			So now you're doing five Salah days is coming even closer so now you're doing your sunnah Come even
closer so now you're doing you're ahead you come even closer now you're reading Quran Come even
closer now you've improved your dress code Come even closer. Now you've eradicated haram relations
Come even closer. Now you've actually done this, this what's happening, the longer he's delaying the
better you as a believer is becoming, that's a gift of Allah. But if you're going further away or
you haven't learned a lesson, then you better take heed. That's why Allah says, You think someone
wronged you in the interim you seek forgiveness for your sins. In fact, Allah Almighty tells Musa

			alayhis, Salam and Harun when they pray against the Pharaoh, Allah subhanho wa Taala says, By the OG
but that Anwar to Kuma, Fustat, tema, we have already answered your DUA. It's a matter of time
before we destroy the Pharaoh they already knew through revelation, but Allah didn't stop there. He
says in the meantime, be steadfast. Imagine to the prophets Allah is saying in the meantime, be
steadfast. Allah says bear patients in so many places in the Quran, and a day will come when the
Almighty will bless you with the justice that you deserve. May Allah Almighty grant us goodness, may
Allah Almighty help us if Allah has promised you Jana for something he will give you that Jana, if
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:57
			Allah has promised you forgiveness, He will forgive you as soon as you seek that forgiveness. If
Allah has promised you a great reward for something he will give you the reward. If Allah has
promised you something amazing for a deed that you're doing when you do it correctly, he will give
you the deed whenever you've done a good deed you say a banner ticket Bellman, oh Allah accepted
from us. I did the deed but I'm not too sure as to the exact sincerity of the deed or the
concentration within the deed for example, your prayer, your charity, sometimes you give a charity a

to become haughty and proud for me to help others so that I can earn Janna here it is I got and I
gave as best as I could accept it from me and still grant me the humbleness and humility. That's why
there is a great reward for a person who respects the poor knowing my charity was not going to be
possible if there were no poor people on earth. You thought about that?

			A Masjid you come to it to fulfill Salah one of the pillars of Islam, a poor person, you got to go
to them to fulfill another pillar of Islam. How do you treat the masjid and how do you treat the
poor person? Did you know The treatment of the poor person is more important than the treatment of
the masjid although it is the house of Allah. Like the Hadith speaks about the value of the Kaaba
great Masha, Allah the greatest Why not but the value of another human being sacred, that blood is
sacred. It's on another level. May Allah Almighty grant us humility humbleness when Allah has
promised something it will definitely occur when Allah has promised that justice will be served for
