Mufti Menk – Do You Thank Allah Enough

			I was in Indonesia recently.
		

			And I made mention of a point
		

			of a magician, a lady from Russia.
		

			In an interview online that is there, she was asked
		

			when you're doing your magic and when you're trying to do affect people with all types of magic, are
there any people that you find it difficult to actually affect? She says yes, the Muslims,
		

			the practicing Muslims who pray five times a day, these are the words of a non Muslim.
		

			Go and check it out. It's today
		

			why she explains that when they pray,
		

			there is a strength
		

			and there is like a dome around them you just can't get through. Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, Allah
He these are non Muslims telling you and you, you you think that this Quran we have been blessed
with is something minor.
		

			It is the most amazing gift that you have. But you don't do Kadar of it. You don't appreciate it.
Sometimes you have a spouse or husband or a wife, the best that you could ever have had. But because
you don't appreciate them, you lose them. It happens when you've lost them. You say oh, you know
what? I lost? Too late, too late.
		

			Sometimes you have a gift of Allah a job. You don't appreciate that Allah has blessed you. And you
start dilly dallying and you don't take it seriously and you lose your job.
		

			Allah says I gave you You were the one who turned away from me. You were the one who didn't want who
did not appreciate how many times do you say like Alhamdulillah cashew Korea? Awaji. Do Jalla Jalla
How many times do you say to You is all Praise? Oh Allah to you is all thanks. Oh Allah, how do you
expect to heal from your sicknesses, your diseases, your weaknesses, your difficulties, your
hardships, and every one of us has all of those. I have difficulties and you do. The level of the
difficulty is different, but I have hardship. You have hardship. The level of your hardship and mine
is different and others might be more others are less but we have it because Allah says well hon one
		

			MCO we will test all of you. You're going to go through challenges.
		

			You will have sickness, the level of your sickness difference, some will die in their sickness.
		

			Some of the sicknesses we are told by Nabi SallAllahu Sallam if you have them, you die with the rank
of a martyr. Imagine what type of sickness that is. Die with the rank of a martyr. Why? Because you
are patient, you thanked Allah Oh Allah. You kept me for 60 years with such good health now that I'm
unwell. The first thing I want to do is to thank you for those 60 years.
		

			Don't complain? A Eubalaena his Salam was ashamed to complain to Allah because he tells his wife,
Allah kept me healthy for so many years. I'm unhealthy for a short time. How can I make dua to him
to tell him that Oh Allah, this and that Subhan Allah, look at the level of love of Allah. He
doesn't even want to complain, Oh Allah, you've kept me in this condition. I'm still happy. We are
not prophets of Allah. We are not a Yuba. Alayhis Salam so don't go back home and say today we were
told don't make dua.
		

			For us, you have a massive reward and calling out to Allah before you have the problem.
