Mufti Menk – Ponder upon the creation

			Allah says, part of this taqwa is to constantly think about what Allah has created, how big Allah is
how the Creator is supreme. He is the deity he is the one and only. And that's why in verse number
190 191, of surah, Allah imraan, Allah tells us in a vehicle peace, it one of the one of the life in
layli, one harina only, and
		

			indeed in the creation of the skies and the earth and the rotation of the night and the day, they
are science for those with sound intellect, those who ponder those who remember Allah, and they
ponder over the creation of Allah, while they're standing or sitting or on their sides. They ponder,
they ponder over the greatness of Allah. So if you were to ponder over who you are, where you came
from, where you are right now, where you're going Subhana Allah and the creation of Allah, how
beautiful it is, how huge the creation of Allah is, it will really, really help you overcome a lot
of difficulty. So the point here is to remember Allah upon all conditions when you're standing, when
		

			you're sitting, when you're lying down when you're working. No matter what you're doing, keep your
tongue moist in the remembrance of Allah Karna Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Maya Kuru la
half equally, Gianni, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used to remember Allah during all his
times, all the time, he would remember a lot no matter what he was doing. So remember Allah and see
how you're competent. It's amazing. We are going through challenging times, and we will still go
through many different types of challenges. If one is resolved, another one will come Allah says,
that's the whole reason why we created you challenge after challenge. When a person goes to school,
		

			they expect exam after exam. And you know what if they did not have examinations, there would be
something wrong with that school. So Allah says at the end, like you're going to graduate, you're
going to graduate on the Day of Judgment Day based on how well you did with the exams we gave you in
your life and the tests and the challenges. And this is why Allah says, those who disbelieve when
we've given them, it doesn't mean that we're happy with them. Don't let that annoy you and don't let
that deceive you. They have provision for a short time you need to please Allah May Allah subhanho
wa Taala be pleased with every one of us.
