Mufti Menk – Did you expect all of this… Birth and Death

			My brothers and sisters, it's an amazing topic who is Allah? Why is he worthy of worship, He's
worthy of worship because he made me and I'm going to go back to him when I go back to him, Subhana
Allah,
		

			it's just going to be one of those amazing days, you know, when you before you were born, you were
in the womb of your mother. And I always love giving this example, as you come onto the earth, you
never, ever remember what it was like there in the womb of your mother. But if you knew how tight it
became, and how difficult and small it became in the womb, and then suddenly you crossed a membrane,
and you were in a place you never believed existed, it was so different and there was just a
membrane between you and what we know today is life. Well, in a similar way, you're going to cross
through Sakura to the pangs of death, and you cross through a small membrane again, where your soul
		

			departs the body, and you will then float into something known as a buzzer. It is a it is a certain
place that Allah is kept as a transition between this life and the Day of Judgment. So panela and we
will float straight through that and go in such an amazing, unique way.
		

			I can't wait for that day. So Panama, try your best seek forgiveness of Allah and have hope in the
mercy of Allah, better your ways and habits try and understand revelation. When Allah says do
something or don't do something, ask yourself, why is this? Not because I'm defying our largest if I
understand this, it's, it's much better. There is always an explanation. But even if you don't
understand it, remember, Allah knows better than you. You know, when your mom tells you don't play
with the knife, but you're enjoying it, it's silver, it looks nice. You're gonna cut yourself and
then when you cut yourself, your mom says Didn't I tell you what, Allah's example is higher. Allah
		

			says, Don't do this. And don't do that. When unless prohibited. adultery and fornication is
prohibited. Sexual Misconduct is prohibited immorality and evil bad words is prohibited worshiping
anyone or anything besides him. He's prohibited insulting others He wants you to be just and fair.
He wants you to be disciplined, completely disciplined. He wants you to pray to get up at a certain
time to sleep at a certain time. May Allah forgive us for our shortcomings, and sincerely. Sometimes
we actually make mistakes and we do wrong, intentionally or unintentionally but not out of defiance
of Allah.
