00:00:00 --> 00:00:03
			That's very interesting. My sister, I wanna tell
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:05
			you something. It's easy to say things. I
		
00:00:05 --> 00:00:07
			know of 2 opinions. I know of 2
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:08
			scholarly opinions.
		
00:00:08 --> 00:00:10
			Some will say, they're in *. Some will
		
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12
			say, well, you don't know where they're gonna
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:13
			go. I wanna tell you something
		
00:00:14 --> 00:00:14
			that's,
		
00:00:15 --> 00:00:16
			inshallah, will help you.
		
00:00:18 --> 00:00:20
			Do you believe Allah is just? Do you
		
00:00:20 --> 00:00:23
			believe Allah is kind? Do you believe Allah
		
00:00:23 --> 00:00:25
			is merciful? Do you believe Allah knows what
		
00:00:25 --> 00:00:28
			he's doing? Do you believe Allah has greater
		
00:00:28 --> 00:00:28
			mercy
		
00:00:29 --> 00:00:32
			than any one of us can have? Do
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:34
			you believe that Allah almighty
		
00:00:35 --> 00:00:38
			will always do the best? Leave it in
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:39
			the hands of Allah.
		
00:00:40 --> 00:00:42
			Have good hope and leave it in the
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:44
			hands of Allah. Keep trying with them and
		
00:00:44 --> 00:00:47
			inshallah, they will come. Who knows and even
		
00:00:47 --> 00:00:49
			if some of our folks have passed on
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:50
			Allah alone knows what's going to happen to
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:53
			them I know there there's evidence in the
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:54
			Quran that proves that if a person
		
00:00:55 --> 00:00:57
			if a person died in this way, then
		
00:00:57 --> 00:01:00
			hellfire is awaiting them. If a person died
		
00:01:00 --> 00:01:02
			in that way, then they're they're doomed and
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:05
			so on. Those are warnings from Allah, Subhanahu
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:07
			Wa Ta'ala, whether or not my folks or
		
00:01:07 --> 00:01:10
			your folks fall or I fall into the
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:12
			category is left for the day of judgment.
		
00:01:12 --> 00:01:14
			On that day, Allah will decide which category
		
00:01:14 --> 00:01:15
			they fall in, and why they fall into
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:17
			this way, and why not, and so on.
		
00:01:17 --> 00:01:20
			The deeper debate of
		
00:01:21 --> 00:01:23
			Exactly where they've gone right now or where
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:24
			they're gonna go and so on You know
		
00:01:24 --> 00:01:26
			what? Leave it for Allah Some people cannot
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:28
			navigate through it because there is a natural
		
00:01:37 --> 00:01:40
			disbeliever, she's your mother. Your father's your father.
		
00:01:40 --> 00:01:42
			Even if he's a disbeliever, yes, if he's
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:44
			harming you, you need to save yourself. But
		
00:01:44 --> 00:01:45
			that would be true even if he's a
		
00:01:45 --> 00:01:48
			Muslim, and he's harming you. So
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50
			there is that love for me to just
		
00:01:50 --> 00:01:51
			come to you and swipe at you and
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:53
			tell you, listen, he's in *. That's it.
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:56
			That's that's a bit of an insensitive way
		
00:01:56 --> 00:01:57
			of wording things.
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:00
			In fact, I'd rather be truthful to myself
		
00:02:00 --> 00:02:02
			and tell you, let's leave it to the
		
00:02:02 --> 00:02:03
			owner of the day of judgment
		
00:02:04 --> 00:02:05
			to judge. May Allah
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:08
			make it easy for us. It's a tough
		
00:02:08 --> 00:02:10
			one because we acknowledge what Allah has said
		
00:02:10 --> 00:02:13
			in the Quran. We acknowledge the punishment. We
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:13
			acknowledge
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:16
			that heaven and * exist. We acknowledge that
		
00:02:16 --> 00:02:19
			those who've disbelieved and rejected and so on,
		
00:02:19 --> 00:02:21
			whether or not they fall in the category,
		
00:02:21 --> 00:02:23
			leave it to Allah. Leave it to Allah.
		
00:02:23 --> 00:02:26
			Today, we have people easily telling, guys like
		
00:02:26 --> 00:02:27
			me,
		
00:02:27 --> 00:02:29
			this guy's a kafir. I've seen the other
		
00:02:29 --> 00:02:31
			day someone says this guy's a kafir, and
		
00:02:31 --> 00:02:32
			I just laugh it off because you know
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:34
			what? We're beyond the point where we're affected
		
00:02:34 --> 00:02:35
			by people's little,
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:38
			comments. You know? I'm thinking to to someone
		
00:02:38 --> 00:02:39
			said,
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:41
			this guy said this about you. I said,
		
00:02:41 --> 00:02:43
			firstly, who is the guy? Can you explain
		
00:02:43 --> 00:02:45
			to me who he is? What gives him
		
00:02:45 --> 00:02:46
			a qualification
		
00:02:47 --> 00:02:49
			to rule what's in my own heart?
		
00:02:50 --> 00:02:52
			What gives you a qualification to decide
		
00:02:53 --> 00:02:55
			what's in my heart? So if you don't
		
00:02:55 --> 00:02:57
			have a qualification to decide what's in my
		
00:02:57 --> 00:02:58
			heart, how can anyone of us
		
00:02:59 --> 00:03:01
			decide what's in the hearts of another person?
		
00:03:01 --> 00:03:03
			Who knows? Who knows? Allah alone knows. It's
		
00:03:03 --> 00:03:05
			a tough one, my sister. May Allah make
		
00:03:05 --> 00:03:07
			it easy for you and grant goodness and
		
00:03:07 --> 00:03:10
			ease and may Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala guide
		
00:03:10 --> 00:03:12
			your folks to the straightest path and may
		
00:03:12 --> 00:03:15
			Allah Almighty make them closer to Allah
		
00:03:16 --> 00:03:17
			than
		
00:03:17 --> 00:03:19
			you and I. I mean
