 -->
00:11:29
So
00:11:30 -->
00:11:34
what Allah subhanaw taala saying
is the skies listening for the
00:11:34 -->
00:11:40
Command of Allah the permission to
tear apart this is the disruption
00:11:40 -->
00:11:44
disruption of and destruction of
the existing laws of Allah and
00:11:44 -->
00:11:45
nature.
00:11:46 -->
00:11:49
Are they not that they hear
Allah's command and they obey
00:11:49 -->
00:11:56
immediately? They hear and they
obey, because it is their right it
00:11:56 -->
00:12:00
is there. It is correct for them.
And it is Allah's right to be
00:12:00 -->
00:12:04
obeyed, to be in complete
submission to be in complete
00:12:04 -->
00:12:09
obedience. They don't have a
choice. Everything Allah created
00:12:10 -->
00:12:11
everything.
00:12:12 -->
00:12:15
Galicia is an obedience and
submission to Allah Subhana Allah,
00:12:15 -->
00:12:17
they have no choice.
00:12:18 -->
00:12:23
Only to have Allah's creation,
we're given a choice, man and Jin.
00:12:25 -->
00:12:30
So a human being who is on his
natural fitrah will immediately
00:12:30 -->
00:12:33
obey the command of Allah, like
the rest of the creation.
00:12:34 -->
00:12:38
While there are others, like most
of us, who look at it, who analyze
00:12:38 -->
00:12:41
it to intellectual, in,
intellectualize it, they see,
00:12:41 -->
00:12:44
well, this is the benefit, this is
the harm, then they decide whether
00:12:44 -->
00:12:50
they're going to obey or not. But
look at the skies, Allah says, Go
00:12:50 -->
00:12:50
and they disappear.
00:12:54 -->
00:12:59
Then Allah subhanaw taala says,
We're either done with that. And
00:12:59 -->
00:13:03
when the earth is not that is
stretched out, it's stretched out
00:13:03 -->
00:13:08
like your stretch leather. It is
stretched out and spread, it's
00:13:08 -->
00:13:13
leveled, it's elongated. And this
is a passive verb. In other words,
00:13:13 -->
00:13:15
it's going to be done, it's not
going to do it on its own.
00:13:17 -->
00:13:22
So if you know, the way Allah's
laws work, there are tectonic
00:13:22 -->
00:13:25
plates that are working under the
earth that push each other and
00:13:25 -->
00:13:31
they become mountains, they become
mountains and valleys. And all of
00:13:31 -->
00:13:34
these come from movements of the
Earth, the movements of the
00:13:34 -->
00:13:38
continents, the movements of the
tectonic plates. So Allah subhanaw
00:13:38 -->
00:13:44
taala, saying that he will pull
all that apart and make it into
00:13:44 -->
00:13:46
one level stretched.
00:13:47 -->
00:13:54
Field, if you will. No mountains,
no valleys, flat. One of the
00:13:54 -->
00:13:59
reasons for that, to accommodate
everyone that is going to be
00:13:59 -->
00:14:00
assembled.
00:14:01 -->
00:14:04
And a hadith tells us that on the
Day of Judgment when the people
00:14:04 -->
00:14:07
are gathered, and there is going
to be billions and maybe even
00:14:07 -->
00:14:12
trillions of people from other
Muslim till the last person, even
00:14:12 -->
00:14:16
then there will be only standing
room, enough room for the feet
00:14:17 -->
00:14:17
because
00:14:19 -->
00:14:22
of the crowding. And yet we also
hear that they'll people will be
00:14:22 -->
00:14:25
running because out of fear. How
can you run when there's only
00:14:25 -->
00:14:29
standing room that any of you have
been at hudge or we've been
00:14:29 -->
00:14:33
anywhere else if you've seen a
stampede, that's what's going to
00:14:33 -->
00:14:35
happen people are going to get
trampled upon.
00:14:37 -->
00:14:40
Now we assume that this is this
earth that this is going to happen
00:14:40 -->
00:14:42
because Allah smart Allah says
00:14:44 -->
00:14:48
after this, will the earth be
round like a ball like it is? Or
00:14:48 -->
00:14:51
will it be flattened out? You
know, like you have a ball of
00:14:51 -->
00:14:56
dough, and then you're making a
pizza or a roti, a bread you
00:14:56 -->
00:14:59
spread it out? Will it be like
that only Allah knows
00:15:00 -->
00:15:05
And we believe this is an actual
physical flattening and stretching
00:15:05 -->
00:15:09
out of the earth. It is not
metaphorical. You know, it's not
00:15:09 -->
00:15:13
metaphorical that will be flat. Or
you know, like for example in the
00:15:13 -->
00:15:17
dwarf suffer, we say what we are
Nevada or Allah shorten our
00:15:17 -->
00:15:21
distance that's not a physical
shortening that's metaphorical
00:15:21 -->
00:15:25
make our journey easy and quick,
but this is going to happen so
00:15:25 -->
00:15:27
Allah subhanaw taala says we're
either or do
00:15:29 -->
00:15:37
mudit well I'll cut Murphy Ha,
what the Hulot what Alcott Alka
00:15:37 -->
00:15:42
means to throw something? So the
earth will throw like we say, you
00:15:42 -->
00:15:49
know, the Musa alayhis salam Alka
Assa it through his ASA his his
00:15:49 -->
00:15:54
staff here the earth alas mandala
saying when it as it's being
00:15:54 -->
00:15:59
flattened out it will throw out it
will eject it'll put out Murphy
00:15:59 -->
00:16:06
whatever is in it every everything
that is inside it will come out
00:16:06 -->
00:16:11
just like we see lava coming out
of the earth and we see things we
00:16:11 -->
00:16:15
will see bodies coming out we will
see treasures coming out we will
00:16:15 -->
00:16:19
see secrets coming out we will see
metals coming out. But most
00:16:19 -->
00:16:24
importantly, every human being
would be thrown out of the earth.
00:16:25 -->
00:16:26
To what degree
00:16:28 -->
00:16:34
what the Hulot the Khaled means to
empty out of everything to get rid
00:16:34 -->
00:16:40
of all of its burdens. And we
covered this also in Surah Xyzal,
00:16:41 -->
00:16:46
for Accra, digital Arbo it will
take out so Allah subhanaw taala,
00:16:46 -->
00:16:50
saying, as the Earth is stretched
out, it will put out everything
00:16:50 -->
00:16:55
that is inside it. And then the
same idea is repeated. But are
00:16:55 -->
00:17:01
they not lira behalf Hocutt
because it here's what the Lord
00:17:01 -->
00:17:05
says what is the Lord's command
and permission and response to the
00:17:05 -->
00:17:08
call immediately. Listen and obey.
00:17:09 -->
00:17:14
Now for us, we consider the earth
and the skies as inanimate and yet
00:17:14 -->
00:17:18
we see Allah is telling us they
listen and they obey
00:17:20 -->
00:17:21
the commands of their Lord.
00:17:22 -->
00:17:28
And the point to reflect here is
how many calls do we hear? And we
00:17:28 -->
00:17:30
remain deaf to it.
00:17:31 -->
00:17:35
And how many calls have anon that
we've heard that we did not
00:17:35 -->
00:17:36
respond to
00:17:37 -->
00:17:39
and how many calls we hear.
00:17:42 -->
00:17:48
And not only not respond but
worse. We hear and we disobey like
00:17:48 -->
00:17:53
the Bani Israel Samana or sign.
Some I know we hear and we
00:17:53 -->
00:17:57
disagree. Whereas our attitude as
believers should be Savannah
00:17:57 -->
00:18:02
watan, we hear and we immediately
obey. Allah is giving us an
00:18:02 -->
00:18:06
example of the heavens and the
earth. Look, this is how they are.
00:18:08 -->
00:18:13
Everything. Everything in creation
obeys and submits willingly,
00:18:13 -->
00:18:16
without a choice to Allah is Allah
subhanaw taala tells us elsewhere
00:18:16 -->
00:18:19
in the Quran, when He created
everything heavens on Earth and
00:18:19 -->
00:18:24
mountain says, Come to obedience
forcefully or willingly they say
00:18:24 -->
00:18:25
we submit willingly
00:18:27 -->
00:18:28
only managin
00:18:29 -->
00:18:35
who are given the choice to submit
and obey or to reject and disobey.
00:18:37 -->
00:18:42
But also remember, when Allah is
telling us about the heavens and
00:18:42 -->
00:18:47
the earth, they're also going to
be witnesses against us or for us,
00:18:48 -->
00:18:49
for what we did.
00:18:51 -->
00:18:56
Therefore, what we should derive
from this is not how this is going
00:18:56 -->
00:19:00
to happen or when it is going to
happen. But we should be the ones
00:19:00 -->
00:19:03
who are consciously obeying Allah
subhanaw taala
00:19:04 -->
00:19:08
all the time, willingly and
lovingly, because after these
00:19:08 -->
00:19:13
first five is now Allah subhanaw
taala addresses us as mankind.
00:19:15 -->
00:19:21
Allah subhanaw taala says, Yeah,
are you insane? In Mecca cada Han
00:19:21 -->
00:19:25
Allah Rebecca Caterham formula p
00:19:26 -->
00:19:28
look at the address.
00:19:29 -->
00:19:35
Yeah, are you insane? All men and
this addresses believers this all
00:19:35 -->
00:19:39
of humanity believers disbelievers
but it's particularly because we
00:19:39 -->
00:19:43
believe in this color from Allah
swimathon Especially for me,
00:19:44 -->
00:19:45
INSEAD
00:19:46 -->
00:19:52
or you who forgets in son from
NESEA don't forget Allah is
00:19:52 -->
00:19:56
telling us this is the key idea of
the surah Allah smart Allah is
00:19:56 -->
00:19:58
telling us all you forgetful man
00:20:00 -->
00:20:06
Water What about you in Nakada?
Han Indeed you are surely can't
00:20:06 -->
00:20:10
the hunt toiling struggling
laboring all your life in a
00:20:10 -->
00:20:13
struggle to the point of
exhaustion
00:20:14 -->
00:20:20
in good ways or bad ways at every
stage you are toiling and you are
00:20:20 -->
00:20:21
moving towards
00:20:23 -->
00:20:23
QA the
00:20:25 -->
00:20:31
QA Jehan Ihlara Becca towards your
Lord, you are moving, get the hand
00:20:31 -->
00:20:34
for Malarkey, you are toiling and
you are toiling.
00:20:35 -->
00:20:39
What is the story that we are
talking about, and this will
00:20:39 -->
00:20:44
continue till the end of our
lives. Some may want to eat some
00:20:44 -->
00:20:49
may want shortcuts Some may want
to have laziness, procrastination,
00:20:49 -->
00:20:53
but there is a struggle at every
stage has struggled to be born, a
00:20:53 -->
00:20:57
struggle to grow up was struggling
to educate, struggled to get a
00:20:57 -->
00:21:02
job, struggled to obey Allah
struggled to work struggle to earn
00:21:02 -->
00:21:06
struggled to marry struggled to
have a families to some struggle
00:21:06 -->
00:21:10
to support a family to deal with
challenges of life, social,
00:21:10 -->
00:21:15
economical, physical, political,
psychological health challenges,
00:21:15 -->
00:21:16
everything is a challenge.
00:21:18 -->
00:21:23
And Allah is telling you, you are
on a conveyor belt that is moving
00:21:23 -->
00:21:28
only in one direction. And that
direction for every one believer
00:21:28 -->
00:21:33
or disbeliever is towards Allah.
You are toiling day after day
00:21:33 -->
00:21:39
towards your Lord, week after
week, month after month, year
00:21:39 -->
00:21:45
after year. So quickly we are in
this new year towards a meeting
00:21:45 -->
00:21:45
with him.
00:21:46 -->
00:21:50
These are small, every day is a
small milestone every week is a
00:21:50 -->
00:21:54
small milestone. Every month every
month is a small milestone we are
00:21:54 -->
00:21:58
going we are leaving. And there
are some larger milestones in our
00:21:58 -->
00:22:01
lives. You know when you graduate
when you get your first job when
00:22:01 -->
00:22:04
you get married, when you have
your first child and so on so
00:22:04 -->
00:22:04
forth.
00:22:05 -->
00:22:09
But they're just milestones in
this journey. And then Allah
00:22:09 -->
00:22:10
subhanaw taala says,
00:22:11 -->
00:22:18
firm will then for Mala t, you
will meet him you will meet your
00:22:18 -->
00:22:22
Lord, there is another
understanding to this, that you
00:22:22 -->
00:22:24
will meet the fruit of your labor.
00:22:26 -->
00:22:30
The actions that you have, and you
can combine the two the actions
00:22:30 -->
00:22:35
that you have done, what you have
learned, you will meet them both
00:22:35 -->
00:22:39
in other words you will meet Allah
along with your actions
00:22:41 -->
00:22:42
your deeds will accompany you.
00:22:45 -->
00:22:50
Now the question to ask for me and
for you. What do you want to meet
00:22:50 -->
00:22:51
Allah with?
00:22:53 -->
00:22:56
What do you want your record to
show?
00:22:57 -->
00:23:03
When he has a virgin opens? What
do you want recorded in it?
00:23:04 -->
00:23:08
And if we keep that in front of
us, our lives will be rectified.
00:23:12 -->
00:23:17
So last month, Allah tells us that
this reality is coming.
00:23:19 -->
00:23:23
Then the next stage from that
meeting the struggle of the life.
00:23:24 -->
00:23:27
Then the meeting with Allah
subhanaw taala the books then
00:23:27 -->
00:23:29
Allah smart Allah says in the next
style
00:23:31 -->
00:23:38
for a man men etea Kitab a who be
Yemeni for sofa, you have several
00:23:38 -->
00:23:39
Hisamitsu
00:23:40 -->
00:23:44
for sofa in your house Cebu Hassan
is here
00:23:45 -->
00:23:51
and the one who is given his book,
his book of deeds in his right
00:23:51 -->
00:23:57
hand. And the right hand
symbolizes ennobling honoring this
00:23:57 -->
00:24:02
person is being honored on that
day, like in a graduation ceremony
00:24:02 -->
00:24:03
that this person graduated.
00:24:05 -->
00:24:09
You know, Allah subhanaw taala
tells us in the Quran that Kitab
00:24:09 -->
00:24:16
al Abrar the book of the righteous
is infill Ely Yun and inscribe
00:24:16 -->
00:24:21
Kitab Omar Kuhlman inscribed book
so just if we could imagine and we
00:24:21 -->
00:24:23
don't know what these books look
like, we don't know what our
00:24:23 -->
00:24:26
records look like we don't know
how they are the books that will
00:24:26 -->
00:24:30
be given in what form that writing
will be, but we know it will be
00:24:31 -->
00:24:36
so from the Leone which is the
collection of of the books of
00:24:36 -->
00:24:41
this, each one's book will be
given in the right hand inshallah
00:24:41 -->
00:24:42
for all of us.
00:24:44 -->
00:24:49
And as soon that's the indication,
the ram of Allah start starts the
00:24:49 -->
00:24:52
ease for the believer starts right
there as soon as a person receives
00:24:52 -->
00:24:55
the book in his right and what
does it mean?
00:24:57 -->
00:24:59
For sofa and then you
00:25:00 -->
00:25:06
You have Cebu, his hisab is hisab
and your sia is an easy wrecking.
00:25:10 -->
00:25:12
What does an easy reckoning mean?
00:25:14 -->
00:25:19
An easy reckoning means that Allah
will look at
00:25:21 -->
00:25:21
the book
00:25:24 -->
00:25:26
he will not scrutinize it.
00:25:27 -->
00:25:34
He will not question he will
forgive, as if all the horrible
00:25:34 -->
00:25:36
things that were written in there
00:25:37 -->
00:25:37
never occurred
00:25:40 -->
00:25:46
he will not push them in front of
them. What is this I see about
00:25:46 -->
00:25:48
you? How dare you did this?
00:25:51 -->
00:25:57
How dare you? Because he sat me
Yes yesira means Allah opens, he
00:25:57 -->
00:26:00
says, go okay, you are forgiven.
00:26:01 -->
00:26:03
You are forgiven.
00:26:05 -->
00:26:10
The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa
alayhi wa sallam frequently used
00:26:10 -->
00:26:15
to make a dua in his salah. He
used to say Allah Maha 70 Sobbing
00:26:15 -->
00:26:23
your 00 Allah make my hisab easy
Reckoning and easy Hassan.
00:26:24 -->
00:26:26
So our mother, I shall have the
Aloha.
00:26:28 -->
00:26:32
She asked your Salah, what is
this? Is Simon yesira Because
00:26:32 -->
00:26:34
Allah is going to take his help
from everyone.
00:26:35 -->
00:26:40
He said, Yeah, I shall know. He
Simon yesira means that Allah does
00:26:40 -->
00:26:45
not take his job, he looks at the
books and he forgives, He doesn't
00:26:45 -->
00:26:47
question there is no scrutiny.
00:26:48 -->
00:26:52
No accounting is taking the book
is taken and given as a
00:26:52 -->
00:26:58
forgiveness, because the one in
whose book Allah looks and then he
00:26:58 -->
00:27:04
questions he will surely perish he
will be punished adab
00:27:05 -->
00:27:09
the one who Allah starts to
question that is a sign that this
00:27:09 -->
00:27:12
person is going to have punishment
to some degree.
00:27:15 -->
00:27:19
So the one who is given the book
in the right hand will have
00:27:21 -->
00:27:26
an easy reckoning. The first
Bashara is right hand then it's
00:27:26 -->
00:27:27
not looked at
00:27:29 -->
00:27:31
the mistakes are not pointed out.
00:27:32 -->
00:27:37
And this is what we make dua for
this is what we hope but this is
00:27:37 -->
00:27:41
not what we should be feeling
content with all I'm unbeliever I
00:27:41 -->
00:27:45
pray I fast don't tell lies. What
more do you want from me? I'm
00:27:45 -->
00:27:48
going to have a saben yesira that
should never be the attitude
00:27:50 -->
00:27:54
you know, what was the attitude of
the best of this Oma?
00:27:55 -->
00:27:59
So you're gonna look back at us
today for us to say that if I have
00:27:59 -->
00:28:01
one foot in Ghana
00:28:03 -->
00:28:08
and the second foot is not yet in
Jana, I would feel insecure from
00:28:08 -->
00:28:12
the destiny of Allah subhanaw
taala whether it will overtake me
00:28:12 -->
00:28:14
and I will not enter Jannah
00:28:16 -->
00:28:19
so you know how many of you know a
tablet, the Alon all those who
00:28:19 -->
00:28:25
have been given the Bashar of Jana
said if on the day of judgment or
00:28:25 -->
00:28:30
caller calls that everyone can
enter Jannah except one.
00:28:32 -->
00:28:35
I would be afraid that that one is
ignored.
00:28:36 -->
00:28:41
This is the degree of fear they
had. They didn't take it easy that
00:28:41 -->
00:28:46
all I've been given Bashar of
Jannah no problems. So we should
00:28:46 -->
00:28:52
have that fear of that day. Yet we
hope and we pray and we do dua
00:28:52 -->
00:28:57
that Allah does not take us to his
job that we are people of his
00:28:57 -->
00:28:58
hobby. We are Sierra.
00:29:02 -->
00:29:08
So once this happens, what is the
next step? For young Cali boo Illa
00:29:08 -->
00:29:13
Allah He must Rudra Allah subhanaw
taala says then this person, young
00:29:13 -->
00:29:19
caliber return Illa only he to his
family must Rudra
00:29:20 -->
00:29:23
to returns from that hearing to
which family
00:29:24 -->
00:29:28
to which family early. We're not
talking about going back to the
00:29:28 -->
00:29:32
earth we are talking about to
those family members of his who
00:29:32 -->
00:29:34
have already entered Jana.
00:29:35 -->
00:29:40
So he will now go and join them.
And he will go and join them with
00:29:40 -->
00:29:47
a glow on his face of happiness
and bursting and happiness must
00:29:47 -->
00:29:47
rubra
00:29:50 -->
00:29:55
through joy, from which comes from
the sort of the deepest the
00:29:55 -->
00:29:59
secret, the innermost joy and face
will be ready
00:30:00 -->
00:30:02
teaching that as a last one Tala
says to the Prophet sallallahu.
00:30:02 -->
00:30:05
cinematographer, would you be
another thing
00:30:07 -->
00:30:12
that your Prophet salallahu Alaihe
Salam will recognize them with the
00:30:12 -->
00:30:15
glow on their faces, which is
another Bashara, the Prophet
00:30:15 -->
00:30:18
salallahu Alaihe Salam will be
there for us to see when we come
00:30:18 -->
00:30:20
across successful.
00:30:23 -->
00:30:27
So, these are the people who are
the ultimate winners the
00:30:27 -->
00:30:28
successful
00:30:30 -->
00:30:36
we will go and join those members
of our family who have succeeded.
00:30:38 -->
00:30:44
Now, we also know that not every
one of every family will be there
00:30:44 -->
00:30:45
in general.
00:30:48 -->
00:30:51
We know that the father of the
halal of Allah,
00:30:52 -->
00:30:55
as a father of Ibrahim alayhis
salam
00:30:56 -->
00:31:00
will not be joining Ibrahim
alayhis salaam and Ibrahim alayhis
00:31:00 -->
00:31:02
salam is not going to be joining
00:31:03 -->
00:31:07
that new wireless lab is not going
to be joining his son, or his wife
00:31:08 -->
00:31:13
Lucullus Alon is not going to be
joining his wife. It's for the
00:31:13 -->
00:31:20
righteous, the ones who make Jana.
So it's very, very important that
00:31:20 -->
00:31:24
we take care of our families so
that the ones we claim to love
00:31:24 -->
00:31:30
hear that we can be together in
Jannah. It is not a guarantee. It
00:31:30 -->
00:31:34
requires work because Allah smart
Allah tells us that your family,
00:31:34 -->
00:31:38
your children, your wealth, there
are trials elsewhere. Last one
00:31:38 -->
00:31:42
dialysis in nomina is Raja Kumar,
Allah docam I don't want to come
00:31:42 -->
00:31:46
there are they are some of them
can be enemies to you, in your
00:31:46 -->
00:31:48
journey to Allah subhanaw taala.
So what do we have to do?
00:31:49 -->
00:31:53
We have to work with our families,
that we are working in the same
00:31:53 -->
00:31:57
direction, that the husband and
wife and children they're the
00:31:57 -->
00:32:00
wheels are turning in the same
direction. So we go there.
00:32:01 -->
00:32:04
It's not like one wheel is going
this way and one wheel is going
00:32:04 -->
00:32:08
this way. The car is never going
to make a headway. Or one is going
00:32:08 -->
00:32:11
fast and one is very slow. It goes
around in circles.
00:32:12 -->
00:32:15
We have to learn together we have
to practice together we have to
00:32:15 -->
00:32:18
encourage each other towards
goodness we have to pray together
00:32:20 -->
00:32:24
then only we can hope to be
together and is Allah's Mercy
00:32:24 -->
00:32:28
elsewhere in the Quran, he tells
us that peoples in the in from the
00:32:28 -->
00:32:32
family would be in different
levels according to the man. Now
00:32:32 -->
00:32:35
they want to meet meet each other.
So the ones above will not be
00:32:35 -->
00:32:40
brought down. But the ones who are
lower level Allah will elevate
00:32:40 -->
00:32:44
their levels to give joy to the
high left. That's why we should
00:32:44 -->
00:32:47
feel happy if we have a happy to
if we have a righteous person. We
00:32:47 -->
00:32:50
should encourage people in our
family to be righteous rather than
00:32:50 -->
00:32:53
criticizing them though you are a
fanatic you are this you are that
00:32:53 -->
00:32:56
we should encourage each other. I
want somebody in my family to be
00:32:57 -->
00:33:01
right up there under the ash so
that from my lowest level, By
00:33:01 -->
00:33:04
Allah's grace, I'll be taken up to
be with that person.
00:33:06 -->
00:33:12
So it's very, very important. Just
remember the attitude of the
00:33:12 -->
00:33:17
Gambia and the xylophone and the
Sahaba towards the family. Or last
00:33:17 -->
00:33:21
month Allah gives us a scene of
Jacobo esalaam On his deathbed in
00:33:21 -->
00:33:25
surah baqarah he is dying and is
surrounded by his children. What
00:33:25 -->
00:33:28
does he say? Who are you going to
worship after me?
00:33:29 -->
00:33:33
Who are you going to worship after
me? That's his concern. Not how,
00:33:33 -->
00:33:37
where is your risk going to come
from? And they say we worship your
00:33:37 -->
00:33:41
Lord the Lord have a father and
have Ibrahima Lisanna
00:33:42 -->
00:33:46
similarly, we know amarena habla
de Alana used to wake up his
00:33:46 -->
00:33:47
family, his children for tahajjud.
00:33:49 -->
00:33:52
Today we want don't wake up our
children for budget because let
00:33:52 -->
00:33:58
the poor child sleep even the poor
child is 16 years old. So we have
00:33:58 -->
00:34:01
to change that attitude. We want
our families together, we make the
00:34:01 -->
00:34:05
Dora Bunnahabhain and administers
wodgina Doriana Cora Toyne what
00:34:05 -->
00:34:09
does it mean? Allah make our
spouses and our children Kurata
00:34:09 -->
00:34:12
and coolness of our eyes, that
gives us peace and satisfaction
00:34:12 -->
00:34:12
and joy.
00:34:14 -->
00:34:18
Where it's not going to be joyful.
May Allah forbid if we see one of
00:34:18 -->
00:34:22
those loved ones being dragged
into the hellfire. The time to
00:34:22 -->
00:34:26
make the effort is here.
Ultimately it's all with Allah
00:34:26 -->
00:34:28
subhanaw taala but we are tasked
to make that
00:34:29 -->
00:34:30
effort.
00:34:32 -->
00:34:36
In the next Allah subhanaw taala
gives us the opposite image
00:34:40 -->
00:34:44
what a madman Ooh Thea Kitab who
were all other hurry
00:34:45 -->
00:34:51
for sofa yet the author whare by
your slot Lhasa, Iraq
00:34:52 -->
00:34:59
and the one who is given his book
whare means behind victory without
00:34:59 -->
00:34:59
behind his
00:35:00 -->
00:35:00
back.
00:35:02 -->
00:35:06
Now you might say, Well, we know
elsewhere in the Quran that the
00:35:06 -->
00:35:09
one with the Kitab will be
Shomali, the one who's given his
00:35:09 -->
00:35:15
book in his left hand here is
saying behind his back. How do we
00:35:15 -->
00:35:16
reconcile the two?
00:35:17 -->
00:35:21
There is, it's very easy because
the criminals who are going to be
00:35:21 -->
00:35:26
given this book in their left
hand, which is a symbol of
00:35:26 -->
00:35:31
humiliation of eternal failure of
punishment of shame of disgrace,
00:35:32 -->
00:35:37
is a ticket to hellfire. They will
be bound. They will be bound in
00:35:37 -->
00:35:42
chains and brought in how will
they be bound the right hand
00:35:43 -->
00:35:46
around the neck and the left
behind the back like this.
00:35:48 -->
00:35:50
Left hand bound by chains behind
the back.
00:35:54 -->
00:35:58
And you know, sometimes when you
do martial arts and other things,
00:35:58 -->
00:36:00
you take somebody's hand behind
and you're twisted, what do you
00:36:00 -->
00:36:05
make that person do the bend
forward, even the angels might
00:36:05 -->
00:36:08
twist that to make them bow you
didn't do too good to Allah. Now
00:36:08 -->
00:36:12
it's time to do Roku and such that
you can get person down just by
00:36:12 -->
00:36:15
twisting the hand behind the back.
So last one, Atala saying yes, the
00:36:15 -->
00:36:19
book will be given in that left
hand but behind their backs.
00:36:21 -->
00:36:24
You can't even read it. But you
know, for what you have done what
00:36:24 -->
00:36:31
it contains guitar will Fauja
Luffy see Jean, from that record,
00:36:31 -->
00:36:35
mercom Kitab, that is inscribed in
which all the records of these
00:36:35 -->
00:36:41
rebellious, arrogant, disobedient
people or who denied
00:36:43 -->
00:36:48
records will be given behind the
back. And the person who is given
00:36:48 -->
00:36:50
the Book behind their back
00:36:51 -->
00:36:56
immediately knows what's coming.
And he's already seeing on the
00:36:56 -->
00:37:01
fire as we've covered in, in the
in the last few Surahs you know,
00:37:01 -->
00:37:07
70,000 Angels holding back 70,000
of those rains to hold it back.
00:37:07 -->
00:37:09
He's seeing that so what does he
do?
00:37:10 -->
00:37:11
He knows what's coming.
00:37:13 -->
00:37:19
As soon as he gets this book, he
has a role. He calls he makes the
00:37:19 -->
00:37:24
hour he pleads to Allah to the
angels that are binding him and
00:37:24 -->
00:37:28
grabbing him and pulling him
through Buddha. What does he want
00:37:28 -->
00:37:33
by distraction? Give me
destruction Give me death. Because
00:37:33 -->
00:37:36
I wouldn't be able to take what's
coming ahead. Dislike we have
00:37:36 -->
00:37:40
examples like when people suffer a
lot in this dunya they said you
00:37:40 -->
00:37:44
know I wish for debts to get
relief of this. But also remember
00:37:44 -->
00:37:47
we have covered before that before
all the starts Allah subhanaw
00:37:47 -->
00:37:51
taala will bring death in the form
of a white RAM and habit sacrifice
00:37:51 -->
00:37:54
that this was debt there is no
more debt.
00:37:55 -->
00:37:59
So even though this person will
beg for death and to be killed,
00:38:00 -->
00:38:01
there is no death after this.
00:38:04 -->
00:38:07
So it is no choice but to endure.
00:38:09 -->
00:38:14
Endure what what you chose the
consequences of what you denied.
00:38:14 -->
00:38:15
What you ignored.
00:38:16 -->
00:38:21
What your intoxication the dunya
made you forget the reality of
00:38:21 -->
00:38:26
this day. What wealth and power
made you feel invincible
00:38:28 -->
00:38:32
and answerable to anyone who is
going to question me that
00:38:32 -->
00:38:38
attitude. Live this person live
for the moment I'm in charge. This
00:38:38 -->
00:38:38
is the end
00:38:40 -->
00:38:43
yes sloth. Allah subhanaw taala
saying yes, La Jolla will be
00:38:43 -->
00:38:48
entered and burned. Roasted in say
the word for Jahannam used here is
00:38:48 -->
00:38:56
saya which means blazing fire with
tall tall flames. Just imagine
00:38:56 -->
00:39:03
flames like skyscrapers, we you
know the flames on the surface of
00:39:03 -->
00:39:07
the sun in this dunya there are
hundreds of 1000s of miles high.
00:39:08 -->
00:39:12
We already did the telescopes see
those that the earth were to come
00:39:12 -->
00:39:13
close it would just disappear.
00:39:15 -->
00:39:20
This is the flame of Jannah which
is hotter than any flame or any
00:39:20 -->
00:39:21
heat of this dunya.
00:39:22 -->
00:39:26
The word sad it also implies in
which there is nothing good there
00:39:26 -->
00:39:28
is no goodness in Jahannam
00:39:30 -->
00:39:31
except one
00:39:35 -->
00:39:37
what is the goodness that comes
out of Jannah
00:39:38 -->
00:39:42
that it will be used to purify
some of the believers from their
00:39:42 -->
00:39:45
sins so that they can enter Jannah
00:39:49 -->
00:39:53
then Allah subhanaw taala talks
about this person who lived like
00:39:53 -->
00:39:54
that, who is now in Ghana.
00:39:56 -->
00:39:59
In Ghana vi li Masaru Rasim
00:40:00 -->
00:40:05
If, indeed he used to also return
to his family go to his family
00:40:05 -->
00:40:10
very joyously. Now Allah subhanaw
taala before talked about the
00:40:10 -->
00:40:13
believers in the hereafter joining
the families here is talking about
00:40:13 -->
00:40:18
the believers. Here the
disbelievers, the disobedient, he
00:40:18 -->
00:40:23
used to live joyfully amongst his
family, heedlessly in a cell in a
00:40:24 -->
00:40:28
sort of false sense of success,
insecurity.
00:40:30 -->
00:40:33
Feeling convinced that he had
achieved happiness, and he was
00:40:33 -->
00:40:39
free to do anything while pursuing
every whim and fulfilling every
00:40:39 -->
00:40:42
desire with his family, give them
whatever they want, let me do
00:40:42 -->
00:40:48
whatever indulge in this dunya
This is how he lived. Why, in who
00:40:48 -->
00:40:56
than a nine year fool, because
indeed he Ven, he thought he was
00:40:56 -->
00:41:03
convinced that learn laying your
whole there will never be your
00:41:03 -->
00:41:08
whole return. How means to return,
return to his Lord, he didn't
00:41:08 -->
00:41:10
believe that he was going back.
00:41:11 -->
00:41:16
He thought that this life is an
endless joy. He can do whatever he
00:41:16 -->
00:41:18
wants. This was his attitude.
00:41:20 -->
00:41:22
Then Allah subhanaw taala says by
law
00:41:23 -->
00:41:31
in a rowboat cannot be Heber
Sierra. No, to the contrary, his
00:41:31 -->
00:41:38
Lord be evil Sierra, he was
watching him, always watching
00:41:39 -->
00:41:40
everything about him.
00:41:42 -->
00:41:48
Everything around him, everything
inside of him. every action, every
00:41:48 -->
00:41:53
thought, every word, every
intention, every desire, every
00:41:53 -->
00:41:54
plan.
00:41:56 -->
00:42:00
Even though the angels recorded
it, the earth recorded the skies
00:42:00 -->
00:42:04
recorded the body parts recorded
it. But most important, even
00:42:04 -->
00:42:09
without those records, Allah was
watching him. He was witnessed
00:42:09 -->
00:42:11
over everything, always aware.
00:42:13 -->
00:42:17
While he was not aware that Aurora
creed was watching,
00:42:19 -->
00:42:24
what do I learn from this, that I
need to have reminders everywhere,
00:42:25 -->
00:42:29
like sticky notes, or Rocky was
watching you,
00:42:30 -->
00:42:36
in my car, in my work in my room,
everywhere, to like get into that
00:42:37 -->
00:42:41
state of constant maraca by
watching myself that Allah is
00:42:41 -->
00:42:41
watching me.
00:42:43 -->
00:42:45
Because if I get into that state,
00:42:46 -->
00:42:47
I will never disappoint my
00:42:48 -->
00:42:52
because I know Allah is watching.
This thought comes to me, Allah
00:42:52 -->
00:42:55
knows it. So I get rid of it.
00:42:56 -->
00:43:00
And we see examples of this in our
lives. You're driving along
00:43:00 -->
00:43:05
carelessly, on your cell phone, 75
miles, 95 miles, some people some
00:43:05 -->
00:43:09
of you drive very fast, don't
follow the speed limits. The
00:43:09 -->
00:43:12
moment you see a police officer on
the side, what happens? The cell
00:43:12 -->
00:43:17
phone disappears, both hands on
the steering seatbelt is on 65
00:43:17 -->
00:43:18
miles an hour, instantly.
00:43:19 -->
00:43:24
Now if we had that awareness of
Allah watching us, how beautiful
00:43:24 -->
00:43:26
would drive be to him
00:43:27 -->
00:43:28
as a soldier,
00:43:30 -->
00:43:34
this is the end of the second
segment. Now we go to the third
00:43:34 -->
00:43:38
segment, which Allah subhanaw
taala asked, which has to do with
00:43:38 -->
00:43:42
reminds us of the signs that Allah
subhanaw taala reminds us he says,
00:43:42 -->
00:43:44
Fela opossum be shuffled.
00:43:45 -->
00:43:50
Now these are oats as you know, in
previous tours, the surah started
00:43:50 -->
00:43:54
with oats. Here there is a
variation that the earth comes in
00:43:54 -->
00:43:58
the middle of the surah Allah
subhanaw taala says no to all of
00:43:58 -->
00:44:05
those wrong ideas for Allah
opposite moon I swear be shuffled
00:44:05 -->
00:44:10
up what is Shafique the Twilight,
the redness of the the horizon
00:44:10 -->
00:44:15
after sunset, and some of these
last few days last week there was
00:44:15 -->
00:44:19
a beautiful last Monday it was
read like anything many of you
00:44:19 -->
00:44:23
have taken pictures or even
shared. That is the shuffle. So
00:44:23 -->
00:44:27
Allah subhanaw taala is still
telling us that I swear by that
00:44:27 -->
00:44:32
red glow of the western horizon
after sunset
00:44:33 -->
00:44:41
while Layli were Ma was SATCOM and
by the night and what it envelops
00:44:41 -->
00:44:47
and in shrouds and what warmer
means everything that happens in
00:44:47 -->
00:44:51
the night that that the night
covers, it's not like everything
00:44:51 -->
00:44:56
just becomes dark. But everything
that goes it's shrouded in shrouds
00:44:56 -->
00:44:59
the objects, the created beings
that we know
00:45:00 -->
00:45:03
And we don't know the creative
events that are going on in the
00:45:03 -->
00:45:07
night, the actions of people going
on everything that happens in the
00:45:07 -->
00:45:11
night Allah swears by the night
and everything that it covers
00:45:13 -->
00:45:16
while Comrie is that pass up
00:45:17 -->
00:45:22
and I swear by the moon when it
gathers together to become a full
00:45:22 -->
00:45:22
moon.
00:45:24 -->
00:45:28
So here Allah subhanaw taala is
taking three notes
00:45:29 -->
00:45:34
on his creation and these are
cycles it will remind us of
00:45:34 -->
00:45:39
something because the next hire
Allah swamper the job of this
00:45:39 -->
00:45:43
custom letter kabuna debacle and
tobacco
00:45:45 -->
00:45:52
love Lamb of dark eat, surely what
you insane and some there is
00:45:52 -->
00:45:55
another interpretation that this
is specifically telling the
00:45:55 -->
00:45:58
Prophet sallallaahu listen but
let's first take incent
00:45:59 -->
00:46:03
third cabin per kabuna you will
move forward
00:46:05 -->
00:46:09
Rockabye means to write means you
will right forward. taba can
00:46:09 -->
00:46:11
unterberg stage after stage,
00:46:12 -->
00:46:17
just imagine there is a journey a
horse delivers you from this point
00:46:17 -->
00:46:22
A to point B next horse takes you
from point B to point C and so on
00:46:22 -->
00:46:26
so forth. Allah subhanaw taala is
telling us indeed I swear by all
00:46:26 -->
00:46:31
of these creations, that you will
also progress stage after stage
00:46:31 -->
00:46:34
you have something coming ahead of
you you are going to be delivered
00:46:34 -->
00:46:36
from one to the other.
00:46:37 -->
00:46:44
Such as, from your conception to
your birth, from your birth to
00:46:44 -->
00:46:49
becoming an infant infant who's
walking and talking to one who is
00:46:49 -->
00:46:54
now school going to one who has
grown in strength to one who is
00:46:54 -->
00:47:01
now earning a living to one who is
now having their own family to one
00:47:01 -->
00:47:08
who has now reached middle age to
one who reaches an old age and to
00:47:08 -->
00:47:14
one who reaches enfeeblement and
senility till Allah subhanaw taala
00:47:14 -->
00:47:18
says and those whom we permit to
get to that long enough, live long
00:47:18 -->
00:47:24
enough, you will become as
dependent and as helpless. As when
00:47:24 -->
00:47:25
you were a baby.
00:47:26 -->
00:47:29
You will need to be fed, you will
need to be changed. You will need
00:47:29 -->
00:47:33
to be walked you will need to be
turned this like a baby.
00:47:34 -->
00:47:39
This is the destiny journey of
life that no one escapes or
00:47:39 -->
00:47:44
overturns, no matter how you fight
it, you can be on your peloton
00:47:44 -->
00:47:47
24/7 You are going down
00:47:49 -->
00:47:53
it is in stages that are life
goes.
00:47:54 -->
00:47:59
What is the relevance with those
oats that last mentioned the cycle
00:47:59 -->
00:48:00
of the sun,
00:48:01 -->
00:48:06
Sunrise comes to a zenith and
sunsets and what is remaining of
00:48:06 -->
00:48:09
this that there was a sun, the
sharp
00:48:10 -->
00:48:15
similarly the night when it
gathers its thoughts, you can
00:48:15 -->
00:48:19
still see that it becomes so dark
that nothing is visible. And then
00:48:19 -->
00:48:24
the next dawn comes disappears.
And similarly the moon, it starts
00:48:24 -->
00:48:27
with a little sliver, a crescent,
then becomes full
00:48:28 -->
00:48:33
and then starts to go and then
disappears again. Everything is in
00:48:33 -->
00:48:38
cycles. Allah is reminding us of
these signs, that your life is
00:48:38 -->
00:48:39
also a cycle.
00:48:43 -->
00:48:49
cycle of life where you will have
light and darkness in your life,
00:48:50 -->
00:48:54
you will have cycles of happiness
and sadness, of health and
00:48:54 -->
00:48:58
sickness of being a child to being
a parent
00:49:00 -->
00:49:01
and so on so forth.
00:49:03 -->
00:49:04
And nothing stops.
00:49:05 -->
00:49:11
We will keep moving stage after
stage. You can also take this as a
00:49:11 -->
00:49:16
stage from when Allah created our
Arwa our souls and took the notes
00:49:16 -->
00:49:20
of of acknowledgement of history
head.
00:49:21 -->
00:49:24
And then that next stage we came
into the wombs of our mothers the
00:49:24 -->
00:49:28
soul was buried at four months.
And then
00:49:30 -->
00:49:37
we came here and then we go into
the graves and the realm of dry to
00:49:37 -->
00:49:40
the day of judgment stage after
stage.
00:49:41 -->
00:49:44
And then there is the day of
judgment and there are two
00:49:44 -->
00:49:48
destinations the final stage only
to destination Jana,
00:49:49 -->
00:49:52
not those who said this is
addressed to the Prophet salallahu
00:49:52 -->
00:49:57
Alaihe Salam also talking about
the stages of how he was born as
00:49:57 -->
00:50:00
an orphan, and then how he grew up
and how Allah
00:50:00 -->
00:50:03
Spatola enriched him out Allah's
mantle ennobled and how Allah
00:50:03 -->
00:50:08
subhanaw taala given prophet hood,
how Allah subhanaw taala permitted
00:50:08 -->
00:50:12
him to be subjected to, to
ridicule and torture and this and
00:50:12 -->
00:50:16
that, that he will go from there
to become to start become a
00:50:16 -->
00:50:21
statesman to establish a stage to
establish the dean and to
00:50:21 -->
00:50:26
establish the ultimate truth till
the Day of Judgment, stage after
00:50:26 -->
00:50:27
stage after stage.
00:50:28 -->
00:50:31
Finally, on the Day of Judgment,
the first one to be resurrected,
00:50:31 -->
00:50:34
the first one to be honored, the
first the one who will carry the
00:50:34 -->
00:50:39
flag of hummed of Allah on the Day
of Judgment, stage after stage to
00:50:39 -->
00:50:42
be entered into the first dose
Allah Allah,
00:50:43 -->
00:50:47
the karma machmood stages in the
life of Rasulullah sallallahu
00:50:47 -->
00:50:50
alayhi salam ala Santella join us
with him.
00:50:53 -->
00:50:53
So,
00:50:56 -->
00:50:58
this is the destined journey that
we have.
00:50:59 -->
00:51:02
Then Allah subhanaw taala after
telling us this, I suppose to
00:51:02 -->
00:51:07
reflect, now he comes into the
last part, which is like a
00:51:07 -->
00:51:07
warning.
00:51:11 -->
00:51:12
Allah subhanaw taala says,
00:51:15 -->
00:51:16
For my Allah whom live
00:51:18 -->
00:51:22
then what is math? What is the
matter with these people?
00:51:23 -->
00:51:27
When they are called to Allah,
they still lie up. No, they do not
00:51:27 -->
00:51:31
believe. They don't even it's so
obvious. They don't believe in
00:51:31 -->
00:51:34
Allah. They don't believe in his
meeting. They don't believe in His
00:51:34 -->
00:51:37
revelation. They don't believe in
His messenger.
00:51:39 -->
00:51:43
It's amazing. It's, it's a
question of amazement. What's the
00:51:43 -->
00:51:46
matter with them? It's amazing.
It's so obvious.
00:51:49 -->
00:51:52
The evidence the proofs are
overwhelming. They're logical.
00:51:53 -->
00:51:56
They're experiential. You
experience them they're obvious.
00:51:58 -->
00:52:03
But the place of Eman is the cult.
So why doesn't the cult accept it?
00:52:04 -->
00:52:10
Because Allah tells us previously
colourable Rana Allah Kulu, Ben,
00:52:11 -->
00:52:18
knee, but their hearts are covered
with an impenetrable black veil as
00:52:18 -->
00:52:24
a result of their sinful behavior.
So no light can penetrate.
00:52:26 -->
00:52:30
The light of truth cannot
penetrate. Therefore they will not
00:52:30 -->
00:52:34
believe they will not believe no
matter what proofs are there, no
00:52:34 -->
00:52:38
matter how obvious it is, that
even if a lower to come down, they
00:52:38 -->
00:52:40
would say this is magic.
00:52:46 -->
00:52:49
So Allah subhanaw taala challenges
us and desires to look at the
00:52:49 -->
00:52:54
signs mentioned before. And look
in the ayat of the Quran, which is
00:52:54 -->
00:52:59
the other signs of Allah for proof
for certainty of the truth for us
00:52:59 -->
00:53:00
as believers.
00:53:01 -->
00:53:03
And it's important for us to
remember that when we stop
00:53:03 -->
00:53:06
noticing the signs of Allah and
the universe.
00:53:08 -->
00:53:11
When we just take everything for
granted, we don't notice anything.
00:53:11 -->
00:53:14
We will start disconnecting from
him as much.
00:53:15 -->
00:53:20
Therefore it's important those of
us with an urban lifestyle to go
00:53:20 -->
00:53:24
out in nature to see where things
come from.
00:53:25 -->
00:53:28
Otherwise we ask a child where
does the
00:53:29 -->
00:53:33
milk and egg come from? They say
from Big Y from the grocery store.
00:53:34 -->
00:53:37
Where does this happen? Because
that's where they see it's coming
00:53:37 -->
00:53:40
from. Go out in nature see the
signs of Allah subhanaw taala
00:53:42 -->
00:53:46
all of that is very important and
to reflect on the ayat of the
00:53:46 -->
00:53:50
Quran, which is the next IR last
one and Allah says what is the
00:53:50 -->
00:53:53
matter that the don't see all of
the signs outside? Not only that,
00:53:54 -->
00:53:59
were either Korea I lay him on
Quran lie yesterday.
00:54:01 -->
00:54:08
Where either when Korea when it is
recited, I lay in to them upon
00:54:08 -->
00:54:14
them. Al Quran the ayat of the
Quran, lie yes you don't. Let's
00:54:14 -->
00:54:21
take 1/32 pause because this is
off stage that let us do a search
00:54:21 -->
00:54:24
there preferably facing the killer
and then we'll be right back.
00:54:41 -->
00:54:46
So Allah subhanaw taala is saying
that when the ayat of the Quran
00:54:46 -->
00:54:50
are recited to them, they do not
fall down in such dark to
00:54:50 -->
00:54:55
acknowledge His Lordship and to
worship him lovingly, in full
00:54:55 -->
00:54:59
surrender, putting their most
prized portion their face on the
00:54:59 -->
00:54:59
ground.
00:55:00 -->
00:55:01
In front of Him in humility,
00:55:03 -->
00:55:04
submitting in front of his word.
00:55:06 -->
00:55:10
This is one of the highlights of
the offseason that tilava in the
00:55:10 -->
00:55:15
Quran. As most of you know, there
are 15 and that most have agreed
00:55:15 -->
00:55:18
on and some have said there are 14
because some take one surah had
00:55:18 -->
00:55:23
some tech too. And we can talk
about in the q&a about the fake
00:55:23 -->
00:55:26
cough says that allow to do it,
when to do it. All of that we can
00:55:26 -->
00:55:30
talk later. But let's finish this
that Allah subhanaw taala saying
00:55:30 -->
00:55:33
that when they hear these words,
they are so powerful, they
00:55:33 -->
00:55:38
understand it, what should be the
response of a person of with any
00:55:38 -->
00:55:42
heart of any natural remnant of
the fitrah in them, they would
00:55:42 -->
00:55:46
fall down in submission to Allah
subhanaw taala in front of his
00:55:46 -->
00:55:50
word that this is the word of
Allah subhanaw taala by ladina
00:55:50 -->
00:55:54
Cafaro you cut the bone but
instead what do they do? These
00:55:54 -->
00:55:59
disbelievers not only don't fall
down submission and such that they
00:55:59 -->
00:56:04
deny and they persistently reject
the truth, the truth of the Quran,
00:56:04 -->
00:56:07
the truth of the message of Allah
the truth of the messenger
00:56:07 -->
00:56:12
sallallahu alayhi salam, and they
deny the Archon of Eman they deny
00:56:12 -->
00:56:16
Allah they deny the revelations
they deny the messenger they deny
00:56:16 -->
00:56:20
the Day of Judgment they deny the
Accra the Jana and the Hellfire
00:56:20 -->
00:56:21
which they are going to see.
00:56:22 -->
00:56:24
So far
00:56:26 -->
00:56:31
before that walau Allah Moo Bhima
your own
00:56:32 -->
00:56:36
Yet Allah Allah best knows
00:56:38 -->
00:56:41
your own means what the hide of
secrets inside them
00:56:44 -->
00:56:49
what they find, we hire we hire is
a bag you know like we have in
00:56:49 -->
00:56:54
Surah Yusuf Monday Surah Yusuf use
of Al Salam checks the bag of his
00:56:54 -->
00:56:59
brother Thumma so much stuff Raja
min, we are lucky that it took out
00:56:59 -->
00:57:03
that that cup the goblet from his
we have from his bag, so Allah
00:57:03 -->
00:57:07
says what the bag of their hearts
contains the secrets that are
00:57:07 -->
00:57:12
inside. Allah best knows what they
hide inside of their secrets, the
00:57:12 -->
00:57:16
ills, the diseases, the plots.
Allah knows everything that
00:57:16 -->
00:57:19
denying all of this Yet Allah
knows everything before he said
00:57:19 -->
00:57:26
the Heba zero he's watching anyone
knows Allah, bossy and bossy when
00:57:26 -->
00:57:30
Eileen, two of the attributes of
Allah subhanaw taala.
00:57:31 -->
00:57:35
So what is the consequence of what
ALLAH knows and what they're
00:57:35 -->
00:57:38
doing? For, as a consequence,
though?
00:57:41 -->
00:57:47
Bashir whom the other binary, so
then, Bashir, to whom, or
00:57:47 -->
00:57:50
messenger of Allah salAllahu
alayhi salam, give them the glad
00:57:50 -->
00:57:54
tidings. This is a sarcasm.
00:57:55 -->
00:57:59
Give them the glad tidings of what
that you're going to burn in *.
00:58:00 -->
00:58:06
Bashir on, give them the tidings
of what is coming ahead because of
00:58:06 -->
00:58:07
what you do
00:58:08 -->
00:58:11
endless suffering in the
Hereafter.
00:58:13 -->
00:58:17
This is the consequence, then
Allah subhanaw taala still out of
00:58:17 -->
00:58:24
his, or Rockman leaves the door
open. Il Alladhina amanu accept in
00:58:24 -->
00:58:29
spite of all of that, except
before you die, am I know if you
00:58:29 -->
00:58:33
believe and do good deeds? Ill
Alladhina amanu accept those who
00:58:33 -->
00:58:37
believe and they do good deeds.
00:58:38 -->
00:58:43
For them there is ill Alladhina
amanu aminu Salah had long as you
00:58:43 -->
00:58:48
run away Roman noon for them there
is a reward Archer, the hero
00:58:48 -->
00:58:51
Mamnoon Mamnoon something that can
be cut off that can be diminished,
00:58:51 -->
00:58:55
that can be stopped this is an
endless reward. Allah subhanaw
00:58:55 -->
00:58:59
taala lives that hope that if a
person who believes
00:59:00 -->
00:59:04
believes in the true sense and
shows that belief by good deeds,
00:59:04 -->
00:59:08
Mo salah, prove it with good
deeds,
00:59:09 -->
00:59:15
you know, walk the talk for them
there is guaranteed guaranteed
00:59:15 -->
00:59:19
viral Mamnoon that cannot be cut
off that cannot end that will not
00:59:19 -->
00:59:24
fail that never ending reward from
the Lord that no one can take away
00:59:24 -->
00:59:28
or decrease. Compare that with the
dunya. No matter how much you
00:59:28 -->
00:59:33
have, what you have, how long you
have had, it is always tainted
00:59:33 -->
00:59:37
with something you have fear about
losing, you can get sick then you
00:59:37 -->
00:59:40
don't enjoy it. You are struggling
to achieve it. Sometimes there's a
00:59:40 -->
00:59:44
decline sometimes it causes stress
and finally, even if none of that
00:59:44 -->
00:59:47
you experience you had it, it ends
anyway.
00:59:48 -->
00:59:50
But the reward of the Hereafter is
eternal.
00:59:52 -->
00:59:57
This is a Surah about
inevitability, inevitability of
00:59:57 -->
00:59:59
the Day of Judgment and what is
coming
01:00:01 -->
01:00:07
It is not a choice of if it is
going to happen, or when it is
01:00:07 -->
01:00:14
going to happen, but the choice of
what you want your end to be, how
01:00:14 -->
01:00:18
I want my end to be. So you and I
decide
01:00:19 -->
01:00:20
which way to live.
01:00:22 -->
01:00:26
To determine which of the two
endings we are going to have.
01:00:27 -->
01:00:33
It is about consequences. In this
life we are bound to Allah
01:00:33 -->
01:00:39
subhanaw taala as laws, we have
freedom of choice, but we do not
01:00:39 -->
01:00:42
have freedom from consequences of
our choice.
01:00:45 -->
01:00:50
We have freedom of choice, but we
do not have freedom from
01:00:50 -->
01:00:54
consequences of the choices we
made. Every choice has a
01:00:54 -->
01:00:55
consequence good or bad.
01:00:57 -->
01:01:03
In the dunya, the believers are
bound and restricted by his laws,
01:01:04 -->
01:01:06
the Sharia, so we
01:01:08 -->
01:01:10
we are bound by that and if we
live by that,
01:01:12 -->
01:01:16
we will be free from the negative
consequences of his disobedience
01:01:16 -->
01:01:17
in the hereafter you are free,
they're
01:01:19 -->
01:01:24
the disbeliever and the sinner,
the rebellious one.
01:01:27 -->
01:01:30
He is free from Allah's laws in
this dunya.
01:01:32 -->
01:01:33
Do whatever you want.
01:01:36 -->
01:01:39
But you will be imprisoned by the
consequences of his disobedience
01:01:39 -->
01:01:41
and action in the hereafter.
01:01:42 -->
01:01:46
The sequence will be reversed.
This is the meaning of the Hadith
01:01:46 -->
01:01:50
of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe
Salam about dunya sigil Minh with
01:01:50 -->
01:01:55
genital caffeic. The dunya is like
a prison for the believer because
01:01:55 -->
01:01:59
he lives by laws restricted. It's
not open to whatever you want. And
01:01:59 -->
01:02:03
this agenda of the cafe agenda
means do whatever you want. But
01:02:03 -->
01:02:07
the roles are reversed and
hereafter their agenda for the
01:02:07 -->
01:02:11
believer and the surgeon of the
character, which is Jen.
01:02:13 -->
01:02:19
So Allah subhanaw taala completes
the surah. By tying the beginning
01:02:19 -->
01:02:23
the two ends together during the
beginning of the Surah, which was
01:02:23 -->
01:02:26
the beginning of the day of
judgment, this is how it starts,
01:02:27 -->
01:02:33
is the summer on shapcott. Here it
starts and the end he brings with
01:02:33 -->
01:02:36
the two ends the final destination
This is the end,
01:02:38 -->
01:02:43
the end of the day of judgment,
the final assignment to one of two
01:02:43 -->
01:02:45
places in the hereafter.
01:02:47 -->
01:02:51
25 brief is one page of the Quran
01:02:52 -->
01:02:56
covers everything. If you didn't
read any more of the Quran, and
01:02:56 -->
01:03:00
you just obeyed this if I just
obeyed this and took it to heart,
01:03:00 -->
01:03:03
internalized it actualized it
01:03:05 -->
01:03:06
it would lead to
01:03:08 -->
01:03:11
the Yameen the Serbian yesira
01:03:12 -->
01:03:13
The adenoviral Mamnoon
01:03:17 -->
01:03:20
What a beautiful way to live
01:03:22 -->
01:03:27
and the Jannah of the day the
decision of the believer in this
01:03:27 -->
01:03:31
dunya living like a prison has its
own joys
01:03:32 -->
01:03:33
of obedience.
01:03:34 -->
01:03:39
When you fast the month of Ramadan
Don't you feel happiness? When you
01:03:39 -->
01:03:43
finish obey obeying Allah subhanaw
taala with the Sunnah Don't you
01:03:43 -->
01:03:44
feel happy
01:03:46 -->
01:03:50
when our brothers and sisters come
back from aamra and hatched on the
01:03:50 -->
01:03:50
overjoyed
01:03:53 -->
01:03:58
to that prison of Allah is a
blessing because it has his own
01:03:58 -->
01:04:02
joy in this dunya which they do
not know the disbelievers that's
01:04:02 -->
01:04:08
why some of our Salah have said
that if they knew what kind of
01:04:08 -->
01:04:11
joys we have inside, they would
fight us with their swords for it.
01:04:14 -->
01:04:18
Some of them said you can put me
in the present, but my Janna is in
01:04:18 -->
01:04:20
my heart, I'll still be injured.
01:04:22 -->
01:04:27
So let us inshallah with toffee
toffee from Allah subhanaw taala
01:04:27 -->
01:04:32
internalize these actualize these
in our lives and lead our lives in
01:04:32 -->
01:04:36
a way that we are among the
successful we and all of our
01:04:36 -->
01:04:41
families. And that family early in
the hereafter is not just the
01:04:41 -->
01:04:44
genetic family, but also a family
of believers.
01:04:46 -->
01:04:51
All of us inshallah who are on
this Zoom meeting as one family
01:04:51 -->
01:04:56
and all the OMA is one family. We
will meet Inshallah, in the
01:04:56 -->
01:04:59
Hereafter, with joys on our faces.
May Allah
01:05:00 -->
01:05:06
except that and may Allah make it
easy for us Subhana Allah Morbihan
