00:00:00 --> 00:00:09
			Today, my dear brothers and sisters, I wanted to talk about a concept mentioned in the Quran
something that is very unique to the Quran and the verses that talk about
		
00:00:13 --> 00:00:16
			in sort of October verse 36, Allah azza wa jal talks about
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:24
			the count of the months of the year, the lunar year in the shoe holder in the law, he is now short
of Shahara.
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:30
			That that a year with Allah azza wa jal is made of 12 months.
		
00:00:34 --> 00:00:40
			And then Allah azza wa jal says of them mean how often how long are these months?
		
00:00:41 --> 00:00:43
			There are four that are sacred.
		
00:00:45 --> 00:00:46
			And we just started
		
00:00:48 --> 00:00:49
			these the sacred months.
		
00:00:52 --> 00:01:21
			You see the Prophet sallallahu alayhi salam, the Quran doesn't explicitly mention or tell us what
these four sacred months are? Quran Allah the Quran sunnah. Mahila assured Hello. Your call min
Harbottle. The Quran says four of the 12 lunar months are sacred months. Further the entire year of
course is important and sacred but for our sacred they hold very special status. What are these four
months?
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:27
			Where is the mention of them? You will only find that in the prophetic tradition.
		
00:01:28 --> 00:02:00
			Tell you to see or Colita al Amin Harbhajan from fistula never wait till more Tahara a 3030 and the
Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam thus establishing the status and the importance of sunnah. Without
sunnah you can't have the religion. What are the four sacred months? Oh Allah, let the Prophet tell
you about it. And the messenger of Allah Azza wa sallam tells us that the four sacred months and I
want everyone to pay attention insha Allah to Allah, you don't need your smartphone while you're in
the hutzpah inshallah we'll be concluding soon, inshallah.
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:03
			The four sacred months,
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:23
			taught by the Prophet sallallahu alayhi, wa sallam, three of them are consecutive. Come, they come
right, right after each other. And one stands alone by itself. So the prophet tells us, the sacred
moments are located there, which is this one that has just started few days ago. Don't
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:31
			worry, we'll hit ya. And the month of the ledger, which is next month, where shahada Allah Hilma
haram.
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:36
			And the month of Elmo haram, these three months are back to back.
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:49
			Then what Raja? Allah the Boehner Shaban what oh my god, I have one. What are your hola the Boehner
Shabana Jumada. And the month of Rajab, the seventh month which is before Shabbat.
		
00:02:51 --> 00:02:54
			Right? And so these are the four sacred months.
		
00:02:56 --> 00:02:57
			So
		
00:02:58 --> 00:03:08
			what is that unique concept that I wanted to discuss with you today? That is mentioned in this
verse? So now that we know the sacred month, what does Allah Subhana Allah commanded us to do?
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:15
			Allah azza wa jal says fella totally Morphe hints for SATCOM
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:33
			make sure that you do not wrong yourselves during these months, this sacred period, make sure that
you don't wrong yourself. Make sure that you don't do a lot admit to yourself, make sure that you do
not you are unjust or unfair to yourself.
		
00:03:36 --> 00:03:38
			So the Quran introduces this
		
00:03:39 --> 00:03:40
			concept
		
00:03:41 --> 00:03:45
			that seems to that appears to be unique to humankind.
		
00:03:47 --> 00:03:53
			Allah Subhana Allah in the Quran tells us that we as human beings are capable of wronging ourselves.
		
00:03:56 --> 00:04:02
			We are capable of compromising our well being.
		
00:04:04 --> 00:04:07
			We are capable of being self destructive.
		
00:04:09 --> 00:04:12
			In spite of the fact that Allah azza wa jal has honored us
		
00:04:13 --> 00:04:14
			and endowed us
		
00:04:15 --> 00:04:17
			with the greatest gift,
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:29
			which is intellect alkyl and the ability to reason and know what is right and what is wrong, yet we
human beings, especially when we do not follow divine guidance,
		
00:04:30 --> 00:04:37
			have the tendency to wrong ourselves and be self destructive. So Allah Subhana Allah says,
		
00:04:38 --> 00:04:42
			Don't be self destructive, and especially in these four months.
		
00:04:43 --> 00:04:45
			What does it take
		
00:04:46 --> 00:04:46
			for us?
		
00:04:48 --> 00:04:56
			other than Allah azza wa jal decried, declaring these four months, months where you're not even
supposed to be self destructive. You're not supposed to run yourself.
		
00:04:57 --> 00:04:59
			So the question here that begs itself is
		
00:05:00 --> 00:05:06
			is how, how could one be so unjust so unfair
		
00:05:07 --> 00:05:09
			to himself or herself?
		
00:05:10 --> 00:05:27
			How long can an elderly man insane on EFSA cave? Allah azza wa jal in the Quran over and over again
in the Quran tells us that human beings are self destructive, and they have tendency to wrong
themselves. In America, Allah Subhanallah you will do well given
		
00:05:28 --> 00:05:31
			that we have presented a man of trust
		
00:05:32 --> 00:05:37
			to the heavens, earth, and the mountains 5am in the house,
		
00:05:38 --> 00:05:40
			and they declined to receive it.
		
00:05:42 --> 00:05:42
			Realizing
		
00:05:44 --> 00:05:45
			how heavy it is,
		
00:05:47 --> 00:06:01
			and that they're not capable of carrying this trust. We're hemella Helene Hassan and human being
accepted it and received it in the whole kind of illumine Jehovah and indeed Allah Subhana Allah
says, man is
		
00:06:02 --> 00:06:04
			capable of severely wronging himself.
		
00:06:06 --> 00:06:21
			Allah azza wa jal in the Quran over and over again when he talks about people who have earned the
Wrath of Allah azza wa jal says while I'm out while I'm now what I can count on him avoiding me, or
why am i Well, I'm not when I can one on one for him. We did not wrong them, they are wrong
themselves.
		
00:06:23 --> 00:06:28
			We as human beings have a long history of doing things that are self destructive of wronging
ourselves.
		
00:06:30 --> 00:06:31
			The first
		
00:06:33 --> 00:06:34
			was that
		
00:06:35 --> 00:06:36
			of Adam Alayhis Salam
		
00:06:38 --> 00:06:41
			that led to Adam being expelled from Jana.
		
00:06:43 --> 00:06:56
			And then we continued this pattern as human beings. So we are capable of being self destructive of
wronging ourselves. So Allah azza wa jal tells us do not wrong yourselves. And by the way, even some
of the best of us,
		
00:06:57 --> 00:07:28
			right? Allah subhanaw taala says, so lucky to have another, you know, I mean, Eva ADINA, that we
have given the book to those whom we have chosen of Our servants, people receive the Quran and
people, you know, memorize it, and all of that, and Allah azza wa jal says, and they are divided
into three categories, even the best. I mean, one of them, Wally Malinowski, he, someone who is
wronging himself, may Allah subhanaw taala help you and I overcome this, this issue and this
challenge.
		
00:07:29 --> 00:07:31
			So what are the kinds of things that we do,
		
00:07:33 --> 00:07:43
			in which we wrong ourselves, that we need to really take a hard look at our pattern of behavior,
lifestyle, and some of our bad habits
		
00:07:45 --> 00:07:48
			and make a change, a conscious change,
		
00:07:49 --> 00:07:52
			especially in these sacred days.
		
00:07:53 --> 00:08:00
			of them? Is our lack or our inability to control our emotions,
		
00:08:01 --> 00:08:05
			too, to control our temperament and get angry.
		
00:08:07 --> 00:08:08
			of them
		
00:08:09 --> 00:08:09
			are
		
00:08:11 --> 00:08:23
			some of these diseases of the heart that cause us to transgress against other people? Because
something that many of us don't realize when you wronged others, you're actually wronging yourself?
		
00:08:24 --> 00:08:33
			I'll give you an example from the Hadith of the Prophet salallahu Alaihe Salam, How hard have we
worked? Or do people work in the month of Ramadan?
		
00:08:34 --> 00:08:38
			And in the days after the month of Ramadan, and in hajj,
		
00:08:39 --> 00:09:10
			or preparing for Hajj many people, they work so hard, read the Quran earn good deeds, every
opportunity there is for them to give sadaqa they do. Why because especially believers and today I
am indeed addressing the believers, and I hope to be one of them. I'm addressing us, my dear
brothers and sisters, those of us who want to earn Allah subhanaw taala as pleasure those of us who
want to save themselves from a very painful punishment on the Day of Judgment, those of us who want
to save
		
00:09:11 --> 00:09:12
			ourselves and our family.
		
00:09:14 --> 00:09:15
			From
		
00:09:16 --> 00:09:28
			a day Allah azza wa jal says, On that day, nothing will be of any benefit. You Oh my God, I am so
mad when I've been on your wealth nor your children will be of any benefit eliminate Allah have you
been studying?
		
00:09:29 --> 00:09:35
			So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam tells us how we engage in these self destructive habits.
		
00:09:37 --> 00:09:42
			He talks about a person who will who will come on the Day of Judgment with piles of good deeds.
		
00:09:44 --> 00:09:44
			Yet
		
00:09:46 --> 00:09:47
			in their lifetime,
		
00:09:48 --> 00:09:57
			they have wronged people and the others lashed back at people abused this person and that person
		
00:09:59 --> 00:09:59
			walked all over.
		
00:10:00 --> 00:10:13
			or other people exploited people took advantage of them, thinking that they're doing themselves a
favor, and in fact they were wrong. And in some cases, maybe people know that they're wrong someone
else, but in fact they were wronging themselves.
		
00:10:15 --> 00:10:22
			So the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says that this individual will come on the Day of
Judgment with all of these offenses.
		
00:10:23 --> 00:10:31
			And then on the Day of Judgment, Allah azza wa jal will allow their victims and they are victims.
Every person that we backbite is a victim,
		
00:10:33 --> 00:10:38
			whose flesh we consume. Every person that we lie to is a victim.
		
00:10:39 --> 00:10:42
			Every person that we physically,
		
00:10:43 --> 00:10:46
			verbally or emotionally abused is a victim.
		
00:10:47 --> 00:10:50
			Every person we violate is a victim.
		
00:10:51 --> 00:11:00
			So all these victims, Allah azza wa jal will allow them access to this individual's good deeds, once
they make a claim and their claim is established.
		
00:11:03 --> 00:11:10
			When no one will be able to use any excuse, and these individuals will come and they would want
their good deeds or they would want to be redeemed.
		
00:11:12 --> 00:11:34
			And Allah azza wa jal will allow them to access and this individual due to these bad habits, or that
individuals failure to control their bad habits and their emotions now will have to pay on that day,
out of their good deeds out of their hard earned good deeds on a day where an individual will wish
hope and be willing to give up
		
00:11:35 --> 00:11:49
			his entire wealth and everything that he works so hard for except their good deeds, everything else
you're doing would you remove law we have studied him and other beyond me that not only their
wealth, but also they would give up their family and everything.
		
00:11:50 --> 00:11:59
			When I Nicoline, FC Mavala, whenever anelli cleanups in Bournemouth, Marfil RGJ me and want me to
the home I will have to be
		
00:12:01 --> 00:12:22
			so on that day people, money is not going to be of any value. Family family relations will be of any
value. Right? On that day, the currency, the only currency that would matter our good deeds. So
people come and they start taking away from this individual until this person runs out of funds are
these
		
00:12:24 --> 00:12:29
			the only thing that can be redeemed and that person will be dragged to hellfire will hire the
biller.
		
00:12:30 --> 00:12:36
			And that's when the individual realizes that his pattern of his bad habits,
		
00:12:38 --> 00:12:50
			his offenses, things that he didn't care much about things that she didn't pay attention to and
didn't care what it does to other people, thus the day when it will come and haunt them.
		
00:12:51 --> 00:12:54
			And on that day, they realize how much they have wronged themselves.
		
00:12:56 --> 00:12:58
			So my dear brothers and sisters, we have an opportunity
		
00:12:59 --> 00:13:15
			to really take a hard look at our lifestyles, behavior or pattern of behavior. Rather than say, What
have I What are the things that I'm doing? In which I'm really wronging myself
		
00:13:16 --> 00:13:19
			and ruining my relationship with Allah subhanaw taala for
		
00:13:20 --> 00:13:24
			and can I, Allah azza wa jal has invited me during the sacred months
		
00:13:26 --> 00:13:26
			to
		
00:13:27 --> 00:13:29
			bring that to an end.
		
00:13:31 --> 00:13:33
			And ask Allah Subhana Allah for forgiveness.
		
00:13:34 --> 00:13:43

00:14:05 --> 00:14:18

unfortunately nowadays, especially with social media and the way

			our social relations have been
		
00:14:25 --> 00:14:26

			and trying to expose them

			for God. And he said, Yeah, man, I shall be discerning or you who have proclaimed to accept Islam
