Mr.
Chairman of manisa
Hello and
welcome.
We begin the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the grantor of mercy, all praise and glory belongs to Allah.
We thank him and we seek His help and his guidance and displeasure and his forgiveness and we turn to a law seeking protection from evil whispers within us and the awful consequences of our misdeeds our sinful actions. remember Allah guides to the straight path, none can divert them and can lead them astray, and whomever all lameness leads overall mungus guys leaves without guidance, then no one can return them to the path. And we testify that no one is worthy of our worship, our recognition, our observance By Allah, the true supreme King, alone without any partners and the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam studied his prophet and asserting that his messenger as
he said, he sent as a bearer of bad tidings a warning for the coming of the album a mercy to the world's humankind, the genie kinda like a we will have the man have this extra love, be conscious about love, be fearful and do default to above and do not die except in a state of complete and total surrender to all of us.
To begin after welcome our brothers and sisters in the house of allies, we continue sailing throughout the world and praying that Allah enables us to reach and candidates have eyes on the month of Ramadan, may Allah allow us to see it and I will service its fruits.
And in preparation for Ramadan and beyond, and in preparation for meeting the speaker on muscle, or data on the correct footing. We continue to look
at our previous meeting to help us ago we spoke about sort of unions, and there is a relationship between sort of Uranus and sort of who
they are both revealed in Mecca. And us, as we said, speaks about the promise of a mob that a person is supposed to keep in front of him so he doesn't lose stamina. And the promise is that you will meet on love. I'm looking forward to meeting a lot and how that hope that inspiration drives a person through anything and carries a person across whatever he needs to growth in the studio. solitude speaks a great deal about being aware of love but more fearful than hopeful. Being afraid of a muscle kind of a job without having that fear play an active role inside you light a flame under you. In some narrations It is said that a walker so deal came to the profits of the love audio
send them and said to you began to grow white hairs or messenger of Allah so the love audios and
and there are various reports and the authenticity at times debated but the the the meaning of this narration that has been reported about many too many of those who have and it's a very is that he said to him sooner. The sooner we're about to discuss and it sisters meaning and the Sooners that resemble it in content and those that are like it. She eventually has caused me to grow old this
Fear inside of him that had an actual physical, apparent outward manifestation that is of the key meanings in the soul
and a person can make but why will this fear like fear that will grow someone's hair to grow white to become white? Why is this a person supposed to be that the free, that seems like trauma. And I this is very understood why a person may think so. And the only reason why the profits of the love of animals or have had so much fear of a lot more than anyone you know, but they were not traumatized was because it also was coupled was complemented with an unprecedented amount of hope. And that is the connection between fear and hope that carries the believer. You see the scholars, they say that the crux of your faith as a Muslim is the love of love. That's the head of the verb,
that you fly within your journey to Allah and the two wings that carry you not directly directed by your love of Allah, that is the essence of faith. That is the essence of belief. You surrender to a lifestyle in your heart lovingly more than anything else. So that's the essence. And the two wings are fear. And if one becomes too much stronger than the other, there's an imbalance and you become subject to crashing, you become subject to being easily caught by predators. And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had an immense amount of fear that would balance his immense amount of hope.
Because too much fear will cause you to there's no point in working, I was told by despair, I'm too afraid. And too much hope will give you the same end, that I don't have to work on level, forgive me, it's all fine. Right? So both of them will lead to inaction. But the greatest fear and the great hope that is land demands of you are the balanced fear and hope that will give you actions and this is the meaning the meaning of students who are one of the central meanings in the soul of solitude. You know, who, for some background is one of the profits of a lot of syllogisms. One of the for profits that were sent among the Arabs from the Arabs, they will move and saw that.
And, sure, I and our Prophet Muhammad Sallallahu wasallam. Those are the
the Arabs of old especially mood and solid these are the ancient extinct Arabs that were destroyed.
And every one of them they are mentioned in the Quran. So the two who then Solomon shrine are mentioned to our Prophet who happens
to be this example to be his role model in beating people that were fearless because they feared a lump sum kind of a dialogue. That is one of the main fruits of fear as well. That is one of the main fruits of field. A lot of projects as well couldn't learn enough to swallow a can mean embeddable, suli manufacturing manifested to be flattened.
And all of these stories of the profits we relate to you we relate to you are that by which we make your heart firm, you're not shaking.
And so this fear that they had to love, you will now see it in the soul, and this fear they had in our love. And we'll come back to it at the end of the photo to show you how they were not afraid of anyone else when they're fearful what was true. The last thing I do wish to say about fearing of love is that feeling of love does not mean and this is a beautiful concept right in the beginning of solitude, fearing a lot is not just fearing this punishment, as most people think. It's not just the fear that he will torment, he will torture me he will throw me in jail and fight. That's not the only fear in the world and elsewhere. I'm trying to live up to the laws. dogen says my promise is
for vaniqa. This promise of mine. Lehman Hoffer, for me was also worried is for the one who fears my standing, meaning he fears the fact that I am standing over him right now.
Women have been married Mary, ye and the the one who fears my credit. So fearing the standing of a law is different than fearing these threads. Because a person can say yes, I'm afraid of the threat of a large intelligence. And that's why I need to repent every once in a while, right? At the end of my life, I need to repent wherever you don't want to repent, or after a horrible week, I need to put some money in the box and that will be my job, right? It is not as close whereas the fear of us standing is a fear that is immediate. And it's not just about punishment. Yes, it reminds you of punishment, but it also aligns with your intent to love. It reminds me if I reminded you would be
ashamed. It reminds you of all the old one like every moments and that is
Is the theory that sort of focuses on more in the first is the 10th 11th 12th verses of law says these people who try to run from us who tried to hide from us, the disbelievers from the auto Mecca, he says Elena, yes, that will show that the
young men
in the movie that
these people need to realize at the moment that they are covering themselves with their clothing. Meaning even when you're home, even before you get dressed, while you're still naked. At that moment, when you're reading from all he knows what they keep secret, and what they make public. He even knows that this loot what is within the chests mean he doesn't just see you, he sees you in private, and then not just in private, he doesn't see you, he sees through you. So kind of being conscious of that. The next is
what
I
mean, and there is no creature on the earth. Except that it is a laws responsibility, he made it his responsibility. Nobody gives up love duties, he made it his own duty to provide for it that includes us because we walk on the earth as well. We are creatures, and he knows where it stays and he knows its place of storage, it will it will be stored.
Everything is written in a book he's even expressed this supernova with it he's made the pen right you
will have a similar to a lot of and he created the heavens and the earth feces in six days, what can our true morality and meaning and before that his throne was already upon the water, the water that's above the creation of of the worlds why he created the heavens and the earth. And before that is strong still there, Leah Balu. Or you could accent to tell you which of the of you are most excellent in these. So what are these verses say now pull them all together allows me to sing even when you're naked I see you when I see through you. And I am the one that provides for every creature and I know everything about it. And I only created the heavens and the earth.
And my phone was previously there so that I can watch you to see which of you is going to have deeds of quality, such as anything I need you. And you need to be watchful of me because I provided for you. And I'm staring at you. So what are you going to do with what I've given you? Why am I watching? That's the concept of coffin a bomb fears my standing.
If a person is able to grasp that concept, to notice it, it would deter him from being faltering time and time again. That's why when they came to
love, the man said to him, I can't seem to get my wife in order. I repent and then I go back and I say I'm gonna stop and I go back. I can't stop committing certain crimes in the right of Allah subhana wa Tada. Ibrahim let me step by step. He said to listen fine. If you must sin, if you must see, then at least do not sin
on this earth. He said, Where else would I go? He said, aren't you ashamed? You're on his Earth is obedient. And if you're still able to see then at least do not eat from what he provides you. He said, Who else can provide for me? Who else? Everything I have is provided by law. He said, aren't you ashamed that providing for you and you use that energy to dissuade him? He said that at least do it in a place that he doesn't see you. He said what places that are these are, you know, he's trying to remind you of the things he knows what there's like a whole lot of blur. There's a lot of dust that has very deep beliefs about the world that was constructed to distract us by the people that
live before it and want you to live in the same way. He tells him that at least go do it somewhere where he can't see you. Aren't you ashamed? He says to and if you're still finding in yourself the ability to sit into this old way of law, when at least when the Angel of Death comes tell him I won't go not yet.
He says who can resist the angel of death. It doesn't take permission from anybody. He said, aren't you ashamed? He said if you're still able to see that when the angels the guardians, the denizens of the fire come to drag you away, fighting them off.
He says someone who can bear that he says
live on this earth, eating from a tea provides kantai for a moment cannot delete that for a second are no match for that the angels of the Hellfire aren't Jewish he shall do about these first verses. You know, he says there is no greater return or wind or Warner in the poor. And then the likes of these noble verses and those like they're like all throughout the forum. He says that the scholars have struggled for us an example to bring this a bit closer to home, he says, he says I imagine
there's a team that is known to be a killer.
unchallenged, that is supremacy.
He kills without hesitation, whoever wrongs him, whoever crosses him.
And he's there and this executioner is standing there ready by his side. And the execution table is laid laid out there. And the sword is still dripping with blood from the last execution.
And with this king also are his wives and his daughters. And this lady kills his property. Those he has perfected jealousy over. He says, Can you imagine anyone in that setting, thinking of any immoral wrong fantasies about his wives, daughters, someone stealing advance is one of those women is women, the king's women?
He said undoubtedly, without drawing comparisons to Allah, Allah azza wa jal has more knowledge about you. He is more watchful of you, he is more painful to kind of what Allah as a Punisher, and his sensibilities with he is protective of his boundaries, his rules to kind of die. And so for sure, the person that was in that setting that would ensure that it was under the Kings eye, he'll be horrified he can't wait to the moment he leaves that that scene heal is hard to be trembling is I will be locked stuck on the ground glued to the floor. Likewise, when a person notices these things,
this causes heart to be contented.
This causes him to fear. And that drives me to perfect his deeds. And that's why this verse here says what? And he created after knowing everything about you, he created the heavens and the earth and his throne is upon the water to test you who is best, who is most perfect in their deeds.
He didn't say he was the most deeds, he said, Who has the best deeds. And that is what you read on Instagram. If you notice accelerometer, the one that has the most explosive is beads. Giuliani said and asked the prophets of Allah.
Muslim What is this excellence in these What is it said, and the province of the law explained
the path to get to it. And he said that it said, and terribly the woman can make a tarball for England around for 11 years. It's for you to devote yourself to a love as if you see him. And if you cannot see him, then you know he sees you. That is the greatest determinant that is the greatest Warden to be watchful that Allah sees you. That is how you perfect your deeds.
You know why? Because you could have laws in your deeds all of us. And we keep brushing them aside, and then fear like a whip wakes us up. That's not the right. You know, like you saying, I'm a good employee, I do my job I do everything I'm supposed to do. Then why is it that you change your behavior or you're more on your toes when there's a you know, there's a supervisor president on the floor? Why is it that in family problems a person says I didn't do anything wrong? They were wrong. And they hold a grudge for years and every once in a while he says maybe I kind of overdid it. No, no, no, I'm not gonna apologize. You keep ignoring these flaws of yours until you get scared
until that relative gets struck by a car or they're about to die or about to die. The fear brings it that's why they set up near the loosens they used to say and how physiological Philippon, you will see will be my while they are playing in your shed. You mean you used to be a fan?
him he says this fear is so healthy. It's like a Lancer in the heart that shows you what's hidden in the corners, good evil, it tells you about your flaws, the external and the internal. Nobody can know them about you. How do you find out with this field? That's how you perfect your deeds. That's how you perfect yourself. You know in the end of solitude, a large religion speaks about this. And he says to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam after
Talking about watchfulness perfecting your needs through noticing how I was watching the end of the sources for stepping now be straight walk the path Kevin Middleton as you were instructed not as you want as he wants walk this path as you were instructed women tab America you and millions that repented with you what a total vote and do not cross your limits in level of demand.
Because he is over what do you do watch.
The scholars have noticed the iron in navasota Lavanya misses the profits of a love wanting to sit alone never smile. After this it was revealed
his hairdo whiteboarding, some narration or other narrations this was the hardest thing and sort of
be straight as you were commanded. And you and those who repented with you and don't, don't go overboard, you see because you're on the straight path shaytani will try to get you to go right there go levels to go over to go under those that repentance with you repenting is from you falling shoulders, preventing us from a city that's one way to leave the bad weather. And going overboard, that's better. That's to add to the religion. So whether you're not doing the religion is telling you or you're doing more than the religion is telling you. Both of those are departures from the path. And I love once you perfectly Street, how do you perfectly straight by being conscious of
Allah is watching. This is the message of food. And when you go home now, read it in that light. And then read now we have the concept better read about the prophets, who were his professors, I saw Scilab in certain aspects until he became the greatest teacher ever. Among those who learn from them. That doesn't mean they're superior to him. I thought it was much superior to them. They had to learn from him, right? According some he wasn't even a prophet, but he had to learn from him. Likewise, these profits he was admitted through solitude are referred to
as our role model. He was admitted to students who need to their university what they were like when they were watchful of Allah, fearful of Allah perfecting their deeds because of that. And so the first of them I'm sure you already do you want to be sure I'm sure I want his people rejected him that people have met you. He says to them, well, Tommy Landry, meningococcal Oh, by the people do not be driven by my difference from you, my
conflict, my dispute with you, right, I'm, you're saying I'm dissenting. You're saying I'm a rebel. You're saying I'm an outsider, you're saying I just I betrayed society and betrayed the culture, I betrayed everything. Do not be prevented by your hatred of me, basically, because you hate hate. Don't let that stop you.
Don't let that prevent you from the truth like a Jedi Mind.
And you see
what I mean to be very, don't be driven by your hatred of me.
So get into a situation where you are afflicted by the punishment that happened to the people of Saudi or the people of North and the people of loot are not very far off. You know, their stories telling them. You know why? Because you don't want a person being someone that usually is a big reason why they don't hear them out.
and
telling them listen, I know you. I know you think I'm a bad guy, but just hear me out. Leave me out of it. I don't even want the credit. repeated many times we have money, man. I'm not asking for any money. We're
asking for any credit at all. You don't even have to be one of my followers. That's what we say the prophets they had to follow. But that's the concept tell them
what you just hear me out because he understands that this hatred will stop people from accepting advice. But what's even more beautiful about that is that he knew that they hated him and he didn't stop giving them advice and wonder when a person wants to be aware of truth in this theme you want to be a carrier of the guidance of Islam you can never never never allow things to get personal
the heck with them I don't need them they go to the Hellfire didn't want to hear their loss you know how many things they've done to me right to allow things to get personal you know many people they quote that know how to get set up for example made against these people go on. And now you like the disbelievers you know a lot tells us that you
know how to use Salah was revealed to find a mob lady you mean allegedly homemaker in London, but nobody's going to believe anymore from your people that said they kept out no
What else is going to believe? Those that already believe? Do you have that from Allah? When you know how to use
them because they're gonna mislead your slaves and they'll never give birth to anyone
except someone who's an ingrate, someone who's wicked. Do you know that could not have said that we're not telling him that first sort of boots? That don't misunderstand, don't misquote that. Do not let things get too personal.
You know, who
you are what you read about credit, the beginning the first story and a lot else and just build a ship. What else on food can he begins building the ship. And every time a group of his people pass by him, they made fun of every time no exceptions. Some reports say it
was quite an extended very long, 150 years just calling his people live versus save. The people would tell their children.
When you pass by this guy to close your ears make fun of he's crazy. He's building a boat in the middle of the desert with no water inside. He's insane. He's mad. So the adults and the children are making fun of him.
That has to be very, very painful. And it is not the first time or the second time someone spitting in your face for 20 years, it just a person has eliminated.
But what's even more difficult than that is when it seeps into your own house. Not even mind people, not my neighbors, not my countrymen, my wife betrays me now. And she starts saying the same thing. And then at the end of the story, he finds out that his son was those that was affected by peer pressure. And he's calling him crazy. He's calling us calling him a destroyer of our drive to destroy our nation.
And we'll follow that movie and
ride with us when the water begins falling from every direction geysers from the earth and water from above. He says ride with us
carefully and do not be with the disbelievers. Some scholars said Don't be with the disbelievers. He didn't even know his son was hiding it from his dad, that I don't believe in you. I think you're crazy.
And that's going to hurt more than everything else. And some of the scholars said he knew what he was saying Do not be with the disbelievers. Meaning even if you'll be trading even if you hurt me more than anybody else. Even worse than you drowning Don't be with the disbelievers meaning in the hereafter. He didn't say don't be with those who drowned. He said Don't be with those who are disbelievers. Because that's the worst thing. And a person does not have faith until he loves for all of humanity, what he loves for himself, regardless of how they treat you. And our profits a loved one. Instead of learning that lesson loud and clear. The hypocrites will be trading with the
toughest hours, he would make a lot to forgive them when they die. Those that insulted him and accused his wife of adultery and betrayed him at the Battle of Waterloo. Every way you can imagine he still wanted to bury them and pray for them. And he did talk about the head of the hypocrites until
the prophets of
the majority had a fee for your UI to be nasty. Maybe your thing is not a company until you love for all the people your brothers in humanities means as a no explains what you love for yourself. So it's not about how they treat you. Every person you ever meet. Allah is watching. He is your turn on them. It's about you, your faith being completely you being aware that I was watching how are you going to react to this? What's it going to look like? And so nobody says Oh, my son Riley will be Don't be able to better disbelievers.
And his son says to him, I do what everybody does in Thailand. And that's perfectly logical, but he wasn't paying attention. This wasn't a normal flood. And this is something very scary. You will love the rest of the story of the prophets and probably no doubt.
But a lot of this, this is the story. There are kids in America and in the West and in the globalized world.
He's building a boat.
He's building a boat boats are carried by water until the very last community, the water is right there. It can't get any more obvious. The kids just at that point. It's too late. He's not paying attention. It's just water. We've seen rain all the time and you're sinking funds 100 times we know how to handle it. Likewise, you know, I just had a beautiful reminder yesterday about the concept of a person with one eye at the end of time causing people to disbelieve is like what do you mean? Like how does that even possible the brother was saying when I first read about the jet it says a matter of when I was spotted my lowly I know this guy, but it's been normalized and you won't notice when
you have cartoons and
One big eye in the middle, and you have singers with the hair on when I am covering and you have one eye on our bill, the one eye concept is very old. It's ancient. It's before the problems of a love audience. And it will happen until the end of time. And now when a person comes to it, no, it's just like anybody else.
This kid thought it's normal. It's just the flood as obvious as it was. And he says,
I was young tropical mountain refuge, he was protecting me from the water Canada.
He said, Nobody can protect you from the fear of Allah commanded a lot today, except the one he has mercy on the believers. One had a number of knowledge. And then we separate them.
And he was a little bit drowned.
And so the ability to see through all of that, that is by the fear of Allah, that they were able to be watched, whoever betrayed them, betrayed them, whatever hurt hurt, you continue know how they ceramic still made your eye for some of us and Don't do it. Don't make your offer your child. He's not from your family. He belongs to a different people. He's the son of steeds is a person of misdeeds. That's how Muslim needs to be to be straight with a mob recognize him to everything. You know, there's a brother that attends your message, this message via who told me a beautiful story last week, and the reason he became me was because he wished to be with a girl, a girl, and he was
not allowed to by her father, except that he becomes Muslim first. So he became Muslim and her father kept challenging him intellectually. Until this person was grace became more and more committed to Islam, and the girl refused. And so we had to leave her and the father of the girl, encourage this young man and said to him, Listen, my daughter, my daughter, you need to worry about yourself, you're going to stand in front of Allah.
Allah knows you and knows my daughter, I can't be trading because you walk away from my daughter. That is stretchy. And that is what the prophet will reiterate. After the break, perhaps we'll read one, before we close
the people of solid food, they came to him with a threads and they said to him,
You are a nobody, you are dispensable, we will kill you. And they said to me a solid phenol
or solid you used to have regard with us.
Before this was this
sometimes the truth that you bring a beautiful message to the truth and bring all your friends, the truth that you carry, simply carrying or sharing it with others could make you you know, the party winner because you're going to remind them that they don't really say that you're the person who's going to stop being the jokester that makes fun of people really well for a living or for his, you know, his reputation amongst his friends. You're going to be the person that always changed the subject says you know what i heard in the football already scenario, or you're going to need that diversity and not everyone's gonna like that. You used to have regard for we used to have regard for
you before you came with this, you know,
perspective. Look at the perspective. He says to them, you have told me it is the moment people are entering.
What if I had some clear proofs from my Lord?
And he granted me a mercy
like I have the gift of Islam, and you want me to walk away from it? You want me to ignore it? Do you want me to stop sharing the familiar?
Who's going to save me from a month I disagree? Like you're threatening me that I'm gonna lose all my friends betraying a love now that's a threat. This is something
I use all the time with the truth. This is not a threat. This is not something you threaten me with. I am a person that has a degree this giving you know sometimes you never know people say like, are you like a stalker when he tried to convert me when you speak to coworkers or anything like that I'm trying to convert you. I'm trying to share with you the most valuable thing in my life. And I think it's worth it when I need to share it. If this is the last thing you ever hear from and you want to end the relationship. You still deserve to hear this. But who's gonna protect me from if I didn't share it? Because you may listen and even if you don't, I will be protected by all levels. I shared
the message, even if the management comes into the union and says one that is
boot camp legally can be rude mean what you have to do, again, that's a message of love would not destroy a town, bring his punishment upon the people. So today is all about people that were destroyed, he says, but I would not bring punishment upon people because of the justice. While there are reformers among them means Among these, the people that know don't keep silent, everybody's busy.
And if the punishment comes, they become too few the punishment comes, these people get resurrected on their intentions. And it's not even just that you betrayed them. But when you keep signing my brothers and sisters, you betrayed the people as well as a brother in this community who called me up or a friend of his sent a text message to me this week, and says, I don't know what to do, like, my parents are gonna know that.
I tell him It may be sour in the first minute. But this is the best thing you'll ever do for your parents. You're also betraying your parents by not telling them so as an offer stranger just let it go Sadie's.
And then,
the last time you close that I'll share with you. He says to these people when they threatened him a different answer. He says in neusiedl overshadow anybody.
I want to testify to hear me, and you hear me as well, you testify as well, that I have nothing to do with these things you're associated with all with this mostly mean dude in
the room. So go ahead and exact follow through on your threads.
And then who it says go ahead all of you together, get yourself together and go through with your threads. what not to do. Don't even give me any time give me your best shot, go for it. This is a heart that fears on Monday can't hear anybody else. And in a macro
level.
If you were healthy, have you ever been afraid of anybody?
fearing that they're taking too much of a size in our hearts, then who that is isn't the next day.
Mom and Dad but he lives
in Nairobi.
And he says I have put my trust in Allah, my Lord and your Lord, there is no creature except that he grabs him by the head and he controls his destiny.
Indeed, my Lord is upon a straight path. Meaning My God won't break his promise to me.
Mail module didn't make it It knows that fear and fear him accurately and have that balance of hope and fear inside of us. May Allah guide our children, protect them from this belief in hypocrisy, protect them from the mere pressures around them, protect them from the elements of society and government. I mean mail bombing is of those that carry this flag of truth with pride. And never be those that get filled with hatred because of the hate of others for prejudice because of the prejudice of others. Male laws do not make us of those that are fearful of those that they also love them and guide them and bring them all to him upon guidance, meaning of love and you know, the
love of
life, you know?
Imagine
