00:01:00 --> 00:01:07
			to begin, oh, praise and glory be to Allah, Lord of the worlds the supreme kings who kind of want to
honor we thank Allah.
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:54
			And we seek the help of of law and the guidance of Allah and returns will not invoke a law seeking
forgiveness for our sins. And we seek protection within from the whispers that incessantly arise
within us. And from being haunted by the consequences of our evil actions one day, for whomever our
law guides, this is the truth is to give the world these gifts that no one can take away. And
whoever lives Elgin keeps the guidance away from none can provide. The whole world cannot provide
guidance for such a person. And we justify that no one is worthy of our worship and our devotion and
our lives, and our love and humility and surrender in the most absolute sense of those words. But
		
00:01:54 --> 00:02:04
			I'm not alone finding partners, that the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was his last
and final prophet whom Allah said as a mercy to the words.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:51
			I asked him to make his one of his most blessing homes in the earth, and I asked him not to allow
this listenership to remain open until the day of judgment. And I asked him what to make this house
of his a reason for the believers to come in and feel welcome and benefited by and I asked a law
firm of seven sky Supermen for us to make this a place where people's faith can be nurtured. And it
can be an incubator for their conviction and the conviction of their children and the children of
their children. I love them. I mean, I asked a lot to make us realize that no one can allow this to
happen. And for us to express and show our poverty, our desperation before him, and our gratitude,
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:55
			our proper gratitude to him among them that I need.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:03:03
			So I know Romeo the alone time and he says then when we went out with the prophets, Allah lawani
you're setting them in the bachelor
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:06
			way Oh, my full name you need
		
00:03:08 --> 00:03:08
			to come
		
00:03:09 --> 00:03:16
			around that day when you are so impressed by your numbers so impressed by the accomplishment. So
high, you
		
00:03:18 --> 00:03:23
			can also buttons on the model it will send a message as one that Hemis
		
00:03:24 --> 00:03:34
			on those on that trip, when the messengers have a low or they do something that would break the use
of the whisper like these additional words that we couldn't get what he was saying, I didn't
		
00:03:35 --> 00:03:45
			leave enough for holding totally valid, he noticed that they notice. And he said did you catch that?
You notice what I was doing?
		
00:03:47 --> 00:04:08
			They said yes, he also long lost corners of a couch with a V and with an MDR I The reason I'm making
these whispers is that I remembered one of the previous prophets of God or to Judo that vehicle with
me that he was given great warriors a great number of impressive warriors among his nation.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:11
			For a venue kaffee will have
		
00:04:12 --> 00:04:13
			our menu.
		
00:04:14 --> 00:04:25
			So he said to himself, he was impressed who can ever contend with these people who can ever stand
and fight in the face of these people?
		
00:04:28 --> 00:04:32
			For our lovely lady at the game,
		
00:04:33 --> 00:04:39
			and so it was really inspired to him by Allah pick one of three things for your own
		
00:04:42 --> 00:04:44
			color and loosen their
		
00:04:45 --> 00:04:56
			own face that we have that their enemy he given the upper hand against them and they finish them
off. And we jeweler or the guy of mass starvation,
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			kata le movies, or just some
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:02
			Southern epidemics something that causes them to die
		
00:05:04 --> 00:05:04
			first.
		
00:05:06 --> 00:05:09
			And so he went to his people knowing it was their feet.
		
00:05:11 --> 00:05:14
			And he said to them, which should we do?
		
00:05:16 --> 00:05:24
			That he knew that he can he lake and Tara viola, they said to him, we'll leave this to you. You are
the prophet of God after all.
		
00:05:26 --> 00:05:43
			God as a foreigner for lab work can do either face to face you're in Uppsala. And so he got up and
he prayed, and this was the this was the way of the prophets whenever they were frantic. Whenever
they were concerned, they would frantically rush to prayer. And so he said to
		
00:05:44 --> 00:06:01
			me, man, I do fella. What am a judo fella. When I keep the notes? He said, Oh, I love the enemy No.
and starvation, no, let it just be another form of death. A quick death, perhaps is what he
intended.
		
00:06:03 --> 00:06:10
			for Sunday barley, he will go to South Africa to a yummy format, I mean, the moons of Luna alpha.
		
00:06:11 --> 00:06:16
			And so and that overtook them for three days.
		
00:06:18 --> 00:06:21
			And 70,000 of them died in that period.
		
00:06:22 --> 00:06:28
			The province alone Lavoie to you it was said that he commented on this incident and he said
		
00:06:30 --> 00:07:24
			for him see levy Taro and neiafu Allahumma Vika who, when we can also do what we can party, he says
this whispering keep hearing me say I am saying all of love by you, by your help I different a who'd
had a very meaning I've uncovered are exposed. I'm vulnerable, even in this army. I'm only protected
by you through you I am protected. What we can also do and why you do I advance the defense and the
offense and by you to accomplish anything Do I make ground? Do I achieve what because sued by you,
I'm able to move forward, what became robotic and only by you only through your help, am I able to
stand and fight.
		
00:07:27 --> 00:07:29
			And so I begin with that incident.
		
00:07:30 --> 00:07:40
			because very few are those that can notice what the prophets of Allah Vallejo send them notice. And
he as Allah wanted them to be in the times of accomplishments.
		
00:07:42 --> 00:08:03
			You know, for the past three years, they've been trying to expand this machine. The brother is
involved in this administration. And they were on course for collecting the amount that this machine
was built with in 15 years. That was the extent of the capacity. They could have been money in
pendants.
		
00:08:04 --> 00:08:26
			And there are so many massages that have the money and it's all present and available. And for
three, four or five years, they have neighbors that are frantic because of irrational fears around
Islam that are scoped by the media and the petition and campaign against them. And they cannot open
a building that they own a building that they purchase.
		
00:08:28 --> 00:08:55
			And some people have no money. And some people have the permits and get into the building. And then
this unit, he tears them apart. And sometimes they're all well intended. But because one person
wants to do certain things and other they find their head on collision instead of working in
parallel, all of them has a different reverse ID on how is the best way to utilize the space to
please Allah and it falls apart.
		
00:08:58 --> 00:09:18
			And so we begin this, this place this space of serving a law by saying it is yours own law. This is
no bodies efforts. This is no shame. This is no personality. We lower heads and say if it wasn't for
you, it would never be
		
00:09:21 --> 00:09:22
			more of an energy.
		
00:09:24 --> 00:09:26
			He says Now let's get to
		
00:09:27 --> 00:09:32
			the movement. Even Tony I met Alan. Elaborate Hello God Allah left Russia.
		
00:09:34 --> 00:09:59
			He says I don't find a better figurative way expression to explain an example for a believer, a true
believer like someone who feels like he's holding on to a log in the middle of the ocean. You have
fuyao we are calling out to his caretaker is his master. His maker is nourisher this providers
protector is La la la la mg out
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:06
			have hopes that Allah will protect that Allah will defend him that our love will provide for him. So
kinda on one side.
		
00:10:08 --> 00:10:55
			Our prophets have a love wanting to send love when the greatest mystery was opened up for him, after
driving him out when he got to Mecca when he entered with his head lowered to say this is not my
accomplishment. Though he had done something that had not been done at the conquest of Mecca had not
happened in 2000 years. 2000 years The Art of War, they're feuding warring tribes eating each other
up. They don't understand law, they didn't understand unity. None of this, he was able to pull it
all together the first time in 2000 years and he lowers his head. Some reports say to the point that
the hair of his beard was tapping onto the back of the donkey erode out of humility to his Lord
		
00:10:55 --> 00:11:01
			SOHCAHTOA Dinah humility as a victor is allowed to sell, and also have
		
00:11:02 --> 00:11:07
			the exact same thing. You don't really want to live above your level either walks up to Hollywood,
		
00:11:09 --> 00:11:15
			who is his number one general, who is undefeated, and tells him to step down from the army.
		
00:11:17 --> 00:11:27
			Even some historians didn't understand the hearts of those who have that. They said the woman was
jealous of hadik because how can you understand that this man has never lost?
		
00:11:28 --> 00:11:37
			And you basically demote him to a lesser position? How do you do that? or all of the above answer
fluid, he understood it was not content.
		
00:11:38 --> 00:11:48
			And the biggest problem is for the army with success and victory, so they get caught. Because the
moment you start doing that, that's when everything crumbles.
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:53
			And this was from the genius and the perceptions of Roma.
		
00:11:55 --> 00:12:19
			He saw through it, because think about it, Claudia did what he did not defeat the province of solid
before he became Muslim, he became Muslim only 40 years before the Prophet died. So where it was
under that Islam, he led the armies against this law. And he didn't he was not victorious. And then
when no one told him to step down, the Muslims were still victorious, without Hadith of the unknown.
		
00:12:21 --> 00:12:35
			If we can just stop allowing the tangible, the material, the accomplishments, the worldly hijack,
our, our understanding, we our own method is successful when we transcend above that.
		
00:12:36 --> 00:12:39
			And so we see this message as a pure gift from Allah.
		
00:12:40 --> 00:12:49
			And we have to be very careful in how we treat that gift, and that we not take its presence for
granted, and understand there are no guarantees.
		
00:12:50 --> 00:12:53
			And then the second point I wish to discuss in the book
		
00:12:54 --> 00:13:00
			is that there aren't any guarantees regarding our worldly life, not in your normal life.
		
00:13:02 --> 00:13:09
			Ramadan was not guaranteed for you to live until now. And it still isn't guaranteed that you will
make it until
		
00:13:10 --> 00:13:25
			I remember right after these last presidential elections, when many people were quite a bit unnerved
by the outcome. I said in my first book, why are we panicking, it's not the Day of Judgment.
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:32
			We can die before the inauguration and we would have much bigger worries once the test of this fight
is over.
		
00:13:33 --> 00:13:35
			And a few hours later,
		
00:13:37 --> 00:13:42
			a brother in law one of our directors here in the community passed away before the day was out
		
00:13:44 --> 00:13:48
			last year, so there are no guarantees whatsoever.
		
00:13:49 --> 00:14:00
			And so if a law allows you to see one more Ramadan, to see till another day, ask yourself why is he
doing that? Why me?
		
00:14:02 --> 00:14:03
			Why am I so privileged?
		
00:14:05 --> 00:14:09
			What have I done to deserve this? One more robot
		
00:14:10 --> 00:14:19
			inserted into the imagine the law what the law says that there were two men that became Muslim at
the exact same time.
		
00:14:21 --> 00:14:29
			What can I do Huma, I said he had them in Swahili One of them was much more dedicated to worship
than the other one.
		
00:14:30 --> 00:14:34
			He says about one for us Fs two sheet
		
00:14:39 --> 00:14:49
			that will be sent out for mental and so that the more series of the two the more devoted of the two
went out into battle and he was martyred and his friend
		
00:14:50 --> 00:14:55
			remained for an entire year and then he died. Wasn't Marjorie died.
		
00:14:56 --> 00:15:00
			color for a two female young man and when I saw him, I said
		
00:15:00 --> 00:15:29
			Sleeping dream, get any better generality. As if I'm standing on the gates of gender, either an IV
Hema and then suddenly I found the two of them. The two those two men standing with me through
mahadasha Holly jumia, Jenna, for Houdini levena for Houdini levy mad at you in Houma, and someone
walks out of gender, and the one who died later, was permitted to answer
		
00:15:30 --> 00:15:51
			some faraja for who the lead is to shoot. And then he comes out again and he permits the one that
was martyred that digests need to enter Paradise. So Maha jatiya for all that he and that the two of
them came out to me and they said to me, it will check for a number of them yet Nina came back
		
00:15:52 --> 00:15:56
			and they said to me go back not yet for you.
		
00:16:01 --> 00:16:07
			He woke up in the morning and he went and told many people about this to the point that music would
reach the prophets of Allah
		
00:16:11 --> 00:16:20
			and so the prophets of Allah body you send them was not amazed like the other people were amazed and
he asked them in ha in Dr. Boone, what do you so surprised about?
		
00:16:22 --> 00:16:24
			Elisa? Mecca who
		
00:16:26 --> 00:16:38
			did this person live for an entire nother year? But of course he did. Call our ad Docomo bond
farmer. And he lived to see it on a bond. And so he faxed it over.
		
00:16:44 --> 00:16:47
			Canada what Canada said Dayton,
		
00:16:49 --> 00:16:57
			Western. And when he lived and made so many more prayers in that one year. He said yes. called
forever. They never
		
00:16:58 --> 00:17:09
			ever I don't mean Venus, he would. He said absolutely. For certain. The difference between them is
the difference between the sky and the earth.
		
00:17:10 --> 00:17:12
			Because of one more year.
		
00:17:13 --> 00:17:24
			The first one worked hard. But for a secret for a reason that Allah knows, he let the second one
gets farther, was elevated higher.
		
00:17:26 --> 00:17:36
			Why is that? Ask yourself about yourself? Because you might know about yourself. And you almost will
never know about anybody else.
		
00:17:37 --> 00:17:45
			And this is not just about getting the higher level agenda for our likes. For people like us. This
could be more about survival.
		
00:17:46 --> 00:17:52
			Why did Allah choose to give me one more? Does he want me to survive?
		
00:17:53 --> 00:18:06
			Maybe I need this one more than I realize. And so how will I respond to this offering of Allah that
was not guarantee and I just might get in a few hours of all of our stuff.
		
00:18:39 --> 00:18:42
			I want you to picture that you were diagnosed with the disease.
		
00:18:43 --> 00:18:48
			And you gathered whatever money you could and you gave it to somebody to travel and find your cure.
		
00:18:50 --> 00:18:55
			And they spent 11 months you spent for 11 months you're awaiting this cure.
		
00:18:56 --> 00:18:58
			In those 11 months you could have died.
		
00:19:00 --> 00:19:03
			In those 11 months he could have arrived and the tool wouldn't work.
		
00:19:04 --> 00:19:08
			What will your eagerness be like for that person to arrive?
		
00:19:09 --> 00:19:19
			Ramadan is the greatest cure. Ramadan doesn't just come to heal our bodies. Ramadan brings us
unfailing medicine, for our body and for our hearts.
		
00:19:21 --> 00:19:45
			Or picture maybe that you send someone with your life savings to invest it for you. And you're
hopeful they don't ruin your capital. Maybe they'll come back with some profit. You're dreaming.
What if you fantasize about them bringing a fortune, a fortune that could ruin you. A fortune that
can drive you into the Hellfire of fortune that could
		
00:19:46 --> 00:19:55
			be inherited before you enjoy it. You could die before you actually enjoy it. Is there a greater
fortune should there be a greater fortune
		
00:19:57 --> 00:19:59
			than the forgiveness of a boss soldier on Samana
		
00:20:00 --> 00:20:00
			God when
		
00:20:02 --> 00:20:03
			you know the IV
		
00:20:05 --> 00:20:06
			but how do you feel about
		
00:20:07 --> 00:20:23
			whomever sprays in Ramadan fast in Ramadan located and devotes themselves who feel that they get
forgiven? What is that worth to us? It is so easy about so crucial
		
00:20:24 --> 00:20:27
			the profits of the love audios and dimensions and what has he
		
00:20:28 --> 00:20:36
			about this season and the seasons life in many levels he definitely he never had. But
		
00:20:37 --> 00:20:42
			first I had back home and to see Beth who never had to
		
00:20:44 --> 00:20:47
			min rock meant to be fresh off.
		
00:20:50 --> 00:21:28
			He says you know on love sense breezes of this mercy, little bursts of His mercy throughout the days
of this world that he created for our rubble. So subject yourself to no one wants to go out and just
breathe some fresh air, find the cool breeze gets relief, he says to subject yourself to it to these
bursts of Allah's mercy, because perhaps a person will be will come in contact with one of these
bursts with one of these breezes, and he will never be doomed he will never be miserable never be
wretched after it ever again.
		
00:21:32 --> 00:21:57
			a burst of us forgiveness you know the people on the day of judgment will know the value of us
forgiveness we will all know it you know when I was so just says about the scenes and the day of
judgment and we need to revisit all of these scenes and understand the meanings of a buzz words and
give deep thought to this book in this month. Obama won, he says was so cool Matt and ham even for a
thought.
		
00:21:58 --> 00:22:30
			Let us want you to be perfect. Allah wants you to seek His forgiveness. Those that don't seek it.
Those that deprive themselves of it when it's so available, so easy. One scene a month says they are
given scalding scorching hot water to drink and it tears apart their intestines. Someone may ask why
in the world would someone drink this on the day of judgment? It's because he's been stabbed that
she's been standing for 50,000 years. It's because their throat has almost become stone
		
00:22:31 --> 00:22:56
			from how it dried has become it's because their insides are boiling the trinkets? A lot zolgensma
fmap a turkey vizu a big soup and other Yeoman piano is not the believer The one who is guided the
one who gets unless forgiveness is he not better than the one that shields with his face. That
horrendous punishment on the Day of Judgment.
		
00:22:57 --> 00:23:09
			You know you shield from your face like you shield when someone's attacking you you shield with your
hands you shield with whatever so your face is in hits. Why would someone shield with their face?
		
00:23:10 --> 00:23:17
			It's because their hands are tied up their feet on chain and so they need it head on.
		
00:23:18 --> 00:23:20
			And our laws so as it says what do
		
00:23:21 --> 00:23:22
			I mean by that?
		
00:23:26 --> 00:24:08
			In akuna What do you mean and when they are just touched by a breeze. You know the word that's how
we just visited Heidi? Left having scores love what you do on the barbecue, Neff hat is the is a
nice breeze. So when I was saying that nice breeze of the fire, meaning those who are touched by the
least the best case scenario and Jen number one they are just touched by a little bit of the
punishment of the Most Merciful he calls himself Robic your caretaker when someone does that to
themselves. They scream out hysterically and they say what is with us Oh we wish we could be
destroyed we wish that was an option.
		
00:24:09 --> 00:24:15
			This is the value for difference. This is what's available in Ramadan and before the month of
Ramadan
		
00:24:17 --> 00:24:54
			you know if you want to prepare for Ramadan, right, there are many things to be done. But the most
important of them that we can say in one minute in this whole block is for you to be truthful with
our with our love in this user. Truthfully Norma is wanting His forgiveness in repenting to him to
kind of or die because those people that said what it will do us destruction to us we were a lot I
mean a lot of zela jen says there's only two categories where men have yet to bodyboard whoever does
not repent. Then they are the wrongdoers they are running
		
00:24:55 --> 00:24:58
			and so a person needs to be real with a loss.
		
00:25:00 --> 00:25:18
			You have to be honest with him. Many people they say I can't do this because it's Ramadan. So
Ramadan for them is like a pause button, pause button on missing prayers pause button on the music
that pollutes our minds and hearts a pause button I'm arguing a pause but you are ignoring our
relatives.
		
00:25:19 --> 00:25:52
			It needs to be an eject button you remove the tape, you break it, you throw it in the garbage, it's
a new meme. And Ramallah comes to do that gives you a chance helps you lock some shape on brings
people you know to for the contagion of good deeds to feed off of each other incur all of that to
make it easy for you to unleash your potential and VMU you between a law surgeon and his slave that
has no one that will appreciate them like Allah, nor no more that deserves to be loved one on one.
So
		
00:25:53 --> 00:26:08
			we are must subject us to is diversity and protect us from this punishment. I think we are not
linked this message a beacon of light for the oneness of law and for the guidance of his messengers
have a long running guide us ended up alone nothing in our modern
		
00:26:09 --> 00:26:12
			world led can execute if the learner has led energy
		
00:26:16 --> 00:26:16
			done
		
00:26:17 --> 00:26:20
			this yet and then if you could use like, what's
