00:00:00 --> 00:00:03
			Good news to those who are chosen by
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			Allah to change their lives before they pass
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:06
			away.
		
00:00:06 --> 00:00:07
			And I've known of quite a few people
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:10
			who led a life very very distance from
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:10
			Allah.
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			That's why I personally don't charge a soul
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:14
			because I don't know your ending.
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:17
			You probably would end much better than my
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:17
			ending.
		
00:00:17 --> 00:00:20
			But I can tell you something, I know
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			of people who were distance from Allah and
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:27
			suddenly something happened in their lives and they
		
00:00:27 --> 00:00:30
			became closer to Allah and closer to Allah
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:31
			and closer to Allah.
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			And they passed on, young age.
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:38
			It is definitely Allah who loved them for
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:42
			some reason to give them the opportunity to
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			turn to Him in a way that when
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:47
			He took their soul away, they were upon
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:51
			the best relation they ever had with Allah.
		
00:00:51 --> 00:00:52
			What a good death.
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			May Allah grant us a goodness.
		
00:00:56 --> 00:01:00
			اللهم اجعل خير ايامنا اواخرها وخير اعمالنا خواتمها
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:03
			The Prophet ﷺ used to say, O Allah,
		
00:01:03 --> 00:01:05
			let the best of our days be the
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:06
			last of our days.
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:08
			And let the best of our deeds be
		
00:01:08 --> 00:01:09
			the last of our deeds.
		
00:01:09 --> 00:01:12
			That's why we tell people consistency is key.
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:15
			You want success in life, be consistent.
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			Day in, day out.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:19
			You do something, you make sure you are
		
00:01:19 --> 00:01:20
			disciplined.
		
00:01:20 --> 00:01:22
			Our bodies are created in a way that
		
00:01:22 --> 00:01:25
			when you are consistent, the body itself will
		
00:01:25 --> 00:01:27
			tell you, you need this, you need this.
		
00:01:27 --> 00:01:29
			So much so that if it's consistency on
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:32
			a bad thing, the body will call for
		
00:01:32 --> 00:01:34
			a drug or call for something bad, or
		
00:01:34 --> 00:01:37
			call you towards * or something because you
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:39
			got your body used to something that was
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:42
			negative, it will keep on calling you towards
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:42
			it.
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			When you get your body used to getting
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46
			up in the morning for Salatul Fajr, trust
		
00:01:46 --> 00:01:49
			me, tried and tested and I've repeated this
		
00:01:49 --> 00:01:53
			so many times, before the alarm, your eyes
		
00:01:53 --> 00:01:53
			open.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:54
			It's open.
		
00:01:55 --> 00:01:56
			And you can actually turn that alarm off
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58
			and say, Subhanallah, five minutes remaining.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:01:59
			Look at me, I'm awake.
		
00:01:59 --> 00:02:00
			Who woke you up?
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			It's the system of Allah and the mercy
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:04
			of Allah that you got up.
		
00:02:05 --> 00:02:05
			That's what it is.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:06
			That's the body.
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			So when you get your body used to
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:09
			something, it gets used to it.
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:12
			Learn to do the right thing.
		
00:02:12 --> 00:02:12
			You'll enjoy it.
