00:22:09 --> 00:22:15

Where your house will enter corner how the law that is an old party law William boulby for kobu how they're on fee.

00:22:16 --> 00:22:34

So he says the person who loves they put their time where they where they love and with the person they love. And they make sure that this time they spend with the one they love is the best of time. So they are present. They are there so not they're not just present with their buddy, but they present with their heart and their mind.

00:22:55 --> 00:23:05

So the person loves a lot they love to stand in the presence of Allah and Salah. And they strive to make these times these moments of solid the best time in their day

00:23:46 --> 00:24:31

So we might be making claims. I love this I love Allah I love you when you love a person who say oh I love this I love you and I and I value you right? But if you don't strive to spend time with that person, these are just you know claims. These are just claims when you love someone you want to spend time with them. When you love something you love to enjoy, you love to engage in it and spend time in it. That's a reality you cannot avoid but if you casually spend time with someone you don't have so much stuff for them. You don't have so much love for them.

People who love watching, you know, football, soccer and basketball, you find these people because they love these sports, they're going to put their time watching these and maybe playing them right. People who love reading and education you will find that they put their time in what they love. So how you spend your time and where you invest your time shows you exactly what your heart really loves. Period there's no joke about it you know, so such straightforward and such so clear. It's as simple as that.

What Willie mechanics is selected in the law, he has his origin Allah subhanahu kaballah man in a big Allah to Allah. Because Salah is very important for Allah, then Allah made it a prerequisite and a condition for the acceptance of all other actions.

then the rest of the actions will also be corrupted.

00:27:02 --> 00:27:09

So someone might be doing a lot of good actions, but if the Salah is not in good shape, these actions will not be accepted.

For him, Salah is the spring of his heart, and it brings life to his existence. And it removes his pains and his worries. And he comes to it at the times of hardship, he finds this a lot as the safe resort and the safe haven during the difficult times. This person is not like the person who sees the prayer as a burden that he just wants to get rid of.

00:30:30 --> 00:30:34

And he finds the Salah more of a constraint upon him.

00:30:36 --> 00:30:38

And then it is.

00:30:40 --> 00:30:58

Yeah, so he says basically, for the second person for the latter, it is a burden. And it's a huge obligation. But for the first one, the one who loves it is actually an act of elevation and transcendence. These are the ones that will pay him.

00:30:59 --> 00:31:36

So this is why the scholars just elaborate on this. Some scholars said the person who prays only with their body and they thinking about other things in Salah. Some of those people might be sinning. Why? Because you are standing in the Presence of Allah and the prophet SAW Selim says, either calm and do your solidly or with a comma had to confess Allah for in Allah Haryana, Cebu who de Bella Abbe de Madame el tivitz when you stand up in Salah, Allah subhanaw taala erects his noble face in front of you. And so Allah

00:31:38 --> 00:31:44

so Allah faces you in Salah in a way that befits His Majesty, we cannot understand this with our minds, but our hearts know that

00:31:46 --> 00:31:48

unless you turn away from Allah,

00:31:49 --> 00:31:57

unless you turn away from Allah. So imagine you're standing in Allah's presence, Allah is paying attention to you. And you are thinking of someone else.

00:31:58 --> 00:32:13

If I'm having a conversation with you, a chat we chatting together, I'm talking to you from my hearts. Or you're talking to me, and your mind is somewhere else. And I can see the signs. Isn't that disrespectful?

00:32:14 --> 00:32:24

I would feel offended. I'm talking to you and you're not even there. Why? Because your mind is with someone else over their husbands. Try this with your wife, she's talking to you.

00:32:26 --> 00:32:58

And you're thinking of something, something else? And she tells you you're not with me. So no, I just thought of something. Believe me, she won't talk to you for two or three days. Right? Why? Because it's offensive. It's offensive. I'm talking to you. You're talking to me. But you're not paying attention Your mind is you would rather be with someone else. So you are standing in a less presence, but you'd rather be with someone else. See how rude that is. So that's why we these people, the scholars said some of these people might actually be sinning because they pray because they just have to pray.

00:32:59 --> 00:33:10

But they don't see it as a good investment. Don't even give any value to it. Don't even feel that they are in the Presence of Allah subhanaw taala so it's very dangerous. It's very dangerous.

00:33:15 --> 00:33:15

Okay,

00:33:16 --> 00:33:26

a salon owner on film called The white shark on film, he Sala brings light into the heart and it brings beauty to the face. Brings beauty to the face How?

00:33:28 --> 00:33:37

He says the unknown Hello burwash man for Alberta homie Nori. He said because they stood in the Presence of Allah alone. So Allah gave him some of his lights.

00:34:05 --> 00:34:08

Allah gave them a light from him. So their faces illuminated

00:34:11 --> 00:34:54

for Salah to turn modal button button, you have a healer who will heya Sala brings about life to your inner state and to your outer state external state for usually who would you who western Iraq elbow so the heart the face enlightens and the heart is full of light. Carla said he Doman Colorado say yep Rahim Allah Saddam Hussein one of the tabs again he says in rajulio Saliba Lail.

00:34:56 --> 00:34:57

That's because of Salah at night

00:34:58 --> 00:34:59

for Yahoo

00:35:00 --> 00:35:20

manlam era when someone meets him and he sees him for the first time for your call, Nila Rajan, someone sees him for the first time he says, Well, I love this person. I feel I know him. I think he's so close to me, but that's the first time I see him. Why is this because of this Salah when someone prays from the heart for our last panel to add

00:35:25 --> 00:35:28

I just want to move since we don't have so much time

00:35:32 --> 00:35:42

to some of he gives here, six secrets to finding horseshoe and Sala six secrets that will help you find closure. And so I mentioned two of them in my code, but today

00:35:48 --> 00:35:49

he says

00:35:52 --> 00:36:39

I'm going to read something in Arabic and summarize it because it's beautiful and important. He says about Salah how people can find horseshoe and Salah he says it's not easy. It's not easy. And that was done purpose on purpose. It's not meant to be easy. But I'm going to read the Arabic a little bit then summarize it in English for the Arabs here just to get a taste as well have it those ones done Arabic. Waka jurickson nathu la he an akula Allah kado who work Allah Thurman who wapa but tomato Who? Allahu Allah who marry me. Why fabu we hold women? How will he were still he's saying, the way Allah creates his creation is that whatever is valuable, whatever is precious, a lot of them

00:36:39 --> 00:36:41

make it easily accessible.

00:36:42 --> 00:36:47

Allah protects it. So you will find treasures and gold usually hidden and buried right?

00:36:48 --> 00:37:18

fruits, you will not find fruits being exposed like this, you have to peel them off. Why? Because this kind of skin protects them protects them. Usually when people have treasures, they don't expose them and put them in a visible place. Right? They hide them precious things. that's a that's a that's a general rule universal rule. Whatever is precious is usually hidden. He will explain why. He says well, how did his son tell our happy family? Well, surely he will Java has

00:37:19 --> 00:38:13

this rule you will find it in fruits, things are not easily. And even the sweetest fruits By the way, the sweetest some of the sweetest fruits are not the easiest to grow. And some of the sweetest fruits, especially the exotic ones, tropical fruits are actually very hard to get through. So even their skin is spiky the skin is spiky so you have to go through so much pain to get that. So, so you will find this kind of rule in in the fruits and you will find it with golden silver and precious stones were tough enough it is in Africa it will loom and even in important sciences. And knowledge is not easily accessible. You have to work your way through a lot of studying and work to get to the

00:38:13 --> 00:38:48

most precious pieces of knowledge and understanding. So if it's given to you easily you will not appreciate it you will not even know how to use it. You have to go through that. You know through this skin, you have to go through a journey. So it says for in anfis ilumi yoruba ob NFC and the akun Effie Mata now what do you call the motor? How within console Oh motor elephant module, he says the precious knowledge it does not give itself easily it does not yield itself easily to lazy people or to hasty people it does not.

00:38:50 --> 00:39:02

It does not yield itself. Precious knowledge does not offer itself. So if you are hasty you want to get it overnight or give me the most important thing about knowledge. I want to learn it overnight you cannot get it knowledge will not yield itself to you. You will misunderstand it.

00:39:05 --> 00:39:35

As you know as simple as any knowledge if you try to learn knowledge overnight, you will misunderstand it, you will misconstrue it, you will not figure it out Why? Because knowledge grows with time, with comprehension with hard work and over and over and over again until your mind you know finds its way around it then it finds the secrets. So knowledge takes all of this work to really figure it out so you can get the best type of knowledge someone offers it to you. You cannot utilize it. You have to go through a journey.

00:39:36 --> 00:39:59

Okay, so it does not yield itself to someone who's hasty. And it does not yield itself to someone who's lazy. Who is not seeking for it. It doesn't. So, Bella boop demin holebas Mr. illume What wg FEMA Derrida watier aka huobi howard stern he has the poliana versity as minhwa that a journal article

You cannot find the beauty of salah and the fruits of Salah unless you do what unless

00:41:23 --> 00:41:46

you are truthful in your intention to get to the finish line with Salah. So you're really willing to put the work and the struggle and to offer it's the worry of for the Mahal as if it's like you know a wife that you want to marry and she's not easily accessible so you have to offer a big Dory, a big Mahalo to really be able to get out.

Love houfy funan inhibition

00:46:47 --> 00:46:52

this man has a very good reputation is very good reputation in matters of love.

00:46:53 --> 00:46:57

So he's a famous lover, lover of what level of Salah

00:46:59 --> 00:47:08

Well, are you gonna be coming through hubiera and no one can truly give you the best prescription than someone who's been through that experience. So take it from an expert.

00:47:09 --> 00:47:15

And Mr. Holloway, the first key he's saying it's the key of gratitude.

00:47:16 --> 00:47:48

What does that mean? He says, well, who had the unlimited natadola he suparna Hakuna who Acoma houfy? Heather McCollum, what a hula hula who were soccer hooligans Allah yummy lb What better and he had met a fellow Allah Subhana. Whom I can assure you, I mean, Derek Can I can also have it we don't have a BS en la sala mokulua, la isla Lima, Dana, one letter, so de la Selena, basically, that you should witness in your heart and experience fully. That the Salah is a gift from Allah a blessing from Allah to you.

00:47:50 --> 00:48:14

I said in the hotbar, I don't see that when you are performing your Salah that you are on the giving end, you are on the receiving end, you're not offering a lot of fever. You're not giving a lot of fever. By the way, when you make Salah. Not, it's a law that is giving you a favor, that he allowed you to pray. So it's the other way around. So you see yourself as receiving this on the that you have nothing to brag about, nothing to feel good about.

00:48:15 --> 00:48:56

But you just have to be thankful that so you see that it is Allah Subhana Allah who brought you to this position allowed you to pray, and he has enabled you to perform this. He says had it not been for Allah and had not chosen you for this, you would not be praying. So it's a last panel to Allah that gave you this gift of Salah, just as the companions used to say in the presence of the prophets of Salaam had it not been for Allah, we would not have been guided, we would not have given charity and we would not have prayed. So they say thank you Allah for all of these blessings. So when they do something they see it's Allah doing them a favor, Subhan Allah. Then he says, a lot of Montana

00:48:56 --> 00:49:01

says sort of fragility and well known alikhan Islamic law terminology Islamic umbrella.

00:49:03 --> 00:49:04

A man in control.

00:49:05 --> 00:49:23

You know, some of the Arabs came to the Prophet Solomon. They said, Oh, we are Muslims. We do this and we do that and we perform this and we perform that so they feel good about themselves, this self righteousness, and they have done something for Allah. Allah, Allah sent to the prophets of Allah and tell them you know, don't count your blessings on me if you are following Islam.

00:49:24 --> 00:49:35

There is no blessings there. You're not offering me anything. He says, Belinda, who yamano Allah come it's Allah. It's Alan's gift to you that you are actually have believed or have accepted a man if you are truthful.

00:49:37 --> 00:50:00

So don't see yourself ever offering a lot something when you believe or when you do something good. Or when you pray for that matter. Don't see yourself in that at all. You forget yourself completely. The only way you see yourself is that you are actually getting a blessing from Allah, that Allah made you a Muslim that Allah inspired you to pray that Allah designed the prayer for you that Allah allowed you to come and

00:50:00 --> 00:50:08

Stand in his presence. And Allah accepts the prayer from you and Allah pays attention as you are praying. And Allah rewards you for the prayer. So everything is from Allah,

00:50:10 --> 00:50:16

everything, even your ability, your intention, your willingness to make Salah is not even from you, it's from Allah.

00:50:19 --> 00:50:31

So basically, basically, you have nothing to offer, it's a last minute and so once you see this, your heart will melt in humbleness before Allah, because you know, you can't thank Allah enough.

00:50:33 --> 00:51:12

So what that does, it takes away your ego and Salah so you don't feel good about yourself. I'm making Salah, but you feel all this blessing, Oh Allah, I thank you for this blessing. I feel grateful, I feel humbled, because you are allowing me to do all of this, and you are inspiring me. And you have chosen me to be someone who prays and you have guided me to it. And you are giving me the energy and the body to perform it and the heart to be present in it. So I thank you. I want to express my gratitude in this moment and Salah, so I am praying in thankfulness. I want to express my thankfulness. I channeled that fact for thankfulness through my performance of Salah that's the

00:51:12 --> 00:51:15

point here. So that's the first key.

00:51:16 --> 00:51:23

He says, one wish I had the two minute Illa he had an macom tune zero called Buffy mahkamah Shakur. He says,

00:51:24 --> 00:51:40

observing that the Salah is a blessing from Allah to you. It's not something that you're offering a lot. It's a blessing from Allah to you. He says it allows the heart to, to to to arrive at the station of thankfulness and gratitude.

00:51:42 --> 00:52:00

That realization takes you heart into a station of the heart that is called thankfulness. And he says woman Zilla to shoukry tester regional lbs Anima female Oh Buddha and the station of thankfulness and Schuchat, it brings the best from the heart.

00:52:01 --> 00:52:15

So the heart gives its best when it you know enters that state of Chicago and thankfulness to Allah subhanaw taala for in other words is shook to Henry Cofield lb and Bella maknoon it

00:52:17 --> 00:52:32

because sugar the state of thankfulness. It brings about the best juices from the hearts. It brings from the heart the most noble parts of it the most noble aspects of it. Okay. The second key

00:52:34 --> 00:52:46

Mashhad will floss, the key of sincerity, he says we're in your corner herminia La Hoya de la hora de la la batalla abdillah when I had better hula

00:52:47 --> 00:52:55

basically sincerity means that what drives you What drives you to pray?

00:52:56 --> 00:52:58

Okay, what pushes you to pray

00:52:59 --> 00:53:02

is your love and you're longing for Allah. That's what a class is.

00:53:03 --> 00:53:12

So basically, you are praying in love, because you feel so much love for Allah. You want to express that love, the best way is Salah.

00:53:14 --> 00:53:29

It's the most expressive way to express your love for Allah naturally by Fatah. So that's why Salah is very poor. So that's what class means. Some people think a class or I'm going to do it for Allah, it's not a mental thing,

00:53:31 --> 00:53:56

if last comes from love. So he's saying that what drives you to make this prayer is your love for Allah, your love for Allah and the seeking and the eagerness to get Allah's pleasure that Allah is pleased with you. So you want to get this by any means and the best way to actually do this as the prayer.

00:53:57 --> 00:54:03

So you are praying in expression of your love for Allah and you're longing to him.

00:54:05 --> 00:54:07

That's it. That's what it means.

00:54:14 --> 00:54:19

He's saying well how the UK bottle assata salah and this is the biggest secret of Salah.

00:54:20 --> 00:54:22

This is the biggest secret consola

00:54:23 --> 00:54:45

Okay, Bill, who was your role higher. This is the secret of life. The secret of life. Woman fair to hold a philosopher who is the one who doesn't get floss, as we said that comes from love for Allah. He has missed every good. That said he's missed everything. Every goodness, he has missed every goodness.

00:54:50 --> 00:54:51

Okay,

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

the third key. So we have two keys. The first one is gratitude.

00:55:00 --> 00:55:07

You praying gratitude. The second one is that you pray in love, which is sincerity. The third is Mashhad Teixeira.

00:55:10 --> 00:55:13

This is basically the key of falling short,

00:55:14 --> 00:55:37

falling short, what does it mean? It means when you are praying, you have a realization that even if I offer my best prayer, and I put I physically I do the prayer well, and mentally I put my focus and my I put my heart completely in the salon I experienced the highest level of for sure, I still fail to give Allah his rights.

00:55:39 --> 00:55:48

I can't give a lot he deserves. You can put it this way, your best is not enough for Allah. Allah deserves more.

00:55:50 --> 00:55:52

Even if you offer your best Salah ever.

00:55:53 --> 00:55:57

Allah still deserves far better and far more.

00:55:59 --> 00:56:13

This is this should not make you fall in despair. But basically it's a realization that Allah is far greater than whatever I can offer. So my best is never enough. So what does this help you do? That helps you humble yourself

00:56:15 --> 00:56:18

humble and never see that you will paid a lot off.

00:56:21 --> 00:56:24

What does this give you? What else does it give you?

00:56:25 --> 00:56:48

It actually it becomes a motivation for you to even do better. So I gave my best or I had my best seller ever in my life. Now, my next Salah I'll make sure it's even better than the masala before and so on and so forth. And I know I will never give allies right. But as long as I die striving that's my journey. And that's my struggle.

00:56:50 --> 00:57:04

So these are very powerful keys by the way a few now, to make it practical. Once you start prayer just as the mother is making the karma, try to put these in your mind 1111 of them at a time one key at a time. So try with

00:57:05 --> 00:57:12

okay gratitude, say in this Salah. I'm going to live this allow experience the salon in the feeling that

00:57:13 --> 00:57:38

this Salah is a blessing from Allah, and everything about it is a blessing from Allah. And I just want to pray in thankfulness. I want to show a law that I'm really thankful and I appreciate this beautiful gift of Salah, this beautiful miracle. I want to show love, I am thankful so I'm going to appreciate it and I'm going to pray this Salah in this spirit and see how your Salah will be gonna have a different quality of your Salah, very powerful.

00:57:39 --> 00:58:07

Another salasi I'm going to do this Salah in love for Allah. So Allah I love you. I want to go back to you on the day of judgment and be close to you and live my life there in general be able to see your face and converse with you I just want to be close to you. That's what I want. And because of that love and I'm going to express that love by making the salad so I'm going to pray the Salah in love for you or a lot I want you to feel the love and see how you this Salah is going to be different as

00:58:09 --> 00:58:20

a third Salah what you can make is basically see see the greatness of Allah that no matter how good my Salah is, I will never be able to give Allah what he deserves.

00:58:21 --> 00:58:31

So Allah, our humble myself before you so you pray this, this third Salah, let's say in this kind of spirit, or Allah, offering my best, that's the best that I can in this moment.

00:58:33 --> 00:58:43

So please accept it from me. You deserve far better, but accept it from me. And I know that I will never be able to give you your right or to match what you truly deserve.

00:58:44 --> 00:58:50

And feel his blessing that even though you're not giving a lot he deserves he still accepts the prayer from you.

00:58:51 --> 00:58:54

Let's move on to the fourth key.

00:58:56 --> 00:58:58

Mr. Robert Misha, does anyone know?

basically

00:59:20 --> 00:59:23

measures Cisco knows this is basically

00:59:24 --> 00:59:31

to do your Salah in truthfulness. How can we put this in English put your heart in the Salah.

00:59:33 --> 00:59:35

Put your heart in this Salah.

00:59:36 --> 00:59:37

So pray

00:59:38 --> 00:59:40

the best Salah of your life now.

00:59:42 --> 01:00:00

Pray the best Salah in your life. Now basically, leave no effort, leave nothing you can do except that you invested in Salah to make a masterpiece and offer it to Allah Spanner to iron out in the salon that you are praying. That's basically means putting your heart in

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

Put your heart and soul in the Salah. Then he because he says that you strive to perform the Salah as best as possible in all parameters external like physical and inner in terms of the experience of your heart so your presence and you are experiencing spiritually.

01:00:22 --> 01:00:48

Okay, the fifth key and Mr. Harness, mesh Abdulmutallab, it will. Okay, this is the physical vessel of Sala. Basically, following the prophet SAW Selim and Sala that means you learn the Salah how the prophet SAW Selim prayed it, okay the manner of prayer, and you keep to it. So you pray as the Prophet solemn creed physically, that's the physical vessel.

01:00:49 --> 01:00:55

And that vessel is very conducive, and helpful for you to experience so lawfully.

01:00:56 --> 01:00:57

Okay.

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

That's the fifth, the sixth and the last one

01:01:04 --> 01:01:06

is a lesson

01:01:07 --> 01:01:16

and so on was the lesson is basically you reach a point where you pray your Salah, feeling in your heart, the Presence of Allah.

01:01:18 --> 01:01:37

And that's what he said and tabooed Allah, can you worship Allah, as if you see him? You are so aware and mindful of Allah and connected to Allah. Okay? That you get to a state where as if you are actually seeing a last panel Tada, you're so aware of Allah, as if you see him.

01:01:39 --> 01:01:49

As if Allah is visible to you, that's what it means. When something is visible to you, you cannot ignore it right? You cannot forget about it, you cannot grow heedless.

01:01:51 --> 01:01:58

So you are so aware of Allah and connected to Allah and conscious of Allah to an extent as if you're actually seeing him.

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

You get to that state of certainty with Allah.

01:02:04 --> 01:02:06

So that basically when you pray,

01:02:07 --> 01:02:21

you feel Allah is observing you. You in your heart, in your heart, you see Allah not with your eyes, okay? So that's not a vision. That's an experience of the heart. You're so conscious of Allah in your heart.

01:02:24 --> 01:02:30

That's the most difficult and that's the highest. And the more you work on the other five

01:02:31 --> 01:02:50

the easier this becomes, this is more of the icing on the on the cake. That comes after the hard work is why Santa is the highest level in the deen. It comes with so much work. So much dedication, so much connection to Allah subhanho wa Taala

01:02:51 --> 01:02:55

Okay, so I think that's enough, inshallah, any questions,

01:02:57 --> 01:02:58

who found something

01:02:59 --> 01:03:07

resonated with them something they actually did? What did you find that was something that stuck in your head? Okay, that's something that I'm gonna try.

01:03:19 --> 01:03:25

Know, because it's because building a career and doing all those things, and being sincere.

01:03:26 --> 01:03:31

You know, how do you how do you achieve what you say? And you know, that was the heart.

01:03:32 --> 01:03:36

So what do I need to do to get to where I need to be?

01:03:39 --> 01:03:46

As simple as that, when you come to the prayer, okay? leave the world behind.

01:03:47 --> 01:03:50

Okay? It's only Allah and you.

01:03:51 --> 01:03:59

And once you do the Salah, just be mindful of Allah, that you are now standing in the Presence of Allah and Allah is observing you.

01:04:01 --> 01:04:08

And he's listening to you and he sees you. If you pray in that spirit, slowly, slowly, you're going to find yourself getting into these issues.

01:04:09 --> 01:04:11

That's it. Simple as that.

01:04:13 --> 01:04:14

Hong Kong.

01:04:34 --> 01:04:35

Yes.

01:04:40 --> 01:04:41

We could understand

01:04:42 --> 01:04:44

his level of understanding

01:04:46 --> 01:04:48

how do we can make that

01:04:50 --> 01:04:52

the source in the brand or in

01:04:56 --> 01:04:57

this

01:05:04 --> 01:05:12

I'm just trying to think of something. Okay. Basically the question is, Satan received said that some people

01:05:15 --> 01:05:33

who pray at night and they pray to Allah SubhanAllah. Sincerely, there's light on the face as a gift from our last panel data. So where do we find something like this, or something about this in the columns and the person and there's a couple of ahaadeeth from the process and then what he says, There are people that when you see them, they remind you of Allah.

01:05:35 --> 01:05:40

There are people and these are righteous people. When you see them, you just remember our last panel

01:05:42 --> 01:05:50

in the sense their state and how they are either their face because they have so much love for Allah subhanaw taala you just realize it when you see them,

01:05:51 --> 01:05:54

remind you of Allah, they remind you of righteousness.

01:05:56 --> 01:06:00

So that's it man either at the color Kabila

01:06:01 --> 01:06:10

and another head if there are people that when you hear the recitation when either submit who you are on the khardungla some people you hear the recitation of the Quran, you just remember our last man attack.

01:06:12 --> 01:06:26

But that doesn't have to be directly like, not everything, like, Oh, where's the proof for this and local and the sooner was the proof for this. There are things that are logical and taken from the Quran the sooner so for example, Can't you tell?

01:06:27 --> 01:06:31

at a basic level, if someone is honest and righteous?

01:06:32 --> 01:06:50

And there are exceptions, some people can really fool others. Yeah, they can pretend. But for most people, if someone is dodgy, and they've done a lot of bad things in their life, most likely you're going to have a feeling towards them. We call it a sixth sense, right? Or intuition. That's just a common human experience.

01:06:58 --> 01:06:59

I understand what

01:07:02 --> 01:07:03

you just wanted the connection to the longest.

01:07:05 --> 01:07:07

Somebody when I was growing up

01:07:10 --> 01:07:14

to me, I never seen it. Like that person. so far.

01:07:17 --> 01:07:18

Okay, then.

01:07:20 --> 01:07:28

Somehow Nola, actually, as you're talking now, I just remembered something even worse when he makes the CEO of Sema and he will do him in a suit

01:07:29 --> 01:07:32

valleca methylome veto. Okay.

01:07:33 --> 01:07:33

So what

01:07:35 --> 01:07:38

if I told Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed?

01:07:43 --> 01:07:44

So such? Yes, so

01:07:48 --> 01:08:10

basically, about the companions of the Prophet ilmc Mountains, he will do him. I mean, as a sujood. The sign is on the face because of their sudduth. Some of them are serious. They said, this is basically that dark spot here from some people who pray excessively, even our best says no, he says that the light on the face of the people who makes it good for Allah is the brightness on their face.

01:08:11 --> 01:08:20

That's even adverse. So that's the connection to the Quran, CML and you will hear him in a third suit. So there's sine of securities on the face.

01:08:21 --> 01:08:29

So I mean, I bass, who's among the most knowledgeable of the Quran basically says that's the light on their face because of their subdued for Allah. subhanaw taala.

01:08:31 --> 01:08:31

Yeah.

01:08:37 --> 01:08:39

Which is the person

01:08:42 --> 01:08:44

he used to

01:08:45 --> 01:08:47

deal mostly with kids.

01:08:48 --> 01:08:55

Most of the time, when there are kids, he used to play with kids, but with adults, not that much.

01:08:57 --> 01:09:02

He used to be, I don't know. I have to see him as he did now.

01:09:06 --> 01:09:10

I was trying to I have to make an inspection to be able to

01:09:12 --> 01:09:15

to be able to give an answer. Well, hello, Adam. I don't really know.

01:09:16 --> 01:09:18

A lot. Well, yeah.

01:09:19 --> 01:09:21

No questions. Okay. Yes.

01:09:31 --> 01:09:32

Remember,

01:09:33 --> 01:09:34

basically,

01:09:37 --> 01:09:38

this means that

01:09:40 --> 01:09:40

the person

01:09:44 --> 01:09:46

the person is disbelieves.

01:09:53 --> 01:09:59

Okay, the issue of the one who doesn't pray. That's a big debate among scholars. So a person who says Salah is not an obligation

01:10:00 --> 01:10:40

is none of Muslim non Muslim? Okay, that's done except for small, very limited cases. Okay. But generally speaking, someone who denies the obligation of Salah is not considered to be Muslim. Now we're talking about someone who doesn't pray. Just because he doesn't feel like it all feels lazy, right? he's just he's not motivated to do it. That's where the debate of the scholars has been. Is he really truly a Kaffir? Or is the action of not making sulla is Cofer, but the person is not necessarily Catholic, some big issue of debate. I personally lean towards that. He's not necessarily Catholic. He's not necessarily a Catholic. But the scholar said this person is on the verge of

01:10:41 --> 01:11:02

because truly, like it's unimaginable, someone that truly loves Allah is connected to Allah, and they find it hard to pray and they know that Salah is obligatory it's really hard to experience this, but can for me, can you make someone who doesn't pray you make fun of him? I find this such a far fetched kind of place to be in. Yeah.

01:11:04 --> 01:11:04

Okay.

01:11:05 --> 01:11:07

Yeah. Okay, let's take one last question. Go ahead.

01:11:16 --> 01:11:18

closing their eyes, okay.

01:11:20 --> 01:11:26

Okay, basically saying some people find it easy to have a show if they close their eyes and Salah.

01:11:28 --> 01:11:32

Now the prophets prayer was described in detail, there's nothing about closing the eyes.

01:11:34 --> 01:11:48

So it seems the professor did not close his eyes and Salah It seems the case. And there are some remote indications how, because for example, you have the problem says in the Hadith, if you're in salah and you see a scorpion, kill it.

01:11:50 --> 01:12:24

Your insula, so basically cut off your Salah, leave it, kill that Scorpion and complete then complete your Salah. You can't see a scorpion unless your eyes are open and Salah, right? So that's a remote indication, that's remote indication. So we say ideally, you shouldn't, you shouldn't Close your eyes. But this course also also I have debated. Some of them said said it's not a big issue, but also the prophets. I send them when he prayed. He kept his eyesight when he was standing on the place of Institute the spot where he put his forehead.

01:12:25 --> 01:12:43

So that's also important. So some scholars say you should not close your eyes at all. You're not allowed to close your eyes. Some scholars said it's not a big issue. Some scholars said it's okay. Like amendment never. We said if you can only find horseshoe if you close your eyes do it.

01:12:44 --> 01:12:50

But some other scholars say no lecture Mm hmm. Bears says no, no, you can't close your eyes, you should not close your eyes and Salah.

01:12:51 --> 01:13:17

So and there are scholars in between. So what I would say at least in the five daily prayers, obligatory prayers, try to keep your eyes open. You're doing something that's much easier, as much as you want to close them. And so you feel a bit more for sure. That's easier but in the obligatory salon I would prefer not to I would prefer not to but do I go to the extent that I say it's haram? I don't take that stance personally.

01:13:25 --> 01:13:28

On one side on the left on the right, yeah.

01:13:31 --> 01:13:43

Okay, the professor was praying in his house, his room. So she had like us a curtain or something right, a piece of cloth that was covering like the the the wardrobe

01:13:45 --> 01:13:57

and it had some shapes in it. So the prophecies are what does he do? He He prayed as he was praying Salah, so he moved towards it and he ripped it. And then he completed his Salah, his Salah, he did not even close his eyes.

01:13:58 --> 01:13:59

So I would say

01:14:03 --> 01:14:21

yeah, because it was distracting him, right? Yeah, so I don't know you want to do but believe me if you are really focused on salaat, the more engaged you would actually distractions would be less intrusive. Okay. Play Allah. Allah Allah, Allah. Allah Allah, Muhammad wa sahbihi wa sallam
