Morad Awad – Tarbiyah Lesson 1 Allah is In Control

00:00:00 --> 00:00:02

			Salam Alaikum Warahmatullahi
Wabarakatuh Bismillah
		

00:00:02 --> 00:00:05

			Alhamdulillah wa Salatu was Salam
ala Sunni, and welcome to this
		

00:00:05 --> 00:00:10

			year's tarbiyah therapy a series
Alhamdulillah. This series, we
		

00:00:10 --> 00:00:15

			chose to equip our youth and our
mentees with the life skills that
		

00:00:15 --> 00:00:16

			they need
		

00:00:17 --> 00:00:20

			the Eman skills that they need to
face this world that 100 in that
		

00:00:21 --> 00:00:24

			in the past, that'd be as we gave
them, the foundations of Islam.
		

00:00:24 --> 00:00:29

			And we also gave them the fluff
and the manners of Islam. But this
		

00:00:29 --> 00:00:32

			year, it's go this semester is
going to be very unique in sha
		

00:00:32 --> 00:00:37

			Allah Tada. So our first subject
topic and this is something that
		

00:00:37 --> 00:00:42

			our mentees already discussed with
their mentors of 100. Allah is
		

00:00:42 --> 00:00:44

			Allah is in control.
		

00:00:45 --> 00:00:49

			And the reason we chose this is
because Allah subhanaw taala is
		

00:00:49 --> 00:00:54

			the one that is in control of
everything. But do we really know
		

00:00:54 --> 00:00:59

			and understand that is the
question. So before we even begin
		

00:00:59 --> 00:01:02

			about talking about how Allah
subhanaw taala doesn't control,
		

00:01:02 --> 00:01:08

			want to ask everyone? What are we?
Yeah, you that's looking at this
		

00:01:08 --> 00:01:11

			that's watching this right now?
What are you?
		

00:01:13 --> 00:01:17

			You are a creation? He said your
creation, then that's 100%
		

00:01:17 --> 00:01:22

			Correct. You and everything around
you? Is Allah subhana which is
		

00:01:22 --> 00:01:26

			creation, He made you he didn't
make you for nothing? Did he make
		

00:01:26 --> 00:01:29

			you for a reason? Or for no
reason? Do you think Allah would
		

00:01:29 --> 00:01:33

			just create something and leave it
out there? For no purpose? To just
		

00:01:33 --> 00:01:37

			live its life and die as if
nothing happened? Absolutely not.
		

00:01:37 --> 00:01:42

			Allah is the old infinitely divine
and infinitely knowledgeable. So
		

00:01:42 --> 00:01:46

			Allah created you for a purpose
and for a reason. So let's
		

00:01:46 --> 00:01:49

			discover this purpose in this
reason today. Insha Allah tal.
		

00:01:50 --> 00:01:55

			Today, we want to know that Allah
subhanaw taala created us for the
		

00:01:55 --> 00:02:00

			reason and the purpose of worship,
not worship in the sense that I
		

00:02:00 --> 00:02:04

			want to stay in the masjid and
pray Salah all day, but no, to
		

00:02:04 --> 00:02:09

			intend the pleasure of Allah in
every single thing that we do
		

00:02:09 --> 00:02:15

			because we are Allah servants.
Yes, we are servants. We are
		

00:02:15 --> 00:02:17

			slaves. Hey, wait a minute.
		

00:02:18 --> 00:02:21

			I'm not a slave. I know you're not
a slave. You're not a servant to
		

00:02:21 --> 00:02:28

			anyone, except for Allah subhanho
wa taala. And that servitude makes
		

00:02:28 --> 00:02:33

			us honorable and makes us
dignified and makes us never be
		

00:02:33 --> 00:02:37

			enslaved to any other human being
or any other creation out there.
		

00:02:37 --> 00:02:41

			Because we can only be slaves to
one to Allah subhana wa Tada.
		

00:02:43 --> 00:02:45

			So I want you to look at every
single Allah created around the
		

00:02:45 --> 00:02:50

			world in the universe. Think of
every single human being,
		

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54

			how many meals do you have every
single day?
		

00:02:56 --> 00:03:00

			Okay, you might have breakfast,
lunch, or dinner, some people have
		

00:03:00 --> 00:03:05

			a brunch, right? Some people have
snack here and there. Some people
		

00:03:05 --> 00:03:09

			have five meals. If you're a
bodybuilder, I don't think you
		

00:03:09 --> 00:03:12

			are. But if you are, then you
probably have like six or seven
		

00:03:12 --> 00:03:16

			meals a day. But think of every
single meal that every single
		

00:03:16 --> 00:03:20

			human around the world is having.
How many meals is that?
		

00:03:22 --> 00:03:24

			It's a lot. Think of how many
drinks,
		

00:03:25 --> 00:03:29

			how much water and juice and
everything they could possibly
		

00:03:29 --> 00:03:35

			drink. Okay, now think of every
animal and how much they eat, and
		

00:03:35 --> 00:03:38

			what they eat every single day. If
you have a cat,
		

00:03:39 --> 00:03:42

			than you know, you can see how
many times it eats every day. But
		

00:03:42 --> 00:03:47

			if you have a lamb, that thing is
eating every single hour every
		

00:03:47 --> 00:03:52

			single day. It's just eating as if
it lives the who is providing for
		

00:03:52 --> 00:03:56

			all of this creation every single
day. Allah subhana Dawn
		

00:03:58 --> 00:04:01

			Do you think we should stress what
we're going to eat? What we're
		

00:04:01 --> 00:04:05

			going to drink, if Allah subhanaw
taala already promised every
		

00:04:05 --> 00:04:09

			single one of us that he's going
to give us and provide for us.
		

00:04:09 --> 00:04:13

			Because if He created us for a
purpose, then he's not going to
		

00:04:13 --> 00:04:14

			take our souls before we
		

00:04:15 --> 00:04:18

			fulfill that purpose. So he's in
control.
		

00:04:19 --> 00:04:23

			Allah is taking care of you. Allah
take care of us Allah saying and
		

00:04:23 --> 00:04:28

			care of everyone, and humbly and
not a blind man. So now we need to
		

00:04:28 --> 00:04:33

			put our trust of Allah and know
that He created us for this
		

00:04:33 --> 00:04:36

			ultimate purpose and that He is in
control of it.
		

00:04:38 --> 00:04:45

			So sometimes, things may happen.
Sometimes, we missed dinner. We go
		

00:04:45 --> 00:04:48

			to sleep. Sometimes we're hungry.
We don't go to the ER, we didn't
		

00:04:48 --> 00:04:49

			go to the lunch break at school.
		

00:04:50 --> 00:04:52

			We forgot our lunchbox at home.
		

00:04:54 --> 00:04:57

			We feel we may feel like we're
going to start that day. Oh my
		

00:04:57 --> 00:05:00

			God, what's gonna happen to me was
		

00:05:00 --> 00:05:05

			stomach hurts I'm so hungry. You
know, sometimes things happen in
		

00:05:05 --> 00:05:07

			you may feel like they're wrong
for you.
		

00:05:09 --> 00:05:13

			Sometimes you're going to an
interview or you guys are going to
		

00:05:13 --> 00:05:18

			school or, and a flat tire called
and you haven't been absent or
		

00:05:18 --> 00:05:23

			late the whole entire year. But
that day, you got into an
		

00:05:23 --> 00:05:26

			accident, may Allah protect us all
you you got a flat tire on the way
		

00:05:26 --> 00:05:29

			to school, and you got to change a
flat tire. So you'd have to be
		

00:05:29 --> 00:05:30

			late to school.
		

00:05:32 --> 00:05:37

			Why did that happen? You might
feel like it's wrong. But guess
		

00:05:37 --> 00:05:40

			what, for a long, it's actually
the right thing to happen.
		

00:05:41 --> 00:05:47

			Because Allah subhanaw taala wants
this to happen to you for a
		

00:05:47 --> 00:05:51

			purpose and for a reason. Because
if it didn't happen to you, you
		

00:05:51 --> 00:05:55

			would never have fulfilled the
purpose that He created you for.
		

00:05:56 --> 00:05:59

			So that's why a believer says the
100 in love for everything that
		

00:05:59 --> 00:06:01

			happens to them, and 100 in 100
in.
		

00:06:03 --> 00:06:07

			So sometimes, you know, I think,
as a believer all the time,
		

00:06:08 --> 00:06:13

			we should understand that Allah is
the one that's in control.
		

00:06:14 --> 00:06:16

			Do you ever get into a plane?
		

00:06:17 --> 00:06:22

			He said, Yes. Then who want to ask
you a question? Did you know that
		

00:06:22 --> 00:06:26

			pilot? Or the captain of the
plane? Most likely, you're gonna
		

00:06:26 --> 00:06:30

			say no, you did it. You just sat
in the plane confidently. And
		

00:06:31 --> 00:06:34

			instead of thinking about the
plane and how it's gonna get
		

00:06:34 --> 00:06:36

			there, the captain and does he
know how to fly? Or does he not
		

00:06:36 --> 00:06:39

			know how to fly? You're just
thinking of where you're going,
		

00:06:39 --> 00:06:43

			Hey, I'm gonna go see grandpa and
grandma, gonna go see my cousins,
		

00:06:43 --> 00:06:47

			I'm gonna go to this city and
enjoy my time, have vacation and
		

00:06:48 --> 00:06:49

			X, Y and Z.
		

00:06:50 --> 00:06:53

			We're not even thinking of the
plane, the pilot, why not
		

00:06:53 --> 00:06:53

			stressing that.
		

00:06:55 --> 00:06:59

			Because you're confident that this
pilot knows where you're going and
		

00:06:59 --> 00:07:03

			where to take you. If you're going
to Spain, if you're going to
		

00:07:03 --> 00:07:09

			Turkey, if you're going to China,
wherever it is that you're going.
		

00:07:09 --> 00:07:11

			If you're going there, you're
confident that that pilot is going
		

00:07:11 --> 00:07:12

			to take you there.
		

00:07:13 --> 00:07:14

			So I want to tell you something,
		

00:07:16 --> 00:07:19

			your life and the decrees and
everything that happens in your
		

00:07:19 --> 00:07:24

			life that is all prescribed to you
by Allah and he's taking you to
		

00:07:24 --> 00:07:29

			that destination that you're
ultimately going to go to. So just
		

00:07:29 --> 00:07:33

			trust in Allah and put your
confidence in him and know that
		

00:07:33 --> 00:07:37

			whatever happened is what he had
planned for you. And that way we
		

00:07:37 --> 00:07:42

			can truly feel like Allah is in
control. Salam aleykum
		

00:07:42 --> 00:07:43
