			after praising Allah Zilla jetted Subhana, Allah to Allah and testifying that none is worthy of our
worship, and our devotion and our love and obedience in the absolute sense of those two words, but
Allah and Allah alone without any partners, and that the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam was in truth without doubt, his servant and His Prophet and his messenger. And after
reminding myself and you with the topo of Allah subhanho wa Taala.
		

			It is reported that some of the early Muslims would frequently see and express Alhamdulillah he
Allah and aromatic Islam were kept behind Emma,
		

			all praise all thinks is deserved by Allah for granting us the favor of Islam. And that by itself,
Islam on its own, is enough of a favor.
		

			One year ago, last winter, this message received the phone call
		

			about a woman who had become Muslim and then died. And she had it documented that she wanted her
final rites to be carried out in the Islamic way. And none of her family was Muslim. And so they
reached out to what Google suggested, which was us. And so I had to meet them at the funeral site at
the graveyard and two brothers from this message had met me there.
		

			And all three of us, we left that DeGeneres and we prayed on her at the gravesite, and we buried her
and we gave a few words of condolences and reminder to her family. But we all left thinking the same
thing. This is not how we are used to Jenna is being carried out. You see, because you may or may
not know, it is very uncommon, unless the person is very famous or wealthy. And it's you know,
people are curious and they come out in big numbers. Ordinarily people outside of our religious
community don't have Jeanette is the way we have it. And even when they do again, it's a it's a big
name, a public figure. And they're they're just out of
		

			interest, curiosity, fascist fascination, unlike us when we come whether we know the person or not,
and if you could look around to people's faces, our eyes are down, our lips are all murmuring. We're
praying for them and our own disease that passed before them very different. That was the first
thing that caught everyone's eye from us three brothers. The second issue was when we found out
later, the first one was the explanation for the second. Apparently, the caretakers of the graveyard
tell us it is very uncommon for the family of the deceased to leave, and let us actually lower the
body in the grave and throw the dirt upon it. I was standing there, I couldn't believe it. We're not
		

			used to this. I said you're going to let someone else put your family away someone else is going to
do it.
		

			And I realized the reason why people don't come and the reason why when they do come they're so
haunted by the graveyards, they actually explain this to me. And they leave right away with the body
there and the workers take care of it is because they don't have a belief system regarding regarding
the afterlife, what happens after death that can reassure them and so they want to get away from
this it's too raw, it's too real for them. And what is beyond that is unknown. And so I it had me
thinking for this entire year, and hamdulillah Allah nematode Islam Praise be to Allah for the
blessing of Islam. And Islam on its own is enough of a blessing. You know, especially in this year
		

			when we've lost so many people due to COVID, or just ordinary deaths. We've lost loved ones, we've
lost neighbors, we've lost scholars, we've lost so many people in 2020 it had me remember this, that
Islam is not even just the name, of course, it's the greatest nearmap felt once you actually leave
this world as a Muslim as a believer, but it's also such a great need a favor in terms of it
offering you some understanding to give you peace in terms of
		

			Slam offering you a coping mechanism not just when you die, to be to receive salvation, but for you
to understand and process and deal with your loved ones dying around you.
		

			Because you know us as believers, we know what happens after death. It's that simple. It's that
basic but that beautiful. You know, there's one Hadith that is reported attributed to the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam when he said, he that's how Allah Dooku Maha who fell you have seen
katherina who for whom he has our own a few kobori him elfi and Fanny him. When you are preparing
your brother when one of you has the responsibility to prepare his brother for the funeral, let him
give him a good trout. Because they visit one another in these graves or in these droughts. This
statement of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the scholars debate whether he actually said it
		

			or not, because you know the concept of the shroud supposed to be very simple, very basic, as you
know about Islam. But they don't debate that the second part of the Hadith is absolutely true that
there is visitation meeting interactions engagements that happens between the people in their
graves, because there's so many a hadith about it. it's crystal clear to us. That is the point this
is not up for debate with a Muslim that knows what his prophet said and what Allah zildjian said
before him so Pena who was the Allah in the hadith of Al Bara incident everyday was very famous,
highly authentic hadith the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us that when the believer is
		

			that his time of death, the Angel of Death takes his soul and hands it off to angels right away. He
doesn't hold on to it for the blink of an eye. Angels from Paradise come behind autoimmun agenda
with perfuming oils from Paradise work fan immunogen and trout from Paradise, and they take his soul
right away and they wrap him up. And then they ascend with him through the skies.
		

			For you, suddenly I lay him in Cooley summer in Newport, rabuka, and the highest ranking angels the
nearest angels to Allah in each level of the sky. They pray for him. They're set up station there to
rinse him and purify him, meaning with their do their prayers. And so he's going through that, and
then the process continues. I want to rush to a later part of the Hadith. When he is returned back
down into his grave. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he said for tuna v autohelm. Meaning
and then they bring this believer over to the other souls to meet them the souls of the believers,
for whom I shall do farahan v Min haidakhan Bihar EV Yakubu more LA and they receive him with such
		

			delight such festivity, more so than any one of you is delighted by an absentee a traveler, a long
lost person an absentee that finally arrives they are happier with them in the way they embrace them
the way they received them.
		

			And then he said sallallahu alayhi wa sallam for lunella Hamada. Allah phoolan mamatha. What
happened to so and so what happened to so and so, because he is the most recent incomer? Right? He
knows the most updated news about this world that he just left for coluna Darrow who had a steady
and the others tell that group, leave him alone. Let him go so he can rest he just one journey, just
let him be. You know how when someone you miss so much comes, he's got 1000 questions for him. And
then some wise person again is Whoa, let the guy sit down, let him take off his shoes. Let's give
him a sip. It's one of those moments. And so they say had a steady, they're all who fell in there
		

			who can feel homey dunia.
		

			Leave him alone, he just left the misery of this world, this world that we're in. So think about
that as the janazah or at the death of our loved ones. We are in pain and it is okay to be in pain.
It is natural to be in pain. It is merciful to be in pain. You shouldn't be in pain, when about your
loved ones. But that pain doesn't break the believer because we are certain on the other side for
the person who Allah allows to die a believer. There's a celebration, there's an E happening.
They're telling him they're telling each other. Yeah, don't remind them about that world. That world
is horrible. Here's the real world. Here's an enjoyable world. Like Yes, you want to be connected
		

			with your loved one. But that loved one also is reconnecting now with people he's been missing
forever. His own parents or grandparents or siblings or children.
		

			And so the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam told us that all of this happens. And so it braces
the believers benefits are so much
		

			no matter what we hear, no matter what we're going to hear one of the Sahaba used to tell the people
do you love Jenna?
		

			Or the Imams you say Do you love Jenna? They would say of course he says no, that there's no way to
get to gentlemen except that death has to happen. It's just a necessary evil that has to happen. You
got to go through the door and one of the Sahaba themselves used to say
		

			No news is happier for me than hearing about the death of one of my brothers. He doesn't mean he's
not hurt by it. He's saying I alongside the pinch alongside the pain, the agony I'm so happy for him
that's the end of his pain. Because I know this from Allah subhanho wa Taala from his messenger
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
		

			hamdu lillahi wa salatu salam ala Nabi Avada Chateau La ilaha illallah wa sharika or shadow Anna
Mohammedan Aveda who whenever you who are a solo.
		

			So unlike the souls of the disbelievers who are trapped in their graves and in their punishment, the
soul of the believer is unrestricted is left to roam and left to celebrate. They meet each other and
they say, Did you Don't you remember that time in the masjid that time and thought are we that time
we reach the fundraising goals together the charities? Do you remember that time and this event or
that event the Hajj or Umrah? Do you remember this? Do you remember that and they rejoice about
these things, and they give each other glad tidings of their award that is awaiting them. Soon as
the judgment starts, we're almost there. This is great.
		

			As a matter of fact, we also know part of the Nirvana of Islam in terms of coping mechanisms. We are
told in Islam that these souls at times can meet the believers or the people that have not yet died
us. In what sense?
		

			Not that we speak to them or make them out to them or any of these things, of course, but listen,
Allah subhanho wa Taala suggested this clearly when he said a la jolla telephoned enforcer, Hina
Mota, Allah pulls back the souls when they die. Well, let's see lamb temotu female anatomy and he
also collects the souls of those that are not dead at their moments of sleep. That's temporary death
for UMC coletti cada la Hellmuth and he keeps back he withholds from returning to this world, those
that actually died while you're seated O'Hara and he sends back the other souls, the ones that were
sleeping Elijah de musella, until their appointment happens. And so the souls come together, those
		

			that have died and those that are sleeping at times. And that is not just the soul of the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam which is clearly established, if you truly see his actual image, as the
Sahaba described, then you've seen him, but it's not just him.
		

			The Sahaba used to see each other after their deaths and they will tell each other I am fine. Tell
the believers to stay strong. Tell them so and so stole my shield and then they wake up and go to
his house and find his shield.
		

			And that is why Allah Subhana Allah Allah told us also that the believers that are close to Allah,
let him win Bushra Phil hayati dounia. Phil Akira. Allah sends them reassurances that is the purpose
of the dream meetings, the meetings in their dreams, sends them reassurances in this world and in
the Hereafter, not just their, he reassures them about their loved ones reassures them that they're
on the right track reassures them that this is the way they need to go. This reassurance in the life
of this world, the scholar said he wrote your sadhika it is a true vision that Allah discloses to
the believers, like interacting with loved ones. And so with all of the pain that we have seen, and
		

			May Allah, Allah generate this world of COVID, and every and every ill, but it will not entirely go
that is the nature of this world. So we are given the mechanisms to cope with it. And before I close
while we are on this point, one of the
		

			many incidents, the most recent of them, we received troubling news this morning, of the death of
the father of our sister, we have neither the father in law of our brother who shall know what are
some of the most active and present core families in this community. We ask Allah Subhana Allah
Allah to raise his rank and purify him of his sins. We ask Allah azza wa jal to grant us all life so
long as life is good for us and put us to death whenever he knows that death is better for us. May
Allah console all those who are grieving. And may Allah who gathers us in his house time and time
again upon his obedience gather us by His mercy for these reasons in the highest for those in the
		

			highest gardens, where all pain and all loss and all anguish and all disease and all hurt and all
tears can come to an end. I love them. I mean, a lot inoculant our hammer, a lot mouflon our hammer,
