There was a story of a man with a plantation
and a slave,
a long, long time ago.
And this man was a person who indulged in sin.
And his, the slave was pious, and was God fearing.
So whenever the slave would remind the owner of his sins,
the owner would say, I know Allah, Allah is forgiving. Allah is
merciful.
So one day this owner asked the slave to plant the plantation with
wheat grain.
So he goes and he plants it.
And when harvest season comes, and it grows and it sprouts
when the owner looks at what sprouted, he notices that It's
barley, and it's not wheat.
So he told the slave, Woe to you. Are you a fool? I told you to
plant wheat and you go and plant barley.
He said, Well, I planted barley, but I was hoping for wheat to come
out.
I planted barley, but I was hoping for wheat to come out.
He said, Are you? Are you a fool? How is this possible? He said, No,
but you tell me how it's possible for you to indulge in all these
sins, and then expect for something else on the day of
judgment.
And it wasn't
it was time for this owner to come back to Allah. So he went to the
slave and he said, Well, Allah He, you're the first one, to show me
the truth. Indeed, I'm not planting the right seeds for the
Hydra. And because of this, I asked Allah to forgive me and I'll
never I'll never indulge in sin again.
And then he freed the slaves and he said,
not to call us you're free for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala.
Brothers and sisters, there's a theme in the Quran that's very
consistent.
And this consistent theme, it comes in all sections of the
Quran, in different forms and in different versions. And I'll
mention a few of them so that we can reflect on them in sha Allah
Allah.
Allah subhana wa Taala
he said I'm not Allah Xena am Anwar middle sila hottie kill my
OCD and I will. Clinical Fajr
and Allah subhanaw taala said if a man can mean and CheMin Khanna
forsaken lay a stone.
Allah subhana wa Taala asks the believer who's reading the Quran,
a question and it's tough him. When Allah asks a question in the
Quran He's calling us to answer as believers. So we should stop
whenever Allah asks us, because it's respectful to answer a
question that Allah asks us. Right? When when when someone of
respect comes and asks you a question. Do you just ignore that
person? Absolutely not. It's very disrespectful. But when Allah asks
you a question,
what should we do?
We close the most often we think, and this is exactly what we need
to do when we come to this ayat, Allah says
is the believer who does righteous deeds, like the one who commit sin
there is no comparison. There is no comparison. Allah gives us the
answer.
Just in case we are thinking that well Allah He Yeah, you know,
yeah, Allah you're, you're forgiving and you're merciful and
you give with abundance. And the believer can get
the one who is a sinner can get the non Center and the center they
can both get 100 Allah Allah wa sallahu Allah saying, lower your
stone and the look
and but in another area, and this is so clear, and it has the star
bead in it that's that's just amazing. So till Jetha
Allah subhanaw taala said I'm hassy bollettino Terrassa yet
and Nirjala homecare Lavina M and what I'm it'll slowly hurt so
we're on Maha mama metal certain amount of karma
and do the people who acquire sin Allah uses acquire now I'm here to
say that he doesn't say I'm you know, he says it's Tara who? From
the root word Jarrah.
All right, when we when we refer to animals of predatorial nature,
like, you know, sea bass, dogs, wolves,
you know, lions and so on, we refer to them as Joetta.
Why? Because they're predatorial. They're very animalistic. They
acquire their thing like with ferocity right? When they acquire
the what they want to eat.
So Allah subhanaw taala said, I'm Hacienda Dena, Tara who say Yet
those who attain sin, almost in an animalistic way. They don't even
realize what they're doing. Animals eat and kill and devour,
and they don't even know what they're doing.
Allah says, Do these people who acquire sin like this almost like
an animal, they think that we will make them like the ones who
believe and do righteous deeds.
So well on my home, when I'm at home, whether it be in this life,
or in the next life, set a maniac or moon, their judgment is
completely off and skewed.
They're judging judgment is completely often skewed. So Allah
is asking us to answer now, do you think
there will be the same in this life and then the next life will
lie if you do think it sat on my moon,
or judgment is wrong if this is what we're thinking, brothers and
sisters.
When
Allah subhanho wa Taala gives a believer
Allah gives a believer in this dunya and then the next.
And Allah replaces them not only with what is in the heart, but
what is in the body. And this is something that we notice in the
Olia of Allah, those who are more God fearing, we noticed that they
get Quran that Allah blesses them with things in their life, that he
doesn't bless anyone who is a sinner.
If we look at the history of some of the Taliban and the type of
EWTN, and, and the set of asylum, after that, we noticed that
the ones who are closer to Allah subhanho wa taala, were the ones
that were more pious and God fearing and the ones who avoided
sin more and Allah gave them in abundance, like Ibrahim had been
Adam, for example, was one of the greatest, or one of the most
gracious Yonny of his generation.
Ibrahim and Adam got to a point where they would they would see
instances of him like on a ship, for example. And the waves are
covering and almost any brain rhythm would be completely calm
sitting in the cabin of the ship.
And the ship would almost turn over. And the people would tell
him, what are you doing sitting down?
Don't you see that we're about to die?
And then he said no, and I am confident in Allah subhanho wa
taala.
So they call upon Him and He says, Yeah, Allah, you showed us your
strength. Now show us your mercy and pardoning.
And they said, it was a matter of minutes before the ocean subdued,
and everything was calm again.
It was also narrated as he was traveling, and these are these are
real stories as he was traveling. They said a lion came to attack
them. So Ibrahim had been Adam, as everyone was scared and about to
run. He said, he said, Oh lion, if you came to take something that
Allah decreed, then take it.
But if you came,
and there is nothing that Allah decreed from us, for you, then
leave it put its tail between its legs, and when it turned around.
Mohammed bin wasa before one of the battles. They saw Him invoking
Allah and making dua.
And when they saw him making Dora they would assume that that's it.
This is a victory of Flawless victory. Because if this person
comes then that's it. He's from Olia Allah.
How is it that a person gets to this level?
It's not through sinning. And it's not through negligence, and it's
not through animalistic behavior and it's not through indulging in
what Allah subhanaw taala displeases, but it is constantly
being conscious of Robben Island men
I'm constantly being conscious of Allah subhanho wa taala. Brothers
and sisters
we all want to be
in this fold. We all answered the same answer to the questions Allah
asked us in these verses. We know that the one who indulges in sin
is not and will never be the same as the one who does not.
What can we do this month to change that?
This month is the month of forgiveness, and the month of
mercy and the month of trans transformation for the believers,
especially for our younger brothers and sisters. With Allah
He there is nothing more pleasing to Allah than seeing you young
brother, sister, in the state of Toba in the state of repentance in
the state of going back to Allah subhanaw taala. There's nothing
more pleasing to Allah than seeing you suppress your show up,
everything in your body, all these animalistic tendencies. And
everything that Allah put in this body of yours being suppressed.
You're at the prime of following your show up. You're at the point
you don't you don't have experience in life. You didn't see
what other people saw in the 4050 years of their life. You have
Chawan that equate 10 times any one of the elders whether it be
Sharla for money or Shaohua for for Zina or Shaohua for for
anything,
but you continuously try to suppress it, subdue it and connect
to Allah. And you approach Allah in this blessed month of Ramadan
in the form of Toba. There is nothing more pleasing to Allah
than that.
All of us here are worshipping and we come but if you want to please
little bit al Amin,
you have that in your hand young brother or sister.
So let us please Allah subhanho wa Taala this month, let us make a
commitment
to be from those who subdue they're no fools, their inner
desires, connect to Allah and let's start this journey to become
from those who believe in do righteous deeds so that Allah can
reward us with the life and the afterlife that He promised us in
the Quran. We ask Allah subhanaw taala to bless us with and through
the Quran. And to make us from those who apply it's halal and
haram. We ask Allah to purify our hearts and we ask Allah subhanaw
taala to guide the young hearts of this community to him and we ask
Allah to preserve them and to keep them firm on his path. We ask
Allah to guide us and to guide our children and to guide our spouses
and to preserve our faith. I mean, you're blind I mean, Allahumma
