we still in the chapter Catarratto tropical higher which is the abundance of the pathways to goodness.

00:00:52 --> 00:00:54

Next hadith is

00:00:56 --> 00:01:45

from Abu Musa luxury again. I Dubbin will sell amateur Obon Oh Salema and the interpreter will calm SGD Fabella Danica rasool Allah He is Allah Allahu Allah He was selling them I thought I love them in my love honey. And according to the dunya and Tenterfield orrible masjid for call Luna hemiola surah Allah, but Allah another Alec for Karla Benny selima when he sent him when he sent him idea will come out era come took turbo Atha Rocco der took double Athol Kampala Muslim or fury wire in equally hook hot water in the Raja Raja Muslim or Allahu Al Bukhari. You know, Hamid reiwa Yeti ns are the Allahu Anhu urban also Lima because Salam Aveda tomorrow, Fatone Minal Ansaldi Allahu Anhu

00:01:45 --> 00:01:48

Martha room hotel. And so

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

one of the clans have an answer by no selima. They wanted to move

00:01:56 --> 00:02:40

their their house or their houses or their area where they lived, was far from the masjid so they decided to move closer to the masjid. When the Prophet SAW Selim heard about this, he verified so he asked them Are you do you intend to move closer to the masjid? They said, yes, the prophets Allah Salam says, Stay where you are, stay where you are, your steps will be written, your steps will be written another narration another wedding with a hadith with each step, there will be you will gain a higher rank in paradise. Again, a higher ranking paradise. The point in this hadith is the prophets awesome advice them they were living far from the Masjid. So when they came to the masjid,

00:02:40 --> 00:03:14

they had to walk further distance than if they moved closer to the masjid. So the Prophet SAW Salem give them an advice to stay where they are far from the masjid because that would mean or that means that they would make more steps to the masjid because it's more distance. So that's the advice of the profits or loss and again, so the point here is, the steps that you take to the masjid are a great source of reward or a great source of reward. Sometimes people say what about coming in by car?

00:03:16 --> 00:03:38

Is it similar reward? Well, there is definitely a reward. There is definitely reward. If you live closer to the masjid it's always better to come walking. If you live close to the masjid where you can actually walk so it's better to walk there is more reward. But when you come driving inshallah you definitely get reward even based on the distance as well. Based on the distance.

00:03:39 --> 00:03:46

Next Hadith al Hadith, Al Hadi will asuran and Emily Munger obey even though the Allahu Anhu called can illogical and

00:03:48 --> 00:04:24

the animal logic and Idaman and msg the men who are Canada to put your horse alert on fatigue Allahu overkill to the whole oesterreichische The Himalayan caribou from Voluma or if you're from LA for Karla so Ronnie and naman xiri Illa Jim Bill Masjid in New York Tibet Imam Sharia Elon Musk voila Joe either Raja to either Ali for Paul Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam pajama, Allahu La caja and you can call or theory writing in Electromatic sevens. Arambula Illuminati ASABE I'll help Rashidi. This hadith reported by Albanian capital the Allahu Anhu said there was a man

00:04:25 --> 00:04:29

and a woman a cap says I don't know anyone who lives further from the masjid than the smell.

00:04:32 --> 00:04:33

And

00:04:34 --> 00:04:36

he never missed a prayer in the masjid.

00:04:37 --> 00:04:45

So someone said to him, someone advised him if you buy a riding animal to make it easy for you.

00:04:48 --> 00:04:58

That you can ride it in dark instead of walking and in the heat of the sun as well. It makes it easier for you makes it quicker for you to come to the masjid. So the man says

00:05:00 --> 00:05:11

He didn't seem to like the idea. And he said, I don't even wish that my house is closer to the masjid. I'm happy that my mustard is farther from the Masjid. Or that my house is farther from the Masjid.

00:05:13 --> 00:05:37

He says, I want a law I want my steps to the masjid to be written for me and I want my steps back to my house to be written for me. The prophets of Solomon he heard about this, he said, Allah has given you all of this. Allah has given you all of this. And other narration says if you seek if you keep seeking the reward from Allah subhanaw taala Allah will give you that so if you do this for the sake of Allah, Allah will give you the reward of all of this

00:05:38 --> 00:06:09

next Hadith 31 as shown and every Mohammed Abdullah Muhammad Rasul the Allahu Anhu oh my god god Allah, Allah He sallallahu alayhi wa salam ala moana hustler. I know how many how to Lance, ma'am in Yama will be hostile and minha Raja I won't be here. What is the if I'm a rudia Hola. Hola. Hola who we are Jana. Oh, Makati and many. And you are to El Corte Lebanon, ha ha ha. This hadith is from Abdullah ibn amor Ignace

00:06:10 --> 00:06:15

will be Allahu Anioma. He said, Allah's Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says

00:06:18 --> 00:06:29

4040 simple acts of deeds, good deeds, power of good character, simple 40 deeds,

00:06:30 --> 00:07:00

the most difficult of them. And the most burdensome of them is. And this is something that Arabs used to do when they saw a person who was poor, sometimes I didn't have enough money to give that person to help them out. So I had some goats, I would give him one of my goats as a trust, he keeps it with him for a few times for a few days or for a few weeks or a few months. And he uses the milk that this goat gives to sustain himself to provide for himself and his family.

00:07:02 --> 00:07:21

Then he gives it back to me. So that was very common among the Arabs a way of helping each other. So the prophets are sent me he says 40 Simple deeds, the most difficult of them is that you give your goat or your sheep, you lend it to a friend or to someone who's in need, so they use it or they use the milk its milk for some time, then they give it back to you.

00:07:23 --> 00:07:39

So that's the most difficult so you can imagine the other ones are much more simple. The Prophet SAW Selim anyone who does any of these deeds, hoping for reward from Allah subhanaw taala. And believing that Allah will reward for that, then Allah will enter him into Paradise because of this.

00:07:41 --> 00:07:49

So the point in the hadith is any simple app that you do, in which there is benefit to people in which there is help to people and in which there is support

00:07:50 --> 00:07:57

to people. And that's a great act of worship, and if you do it seeking Allah's reward, Allah will allow you into Paradise because of this.

00:07:59 --> 00:08:19

Next Hadith, a third one is shown at the end Hachiman Dudley Allahu Anhu called symetra Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam or it could not be Shakti Tamra, or even had him although Allah said, I heard the Prophet sallallahu Sallam say, protect yourself from the hellfire, even if it fits with half dates.

00:08:20 --> 00:08:30

You know, the one date tomorrow, one of these half of it, if you can protect yourself with that, do it. And that means if you have one date,

00:08:31 --> 00:09:13

and you see someone in need, you split it and you give him half and you keep half for yourself. That's what it means. This could protect you from the hellfire, a simple deed like this could protect you from the hellfire. So it could be $1 that you give away for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala as simple as that can be a dime that you give for the sake of Allah subhanaw taala it could protect you from the hellfire. Again, this reminds us of the Hadith that we mentioned previously, which is that they run nominal macro fish they don't ever be little. Don't ever undermine the power and the potential of any simple good deed and a simple good deed it could be the it could be the

00:09:13 --> 00:09:30

thing that will save you from the hellfire. It could be the reason for you to enter paradise and you don't know. Because sometimes there are people that will they will there will come a point in the day on the day of judgment where these people their good deeds will be will equal their bad deeds.

00:09:32 --> 00:09:38

And these are rough. These people will stand in the middle between Paradise and the Hellfire for a while

00:09:40 --> 00:09:44

because they're good records matched their bad records.

00:09:47 --> 00:09:59

But there are people who will make it to paradise who are pretty much similar in a similar situation. But these people their good deeds were were just a little bit more by a fraction. Maybe it's one good deed maybe it's a smile

00:10:00 --> 00:10:18

I managed to get the good deeds to be greater than the bad deeds. So these people were entered into paradise instead of being stuck in the middle, and another person because of an evil deed, a bad deed, it made their evil deeds outweigh their good deeds. So they had to go to the hellfire. Sometimes, it could, you know,

00:10:20 --> 00:10:32

it couldn't be dependent or could like you're entering paradise can stand on one thing, one simple thing as simple as half a date, as simple as a smile, as simple as a good word and so on and so forth.

00:10:33 --> 00:10:35

This hadith is collected by Al Bukhari and Muslim

00:10:37 --> 00:11:04

in another narration as well in the wording of this hadith, Allah's Messenger sort of salaam says, Mammon coming ahead in India say we can live a horrible way Sabina who Robina who told you man, for young little Amen I mean, who fell in love up at the window? I mean, half Allah Allah Allah mapa de moreon Robaina day if Allah Allah Allah knowledge, I would say, factor coonara Well, it will be shipped a camera, thermal limited FBI, Kelly my temper Yeva Allah's Messenger so themselves,

00:11:05 --> 00:11:09

each one of you, each one of you, will be

00:11:11 --> 00:11:21

will speak to Allah directly. Allah will speak to you directly. Allah will speak to you directly without a translator without a mediator in the middle.

00:11:23 --> 00:11:42

So you will look to your right you will only see your deeds. You will look to the left you will only see your deeds that's the hisab that's when Allah holds you to account. So you will stand before Allah and you will speak with him directly. He will speak with you directly. So you look at the right, you'll see your deeds, you look at the left you will see only your deeds

00:11:43 --> 00:11:46

and you will see what's ahead of you and it's only the hellfire.

00:11:48 --> 00:12:04

So only the alpha so the Prophet SAW Selim says So save yourself from the Hellfire even if it be by half a date. And for those who do not find something to give even if it's half a date, then with a good word, a nice word Kadima you

00:12:05 --> 00:12:24

next Hadith I'd build a stone and Anna slowly Allahu Anhu called Karla Rasulullah sallallahu and he was selling them in Allah Allah Allah and Elizabeth D and yeah, cool letter for your mother who Allah you are we are Shaba a shell better for your mother who Allah wa Muslim will occur to me that Hamza he'll avoid what I will ask

00:12:25 --> 00:12:39

for from anisopliae Allahu Allah's Messenger SallAllahu Sallam says, that Allah, Allah will be pleased with the servant will be pleased with a Muslim. If they eat a meal, and they thank Allah for it. That's what Allah wants from you.

00:12:41 --> 00:12:42

That Allah would be happy with you.

00:12:43 --> 00:12:45

So it's not much that Allah is asking for

00:12:47 --> 00:13:18

from us. So Allah subhanaw taala says that Allah is pleased with the servant, that he eats his meal, and he thanks for it. Or that he drinks something and he thanks for it. That's what Allah wants from you. That's it as simple as that. So Allah would be pleased with that. Because Allah wants thankfulness wants to see thankfulness from us. So you can see again, how Islam is all about our daily routines can only to all be turned into acts of worship.

00:13:19 --> 00:13:42

As long as you're doing things from a good heart, you're doing the right things, and you're behaving ethically, almost almost everything you do, could be written for you as a good deed. Islam is so simple, so easy. And not only that is so natural. It is so natural. You don't have to manufacture things. You don't have to fake things.

00:13:43 --> 00:13:52

It's simple. Whatever you do as a human being could be an act that allows you into paradise, as simple as that and Allah counts it for you as a good deed.

00:13:54 --> 00:13:55

Next Hadith Alhamdulillah Sharon

00:13:57 --> 00:14:01

and Abby most notably Allahu Anhu and in the use of Allah and he was setting them up God.

00:14:02 --> 00:14:09

Allah Cooley Muslim and sadaqa Allah, Allah ATIA in La mujer, Kalia Malou ba the Etherion phone if so where?

00:14:10 --> 00:14:38

Allah Allah ater and let me establish a father you know that hydrothermal hoof, Allah Allah, Allah Atia and let me stop there are a lot more Wilma roofie I will hire either in the myth, volume sequence Sharifah in a house or the whatever con la this hadith is collected by Bukhari Muslim, one of the previous Hadith it's similar to that. What he says Allah's Messenger Salam says, upon every Muslim there is sadaqa you have to give charity, there's something you have to give something good you have to do

00:14:39 --> 00:14:42

in order to, you know,

00:14:43 --> 00:14:45

in return or in exchange of what Allah has given you.

00:14:46 --> 00:14:59

So someone asked him What if the person doesn't find any wealth, any money to give out in charity to give them sadaqa the prophesies on them says, Let them go and find a job or let him do any kind of work.

00:15:00 --> 00:15:05

and get some money, get some money, where he benefits himself and he gives sadaqa from that as well.

00:15:07 --> 00:15:19

So the person asked What if he's unable to what if he's unable to work? The Prophet SAW Selim says you find someone who needs help, physical help or any kind of help, and you give them a hand.

00:15:21 --> 00:15:32

So the person asked What if he is unable even to do this, the Prophet SAW Selim says, your model will model fear will hire, he advises people or commands people to do good, you find someone give him advice.

00:15:33 --> 00:15:34

That's sadaqa.

00:15:35 --> 00:16:09

So the person has said, what if he doesn't do this, the province also says, let him hold back anything harmful from him, this will be considered to be something this will be considered. So don't harm people. Something is passive as not doing anything. If you do it with the intention that I don't want to harm people, whether physically, emotionally or even verbally, I don't want to do this on a hold back my hand from people, this is will be written for you as sadaqa will be written for you. So that's the end of this chapter. But I would just want to make some comments on this chapter.

00:16:11 --> 00:16:37

Oftentimes, we make Islam complicated, we make it difficult. There are you will find groups that will say you will not be a Muslim, you will not enter paradise or you guys are sinning, unless you join us in what we do. And so would you join us in our party in our group in our denomination and you do what we do otherwise? You're not doing good Islam.

00:16:39 --> 00:16:45

If anyone says this to you automatically register that as fishy and dodgy.

00:16:46 --> 00:17:14

Fishy and dodgy in Islam. You don't have to belong to a group, you're not supposed to belong to any group. You're not supposed to subscribe to any group or any name, apart from Muslims upon the Sunnah of the Prophet SAW center, nothing else. We don't need to be part of a group. You don't need to be part of a party. You don't need to join forces, with certain groups with certain agenda, certain titles, certain names, certain subscriptions and so on and so forth. None of this, none of this in Islam.

00:17:15 --> 00:17:20

Your covenant is with Allah subhanaw taala is with Allah subhana wa Bucha Anna

00:17:22 --> 00:17:35

you can see that as long as you do the obligations upon you pray the five daily prayers you first Ramadan, he gives a care if you have to give him a cup and you perform hajj when you do and you believe that Allah is the only one who has the right to be worshipped.

00:17:37 --> 00:17:38

That's what you have to do as a Muslim.

00:17:39 --> 00:17:47

That's what you have to do as a Muslim. A person came a Bedouin came and asked the Prophet SAW Solomon, he said, All Messenger of Allah, he says what is upon me?

00:17:49 --> 00:18:27

He says, that you bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that I am the messenger of Allah. He said, I do this already. You said what else? It is you five five daily prayers you pay them on time. He says, I'll do this, what else? He says you first Ramadan. He says I will first Ramadan what else? He says you pays occur. If you have to pay zakat, if your money reaches the nisab He says I'll do this. He says what else he says you make Hajj to the House of Allah subhanaw taala if you're able to do this, anything else? He says that's the obligation is upon you. That's what the problem says. That's all you have to do. He says well Hola Hola, azido, Allah,

00:18:27 --> 00:18:40

Allah, Allah, He says, By Allah, I will never do anything more than this. But once or the sharp, rough nature. So he said to the Prophet, and salam, I'll do this, and that will not do anything. On top of this, I'll do nothing extra.

00:18:42 --> 00:18:52

When the man left, the Prophet SAW Salem, upon the man leaving he said to the Companions, a flat in Sadhak. This man will be successful if he's truthful to his word,

00:18:54 --> 00:18:55

if he's truthful to His Word.

00:18:57 --> 00:19:07

So that's what we have to do as muslims. But here we see in this hadith, every simple thing, every daily thing that you do, you can be rewarded for it.

00:19:08 --> 00:19:44

And we mentioned as in the Hadith, you give someone advice, that's sadaqa you give someone charity that's sadaqa you give someone a smile, that's sadaqa I'll kill him a total Eva a nice word, you give it to someone that's sadaqa. That's charity. That's an act of worship. And we said someone approaches their wife intimately. The Prophet of Islam says it will be written for them as sadaqa and the companions said O Messenger of Allah, someone like answers and fulfills their desire and they get reward for that the prophecy is on and said yes, because if they do it in Haram, it will be considered sin. They do it in Halal it is considered to be a good deed. So almost anything you do in

00:19:44 --> 00:19:47

Islam as long as it's ethical and good, inherently good.

00:19:48 --> 00:19:59

It will be written for you it's a good deed. And that's how Islam is so vast Islam is so natural. Some some people make Islam sound as as a robotic kind of thing that you have to give

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

Pure humanity and start to live an awkward way of life.

00:20:04 --> 00:20:36

That's not Waston tells us to do. Islam says you need to live as a human being. And what completes you as a human being is that you worship Allah subhanaw taala. And you do everything in Love of Allah subhanho wa taala. So don't complicate Islam, make it simple. Make it simple. If you want to exert yourself more in worship, you want to do kriya Malay, you want to seek knowledge, you want to do extra things for you know, you want to volunteer and so fine, that's your personal choice. But don't look down upon others who don't do that.

00:20:37 --> 00:20:55

Don't look down upon others, don't see yourself better than them. Don't say them, you're you're depriving yourself so from such a great reward. You have chosen something for yourself extra to do, go ahead and do it, by all means, enjoy it, and may Allah reward you for it. But don't start judging other people because they don't do what you do.

00:20:56 --> 00:21:00

Or because they don't do as much as you do. You don't know what's between them and Allah.

00:21:01 --> 00:21:20

You don't know what's between them and Allah, because some people are hidden. Some great worshipers of Allah are hidden. Some people see forgiveness from Allah so many times and remember Allah all day and no one knows about them. They look like everyone else. And you might look at them and they say you say might say are more religious than they are.

00:21:21 --> 00:21:34

But there are people who have a lot of worship that we don't know about. Some people have a pure heart. They don't know they don't do much acts of worship, they just have a pure heart. They have no hate to no one.

00:21:35 --> 00:21:45

And they love Allah subhanaw taala and they have no intention to hold no grudge against anyone. They have no intention to harm anyone. These people might be in the highest ranks in paradise,

00:21:46 --> 00:22:11

in the highest ranks in paradise, because that's what Allah wants a pure heart. That's what Islam is. That's what Islam truly is when we turn Islam completely into mere rituals, mere rituals, and we lose our humanity trying to behave in certain ways that are not necessarily from Islam, but just they are the work of some people's minds and imagination.

00:22:13 --> 00:22:26

Islam is so simple, so straightforward. Islam is about living this life fully is about living this life. ethically. It's about doing the right things and the good things in this life. That's what it is. I'm not I'm not as he's literally Allah Who

00:22:27 --> 00:22:31

as he wouldn't have some of the companions of the Prophet sorcerer, he says

00:22:33 --> 00:22:48

Can a seller for LA Yara wanna lay by the Traffic Authority Salah it what a cm what la vida in America and y'all owner and a bad fee horsnell Hello. Okay, Phil, other Elena's

00:22:49 --> 00:23:17

Ahmad bin Abdulaziz Rahim Allah Allah, the great Khalifa. He said, the self the companions of the Prophet sallahu wa salam, they used to see worship, not in so much prayers, and not in so much fast. But they use us to see worship is in good character. And in holding back harm from people being harmless to others. That's how they saw worship. That's how they understood worship.

00:23:20 --> 00:23:21

One of the tabs in says

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

Massa cockman, Subak, DK 40 cm and ASALA were lacking server can be hosted locally, they said the people who exceeded you the people who are supposed to the people who did better than you inside of Allah, they didn't do this because of more Salah and mostly younger more acts of worship, they did this because they had better character.

00:23:44 --> 00:23:54

So this thing was very common was very clear among the early generations. But somehow it became, you know, side tracked and was pushed to the side. Unfortunately,

00:23:55 --> 00:24:08

women move on to a new chapter Bible if decide if a PA Bible Alif decidi Fatah. And this chapter is about being moderate in worship,

00:24:09 --> 00:24:12

being moderate in worship again.

00:24:13 --> 00:24:20

It seems that it seems Imam and Nova Rahim Allah when he wrote these two chapters, he was aware of some things that are also taking place today.

00:24:22 --> 00:24:37

People think worship is about pushing yourself too much being excessive. Now we will see from the Hadith of the Prophet sallallahu sallam. So it's been Birbal if decide if a bar means being moderate episod B is economy

00:24:38 --> 00:24:50

being economy. So that means that you when you do decide in your spendings that means you're very careful with your spending so you don't spend too much.

00:24:51 --> 00:24:58

And he's using here the same word actually Assad in worship, so you don't go into excess when your worship

00:25:00 --> 00:25:43

That sounds counterintuitive Right? Or we should do more and more and more and more and more. But here the hadith is gonna show Allah create a beautiful context Allah subhanaw taala says kala lota Hannah, ba her mat and Zelina Malika Khurana the Tesco makalah. To Allah you read Allahu be como nuestra wala you worried OB como Rasul Allah smart Allah says da mountains in Alico Khurana, Natasha, we have not sent down upon you the Quran to make it hard for you to make it difficult for you. The Quran was not sent to put difficulty on you know, by the way, Baja is not the name of the prophets Arsalan. Some people think Baja is the name No. Baja is like Alif Lam mean two letters BA

00:25:43 --> 00:25:44

and ha

00:25:46 --> 00:26:33

It's not the name of the Prophet SAW Selim. It's fragmented letters like Alif Lam meme, like Han mean, like Yeah, seeing ya seen is not the name of the prophets on a seldom it's two separate letters. Okay, two separate letters, Hammy. Calf Hi Yah ha insipid and if lamb mean Alif Lam Meem sod Alif Lam Meem Ra, bah ha. These are separate letters. These are not names of the Prophet sallallahu sallam. So next verse palata. Allah you read Allah will be common useful Allah you read to be common. So Allah wants ease for you. He doesn't want hardship. Allah doesn't want to place you under hardship. First Hadith and actually Allahu Allah and and maybe your sallallahu alayhi wa

00:26:33 --> 00:27:19

sallam, Allah Allah you were in the Hamra Parliament had Allah 30 Falana to the Quran in Salah to call me or you can be matched at home so Allah Allah, Allah Allah who had that Emmylou what can I have Bodine Lee my dad? Well, my mother was a Hebrew who had a more difficult early math can imagine a hidden wizard. Well, I'm not gonna lie I'm a lulu or EULA. Saba Huang como una de como, como la mala tell Malhotra Malou feta truco for him the Rila command Tahoma totally own it the one I really do matter what whoo hoo hoo Alikum. Okay, I shot all the Allahu ANA reports that Allah's messengers salaam entered her house one day, and she had a woman a visitor

00:27:21 --> 00:27:49

was one woman was visiting her. So the prophets of salaam asked Aisha Who is this woman. She said, she is such an such Falana her name. And she praise and praise and praise. She started mentioning how much this woman praise she prays so much, and Aisha was happy with this, that she prays a lot of records during the day during the night. The prophets, Allah Salam said, My man is a word in Arabic an expression in Arabic, that means that's not right.

00:27:51 --> 00:27:54

That's the Prophet, son, son. And this hadith is reported by Bukhari Muslim.

00:27:56 --> 00:27:56

said, Man,

00:27:57 --> 00:27:58

that's wrong.

00:27:59 --> 00:28:01

No, don't do this. That's what it means.

00:28:02 --> 00:28:14

He says La Combi motto to your own. Do what you are able to do what you are comfortable with doing from the worship. Do what you can do, don't push yourself so much.

00:28:15 --> 00:28:32

From Allah hilarya Malala, who had Tatom Allah, Allah will never get bored of your worship unless you get bored. That means you should do the worship until you get to a point where you stop when you don't feel it anymore. Sometimes you don't feel it, and you keep doing it, but you're not feeling it.

00:28:33 --> 00:28:42

That means you have reached your limit. Stop by that limits. This is why the President saying Allah will not get bored from your worship unless until you guys get bored.

00:28:46 --> 00:28:52

Mm hmm. No, he explains this. And he says, that I am Allah Allah that Allah subhanaw taala

00:28:53 --> 00:28:59

will keep giving you reward for your deeds. Whatever you do, Allah will keep giving you reward.

00:29:02 --> 00:29:04

And Allah will only

00:29:07 --> 00:29:22

be bored of your worship and they will not like receive your, your worship gracefully. When you do it, without feeling it without heart. And that's when you get bored. That's when you push yourself beyond your limit when you don't feel it anymore.

00:29:23 --> 00:29:49

So remember, no, he says, so you have to what you have to do is do something you are able to sustain do little that you are able to sustain they are able to do all the time. And Allah will give you a reward for that and don't push don't overburden yourself. Don't push yourself beyond the limits because you're unable to sustain. There will be other Hadith that will come and will Charla create a more complete context and explain this. Then.

00:29:50 --> 00:29:59

At the end of this hadith there's a statement here. What can have moodini Hema Dawa Messiah Hebrew it seems this is a statement from shall be allowed and the prophets are sending

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

them the best worship the best Dean that he loves, is what you could sustain and do continuously.

00:30:07 --> 00:30:29

Because when you push yourself you can't sustain worship, you can't sustain worship so much. Do what you can sustain to raka you can keep up with that on a daily basis do that six o'clock if you're gonna do it on an off and you're gonna get tired, you're gonna get bored. Then you will do it one day two days you leave it and so on and so forth. No, stick to the rock to rock ash and do it on a daily basis. Allah loves this more.

00:30:30 --> 00:30:48

Following Hadith one Ana symbol the Allahu Anhu Jaya atleta too often AWT as well in Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is alone on a bad day Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa sallam for them. They are orca and no hometech are Lua Wirkkala were called to beat us Allah Allahu alayhi wa salam, ala Houma to put them in them be one at

00:30:49 --> 00:31:30

home and also later a burden or call one Asuma dalawa off or call it off. Artisanal Nisa fella It is evident Fajr Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa salam ala antimalaria in Appleton cada waka ama Allah He Nila Akshaya, Camilla, Camilla who well I can only assume more often I will also leave it as a Word UniSA from ungodly baton Suniti fillet salmon Nemo, typically collected by Al Bukhari and Muslim. Three people came to the house of the Prophet SAW Selim, they asked about his worship, they wanted to know his daily routine. What does the prophets of salaam do on a daily basis? How much does he worship? How much does he pray? How often does he fast? What does he do and so on and so

00:31:30 --> 00:31:55

forth. So when they were told about the daily routine of the Prophet SAW Selim, can Nahum Takalua they saw that it's little It's not much. There's not much the Prophet Salam seems to be doing. So they said. So that's the rationale. The Prophet SAW, Selim has got his sins forgiven, right. But we need our sins to be forgiven. So we shouldn't compare ourselves to the prophets of salaam because his sins are forgiven. I wasn't not we should do more. That was the rationale.

00:31:56 --> 00:32:21

So one of them said, I pray all night and I never go to sleep. Every night I pray all night and don't go to sleep. The second person said ice I fast every day. Every day consecutively. I keep fasting faster and faster every day, day in and day out. The third person said, I don't marry women. I don't. I don't do I don't get into intimate relationships. That's it. I don't marry.

00:32:22 --> 00:32:24

I'm going to live like this as a hermit.

00:32:25 --> 00:32:26

When the Prophet sallallaahu Salam

00:32:27 --> 00:32:49

was told about this, he approached them he came to them and he said you said such and such they said yes. The Prophet salallahu Salam says, I am the one who feels Allah the most among all of you. And I am the one who has Taqwa to Allah. Most among all of you. I fast some days and I break my fast other days.

00:32:50 --> 00:32:54

I pray sometimes at night and that some nights I don't pray all night.

00:32:56 --> 00:32:57

And I marry.

00:32:59 --> 00:33:04

He says Whoever seeks or chooses other than my sunnah then he's not from me, and I'm not from him.

00:33:06 --> 00:33:48

What were these people doing worship? The Prophet SAW Salem, threatened them, criticize them, and he said, That's not my son. Why these people were praying all night, fasting all days, not marrying I want to be more righteous. That's not the way of the Prophet SAW Selim. Again. Next Hadith. What anybody mess with the Allahu Nabi sallallahu alayhi wa salam, ala Hala Kalamata Napoli rune Allah hath Allah thunder wa Muslim and will turn up their own alma mater and my own alma mater should they do on a theory remote hdwd I'm delighted Mr. Donnelly Allahu I know this corrected by Muslim. Allah's Messenger sallallahu alayhi wa sallam says hello Cal Matana their own. Those who go to

00:33:48 --> 00:34:15

extremes. Those who go to extremes will be destroyed will be destroyed helical motor not their own may they be destroyed or made against them may they be destroyed. Those who go to extremes. Remember no expense, Montana, Montana, Montana their own, they are the ones who do more than they are required to do or they are very edgy when it comes to issues of religion.

00:34:17 --> 00:34:20

An example of maternal an example of maternal

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

is

00:34:24 --> 00:34:49

by no destroyed when Allah when Musa alayhis salam, he said in Allahu Yamato commanded bajo Baqarah Allah commands you to slaughter a cow. Why? Because the person was murdered. And the last one Tala said if you slaughter a cow, and you take one piece of it, and you hit the dead person with that piece, Allah will make that dead person speak until the person who murdered him

00:34:52 --> 00:34:59

so they said are you ridiculing as you making fun of us? That's what they said. Allah made it simple command. slaughter a cow

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

and do what I told you to do and you will get to know the murderer.

00:35:04 --> 00:35:05

They said, Oh, you're making fun of us.

00:35:07 --> 00:35:47

So that that was their first response. Second response. Most of them said, No, I'm not making fun of you. They said, Okay, so ask you, Lord, to tell us give us more description. What is this cow like? Allah says, a cow, a cow. This is why the prophets of salaam said if they slaughtered any cow or would have done the job, but they said, Oh which cow describe it to us? So Allah Subhana Allah made a description that narrowed down their choices now they have less choices among cows. They weren't even satisfied with this. So they said, tell the Lord to tell us or describe its color. What color is the cow? So Allah Subhana Allah made it even more difficult and he narrowed down the choices and

00:35:47 --> 00:35:52

he said so far it's it's yellow Falco and Lola very strong color yellow color.

00:35:53 --> 00:36:08

Then they were not satisfied. Get you loads describe it more even more in more detail more specific, if they slaughtered any cow would have done but Allah made it difficult for them because they made it difficult. They asked questions that were not supposed to ask. Allah said slaughter a cow. That's it.

00:36:09 --> 00:36:18

That's it. So then Allah Samantha made another description that made it extremely difficult, they had to buy a very expensive cow is a very rare cow.

00:36:20 --> 00:36:25

And then it did the job. So that's an example of going to extremes on maternal play on

00:36:26 --> 00:36:28

among Muslims. Allah subhanaw taala says

00:36:31 --> 00:36:33

Mikado make

00:36:34 --> 00:36:40

you make although you're gonna wash your hands, three times don't I'm gonna get make it five times. Why to be sure. To be sure.

00:36:43 --> 00:37:07

For example, Allah subhanaw taala says, if you are sick, if you are ill, or if you are traveling, you're exempt from fasting. You can make it up later on. You say no, I want to fast. I'm more righteous. I want to fast. But Allah said, you can break your fast. No, no, I want to fast. And if you see someone who's sick, and you and you see them eating, you say a certain madonn Yes, but I am sick.

00:37:08 --> 00:37:11

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, this person doesn't have enough Taqwa.

00:37:12 --> 00:37:17

You should fast, that shows more Iman. That's what tonnato is. That's what extremism is

00:37:18 --> 00:37:26

something similar as well. Like, you see someone is doing something wrong in the street, you don't have power over them.

00:37:27 --> 00:37:52

You don't have power over them. You try to force your opinion upon them. Or even if it's true, like they're doing a sin, but you have to you try to force it on them. They're not under your authority. All you can do is if you want give them advice, give them advice. Accept the accepted find. They don't accept it. That's it, but you stop them by force. You can't do this. The the you know, last year there was

00:37:53 --> 00:38:17

this phenomenon appeared by some young Muslims, zealots, young Muslims, who were affected by some extremism, and why some dodgy methodologies in the UK in certain areas, they were making religious police. If they see a couple, you know, walking together and they holding each other's hands, Muslims or non Muslim, they go to them and they say listen in Islam, this is haram.

00:38:19 --> 00:38:21

Let go of her hand.

00:38:23 --> 00:38:42

And they used to harass people on the streets. And this caused a lot of turmoil against Muslims, against Muslims. Who said you can do this last time after that's extremism. That's extremism. So you have to be careful. What Allah made Haram is haram, Allah made Khaled is halal. What Allah made sunnah is sunnah.

00:38:43 --> 00:38:53

But you want to make the Sunnah and obligation. You want to cancel the exemptions and say, Oh, that shows your your water your water down your religion.

00:38:54 --> 00:39:05

Or if you see someone has a mistake, you say, Oh, he's off religion, or he's got mistakes. And he's this and he's that you start slandering people. That's all extremism. That's all extremism.

00:39:06 --> 00:39:27

So the Prophet Salim says halachot, Matata on May the ones who go to extremes and they take things in an edgy fashion and Islam, may they be destroyed, or the meaning of a hadith could be, they are destroyed, and they are indeed destroyed. And we have a lot of extremism. You see it done in the name of Islam. And the problem is, it's now being used

00:39:28 --> 00:39:37

by people who don't want good for Islam. They're using Muslim youth, Muslim youth who have passion. They're using them

00:39:38 --> 00:39:46

through these movements through these groups, okay, extreme groups in order to destroy the image of Islam.

00:39:48 --> 00:39:59

So there are people pulling the strings behind the scenes, and they're using all of these they use the Muslim spirit dispassion because they know when someone is young and they are Zealots, and they want to do something

00:40:00 --> 00:40:16

for Islam and they don't have the knowledge, it's easy to get them to do extremes. It's easy for someone to sacrifice their life thinking when they kill innocent people, or that's Jihad was jihad in this? What is jihad in this? In Islam you're not even allowed to kill a bird if you're not going to eat it

00:40:18 --> 00:40:21

if you're not going to consume it, you're not allowed It's haram for you to kill a bird

00:40:23 --> 00:40:25

and then killing innocent people is part of Islam

00:40:27 --> 00:40:29

that's what it's that's what Extremism takes people

00:40:32 --> 00:40:43

and we have a lot of people as well some people want you to dress up like they dress. Some people want you to dress up like your dress. I know some people go to the brothers in the midst of they say, Brother, your Salah, wearing the pants is haram.

00:40:44 --> 00:40:50

Not you want to wear this. This is an Arab dress. This is not an Islamic dress. By the way. This is an Arab thing.

00:40:52 --> 00:40:57

You should well as well as a Pakistani Indian thing. There is a an African dress as well.

00:40:58 --> 00:41:04

This is an Arab thing. By the way. A cool fee as well is an Arab African

00:41:05 --> 00:41:43

Desi culture. It's not everywhere. If someone prays without a cap. There's nothing wrong with that. The President prayed with a cap because the cap was the norm of the Arabs is how the Arab dress the problem was like the Arabs. So someone prays without a cap without a Koofi. There's nothing wrong with it. Some people say no, no, you have to wear a cap. No, that's an Arab thing. That's a cultural thing. There is nothing called Islamic dress by the way, there's no Islamic dress. There are certain parameters for what is a decent clothing and it's not for men. I'm talking about men, even women there's not a specific dress there are conditions. If these conditions conditions are met, then

00:41:43 --> 00:42:11

there is no specific dress I can tell you this is Islamic. This is Arab. This is an Arab Arab way of dressing. There's another way of dressing if your pants are not so tight, like these tights are like yoga pants, if they are tight and have some space and they do not show the skin the color of your skin you can pray with them. There's nothing wrong with that. So let's not go to extremes all these extremes are problematic. And the Prophet saw them warned against them.

00:42:13 --> 00:42:15

Is it time you're hungry

00:42:18 --> 00:42:43

am I going to an extreme no problem is Salah. Okay, does that go hand will carry on. I find this chapter to be very interesting and relevant. Our times BarakAllahu li como SallAllahu wasallam going to be in a moment while you also have us enjoy your Iftar by the way, one of our brothers who regularly prays here a brother Mohamed, the brother from Ethiopia, a senior one of our senior brothers. I think he had a surgery today. So make dua for him. midwife and welcome

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